Chapter 39 The Bandits Appear

Chapter 39 Bandits Appear

The entrance to Duke Yi's Mansion.

When Wang Tongyuan saw that Qin Huaidao's words destroyed the atmosphere he had created, and his reputation was reduced by half, his heart tightened, but he always kept a smile on his face, bowed again, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Chao Yilang!"

Qin Huaidao glanced at Wang Tongyuan meaningfully and shouted: "Here comes someone!"

Jia Youcai had already led people to wait at the door. When he heard the shouting, he hurried over. Qin Huaidao said: "Deploy people to escort the silver directly to Qinjiazhuang, and give the silver to the victims, one thousand taels per person, no mistake."

As usual, the Qin Mansion can keep this kind of compensation, and other people will keep it. At most, they will give a few taels of silver as compensation. The tenant will not say anything, but Qin Huaidao had no intention of keeping it from the beginning, not to mention that the Wang family deliberately made it public

Questioning that Qin Huaidao would not give the money to the victim, Qin Huaidao simply asked someone to send it directly to avoid the Wang family saying that it would be withheld or withheld later? It was necessary to be on guard against others.

When it comes to controlling public opinion and controlling people's hearts, what methods have Qin Huaidao not seen in later generations?

"this……"

Jia Youcai was a little surprised. It is said that Qin Huaidao came to pay this kind of compensation based on his ability. Shouldn't he keep it in the house? Everyone else did this. Giving twenty taels before was very benevolent. At least similar things happened in other houses.

No one has ever been so generous, so how can he pay back, and give him a thousand taels?

"Pay attention to safety on the road." Qin Huaidao reminded, sixty-five thousand taels is not a small amount, and wealth and silk are very attractive. Even under the emperor's feet, especially the Wang family, who knows whether they will take advantage of the fire and put the blame on themselves?

After seeing the Wang family's methods, Qin Huaidao felt that he could never be too careful.

Jia Youcai saw that Qin Huai had decided on Taoism and did not dare to object, so he hurried to make arrangements.

"You should also take a trip and pay attention to safety." Qin Huaidao looked at Luo Zhang who was walking over.

"Understood!" Luo Zhang nodded knowingly, looking at Wang Tongyuan with a bit of chill.

Qin Huaidao also looked at Wang Tongyuan and continued: "Son of the Wang family, since the money is all in the car, it will be troublesome to carry it. I wonder if I can borrow your carriage to send it directly there?"

Wang Tongyuan couldn't refuse in front of the surrounding neighbors, otherwise his character would collapse. Although he was unwilling to do so, he still pretended to be generous and smiled: "No problem, Chao Yilang can just use it."

"Thank you very much, Uncle Jia, check it out!"

"Here!"

Jia Youcai hurriedly checked the carriages one by one, lest there were any missing ones and he couldn't tell clearly.

There are seven carts in total. Each cart contains ten large boxes, arranged side by side. Each box contains one thousand taels, and each cart is ten thousand taels. The last cart contains five thousand taels, no more, no less, exactly 60,000 taels.

Five thousand taels.

Qin Huaidao looked at some of them and sighed, they were all brand new money. The Wang family did have money, but it was too troublesome to carry it around and had to send it by car. Unfortunately, there was no banknote in the Zhenguan year. It was the most profitable business. Why not invite Li Er to do it together?

Soon, the convoy turned around and headed straight for Qinjiazhuang. Wang Tongyuan also took people back.

After the excitement was over and the neighbors dispersed, Qin Huaidao was about to return home. Wang De came over and said in a low voice: "Chaoyi Lang, since the Wang family's money has been delivered, it's time for me to leave. I will truthfully report this matter to your Majesty today."

"Let's go in and have a cup of tea before we go?"

"No, I have to rush back to serve the Holy Master."

"Okay, then next time, by the way, please send a message to the Holy One, saying that after Wang Hu's verdict document is released, please post a public notice so that everyone in the world knows the truth." Qin Huaidao had an idea and warned.

