Li Siye glanced at Xiao Ting aggressively and replied firmly: "I reported it to the Protector, but the price has not been reduced at all because of the interference of profiteers."
Lai Yao laughed angrily and asked again: "Now that the price reduction has failed, do you have any other options?"
"As long as we find out the profiteers who are obstructing us, behead them and abandon the market, and deter these unscrupulous profiteers, the price of leather goods will fall."
Lai Yao leaned his elbows on the desk, leaned forward and asked angrily: "Who is this profiteer? Have you found out?"
"In my humble position, I have assisted Cao Zhenqing, a member of the French army, to find out the location of the profiteers, which is the Lu Ji leather goods shop in the Qiuci market..."
Xiao Ting finally couldn't bear it anymore, jumped out, pointed at Li Siye and yelled: "Isn't this profiteer exactly you? Congling is guarding Li Siye!"
Li Siye was secretly annoyed that this guy actually interrupted me. This speech had been brewing for a long time. It was supposed to highlight the effect of righteousness and sternness, but was suddenly interrupted. I can no longer find that feeling and emotion.
Even if he is interrupted, he must express what he has in mind.
"I really didn't expect it, I didn't expect it! How many soldiers in Anxi suffered from cold and cold, and how many people in Qiuchi died from the cold! The culprit of driving up prices is the owner of Luji Leather Goods Store! In this lobby today, he
It’s Xiao Ting, the secretary-general of the Anxi Protectorate!”
Xiao Ting sneered: "What a thief, catch the thief! You obviously want to sell the quilt at a high price! That's why you resorted to selling it, buying it back, and selling it again at a high price!"
"Nonsense! Before I even came to Kucha, you raised the price of leather goods and enriched your own pockets!"
"You hoard!"
"You are desecrating yourself as an official! Add more crime to crime!"
Lai Yao shook his head left and right in surprise, watching the two people criticizing each other below, each with his own reasons. He felt a little confused before his eyes. He waved his palm on the table in annoyance: "Shut up! What are you arguing about?"
"Come one by one! Xiao Ting, you speak first!"
Xiao straightened his chest and his breath swelled. He resisted stroking his chest and stood up. He pointed at Li Siye and said, "Li Shou is here to catch you. Let me ask you, does your quilt cost about 170 yuan?"
Li Siye admitted frankly: "Of course."
He smiled evilly and said: "You heard me, Protector, the cost of the quilt is only more than one hundred, and it can be sold for three or four hundred yuan. I'm not satisfied! I actually hired someone to buy it and sell it again at a high price."
Lai Yao raised his hand to stop Xiao Ting from speaking, and turned to ask Li Siye: "A quilt that costs 170, and you sell it for 300 or 400? Does this count as cheating on me?"
Li Siye crossed his hands and said: "Guardian, I have mentioned this price to you before, and I put the cotton-padded jackets in Qiuci for a fair price. The price is equal to that of leather goods. The cost of woolen quilts is indeed three hundred yuan a piece. If I put it
If the price is set too low, not only will it not stimulate price reduction, but it will be counterproductive."
"What you said makes sense." Lai Yao snorted and pointed at Xiao Ting: "You can continue talking."
Xiao Ting coughed, adjusted the condition of his tongue to the best, and turned on the verbal attack mode: "Li Siye, on the surface, you publicly sold a piece for three to four hundred yuan, but you sent someone to pretend to be a customer and buy it again! Then transfer to
Lu Ji Leather Shop sold it at twice the price! This matter has been widely spread in Kucha City, and everyone can testify!"
Lai Yao turned to look at Li Siye and asked angrily: "Li Siye, what do you say?"
Li Siye snorted and laughed: "I won't waste any time arguing with you, just go for the big move!"
Xiao Ting's eyes widened: "What, what ultimate move?"
He took out a land deed from his arms, held it in both hands and presented it to Lai Yao: "Duhu, this is the land deed of Lu Ji's leather goods shop. It was found from someone's house."
Xiao Ting's face suddenly turned pale, and she stood there and stretched her neck.
Lai Yao squinted at Xiao Ting coldly, took the land deed from Li Siye, laid it flat on the table and looked at it carefully. He raised his head with a half-smile, his mood was not as angry as before, but a little calmer and gentler, but he let
The flute is as strong as falling into an ice cellar.
"Xiao joins the army. Your name is indeed written on the land deed. How do you explain it?"
Xiao Ting's psychological quality is quite good. Although his voice has a vibrato, he still grits his teeth and refuses to acknowledge it: "My name is written on this land deed, which does not mean that this store belongs to me, the protector! This land
I have already sold the land and this shop, but the land deed has not yet been delivered, right! It was sold to my cousin, Lu Qian, and the shop now belongs to him, so it is called Lu Ji!"
