Seeing that Zhou's mother left, Qin said to Gu Xixi seriously: "Daughter, my mother is not stingy and will not give you silver." It's just that, as you know, there is really not so much cash at home. Ten million taels, hey, it's almost all the savings in our house. ”

"So Mother Zhou is going to ......" Thinking of this, Gu Xixi was a little ashamed. Seeing Zhou's mother go out, she thought that the Qin family had something to say to her, and persuaded her to give up. Now it seems that it is not my own.

"Yes, Mother Zhou has gone to the major silver banks to withdraw cash. If you want to say that person is also ruthless, he doesn't even want a silver ticket, as long as he is cash, it is clear that he wants to make things difficult for us. However, our Gu family is not afraid of him. Big deal, I still have some old things to dowry, which are also worth a few silver. ”

Hearing this, Gu Xixi said with a guilty face: "My daughter has caused trouble for my mother again." It's just that can we get this money together tomorrow? If it's not enough, my daughter still has some here, but my mother's dowry can't be touched......"

In this regard, the Qin clan hurriedly stopped: "Your little silver can be left by your side." It is absolutely impossible to say that we women don't have any silver around them. My dowry, what do you think is the use of keeping it, it's just for you and Xi'er in the future. It's okay, you don't have to worry, my mother will find a way. ”

Xi'er is the nickname of Gu Xixi's eldest daughter, only the Qin family and Baizhi County will call it like this, and others don't know.

Hearing this, Gu Xixi put his mind at ease, knowing in his heart that the Qin family had this ability, so he talked for a while, and then left with the two children.

Maybe it was because of the solution of a major event, Gu Xixi suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, and when he left, he was not as heavy as when he first came. It's just that what she didn't know was that as soon as she left, Zhou's mother walked out of the room. It seems that he didn't go to any silver village at all.

Just because this time, the Qin clan won't spend a penny at all. If Gu Xixi and Bai Zhixian were in trouble, she would naturally do everything she could to keep him safe. However, now that the shopkeeper Ye is in trouble, she can't wait for this.

It's rare for someone to take action for her, and it's too late for her to be happy, so how can she take the initiative to stop it? Being a bodhisattva or something also depends on people.

As for that Ye shopkeeper, hmph, it's time to go to prison.

Over the years, because of the pity of face, the Qin family endured and endured, otherwise Shopkeeper Ye would definitely not have lived so chic.

Now it's good that he sent it to the door himself.

Since this is the case, Mrs. Qin will naturally not let go of such a good opportunity. has made the shopkeeper Ye angry for more than ten years, but he still doesn't dare to make a move easily. This time, she was finally about to breathe.

Tang Chongde was sorting out the accounts in the house, and looked at today's sales again, feeling proud. In the busy time, only to hear the "squeak" of the secret door in the accounting room, Tang Xiang flashed in again.

Seeing this, Tang Chongde was displeased, and no matter what Tang thought or thought, he said directly: "You have always been like this recently, running over without saying hello in advance." It's okay, it's night, and there's no one. It's good now, in broad daylight, you just swaggered in, what, do you think others don't know that we are brothers, or, do you want to tell Qi Yuanwai that the boss behind this shop is me? ”

After saying that, he threw away the abacus and sat there sulking.

Recently, Tang Xiang did come to Tang Chongde at every turn, which made Tang Chongde feel very uncomfortable. If outsiders know that they are the behind-the-scenes bosses of the Colorful Wind Jade Shop, I don't know how many things will happen.

Seeing that his brother was angry, Tang Xiang hurriedly said, "Big brother, don't be angry, I know that I am a bit risky in doing this." It's just that the thought that the day after tomorrow will be the delivery date, I am excited. It's just that I can't sleep because I have insomnia in the past two nights, and I always feel that something will happen, so I came to talk to you. ”

"Okay, don't think about it, there are only two days left, do you think Ye Yuntian still has a way to live? Even if he finds 10 million taels, he still doesn't have to give it to us. When the time comes, with this silver, we can go to the capital to open a shop, which is still very magnificent. ”

Tang Chongde comforted Tang Xiangyou with happy things. This younger brother of his, like this, always likes to worry about the sky. Although it is very cautious to do this, it is a bit uninteresting in the end.

