Chapter 394: Already Cruel Enough
The bank's principal reported that he had reported this to the county magistrate, and that the money had been loaned out in accordance with the magistrate's request. He now requested in person that the Zhang family's property be seized to pay off the bank's loan.
When the common people heard about the banks, they got scared and started demanding payment from the king, and the noise became even louder on the sidelines.
Zhao Yulin waved his hand and told them to stop talking.
The situation has become roughly clear. It was the Zhang family, who were in charge of the street construction, who blindly expanded the scale of the street construction, resulting in a broken capital chain and the inability to complete the construction, thus dragging down the homebuyers who had already paid.
It's normal for people to ask for a refund.
The common people are still clamoring for their money back, to be returned with interest.
Cao Youwen was extremely annoyed and cursed the county magistrate for not exercising discipline, which led to such a thing that harmed the country and the people, and his crime was unforgivable.
The county magistrate was so frightened that he fell to his knees, shouting that he was guilty, he was guilty, and begged the king to punish him.
Zhao Yulin saw a county magistrate kneeling down in public just because he was told to do so. How disgraceful!
A large group of ordinary people behind them also knelt down and shouted to the king to help them and return their hard-earned money.
Zhao Yulin asked Chu Yuxuan and the others to help everyone up, and promised the people that the matter would be settled within half a month, and the money of the home buyers would be returned with interest. He told them to disperse, disperse.
There were a few people who didn't know him, and they shouted at the top of their voices to ask who this great judge was and whether his words were trustworthy.
Someone nearby immediately went up to him and pretended to hit him on the face, but the man quickly dodged, shouting, "Is it not okay?"
I'm just asking, we're giving you real money.
The man shouted that he was the third young master of the Shenwei Army. If the third young master had spoken, it must be true. Our Lord Cao is here too.
Even if it's scattered, our money will definitely not be lost, it's all scattered.
When the accompanying officials saw the people disperse, they cautiously invited them to sit in the yamen again.
Cao Youwen had no intention of staying any longer and said loudly that he would not go any further and would go back to Chengdu directly.
Zhao Yulin knew that Lao Cao had lost interest after being distracted by this mess, so he told everyone to go back.
He patted the county magistrate on the shoulder and told him not to worry, that he would send someone with silver to take over the street construction matter and would not go back on his word in front of the people.
The county magistrate was delighted, but he said: How dare I ask Lord Zhao to worry about me?
Lao Cao's guards brought a horse, and he jumped on it, kicked the horse's belly and ran away first.
Zhao Yulin followed closely behind, and they ran out of Pi County before stopping at Changting to rest and have a bite to eat.
Zhao Yulin asked Chu Yuxuan to immediately arrange for the two brothers to return to Daojiang County. Lao Cao immediately understood and said there was no need to go through so much trouble, as it was Chengdu Prefecture under his jurisdiction. Wouldn't it be better to just let the Inspection Office and the Censorate conduct a thorough investigation?
Zhao Yulin shook his head and waited until Chu Yuxuan had arranged for his brothers to set off before saying: If we mobilize such a large force, Daojiang County would have known about it a long time ago, and it would be troublesome to investigate.
Maybe they have already smelled it and are now destroying the evidence and transferring the stolen goods.
The two men talked as they walked, and Lao Cao said that he wanted to take action at that time, but he didn't know what his brother meant by buying the unfinished street and helping them to refund the money?
Then he hesitated and didn't take any action.
Zhao Yulin smiled and said that he was not a wealthy man who was as rich as a country, so how could he buy it just like that? It was just a trick he used to deceive people in the investigation of the case.
Even if you want to buy, you have to make sure it is a fair transaction.
Lao Cao immediately laughed and said that he was really capable, and shouted: "Come and chase him." He rode his horse and ran away.
Seeing that he was full of childishness and wanted to compete in horse riding again, Zhao Yulin kept shaking his head, but still put more effort into his legs to urge the horse forward. He returned to his home in Chengdu in the evening.
At this time, the female leader who came from Xiangyang to Chengdu had already stayed in the post house for two days. She went to the Ministry of Personnel to get the official seal, and after listening to Fan Zhong's nagging for a long time, she just waited for the summons from the king Cao Youwen.
When she returned to the inn, she got angry at her little daughter and told her that the head of the Ministry of Personnel, Old Man Fan, was so annoying. He had been nagging her for a long time, saying that she looked down on scholars and her colleagues, that she handled cases simply and took human lives lightly. He also said that she was greedy for small gains and was keeping an eye on the fact that she had taken small items from corrupt officials back home.
This really pis ...
Why hasn’t Lord Cao come back yet?
I’ll leave after seeing you once and will never come to Chengdu again.
The female leader immediately went over to massage her mother's shoulders and neck to relieve her anger. The female leader angrily asked her if she had eaten breakfast.
Is that all the strength you have?
Ouch, if the gang leader is unhappy, the consequences will be serious.
Gradually, the female gang leader's anger subsided.
The head girl told her mother: She heard from Sister Yuqi from Shunfengsi that everyone in the New Song Kingdom, from the king to the county officials, must be supervised by the Inspectorate, and the big officials are keeping an eye on them.
Our mother is used to taking home anything she likes, and she feels that it is no different from handling gang matters. This habit needs to be changed.
This time, the Censorate issued the advice after receiving impeachment from officials below, and Yulin'er said they were all trivial.
However, my mother is already a high-ranking official, with colleagues following her everywhere. If she follows suit, it would break the rules of the New Song Dynasty and lead to a big mistake.
