Chapter 108: Outer Room?
"The boss said to let you go to the old place and wait for him."
The child's voice was very low, so only Qin Xiang heard it, and after the child finished speaking, he immediately ran away with the fried chicken.
Qin Xiang didn't care about this guy eating his food for nothing, she was curious about what the fox was looking for her.
After selling out of things, she put away her stall and walked towards the teahouse they had come across.
When she reached the alley in front of the teahouse, she saw the fox talking to two teenage children.
One of the children was the one he sent the news just now.
"Qian Wei really didn't plan to wave his hand, I also obeyed this love to die!"
After the fox saw Qin Xiang, he couldn't help but sigh a little at this woman's foresight.
Before, he thought that Qian Wei had been taught a lesson like that, so he had to remember it for a long time and stop for a few months.
Unexpectedly, Qian Wei had just come out of prison, and he planned to calculate Qin Xiang, as if he was not willing to wait for a moment.
"What is he going to do?"
Qin Xiang didn't care about the fox's reaction at all, but asked calmly.
"He found a very famous lawyer in a neighboring county, and wanted to sue you for tax evasion, and the witness was found by a small official in the county office, and the physical evidence was provided by the small official was a tael of silver, saying that the silver was used by you to buy off the small official."
There was no personal emotion in the tone of the fox head, it was completely on the facts.
But just listening to such an unreliable loose notice, Qin Xiang almost didn't hold back his expression: "He really fights." ”
"Who said it wasn't, the lawyer he hired was very noble, and he bought off that little official, in this small county town, it is definitely a big deal."
The fox head nodded, as far as he knew, it would cost twelve taels of silver to hire the lawyer, and it would definitely be more expensive to buy the clerk than to hire the lawyer, because the risk was too great.
Qin Xiang nodded, but his mind was no longer in this aspect, but kept thinking about the tax payment standards of the ancient stalls in his mind.
For small traders like them, it is enough to pay only two taels of silver a year, and these two taels have already been paid to the yamen when the Chinese New Year is approaching.
Now they are making such a fuss, which is clearly to slander her, even if there is no problem, they want to create a problem to bring her down.
"Anything else?"
Qin Xiang thought for a moment, then turned his head to look at the fox head and asked about other things.
The fox head shook his head, a little surprised in his eyes, thinking in his heart that if it was an ordinary woman, she would definitely panic when she heard such a thing.
But Qin Xiang didn't panic, she was thinking very calmly, maybe she could really come up with some good methods.
Qin Xiang thought for a while, and said to the fox: "You go and inquire about that little official, and inquire about everything about him." ”
If she didn't know about it before, maybe she would have been caught off guard, but the problem is that she already knew it in advance, so things would be different.
"Okay, I know, they have already calculated, and they will go to the county magistrate to sue you in a few days, you better prepare."
The fox head took the silver he got from Qin Xiang, and immediately left in a hurry with two little followers.
Qin Xiang saw that the person had left, so she didn't pay much attention to it, anyway, after explaining it a few times, she also saw that the county order was not a fool.
She didn't make a mistake in the first place, and this matter couldn't be relied on on her.
Thinking like this in her heart, she realized that it was already late, and hurriedly rushed to pick up the two small groups.
On the afternoon of the second day, after Qin Xiang closed the stall, he went to the teahouse to wait for the fox, and after a while, he saw the fox head coming over with two and a half children.
And these two boys are not the two she saw yesterday, Qin Xiang thought about it carefully, and found that when he saw the fox head for the first time, this guy had a lot of people with him.
"Your little brother has enough."
Qin Xiang couldn't help but smile when he thought of this.
"They are all babies from poor families in ten miles and eight villages, and they will be mixed with me if they can't get by."
The fox head smiled, then approached Qin Xiang and handed over a rag.
Qin Xiang opened the cloth with some curiosity, and saw that there were a lot of words written on it with charcoal, but fortunately, she knew traditional Chinese characters, so she could understand most of them.
All written above is the information of the little official bought by Qian Wei, this little official is called Cheng Su, who has been an errand boy in the county government for more than ten years, and his main business is to manage the taxes of all parts of the county.
Qin Xiang thought about it carefully, and really remembered that a person was very attached to the image of Cheng Su, she had seen this person last time she went to the county government to pay taxes.
"This man has an outer room?"
Qin Xiang couldn't help but be a little surprised when she saw the content above, under the influence of modern TV dramas, she felt that the little official was just a petty official who couldn't be ranked, and he wasn't even an official.
Such a man could even afford to raise an outer chamber, and this outer chamber even bore him a son.
Qin Xiang took a closer look, only to find that the wife of this little official was the daughter of a master bookkeeper in a neighboring county, and the main book had more rights than the little official.
Therefore, even if his wife failed to give birth to a son for him, he still couldn't divorce his wife, but he wanted a son, so he made an outer room.
"Does Qian Wei know that he has an outer chamber and an illegitimate child?"
After Qin Xiang read it carefully, he asked at the fox.
"I don't know, otherwise, with that guy's temperament, he would definitely not spend so much money to buy Cheng Su, this handle is enough for him to force Cheng Su to help him."