Tang Xiang said again: "Big brother, I am really not steadfast in my heart, and I always feel that something is going to happen." And if it's just compensation for silver, it can be regarded as cheap Ye Yuntian. You don't know, but I want him to get a taste of prison. Doesn't he claim to be a showman? I'm going to completely cut off his way to the imperial examination. ”

I have to say that Tang Xiangyou's words completely reminded Tang Chongde. If Zhenbao Zhai collapsed after this incident, Ye Yuntian ran to participate in the imperial examination, and Bai Zhixian was familiar with him, in case he was hit, it would be easy to retaliate against the two brothers at that time.

Since ancient times, the people have not fought with officials.

Although their business is doing well, they are absolutely no match for the official family. Just like this time they calculated Zhenbao Zhai, when the shopkeeper Ye was in high school, there was naturally a way to find fault.

Thinking of this, Tang Chongde said insidiously: "Well, what you said makes sense, brother, but the eldest brother was negligent." In that case, then we need to advance. ”

After pondering for a while, Tang Chongde said: "In this way, early tomorrow morning, you will find someone to carry Qi out to the county government to sue Zhenbaozhai, saying that Ye Yuntian took the work privately, but he could not deliver the goods on time, resulting in heavy losses for Jubaozhai." In this way, even if he has saved enough money, he will have to go to the prison first. People who have been in prison, do you think he is still qualified to take the imperial examination? ”

Hearing this, Tang Xiang patted his thigh again and said happily: "Brother is so scheming, wonderful, it's so wonderful, I'll arrange it right away." ”

Tang Xiangyou's face was a little distorted because of happiness, and he looked at Tang Chongde stunned for a moment. He was very sure that he didn't need any blood test at all, and this Tang Xiang was definitely his father's species.

Before his father wanted to kill someone, he would have been such a distorted face.

On the second day, the sensational Zhenbaozhai breach of contract compensation case in Qingshan County officially kicked off. To say that before this, the attention of the Kang Yan abduction case has been high, and it is still a topic of conversation after dinner.

However, they will soon find out that as soon as this case comes out, it is called the real excitement. Because this case is widely implicated and extremely exciting.

On this day, although it was still very early, and even some people who got up late had not eaten breakfast, and soon someone found that the Qi members of Jubao Zhai had fainted. And according to insiders, Qi Yuanwai was not sick, but fainted with anger.

"Quick, tell me quickly, what's going on, how to say faint, if you want to say who has this ability, you can actually make Qi people so angry that they faint directly."

An aunt still had eye feces on her eyes, but she didn't bother to freshen up, and she didn't care that the children in the house were crying with hunger, and asked eagerly.

"yes, let's talk about it, don't sell it." Another middle-aged woman also asked anxiously. Their sense of smell is unusually sensitive, and they feel that this time it is not easy.

Seeing that everyone was surrounding him, the fat woman with the woman's head curled on her head said proudly: "If you want to say, this is also a coincidence." My nephew is working as a buddy in this Jubao Zhai. It is said that Qi Yuanwai received a batch of orders from the capital at the beginning of the month, because the quantity was too large, so he was ready to return it, after all, if the goods could not be delivered on time, they would have to be compensated. ”

"What does this have to do with him fainting?"

"yes, don't sell it, hurry up."

"Who knows, the shopkeeper of Zhenbao Zhai took the order without informing the boss. However, tomorrow is the delivery date, but it is said that this Ye shopkeeper is not capable of completing it, and the capital side will not do it, saying that he will compensate 10 million taels of silver. No, when Qi Yuanwai heard the news, he fainted in fright. ”

"Ten million taels? Oh my God, how much silver is that? ”

"Isn't the shopkeeper Ye finished this time?"

"I don't think so, everyone knows that this treasure is the property of Miss Gu Jiaer, that is to say, it is actually equivalent to the industry of the county magistrate. No matter who it is, you have to see the face of the magistrate before you move, right? ”

"That's it. However, you don't know yet, compared to the Qin family's ability to reach the sky, the county magistrate is a fart. ”

"Really? But I heard that the shopkeeper Tang had already carried Qi Yuan out to the county government to beat drums and sound grievances. ”

"Oh my God, are you telling the truth? Let's go, go and see. ”

……

Everyone looked at me and said a word, but in a moment, I dug up the history of Zhenbao Zhai. But the most talked about depends on the attitude of the magistrate.

