After walking around, I didn't seem to see any clues.
In this house, the door of almost every room is open.
At this time, Guo Yushi walked into an open room.
It turns out that this room is where the ancestors of the Chen family lived. Of course, it is not where this person lives, but where this tablet lives.
This room is quite decent, not too big. It's just how big a place for worshiping ancestors can be.
There are also pictures hanging on the surrounding walls. These pictures are not portraits of the Chen family's ancestors, but are introductions to the tea development of this large Chen family.
It can be seen clearly that the development of this tea started from the ancestors. At the beginning, the Chen family's tea production was still very small, it was a small workshop, and the tea produced was sold as far away as this city. Later, by the time of the ancestors, the tea was produced in The tea that came out has begun to gain fame, and it has begun to expand to nearby cities. By the time of Taizu, tea had become common in a province. By the time of Great Ancestor, this tea had already begun to try to spread. Overseas and surrounding countries developed. After Chen Yuanzhi's father took over, the tea was already selling well overseas. It can be said that Chen Yuanzhi had a ready-made tea when he was born.
Judging from the dates recorded above, it has been more than four hundred years since the originator of the Chen family to Chen Yuanzhi taking over. Compared with the time when the Great Mo Dynasty was established, it is even longer than the current Mo Dynasty.
One can imagine how difficult it is to maintain the tea business under such a long period of dynasty changes.
After seeing this, he turned his eyes and happened to see the tablets of the ancestors of the Chen family.
Moreover, we can still see that one of the tablets has fallen down and is hanging. It must have been the wind that prevented the tablet from gaining a firm footing.
Seeing this, Guo Yushi took a few steps forward and carefully straightened the tablet.
Seeing the master acting like this, the butler Yin Xing said nothing.
After placing them, Guo Yushi walked out of the room, followed by the housekeeper Yin Xing.
Thinking about the memorial tablet just now and looking at the open door, Guo Yushi looked at Yin Xing: "Close this door."
"good."
The master ordered and the housekeeper Yin Xing had no choice but to do it.
After closing the door, the housekeeper Yin Xing followed the master's footsteps and walked away.
I saw that the master walked out of the house and walked towards the street.
"Master, I just walked around for a while and found nothing. Where else are you going?" Butler Yin Xing asked.
"Talk less and do more." I don't know what's wrong with Guo Yushi now. He always likes to say this to the housekeeper Yin Xing.
As soon as the master said it, Yin Xing had no choice but to do it. He stopped asking questions immediately and followed the master. He would follow him wherever he went.
"Old man, let me ask, who has the best relationship with the Chen family, the largest tea producer in Yu'an City?
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Home? " asked the censor of Zuodu.
"Chen family." The old man replied.
The old man seemed to be in his sixties, so he thought he had not asked clearly. Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, continued to ask: "Which family has the best relationship with the Chen family, which owns the largest tea plantation in the city?"
"The Chen family." The old man replied. Looking at the appearance of the person in front of him, the old man who was neither deaf nor mute explained: "You are talking about which family has the best relationship with the Chen family, which has the largest tea business in the city. ?”
Guo Yushi nodded.
"That's the Chen family. Are you from out of town? This Chen family is not the other Chen family. The girl from this Chen family married a man named Chen in the city. The two of them have the same surname."
After hearing this, Guo Yushi realized that the man in prison was named Chen Shushuang. The father was naturally named Chen, and the mother was the younger brother of Chen Yuanzhi of the Chen family, so of course she was also named Chen. Thinking of this, Guo Yushi asked for directions: "Well, where is his home now?"
The old man pointed over there: "After passing this street, turn a corner and there will be a sign with the three characters 'Taihe Xiang' written on it."
"Okay, thank you very much, old man."
"You're welcome, it's just a little effort."
Until now, when Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, came to Anfu City, all the clothes he wore were his own and he did not have official uniforms. Few people walking on the street knew that he was the censor of Zuodu and that he was a official.
