The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space Chapter 2953: Detained (4)

The first batch of medicinal wine and tea finally arrived, but it was detained right at the city gates of Shangjing.

Gu Qingheng and Yang Ruxin understood in their hearts; the other party was, indeed, suspicious and had taken action. Nonetheless, they acted very surprised, "Boss Jin, don’t you have good relations with the Imperial Court here? How could it be checked?"

"This..." Jin Buhuan was also frustrated. He didn’t dare to tell the truth.

"Boss Jin, we had agreed initially; we would collaborate because you have the capability, which is why I dared to ship the goods. Now..." Gu Qingheng slapped the back of one hand against the palm of the other, creating a clapping sound, "Aren’t you letting me down here?"

"Yes, Boss Jin, you need to quickly come up with a solution." Yang Ruxin looked anxious, "That shipment is worth a lot of money; it’s going to make us bankrupt, isn’t it?"

"Honestly, I really have no way out this time." Jin Buhuan sighed, "It’s the Imperial Family keeping an eye on us."

"What do you mean? Does your Dajin Country’s Imperial Family like to take things by force?" Yang Ruxin raised her voice, "No wonder when we were coming here, some colleagues advised us to be careful; Jin Country people are hard to deal with."

Jin Buhuan looked a bit awkward, "Anyway, I can’t collaborate with you anymore."

"You mean our goods got detained, and you just don’t care, right?" Gu Qingheng frowned, looking at Jin Buhuan.

"What can I do?" Jin Buhuan spread his hands, "Isn’t it said that ordinary people can’t fight officials? Besides..."

"I don’t want to hear all that. You have to give us the silver." Yang Ruxin reached out her hand, "We shipped the goods because we listened to you, and now they’re detained by your side. You just say you can’t fight them, and we should back off? Why? Who knows if you’re colluding with them?"

"Madam, it’s not right for you to say that."

"I also think it’s not right." Gu Qingheng stepped forward, his eyes narrowing slightly, "We signed a contract, and you paid the deposit. After entering the Border City, it was your people who took over. Now, with just a word, you want to keep our goods? Is there such an easy thing?"

"Exactly, we have goods worth thirty thousand taels, and you only gave a three thousand tael deposit. Why?"

"I know it’s not ethical to do this, but there’s no way. If I continue, I’d become a traitor of the country, a spy for Daxuan. What would happen to my whole family then?" Jin Buhuan said while crying, "How about we share the loss half-half?"

Gu Qingheng frowned and glanced at his wife, "Madam, he seems quite pitiful, should we just"

"No way." Yang Ruxin shook her head, "Why? Aren’t we pitiful?"

Gu Qingheng said nothing.

"Jin Buhuan, don’t you know people at the Imperial Teacher Residence? Go and pull some strings, then file a complaint." Yang Ruxin looked at Jin Buhuan, "Can the Imperial Family just randomly detain the people’s belongings?"

"This..."

"If you don’t find a way, we’ll stick around at your place and won’t leave." Yang Ruxin lifted her head defiantly, "Even though we’re Daxuan people, you can’t just bully us like this, can you?"

"How about...how about we go together?" Jin Buhuan tentatively suggested, "You prove your identity as non-spies, and perhaps the business can continue in the future."
