Chapter 517 Killing three birds with one stone
Han Mo occasionally walked around the yard and occasionally went into the dice-roll room to watch the fun. Some people even shouted that Han Mo would take a gamble, but Han Mo just smiled and shook his head.
Han Mo had done gambling when he was in the East China Sea, but these brothers were very gambled at this time. It seemed that Han Mo had no stimulation at all, so he naturally wouldn't join in the fun.
Hongxiu sat on a stone chair in a corner of the yard, closing her eyes to rest. This woman seemed to be a stone, and her indifference sometimes almost makes people ignore her existence.
The afterglow of the sunset shines in the yard, and the bamboo shadows sway.
But when he heard footsteps, Han Mo saw an old man in his fifties coming in from the front, his smile on his face was extremely kind. Behind him, he was as proud as Manager Song and others.
Han Mo narrowed his eyes and saw Manager Song approaching the old man's ear and whispering a few words. Then he pointed to Han Mo. The old man smiled slightly, walked up quickly, bowed to Han Mo: "I Guan Mu!"
Han Mo looked at Guan Mu for a while before bowing, "I've seen the big shopkeeper!"
Guan Mu smiled and said, "Please follow me!" Without saying much, he walked to the main house of Siheyuan, took out the key, opened the copper lock, and went into the door. Han Mo did not neglect, and followed Guan Mu into the room. Guan Mu closed the door.
Manager Song looked at Han Mo going in and turned around and said to several of his friends: "You are going to bite me to death. If you look back, you may not be sure that guys like Shen Laosan will argue for those two bastards!"
"Don't worry, you're in charge. With the support of the shopkeeper, I will definitely cut off these two guys this time!"
They whispered in a low voice, but did not see that Hongxiu, who was in the corner of the yard, had already opened her eyes. Her beautiful eyes, with cold eyes, glanced at these guys.
...
Han Mo followed Guan Mu into the house. This was the main house of the courtyard, which was divided into the inner room of the main hall. Guan Mu led Han Mo into the inner room and confirmed that the doors and windows were closed tightly. Then he bowed to Han Mo and said with a smile: "Didn't you ask for the name of the surname? I heard that you have a jade plaque in your hand, I wonder if it is true?"
Han Mo knew that Guan Mu would help him in many things next. If he wanted to cooperate, he would show sincerity from the beginning, take out the jade token from his arms and hand it to Guan Mu, "Look at the big shopkeeper!"
Guan Mu took the jade token carefully and looked very carefully. He finally returned it to Han Mo. After Han Mo put it away, Guan Mu's face, which seemed to be smiling forever, immediately showed a solemn look, and bowed: "The jade token is in his hand, and he is his family!"
Han Mo smiled and said, "The shopkeeper... don't doubt the authenticity of the jade plaque?"
Guan Mu said seriously: "The product is real and there will never be any fake. Shaohe can hand over the jade to you. I think it is because he trusts you very much, so... you can also trust me Guan Mu completely!"
Han Mo looked at Guan Mu with a solemn expression, and his eyes were extremely sincere. He sighed in his heart and asked, "Can the shopkeeper... can you tell that this is Shaohe's jade plaque?"
Guan Mu smiled, "I have three-sided jade plaques in Guan's trading business. Yan State is Shaohe, Feng State is my husband. The authenticity of the jade plaques cannot be seen by outsiders, but I can still see them." After a pause, he added, "Every jade plaque is close to his body, and it is impossible for anyone to steal... Since you come to Feng State with the jade plaque, you must have something to do, and you need Guan Mu's help, so... If you have any instructions, Guan Mu will definitely help you with all your strength!"
Han Mo didn't say much, and took out the letter Guan Shaohe gave him from his arms and handed it to Guan Mu. Guan Mu took the letter, looked at the envelope, and smiled and said, "It was indeed written by Shaohe himself!" Seeing Han Mo standing alone, he hurriedly said, "Please sit down!"
After the two of them sat down, Guan Mu immediately opened the envelope, took out the letter, and looked at it carefully.
He only looked at the envelope before and it was very certain that it was written by Guan Shaohe. It really made Han Mo stunned for a moment, but in just an instant, Han Mo realized that there must be a special mark on the envelope that outsiders could not see, but the people inside them could see it at a glance. It was precisely because of this that Guan Mu could instantly see that it was written by Guan Shaohe.
