When Lin Jiuniang got off the boat, Wu Tianci came to the dock with a group of government servants with an expressionless expression.
After arriving, he asked people to disperse the people waiting on the pier without saying a word, leaving only the people on the pier aside.
Gu Dongsheng glanced at Lin Jiuniang, looked in a certain direction, and then turned to work.
Lin Jiuniang didn't miss Gu Dongsheng's eyes, her heart sank, she was here.
The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, but he calmly walked towards Wu Tianci and smiled softly:
"Mr. Wu, you have such a big posture, and you drive my God of Wealth away as soon as you come, which makes me a little bit overwhelmed.
Others don't know, and they think something big happened at my dock, and the impact is not good, Mr. Wu, what do you think?"
"Lin Jiuniang, I know you are a sharp-tongued person, and I am here to talk nonsense to you. Your dock stall is in big trouble," Wu Tianci sneered, with a distant look in his eyes, "I am here to handle the case now, hurry up
Get out of the way, otherwise you will be punished for the same crime, and the crime will be increased by one, do you hear me!"
These days, he knows enough things, and he has to admit that Lin Jiuniang is powerful.
A plate of cassava points out what she did, and it is something that people will never forget.
During the previous drought, she did do a lot of good things for the people of Anle Town, but this can never be an excuse for her to break the law. The emperor is as guilty as the common people when he breaks the law, let alone a businessman?
Therefore, he will never allow any crime or crime to happen under his nose.
If evidence of her crime is found, he will definitely punish her severely. He hates people who pretend to be good people but do despicable things!
He gave her an indifferent look, and then took people on board to search her.
Lin Jiuniang's face turned cold and she reached out to stop him:
"Master Wu wants to search the ship, I won't stop him, but I have to give him a reason. I am a law-abiding citizen, and I do business as expected.
If Mr. Wu doesn't say anything and just searches my ship, and I don't accept it, how will others see me, Lin Jiuniang?"
Wu Tianci frowned and stared at Lin Jiuniang with gloomy eyes, "If you stop me again, your crime will be increased."
"Haha," Lin Jiuniang sneered, with a trace of ridicule at the corner of her mouth, "If you find out that I broke the law, then your crime will be increased. If you don't find out that I broke the law, then what does this mean to you, sir?"
"Master Wu, I'll leave it at that. If you want to search the ship, give me an explanation. I'll let you search. If anything is found, I plead guilty. If nothing is found, should you give me an explanation?"
"After all, my business will definitely be affected if you spill a big dish of dirty water."
Wu Tianci's face darkened, "Bold!"
"Lin Jiuniang, you are just a businessman, what qualifications do you have to stop the government from handling the case?"
"How can a cunning woman like you know how the government handles cases? It seems that the successive county magistrates have spoiled you rotten and made you ignorant of the limitations of heaven and earth!"
"Come here, drag her aside for me. If she gets close to the ship again and affects my handling of the case, I'll take action directly. You're welcome."
As soon as he finished speaking, two government officials stepped forward to stop Lin Jiuniang, while Wu Tianci angrily led people onto the boat.
Lin Jiuniang still wanted to stop her, but the two government officials had sad faces:
"Ms. Lin, please don't embarrass us."
"Yes, Mr. Wu is now questioning everyone in the yamen. Erlang has been asked to go home and wait for notification. So, Madam Lin, please wait aside."
…
Lin Jiuniang's eyes flashed and she glanced angrily in the direction of the ship:
"Okay, I won't embarrass you!"
"I'm so angry. I'm going to the bridge to have a look. Do you want to follow me and have a look?"
The two of them looked at each other and shook their heads. Anyway, the adults said, just don't let her get close to the boat. She wants to go to the bridge. There is no one on the other side of the bridge, and it is so far away that she can't reach the boat, so don't worry about it.
Lin Jiuniang walked toward the bridge angrily, kicking the stones on the ground with her feet.
