Chapter 308: Boiled Frog in Warm Water
The next morning, Sun Shaozong arrived in the main hall of the Criminal Department.
A courtyard with two entrances is enough, as long as one can move in as soon as possible. The location should not be too remote. If it is near the Northwest of the inner city, it would be best.
Lin Delu transcribed Sun Shaozong's repeated requests one by one on paper, carefully confirmed them, and then patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, My Lord. We, the people in the Criminal Department, will be able to find a suitable house.
Last night, Sun Chengye, Yu Qian, and Sun Chengtao went to talk to him about buying a property.
Sun Chengye has decided to stay in the Capital for the exam and was preparing to pick up his family to come to the capital. He would naturally not be able to stay with his uncle at that time.
As for Yu Qian, although he was somewhat vague, Minister Wang had leaked the news and stated that he would secretly help him stay in the Capital to serve. Therefore, Yu Qian was also preparing to bring in his family and settle in the Capital.
As for Sun Chengtao
He had no intention of buying a house in the Capital, but it was highly likely that he would move to Sun Chengye's house.
Sun Shaozong and his Big Brother symbolically retained a few words and then asked them in detail about their requirements for buying a house.
His Big Brother was mostly on duty outside the city, with the majority of soldiers in his hands. It was naturally more convenient for Sun Shaozong to inquire about the situation in the city.
So when he arrived at the Yamen early this morning, Sun Shaozong called for Lin Delu and briefly repeated the request, so that the clerks below could help pay attention.
But when Lin Delu hurriedly went to the East Cross Courtyard and conveyed Sun Shaozong's latest instructions, Cheng Rixing waited for the opportunity to enter the inner room.
Master.
He then heard him saying, "Have you ever heard of the incident where Second Master Bao was scalded? Alll latest novels at novelhall.com
Jia Baoyu got burned?
Sun Shaozong quickly asked, "When did it happen? Is it serious?
I heard he was burned on the night of the first day of the lunar new year, but it's not very serious. It's just that his face was burned with lamp oil, and I don't know if it'll leave any scars now.
Cheng Rixing spoke with a hint of regret and an unbearable expression on his face.
Sun Shaozong didn't feel any impatience. On the contrary, he even felt that if Jia Baoyu really broke his appearance, it might be great news for Lin Daiyu. At least in the future, there wasnt a need to worry anymore. This guy was like a teddy, flirting between men and women.
Of course, this could only be a thought in his heart, but it was not easy to comment on this.
Moreover, he didn't know about this matter, but now that he knew about it, he couldn't help but pay a visit.
So Sun Shaozong ordered the duty attendants to go to Sun Mansion to collect some nourishing herbs, as he prepared to leave the office early in the afternoon to visit Rongguo Mansion.
Fu Shi's eyes were wide open with anger, and only after a while did he squeeze a word out of his teeth, Speak!
Sun Shaozong said, "Actually, it was my distant nephews who gained fame and wanted to settle down in the Capital.
I believe that you have a wide connection on normal days, so I would like you to help pay attention and see if there are suitable secondary courtyards that can be moved in as soon as possible. The location should not be too biased; it will be best if the location is in the northwest of the inner city.
He kept talking about the purchasing indicators here, but Fu Shi became more and more confused as he listened. He collected the evidence of his shortcomings so hard to ask him to help keep an eye on the house?
Wasnt this too absurd?
If he directly asked for two houses, Fu Shi thought it would be more reliable!
So Fu Shi couldn't help but question, "What... What the hell do you mean?
Sun Shaozong was puzzled and said, "Am I not clear enough? Or is it that you are not willing to help even with this small favor?
I
Fu Shi stared at Sun Shaozong as if he could tell what kind of tricks he was playing, but how could he see through Sun Shaozong's calm and confident face?
Besides, paying attention to the house was not a big deal, especially since it was just a matter of paying attention and not saying that he definitely must help find the house. It was not a big deal to deal with it in person, but to work behind the scenes without effort.
With such thoughts in mind, Fu Shi said, "If it were just such a small matter, I wouldn't refuse.
After speaking, he couldn't help but ask again, "Is there anything else besides that?
After receiving a positive answer, Fu Shi hurriedly left with a sense of relief.
Sun Shaozong, on the other hand, only saw him leave the courtyard of the Criminal Investigation Department before a cold smirk burst out on his lips.
Although the matter of Fu Shi's embezzlement of the Ma family's land could be considered a pretext, if he wanted to use it as a basis to blackmail him to betray Jia Yucun and become Sun Shaozong's henchman completely, it might still be a considerable loss of weight.
Therefore, Sun Shaozong prepared to cook frogs in warm water, arrange some trivial matters for him first, and then gradually...
Dong Dong Dong, Dong Dong, Dong Dong!
Suddenly, a dull drumming sound came from ahead, and the smile on Sun Shaozong's lips suddenly collapsed.
Since he was promoted to the position, the drum of grievances in this government office has repeatedly sounded. If there were any major cases, he could naturally resolve them, but most of them were civil disputes that involved mutual disputes, which was really annoying.
But since someone has beaten a drum to complain, how could he ignore it?
Sigh~
He sighed and shouted, "Private Advisor Cheng, go and gather all the people and prepare the court for questioning.
