Chapter 381: Bewildering* Homepage Cover(1/2)
Zhang Zhongde, who was short and sturdy, had a flat face, bowed to the other party.
"Everyone please get out of the car." said the guards in the town: "The chamber of commerce has issued a convening order, which is a concession order that our lords and lords. With this order, the chamber of commerce can convene the chamber of commerce training, guards, and the soldiers of the government who visit relatives and return home."
Lu Wenluo got off the car first, and behind him were many soldiers of the government army. Of course, only Zhang Zhongde was the guard.
When getting off the train, Zhang Zhongde could only line up in one team, and he couldn't help but shrink his head.
"What happened?" Lu Wenluo said to the guards in the town: "We had also discussed the affairs of Jianzhou before, but we also knew that the bandits in Jianzhou would not dare to come to Nan'an. Now they are braver? There is also a chamber of commerce, can the chamber of commerce command our government troops?"
"There will be officials from other courtyards to come soon, please wait."
Lu Wenluo and others could only wait. The bustling crowds in the town suddenly disappeared, and most of them ran towards the west of the town.
A group of soldiers of the government army were so anxious that they were on fire. Fortunately, after a while, the left-behind government army came out of the courtyard in the east of the town. Of course, it was called a group training place. There were about one hundred people, and there were more than 200 guards.
The person who commanded the left-behind army was originally Wu Weisan, but now he has changed to another old general Gao Huairen from another villa. He has always been Wu Weisan's deputy. He has extraordinary martial arts and sufficient energy. He is more than enough to train new recruits and left-behind soldiers.
Gao Huairen was in charge of the military camp of the mansion, and his military rank was not low. The guards were also commanded by him, and the other two were in cooperation.
Amid the loud sound of the military horns, everyone turned their faces to the left and lined up neatly.
After the queue was arranged, another team officer ordered everyone to sit down and wait for the military order.
Gao Huairen glanced at the mansion army who came back to visit relatives and grinned, "I told you to drive you away, but don't worry, we are cooperating with the Chamber of Commerce. If we really fight, those dogs are not our opponents."
The officers began to gather together, and they were joking with their knives. It seemed that nothing was important.
Lu Wenluo and others also relaxed, and Zhou Huaiyong said to a government army beside him: "What happened?"
"A group of trainers from Jianzhou City called Jianzhou General Group came to Jianzhou. We set up tax cards from our Nan'an to Shuikou. My mother has caused us a disaster."
Everyone became interested, and Lu Wenluo said: "What kind of group is it? Is it because the Jianzhou mine has crossed, and there are too many bandits there, and they are rushing to suppress the place?"
The town's government troops spit out and cursed, "If you push a bird, they will bully good deeds. First, they searched for passers-by merchants and collected taxes. Then all those who passed by were charged money, and never let anyone go. If there was anything wrong, they would beat and scold people. Now they would just collect donations during the day and pretend to be bandits and kill people at night. It has become a disaster for Jianzhou and our Nan'an area."
"The government doesn't care about this? Who made this Jianzhou General Group?"
"It's not the Li brothers' fucked the tycoons? The government? The benefits of plundering and plundering were given to the prefect Wang, which government would still be in charge?" The government army was also very angry when it came to this matter. He spitted and cursed.
"By the way!" Nan'an Mansion Army sat upright and raised his face, "Before, they stopped everyone except the people from our Nan'an Marquis Mansion. Recently, they have become brave. Our carriages, horses and people have been stopped several times. Can we let him? We have fought with them a few times. If it weren't for the top, we would have slaughtered these beasts long ago."
Everyone was furious when they heard this.
"They tried to stop Nan'an Hou Mansion and beat them all the shit."
"This is really fun. From Jianzhou to Nan'an Town, who dares to mess with us?"
"Who are the Li brothers?"