After all, Zhenbao Zhai is his own industry, and now that the shopkeeper has committed a crime, everyone is very interested in seeing how he solves the case.

For a while, everyone flocked to the county office like a tide.

When everyone dispersed, Zhou's mother walked out and gave the fat woman who had just taken a walk five taels of silver, and then they scattered all over the ground.

Bai Zhixian was dragged out of bed by the master who rushed into the house and came to life.

Last night, Gu Xixi told him that the Qin family was willing to contribute 10 million taels to settle this matter, so as soon as he was happy, he drank a lot of wine.

To be honest, he hasn't slept well since the order incident. An official from a humble background like him is noble to put it mildly, but in fact, to put it bluntly, he is short of silver. Now in this officialdom, everything needs to be dealt with, and it is impossible to do it without money.

In his heart, he has always attributed his failure in this expedition and being assassinated to a lack of money and failure to open up the relevant joints. And Zhen Bao Zhai, he accounted for fifty percent of the shares, Qin's three percent, Ye Shopkeeper and Yao Wushuang each one percent.

After the last assessment, he didn't dare to make money, so the income of Zhenbao Zhai became an important source of income for him. If he had lived on his money, he would have starved to death. As a result, Shirachi Prefecture is more nervous about the economic situation of Jumbo Zhai than anyone else.

When he opened his sleepy eyes and saw that it was Master Li, Bai Zhixian was a little unhappy.

Although he is the same subject and is very familiar with it, after all, there is a difference between the top and bottom, he is an official, he is a subordinate, even if there is a big matter, he can't break in directly like this.

So, Bai Zhixian asked angrily: "Master Li, don't you see that the official is still sleeping?" What the hell is going on, it's worth your panic. ”

Master Li is the son of the same department in Baizhi County, when Nai was unlucky, he failed many times, and he was not as good as Baizhi County, and he married the daughter of the Gu family as a wife, so he simply did not take the test, and became a master under the protection of Baizhi County, but he was also happy.

"My lord, get up quickly, something is wrong, something is wrong! That Jubao Zhai sued Zhenbao Zhai, and is now beating drums outside the county office. "Master Li ran out of breath.

"What, what's going on, isn't the delivery date coming tomorrow?" Bai Zhixian said in a hurry, and at the same time panicked. According to Gu Xixi's statement, the Qin clan will not be able to prepare the 10 million taels of silver until tomorrow at the earliest.

Master Li said: "Hurry up, adults, hurry up and ascend to the hall." Let's go, let's talk as we go, we can't delay. ”

Bai Zhixian understood as soon as he heard it, instead of letting them continue to attract the crowd of onlookers outside the county office, it was better to quickly ascend to the court, summon the parties involved, and stabilize the situation first.

So, I didn't care about freshening up, I just put on my official uniform indiscriminately, tidied it up a little, and hurriedly asked Master Li to go out to prepare.

Master Li personally greeted him out, and saw Tang Xiang beating the drum desperately. As soon as he made a look, an official stepped forward to stop him: "Who is beating the drum?" What is it? ”

Hearing this, Tang Xiang stopped beating the drum again, and said loudly: "My lord, Xiaomin is the shopkeeper of Jubao Zhai, my surname is Tang, and now Ye Yuntian, who has come to sue Zhenbao Zhai with the owner, deceived the superiors and subordinates, acted recklessly, and caused Jubao Zhai to owe 10 million taels. ”

As he spoke, he bowed forward again and handed over the paper.

Master Li stepped forward to take the paper, and seeing that there was no mistake, he asked the official to pull a few people into the county office. After this toss, Bai Zhixian was dressed neatly, and with cold water and fright, he finally woke up and was sitting upright at the moment.

Seeing the master's eyes, Bai Zhixian knew that everything was in place, so he patted the hall according to the procedure, and shouted majestically: "Who is kneeling in the hall, what is the matter?" ”

Hearing this, Tang Xiang hurriedly said: "My lord, Xiaomin is the shopkeeper of Jubao Zhai, and the owner of the shop is lying next to him. When I got up in the morning, the owner heard a news, and in a hurry, he fainted in a hurry. After the doctor's first aid, although I am awake, I can't stand up, and I ask for your forgiveness. ”

As he spoke, Tang Xiang told the ins and outs of the matter again.

