Because the business of the people under investigation was concentrated in Tonghua, not a large business, and there was no business in Tonghua County, the information obtained was not very detailed.
The person who was sent out to inquire was just a rough idea.
It can be seen from this that the family surnamed Chen does have power in the local area, but it also shows that their family has not reached the level of 100% control of Tonghua County.
If it was changed to Sanshui County, outsiders would directly inquire about the situation of Zhang Wang's family and Zhuangzi, and would not get any information at all. At the same time, they would be targeted. It would not be easy to leave.
The nine people of Xiaobei started a meeting and expanded the meeting to allow other think tanks in the family to sit in.
Xiaobei first said: "I have a question to ask. Please help me analyze it. Since the Chen family in Tonghua County, Maozhou can cover the sky in the county, why didn't my inspectors find evidence of collusion between government and businessmen from the county government? ."
Beckham asked about the six people in the corner on the left. The six people are basically dressed up. Everyone wears large clothes and a high collar. They cover their hands and neck, and they wear sunglasses on their eyes. , It doesn't matter whether the room is dark or not.
The six are specially selected, and they are the best at conspiracy and tricks. Let them stand in the foreground. They can't do things. Put them in the shadows and they will play a big role.
"Number one, you said." Xiaoyuan called, because the six people didn't like others to call their names directly, so they replaced them with numbers.
One of the six people lowered their heads, with one hand covering the position of their mouth, and said in a low voice: "If I am in charge of the Chen family, I will consider the issue of Datang inspectors. I will not give them direct control. At the same time, I am willing to give money to support the administrative plan of the county officials."
"Anything else?" Beckham asked after waiting for a while, seeing him silent.
"Let me add." Another person wearing sunglasses said: "The reason why the problem cannot be found is that the Chen Jiaxing did not hoard important civilian assets and drive up prices when he was in business. They forced others to submit, instead of directly using force. It can be done with money, and it can be influenced by people around the persecuted."
"In other words, even if someone is bullied by them, but there is no evidence to prove that what they did is not in accordance with my law? Publicity does not commit a crime."
When Beckham became worried, he couldn't find the evidence of the other party's crime. Doesn't he have to use his identity to suppress it
Xiaoyuan came up with an idea: "Follow the other's way and return to the other's body. Once it is determined that they are oppressing others through other means, we will follow them."
"Continue to investigate. I don't believe they will be clean if killed. Let alone them, is my house clean? If it weren't for the powerful brothers and sisters, and the power of the family, it would be considered less than ten times that we were killed.
For example, last month, a baby candy shop in Henan Province was under construction. It was noisy and the surrounding people were not resting well, and the materials were piled up, hurting two people.
Normally, should work be suspended and the person in charge should be sent to the government to be whipped, at least for ten and a half months. How did we do it? With money, the construction site will be carried out as usual, and a sum of money will be given to the injured person, and the matter is over. The government never sent anyone to investigate, and the victim did not intend to hold on to it. "
Xiao Hai speaks frankly about the dark side of her family.
Xiaobei whispered: "After losing a lot of money, the two injured will not be disabled. One is 500 guan. The surrounding neighbors are counted according to the head. No matter how big or small, one is 30 guan. They also gave them a lot of seafood and meat. .
In fact, they didn't say anything, they didn't report to the officials during the quarrel, and the person who was smashed never said anything to be held accountable. We took the initiative to compensate. "
"That's because our name is there, and people are willing to support us. I always feel uncomfortable in doing this. I always feel that I owe them a lot. I have to find a chance to make up for it. Otherwise, it will be difficult to sleep." Xiaohai worked. More rigorous, unwilling to make excuses for myself.
"Yes, right, right, the people are so good, that little money is nothing, staring at the bully and bullying guilty hard, it is absolutely impossible to be kind to my family. Do you still remember my banker in Henan Province was interrupted by someone at the time? No matter how you retaliate, it’s a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye. You won’t pay as much money, and it’s useless to find anyone to intercede.”
Xiaoyuan echoed.
"That's because the elder brothers and sisters act differently, otherwise they would not say things like'You kill me alone, I slaughter your village.' Watch it."
Beckham turned the topic back again.
…
The Tonghua Chen family, who was followed by Xiaobei's nine people, was shrouded in a tense atmosphere at the moment.
The young master who had just returned from the outside was directly called to the study to reprimand him, saying that he shouldn't be still outside at this moment.
Then the whole family negotiated.