"Li Fuwen and Li Fuwu were originally the mine owners of Jianzhou. They were not good at operating the mines. Later, they joined Wang Yue. The prefect Wang handed over the mines they brought to them. They operated Huang Zi and now they set up a general group, saying that they were guarding the mines and suppressing bandits. In fact, they were collecting donations and looting people's wealth." The military officers were from Gukou, and were originally from Jian'an County, Jianzhou. When they mentioned the matter of Jianzhou, their chests were so angry that they were already very angry.
Everyone was from Nan'an, from Shuikou or Gukou. When they mentioned the incident of Jianzhou, they shook their heads and sighed, or their faces were full of anger.
"We may not be asked to dispatch it." The soldiers of the Gukou Town government army said to Zhang Zhongde, Zhou Huaiyong, Lu Wenluo and others again: "We have gathered many times. The Jianzhou General Corps threatened to come to Nan'an many times to search for bandits. Every time we gather, we will be timid there."
"It's better to go out." Lu Wenluo gritted his teeth and said, "Although I'm on vacation, I don't mind calling my sword to see blood."
...
"You two are nonsense." Yang Shizhi, Wei Jiuzhen, Lin Dingyi and others sat on the left side of the hall, and on the other side were Li Fuwen, Li Fuwen, Yang Kuo and other members of Jianzhou General Group.
Lin Dingyi was the leader of the Chamber of Commerce. Originally, Xu Zixian took up the position. Later, Xu Zixian inherited the title and became a marquis of the country and an official of the court. This position was given to Lin Dingyi.
In such an occasion, Lin Dingyi was inconvenient to speak, so he just sat upright in the official hat and chair, looking at the few opposite him coldly.
The Li brothers were originally considered a family of merchants, but both of them were dandy who could not become good at learning. They fought cocks, dogs, and drank and made money. They were both good at such things, but they could not do serious things. In less than ten years, they had all made the iron mines left by their ancestors.
If it weren't for Wang Yue, I wouldn't know where to beg for food now.
Both of them are wearing
The silk shirt with collars, bright yellow and red colors, and all embroidered flowers, look extremely vulgar.
Yang Shizhi and Wei Jiuzhen are all officials, gentry and businessmen with status, so how could they look down on the people opposite? Wei Jiuzhen didn't say anything. Yang Shizhi deliberately raised his legs and continued: "What do you say there are fugitives and there are no documents for sea captains, even if there is a document for sea captains, this chamber of commerce is not an official government, and you are not a member of the government government. But the group training, how can you have the qualifications to arrest people? This chamber of commerce is really unwilling to obey. There is no need to mention the matter of the general group entering Nan'an."
The atmosphere became very strange. Yang Kuo's eyes turned red and his bearded stood up on his chin. He was a very cruel person. He had killed people many times and was a famous bully figure in the village. This time, the Li brothers asked him to build this group training group. He watched the convoy of Nan'an Hou Mansion pass by every day, and could not knock a penny. Yang Kuo felt very uncomfortable and angry.
This time, with the excuse, everyone gathered more than a thousand people and originally wanted to rush into Nan'an to search for fugitives, but the Li brothers insisted that the chamber of commerce here was not easy to mess with. They took the letter from the prefect Wang to talk about the matter, but the other party did not give him any face.
Think about how everyone has suffered such bird breath in Jianzhou?
Wang Yue’s post, whether it is an official or a gentry or a wealthy businessman, they are all scared to death. It’s too late to flatter them, who dares to be so tough?
The Jianzhou General Group has become Wang Yue's private armed forces, and more and more wing troops have been adapted into the general group, and the number of people in the total group is expanding sharply.
During this time, Wang Yue put out donation cards on several important official roads of the Xianxia Pass and Gukou to Tingzhou and Shaowu Army, and on the excuse that many bandits began to collect donations in groups. He could have collected thousands of stakes every day, and everyone made a fortune from top to bottom.
As a result, in less than two months, the business and travelers in Jianzhou were almost cut off, and the tax on the group's total group was reduced from a few thousand guan a day to less than a thousand guan a day, or even less than a hundred guan a day.
