Chapter 321: Arrest
At night, it is as quiet as water. Welcome to Reading //
The Jin-Shaanxi Guild Hall is a very large building complex, but all the Jin-Shaanxi merchants who came to Zhangjiakou to do business lived here. Compared with ordinary inns, this place is more convenient and more suitable for them to live
Unlike ordinary businessmen, the eight treasurers of the Jinshan Chamber of Commerce have their own courtyards here. Although the eight people are known as the eight treasurers of the Jinshan Chamber of Commerce, the Jinshan Chamber of Commerce is just an alliance-like organization, and each of the eight treasurers has their own business. If you really want to talk about cooperation, the eight people will also cooperate in that matter.
On the night of August 15, the Jin Chamber of Commerce was different from every year, there were no warm activities, and every courtyard was very quiet. Many people go to bed early, and they are already aware of the seriousness of the problem, so they understand that they must be calm at this time.
In the hall of the Jinshan Guild Hall, the eight shopkeepers gathered together, and they were not celebrating the festival, but discussing something.
"Could it be that this time it has something to do with us? Last time, the Longchang business was thundering and raining, and I felt that there was a problem. Tonight's curfew is also very weird, I'm afraid something big is going to happen. Tian Shenglan glanced at the people sitting around and said in an anxious tone.
The people in the hall looked at each other, no one spoke, and all of them looked at Fan Yongdou, who was sitting on the main seat. Obviously, in such a turbulent time, these people still feel that Fan Yongdou is the most reliable.
Gently putting down the teacup in his hand, Fan Yongdou said helplessly: "No matter what the reason is, the siege of Zhangjiakou is a big matter in the imperial court. Whether it is Fang Zhixian or Chen Zongbing. They don't know much. This time he came to Zhangjiakou was Luo Sigong, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, which shows that the imperial court attaches great importance to this matter. Now we are sitting in the lonely city. What can we do? Even if we want to pull people back, we don't have a place to find someone. ”
After listening to Fan Yongdou's words, the people in the hall looked at each other a few times, and Wang Dayu hesitated and asked, "Are we just waiting for death?" Is there really nothing to think about? ”
"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided! What we did was originally a knife deal, and we wanted to wash our hands after a few years, but now it's too late to quit. Wang Dengku, who was sitting on the side, smiled bitterly and said helplessly.
"We're just businessmen. Although I have dealings with many adults, the usual amount of silver is only a lot more every year. But at this time, I'm afraid no one will do anything for us, after all, the matter of Liaodong is right in front of us! Tian Shenglan obviously understood the situation of his people better, and said calmly.
"Shopkeeper, someone smashed the door, it's Jinyiwei!" A few people still want to say something. The servant guarding the door ran in briskly, and said with a frightened face. Don't talk about them, even those officials in the court, if there are brocade guards coming to the door, their hearts will tremble.
The people in the hall were all stunned, and as soon as the hands of several people who held the teacups loosened, the teacups fell to the ground and shattered. Before they could react. The two teams of brocade guards had already rushed in one left and one right, each holding an embroidered spring knife in their hands, looking at the people in the room with expressionless faces.
Behind these brocade guards, a man wearing the official uniform of the brocade guards walked in slowly. The waist card on the waist is not blocked, and there are four big characters on it: Beizhen Fusi.
See these four words. Several people in the hall became trembling all over, for this yamen. They were really frightened.
"Ladies and gentlemen, in Xia Jinyi Wei Qianhu Danghan, please follow me! There are some things I want you to say. If you cooperate obediently, you will not be in any danger. Dang Han looked at a few people with a smile and said in a soft tone.
"My lord, I don't know what it's like to bring us all back?" Fan Yongdou quickly came back to his senses, stood up and saluted Dang Han, and said respectfully.
Slowly walked to Fan Yongdou's side, and said with a smile on his face: "You are all wine bags and rice bags for Jinyi guards?" The Lord who eats and does not work? We know everything you do, and we know exactly what you've done! ”
Looking at Dang Han hard, Fan Yongdou's face became very ugly, but he still said in a deep voice: "The little one doesn't know what crime he has committed, please make it clear!" ”
With his hands behind his back, he slipped left and right beside Fan Yongdou, and Dang Han said in a deep voice: "In the hands of the Beizhen Mansion Division, there is still no truth to be told, I don't know what crime you want?" If I can, I'll accommodate your request. ”
"I didn't do anything, why should I confess?" Although Fan Yongdou was apprehensive in his heart, there was no expression on his face.
"Whether you are guilty or not, what you say doesn't count, what crime does our Beizhen Mansion want you to commit, then you are what crime." Dang Han didn't seem to be in a hurry, just looking at Fan Yongdou and the others here, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, obviously with a look of indifference.
