Xiao Tong glanced at Pei Youdao with disdain, when has this happened, this old boy has not forgotten to put gold on his face.

What else is there to be good to others, and what else is Tang Xiu thinks that the Pei family has occupied their ancestral home, and really thinks that others don't know what the Pei family has done in Taiyuan City all these years?

Hypocrisy!

However, Pei Youdao still has some truth in saying that the Pei family occupied the ancestral house of the Tang family by not very honorable means and robbed the Lingquan Ancient Well that originally belonged to the Tang family, and it was not impossible for Tang Xiu to have a grudge afterwards and want to wait for an opportunity to take revenge on the Pei family.

It's just that Tang Xiu would have that much courage? In broad daylight, there is no subtlety in the slightest that people rush to Pei's house to hurt people and destroy the well, even if their heads are squeezed by the door, they will not make such a stupid decision?

Xiao Tong was a little hesitant, but out of prudence, he still asked people to investigate Tang Xiu's behavior during this time, and included Tang Xiu in the scope of the suspect.

"Besides Tang Xiu, is there anyone else?" After sending people out, Xiao Tong asked Pei Youdao again.

Pei Youdao had stopped crying at this time, his mind was a little calmer, and when he heard Xiao Tong's question, he replied softly: "My lord should also know that since my Pei family got that unique ancient well, there have always been many people who secretly covet it, especially after the Pei family's vegetables were sold and the emperor ordered the imperial tribute, that ancient well has become a fragrant dumpling, and many people are very red-eyed, and they can't wait to replace my Pei family." ”

Xiao Tong nodded lightly, although Pei Youdao did not specify who it was, but his peers were enemies, and there were only a few households in Taiyuan City that were qualified and capable of making a mess for the Pei family.

However, these are just Pei Youdao's personal speculations, and before he gets the exact real evidence, although Xiao Tong is the Yin of Taiyuan Mansion, he can't judge it wantonly.

"Anything else?" Xiao Tong continued to ask.

Pei Youdao shook his head slowly: "I really can't think of anything else, it should be gone." ”

At this time, Wang Shaoyin, who went out to arrange the search task, came back, entered the main office, walked to Xiao Tong's side, lay down and whispered a few words next to Xiao Tong's side ear, and after that, Xiao Tong's gaze when he looked at Pei Youdao changed unexpectedly.

Suspicious, cold, and even a little resentful, seeing that Pei Youdao felt furious in his heart, he thought that Xiao Tong had discovered something.

"I don't know who sent out a piece of news about the Pei family in Taiyuan City this morning, and this government hopes to confirm it in front of the head of the Pei family." After staring at Pei Youdao for a while, Xiao Tong asked Pei Youdao softly with a cold face, "I heard that ......"

"Sir! Master! Oh no! Oh no......"

Xiao Tong's words were interrupted by a small guy who suddenly rushed in from outside, Xiao Tong turned his head unhappily, and saw that this little guy was full of sweat, and as soon as he entered the lobby, he panted vigorously, tired like a dead dog, and the reprimand to his mouth was taken back by him.

"Ah Lai, what's wrong, what's going on again?"

Seeing the person coming, Pei Youdao's complexion also changed, and a spirit jumped up from the chair and looked at the people in this mansion nervously.

"Master, it's burned, all the 100 acres of vegetable fields outside our city have been burned, the fire oil all over the ground, the scorched vegetable leaves everywhere, and the 100 acres of greens are all gone!"

"What?!"

Shocked by the bad news, Pei Youdao was so shocked that he squatted on the ground, and his tears began to fall down vigorously again, crying and muttering: "How can this be?" How so? Who did I Pei Youdao offend, and I would be subjected to such a tragic revenge, why, why?! ”

Yes, first the ancient well was destroyed, and now even the only vegetable field has been burned, why is this?

Xiao Tong looked at Pei Youdao's crying scene with a hesitant expression, the rumors he heard from Wang Shaoyin's mouth just now made him have a trace of doubt about Pei Youdao, if those rumors were true, Pei Youdao also had every motive to do so, destroy the well and burn the fields, and blame others, so as to get rid of the disaster that originally belonged to their Pei family.

Of course, this may also be the real culprit, and while successfully destroying the Pei family's vegetables, it will be difficult for the Pei family to gain a foothold in Taiyuan City.

It's just that now the only evidence has also been burned clean by the fire, no matter what the reason, at least in a short period of time, it is impossible to verify.

"The blue sky and the white day, arson and murder are really a great crime, and they are extremely bold!" Xiao Tong slapped the table suddenly, and commanded Wang Shaoyin in a loud voice: "Wang Shaoyin, you have worked hard to go again, and if you commit murder during the day, you will definitely not be so secretive, dig three feet into the ground, and the person who poisoned and set fire to the case will be arrested!" ”

Now the only hope is in those who committed the murder, as long as the person is caught, there is no worry about finding out the real culprit behind the scenes!

Things have developed to the present, this is not just a question of whether Xiao Tong can be promoted, under his rule, there was such a vicious poisoning and arson incident, although there was no death, but the impact is extremely bad, if the murderer cannot be arrested in a short time, the matter has spread to Chang'an, and he Xiao Tong will not think about going further in his life.

"This is someone who can't get along with me!"

Xiao Tong clenched his fists, his face was unprecedentedly ugly, and he was even more upset when he saw Pei Youdao still crying and pinching there, and directly waved his hand to Pei Wandao next to him: "You help the head of the Pei family to go back first, and when there is new progress in the case, the government will send someone over to spread the word, there is no need to stay here all the time." ”

"Yes, yes, there is Lord Lao Xiao!"

Pei Wan bowed and nodded, and the two of them stepped forward and walked out of the mansion together with Pei Youdao.

At this time, Pei's Mansion was already overcrowded.

As soon as they got the news of the Pei family's accident, the two shopkeepers of Dingxianglou and Changxiangge led people to block the door of Pei's mansion, Wang Shoucai and Li Sanxian all came to collect debts with the contract they had signed, they didn't care whether these things were done by the Pei family's opponents, or Pei Youdao himself shouted to catch the thief, anyway, the business of green vegetables was doomed, and they were more concerned about when the 100,000 yuan of liquidated damages would reach their hands.

That's how it is in business, there is only profit, no sympathy.

Since Pei Youdao dared to propose to sign such a large amount of contract with them, then he should give the corresponding amount of compensation now. After all, they also took a considerable risk when they signed the contract, and if they couldn't bear to be the first to breach the contract at that time, I believe Pei Youdao would definitely not be soft.

The only thing they are worried about now is whether the Pei family still has money to compensate them?

This time, no one came to Xiangmanlou, no need to ask to know, it must be Sun Mancang's old fox who got the money one step ahead of them, and they all saw it when Sun Mancang pulled out the vegetables in the morning, and the green vegetables were real evidence of breach of contract, but it was a pity that they didn't think of the joints at the beginning, otherwise why did they come to the door in such a hurry until now?

300,000 yuan of liquidated damages, Xiang Manlou has already taken 100,000 yuan, according to the Pei family's financial resources, can they still come up with another 200,000 yuan in cash?
