Chapter 149 We Have Thought It Through
Su Jiuyue raised her eyebrows.
She had seen this man in Redwood Village.
The document for dealing with unscrupulous businessmen and corrupt officials was the one he read when he came to the village. It seemed that its name was Xingyun.
Nangong Muchen gave an order.
"Let's get this straight."
Liuyun took the order and stepped forward, directly pulling out a person from behind Manager Qian.
Who else could it be but the shopkeeper Tian who has already been frightened out of his wits?
Shopkeeper Tian didn't expect that this man in black who looked like an evil spirit would be the first to find him.
He knelt on the ground and kowtowed eighteen times.
"My lord! This is none of my business! I am just following orders. My lord, please spare my life!"
Liuyun scratched his ears and curled the corners of his mouth in disdain.
He drew his sword and pointed it at Shopkeeper Tian's throat.
"Tian Biao is from Qingshui Township, Yishan County. He is the third child in a family of twelve and the main breadwinner of the family."
With every word Xingyun spoke, Tian Biao's heart sank a little.
With a sword pointed at his neck, he tensed up and dared not move at all.
Xingyun lifted his chin with the tip of his sword and smiled evilly.
"Manager Tian, you have been a lackey for this fat man for seven or eight years, so you must know him very well."
"I'll give you a chance to pick and choose and see if you have anything to say."
Tian Biao's body was stiff, with cold sweat running down his cheeks.
Xingyun's sword moved forward a little, and Tian Biao already felt a slight pain in his neck.
"Tian Biao, think it through first. Well said, you are fine, and so are the twelve people in your family. If you know the truth but don't report it or conceal something, you must think clearly about the consequences."
"Let's not talk about Boss Qian's fate for now, your fate will be to die under my sword!"
Su Jiuyue looked at Liuyun in astonishment.
He thought that if the prince asked Liuyun to come out, he would have to produce some solid evidence.
Or tell this stubborn guy some secret to make him compromise.
Boy, is that so rude?
Directly a violent interrogation and threats to the lives of family members? No need to carry people?
This reminded her of a saying.
In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are in vain.
Look at that shopkeeper Tian, tsk tsk…
Shopkeeper Tian's lips were trembling, and his crotch was wet...
"I said...I said..."
"It was Boss Qian who coveted Suwei's marinated shrimp recipe, so he asked me to trip them up secretly and slander them for eating crayfish and causing harm to people."
"When my plan failed, I threatened them to make trouble every day and shut down their business. The boss said they had no power and were just low-class people digging for food in the fields. They couldn't cause any trouble..."
"That Shen! It was also arranged by Boss Qian. He asked her to steal the recipe for Su Wei. Shen was unreliable and didn't bring the recipe until the day before Su Wei opened."
"I advised him to be more careful, but he didn't listen. He was determined to give Su Wei a severe blow today."
"First, they offered a better discount than her to divert customers away, and then they deliberately arranged for people to discredit Suwei. Not only did they cause trouble at the door of Suwei, but they also spread rumors among the people that Suwei's crayfish was not clean."
"These were all ordered by Boss Qian. I'm just an errand boy... Sir, please spare my life!"
Shopkeeper Tian banged his head so hard that it made loud noises.
The onlookers couldn't help but cover their mouths and whisper to the people around them.
"Isn't this exactly the same as what the young boss said?"
"Life is already difficult for us country folks, and people like this want to rob others of their livelihoods. It's really despicable!"
"Yes, using power to oppress others and bully others! Fortunately, the young boss was not defeated..."
Originally, Su Jiuyue told the story again.
However, it was ultimately her one-sided statement, some people believed it while others did not.
Now that Tian Biao has said it himself, one cannot help but believe it!
Fei Yufu's eyes were sharp, and his magnetic voice was filled with a hint of contempt.
"Humph, our Great Xia country is based on agriculture. I didn't know that a mere merchant would look down on farmers so much!"
"Is this your intention or the intention of the person behind you? I will report the truth to the emperor."
Boss Qian knew that not only was he in trouble this time, but he might also implicate the government office.
My heart felt even colder.
Looking at the traitor, Manager Tian, who was still trying hard to get himself out.
He was so angry that he roared.
"Tian Biao! Don't make yourself sound so innocent! Wasn't it your idea that we forcefully bought Madam Tian's stuffing recipe the first time?"
"You said she was a widow and that her only threat was her son, whom she regarded as her lifeblood. You asked me to find someone to kidnap her son and force her to submit."
Boss Qian no longer cares about anything else and only wants Tian Biao to be disgraced like him!
"And how did Zuixianlou get kicked out of Yishan County? Wasn't it because you bribed the cook in their kitchen and poisoned the food?"
"That drug cook didn't control the dosage properly and poisoned a young couple to death. I was the one who suppressed the poison!"
"Do you think you'll be alright if you turn me in? Hahaha! You killed someone! If anything happens to me, you won't be well off either, hahaha!"
Boss Qian laughed crazily, as if he had lost his mind.
When Shopkeeper Tian heard him confess the murder he had committed, he trembled.
I don’t know whether he was angry or scared.
His eyes were bloodshot and he seemed to have forgotten the sword was at his neck.
He also stiffened his neck and shouted at Boss Qian.
"Isn't that because you covet Lady Tian's recipe? Knowing that I'm from the same hometown as her, you forced me to get it, or else you'd deduct my wages?"
"You got the poison! How could I know it was so poisonous!"
"Qian Jinbao! Did you get any benefits later? Li Lang, the seller of goods, Meishanlou a few years ago, Cao's shop which had good business before... which one didn't have your influence!"
Boss Qian's eyes were bloodshot.
"Tian Biao! Shut up! I told you to shut up! How good do you think you are! That..."
The two started fighting each other in public.
Xingyun put the sword into the scabbard and walked towards Nangong Muchen with his nose pinched.
He waved his hand with disdain on his face.
"Sir, I have already confessed, and there is an unexpected gain."
The unexpected gain, of course, is the dirty stuff that comes out when dogs bite each other.
Nangong Muchen nodded.
Turn your head to look at He Bi.
"You are the county magistrate of Yishan County. Do you need me to teach you how to deal with this matter?"
He Bi kowtowed repeatedly.
"No...no...I will definitely take care of them!"
He signaled his men to quickly cover the mouths of the two men who were biting each other.
He was tied up and thrown aside.
The two of them stared at him with red eyes.
A "Woo-woo-woo" sound came from his mouth, and it was obvious that he wanted to say something.
He Bi thought to himself that it was not so bad.
These two people betrayed each other and forgot about themselves. It’s better to forget them. It’s better to forget them!
Now that the crime is in my hands, you only think of me?
It's too late! It would be impolite to ask you to speak again...
He Bi wiped the sweat off his forehead and gave him a warning look.
"Be honest, do you want to be beaten here?"
The two understood the deep meaning in his eyes and immediately lay on the ground obediently...
The matter was resolved, and Su Jiuyue smiled at the guards who came to announce the decree and Nangong Muchen and his servant.
He gently supported himself.
"Thank you, sir, and the prince, for taking care of me. Please move to Yunxiao Tower. I will prepare a small feast to show my gratitude. Please do not refuse."
After saying that, he made a gesture of invitation to everyone.
Su Wu and Su Yong walked up to Su Jiuyue closely, with serious expressions and firm tones.
"Yue'er, we have thought it through."
