The 1313th chapter turned out to be him
Rongqing Hall, backyard of Duke Xinguo Mansion
Hai Lanzhu, Da Yuer, Zhezhe, Zheng Tuoniang, Shinniang, Kanaya and other Yang Feng's wives and concubines gathered here, while Song Ye stood respectfully in front of the girls, his eyes drooping slightly at the ground.
Hai Lanzhu sat upright in the middle and was as deep as water. Zhezhe, Da Yuer, Zheng Tuoniang and other girls were taking turns to look through several confessions sent by Song Ye.
After the girls finished reading it, Hai Lanzhu asked, "Song Ye, are the statements of these confessions true?"
Song Ye replied respectfully: "Reply to the wife, it is indeed true. Today, the villain was originally following the grandfather to the banquet, but on the way, the grandfather suddenly became interested and wanted to go to our business to take a look.
Unexpectedly, the grandfather saw the problem at first sight. After the grandfather asked, the shopkeeper of the business not only did not apologize, but instead called the guy to beat the grandfather. The grandfather beat them all to the ground in anger. Then the grandfather sent the villain to call the yamen runners of Shuntian Mansion to take all these people away, and let the villain follow them without leaving. Seeing that they admitted their confessions, the villain immediately rushed to present them to his wife after they confessed."
Da Yu'er shouted angrily in a row of tea tables: "If you use inferior products as good as good products, you will still dare to use slaves to deceive your master. What's the use of such a slave? Sister, now that my husband is not here, you have the final say in the mansion, you can make a decision!"
Hai Lanzhu sighed and murmured: "I never expected that he would dare to do such a thing, and it would be useless to trust him so much."
Zheng Tuoni had read the confession in her hand at this time, and she couldn't believe it. All of these confessions pointed to one person without exception, that is, Yang Laishun, the chief manager of the Outer Court of the Duke of Xinguo Mansion and the shopkeeper of the Beijing Branch of the Royal Trading Company of the Ming Dynasty.
If you want to talk about Yang Laishun, he was a servant that Yang Feng bought before he became rich. He and his wife Yang Zhou were from Shanxi and fled to Jinling. In order to survive, they could only sell themselves to the first place and sell themselves to the human teeth. Later, Yang Feng bought them.
Because the couple is diligent and capable, they are honest, they are deeply trusted by Yang Feng. They have always been appointed as the steward of the Duke's Mansion by Yang Feng. Later, they even handed over the business of the Royal Trading Company in the capital to him. Unexpectedly, such a serious corruption incident occurred under their noses.
Hai Lanzhu took a deep breath: "Song Ye, what else did the shopkeeper and the clerk explain?"
Song Ye lowered his head and said, "The shopkeeper also said that in recent years, Yang Laishun not only bought a large amount of land in Jinling, but also bought dozens of shops. The items sold in these shops were all goods from our Royal Trading Company of the Ming Dynasty. As for these goods that were removed, they used other goods of inferior quality to make profits.
Not only that, they also... also..."
"What else do they do..."
A voice sounded at the door, and everyone turned their heads and shouted.
"Husband..."
"Master!"
Yang Feng strode in, sat next to Hai Lanzhu, stared in a deep voice: "Song Ye, continue talking..."
"Here!"
Song Ye continued: "Yang Laishun and his wife not only purchased a large amount of land and shops in Jinling, but also bought a house in the capital, many slaves and maids, and became masters themselves!"
"Bang……"
"Crazy..."
Yang Feng, who was furious, slapped the coffee table with one hand. The coffee table suddenly fell apart, and the teapot cup suddenly fell all over the floor.
Yang Feng couldn't help but slammed and laughed: "Master? I didn't expect that our Yang family would become a master. It seems that I've been too tolerant over the years."
At this time, Yang Feng couldn't help but think of the Dream of the Red Chamber that he had seen. In the Dream of the Red Chamber, the best slave in the Jia family was Lai Ma. Lai Ma had a small stool sitting in front of Jia Mu. Wang Xifeng and other young masters had to stand when they saw her.
Lai Ma Ma has two sons. The eldest son Lai Da serves as the chief supervisor in Rongguo Mansion, and the second son Lai Sheng serves as the chief supervisor in Ningguo Mansion. Both wives are capable generals under the masters. Jia Qiang is known as the great-grandson of the Ningguo Mansion. When she sees Lai Da, she has to respectfully call him Grandpa Lai.
Yuanchun returned to the province, and the person in charge of the construction project of the Grand View Garden was Lai Da. Finance, personnel, and supervisors were all responsible for Lai Da, and he was deeply trusted by his master. Wang Xifeng was in charge of Qin Keqing's funeral, and Lai's second wife was an assistant, who was in charge of personnel, checked the population, and the successors came to the mansion to listen to the matter.
It can be said that the Lai family can be at least half the leader in terms of human rights or financial power, so that the two brothers of the Lai family almost emptied the Jia family. The reason why the Jia family collapsed so quickly was that the Lai brothers made great contributions.
Yang Feng remembered that when he first saw Dream of Red Mansions, he couldn't believe his eyes. These are the four great classics that were named as treasures of China? No third-rate writer in Qidian would write such plots.
Later, after reading it again, Yang Feng realized that the reason why Jia Mu was so arrogant was because of selfishness and to consolidate her authority.
She regarded Lai Mama as her spokesperson. If you are disrespectful to the Lai family, it means disrespecting me. This is why such a strange phenomenon occurred. Whether it is Jia Zheng, Jia She or Jia Zhen, the legitimate sons in the Jia family must be polite when they see Lai Mama. This is why the eldest grandson of the Jia family respectfully calls Grandpa Lai when they see their slaves. If Jia Mu's husband Jia Daishan resurrected and saw that his grandson actually called a slave as his grandfather, he would probably have to be so angry that he would die again.
So in Yang Feng's opinion, if you want to select the stupidest and stupid person in the Jia family, it is definitely not Jia Mu. She and the fools in the Jia family worked together to push the Jia family into the abyss.
Yang Feng remembered that he had ridiculed Jia Mu's stupidity at that time, and never thought that such a thing would happen to him.
Seeing Yang Feng's face turned pale and afraid that he would be anxious, Hai Lanzhu grabbed his hand and comforted him: "The great Genghis Khan once taught his people that crazy horses are prone to miss, and panic people are prone to trouble.
Since things have happened, getting angry cannot solve any problem. You might as well drink a cup of hot tea calmly and think about it before making a decision.”
After saying that, she personally handed Yang Feng a cup of hot tea.
Yang Feng took the teacup, took a sip of hot tea, sat on the chair and closed his eyes to rest. After a while, he opened his eyes, held Hai Lanzhu's hand and smiled, "It's still the old saying that a good wife and man in the family will not suffer any misfortune. By the way, Song Ye, is Yang Laishun in the mansion now?"
"When you say to your grandfather, Yang Laishun usually stays in his own home, and he will come over if he has something to do."
Yang Feng smiled and said, "Yes, isn't it good to be a master at a qualified family? What's the point of being a slave in the mansion? Ladies, are you interested in going to see the world with me?"
"Where to see the world?" Hai Lanzhu said puzzled.
"Of course I'm going to see our Uncle Yang!" Yang Feng replied with a smile, but his eyes were full of sharpness.