The judgment document represents the imperial court and the will of the Holy One. In the eyes of the people, it is the most just and true. How happy the Wang family is today will be how hard it will fall when the time comes.

The Wang family is trying to confuse people and gain fame. How can Qin Huaidao let him succeed?

Wang De didn't think much, agreed and hurried away.

After Qin Huaidao returned home, he went into his study to study the map of the Tang Dynasty in preparation for going to Ganzhou. Not long after, his personal maid He'er came to report that Cheng Chumo was visiting, so he collected the map and asked He'er to bring him over.

Soon, Cheng Chumo entered the room with excitement on his face: "Brother, it's not easy to see you. I thought you were turned away like yesterday."

"Brother Cheng, why are you here?" Qin Huaidao asked, picking up a clay pot and putting it on the small clay stove to boil water for making tea.

"Congratulations, of course. Congratulations to my brother for being promoted to court minister and becoming a civil servant. You are the first among us. I heard that you made a big fuss in the Tai Chi Hall today and brought that old fox in the Wang family to heel."

"Don't talk nonsense. I am a loyal minister. How could I do such a rebellious thing as causing trouble in the Tai Chi Palace? As for the affairs of the Wang family, it is based on reason and fighting for justice to defeat evil."

"Okay, okay, okay, you can say whatever you want, and you are becoming more and more eloquent. No wonder the Holy One asked you to be the Councilor of the Court. I think the Holy One wants to use your mouth to cause trouble." Cheng Chumo interrupted.

Qin Huaidao didn't expect that this guy seemed rude, but in fact he was not stupid. He actually saw through it and smiled noncommittally. Cheng Chumo continued: "Brother, my father asked me to come over and invite you to drink. Wei Guogong and the others are all here. He said he wanted to

See the art of suturing."

"Okay, I'll be there in a moment."

"One more thing." Cheng Chumo said as he stood up, went to the door and looked outside to make sure no one was eavesdropping, then returned and whispered: "I received news that a group of bandits active in the Qinling area suddenly appeared in the west of the city. Waiting for

When Baiqisi arrived, he disappeared again."

"Bandits?" Qin Huaidao paused, feeling something bad was coming.

Cheng Chumo didn't hide it and whispered: "There are thousands of bandits in this group. They are familiar with the terrain of the Qinling Mountains. They live in no fixed place and are ruthless. They will escape early every time the officers and soldiers arrive. It is said that they are related to the Wang family."

"What do you mean?" Qin Huaidao's expression changed.

"Yes, that's what you think. My father asked me to remind you to be careful and leave first. It's on time. If you stay too long, those people at Yushitai will talk nonsense again."

"Thank you for reminding me, brother." Qin Huaidao stood up and sent people to the door of the mansion. Looking at Cheng Chumo's leaving figure, his eyes became cold. The Wang family actually respected themselves as bandits. It was really underestimated.

The combat power of the Tang army was astonishing. It was definitely not easy for these bandits to escape the encirclement and suppression. Once they penetrated into Chang'an City and attacked the mansion, the consequences would be unimaginable.

It seems that the security force of the house needs to be improved.

Turning around and entering the house, Qin Huaidao went directly to the west courtyard and found Uncle Ma who was forging iron: "Uncle Ma, please go and buy some high-quality fine iron. Find a few more shops to stock it, so as not to arouse suspicion."

It is illegal to make weapons privately, and Qin Huaidao does not want to leave any clues and be targeted.

"No problem, let's go now. How much do you need? To buy refined iron, you need to register and note the purpose. Based on the status of our family, the maximum is one hundred kilograms per time."

"Buy fifty kilograms first. Uncle Jia will not stop. Ask He'er to add some money and continue buying tomorrow, once a day. A total of two hundred kilograms will be purchased. You can arrange for other people to mine and buy separately. Don't expose it. As for the purpose...to make agricultural tools.

"

"Understood, guaranteed!" Uncle Ma hurried away.