Han Mo immediately understood that there must be a complete set of codes and means of communicating secret letters between the Guan family trade banks, which can also be reflected that the Guan family trade bank is definitely responsible for intelligence work.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered the account book that Yan Xueji gave him. It was the secret account book of the He family, which recorded the businesses distributed everywhere in the He family. Naturally, those businesses could not be compared with the Guan family's trading bank, but they were also a large intelligence force. It seemed that it was necessary to bring this force under the leadership as soon as possible to form a secret intelligence network.
Guan Mu looked at it very carefully. Soon, he took out the fire note from his waist, ignited the fire note, and burned the letter and the envelope cleanly. Then he stared at Han Mo and bowed, "So you are... Well, don't worry, I already understand Shaohe's meaning!"
Han Mo knew that he had known his identity, so he bowed: "The shopkeeper can call me Xiaoshui, everything is up to you!"
Guan Mu pondered for a moment, as if he remembered something, and said, "Xiaoshui, isn't anyone in the team knowing your identity?"
"No!" Han Mo whispered: "Except for one subordinate who came with me!"
Guan Mu nodded, "Your identity is extraordinary, you must be cautious." He paused, narrowed his eyes and said, "Song Jiao and others, what are you going to do about it?"
"What do they want to do?" Han Mo knew that Song Jiao was the manager Song, so he couldn't help but ask indifferently.
"You are a bandit who disguised yourself as a trade agency, and asked me to take you to drink and drink medicine at night to fascinate you and take it back to Yanjing tomorrow!" Guan Mu touched his beard and smiled faintly: "But I guess, if you really want to do this, you will be killed by accident halfway, and you will definitely not return to Yanjing!"
In an understatement, Guan Mu knew Manager Song’s conspiracy.
Han Mo sighed: "It's very cruel!"
Guan Mu smiled slightly and said, "Xiaoshui, you have a special identity. To avoid doubt, you want to have a scene with me!"
...
Manager Song and others waited in the yard for a long time, but Guan Mu and Han Mo came out. They couldn't help but feel uneasy. At the beginning, the pride of the first gradually disappeared.
Shen Laosan was also gambling in the house. He saw Manager Song and others rushing in with great momentum. Then Guan Mu even called Han Mo into the house alone, and a feeling of uneasiness arose in his heart.
He had no intention of continuing to gamble, but just stared at the closed door of the main room. After a long time, he finally saw Guan Mu leading Han Mo out. He felt even more nervous and spoke up to remind others. When everyone heard his reminder, they all looked into the yard.
Manager Song saw that Guan Mu came out, and even saw Han Mo's calm expression. There was even a faint smile on his handsome face, and he suddenly felt something was wrong.
Before Shen Laosan knew it, he had already come out of the house and stood in front of the door. When the others saw something strange, they all stopped gambling and surrounded them in front of the door.
Everyone knew that Han Mo and Manager Song had a deep grudge. Many people along the way were thinking about what kind of scene would happen here. When they saw Guan Mu appear, they immediately felt that there was a chance to watch.
Most of the people in this world are mortals living in the world, and they are naturally fond of watching the fun.
Seeing that Guan Mu still had a kind smile on his face, Manager Song couldn't help but go forward and bowed, "Big shopkeeper..."
Guan Mu stared at Manager Song and smiled faintly, "Manager Song, are you saying... this person is a bandit?" After that, he pointed at Han Mo.
Manager Song was a little surprised when he saw Guan Mu speak it in public, but the arrow was on the string and had to be fired. At this time, there was no need to hide it. "The big shopkeeper is him. Our trading company has no agency in the name of Shui. The jade plaque in this guy must have been stolen. He is conspiring and he should not be deceived by his sweet words. The carriage with hundreds of taels of silver was stolen by him and his accomplices!"
The friends behind him immediately felt refreshed when they saw Guan Mu smiling kindly and said, "Big Shopkeeper, we can testify that the goods were stolen by them."
Seeing this, Shen Laosan hesitated for a moment and was about to testify for Han Mo, but saw Han Mo smiling and shaking his head. There was a calmness on his handsome face. Shen Laosan saw Han Mo's smile, for some reason, and he felt at ease.
Guan Mu waved his hand and signaled everyone to calm down, then said in a deep voice: "You may not know him, I will tell you who he is now. This water agent is my husband's nephew... His real name is Guan Shui. This time he came with the team, and he came here to help me do business together. Another reason is to investigate the loss of goods."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone opened their mouths wide and was very surprised.
