Da Song Private Investigator

Although the people no longer starved after receiving relief from Bao Zheng and others, the rice and grain merchants in Huainan City did not lower the price of rice, because they could see clearly that the porridge tent opened by Bao Zheng, It won't save many people, and it won't last long, so as long as they are willing to wait, after a few days, those common people will still come to buy their food.

Money is indeed very important, but most of the time, people still feel that it is more realistic to have a full stomach.

And just when these merchants were making such wishful thinking, the Huainan government office and those who had been inquiring have all rushed back one after another, and they have all the news that Bao Zheng and Hua Lang wanted to know. Inquire clearly.

And after knowing the news, it's time for them to attack these rice grain merchants.

After hearing the news from those people one after another, Hua Lang nodded slightly, and then ordered them to invite all the owners of rice and grain shops in Huainan City to the government office, saying that Mr. Bao had something to discuss with them.

After the yamen servant took the order, Bao Zheng asked: "These merchants are really hateful. They have done so many ignorant things. They should be punished properly."

Hua Lang nodded: "What Brother Bao said is true, why don't we teach those people a lesson this evening?"

"How to teach?" Bao Zheng asked very puzzled.

"Let them contribute food automatically."

"This... I'm afraid it won't be easy!"

Hua Lang smiled and said: "There are no easy things in this world, but after hearing the news of those yamen servants, I think this matter is not difficult, Brother Bao thinks?"

Bao Zheng thought carefully about what the yamen servants said, then smiled happily, nodded and said, "That's right, that's right, it's really very easy."

Evening came soon, but none of the owners of rice and grain stores were willing to come to the government office, as if those government officials hadn't passed the news to them at all.

The faces of Bao Zheng and Hua Lang were ugly. Obviously, those people had already guessed the intentions of Bao Zheng, Hua Lang and others, so they decided not to cooperate. They didn't enter the government office, and they didn't even have contact with Bao Zheng and the others.

This is a very trick, but after Hua Lang and Bao Zheng found out about this, they immediately responded. Since those people despise the court officials so much, it seems impossible to let them suffer. that's it.

So, Hwarang immediately sent people down to find a random rice and grain store, arrest the owner and beat him on the street, as long as he can't die, as much as he wants, and after the beating, leave immediately and go to the next one.

After the yamen servant took the order, he left Huainan mansion immediately. Bao Zheng looked at the backs of those people leaving, and said with a smile: "Brother Hua's tricks are ruthless, and they beat them so much that they have nothing to say, contempt for the court officials, this is a good crime. .”

Hwarang smiled: "They asked for it themselves, they can't even figure it out, so they should be taught a lesson."

A few people waited in the government office, and after about a stick of incense, the Huainan government office suddenly became noisy, and then the bosses of a kind of rice and grain shop pushed each other and came in.

After they came in, they didn't dare to mention the matter of being beaten at all. Their attitude was very respectful, for fear of angering Bao Zheng again. After they sat down, Bao Zheng nodded slightly and said: "I would like to come to a few bosses who are very happy." You are so busy that you even dare to be late for the official's invitation."

This sentence was very casual, but it made the bosses' hearts thump, and the rice and grain store bosses repeatedly made excuses for themselves, knowing that Bao Zheng nodded to express his satisfaction, so they stopped explaining.

And after stopping to explain, these people didn't open their mouths. They knew that if they opened their mouths, the food at home might be gone, so they decided not to open their mouths.

Bao Zheng naturally saw what these people meant, and he was not in a hurry. After drinking a cup of tea, he said: "I called you bosses today to hear what you think. Although the famine in Huainan City is There is a slight relief, but after all, it is only a solution to the urgent need. You are all big families with a lot of rice in the granary, and you have made enough money these days. Faced with this situation now, should you have any thoughts?"

After the owners of the rice and grain shop looked at each other, there was a trace of eagerness in their eyes, but even so, they did not intend to speak. Seeing this situation, Bao Zheng frowned slightly and said, "Why, none of you are willing to speak. ?”

Seeing that Bao Zheng was angry, only at this time did a rice grain store owner stand up and say: "Master Bao, facing this situation, we are also heartbroken and want to do something for the common people. Although we are businessmen , Everything is based on profit, but I also know the sufferings of those people, so I am willing to donate a hundred dens of rice, and please accept Master Bao's intention."

After the rice shop owner finished speaking, other rice shop owners echoed and said that they were willing to donate [-] deniers.

There is a lot of food in one hundred deniers, but for so many people in Huainan City, it is equivalent to a drop in the bucket. After seeing the behavior of these rice store owners, Bao Zheng and Hua Lang immediately understood that these people have already discussed it. Well, knowing that it was impossible to hide, they took out some casually, and they donated it, but they still didn't believe that Bao Zheng dared to force them again.

This situation is very abominable, Bao Zheng frowned slightly, and was about to get angry, but at this moment, Hua Lang smiled slightly: "This should be the owner Fang Zuofang of Sifang Rice Store?"

The owner of the rice shop who was the first to open his mouth sank in his heart, but he nodded quickly and said, "That's right, you have a good eye."

Hualang smiled indifferently: "It's not that I have good eyesight. This is the first time I have seen you. The reason why I know who you are is because I have done enough homework. Your Sifang Rice Store can be regarded as a good one in Huainan City." The largest rice store, there is enough rice grain for the entire Huainan City people to eat for three or four months, now you only donate a hundred deniers of grain, are you sending beggars away?"

Hearing what Hua Lang said, Fang Zuo didn't panic, but quickly replied: "What did you say? It’s enough to make us feel distressed. Is it possible that Playboy wants us to use all our hard-earned savings to help those people? I’m not a living Bodhisattva, and I can’t do things that benefit others and harm myself. Playboy is a noble person. people, maybe you can do it."

Fang Zuo, the owner of the Sifang rice shop, is a sharp-tongued master, and he is not easy to deal with for a while, Hua Lang frowned slightly, thinking that you forced me.
