Chapter Forty-Eight: Izumo Building 2

readx;? On the second day, due to the postponement of the bidding meeting, everyone was not very anxious, and the Zeng adults of the Jiangnan Weaving Institute personally promised that they would not delay the merchants who had successfully bid for the goods to be loaded into the ship, and everyone began to get busy as if they had taken a reassuring pill. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It's just that the merchants who are waiting to bid for jade and tea are suffering, but the Jiangnan Weaving Institute is also an official government after all, so what can I do if I have a complaint in my heart? I have to bear it silently.

The fat merchant was naturally busy with his boat of rice wine, because he still had to participate in the next two bids, so he was not in a hurry to leave, and only arranged the most trusted steward under his subordinates, and then took the bookkeeper arranged by Jiangnan Weaving.

When Lu Nancheng and a few people arrived, his ship happened to be ready, and he took some silver and was giving it to the bookkeeper.

After the decoration was completed, the fat merchant turned around and greeted a few people.

"What was that just now?" Lu Nancheng is now familiar with the process of the bidding conference, but he doesn't understand this so well, so he asked casually.

"Oh, the one just now, it was sent by Jiangnan Weaving, and we follow our ship to keep accounts, so as to prevent those who are hungry for profit from reporting wrong accounts. "Lu Nancheng is right to think about it, this government always has to take more precautions.

A few people chatted a few more words, and began to look for the wharf where the porcelain goods were loaded, and not far away they heard that there was a person who begged grandpa to tell grandma back and forth, and then looked, isn't this the merchant who bid for the porcelain transportation route for 9 million taels yesterday, and begged the foreman in charge of labor here back and forth, and went there to beg the official servant of the government, but both sides were unmoved, and there was no reaction.

"Is this ......?" Lu Nancheng was also a little stunned when he saw this scene, how could there be a posture of shouting in the lobby yesterday, this look of bowing and praying everywhere really made people fall a little down.

"That's why I'm talking about it, but do you see what?"

"Looking at this, I'm afraid what the third-layer businessman has done?" Without waiting for Lu Nancheng to speak, Shen Yuan had already expressed her guess in her heart, and when she heard the fat businessman's remarks yesterday, she already had a plan in her heart.

is different from Lu Nancheng, who was flattered when she was a child, and she was a royal nobleman wherever she went, and she was inevitably arranged to remove the obstacles in front of her, but she had experienced this kind of situation of oppressing people with privileges, not to mention when she was outcast, even in the Shen family, those heirs with a status above her, how could they not use this kind of thing to suppress her.

Lu Nancheng's words to Shen Yuan were a little surprised and a little unmeaningful, after all, he knew that this Concubine De had always been a brain, and such a reaction was reasonable, but it seemed that this Concubine De knew a lot about these behaviors in the market, and this was the part that made him a little surprised.

Since the last unexpected conversation in the palace, this is the second time that she has given him a feeling that he is out of his control, this feeling makes Lu Nancheng a little uncomfortable, he frowned, and always felt that maybe he was looking for a chance to check the Shen family well, but his face was still not obvious, and he continued to chat with the fat businessman.

"Yes, the businessman who couldn't grab the third floor of the target must have a grudge, and naturally he won't let this businessman go. The fat merchant went on to recount the dire situation facing the merchant.

A few people also understood, after looking at the state of the merchants on the different floors before, whether the merchants on the three floors are local or not, some of the officials and localities want to save face, so in this way, isn't this businessman about to be killed? Now no one pays attention to the laborers hired everywhere to help carry the goods.

The sun above him was gradually setting in the west, and the merchant was still running around begging for mercy and sweating profusely, but the result was still not optimistic, and many people just stood there with cold eyes and watched, and did not say anything.

"And that's not all...... The more ruthless is still to come, so let's watch. The fat businessman looked at the person from a distance as if he was talking to himself, and seemed to be talking to Shen Yuan and the others beside him.

Come to think of it, this loading and unloading Jiangnan Weaving Institute has clear regulations, if this is the time limit, I don't know what awaits him......

On the side of the parade troops, Emperor Zhaohua had already ordered to stay at this post station for three days, and until now, this holy car had not entered the territory of Jiangnan, which made those officials of Jiangnan County even more nervous.

This anxious waiting is the most torturous, so that they listened to the county guard to appease and prepare to wait quietly, and a few people who had been quiet for a while, began to secretly poke and poke and prepare again, this time the county guard Zhou Fucheng couldn't control them, so he had to let them prepare, not wanting this to be a thing to win the sacred heart, but speeding up their road to the guillotine.

Gusu City, Basho Garden.

Lu Nancheng kept recalling the words in the fat businessman's mouth, thoughtfully, he still thought that this Suzhou was a quiet place, and he didn't want to think that there was indeed no road here, and there were bullies colluding with the government to bully men and women, but something that surprised him even more came out.

