Quick travel to save a miserable life
Chapter 52 The bride-to-be (10)
The houses of the stewards are all located in the back streets of the Lin Mansion. There are more than a dozen yards of various sizes behind the mansion, which are all prepared by the Lin Mansion for the families of the stewards.
Although there are only three masters in the Lin Mansion, there are nearly 200 registered servants, not counting the people scattered on the farm!
So many servants are distributed in the inner and outer courtyards, with more than a dozen departments, large and small, such as: kitchen, sewing room, laundry room, accounting room, tea room, stable, concierge, sweeper, warehouse, etc. Although these departments vary in size, But every department must have a steward. In other words, there are more than a dozen stewards in the government.
Except for the accountant, who is a good citizen hired from outside, the other stewards and servants are all slaves in the house.
So many servants, a large part of them are the children of the Lin family, that is, the descendants of the slaves who signed the death contract. They are slaves when they are born, and they serve in the family when they grow up. After several generations, the population has increased. Quite a few, and some of them are bought from outside, so they are a minority.
Manager Qi was bought from outside, which was why Lin Hui chose him to do the inspection. Although he had been in the mansion for many years, he was not so involved with other servants in the mansion to avoid favoritism.
Of course, not all of these stewards are greedy, and inspections are also prioritized. Important departments such as the warehouse, kitchen, and concierge are well-paid. The homes of these stewards are the focus of inspections. In comparison, others The importance is not that strong.
Following the riot in the Lin Mansion last night, the backstreets of the Lin Mansion were in chaos for most of the day.
However, the harvest this time was quite impressive. It was far from comparable to the three melons and two dates copied from the house. The amount was even beyond Lin Hui's expectation.
Aside from the normal income of the stewards and their families and the reasonable and normal increase in assets, the amount of silver seized was actually as high as more than [-] taels, as well as some jewelry, house deeds, land deeds and the like.
Among them, a number of pawn tickets were also found at the home of the manager of the mansion's large warehouse. Some of them were items that had been registered in the mansion and were later written off under various names. The origin of the items on these pawn tickets is very obvious. .
The group of people found a lot of precious ingredients and some obviously excessive amounts of silver in the house of the head steward in the kitchen.
When the person responsible for the search asked about the origin of these items, the woman in charge of the kitchen made random excuses, one after another.
When the nurses were moving the things and money out, she simply started to act violently, preventing them from being taken away, and even scratched the neck of one of the nurses until blood dripped from her neck.
She originally aimed for the face, but luckily she couldn't reach it due to her height. Otherwise, if the blow had hit her face, the nursing home would have been disfigured.
By mid-afternoon, the group's operation ended. The confiscated property was temporarily placed in an empty room in the front yard, but the list was delivered to Lin Hui.
Steward Qi is a thoughtful person. He not only recorded the things found in each steward's home, but also noted each person's service time, and briefly described the furnishings at home and the clothes of his family. Lin Hui looked at the long list with a meaningful expression on her face. Unknown smile.
In fact, she originally wanted to move only the concierge and kitchen staff, because they provided the most convenience and played the greatest role to Li Gu and Butler Wang during the birth of the original body. Unexpectedly, they would kill other people as well. Digged out!
Well, anyway, they are all promoted and appointed by Butler Wang. They are more or less involved with Butler Wang, and they will have to be replaced sooner or later. This time is just right. They can be solved at once, which will also save the future. Please trouble me again!
As for Butler Wang, whom Lin Hui wanted to get rid of the most, he was deliberately ignored because Lin Hui's father specifically told Lin Hui in the morning not to disturb Butler Wang's recovery, and Lin Hui obediently agreed.
Even if Lin's father didn't tell him specifically in the morning, she wouldn't touch him for the time being!
Because even if something could be found from Steward Wang, the most he could be accused of was corruption. Based on the friendship over the years, Father Lin could at most be coldhearted and let him go and drive him out of the house. In this way On the contrary, it can free him. It is better to wait until the evidence is conclusive, capture him in one fell swoop, and convict him!
Lin Hui thought of the bodyguards that Lin's father hired to accompany him to the provincial capital to purchase gems. Although there were not many of them, at her request, they were all top-notch experts. One bodyguard was more than enough to deal with four or five ordinary servants. .
Now there is no fear of those ruthless gangsters taking action. Once they do, the escorts will definitely be able to defeat the enemy with all their strength. When the time comes, they will be left alive so that they can reveal the mastermind behind the scenes, which is Butler Wang.
According to the Law of Daye, if a slave harms his master, if the circumstances are serious, he can be punished by hanging. Butler Wang colluded with the gangsters and intended to murder the master of the family, so he was properly hanged!
Even though the people from Lin Hui's faction didn't go to Butler Wang's house to conduct inspections, everyone lived in this area and were very close to each other. The fluctuation was so great that Butler Wang quickly knew the whole story.
Butler Wang was extremely angry when he found out the reason!
He had received the news very early in the morning about what Qi Guanshi and his people had done in the mansion last night. He thought it was just a prestige created by Qi Guanshi to establish his authority. Even if he lost one of his subordinates, he would be nothing more than a minion. It's not difficult, it's nothing to worry about, but he didn't expect that today he would intensify his efforts and attack his managers, which he couldn't bear anymore!
He worked hard in the mansion for many years. He followed Mr. Lin as a boy since he was a child, serving the pen and ink. When Mr. Lin got older and stopped studying, he followed him out. Whether he was inspecting the shop or inspecting the farm, he always accompanied him.
Later, the old man of the Lin family passed away. Now Mr. Lin is the head of the family. He has also become a housekeeper. He no longer follows Mr. Lin as he did in the past, but he is even busier!
He has to worry about everything from handling the affairs of the mansion to arranging the farming and harvesting of the farm every day. Over the years, he can be regarded as a man of great merit and hard work. Now that he has only been ill for two days, the master allows the stewards to remove him from the mansion. How could he bear this!
Don't mention what the eldest lady means. How can the eldest lady care about this? It's not the master's instruction that Qi Qi dares to lead people to take action!
Regardless of these, he still had some faint fear in his heart. As soon as he learned that Mr. Lin had canceled his trip to the provincial capital, he rushed back from Zhuangzi and arranged for his confidants to quickly go to the "heroes" of Erlong Mountain. Send a letter informing them to cancel the operation to intercept and kill Mr. Lin, and he will pay the remaining balance.
However, the servant has been out for several days without any news, and now there are accidents happening one after another in the house. This series of accidents makes Butler Wang uneasy. Regardless of being lying in bed recovering from illness, he is struggling to get up. But he felt more and more dizzy, and he fell down on the bed!
After returning home, the boy was waiting in the outer room. Hearing the noise, he quickly entered the inner room and saw Butler Wang leaning on the bed. His face was flushed, his forehead was red and swollen, his eyes were closed, and there was no movement. The boy quickly put the He was helped to the bed, and he kept calling for people to come over, telling him to call the doctor quickly!
