Chapter 433

Xue Jinchuan opened two restaurants in this place, which obviously could not earn much money in the eyes of observant people. Therefore, this could only mean that the Xue family had some purpose.

Logically speaking, the death or disappearance of Nan Heng in Dashun was no longer a secret, and if it were not for the Empress and Prime Minister Xue Qing that the Xue family still had, they would probably not be far from decline.

Especially the Empress, with Nan Heng dead, she no longer had the bargaining chip to seize power, and at this time the Xue family still arranged Xue Jinchuan to come to the northwest to open restaurants. Mo Jiuye had to think about his own family.

Not only did Mo Jiuye realize this, but after listening to his words, Tang Mingrui also had to consider things from this perspective.

After all, he had been in contact with the Mo family for a long time and understood some things.

"Ninth Brother, could it be that the people from Jingxian Building are making trouble?

They must have come to the northwest to prepare in advance when they opened restaurants here, and they would have inquired about each other among their peers.

I'm also in the restaurant business, Boss Jin could investigate my cooperation with the Mo family, so it's not difficult for Jingxian Building to find out too.

And the one who impersonated Boss Tang to hire a killer to commit murder is from Jingxian Building. The purpose is to block the Mo family's income."

He knew the Mo family's long-term income came only from selling dolls and cold rabbit meat.

Tang Mingrui's words conveyed what Mo Jiuye was thinking.

It's just that he knew a little more than Tang Mingrui.

The Empress was shrewd, and his father Xue Qing was able to take the position of Prime Minister. He had a lot of thoughts.

The bizarre disappearance of Nan Heng upstream of the Salt Lake happened to coincide with their exile there. Although no one knew at that time that they were exiled there, after such a long investigation, Peng Wang had already returned to the capital with the escort officer for a long time. When there were many people talking, it was hard to guarantee that they would not ask some useful clues from them. It was just that there was no conclusive evidence.

Jingxian Building opened in the northwest, presumably it was the Xue family looking for clues about Nan Heng, or they had already guessed something and wanted to avenge Nan Heng, which was also possible.

Anyway, no matter what the reason was, the opening of Jingxian Building in the northwest was something that Mo Jiuye had to take seriously.

Especially since the return of all the Mo men was no longer a secret in Xi Ling Village, interested people only need to inquire a little to understand the general idea.

According to Tang Mingrui, Jingxian Building had opened in the prefecture for a few days. They must have started acting.

On the one hand, they framed Tang Mingrui to cut off the Mo family's source of income. On the other hand, they sent people to Xi Ling Village to investigate the Mo family’s news.

Regarding this, Mo Jiuye was not worried at all. After all, things like this would come sooner or later.

Even if it was not the maternal family of the Empress, there would be others.

In short, if the Mo family wanted to live a peaceful life in the northwest in the future, it would probably not be too easy.

Fortunately, several elder brothers had already made many bombs. They just waited for the Seventh Elder Brother to bring those subordinates from the south to come back and organize the Mo Family's own army.

By then, he didn't mind a doomed struggle with those who didn't want the Mo family to live a peaceful life.

Of course, now that the Mo family had reunited, and he was about to become the father of two children, it was impossible for him to take risks with his life.

This was just a bottom line for Mo Jiuye. As long as those short-sighted people did not provoke his Mo family, he would rather spend his whole life farming and living a regular life.

To verify whether his analysis was correct, Mo Jiuye said a few words to Tang Mingrui and then went back to the yamen.

Tang Mingrui was anxious about the watermelon business and did not return home immediately. Instead, he called several cars and went to Xi Ling Village.

Anyway, Meng Huaining only asked him not to leave Yun City, and Xi Ling Village was also within the scope of Yun City, so it was not against the order for him to go there in person.

He didn’t need to worry about selling watermelons either. He had already paved the way when he first sold cantaloupes. As long as he set a price and let his men sell them, it would be fine.

What Mo Jiuye was thinking about was that in order to find a breakthrough in this matter, first Wang Lin had to tell the truth, and second, he wanted to ask Chen Wu what the person who pretended to be Boss Tang looked like.

The officers all knew that Mo Jiuye was the uncle of their county magistrate in the future, so his arrival was naturally not hindered.

Mo Jiuye easily arrived at the public hall. At this time, Wang Lin was being tortured. His hands were clamped by racks, and he screamed in pain.

In Mo Jiuye’s opinion, unless it was a person with special and tough temperament, it would be difficult to grit one’s teeth so hard.

But no matter how he looked at Wang Lin, he did not seem like a person with a particularly strong will.

So there was only one possibility—this Wang Lin must have some handle that others grasped.

To verify his idea, Mo Jiuye came to stand in front of him.

"Wang Lin, do you have family?"

Hearing the two words "family" instantly changed Wang Lin's expression. The previous painful grimace also became tense and wooden.

Seeing his expression, Mo Jiuye knew he had asked the right thing.

"Your family is now in my hands. If you still want to conceal anything for that person, not only will you suffer, but your family will not end up well either.

You endure torture yourself, but you still can't die happily. Such pain from being tortured slowly is probably unbearable for ordinary people, right?"

In the end, Mo Jiuye couldn't help but threaten him.

Meng Huaining and Mo Chuhan didn't know what medicine Mo Jiuye was selling in his gourd, but they both clearly saw the change in Wang Lin's expression and knew that what Mo Jiuye said had worked.

Therefore, the two just maintained a stance of onlookers and let Mo Jiuye take the lead.

Mo Jiuye just wanted to test to see if there was any handle being grasped by others.

The most common one was that family members were being held hostage as a threat.

He followed up aggressively: "If you really don't care about whether they live or die, I can leave here now."

As he spoke, Mo Jiuye had already turned around and made a gesture as if he was going to leave.

Seeing this, Wang Lin became anxious. He dragged his battered body and kowtowed desperately to Mo Jiuye.

"Sir, please be kind and spare my old mother and daughter. They have never done anything to harm others or break the law. As long as you let them go, I will tell you everything I know."