The female gang leader muttered to herself, saying that it was not because her father was chivalrous and liked to invite his friends to eat and drink as much as they wanted that she looked down on those rubbish and asked Elder Jian to take them out and turn them into silver to supplement the family income.
She is no longer so resistant now, but still says unhappily: Why are there so many rules?
It's so annoying.
Then he asked her why she didn’t go home to visit since she was already in Chengdu.
The head woman blushed and after a pause said she couldn't go anymore, she had already sent the child over.
The female gang leader sighed and stopped talking, calming down to enjoy her daughter's massaging tapping.
In less than an incense stick of time, she stood up again with full energy and said with a smile on her face: Let's go, let's go stroll around the streets of Chengdu.
She then shouted: Boss Jian, prepare the car quickly.
The female leader is the female leader. She has passed the position of leader of the Beggars' Sect to Elder Jian, and she still orders Elder Jian around like she is calling out to the younger disciples in the sect.
The mother of the two mothers drove to the Jinguan City which was about to be completed. The three huge characters "Chengtian Gate" written in thin gold font had been hung on the city gate. She climbed up the city wall and was surprised to see a large area of brand new houses inside.
Wow, how much silver would it cost to build so many palaces and houses?
The headmistress told her that this was the new imperial city where the capital was being built.
Yulin'er told her that this was not all, and that when the country was unified in the future, a bigger and more magnificent imperial city would be built.
The female gang leader replied to her unhappily, “Then why don’t you go back?”
After all, she is the mother of two children and is an imperial concubine.
"Oh, what did our mother say..."
The female gang leader became angry and stopped watching. She went downstairs to ask Elder Jian to find a good place so that she could have a drink.
The headmistress immediately said that she knew there was a very famous Wenjun Restaurant on Qintai Road.
The two mothers got on the carriage and headed straight for the Qintai.
Passing by the Gesanghua clothing store, the female boss saw that the store was brand new and dazzling, with cars parked nearby. She asked what rare items were sold inside and why so many people went there?
The head lady said that it was a novelty clothing store opened by Yulin'er's mother, and our mother's novelty underwear was made by Yulin's mother .
This aroused the interest of the female gang leader, and she asked the car to stop and take a look.
She jumped off the carriage and dived in, but was pulled out by the headmistress. When she looked at the door lintel, she realized it was a men's clothing store. She couldn't help laughing.
The two mothers then stepped into the women's clothing store, which sold coats, underwear, clothing, shoes and hats. The dazzling array of clothes immediately dazzled her.
The female boss wandered around for a long time before arriving at the tie counter. The tie costumes she saw on the wooden model were particularly refreshing. She liked them immediately and stood there without leaving.
When the female leader saw it, she understood what he meant. She immediately arranged for them to be tried on. She chose three sets in a row and also bought two pairs of small riding boots, fully equipped from head to toe.
When she got on the carriage, the gang leader said that three sets of clothes would cost her almost a hundred thousand yuan. Yulin's mother earns a lot.
The headmistress said with a smile that Brother Yulin never regarded the money as his own, and most of it was used to subsidize business trips. Our mother has seen that his guards always have hundreds of people when he goes out, and he treats them all as his own brothers.
The female gang leader laughed and praised the female leader for her thorough understanding.
Then she said with a hint of complaint that her brother Jing was of the same character. Even though she was a mother, she secretly brought the two corrupt officials' children home, and the money she earned was not enough to pay for the drinks for his brothers.
She began to envy Zhao Yulin for having a mother who could make money.
The headmistress told her: Sister Ma Ling sent 30,000 silver coins to help our mother settle down in Changsha, and my daughter also made some money from selling tickets to Mount Emei. The 40,000 silver coins raised will be enough to last for a while.
The female gang leader's face turned red when she heard this, and she immediately said that 30,000 strings of cash would be enough. Changsha has a government office, so we don't need to spend money to buy a house.
She wanted to use the money given by Zhao Yulin, but not spend the money earned by her daughter.
This is a good girl who cannot be treated unfairly.
The two mothers happily had dinner at Wenjun Restaurant before going back.
As soon as Zhao Yulin entered the yard, Ma Linger pulled Zhao Guangchen and Zhao Guangchen to see him. He immediately squatted down, picked up the two cute kids and asked: Where is their godmother?
Guangchen told him that his godmother had gone to accompany the gang leader's mother-in-law.
Then she struggled to get out of his arms, saying it was too hot and didn't want him to hold her.
Zhao Yulin put the children down, led them around the yard, and asked them what they had learned.
Zhao Guangchen proudly said that she was good at martial arts and even her godmother praised her. It was her brother who made no progress, which was a shame.
Zhao Yulin let go of Guangchen and asked her to try boxing to see if it was really great.
The little girl immediately stepped back three steps, clasped her fists and saluted them, then after a little effort she began to do an easy front flip. Zhao Yulin counted and saw that his girl had done five front flips in a row and had not stopped yet. Worried that she would not be able to stop, he rushed to the front to protect her.
The little girl flipped over twice more before she stopped steadily, and asked him why he stopped her.
She was about to turn the page but was interrupted by her father.
Zhao Yulin was convinced. He picked up Guangchen, kissed him twice on the face and said: Our daughter is really capable. She is so great and amazing.
The little girl was happy, but still struggled to get down and walk by herself.
Zhao Yulin put Guangchen down, went over and held Zhao Guangchen's hand and said that it was not shameful for a brother to be defeated by his sister, as he was just giving in to his sister.