While he heaved a sigh of relief, he praised himself for being smart. With the nature of his cousin Lu Qian, and Li Siye becoming enemies, he would definitely try his best to throw dirt on Li Siye later! This unfavorable situation,
It will be reversed in an instant!
Although I don't know how Li Siye found the land deed from his home. He kept it very secret and no one knew about it except himself, but it is no longer important.
Another person from the Protectorate's Palace was involved! Lai Yao couldn't help but feel dizzy and slapped the table angrily: "Come here! Get this Lu Qian over here!"
The guard crossed his hands and reported: "To the Protector, Lu Qian is waiting outside the door."
"Let him in!"
Lu Qian hunched his shoulders, put his hands in his sleeves and bowed in. His route was very tricky, deliberately avoiding his cousins Xiao Ting and Li Siye.
Xiao Ting clearly knew that this cousin was unreliable, but at this juncture, he had to rely on him to regain the disadvantage. As long as he could bite Li Siye to death, he would definitely treat him more affectionately in the future.
You can also share some profits with him.
He winked at Lu Qian vigorously, and at the same time asked eagerly: "Lu Qian, did I sell this place of Lu Ji's leather goods shop to you two years ago? Did someone rent it to you again?
The shop is used to sell quilts? Is the person who rented your shop the same as Li Siye?"
Such words are already suspected of eliciting a confession. No matter how stupid his cousin Lu Qian is, he should be able to understand what he means.
A trace of resentment flashed in the corner of Lu Qian's eyes, and then he shook his head blankly: "Cousin, I don't know what you mean by this, what kind of leather goods shop?"
"That's the leather goods shop, Lu Ji's leather goods shop! It's yours!" Xiao was so anxious that she almost cursed out loud.
Lu Qian simply hesitated, bowed and crossed his hands and said to Lai Yao: "Qi Duhu, my humble position is just a small tour leader, how can I have the money to buy any shop? Besides, I didn't know there was a store a few days ago.
Such a store. Until three days ago, I personally saw Xiao Ting entering the back door of Lu Ji Leather Store and staying on the second floor of the store for a full hour!"
Xiao Ting was so angry that she yelled: "What a fool! You ungrateful bitch! You are worse than a beast!"
When Lu Qian heard the familiar and harsh scolding, his resentment intensified, and he became more determined to add insult to injury: "Captain, in my humble position, I saw with my own eyes Lu Ji's clerk dressed as a customer and went to buy the quilts brought by Congling Shou.
!”
Gao Xianzhi stroked his beard and shook his head with satisfaction. Seeing this point, the play has some flavor. Xiao Ting has already been completely defeated. What does it mean to betray relatives and leave? This is called betraying relatives and leaving!
But there are some people who won't shed tears until they see the coffin. Xiao joins the army and he is such a person. He shouted to Lai Yao: "Protector, this Lu Qian has a personal vendetta against me. He is venting his personal anger!"
Lai Yao was angry and funny, and said angrily: "It has come to this point, and you still deny it! You! What else do you have to say!"
"Come to the Protector!" Lu Qian squeezed tears from the corners of his eyes, walked around the desk and knelt on the ground with a plop: "Please the Protector to give me another chance to prove my innocence! Call the shopkeeper of the fur shop! He can prove me
Not his boss!"
Gao Xianzhi couldn't help but laugh out loud. As long as a person is in a hurry and loses his mind, isn't it true that there is no silver in this place?
But what surprised him even more was that Lai Yao actually agreed.
"Okay, let's let the shopkeeper of Lu Ji Fur Store identify who is the owner of Lu Ji Fur Store!"
Li Siye had stayed out of the matter at this moment and only had to watch the show. No matter how much Xiao Ting made a fuss, the matter had turned into a quarrel between their cousins.
Only then did Cao Zhengqing, a member of the French army, bring the shopkeeper to the Protector's Mansion. The funny thing is that it was his duty to investigate the case, but he was the last one to come on stage.
The shopkeeper staggered into the hall with injuries on his body. At this moment, there was no need for any deliberation, let alone questioning, and he knelt down in front of Xiao Ting with a plop, completely cutting off Xiao Ting's last chance of luck.
"It's over! Boss! It's all over! I've already confessed to others! I regret it! I should have killed this bastard Lu Qian earlier!"
Xiao Ting's eyes were dull, and he knelt on the ground in a daze. Just because he had a cousin, his life was over.
Lai Yao was confused after hearing this. The case seemed to be getting more and more complicated.
