Chapter 728 Speculators should be killed

Chapter 728: Investigators Should Kill

Apart from the old-fashioned personal guards, Wang Tong's personal guards were trusted soldiers and children with powerful vassals. Although these young men and young people have been working hard and training martial arts since childhood, they are also darlings in the family. They rarely let them do things like taking risks and fighting in blood.

When young people are together, they have to compete with each other. Although everyone has good or bad martial arts, what determines strength is just the experience of fighting and the size of strength. It is still uncertain in the future. Everyone has the possibility of growth. Now many things cannot be done accurately.

In this case, we compare who has killed people. Qi Wu, Han Gang, Sha Dongning, Bao Erxiao, these people have all had the experience of killing people and blood when they were in the army or in private forces.

The soldiers have seen blood, and their manners are naturally different from those who have not experienced life-and-death battles. They have become the core figures among the personal guards.

That's true, Wang Tong's personal guards all hope to kill people, but the military discipline and laws are tightly restricted. Everyone practices hard every day, and they have fewer opportunities to go to the battlefield, more times when fighting, and less times when seeing blood. Everyone is very frustrated.

After Wang Tong said "killing people" in the hall, not long after, the guards had already lined up in the yard, and all the soldiers inserted in the faces were excited. The so-called bloodthirsty killing had seen some signs in them. The disciplined and bloodthirsty warriors were the most elite.

Compared with these soldiers, the personal guards who had been with Wang Tong for a long time were much more calm. Some people led horses, while others were reminding their companions not to forget anything.

Soon, Wang Tong walked out of the house wearing the Jinyiwei commander Tongzhi's robe, followed by several listeners from the Jinyiwei commander's yamen in the capital. These listeners were all holding flags and ceremonial guards used by the imperial envoy.

Wang Tong always cares about convenience and efficiency in his work, but he ignores this style of power. Today, it is different. Wang Tong is wearing an official uniform and riding a horse in the middle. Several listeners holding flag guards are holding imperial edicts symbolizing the emperor's orders and military orders, guards and flags, walking in front, and a group of fully armed guards ride horses around Wang Tong.

A team of nearly 200 people walked on the streets of Datong Prefecture City. Even the officials and civilians of Datong were used to traveling at all levels in Datong Town, and they felt extremely majestic.

Now Wang Tong is the governor of Datong, and all parties are watching his every move. Seeing Wang Tong traveling with his clothes, people following him everywhere quickly passed the followers to the owners of each family.

Wang Tong did not go to the Governor's Office, did not go to Ma Dong's official residence, nor to the Datong Prefecture Office, but went straight to the west of Datong City. The urban area planning in the world was different. Due to the existence of Tianjin Wei and Canal, the residences of merchants and merchants were also concentrated towards the east city, and the same was true outside the east city. After all, to set up warehouses, shops, warehouses, etc. in other places, it would take more walks or even circle the city.

The same is true for Datong City. Datong's foreign trade mainly involves the Mongolian tribes on the grassland. When Datong City goes to the grassland, the most convenient way is to go to the west gate and go to the right guard of Datong to pass by the Shahukou to Guihua City. Therefore, most of the wealthy merchants in Datong City are concentrated in the west side of the city.

The shops are lined up one after another, not as prosperous as the capital and Tianjin Wei, but they also have their own prosperity. The trade with the grassland is not inferior to the sea trade. They are both wealthy, and the storefront is natural and extraordinary.

The most impressive one among them is the Huang Family Trading Company, a certain family's business. This is the name of the most ordinary and largest road in the business warehouse. However, if you see the scale of the Huang Family Trading Company, no one will say that it is an ordinary road.

The entire three streets in the west of the city are all industries of Huangjia Business, including cloth, grain, salt, groceries, iron shops... There are all kinds of industries. People come and go on the streets, customers come and go in and out, and from time to time, Mongolian merchants wearing Mongolian leather robes and braids on their heads can be seen coming and going in and out.

Among them, the Huang family's general account is different. Buildings are rare these days. The second floor is already eye-catching, the third floor is shocking, the shops and merchants are mainly bungalows, while the Huang family's general account is a second floor building, which is extremely conspicuous in a shop west of the city.

When pedestrians coming and going on the street saw Wang Tong's horse team, they panicked and avoided it, blocking the imperial envoy's car. They had no place to deal with it when they were trampled to death by the horse.

The sound of hooves was like thunder, and the shops all came out to look around. Seeing that it was Wang Tong's team, they hurriedly retracted. Wang Tong's team stopped in front of the Huang Family Store store.

The shopkeeper of the business, even if the Zhike and his friends did not recognize Wang Tong, they also recognized the official robe on Wang Tong and the flag-plaque held by the entourage in front of them.

