Chapter 998: Killing the chicken to scare the monkey

In the office, Hong Zhihai said angrily: "What happened? Where did that kid come from? Why didn't your father care?"

Feng Zhiwen said: "My nephew doesn't know either. You have to ask Fifth Brother."

Feng Zhidai said: "Uncle Hong, the man at the door is Lantian Marquis Li Feng, the man widely rumored in Chang'an. His coming means that His Majesty is also here.

My father should have shown you that musket. It was designed by Marquis Lantian. Now, the imperial army has begun to replace this musket.

Once all the soldiers in the imperial court were armed with muskets, the Lingnan natural barrier guarded by my father would be like paper and could be breached by them at any time.

So his father gave him a lot of face. As for why his father gave him a token to investigate the tax on his own, I don’t know.

But one thing I am very sure of is that this investigation will be very severe. Uncle Hong, I hope you have not committed any tax evasion, otherwise, hey."

"What else?" Hong Zhihai asked in a deep voice.

Feng Zhidai said: "This time Li Feng used his own people, not my father's people. Once he finds the evidence, the Hong family may really..."

"He dares." Hong Zhihai said solemnly.

Feng Zhiwen said: "Just him?"

"I, I know, I am willing to be a witness."

"And I, I know, and I'm willing to be a witness."

"..."

Suddenly, the noise outside the door attracted the attention of the three people in the office room.

Hong Zhihai said in a deep voice: "What's going on? Why is it so noisy outside?"

"Let me go and take a look." Feng Zhidai said.

"Walk."

Hong Zhihai and the other three walked out of the office and saw a group of officials scribbling furiously, writing down their charges.

They just raised their heads and glanced at Feng Zhiwen and the others, then continued writing furiously.

"You, what are you doing?" Feng Zhiwen asked in a deep voice. It was the first time that he was ignored by them, so he was very angry.

Li Feng sneered and said: "You came just in time, they have recruited them all. As for you, I will also give you a chance to reveal all your tax evasion gains.

Also tell me about those aristocratic families or businessmen who have given you benefits and allowed you to collect less taxes. Otherwise, when your father wants to kill you, I will never stop him, and I might even encourage him to kill you."

"Hmph, do you have what it takes?" Hong Zhihai sneered.

Li Feng smiled and said: "Your Hong family has been listed as the first family to be thoroughly investigated. Li Wan, you should escort the head of the Hong family to all the shops of the Hong family and tell him how much tax there is."

Not paid.”

"good."

Li Wan immediately ordered two navy officers to arrest Hong Zhihai.

"What are you doing? What are you doing?" Hong Zhihai roared angrily.

Li Feng took out the token and said: "What are we doing? Humph, you know it in your heart. Now I will give you a chance. Should you admit it yourself and make up for the missed taxes, or should I find out and ask you to pay a hundred times more?"

fine."

Hong Zhihai was about to refute, but was stopped by Feng Zhidai.

"Marquis Lantian, the Hong family and the Feng family are family friends and in-laws, so I ask Marquis Lantian to show your respect."

"There is no need to discuss this matter. This is a matter of national importance, and I will not show favoritism."

Then they will not allow them to do business for ten years. Within ten years, if anyone from the Hong family does business, the government will directly ban it."

An aristocratic family asked: "What if he, the Hong family, pays the fine?"

"Then just pretend that nothing happened. As for the punishment a hundred times, I hope they will punish you with a small punishment but a big punishment." Li Wan said again.
