Chapter 59 Charter

Wei's house.

Wei Danbai has now become an ant on a hot pot.

The caravan was robbed, and the Wei family suffered heavy losses, but what was even worse was that the sale of contraband was about to be revealed.

Thinking of this, Wei Danbo couldn't help regretting that he shouldn't listen to that young spiritual master's instigation to sell some purple berries. Although the profit of this thing is great, the risk is also great. Now the whole Wei family is afraid that they will be buried in his own mistake.

Thinking of this, Wei Danbo couldn't help but hugged his chest and beat his head, feeling extremely annoyed.

But no matter how much he regretted it, it had already happened. In the past few days, he felt that the atmosphere in the Canglong Mansion was obviously different, and it seemed that everyone looked at him differently.

Whether it is a psychological effect or a fact, Wei Danbai doesn't know.

He is now like a prisoner awaiting execution, looking forward to the day of judgment - sooner or later word will spread about the purple berries.

However, he never thought that when this day came, those guys would be in charge of the trial.

Guardian Hall.

Wei Danbai looked at Gu Liangde who was sitting next to him, and beside the old man was a group of other juniors from the Gu family. They looked at themselves with disdain, arrogance, and gloating, as if they were looking at a dead person.

Forcing himself to calm down, Wei Danbai used the lid of the teacup to push the tea leaves on the water, and said in a calm voice as much as possible: "It seems that the ancient patriarch has recovered, and he can come out for a walk. It's really congratulations. Come to the door today , but plan to fulfill the sale and purchase agreement made nine months ago?"

Gu Liangde said with a smile: "Brother Wei has no problem wanting a casino, but I don't know if he can still get the money now. I heard that you just lost a large amount of goods a few days ago, and the amount is not small. .”

Wei Danbai's hand trembled suddenly, some of the water in the teacup spilled out, and it was splashing on his legs.

Seeing this, a young man from the Wei family sneered, "Why did Patriarch Wei's hands tremble? It's just some goods, so he can't afford to be so nervous, right?"

Another young man from the Wei family immediately asked: "Could it be that there is something shady in those goods?"

Another human said: "How is it possible? The Wei family is a law-abiding person who does business honestly, so how can there be contraband?"

Hearing the word forbidden,

Wei Danbai's face turned pale immediately.

He didn't speak, but people from the Gu family didn't intend to let him go. Someone already said, "Actually, it doesn't matter if there are forbidden items. Anyway, isn't the young master of the Wei family, Tian Chong, still doing the true biography on Guanri Peak? With him, Any problem can be solved."

"That's right, with the true inheritance of Guanri Peak, small things like selling some purple berries are nothing. If you want to come to the Wei family, you don't have to worry about it. If it's my ancient family, even if the whole family is destroyed."

"That's hard to say. I heard that Master Yan, the master of Guanri Peak, has always enforced the law very strictly. If he knew that his disciple's family had done such a thing, he might not cover it up. Maybe he would even join this disciple in a fit of anger. Maybe it will be opened."

"It's possible. I heard that Master Yan has been dissatisfied with this disciple for a long time, and has always wanted to find a chance to let him go."

A group of ancient family members laughed wildly.

"Bastard!" Wei Danbai slapped the table angrily, and was about to call for people to drive them away, but Gu Liangde waved his hand, stopped the laughter of the group, and said to Wei Danbai: "My nephews are young Patriarch Wei, please don't blame me for being arrogant and rude. However, Patriarch Wei may not be able to hide the purple berry matter. This matter has been spread in the streets and alleys, and everyone knows it. I'm afraid it won't be long. From Xiyue Sect People from the government and the government will come to question the Wei family."

Wei Danbai took a deep breath: "My second son, Tianchong, is the true biography of Xiyue after all. Although the purple berry incident is prohibited, it is not a major matter of cooperating with the enemy and betraying the country. At best, it is a small punishment, but it will not ruin the family... "

"It is true that people do not have to perish, but families are bound to be destroyed." Gu Liangde already said: "Everyone knows how this kind of thing will be punished, and Patriarch Wei doesn't have to force it. To be honest, this old man is here, isn't it In order to trouble the Wei family, I just want to tell the head of the Wei family that at this very moment, the Wei family should make some preparations for the future."

"The back road?" Wei Danbo stared at Gu Liangde.

"That's right, the way out!" Gu Liangde replied seriously: "After this incident, most of the Wei family's property will be confiscated, and none of those shops will survive. Instead of making it cheaper for the government and... Why don’t you sell them first and store them in gold and silver, so that you can save some money for yourself. My ancient family is willing to pay a good price for these shops.”

Speaking of which, Gu Liangde has handed over a piece of paper.

Wei Danbai took it over and took a look, and actually pointed out the Wei family property to be taken over.

The more he looked, the more frightened he became, and the anger in his heart became more intense: "Sixteen restaurants, four goods stores, fifteen cloth stores, eleven inns, three medicine stores, eighteen tailor-made clothing stores, and four food stores. shop, and fourteen other shops, and you only pay 20,000 taels of silver in total? This is simply too deceitful! One shop in my Wei family can sell for this price!"

"It's not bad to be willing to give you a shop." A young man from the Gu family said coldly: "If you sell it now, you can still sell some money. When the people from the government come, it will be worthless. That's right. I forgot to tell you that the government already knew about this matter. They didn't come now because my Gu family asked them to give them some time. If you refuse, then forget it. We will go back and report to the government and ask them to send someone to arrest them That's right."

Wei Danbai's whole heart turned cold when he heard it.

At this moment, a clear voice came from outside: "I really want to see, who wants to report to the police to arrest my Wei family?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone froze at the same time and looked back together.

