Wu Peng barely squeezed out a smile and said to this Zhao Gong: "Father-in-law, it's really a misunderstanding, that shopkeeper Chen has been unwell recently......

"Unwell...... "Father-in-law Zhao chuckled and said disdainfully: "According to the miscellaneous family, it doesn't look like he's unwell, but it looks like he has some heart disease." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Wu Peng smiled embarrassedly, if it was someone else, in order to avoid angering this Zhao Gonggong, it would be enough to arrange a few sentences along with his words, but the identity of this 'shopkeeper Chen' was too sensitive, so he naturally didn't dare to say anything, just laughed dryly.

Zhao Gonggong said coldly: "The miscellaneous family is not an unreasonable person, since the shopkeeper Wu has come to the door, the miscellaneous family can't turn you away today, you say, you came to find my father-in-law, what is the matter?" But have you found lawbreakers in the caravans, and let the miscellaneous families do you harm? ”

Wu Peng was anxious, cold sweat oozed from his forehead, and said: "No, no, Zhao Gonggong, I'm just afraid that the prefect's yamen has caught the wrong person, the caravan has always been cautious about the recruitment of personnel, presumably there must be some misunderstanding here, the villain is here as a guarantee, bring back the guys who were arrested, and ask Zhao Gong to be openly merciful......"

Gonggong Zhao's face darkened in an instant, and he slammed the case: "What do you mean by this, do you mean that the miscellaneous family took the wrong person and wronged your treasure caravan, and the miscellaneous family deliberately embarrassed you, right?" Misunderstand? You said that there were no outlaws in the caravan, but why did you find prohibited things such as guns and gunpowder in this warehouse, could it be that you did it on purpose, and that your caravan was quietly doing business with the Tile Thorns and Tatars? ”

Wu Peng was startled and hurriedly waved his hand: "No...... It's not ......"

Zhao Gonggong sneered again, and said: "This is not this, that is not either, could it be that this father-in-law sent someone to put it in and wronged you?" ”

"Not even more." Wu Peng, after all, has been in business for so many years, and he is bold when doing business, but when he faced the yamen, his courage was suddenly smaller than the tip of a needle, and Zhao Gonggong said left and right, almost scared him to death, and smiled bitterly: "Zhao Gonggong is not such a person, and the villain never has this meaning, the villain just said, there must be a misunderstanding here." Zhao Gonggong...... This time, Wu came and prepared a small gift......"

As he spoke, he took out a gift slip from his sleeve, barely squeezed out an ugly smile, and handed it over to the table where Zhao Gonggong's elbow was resting, this Zhao Gonggong just glanced at this gift list, this small profit is really not thin, densely filled with a blank piece of paper, I am afraid that the total will be worth at least three thousand taels of silver.

Zhao Gonggong smiled.

If it were someone else, give this big gift, according to Zhao's greedy surname, there would be no big deal.

It's just that this Zhao Gonggong knows in his heart that he can't accept the gift of Jubao Firm, compared to the goods that are forcibly sold to the eight surnames of Jubao Firm, what is this benefit, as long as the eight surnames are forced to sell the goods of Jubao Firm, he sits in Datong, and he can get tens of thousands of silver dollars of filial piety from the eight surnames every year, how can he afford such a little benefit.

He narrowed his eyes, his eyes were cold, and then he picked up the gift list, smiled at this Wu Pengsen, kneaded the gift list in his hand, and then tore it to pieces.

The shredded paper dipped in ink was sprinkled on the ground, and Zhao's father-in-law had already taken the case, roaring in his unique male duck voice: "Bold, you are a shopkeeper Wu, the miscellaneous family made an exception to see you today, and thought you were a businessman, but I never thought that you were this kind of person, what kind of person are you as a miscellaneous family, is it the kind of person who accepts your gifts and obeys your orders?" There is nothing wrong with corrupt officials and officials in this world, but the miscellaneous family has always been clean and self-conscious, always law-abiding, and all they think about is doing things for the emperor and serving the court. ”

He still seemed to feel unrelieved of his hatred, so he stood up, pointed at Wu Peng with his finger, and hissed: "Come, come on, take down this annihilation merchant surnamed Wu!" ”

When the little guy outside heard this, he didn't say a word, and immediately rushed in and took this Wu Peng.

Wu Peng was stunned all of a sudden, and hurriedly said, "Gonggong Zhao, what do you mean by this?" ”

Zhao Gonggong sneered at him, and said: "You ask the miscellaneous family what you mean, the miscellaneous family wants to ask what you mean, as the shopkeeper of the Jubao Firm, not only shielded the outlaws inside the caravan, but also gave such a big gift to bribe my father-in-law, the Treasure Firm is approved by the emperor, and it is also a special case of the imperial court to trade with the big dealership, you evil villain, you are actually doing such a thing in the name of the firm, come to someone, take this person down, beat dozens of boards!" ”

As soon as he gave the order, the minions under his head ignored Wu Peng's wail, and escorted this Wu Peng down.

