Chapter 25
Qingming is different from other solar terms. Every household in Baoling City is busy worshiping ancestors, and few people come out to hang out.Therefore, today is also a rare leisure day for the large and small shops in Baoling City.

After a rain in the morning, Fang Zhiyao, the eldest lady of the Fang family, came to Jiafengxuan, the property under her name, to check the accounts.Although those who can be placed in Jiafengxuan as shopkeepers and clerks are her confidantes, but Jiafengxuan handles a lot of priceless treasures. Under the heavy money, some "brave men" will surely be born. Fang Zhiyao is obviously not Those who are willing to gamble, therefore, whenever they have time, they will come to Jiafengxuan to check the accounts in person.

While checking the accounts, the shopkeeper came to report: "Miss, someone came outside, took a white porcelain bottle and said that he wanted to pawn it, and he asked for 3000 taels!"

3000 taels?Fang Zhiyao, who was skillfully fiddling with the beads, stopped and said in surprise, "Oh? Where did the vase come from? Is it an old thing made by the master of the official kiln? Or a cracked vessel from the ice kiln that has been lost?"

As soon as these words came out, the expression on the shopkeeper's face became more subtle, and he said with some difficulty: "It shouldn't be. I saw that it was just an ordinary porcelain vase, and there were everywhere in the small stalls outside. If I can get one, there are several of them in my back kitchen, which are used to hold sauces."

It was precisely because he recognized the worthless canned sauce that the man came to him and said that he would pay 3000 taels for [-] taels. .

Fang Zhiyao frowned when she heard the words, and immediately said: "Then why are you talking nonsense with him? If you take a worthless can of sauce and open it, you will be extorted 3000 taels. Is it true that I, Jiafengxuan, are a philanthropic hall?" Go to the Yamen to report to the officials!"

Having said all this, Fang Zhiyao continued to bow her head and continued to count the accounts.

Although the shopkeeper responded, he was a little hesitant: "This person looks a bit arrogant, I'm afraid he is someone of some status."

"Which of the rich and powerful gentry in Baoling City would come to my Fang's house to play wild?" Fang Zhiyao sneered when she heard it, and then said, "Which family is really a dude who can look at canned sauce?" What kind of background can a baby boy come from? You just do it, if I, Jia Fengxuan, let a dude lose face, will I still be able to do this business in the future?"

With Fang Zhiyao's words, the shopkeeper was determined, and was about to turn around, but paused again, then turned back and said, "Miss, that person's leg is already broken, he was pushed over while sitting on a push chair, this... To break a leg?"

Sitting on a push chair to extort money... I'm afraid he is not a fool with a brain problem!Fang Zhiyao had never seen anything like this before, so she thought for a while and said: "If you can't beat your legs, you can beat your hands. If you come in with a can of sauce to extort money, you can beat that hand. After you're done, just send it to the government."

She knew that Yao's reputation for being cruel and merciless had already spread in Baoling City, so she recognized it.It seems that those who come in to extort money must be killed to make an example to the monkeys. At worst, they will pay for him to be cured after the beating is finished.

After thinking this way, Fang Zhiyao continued to look down at the accounts.

Jiang Hui and the boy who came triumphantly did not expect that the shopkeeper went in to discuss with the owner and came out. What he brought back was not 3000 taels of silver bills, but a few big men with five big and three thick carrying short sticks.

This feeling is so familiar, as if I have returned to the moment when I first came to Baoling Jiang Fat Pig brought Xiao Wu over to beat people.

Jiang Hui and the boy instinctively exclaimed, turned around and were about to run, but one was sitting on a push chair and the other was pushing a push chair. Before the man screamed out, he stuffed a cloth strip in his mouth, and then the sticks met.

The shopkeeper folded his arms and looked at him, "kindly" reminded: "The dislocation is almost done, don't really interrupt it, the main thing is to kill chickens and monkeys. Okay, okay, I took our post from Jiafengxuan and sent it to the government when it was almost done." , Said that these two people took a can of sauce and wanted to extort 3000 taels!"

The big man with the short stick hit him a few times before hastily stopped, and then tied the two of them tightly together, and directly accepted the post and knocked on the gate of the Baoling County Government.

Master Wu of the Baoling County Yamen was worshiping the ancestors in the Houya, when the process of worship was interrupted by the sound of a drum beating.

There are obviously not a few villains beaten by Jiafengxuan, Master Wu frowned when he saw a few familiar faces: "Someone came to Jiafengxuan to make trouble today?" When ancestors used to make trouble?
The man with a short stick pointed at the two people who were tied up by five flowers, explained the cause and effect, and then complained: "If you have a broken leg, you can't stay at home to recuperate well. It's too much to run out to extort money!"

It's rare to have a break, and being disturbed by these two people, I have to run back and forth, it's too much!
"It's really too much!" Mr. Wu was also very dissatisfied, and couldn't help nodding his head in agreement, especially when he saw the one with a broken leg and his head was wrapped in gauze. It was obviously an old injury from a previous beating. This kind of person was beaten Not surprising.

After slandering a few words, Master Wu asked the officer to come forward and take out the cloth balls from the mouths of the two, slapped the gavel, and asked, "Who are you waiting for? Why are you going to Jiafengxuan to make trouble today?"

"How courageous! I am Jiang Hui from Dongping Bo's Mansion. You, a merchant, dare to make people beat me! Are you impatient?" Jiang Hui, who was holding his breath all the way, signed up for his identity as soon as he opened his mouth. He spat at the big man with the short stick who brought him over, "Pooh!"

The face of the man with a short stick changed slightly, and he clenched his fists with the hands hanging on both sides of his body, but thinking of the self-reported identity of this man, he didn't get angry for a while.

The impatient Master Wu was shocked when he heard Jiang Hui reveal his identity: Although Jiang Hui is not the uncle's biological son, but a nephew, he is also his biological nephew. Officials can be provoked.

"I heard Dongping Bo Jiang Zhao is also a character," the short-stick man who was spat on took out a handkerchief and wiped the spittle from Jiang Hui's face, and said lightly, "This time there is indeed someone from the Jiang family who came to the treasure." Ling, but a young lady, has never heard of any young master. So you can't just say who you are, can you prove your identity?"

Jiang Hui was taken aback when he heard this, thought for a while, and immediately said: "Let me, this little guy, run around and call Jiang Fat Zhu, oh no, Jiang Shaoyan to prove my identity?"

Although they didn't deal with Jiang Fat Pig, they all had the surname Jiang.If he lost face in the Baoling County Government, he would also lose face to the Jiang family, and he didn't believe that Fatty Jiang would not come and take him back.

So... that's fine.Master Wu thought for a while, and readily agreed. The real Miss Bofu would have a way to prove her identity.Today's troubles in Jiafengxuan can be big or small, and it's not too late to discuss after the identity is proved.

The young servant who was untied had no time to appease his son, so he just said to Jiang Hui: "Young master, come as soon as you go." He hurried out of the county office and ran to Guangming nunnery.

Fortunately, I saw the figure of Miss Fourth before, knowing that she is in Guangming Nunnery at this time, there is no need to run around, just go straight to Guangming Nunnery to find someone.
