Chapter Thirty-Four
Wu Zheng said expressionlessly: "Mr. Huang County, you, Chen Bingshen, Huang Boyan occupied the Wu family's property. It is natural to pay back the money. Wu Zheng came to ask for debts. What's wrong with Wu Zheng? Besides, Wu Zheng is an official and Chen Bingshen is a civilian. Where did you start with this private trespassing in? Could it be that Huang County Magistrate came in with so many constables before and informed the owner of the Chen family? As for the three corpses on the ground, Huang County Magistrate should have found that there was a knife in his hand, so he should understand that the official was self-defense."
Huang Degong snorted angrily, "Okay, I will go back and write a letter to the Lu Jianguo to impeach you, wait."
After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave.
"Sir Huang, please wait. Master Huang took over the 800 acres of fertile land from the Wu family. Lord Huang took over the charge of Wu Zheng's uncle and nephew surrendering to the Qing Dynasty. There must be an explanation, right?"
Huang Degong looked pale and stomped his feet and said, "I will give you the first county to give you it."
"Of course I have to pay it back, but in these three or four months, it's enough to plant a crop of grain. Can't Huang County Magistrate have an explanation?"
"You..., this county can compensate you for food."
Wu Zheng smiled and said, "Mr. Huang said so earlier. Isn't this easy to deal with? Chen Sheng."
"Subordinate is here."
"Taking twenty people to go with the Huang County Magistrate to get the land deeds, and there are still 2,400 stones of grain."
"yes."
When Huang Degong heard this, he turned his head and said angrily: "Wu Zheng, where do you start with this 2,400 stone of grain?"
Wu Zheng said: "The Wu family's fields are fat, and a mu of paddy fields can be harvested at least six stones a year. I only take you for half a year, so I have already given face to Magistrate Huang. Magistrate Huang, don't be shameless? Otherwise, I will take more than 130 people under my command to collect grain in the county government?"
Huang Degong was so depressed that he was so depressed that he had no choice but to do anything to Wu Zheng. He stomped his feet hatefully and turned around and left.
Chen Bingshen was anxious and cried, "Mr. Huang, you can't leave me alone?"
But Huang Degong is still in the mood to care about Chen Bingshen now?
He ignored the handling and turned around and left with the detective.
Chen Sheng clasped his fists at Wu Zheng and took twenty people away, and really went to get the grain and land deeds.
With dozens of people leaving, Chen's mansion became much empty in an instant.
The only thing that remains unchanged is the people in the hall.
He (she) didn't even dare to move.
Wu Zheng turned around, lifted Chen Bingshen's chin with his toes, and said, "Mr. Chen, County Magistrate Huang can't save you. You can die now, right?"
Chen Bingshen was already desperate at this time, and he knew that no one could save him.
But he had hatred in his heart, and he hated Huang for his achievements and destroyed the bridge.
So he broke free from Wu Zheng's toes and kowtowed to Wu Zheng repeatedly and said, "Mr. Wu, I was wrong, I knew I was wrong, I spare my life."
Miss Chen also knelt down beside Chen Bingshen and kowtowed to Wu Zheng, "Wu Zheng, you can't be so heartless. As long as you can let my father have a way out, even if my Chen family loses everything, they will do whatever they want."
Unexpectedly, Wu Zheng actually said, "Chen's family property? From now on, he will no longer be named Chen."
Miss Chen was shocked and said angrily: "Wu Zheng, can you rob it?"
Wu Zheng said: "You have heard that the Huang County Magistrate occupied the Wu family's property and he also had to compensate him. If your Chen family occupied more than a dozen shops in the Wu family, wouldn't he need to compensate him?"
"Then you can't use Chen's property to compensate, right?"
Wu Zheng sighed: "After all, magistrate Huang is the county magistrate. Wu Zheng is not good enough to open his mouth. Your Chen family is just a civilian family, so you have to follow my method."
"Even if you pay more than a dozen shops, you don't need to use Chen's property to charge it, right? What's the reason for you?"
"Reason? Miss Chen, you are also a person who has read books. Don't you know that you don't reason in troubled times and only talk about strength? Even if you want to reason, it's also about my Wu Zheng's reason. If I want your father to die, he will die."
Chen Bingshen suddenly raised his head and said, "Wu Zheng, if I exchange a secret for my life, will you exchange it?"
Wu Zheng was a little surprised and thought for a while and said, "It depends on the secret, whether it is worth it."
Chen Bingshen felt that life was hopeless. He was a businessman and knew best at observing words and expressions.
Seeing Wu Zheng pondering before answering, he knew that he could still make a deal with Wu Zheng.
So Chen Bingshen said: "It must be worth it. Young Master Wu, the secret I told is the secret of the private connection between Huang County Magistrate and Hangzhou Prefecture."
Wu Zheng was really surprised when he heard this.
Hangzhou Prefecture has now been occupied by the Qing army.
Shangyu County, in the southeast of Kuaiji County, is half the rear of the small court of the Lujian State.
If the Qing army headed south from Hangzhou, it would be Xiaoshan, Shanyin, Kuaiji, and then Shangyu.
If Huang Degong surrendered to the enemy, it would be like a disaster in the heart of the court.
Wu Zheng asked with a serious expression: "Do you have tangible evidence?"
Chen Bingshen shook his head and said, "I have no evidence."
Wu Zheng was furious and said, "Do you dare to talk nonsense without evidence?"
Chen Bingshen said anxiously: "Young Master Wu calmed down. Although I have no evidence, I know where there is evidence."
"explain."
"Young Master Wu must agree first, let me go and the Chen family."
Wu Zheng looked at Chen Bingshen, and then looked at Miss Chen and the row of Chen Bingshen’s wives, concubines and sons.
He hesitated and said, "Okay. I promise you that as long as you tell me where the evidence is, I can spare your life."
"Young Master Wu still has to agree and not take away my Chen family's property."
"Uh..." Wu Zheng almost choked by his saliva.
I have heard of people who want money but don’t have life, but I have never seen people who want money but don’t have life like Chen Bingshen.
He snorted angrily and said, "The Wu family's shop must be returned, and the compensation must be paid."
Chen Bingshen nodded repeatedly and said, "That's nature, that's nature, I admit to compensation, I accept the punishment, I claim to compensation, I claim to compensation of 3,000...uh."
Seeing Wu Zheng glaring at his eyes, Chen Bingshen quickly changed his words and said, "Five thousand, I will pay 5 thousand taels."
Wu Zheng snorted coldly: "I want grain and I will turn the silver into grain."
Chen Bingshen hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, now on the market, I will give you 10% more, 5,500 stones."
Wu Zheng agreed and nodded, "Okay, now we can say it."
Chen Bingshen whispered: "Before, Huang Boyan and Huang Degong discussed with me about occupying the Wu family's property...uh."
"Mr. Wu, I really did not frame the Wu family."
"Say the point."
"Yes, yes. While discussing in the yamen, I accidentally saw a letter opened in the study. Mr. Wu, do you know whose letter it is?"
Wu Zheng rolled his eyes. This man was really ignorant of life and death. He was so good at it. He still dared to speak cleverly and show off his words.
Fortunately, Chen Bingshen was not too stupid after all. Seeing that Wu Zheng had a different expression, he quickly said, "The signature was actually the Manchu Beilebolo."
Wu Zheng was furious, "Are you stupid? Don't you tell me what the Qing Dynasty wrote? Do you understand it if you recognize Manchu texts? Even if you recognize Manchu texts, how could the Qing Dynasty Beilebolo write a letter to a small seventh-rank county magistrate?"
