"General Qin!" County Magistrate Zheng and Li Yan said in unison.
Li Erlang: "Sir, General Qin is upright and honest. We must seize this opportunity and present the truth to General Qin, so that he can know how these merchants deceive and exploit the people, and thus help you!"
County Magistrate Zheng couldn't help but clap his hands: "With the general's men as witnesses, they can't argue no matter how hard they try!"
Immediately, County Magistrate Zheng said to Yang Dalang outside, "Prepare the car! I need to go to the West City Camp!"
After giving Yang Dalang his instructions, County Magistrate Zheng said to the two men, "You two discovered this. You two will accompany me to the main camp and report this to General Qin!"
The two did not refuse!
Soon Yang Dalang prepared the carriage: "Sir, the carriage is ready and we can set off at any time!"
County Magistrate Zheng led the two men out of the county government office. The three of them got on the carriage, which slowly drove out of the county government office and headed towards its destination.
At this time, Li Yan suggested to County Magistrate Zheng, "Sir, hearing is believing, seeing is believing. If you don't want to be rejected by General Qin, you can wait for me at Piaoxiang Tower. I will ask someone to buy two coats. It will be safer to go to General Qin with the evidence! Your Excellency will feel more confident!"
When County Magistrate Zheng heard what Li Yan said, he nodded repeatedly and said, "Then you should be more careful and don't let others find you!"
Li Yan smiled and agreed, "Don't worry, sir. My cousin is working at Piaoxianglou. I'll ask him to help me find the person when the time comes!"
The carriage stopped in front of Piaoxiang Tower. The waiter found that the visitor was actually the county magistrate, so he quickly welcomed him into the private room and then immediately informed the shopkeeper. It can be said that the waiters of wealthy families are very discerning. Once they have seen the important people in Rongcheng, their names will be deeply engraved in their minds.
When Shopkeeper Qian heard that the county magistrate was coming to visit, he ignored his work and hurried to the private room to greet him.
Li Yan found her cousin in the lobby and pulled him to a deserted corner: "Brother, I have something to ask of you!"
Li Jianmin looked at his cousin with a serious face, not caring about greeting the guests, and asked nervously: "Er Ya, what happened at home?"
Li Yan: "Don't worry, brother. Everything is fine at home. Do you know any beggars? I want to ask him for a favor!"
Li Jianmin was confused by what his cousin said and scratched his head: "There are many beggars near the restaurant. If you want a few, I will call them over for you!"
Li Yan leaned close to Li Jianmin's ear and whispered, "Brother, please help me find two beggars to go to Xiuyun Cloth Shop to buy two ready-made clothes. After buying them, give the clothes to me. I will need them for my own use! Brother, remember, this matter must be done secretly and must not be discovered by anyone!" After that, she took out a tael of silver from her arms and handed it to Li Jianmin.
Li Jianmin nodded cautiously and hurriedly did as his cousin asked.
The most common thing around the restaurant is beggars. Li Jianmin chose two smart ones from among those beggars who often came to the restaurant to beg for food.
He waved at the two of them, and the two who were called came forward excitedly: "Young man, what can I do for you?"
Li Jianmin handed the two men one tael of silver and said, "Here's the money for you. Go to Xiuyun Cloth Shop and buy me two sets of ready-made clothes. Once you've done that, come find me at the back door of Piaoxiang Tower. You two won't have to worry about food this year!"
The younger child's eyes widened when he heard this. Piaoxianglou was a very prosperous business, and beggars in the city often fought over food there. "Little brother, are you kidding?"
Li Jianmin said seriously, "You don't want to do it? Then I'll find someone else!"
The older children hurriedly stopped Li Jianmin and clapped the younger one on the head, "Brother, let's do it! Let's do it! He's just too excited, don't bother with him!"
The two men took the silver, straightened their tattered cotton coats, combed their hair, and went to Xiuyun Cloth Shop!
