Chapter 1022
After talking to Wei Wu, Zhu Zongshan did not stay any longer. He got up and went back to continue handling his official business.
Wei Wu continued to sit in the court and drink tea, after all, his business was not finished yet.
After sitting like this for less than half an hour, Zhang Hai brought the second group of people back to the yamen and found Wei Wu in the court.
"Master, I also brought back the people from the Xiong family. Unfortunately, I didn't find any weak spots. Otherwise, I would have captured them all like I did with the Gong family."
"Alright, I asked you to get someone to Qingxia to repair the road, not to investigate the case."
Looking at Zhang Hai's excited and enjoying look, Wei Wu smiled and shook his head and complained.
But then he opened his mouth and gave a warning.
"The Li family is the only one left, right? Let's deal with it as soon as possible, and then go help Shen Lin. He's outside the city, which is a waste of time and effort."
"Understood. I'll leave right away."
Zhang Hai responded, then set off again with the yamen runners and headed straight for the Li family, which was in the shipbuilding business.
Then, not long after Zhang Hai left, Shen Lin hurriedly brought the young descendants of the Zhang family back to the yamen to meet Wei Wu.
However, Shen Lin was in a hurry, so Wei Wu didn't bother to talk to him more, but just told him his arrangements.
Immediately afterwards, Shen Lin set out again and, according to Wei Wu's arrangement, headed straight for the Xu family, which was the farthest away from Suzhou City.
As the saying goes, practice makes perfect. After several arrest operations, Zhang Hai and Shen Lin's actions became faster and smoother.
Finally, before dark, all the young descendants of the seven families who had not come to the yamen for the meeting were brought back.
Wei Wu was also busy. He immediately arranged a large ship and dozens of yamen runners to escort these people to Changzhou.
After arranging all these, Wei Wu did not go to the cell to chat with Gong Honghai, but went to find Zhu Zongshan.
The reason for not going to the cell was mainly because the time was too short. At least Gong Honghai had to get some sleep in the cell first.
Surrounded by rats and cockroaches, enjoying the ultimate companionship can better help him open up.
In the study, looking at Wei Wu who had come, Zhu Zongshan asked with a puzzled look on his face:
"Sir, do you have something to tell me?"
"Ok!"
Wei Wu nodded and then told the purpose of his visit.
"Starting tomorrow, we can send people to the counties, townships, and villages outside the city to publicize the issue of the land tax system. Please arrange this matter."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Zongshan's eyes immediately showed a look of joy. What he was most looking forward to was the implementation of the land-based tax system.
It’s just that Wei Wu has never started to implement it. Now it can finally be implemented so that the people can benefit.
So after Wei Wu finished speaking, he quickly responded.
"Don't worry, sir. I will definitely take care of this matter!"
After receiving Zhu Zongshan's reply, Wei Wu took his men back to the inn to rest and would discuss the matter of meeting Gong Honghai tomorrow.
After returning to the inn, Wei Wu washed up and went back to his room, ready to go to bed.
However, just when his butt touched the edge of the bed, he suddenly remembered something and almost forgot about today's happy lucky draw.
"Alas! All the things that have been drawn lately are useless. My enthusiasm for the lottery has almost been wiped out."
"System, please at least give me some more support! I'm always giving you drinks, melon seeds, potato chips and snacks. I'm not a train salesperson."
"If you don't give me something good today, believe it or not, I won't open any packages for the next... a month... a week!!"
Although he was cursing, Wei Wu still honestly switched his gaze to the system warehouse.
After all, even if the things that come out of the package are useless, they are still epoch-making products, things that do not exist in this era.
As the saying goes, even a pair of underwear and a piece of toilet paper have their uses.
In the system warehouse interface, Wei Wu looked at the three packages hovering in the air. Although he had seen it many times, he still couldn't help but complain.
