    Chapter 1416: Showing off ones power


    Iron is a military resource and has always been controlled by the imperial court. If a merchant wants to do pig iron business, he must go to the Yamen to report.


    The Su family reported it, but the reported quantity was wrong. It was only 340 kilograms, but the pig iron found was more than 1,300 kilograms, which was a thousand kilograms more!


    Smuggling one thousand kilograms of pig iron, ording to criminalw, is enough to raid the Su family three times.


    The head of the guard team almost went crazy with joy. He didn''t expect to find evidence of the Su family''s crimes. He hurriedly had the warehouse sealed and sent a yamen servant back to the government office to report the news. Then he took the other yamen servants and went straight to the Su family.


    Mr. Su was at home worrying about whether he should give money to Lin Su and others to expiate their sins. When he saw the squad leader and the others rushed in, he hurriedly asked: "Why did the squad leadere suddenly? Could it be that the Lin family has already given the money to exonerate the sin?" Can my brother, my son, my mother and my sone out?"


    Wei Ban''s headughed: "Father Su, your news is too unpretentious. Your good son -in w Lin Youfu was caught. Now we are here to catch your Su family, and hurry up with us!"


    "What do you mean?" Mr. Su couldn''t understand it more and more. Could it be: "Lin Youfumitted other serious crimes, and he even ordered the Su family to ransack the house?"


    Tuk-tuk-tuk!


    Mr. Su was so angry that he poked the ground with his crutch and cursed: "Well, Lin Youfu, you don''t see it, you are a beast who does many evil things!"


    Then he hurriedly said to the head of the guard team: "Head of the guard team, the Su family is a good family and does not bother to associate with the Lin family. I have severed ties with the Lin family and removed the Lin Su family from the n. The Su family has no rtionship with the Lin family at all." , Please ask the head guard to take a closer look!"


    "Obviously?" The guard squad leader almost diedughing: "Mr. Su, you are really good at clearing up the rtionship. It''s a pity that the arrest of your family today has nothing to do with the Lin family. The things your familymitted are not small. Do you know who is implicating whom?"


    "What do you mean?" Mr. Su was shocked: "My Su family''s business has been exposed to the public. All the children of the Su family are good, and no one has done anything wrong!"


    Wei Ban head: "You said that no one wouldmit a criminal? You know that there are more than a thousand pounds of raw iron hidden under the warehouse floor of your Su family.


    Then he said: "Don''t you see, your Su family is so bold, have you forgotten about the Tong family? Do you think Ming Shaoqing killed too few of the Tong family, and your Su family wants to make up for it?"


    Mr. Su''s face turned pale when he heard this, and he almost fainted: "What, there is pig iron in the warehouse at Su''s wharf?!"


    The Su family has a business of making iron bars, but they only help the officials and wealthy families who can sell iron to transport iron bars. They dare not sell it privately.


    Its unfair, its unfair, the Su family didnt hide any pig iron secretly! Mr. Su cried out in tears.


    The head of the guard team didn''t care, and directly asked the yamen servant to tie up the person: "Mr. Su, don''t cry out. They''ve found pig iron from your warehouse. It''s useless even if you shout at the yamen. Come with us to the yamen."


    Dozens of government officials acted quickly and quickly **** the men in Mr. Su''s family.


    But Su Da was not there.


    "Where''s Su Da?" asked the leader of the Wei squad: "He is the eldest grandson of the Su family. He is more important than the other grandsons of the Su family. He must be found."


    But Su Da seemed to have disappeared from the world. The government officials searched the Su family''s house, vige, shop, and other courtyards, but Su Da was nowhere to be found.


    Oh, needless to say, he must have fled out of fear of crime. Magistrate Shi immediately had the city gates of Linhe Prefecture closed, the pier across the river sealed, and he personally led people to search the city and the pier.


    After searching for a day and a night, we finally found Su Da dressed as a fisherman on a fishing boat.


    Su Da was escorted back to the government office. Magistrate Shi immediately went to court for interrogation. After the torture, Su Da couldn''t bear it anymore and he tortured them all.


    The pig iron in the Su family warehouse was indeed hidden by him. Someone told him that the world is too chaotic now, and the wealthy families in Jiangnan are in urgent need of pig iron to make weapons for self-defense. After the Tong family was ransacked, a batch of pig iron was left behind. As long as he was brave enough to help sell it secretly to Jiangnan, he could earn tens of thousands of taels of silver.


    "The man said that all the Tong family members are dead, Ming Shaoqing has also returned to the capital, and the Tong family''s matter has been settled. The Tong family''s case has just been concluded, and now it is the time when the government''s control over iron blocks is at its peak. When you are ck, take advantage of this opportunity to quickly sell the pig iron and you will be rich."


    Su Da said everything, and finally cried: "Themon people have been deceived by others, and I will never dare to do it again. I beg you to spare themon people."


    After saying that, he kowtowed with bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang.


    Magistrate Shi sneered and said, "Su Da, don''t tell me about the things youmitted. Even Ming Shaoqing can''t help you. It''s useless to ask for mercy."


    Then he said: "You only said that you were bewitched, but who is the person who bewitched you? Could it be that you are afraid of death and deliberately say that you are the mastermind to get away with it?"


    "No, themon people didn''t lie. Please don''t kill me, magistrate!" Su Da thought of the Tong family''s whole family being beheaded. He was scared to death and kept begging for mercy.


    Mr. Su was so angry that he almost died on the spot. As he was being escorted to kneel in the courtroom, he yelled at Su: "Stop talking such nonsense, tell me the name of the person who gave you the pig iron and asked you to resell it. Where is he now?" !


    That person is the key to the Su family''s crime and meritorious service. Otherwise, all the faults will be ced on Su Da, and the Su family''s fate will be the same as the Tong family''s.


    After Su Da heard this, he quickly shut up and calmed down. After thinking about it for a moment, he gave him a name and an address.


    Magistrate Shi immediately sent someone to search for it, but the ce was a Taoist temple and there was no one Su Da said inside. After searching, no pig iron was found.


    The people who came back told Magistrate Shi what they found out. Magistrate Shi was so angry that he had Su Da beaten up.


    However, Magistrate Shi felt that Su Da was not lying. The person behind it did exist, but he had already run away, so they missed the opportunity.


    There is no other way but to me everything on Su Da. Su Da will take the me, and the whole Su family will be ruined.


    Lin Guangtong, Lin Sushi, and Lin Yueyun heard the news in prison, and they all couldn''t bear the shock and fainted.


    Only Aunt Feng was so happy that she went crazy. Unexpectedly, she just made a few nonsense words, and the government office would be able to investigate a major case such as the Su family''s private sale of pig iron.


    She has done meritorious deeds, she has done meritorious deeds!


    "I have made a meritorious service, I want to see the prefect, I want to get out!" Aunt Feng shouted from the prison, but unfortunately she shouted until her voice broke and she could not see the prefect Shi.


    It was only after she hit the wall and threatened her that she got a reply from Magistrate Shi.


    The head of the guard team came to the prison and told Aunt Feng: "The prefect said that one of the children among those children is a daughter of an official family. You and your brothers are guilty of selling official rtives. Even if you have meritorious services, you will not be exempted from the crime. Be honest. Just wait and wait until February 2 next year to be beheaded."


    The Chinese New Year ising soon. No beheading will be done before the Chinese New Year or in the first month of the year. All beheadings will be postponed until after the dragon raises its head on the second day of February.


    Look, the government is so kind.
