My Husband and I Brought Hundreds of Millions of Supplies to Farm - Chapter 118

118 Chapter 118 Wiped Out

Gu Chengrui and his wife waited for them to leave and started tidying up the west room. Once they were done, they entered the interspace.

After drinking a glass of water, Zhou Ying said, “Let’s go up the mountain tomorrow after we deliver the goods to Brother Tian. First, we can cut some firewood for winter, and second, we can avoid the Qiao family.”

“That’s fine, but I don’t think avoiding the Qiao family is necessary. Since Manager Liu dared arrest the Qiao family’s butler, I don’t think this matter will be over easily. I think the Qiao family will be finished soon.” Gu Chengrui said thoughtfully.

“A centipede won’t stop moving even in death. We should be careful.” Zhou Ying shook her head.

!!
“Yeah, there’s no harm in being careful.” Gu Chengrui did not refute her after hearing her words.

So the next day, after they were done with their work, the two of them put their valuables into the interspace and took Er Zhuang into the mountain.

After Manager Liu and Young Master Zhou returned, they interrogated Qiao Mu and the others overnight.

Because they had learned from Gu Chengrui the location of the batch of military rations in advance, they quickly broke through Qiao Mu’s line of defense, and he spilt everything he knew.

In addition, there was also some information that Manager Liu had gathered.

So, the following day, he sent people to restrain the entire Qiao family.

After that, Young Master Zhou and Manager Liu went to the county and restrained the county mayor and governor. Of course, the wife of the county governor, Mrs. Jiang, was also under control.

After that, they interrogated the mayor. Because he was just a cowardly puppet and had not done anything terrible, he readily confessed.

As expected, when the county mayor found out that Young Master Zhou was a third-ranked general on the Third Prince’s side, he told him everything he knew and even took the initiative to resign from his position as county mayor.

However, it did not go smoothly when they interrogated the county governor and his wife.

Fortunately, they found a lot of evidence in the manor. In addition to their previous investigation, they beheaded the two and sent the rest of their family members to the mine.

Elder Qiao and Qiao Mu were similarly beheaded in the Qiao family, and the other family members were exiled to the North.

When Gu Chengrui and his wife came down from the mountain and received the news, they were in disbelief. One was Young Master Zhou’s identity, and the other was the speed of their action.

They were still on guard against the Qiao family when the Qiao family had already been wiped out.

“It seems like the Third Prince has already started investigating this county government,” said Gu Chengrui.

“Yeah, to dare have ideas about the army provisions; they are sure something else.” Zhou Ying nodded in agreement.

“That’s not something we should be concerned about. Our days will be much easier now that the Qiao family doesn’t keep an eye on us.

“By the way, didn’t you want to do business in town before? Let’s plan what we can do after the new year.”

“The dried yuba is selling well and with a decent profit. It’s a pity to give it up, so I think we should set up a workshop in the village.”

“That’s a good idea. We’ll have to find a reliable person in the village to manage it. ”

“Then I’ll leave this matter to you.”

“No problem,” he affirmed.

As the saying goes, plans can’t keep up with changes. Just as the two of them were looking for candidates, on the morning five days later, the assistant of Hongyun Restaurant came to pick up the goods and told them, “Doctor Gu, Mrs. Gu, Young Master Zhou is hosting a banquet at Hongyun Restaurant to thank you. Please remember to go.”

After seeing the assistant off, the two of them waited for Tian Jiawang to pick up his goods. Once he was off, the couple packed up and walked to the town to attend the banquet.

When they arrived in town, especially when they passed by the market, he found that there were more people with smiles on their faces. Even the number of people doing mom-and-pop businesses was much higher than before.

Gu Chengrui curiously asked an old lady who was smiling, “Granny, is there any good news in town recently?”
