Chapter 263: It's Killing Them (1st Update)
Xu Jing looked at Yao Shaoyin inquiringly.
Yao Shaoyin said in a deep voice: "Jiang Zhaoyin asked us to go to Wang's house to meet him quickly, and we will talk about it later." ”
The Wang family and the Xu family were in the same area, not far away, and several people soon arrived at the Wang family.
As soon as they got off the carriage, a servant led them to the front hall of the Wang family, but they saw that inside, in addition to the people of the Wang family, Xu Guangyi and Wen, who looked desperate, were also inside.
Jiang Shaobai saw them and said, "Coming?" Sit down, we need to discuss what to do next. ”
After everyone sat down, he said: "You should know the general situation, that kidnapper is extremely cunning, the first and third ransom letters, obviously to divert the attention of the official government, so that the people of the Wang family and the Xu family can smoothly put the ransom in the place he designated."
The place he designated to give the ransom was also in Qiulin Mountain, but it was not on the same side as the cabin where the children were originally held, and although he said that he was not allowed to send people to follow him, the Duke of Qian still sent people to watch from a distance.
For fear of being discovered, the man hid far away, and because it was night, he saw only a man with a masked face coming in a carriage, carrying all the gold bars and leaving, and did not see the two children. ”
Jiang Shaobai's face was slightly gloomy, "Because it is too far away, that person is obviously familiar with the nearby path, and after he turned left and right, the people sent by the Duke of Qian Guo completely lost him." ”
Yao Shaoyin was slightly stunned and said, "However, he is driving a carriage, as long as he can find the rut, he should not be ......."
"The people of Qian Guogong lost people on a fork in the official road, and the official roads near Xijing are all bluestone roads, that is, there will be ruts left, and they are also very shallow, and they are basically invisible."
Jiang Shaobai said: "The kidnapper obviously expected that someone would follow him, so he borrowed the official road to eliminate his traces just like when he kidnapped people." ”
Chen Guogong, who was sitting on the side, suddenly clenched his fist and slammed the small few next to him, the force seemed to directly interrupt the small one, and gritted his teeth and said: "That treacherous thief!" If it weren't for Jun'er in his hands, why would I be so restrained! ”
At this time, Xu Jing looked at Jiang Shaobai and said, "Yao Shaoyin just said, something worse happened, what is it?" ”
Jiang Shaobai glanced at Duke Qian and Xu Guangyi, who was as dead as ashes, "After the people of Duke Qian lost the kidnapper, they returned to the place where the ransom was traded, wanting to see if they could find more clues, who would have ......?"
He paused and said, "I found two more ransom letters there, asking the Wang family and the Xu family to prepare another 10,000 taels of ransom. ”
Xu Jing frowned slightly.
Do you want to continue to extort ransom?
Xu Guangyi suddenly, sat up straight like a corpse, and said with a pale face: "You guys...... You Xijing Mansion still haven't found a way to free the hostages, what are you doing! Isn't it the duty of your Xijing Mansion to solve these things?! ”
Yao Shaoyin was stunned for a moment, and his face couldn't help but tense because of anger.
Jiang Shaobai raised his hand to stop Yao Shaoyin's anger that was about to erupt, looked at Xu Guangyi and said coldly: "That's right, this case is now in charge of our Xijing Mansion, however, it is difficult to cook without rice, if you blindly hide from us and trade with the kidnappers, we have great ability, and we can't do anything!"
If Xu Shangshu and Chen Guogong don't believe in our Xijing Mansion and are unwilling to cooperate with us with one heart, I can only tell the Holy Lord, saying that this case is not capable of being solved by our Xijing Mansion Government! Xu Shangshu can choose another virtuous person! ”
Xu Guangyi's face turned pale suddenly, and Chen Guogong glared at him angrily, how did this guy become the secretary of the Ministry of Industry with such no eyesight?
Hurriedly stood up and said with a calm face: "We didn't mean to hide it from Jiang Zhaoyin, we were just too worried about our own children, so we would make a mistake in judgment for a while, and I hope Jiang Zhaoyin will understand."
This kidnapper is not only extremely cunning, but also greedy, and he is not satisfied with 20,000 taels of gold bars! If we keep letting a lion like him open his mouth, we will not have enough property for him!
What's more, the most important thing is that this kidnapper obviously doesn't even have the most basic faith, even if we take out all the family property, it is not necessarily that he will put Jun'er back intact.
Please also ask Jiang Zhaoyin to think of a way to see how to save Jun'er, our Wang family...... I can't thank you enough. ”
In the end, Chen Guogong experienced strong winds and waves, but his brain was confused for a while, and he quickly reacted.
As soon as he finished speaking, Wen cried out loudly: "No matter what, we can't let that kidnapper be so unscrupulous anymore!" Our Family...... Where can our family come up with a ransom of 10,000 taels, the ransom of 10,000 taels at the beginning has already touched the lifeblood of our family......"
A century-old hairpin family like the Wang family, taking out 20,000 taels at once will hurt his muscles and bones.
Not to mention Xu Guangyi, a gentleman who stands out from the last small family, not to mention counting on the family to help, the family is lucky that he didn't suck his blood in turn!
Don't say 20,000 taels, even 10,000 taels will cost them their lives!
Originally, they didn't have the ability to raise 10,000 taels of gold bars in such a short period of time, but Xu Guangyi begged Chen Guogong with a shy face and wrote down an IOU, so that the Wang family helped them get the 10,000 taels together.
Xu Guangyi's face quickly changed, and he said, "Madam......"
"What I'm saying is the truth, what do you stop me from doing! If you weren't useless, would we be so aggrieved?! ”
Wen apparently broke down and roared back.
Xu Guangyi's lips trembled slightly, and suddenly, he glanced at Xu Jing with a very weak heart.
Xu Jing secretly sneered.
What is this man thinking, she still doesn't know? The reason why he was able to prosper all the way from a small county order to the Ministry of Industry was because several projects he presided over were perfect, and almost every time they exceeded the expectations of the imperial court.
However, if the Xu family had not been supporting him with a large amount of money behind his back, relying on the pitiful amount of money from the imperial court, he would be helpless even if he was Li Bing's reincarnation.
In order to support him, the original owner's mother-in-law, Xu, even pasted all the dowries.
However, in the memory of the original owner, there was such a conversation, when Xu Guangyi cheekily asked Xu Shi to ask her dowry for the construction of the project, Xu Shi asked suspiciously: "Didn't Daddy give you a sum of money before?" Besides, the imperial court also has money to pull it out, so it won't run out of money so soon......"
Because this incident happened when the original owner was very young, what Xu Guangyi said later, the original owner can't remember clearly.
But it was enough for Xu Jing to realize that Xu Guangyi must have deducted the money given to him by the Xu family before, and most of the Xu family's current family property is estimated to be sucked from the Xu family!
Xu Jing didn't care whether Yu Hanguang could be rescued safely, in her opinion, this was all the retribution of the Xu family.
It's just that now that she has taken over the case, no matter what private emotions she has, she must put the case first.
Xu Jing didn't bother to continue to look at Xu Guangyi, and said, "Jiang Zhaoyin, I think there is something wrong with this kidnapper. (End of chapter)
