【Chapter 60】Unraveling the bottom

The second dog said angrily, "You don't have to deceive people too much......

"You are a deceitful person, is it a deception, or a deception?" Wei Linyuan did not show weakness in his strong words, "Your mother died a long time ago, your father was a dung picker, you were originally a dog raised by Boss Chen of the Nanping caravan, and you were placed in this position to fool the generals from the imperial capital." Am I right? ”

The master of the Chamber of Commerce was shocked at this time, "There is such a thing? ”

Seeing that Ergou's identity had been completely revealed, he immediately wanted to escape; However, several big men rushed in from outside, and in a few strokes subdued him and tied him aside.

"I was afraid that Shi Bo would blame me for many things, and would not lend me a rope; But I was really afraid that the dog would hurt people, so I had to invite a few family members to guard outside. Wei Linyuan deliberately learned the tone of the master of the Chamber of Commerce, and said unhurriedly, "Since you uncles and uncles are safe, I can rest assured." ”

He was so ashamed to speak, but the row of local tycoons on the side could only blow their beards and stare and sulk.

Wei Linyuan smiled unabashedly, and sneered, "This Zhang Ergou, as far as I know, was originally just a porter, following a caravan east of Chilu Mountain. He made a look of disgust, and added, "But I don't know what kind of luck their caravan hit, but they actually got a piece of philosopher's stone, and they became bolder." A few months ago, he actually used the philosopher's stone as a guide and released a message to ask us about the meaning of the Wei family. ”

"Oh?" Yuan Zhizhi, "Didn't Wei Gongzi say before that he was not interested in being a second-class dealer?" ”

"Exactly." Wei Lin said, "However, the philosopher's stone is just a bait, the other party is doing everything possible to tie up with my family, and what he really wants to sell is actually a batch of thousand-year-old gold that is claimed to be mined from the snowy mountains." It was very godly, and it was said that it was stained with some fairy spirit. Hi, I haven't heard of it in Xiliang for so many years. ”

Yu Mochen said in his heart that there are those legends, but Wei Linyuan's family touts his identity as a Qi country every day, and I'm afraid he is not interested in caring about the stories made up by the Tusu people.

When Yuan Pingzhi heard this, his smile narrowed a little, and he said, "Smuggler Chitose Gold? That's a violation of law and discipline, and you can't do it. ”

"That's what the general said. We are serious businessmen, so we naturally understand this truth. Wei Linyuan explained, "At that time, the person who contacted us was a stronger figure than Zhang Ergou, and he only said that he hoped to use the relationship between our Wei family and the government to sell this batch of red goods as soon as possible." ”

The rise of the Wei clan in recent years is indeed related to their friendship with the Fu clan, one of the Eight Pillar Kingdoms, which is also a reasonable thing.

Wei Linyuan also said, "Although this matter is a little tricky, when the interests are high enough, there will always be people who are willing to take a look." In business, this is human nature after all, and please don't joke about it. Seeing that no one questioned it, he continued, "It's just that I was delayed in Linhai County at that time, so my family sent my cousin to Nanping to see the situation." It didn't take long for my cousin to commit suicide. ”

Several businessmen present were full of suspicion, and they heard the Ergou shout, "Your cousin committed suicide, it's none of our business!" ”

"Self-killing, don't you understand?" Wei Linyuan mentioned the death of his relatives at home, he was sad and angry, and said after a while, "I later investigated in many ways, and I learned that the caravan in Nanping didn't know how to coax my cousin to buy all the thousand-year-old gold. When I received it in the warehouse, I found that it was a batch of fake gold mixed with a large number of impurities, and the government did not accept it at all. My cousin, though clumsy, was a haughty man after all, and after this blow, he collapsed and finally destroyed himself. ”

Yu Moji finally understood why Wei Linyuan always had a mean tone. His cousin, though he was at fault, did not sin unto death in any case. Wei Linyuan was sad about the loss of his relatives, and he was indignant in his heart, and it was not easy to maintain his sanity when he came to Xingshi to ask about his crimes.

The master of the chamber of commerce pondered for a while, and finally said, "I didn't know there was such a thing. Now that you are in Qiongmen, you might as well come forward and check this matter, if the matter is true, this two ...... Zhang Ergongzi is really an impostor, so let Wei Gongzi dispose of it. ”

"Shibo cares, and the younger generations are grateful." Wei Linyuan didn't mean "grateful" in his tone, he just continued, "However, even if the younger generation is stubborn, there is no reason to trouble Shibo with his own family affairs. I'm here just to remind you. Even if a businessman is very profitable, if he has a little knowledge, he will not use this kind of means that I can only come back and forth. Especially the Chitose Gold is a government thing, what is the reason for this group of people to have to mix things into the Chitose Gold? ”

Everyone stopped talking. It seems that this matter is indeed not trivial, and no one dares to say anything about it.

In the end, it was Yuan Zhizhi who opened his mouth. I only heard from him, "I happened to hear recently that people in this area colluded with the mountain bandits in Juping Mountain, so that the mountain bandits also had a thousand years of gold, and they could even attack the army of Daqi with armor and artillery. He glanced at Zhang Ergou and said, "I don't have a clue, after all, although the people are allowed to transport thousand-year-old gold, the flow and output must be reported to the government." However, the batch in the hands of the mountain bandits seemed to have been conjured out of thin air. ”

As soon as he mentioned this, the businessmen present gradually understood the meaning, and when they looked at Zhang Ergou, they also had a lot of hostility to draw a clear relationship.

