Huo Xi followed Kan Er to the private room of the restaurant, where a young man sat.

Kan Er introduced to her: "This is the treasurer Dui of Langguang Pavilion."

Against the big shopkeeper?Huo Ximing remembered the names of Liyikan, Ergan, and the third class.This person must also be Mu Yan's confidant.

I don't know if his grandfather liked the gossip in the Book of Changes, so he left those names for his grandson.He nodded to the other party and sat down opposite him.

Duiba had heard a lot about Guangfengshui, a small club, so he made this trip out of curiosity.

At this time, seeing the young lady's appearance as a seasoned businessman, I am amazed.He is in charge of the young master's general affairs, many people are frightened when they see him, but this little lady looks calm and composed.

"Where's your young master?" Mu Yan usually settles the money with her, but she didn't expect to see him when she came back this time.

"The young master is currently busy investigating the case and reading the files."

"Investigate the case? Your young master is not officially in office, but he came out to observe the experience of the political chief, and now he is investigating the case?"

"The case this time is quite unusual, no one wants to touch it, and the commander of Jin Yiwei arrested the young master and sent him to work."

"What kind of case is so rare that your young master, a fledgling internal guard, should be allowed to do it." Huo Xi was a little puzzled.

"The young master is a good inner guard, but he is also a member of the Jinyiwei, and he has to be dispatched by the commander of the Jinyiwei."

Huo Xi nodded, feeling that it was a bit bad to inquire about important cases of Jin Yiwei, so she stopped talking.

But Dui Ba quite liked this little lady, and smiled at Kan Er: "Everyone in the capital is talking about this case, and Mr. Huo's family just returned to the capital. I'm afraid they don't know about it yet, so you can tell her about it."

Kan Er originally wanted to talk, but Mrs. Huo suddenly stopped asking, thinking that she was not interested.

Seeing that she wanted to hear, he began to talk about this strange case.

This case happened in Lanxi County below Jinhua Mansion.Nalanxi County gathers water from three rivers and is also known as the thoroughfare of seven provinces. Its geographical location is very important.There are a lot of businessmen coming and going.The local people took advantage of the convenient terrain to start a business, and their lives were very easy.

There was an illiterate farmer named Mu Taigong who planted a few acres of land in the countryside and worried about the fertilizer in the field every year.

Seeing people coming and going in the county, I saw business opportunities.

I ran to the county magistrate and said that excreting everywhere is easy to breed mosquitoes and flies, and it also spreads epidemics. I plan to build some free public toilets for everyone to use.As soon as the county magistrate heard that the county didn't need money and effort, and even beautified the county, he immediately allocated some land for him.

Mr. Mu asked people to build several public latrines, painted the walls, bought calligraphy and paintings as decorations, and asked the local admonition to inscribe the name "Xiyantang".

Lobbying in the county, saying that going to the toilet is not only free, but also toilet paper.Nowadays, people just use grass leaves and bamboo chips to solve it, so they are not willing to use straw paper.The inside was tidied up again, so those who lined up to go to the toilet every day could queue for several miles.

Mr. Namu sold these excrement at a price of one hundred cents and one stone, and used them as fertilizer for the farmers. In a few years, they became a small rich family.

There are a few Xiao Xiao who have their eyes on the wealth of Mr. Mu.

From time to time, he came to the door to blackmail, and went inside to make trouble, throwing excrement on the wall. Grandpa Mu reported to the county magistrate, beat them up, and fined them.

The leader named Xu Yi held a grudge.

Thinking of Wei Lv's rule "If you know it, sue it first, the official is the one who catches you, and you will not give property", thinking about suing him for treason, and when the official master loses his money, you can still give yourself a sum of money.

He also thought that the county magistrate was on the side of Mu Taigong, so he passed the county magistrate and went to the magistrate to file a complaint.

Leapfrogging a complaint requires a [-]-year-old board first, so Xu Yi took it down in order to get money, and the magistrate believed him because of this.

Xu Yi said that Taigong Mu built a latrine and gathered people to make trouble, intending to rebel and welcome back the former emperor and descendants.He also said that "Xiyantang" is the proof.Before Emperor Yongkang ascended the throne, he was granted the title of King Yan, which implied that the emperor was only worthy of squatting in the toilet of his house.

The magistrate arrested many people for interrogation, but none of them found out that Mr. Mu was plotting against him.

The matter is pending.Thinking that Emperor Yongkang hated treason the most, he didn't dare to take his own ideas.So he reported the matter to the capital.It was stabbed in front of Emperor Yongkang layer by layer...

After hearing this, Huo Xi became numb and speechless.

Just because of the word "yan"?So many words can no longer be used.

My mind immediately turned quickly, did I commit any taboo by naming my name?After thinking about it for a long time, it seems that there is no such thing, so I let out a sigh of relief.

Seeing Huo Xi, Dui Ba first rolled his eyes, then tilted his head in thought, and said with a smile, "Ms. Huo finds it strange?"

"This is so strange, I don't know what to say." Huo Xi rolled her eyes again.

Duiba laughed out loud.This little lady is too funny.

"Then what's going on with the case now? Grandpa Mu has been a farmer for several lifetimes. He is illiterate, so can he think of treason?"

Dui Ba touched the teacup: "Your Majesty also doesn't believe that Mu Taigong will seek rebellion, but the person who inscribed 'Xiyantang' to him was a famous local teacher with many students. Maybe he acted in the name of Mu Taigong. What about treason?"

Huo Xida was speechless: "Build a public toilet, and everyone squats together to plot rebellion? Doesn't it smell bad?"

Dui Ba smiled: "Then who knows."

To seek rebellion is not a word of the superior.When Fang Daru was punished by the Nine Clans, the literati in the world have not recovered yet.Maybe His Majesty thinks that the literati in the world want to vent their anger on Mr. Fang.

Huo Xi was stunned for a long time, then shook his head violently, this world is really too dangerous.If you disagree, you will be killed, your house will be ransacked, and you will be guilty if you say you are guilty.

Still have to hug the thigh.

Chao Duiba smiled obsequiously: "Is your product enough to sell? Do you want to get more?"

Dui Ba raised his eyebrows: "I'd like to take over all your goods. But the young master said I should leave some for you, so as to bring popularity to your shop."

Looking at Huo Xi, her face was full of admiration: "I really didn't expect that Mrs. Huo is young, but she has an excellent eye for picking goods. The things I bought sell very well in our Langguang Pavilion."

Huo Xi was a little smug when he heard that.

Looking at the box in his hand, he wondered if he would give some more money for it.

This time she only sold rock sugar and white sugar, each one hundred shi, and the price was 9000 taels.In exchange for the equivalent value, how can you sell it for double the price?That's 20,000 taels.

This time, she returned three shipments.Not a lot.She won't agree to earn less.

Sensing her gaze, Dui Ba pushed the box in front of her: "Ms. Huo is quite satisfied after looking at it."

Huo Xi happily accepted it, opened it and counted.

"50,000 taels? That much?" Huo Xi's eyes widened.

Dui Ba nodded: "Here is the list of goods and the selling price, Mrs. Huo have a look."

Huo Xi took it and looked at it. She exchanged a lot of spices this time. Jewelry, jade, handicrafts and so on are all valuable things.

Very satisfied.Put the list away.

Thinking that I have hundreds of thousands of taels of silver in my hand now, I can think about going to sea.

"I plan to go to sea next year. Do you have any intentions in Langguang Pavilion? If you are interested, you can go to sea together. If you don't, I'll find other merchants earlier."
