Chapter Eighty-Four: Liu's Spending Method
It turned out that the article pointed to by Liu Hua was carefully marked with a brush, and it was clearly written that "anyone who runs a casino will be punished ten times according to the amount of gambling money." Seeing this, Mei Ling dared to blackmail Liu Hua, so she had to echo Liu Hua's amount: "The gambling money that was seized by the slave family was not 200,000 taels of silver, but 80,000 taels. ”
After hearing Mei Ling's answer, everyone, including Huang Baishan, was stunned, and Li Jianling looked at Mei Ling carefully: "Boss Mei, you have come here, don't have any scruples in your heart, rest assured, this official will make decisions for you, Liu Hua led those fast catchers, how much gambling money was stolen in the Treasure Pavilion?" ”
"Thank you, Lord Li, the slave family was indeed robbed of 80,000 taels of gambling money." After saying this, Mei Ling continued: "The Treasure Pavilion is not the property of the slave family, and today's matter, the slave family must report to the real owner.
In addition, the slave family also hopes that the government will treat everyone equally, in addition to our treasure pavilion in Yangzhou City, there are more than 20 casinos, this prefect's yamen will not only raid our family, right? ”
"Boss Mei, which casino do you want to raid, that's our government's business, don't worry about it." After saying this, after Liu Hua saw the sneer on Mei Ling's face, he also smiled: "But? Now that I've said that, I can also reveal a little bit about our future work trends, and we will supervise and observe the Treasure Pavilion in the next step, if necessary, today's events? Maybe it will happen again, Boss Mei should pay attention to it. ”
"Okay, since the vice president wants to compete with our Treasure Pavilion, the slave family has no choice but to accept it." As soon as the words fell, Mei Ling got up and said to Huang Baishan and Li Jianling: "Lord Prefect, Lord Tongzhi, the slave family has left first, and after the owner of the small shop comes to Yangzhou, the slave family is holding a banquet to entertain the two adults. ”
When Mei Ling turned around and passed in front of Liu Hua, a different smile appeared on her face: "Vice President Head Catcher, I hope that at this time tomorrow, you can still sit in this position, if the Vice President Head Catcher can't be done soon, welcome to apply for a job in the shop, where do I lack a door." ”
After saying this, Mei Ling left Huang Baishan's room. After Mei Ling left, Huang Baishan asked Li Jianling and the others to go back, and at the same time ordered Li Jianling to deal with Huang Ziqian's gambling.
When only Huang Baishan and Liu Hua were left in the room, Huang Baishan said with a sad face: "Liu Hua, you are in a big trouble, I didn't expect you to raid the casino, let alone take the Treasure Pavilion."
If you know this in advance, this government will definitely try its best to stop you, as far as this government knows, the owner behind the Treasure Pavilion is the second son of Qi Shangshu of the Criminal Department, and now that you have raided the Treasure Pavilion, I am afraid that the prince of Qi will not give up.
Although you did not enter the fourth master's door, but because of the recommendation of Lianggong, you are more or less involved in some things with the fourth master, if you change to someone else, this government will come forward to protect you, but if Qi Gongzi comes to Yangzhou to ask for guilt, please forgive this government for not being able to help.
Because Qi Shangshu is a close confidant of His Royal Highness the Prince, the fourth master has been paying tribute to His Royal Highness over the years, so Lianggong and I will not have a stiff relationship with Qi Shangshu because of you, fortunately, your nine-grade fast grade is the holy one.
You go back and prepare first, if you do copy more of the gambling money in the Treasure Pavilion, return it to the other party quickly.
Alas...... Unexpectedly, the first action of your police station, he stabbed the hornet's nest, and finally ended in failure, the 80,000 taels of gambling money, the government withheld it, and if such a thing happened, it was more appropriate to hand over the gambling money to the national treasury. ”
Originally, Liu Hua still wanted to give Huang Baishan a secret, but after listening to Huang Baishan's words just now, Liu Hua felt very uncomfortable in his heart, he could feel that he was a dispensable chess piece in Huang Baishan's eyes.
