I receive courier in Datang

Chapter 217
"Ouch!" Li Hu let out a strange cry.

Since Li Chengqian asked him to rush, he has nothing to say and just rushes to his mother!Anyway, when the time comes, Li Chengqian will be in charge, and the crime Li Chengqian had accused Cao Kaifeng of before was very serious.

Although others don't know it, they know very well that attacking the prince's men is also a serious crime.

When Cao Kaifeng heard this strange cry, his feet trembled, and he almost knelt on the ground. He was really scared, this place was simply too terrifying, and he even felt that the people inside had demonic powers.

"Why are you running? Don't run!" Li Hu shouted.

He stepped up in a few strides and grabbed Cao Kaifeng by the collar.

As an accountant, Cao Kaifeng is not small, but compared with Li Hu, who has been practicing all year round, he is still much shorter. He was grabbed by Li Hu and could not move forward.

Li Hu said: "The person who beat us still wants to run away?" Li Hu said.

"Negative emotion value from Cao Kaifeng, +188"

Who hit whom?Although Lu Zihou was lying on the ground, he actually didn't suffer any injuries at all. He was in good health all over and was much healthier than him.

And what about him?The guy inside, whom he had never met before, was beaten with unknown means, and all the teeth in his mouth were knocked out!

The point is, he really didn't see anything!No evidence!

He decided to leave first, gather his troops, and then come to seek justice with the Renyi Escort. The few people he brought seemed not enough.

Cao Kaifeng looked stern and said inwardly: "Let go! Otherwise, I will break my skin!"

Li Hu pressed his nose with his other hand, looking very ungraceful.

"Just wait for you to say this, let's do it!" Li Hu said.

After he finished speaking, he released Cao Kaifeng.

There was no other way, Cao Kaifeng had no choice but to say: "Let's go shoulder to shoulder!"

Li Hu sneered, put his hand to his mouth, and whistled.

Suddenly, many people appeared from all directions, all of whom were secretly following Li Chengqian to protect him.

Cao Kaifeng: "???"

"Negative emotion value from Cao Kaifeng, +155"

Li Chengqian's voice came from the door: "Li Hu, don't fight. We have brought so many people and have so much power, not to beat people, but so that when others want to fight us, we can push them into chairs. , talk to us calmly."

After hearing this, Li Hu couldn't help admiring: "Oh, that's really good! Yes, we don't do this kind of thing that bullies the few with the more. We despise your behavior just now! You have to talk to our boss calmly. Want to talk?"

What else can Cao Kaifeng say?I can only nod.

After entering the door, Cao Kaifeng finally saw Li Chengqian's true face in Lushan, a young man, sitting firmly on a chair in the middle of the lobby, drinking tea, not obviously happy or angry, but giving off a feeling of power without anger.

"Sit." Li Chengqian said.

His tone was very flat, just like what he usually said, but Cao Kaifeng felt a sense of command, he couldn't even control his body, and sat down suddenly.

There is no way, Li Chengqian, as the crown prince, occupies a high position, so he naturally speaks with such majesty. He deliberately restrained himself before, it was for his own people, and it naturally didn't matter to others.

Li Chengqian asked: "Cao Kaifeng, where did you collect the bill?"

Cao Kaifeng said honestly: "I am the debt collector from Ruikang."

"What does Ruikang do?" Li Chengqian was puzzled.

"It's in the medicine business." Cao Kaifeng said.

"I'm surprised. In the medicinal materials business, if you are doing a good job but not doing business well, why do you want usury?" Li Chengqian asked doubtfully.

Cao Kaifeng actually doesn't understand business matters, so he can only honestly say: "I don't know either."

Li Chengqian said: "Lu Zihou, tell me, why is this?"

Lu Zihou got up, entered the door, and said: "It's like this. When we are in business, we will inevitably have a moment of anxiety. If we don't have money, we can only borrow money from other houses. After we get through the difficulties, we will pay it back. Now I can only use the house as a mortgage."

Li Chengqian thought of it at this time, it seems that this house is only worth five hundred guan, which is exactly the same as the usury money, so it is like this!
"I hate things like usury. Since this Ruikang has hit the muzzle, then, sorry, I can only use this Ruikang for surgery." Li Chengqian said.

The people in the bodyguard bureau are all confused, what does the boss mean by saying this?It's as if he really has the power in his hands, but can he really do it?Ruikang is a very large medicine store, even ranked in the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce.

