The happy life of a prodigal

"it is good!"
Zhu'er was waiting for these words, and after hearing this, she felt a lot more relaxed in her heart.
When he arrived in the carriage, he took a deep breath, and then he said: "Mr. Fang, these days, people have been coming to Buzhuang to make troubles. Because the guards you sent are present, those troublemakers don't dare to do anything. Bu Zhuang was sitting, or else he was blocking the road.
But today, for some reason, those troublemakers gathered together and threatened to smash the cloth house.
Even the guards couldn't stop it. "
"The guards can't stop them?"
Fang Xiu was a little surprised when he heard this.
Those guards were all carefully selected from the Xin'anhou Mansion. Although they were not as good as the elite of the Shenji Battalion, they were much stronger than the ordinary soldiers of the City Defense Battalion.
Can't they stop?
As if seeing Fang Xiu's doubts, Zhu'er hurriedly explained: "I can't stop them, not because they have weapons or something, but because they are too numerous."
"how many people?"
Fang Xiu asked curiously.
Zhu'er thought for a while, then shook her head and said: "The dense crowd is full of people. At that time, I wanted to report to you, Mr. Fang, but I didn't have time to look, so I came here, but it is estimated that there are thousands of people."
Thousands of people! ?
Fang Xiu was really surprised when he heard this.
As the most prosperous city in the entire Chu Kingdom, Kyoto Prefecture is also the largest city, and the number of people who live here is only a few hundred thousand.
What does thousands of people mean?
No matter when it is placed, it is enough to attract the attention of the court.
So many people gathered in front of the cloth village?
Since when did Wuxiu cloth village become so attractive?
Fang Xiu looked at Zhu'er with a puzzled face, and asked, "What's going on?"
Zhu'er looked anxious, as if she was about to cry, sobbing: "I don't know what's going on, it seems that they are all from other cloth houses, saying that our cloth house is here, and their cloth houses have no business. Everyone will starve to death.
Anyway, we are going to die anyway, so we might as well fight with us. "
After saying this, Fang Xiu didn't know what to say for a while.
Because he knew that there was nothing wrong with what those people said.
So many people in Kyoto prefecture support so many cloth shops.
Spinning and weaving require people, and each of these people needs to be paid.
In other words, their cost is there, and they can't sell a piece of cloth for a penny anyway.
If they only sell it for a penny, they are afraid that they will lose money to death.
In this case, we can only close the cloth shop and think about other businesses.
But in this capital city, how can business be so easy?
And with so much labor, counting on this little salary to support the whole family!
Without these wages, what do you ask them to do?
Are you going to drink the northwest wind?
Thinking about it this way, it seems no wonder that so many people surrounded Wuxiu Buzhuang.
It was really Wuxiu Buzhuang who forced them into a situation where there was nothing they could do.
Thinking this way, Fang Xiu had already made a decision, thought of a solution, looked at Zhu'er, and comforted softly: "Don't worry, these people don't dare to do anything yet, they just want an explanation, or want to Just need a solution.
Master Ben Hou will go with you, after all, we can find a solution. "
When Zhu'er heard these words, she felt much more at ease in her heart.
Anyway, Mr. Fang is still trustworthy, no matter what time it is.
Therefore, she nodded lightly, and replied, "Yes, Mr. Fang."
Then, lead the way ahead.
The two got into the carriage together and soon arrived in the south of the city.
Sure enough, as soon as I arrived at Gujing Street, before I walked forward, I could hear a burst of noisy noise.
The noise was so loud that it could be heard from far away.
Just hearing this voice, Fang Xiu knew that Zhu Er was right.
This time there were probably at least 3000 people making trouble.
He slowly got off the carriage and walked towards Wuxiu Zhuang step by step.
Seeing this scene, the guards next to Fang Xiu rushed forward and reminded in a low voice: "Master, we'd better be careful, there must be troublemakers, or there are so many troublemakers. A bit of a surprise..."
Before he could finish speaking, the guard saw Fang Xiu's eyes and stopped immediately, not daring to speak any more.
