Mr. Lin put down the tea cup in his hand and said with some displeasure: "You are in the wrong for defaulting on tax arrears, and you still want the prefect to be accommodating. Isn't it a case of supporting Bil and others?"
Huang Changsheng rolled his eyes and responded hurriedly: "I have always heard that the Lin family is a model of being loyal to the public and abiding by the law. I would never do such illegal things, but now... I still ask the eldest son for advice."
When the heat was up, Mr. Lin stopped taking the tea cup, put down the tea cup, moved his fingers around the room, and said slowly: "Think about it, if his Jinxi Building and your Zuichun Building are closed, who will be the one in Qili County in the future?" maximum?"
"Tianxiang Tower!" Huang Changsheng and Shen Leyan looked at each other and said in unison.
"Isn't that right? The government is just a knife. As long as you watch the edge of the knife and flick it a little, you can chop whoever you want!"
Shen Leyan calmed down for a moment, shook his head and said: "The relationship between County Magistrate Jiang and the Wei Station and Tianxiang Tower is... very deep!"
Of course, it's very deep. The clerks inside are all sergeants, and the managers are also military households.
Mr. Lin snorted with disdain: "You can't do anything to Tianxiang Tower, and you can't deal with the people inside. Even if you are a sergeant, you also have parents. Before becoming a military household, it was always a civilian household, and there were always grandparents, uncles and brothers. .”
As soon as these words came out, several people immediately looked at each other. They only checked that Song Liyun was a military household and his home was in Ruijin Town. They really didn't check the other members of the family.
When Mr. Lin said this, he suddenly understood.
They had checked Song Liyun's information a long time ago and asked someone to get the Song family's household registration address from the civil affairs filing cabinet of the county government when their civilian registration was transferred to military household.
Now, with some advice from Mr. Lin, someone went directly to the county government office where Qingping Town is located the next day.
Song Liyun didn't know anything. After staying in Baolinju for a day, she didn't ask anyone to accompany her, but followed the Wan family's motorcade to Pingyang Mansion alone.
Go to Fucheng in advance to deal with the rented yard, and then pick up the acting doctor on the eighth day of the lunar month.
Outside the city of Pingyang Prefecture, there are still refugees standing around, begging for food and money in groups of twos and threes surrounding the carriages and horses entering the city.
Wanjia now has a caravan sign from the Qili County Government, and is considered an official merchant. There is no need to inspect goods when entering or leaving the city.
There was no need to look at the directions for the personnel. The leader of the group, Wan Jia, just asked the Wan family to swipe their face card and let them in.
As soon as they entered the city, Song Liyun followed Wanjia's motorcade to Wanjia's shop.
Manager Wan Da, who had already received the news, was waiting at the door of the store. When he saw Song Liyun, he came out with a smile: "Miss Song, please come in quickly!"
Several waiters in the store also came out and said hello in unison: "Hello, Manager Song!"
This shop is a luggage shop jointly run by Song Liyun and Wanjia.
The Song Zhenping brothers didn't know about this business, and even Song Liyun was here for the first time.
Wanjia is a large merchant and has experience in arranging its stores. Even if it has never been a luggage store before, it can be arranged luxuriously.
When Song Liyun arrived, there were customers inside choosing small handbags.
After looking around the store, Manager Wan Da took Song Liyun to the accounting office.
Luggage shops are not only found in Pingyang City, but also in the south of Beijing.
The store has only been open for two months, and the store in the south has not yet been renovated, so the dividend cannot be settled now.
But Manager Wanda said that by the end of the year, Song Liyun would be able to receive a bonus of at least 500 taels of silver.
Each of these sheepskin handbags, cowhide bags and backpacks costs five taels of silver, which is not expensive for those who like novelty and convenience.
Song Liyun had only taken a cursory look at the Wan family's account books. She wasn't here to check the accounts, she was just here to take a look and borrow some money.
In fact, she still has more than three hundred taels of silver in her space. This money is not only needed to pay for the doctor's consultation fee, but also to repair the house and decorate it in the future.