Datou asked Wang Yue and his confidants to take it away. The Li brothers, Yang Kuo and others had no money left. They simply collected donations during the day and robbed them at night. As a result, the business travelers in Jianzhou disappeared, and the people were forced to build villages to protect themselves. The local people were already in vain.
Instead of reflecting on killing chickens and getting eggs, these people envy Nan'an for its prosperity and prosperity, and Nan'an's group training donations have stable or even growth.
Due to the chaos in Jianzhou, the number of business travelers in Nan'an Town has increased. Many merchants who originally wanted to go to Jianzhou or passed through Jianzhou turned to Nan'an to park in Nan'an. They bought goods in Nan'an. Although the cost increased a lot, compared with Jianzhou's tax cards and the bandits everywhere, it is much safer in Nan'an.
More importantly, the chamber of commerce here in Nan'an has been expanded, from the original construction of the dock warehouse, to now it has become a guild organization to protect the interests of local merchants, which has led many large merchants to join, and then small and medium-sized merchants are eager to join the association.
The Chamber of Commerce also received unreserved support from the Nan'an Marquis Mansion. The Nan'an Marquis Mansion allowed the Chamber of Commerce to organize its own group training. At the same time, if the Chamber of Commerce needs urgent help, after the directors issued an order, the Nan'an Mansion troops stationed in the Housing House and the guards who maintained the public security from the Guanzhuang to the other courtyard would also obey the command of the Chamber of Commerce.
Of course, this made Yang Shizhi, Lin Dingyi and others harden the waists. At least he was at the scoundrels in front of him. Yang Shizhi and Lin Dingyi didn't even have the interest in perfunctory things.
"Okay." Li Fuwen is the leader of the group. He was over thirty years old and had a deer-headed and mouse-eyed look. He stood up and said, "Since Nan'an has not fugitives, we won't come in first. But if we ask us to search outside the town, don't blame us for not giving Nan'an face."
Yang Shizhi said coldly: "I will listen to you."
Several Jianzhou people rushed out of the yard with a lot of popularity. There was a dock in front of it, and there were large warehouse areas on both sides.
Due to special reasons, the number of ship stops here is several times more than usual.
The pier is full of large sea boats parked, and some sea boats are loading, and the villagers carry the goods to the warehouse.
The warehouse area is almost invisible at a glance, and everyone knows that the tall stone houses are filled with valuable goods.
The Li brothers, Yang Kuo and others met with their entourage. Everyone's eyes were extremely greedy. Yang Kuo said with red eyes: "If we gather three or four thousand people, can we steal all the place?"
"There are Nan'an Prefecture Army."
"There are only a hundred people, and Nan'an Hou is not here."
Yang Kuo's throat rolled twice, and he was indeed a little afraid and afraid.
In the Battle of the River Beach, Yang Kuo was one of the foreign raids hired. They claimed to be raids, but in fact they didn't do anything to produce every day, and engaged in all kinds of illegal activities, and gained benefits from it. What kind of chivalrous and righteousness is nothing. Yang Kuo likes the most is to hold a sword every day and stand up at the door of a good business company. In order to ensure safety, merchants usually give some benefits to avoid trouble. It was the first time that Yang Kuo saw such a tough place in his life.
Thinking of this, the blood on the body of this former Ranger was so angry that he was boiling. He wanted to rush into the hall now and cut the merchants into pieces with swords.
"Brother Yang, don't be impulsive." Li Fuwen said to Yang Kuang: "This time we really want to catch the fugitive named Wang Xinyuan, and nothing else is too important."
"What's the matter with that guy bird?"
"The people here are not very clear, and I don't know very well. I know that this person came from Yang Dafu's house in Fucheng. Our prefect Wang wants to ask him to meet him, ask about the situation in Fucheng, and then treat him to which concubine to treat him. This guy has a bad temper and is tough.