Manager Song and others were ashamed, while Shen Laosan and others were very happy, and as for those who had received favor from Han Mo, the escorts who were involved in the fun were nothing more than a small surprise.
Shen Laosan was truly happy. He carefully held Han Mo's thighs along the way. Although Han Mo was a businessman at a young age, he was a little confused, but he recognized Han Mo's identity as an extraordinary person. At this time, Guan Mu said, his doubts were resolved. Since he was Guan Mu's nephew, he was a member of the Guan family, who belonged to the main family of the Guan family's trade business. Although he was young, he also showed his all-round talent along the way. It was not strange that such a person had a jade plaque in his hand.
Manager Song was ashamed and sweated coldly. Thinking that he had proposed to Guan Mu to capture Han Mo before, but he didn't know that this young man was Guan Mu's nephew. Not only did he become a mortal enemy with Han Mo, but he even offended Guan Mu, so there would definitely be no good next time.
Sure enough, I saw Guan Mu's gentle face suddenly turning a solemn, and said in a deep voice: "In recent years, there have been always been one or two missing goods every year for some reason. Moreover, you, Manager Song, can find out the culprit of stealing goods. I have always been very strange about this. Isn't every friend who comes to Fengguo to deliver goods? Manager Song, your methods are very inferior, but you are for me after all.
Guan’s Trade Bank has been doing so many years, and we don’t go into some things. This time, my nephew Guan Shui’s main purpose is to come to Fengguo to help me do business. As for investigating theft of goods, it’s just a matter of doing it. If you are honest this time, you’ll probably forget it. But you collude with the inn in private and steal goods, and even falsely accused Guan Shui… Manager Song, you will never refuse to admit these things, right?”
Manager Song was sweating profusely and his whole body became a little weak.
"Although you are a clerk in Beijing, you are a member of the Guan Trade Company. As the shopkeeper of the Guan Trade Company, I am qualified to punish you." Guan Mu said slowly: "It is even more unfair to be in prison and slander others... Hehe, Manager Song, you are really capable. Come and take them all down!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several Fengguo Trade Company officers rushed up from the courtyard. One of them was tall and strong. He came forward and held down General Manager Song and his four confidants.
The staff at the Fengguo Guan Trade Company were all carefully selected people. They were not only flexible in mind, but also strong in body and were extremely good at fighting. Although the several staff members under Manager Song were also very strong, the injuries he suffered from the last time he was taught by Han Mo and Hongxiu had not fully recovered and he was not very neat. In addition, how could they dare to resist and be subdued easily in this situation.
Guan Muyou asked someone to tie these guys up and said in a deep voice: "The state has its own laws, the family has its own rules, and our trade bank also has its own regulations. You are in prison and even slandering good people. According to the rules of our trade bank, each person will whip twenty whips... and beat me hard!"
Several friends had already taken out the whip. They were all long whips with animal skins and were soaked in water. They were headless and whipped at Manager Song and others. The whip had extremely strong damage. Many Feng Guoren used this whip as a weapon. When the whip was whipped, the clothes were broken and the skin was blooming, and a deep blood mark was obviously appearing.
Manager Song was howling, but his whip was ruthlessly whipped. In just a moment, two friends were beaten to the ground and could not move. Manager Song even rolled his eyes and almost died.
Manager Song bullies the weak on weekdays, and his confidants are even more colluding with each other. He is whipped by a whip at this time, which is really satisfying. Shen Laosan and others want to go forward and beat them in person.
Han Mo stood behind Guan Mu with his hands on his back, looking at the old man who looked very kind when he smiled, but he felt a little admiration for this old man.
Don’t think you just deal with this matter at will, but it’s a three-killing victory.
First of all, he naturally established his power and expressed the clear punishment of Guan's trade deal. Secondly, he claimed that Han Mo was his nephew, so that everyone had previously had all the suspicion, avoiding everyone's suspicion about Han Mo's identity, and saving a lot of trouble. Finally, he even gave Han Mo a small gift, which was like venting his anger for Han Mo.
Three wins in one go!
The little old man looked kind and smiled, but when dealing with things, he was decisive and neat, without any delay. Han Mo could only sigh in his heart: "Ginger is still so spicy!"