After listening to Huang Baishan's words in his heart, Liu Hua became more determined to form his own power, and after a moment of silence, Liu Hua pretended to sigh and said: "I did only confiscate about 80,000 taels of gambling money.
In a casino like Treasure Pavilion, there is no regret about the lowly inspection, even if the true identity of the boss behind the Treasure Pavilion is known before, he will still make the same choice. Let's not talk about it for now, I'll go back and prepare, if Qi Gongzi comes to me to settle accounts, I have a countermeasure. After saying this, Liu Hua bowed his hand to Huang Baishan and said goodbye.
Looking at Liu Hua's figure when he left, Huang Baishan couldn't help but sigh: "Alas...... It's a pity that it's a good seedling. ”
After returning to Liu's Mansion, Shen Jiaolin and others all surrounded him, Tong Zhen also came here in advance to wait, after seeing Liu Hua, Tong Zhen couldn't wait to ask, "How is it?" What did the prefect say? Is there any blame for you? ”
Hearing Tong Zhen's first words, he was worried about his own safety, Liu Hua was a little moved in his heart, and hesitated, he said everything that happened in Huang Baishan's room and what Huang Baishan said to him.
Those fast catchers, including Tong Zhen, were all stunned when they heard that the behind-the-scenes boss of the Treasure Pavilion was actually the second son of the Shangshu family of the Criminal Department, and everyone looked at each other and suddenly fell into silence.
Keeping everyone's expressions in his eyes, Liu Hua said in a deep voice: "Brothers, you all know the current situation, I am here waiting for Qi Gongzi to come to punish the crime, if you dissociate yourself from me now, everything will still be in time, otherwise, you will all be implicated." ”
"Vice President Catcher, what do you mean by that? Who do you think of us? It's a big deal, a few brothers shouldn't catch this quickly, what's there? Although I haven't been a soldier under you for a long time, my brothers feel very happy.
The experience of these few days is better than the previous ten years of my brothers, don't worry, if you want to punish the crime, we will punish the crime together, and no one will leave you. After hearing Liu Hua's words, the big cow urn said angrily.
Immediately afterwards, the rest of the arresters also spoke out one after another, saying that they would not leave the police station and would be punished together with Liu Hua, Tong Zhen even offered to help Liu Hua replace the crime, seeing this, Liu Hua's heart was full of warmth and feeling.
"Xie Lu and Brother Xie have supported it, everyone can rest assured, we won't have anything, hehe...... I was kidding you just now, now the court is purging corruption, if Qi Gongzi dares to come here to find trouble with me, I will go directly to the Thirteenth Master to complain, although Qi Shiwu is the secretary of the Criminal Department, but the Criminal Department really has the final say. ”
After saying this, Liu Hua turned his gaze to Shen Jiaolin: "Now that we have money, think about how to spend this money?" Jiao Lin, you take out 30,000 taels of silver tickets, and then exchange them for 500 taels of silver, and all the brothers who participate in this action will be rewarded with 500 taels of silver each.
In addition, I am taking out a sum of money, inviting someone to come and decorate our office space, overhauling it inside and out, rebuilding some side houses, and finding someone to design some institutions by the way, I want to make this the safest place in the world.
By the way, I will buy the vacant land next to our house, and build a large stable there, so that each of the brothers will have a horse, and then we will have to increase our strength, and then the horses will have to be cared for and fed by our own people.
The rest of the things, you look at the purchase, including clothes, torture equipment, interrogation equipment, this time all the purchase, and then see how much money is left? I figured out what to do with the rest of the money. ”
After hearing this, Shen Jiaolin said a little helplessly: "Your method of spending money is really extravagant, according to your ideas, budget according to your ideas, except for the silver taels that reward everyone, the remaining ones need at least 150,000 taels of silver."
In other words, if all the 70,000 taels of silver are put in, you have to find a way to get another 80,000 taels of silver, of course, if you don't build a new side house, don't buy that vacant land, and don't build a stable, the 70,000 taels of silver will be enough to spend. ”
As soon as he heard this, Liu Hua felt a headache again: "I'm ...... Do you have to get some money? ”
