He Fengqiu was lying on the Taishi chair, three charcoal stoves were placed in the room, and there was a Miao girl on his legs and shoulders to hold it for him, even the gods in the sky could not be so comfortable.

In the past few years, Master He has lived a very nourishing life, since he promised Yang Qinglian to turn the Yanqin mine into an official errand, Miao Chao was leveled again, and many occupied places have discovered new mineral sources. Under the surprise, he took the lead in recruiting many civilians from the Han and Miao families to work for long hours.

Because of the benefits promised at the beginning, he couldn't wait to let his subordinates work hard, so the monthly profit he gave was also fair, and slowly from the bully of Yanqin Mansion to a good owner in the mouths of many people.

Therefore, He Fengqiu was very grateful to Yang Qinglian, although the businessman was mercenary, but that was also the last resort when it was really difficult to find food in Yanqin Mansion before. Now that everyone's life is a lot better, how much they have to touch their conscience, He Fengqiu knows that he is not a good person, but he doesn't want to be applauded when he dies.

It's just that today, a person who claimed to be sent by Huaizuozhuang heard that this part of Yanqin Mansion belonged to him, and Master He's words were the most weighty, so he came to see him and said that there was something important to discuss.

He Fengqiu's first reaction was that the other party was a liar, although the Yanqin Mansion was blocked by traffic, how could the name of the Su family in Jiangyang not know. He can shake three times with one foot in Yanqin Mansion, but in the eyes of the Su family, it is estimated that he is not as good as a fart, and people come all the way to the poor countryside to find themselves for what to do?

However, when the housekeeper presented the greeting post printed with the words of the Su family's trading house, He Fengqiu suddenly felt that he was hallucinating because of typhoid fever, and after he slapped himself twice and found that the pain was terrible, he tightly summoned the people of the whole hospital to the gate to greet him.

Knowing people first knows clothes, He Fengqiu walked all the way to the old eyes carefully looked at the clothes of the comer, only to see that he was wearing a camellia robe, and he looked at the fabric, which was definitely the best Silk Luo used the flat gold embroidery needle on the bangs to play the lace of the golden toad, showing the generous style. As for the warm and thick sea dragon skin of the neck cover, it is estimated that it is also a rare thing that can only be caught in the open sea. With a miniature carved emerald of Liuyun Baifu around his waist, the craftsmanship of the carver alone may be on par with the price of jade.

He Fengqiu couldn't help but take a cool breath, and secretly said in his heart that this person was definitely not a servant sent by the Su family.

So, he greeted respectfully: "I don't know why this old man of the Su family came to Hefu?"

"Haha, the old man is the third in the Su family, and a single name is given. took the liberty to visit Hefu, and asked Master He to accept a small gift. Su Ci nodded, and stood behind him Standing solemnly in the entourage, he walked out and handed out a minimalist but not noble brocade box.

has been running the Su family for many years, and Su Laosan naturally knows that being humble and low-key is the way to stay for a long time. What's more, as long as he is a little polite to He Fengqiu, he will definitely make the other party grateful, which will also be much beneficial to the next thing.

He Fengqiu just felt that the identity of the other party was not simple, but he didn't expect it to be so big, so he was in a hurry for a while, and after receiving the gift with his own hands, he hurriedly stepped forward and posed: "It's windy outside, Master Su, hurry up and go into the house to drink hot tea to warm up." ”

"That old man might as well be respectful. Su Ci smiled peacefully, and pointed out four solemn instructions from the people behind him: "You are waiting outside." Remember that no one is allowed to disturb the old man and Master He's discussion of important matters. ”

As the master, Master He obviously felt twisted, but he didn't dare to say anything. He could see that the people around Su Ci were absolutely extraordinary, and they might not be like the two people beside Yang Qinglian six years ago, and they would wipe out the entire Yanqin Mansion with their hands.

The door of the hall of the He Mansion was closed tightly, not only to prevent the cold wind from penetrating, but also to the third child of the Su family.

Su Ci tasted the so-called "the best tea in Hefu" that had just been delivered, and felt that it was really tasteless and difficult to taste compared to what he usually tasted. So he no longer pretended to greet him, and said to He Fengqiu bluntly: "Presumably Master He also wants to know why the old man came here, right?"

"Master Su, is there anything that needs He to do his meager efforts?" He Fengqiu was no longer as squirming as before, and planned to sit on the ground and raise the price. Joke! Dare to play music with the third master of the Su family, because he thinks he has lived too long.

"Master He is polite. This time, it is indeed the Su family who needs Master He's help. Su Ci said as he took out a booklet from his sleeve and moved it to the table, "Of course, this matter has a great deal to do with the Su family, the He Mansion, or the entire Yanqin. ”

He Fengqiu opened the booklet, carefully studied the pen and ink on it, and after a while, he raised his eyes and speculated: "Part of this booklet seems to record the taxes paid to the imperial court, and some of it is divided into three places, but it is ......"

"Master He has something to say, and the old man listens. ”

"Hey, with He's many years of experience, I can't see that the accounts in this account book are not right, could it be a fake account?" He Fengqiu was cautious.