After finishing speaking, there was a look of self-satisfaction on his face, he was waiting, waiting for what Bai Zhixian would do next. Anyway, there is a large group of people outside the county government now, and he is not afraid of Bai Zhi County's favoritism.

Hearing this, Bai Zhixian said with a headache: "Is there any evidence for this matter?" ”

Tang Xiang hurriedly said: "Naturally, there is, and the small one has the contract signed by Zhenbao Zhai when he took the order that day." ”

It stands to reason that at this time, the official should pass the contract to Bai Zhixian to distinguish the authenticity. However, Bai Zhixian didn't want to see it at all, Gu Xixi had already told him that it was Yao Wushuang's name written on it.

In other words, if you really look at it, Yao Wushuang will be arrested. However, if he dared to arrest Yao Wushuang for interrogation, the Qin clan would then dare to slap him in the face.

Fortunately, it was Ye Yuntian who was sued by the shopkeeper of Tang, not Yao Wushuang.

Thinking of this, Bai Zhixian said: "There is no basis for what he says, and the official can't listen to one-sided words." Come on, go to Zhenbao Zhai and bring Ye Yuntian quickly. ”

As soon as these words came out, a servant set off with equipment and went to Zhenbaozhai to get people. When the onlookers saw this, they all gave a thumbs up. They originally thought that Bai Zhixian would favor the shopkeeper Ye, but now it seems that they are ruthless.

When a few yacha arrived at Zhenbao Zhai, the shopkeeper Ye was cleaning up the accounts in the shop. After this period of negotiation, Shopkeeper Ye clearly realized that this time, Zhenbao Zhai was afraid that it would be difficult to escape.

After all, tomorrow is the delivery date, but at this moment, he hasn't even figured out a way.

Gu Bo was the first to see a messenger enter the door, and he was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a while. In the past, these yacha also came, but they passed by during patrols, and asked if there were any ruffians and hooligans who came to make trouble.

And today, you don't have to think about it, you are here to arrest people at first glance.

The most mature of the several yacha said again: "Uncle Gu, I believe you also know what happened, please go and ask Shopkeeper Ye to come out, just say that we are in a hurry to take him back to restore his life." ”

Whether it is the tone or the action, it gives the shopkeeper enough face. If it had been someone else, they would have rushed in and arrested someone.

Hearing this, Gu Bo hurriedly rushed in, he knew that this matter could not be delayed. Although he didn't have any way, it would be better to tell Shopkeeper Ye a moment earlier.

There is nothing wrong with the accounts, but after calculation, the cash that Zhenbao Zhai can get out of his hands is definitely not more than 100,000 taels.

In other words, no matter what, the 10 million taels will not be compensated. And even if all the shops and jewelry were sold now, it would be almost impossible. Because for a time there was no such buyer at all.

And even if it is sold, the gap is still very huge.

While he was pondering, he saw Gu Bo running in panting. For more than ten years, he had never seen Gu Bo like this, even if he had just signed that order last time, he had never lost his temper like this.

So, he knew in his heart that what should have come had come after all. It seems that the other party must go to prison by himself this time.

"Is the yacha here?" Shopkeeper Ye asked softly. That relaxed tone made Gu Bo feel as if it wasn't something terrible.

"Yes, they are waiting for you to go out outside, saying that they are going to take you to the county government for questioning." Gu Bo didn't dare to look at Shopkeeper Ye's eyes. Originally, I thought that with the means of Gu Xixi and the Qin family, this matter would not have reached this point.

Although 10 million taels is more, the Qin clan must be able to get it.

At this moment, he suddenly understood that he had overestimated Zhenbaozhai and the Qin family. I only understand this truth now, and I guess the peerless girl won't understand it.

Shopkeeper Ye said: "I know, you ask them to wait for a while, and I will come out immediately." With that, he went straight to the backyard and quickly changed into a shirt. The one he was wearing hadn't been washed for days.

