My Red Mansion Career

Chapter 9 Greedy Heart
As the grandson of Marquis Jingtian, one of the twelve founding princes, Qiu Liang's appearance is not bad.

With a lion's mouth, a broad nose and a red face, the first impression he gives is that he is extraordinarily heroic.

Although he only wore a light brown fifth-grade official robe, his aura was no worse than that of Yuan Yingde, who was a third-grade official in the current dynasty.

I saw him striding to the front of the lobby and cupping his hands to Yuan Yingde, "Master Yuan, I hope you won't be offended by this official's presumptuous visit."

Yuan Yingde said calmly: "Commander Qiu, why did you suddenly come to my office today? What's the important matter?"

"There is indeed something."

Qiu Liang turned around and pointed at Jia Yu, who was standing not far away: "Master Yuan, I am here just for this animal today."

Without waiting for Yuan Yingde to speak, he said righteously: "Just now, I heard that someone was openly killing people in public near Huayan Temple.

After receiving the report from the people, the lower official immediately ordered the soldiers and horses in the east of the city to arrest the person immediately.

Unexpectedly, the prisoner has been taken away by people from the Shuntian Mansion Yamen. I came here hoping that you can hand over the animal to me so that I can take him back to the Military and Horse Division for strict interrogation and give an explanation to the people. . "

A faint sneer appeared at the corner of Yuan Yingde's mouth: "I don't need Commander Qiu to worry about this matter.

Now that I have taken over the case, I will complete the trial as soon as possible and report it to Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment. "

Qiu Liang didn't expect Yuan Yingde to be so disrespectful. His eyes narrowed and he said in a somewhat unkind tone:
"My lord, shouldn't the Five Cities Military and Horse Division be responsible for such cases normally? Why do you have to override your subordinates and try the case today?"

"presumptuous!"

Yuan Yingde's eyes widened with anger, he slapped the case and stood up, pointed at Qiu Liang and shouted angrily: "Qiu Liang, do you still have any sense of superiority and inferiority, do you have any rules?
Do I still need the consent of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division to hear the case?
If you are dissatisfied with me, you can refer to my book in the book, or you can hand over a sign to ask to see His Majesty and ask for His Majesty's judgment instead of questioning the superior here?

You are so presumptuous, do you really think that I dare not go to the trouble of substituting you for a crime that is so high-minded that the superior officer roars in court? "

Qiu Liang's expression also changed when he heard that Yuan Yingde even brought out the charges of roaring in court.

He rolled his eyes and then laughed: "Sir, this official is just here for a routine inquiry. Why do you want to use the wrath of thunder?
If your Excellency feels that I should not come forward and speak out, since you have taken over the case, I will resign first. "

Hearing Qiu Liang's obviously soft words, Yuan Yingde just snorted, "Since Commander Qiu doesn't care about this matter, please come back. I still have official duties, so I won't send it away."

"In this case, I will resign."

"By the way, Commander Qiu, I forgot to tell you something. The prisoner you were about to take away for severe punishment just now is named Jia, and he comes from the Jia family in Jinling.

Speaking of which, Ning and Rong Ergong are still relatives of the same family. You want to take him away and punish him severely. If you meet people from Ningrong Erfu in the future, how will you explain to them?
I am very curious about this, haha..."

Qiu Liang paused for a moment, then laughed, turned around and walked out of the lobby quickly.

As soon as he walked out of the gate of Shuntian Mansion, a man in shorts who was waiting at the door approached him with a flattering smile on his face.

"Sir, I wonder how things are going?"

"Snapped!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qiu Liang gave him a backhand slap.

Qiu Liang turned around, the charming smile on his face was no longer there, replaced by a look of gloom and anger:

"Ma Laosan, I was almost killed by you today. Why didn't you tell me that that person was from the Jinling family?"

The person who was beaten was none other than Mr. Ma from the Jinsha Gang.

He covered his burning cheeks with a hint of confusion and grievance:

"Sir, I have already found out clearly that the Jia man came from Jinling to seek refuge with Rongguo Mansion. He and Rongguo Mansion have been on the fifth server for a long time. How can Rongguo Mansion stand up for him?"

"You know shit!"

Qiu Liang casually slapped Mr. Ma's right cheek again and said through gritted teeth.

"Da Xia Xungui is from the same family. We don't have to help Jia when he commits trouble, but we must not add insult to injury. Do you understand?"

"Yes, yes, yes... Your Majesty is right, I will remember it." Ma Sanye bowed his head and said yes repeatedly.

"Remember, I don't want anyone to leak what happened today. Do you understand?"

After Qiu Liang left these words, he got up, mounted his horse and galloped forward.

Looking at the figure disappearing into the street, the flattering smile on Mr. Ma's face quickly disappeared, replaced by a gloomy look.

"Pooh!"

He spat a mouthful of bloody phlegm on the ground and said bitterly: "Do you really think I don't know what you, noble people, are doing?

Da Xia Xungui is a family, even a three-year-old child doesn't believe this.

I don’t know who was responsible for the changes in Tiewan Mountain 18 years ago? "

But he only dared to curse in a low voice, and he knew it very well.

Although the Jinsha Gang is majestic and arrogant in the eyes of ordinary people, they are just white gloves pushed to the front desk by big shots to make money.

If you really piss off those big shots, it will only take a minute to deal with them.

He looked in the direction of the lobby of Shuntian Mansion, with a look of fear and reluctance in his eyes.

The reason why he is so persistent in dealing with Jia Yu is actually greed.

He saw the money Jia Yu spent and found that the money spent from Jia Yu was completely different from the money he usually saw.

The silver that flowed out of Jia Yu's hands was not only purer and brighter, but also had a higher level of refinement than he had ever seen in his life.

Due to the limitations of the times and technology, refining silver in this era was entirely done manually. The refined silver was not only low in purity, but also contained many impurities.

Therefore, the silver of this era looks dull and has a frosted feel to the touch.

The industrial silver used by Jia Yu is refined using modern technology. It is not only higher in purity, but also brighter and smoother in color. The two can be easily distinguished.

In Ma Sanye's opinion, this also means that Jia Yu is likely to have or know a silver mine that no one knows about.

Yes... you heard it right, this is what Ma Sanye had in mind after his brainstorming.

And he didn't even tell anyone in the Sands Gang about this guess.

This is the reason why he is so persistent in dealing with Jia Yu.

If he could get the silver mine in Jia Yu's hands, why would he be the white glove of a big shot?
Wouldn’t it be better to just go to Yangzhou and enjoy the rest of your life?

And Jia Yu, who was fashionable in the lobby at this time, didn't understand that the silver he took out aroused the greed of others because of its high level of refinement.
