Li Fangying cried loudly, "My brother is just asking you to save my brother! After reading my cousin's letter, my brother knew that this matter was serious! No matter how stupid my brother is, I don't dare to ask you to save him! Besides, he
What an onion!"
"My younger brother is just asking you to save my younger brother! Don't let this matter involve my younger brother!"
Li Jinglong immediately turned around and looked at his brother, "What do you mean?"
He understood that his younger brother came to beg him just to save himself and get him out of this muddy water. It was not because of his background, to save his cousin, or to save the Wang family of maritime merchants who were beyond his reach.
If it was just like this, helping his brother to excuse himself, it would not be impossible to handle the matter.
I just didn’t expect that his humble concubine brother would actually make such a decision!
Li Jinglong sat down again and frowned deeply.
"Keep you safe? I'm afraid that your cousin will bite you out when the time comes!" Li Jinglong snorted, "When the time comes, your name will be added to the booklet given to the Emperor, how can I protect you?
?”
"Brother, don't you call him brother-in-law with He Guangyi?" Li Fangying said hurriedly, "Aren't the chief envoys of Z area all your friends? As long as you tell them there, it won't matter if you have a younger brother.
Is it just a word from them?"
"You treat favors so easily?" Li Jinglong said angrily.
Li Fangying suddenly wiped away her tears, approached Li Jinglong and whispered, "Brother, I definitely can't let you take on this favor!" She said, a little quieter, "My brother has received more than 100,000 yuan from dry stocks in the past few years.
.Moreover, my younger brother’s cousin wrote to my younger brother to help him smooth out the relationship, and he also sent two hundred thousand..."
"Hiss!" Li Jinglong was stroking his beard, and when his hand shook, he almost pulled his beard off, "It's quite a lot!"
"Also, my younger brother's cousin's family has more than 300,000 shady money stored in the capital's bank over the years. My younger brother's maid cousin has prepared for the worst, and he is a smart man!"
Li Fangying continued, "He knows that he probably won't be able to escape. If his younger brother is also trapped in it, his family's descendants will have no hope at all. Therefore, when sending a letter to his younger brother, he will also bring the money receipts.
It’s delivered!”
He said and smiled again, "With so much money added up, can my brother clear it out?"
Li Jinglong looked at this younger brother calmly, but his heart was spinning a thousand times.
"This kid is so damn bad!"
He came to beg him to clear himself from the maritime trader and his cousin, but his real purpose was to take advantage of this to eat up his cousin.
The money he said he took out is definitely only a small part of it. His cousin is probably a fifth-grade doctor in Ningbo Customs. He has been in office for more than ten years and has collected a lot of money.
.Even if it’s 200,000 a year, it’s more than 2 million.
The officials below have learned very well over the years. After being greedy, they will not leave money at home. They will always find a suitable place to hide it. Even if something happens in the future, they will have a back-up plan.
"To leave himself alone, he wants to kill his adopted cousin! After his cousin dies, the money will fall into his pocket without anyone noticing!"
"Of course, if he didn't support him with the money, he wouldn't be able to afford it. That's why he just said, take out hundreds of thousands!"
Seeing Li Jinglong deep in thought, Li Fangying continued, "Brother, Jin Yiwei Commander He Guangyi and Chief Secretary Tie Xuan are all under your control. As long as they..."
"You think you have a long life?" Li Jinglong rolled his eyes at him, "Who dares to accept those two people? Who dares to give them away? This is a case decided by Long Live Lord Chrysostom!"
"Brother!" Li Fangying said again, "You have respect with Long Live Lord, you must protect your brother!"
"Wait a minute! Are you saying that your cousin hasn't been visited by the Jin Yiwei yet?" Li Jinglong suddenly thought of something and asked.
"My brother just received the letter. The person who reported it said that people have arrested him one after another, but they haven't caught him yet!" Li Fangying said.
Li Jinglong suddenly smiled and understood.
