Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

Chapter 197 The choice between life and death

"Freeze all property?" Li Wei looked at Chu Mo with confusion.

Chu Xin, who was on the side, looked at Chu Mo with eyes that were about to burst out with sparks.

When Chu Mo saw that the county magistrate ignored his wishes, he remembered that there was no such thing as freezing in this era.

So, he said again: "All shops and industries related to the Chu family are closed. They are not allowed to open until the matter is cleared up. Let's conduct a closed audit."

When Li Wei heard this, he immediately understood what Chu Mo meant and said immediately: "That's what it should be."

Then he rolled his eyes and said: "For the benefit of both of you, and also because you will not transfer property temporarily, you are not allowed to leave the county government office during the audit period."

When Chu Mo heard what Li Wei said, he almost gave him 999 likes.

He immediately said: "What you said is absolutely true. For our common interests, I am willing to stay in the county government."

Chu Xin was so angry that the two of them were singing along and almost burst into anger.

She calmed herself down like you, and then said coldly to Li Wei: "Master Magistrate, do you know how much my property is, and how much loss will be caused by shutting down for a day like this? Who will be responsible for these losses at that time? ?”

Before the county magistrate spoke, Chu Mo said directly: "Little sister, don't worry, I also have a share in your properties. In this way, during the period of suspension of business, our losses will be divided equally."

Chu Xin looked at Chu Mo in disbelief and shouted: "Why should I bear half of the responsibility for the closure you caused?"

Chu Mo dug his ears, smiled slightly at Chu Xin and said, "Little sister, what you said is wrong. It was you who proposed the divorce, and you agreed to it. We just came to this county. Yamen."

"Why is it that now I'm raking it out and saying it's my responsibility?"

"You are using strong words to make excuses. I have said that we are severing ties, but you know better than me what is going on with the family's property."

At this time, Chu Xin no longer believed Chu Mo's nonsense about amnesia.

She thought that Chu Mo was lying to her before, just to seize the property in her hands.

Chu Mo chuckled: "Little sister, the accounts are not unclear, and you can't tell the truth. What did you rely on to make a fortune? We know in our hearts that you were unkind in the first place. Don't blame me for being unjust now."

After saying that, he turned to the county magistrate and said: "Master Li, you have also seen that my sister-in-law proposed to break off the relationship before, but now she is reluctant to part with the family property. Therefore, I think we should carefully verify the Chu family and her name." How many industries are there?”

County magistrate Li Wei nodded: "Master Chu is right. According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, the family property held by a woman before leaving the court must be returned to the family unconditionally when she leaves the court."

"And Miss Chu has not yet left the cabinet. Therefore, whether it is the Chu family's property or her personal property, it should all belong to Mr. Chu."

"And you two have decided to break off the relationship now. According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, Miss Chu can take away the dowry prepared by her father, brother and mother. As for the rest, it depends on Mr. Chu's wishes."

Chu Mo winked at Chu Xin and said, "When I took over the house, my sister-in-law was still young and her parents had already left before they had time to prepare the dowry."

"As for the dowry I will give to my sister-in-law, I will give you 10 taels of silver, 2 pieces of brocade, 1 mu of thin farmland, and an old cow."

"As for the dowry that my parents have not yet received and purchased, I will be a good person and give her another three taels of silver."

"You...Chu Mo, are you really going to do this?"

Chu Xin's eyes were red and she looked at Chu Mo with gritted teeth.

Chu Mo shrugged, and then said to Li Wei: "Your Majesty, my family made its fortune in Luoyang, and Luoyang is our family's headquarters."

"So, you must arrange for someone to go to Luoyang first to transfer those properties to my name."

"As for those in Chang'an City, I believe you can capture them."

Li Wei felt a chill go down his spine when he saw Chu Mo eating people without spitting out their bones.

He glanced at Chu Xin with pity, then cupped his hands to Chu Mo and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Chu, our county council will arrange for someone to handle your matter..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Chu Mo: "Lord County Magistrate, this matter cannot be rushed. If the people you send out are in a hurry, if something is missed somewhere, then I will suffer a big loss."

"Anyway, I know that it is normal to deal with such a thing for a year and a half, so I am mentally prepared."

The words were so obvious, no matter how stupid Li Wei was, he still knew what to do.

He cupped his hands and said, "Then I'll let the officers search quietly. Mr. Chu can't be anxious or dissatisfied then."

Chu Mo chuckled: "Sir, since I have left the matter to you, I can certainly trust you."

Seeing the two of them colluding together, Chu Xin really wanted to go up and reward them with their big mouths.

But people are under the eaves and have to bow their heads.

Now that Li Chengqian is gone, he is just a businessman. Here, he doesn't even have the most basic right to speak. How can he compete with Chu Mo, a devil in human skin.

She quickly gestured to a secret guard at the door, and then pretended to be angry and yelled at Chu Mo: "Chu Mo, remember what happened today, and don't forget your identity."

"Unless you can kill me in one fell swoop, I will always make a comeback."

Chu Mo was stunned for a moment, then looked at Chu Xin with a strange look: "Are you reminding me to kill someone and silence them?"

When the county magistrate Li Wei heard this, he immediately choked on his own saliva and coughed.

Chu Mo ignored Li Wei and looked at Chu Xin firmly.

The two people's eyes met, and they both saw the determination in each other's eyes.

Both of them knew that as long as they backed down today, they would be overpowered by the other party in the days to come.

Even though Chu Mo has the initiative now, Chu Xin is not without backup options. She also has her own trump card.

However, it is obviously inappropriate to use one's trump card because of this small friction.

Chu Mo, on the other hand, was thinking about what his success rate would be if he attacked Chu Xin now.

Finally, he sighed and had to give up this unrealistic idea.

Don't say anything else, let's just say that Yang Hongqian behind her is not someone she can offend.

Although Master Ziyang promised to protect him, if he wanted him to take the initiative to deal with Yang Hongqian, it would be nothing more than a dream.

What's more, as a time traveler who came more than half a year before him, Chu Mo didn't believe that Chu Xin dared to break into Chang'an City and care about that high position without a backup plan.