He refused to come to the door. He refused to come to the door, so he went to the sea to arrest him... By the way, the prefectures of Zhangzhou and Quanzhou have been under martial law. Does Brother Yang know the reason?"
"Didn't it mean that there are pirates coming to attack the border?"
"Pirates won't come here." Li Fuwen smiled proudly and said, "It's just the empty cannons fired in the Mansion City. Damn, these big men look high-sounding, but in fact they are full of bad waters."
Yang Kuo was shocked and said, "Was the pirates going to the East Phantom?"
"Yes." Li Fuwen squeezed his eyes and said with a smile: "Now let these guys be proud. As soon as the foundation of the Dongfan of the Nan'an Marquis' Mansion fell, this place will become a fat meat that everyone wants to slap. Lord Wang told me that we should not talk about any legal rules at that time. At night, we will use the excuse of chasing bandits and rush in to steal his brigades. Let's talk about it before we talk about it. This place belongs to Fuzhou. Even if the group is engaged in donation and set up a dock warehouse, we won't have to turn this daily benefits. We will snatch up all of them and burn them up again. The traces of destruction will be used to put the benefits in hand first."
Yang Kuo said gloomyly: "At that time, I will cut off Lin Dingyi and Yang Shizhi's swords and kill their whole family in front of them."
"This is a small thing." Li Fuwen smiled indifferently, revealing a white teeth: "Isn't this kind of thing the brothers love to do the most? We have done a lot of it too."
Several rogues in official robes looked at each other and then laughed together.
...
"Brother Wei comes from the city, but what's the latest news?"
"not yet."
Wei Jiuru said to Lin Dingyi and Yang Shizhi and the others: "The thief goes to the East Vanguard, which is certain. However, there is no new news about the condition of Nan'an Hou. The only thing that can be confirmed is that there is no major change in the East Vanguard."
Lin Dingyi and Yang Shizhi looked at each other and could see the worry in each other's eyes.
They were very grateful to Xu Zixian for supporting the Chamber of Commerce. Just now, a few scoundrels came in. More than 200 Chamber of Commerce's group training personnel were on guard outside. This was the confidence of the Chamber of Commerce.
Many small and medium-sized businessmen are willing to join the business just because they see that the chamber of trade has such confidence. Although they have to pay a certain proportion of membership fees every year, in comparison, they are still willing to join the company. When encountering accidents or being bullied, there are people behind the scenes and some people stand up for themselves, and it feels different.
The real confidence of the Chamber of Commerce is not the training camps in front of us, nor the more than a hundred prefecture troops in the town, but the Marquis of Nan'an far away on the Dongfan Island.
Touching the Nan'an Chamber of Commerce is like reaching out to Nan'an Hou, be careful to meet Xu Zixian head-on... This is an adventure that King Zhao is unwilling to try.
"The news is confusing." Lin Dingyi smiled bitterly and said, "The soldiers who have returned to Nan'an for vacation in the past two days should be the last group of soldiers coming today, and there will be no more since then. Pirates will invade the territory, and the other end will not release people back to Nan'an. I will send someone to inquire, but I guess they don't know what they are."
"Now we can only calm down and don't panic." Wei Jiuzhen said in a deep voice: "We have contacted many parties, and the Changwen Marquis' Mansion has never planned to give up. Most of the other families of various aristocratic families still support the Nan'an Marquis' Mansion. The king and the marquis are in their prime and should be fine."
Yang Shizhi said: "Do you want to send more people to find the doctor named Wang Xinyuan?"
"No need." Lin Dingyi said dejectedly: "He doesn't know where he is hiding now. He really meets him and is really working with the Jianzhou delegation? He is just a doctor. Yang Dafu thinks he is useful. In fact, there are dozens of famous doctors in the Dongfan, and one doctor can rejuvenate his skills? I don't have to be rushing to seek medical treatment."
"Too."
To be continued...
