The person who shouted, Shen Mu, in fact, Shen Mu didn't want to shout. Fang Cai Sun Yike's words were like thunder, and after he Shen Mu heard it, he was already a hundred zhang ice thorns hanging on the edge of the cliff, and he was in danger of being crushed at any time.

But he couldn't help but shout.

Zhu Biao desperately glanced at him, and Zhu Cheng desperately called for help to him...... I am already in the game and want to get out, just like Sun Yike's last sentence, "I'm afraid it's too late!"

Shen Mu wanted to be an official businessman, but he didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the court. But he always forgot that these two things seemed to be unrelated, and in fact they complemented each other.

Qiu Gong said fairly: "Yo...... Shen Mu, what do you have to say...... Didn't you make enough noise yesterday?"

Shen Mu said with a straight face: "Father-in-law Qiu, everyone! But I still remember that Shen Mu once said that killing people requires motives. Boss Zhu has no reason to risk killing people at all, if he is a murderer, there are many difficult things to explain. First, he didn't know President Mu and General Hong at all, second, with Boss Zhu's martial arts, how could he be General Hong's opponent, and third, there was no trace of fighting in this room, and the door lock was not prying open by external force. ”

Where did Gonggong Qiu listen to Shen Mu's analysis, even if what Shen Mu said was out of the blue, or what he said was the Tao, in his opinion, giving Nansang Guo an explanation was the most important thing.

And Zhu Cheng, this uninvited "assassin", is the person he most hopes to appear at present...... In this way, he can have an opportunity to invite merit and reward to the imperial court, and he can have an ambiguous explanation to Nansang!

As for who the real killer is, what is the motive for the killing? Does that matter?

Qiu Gong said fairly: "Shen Mu, our family has something to tell you...... Remember, this is the country of Yunzhao, and there is a place where there is a king's law! Our family has come here to get the sage's edict, and we must ensure the safety of the merchants of the eight countries. Now someone has entered the inn with a knife...... We don't care what his reasons are, let alone listen to anyone's explanation...... Shen Mu, remember your identity!"

When Shen Mu heard this, although he felt very unhappy, but at the moment, Gonggong Qiu had the biggest official position here, and he was a grass people, if he fought for him more than he lost, if he angered this old eunuch, then everything he had done before would be in vain......

Shen Mu had to take a step back and bowed: "What my father-in-law taught me is that the grass people talk a lot......"

Gonggong Qiu glanced at him and raised his voice: "Lord Zhu, what are you waiting for......

Seeing this situation, Zhu Biao knew that he could only send Zhu Cheng to the prison for temporary detention, and then slowly think of a way.

Zhu Cheng looked innocent, and when he was escorted down by the soldiers, he still kept shouting "wronged!"

He shouted all the way, but it became a bell to wake up the merchants.

Merchants from the eight countries gradually gathered and whispered to inquire what was going on.

Gonggong Qiu was full of spirits, thinking that he finally had a plausible explanation, and seeing that most of the merchants had gathered, he stood up, walked to the door and said loudly: "Everyone, the assassin who killed President Mu has been caught, everyone can rest assured." If you're ready to submit your quota today, how about you hand it over here?"

When everyone heard that the "murderer" had been caught, they were immediately relieved. They didn't sleep well yesterday, and if someone dies next to them, everyone will be a little scared.

Most of the people in Shen Mu's list yesterday had already studied it, they were all businessmen, and they knew that the business that Shen Mu said was feasible. But a new thing always has a process of adaptation, so everyone's purchase is relatively conservative.

The list submitted by the eight-nation mission was counted in one morning, and although President Mu Yuyi of Nansang died, there were other businessmen who followed suit, so it did not have much impact on the dumping of white tea.

According to the statistics, in addition to the slight adjustment of the original plan ordered by the merchants of the eight countries, the amount of Shen Mu's gift box was basically set at eight or nine out of ten, and the remaining less than 10% Avril received all according to the agreement.

After the advance payment of the eight countries was submitted, Shen Mu finally made up his mind completely, and when the spring thunder was shocking, the tea garden would be operational.

Tea picking, screening, tea making, packaging, transportation, delivery, cashiering......

At the beginning of the Tea Bureau, it was Qiu Gonggong.

In his opinion, he finally lived up to the grace of the saint, completed the saint's confession, and earned himself a lot of income by the way!

People are in good spirits on happy occasions, and after Gonggong Qiu paid the deposit again, he announced that he would hold a banquet in the evening to entertain all the businessmen.

Although it is understandable to hold a banquet to celebrate his achievements, it makes Zhu Biao hate Qiu Gonggong even more.

Once he gets busy, he Zhu Biao has no time to think of a way to rescue his brother!

This banquet is even more lofty than the welcome banquet, after all, after receiving the money, Gonggong Qiu's confidence is much harder.

This meal, Shen Mu also ate it without knowing the taste.

It's a little too weird...... If it is as Sun Yike said, the murderer's approach is completely meaningless.

Why do you want to introduce a scapegoat to let this matter be revealed? Doesn't this just give Gonggong Qiu and others a way to cover up the truth?

Why?

Why did it take President Mu and Hong Tao to die?

Why is the scapegoat pushed out by Zhu Cheng?

What are the benefits of such an approach?

