Keyboard Immortal - 279. Chapter 278
In the face of his harsh accusations, Zu An was not aroused by him, but turned to Zheng Dan aside.
“Isn’t your eldest here? Of course she is in charge of such a big thing. If she wants me to be responsible, I will be responsible. If she doesn’t want me to be responsible, I won’t be responsible. What do you think, Miss Zheng?” Zuan smiled. Hold her.
Zheng Dan’s face was reddened. This guy deliberately said this to take advantage of me, but he still replied: “Grandpa, everything is for official business, so why should you be held accountable?”
Zuan laughed: “Miss Zheng doesn’t need me to be responsible for the best. It seems that our friendship is pretty good.”
Sang Qian frowned and subconsciously supported the helmet on top of him. Why did he feel that today’s hat was a little uncomfortable to wear.
“Since the young lady has spoken, come with me.” Hou Yun walked in front and motioned to the person under his hand to open the hatch.
Sang Qian waved his hand, and the soldiers under his hand filed in and went in and searched.
Zu An also winked and asked the Chu family to follow in. Now he can’t trust Sang Hong’s people anymore.
Then he was still worried, and followed in.
Sang Qian and Zheng Dan exchanged glances and followed in.
The sack piled up like a mountain in the cabin. The soldiers looked rather rough on inspection, and directly inserted the knife into the sack, and then pulled it out.
Seeing the cottonseeds constantly flowing out of the sack, Hou Yun looked sore and hurriedly got up: “Don’t make it so messy, you have to see which bag I will open for you.”
It’s a pity that no one paid any attention to him, so he had to run over to Zu’an and said, “Uncle Chu, the inspection has been done now. You should rest assured, right?”
Zuan was noncommittal and pushed him directly away, and went straight to the bottom layer, watching the dense pile of sacks below.
He wanted to check the bottom, but it was unrealistic unless someone unloaded all the cargo inside.
However, he quickly reacted, and he subconsciously used the experience of the previous life to think about it. Today is the world of practice, and the strength of practitioners is many times greater than that of ordinary people.
So he did it himself and began to lift up the sacks held in the bottom bin bag by bag.
The guards of the Chu family also rushed over to help, and it didn’t take long for them to clear the three-foot-square pit.
“Uncle Chu family, what are you doing!” Hou Yun was anxious, and hurried over to stop him, but was stopped by Feng Daniu.
Zuan’s face was as sinking as water, and he lifted a few sacks from the bottom and jumped out.
“Why is Steward Hou so anxious?” Zuan threw a few sacks at his feet.
“Am I in a hurry? I am in a hurry, hahaha~” Hou Yun hit a few haha, but everyone could see the fine sweat on his forehead.
Zu An glanced at Zheng Dan and Sang Qian, and smiled in his heart when he saw their dignified faces.
He directly drew a knife and stabbed it into those sacks.
A group of people craned their necks to see that it was not cottonseed that came out this time.
But what disappointed Zuan was that it was not the white salt at all, but the yellow sand.
“Why are you loading yellow sand in the cargo?” Zu An’s heart jumped, and his previously unknown premonition finally became a reality, so he was actually not so surprised at this time.
Hou Yun said with a smile: “My uncle’s fingers don’t touch the sun and spring water. Naturally, I don’t know what we have to do. These are used to be the ship’s rock and avoid the big wind and waves.”
Everyone knows that before Zuan became the aunt of the Chu family, he was just a shabby settlement on the street, and Hou Yun seemed to have been living a life of dignity over the years, so his words were full of ridicule, and everyone could hear him.
Zuan’s eyes narrowed slightly. This guy is showing me the yin and yang routines, okay!
He was too lazy to talk nonsense, and quickly checked the other sacks again. Seeing that most of the flowing out was yellow sand, he couldn’t help but sneered: “Do you need so much sand to hold the ship?”
Hou Yun took out his handkerchief and wiped the fine sweat from his forehead: “Let’s bring more yellow sand on the boat, isn’t it illegal?”
Zuan pointed to the full warehouse of goods and said, “If nothing happens, most of the goods on this ship should be yellow sand, right? Is this the way the Zheng family does business?”
When he said the last sentence, he already looked at Zheng Dan.
Zheng Dan frowned slightly, this behavior is indeed a bit suspicious.
“This…this…” Na Hou Yun kept wiping his sweat, obviously he couldn’t think of any reason to explain it for a while.
“Come, take away, and interrogate strictly!” Zuan ordered directly.
Sang Qian stood up: “I’m afraid this is not appropriate. The Chu family does not have the power to enforce the law. This person should theoretically be handed over to our anti-secret agents.”
Zu’an said coldly: “Today was supposed to be pretty stable, but it turned out that the anti-smuggling agent got the news in advance and the cargo was dropped. Isn’t it inappropriate to give it to the anti-smuggling agent?”
Sang Qian was furious: “You mean I leaked the news?”
The anger value from Sang Qian is +213!
Zu’an replied indifferently: “I didn’t say that General Sang leaked, but the anti-secret agents have many eyes, and there are internal responses from private salt dealers in the security, and we have to guard against it.”
“Nonsense, you are slandering, slandering our hard-working soldiers in Hefang Camp!” Sang Qian looked at him fiercely.
The other soldiers in the river defense battalion also had bad eyes, and put their hands on the handle of the knife one after another.
The rage value of Soldier A from the River Defense Battalion is +66!
