Chapter 183: Purging the Booksellers

Lin Chong never dreamed that he would spend his life in that dark prison, but who knew that now he would become a county guard.

From a temporary worker to a weaver with black armor, this transformation is not something that ordinary people can have.

At least the Black Armor Army has been inherited from generation to generation, the father is dead, and the son is on top, such an advantage is that the Black Armor Army has been loyal for generations, so the Black Armor Army never recruits from outside.

Now, Lin Chong is an accident.

Lin Chong, who was wearing the uniform of the yamen, cautiously followed behind Lin Yu, looking expectant and a little scared at the same time.

The Black Armor Army is a county guard army in the county town, and it has an independent thousand households. In the provincial capital, that is, the governor's pro-army, although he also owns a thousand households, but he has the right to requisition and transfer the local thousands of households.

The Governor-General's Black Armor Army can directly transfer the Black Armor Army of the county guard under the provincial government to the provincial capital and carry out operations.

Now Lin Yugui is the magistrate of the Yamenti, and the appointment of the county guard Fang Rusong is very clear, so that he is in charge of the clerical pavilion guard and the black armor army thousand households.

It is a proposal and a thousand households, it can be said that the real power is in hand, and the life and death of one party are in charge, and Lin Yu also feels that life is wonderful.

At the same time that Sun Lu, the chief of the guard of the county guard, directly recruited troops from the guard station, Lin Yu and Lin Chong also went straight to the Thousand Households of the Black Armor Army.

At the same time, in the Yang Mansion in the south of Wuling County, the spy Yang Liuli reported the situation to Yang Zuokang, the head of the Yang family, in the study of the inner courtyard.

"The head of the family, Zhang's mansion has been confessed by Zhou Yuan, Lin Yu once led troops to break into Zhang Zhidong's house, but in the end he left in a hurry, most of them ...... The evidence was not sufficient to convict Zhang. ”

Yang Liuli told Yang Zuokang the news he had summarized, but as for the fact that the son of the family who didn't know which family was angry outside the Zhang Mansion, he chose to ignore it.

After all, according to the news sent back by his brothers, Lin Yu returned to the county guard mansion after asking the Zhang Mansion in vain, and did not go to other scholarly families.

Undoubtedly, Lin Yu was at a loss, and he couldn't help the monolithic eight booksellers.

"Don't be careless, closely monitor the Zhang Mansion's every move, especially when the people of the Zhang family go to the county guard's mansion, any suspicious behavior may be the Zhang Mansion's surrender to the county guard's mansion, you should pay special attention to ......"

Yang Zuokang always felt that things were not so simple, judging from Lin Yu's expectation that Zhou Yuan would come to the door to deliver silver, Lin Yu was a person who never did things that he was not sure of.

Yang Liuli said that Zhang Fu did not confess, but he felt ...... Zhangfu must have a later text.

"Yes!"

Yang Liuli raised his eyebrows, and heard the meaning of Yang Zuokang's words, probably that Zhang Fu was still very suspicious.

After all, the other six major booksellers, including his Yang family, and Lin Yu did not bring troops here, so why was the Zhang Mansion alone.

If the Zhang Mansion had close contacts with the County Shoufu afterwards, then it can be concluded that the Zhang Mansion was recruited by Lin Yu.

If this is the case, the seven booksellers will be in danger, and from the day they cooperated with each other to steal the poetry and articles of the Library, the eight booksellers have played the role of allies.

I remember clearly the account books of each family that sent money to the guard office of the clerical pavilion and the yamen of the official government, and it can be said that it is a copy for each person.

And every quarter, all of them are sorted out and checked once, and after the checks are correct, the major families can continue to enjoy the profits of dividends.

Of course, the most lucrative of them is the Yang Ji bookseller, because the business of the Yang Ji bookseller is all over Taiwu Province, and only the Yang Ji bookseller dares to eat this big cake.

Yang Liuli continued to go out to spy on the news, while Yang Zuokang was pacing in the study, and the gas posture he had cultivated over the years would not have been so flustered.

But I don't know why, but now I feel a little uneasy in my heart, and I always feel that something is wrong.

Zhou Yuan is a person who cherishes his son like his life, he can really confess? Since he has confessed, Chen Shunzhi, the former chief of the guard of the Pavilion, is now ...... Whether or not to go to jail.

If not, then he should think carefully about how to deal with Lin Yu, who is not afraid of tigers in newborn calves.

