Mingmen Family

Chapter 223 Forensics
After finishing speaking, he continued: "Brother Jin and Zhang Zhiyi were the first to say that they want to learn, so you two will be the two of you. I will go to Jixianglou to pay the money today, and tomorrow I will send the apprentice to my tea garden in Baiteng County. If you don't go today If you pay, it will be void."

He stood up and was about to leave.

"Hey, wait, wait." A middle-aged man named Wang Kuan shouted, "I said first, I signed up before Zhang Zhiyi."

Not counting Ye Chongming's grandfather and grandson, there were a total of twelve people in the room.After registering in Jinbaoshan, other people seemed to register together, but in fact, there were some first and some later.Everyone knows who speaks first and who speaks second.

Moreover, Zhang Zhiyi is relatively honest and honest.Just now he was hesitating whether to tell the name that Wang Kuan had reported before him.

Now that Wang Kuan said it, he hurriedly said, "That's right, Brother Wang Kuan spoke out in front of me."

"I know that." Ye Chongming gave Wang Kuan a cold look, "There is no need for Wang Kuan to learn. Didn't you send two groups of people to steal the tea recipe? One group wanted to sneak into the tea garden, and the other group wanted to Buying and selling my tea maker's family members. Since there are such abusive means, you can get the secret tea recipe without spending a penny, so why spend money? I dare not accept your money. I don't know when I will be punished. You ruined your family."

Saying that, he turned and left.

This Wang Kuan is one of the people who still wants to steal the tea recipe.

"Hey, wait, what evidence do you have that I stole the tea recipe? It's completely bloody." Wang Kuan suddenly became furious like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and was about to pull Ye Chongming, "You explain it clearly to me." Let's go."

"Don't think that you are the leader of the line, and you can make tribute tea, so you can slander others at will. Let me tell you, if you can't provide evidence, you will not only apologize to me, but also cultivate three more tea producers for me for free. master."

He thought that no one knew about it, and the people he made to steal the tea recipes all turned around and invited them.Even if he was caught, it wouldn't be his fault.So what he said was very straightforward.

Meng Ji and another servant hurried forward and blocked Wang Kuan.

But Ye Chongming stopped in his tracks, turned back and sneered: "You want evidence, right? Yes, I will produce evidence. But it's not for you to see, but for the yamen to make a decision."

He looked at the others: "If there is a ghost in your heart, you don't have to go to me to pay and sign up. I can't teach if you sign up. Don't you have the ability? Then just let it go. I'll catch one. Come two, I'll grab a pair, and hand them all over to the yamen. The adults in the yamen know every detail, no matter how deep your fox tail hides, you can still be caught."

After he finished speaking, he turned and went downstairs.Ye Yaming followed closely behind.

The remaining people looked at each other in blank dismay, and the shrewd one glanced at the crowd when Ye Chongming was speaking, and sure enough, he saw a few people who were obviously guilty.But Wang Kuan was the most flustered.

"I really don't know what it means." Wang Kuan immediately said sternly in order to hide his panic, "He thought he could frame everyone with empty words by pinching tribute tea in his hand? I didn't do anything wrong. If he dares to go to the government to sue me, I will Sue him for defamation."

"Also, don't be too naive. That's tribute tea, which can sell for ten taels of silver per catty. He can sell you the secret recipe for making tea for three to fifty thousand taels of silver? Maybe he showed his true colors because of his backing , use the good reputation of the past to deceive everyone, coax all the money you have, and then just teach and pretend. Even if you go to the government to file a lawsuit, you will not win because he has a backer."

"Yeah, yeah, I also think it's strange. It's tribute tea. If the tea master we send learns, the tea produced is better than his tea. At that time, it was not known who the tribute tea belonged to, so how could he dig his own grave? In my opinion, this matter is unreliable.”

This person who agrees, just like Wang Kuan, has a perverted mind and thinks that he will sign up to learn tea, but Ye Chongming will come back without losing face like he did to Wang Kuan.

So it is better to encourage everyone not to learn tea.

In this way, what they have done will not be exposed, and they will not fall behind others because others learn tea, but they themselves do not have to learn. It also saves Ye Chongming's face and makes his plan come to nothing.

There were quite a few people who had the same thoughts as the two of them, so they also followed suit, booing and joking, and the whole house was in a mess.

They didn't realize that besides Jinbaoshan, there was a young man named Lin Xian sitting in the far corner of the room who was staring at them closely. Several of us are written in the small notebook in my heart.

So within half an hour after Ye Chongming and Ye Yaming returned to Jixiang Tower, they received two lists and conversation records, which said who and who said what.

Most of the names on the two lists are the same, only Lin Xian's list has one more name named Zhao Botao than Jin Baoshan's.

Looking at the conversation records written by the two, although the words of other people are somewhat different, they are just memory deviations or differences in diction.Only Zhao Botao and Lin Xian wrote a lot of bad remarks, but Jin Baoshan wrote two lines of slobber that couldn't be seen as good or bad.

Ye Chongming glanced at the two lists, and couldn't help sighing to Ye Yaming: "Fortunately, you asked me to invite Lin Xian."

He explained: "This Zhao Botao is Jin Baoshan's niece and son-in-law."

"Everyone has selfishness, and such things are inevitable." Ye Yaming comforted him, "Mr. Jin has done a good job in this matter today, and you have chosen the right person."

Some time ago, these tea merchants were eager to move, but they were not stupid. Naturally, they would not let their servants go to battle in person, but spent money to hire street thugs and promised them generous rewards.

And some of these gangsters were recruited by Ye Yaming, and she soon got the news and got the evidence.

But there are also some who have not been included, or have been included, and those gangsters see that the other party promises a good reward, and want to help the other party steal the Ye family's tea recipe instead.

No matter whether they are confiscated or compiled, if they are caught, if they pay more money, they can always ask who hired them.But there are also some people who do things rigorously and spend money to hire people to make a few detours.

Ye Yaming was able to follow the clues and find out the people in the end, but it was more difficult to get all these people to testify.And they didn't steal the secret recipe in the end, did they?Even if they were reported to the government, the government could not convict them.

Both Ye Chongming and Ye Yaming made up their minds not to sell tea recipes to tea merchants who resorted to unscrupulous methods.In order not to wrong the good people, the grandparents and grandsons came together to come out today.

Not only did it tell everyone that the Ye family was forced to sell the secret recipe, but it also revealed the true colors of those who harbored ulterior motives.

So Ye Chongming asked Jin Baoshan to discuss today's gathering, so as to prove his conjecture.
