Jiang Nv is indescribable

Chapter 183 Really Unworthy

Chapter 183 Really Unworthy

After returning from Malan Village, Cheng Ping, Sun Sheng and others had mixed feelings, but they finally fulfilled their mission.

After Cheng Ping reported the situation truthfully, he said, "It's fortunate that the Shangguan figured out a way to destroy the debts in public."

This fire not only burned away the haze of the past, but also burned away the doubts in the hearts of the people.A good start, if not all.

Xiao Yuandu also had a difficult feeling in his heart.

A few days ago, Jiang Nu asked him what he planned to do with the money confiscated from Fan Guang.

He returned it to fill his own pocket, but Jiangnu smiled brightly when she heard the words.

Xiao Yuandu asked her why she was smiling, she said: "How can you not be happy about the windfall from the sky?"

"The windfall from the sky is also mine, so what does it have to do with you?"

Jiang Nu blinked: "The husband's master is the concubine's, why do you and I divide each other?" After finishing speaking, she reached out and asked him for the account book.

Xiao Yuandu was once again shocked by her brazenness.

He already knew that Jiang Nu opened three shops in the West City of Jiyuan City, including the manor in the northern suburbs, and the people there seemed to be busy with the brocade business.

Sometimes he couldn't figure it out, how could a noble girl not dislike the stink of money, and be so keen on the ways of merchants?

Right now, she feels that she has fallen into the eyes of money, "Give up, the money will go back to where it came from, you won't lose a cent!"

Not to mention that he didn't intend to keep the money privately, but he did. When will it be her turn to take care of it.

Jiang Nu raised her eyebrows, and withdrew her hand regretfully, "I'm afraid Husband Master won't be able to give the money away."

As she expected, no one came to the government office to claim it for many days.

Jiang Nu said with a smile, "It's not a day's cold to freeze three feet. This frostbite cannot be cured by gentle words. What the people need is a fire..."

Xiao Yuandu disdained to steal other people's credit, "It's not me, it's Jiang——"

After a pause, he changed his words, "It's my wife."

Cheng Ping was slightly surprised, and cupped his hands: "Madam's ingenuity is amazing, which is admirable."

Cheng Ping knew that he could get out of the prison because of Sun Sheng's intercession with Mrs. Jiang.I just thought Mrs. Jiang was tolerant and benevolent, but I didn't want to be so wise.

When others praise their wife in person, it is always bad not to respond.

Xiao Yuandu frowned with his hands behind his back, and hummed reluctantly.

Even now, no matter how reluctant he is, he has to admit that Jiang Nu is not as good as he thought, just mixing spices and making powder.In fact, she knows a lot.

Doing business, governing politics, governing the people, controlling his subordinates... What else does he not know?
Cheng Ping called Shangguan a few times, and Xiao Yuandu came back to his senses, only to realize that he was thinking about someone he shouldn't be thinking about.

Coughed, turned around, walked to the desk and sat down, "What else is there?"

While asking, flipping through the copybooks on the case randomly, the originally neatly arranged copybooks were messed up by him.

Cheng Ping shook his head, "It's just that Shangguan was stunned—"

Xiao Yuandu was sitting upright, emphasizing that he was thinking about business just now.

Cheng Ping smiled.

After the embarrassment passed, Xiao Yuandu thought of something: "Old man of the Qiu family, is everything settled properly?"

Cheng Ping replied: "The money has been delivered, and I have also instructed the Li Li to take care of him more on a daily basis."

Xiao Yuandu was silent for a moment, then nodded.

Cheng Pingdao: "In addition to the five families belonging to the county, Brother Qiu Wu also gathered a crowd to loot many households and killed several people in vain. His feelings are pitiful, and his crimes are unforgivable. The Shangguan need not worry about it."

Xiao Yuandu sneered: "Why should I be stubborn. That's fine, just step back if you have nothing to do."

He glanced at the sky outside, "I should go back too."

The trip to Malan Village had almost immediate effects.

In the next few days, Cheng Ping and Sun Sheng went to several villages.

