"Dong Youcai, you tell your father, where is Liu Renjin's batch of silk going to be sold?" Seeing that Liu Zhang was speechless, Li Yuntian couldn't help but sneer, turned around and asked Dong Youcai, who was sweating profusely, and glared at him with a cold expression.

Dong Youcai's face suddenly became more ugly when he heard this, his lips were white, his face was bloodless, and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

He never imagined that Li Yuntian knew everything about the government affairs of Cochin, and he told the population of the southern part of Thanh Hoa Mansion in one bite, and he believed that Li Yuntian was not just talking, and the household officials in the lobby must have brought an archive of the population of Cochin Thanh Hoa Mansion.

What is particularly critical is that, as Li Yuntian said, due to the limited economic level of the local area of Jiaozhi, even the total amount of silk consumed by the entire Qinghua Mansion in a year will not exceed 20,000 taels of silver, and Liu Ren's purchase of 50,000 taels of silver at a time is not at all reasonable.

Dong Youcai also wanted to quibble, and insisted that Liu Ren had indeed entered the batch of silk, but in the face of Li Yuntian's sharp gaze, he felt as if his throat was blocked, and he couldn't even say half a word, after all, Li Yuntian had cleanly exposed the lies between him and Liu Zhang's before, and subconsciously he had already developed a fear of Li Yuntian.

"Jiaozhi is a poor and wild place, I heard that a few people are so poor that they wear a pair of pants, and the silk of 50,000 taels of silver is indeed enough for Liu Ren to sell for several years!"

"Zhenguo Gong actually exempted Jiaozhi from the commercial tax for three years, so how can it be arbitrary?"

"Liu Zhang's family doesn't seem to have been to Qinghua City, otherwise how could he even be wrong about the number of stone statues located at the door of his house!"

"It seems that the town of the country to raise the commercial tax so high is also a helpless move, as the saying goes, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, Jiaozhi is in a hurry, if there is no tax, how to build?"

"The people of the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce are usually humble and have done a lot of good deeds, I don't believe them to bully others!"

……

Seeing that Dong Youcai was speechless under Li Yuntian's questioning, the people outside the hall suddenly became commotion, and they were talking in a low voice.

Obviously, Dong Youcai, as a housekeeper, must assist Liu Ren in doing business, but he didn't even know the sales of that batch of silk under Li Yuntian's questioning, and the people on the scene naturally suspected that this silk business was made up.

Even the three officials of the Three Law Divisions who were hearing in the lobby couldn't help but whisper to each other, in their opinion, the facts of the case were already very clear by now, and Liu Ren was undoubtedly falsely accusing Li Yuntian.

After hearing the discussion of the people outside the hall, Liu Zhang, whose face was bloodless, suddenly came back to his senses, looking at the scene in front of him with a blank expression, her mind was blank, she didn't know why the situation had developed to this point, just before she had the upper hand.

"Lord Qingtian, the Duke of Zhenguo is as clever as a spring, how can a weak woman of the people argue with the Duke of Zhenguo."

Then, Liu Zhangshi bit his lip vigorously, and said sharply to Zhao Muyu behind the desk with a somewhat hideous expression, "The folk woman heard that the husband of the folk woman once said that he had a way to make a fortune so much silk, otherwise how could there be those tax seals, but because this matter was quite risky, he didn't sue others." Please ask the eldest man to be the master of the people's wife, and give justice to the husband of the people's wife. ”

Zhao Muyu's brows suddenly frowned slightly when he heard this, he didn't answer Liu Zhang, who was already a little hysterical, but just looked at her with a cold expression, with a hint of pity in his eyes, this stupid woman still didn't realize that the situation in the hall had been controlled by Li Yuntian, and any of her quibbles were in vain.

After hearing Liu Zhang's reason, the people outside the hall were in an uproar.

At this moment, everyone can see that Liu Zhang's is arguing with strong words, if such a big business is done, Liu Ren will definitely not complete it alone, and will definitely use Dong Youcai to deal with related matters, so how can Dong Youcai not know? Everyone still understands this common sense.

"Liu Zhang, you are not immortal if you don't reach the Yellow River, since this is the case, my father will convince you." Li Yuntian saw that Liu Zhang's posture of stubborn resistance was stubborn, so he sneered, turned to look at the household officials standing aside, "Have you brought the tax seal and seal of the household department?" ”

"Yu Guogong, it has been brought." Hearing this, the two officials of the household department hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to Li Yuntian, each holding a black wooden box in their hands.

"Sue sù Bengong, how many tax seals are on file for Jiaozhi to the household department?" Li Yuntian bowed his head slightly when he heard this, and asked quietly.

"Yu Guogong, a total of 100 copies." The two household officials, who were neutral on the left side, heard the words and replied in a deep voice.

"You go and check whether those sealed letters were printed by the Jiaozhi government." Li Yuntian then stretched out his hand and pointed to the tax seals brought by Dong Youcai on the desk, and said with a stern expression.

"Yes!" The official with the national character face bowed to Li Yuntian, walked quickly to the desk, put the black wooden box in his hand on the table, and carefully examined the tax seals.

"Yu Guogong, these seals were indeed printed by the Jiaozhi government." Soon after, under the concerned gaze of everyone at the scene, the national-faced official put down the tax seals in his hand and replied solemnly.