Gonggong Zhao sat back on the chair, his face became extremely deep, sneered, called a confidant, and ordered slowly: "This surnamed Wu, send it back after being half dead, you wait a while, the miscellaneous family will write a letter, and you will send the surname Wu back with this letter." ”

After that, he asked someone to bring pen and ink, rolled up his sleeves to repair a book, handed it to the henchman, and said, "Go ahead." ”

………………………………………………………………………………………………………… Jubao firm, when this Wu Peng was injured and was carried back with a shelf, the firm was in a panic all of a sudden, and even some people had retreated, originally came to this firm to do things, thinking that the treatment here was not cheap, and besides, there are so many firms, there is also a place to shelter. But who knows, this is the first time to go to the goods, and they have encountered such a big trouble, the servants in Datong City seem to have a grudge against the treasure caravan, and they have wronged the caravan guys everywhere, and now not only the guys are suffering, but the shopkeeper of this hall Wu is this half-dead appearance, and after a while, many people have gone to resign.

And Wu Peng was also carried to the backyard, in the flower hall where Liu Cheng was in the wind.

This Wu Peng was beaten by the board, he was out of breath, Liu Chengfeng personally diagnosed his pulse, and when he let go of his pulse, his face was obviously relieved, and he didn't hurt his muscles and bones, presumably the dead eunuch surnamed Zhao didn't really want to put Wu Peng to death. It's just that it hurts some flesh and skin, raise it for a few days, take some good medicine, and take care of it.

Liu Chengfeng asked Wu Peng what happened, Wu Peng endured it and told everything about it, and finally Liu Chengfeng set his eyes on the letter from Zhao Gonggong.

Zhao Gonggong's handwriting is not bad, but between the lines, it is righteous and awe-inspiring, first said the important surname of the treasure firm, a meaning of one heart and one mind with the treasure firm, and then said, since there are outlaws in the treasure firm, as a town guard eunuch, he naturally can't sit idly by, in order to ensure the safety of the caravan, no matter what, you have to find out the black sheep in the treasure caravan, otherwise the treasure house is out of the customs, and something big will happen.

In the end, he changed his words, and said that this Wu Peng actually bribed himself when he was eliminating harm for the treasure caravan, but he was afraid that most of this person also had some collusion with those lawbreakers, but his identity was a little sensitive, Zhao Gonggong asked for a lesson first, and then sent him back, as for how to deal with this Wu Peng, the treasure firm looked at it himself.

Absolutely!

This Zhao Gonggong really came out of the palace, and the means of the whole person can be described as extremely sharp, even Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but be amazed, forbidding the caravan to go out of the customs, arresting the caravan guys everywhere, and beating the caravan guys half to death, but this dead eunuch surnamed Zhao not only did not feel guilty, but was justified, a posture that was all for the good of your treasure firm, one sentence for the good of the court, one sentence after another was for the palace to serve, and the words turned around, and he put on a tone of wearing the same pants as the treasure firm, but it was just, When he said this, no one could find fault at all, and even if the lawsuit reached the front of the emperor, no one could find fault with him.

Liu Chengfeng smiled bitterly and said, "The surname Zhao is a somewhat interesting person, and these methods of rectifying people are really clever." ”

Li Dongdong, who was standing on the side, said: "Master Hou is still interested in ridiculing at this time, now that everyone is injured like this, and the caravan doesn't know when it will be allowed to leave the customs, the top priority at the moment is to take care of things quickly, otherwise there will be endless disasters." ”

Liu Chengfeng was silent for a moment, and said lightly: "The treasure caravan is too disappointing, so let's give them a lesson today, let them know how to deal with this kind of thing in the future." But it's too late today, let's take care of this matter tomorrow, Mr. Li, why don't we play another game, come here, and take the shopkeeper Wu down to recuperate. ”

Li Dongdong stayed, the two asked someone to light the lamp, and set up the chess pieces in the study, Li Dongdong smiled slightly, and while playing with the chess pieces in his hand, he asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

Liu Chengfeng didn't speak, but played first, Li Dongdong also became serious, this Liu Chengfeng played chess, always like this, sharp, Li Dongdong was thinking about his heart, and he was almost in danger.

At this time, Liu Chengfeng suddenly raised his eyes, smiled at Li Dongdong, and said, "How to play chess, how to do it!" ”

This Li Dongdong was confused at first, but then he understood, and couldn't help laughing dumbly, and said: "If you are too reckless, you may not be able to succeed." ”

Liu Chengfeng put down a sunspot, looked at the chess game with his head down, and said: "Then please wait and see Mr. Li, the simpler the method, the most useful." ”