Li Chengqian said: "Okay, since what you said is similar, please go to the jail for a while. After the other people from Ruikang are arrested, I will let them stand trial with you."

"Negative emotion value from Cao Kaifeng, +188"

He thought that Li Chengqian would let him go if he was so well-behaved, but unexpectedly, Li Chengqian made it so clear that he wanted to send him to prison.

He asked: "I wonder how long we will be detained?"

Li Chengqian said: "Injured people in the street, the injury is relatively minor, within a year, it shouldn't be long."

Cao Kaifeng breathed a sigh of relief.

"However, you follow Ruikang to collect usury, which is unreasonable. I am afraid that you will be sentenced to three to five years." Li Chengqian said.

He didn't know Tang Law well, but the law was nothing more than favors, and the Ministry of Punishment didn't know whether to give him his face or not.

"Negative emotion value from Cao Kaifeng, +155"

He wanted to cry but had no tears, it was over...

He was taken away by Li Hu's men.

Lu Zihou said: "I'm afraid this matter is difficult to handle! Usury is not a very serious crime, what should we do?"

"Why is this not a serious method?" Li Chengqian asked.

"As long as it's not violent collection, that's fine. The court does not support the extra interest, but the court supports legal interest." Lu Zihou said.

Li Chengqian was taken aback: "Does that mean they are not guilty?"

Lu Zihou nodded: "Yes, there is no crime in the first place. What crime can there be in borrowing money?"

"What crimes do you guys commit in business?" Li Chengqian asked.

Lu Zihou: "..."

It's embarrassing for Li Chengqian to ask this question. Of course he knows these things, but can he say it?Can't.

"I'm not too sure about this," Lu Zihou said.

Li Chengqian: "Then, I can only analyze it myself. If a medicine shop is very large, it must pay taxes to the court, and of course they are not willing to pay this money. Maybe..."

Lu Zihou had no choice but to say: "As expected, you know that, that's right, every shop is doing this, and it's just a small amount."

Li Chengqian said: "I knew it, so let's help me find the evidence that they did these things. When the time comes, I will give them a decisive blow!"

Lu Zihou was speechless, Li Chengqian thought too simple, this matter is very troublesome.

"I wonder how much you are willing to pay to do this?" Lu Zihou asked.

"No matter what the cost." Li Chengqian said.

"That's okay, the things that can be solved with money are all simple things," Lu Zihou said.

With a lot of money, there must be someone willing to stand up and expose the tax evasion of Ruikang Drugstore.

Lin Wanfang said: "It's better not to do this thing, it's better to settle the enemies than tie them up."

"It's okay. What I did is actually to help our family get back what we lost. You have to know that our family has a big business and these things are very important." Li Chengqian said.

The people in the Escort are very puzzled, what is the identity of the boss?Why do you say that?

Taxes belong to their family, so isn't he...

Before these people could react, Li Chengqian said: "I will go back first. After that, someone will come to help you with this matter. Lu Zihou will assist you."

After he finished speaking, he was about to leave.

Xu Jiaojiao followed with a shy face.

"Boss, where do you live? Can I visit?" Xu Jiaojiao asked.

"Next time, definitely next time!" Li Chengqian said.

He got into his carriage that didn't look like much on the outside but was extremely luxurious on the inside.

Xu Jiaojiao could only stare blankly, feeling so uncomfortable in her heart!

"Hmph, such an ordinary carriage doesn't look like much at home!" Xu Jiaojiao said.

I say this purely to comfort myself.

The escort agency's dilemma was resolved, and everyone decided to go to a restaurant and have a big meal, and everyone cheered.

Prince's Mansion.

Li Chengqian was very bored. Although he told Lu Zihou to let him do this, he still felt that it was not fast enough.

He decided to do it himself.

Generally speaking, the real account books are all with the boss. What Li Chengqian thought of was to go to the owner of Ruikang Drug Store and get the real account books back.

Knowing himself and the enemy, he will win every battle, so he decided to find someone to figure out the enemy before making any plans.

Not long after, Xiao Ningzi came back after inquiring about the news.

"The owner of Ruikang Drugstore is called Zhu Dachang. He used to collect garbage. Somehow, he suddenly became prosperous. Then he started the medicinal material business and did very well. He has a private house in Pingkangfang. He collects it every few days. Go there to meet his concubine." Xiao Ningzi said.

"What chance do you think he has with him?" Li Chengqian asked.

