The Great Han Dynasty: From Feng Lang Juxu to the Eternal Emperor

Chapter 234 If you want to die, don’t involve the Wei family
  After years of development, the iron tools of the Han Dynasty have become mature, and the iron tools have entered the homes of ordinary people.

Nowadays, people's daily necessities, such as kitchen knives, sledges, hoes, etc., all need iron.

The previous government-run sales could no longer meet the people's growing demand for ironware. The government had already opened a loophole, allowing the private sector to report to the government and open iron shops.

However, Weining did not propose the steelmaking method for a long time. It only took two or three months, and it was impossible for steel products to appear among the people.

The steel produced by the steelmaking method is to meet military needs. If it appears among the people, something must be wrong!
  That's why Wei Ning's expression was so solemn. He came to the iron shop in the east of the city, inserted the steel dagger into the document, and asked, "Who taught you how to make this dagger?"

"How much did you sell?"

The store owner looked a little unruly and said, "Your Excellency, are you looking for trouble?"

Wei Ning gave him an indifferent look, said nothing, walked back to the Hou Mansion, and rushed into the iron shop with Zhao Ce and others.

"Arrest people!"

The door of the iron shop was closed. Wei Ning picked up the dagger from the slip and stabbed it into the shopkeeper's arm.

Before the heartbreaking shout could be heard, Zhao Ce covered the other person's mouth.

"Don't scream, don't scream, don't alert people outside."

Zhao Ce slowly let go of his hand. Wei Ning stared at the store indifferently and said, "Who gave you this batch of steel daggers?"

"Do you know how to smelt?"

The shopkeeper's eyes were red with pain and he said: "No, I don't know how to smelt."

"Yes, it was my Alang who sold it to me. The sales were very good..."

"How much did you sell?"

The shopkeeper said: "Three, there are three to five hundred handles, one handle costs more than three thousand."

Wei Ning suppressed his anger and said, "Who is your Alang?"

"Gongsun, Gongsun respectfully."

Wei Ning glanced at Zhao Ce and said, "Get everyone under control."

"Go home!"

He returned to the Zhenbei Hou Mansion with his hands behind his back. Zhao Ce quickly returned and said to Wei Ning: "I found out... Yes, he is Gongsun He's eldest son."

No wonder Zhao Ce doesn't look so good. Gongsun congratulates Wei Ning's uncle. His wife is Wei Junru, Wei Zifu's eldest sister and Wei Ning's mother's eldest sister.

Weining's face turned cold.

Zhao Ce continued: "Gongsun Jingsheng is an official in Zongzheng Da Nong Mansion, and he is an inconspicuous little official."

Wei Ning: "I understand."

"This matter should be kept confidential and should not be disclosed to the outside world."

"it is good!"

Wei Ning thought for a while, stood up and said, "I'm going to Gongsun's Mansion. You go and ask my uncle to go to Gongsun's Mansion too."

"Here!"

Wei Ning took a deep breath.

He sold three to five hundred handles, each worth three thousand, and he made millions of dollars.

Wei Zifu alone achieved enlightenment, and the whole family ascended to heaven, but not everyone restrained themselves like Wei Ning.

Gongsun Jingsheng has always been arrogant and domineering. On the eve of the witchcraft disaster in history, it was because he embezzled tens of millions of military funds from the Northern Xinjiang Army as the trigger.

This person is now beginning to reveal his true nature!

Sooner or later, the Wei family will be destroyed by him!

The door of Gongsun Mansion was pushed open, and Wei Ning walked in with his hands behind his back.

"Ning'er, are you here?"

Gongsun He is not yet the prime minister, but with Wei Junru's relationship, he has become a servant in the imperial court.

Unlike the Three Dukes of later generations, the imperial ministers of the Han Dynasty were not high-ranking officials.

"Come inside and sit down, it's cold outside." Gongsun He invited Wei Ning.

