Chapter XVIII Buying and Selling Illicit Salt

By the time Mrs. Zhao heard that the Wei family had agreed to divide the family, Lin Xing had already written the deed of separation, which listed the Zhao family's property and calculated the business of the big house and the second house clearly.

"You've only been here for a few days, how do you know so well?" The old lady's eyes were dizzy, and she pointed to the deed in front of Lin Xing and asked.

"Do you need to ask? Of course, it's because the master has prepared it in advance. Lin Xing bent her eyes and smiled like spring, "As long as the old lady signs here, the two rooms of the big house will be separated from now on, and you can live a good life with your baby son for a lifetime." ”

Old lady Zhao looked strange, but he was not as resistant as Wei, when he saw that the shop for the second room on the deed was on the best street in Yuzhou City, his heart completely settled down, and he held the pen tightly.

He has not taken care of business for many years, and most of the Zhao family's industries can only flourish under Zhao Yi's care.

Even because Zhao Yi once gambled, he lost the entire Zhao family, so that the Zhao family's shop had nothing to do with him later.

Therefore, Mrs. Zhao also knows very well that once the family is separated, she will not be able to share any good things.

But Lin Xing still has the foresight to give him and Zhao Jing the best shops in Taihe Street.

As for the other shops, Mrs. Zhao didn't care.

Since Zhao Yi's death, those shops have not lasted long in his hands, and even if he stays in his hands, he can't make a lot of money, not to mention that he embezzled a lot of silver taels from the shops, and those shops are now a leaky hole, and they can't be plugged with anything.

Seeing Lin Xing's slow and logical appearance, Old Lady Zhao sneered in his heart, when he really signed the deed of separation, the only person who would regret it at that time could only be Lin Xing!

"Since you say so, I will sign it, and if you have a bad life in the future, don't blame me." He sneered, and picked up his pen to sign.

But before the pen fell, suddenly two people outside shouted: "Madam, it's not good! The shopkeeper of the shop in the east of the city said that there was a flaw in the accounts, and there were 50,000 taels of pairs......"

"There was also a problem with the shop in the west of the city, and someone embezzled 30,000 taels of silver......"

"The 7,000 taels of cash in the shop in the south of the city have been embezzled, and now they can't pay for the goods, and the material dealer is looking for it!"

Wave after wave of people gathered at the door of Zhao's house.

The eyes of the people who were watching the show suddenly lit up, and they made a way for the shopkeepers to go in and make their words clear.

It wasn't until all the shopkeepers of the shops gathered together, without exception, that it was because the silver taels of the shops were misappropriated and the holes owed could not be blocked, so they were forced to find them helplessly.

"No wonder that old thing agreed to sign so easily, it turned out that the Zhao family's silver had already been emptied by him!"

"This little lady is also quite miserable, what do you have to make up for so many holes."

And Wei was still sick and looked like he was about to faint, and when he heard that there was a hole in the shop that could not be filled, he was immediately overjoyed and forced Lin Xing to sign the deed.

"Just now, you said in person that you wanted to split up, don't you want to admit it now?" Wei is aggressive.

Lin Xingxing's eyes narrowed slightly, and her willow eyebrows swept lightly, "If you want me to sign, tell me who embezzled those silver taels." ”

After she finished speaking, seeing that Old Lady Zhao wanted to deny it, she continued: "If you tell the truth, I will not pursue these things again. If you don't say it, I will go to the government and let the government decide the case personally. ”

Wei Shi was beaten in the official mansion, and he refused to go over at this time.

She looked at Old Lady Zhao and asked, "Did you embezzle it?" ”

"What is misappropriation? That's my Zhao family's shop, how about using a little money! Old lady Zhao stiffened her neck and said with spittle.

As soon as these words came out, the people who were watching the show outside couldn't help but gasp.

It's really for the rich and unkind, for the old and disrespectful!

"Is Zhao Jie really his grandson? Even if you don't think about your daughter-in-law, you have to think about your grandson, right? ”

"That is to say, he took all the silver, what will Zhao Jie do in the future? Gee! Rich people are really unkind, and they can even calculate their own blood relatives. ”

The more the words outside were spoken, the more unpleasant they became, but Old Man Zhao had no time to take care of it, so he urged: "What should be said has been said, you hurry up and sign it!" ”

"Sure enough, it's you." Lin Xing smiled lightly, and after speaking, she happily signed the deed of separation, "From now on, Zhao Yi and Zhao Jie have no relationship with the Zhao family. ”

Seeing that she signed the deed, where could Mrs. Zhao still care about what Lin Xing was talking about? She took the deed and walked out.

But halfway through, he saw Yang Pei'an walking in with an official errand.

In front of him, Yang Pei'an pointed with his hand, "Arrest the person for me!" ”

"Are you mistaken? The old man didn't commit a crime, what are you doing to arrest the old man? "That's what I said, but Old Lady Zhao's face was really pale.

Everyone else thought that he was a thief with a weak heart and embezzled the Zhao family's money to be so afraid, but Lin Xing knew that what Old Lady Zhao was most afraid of was the exposure of poisoning.

But now she doesn't plan to settle this account with Mrs. Zhao.

Yang Pei'an's gaze swept over Lin Xing, and finally stopped at the shopkeeper of the Zhao family, "How many silver taels are missing from your respective stores?" ”

The shopkeeper reported it again, adding up to a total of 200,000 taels of silver.

"That's right!" Yang Pei'an stared at Old Lady Zhao with a gloomy face, "Someone has bought and sold a total of 200,000 taels of silver through thousands of gambling houses, and the payment is the Huitong silver ticket of your Zhao family firm!" Come on, arrest the Zhao family! ”

The yacha immediately stepped forward to arrest people, and the frightened old lady Zhao spoke incoherently: "The grass people are wronged!" The old man didn't! The old man is no longer the Zhao family...... It's her! It was that poisonous woman who framed me! ”

"Fang Cai personally admitted that you embezzled the silver taels, and the official heard it clearly outside, do you dare to quibble?" Yang Pei'an snorted coldly, flicked his sleeve robe, "Take him away!" ”

"It can't be! My old lady didn't interfere in business at all, it must have been done by Zhao Yi! My lord! Wei stepped forward and rolled around, holding Old Lady Zhao's arm and not letting him go.

"Have you two had their conscience eaten by dogs? Dirty water poured on a dead man? Yang Pei'an was so angry that he kicked on Wei's heart, "When the sale of illicit salt happened, Zhao Yi had been dead for a month, did he return from his soul to embezzle the silver taels?" ”

The old couple was completely dumbfounded.

Old lady Zhao didn't expect that he would split up his family, and he would be able to pull out so many things, shout that he was wronged, and was taken back to the government prison.

Lin Xing took the deed and walked out with a group of guards, and when she passed by the gate, she asked Uncle Zhong to take ten taels of silver and hand it to Wei, with a sad face, "You have embezzled the silver taels, and now I have no money to use, these ten taels, I will honor you for Zhao Yi." ”

After saying that, she didn't look at Wei again, got into the carriage and left.

When the carriage was far away, she lifted the curtain and asked Uncle Zhong, "What's the matter with buying and selling illicit salt?" ”

Uncle Zhong was also confused, "Isn't it your arrangement, Madame?" ”

Of course not!

Lin Xing groaned and commanded, "Death Prince's Mansion." ”

She doesn't know, but Zhou Yan must know!
