Chapter 121 - 121 Judgment

121 Judgment

Even though Ming Zhiyan’s sharp eyes were looking around, the people he saw all lowered their heads, not daring to look at each other.

He said coldly, “Do you know why I’m arresting you? The person who reported it was sent by Miss Jian. He said that you guys smashed up the food shop and injured people. There are also cases of poisoning. There will be an investigation. There’s no rush. Let’s finish this first before that.”

After a pause, he said, “It’s fine if you don’t want to go to the county office. Then let’s settle the case here. What’s your name?”

That person answered subconsciously, “My name is Wang Fugui.”

“Alright, Wang Fugui. Do you have any objections to the fact that you destroyed the food shop and injured the staff?”

Wang Fugui wanted to quibble, but when he met Ming Zhiyan’s cold and fierce eyes, he chickened out. He seemed to have lost his spirit as he said, “No objections.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Ming Zhiyan nodded. “Then let’s start the compensation.”He turned to look at Jian Qingqing. “Miss Jian, I’ll have to trouble you to calculate the losses.”

Jian Qingqing nodded. She checked the broken tables and chairs and the spilled sace. Then, she went to ask the doctor about the medical fees for the treatment staff. After a moment, she came back with an accounting book.

She said, “The broken tables and chairs are a total of 3 taels of silver. The stewed meat is a total of 38 catties. Each catty cost 20 wen, which adds up to a total of 4 taels of silver and 60 wen. The medical fees for the staff plus the cost of delaying work are a total of 10 taels of silver… Just give me 17 taels of silver as compensation.”

Hearing that, Wang Fugui also forgot about Ming Zhiyan. He cursed loudly, “You’re robbing me! What medical fees are 10 taels of silver? Just give them two catties of meat. Why are you looking at the doctors?”

Jian Qingqing snorted, “Do you want to see how badly they were beaten? It’s fine if you don’t want to pay. Just let them hit you back. How about it? Is that okay?”

Wang Fugui instantly stopped talking. He lowered his head guiltily. He was the one who beat most of those people. Of course, he knew how serious it was. He also enjoyed beating people up. However, if he was getting a beating, he would not be able to accept it.

He stammered, “Alright then, I accept.”

In any case, he would ask Miss Liu for money later. She was the one who had asked him to do so.

However, he suddenly thought of something. He raised his head and shouted loudly, “My matter is settled. Then it’s her turn! What do you say about my brother having a bad stomach in her shop?”

Ming Zhiyan nodded and said coldly, “It’s indeed time for this matter. Where is your brother?”

Wang Fugui panicked. “You, what are you doing?”

“Of course, there must be a victim to report the case. How can I give you compensation without seeing his injury?”

Hearing this, Wang Fugui heaved a sigh of relief and said, “He is still in that private room. He vomited so much that he didn’t come out.”

Ming Zhiyan gestured for the officials to carry him out. “Naturally, I need to be there to judge the case for him.”

Wang Fugui could only watch helplessly as the two officials carried his brother, Wang Fuyou, out on a chair.

Ming Zhiyan looked at the person who had followed Wang Fuyou out and asked, “Who are you?”

Wang Fugui quickly answered, “He’s Doctor Li. It’s all thanks to him. Otherwise, something big would have happened to my brother. Doctor Li is really a good person. Not only did he save my brother, but he’s also been watching over him.”

Wang Zhiyan was ignoring Wang Fugui, and he continued to look at Doctor Li, “You said you’re a doctor? Then what are the symptoms of the poisoned person?”

Wei Wusheng asked meaningfully, “You’re a doctor? Why haven’t I seen you before in Shifeng County?”
