Although Charlie is a businessman, his hobbies are more in the buildings he loves, and he is not particularly sensitive to these things.

Karl had noticed.

Carl asked Charlie: "Charlie, you take the picture book every day, and you just ask yourself about the goods, do you know that the people who came over at the same time as us have disappeared several times." ”

Charlie was very surprised, as an Englishman, although he had no feelings for his compatriots, but now in a foreign country, when he heard this, he couldn't help but care: "What's the matter?" Did you offend someone? ”

No wonder he guessed so, although these merchants from Britain were all fragrant and sweet in the eyes of the Qing Dynasty, but after all, they were from other places, and they were not as capable as the head snake, and if they offended people who should not be offended, they might really disappear.

Carl shook his head: "I don't know, I haven't heard that they have offended anyone, I heard that they have found a buyer and are going to leave for home soon, and I don't know why they disappeared." ”

Charlie felt that something was wrong when he heard this, and he was very worried, although he did not know those people.

"Otherwise, go and report to the official! Although we are outsiders to the Qing Dynasty, after all, we can bring goods to the Qing Dynasty, and no one refuses money, right! As long as we are united, we will definitely let the yamen of the Qing Dynasty give us an explanation, otherwise I will not feel safe staying in the Qing Dynasty, and if there are more people reporting to the officials, it will inevitably attract attention, which is much better than waiting for news like this. ”

Carl listened to Charlie's proposal and was very moved.

They are all foreign businessmen, as the so-called strong dragon can't suppress the head snake, if they show weakness, everyone will inevitably want to bully them in the future, and it is necessary to report the group.

"You're right, I'll find some more people, and we'll go to the yamen together."

Most people thought the same as Karl, and then they were encouraged by Karl, so they went to the yamen to report to the official.

As for why those British merchants disappeared, although there is no news outside, there are still some people in the yamen who know the news.

They also did not expect that British businessmen would come to the door to report to the officials.

"Lord Zhou, what do you think of this?"

What to do?

What can I do, of course, it is to find the emperor, the person was arrested by the emperor, the reason is unknown, it sounds like the eyes, but they don't know what the specific situation is, and now they are being found by someone, and they also feel a little guilty in their hearts!

"Your Majesty, see you in the book of Lord Zhou."

Yinzhen: "Let him in." ”

After Zhou Liaoping came in, he first saluted, and then began to report the reason.

"Your Majesty, the British Emperor has now collectively gone to the Yamen, saying that let's give an explanation, a few businessmen from the UK have disappeared for no reason, and let the Qing Dynasty find out the truth."

Yin Zhen sneered, and then said to Zhou Liaoping: "I know about this, you go back and tell those people, just say let them wait for three days, and give them an explanation after three days." ”

Although Zhou Liaoping didn't know what the emperor was going to do, he knew that at this time, he just had to do what the emperor said, and it was unnecessary to get to the bottom of it.

Zhou Liaoping went back and said Yinzhen's words with a smile, and asked him to wait for three days and give an answer after three days.

The British businessman is not such an unforgiving person, since the yamen has said that it is not who is missing, in the spirit of compatriotism, plus the fear that if he disappears, no one will care.

When the yamen answered, they went back.

Two days later, Yinzhen then took control of the rich businessmen who smoked Fushou paste in Guangzhou, one of them was addicted to a lot of money, Yinzhen went to see it with his own eyes, in order to ask for a little Fushou ointment, knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, snot, it is estimated that he will do the same if he learns to call a dog. Lazy people listen to books

It's not that no one has discovered the harm of this Fushou cream, but they all like that feeling, and even some people want to use Fushou paste to control others in order to achieve their goals, and Yinzhen also found two cases.

One is a wealthy local businessman surnamed Liu, whose nephew knew about such a thing and slowly added Fushou paste to his food, which made him addicted.

One is the backyard of a wealthy businessman surnamed Wang, and the stepmother knew that there was such a thing, so she asked her stepson and stepdaughter to put Fushou paste in the meal, but both cases achieved their goals.