Manager Wanda didn't even ask. He directly advanced 400 taels of silver and took her to the small rented courtyard in Alley 4, East Street.
The courtyard was just as Shopkeeper Wan said. The room was spacious and only had simple furniture, but it was cleaned cleanly. What made Song Liyun most satisfied was the corner door.
When Manager Wan Da saw that Song Liyun was satisfied, he felt relieved and said, "Miss Song, it's better to go to Wan's house to stay for one night. You can stay there after a few servants are sent to rearrange it."
Song Liyun shook his head and said, "Don't bother, I'm only staying here for two nights. I just need help buying some bedding."
These things are simple, and Wan Daguanshi will have the quilt delivered immediately.
We also ordered three meals a day at a nearby restaurant.
The reason why no furniture was prepared was because Song Liyun had no intention of settling in this yard and was only using it temporarily.
In the evening, although she bought bedding, she did not burn the kang, but took out her sleeping bag and made do with it for the night.
After getting breakfast at the restaurant at dawn, Song Liyun started shopping.
First there are grains and oils, then cloth villages, as well as all kinds of flints, fire sticks, charcoal, and large carts from the carriage and horse shop...
A pound of miscellaneous grains costs only three to five cents, a bolt of wear-resistant coarse cloth costs a hundred cents, silk fabric costs a thousand cents, and embellished satin costs one or two cents.
From cheap to expensive, buy each separately.
There are also various pills, plasters, and everything you need for children with wind-cold trauma and food accumulation.
She had a total of seven hundred taels of silver, and after spending two days doing this shopping spree, she spent seven hundred and eighty-eight in a blink of an eye.
In the alleys of East Street, trucks from various stores came and went, delivering goods one by one to the small courtyard.
Song Liyun took everything into the space.
As expected of a person from Fucheng, there is no doubt that the guy brought the things here. Such a big deal is just for the tenants to decorate their new home.
When Manager Wan got the news and came over to take a look, he saw only a dozen pieces of cloth piled up in the house and two carts of charcoal in the yard that had not been collected in time.
"Miss Song, if you can trust me, I will introduce you to a few shops in the future, ensuring low prices and good quality."
Manager Wanda felt that Song Liyun wanted to sell these things in his own shop in Ruijin Town.
Wanjia's main business is leather goods, and he also has acquaintances with grain merchants and cloth merchants, so he can purchase goods at low prices.
"Okay, I'm here to inquire about the price this time, and I'll purchase the goods in the spring after the house is repaired." Song Liyun readily agreed.
These things need to be sent to the grassland quietly. If we rely on purchasing goods, not only will it be too early, but the accounts will not be completed at the beginning.
Two days later, Song Liyun rented a carriage in Fucheng, picked up the acting doctor, took the equipment and medicinal materials needed for healing, and rushed home.
It is rare for a doctor to visit a doctor on behalf of a doctor, yet he walked such a long distance. He was confident in the treatment of Song Zhenping's leg injury, so he walked slowly and leisurely along the way.
Little did he know that Baolinju was in a commotion at this time. Song Zhenping was holding a long knife and became excited and angry, shouting that he wanted to kill someone.
Song Dekui hugged him tightly: "Daping, we can't kill him, we can't kill him!"
Now Song Zhenping is no longer as thin and frail as before. Apart from his lame leg, he is also a strong young man.
In his anger, Song Dekui couldn't control himself at all and was almost thrown to the ground.
In front of Song Zhenping, there were several people standing, including Song Lizheng from Xiaoshi Village, Song Laoer and his wife, and Song Xiaobao.
Next to them, three strange men dressed as official servants and three men in short clothes with sinister faces were muttering sullenly.
On the Song family's side, Han Ming, Xue Zhuang, Shopkeeper Mu, and Hu Qing also led more than a dozen people to block the door of Baolin Residence.
Someone from the Song family is coming.
The atmosphere in Baolinju is tense, everyone has different expressions!
