Chapter 150 Big Family and Great Business
The next morning, Lu Biaotou followed Miss Su to Lin Mansion to pick up the young master Long Yifei.
When they arrived at the Lin Mansion, the uncle and nephew met, they hugged their heads and cried bitterly on the spot. Especially when Long Yifei learned that the Long family was also suffering from misfortune, they were even more in pain and cried to death.
Shanshan and the Lin brothers tried their best to comfort Mr. Long, but finally made Mr. Long calm down. Finally, Shanshan followed Lu Biaotou and Mr. Long back to Long Mansion. The two people who were ill and pitiful were even more sympathetic and hard to part with each other.
Lu Piaotou regained his only bloodline for the Long family and continued the incense of the Long family. He was very pleased. In order to revive the Long family escort agency, he tried his best to persuade Young Master Long to cheer up, inherit his father's ambition, rebuild the family business, and rebuild the glory of the Long family.
With the help of Lu Biaotou and Shanshan, Long Yifei gradually cheered up. He entrusted Lu Biaotou and Shanshan's sister to help him rebuild the Longsheng Escort Agency.
Tianlang interrogated the butler surnamed Mou brought back from the Su family. He learned that the butler was originally followed by Fang, not the butler of the Su family. He didn't know much about the situation and was not very clear about when the Su family's property would be lost. So he put him back and sent someone to inquire about the original butler of the Su family.
After the Su family's accident, Mrs. Fang moved into the Su family's mansion and dispersed the original Su family's managers and servants, and brought some people himself or recruited some again.
After a while of inquiring, the officers and soldiers of the patrol battalion finally found Chen Xiangdong, the former butler of the Su family. However, the butler Chen seemed to be very uncooperative with the government and was unaware of it. Tianlang had no choice but to invite Miss Su Mingshan, the eldest daughter of the Su family.
As soon as he saw Miss Su, the old butler of the Su family immediately burst into tears, knelt in front of Shanshan, hugged Shanshan's legs and cried, "Miss, Miss, I finally saw you, the sky has eyes!"
After the housekeeper Chen gradually calmed down, he began to state: "My master should have foreseeed what was about to happen in advance. A few days before the incident, he specially ordered me to modify the will and leave half of the Su family's property to the young daughter Shan'er, and the other half to the two sons and two wives of the Su family. He only distributed a house built in the capital to the Mrs. Fang, so she did not have the right to settle in the head of the Su family, but because she colluded with the official family, and furthermore, the whereabouts of Miss Su were not found for a while, so I did not show this will to others, because I was afraid of angering her and taking the blame on the lady."
"Mr. Chen, what industries does the Su family operate? Is there anything to do with the imperial court?" Tianlang asked.
"The Su family has been a businessman for several generations and has accumulated a lot of money, especially when it came to the generation of Mr. Su Guoyi and Master Su, they were already a giant in the capital and rich. The Su family owned more than 100 tickets, silver shops, and grain stores in Daxing. It opened a large metallurgical workshop outside the southern suburbs of the capital. It has been working with the Ministry of Works to provide various weapons manufacturing for the Daxing court. Since the war with Qifan, this alone has brought huge income to the Su family."
Tianlang thought that it was indeed related to the Ministry of Works, and the manufacturing of weapons for the court was involved in the smuggling of weapons by Qifan, which were the key to the problem.
"Mr. Chen, when did the woman surnamed Fang marry into the Su family?" Tianlang asked again.
"It was three days before the incident that this lady forced Mr. Su to get a hiring and get married. Before she could get married, something happened."
After hearing this, Tianlang thought in his heart: The three days before the Su family incident was the second day of the Long family tragedy. Mrs. Fang was so anxious that she seemed to know that the Su family would suffer such a problem, so she couldn't wait to get her status in advance.
"Do you know that the Su family's property was stolen? When did it be stolen?" Tianlang asked again.
"This is what the government said. This stolen property was originally a betrothal gift from Mr. Su to Mr. Fang. It was originally delivered to Mrs. Fang on the day of the incident. However, since it was the death day of the ancestors of the Su family, it was not moved. Later, it was stolen by the robbers." Mr. Chen said.
"There were no robbers and no property stolen. On the night of the incident, I witnessed everything on the scene. The murderer did not take any property at all. These property must have been transferred away later." Shanshan said to Butler Chen with great certainty.
"Ah? Why is this?" Butler Chen asked in confusion.
"The transfer of property afterwards was to cover up the intention of the murderer, and just caused the bandit to enter the house to kill people in order to seize money. It seems that Mrs. Fang is very suspicious and must know the inside story of the murderer, and may even participate in it." Tianlang analyzed that he turned to Butler Chen and said, "Mr. Chen, you should just take away Mr. Su's will first and don't come forward. After I send someone to find out the main murderer and the related person in the case, you will be asked to make public announcements by the public."
Tianlang immediately sent people to monitor the Su family and asked two soldiers to take advantage of the Su family's recruitment of servants everywhere, and invade the Su family by applying for the pseudonym and report it at any time.
On this side, Zixia, Zuo Dian and others also went to Tianlang to report to him about the investigations in recent days, but they found almost nothing. It seemed that finding the Jikong Taoist priest back then was like looking for a needle in the sea, and Tianlang had no idea for a moment.
Tianlang then remembered Lu Dingshan Lu Biaotou. This man wandered around the world and lived in the capital for decades. The sources of information were very wide. Maybe he could find something from him. Thinking of this, Tianlang immediately asked someone to invite Lu Biaotou.
As soon as Lu Biaotou entered the Admiral's Mansion, he couldn't wait to complain: "Brother Tianlang, please hurry up and invite the eldest lady of the Su family to leave. She is going to defeat the Long family."
"Oh, what's going on?" Tianlang asked.
"Oh," Lu Piaotou sighed and said, "This girl is amazing, she is so capable. She helped my Young Master Long rebuild the escort agency, and Young Master Long obeyed her words. Who knew that she was running an escort agency and was simply opening a charity hall."
"The girl from the Su family first asked someone to buy more than 100 good horses from Qifan, and then sent hero posts everywhere to recruit escorts. Unexpectedly, people from all walks of life, all came to the door, and she refused to refuse all of them. Now the escort agency has not opened business, but it has raised nearly 300 escorts and escorts. In addition, those who raise horses, sweepers, cook, and messy people have also hired hundreds of people. She is about to lose all the business of the Long family." Lu Pao Head shook his head and continued.
"Ha, ha, ha." Tianlang laughed when he heard him say this, "It's not good for someone to make the escort agency busy. You don't have to pay too much attention after spending some money."
"Ah? You said you can get lightweight, such a big stall and so many people, the family business accumulated by generations of the Long family cannot withstand such troubles." Lu PaoTou said anxiously.
"Brother Lu, you're over-thinking. Tell you, this Miss Su family is very ordinary. She will soon be the heir to the Su family's industry. The Su family is a wealthy family that is as rich as a country. The Long family's property is not in her eyes. You don't have to feel heartbroken anymore. Just let her go and make trouble. When Miss Su inherits the Su family's industry, she is interested in raising an army of thousands of people, which is not a problem at all." Tianlang said with a smile.
"No wonder she is so rich and powerful, but I have never seen such a scene." Lu Biaotou said angrily.
"Brother Lu, I'm asking you here today because I have something else to ask for advice." Tianlang said after interrupting Lu Biaotou.
