Chapter 539
The Leizhou Prefecture Office has no subordinate relationship with the Leizhou Guard, and these belong to two yamen in different systems. However, Lin Qingran, the prefect was too strong, and the senior officials of the Leizhou Guard were unable to win the morale of the army, which made Lin Qingran take advantage of loopholes.
In fact, this also reflects the current situation in the Ming Dynasty officialdom. The stronger the background and ability of an official, the greater the influence he will have.
Even if some people sit in the prefect, their government orders do not come out for the entrustment room, and their power is emptied by the people below. Although some people are county magistrates, their power is greater than that of county magistrates.
The same is true between the yamen and the yamen. For example, the cabinet has no subordinate relationship with the six ministries, but because the cabinet is powerful, the six ministries are now obedient to the cabinet.
After these days of operation, Lin Qingran not only managed the officials of Leizhou Prefecture to obey, but also had already infiltrated the Leizhou Guard. Now Xiao Rihui not only neglected his duties, but also lied about his military achievements, but also angered Lin Qingran.
The same is true. Lin Qingran gave up his original intention of living in harmony with Xiao Rihui and decided to get rid of this Leizhou Guard.
"What are you doing while standing there? Come and save me!"
When Xiao Rihui was arrested and escorted out of the military yamen, he shouted a loud underground order to the Leizhou guards.
However, the second-in-commander of Leizhou Guards was always suppressing the commander Tongzhi, but he could not move anyone. Some even watched him take him away by the constable with joy.
They all have a reputation in their hearts. Not only did Xiao Rihui use his position to occupy their military camps, but he often took military achievements for himself. It was him in charge of Leizhou Guards, which made them miserable.
Now he lets more than 30 Japanese pirates outside the city harm the people, and even the people come to him and ignore them. However, he is a good player to seize military merits and actually wants to take yesterday's military merits for himself.
Let me ask, how could such a chief officer be willing to stand up for him and work hard for him?
"You bastards, when I come out, I will chop you up and feed you to the dog!"
Xiao Rihui had no intention of remorse. Seeing that these subordinates did not come out to save him, he said he would settle the score with them. But he didn't know that his words completely pushed Leizhou Guard to Lin Qingran.
The news soon spread throughout Leizhou Prefecture, but the people of Leizhou clapped their hands and praised them regardless of whether Lin Junran was suspected of being in trouble.
Yesterday, Lin Qingran and his men had wiped out most of them, and only more than 30 Japanese pirates were left to flee around Leizhou City. Today, Xiao Rihui ordered Leizhou Guards to retreat to Leizhou City and not to leave, allowing those Japanese pirates to harm the people outside the city. This is a foolish official.
behavior.
Now Lin Lei Gong arrested Xiao Rihui into the government office and sent Leizhou Guard to rescue the villagers. This is the great honest official who is doing something beneficial to the people of Leizhou.
Lin Qingran led someone to escort Xiao Rihui back to the government office, knowing the principle of taking preemptive action. After ordering Xiao Rihui to be detained, Sun Jixiang asked Sun Jixiang to collect evidence of Xiao Rihui and intends to appeal directly to the Guangdong Metropolitan Office.
Sitting down at the desk in the signing room, taking a sip of ginseng tea, and asking Sun Jixiang: "Qingfeng, is there anything important to do during my time in the government office?"
Qingfeng is Sun Jixiang's name. He is taking care of many of the daily affairs of the government office, but he saw him shook his head and said, "The government office is nothing, but Manager Weng and Manager Shen have come to you twice.
It seems that there is something to discuss with you!"
"So it! If you send someone to inform them, you will say I will invite them to have supper together in the United Restaurant!" Lin Qingran used the tea cover to pick up the tea and made a decision.
"Okay!" Sun Jixiang agreed, reported some trivial matters about the government office, and then turned around and left.
Lin Weiran didn't have much business at hand, so he flipped out "Zizhi Tongjian". Seeing that the time was almost the same, he returned to the room in the back house and changed into clean clothes.
The wild girl Hu Niu went to Lianzhou Prefecture to attend the birthday party and had not returned. The back house was also lacking in anger and seemed a little deserted.
With the launch of chili hot pot and the best season to eat hot pot, United Restaurant's business is extremely popular. Customers who came a little later can't find a place at all.
Lin Weiran led Tie Zhu and others to the two floors and arrived at the private room he booked. Manager Weng and Master Shen Liu were already waiting here, but there was a new shopkeeper inside.
"The villain's surname is Hua, and he is the shopkeeper of Sihai Business!" The shopkeeper Hua followed him up and took the initiative to salute Lin Qingran.
"Sihai Business Name?" Lin Qingran had a faint impression, but he couldn't remember where he had seen or heard of it. However, he was not confused about this issue and asked someone to take the hot pot up.
As the night comes, the weather has cooled a lot, and eating this hot pot is very comfortable.
