The county magistrate changed his career to selling private vegetables and sold them out

Chapter 187

Fu Zhi wiped the sweat off his face, and said in a trembling voice, "I, I know that Jiang is pregnant with the eldest son's child, but I didn't dare to tell the eldest son, nor did I tell my wife..."

"Why didn't you tell Madam? She threatened with your aunt's life, but you didn't tell her?"

"Hui, Mr. Hui, Jiang's experience was caused by the slaves. Their mother and son are so innocent, and the eldest son has feelings for Jiang. If his wife finds out, Jiang's life may be lost..."

Fu Ting didn't speak any more, and the crackling sound of burning candles could be vaguely heard in the quiet night.

After a long time, Fu Ting raised his hand and said, "Get up and talk, and tell Jiang's story from beginning to end again."

Fu Zhi stood up, bowed slightly and hid behind the candlelight, slowly recalling the past.

"When I saw Jiang for the first time, she stood at the entrance of the village and looked into the distance stupidly, saying that she was waiting for her family to come back. The villagers said that she was a silly girl from the Jiao family..."

"The young master was poisoned, and he was afraid of his life. The servant could only find an innocent woman to detoxify the young master first. The first one he thought of was that stupid girl from the Jiao family... Afterwards, the servant knocked Jiang out, left her some money, and took the young master away."

"More than a month later, I saw Jiang Shi again in Huaigu County. She was being drowned by the villagers. The reason was...Jiang Shi had an affair with a foreigner...The slave rescued Jiang Shi, but accidentally found out that she was pregnant. Calculating the time, it should be with the eldest son...At that time, the slave found out that Jiang Shi was not stupid at all!"

"Later, Eldest Young Master met Jiang Shi in Guyang Town. Jiang Shi was clever and clever, and he was unforgettable. The slave found that Eldest Young Master gradually developed affection for Jiang Shi, so he wanted to prevent Jiang Shi from getting close to Eldest Young Master. He never thought about it..."

Fu Zhi didn't hide any more words, because he knew that Fu Ting knew much more than he thought!
"One last question, do you know that the Jiao family in Huaigu Village is the family that adopted Yuan'er?"

Fu Ting's words hit Fu Zhi's head like a thunderbolt, causing his eyes to turn black and his legs to go limp.

In an instant, he felt as if he had swallowed a handful of yellow lotus in his heart, and his heart was broken from pain.

It is so!The so-called "evil fate" that he wanted to stop was actually a love relationship that could not be broken in this life. He was wrong!

Fu Zhi swallowed the bitterness in his mouth with difficulty, and asked at a loss, "Eldest Young Master...has he found out?"

Fu Ting looked at Fu Zhiwan's cracked face thoughtfully, and said, "Why do you think he sent you back to the Shangshu Mansion? Fortunately, you are quite smart and did not lose your limit, so you saved your life!"

Fu Zhi was silent for a moment, then suddenly knelt down, and slammed his hands heavily on the ground, "My lord, I know I was wrong! I want to atone for my sins, so I beg my lord to let this servant serve you by the Eldest Prince's side. This slave swears allegiance to the Eldest Prince!"

Fu Ting glanced at him, and said: "If you stay in Shangjing, the eldest son will be useful to you."

Fu Zhishun raised his head, then kowtowed in thanks: "Yes, my lord!"

The warehouse in the west of Yuzhou City.

Seeing bags of moldy rice grains being moved out of the warehouse, Prefect Leng's face was gloomy as if a storm was about to blow, and the Yuzhou Chamber of Commerce and his party were even more mournful.

Wu Yushi's complexion was also very ugly. He shook his head and sighed. He glanced coldly at Pei Tongpan who was crying, and said, "This is how Mr. Pei manages the granary? He knows that the continuous rain and snow will cause the granary to be damp. Why didn't he prevent it earlier? You are dereliction of duty! It is dereliction of duty."

The steward at the side cupped his hands with a bitter face, and said: "My lord, the grassroots are wronged! Our boss said earlier that this kind of rainy and snowy weather can easily lead to moldy old grains. It is best to sell the old grains that have been accumulated in the warehouse and replenish them when new grains are available in the spring, but the judge...!"

Pei Tongpan glared fiercely at the steward, who shivered in fright, shrank his neck and took several steps back.

"My lord, it's all the fault of the lower officials. It's because the lower officials didn't supervise strictly, and the people guarding the warehouse didn't find out that the food was damp in time..."

Fu Wen snorted coldly, and said: "Our boss had good intentions. Not only did the steward remind Mr. Tong, but I also proposed to the chamber of commerce to sell one-third of the old grain in the granary to the common people at a low price during the winter in rainy and snowy weather. What did Vice President Pei say? I have something to say first, if the grain gets moldy due to damp, we can blame our city-state logistics!"

Vice President Pei was so angry that he said angrily: "You only said that you would sell the old grain and let the Chamber of Commerce find a way to replenish it. You didn't say that the grain in the granary would be moldy!"

Fu Wen let out a "huh" and turned to look at Pei Tongpan: "My lord, the manager of the warehouse told you that there will be a long period of rain and snow in Yuzhou. In order to prevent the old grain from getting damp and moldy, he suggested selling the old grain? Don't Mr. Tongpan and Vice President Pei belong to the same family? Have you never discussed the matter of the granary together?"

Vice President Pei almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

Pei Tong judged anxiously, wiped the sweat from his brow and said, "My lord, I don't know that these grains are so susceptible to moisture and mildew... I was originally worried that after selling the old grains, it would take half a year before the new grains are harvested. Yuzhou has always been short of grains. If there is not enough grain in this granary, what if..."

"Knowing that there is a shortage of grain in Yuzhou, the shop under the name of Vice President Pei sold several thousand catties of grain just now, but Boss Jiang, who owns Jiang's private kitchen, asked people to buy rice and grain, and donated a total of two thousand catties of white flour. Compared with the two, I dare not say anything, I can only praise Boss Jiang for his righteousness!"

Fu Wen mercilessly exposed Pei Tong's panic, and buried the Pei family by the way.

I just want to cheat you without discussing it!

Members of the chamber of commerce expressed their opinions one after another, and what they did one by one was reasonable and reasonable, and it was natural and smooth.

Both Pei Tongpan and Vice President Pei's faces were ashen, knowing that they were deliberately put together, but they couldn't defend themselves.

In the final analysis, the two brothers are cheating themselves.

Pei Tongpan didn't know that Vice President Pei took advantage of the rain and snow to sell the stockpiled food in Pei's shop at a high price. If he knew, he would definitely stop it!

Vice President Pei didn't know that the old grain in the granary had been damp. If he knew, he wouldn't brag about how abundant Yuzhou's grain storage was this year in front of Wu Yushi...

Wu Yushi looked at it coldly, and he had already made up his mind, and said: "I will report this matter to the court truthfully. As for the affairs of the Yuzhou government office, let the prefect Leng handle it himself! This official must remind the prefect Leng that food is the country's major plan. Anyone who dereliction of duty must be severely punished according to the law!"

"Your Majesty, remember the teachings of your lord!"

After the censors left, the members of the Chamber of Commerce looked at me and I looked at you, and in the end, without exception, they pointed their finger at Vice President Pei, who was full of bitter and dark eyes.
