Chapter 65 Lin Yin

Zhang Wenyue was really forced by Zhang Yuelu and had no choice but to tell Zhang Yuelu about the Lin Yin case.

Lin Yin was originally engaged in maritime trade business. He was not rich. He only had one ship and was at most an ordinary family, making a living.

A few years ago, Lin Yin took over a business related to the prefecture to transport a batch of goods to an island that was not within the normal route.

The prefecture built some fortifications on that island. At the beginning, it was transported by flying boats instead of sea vessels, so it didn’t matter whether it was within the normal route.

Later, the prefecture thought that it was too expensive to transport materials by flying boats, so it outsourced this part. The subordinate chamber of commerce that was not within the prefecture came forward to recruit ships.

Because it was not within the normal route, and it had to pass through a reef, and there were sea monsters, the risk was relatively high. Although the price offered by the Daofu was quite high, not many people were willing to take it. After Lin Yin took over the deal, after several twists and turns, he finally arrived smoothly and drew the corresponding sea chart, marking how to avoid reefs and sea monsters, which was considered to have opened up a new route.

For a period of time afterwards, Lin Yin was responsible for the transportation of materials here. Because the demand was large and the Chamber of Commerce offered a high enough price, Lin Yin made a lot of money and even began to plan to save money to buy a second ship.

At this time, the Chamber of Commerce suddenly asked Lin Yin to hand in the sea chart. People have to bow their heads under the eaves. Lin Yin had to rely on the Chamber of Commerce to do business. Although he was reluctant, he still handed in the sea chart.

Unexpectedly, not long after Lin Yin handed in the sea chart, the Chamber of Commerce kicked him out and turned the deal over to the Nanyang United Trading Company.

This Nanyang United Trade Company has a deep background, a large family and a large business. It does all kinds of business and its tentacles extend to every corner of the maritime trade. It does not let go of this little profit.

It is actually nothing when things develop to this point. Although Lin Yin is angry and angry, he knows that the Nanyang United Trade Company is a big family and a big business, and he can only swallow his teeth.

Later, Lin Yin heard that the Nanyang United Trade Company always had shipwrecks, either hitting the reef or being robbed by sea monsters, and the losses were huge.

This made Lin Yin feel very strange. He had clearly handed in the sea chart, so why did the Nanyang United Trade Company still have a shipwreck?

Is there something fishy here? So Lin Yin found an opportunity and decided to secretly follow the Nanyang United Trade Company's ship to the sea to see what was wrong.

As a result, Lin Yin found that the Nanyang United Trade Company did not have a shipwreck at all, but embezzled the goods under the name of a shipwreck, and this part of the loss was actually borne by the Daofu.

In other words, it was the Nanyang United Trade Company that was digging into the Daofu's corner. After Lin Yin discovered this situation, he thought that the Nanyang United Trade Company alone could not accomplish this matter. It must be in collusion with the Chamber of Commerce, so he could not go to the Chamber of Commerce. He decided to report the matter to the prefecture.

Lin Yin came to the Fengxiantang branch of the prefecture to report the matter. The Fengxiantang branch of the prefecture attached great importance to Lin Yin's report and responded very quickly. It was soon approved to the Fengxiantang branch of Dongdu Prefecture. The Fengxiantang branch of Dongdu Prefecture suppressed it again and approved it to the Chamber of Commerce.

Then there was no movement. The Chamber of Commerce suppressed it for half a year. Lin Yin reported several times later, and eventually it was approved to the Chamber of Commerce for handling.

Just as Lin Yin expected, the Chamber of Commerce had long been in collusion with the Nanyang United Trade Company. How could it investigate itself?

The manager of the Chamber of Commerce even shouted at Lin Yin: "Even if you go to the Yujing Fengxian Hall to complain, I won't do anything for you!" On the other hand, the people of Nanyang United Trade Company knew that Lin Yin had reported him, and immediately sent people to find Lin Yin, threatened him, and severely taught Lin Yin a lesson, beat Lin Yin all over his body, and sank Lin Yin's boat.

The boat is Lin Yin's lifeblood, but at this point, the situation is still under control. Lin Yin reported to the prefecture again, and the prefecture responded quickly, and pressed the case to the Fuguan of Dongdu Prefecture. This time, Lin Yin did not mention the collusion between Nanyang United Trade Company and the Chamber of Commerce for corruption, but reported that Nanyang United Trade Company sank his ship.

The Fuguan of Dongdu Prefecture investigated for a few days in a formal manner, but it ended in vain. Lin Yin went to find it several times, but was prevaricated by the people of Fuguan on the grounds of insufficient manpower and insufficient funds.

That is why Zhang Yuelu said that Lin Yin reported the situation to you according to the rules and reported all kinds of illegal affairs of Nanyang United Trade Company, but you didn't care.

