Zhao Teng didn't know what he was thinking there and kept silent.
Seeing Zhao Teng's hesitation, Li Shui called to Li Xin and said, "Let's go."
At the same time, he said to the craftsmen next to him: "We are a small business. We must recover the debt today. If we cannot recover it, don't come back."
Several craftsmen shouted: "Yes!"
Zhao Teng, who was still thinking of countermeasures, was frightened. Seeing that Huaiguzi was about to leave, he quickly stopped him.
Zhao Teng rubbed his hands in embarrassment and said to Li Shui: "Is what you just said true?"
Li Shui said seriously: "As a banished immortal, naturally everything I say is true. I never tell lies."
Zhao Teng curled his lips and thought: Have you told too many lies?
Li Shui said to Zhao Teng: "If Brother Zhao hasn't thought about it well, I will go back first. Brother Zhao will think about it slowly."
Zhao Teng said anxiously: "Don't lie to me."
Li Shui nodded sincerely to Zhao Teng.
Later, people from the Neishi Mansion handed Lu Yi over to Li Shui.
Along the way, Zhao Teng was thinking about what Wu would do.
If the punishment is severe, Lord Qi will lose face; if the punishment is light, it may make His Majesty displeased.
Zhao Teng had a headache. It would be much easier if Wu Shi could also pay a fine. Like Li Shui, Mr. Qi could take Wu Shi away and save himself a lot of trouble.
If you think about it carefully, this Wu family did not commit murder or arson, it just infringed the patent rights. Although it received more dividends, after all, it was its own investment, so there is nothing wrong with it.
Besides, the patent that was infringed belongs to Huaiguzi. He has so many patents, it doesn’t matter if one or two are infringed. If it is really true, it only shows that Huaiguzi’s pattern is too small.
Zhao Teng had already made a plan at this time to confiscate Wu's remuneration for running the tavern and order a fine of 500,000 yuan.
Mr. Qi is a man who cares about face, and he will not let his wife live in prison.
Zhao Teng took Wu Shi directly to the Neishi Mansion. As soon as he got off the carriage, he saw Master Qi waiting at the door.
Zhao Teng felt happy. Whatever he thought of, the money-giver came.
Zhao Teng smiled and cupped Master Qi's hands, pretending to be curious and said: "Master Qi, why are you here?"
Mr. Qi did not smile and said: "Mr. Zhao, you are asking knowingly."
"While I'm not here in Xianyang City for the past two days, Mr. Zhao is so majestic."
Zhao Teng asked in confusion: "Why did Mr. Qi say this?"
Mr. Qi said: "I am going back to my hometown today. I heard from my servant that Mr. Qi took my wife to meet His Majesty early in the morning."
Zhao Teng nodded and said: "I thought you knew about this, but it turns out that I just found out what's wrong with you as an adult."
Master Qi snorted coldly and said, "Master Zhao, you don't need to worry about the household affairs in my house."
"Take care of yourself. I heard that people from Shangjun's Courtyard will come to your house if they want money."
Zhao Teng was not angry and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about the household affairs in your house, I think so."
"Master Qi, please don't forget that your majesty asked me to investigate the mysterious death of your housekeeper. Until the case is found out, everyone in your house will be suspected."
"Including Wu Shi." It happened that Wu Shi was coming down from above, Zhao Teng pointed at Wu Shi and said to Mr. Qi.
Mr. Qi saw that the always graceful Wu was now listless and exhausted, as if he had gone through a long interrogation.
Yes, after all, we are in front of His Majesty, and a little carelessness may lead to death. qs
Master Qi gritted his teeth and said to Zhao Teng: "Zhao Teng, you are so cruel, you took my wife to see His Majesty without saying a word."
Zhao Teng said: "Don't get me wrong, it was your wife who asked me to take her to meet His Majesty."
Lord Qi said angrily: "It's not that you don't know the stakes here, you just did it on purpose."
"Anyway, it will benefit you without any harm. If Sophora Millet is reprimanded, it will be good for you. If Sophora Millet is not reprimanded, you will have no harm."
"Zhao Teng, your calculations are really deep."
Zhao Teng asked Mr. Qi to point it out. His face was dull when he was told, but there was nothing he could do.
Mr. Qi walked to Wu Shi and said, "Are you okay?"
Wu shook his head and said, "Wu is not in the way."
Master Qi said coldly to Zhao Teng: "Are you going to take my wife to the Neishi Mansion? Does it mean that she will be imprisoned?"
Zhao Teng cleared his throat and said, "Master Qi, your wife has made huge profits, infringed on patents, and secretly sold fake fairy wine."
"Do you think this crime is enough to warrant a three-day trip to jail?"
Mr. Qi didn't say anything. He knew that it was probably His Majesty's intention.
At this time, Zhao Teng deliberately lowered his head and said with a smile: "However, it is not impossible."
Master Qi suddenly asked anxiously: "Is there any other way?"
Zhao Teng whispered: "You can pay the fine and avoid jail."
Mr. Qi grabbed Zhao Teng's sleeve and said, "I hand it over, let my wife go quickly."
Zhao Teng said: "Then please ask Mr. Qi to call up the expenses. The total is five hundred thousand dollars."
Lord Qi let go of Zhao Teng's sleeves and asked in surprise: "Fifty thousand dollars? Are you robbing money?"
Zhao Teng said: "Master Qi, don't get me wrong, this money will eventually be confiscated and will not go into my pocket.
"Besides, why do you have to pay so much? It's because of the different identities."
At this time, the attendant next to Mr. Qi whispered: "Sir, at the gate of the palace just now, that Lu Yi was ordered to pay a fine by Huaiguzi and took it away."
Mr. Qi frowned and said, "How much did you pay?"
The servant raised a finger and Master Qi said: "Ten thousand dollars, I can afford it."
The servant hurriedly said: "Sir, it's one hundred thousand dollars."
Mr. Qi asked in surprise: "One Lu Yi has to pay one hundred thousand yuan. What's the point? Isn't he the owner of the tavern?"
Zhao Teng smiled and said: "Shopkeeper? He is not just a shopkeeper, he is also responsible for brewing wine. He is a technical talent. Otherwise, how could he be favored by Huaiguzi?"
"A person as stingy as Huaiguzi, how can he spend money to save someone if the other person doesn't have anything?"
Mr. Qi regrets very much why he didn't see it at first. If he had seen it earlier, he would have been the capable person beside him.
Mr. Qi said to Zhao Teng: "Just tell me, how much does it cost, I can take my wife away."
Zhao Teng deliberately thought for a moment that if he answered too quickly, it would make Master Qi feel like he had already planned to extort money from him.
Zhao Teng slowly stretched out five fingers.
Mr. Qi was very happy. A mere fifty thousand dollars was nothing. He even had the urge to get angry with Zhao Teng because how could his wife be worth only fifty thousand dollars.
Mr. Qi greeted his servants and said, "Go and get 50,000 yuan and send it to the Neishi Mansion and give it to Mr. Zhao."
The servant responded.
Zhao Teng quickly stopped and said, "Brother Qi, what are you thinking? How could your lady only pay 50,000 yuan? It's 500,000 yuan."
Master Qi cursed angrily: "Five hundred thousand? Zhao Teng, do you believe it or not? I will go to your majesty to file a complaint against you right now."
"His Majesty will definitely not let you off lightly if you increase the risk privately and accept bribes."
