In the afternoon, the yamen of Dali Temple was peaceful.

In the office lobby, the officials of Dali Temple, who were full of food and drink in the canteen and took a nap on their seats, gave full play to their hands-on ability, and slept on the table and chair with different expressions.

At a glance, the thin blankets and soft pillows brought from home, and even one or two old cloth seam cats and dogs that have long been mixed with them, almost crowded the entire lobby.

Zhen Shiyuan, who was full of anger, pursed his lips, and temporarily suppressed the scolding that was about to blurt out: I almost forgot that at this time, it was when this group of rabbit cubs finished eating in the canteen and returned to their seats to take a nap.

It is true that these Dali Temple officials have a lot of words, but they are always facing these old faces, and the things that should be said have already been said almost, and they are not new, so it is important to rest.

Zhen Shiyuan twisted his brows, looked at the officials who brought such "important things" to take a nap, and couldn't help but snort lightly: Some people really look at the tall and big people, but they didn't expect to learn to take a nap with such things.

Without making a sound to wake up a group of officials who were taking a nap in the lobby, Zhen Shiyuan glanced at Xu Hexiu behind him, and led him out of the lobby to the house where he worked.

The moment he walked out of the lobby, Zhen Shiyuan couldn't help but scold angrily: "This Yuanheng Qianzhuang is really arrogant, it simply doesn't take my Dali Temple in his eyes......"

Xu and Xiu nodded again and again, the loss of going to Yuanheng Qianzhuang today can make the two of them feel aggrieved, and they finally returned to Dali Temple after enduring all the way and were about to have a seizure, but the group of colleagues in Su Ri were taking a nap, and they really didn't even have a place to vent.

"Yes, my lord, I think there must be a ...... behind this Yuanheng Money Village" The two complained and kicked open the door of Zhen Shiyuan's office hall.

There are no seizures in the lobby, and this place of Lord Zhen should be able to make the two of them scold happily.

With the warmth of the room, mixed with the aroma of fried chicken, the girl sitting in the room was looking at the two of them with a surprised face.

looked at each other, Zhen Shiyuan and Xu Hexiu were also stunned.

I almost forgot: she took leave to go out to play for a few days and went back to the yamen on an errand.

The girl held a chicken leg with two bites in one hand and a dossier in the other, and just looked at them.

The fragrance wafting from the air poured into his nose, and his stomach screamed in cooperation.

I had a big fire before, and I was full of gas, but I really forgot to eat, and now all the worms in my body that were hooked by the smell of these roasted chickens and fried food ran out, and I couldn't take it back.

Zhen Shiyuan and Xu Hexiu stopped the previous topic in unison, walked in, and then walked in front of the girl. There were several files on the small table, and she had always read them as a notebook, which was not surprising. The eyes of the two of them only lingered for a moment, and then turned to the side: three neatly placed white jade porcelain plates, one with cut roast chicken, one with fried pork ribs and meat strips, and the last one with some fried sweet potato plum sticks, and in front of the three large white jade porcelain plates were some small plates with dipping sauces, and the powder sauce should be complete.

"You're really going to enjoy it!" Zhen Shiyuan glanced at the girl, not missing the powder sauce near the corner of her mouth.

Look at the book, eat fried food, the charcoal basin in the house is burning warm, and the group of people with cloth cats and dogs in the lobby are obviously not at the same level compared to the one in front of them.

According to the powder sauce at the corner of her mouth, Zhen Shiyuan grabbed two fried pork ribs and dipped them in the corresponding powder sauce and ate them, and talked to her while eating: "How is it?" How about playing with Dr. Feng? The day before yesterday, the things in your Hibiscus Garden were all in trouble, and I heard that after King Zhao went down to the court, he punished the Changshi family. ”

It seems that this little thing has stopped, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is just the beginning. I'm afraid that the Zhaowang Mansion is about to start to do something against the most ferocious people who are jumping up and down the court.

Of course, it's their business to do it, as long as they don't cause murder, it has nothing to do with their Dali Temple.

Xu Hexiu also ate it in the same way, and the crispy fried pork ribs couldn't help but shout "good" as soon as they entered the mouth, and sometimes, I really have to admit that some people in this world are so talented that they are unusual, as if God prefers them. I don't know where Master Joe got these ideas about eating.

The two of them first grabbed two pieces and tasted them, and then simply moved two chairs, sat down opposite the girl's table, and talked to her while eating.

"That's it!" Speaking of the past few days of leave, Qiao Ran smiled and didn't say much.

The matter of Furong Garden can't be hidden, but there is no need to say it again, and she has no plans to talk about Lishan for the time being.

