Chapter 266 I’m not a gentleman
Rong Di then got down to business and said respectfully: "My subordinates have found the Taoist priest the general ordered to find."
"That person's name is Baopu."
"The Taoist temple where he is located is the Xuanzhen Temple. It is located on the top of a mountain in the outer suburbs and the roads are difficult to travel. More than 20 years ago, it was somewhat famous. After the popularity of the Niangniang Temple became strong, the Xuanzhen Temple fell into decline."< br>
"He didn't respond to his subordinate's offer."
So tough.
Rong Di did not clarify the identity of Wei Jiajun.
After all, he is not one of his own.
He only said that his master gave him a fortune telling for free a few days ago.
Taoist Baopu was very disdainful.
Then...
Rong Di: "My subordinates threw money at him. So I agreed."
The attitude suddenly changed.
Baopu never thought that one day he would be so valuable.
Afraid that Rong Di would regret it, he hurriedly took the banknotes into his arms and agreed.
Taoist temples are so poor!
There are still junior brothers and sisters to support.
He also asked Rong Di what he wanted him to do. As long as it doesn't harm nature, that's fine.
Rong Di only said two words.
On call.
Wei Zhao glanced at the sky: "Okay, I've got it, is there anything else?"
Little did Rong Di know that the general had already thought of issuing an order to expel the guests, so he reported: "All the valuables in the Zhu family's darkroom have been evacuated."
"Seeing that they had enough time, my subordinates also took the initiative to search the houses of Zhu Jiazi and Mrs. Zhu."
His search was the kind that left nothing behind.
Including Zhu Jiazi Huanghuali's bed, he also carried it away.
He unfolded the pamphlet he took out from his arms.
"Everything has been registered and has been appraised by the pawn shop."
Wei Zhao:......
He took it and turned directly to the last page.
It is the total amount of money finally made.
Wei Zhao closed it again and said lightly: "It's missing."
Rong Di agreed: "Compared with the previously stolen mansions, the Zhu family is indeed poor."
Rong Di added: "We have people in Wuyang City, and the matter can be easily investigated. The wizard was invited by the Zhu family from the Western Regions. He has been secretly working for the Zhu family these years."
"In addition to changing Zhu Jiazi's life, he also did a lot of evil magic that was harmful to nature."
"The Zhu family has been tea merchants for generations, and many people doing business have dirty hands and feet."
If you want to have a stable position and a foothold, it is not an easy task based on your background as a merchant.
At least when Mr. Zhu's father was alive, the Zhu family had a lot of shameful activities.
"After Mr. Zhu took over the business, he settled those dirty things bit by bit. He knows how to behave, and the Zhu family's business has become more and more popular."
Over the years, things happened at the Empress Temple, and he became a "good person worthy of the name".
"He did have frequent contacts with the previous county magistrate."
Other businessmen flattered the county magistrate and bribed him with all kinds of benefits.
But the Zhu family is different.
"He gives money every time. But he acts extremely cautiously, even to the point of not revealing anything."
Rong Di: "Holding a temple fair is not a trivial matter. Lifting the curfew requires a nod from the Yamen."
"Except for lion dancers and opera singers, the stall fees for these two days and the road tolls in and out of the city gate are not all free. In fact, they are all paid by the Zhu family."
Is this a good thing?
yes.
It led to the prosperity and liveliness of Wuyang City.
At the same time, it encourages poor people like the old woman in the trap to earn a little money and improve their livelihood. The kind that doesn't cost much.
This is great kindness.
Holding a temple fair will inevitably lead to petty theft and the tendency to get something for nothing.
This requires the Yamen to send people to patrol.
Rong Di: "The Zhu family will give money to buy wine as a reward. At the same time, they will also hire many people from the bodyguard bureau to protect the safety of the people."
It’s also comprehensive.
Even when the weather is slightly cooler, there are slaves from the Zhu family pouring hot water for tourists on every street for free.
"The money here is all handed over to the Yamen by the Zhu family."
"The common people know that the Zhu family's accounting office also registers in this way."
"Therefore, Mr. Zhu always went to the Yamen to deliver it in person. He never said it was to show his filial piety, so as not to leave any clues. However, the county magistrate thought it was inappropriate and put the extra money in his pocket.
But every time the Zhu family sent money, there would always be less entries in the yamen's account book.
For example, items carried in pockets do not count.
Remember only those that are used on the people.
"The account books of the Yamen match the numbers written in the Zhu family's accountant."
Later, when something happened to the county magistrate, he was going to be beheaded. Those who bribed him had no good end, except for the Zhu family.
The county magistrate actually confessed him. Faced with the interrogation of officials in Beijing, Mr. Zhu pretended to be innocent.
But who has evidence?
The evidence is clearly written on the ledger.
If the county magistrate confesses to him, it is slander.
What's more, the Zhu family's reputation is too good.
So good that everyone in the Zhu family often forgets what kind of shit they are.
Rong Di: "When my subordinates came over, they looked like they were going to interrogate me overnight."
"The county magistrate looks young, is he going to send some clues?"
Wei Zhao: "No need."
"The new officials sent to Beijing this time were all selected by He Xuran. They are not idiots, sooner or later. If they really can't be investigated, there is no need to be a parent official."
What's more, this matter also involves witchcraft.

Not a trivial matter.
Wei Zhao rubbed the wall of the cup with his fingertips, and the touch felt normal.
The girl's hands were easy to touch, as soft as if they had no bones.
——
The bedroom is lit.
When Wei Zhao was busy and went over, the girl was already lying down.
He washed himself and walked to the couch. His eyes fell on the girl's white and tender face.
The girl was nestled under the red quilt, her black hair was disheveled, and her eyes were closed.
Wei Zhao heard that her breathing was slightly faster than before. He raised his eyebrows, lowered the curtain, and held the person in his arms.
Well, the girl's body is a little stiff.
Yu Tingwan, who pretended to be asleep, didn't respond.
Wei Zhao was not in a hurry.
His hand slipped through the hem of the girl's clothes and explored inside.
"What should I do?"
He seemed to be embarrassed: "It's really not a gentleman to wake you up."
Yu Tingwan:......
But your hand says otherwise.
The next moment.
"Oh." It was a drawn out, lazy tone.
Wei Zhao said slowly: "I am not a gentleman."
Whoever likes it deserves it.
Yu Tingwan finally couldn't bear it anymore, and he kneaded it like dough.
Hold the troublesome hand on your chest.
She begged and looked at Wei Zhao: "It hurts."
"Are you awake?"
Yu Tingwan:......
Knowing without asking.
Wei Zhao looked at Yu Tingwan.
Yu Tingwan looked at him eagerly.
He laughed angrily.
"I haven't made it to 1 yet."
"/Go, you are still wearing your clothes, why do you feel pain?"
Yu Tingwan felt depressed.
The resistance on the face is obvious.
Wei Zhao sucked her lips and said, "The first few times will be more difficult, but it will get better in the future."
Yu Tingwan pursed her lips.
"Can't adapt."
She was mumbling something.
Wei Zhao: "Huh?"
Yu Tingwan whispered: "I feel uncomfortable growing up."
Wei Zhao's face suddenly turned dark.
He felt that Yu Tingwan should really wash his eyes.
Wei Zhao was even frustrated.
He couldn't change his appearance.
When Yu Tingwan saw that he didn't speak, he knew that he had misunderstood.
The girl's eyes trembled.
He said in a low voice with a red face.
"It's not about the face."