Knowing the way, Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, took Yin Xing, the steward, to go there.
Just follow what he said, walk through this street, turn a corner, and look for the one with the three characters "Taihe Xiang" written on it.
At this time, they were already very close to this location. However, there were many people coming and going here, and there were many shops. This shop was a bit difficult to find.
At this time, Yin Xing, the bright-eyed butler, had already found the shop.
"Master!" Yin Xing shouted.
Guo Kang, who was looking for that position, said to Yin Xing without even looking or asking: "Talk less and do more."
Seeing the shop right in front of him, Yin Xing persisted and said, "Is that what you are looking for?"
After hearing this, Yushi Guo withdrew his eyes and looked in the direction where the housekeeper Yin Xing said. At first glance, the plaque on the shop really had the three characters "Taihe Xiang" written on it.
After seeing that, Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, walked towards the shop, followed by the steward Yin Xing.
Before I even walked in, I heard a voice coming from inside the store: "If it's too expensive, go to another store."
Guo Yushi walked in and saw the shopkeeper and his wife sitting behind the cashier. Their eyes were looking at him. There were no customers around. Only then did Guo Kang understand that when he said this, he was facing Said it myself.
"Buying tea?" the shopkeeper asked.
Guo Yushi shook his head and smiled slightly.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Before Guo Yushi could say a word, the shopkeeper became angry and said to Guo Yushi: "If you don't want to buy it, why did you step into my store?"
Guo Yushi hurriedly took out his badge and explained: "I am Zuodu Yushi. I am here to investigate the case of using the sea ban to make profits. I hope you two can cooperate."
Seeing that there was an official in front of him, and the shopkeeper had not read many books, and he did not know how old the Zuodu Yushi was, he said: "What else are you investigating? This matter was done by Magistrate Cen That’s right. You officials, on the surface, are our parents’ officials. How can these parents be so important? Not only do you bully the poor people, but also use the laws of the court to squeeze us business people for money.”
Hearing what the shopkeeper said, and looking at the hateful look in the shopkeeper's wife's eyes, Guo Yushi explained: "I am the Yushi of Zuodu. I came from the capital and was ordered by the imperial court. If this is the case, If it is true, officials who have done something wrong should be punished."
No matter how nice Guo Yushi's words were, the shopkeeper still didn't believe it, and said impatiently: "Ask whatever you want to ask, and leave as soon as you're done. When I see you officials, , I’m annoyed.”
Although Guo Kang, as the current Zuodu censor, had seen many such scenes, this was the first time he saw a commoner who was not afraid of any official.
"Chen Yuanzhi is your brother?" Guo Yushi asked the woman next to the shopkeeper.
"Yes." The woman responded.
It seems that this woman is the shopkeeper's wife.
"You two have a good relationship?" Guo Yushi asked again.
"Nonsense, if this relationship was not good, would my store be able to open? Take a look, everything in this store is not from the Chen family?" the shopkeeper said with an unhappy face.
Looking at him like this, Guo Yushi, who has a relatively good temper, can bear it. If it were another person with a bad temper, he would have to be beaten before asking.
"Is Chen Shushuang your son?" Guo Yushi asked.
This question caused the two people's expressions to change instantly.
"Where is my son now?" The shopkeeper was a little anxious, as was his wife beside him.
Thinking about the attitude of the two men towards him, Guo Yushi said bluntly: "He is now in the prison of the government office. However, I did not arrest him. It was the prefect Cen who insulted the prefect Cen in the restaurant last night."
After hearing these words, the couple panicked. Looking at the official in front of them, their attitudes suddenly changed.
"Master, please, please be accommodating and let my poor son out. He is still young and there are still many things in this world that he doesn't understand. As long as you let him out, what will you ask the common people to do?" It’s okay.” The shopkeeper begged.
"If you two really want to save this son, you have to help me." Guo Yushi said.
Shopkeeper: "You said, as long as it can be done by ordinary people, it will be fine."
Wife on the side: "Yes, you said it."