After talking about what she had done in the past few days, Qiao Ran looked at Zhen Shiyuan and Xu Hexiu, who were eating her openly, and said, "It's you two, aren't things going well in Yuanheng Qianzhuang?" The gloom between the eyebrows and eyes of these two people was about to leak out, she hadn't forgotten the action of these two people kicking the door with their feet, obviously they were angry outside, and they came back to vent.

"It went well, it went so well that I couldn't believe it!" Before she asked, Xu Hexiu spoke, he grabbed a handful of fried plum sticks and stuffed them into his mouth, and said hatefully, "Yuanheng Qianzhuang is very cooperative, and when we brought people over, he opened the basement to show us, and it was indeed stuffed with a lot of gold and silver treasures." ”

When Qiao Ran heard this, she was surprised: "This basement is very big? ”

"No, it's small." Xu Hexiu shook his head, "Clear-eyed people know that Yuanheng Qianzhuang can't just have this money. ”

"Then why did you two react like that?" Qiao Ran looked at the expressions of the two of them and felt even more strange.

Zhen Shiyuan snorted and asked Qiao Ran: "Have you ever seen a scoundrel?" ”

Who hasn't seen a scoundrel? Qiao Ran thought for a moment and said with a smile: "What? Don't recognize this Yuanheng Qianzhuang? ”

"He was willing to admit it, but no one came to sue him!" Zhen Shiyuan snorted coldly as he spoke, "The shopkeeper on his face smiled and said that he Yuanheng Qian Zhuang had received this money, and he could also wait for the depositor to withdraw it at any time." If anyone thinks that this number is wrong, they can go to the yamen and sue him! ”

Qiao Ran pinched the cold chicken leg in his hand and was slightly stunned, and after a pause, he said thoughtfully: "Most of the money that will choose to be deposited in Yuanheng Qianzhuang is not visible, and on the premise of not shaking the foundation, I am afraid that no one will really sue him." ”

If the money had seen the light, most people would have deposited it in a serious bank.

"Even if there are one or two who sue him, he has enough money in his treasury." Zhen Shiyuan shook his head as he spoke, "It's useless!" "For example, this time Mrs. Xu told Lord Xu about the private money, it is enough to take it from the basement casually, and there is no need to worry about these at all.

Qiao Ran was silent: "So, what the lord means is that if you can gather everything, no, most of the guests who have deposited money in Yuanheng Qianzhuang come to sue together, and find that the number of Yuanheng Qianzhuang does not match, you can check his accounts openly." ”

Going around such a big circle, wanting to move Yuanheng Qianzhuang was originally caused by the death of a small servant, and the seal of Yuanheng Qianzhuang is still left with Zhen Shiyuan at the moment.

The reason why Zhen Shiyuan wanted to move Yuanheng Qianzhuang was also to check the accounts of Yuanheng Qianzhuang, and then know the relationship behind this seal. You know, Xie Yi is still in prison right now!

Xu Hexiu's face was not very good-looking: God knows how his mother suddenly became interested in investigating the case, not only that, but also urged him to work hard to solve the matter before the year, and even did not hesitate to sue his father to Dali Temple, when he knew the news, he was eating at home, and almost didn't squirt out the food in his mouth.

Now that the Chinese New Year is only half a month away, it is not difficult for a strong man to solve this matter within half a month?

The room fell silent, except for the sound of nibbling ribs.

Qiao Ran looked at the two people who were "angry" and gnawed on the ribs opposite, was silent for a moment, and said, "Isn't there a way for Dali Temple to directly check the accounts?" ”

"If you can check it directly, why does it take so much work?" Zhen Shiyuan hated and said, "The reason for the Dali Temple is to borrow Mrs. Xu's reason, and this reason is not a big deal, the law of Dachu is strict, if it is an ordinary money village, I want to take people to do it directly, but it is just to punish a person one by one or something, but I brought people over today, only to know that this Yuanheng money village has the endorsement of the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce." ”

This is also where he did not calculate, you know, he was already willing to cut the meat and was ready to be punished, but he was stopped at the door because of an endorsement from the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce.

Chang'an Chamber of Commerce! Qiao Ran's expression was slightly awe-inspiring, when she helped Master Qiao enter the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce before, she also entered the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce once, but at that time, she just scratched the skin of the Chamber of Commerce, and she had no in-depth understanding of the intricate forces behind this so-called Chang'an Chamber of Commerce.

Unexpectedly, a Yuanheng Qianzhuang that specialized in accessing and withdrawing money actually had the endorsement of the most orthodox United Chamber of Commerce in Chang'an, Qiao Ran only felt that the scene in front of him was quite ridiculous.

"So, what does Chang'an Chamber of Commerce mean by this?" Qiao Ran sneered, "How can you convince the public like this?" ”

She is not so naïve as to think that the world is black and white, she doesn't dare to say everyone, but there must be someone in this Chang'an Chamber of Commerce who has money deposited in Yuanheng Qianzhuang.

