Chapter 150 Here Comes the Poacher

With a wave of Yang Qifan's hand, several teams of soldiers trotted forward, divided the kneeling men in black into several groups, escorted them to a corner of the pier, knelt down neatly, and waited until dawn to carry out the punishment of pleading guilty.

The archers and soldiers went back to the team, Yang Qifan followed Gu Yan, frowned and said: "What's the point of pleading guilty? Look at the oil, it's too vicious, this matter really needs to be judged, at least a dozen heads can be cut off .”

"I can't cut it now, I want to use them, not only can't cut it, but also protect it." Gu Yan squinted at the darkness in the distance.

"Brother said that the Sea Taxation Department is the cornerstone of the country, and the Jiangnan Sea Taxation Department is the most important thing." Yang Qifan swallowed the latter words and did not say anything.

"Your elder brother doesn't agree with me touching the Jiangnanhai tax department." Gu Yanming answered the words clearly.

"Well. He thinks that if he wants to make a move, he needs to prepare for at least three to five years, or even ten or eight years. Not only must he find out, but he also has to think about a way out, saying that you just arrived in Jiangnan or something." Yang Qifan's voice was extremely loud. Low.

Gu Yan was silent for a moment, then hummed in a low voice.

He has been preparing for many years to clean up the customs department this time, and it is not just the Jiangnan customs department that he wants to clean up.

"You are indeed different from before." Yang Qifan looked sideways at Gu Yan.

"It's your cousin's gossip again?" Gu Yan tilted Yang Qifan.

"It's all about complimenting you, several pages, all kinds of compliments." Yang Qifan smiled, "I've made arrangements here, where are you going now? When are you going to Pingjiang City? I'm fine today, tomorrow It's okay."

Gu Yan paused, turned his head to look at Yang Qifan.

"You little confidant, didn't you say... Hey." Yang Qifan rubbed his fingers and laughed a few times.

"Her surname is Li, Xingsi, you call her Miss Li, or Fourth Lady, what kind of bosom friend is not a bosom friend!" Gu Yan snorted.

"Then when are you free? Hehe." Seeing that Gu Yan didn't stare, Yang Qifan became more courageous, "We'll be free recently, when the crown prince arrives, how can we be free, right? Hurry up!"

"She may not be free, let's wait until everyone is free. You have personally surveyed the terrain along the Linhai Town, the gang guilds? Are they all clear? What did your elder brother tell you before you came?" Gu Yan pointed at Yang Qifan's chest.

"Brother asked me to listen to you, and that's what was written in the order." Yang Qifan smiled dryly.

"From now on, take your people, go up 150 miles, go down 150 miles, ride a horse to take a boat back, investigate carefully, go." Gu Yan immediately ordered.

"Yes! Oh you." Yang Qifan looked at Gu Yan who turned around and left, sighed, forget it, let's do the investigation, let's do it when we come back.

After Sister-in-Law passed the message, Li Xiaonan and Li Jinzhu hurried to Guoxiang with Ah Wu and Wang Yuting.

At the door of the teahouse where Li Xiaonan talked to Sister-in-law Lu for the first time, Sister-in-law Lu kept looking out. Seeing A Wu on the horse, Sister-in-law Lu rushed out of the teahouse.

"What happened? Why are you in such a hurry?" Li Jinzhu got off the cart first, and asked with concern.

"Something has happened!" Sister Lu said angrily.

"Don't worry, as long as you're doing well, it won't be a big deal." Li Xiaonan pushed Sister-in-law Lu into the teahouse, "Have you eaten yet? Let them serve a bowl of silver noodles and make a pot of tea." Li Xiaonan motioned to Wang Yuting.

"That's what the little boss said." Sister Lu's heart warmed, tears almost fell down.

"Ah Nan is right, as long as the person is good, it's fine. Sit down first, don't worry." Li Jinzhu also laughed.

The man made tea and brought it up, Ah Wu brought a cup of tea, dragged a chair, and sat a little further away.