"Hahaha, Master He guessed right. Su Ci laughed and continued to ask meaningfully: "But do you know where this account book remembers from?"

"Where?"

"Yanqin Mansion. Su Ci saw that He Fengqiu's expression changed from confused to shocked, and remembered that he was also with this expression a few days ago, and couldn't help but feel empathetic, "To be honest, the old man was just as surprised as Master He at first, because one of the other three places was a businessman who gave rebates to Yanqin, one of them happened to be the Su family, and the other part was Wei Xian, the first minister of the dynasty. ”

At this time, the teacup slipped out of He Fengqiu's hand, he never thought that he would hook up with the other two behemoths for no reason, and he didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse.

"Sue... Master Su, if the little one offends you somewhere, I implore you to be magnanimous and spare the villain. After many years of fighting, He Fengqiu cried and mourned for the first time to kneel down to apologize - people came to visit with a fake account from thousands of miles away, saying that he was here to thank him, but he didn't believe it.

"Alas, what is Master He doing!" Su Ci hurriedly helped He Fengqiu up, "When did the old man say that you did something wrong?" ”

After Haosheng comforted the tearful old man He and sat down again, Su Cicai said earnestly: "Speaking of which, the Su family is also to blame for the negligence of the Su family, the old man will tell the truth to Master He today." The imperial court has always been tolerant of the taxes of Yanqin Mansion, so the Su family chose to make a deal with Lord Yang Qinglian, one of which was to transfer part of the Yanqin mine revenue to the Su family. ”

"It's a pity, we didn't expect Yang Qinglian to secretly move. Su Ci sighed, very reluctant to admit that the always shrewd Su family was actually planted in the hands of an official, "He secretly transferred the share that should have been given to Wei Xian to the Su family, and he just made a mark." Now that this handle has fallen into the hands of others, it is difficult to guarantee that one day it will accidentally reach the palace, and once it is known by the main owner, the Su family will face a catastrophe. ”

He Fengqiu understood that Wei Xian knew about taking advantage of people in your Su family, and now he is worried that people will come over to settle accounts. But what's the matter with me? You immortals are fighting, so you don't have to stir up my little ghost into trouble.

"So the Su family is now at the point of a desperate moment, and the only one who can save us from fire and water is you, Master He. Su Ci pleaded sincerely.

He Fengqiu felt a little funny, what your Su family can't handle, what can I do as a little squire, he was a little overwhelmed and wanted to push away the troublesome things that were thrown over: "Couldn't Lord Yang help you?"

When Su Ci heard this, he was stunned for a moment and asked softly: "Doesn't Master He know that Lord Yang has been beheaded? This was all two months ago." ”

"What! What are you talking about!" He Fengqiu jumped up directly from the chair, ignoring Su Ci's identity and asked: "Lord Yang, Lord Yang, he is dead?!"

"Alas, Lord Yang has been clear all his life, and he is bent on hoeing and raping the court. It's a pity that in the end, he was criticized by Wei Xian for the crime of embezzlement and died. Now that he is at a point where he is inseparable from Wei Xian, Su Ci decisively tore his face and offended the eunuch to death.

"How could he die? How could he die? I said why I used to write every month to inquire about the situation of Yan Qin, but there was no news during this time. He Fengqiu lingered in the hall for a meeting, and he couldn't accept the bad news that came suddenly.

For so many years, he also wanted to understand what tricks Yang Qinglian had played in the past. Although he was confused by black and white at that time, he didn't hate Yang Qinglian at all after thinking about it later. Because he knew that it was Yang Qinglian who gave him a way to live openly, and it was also Yang Qinglian who gave the entire Yanqin people hope to survive in peace.

Such a man is dead! And he is dead on charges of embezzlement!

How could it be! Lao Tzu forced him to accept the bribe with his life, but he was unwilling to accept it. How could he be greedy for money! He Fengqiu shouted countless times in his heart.

Time passed slowly, Su Laosan glanced at He Fengqiu, who was on the verge of collapse, and gave a heavy blow:

"If Wei Xian learns that the Yanqin mine has been faked, he will definitely try his best to exclude the Su family from monopolizing this place. “

"If things get to that point, do you think that the merchants who rely on mining here still have a chance to finger it? And the servants who open the mines still have a good remuneration now? Yanqin still has a place for you to stand?"

"The lips are dead and the teeth are cold, please think twice. ”

"Master Su doesn't need to say it again!" He Fengqiu sharply interrupted Su Ci's persuasion, he understood what Su Ci said. He also understood that the people of Huaizuozhuang dared to say something to him so thoroughly, so he was not afraid that he would dare not agree - there were still two thugs of the Su family guarding outside the door, as long as Su Ci in the hall gave an order, there would be one less person in the world immediately.

Master He, who had been in Yanqin Mansion for most of his life, finally regained his bully nature, he gritted his teeth and squeezed out hard from between his mouth: "You just need to tell me what I need to do!"

Damn, you Wei eunuch is ruthless, I'm afraid that you won't succeed if I come from He Fengqiu Diaomin's background!
