Chapter 566 Hit him to death in the hall of the government office
Shopkeeper Liu is obviously not the only one who holds this idea.
What kind of family is the Han family? Not to mention the glory of their ancestors, but now, the eldest son of Mr. Han is a second-rank official in the imperial court.
If you go back to your hometown, not to mention the prefect, even the Prince Rui's Mansion will receive you politely.
Shopkeeper Liu is just a small businessman who does business. His arms can't twist his thighs. If he insists on fighting with others, what will happen in the end?
So as Shopkeeper Liu walked to the government office, all he heard were sighs and sympathy.
Although everyone sympathized with him, they could not help him, and even vaguely felt that he was overestimating his abilities.
If you had a softer attitude at the beginning, convinced Mr. Han, and said a few nice words, he would be able to compensate you if he slipped something between his fingers.
If I insist on quarreling with others, I will end up making trouble with the government.
If you make people too embarrassed to come to Taiwan, they will naturally not let you go.
Shopkeeper Liu became more and more desperate along the way, and even had some extreme thoughts faintly rising in his heart.
If even the prefect could not make decisions for the people, he would not go home today and would just crash to death in the lobby of the government office.
With this thought in mind, Shopkeeper Liu had a tragic look in his eyes when he walked into the lobby of the government office.
Mr. Han arrived early today, uncharacteristically, and stood aside with his hands folded, waiting for the meeting to begin.
Shopkeeper Liu didn't even look at him, he walked straight to where he was supposed to stand and stood still.
Shen Zhonglei was sorting out his official uniform at the back of the hall, and he was a little nervous at the same time.
There were indeed quite a few people who saw Mr. Han spitting in the silk and satin shop that day, not only the customers going shopping, but also some people watching the excitement.
However, he sent people to contact him separately, but no one was willing to come forward to testify.
After all, it's just a matter of talking in private, but if he testifies in court, wouldn't it be tantamount to openly opposing the Han family.
Although the Han family has a pretty good reputation in Wuchang Mansion and is not a domineering family, after all, Han Changran's identity is there to suppress it.
If Mr. Han holds a grudge, how can they, a small family like them, compete with the Han family?
Today, Mr. Han suddenly asked to be promoted to court. Shen Zhonglei didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, so he felt naturally uneasy.
In particular, almost everyone in Wuchang Prefecture is paying attention to this case now. You can hear people talking about it when you walk on the street. If it is not handled well, the reputation and prestige of the prefect who has just taken office will be ruined among the people.
It's going to be a big discount.
Although he was reluctant in every way, when the time came, Shen Zhonglei still had to bite the bullet and walk up to the hall.
As soon as Shen Zhonglei sat down in the hall, Mr. Han, who was standing below, took the lead and said: "Sir Shen, I was indeed inappropriate in the previous incident at Baolin Silk and Satin Shop, but this was definitely not my intention."
As soon as this statement came out, there was an uproar in the hall.
Although these words were relatively reserved, Mr. Han actually admitted that he was inappropriate?
This is as rare as the sun rising in the west.
Shopkeeper Liu on the side also turned to look at Mr. Han in surprise, but his heart was full of suspicion, feeling that he would not be able to give in so easily.
Shen Zhonglei, who was sitting on top, was also shocked. He subconsciously followed Mr. Han's words and asked, "Then what happened that day?"
"I heard from a servant that day that a batch of new materials recently purchased by Baolin Silk and Satin Factory were very good to sell. I went to check it out because I wanted to buy some materials for my grandson to make new clothes for the New Year."
Mr. Han threw the pot on Han Guangtao's head without any burden, and continued, regardless of whether others believed it or not: "But during that time, I did have a lot of saliva, and it would easily spit out when I spoke, and it did stain the silk shop.
some ingredients.
"Actually, I felt very guilty when I found out at the time, but shopkeeper Liu was too hasty and told me that I was deliberately causing trouble because of his business.
"The conscience of heaven and earth, my old Hantou has been in Wuchang Mansion for so many years, how have I ever done such a thing?"
When he said this, there were quite a few echoes in the hall.
Although Mr. Han has a bad temper and loves to put on airs, but in good conscience, the Han family has never done anything evil to bully the market in recent years.
Of course, if they really did it, Prince Rui's Palace wouldn't be able to just sit idly by and watch.
When Mr. Han heard someone in the hall responding to him, he turned around and expressed his gratitude to the outside.
He turned back and continued: "After I soiled the material of the Satin Factory, I didn't say I wouldn't compensate, but I am already a very old man, and being accused like this by shopkeeper Liu in public, I can't swallow it!"
Shopkeeper Liu seemed to want to refute something when he heard this, but Mr. Han waved his hand to stop him: "Wait until I finish speaking."
When Shen Zhonglei saw that the situation in the hall had been completely controlled by Mr. Han, he was helpless and just waited to hear what he was going to say next.
"But as the saying goes, misfortune lies where blessings depend, and misfortune lies behind. I never expected that it was precisely because shopkeeper Liu had a dispute with me in the street that not only did Mr. Shen intervene in the matter, but he even gave me
Attracted a noble man."
"Noble?" Shen Zhonglei was getting more and more confused now.
"Isn't that right!" Mr. Han said, "That day when we were arguing in the street, Mrs. Tong saw us passing by."
"Mrs. Tong is in Wuchang Mansion?" Shen Zhonglei did not expect that the noble person Mr. Han mentioned was actually Mrs. Tong.
"Why, Mr. Shen also knows Mrs. Tong?" Mr. Han was also a little surprised.
"Of course, I originally worked in Yongzhou Prefecture, and Lady Tong's medical clinic is in the city."
"This is better." Mr. Han said, "Then Master Shen should know Madam Tong's medical skills, right?"
Shen Zhonglei nodded and praised: "It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a hanging pot that helps the world and brings youth back to life!"
"Exactly!" Mr. Han said excitedly when he heard this, "Ms. Tong saw me arguing with Shopkeeper Liu on the street that day, and found out that I was ill, so she contacted me.
"I'm ashamed to say that at first I thought she was some kind of scammer and didn't believe her. Later, someone vouched for her, so I half-believed her and asked her to help me diagnose my pulse and prescribe a prescription.
“I never expected that the medicine really cured the disease. I only took the medicine for three days and my problem of spitting was cured!
"Master Shen, I have said so much standing here today, have you ever seen me spray or spit?"
No one noticed it before, but when Mr. Han came out, everyone suddenly realized it.
Isn't it? When the class was held last time, Mr. Han stood here talking like a clepsydra, and his saliva wet the ground in front of him.
He said so much today, but he was still dry and comfortable in front of him.
Mr. Han listened to everyone whispering in surprise, and turned around happily and said: "Shopkeeper Liu, it turns out that the reason why I accidentally soiled your material before was because I was sick, not because I did it intentionally.
"Should you apologize to me for this matter?"
Shopkeeper Liu always felt that Mr. Han was just shirking responsibility. He was so dizzy that he couldn't discern the too implicit submissiveness in his words. After hearing this sentence in the end, he collapsed.
You don't want me to apologize if you don't pay?
Shopkeeper Liu was agitated for a moment, filled with grief and anger. He turned around and rushed towards the pillar on the side...