The house of the Chen family is in the county seat. The streets in the county seat are two vertical and three horizontal, and there are countless small alleys. On the whole, the county seat is divided into twelve irregular parts, one of which is occupied by the Chen family.
It can no longer be said that the house has been in and out. The whole area has countless houses, layers of yards, small bridges and flowing water, willow green and red, ginkgo sky, rockery and secluded, corridors stop, scattered and mixed.
The Chen family has three rooms. The old man is alive, but no matter what happens, the family affairs are all controlled by the big room.
At this time, all the main members of the three rooms came to the family chamber.
The old man listened, the heads of the three families were in charge of consultations, and each family brought their own sons to follow along. There were three people in Dafang, the head of the family, and two sons. The eldest son was the one who met Beckham outside, and there was also a ten-year-old boy whose eyes were always turning around, looking very clever, less calm.
There are only two people in the second house. In addition to the head of the house, there is also a son who is bigger than the eldest son of Dafang. He has reached the crown this year. He is over 20. Sitting there with a quiet appearance, but his eyes are compelling, which makes people feel right. There are always two thoughts in my mind when watching. One is to ignore him and look hard, what else can you do to me? The other is that I just stared at you. Who wouldn’t look like a pretender, just you
The young master who has been in contact with Xiaobei has the urge to dig out his eyeballs, because if he looks at each other, he lacks confidence, and if he doesn't look at each other, he seems to have a guilty conscience. Obviously his status is the highest in the same generation, but everyone is optimistic about this second room person.
There are also three rooms in the room. There are many people in the three rooms and can give birth. It is also the one that the old man likes the most, and many children and grandchildren can spread the branches and leaves.
There are many sons in the third house, and there are seven in the first house. In addition to the head of the house, there are six people. The eldest son has not yet performed the crown ceremony. Compared with the second house, the eldest son is two years younger, and the remaining five have two long. They are very similar, and there are three more similar in length, naturally twins and triplets.
The twins are thirteen or four years old, similar to the young master of the big room, and they have the same thing, that is, they have blue eye circles and seem to be excessively indulgent. Now they are sitting there with a drowsy look, seeming lack of energy.
The triplets have a silver collar around each neck and emerald green bracelets on their wrists. They are the smallest ones. They are four or five years old at most when they sit and twist their bodies after sitting for a while. They didn't dare to speak out, but they were not idle. There were obviously a lot of snacks and fruits on the table. They had to grab a plate. After being glared at by the adults, they took a few breaths, turned their heads and started fighting with each other again.
This is the situation right now in the meeting hall of the Chen family in Tonghua. There is no woman, and the maid is not there. After the snacks and tea are delivered, they go out, avoiding them far.
"Hou'er, let's start." The old man in the audience said to the eldest son, then closed his eyes and squinted.
The head of Dafang is also named Chen, and his surname is Chen Guanghou. His second and third brothers are named Chen Guangliang and Chen Guangchun, respectively. They belong to the Guangzi generation, and the next generation is the Yaozi generation. For example, his son is named Chen Yaozu, and the son of Erfang is named Chen Yaodong.
If there is a next generation, it is probably a generation of families. But this hope now seems very slim. The Chen Yao clan offends people who should not or cannot afford to offend.
Today's discussions among the clan are related to the people offended by the Chen Yao clan.
"It has been confirmed that when Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan arrive in Yizhou, the war will start at any time. We can't control wars, let alone send soldiers, and even if they don't force them to take money, we don't need active support. ."
Chen Guanghou coughed, his eyes swept across everyone's face, and said slowly.
Except for the old man who was still sleeping, everyone else sat up straight, and even the three youngest children stopped and instantly became good babies.
Chen Guanghou's eyes drooped slightly, and he continued: "The business at home is still to be done, but there is a priority, especially the goods from the west, please stop temporarily."
The people present still didn't say anything, listening quietly, according to the rules of the clan, you are not allowed to interrupt if the long room didn't let you talk. Otherwise, the lighter will be punished, and the severer will be expelled from the family.
"After a sale is stopped, other transactions need to be strengthened. The transaction is not the most important aspect. It is really impossible to stop first. With the savings at home, the support for decades may not necessarily decline."
Chen Guanghou said that when the family business stopped, his face was in pain. He was obviously distressed. He sighed and sighed, "Hey... I was most worried about someone acting indiscriminately outside in the name of my home. I have been provoked in the past. Others, spending money can eliminate disasters. Now it is Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.