Coupled with the fact that I stayed all night last night and didn't sleep at all, this dress is no longer what it looks like.

The next moment, to the surprise of the yachas, Shopkeeper Ye walked out with a radiant look, neatly dressed, not at all the embarrassed appearance they expected.

"Let's go, guys, I'm sorry to delay your errand." Shopkeeper Ye said softly. These yacha suddenly felt that they had never seen such a Ye shopkeeper.

In the past, when I heard that he was a showman, almost no one believed it, and some people even said that this was just a propaganda method of Zhenbao Zhai, and it was a gimmick for Xiucai to be the shopkeeper.

But now they believe it, and that's what a showman should look like.

As if he suddenly thought of something, Shopkeeper Ye suddenly turned around and said to Gu Bo, who had been watching him behind him: "Uncle Gu, no matter what the Wushuang girl wants to do for a while, you only need to say one word, just say that from today on, she is the real owner of Zhenbao Zhai, everything must be focused on the overall situation, and you must not be willful anymore." ”

After speaking, he followed the yacha and left.

At this moment, Yao Wushuang was in a daze in the attic facing the street of Zhenbao Zhai, looking at the crowd gradually increasing on the street, her heart was troubled.

In the past few days, she has not gone home, nor has she gone to Mrs. Qin's, but sat in the treasure room to figure out a way with Shopkeeper Ye. Although there was still nothing she could do, she found that she didn't like the wrong person at all.

Shopkeeper Ye is really a responsible person.

Suddenly, she saw the shopkeeper Ye leave the shop surrounded by several yacha. After thinking about it, isn't that the direction of the county government?

Is this going to prison?

Thinking of this, Yao Wushuang hurriedly went downstairs and rushed out without thinking about it.

Seeing this, Gu Bo, who was guarding the door, suddenly said, "Wushuang girl, where are you going?" ”

"Uncle Gu, didn't you see it, Shopkeeper Ye was arrested by them, I'm going to stop them." Yao Wushuang said anxiously.

"Stop them? How to stop it? Are you trying to rebel? Gu Bo went against the norm in the past, and his voice suddenly became louder, "When I just went out, Shopkeeper Ye told me to tell you one thing, that is, from today onwards, you will be the real owner of Zhenbao Zhai, and I hope you will focus on the overall situation." ”

Hearing this, Yao Wushuang said angrily: "I'm not uncommon to be a host. If it weren't for me, things wouldn't have gotten to this point. I'm the one who should be taken away, so I'm going to tell my brother-in-law. ”

Gu Bo shook his head and said, "It's useless." This time, Shopkeeper Ye suffered this disaster for you, of course, because he couldn't bear to see you as a girl going to the county government to be watched, and he might even go to prison. Actually, there is another reason, that is, I don't want to embarrass my wife and make it difficult for the magistrate. Shopkeeper Ye is okay, even if he is in prison, he has the county magistrate to take care of him, so it's okay to think about it. When the money is gathered, the people come out. However, if it is you who is arrested, what do you want to know about the county lord? ”

Gu Bo's words made Yao Wushuang completely calm down.

As Gu Bo said, if he is arrested, where should Mrs. Qin's face go? How should Bai Zhi County face his cousin in the future?

The son-in-law arrested the relatives of his mother-in-law and sent him to prison, a topic that is terrifying just to think about.

However, if she is not dealt with impartially, how should Bai Zhi County deal with itself in the future and face the people of Qingshan County?

Thinking of this, Yao Wushuang suddenly sobered up, and he was no longer the reckless girl who shouted and killed at every turn. Instead of struggling here about whether to impulsively save people from the county government, it is better to find Gu Xixi and split up to collect money.

The Gu family and the Yao family combined, plus Zhenbao Zhai, there is still hope for 10 million taels. She knew that the Qin family's dowry was worth a fortune. It is said that there is a set of ruby-encrusted emerald jewelry, but this one is worth millions of taels.

Thinking of this, Yao Wushuang said to Gu Bo: "Uncle Gu, I was wrong just now, and I was impulsive and irritable again, and I won't be in the future." Now I'm going to collect some money, and I'll leave the shop to you to look at. ”

Seeing Gu Bo nodded, Yao Wushuang left and trotted all the way towards Gu's mansion.