Could it be that he thought too much, and the murderer just found someone to scapegoat him after making a temporary decision?

Zhu Cheng is by no means a murderer, he has no ability to kill at all. A merchant can run amok in his own shop, but let him carry a knife to kill...... He can't even compare to a fish and meat seller!

Who Zhu Cheng is, Shen Mu still knows it.

He has all the shortcomings of a businessman!

Timid and afraid, open-minded when he sees money, and mercenary......

Such a person can only be a small businessman. Compared with big players who can speak, are stable and old, hide deeply, are not shocked by honor and disgrace, and have strong self-control ability, he is too far behind.

It is impossible for such a person to kill people, let alone arrange the scene of President Mu's death so "comfortably"!

But who is the real murderer?

Possibly everyone at the banquet......

It was only at this time that Shen Mu began to truly admire those famous detectives, and only then did he understand how wonderful those magical methods of solving crimes were......

By the time the banquet ended, it was already dark. A crescent moon is rising, hanging above the eastern sky.

Tomorrow, the merchants of various countries will leave, and Xingzhai County will return to its original appearance.

After a while, I began to be busy picking and making tea.

If it's just like this, maybe everything is just right, and only Zhu Cheng, an unlucky guy, will feel the injustice of fate.

In order to prevent Zhu Biao from doing stupid things, Gonggong Qiu specially arranged for his accompanying soldiers to guard the prison.

After all, I want to give Nansang an explanation......

Zhu Biao could only cry and get himself drunk with a muffled voice! He had no choice, at this juncture, hundreds of pairs of eyes of businessmen from the eight countries were staring at this!

Seeing his brother "wronged" but powerless is the greatest helplessness.

Shen Mu left the Tea Bureau and returned to the inn.

Sun Yili was on the railing on the second floor, carrying a wine gourd, his face was slightly red......

"Mr. Shen, how's it going?"

Shen Mu shook his head and said, "It's strange, the real murderer has launched a scapegoat!"

Sun Yike pondered for a moment, took a sip of wine and asked, "Who?"

Shen Mu said: "Zhu Cheng, the younger brother of Lord Zhu, the branch secretary of the Tea Bureau!"

Sun Yike paced two steps, and suddenly said, "It's not good! There is a ghost ...... in this matter."

Shen Mu said: "What is Brother Sun referring to?"

Sun Yike said: "Has the defense of the Tea Bureau been withdrawn?"

Shen Mu nodded and said, "That's right! Tomorrow the merchants of the Eight Kingdoms will return...... Gonggong Qiu meant that the murderer had been caught, so there was no need for so many officers and soldiers to post again, only two teams of soldiers were left to patrol, and the province would put pressure on the merchants......"

Sun Yike hurriedly said, "How much did Brother Shen bring here?"

Shen Mu said: "There are about thirty people!Brother Sun, what's wrong?"

Sun Yike said: "It's too late to explain, Brother Shen, you take someone to the post station as soon as possible, so as not to startle the snake, try to hide your body first." I...... I went to the barracks to borrow soldiers...... What tokens do Brother Shen and that little prince of Murong have!"

Shen Mu saw his solemn expression, and heard him say this, and suddenly said: "There is no token, you can mention the brawl in Dingzhou Mansion, and you may be able to succeed ......."

Sun Yike said "yes" and staggered out of the inn.

Shen Mu didn't dare to slack off, called Ma Linzi and Zong Ming, and organized the team to drive to the post station.

Shen Mu is a smart person, Sun Yike is a little bit, he understands what is wrong with this matter.

It's very simple, Zhu Cheng is just a pretense and a piece of bait, and the big fish that the murderer really wants to catch is the merchants of the eight countries in the post station.

It's not President Mu alone, it's the entire eight-nation merchant group......

The riot caused by killing one person is nothing more than a shower, and killing a group of people is a great earthquake.

The team of hundreds of businessmen from the Eight Kingdoms, if Xingzhai County is wiped out by people in an unknown way, it will be enough for Yunzhaoguo to lose face, and if the Eight Kingdoms insist on an explanation, it will not cause a war that stops at lunch......

Take precautions before they happen!

Even if Sun Yike thinks too much about himself, it is worth it to take someone to stay up all night around the station......

He, Shen Mu, is already in the game, if there is really a war because of this, the court will ask the guilty to kill the order, Zhu Biao can't run away, Gonggong Qiu can't run away, and he Shen Mu can't run away......

What a serial scheme.

But I don't know how long those people have been planning...... If you think about it carefully, it seems that the layout has begun since the Peach Blossom Meeting.

Murong Hui was plotted against in order to drag him so that he could not lead troops to guard the post station. This plan is also called beating the grass and scaring the snake and knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger, the purpose is to let Murong Hui know that someone wants to do something wrong in the territory of Dingzhou Mansion.

Killing Mu Yuyi is to divert the tiger from the mountain, this tiger has two, one is Murong Hui, he has the previous siege and killing, when he sees Mu Yuyi's death, he thinks one or two, and is suspicious, lest this matter will cause Nansang Kingdom to attack, so he rushed back to the palace as soon as possible to discuss the arrangement. The second tiger is the official army of Zhennan Wangfu on Xishan Road......

I'm afraid that this person in the dark will have more schemes.

When encountering such an opponent, caution is the only way.