"Why are you laughing?" Li Fangying was puzzled.
"You are still young! It's no wonder why you haven't really entered officialdom!" Li Jinglong said with a smile.
Isn’t it obvious why the Customs Officer hasn’t been arrested yet?
He Guangyi and Tie Xuan must have known about the relationship between the man and Duke Cao's government, so they didn't take action for the time being, just waiting for the reaction of Duke Cao's government.
This is equivalent to giving Li Jinglong a lot of face and a lot of favor invisibly.
"Yeah!" Li Jinglong pondered for a long time.
He stood up and walked outside the door, "Butler, let Mr. Li come here!"
"Brother?" Li Fangying was anxious, and she was even more anxious when she saw old man Li Jinglong was there.
"Are you panicking?" Li Jinglong suddenly glared and cursed, "Don't be afraid, your brother will handle everything!"
Not long after, Li Laowai came in a hurry.
Li Jinglong didn't wait for him to come in. He walked outside the courtyard first and pulled Mr. Li to the corner.
"master?"
"You have something to do!" Li Jinglong murmured in a low voice, "Go to Ningbo and find He Guangyi, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, and Tie Xuan, the chief envoy of Z, you know both of them!"
"Little acquaintance!" Li Laowai nodded.
"Just tell them directly that Li appreciates their love!" Li Jinglong continued in a low voice, "As long as it involves national laws, please handle them in an official manner! In the past few years, Duke Cao has abided by the law and is upright and not afraid of shadows!"
Although Li Laowai didn't know what was going on, he still nodded and said, "I remember it, little man!"
"Remember, let them do business!" Li Jinglong explained again.
"The villain is leaving now!" Li Laowai said.
"Well, go to the horse racing stable to pick three good horses. There will be people resting and stopping all the way. Bring our family badges!" After saying that, Li Jinglong thought about it, "Go to the butler and ask him to give you the bonus from the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion."
Quick waist card, take the post road."
"Hey, little man, go now!" Mr. Li tilted his head and left without looking back.
Li Jinglong looked at his back and smiled, then walked towards the hall again with his hands behind his back.
"You eat your cousin?"
"Then I'll eat you!"
"But we are all compatriots, so I just want to save your life!"
Li Jinglong thought to himself.
"Brother!" Seeing Li Jinglong come in, Li Fangying came up to greet him, "You...?"
"Go back!" Li Jinglong sat down with a solemn look on his face, "I'm going to send people there. They are my brothers after all. They want to protect you! There's only so much that the elder brother can do!"
"Brother!" Li Fangying was moved in her heart, "I..."
"Hey! Remember, money is something external to the body." Li Jinglong continued, "You have your destiny, so don't be strong on anything. In the future, don't get involved in this kind of thing, and be careful about everything!"
"Brother, please remember your elder brother's teachings!"
"Don't be too happy about this matter!" Li Jinglong said again, "I sent someone to tell me, but it's up to them whether they give me this face! If they have already won the discount, it happens that they have already taken advantage of it at this time.
If someone is arrested, then this matter will be troublesome!"
Suddenly, Li Fangying's expression changed drastically.
"You go back first! There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain!" Li Jinglong also looked worried, "Anyway, your business is my eldest brother's business!"
"Brother!" Li Fangying was so moved that she choked with sobs, "I can't let you bear all this favor. I'll have someone bring the tickets later!"
"Which one do I lack?" Li Jinglong suddenly became furious, "Brother, what do you mean by this? If you dare to send it, I won't care about it!"
"Brother!" Li Fangying was extremely moved.
~~~
Li Fangying left, and Li Jinglong sat in the hall and meditated.
"If this matter really comes to the attention of Lord Long Live, we can't ask for help from Lord Long Live!"
"You have to go and beg the old man!"
"The concubine is also his nephew's son!"
He was making plans in his house, but he didn't know that a storm had arrived silently.