"It's a big deal, alas, it's all my fault!" Mrs. Lu slapped herself on the face.

"Sister-in-law, don't be like this. You can't insult yourself." Li Xiaonan reached out to stop Sister-in-law Lu's hand.

"I'm not, oh, let's talk about business. You went to the village last time. After you left, about two hours later, the big car you hired stopped at my house again, and a woman came out, wearing a silk dress. There is also a golden hairpin inserted into the skirt, looking very rich, the old woman will say it!

"She said that her surname is also Li, and that she is related to you. Come here and ask me if there is any difficulty. I am a fool. I believe everything she says, and I tell everything she asks! Sigh!"

Mrs. Lu was very annoyed.

"What happened later?" Li Jinzhu frowned slightly.

She couldn't figure out how their Li family had such a relative.

"Yesterday early in the morning, a shopkeeper came to the village and said that his surname was Yu, the big shopkeeper Yu."

When Li Xiaonan heard the word "Yu", she let out an oh, she knew who the woman was.

"The surname Yu went to various houses, and added [-] copper tins for each piece of cloth. He wanted to buy fine cloth from each house. He even said that the contract we signed clearly states that as long as the money from the loom is paid off, the woven fine cloth can be sold however you want.

"He took out a bunch of silver coins on the spot, white coins!"

"How many families took his money?" Li Xiaonan asked.

"Except for my family, I took everything." Sister Lu lowered her head.

Li Jinzhu pursed her lips tightly, and Ah Wu's eyes widened when she heard this, Wang Yuting hurriedly slapped Ah Wu's back, signaling her not to speak.

"Every family took money for the loom, and they want to return it to us. What about the money? Did they return it to us by themselves, or did they entrust you to hand it over?" Li Xiaonan asked.

"It's all in the hands of everyone, how can I give it to me? It's a lot of money!" Sister Lu smiled wryly.

Li Xiaonan rolled her eyes slowly, and asked again: "I signed the contract, right? How did you write the contract?"

"It's signed. I don't know how it's written. It's all men from different families who read men's signatures. I didn't see it at a glance." Sister-in-law Lu replied.

"Is the money held by the men of each family?" Li Xiaonan asked immediately.

"Of course." Mrs. Lu glanced at Li Xiaonan.

This question is asked, of course, silver and copper are all managed by men.

"Let's hurry up and get the loom money back." Li Jinzhu said in a low tone.

"Don't worry, let's talk about it later." Li Xiaonan pulled Li Jinzhu quietly, looked at Sister-in-law Lu and said with a smile: "I was negligent about this matter. I missed a line in the contract. I will change the contract when I go back today. Sister-in-law's family What about the loom? How do you plan? We will still receive the original price of the cloth, and will not keep up with the increase.”

"I'm going to do it with you. You have to behave like a man, right? Just for twenty big money, you don't want to lose your face?" Sister Lu said angrily.

"That's fine, sister-in-law, don't worry, since you follow us, I will definitely not treat you badly. One thing, my sister-in-law used to help everyone put their looms on line, and didn't accept their copper coins. This hard-earned money is subsidized by us. Sister-in-law's."

"That's right! After that, you will definitely not be able to subsidize any more, and I can't help in vain, right!" Sister Lu's eyes lit up.

"Well, I want to discuss it with my sister-in-law. Will my sister-in-law get a wage from me to help me go to various villages and houses that my sister-in-law knows? In addition to helping to go online, I will see where they are weaving wrong or not. , give them pointers, and take back the woven fine cloth. For the time being, the wages will be calculated as one tael a month." Li Xiaonan laughed.

Li Jinzhu's eyes widened when he heard that, one month, one tael of silver!
Ah Wu also choked, looked at Li Xiaonan, then at Mrs. Lu, and suddenly turned to look at Wang Yuting.

She and Wang Yuting don't even have a single coin!

"One, one tael? Silver?" Sister Lu couldn't believe her ears.

"En." Li Xiaonan nodded.

"That's fine! I'll listen to my boss!" Sister Lu's cheeks flushed with excitement.