Soon, the shadow who was sent to investigate the accident of the Jiangnan Weaving Institute yesterday came back and reported the matter to Emperor Zhaohua in detail.

Ying Yi looked at the fist mark that was deeply trapped, swallowed the spit in his mouth, and didn't dare to speak, but this county magistrate of Suzhou was really even more hateful than the county order that pitted the labor of the common people they encountered some time ago.

Lu Nancheng was depressed and couldn't vent, Shen Yuan brought him supper as he did on weekdays, and he felt different when he entered the door, the mood of the son of heaven seemed to be greatly affected, this time he sat there sulking, and then saw that there was a guard kneeling there without saying a word.

This kind of situation, since they decided to make an unannounced visit, is also common, Shen Yuan is also used to a lot, at first he was also shocked by the waves of anger emanating from Emperor Zhaohua's body and did not dare to approach, but as the saying goes, this person, it's not strange to see it, isn't it?

Therefore, looking at Emperor Zhaohua like this, she didn't say much, walked over, put the supper on the table, this time she also saw the deep fist print, no matter how she thought about it, it would not be the eldest brother of the guard who did it, then it is very likely that the emperor himself smashed it, but when he came yesterday, he didn't have it, and then he thought of the guard kneeling there, it seems that it was really what the guard said that made the saint angry.

After speculating like this, Shen Yuan slowly walked behind Emperor Zhaohua, pinched his shoulder, and rubbed his nerves with his Qianqian jade fingers, such a series of actions made Emperor Zhaohua's expression much better, and the person was not so tense, he relaxed, stretched out his hand to pull Shen Yuan in front of him, and leaned in.

As soon as the shadow knelt down and saw that he was hugging this side, he naturally wouldn't stay here to obstruct the master's eyes, and slowly withdrew quietly.

On the second day, Shen Yuan quickly learned the reason for the postponement of the bidding conference from Lu Nancheng's mouth.

The fat merchant was right, this is not a problem with the goods, it turns out that the Jiangnan weaving institute is involved in a wide range of industries after all, so some production is contracted to private individuals, and then handed over to the local government to send people to supervise.

But at the end of last year, there was a problem with one of the jade mining farms, and the privately contracted mine owners often deducted some money from it when they arranged for workers to mine.

At the end of the year, I don't know if he made a mistake in the outer room he raised outside or lost a lot of money in the casino, anyway, he replaced the gunpowder used to bomb the mine, and replaced the gunpowder made by the government that Jiangnan Weaving requested to buy and allocate money for, and replaced it with black powder that he went to the small workshop that did not reconcile with the law.

The first few times were fine, but once it was going to blow up six times, but in the end there were only four sounds, which didn't blow up, and I don't know if it was gunpowder or an inferior product that didn't sound or something went wrong, so he drove a few people to check the two places where the gunpowder was buried without sound.

This time, it's terrible, those people went and never came back, it turned out that the gunpowder still exploded in the end, but this time, the mine owner has a big deal, and mining jade itself is indeed a risky job.

In a year, there are always a few accidents, one or two people died, but this time the explosives were replaced by him privately, and four or five people died at a time, which is a bit troublesome, those miners are mostly from a village, and when they make trouble, a village has run to him to make trouble, and he is still doing a non-stop posture of not giving an explanation, going on strike without compensation, and going on strike without compensation.

This gave him a headache, but here, the Jiangnan Weaving Institute has not yet come to pick up the goods, and he has little spare money in his hand, so he can't get the silver even if he wants to accompany him.

I had to take out less than five taels of silver per household first, appease the villagers who had almost lost their relatives, and talk to the village chief before agreeing to wait for the government to pick up the goods and then come to him for the silver to be compensated.

What I didn't expect was that the owner of the mine was also a bastard, and he had been dragging on without compensating those households, no, the Jiangnan Weaving Institute came to pick up the goods, and those workers saw it, smashed some jade that had not yet been carved, and completely made a mess, and now it is a mess.

Not only is there a gap between the goods and the expected quantity, but there is a problem, and now the miners have detained the officials in charge of the jade, not to say that they are threatened with force, but they are kneeling there to wipe their tears all day long, and those who have no relatives are crying and grabbing the ground, and they have to ask for an explanation, otherwise they will make trouble at this bidding meeting.

This trouble to the bidding will not be more serious, this Jiangnan weaving institute thought, now this Zhaohua Emperor is about to arrive at the boundary of the south of the Yangtze River, if the emperor knows about such a trouble, no one can get good, so I have to stop the bidding meeting here, to appease those villagers.

"The Jiangnan Weaving Institute is not wrong, it is indeed that the official has something wrong and almost let the miners beat him together. Lu Nancheng said, sneering, and silently made a note in his heart to the local official in Suzhou.