Fan Yongdou seemed to want to say something more, but suddenly there was a huge noise outside, the crying of children, the screams of women, and the pleading of men. For a while, the entire Jinshan Hall was caught in a sea of sounds, but it didn't make people think about it.
"My lord, what are you going to do?" Fan Yongdou looked straight at Dang Han and said in a trembling voice.
Looking at the people who walked in outside, Dang Han said with a smile: "You can do it for him, I'm just responsible for arresting you." ”
With Dang Han's words, a man walked in outside, also wearing the military uniform of a thousand households. However, this person is different, this person is Liu Fenghua, the commander of the East Factory.
"I really didn't expect that these people are all here, it seems that your errands are very leisurely." Liu Fenghua looked around the room and said to Dang Han on the side with a smile.
"How's your preparations? How many people were arrested in total? Dang Han seemed to be in a good mood, and said to Liu Fenghua with a smile.
Shaking his head slightly, Liu Fenghua said with a smile: "There are not many people, there are sixty-four men, a few are merchants who moved in, there are about six, and the rest are all servants." As for the female dependents and children, there are no statistics, they are all here anyway. Are we going to bring these people back, but the adults will put them in jail! ”
"Let's go! It's all done, and there's no one to take care of here! Smiling at Liu Fenghua, Dang Han turned his gaze to his subordinates to the side, and ordered loudly: "Bring everyone who is seated, don't treat the guests slowly!" Let people surround this place, and when it dawns tomorrow, copy this place! ”
"Yes, sir!" The brocade guard on the side replied respectfully.
"My lord, we don't seem to have been convicted yet, why did we copy here?" Fan Yongdou turned his head back to look at Dang Han and said loudly.
Slowly walking to Fan Yongdou's side, Dang Han patted his face lightly, and said with a smile: "In the hands of the Beizhen Mansion Division, there is no guilt and guilt, and it is not easy to come up with it." After a deep groan, Dang Han whispered to a few people who were mourning: "Actually, we are not for you, and there is no way to arrest you." If you can cooperate with us, you may be safe. If we don't answer our purpose, we can't say anything. ”
"Lao Tzu has already sold his life to Lord Yama, what can you do with Lao Tzu?" A person who was supported by two brocade guards shouted loudly at Dang Han, his face flushed, and said loudly.
Slowly walking in front of the person, Dang Han said with a smile: "What do you call this person?" There are a lot of people who fall into the hands of the Beizhen Governor, but there are not many who can have the backbone like you! ”
"Lao Tzu Xing doesn't change his name, he doesn't change his surname, Huang Yunfa in Datong Mansion, Shanxi!" The man also seemed to be out of the way, staring straight at Dang Han with his eyes, and said in a rather disdainful tone.
Nodding slowly, Dang Han said to a person who was following him, "Is there a secret file of this person?" ”
"Back to my lord, we have the secret files of the eight people here." The man looked at Dang Han flatteringly, and said in a respectful tone.
"Let's talk about it! I'd love to know where this person came from. Dang Han glanced at Huang Yunfa with an unchanged face, and said in a flat voice.
The man groaned slightly, cleared his throat and said, "Huang Yunfa, born in the eighth year of Wanli, is from Datong, Shanxi. lost his father since he was a child, and his mother brought him up on festivals, and the mother and son were lonely. Since he was a child, Huang Yunfa has learned how to make money, as long as he can make money, no matter what method he uses, he will do it, in order to make his mother suffer less. ”
Sighing softly, Dang Han said with emotion: "Creation makes people, and he is also a bitter child, but since he has money, why can't he do business well?" ”
"Adults don't understand, there are some things that are hard to stop as long as they are done! Huang Yunfa's death is not a pity, and I hope that adults will not implicate my mother. My mother is already in her sixties, so let her spend her old age in peace! Huang Yunfa seemed to think of his old mother, and his tone softened a lot when he spoke.
Snorted coldly, Liu Fenghua on the side said with disdain: "Retirement? Your mother pulled you up with hard work, but what is filial piety in return? Now that you let the old man send the white-haired person to the black-haired person, how do you let her live for the rest of her life? If the news spreads, your mother may not be able to survive in Datong. ”
Glancing at Dang Han, Liu Fenghua said helplessly: "Dang Qianhu, these words are still being said during the interrogation!" Now all we have to do is hurry away and leave with our results. ”
Taking a deep look at Huang Yunfa, Dang Han nodded cautiously, Luo Sigong was still waiting for himself and the others to go back, time was precious and couldn't be delayed!
The group pressed the captured people and walked towards the magistrate's yamen, where the old house was ready.
