Chapter 972: Private
Chapter 972: Private
"Private." Suddenly, someone shouted.
Everyone focused their attention on the outside of the county yamen, and a middle-aged man walked directly into the yamen.
The middle-aged man said to Monsan: "I've seen adults." ”
Then he said to Qin Yuzuo: "Master Qin, I will have a private relationship with the merchants of the Western Regions on their behalf. ”
Qin Yu nodded and said, "Yes, 300,000 taels of gold, I need to see it tomorrow." ”
"I can give it to you today." The middle-aged man said, "But this is the end of the matter. ”
Qin Yu nodded and said, "I guarantee that the merchants of the Western Regions will not pursue this matter again, but if they have anything else to do with the anger and resentment, this is their matter with others."
At that time, the blame could not be placed on the Emperor's Mansion. ”
"Understand that from today onwards, they will all go to build the railway, and if the railway is not completed, they will not return to Xianyang City." The middle-aged man said.
Qin Yu thought for a while and said, "I'm sorry, I can't be the master of this matter, everything will be handled according to the laws of Great Qin."
I believe that these are not the only people who have been bullied by them, and once they unite and demand compensation, will you be able to handle it? ”
The middle-aged man's face sank and said, "I don't bother with this matter." ”
"Okay." Qin Yu stopped talking, and then said to Meng Shan: "My lord, since someone wants to be private with us, we accept it."
300,000 taels of gold, please put it on the merchant street in the Western Regions. Now I'll take my leave. ”
Immediately afterwards, Qin Yu left with all the merchants of the Western Regions, and the onlookers also left the county office.
But that didn't end there.
As Qin Yu said, the seven forces of Scar Man have not only bullied the merchants of the Western Regions, but almost all the merchants in Xianyang City have been bullied.
It's just that everyone knows that their backstage is the Bai family, so they all swallowed their anger.
But today, Qin Yu made a fuss, and the oppressed businessmen and ordinary people united to ask them for compensation.
In order to extinguish the anger of the public, the Bai family could only reluctantly compensate everyone.
The Bai family was also greatly injured because of this, if it weren't for Bai Siqi still alive, the Bai family would have withdrawn from the list of the three major families and become a second-rate family.
Bai Siqi's prestige is still very high, but he is old and can't last long.
But that's all for later.
After Qin Yu left with the merchants of the Western Regions and the onlookers, Meng Shan said to the middle-aged man: "Bai Wu, you dare to promise Qin Yu to compensate 300,000 taels of gold?" Do you think of the consequences? ”
The middle-aged man Bai Wu said in a deep voice: "This matter can only be compensated, otherwise the emperor will personally go out, and it will not only be a matter of 300,000 taels of gold at that time."
This matter is as simple as we think, since the matter has come out, our Bai family has to bear this matter.
Monshan, your Meng family can also do it yourself. Leave. ”
Then Bai Wu left the county office with Scar and others.
Meng Shan looked at Meng Yi and said, "Meng Yi, you and your brothers should all go and build a railway." You should give an explanation to the emperor, you can rest assured that your family and the families of your brothers will be taken care of by the Meng family. ”
Meng Yi immediately knelt down, and a group of officials followed.
They are all scapegoats, and everyone knows this, and the reason for kneeling is to hope that Monsan will do what he says.
"Don't worry, my lord, tomorrow my brothers and I will be like building a railroad."
Building railroads was very hard work, and at the moment only the very poor were working, as well as the criminals, the slaves, the foreign laborers.
If there is anyone who goes to work in the construction of the railway, then this person is not really out of food. Then you must have made a huge mistake and been punished.
Now Monsanto asked Meng Yi and others to go to build the railway, which is to tell the world that they have done something wrong. At the same time, he was also telling Emperor Qin An that they had been punished.
In this way, the emperor will not pursue them anymore.
If the emperor really pursues them, they will not only be ruined, but I am afraid that they will also implicate their families.
It's okay to suffer yourself, but it's not okay for your family to suffer.
Monsan waved his hand and let them go.
On the other side, Bai Wu left the yamen with Scar Man and others, and told Scar Man and a group of his subordinates that this matter was over, and let them go home and wait for the dispatch.
Subsequently, Bai Wu took the seven scar men to the Bai Mansion.
White House.
Bai Siqi sat on the head of the house, and below him knelt three men, these three were his sons.
At this time, in the reception hall, there were only Bai Siqi and the three sons kneeling on the ground, and no one else.
The subordinates, maids, and grandchildren were all called away by Bai Siqi and were not allowed to come.
Originally, after Bai Siqi asked people to inquire about the news, Ganluo came, and Ganluo told Bai Siqi his guess.
Bai Siqi asked his cronies Bai Wu to go to the county office, and as long as there was any matter to the Bai family, he would choose to calm things down.
And he himself called his three sons over, and before he could explain the reason, he asked them to kneel.
After Bai Siqi's three sons knelt down for some reason, Boss Bai asked, "Father, why are you so angry?" ”
"Angry?"
Bai Si snorted coldly, then picked up the teacup on the table and angrily smashed down Boss Bai, Boss Bai's forehead was instantly smashed with blood, not only that, but the tea was also directly splashed all over his face.
Bai Lao Er and Bai Lao San were suddenly stunned, and soon they all looked at Bai Lao Boss with concern.
"Brother, are you alright?" Bai Lao Er asked.
Bai Laosan looked at Bai Siqi with dissatisfaction and said, "Father, why are you doing this?" ”
"Why?" Bai Siqi said with a gloomy face, "What good things have you three done while I have been in Langya County?" Don't you know? ”
The three brothers of the Bai family immediately looked at each other, and their faces showed timidity.
"What, don't you speak?" Bai Si said angrily.
Boss Bai covered the wound on his forehead and said, "Father, you know. ”
"I don't want to know either." Bai Siqi said, "But this matter is now known to the people of the entire Xianyang City.
What's more important is that the emperor also knew about it and participated in it. ”
"What?" The three brothers of the Bai family were shocked at the same time.
"How did the Emperor know about this?" Boss Bai said, "We did this while the emperor was away.
Now that a street in the Western Regions has been closed for more than half a year, the emperor shouldn't know about it. ”
"Brother." Bai Laosan said, "Today, the merchant street in the Western Regions reopened. I've sent people to inquire about the situation, but the inquirer hasn't come back yet. ”
"Why didn't you tell me about something so important?" Boss Bai said angrily.
"Brother, isn't it just that they have reopened, what does it matter, not to mention that I have already sent someone to inquire about the situation." Bai Laosan said.