The rage value of Soldier B from the River Defense Battalion is +66!
Soldier C from the River Defense Battalion has an anger value of +66!
…
The Chu family’s guards gathered around tightly, looking nervously at the surrounding soldiers one by one.
Zuan wasn’t worried. The guy Sang Hong made such a scheme against the Chu family, and it seemed that he was not the one who insisted on it.
Now countless people know that I have come to the dock, and there are so many Chu family guards with me. If something happens, it will be a big deal.
Seeing that the tension was on the verge of breaking out, Zheng Dan took a step forward and stopped between the two sides: “Azu, hearing you say this is to suspect that our Zheng family is involved in smuggling.”
“I don’t mean that, but it’s possible that some people from the bottom lie to smuggle salt, and you are also victims. I think you want to find out all of this, right?” Zuan replied.
“We naturally want to find out all of this, but if people know that our Zheng family steward has been arrested, what will everyone think? We will definitely suspect the Zheng family first, causing irreparable loss to our family’s reputation.” Zheng Dan said .
“Those who are clear are clear, and those who are turbid, why should Miss Zheng worry about this?” Zu An smiled slightly, still not giving way.
It was impossible for Sang Qian to let him take the people away, and for a while, he stood in a stalemate.
At this moment, there was a sound of neat footsteps, and then a loud laugh came back: “If this is the case, why don’t you leave it to us?”
Zuan looked back and found that he was also an old acquaintance, and county lieutenant Pang Chun rushed over with a team of government officials.
Sang Qian said coldly: “At this time, the scope of our anti-commercial powers? Isn’t the county lieutenant a bit overwhelmed?”
Pang Chun didn’t get annoyed, and smiled slightly: “Leader Sang is serious. Didn’t I see that both of you don’t want the suspect to be taken away by the other party? Wouldn’t it be better to find me, a neutral third party, to interrogate him? .”
Sang Qian wants you to be neutral.
At this moment, Pang Chun added: “Leader Sang has an in-law relationship with the Zheng family. This time it is the Zheng family who was involved. Should we avoid suspicion?”
Sang Qian was shocked. He knew that he was definitely unable to take the people away under the current situation. In that case, it is better to hand the people to Pang Chun than to the Chu family.
There is no objection from Zuan. Pang Chun is from Xie City Lord. In a sense, Xie City Lord and Chu Family are not in the same line, but they are also not in the same line as Sang Hong, and Xie Family and Chu Family The relationship should be closer.
Soon Pang Chun took the people away, and at the same time sealed up many people’s evidence at the scene.
Zuan also hurried back to inform the Chu family of what happened here.
After the two parties had gone, Sang Qian called Zheng Dan to a secret corner and looked at her dissatisfiedly: “Why do you leave Hou Yun? Why are the bags full of yellow sand in the cabin? There are so many flaws. You can see the problem.”
Zheng Dan replied: “It was too late when we received the news. Even if you and I delay repeatedly, the time is still too late. Where can we rush to find so many cottonseed goods? It is the best result to be able to replace it with yellow sand. ”
“As for Hou Yun, if you want to complete these things in a short time, someone will be here to make overall arrangements. He is the best candidate.”
Sang Qian knew that she was telling the truth, but he was worried when he thought of Hou Yun being taken away: “But Hou Yun was taken away by Pang Chun’s people. If he says something that shouldn’t be said, it will be troublesome. It’s big!”
Zheng Dan smiled slightly: “Don’t worry, Uncle Hou is an old man in the family, you can trust it. Moreover, after decades of storms, some small troubles can’t scare him at all. Besides, there is no solid evidence for all this today.”
Sang Qian sneered: “Many times, wherever evidence is needed to handle a case, you probably don’t know how severe the punishments in the yamen are. The heroes in the drama who can endure severe torture are really rare. I think that Hou Yun is a patron of If it falls into my hands, I will keep him for three days and shake out everything he knows.”
Zheng Dan sighed: “So we have to rescue him in the shortest time, so as not to have many dreams at night.”
“It’s all in Pang Chun’s hands, and the people of the Chu family are also staring. How can it be so easy to rescue?” Sang Qian said dissatisfied.
Zheng Dan’s face is still calm: “Don’t worry, I have already figured out a way since I received the notification from the beginning, and I have also talked to Uncle Hou. He is also psychologically prepared for being caught.”
“What way?” Sang Qian hurriedly asked.
“You will know tomorrow. Of course, Master Sang will need to cooperate.” Zheng Dan replied.
Seeing her pretending to be mysterious, Sang Qian didn’t bother to ask, because that would make him stupid, so he asked another question of concern: “By the way, what about the private salt before?”
“The time is in a hurry, of course it’s poured into the river, otherwise it will be over if our Zheng family is found.” Zheng Dan sighed, his brows were filled with regret.
“Zu’an of the dog day, how much money did we lose!” Sang Qian was so angry that he yelled at the answer.
The anger value from Sang Qian is +999!
Zheng Dan still had the perfect lady smile on his face, but he secretly sighed in his heart that his fiancé looks pretty majestic on weekdays, but when he encounters something, he panics like this and will only be incompetent and furious. In this regard Far worse than his father.
In comparison, although the guy Zu’an usually plays around, he is terribly calm and difficult at critical moments.
Thinking of the things between her and Zuan before, she suddenly felt a little heartbeat speeding up, and a faint blush spread on her white face unknowingly.