The rich businessman surnamed Liu now treats his nephew more favorably than his own son, where is the rich businessman surnamed Wang, the stepmother does control the stepson and stepdaughter in her own hands, and the stepson and stepdaughter are not successful, but she has a good reputation.

Most of the others try it at first, and then they like the feeling of being fluttering, and they may know in their hearts that it will be addictive, but they are reluctant to quit.

"Your Majesty, people have been completely controlled, everything that is consumed and participated in has been controlled."

Yin Zhen nodded: "Tomorrow bring everyone to the yamen, I will also go over tomorrow and hold a trial." ”

"Yes"

It was Zhou Liaoping who talked to Yinzhen, there was nothing wrong with him, Yinzhen saw that he was quite down-to-earth, and his mouth was relatively reliable, although the people around him were all capable, but they were always unfamiliar with life, and they were not as familiar as Zhou Liaoping.

Zhou Liaoping has been following the investigation in the past two days, so he also saw the humble appearance of the person who is addicted to Fushou cream, and he learned that the source of Fushou paste is the missing British businessmen, so he knows that the emperor is expected to make a big move this time.

Zhou Liaoping was finally able to relax on the way back, he was not relaxed at all in the past two days, and now when he relaxed, he thought of the officials who were dismissed and punished some time ago, and as soon as the two things were linked, Zhou Liaoping knew why.

Zhou Liaoping thought about it, and suddenly remembered one thing, he also likes to go to the teahouse on weekdays, once, the shopkeeper of the teahouse wanted to recommend a good thing to him, the price was expensive, he hesitated for a moment and refused, now thinking about it, he was suddenly shocked into a cold sweat.

Mrs. Zhou saw that Zhou Liaoping had been restless, and her eyes were a little empty, so she was a little worried: "What's wrong with you, master?" ”

Zhou Liaoping came back to his senses, glanced at Mrs. Zhou, and muttered, "It's okay, but I'm a little afraid." ”

Mrs. Zhou didn't know why, and asked, "Why are you afraid?" ”

Zhou Liaoping will also talk to Mrs. Zhou about some important decisions on weekdays, after all, husband and wife are one, besides, Mrs. Zhou is also a virtuous helper, and she can sometimes give some advice on some officialdom matters, and Zhou Liaoping does not intend to hide this from her.

told everything about it, including the fact that she almost took Fushou cream, and Mrs. Zhou was also shocked into a cold sweat after hearing it.

At this time, Mrs. Zhou also thought that the queen mother often corresponded with Mrs. Cheng, and inquired a lot about British merchant ships, including about British merchants eating "good things" for the slaves on the ships to refresh their minds.

Mrs. Zhou also told her about it, and then the couple glanced at each other, and finally Zhou Liaoping said: "This matter is over, don't mention it to anyone, let the queen mother be vigilant in the future." ”

Mrs. Zhou looked solemn: "The concubine knows." ”

On the other side, Yun Rong looked at Yinzhen and said, "Tomorrow you plan to come forward in person." ”

Yun Rong means to come forward as the emperor.

Yin Zhen nodded: "Well, let them have a long memory, touching that kind of thing is touching my reverse scales, I will be angry about other things, this matter, I will definitely strangle it in the cradle." ”

Yinzhen said this more than once, which shows Yinzhen's dislike of opium-related things.

It's no wonder that in the two Opium Wars, the door of the country was opened, the great powers invaded, and the people of the country were not happy, even if Yinzhen was not an emperor, a bloody person would be angry when he looked at it.

Moreover, opium also made the Chinese people bear the title of the weak husband of East Asia, and Yinzhen couldn't bear it.

Yun Rong will not stop him, although she did not face that period of history, but she has seen it recorded in the history books, and she has also seen modern drug documentaries, which really makes people feel heavy, and Yinzhen naturally agrees with both hands when she does this.
