Chapter 237 This move is simply too poisonous
Chatted for a few words.
Shi Qingluo asked Bai Xu: "When we went to the capital, the Wu family wanted to cause trouble for my mother-in-law and the workshop?"
Bai Xu was not surprised that she would ask: "Yes."
"Shi Laosi used the threat that the Wu family wanted to frame Brother Xiao, and his success depended on living in the Wu family."
"In addition, the old lady and others have to go to fight the autumn breeze every few days, and the Wu family is in a state of uproar."
"When you go to the capital, they think there is a loophole to exploit, so they find someone to steal the recipe from the workshop."
"But stealing prescriptions is mainly to cover up."
"The main point of the Wu family is to find an old homeless widower to attack your mother-in-law and destroy her reputation."
"If your mother-in-law is found to have a relationship with such a person secretly, her reputation will naturally be ruined, and your husband-in-law's reputation will also be damaged."
He paused and said, "In general, they just want to find a stepfather for Brother Xiao."
When they saw it, Qing Luo and Xiao Hanzheng's faces turned dark instantly.
Bai Xu immediately expressed his gratitude, "I found out about this news by accident, so people stared at me."
"Then when they were looking for people to come to the village to split up, they informed your clan leader in advance that these people wanted to steal the recipe from the workshop."
"I didn't say anything about the old widower."
"Because of this, he was regarded by the villagers in your village as someone who came to steal prescriptions, and they were sent to the county government together."
He has done good deeds, but he will not leave his name behind.
Xiao Hanzheng suppressed the coldness in his eyes and clasped his fists at Bai Xu, "Thank you very much. We will remember this favor."
He didn't expect that the Wu family could be so despicable and come up with such disgusting things.
Although he had secretly asked someone to protect his mother and younger siblings, he still couldn't help but feel scared after hearing Bai Xu's words.
If something like this really happened, given his mother's temper, she would probably have no choice but to commit suicide.
Bai Xu waved his hand, "That's not necessary. We are friends, and your mother is also my elder. I found out accidentally, so naturally I won't ignore it."
Shi Qing's face fell and became serious, "The Wu family seems to be too idle and only wants to do bad things."
This move is simply too poisonous.
She thought for a while and said to Bai Xu: "Why don't you wait until my husband-in-law finishes the exam to see if he will stay in the capital or go abroad before considering following us?"
Bai Xu probably wanted to go to the capital to expand the Bai family's business sector.
Bai Xu smiled and replied: "Even if it's a release, I will follow you."
He didn't know why, but he always felt that he would have a better future if he followed Shi Qingluo and his wife.
He trusts his feelings.
Shi Qing smiled and said, "Thank you so much for believing in us."
"But it also proves that you are very smart."
Bai Xu is quite courageous, and he is very accurate in reading people.
Bai Xu: "..." If he doesn't believe them, wouldn't he be smart?
He said dumbfounded: "Thank you for your compliment too."
Shi Qingluo asked: "In addition to dealing with us, has the Wu family taken any other actions recently?"
Bai Xu replied: "In order to prevent Mozhi County from finding trouble, they are laundering some industries."
"For example, loan sharking, human trafficking, etc."
Shi Qingluo was stunned, "They still do human trafficking?"
Bai Xu nodded without saying anything, "Yes, I only found out about it recently."
"The Wu family colluded with a group of kidnappers. Those people kidnapped children or good-looking women and gave them to the Wu family to sell."
"The Wu family doesn't sell it in Nanxi County either, and they sell it to Fucheng."
Shi Qingluo narrowed his eyes, "Does Mozhi County know?"
Bai Xu shook his head, "I don't know about this, but the Wu family is very cunning and has very secretive connections with those kidnappers."
"Unless sufficient evidence is found, there is no way to prove that there is such a cooperative relationship between them."
"The Wu family also found a way to legalize the selling of people, and they did it through a dental shop."
He added, "I have a friend whose child was abducted not long ago. He came to me and asked me to help find him."
"I asked someone to investigate carefully and found out that it has something to do with the Wu family."
He sighed and said: "But there is no evidence, just a few clues, so there is nothing we can do against the Wu family."
He reminded, "By the way, the Wu family may have to move to Fucheng. If you want to overthrow them, it's best to stay in Nanxi County."
Shi Qingluo raised his eyebrows, "Do you want to use our hands to bring down the Wu family and help your friend get the child back?"
Otherwise, why bother telling them so much.
Bai Xu was not pretentious. Not only did he admit it frankly, he also praised him, "You are so smart!"
After all, the Bai family are just businessmen, and their only big backend is still in the capital. It is too difficult to oust the Wu family as a rival.
But Shi Qingluo and his wife were different. They already had a grudge against the Wu family and had a lot of external resources they could borrow.
Of course, if the Wu family was doing serious business and competition would be through normal means, he would not think about overthrowing the other party.
But it is true that the Wu family, relying on the support of the prefect, acted too domineeringly.
Their Bai family's business in Fucheng has been severely suppressed recently, and some people have deliberately caused trouble. They have been forced to close more than half of the shops, causing serious losses.
He added: "Of course, as long as I am needed, I will also contribute."
Xiao Hanzheng said at this time, "Give us what you found, and you don't need to worry about the rest for the time being."
Originally, he was planning to overthrow the Wu family and the prefect after completing the imperial examination.
At that time, Mo Qingling had stayed in Nanxi County for more than a year. Because of the iron ore and other achievements, and the fact that there was a prince behind him to run the business, there was a good chance that he could serve as the prefect temporarily.
But the Wu family actually targeted his mother and was so vicious, so don't blame him for closing the net in advance.
"No problem, I brought what I found today." Bai Xu could see that Xiao Hanzheng was really angry.
He had always known that this handsome young man who looked as gentle as jade and looked like an upright gentleman was actually dark.
After all, he could be paired with Shi Qingluo and still be so loving, so he couldn't be a nerd.
He glanced at Xiaosi, who took out an envelope from his arms.
He took it and handed it to Xiao Hanzheng, "It's all inside."
"I suspect that whether it's usury business or human trafficking, there should be some trace of that prefect."
"The Wu family sells the abducted people in a legal way through the dental shop in Fucheng. Without someone to operate it, it would be impossible."
Xiao Hanzheng took the envelope and said, "That's for sure. Otherwise, how could a concubine have such dignity to let the prefect take such good care of the Wu family?"
Only if the interests involved are huge, will the door be opened and protected from time to time.
He asked Bai Xu: "Don't others know about this?"
Bai Xu shook his head: "I only told you and your wife."
Xiao Hanzheng nodded, "Don't tell anyone else about this, otherwise your own life will be in danger if the news leaks out."
He also knew that the Wu family was colluding with some desperadoes behind the scenes, and was involved in a lot of murder and smuggling.