After all, this kind of person is the least afraid of death, and the silver can't be smashed, so he is the most difficult type of person to deal with.

"Come on, go to the outside of the Yamen Prison to take a good look and see if Chen Shunzhi, the former head of the guard of the Clerk's Pavilion, is in prison now, report quickly!"

Yang Zuokang gave this order, and his heart was much calmer, Chen Shunzhi was a direct bribe-taker, a crucial person, if Chen Shunzhi was arrested, there would be nothing to worry about.

There is no evidence, just relying on Chen Shunzhi and Zhou Yuan, even if they are convicted of stealing the poems and articles of the Scholar Pavilion, and as the guardian of the Scholar Pavilion, they are derelict in their duties, and they will also have their heads on the ground......

They were arrested and imprisoned, and it had little to do with whether they confessed or not, and neither horizontal nor vertical could affect the eight major booksellers.

I'm afraid that if Lin Yu doesn't take down Chen Shunzhi, it will give people the illusion that Chen Shunzhi will take the initiative to admit his guilt and atone for his crimes.

At that time, it is estimated that some of the other families who are panicked will follow suit and hand over the account books of the collusion with the guard station over the years, and it will be truly over.

"Report!"

"Chen Shunzhi of the Clerk's Pavilion Guards asks to see the head of the family!"

Without warning, the sound of the recital sounded, and Yang Zuokang, who heard the content, his legs weakened, and he almost fell to the ground, his eyes changed, obviously he didn't expect Chen Shunzhi to dare to come to Yang's mansion at this time.

This clearly shows that the Yang Mansion is going to provoke a commotion.

"Let him in!" Yang Zuokang said in a deep voice, his mood was not beautiful.

When Chen Shunzhi came in, his eyes were deep-set, and his face was decadent, obviously he hadn't slept well in the past two days, and his spirit was sluggish.

"Boss Yang, Lord Zhou was sent to prison, and you still don't make a move, do you want Lord Zhou to confess to us?"

Chen Shunzhi panicked, as the head of the guard of the Clerk's Pavilion, if Lin Yu made a deadly investigation, he would definitely be the first to suffer.

"You can go back to your home with peace of mind, at this time, you come to my mansion, it's too troublesome? Before you set up a banquet to entertain Lin Yu, why did you bring in the children of the eight major booksellers? You are clearly telling the county guard that there are no three hundred taels of silver here......

Yang Zuokang couldn't wait to strangle Chen Shunzhi immediately, just deal with Chen Shunzhi and Zhou Yuan in the troubled waters, but the children of the eight major booksellers actually ran over to support Chen Shunzhi in order to continue to maintain their interests.

Didn't this make it clear to tell Lin Yu that their booksellers colluded with the officials and businessmen of the Clerk's Pavilion Guard?

Chen Shunzhi shouted and said, "This is proposed by Boss Yang, your son Yang Ning, and the banquet money is still paid by him...... Even the 10,000 taels of silver tickets given to Lord Zhou were all your son Yang Ning's idea......"

Yang Zuokang's eyes are not good, if his eyes can kill, Chen Shunzhi has no bones.

Rubbing his temples with a headache, Yang Zuokang waved his hand and said, "You go down, this matter depends on how Lin Yu does it, we can only see the moves......

"Report!"

Suddenly, there was another sound of a report outside the study, and the voice was slightly eager, and said: "Qiyu clan master, Yamen Tizhi Lin Yu went to the Thousand Households of the Black Armor Army, according to the report of the spies in the county guard's mansion, Zhang's mansion ...... It's down!"

Poof!

Yang Zuokang's legs were weak, and he collapsed directly on the chair, his head was buzzing, and Zhang Fu lowered four words, which was no less than a life talisman.

In addition, Lin Yu went to the Thousand Households of the Black Armor Army, this is obviously going to lead troops to raid the house, there is no doubt that it ...... The Zhang family confessed the evidence first.

"Someone came, immediately sent a message to Zheng Hong, the county guard of Mayang County, saying that the matter was exposed, and asked him to take action......"

Yang Zuokang immediately made a decision and hurriedly ordered. It is true that businessmen are rich, but they have always been ...... Businessmen and officials will not end well at all.

PS: I received a notice that the update was too fast, and there was no way to PK, so for the sake of PK, I had to slow down the update. However, it shouldn't be much slower.
