Chapter 554: Sang Dongjia, Fortunately, He Has Done His Mission
The next day, North City.
The waiter walked to the table, put down the tray of snacks and tea, and whispered, "My Lord asked me to come and tell you that everything has been handled in Nancheng, and his identity has been confirmed without a doubt."
Zheng Erhu is indeed a distant relative of Lord Liu, but they have not had much contact in recent years and few people know about it.
Even Sang Zhixia didn't know the truth before, and only found out after Lord Liu mentioned it.
This identity was not important before, but it is different now.
The servant said subtly, "The people sent by the master said directly that Zheng Erhu was an eye who infiltrated the farm under the master's instruction, in order to cut off the source of your troubles and clamp down on you one day. Therefore, Zheng Erhu's identity is credible, and the story of his betrayal is also true."
"Currently, Zheng Erhu and his men, along with the belongings they took, are hiding in one of Peng Yuanliang's manors. Peng Yuanliang has already sent people there."
Before his identity and credibility were confirmed, Peng Yuanliang did not believe the person who came to him voluntarily for refuge.
But if we have the guarantee of Lord Liu, that would be a different matter.
Sang Zhixia breathed a sigh of relief calmly, tapping her fingertips lightly on the table: "Now that the person has arrived, then everything is settled."
In the final analysis, Zheng Erhu and his group went there to farm, and it didn't matter where they farmed.
Sang Zhixia had no other requirements for them, nor did he ask them to act as insiders and reveal any information about Peng Yuanliang to him. All he had to do was concentrate on planting the land and not waste the grain seeds that were taken away.
So even if Peng Yuanliang still has doubts about the origins of these people, it doesn't matter.
After all, these people's purpose is to move to another place to farm well, and they can't do anything else.
Let him send people to watch and investigate at will. If they find anything wrong, it will be considered that Sang Zhixia's plan is not rigorous.
Sang Zhixia quickly went over it in her mind to make sure it was correct. Hua Shan smiled and gave the waiter a purse: "Thank you for your hard work."
The waiter kept saying this, not daring to leave the box. Sang Zhixia's gaze returned to the spread-out account book: "Still no news from your young master?"
Song Liu paused in silence, then replied softly, "If there is any news, the young master will send someone here immediately. You can rest assured, sir."
Relax?
Sang Zhixia shook her head with mixed feelings, but her mind could not focus on the account book.
Xu Yu left home a month ago, and it has been a full month since then. There has been no news from him and no one knows where he is.
Although this was not the first time Xu Yu had done this, Sang Zhixia couldn't help but frown when she thought of Kyoto, which was thousands of miles away.
This month is not only a good time for spring ploughing and earth-breaking for the common people, but also a good time for hunting in the Kyoto royal enclosure.
According to what Xu Yu said before, there might be a big mess.
I don't know what's going on with Xu Yu...
Sang Zhixia absentmindedly flipped through a corner of the account book, suppressing her annoyance and speaking, "What about the county government office?"
"We've already reported it to the police, so it wouldn't be appropriate if we didn't make some noise. Is there any movement over there?"
"According to your instructions, our people went to the government office three times a day to urge him to come, but Lord Liu only sent two yamen runners to wander around the city."
Song Liu blinked expectantly after he finished speaking. "Boss, the stage here has been set up. When do you think it would be a good time to go to South City and cause trouble?"
In order to complete the trick, no matter how urgent or desperate they are, the county government will not help them find the person.
However, it is not a big problem if the police do not help. Sang Zhixia had planned the time to cause trouble from the beginning.
Sang Zhixia lowered her eyes and said calmly, "What's the rush?"
"We went through so much trouble to get the grain seeds to Peng Yuanliang. We have to wait until they've finished sowing the seeds and raising the seedlings."
If the work is messed up before it is finished, who will do the rest of the work?
Sang Zhixia was intent on saving money. She leaned back in her chair, yawned, and said lazily, "Let's wait a little longer. This will make it look like we've been looking for a long time."
"Once the work over there is done, we'll go get the help."
Taking in runaway slaves could be a big deal or a small one, but taking in a hundred or so at once was another matter.
Even though Peng Yuanliang is wealthy and powerful, and he believes that he has won over many supporters in the northwest, if such a thing gets out of hand, he will not be able to bear the consequences.
There must be fear.
Song Liu thought about the scene that would happen soon and smiled slyly: "He just helped out. If he just handed the person over like that, Peng Yuanliang would have no chance of gaining a good reputation for charity in the northwest."
"If you don't hand over the person, you have to pay."
Whatever a person's worth is, that's how much he should be paid.
Peng Yuanliang suffered the loss first, so it is not impossible for them to use the evidence to ask for an exorbitant price.
Sang Zhixia showed a teachable smile, and said with a sigh: "It must be said, Boss Peng is really generous."
"This money has been spent like a sea, and you still want to put some of it into my pocket."
After saying this, Sang Zhixia felt a little embarrassed.
Everyone in the room chuckled when they heard this. Sang Zhixia's eyes were full of joking: "Anyway, don't worry. Let's get busy with the farm work while the season is good."
"Have you sent back all the rice seeds you got two days ago?"
Ling Chu, who was in charge of this matter, said softly, "Send it back."
"When the grain seeds were delivered, Yungui said nothing. He was busy distributing and sowing the seeds."
"Wang Jie did ask where it came from. I vaguely said that you managed to buy it from somewhere else. Although it's not as good as the ones produced on our farm, it can meet the urgent need."
This batch of grain seeds was extra left by Sang Zhixia in preparation for emergencies.
Changing the name is also to avoid arousing suspicion.
After all, in addition to helping Peng Yuanliang to clean up the thousands of acres of reclaimed wasteland, the fertile soil on his own farm cannot be left to waste.
Who would complain about the excessive rice waves during the autumn harvest?
but……
Sang Zhixia thought of the two remaining managers of the fruit farm, and her eyes darkened. "There's something fishy about at least one of them. Keep a close eye on them and see who that rat is."
If she ever finds an opportunity to catch this rat by the tail, she can't be blamed for being ruthless.
In order to free up the farm to catch mice, Sang Zhixia found an excuse not to go back and stayed in the city temporarily.
Even though I’m away from home, my mind always wanders away involuntarily.
I don't know if the two little ones at home have been well behaved these past few days, and...
"Boss, someone is coming over there."
Sang Zhixia's eyes flashed, and she straightened her back slightly and said, "Please bring the person in."
Song Liu went to pick up the person in person.
The man was dressed like a passing businessman and had a dusty air about him.
After entering the box, he closed the door first, then took off the loose coat that covered his head and face, revealing his tired brows and eyes. He stood still and bowed respectfully to Sang Zhixia: "Master Sang, I am glad to have fulfilled your mission."