Although they are both from the Wei family, the gap between Gongsun He and Wei Ning is really huge.

At this time, he had to serve Wei Ning carefully.

Seeing Wei Ning's unhappy expression, he asked, "What's wrong?"

Wei Ning asked: "Where is Gongsun Jingsheng?"

"I'll call Quanzi over."

After a while, a man about twenty years old came over. When he saw Weining, he said, "Little cousin! It's a rare visitor!"

"Why do you have time to come to our house?" Wei Ning stepped up and kicked him.

Gongsun Jingsheng was stunned.

Gongsun He didn't look very good either.

Wei Ning grabbed Gongsun Jingsheng, raised it high like a chicken, stared at him angrily, and said, "Are you going to destroy the Wei family?"

boom!
  Wei Ning threw him to the ground hard, causing Gongsun to scream with disgust.

Gongsun He: "That's enough!"

"Ning'er! If you have anything to say, please tell me. Why did your cousin offend you? Tell me clearly!"

Wei Ning said with a sullen face: "You ask what this idiot did?"

"Let me ask you, what did you do in Zongzheng Da Nong Mansion?"

"Are you so short of money?"

"Who asked you to give away steel weapons to sell?"

"Where did you get the courage? Do you think the Wei family has developed too well, so you want to add fuel to the flames and make us die sooner?"

Gongsun He was shocked and gasped.

How could he not know the importance of steel weapons.

The storm that a batch of iron weapons was lost in Yunzhong subsided. The big man finally produced steel weapons to deal with the lost batch of iron weapons.

The importance of this batch of steel weapons to the Han Dynasty is self-evident.

Now Gongsun Jingsheng actually dares to steal it and sell it?

Do you want money or your life?

Gongsun He blushed angrily and pointed at Gongsun Jingsheng: "Little bastard! What on earth did you do?"

At this moment, Wei Qing also walked over with a dark face.

Wei Ning had already informed Wei Qing before coming.

Wei Qing heard Wei Ning's words as soon as he entered the door. He said angrily: "Beast!"

"Is this true?"

"Are you going to let the Wei family die?"

Gongsun Jing said with a trembling voice: "This, this...I, I just got some small daggers...Is this okay?"

boom!
  Wei Qing kicked him up: "You pig brain! Do you want so much money for me to be buried with you?"

The atmosphere was cold. No matter how hard you beat Gongsun Jingsheng now, it would be useless.

Wei Qing calmed down, looked at Wei Ning, and said, "Xiao Ning, what do you think we should do?"

Wei Ning was silent for a moment and said, "Let him confess to His Majesty himself."

"Uncle, quickly activate your connections and recover all the daggers sold. No matter how much money you have, you can buy them back."

"Find out that group of people and don't let any spies get in."

After a pause, Wei Ning said: "As for how your majesty will deal with it, you should be killed or chopped up and suffer the consequences yourself!"

"Idiot who wants money rather than his life!"

Gongsun Jingsheng huddled aside and shivered, his face looking very ugly.

Didn't you just sell some daggers? How could the Wei family be so powerful and unable to deal with this matter?
  You also want me to confess to Your Majesty.

It's not a big deal in the first place, and no one has noticed it for so long, so why make such a fuss?

Gongsun He shouted angrily: "Did you hear that?"

"Get out of the palace quickly!"

"You bastard, you bastard! Get out of here!"

Gongsun Jingsheng said hurriedly: "Oh, okay, my child will go right away."

Wei Ning took a deep breath and said to Wei Qing: "Uncle, I'm sorry to trouble you. We must recover them. No one is missing. Return them intact to Zongzheng Da Nong Mansion."

"As for how Your Majesty will deal with it, don't worry or ask."

Wei Qing hummed and told Wei Ning: "Don't say you discovered this."

He glanced at Gongsun He and said, "Brother-in-law, you can bear it yourself."

Gongsun He nodded solemnly: "I shall bear the responsibility for Quanzi's fault."
