Surprise! The prince is busy reading the princess' mind while raising a child!
Chapter 94: Banknote Disturbance
Three days later, "Yue Weiyang" closed down.
Because when the two big black dogs rushed in, they bit quite a few people.
On that day, there was a poetry reading on the first floor of "Yue Weiyang", and many famous and talented scholars in the capital city attended the reading. After all, reciting poems, drinking tea and tasting wine, listening to music and appreciating dance are also elegant things.
Among them was a young man named Zhou Jin, the youngest son of Zhou Chuang, the Minister of Personnel. In the chaos, he was knocked down by a black dog and bitten on the right cheek, disfiguring his face.
There were also several young scholars who were injured to varying degrees.
According to the laws of this dynasty, those with ugly or damaged faces cannot take part in the imperial examinations or serve as officials in the court.
Therefore, if Zhou Jin could not be cured, it would almost ruin his career.
Although Zhou Chuang did not pursue anything openly, because many sons of officials and officials were present that day and Zhou Jin was not the only one injured, he just found many doctors to treat the child's face, but none of them had a good effect.
That night, several people in black cloaks came to Zhou's house.
Three days later, "Yue Weiyang", which had been open in Beijing for more than ten years, closed down.
The madam was planning to sell the house and send the girls away, and was packing up now.
Suddenly, the door of "Yue Weiyang" was kicked open!
I saw a group of people coming in and without saying a word, they started smashing the building!
At the door, a lot of people soon gathered to watch the fun.
"What's the matter?"
"I don't know! Didn't they say it was about to close?"
"That's right, I saw it with my own eyes, the two black dogs were beaten to death! It seems that Yue Weiyang even paid compensation to them!"
Everyone was whispering to each other, not knowing what was going on.
The madam came out, looking angry:
"Master Xu, your brother was injured in Yue Weiyang, and we were about to close down the business. We even sent five thousand taels of silver to express our apology. Why did you bring people to smash and destroy my Yue Weiyang?"
Xu Kun, the eldest son of Xu Langze, a doctor in the Ministry of Works, sneered, stood up, and said loudly:
"Due to Yue Weiyang's poor management, my second brother was injured and could not go to school. He had to recuperate at home. What you said is really nice! Dear neighbors, boss Yue Weiyang sent 5,000 taels of silver notes to my house, saying that it was for my second brother's treatment. But when I went to the bank to exchange the silver, the bank said that the silver note was fake!"
"What? Fake!"
"Oh my god, this is the first time I've heard that there are fake banknotes!"
"That's right! It seems that cash is safer in the future!"
"All of this is fake! No, I have to go home and check if the banknote in my house is fake!"
The old procuress said in horror:
"What did you say? How can the banknotes be fake? Even if they are fake, how can you prove that they belong to Yue Weiyang? You officials cannot make false statements! Please judge for me!"
"Makes sense!"
"You can't do anything that's against your conscience, but you can't be wronged either, right?"
The crowd watching was in an uproar!
As soon as Xu Kun saw the look on the madam's face, he knew that she would not give up until she saw the Yellow River and would not cry until she saw the coffin!
"Okay! What you said makes sense! Someone come here!" After saying that, he clapped his hands.
Three people walked out of the crowd.
Xu Kun stepped forward and saluted, then introduced:
"This one is Manager Zhao of Sifang Bank, which is also the bank that exchanged this silver note for silver. The second one is Yue Weiyang's accountant, and the third one is Mr. Wang, the head of the Ministry of Revenue. All of you should be witnesses. I don't care whether there is the five thousand taels of silver or not, but Yue Weiyang's behavior is disgusting!"
The madam turned pale and pointed at Xu Kun and shouted:
"Don't lie!"
Suddenly, two officers rushed over, took her hand, pressed ink on it, and then put all five fingerprints on the paper next to it.
Afterwards, Xu Kun waved his hand, and his men brought over a lamp.
He took out the banknote, opened it, and heated it over the fire. After a while, six small dots appeared on the lower left corner of the banknote, and a thumbprint appeared on the lower right corner.
"Please identify it, Lord Wang!" Xu Kun was very polite.
The Ministry of Revenue is in charge of the country's money and grain, so it is very proficient in and knowledgeable about silver bills and fingerprints.
Lord Wang took the banknote and carefully compared it with the fingerprint on the fake banknote. Then he said with certainty: "It's not the fingerprint of this old procuress!"
"I said it wasn't me! I never thought that Mr. Xu would be such a villain! Despicable and shameless!" the madam shouted.
"Oh my god, you really wronged me!"
"Why do I feel like there's something fishy going on?"
"Hey, we don't understand the world of the rich!"
"However," Lord Wang spoke again, "I said it's not these five fingers because this fingerprint is the fingerprint of a left thumb!"
The crowd exploded again!
The two officers held the madam's left hand, dipped it in ink, and made a fingerprint on the paper next to it.
Lord Wang carefully compared them, then raised the banknote and said loudly:
"The left thumbprint on the banknote is indeed that of Yue Weiyang, the madam. Everyone should know that fingerprints are different for everyone. They cannot be faked."
Xu Kun stepped forward and said, "Please ask the two shopkeepers to come forward."
Afterwards, the two used a small magnifying glass given by the emperor to carefully look at the small black dot in the lower left corner, and there were actually words on it!
The shopkeeper stepped forward and said, "There are six characters on the name 'Xiao': Yue Weiyang, Lin Miaozi."
Everyone looked at each other and whispered, "Who is Lin Miaozi?"
"I know! This madam, this mother is called Lin Miaozi!"
Xu Kun turned around and looked at her, shaking the banknotes in his hand: "What else do you have to say!"
"I don't admit it, I didn't!"
Manager Zhao of Sifang Bank held up the fake banknote and looked at the crowd with great energy:
"Everyone, our Sifang Bank has always been honest in our work, and we will not do anything that would damage our reputation."
Afterwards, he took out a genuine silver note from the Sifang Silver Bank, pointed it towards the sun, and said loudly:
"When my Sifang Silver Bank's banknotes are held up to the sun, a colorful square will appear in the upper right corner, representing the four directions. But this fake one doesn't have that. Everyone, take a look at it."
There was a sudden cry of surprise from the crowd.
After everyone compared it, it turned out to be true!
"It's fake! So bad!"
"You have lost your conscience!"
"Please, two officers, take this cruel woman to the government office!" Xu Kun took two steps forward and spoke directly to the point.
"Master Xu, forging a banknote is a capital crime. Please allow me to enter the palace immediately and report to the emperor."
Lord Wang looked solemn. After he finished speaking, he said goodbye to everyone, took the fake banknote away, and went into the palace.
The easily overbearing Liu Feng is hidden in the crowd, with a raised mouth and a mocking look, and he actually has some of Shi Yi's demeanor~
The dust has settled, Yue Weiyang has closed its doors, Lin Miaozi has been arrested, and everything is under the control of the young lady.
At night, Liu Feng, wearing night clothes, visited "Yue Weiyang" again. This time, it was a dark "Yue Weiyang".
After finding Lin Miaozi's room, Liu Feng slipped in and closed the door.
The room was pitch dark, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.
Liufeng took out a fire starter from his pocket and looked around.
Two huge figures slowly appeared on the wall...