Wei Danbai was startled for a moment, then came to his senses, and cried out: "Ma'am!"

A group of people walked in from the outside. The leader was a middle-aged woman, wearing a big red robe with hairpin flowers, tied with a pair of phoenixes and pearls in a bun, and a jade step rock in her hair. Just like that, she walked over step by step. It was Zheng Shufeng.

Behind her were Shi Meng and other servants of the Wei Mansion.

Seeing Zheng Shufeng's sudden appearance, Gu Liangde was also obviously taken aback, but he still cupped his hands at Zheng Shufeng: "It turns out that Mrs. Wei is back, I don't know if the hall is safe."

Zheng Shufeng ignored him and went straight to her husband. Wei Danbai looked at his wife with tears in his eyes, Zheng Shufeng said in a low voice: "Don't panic, you go aside, I will handle this matter myself."

It was like a drowning man grasping at straws, seeing his trusted wife come back, Wei Danbai immediately gave up the central position, completely unaware of what this move represented.

At this very moment, the chair itself has lost much of its appeal.

Zheng Shufeng sat down, then looked at Gu Liangde and said coldly: "20,000 taels of silver to buy more than 80 shops in my Wei family... What a big appetite! I thought that the old man of the Gu family was an old poisonous snake, but now Knowing that it is a carrion vulture, a greedy vicious dog!"

"What did the stinky woman say?" A group of young people from the Gu family shouted angrily.

A kid from the Gu family even said: "Smelly woman, the old man who is not guarding your house is not dead, but rushes back to die. Don't think that it is great to have Wei Tianchong here. After this incident, his true identity will definitely be lost. Even Whether you can stay in the Xiyue faction is a problem. At that time, just spend some money to solve this person, and your Wei family will be finished!"

Zheng Shufeng raised his eyebrows: "A group of crazy things, do you really think that with the purple berry matter, my Wei family can be killed? Today I will show you the methods of my Wei family. Dreaming!"

Following her drink, Shi Meng stepped forward and took out something, but it was a document.

Shi Meng pointed the document to the Gu family, and said loudly: "See it clearly, this is a document from the Xiyue Sect, and it specially gives me the right to manage purple berries in the Wei family!"

"What?" Gu Liangde's face changed greatly upon hearing this.

A group of disciples of the Gu Family had surrounded them one after another, and seeing that it really said that the Wei family can sell thousands of catties of purple berries every year, they should report directly to the local government and Xiyue Hall as soon as they entered or exited.

Shi Meng sneered triumphantly and said: "See it clearly, it says in black and white that our Wei family franchises! So what about selling purple berries, that's my Wei family's privilege!"

"No...no!" Gu Liangde trembled all over, pointing at the document and shouting: "This is fake!"

"Fart your mother!" Shi Meng kicked Gu Liangde's body, kicking the old man up into the air, then pointed to the document and said: "Open your dog eyes and see clearly, there is a fairy magic on it Fayin, who dares to be a fake?"

A disciple of the Gu family said harshly: "Okay, you guys are capable, and you were able to win the special sale of purple berries. But even if you got it, it's a matter of now, and it's still a crime to sell it before! I don't believe that you have a license before that." , if so, why sneak around?"

"Then you report it." Shi Meng sneered, pointing to the document and said: "But I remind you to read the words on it clearly before submitting the report. It's all legal!"

Looking at the words on it, a group of Gu family disciples were immediately dumbfounded.

Under such circumstances, no matter how thick-skinned they were, they dared not stay any longer. Gu Liangde immediately turned his face away, and said with a smile: "Actually, I am an old man, and I really want to help the Wei family. If the Wei family can have this fruit, Really gratifying to congratulate, this old man wishes..."

"Get out!" Zheng Shufeng spat out these cold words.

She didn't want to hear even a word from the other party.

A group of servants rushed up like wolves and tigers, driving the Gu family out of the gate one after another.

But everyone knows that the good times of the Gu family will not last long.

Seeing the turmoil pass, Wei Danbai's heart was also relieved, his eyes blurred for a moment, and he sat down on the ground.

He looked at his wife and said with a smile: "In the end, you have the ability."

Zheng Shufeng shook his head: "Fool, I don't know how many families fight for the purple berry franchise every year. How can I get it?"

"Who is that?" Wei Danbo looked at his wife in surprise.

Zheng Shufeng looked at her husband sympathetically: "What do you think?"

Wei Danbo's heart was shocked, and a name he didn't want to think of but couldn't help but came to mind.

The waiter next to him said: "In order to obtain this concession in the shortest possible time, Tang Jie contacted all the classmates who were involved in the Shimen incident, and made another move. Back then, everyone spent a lot of spiritual money on the matter of the Shimen sect, and they also met many friends. Friends. They heard that it was Tang Jie’s business, and many of them were willing to help. That’s it, they walked around, and finally got it done. For this, Tang Jie also spent another 100,000 spiritual coins, and went there in person I asked Xie Yuan for help. Otherwise, the Patriarch thought, who would have such great ability to solve this matter quickly? Neither I nor the young master actually lost face. But Tang Jie also said that he could help for a while, but In the end, we will not be able to help for the rest of our lives. The Wei family needs a wiser person to lead them, so as to prevent such future troubles."

Wei Danbai was stunned.

After a while, he finally said, "I understand."

He stood up and bowed to Zheng Shufeng: "From today onwards, you are the head of the Wei family. The Wei family is currently experiencing troubled times, and we are anxiously waiting for Madam to regain their reputation. I believe that under the leadership of Madam, there is also the support of Immortal Tang." Next, my Wei family will be able to recreate its glory!"