However, according to Zhang Wenyue, Fuguan did not ignore it, but actually cared about it. The person in charge of Fuguan found the people of Nanyang United Trade Company and asked them to pay compensation to Lin Yin and solve the matter as soon as possible, and not to make a big deal.

As a result, Nanyang United Trade Company was used to being domineering. It agreed on the surface, and then turned around and found Lin Yin for the second time, but it was not compensation, but a threat. This time, they kidnapped Lin Yin's wife.

The two sides started negotiations, and outsiders did not know how they talked about it. As a result, Lin Yin's wife was sold by the people of Nanyang United Trade Company. Some people also said that she was stuffed into a wooden barrel and sank into the sea. In short, the talks were completely broken.

At this point, the situation was completely out of control, and Lin Yin entered the stage of solving the problem in his own way.

After such a series of changes, Lin Yin had lost his trust in the Dao Mansion. He was a congenital person, and now he was alone and had no ties. He went straight to Qibaofang, spent all his family wealth, and bought a

"Sun-shooting Long Gun" and seven shots

"Dragon Eye Yiyi", after a period of investigation, launched a revenge against the Nanyang United Trade Company, the Chamber of Commerce, and the Daofu.

The power of the "Sun-shooting Long Gun" is needless to say. Only the gods can withstand it. Ordinary people with innate powers will die after encountering it.

So in a very short time, Lin Yin successively killed three managers of the Nanyang United Trade Company, including two who negotiated with him and one who taught him a lesson and sank his ship.

Two managers of the Chamber of Commerce, including one who told him to go to Yujing to complain. One person on the Daofu side was injured and saved his life.

This incident angered the Daofu so much that it sent a spiritual officer to arrest Lin Yin. This time, the Daofu acted very quickly, without shirking, perfunctory, or prevarication, and there was no problem of insufficient manpower and insufficient funds.

Lin Yin knew that he was desperate and finally chose to commit suicide. Afterwards, the Daofu convicted Lin Yin of a heinous crime.

This is why Zhang Yuelu said, you also said that Lin Yin was unreasonable, did not follow the rules, did not follow the law, and was against the Daofu, which was extremely evil.

Among them, what made Zhang Yuelu most angry was not Lin Yin's desperate revenge, nor was it collusion between the inside and outside to poach people, but the Daofu had clear regulations for

The Daofu had clear regulations that such things must be given and returned. The Daofu approved the matter, which was

"come". The reply from above, stating the specific handling results, was

"return". This is considered a complete process. To put it in a broader sense, it is related to the deputy palace master, and there is another process.

"Come", the deputy palace master

"approves", signs his own orders or handling opinions, and then returns them, which is

"return". The last extra procedure is to report to the deputy palace master again.

This is considered a complete process. As a result, this matter only had

"come", but no

"return". The people above seemed to react quickly and gave results, but in the end it was left unresolved.

This is routine, this is indifference. This matter could have been nipped in the bud at the very beginning. As a result, due to the inaction of the Daofu, things developed step by step in an uncontrollable direction, and eventually became the current situation. Lin Yin's family was destroyed, and those managers were not spared.

That's fine, because this is just what Zhang Yuelu said about not solving the problem beforehand. But after this incident, the fuse of all this, the business that Lin Yin was originally responsible for, was still being done by the people of Nanyang United Trading Company, and the ship was still sinking every month, as if nothing had happened.

This is what Zhang Yuelu said about not solving the problem afterwards. After such a thing happened, everything was the same as before. Not to mention reflection, there was not even a little warning and remedy.

How could Zhang Yuelu not be angry? So she repeatedly questioned Zhang Wenyue, whether it was right for the matter rather than the person, or right for the person rather than the matter.

She could not ask whether Lin Yin was right or wrong for the time being. She only asked one question, whether there was a problem here, and if there was a problem, why didn't she solve it?

This is the same as Qi Xuansu's idea. When Qi Xuansu punished Huang Jiaoqing, he also put aside the controversial points for the time being, and did not ask whether Huang Jiaoqing's handling was right or wrong. Instead, he held on to the key points and held Huang Jiaoqing accountable for privately calling for the spiritual officer.

As newcomers, the two of them did not have enough power to cut the Gordian knot. If they wanted to quickly open up the situation, they had to find a thread from the mess and then follow this thread to unravel the situation.

As for Zhang Wenyue, Zhang Yuelu believed that he probably had no interest disputes with the Nanyang Trading Company. After all, he was born in the Zhang family, and he did not have to support so many mistresses like Zhang Juquan. In addition, he was relatively young, and the family gave him sufficient support. He did not lack Taiping money at all. He would not dirty his hands for a little bit of profit, and he was more careful about his feathers.

However, this does not mean that Zhang Wenyue has no problems. He cannot escape from laziness and inaction. He is in harmony with the world, harmonious, and timid.

Zhang Yuelu ordered Zhang Wenyue to immediately arrest the relevant people involved in the case, including those who did not act.

She wants to get to the bottom of this case.