With a bang, there was a commotion at the scene, and everyone couldn't help but look at each other, whispering in private, and their eyes showed a look of shock.

After experiencing the previous events, people thought that the tax seal letter brought by Dong Youcai was fake, but who would have thought that it would be true, wouldn't this prove that Liu Zhang's family had indeed been to Qinghua City?

"Please ask Lord Qingtian to make the decision for the people's women, and give justice to the husbands of the people's women." Liu Zhang's face, who was highly nervous, was suddenly overjoyed when he heard this, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and hurriedly said loudly to Zhao Muyu at the right time.

A puzzled look appeared on Zhao Muyu's face, and he looked at Li Yuntian who was standing there with a normal expression in disbelief, he didn't understand why Li Yuntian made such a stupid move, didn't he give Liu Zhang a chance to turn over.

The three officials of the Three Law Divisions were also confused at this time, wouldn't Li Yuntian shoot himself in the foot with a stone when he made such a move?

"Don't worry, Lord Zhao will definitely give you a 'justice'!" To everyone's surprise, in the face of this "tricky" situation in front of him, Li Yuntian still looked calm, glanced coldly at Liu Zhang, who was happy, and then turned to the remaining household officials who were standing on the side of the lobby, "Which of you went to Jiaozhi to check taxes last year?" ”

"Yu Guogong, it's the lower officials and others." Soon, the three officials stood out of the queue and bowed to Li Yuntian in unison.

Although the Ming Dynasty implements a tax system in which the central and local governments separate taxes, the Ministry of Household Affairs has to supervise and verify the tax revenues in various localities.

"Go and see if those letters were sent by the government." Li Yuntian stretched out his hand and pointed to the tax seal letter brought by Dong Youcai on the desk, and said in a deep voice.

"Yes!" When the three household officials heard this, they did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly stepped forward to check the tax seals.

When they saw the tax letters, they all had a look of surprise on their faces, and they were talking in a low voice as they looked at them, as if they had encountered something that surprised them, which immediately attracted the people, and the people outside the hall fell silent again.

"Yu Guogong, these seals are not issued by the Jiaozhi government." Finally, under the eager gaze of the people, the three household officials stopped talking, and one of them, a tall and thin official, bowed to Li Yuntian in a deep voice.

Rumble! The people at the scene suddenly fell into a commotion again, buzzing and talking there, no one could have imagined that things would be reversed one hundred and eighty degrees, and these three household officials actually came to a conclusion completely opposite to that of the official with the face of the national character.

Zhao Muyu was also confused, and didn't understand why the two groups of household officials had diametrically opposite conclusions, but he vaguely felt that Li Yuntian's move must have a deep meaning.

"Lord Qingtian, the public power of the town is powerful, and even the officials of the household department help him, please ask the lord to be the master of the people's women." Liu Zhang was also stunned by the scene in front of him, and he didn't know what kind of medicine Li Yuntian was selling in his gourd, so he shouted loudly while kowtowing to Zhao Muyu, wanting to give the outside world the impression that Li Yuntian was bullying.

"Liu Zhang's family, this guild will tell you why the subordinate officials of the household department will come to different conclusions about those tax seals, but before that, this guild must first prove that you have not been in Qinghua City at all!" Li Yuntian smiled disdainfully when he heard this, the more stubborn Liu Zhang's resistance was, the more he was given the opportunity to show the true case to the outside world.

"Oh?" Hearing this, Zhao Muyu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he was very curious about what method Li Yuntian could use to prove that Liu Zhang's had lied before.

"Are you responsible for the household registration of Cochin?" Under Zhao Muyu's gaze with interest, Li Yuntian turned to the two remaining household officials in the lobby.

"Yu Guogong, it is we who are responsible for the household registration of Jiaozhi." Hearing this, two household officials bowed to Li Yuntian and replied, one of the round-faced officials holding a black box in his hand.

"Did you bring the door plate sample of Cochin?" Li Yuntian glanced at the black box in the round-faced official's hand and asked in a deep voice.

"Grandpa Guo, the lower officials have already brought." Hearing this, the round-faced official raised the black box in his hand and replied in a loud voice.

"Show the sample cards inside to the adults here." Li Yuntian bowed slightly when he heard this, and gave instructions to the round-faced official.

The round-faced official immediately opened the black box in his hand, took out the pieces of wooden, palm-sized rectangular door numbers inside and handed them to Zhao Muyu and the three officials of the Three Law Divisions for trial.

Liu Zhangshi looked at the scene in front of her with a puzzled expression, the look on her face was extremely nervous, after the previous incident, she was already jealous of Li Yuntian, and felt that Li Yuntian would not let those officials from the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Industry come over for no reason, but it was still unclear which link went wrong, so that Li Yuntian grabbed the handle.

"The bold Liu Zhang clan actually blatantly lied and slandered Zhenguo Gong in court, which is really hateful!" Just when the people outside the hall were whispering about what method Li Yuntian would use to expose Liu Zhang's lies, Zhao Muyu, who had checked the door plate sample in his hand, suddenly changed his face, stretched out his hand and slapped the shocked wood heavily, and shouted to the nervous Liu Zhang's with a fierce expression.