The fox head shook his head, and then smiled, his eyes already revealing a bit of calculation.
He has never been accustomed to these officials who eat imperial grain, and he likes to get some silver flowers from their hands on weekdays.
This time, he helped Qin Xiang investigate things, but he accidentally found out such a thing, how could this not make him moved.
He was thinking that Fei had to take advantage of Qin Xiang's hands to clean up Qian Wei and get some silver flowers from Cheng Su's hands.
Qin Xiang didn't see what he thought, but she didn't care, after all, that Cheng Su was not a good thing.
The laws of this Xiyan Kingdom are very strict, and even only a little less lenient than the laws of Qin back then.
If Qin Xiang really confirms the charge of tax evasion, let alone opening a shop in the future, don't even think about setting up a stall, and he may face prison.
This Qian Wei's trick is ruthless enough, he not only wants her to go to prison, but also wants to cut off her financial route, and even does not hesitate to be a fortune boy for a while.
Qin Xiang asked herself if she had any grudges against him, if he hadn't deliberately found fault last time, she wouldn't have dealt with Qian Wei.
"Qin Niangzi, what do you think, why don't I send some people to block Cheng Su, force him to change his confession in the court, and then make a fortune by the way!"
Seeing that Qin Xiang was silent, the fox head said with a faint smile, he couldn't wait to clean up Cheng Su.
"Do you know the identity of his outer chamber?"
Qin Xiang turned his head and thought about the plan in his heart, that Cheng Su was cunning at first glance, and he would not be so easy to grasp.
Even if he agrees to retract his confession now, he will point all the charges at Qian Wei at that time, but when he goes to court, he is very likely to face Qian Wei.
Compared with Qian Wei, who is wronged, he wants to kill people who know his secrets, as long as the crime is convicted and he is put in a prison cell, Qian Wei has countless ways to kill Qin Xiang.
At that time, Qin Xiang didn't have a chance to tell him about his outer room, so he had to be foolproof.
He was a widow in the outer chamber and had only one daughter with her previous husband, so she was kicked out of her in-laws' house as soon as her husband died. Later, she opened a small shop in the county and barely survived. ”
The fox head sighed and knew that this widow was unlucky, it was not easy to open a shop to do business, if she didn't find Cheng Su as a backer, it would be difficult for her to open this shop.
"She opened a spring cake shop in the county, just west of the city, and you have been there many times."
However, the fox head still told the truth, he probably guessed what Qin Xiang wanted to do.
There is only one spring cake shop in the county, Qin Xiang immediately remembered this shop, and couldn't help but think of the appearance of the proprietress who opened the shop.
The proprietress is in her thirties, well-maintained, very delicate, and does have a bit of a look when she was young.
Qin Xiang couldn't help but sigh, thinking of what he was going to do next, he couldn't help but feel a little helpless in his heart.
"Tonight, you will invite the proprietress and her children to a safe place, make sure Cheng Su can't find it, and before the lawsuit is over, you must not let them show up, remember to bring the long-life lock of the boss's son to me!"
Qin Xiang thought for a while, and had nothing to add, so he took out two taels of silver and asked the fox head to do it.
"Remember not to scare them, I just wanted to deal with Cheng Su, I didn't want to implicate the innocent."
Qin Xiang was afraid that the fox's work was not light or heavy, so he hurriedly reminded him a few more words.
The fox head weighed the silver in his hand, his face bloomed with joy, and he smiled: "Don't worry, I have never made a mistake in half of the matter......
After speaking, he suddenly remembered that the last time he was beaten down by Han Yunxiao, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, and he hurriedly changed the topic: "What about Cheng Su?" ”
"Needless to say, lest it be self-defeating. He is a smart man, and when he sees his son's longevity lock hanging on me, will he still understand what is going on? ”
Qin Xiang shook her head, she didn't know what the fox head thought, but the fox head was an acquaintance in this county, and if he asked him to threaten Cheng Su, he would only show his feet in front of Cheng Su.
Cheng Su will definitely follow the fox head when he arrives to track down the whereabouts of the mother and son, the fox head is just a gangster, he will definitely not be able to fight Cheng Su, who has been a small official for more than ten years.
Maybe before Qian Wei could sue her, Cheng Su had already found the mother and son.
Qin Xiang looked a little disappointed when he saw the fox, and continued: "At that time, we will all be in the court, and he will not have the opportunity to investigate the safety of the mother and son, so he can only believe it or not, so he will definitely try his best to protect me, you just need to do it before the case is closed, and not let the mother and son show up." ”
The fox head thought about it for a while, probably also figured out what Qin Xiang was worried about, so he nodded and left with a few younger brothers.
Qin Xiang shook his head helplessly when he saw that the people were far away, and sighed in his heart, I am afraid that I will not be able to eat the cakes of the spring cake shop in the future.
She saw that people were far away, so she drove the car in the direction of the academy, but as soon as she arrived at the gate of the academy, she saw Jiang Li also waiting at the gate of the academy, he was leaning on the carriage, holding a teapot in his hand, looking leisurely.