Yuan Zhizhi continued, "Now that I think about it, if you want to secretly embezzle a part of the millennial gold while ensuring that the output reported to the government remains unchanged, wouldn't it be an excellent way to incorporate impurities?" In this way, the caravan where Zhang Ergou is located should not be able to escape the relationship. Come. ”

As soon as he gave the order, a group of sergeants poured in outside and kidnapped the Zhang Ergou away.

Yuan Pingzhi bowed to the master of the Chamber of Commerce again, and said, "We have been delayed in the Chamber of Commerce for the past few days, which has really caused a lot of trouble to the master. It's just that the matter is not over yet. I, a protégé Xiaoyu, will continue to verify this matter with Wei Gongzi in the future. At that time, if there is something to disturb and offend, please don't blame the master. ”

The master of the Chamber of Commerce could only smile bitterly. From today onwards, he may have a lot of shadows on the words "don't be surprised".

Yu Mochen followed Yuan Pingzhi and Wei Linyuan out, was silent for a while, and finally opened his mouth and asked, "So, the two of you have actually discussed it a long time ago, right?" ”

"It's not very early." Yuan Zhizhi, "It's just that when I checked the thousand-year-old gold in the hands of the mountain bandits, I suddenly heard that Linyuan was also tracking down a batch of thousand-year-old gold in Qiongmen these days. First, I haven't seen Lin Yuan for a long time, and I want to talk to him; Second, I also think that these two things may have something in common, and it is worth discussing with Linyuan, which is why there is a later arrangement. He said, a little embarrassed, "This is really done in a hurry. I temporarily notified Yan Zheng to send troops over, but I almost didn't catch up. Luckily, my position was facing the chamber of commerce's bell, and I could barely hold the time. ”

Wei Linyuan smiled, "It's nothing, anyway, I've already taken that Ergou." It was only a matter of time before the caravan behind him was dug out. ”

"I see." Yu Mozhen sighed, "But since the two of you have already taken over, why does the general have to bring me here?" She was really puzzled. Yuan Pingzhi coaxed her to be a protagonist before, but now it's good, but he just asked her to be a spectator?

"When I told you about it, I wasn't really sure." Yuan Pingzhi smiled apologetically, "Besides, Mr. Lu asked me to practice you in all aspects, I think this is also a good opportunity." I didn't tell you beforehand, so please forgive me. ”

Of course, Yu Moji couldn't blame him.

It's not the first time that Yuan has concealed it from her. She had already thought very clearly, as long as Yuan Ping was willing to explain to her after the incident, she would not be too sad in her heart.

I saw Yuan Pingzhi pause slightly, and then said, "But if you want to talk about it, you really can't do it without you." I'm going to get up the Jiayuan River in the next few days, and I have some important things to deal with, so I can only start for you first. After that, whether you can dig out the caravan that smuggles thousand-year-old gold by the roots depends on your and Linyuan's ability. ”

Yuan has always been calm and decisive in doing things. Even when he took down Zhang Ergou, although he claimed that he did things in a hurry, in Yu Moji's opinion, he could be called flexible and flexible.

Therefore, since he decided to go to the Jiayuan River, he did not delay for a day, and immediately set off from Qiongmen.

Leaving only a sluggish residual ink mark, Yuan Yizhi's last sentence "Everything can be asked about Linyuan" was hovering in his mind, and he stared at Wei Linyuan in a daze.

So much had happened on this day, and Yu Moji didn't know what to say for a while. She thought about it, and finally said to Wei Linyuan, "Your cousin's business...... I'm really sorry. ”

Since the two of them met at the Qiongmen Chamber of Commerce, they have not spoken alone. Wei Linyuan obviously didn't expect Yu Moji to say this first sentence, paused for a moment, and then smiled bitterly, "What do you have to be sorry for?" I have to blame my cousin for this incident. If he hadn't been confused by the huge profits, his brain wouldn't have turned around, and he wouldn't have even lost himself. ”

Yu Mochen knew that Wei Linyuan valued family affection the most, and she was silent for a while before she slowly spoke, "I understand." Her voice was low, "I've lost loved ones too. ”

Wei Linyuan's eyes moved, but he still folded his arms and said very calmly, "Don't talk about these sad things." There was a bitter taste in his smile at the moment. In the past, this was definitely not the expression that would appear on Wei Linyuan's face. "Anyway, I'm going to get revenge on my cousin. Now that we have embarked on the road of doing business, we cannot have a reputation that must be compared and repaid in vain. ”

He said this decisively, and Yu Moji couldn't help but sigh when he heard it.

Wei Linyuan is no longer the unlearned but very righteous gentleman in the martial arts hall in the past, and Yu Moji is no longer a handyman who is busy getting up early and sweeping the floor. The two of them have now flown to a wider world; The difficulties they have to face are no longer something that can be solved by asking someone to help them do their homework and do things for someone for a small amount of money.

Yu Mozhen shook his head, trying his best to put these useless emotions behind him, and as soon as the words changed, he said, "So, what should we do next?" ”
