Chapter 504 Beating

Zhou Shuren pointed to the jewelry, "I guessed it from the pearl head that my daughter brought back."

Zhulan was stunned for a moment, then she came to her senses and said, "You mean, the Xu family intends to secretly fish for pearls? The Xu family wants to use this to count against the Li family, and thus count against the Zhou family?"

Zhou Shuren nodded, "Otherwise, I can't think of how a fishing boat can count us. In fact, sneak fishing has always existed. If you look carefully, you will find that many people who disappeared from fishing villages were caught on board to fish for pearls. Some background With a powerful force, it is easy to launder the pearls that have been caught privately.”

Zhulan was silent, Zhou Shuren was right, ancient technology was underdeveloped, and there was no strict surveillance, so finding an island as a stronghold would be very difficult to find out, "It's a felony to be caught fishing for selfishness."

Zhou Shuren poured himself a cup of tea, "Well, in order to prohibit private fishing, the imperial court stipulated that it was a felony in the code, beheading for serious crimes, and ransacking the house for light ones. Someone wanted to take over Zhou's family with one pot."

Zhulan pursed her lips, and said deeply, "Then it seems that the people from the Xu family suspect that you are blocking the way, who do you think it could be?"

Zhou Shuren turned around in his heart. The prince is absolutely impossible. The second prince has been in contact with him several times. The second prince is actually very arrogant and prefers to face it. The third prince has never seen it before. This reservation, the fourth prince is ruthless, and there are suspicions , Fifth Prince, I have met someone today, but I am afraid that there is an expert behind the Fifth Prince, such as Master Yao.

Master Yao Hou is also very suspicious, Zhou Shuren counted, he really blocked the way of many people!

Zhou Shuren put down his teacup, "No matter who's plotting it, someone must have fished it privately, and it's a whole fishing line. The Xu family is the breakthrough point. If it's caught along the way, it must be a big case that sensationalizes the court."

He had a premonition that this private fishing line must not be simple, maybe he could find some new things, stroking his beard, and wanting to change Zhou's family into the water to replace the dead ghost, he must have the consciousness of death.

At this moment, Mrs. Song, who was out of the house, came back. Zhulan picked up the unfinished things to bring, and changed the subject with Zhou Shuren, "I have prepared the wedding invitations for the wedding banquet. The list is listed. You can take a look later. Make up for anything you missed."

Zhou Shuren, "Ah, good."

The two chatted one after another, when Zhou Shuren got up and went to the study, Zhu Lan said: "You also talk to the second brother, they want to buy a fishing ground, don't be set up by others."

Zhou Shuren understood that Zhulan was afraid that the Xu family would not be able to trap Li Shi, so she refused to give up, so she went to the second child and said, "Got it."

While Zhou Shuren went to the study, he asked Jinyan to inform Boss Zhou that they all came to the study.

Zhou Shuren sat and read a book for a while, all four sons came, standing in a row, Zhou Shuren put down the book and looked at the few cheap sons, it was a big change, when he first came, the eldest and the second were rural guys, look Now, with a finger in hand, a jade pendant on his waist, and a satin dress, he can no longer look like he did a few years ago.

Zhou Shuren didn't speak, but his scrutinizing gaze made Boss Zhou feel a little nervous.

Boss Zhou stood obediently, not daring to move, reflecting on what he had done in his heart, deeply afraid that his father would settle accounts with them, you know, father rarely called them together, especially When taking a bath.

Zhou Shuren looked at the cheap sons speechlessly, and then he looked at them for a while, sweating on their foreheads, "Don't think about it, I called you here to tell you, be more down-to-earth, don't rush when you see the benefits." , please remember, there is no free lunch in the world, there is a price to pay.”

Boss Zhou has become much smarter through experience, "Father, is something wrong?"

Zhou Shuren glanced at Boss Zhou appreciatively, the former Tie Hanhan was very shrewd, very good, "Yeah."

Boss Zhou understood his father's compliments, Emma, ​​who was nervous just now, instantly soared, and grinned foolishly.

Mr. Zhou raised his heart, and the sweat dripped from his forehead, "Father, is anyone going to plot against the Zhou family?"

Zhou Shuren stared at the second child Zhou, this kid just came back not long ago, he ran out from time to time, rarely at home during the day, squinting his eyes, "Why,

Someone found you? "

Zhou Lao Er swallowed his saliva, "Father, my eldest brother and third brother and I want to buy a fishing ground. I met a merchant yesterday and said that fishing boats make more money. I didn't agree. I was just thinking about looking for more information. !"

Zhou Shuren put down the teacup in his hand, with a little force, the teacup hit the desk, "What's the last name of this merchant?"

It turned out that not only Li Shi was found, but Chang Yi was also found.

Zhou Changyi swallowed, his father's tone was filled with anger, there was something wrong, "A merchant surnamed Zhang was in the seafood business, and he said that many fishing boats made a lot of money."

Zhou Shuren wrote it down, "I don't care if you buy the fishing grounds, and you are not allowed to touch the fishing boats. If anyone dares to slander Yang Wei, don't blame me for being cruel."

"yes."

Chang Lian felt that his father's eyes were like knives, firmly piercing the four brothers' bodies, "Father, is someone plotting against our Zhou family?"

Zhou Shuren hummed without concealing it, "You guys remember, be careful when you go out."

Boss Zhou wrote down a few, Chang Zhi pursed his lips, "Father, Su Xuan also has fishing boats."

Zhou Shuren twitched the corner of his mouth, "It belongs to the county lord himself, so you don't have to worry about it."

The county lord's every move is watched by someone, and according to the county lord's intelligence, he knows better than anyone else what to touch and what not to touch.

Changzhi closed his mouth, but he thought in his heart that he thought he should give Su Xuan a set of codes, so that Su Xuan could copy the codes for her handwriting practice in the future, and Changzhi looked at the bookshelf.

Soon his eyes widened, and there were a few books he hadn't seen before on the bookshelf. Although he rarely came to his father's study room, he knew that his father put books in a regular way, and the book was in that position. , forcing himself to move away from the book, "Father, can I take the code back?"

Zhou Shuren was really stunned by Changzhi's operation, "Do you want to see it?"

Changzhi was a little embarrassed, his ears were red, "I want to go back and make a copy and give it to Su Xuan for her to copy."
