It is impossible to punish adults

Chapter 114
"It's more than half lower than the listed price?" Mu Liuyun had never heard of this matter before, but now she was taken aback when she heard it. What does it mean to sell at a price that is less than half of the listed price, "The shopkeeper of Zhang Ji has encountered some difficulties, so it is based on raising money?"

The Zhangji Cloth House in Bei’an County changed hands to Mrs. Wan before Mu Liuyun was born, so Mu Liuyun didn’t know the size of this cloth house, but he vaguely remembered hearing his mother mention it when he was a child, saying that Bei'an Zhangji has a kind of floral cloth, which is very beautiful. She has always liked it, but then suddenly changed the owner, and never bought that pattern again.

Unexpectedly, the sudden change of owner mentioned by the mother inadvertently was changed to Guo Hongqing's grandfather's family.

"I have no way of knowing about this." Jiang Jin couldn't answer Mu Liuyun's question. As a sihu, he only knows everything within the scope of his duties, and has always been uninterested in rumors and anecdotes." I only know that not long after that, Zhang Ji's family moved to other places. At least when they moved out, there was no record of death or serious illness in the family.

In the next few years, several cloth merchants in Bei'an County successively sold out their shops and moved out with their families. "

When Mu Liuyun heard this, he remembered some things. In the early years, bandits were infested, and all the counties in Jiangzhou suffered from it. When his mother started to take over the business left by his father, the clerks who were sent out to buy goods were also arrested. Bandits have robbed a few times, but because Madam Mu has always advocated putting people first, when encountering robbers, regardless of whether they want money or goods, they should obediently hand them over and save their lives. No casualties or damage.

Later, Mu's family changed from a tea shop to a tea house, and they didn't need to purchase large quantities of goods from other places, which further cut off the risk of being harmed by bandits, which was a worry.

Thinking about it now, as Jiang Jin said, Wanjia bought Zhangji store at a low price and gradually expanded its scale. Those few years also happened to be the stage when bandits were rampant.

It is really surprising that Wanjia is going against the current when other merchants are suffering from it.

Not to mention the previous question about where the starting capital of Wanjia came from, even Guo Hongqing couldn't explain it clearly, so it's even more interesting.

Guo Hongqing looked at the three people outside the cell with strange and bewildered expressions. After waiting for a while, he finally couldn't help but said to Mu Liuyun: "Brother Mu Xian, a gentleman's words are hard to follow. We just agreed. Yes, if you have any questions, I'll just answer them. After answering, you have to return the brazier and quilt to me!

Just now you asked me a lot of random questions, but I answered you all!You can't just keep your word!It's bleak and cold in this prison, I'm innocent, sooner or later I will regain my innocence, you can't hurt me like this! "

"Master, please take these things back to Mr. Guo!" Mu Liuyun did not refuse Guo Hongqing's request, and politely said to the yamen who was holding a quilt beside him.

Yacha got her order, opened the cell door, threw the quilt in, brought in the brazier, and then re-locked the cell door firmly.

Guo Hongqing saw that Mu Liuyun had returned the things to himself without further ado, and finally heaved a sigh of relief, and at the same time straightened his back, saying: "The clean is cleared by itself. Play tricks on me, when I regain my innocence in the future and leave this prison, I will not forget what happened today!"

Mu Liuyun sighed and shook his head: "When the time comes, I'm afraid you will miss the peace and stability in this prison."

Guo Hongqing looked at Mu Liuyun in a daze, as if she had said something stupid just now, Mu Liuyun didn't bother to explain to him, turned around and walked out with Yuan Mu and others, leaving the prison in the C district .

Passing through the B area and returning to the A area, the fire in the execution room seemed to be dimmed. Mu Liuyun reckoned that he could remove the extra braziers and oil lamps. It seemed that Yuan Yi had already gained something.

Sure enough, when I got there, I saw that Yuan Yi had already put on his jacket, but it was probably too hot, and the neckline was slightly spread. He was holding a large bowl, drinking water, and when he heard the sound, he turned his head. Seeing that it was Yuan Mu and the others, he quickly wiped the water from his mouth with his sleeve, stood up and saluted.

"Master! We're all recruited!" He said cheerfully to Yuan Mu, "At the beginning, the bandit leader refused to let go, and he didn't say anything after he was bitten to death. Later, I put him on the brazier in front of them. Roasting a soldering iron, scalding two pieces of pigskin, talking about digging his nose and eyes, almost scared his soul away, he confessed tremblingly and crying!"

"Let me guess, these bandits should have taken money from Mrs. Wan and let them clean me up and make it clean and beautiful?" Mu Liuyun curled his lips aside, as to the outcome of this matter. There has been speculation.

Yuan Yi nodded to her: "Mr. Mu's guess was really good. The instigator of this matter is the Wan family from Bei'an County. These bandits don't know why Mrs. Wan asked them to attack you, but it's just that Taking money to do things, judging from the meaning, it should not be the first time to do this kind of thing."

"So the process of Mr. Wan's fortune is indeed worth pondering." Mu Liuyun sneered, "Compared to that, the fact that he found bandits to attack me is probably the most insignificant situation, after all The purpose is very clear, but what makes people more interested is why those bandits would obey him, a cloth merchant in Bei'an County!"

Yuan Yi understood what Mu Liuyun meant. He and Yuan Jia led people to encircle and suppress mountain bandits before. The way of nature, this group of mobs has always had no morals at all. Not to mention, most people would not take the initiative to conspire with them.

This Old Master Wan is obviously not some stunned young man who can't tell the difference between black and white. Then his cooperative relationship with these bandits, including the bandit leader's teeth were tense in the first period of time, and he refused to let go. The confession of Mrs. Wan seems to be enough to explain something.

"My lord, I'll ask the brothers in charge of punishment to have a good trial and see if I can dig out something else from them!" Yuan Yi said to Yuan Mu, "Also, Mrs. Wan... ?”

"Take a rest tonight, and bring a pair of Yamen servants to Bei'an County to pick up people tomorrow." Yuan Mu said coldly, "Tie the people behind the horses, and take them back to the criminal justice department through the downtown streets of Bei'an County after noon. The momentum needs to be loud, so as to imitate others."