"I don't know about this. I just heard from people that Zhu Dachang is very cautious. Maybe he really carries the account book with him." Xiao Ningzi said.

"Okay, you go down." Li Chengqian said.

He was ready to leave. He was going to Pingkangfang to do something.

When the sky darkened, Li Chengqian changed into clothes and came to Pingkangfang.

He went directly to the house where Zhu Dachang often went to stay. When he could hardly wait any longer, Zhu Dachang came.

Li Chengqian smiled slightly, entering the dark night, what he likes most is this feeling of the enemy's light and our darkness.

Zhu Dachang knocked on the door.

Boom, boom, boom, boom.

The door opened, and a young woman came out.

"Damn it! You still knew how to come! I thought you wouldn't come!"

The woman directly pulled Zhu Dachang into the door.

Li Chengqian on the side rolled his eyes, he was convinced, what are these people doing!nausea.

With a little strength under his feet, he came to the yard and found a place to hide.

The two people in the room couldn't help being affectionate, Li Chengqian had no interest in these things.

He observed for a while and found that Zhu Dachang really brought the account book. Li Chengqian was immediately relieved.

He decided to go to another place first, wait until midnight, and then come to pick up things, after all, there is a chance in the middle of the night.

When I came to a tavern, it was a very ordinary fly tavern, inconspicuous but very authentic.

"Xiao Er, five catties of cooked mutton, and two taels of green ant wine." Li Chengqian said.

"okay!"

Although the waiter didn't know why this guest ate so much mutton and just wanted to drink two ounces of wine, he still hurriedly brought the wine and meat.

It is said that it is five catties of cooked mutton, but in fact the bones account for a large proportion. Li Chengqian doesn't care about these. Meat without bones is boring to eat.

There wasn't much wine, it was just a soothing effect on his throat. He ate the mutton and drank a little wine occasionally.

"Yes, the meat from the street shops is the most authentic, even better than the meat in the palace." Li Chengqian thought to himself.

In fact, the meat in the palace is better than the meat here, but the cooking method is very light.

The highest state of enjoying food is to enjoy the taste of the ingredients themselves. Therefore, the less seasoning, the higher the quality of the ingredients.

Of course, the ingredients used in street shops will not be very good, so naturally more seasonings should be used.

There is a saying that boars cannot eat fine bran, and it is Li Chengqian who is talking about it. He quite likes to eat heavy-tasting food.

When he was satisfied with the meal, he took out a small plate of chili sauce, added the mashed garlic already in the store, made a bowl of garlic chili, and dipped it in.

The hot mutton fully stimulated the aroma of garlic and spicy pepper, not only in Li Chengqian's mouth, but also wafting in the shop.

"What is this?" asked a guest closer to Li Chengqian.

"This is the dipping sauce I brought with me. It's very enjoyable to eat with it." Li Chengqian said.

The diner who asked the question gave a thumbs up: "You really can't be judged by appearances. I didn't expect you to be an old gourmet at such a young age!"

Li Chengqian said: "I don't dare to take it, I don't dare to take it!"

"Another five catties of mutton! I want the biggest bones!" Li Chengqian said.

"Okay!" Xiao Er said.

At first, Li Chengqian ate very quickly, and then he ate slowly and chewed carefully. He saw that the diners nearby also had a great appetite and wanted to eat more.

Soon, it was midnight, and there was no curfew in Pingkangfang, and small shops were open until midnight.

Li Chengqian liked this kind of small shop very much, and wondered if he would open one too, called Late Night Canteen.

After almost eating, Li Chengqian paid the money first, and then tasted the mutton soup in small sips.

The mutton soup in this shop was very clear, but it was very flavorful, so he had to drink it in small sips.

The sheep used are specially raised small-tailed sheep, which have a strong smell. For those who like mutton, it is a delicacy that must not be missed.

For Li Chengqian, it is also a good taste to just take small sips.

When the time was almost up, he picked up the bowl, drank it all in one gulp, and left gracefully.

"This little gentleman is not very old, so he can really eat! One person ate three servings."

"More than that! I think it's enough for five people. You didn't count the soup he drank."

The boys discussed in private.

After eating so much, the two taels of green ant wine had no effect at all, and the wind was a bit cold at night, so Li Chengqian woke up instantly.

He came to Zhu Dachang's villa, jumped into the yard, and looked at the house. Everyone inside was asleep.

Here comes the opportunity...