But even if there is, it should be hidden, at least not openly, but this Chang'an Chamber of Commerce actually came openly, no wonder Zhen Shiyuan missed this time.

"In fact, it has little to do with today's Chang'an Chamber of Commerce, because that endorsement has been around for a long time." Xu Hexiu, who grabbed plum strips and dipped them in sauce to eat, said, "It's an endorsement from a hundred years ago." ”

The Great Chu Dynasty has been established for more than 400 years, and in many dynasties where the national Zuo died in just a few decades or even the second generation, the Great Chu can be said to be prosperous and prosperous for a long time.

But no matter how virtuous the founding king is, no matter how powerful the talented courtiers are, even if the Great Chu is still prosperous today, lice will inevitably grow under the gorgeous robes of the Li clan.

It was the joint endorsement of the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce several dynasties ago, and in the past hundred years, Yuanheng Qianzhuang has been low-key, silently lying in the shadows of Chang'an City. There are also many people in this court who deposit the money in their hands that cannot be seen in the middle, so that for the existence of Yuanheng Qianzhuang, they must not want it to disappear, even if one Yuanheng Qianzhuang disappears, there will inevitably be other Qianzhuang, so silently existing and not causing trouble Yuanheng Qianzhuang is exactly what they need.

Therefore, the invisible blessing coupled with the low-key non-trouble of the promoter behind the scenes has achieved the centennial of Yuanheng Qianzhuang.

Regarding the affairs of Chang'an City, Qiao Ran admitted that he didn't know much, and almost immediately caught the "wrong" in it as soon as he heard this endorsement: "I know that this Yuanheng Qianzhuang has been around for decades, but this endorsement is a hundred years ago, could it be that Yuanheng Qianzhuang has been endorsed a hundred years ago before it existed?" ”

A hundred years ago, how could the Great Chu Tianzi and the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce at that time endorse a money village that still exists?

"That's because this Yuanheng Qianzhuang has changed its name several times," mentioning the secret of today's headless and brainless collision, even Zhen Shiyuan himself was a little afraid, "This Yuanheng Qianzhuang is the latest name." ”

It also changes its name every few decades, as if it really wants to make this money bank exist for a long time.

Even sometimes the name of the Yuanheng Qianzhuang has been changed, and some supervision officials will even record the two confused, so it is even more difficult to find out about the Yuanheng Qianzhuang.

For example, with the current name, there have been several called Yuanheng Qianzhuang before, and this one is mixed in, and I am afraid that only the depositors who save money themselves will know which one is the one they are looking for.

Of course, a money bank that has existed for a hundred years cannot only have the money in the basement, but as the shopkeeper said, no one has come to sue, and there is a chamber of commerce endorsement here, and it cannot be moved casually.

Since it was an endorsement a hundred years ago, today's Chang'an Chamber of Commerce can naturally abolish this endorsement. However, this endorsement is not easily discarded. One is that this endorsement is consistent with the law, and the other is that there are many people in the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce who are afraid that there are also people in Yuanheng Qianzhuang who have hidden money, and under such circumstances, Yuanheng Qianzhuang will naturally not be abolished.

In a way, there is a reason for the "long-term existence" of Yuanheng Qianzhuang.

As for Zhen Shiyuan's desire to check the accounts, even if all he wants to check is the Yuanheng Money Zhuang in his hand, I am afraid that anyone who has deposited silver money in the Yuanheng Money Village will not want Zhen Shiyuan to see the account, and this time it is really a lot of resistance.

It's really hard! Qiao Ran lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment, then suddenly smiled, she stretched out her hand to Zhen Shiyuan: "My lord, lend me that seal!" ”

What seals? Xu Hexiu, who was biting the plum strip on the side, was stunned for a moment, only to see that Zhen Shiyuan only hesitated slightly, so he took out a seal letter from his sleeve pocket and handed it over.

The girl took it with her hand, then wiped her grease-stained hands, got up and said, "I'll go out, and you two will rest here for a while." With that, he strode out of the room.

Xu Hexiu was stunned for a while, brought it back to his senses, and hurriedly asked Zhen Shiyuan: "Lord Zhen, you have the seal of Yuanheng Qianzhuang, why do you want me to steal my father's seal?" ”

Zhen Shiyuan glanced at him, coughed dryly and said, "Don't talk nonsense, how can this official be the kind of peak who provokes the love of his subordinates' father and son?" This is clearly something you can't bear your mother to be kept in the dark and take it yourself! Don't rely on me! ”

At the moment, he didn't have the heart to dwell on this trivial matter with Xu Hexiu, he was curious about what this girl was going to do when she suddenly borrowed the seal.