This appearance made the two government officials shake their heads. Mrs. Lin's business has been so big, but she still has the same temperament as a child.
Wu Tianci moved very quickly. After getting on the boat, he immediately asked people to drive Lin Jiuniang's people off the boat, and then began to lead people to search the boat, not sparing any corner of the boat.
Only then did the officials know that what they were looking for was salt.
He had not said anything just now because he was afraid that the people on the ship would hear the news and destroy the evidence first, and then his work would be in vain.
Not long ago, he received an anonymous letter reporting that Lin Jiuniang's ship that had just entered the dock had two thousand kilograms of private salt hidden in it.
You must know that salt is a rare and important material. It is not allowed to be sold privately without the consent of the court. Once discovered, it will definitely be a serious crime.
Two thousand kilograms of private salt, once verified, would be enough to make Lin Jiuniang's head fall off ten times!
Therefore, no news about this matter must be leaked.
After arranging for people to search everywhere on the ship, Wu Tianci himself also led people to search everywhere where there might be hidden compartments.
Two thousand kilograms is definitely a lot of weight.
The space required for hiding is relatively large.
Wu Tianci stared at the bilge!
But apart from the kudzu, nothing suspicious was found in the bilge.
Wu Tianci frowned, no?
So, Lin Jiuniang was falsely accused?
At this moment, Chen Er rushed over excitedly, "Sir, I found it!"
Wu Tianci was overjoyed, "Where is it? Quick, take me there!"
"Here it is!" Chen Er raised the jar in his hand, "Sir, I found this half jar of salt in the place where they usually cook."
Wu Tianci's face turned dark and he almost couldn't breathe.
"Sir?" Chen Er looked innocent. Aren't he looking for salt? Why does your Excellency look so unhappy?
Wu Tianci shook his hand depressedly and glanced at the cabin. Could it be that the report letter was fake again?
Lin Jiuniang didn't smuggle salt?
With this doubt, he got out of the bilge and walked back to the deck. He happened to see Lin Jiuniang kicking a round concrete pier on the other side of the unfinished bridge.
When he saw the cement block rolling into the river, Wu Tianci's expression changed drastically, and he immediately shouted to the people on the shore to stop Lin Jiuniang, and he himself hurriedly got off the boat and headed straight for Lin Jiuniang.
Damn it, why did he forget another thing?
Lin Jiuniang looked at the government servant who rushed towards her with an innocent face, "What's wrong with me?"
"I just kicked a concrete block into the river. Is it illegal?"
The yamen servant smiled bitterly and did not dare to speak, waiting for Wu Tianci to arrive.
After Wu Tianci arrived, he looked at Lin Jiuniang angrily, "Who allowed you to come here?"
Lin Jiuniang was very happy, "Master Wu, are you a rogue?"
"If you want to search my ship and don't allow me to get close to it, I can still understand the reason.
But what happened to me here?
My coming here has hindered your search for the ship again?
Or is this also a crime scene and I can’t come?”
"right!"
Wu Tianci's face darkened, he glared at Lin Jiuniang angrily, and immediately asked someone to go down to the river and fish out the cement block that she had thrown into the river.
Lin Jiuniang laughed angrily, "Master Wu, you are deliberately looking for trouble and targeting me, right?"
"There is something wrong with my ship, and now the bridge construction site is also a crime scene."
"Mr. Wu, if you want to target me, it really doesn't need to be so complicated. You can just say that I am the murderer. Just put up the body and say that I killed it. Why bother to go to such trouble? After all, the official name has two names.
Who says I can win you?"
Wu Tianci glanced at the man who was going to salvage, and glared at Lin Jiuniang with a livid face:
"Lin Jiuniang, please stop talking nonsense here. I will not falsely accuse anyone. If the contents of the report letter are found to be true, I will not be lenient."
After saying that, he immediately asked someone to bring Ye Xiangnan, and then he took someone to check him.
Lin Jiuniang's eyes flashed with a cold light, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, half-smilingly.