Seeing Wang Tong's team stop, Zhike quickly came out to greet him with a smile. Wang Tong ignored him and just turned around and ordered:

"Come here, go and catch the shopkeeper of this business. I have something to ask him."

The tone was calm, but after speaking, the whole street became quiet. The Huang Family Store Zhike and the shopkeeper who came out to greet him were all speechless, and they didn't know what to say for a moment.

The guards were all trained to arrest people. When they heard Wang Tong's order, twelve people agreed in unison, all of whom were turning over and dismounting, and rushed into the store with weapons.

When they saw them rushing in, the guys who were welcoming guests in front of the general office and the guards sitting in the corner all subconsciously stepped forward to stop them. Wang Tong, the guard who was arresting, would be polite to them. At least he had some mercy and did not draw the knife out of the sheath, but just smashed it with the sheath.

The guys screamed and dodged, but the guards of the Huang Family Trading Company were really a little angry. They actually used a stick to stop Wang Tong's personal guard who was going in to catch people. Although they did not fight, the wooden stick kept spying forward, and Wang Tong's personal guards could not approach for a while.

After all, it is to arrest people, and these guys and guards may not be guilty, and it is not suitable to draw their swords and take action. The personal guards hesitate for a while and the situation is a bit stalemate.

The shopkeeper in front of the door was about to speak, but he heard a sharp whistle and suddenly heard a painful cry behind him, and then many people screamed there.

Looking back, a guard lost his stick and covered his thighs, sitting on the ground screaming. Wang Tong's personal guards had already gone upstairs. The guys and guards who had just stopped him all dodged and looked in panic. After careful look, a feather arrow was nailed to the thighs of the guard.

"You can stop the arrest of the guards."

Wang Tong said coldly. Tan Jiang beside him held a bow in his hand and looked at the store coldly. No one expected that Wang Tong's methods would be so cruel in broad daylight.

Listening to the man in the store screaming, if there is any reckless action, Wang Tong will definitely kill people, and no one inside or outside doubts this possibility.

You can also hear the noise of the general account outside. Soon, the guards grabbed a middle-aged man and threw him directly to the ground.

This middle-aged man was dressed in wealthy and elegant, and looked like a pampered person who was usually quite powerful, but now he was not very powerful. When he was thrown out, his feet bumped on the threshold, and the man fell down from the steps and lay on the ground for a long time before he got up.

The guards followed some helpless people. They looked like shopkeepers. Some people turned around and ran back, but no one paid attention to them.

The middle-aged man got up and wanted to stand, Wang Tong immediately said coldly:

"I am an imperial envoy. The imperial envoy asked about the case. Are you qualified to stand up and reply? Step on it?"

Wang Tong ordered coldly that a guard from behind stepped forward and stepped on the middle-aged man's back. The middle-aged man caught off guard and lay heavily on the ground. However, this man was quite tenacious and struggled to support him with his arms and said on the ground:

"Mr. Wang, do you know whose property this is? You dare to do this. Don't think that if you have an imperial envoy, you can do whatever you want."

"You are Zhi Wanchang, the big shopkeeper of this business. Don't say anything. I really don't know who is behind you, but I should be able to see you right away. Didn't someone go to report the news?"

Wang Tong said calmly immediately, and then said:

"Now that military affairs are urgent, your Huang family business dares to stock up on goods and speculate on military capital. What is the intention of you?"

Hearing Wang Tong's question, Wanchang's body stiffened and said stiffly on the ground:

"Why do adults say that villain? The Huang family business is doing business every time, and never knows about military capital..."

"Sanjiang Trading Company and other commercial banks were commissioned by Datong Town to acquire military funds. In order to prevent the Tartars, you intercepted them and raised prices. So what if this is not speculation?"

Wang Tong said coldly immediately. The streets were very quiet, and there were occasional whispers. The people in front of him reposted what Wang Tong said. Originally, the people on the street were quite angry, but when they heard Wang Tong's words, the expression of indignation on everyone's faces went a lot. Datong is located in the northern border. For two hundred years, it has been deeply invaded by the Tartars and has delayed the defense of the Tartars. Then the Huang family business is not worthy of sympathy at all.

"The villain never knows what military funds are. The villain just sees the goods sold so much, so he reaches out to do a business and never knows what military funds are."

Wanchang knelt on the ground but his mouth was stubborn, but his voice was already a little trembling. Wang Tong said loudly:

"Everyone who does business knows that you say you buy and sell it to the official family, and it is the same as Sanjiang Commercial Bank selling it to the official family. Didn't you send someone to the official's side to ask whether the official will buy it or not?"

There was a loud bang on the street, and it suddenly became noisy. The Wanchang hesitated on the ground for a while and said with a hissing:

"Sir, please see the owner of the small trumpet, the King of Dai..."

Before he could finish speaking, he heard a commotion at the intersection of the street, and a personal guard came to report:
Chapter completed!
