The eldest daughter is not easy to bully

Chapter 188 Start

Ling Qing saw that they came back pretty much, everyone got what they should have, only Chen Chang and the five boys who followed him didn't come back.

She waited for a while, and Chen Chang finally came back.

The strange thing is that several of them are empty-handed and dejected.

Chen Chang didn't show any emotion, and expressed his attitude to Ling Qing when he arrived: "Miss, Xiaonu's family is all in Ling's house, no matter whether they live or die, they will never leave."

The servants who followed him expressed the same opinion.

This surprised Ling Qing.

"Since you choose to stay, I won't force you." Ling Qing got up from the chair and took two steps forward.

His eyes flicked over the things that everyone was holding and placed in front of them one by one.

Ling Qing smiled in satisfaction, and suddenly shouted: "Zhu Xin."

Zhu Xin walked out of Qingpu Hall calmly, followed by a group of men in navy blue dresses.

They quickly surrounded the servants, their right hands were all on the hilt of the sword at their waists, their expressions were indifferent.

"Shang Wei, why is Shang Wei here?" The servants were all terrified.

Shangwei is the guard of the chamber of commerce.

And the person who led Shang Wei came out of the hall at last.

This person is dressed in plain clothes, and when he walks, the plain clothes on his body are light and fluffy, and his body looks as if he would collapse in the wind.

But his solemn expression revealed a shocking majesty.

"Master Liao, please uphold justice for the little girl." Ling Qing said politely.

There are no official positions in Ducheng. The highest executive is the city lord, who came over to be the elders, who came down to be merchants, who were the major merchants, and who came down to be in charge.

And every veteran has at least two stewards under him.

Qian Rong is in charge of Ducheng, the population of the mall, household registration, people's livelihood, and civil lawsuits.

Liao Shizhe was Qian Rong's manager, and all cases related to people's livelihood and civil lawsuits fell into his hands.

This is also thanks to the four big maids by her side, no, the five big maids are capable.

While she was busy dealing with the affairs of the Ling family, and went to explore the people, things, and things in Ducheng, they all freely divided and cooperated to organize them.

Xu Dazheng went to get acquainted with every corner of Ducheng, while Xu Xiaozheng continued to communicate with the mall in the area he was familiar with.

That's why Ling Qing can feel at ease and deal with the situation in front of her seriously.

She guessed that it was Liao Shizhe who delayed Martin from trying people like the chief security officer, and who randomly labeled Martin a "thief".

He nodded to Ling Qing with a dignified and righteous look: "Is it the servants of the Ling family that the eldest girl wants to sue?"

Liao Shizhe was very surprised when Ling Qing invited him to the Ling family to uphold justice.

He quickly asked someone to report the matter to Qian Rong, and then hurried to Ling's house with Ling Qing's maid, Zhu Xin.

When entering the gate of Ling's house, it was strange to see heavy soldiers guarding it. Could it be that Ling Qing had something to do with the chamber of commerce, and then wanted to deal with the chamber of commerce?
Thinking about it, I felt that I was thinking too much. I wouldn't just call him when dealing with the chamber of commerce. I should go directly to Qian's or Zheng's.

Liao Shizhe couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't think about anything, and went to have a look first.

As soon as he came to Qingputang, Ling Qing told him the whole story, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

"Yes, they all stole things from my house." Ling Qing pointed at the servant angrily, "If Prince Xiao wasn't there, they would have escaped long ago."

Liao Shizhe saw that these servants didn't even spare the pots and pans.Stealing things so blatantly, it is conceivable that the Ling family has long lost its former majesty.

He was secretly happy in his heart, but his face was calm, and his tone of questioning the servant became more severe: "You should be convicted!"

"We have been slandered, we are not guilty!" Xiao Sha threw down the flour bag and pointed at Ling Qing: "Obviously you asked us to do this, otherwise we wouldn't dare to take these things!"

The servants all agreed.

The merchants and guards gave a loud 'huh', and at the same time the sound of holding their swords and drawing their scabbards sounded.

The servants immediately shut up.

Liao Shizhe took a look at Ling Qing, and asked the servant: "Tell me why you stole things from the Ling family."

"We didn't steal!" Xiaosha wanted to refute, but when he met Liao Shizhe's sharp eyes, he wisely stopped refuting, but answered honestly.

"Because Ling Qing swallowed our wages all by himself, he asked us to take anything from the Ling family for wages if we couldn't afford it. If you don't believe me, Liao Liao, you can ask Butler Chen. All the money was confiscated."

Xiaosha and the servants still wanted to find Chen Xing, but they couldn't find it.

"Ling Qing, where did you hide Chen Xing again! Hand it over quickly!"

"Hand over it!"

"Hand over it!"

The servants started arguing again, and the merchants and guards didn't seem to intend to 'scare' them, and they unanimously stopped moving.

Ling Qing understood it at a glance.

"Master Liao, do you believe that the city lord's mansion can't afford to pay the servants?" Ling Qing ignored the anger of the servants and asked Liao Shizhe.

Liao Shizhe said with certainty, "I don't believe it."

What he believed was that no matter how bad the Ling family was, it would only lose their reputation.Money will never be lacking no matter what.

Ducheng belongs to the Ling family and represents reputation; the mall belongs to the Ling family and represents wealth.

Whether Ducheng can still be kept by the Ling family, he is not sure.

But as long as the mall survives for a day, it is impossible to uproot the Ling family.

"Then, will I, Ling Qing, ask these unscrupulous servants to steal from my house?" Ling Qing asked again,
There was still something Liao Shizhe didn't understand. Even if Ling Qing made the servants willingly jump into this round, it wouldn't be Ling Qing's fault.

This means whoever is powerful has the right to speak.

"This is obviously impossible." Liao Shizhe said.

These words made the servants feel an unprecedented panic.

If they were convicted, not to mention they would be expelled from the Ling family, they might be executed directly.But what they are more afraid of is being expelled from Ducheng.

Thinking of the result of being expelled from Ducheng, how could they have the strength to make a fuss, and everyone shrank their heads like a frightened bird.

Ling Qing looked at the servants: "They signed death contracts with my Ling family, which means that life and death are decided by the Ling family. However, since they have been slaves and handmaids for the Ling family for so many years, they will be exempted from death and all will be driven away. Get out of Ling's house and get out of Ducheng."

"Miss, this is to cancel their urban household registration, isn't it?" Driving out of Ducheng means canceling their registration in disguise.

"Correct."

"I understand." Liao Shizhe turned around and asked someone to go to the chamber of commerce and bring the household registration book.

When the servants heard the result, they burst into tears.

Driving them out of the city is better than letting them die.

People who have been driven out by Ducheng and have their citizenship canceled have no way of life outside.

Soon, the person Liao Shizhe sent to get the household registration came back.

He took the box that Zhu Xin handed over, which contained the prostitution contracts signed by all the servants here.

The servants had no luck at all. They thought that these deeds of sale were in Jiang Qing's hands, but they didn't expect that they had already been in Ling Qing's hands.

Ling Qing was also wondering why Jiang Qing handed over the slaves' deeds of sale to Ling Chengtian.

And this will be in her hands again, because these deeds of sale are packed in a wooden box together with the general ledger of the mall.It was the day when I was talking with Xu Xiaozheng about the whereabouts of the money.

That's why Ling Qing made such a play.Inviting Liao Shizhe, one is to get in touch with this person, and the other is to clean up the Ling family's eyeliner in a legitimate way.

But now it seems that the sweeping is not very clean.

Because not all slaves are sinful.

For example, Chen Chang.
