Chapter 222 The Liu family encounters a setback
The head of the Liu family boarded the ship not without purpose, and took the opportunity to have Song Jin''s ship searched.
This time I searched more carefully.
Song Jin knew that what the other party was searching for was not a person, but the missing account book. Only she knew that it was impossible to find these people because the ledger was with her.
The head of the Liu family exchanged a few words with Song Jin.
Song Jin never tired of telling him about Jianning''s specialties and wanted to take the opportunity to make a deal. The Liu family owner was irritated and said a few perfunctory words. When the searcher shook his head to indicate that nothing was found, the Liu family owner felt as if he was being chased by a dog. , and left the ship in a hurry.
"Hey, Master Liu, let''s talk next time."
Song Jin shouted loudly behind the other party.
The warmth seemed as if they were familiar with each other.
It wasn''t until the head of the Liu family left that the smile on her face gradually faded away.
"Master, do you want to keep your schedule tomorrow morning as usual?"
Xing Lun asked softly, bringing Song Jin back from his thoughts.
Song Jin said: "The itinerary remains as usual."
Zhou Wei on the side was not sure and said: "Will the Liu family evacuate tomorrow morning? We have to leave. If the Liu family refuses under the pretext that the Yamen is investigating the case..."
"We cooperated with the Liu family''s search. We can''t delay our trip for the sake of the Liu family, right? Regardless of whether the Liu family lets us go or not, this trip was decided early in the morning."
Song Jin said the most suitable approach.
If you don''t leave as planned, others might become more suspicious. You have to give it a try first to see if you can leave as you wish.
Chatting here.
The search of the dock is still ongoing.
From time to time there would be some commotion, and sometimes the things that happened were not small at all.
As long as there is excitement, Qin Ba will go check it out and share it with Song Jin when he comes back, "Boss Mo said that the jade ring in the room was missing. He said it was passed down from his ancestors and he was making trouble with the Liu family."
"I know these people are restless."
Song Jin was happy to hear the gossip, "The men of the Liu family have done a lot of robbing and looting. When they saw something good during the search, they knew they wouldn''t be able to hold it back. What happened next?"
"The officers and Liu family members who boarded the ship were detained. After a body search, they were found on the body of one of the Liu family members." Qin Ba said happily.
The Liu family is in such disgrace!
Then there was another commotion. It was said that the cargo boxes piled up in the hold were collapsed by the searchers.
Now it''s better, the losses were heavy.
The reason is that the box contains porcelain, and it will all break if it is dumped.
Song Jin watched again.
The head of the Liu family has to pay again.
Qin Qi couldn''t help but remind him: "Don''t you have a rest, Master? It''s already getting late."
"I feel energetic, but I can''t sleep even when I go back to my room."
Song Jin is not telling lies, he is full of spirit.
Especially seeing the Liu family destroying themselves.
The Liu family offended many people this time.
Song Jin dared to let the Liu family search openly, because there was nothing on the ship that could not be revealed. After all, she was really doing business in an upright manner, and she paid no less in business taxes every year.
Therefore, we are not afraid of being searched by officials.
Some of them are different and have many shady things.
The head of the Liu family soon discovered.
The real difficulty is not Song Jin.
Song Jin has a backer, but as long as the profit is enough, he can still cooperate with the Liu family in the search.
Searched in the middle of the night.
There are two fleets that are tough and don''t allow others to search them. They just can''t stand up to the officials and the Liu family.
There has been a stalemate.
The Liu family surrounded the two fleets.
Song Jin was just unlucky.
The head of the Liu family has long forgotten about her. Compared to her little grasshopper, those two fleets are more suspicious.
Song Jin stayed up all the time to watch the show.
"Do you know who those two caravans belong to?"
Song Jin dared to be sure that there were big backers behind those two parties, not small ones at all, and he seemed not to be afraid of the Liu family. Qin Ba asked again, "I''m going to ask about it?"
"Forget it, I''ll do it."
Song Jin flicked his sleeves and, surrounded by everyone, walked off the cargo ship to watch the excitement there.
It’s not just Song Jin.
There are also people from other boats who will come down to take a look.
"Boss Song!"
Yoshikawa used his fat advantage to push through the crowd and squeezed to Song Jin''s side.
Just as he was about to get closer, Qin Qi reached out to block him.
This action made Yoshikawa''s little eyes sparkle, "Boss Song, what a coincidence, you come down to see the fun too?"
"I''m not curious."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Song Jin pointed to the largest ship not far away, which was also one of the fleets confronting the Liu family. "Those people on the ship must be guards. They are fully equipped with weapons and equipment. It is not simple at first glance."
Yoshikawa kept nodding and said in less than standard Chinese: "It''s not simple, it''s very not simple."
"Do you know whose fleet it is?" Song Jin took the opportunity to ask after catching the snake and following the stick.
Yoshikawa shook his head and said he didn''t know.
There are many large ships at this dock, and not all of them are caravans.
Then Yoshikawa pointed to a few of the ships and whispered mysteriously: "Those ships are not allowed to be searched, and they are probably not clean."
Not clean?
Song Jin suddenly pretended to be enlightened.
This is the vessel in question.
Sure enough, the officers and the Liu family forcibly boarded the ship to search and found a dozen innocent girls and a group of abducted children. This was a big case.
The head of the Liu family seized the opportunity.
Send these people to the Yamen.
It was considered that he had handled a case for the government and gained his reputation.
After this incident, the Liu family''s forceful search of the dock can divert most of the public anger caused. If the operation is done properly, the reputation can be improved. In addition, it can also serve as a warning to other large ships.
To make the crowd suspicious they would not allow a search.
Is there any hidden secret?
Finally, a very impressive middle-aged man appeared on the boat and handed the leading officer a jade pendant.
When the official saw the jade sign, he immediately knelt down.
Just as he was about to say something, he was kicked down by the middle-aged man and cursed something that even the official did not dare to say.
Songjin Station is farther away.
Can''t hear what they say.
But with such an incident, no matter how hard the Liu family tried, they still couldn''t find the fleet.
The Liu family worked all night and returned without success. The only fleet that had not been searched became a thorn in the heart of the Liu family.
After removing the people.
The big ships at the dock were standing in the distance and watching.
The head of the Liu family spoke to his confidants in a low voice.
Then, Butler Liu stuffed the banknotes to the leading official and asked in a low voice: "Sir,...can you tell me where this person is from?"
The official took the banknote and said, "He is a nobleman from Beijing."
Butler Liu understood.
The official said in awe: "That is a white jade axe-style pendant with a carved dragon and chi."
It was the first time in his life that he saw it with his own eyes, and he had only seen patterns before.
In order to prevent the officials below from offending the nobles, the government would draw a book of status symbols and send them to the yamen of each state capital so that those people could identify them before going on duty.
The head of the Liu family learned of this result.
Nothing was said on the surface.
Behind the scenes, he began to order others to investigate.