The people finally believed it. The new county magistrate was different from Wu Youde in that he was not greedy for the people's money, and he wanted to return what Wu Youde took away from them.

After hearing the news, all the towns and villages from ten miles and eight villages began to flock to the city.

The yamen office, which everyone feared and avoided, suddenly became overcrowded. They couldn't wait for the county officials to send money to their door, and the county officials didn't have to travel around.

Fortunately, there is a comparison of the account books, and a copy of all the debt notes has been copied in advance, because in addition to the real sufferers, there are also people who try to pretend to be claimants, and there are quite a few such people.

In the beginning, Sun Sheng only reprimanded a few words, but seeing that there were still many others, he simply grabbed one and beat him with a cane in front of the Yamen, and then it stopped.

However, what is even more frustrating than false claims is that no one claims them.

For these households, justice has come too late, and they can no longer wait...

The happy scene didn't last long, and soon, a problem was imminent-the account books were not cleared, and the money was gone.

"No money?" Xiao Yuandu supported the case with his elbow, rubbing his chin, "Simple."

It wasn't until Xiutu, who had disappeared for several days, suddenly returned to Yamen, followed by a long convoy of dozens of cars, that Cheng Ping understood what "simple" meant.

"Young master, Wu Youde suffered from a serious illness a few years ago, and his health has been in poor health. Hearing about Fan Guang, he couldn't eat and sleep, and died of fright. His subordinates didn't take anyone away, but emptied his family's money. Good guy!" Xiutu sighed, "There are more than a dozen warehouses, and the money is piled up in piles."

"Sir!" Cheng Ping was shocked, "It's all right if you want to hold Wu Youde accountable, how can you take someone to ransack the house yourself?!"

Cai and Sun Sheng lamented that although the new county magistrate has a violent temper, he finally has a righteous heart and can listen to advice.

Why, how did you copy Wu Youde's house in the blink of an eye?

"The magistrate of County Wu has returned to his old hometown. The imperial court has regulations. Even if an official commits a crime after he takes office, unless the superior writes to arrest him, the local official has no right to act without authorization—"

In particular, Xiao Yuandu and Wu Youde are still at the same level. If you want to bring him down, you can only report and expose him, and then the state and county will decide how to punish them.

"It's been a few days since your essay was sent up, has there been any reply?"

Cheng Ping was speechless.

In fact, I knew it would be the case.Retiring officials, unless they have committed a heinous crime, will not be held accountable. This is an unwritten rule in the officialdom, and it can be regarded as a comfort to the hearts of those veterans who have served the court for many years, so that they can enjoy their old age and die peacefully.

Xiao Yuandu spat: "He deserves to die!"

Cheng Ping nodded: "He really doesn't deserve it."

If people like Wu Youde can enjoy their old age in peace, those villagers who have been tortured by him will live without justice, and even if they go to the underworld, they can only be unjust ghosts.

"The lowly position is just a worry that Shangguan's actions will cause unnecessary trouble." Especially Wu Youde was frightened to death.

Xiao Yuandu didn't take it seriously, "I just want to ask you, if the governor of Jiuyuan County is to handle it, who will the money that Wu Youde looted fall into?"

Cheng Ping didn't even think about it, "Charge it into the treasury."

"Since we have said where it comes from and where it will go, the money stolen from Wu Xiong will naturally be returned to Wu Xiong. What kind of treasury will it be used for? I don't know whose pockets have been enriched."

Wu Youde has been able to live at ease for many years, and the governor of Jiuyuan County may not be clean. Even if he dare not blatantly covet it, the money will not come to Wuxiong County, Xiao Yuandu can't bear it.

"Rules are worth a few bucks, and you're going to die of poverty. What kind of rules do you want? What's more," Xiao Yuandu snorted, "This time, all the soldiers from the Xiao Mansion went there, not half of Wuxiong County. The people in the yamen, they are just bringing debts to press for the debt, let's see who dares to trouble me."

Don't everyone say that he is the prince of the governor and a son of Gaoliang, so how can he take this title in vain.
