Chapter 70: Poor Mountains and Bad Waters?
Even the villagers of Meishuling, who have never seen the world, have already understood after listening to Zhanhuai's words.
The cause of death of the relatives was not that the great virtue son was unfavorable to rescue, but that he was killed.
Those who harm others are those who open smuggling mines.
If you want to catch the murderer, it is useless to rely on the county magistrate alone, and you have to beg Old Lady Zhao and General Miao, the Lord Sun who has not spoken all this time is also like a big official, so let's beg them.
Dozens of villagers hugged me and scrambled to fall in front of Zhao Qingtai, Sun Wenyi and Miao Fuqing.
"Lord Qingtian, please, let us call the shots!"
The abbot put his hands together and chanted words in his mouth, and the other monks also recited the scriptures silently, and no one stopped the villagers or dissuaded them.
There were also several scribes and celebrities in Wuxi in the hall, and they were all shocked by this scene at this time, and they didn't know what to say for a while.
Zhanhuai and Huo Roufeng had already returned to their respective seats, and they were no longer needed for the next thing.
Sure enough, General Miao was the first to speak, and he said to Hu Zhixian: "Lord Hu, although Miao is already in the countryside, he still has the court in his heart, the case of Meishuling cannot be revealed, and the people are not at peace, if it is really related to private mines, it is a shocking case." Miao is not talented, there are still some people in the house who can be used, if Lord Hu does not dislike it, the Miao family is willing to contribute people and do their best for the court and the people. ”
Speaking of this, he looked at Zhao Qingtai with a smile: "Old lady Zhao, what do you think?" ”
This is clearly going to pull the Zhao family into the water.
The Zhao family is not an ordinary big family, they are the maiden relatives of the Empress Dowager Zhao.
They represent the royal relatives and relatives.
The wailing villagers all stopped crying, and the needles in the open hall could be heard, everyone held their breath, and all their eyes looked at Zhao Qingtai.
Zhao Qingtai slowly raised his eyelids, his eyes passed through the crowd, and he looked at Zhanhuai and Huo Roufeng in the corner.
His voice was slow, and he said word by word: "It is the responsibility of the Zhao family to contribute to the benefit of the township for the imperial court. ”
These two short sentences, a dozen words, will give the final word to this matter.
Regardless of whether there is a private mine or not, no matter who the person who opened the private mine is, the Zhao family and the Miao family will assist the county government to find it.
Although everyone knows in their hearts that the Zhao family and the Miao family can only do this if they want to prove their innocence, but at this point, who can say anything.
"Amitabha, Zhao Lao Shi General Miao Da is a benevolent and righteous person, the poor monk has two teachers and nephews, a little bit of landscape geography, the poor monk sent him two to take the monks in the temple together, Zhao Lao Shizhu, General Miao, Hu Da, see if it is feasible?"
Wanhua Temple not only has to participate in this matter, but also has to send people there, so it is also difficult for Hu Zhixian to take care of the dignity of Zhao Miao's two families.
The villagers thanked them in unison, Hu Si and Zhao Miao said yes again and again, and Sun Wenyi said: "Our Sun family is a scholar, but we can also spare a few people, tomorrow I will let them report to the county government and wait for Lord Hu to dispatch." ”
Seeing that Sun Wenyi, who had nothing to do with this matter, also spoke, several other famous families in Wuxi also expressed their willingness to contribute.
Huo Roufeng stood up again, she cleared her throat, and said loudly: "Our Huo family is a businessman, and we can only do business, I heard that in the past two or three years in Meishuling, most of the families are relying on women's families to raise silkworms and weave cloth to make a living, and our Huo family just has a few shops doing cloth business, so from this year onwards, every year at a price three percent higher than the market price, order the cloth of Meishuling, how many you have, the Huo family will collect as much as you want, for a period of five years, Huang Village Chief, you and the villagers to discuss, if you think it is appropriate, You can take my name card to the Wuxi branch of Yongfeng and have an interview with Cui Da's shopkeeper. ”
Huang Huasan was stunned, only the people of Meishuling knew how difficult their life had been in the past three years. Meishuling is far away from Wuxi, and the village can't do business with people in the city, so it's not rich. Three years ago, something like that happened again, when a village with only 60 households lost 30 young and strong men at once, and some families were separated from each other and their families were destroyed, leaving behind only old and weak women and children.
Growing up in a rich place like Wuxi, many of the children in the village have never even eaten rice. Capable women raised silkworms and weaved cloth, but none of the cloth merchants in the city would go to Meishuling to collect the cloth, and the cloth they had worked so hard to weave could only be sold cheaply by relatives in other villages.
Huang Huasan had never heard of the Yongfeng, he didn't know the Huo family, and he didn't even know what the market price of each piece of cloth was, but the kid surnamed Huo said that the Yongfeng could collect their cloth at a price three percent higher than the market price, and it would take five years to collect it.
In five years, in five years, there will be a group of children in the village who will grow into half-grown children, they are the new generation of men in Meishuling, and they are the pillars of the family.
When these children grow up, Meishuling will be the same as before, although it is not rich, but everyone can eat enough, the children can wear new clothes during the New Year's holidays, and the girls from other villages are willing to marry and have children.
"Yes, yes, we do!" Huang Huasan rushed out, but soon he reacted again, and looked at Huo Roufeng hesitantly, "Little young master, what you said can be counted?" ”
Huo Roufeng smiled and nodded at Zhang Shengping, Zhang Shengping held Huo Roufeng's name card in front of Huang Huasan: "Old man, if you take this name card and go to the Wuxi branch of Yongfeng No., you will know whether the words of my ninth master can be counted." ”
Huang Huasan knew a few words, and when he saw that there were only two words Huo Feng on this post, he was puzzled and didn't know what to say.
Miao Fuqing on the side laughed and said, "Miao has a false name in Wuxi City, is the old man credible?" ”
Huang Huasan already knew that this General Miao was a nobleman, a senior official who couldn't even be provoked by the county master, so he nodded again and again: "Trustworthy, trustworthy." ”
"Okay, then Miao will tell you, when it comes to big business, there are few companies in the entire Jiangnan that can surpass Yongfeng, this is the ninth master of the Huo family, it is true. On the day when the two of you sign the deed, Miao is willing to be a middle-aged person for you, Xiao Jiu'er, do you think it's okay? ”
Over the years, Miao Fuqing has been a middleman in Wuxi, Huo Roufeng smiled: "Then there is General Lao Miao." ”
At this time, a scribe surnamed Chang spoke: "Since your Huo family said how much cloth they have, you will collect as much as you want, are you not afraid that everyone else will hand over the cloth to them, and they will make another profit from it?" ”
This is the poor mountain and bad water out of the people.
Hearing this, Huang Huasan's old face turned pale with anger, and he said, "Xiao Gongzi Huo wants to help our village tide over the difficulties, how can we do such a thing?" ”
Huo Roufeng waved his hand at him, looked at Chang Wenshi, and said categorically: "Even if we take all the cloth from ten miles and eight villages, our Huo family can afford to put it away." ”
