Chapter 349 Sun Wulai is sentenced to death
Knowing that Shen Wanning's decision could not be changed, Aunt Zhang said no more. She just thought about trying to be with Shen Wanning in the future to avoid encountering something like today.
Sun Hua and his younger brothers were locked up in the backyard. Originally, Lin Dashan was angry and wanted to lock them up in the cowshed, but Shen Wanning was worried that the smell would be too bad and would stink to everyone during the court session tomorrow, so they finally decided to tie them to a tree in the backyard and deprive them of food and water.
They were cursing in the backyard, and Lin He couldn't stand it anymore, so he picked up the cloth he had just used to wipe his shoes and covered their mouths with it.
Early the next morning, Shen Wanning got on a carriage, tied the hands and feet of Sun Hua and nine others with ropes, and dragged them towards the county town.
Because of these nine people behind, Lin Jingcheng drove the carriage a little slower.
Chen Zihao and his friends were worried about accidents on the road, so they hired Tie Niu's ox cart, who watched them from behind and went to the county town with them.
When Shen Wanning showed up at the county government office, a bailiff came over to greet her, "Greetings, my lady. What are you doing...?"
"Report to the police! These evil guys are doing evil things in Daqing Town, oppressing the people, and even trying to kidnap this princess." Shen Wanning said directly.
When the bailiff heard that these people dared to rob the princess, he hurried in to report to County Magistrate He.
After the court session, Shen Wanning told everything one by one.
County Magistrate He slammed the gavel and said, "Sun Hua, you dare to oppress the people and seize the princess! According to the laws of Great Xia, you should be beheaded and displayed to the public! Now, I sentence you to death and the execution will be carried out immediately!"
Oppressing the people is not a capital crime, but forcibly seizing a princess is a serious crime.
As Sun Hua was dragged away, he shouted, "You can't kill me! If you dare to kill me, my brother-in-law will never let you go! My brother-in-law is the magistrate of Dahe County!"
County Magistrate He scoffed, "He's only a seventh-rank county magistrate. Even I have to be respectful in front of the county lord, let alone the magistrate of Dahe County!"
Dahe County is a lower-level county, so the county magistrate is of the seventh rank, half a level lower than County Magistrate He.
After saying this, County Magistrate He waved his hand and said, "Take him away and behead him!"
No matter how loudly Sun Hua yelled, the bailiffs dragged him away resolutely.
The remaining eight younger brothers who followed Sun Hua were terrified. They huddled together and trembled. They didn't know how County Magistrate He would sentence them.
"As for the remaining eight accomplices, they can be spared the death penalty, but they will be sentenced to life imprisonment for twenty years," said County Magistrate He.
After hearing their verdict, the remaining people breathed a sigh of relief. Even though they had to go to jail for twenty years, it was better than losing their lives.
After the verdict, Shen Wanning was very satisfied. Now that the source of the trouble, Sun Hua, had been eliminated, no one would cause trouble in Daqing Town again.
As for the Dahe County Magistrate, she would not let him go either. However, she had to report the matter to the prefect.
Thinking of this, she said to Magistrate He, "Brother He, from what Sun Hua and the others have said, it seems that there is something seriously wrong with this Magistrate of Dahe County. I would like to trouble you, Brother He, to report today's incident to the prefect. Please ask the prefect to conduct a thorough investigation of this Magistrate of Dahe County."
County Magistrate He responded, "Of course. We can't let Wan Ning suffer any injustice. Moreover, if we don't deal with this Dahe County Magistrate, if he causes trouble again, it will be troublesome again."
"Brother He and I have the same idea. I'm sorry to trouble you with this matter."
"Wan Ning, you don't have to be polite, but after this incident, Wan Ning should be careful. Bring a few more guards with you when you go out. Safety is the most important thing." County Magistrate He instructed.
"Don't worry, Brother He, I know."
After this matter was resolved, Shen Wanning returned to Daqing Village.
Upon learning that Sun Hua had been beheaded, everyone cheered. The people of Tianjia Village were especially delighted. They were finally free from Sun Hua's oppression and could now peacefully conduct business in Daqing Town.
In the following days, Shen Wanning stayed in Daqing Town, watching Lin He handle various business matters.
In addition, Lin He also developed green plum wine, which is very popular in Mingyue Tower.
Seeing that Lin He was becoming more and more familiar with business affairs, Shen Wanning said while enjoying the cool breeze at night, "Xiao He is very smart and can quickly grasp business matters. I plan to hand over the affairs of the rouge shop in Fuzhou to Xiao He as well."
This time, even Aunt Zhang was surprised. The milk tea shop business was a profit shared by the whole family, but all the income from the Fuzhou Rouge Shop belonged to Shen Wanning.
However, she would take out 30% of it and share it with her family. After all, her family had helped a lot with the workshop in Daqing Town.
"Can Xiaohe do it? He knows nothing about rouge. Can he manage the rouge shop well?" Xu, the mother, didn't quite trust her son.
Lin Jingce continued, "Yeah, Wan Ning, it's fine to leave the milk tea shop to Xiaohe, but why are you also giving him the rouge shop? He's still young, so he can't handle it, right?"
"Brother and sister-in-law, don't look down on Xiaohe's young age. He is very smart and can understand many things at a glance. Moreover, he has unique insights into business matters. He will definitely be able to do well." Of course, even if something goes wrong, Shen Wanning can deal with it.
"But aunt, just like my mother said, I know nothing about rouge. I can't develop all kinds of new products like you can." Xiaohe was also a little hesitant.
"It's okay. You just need to remember the things sold in the Rouge Shop. What you need to think about in the future is how to open Zuihongzhuang in other places. As for new products, I can write some recipes for you later and you can ask people to study them." Shen Wanning said.
In fact, just like some modern cosmetics brands, general brands may have one or two famous products, also known as star products.
As for the others, they may not be so famous, but these cosmetics can still sell well.
Zuihongzhuang is most famous for its soap. With the three bosses A, B and C selling the soap in other places, it has actually opened up markets in other places for Zuihongzhuang.
"Can I give it a try?" Lin He said cautiously.
"Of course you can. As long as you work hard, I believe you can do it well." Shen Wanning patted Lin He's back gently with a fan and said.
"Wan Ning, why don't you reconsider it? The rouge shop earns a lot of money. If we lose money..." Aunt Zhang was still a little worried.
"Don't worry, Mom. Even if I lose, I can afford it. There is no such thing as a foolproof business, but as long as we can afford the loss, we are not afraid." Shen Wanning said.
The matter has been settled. After staying in Daqing Village for three or four days, Shen Wanning took Lin He to visit various workshops to let him understand the production process of soap, shampoo, essential oils and other products.