If the two of them are busy with war arrangements and have no time to be distracted by others, then their younger siblings are always looking forward to someone picking things up, just like the third family’s Yaohong and Yaowei, who always like to look like ordinary people. Then go to places around Tonghua to provoke secretly, wait for others to take action, and then teach them well.
This is not okay, absolutely not. You are looking for trouble to cause trouble to the family. In Tonghua, I, Chen, will look like the Chen family, and hang out with a group of ground rascals all day. What is it like? "
The head of the third room, Chen Guangchun, sat there with a gloomy face and said nothing. His two sons and the twins couldn't control the trembling of their bodies. The two of them were just mentioned. It's okay to pretend to be ordinary people, and then find opportunities to clean up others. Every time they see the look of regret and fear in the eyes of the cleaned up people, they will get great satisfaction.
Chen Guangchun was silent, but his eyes turned to the eldest son of the eldest eldest Chen Guanghou, the Chen Yao clan who had met Beckham before, cursing inwardly.
My second and third sons were indeed entangled with a group of idle people on the street, but there had never been any major incidents, let alone fatalities.
My two sons are not arrogant, no matter how bad, look at your son, usually go out to find hundreds of people, all of which are money, and bullying men and women, there are still two lives in their hands. A foreigner died in his hands. Even if you, a dad, help wipe your butt, others don’t know. Am I still not sure
The third child was unhappy, and the second child was like a okay person. His son Chen Yaodong still had a compelling look and remained motionless.
"The third child, I have to be optimistic about the people in your family in the future. What I mean is not against your family, but for the entire Chen family. As I said earlier, Zhang Xiaobei and the nine of them, I heard that they went to Wenshan County. The magistrate Wang Chang couldn't keep it.
Wang Chang's life and death have nothing to do with us, I'm afraid that they will clean up Wang Chang and make trouble, and then transfer to our Tonghua County. You remembered it for me, who would dare to provoke them, I directly beat them to death and sent them in front of them to plead. Tell me below, one of the tricks has been shown to me.
Everything in Tonghua County must be stable, and the clan members are not allowed to lower prices if they go outside to buy vegetables. Tell the county magistrate Zhao Jianghao that we paid to build a good school and stuffed the children in the county. Ok! It is also not always possible for us to pay a loss and tell other businessmen in the county to share a share. "
Chen Guanghou finished speaking in a deep voice, waited again, took two sips of tea, and gently knocked the tea bowl on the table, making a jingle, before nodding to the second and third brothers: "Who has anything else to say? ?"
Hearing that the boss told him to speak, Chen Guangliang and Chen Guangchun looked at each other, and then Chen Guangliang said: "Brother, I have no objection to the cessation of the business in the west. After all, I was told that there would be a disaster at home."
"But is the batch of goods that came over ten days ago sold or not? If they are sold, the amount is too large, which easily arouses Zhang Xiaobao's vigilance. Once they start investigating, we don't expect to hide it no matter what. Who can hide it? The intelligence personnel of Wang Zhang's family?"
"At the beginning of the Jiangnan Road, the three big forces moved together, but it was just that Zhang and Wang's intelligence personnel could not find out where the chief figure was hiding in time. It was because there were no clues. If Zhang and Wang's family were not in a hurry, they would finally return. Will find out."
"In the end, Zhang Xiaobao was forced to take action. Everyone knows the result. I'm worried, and I'm worried that it will be checked when it is shipped."
"If we don't ship, we stay in our hands, and the daily consumption of forage and manpower is not a small amount. It is a commodity that has become money and then adds money to it. Between the output and the input, how can the family business bear it?"
When Chen Guangliang finished speaking, he also picked up the tea and drank water. He just said the problem, without mentioning the slightest solution to the problem, and pushed the difficulty to Chen Guanghou.
The scene was silent for a while, and the sound of breathing was almost inaudible.
The atmosphere in the chamber suddenly became more depressing, and the three little guys from the youngest Chen Guangchun's house closed their mouths hard and clenched their little hands into fists nervously.
Chen Guanghou crossed his hands in front of his chest, his two thumbs kept moving around each other, and occasionally stopped to press the two thumbs together.
If so, a full quarter of an hour has passed. When the children felt that their breathing was difficult to smooth, Chen Guanghou made a muffled noise from his nose.