Because there was an outsider present, Lin Weiran did not talk too secretly, and Mr. Shen is also a master, focusing on the latest interesting stories.
Mr. Shen Liu said vividly: "Our joint restaurant in Chaozhou City just started to try it for free. A rogue had eaten too much and his mouth was swollen. He insisted on giving him a tael of silver to see his husband!
Early the next morning, he came to eat hot pot and gave us a friend to stop him. Our friend said that he could not afford the medicine fee. He vowed not to extort the medicine fee this time, but our friend still refused to let him take it. In the end, he was
He was so anxious that he took out the two silver he had vacated yesterday, and took out all the money he had on him, saying that he would have to have another hot pot today, otherwise he would be killed here."
Storekeeper Hua and Storekeeper Weng both smiled and were very interesting, and asked what to do in the end.
Lin Qingran continued to eat beef and found that Master Shen Liu looked at him in confusion. He smiled and said, "Ask Mr. Yang, is this the counsel he was looking for?"
"So it's a sir?" When Manager Weng heard this, he immediately said in surprise.
"You said that, it's really possible that it was a double act played by Mr. Yang!" Mr. Shen frowned slightly, and found that this matter was indeed a bit unreasonable, especially in a few days, this matter could be transmitted from eastern Guangdong to Guangdong.
In the West, someone must be fueling the fire.
"Haha... I'm not afraid of laughing at Master Fu Zun! After tasting this hot pot, if you don't let me taste this thing again, I will be killed here!" Manager Hua smiled with a self-deprecating smile.
"Indeed! This hot pot is really popular. I don't know how many people can even give up their lives in order to eat him!" Mr. Shen nodded slightly and said with some emotion.
In fact, hot pot is now popular and has been sought after by many distinguished guests. Yang Chunlai has not been in Leizhou City recently, and he is using the fastest speed to open the United Restaurant in Guangdong and Guangxi.
When he had almost finished eating, Lin Weiran turned to Master Shen Liu.
Mr. Shen put down his chopsticks and then formally introduced: "The shopkeeper Hua is in the cotton business. He has brought a hundred dan of cotton to our Leizhou City and wants to cooperate with us for a long time. He has a way in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
We can supply a lot of cotton to us for a long time!”
It is not a big mistake for Mr. Shen Liu and Mr. Weng to attach so much importance to this Mr. Hua. Now the production capacity of the United Workshop has gradually increased, and it is highly likely that Mr. Simon's order of 50,000 is completed.
At present, for the United Workshop, the biggest problem is not its own production capacity or market demand, but a scarcity of raw materials, especially the demand for high-quality cotton.
Now they are looking for cotton in small batches everywhere, but someone takes the initiative to send 100 loads of high-quality cotton. How can they not feel excited about "filling from the sky"?
Lin Weiran looked at the shopkeeper Hua thoughtfully, and the answer was about to come out. The real seller was probably Mrs. Jiang. He had already rejected Mrs. Jiang directly, but this woman did not give up and transported a hundred dan from Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
High-quality cotton.
"Please believe in my ability. I can guarantee the quality of cotton, and you can get as much as you want!" Manager Hua looked at Lin Weiran and said sincerely.
Lin Xuran knew that the Hua family did have this strength. Although he had rejected Mrs. Jiang before, this channel was still quite attractive when it came to him.
Although he can also complete production needs through small batches of procurement, it requires a lot of effort. In addition, this small batch of procurement often encounters inferior products as good products, which is very unfavorable to the quality of Leizhou cloth
.
Lin Qingran wiped his mouth, knowing that he was taking advantage of the loophole for this business-friendly woman, so he asked quietly: "What price do you want?"
As soon as this question arose, Master Shen Liu and Mr. Weng also looked at Manager Hua nervously, wanting to know the other party’s reserve price.
"The current market price is twice. We can ensure quality and quantity, and we will get as much as we want!" Hua Jianguan quoted directly and added.
Lin Weiran frowned and looked up at him and said in a deep voice: "Is this the reserve price she gave you?"
"Not bad!" Manager Hua's eyes flashed in surprise at first, but nodded with certainty.
"I'm so greedy, let her transport the cotton back!" A hint of anger flashed across Lin Qiran's face. This woman was taking advantage of the situation and wanted to bite a ball of meat on him.
Mr. Shen Liu looked at Mr. Weng and wanted to speak, but he secretly pulled his clothes and shook his head gently at him. He naturally knew that the price was not too outrageous, but he was not used to speaking now, and things were
Don't rush for a moment.
"Master Futai, I have to report back to our master, I will say goodbye first!" Manager Hua's eyes were a little disappointed, and he saluted respectfully at Lin Xuran, and then turned around and left, intending to go back to report the bad news.
Lin Qingran looked at the departure of Manager Hua, frowned deeper, and had to weigh the gains and losses in his heart. The price of twice as high made him a little unacceptable, and he did not want to cooperate with Mrs. Jiang, and he was even more unwilling to be bitten by her.
Big mouth.
