Duanzhou yamen, above the court.
Bao Zheng, dressed in official clothes, was sitting in the hall. All the people who came down from the hall were more than a dozen ink workshop owners, and Hua Ni was the leader.
"My Lord, some of us want to ask, when will this inkstone be available?"
On hearing this, Bao Zheng looked at Zhang Shuli and asked, "don't inkstones always exist?"
One of the owners of the ink workshop began to wave his hand, "Oh, my Lord, we haven't seen the shadow of the inkstone for several months. If we go on like this, it's time for us to drink from the West and the North!"
As soon as he spoke, all of them responded immediately.
"Yes, my Lord, when will this inkstone be available?"
"We haven't seen inkstones for a long time."
After all, they all agreed that if there was no inkstone, it would be clear who was lying.
Zhang Shuli's cold sweat and cold eyes stare at Qin Yan. He knows that this is Qin Yan's trick. But if he thinks that he can get hold of him, Qin Yan will laugh at him too much!
"My Lord, the supply of inkstones was originally distributed on demand, and not all inkstone workshops were able to take their turn. They all came according to the registration time. Now they have just provided the inkstone registered half a year ago. These people may have just registered recently. I remember boss Zhang, you only registered two months ago, right?"
Zhang Shuli asked the master of the ink workshop, who was the first to speak, in a bold tone.
The master of the ink workshop was the most fierce, but now Zhang Shuli asked, and immediately counseled him. After all, Zhang Shuli controlled Duan Inkstone for many years and offended him. I'm afraid he won't be in Duanzhou in the future.
No matter how unwilling he was, he could only swallow it down. Boss Zhang put his hands on it, leaned over to Bao Zheng and nodded his head submissively.
We all know that the people don't fight with the officials. Besides, Zhang Shuli is in charge of his own life and death. In any case, he can't afford to offend.
As soon as he saw that there was no one to talk to, Zhang Shuli got the upper hand and showed his official authority. "You're not going yet. Are you waiting for tea?"
A few ink shop owners look, you look at me, I look at you, gray left.
The flower Ni of see is anxious, pull them, "Alas, you don't go, just how say, how this meeting changed mouth!"
"Oh, my little lady, I advise you that we can't fight them when big things become small things."
"Lord Bao will decide for us, as long as you are willing to tell the truth, you..."
Seeing that the master of the ink workshop left, Hua Ni couldn't say any more. She turned back to Qin Yan and showed her hand, with a helpless face.
Zhang Shuli snorted coldly, then bowed his hand to Bao Zheng, "my Lord, because this is a misunderstanding, please tell me!"
Bao Zheng didn't speak.
Zhang Shuli then arched his hand, "if there is nothing wrong with you, my Lord, I will retire!"
Just brushed sleeve to want to leave, but don't want Qin Yan arch hand way, "Zhang adult and stay!"
As soon as he heard Qin Yan speak, Zhang Shuli didn't think it was very good. Sure enough, he heard Qin Yan say, "Mr. Bao, since all the inkstones have been supplied to all the ink workshops, but the tribute of inkstones is imminent. We can only ask them to give up the inkstones first for emergency, and make them up later. What do you think?"
Bao Zheng nodded, rolled his beard and said, "it's also a way. What do you think of Mr. Zhang?"
"My Lord, I'm afraid it's not right for me. I don't think these ink workshop owners will like it!"
Qin Yan interface way, "now there is no other way, only one by one to ask, really can't compensate some silver, there is always willing!"
Listen to Qin Yan this set of, put clear is to want good words, Zhang Shu Li can't suppress fire, "want to ask you to ask, I don't have that Kung Fu!"
Just wait for this sentence!
Qin Yan nodded, "naturally, I dare not bother Mr. Zhang, but also ask Mr. Zhang to provide the account book, so that we can know that it is the ink workshop that has recently received the inkstone?"
Books!
Zhang Shuli was surprised, and then he reacted and glared at Qin Yan.
Qin Yan's face is innocent, "how, do you think there is something wrong?"
"You..." Zhang Shuli's angry hands were trembling. I didn't expect that Qin Yan would be waiting for him after such a big circle.
He thought that Qin Yan just let Hua Ni find the master of the ink shop to make trouble, and wanted to take the opportunity to expose him. In fact, the front is just the foreshadowing. Qin Yan's real purpose is to make money.
Can account books be easily taken out?
"No! The account book is so confidential that you are not a member of the Yamen. How can you give it to you easily? "
Qin yantiao eyebrow, not the people in the Yamen now of course to shut up, but it is the people in the Yamen should speak.
Bao Zheng said, "then give it to my official."
Seeing that Zhang Shuli glared at him angrily, Bao Zheng said coldly, "don't you trust me, Mr. Zhang?"
“…… Of course not! "
Zhang Shuli gritted his teeth, but he had no choice but to promise to go back and get the account book.
As soon as Zhang Shuli left, Bao Zheng sighed, "listen to what those ink workshop owners said, as the master of Qin said, this inkstone is very flawed."Qin Yan lifted the corner of his robe and knelt down.
"Mr. Qin, this is..."
Qin inkstone arched his hand, and his handsome face was heavy. "My Lord, once upon a time when Mr. Li was here, there were many problems, but no one dared to say, no one dared to say, how many ink workshops were exploited and infringed. Zhang Shuli was arrogant and domineering about Duan inkstone, and asked Mr. Bao to do justice for the head of Duanzhou ink workshop!"
Finish saying, Qin Yan deeply a worship, that never straight back, but for Duan Yan bent over.
The feeling of powerlessness made my heart ache.
From Zhang Zhubo to Zhang Shuli, from plague to Mo Fang, if she had doubts before, she would be sure now.
Qin Yan opened ink workshop not to earn money, not to revive the Qin family ink workshop, he was to set up the Bureau, his purpose was Zhang Shuli!
He asked himself to lead the inkstone, and also told himself that Zhang's scribes would deliberately trouble her. He asked her to be patient and incite the master of the inkstone workshop to come to the Yamen.
He thought that he could sue Zhang Shuli, but he didn't want those ink shop owners to rebel. But it was enough for Bao Zheng to know how difficult it was for Duanzhou ink shop to read the account book.
As long as the account book is taken out, Zhang Shuli will have bad luck.
When she went back, Hua Ni said so, but Qin Yan shook his head, "Zhang Kaowen is not so stupid. He won't take out the account book easily."
"The man asked him to take the bag, but did he dare to take it?"
"If he doesn't take it out, he will offend Lord Bao. What should you do?"
That sounds very meaningful!
Hua Ni slowly to Qin Yan's eyes, "take is also dead, don't take is also dead, that can only fake!"
"That's right!"
"But will Mr. Bao believe it?"
"There's no real comparison, he said it's true, it's true!"
That's true, but -
" Mr. Bao is not so easy to coax. "
Qin Yan shook his head and sighed, "this is the way to be an official. No matter how smart Mr. Bao is, he will be held down. If he wants to move, he has to hold enough evidence to overthrow the other party. Otherwise, he will succeed and become benevolent."
"And the books are the evidence? So as long as we get the books, right? It's simple. I'll steal it... "
Hua Ni was happy, but Qin Yan poured cold water on her.
"What we can think of is what Zhang Kaowen wants. I'm afraid it's very difficult for you to steal it."
Fanny broke down. "So what?"
Qin Yan a smile, that smile seems to be hidden in the heart of thousands of gullies, countless longitude and latitude in his heart.