"Tian'er... It's getting hotter and fighting, and there must be people transporting supplies. Our northern area of Jiannan Province may be more prosperous. Pepper and sweet garlic are good food. Vinegar, not only dumplings and steamed buns, tastes good."
Chen Guanghou said something while everyone was waiting.
After speaking, he closed his eyes, and leaned back, shrinking there.
Others were even more puzzled. The little guys couldn't worry about the family. They didn't feel nervous when they heard something. Chen Guanghou's eldest son, Chen Yaozu, looked confused, and the only son of the second room, Chen Yaodong, had his eyes loose.
Chen Guangliang and Chen Guangchun were thinking, and the hall fell silent again.
Everyone thought for a while, but still couldn't figure out what the Patriarch meant, the youngest Chen Guangchun planned to ask.
Chen Guanghou suddenly said: "This matter is easy, I will arrange to solve it, let... Let the Yao clan do it, usually he has done a lot of things, although not perfect, but also stable. Are there any other problems? Go. Don’t forget what I said, people who are optimistic about yourself will cause trouble and the people will not protect you.”
Throwing it down, he got up and walked out, nodded to his father who was still lying on the chair, and said hello.
His two sons hurriedly followed and left together.
"Let's go, let's take Dong'er to work with you, or the third brother, you are free." The second child, Chen Guangliang, gestured to his son, and swayed out with his hands on his back.
The rest of Chen Guangchun's family looked at each other. Chen Guangchun clicked his mouth, raised his hand to buckle the lid of the tea bowl back to the tea bowl, turned his head and said to the old man: "Father, if you are tired, go to the back to rest. The hall is too empty and long. Falling asleep and cold."
"Yeah!" The old man seemed to have just woke up, opened his mouth, yawned, stretched his waist, and looked around: "It's over? Just do what your elder brother said. It doesn't matter if you suffer occasionally, you will have a future when you live. Your elder brother is right. Xiaobei and the others don’t look at the official ranks, they are still children. They won’t take care of the country’s policies, so they have to wander around and make trouble for others."
"Father knows that your eldest brother’s clan is not reassuring. The two boys in your family are really worrying? Go, grab their studies, when will Xiaobei leave, and when will the children be treated? Let it go. It's better to be bored at home than to be dead."
The old man of the Chen family got up when he spoke, shaking his legs twice, and after speaking the last word, he walked to the door, turned around again, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Chen Guangchun stared at the door and shook his head: "The old man is not old, I thought he was confused, alas..."
"Father, do you really want us to study at home? Oh, dad, we go out to make sure that we won't cause trouble, others don't have eyesight, we also hide." Chen Yaohong, the twins, heard a word in his ear just now and begged his father.
Knowing the son is more than his father, Chen Guangchun believes what his son said to hell.
Staring his eyes wide, he reprimanded: "You promise, how many times have you promised that you want to provoke trouble as ordinary people, and finally show your identity to turn things around. The others who win have no temper, and the arrogance of winning."
"Tell you, you can't be arrogant in the surrounding places. Zhang Xiaobei and the others like to pretend to be ordinary people, if you meet them, what will you two win?"
"Father, they can't be unreasonable. If we don't provoke others, we won't succeed?" Chen Yaowei helped.
"Reasonable? You two who are usually unreasonable talk to me now? If you don't mess with them, won't they mess with you? Go to school, go to school."
Chen Guangchun shook his head and walked out. When he met the housekeeper at the door, he ordered: "Tell the family members that no one is allowed to let them out, otherwise the family law will take care of him."
…
"Little son, little lady, there is new news. Just now, the Chen family contacted the county magistrate Zhao Jianghao. Their family paid the money and the county government was in charge. They wanted to build a beautiful school in the county, and the government posted a notice."
While the nine Beckhams were waiting, the one sent out ran back to report.
"Haha, I'm afraid, there is a problem, and there really is a problem. If you don't fix it early, you must fix it at this time, check, and continue to check." Xiaobei said excitedly.
"Yes, it must be clear from the investigation. They will surely not run away. If they offend you, they will be considered dead." The family members also praised and turned around happily to arrange for someone to investigate other issues.
Xiao Yuan was stunned for a while, and said, "Let’s discuss it. In some places, businessmen may not give their children money for school training, or because they don’t pay enough money, it’s inconvenient for the children to eat and live. Cultivate business people’s sense of social responsibility and suffer the children."
"Let someone investigate, see where the merchants don't pay, and find out the root cause." Xiaohai suggested.
