Chapter 142 Four Great Families

Er Niu stared at the pillar and didn't speak for a long time.

"Shopkeeper Li, please spare me! You really don't blame me! I can't deal with those people at all!" Zhuzi said with snot and tears.

"My cargo is leather and medicine, but it's worth thousands of taels of silver! Is it gone?" Er Niu said with a gloomy face and gritted his teeth.

Du Yong was at a loss for a while, not knowing what to say.

Zhu Zi even lowered his head, wiping away his tears one by one.

"You're going to pay us!" Erniu said coldly.

"What? Let me pay? My whole family is sold and I can't afford it. Huh!" Zhuzi jumped up and shouted.

"This is the way of doing business. If you buy our goods, it will be gone if you say no?" Er Niu had a cold face, and there was no room for negotiation.

"I'll just earn you a few taels of silver, how do you want me to pay?" Zhu Zi also became angry.

"Brother Zhuzi! We have agreed that you will pay for missing goods, and we will pay you a lot for your feet!" Er Niu said with a straight face.

When Zhu Zi heard it, he wilted again.

"I'm not going to make things difficult for you. I'll put the blame on you first. If you catch the thief, you don't have to pay. If you can't catch him, then I'm sorry!" Er Niu softened his tone a little.

There was a little joy on Zhu Zi's face, and then disappeared.

Du Yong suddenly realized that he was going to get to know this dude again.

At a young age, he is really a businessman. When it comes to doing business, the six relatives don't recognize each other. This kind of character may be a good thing, or it may be a bad thing.

"Brother Er Niu, quickly think of a way to catch the thief, and let other things go first." Du Yong persuaded.

"Du Dage, I'm afraid this batch of goods can only be shipped so much first, and we will compensate you for the loss. Let me first say sorry to Dage." Er Niu said apologetically.

"This is something for later, we'll talk about it later, it's more important to catch the culprit first." Du Yong said with a wave of his hand.

"Zhuzi, hurry up and report to Zhangmu Village and tell my elder brother. Also, in which direction did the thief go?" Er Niu said sharply.

"Yes! Yes! Yes! I'll go back to the village right away, but the thief ran west." Zhuzi replied.

"Du Dage, please go back to Puji Hall and tell me, I'll go west to look for it." Er Niu said to Du Yong again.

"Okay, be careful!" Du Yong exhorted.

Er Niu nodded, stepped on the horse, turned the horse's head, and chased west.

After chasing for a few miles, I found the carriage parked on the side of the road, but the carriage was empty and there was no cargo left.

Back to Puji Hall sullenly, it was already dark.

Du Yong didn't leave, he was still waiting in Puji Hall.

Seeing that Erniu came back with an empty car, Du Yong shook his head lightly and sighed.

"Brother Er Niu, don't worry, sit down and have a rest, drink some tea!" Du Yong said.

"Let Du Dage worry about it!" Er Niu's expression was not good, and he grabbed the teacup and took a sip.

Wu Fengyan, Bu Jun, and Fan Xiaowen also knew about it. Looking at Er Niu's face, no one dared to speak out.

"Brother Er Niu, are you hungry? Eat first." Wu Fengyan said softly.

"Okay! Erniu brother, you eat first, I have something to do, so don't bother me!" Du Yong stood up, ready to leave.

"Dage, don't leave! I have something to ask!" Er Niu stopped Du Yong.

Wu Fengyan served two dishes and two jugs of wine, and with a wink, she retreated with Bu Jun and Fan Xiaowen.

"Dage, here's a toast!" Er Niu raised his glass and said.

"Come on! Surprise me brother!" Du Yong also picked up his wine glass.

However, he really admired him in his heart, this Er Niu, after such a big incident, has not messed up his position, he is really a talent.

"Dage, you Sanyi have been doing business on this island for many years, how do you usually deal with these thieves?" Er Niu asked.

Du Yong didn't answer, he picked up his glass and didn't drink for a while.

"Dage just said if it's convenient, and if it's not convenient, just pretend I didn't ask." Er Niu saw Du Yong's embarrassment.

"Okay! Let me talk about this business matter." Du Yong drank the wine in his glass and finally spoke.

"Please enlighten me, Dage!" Er Niu Gong cupped his hands.

"This Qichuan Island has always been controlled by the four big families of Jiang, Lin, Huang, and Meng. The owners of the island are also people from the four big families. They change every three years and take turns to sit on the manor. Now the owner of the island is a member of the Meng family.

Specifically speaking of Changqing City, the Lin family controls the general business in the market. The Jiang family controlled the government, and the Huang family controlled the port and transportation. The Meng family specializes in Talismans and Magical Items. ...

You have been robbed on the road now, go to Huang's house and ask, maybe there will be some news. "

After Du Yong finished talking, he stopped drinking, got up and left.

Er Niu didn't stop him any more, and drank a couple of sips of mulled wine by himself, then sat there and pondered over it.

After dark, the tiger also came in a hurry on a fast horse.

"Second Junior Brother, do you have any clues?" Dui asked anxiously as soon as he entered the door.

Er Niu shook his head with a wry smile.

"Okay! Dare to grab our things and break his dog legs!" Du Hu said angrily.

"Eldest brother, don't worry! Sit down and have a sip of tea first." Er Niu poured a cup of tea.

After Dahu drank a few cups of tea and calmed down a little, Erniu repeated what Du Yong had just said.

After hearing this, Du Hu was stunned for a long time and said, "That's interesting. The emperor doesn't even have such a big place. It's the first time I've heard that the four families take turns to sit in the manor."

"Yes! No one can control anyone. But according to Du Dage, we are going to pay homage to the Huang family."

"Okay! We are outsiders, so it's normal to be bullied a little bit." Dumb agreed, but his expression was not good.

The next morning, Duhu and Erniu prepared some gifts, sealed another hundred taels of silver, and went to visit Huang's house.

The Huang family is located in the east of Changqing City, near the port, and it is also a large house covering an area of ​​tens of acres.

The door of Huang's house was closed tightly, and there was a servant standing at the door.

Seeing Dahu and Erniu coming, he asked loudly, "Hey! What are you doing?"

"Brother, we are from Pujitang, and we came here to visit Patriarch Huang." Er Niu said with a smile.

While talking, he handed over the gift list, and handed over a piece of silver to the servant.

The servant weighed the money in his hand, smiled and said, "Wait, I'll go in and report!"

After a while, the servant ran out again, handed the gift list to Er Niu, and said, "I'm sorry, the master is not free today, come back another day!"