Fang Xiu stared at the guard with a pair of eyes, and said coldly: "What are troublemakers? These people are also fathers and sons. They all have wives and parents in this capital. If you don't have a way to survive, will you come here to make trouble?
Will you think of breaking the net with Wuxiu Buzhuang?
If I remember correctly, you should also be a refugee here from the Central Plains Road, right?
How long has it been since you can't remember what you've been through? "
When the guard heard this, he was speechless, with a look of guilt on his face.
At this moment, the people surrounding Wuxiu Cloth Village seemed to have noticed something.
Someone turned his head and looked at Fang Xiu's position, then his eyes widened and he shouted loudly: "It's Marquis Xin'an! It's Marquis Xin'an! Marquis Xin'an is here!"
As soon as these words came out, tens of thousands of people boiled instantly.
Everyone turned around and walked towards Fang Xiu.
Some still trot along the way.
This scene is really scary.
Zhu'er had already hid behind Fang Xiu, she tried her best not to turn around and run away.
And several guards drew their swords and looked at these people coldly, ready to break at any time.
Fang Xiu was the only one who looked at everything that happened in front of him indifferently, as if the people in front of him were not thousands of people, and as if he alone was worth thousands of people.
It has to be said that Fang Xiu at this moment does have an indescribable temperament.
The troublemaker himself didn't intend to do anything to Fang Xiu.
Just seeing Fang Xiu, they knew that someone who could call the shots was coming.
So I want justice.
There were so many people gathered around Fang Xiu, they were chattering so hard that they couldn't hear clearly.
The guards shouted hoarsely: "Back! Back! One more step forward, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
"Back! Back! Don't squeeze!"
Seeing this scene, Fang Xiu took a deep breath and shouted with his loudest voice, "Quiet—!"
A roar made the audience instantly quiet down.
First, some people who were close to Fang Xiu heard the sound of silence. For some reason, they, who had been in a state of rage all the time, actually became quiet.
Not a word was said.
Then came the people behind, one after another, within a few seconds, the entire Gujing Street, the whole world seemed to be quiet.
No one made the slightest sound.
Because they knew that Marquis Xin An was coming, no matter what, Marquis Xin An would definitely give them an explanation.
Xin'anhou is trustworthy!
Some of these people are refugees from the Central Plains, and some are people from other states who came to Kyoto to seek a way out.
Another part is literate and has read newspapers.
They knew the weight of the three words Xin'anhou.
I also know what these three words mean.
Therefore, they are willing to listen to Xin Anhou's words, and they are willing to be quiet.
Zhu'er looked at the scene in front of her, with an expression of disbelief on her face, her eyes widened, as if she saw something impossible to happen.
There are so many guards in Wuxiu Zhuang, so many people, but they can't calm down these people, or they can't calm down these people.
Mr. Fang's words actually succeeded?
This...is a bit too incredible.
Pearl thought so.
Fang Xiu had already started talking.
"I understand why you are here, and I understand what you want. You all know that I come from a noble family, and I am the son of Uncle Anping, who is now Linzehou.
You may think that I have not experienced what you have experienced, and I don't know what kind of life you are living.
But I want to tell you that what you think and feel is wrong!
I have experienced the life you have lived, and I have experienced even harder than this.
Therefore, I know that you are not troublemakers or mobs, you are just living in peace and stability, ordinary people who can't ask for anything like this! "
Chapter 825 The Solution
As soon as these words came out, the troublemakers all changed.
Maybe there were still some doubts in my heart, even Marquis Xin An couldn't solve their problems.
But at this moment, their hearts are much more secure.
After all, Marquis Xin An said these words, which proved from some aspects that Marquis Xin An understood them.
And these understandings are precisely the basis for dialogue.
Without this understanding, how to have a dialogue is just playing the piano to the cow.
After Fang Xiu finished speaking, he paused, looked around, and then continued: "The reason you are standing here now is nothing more than one reason, you have no way to support yourself, and you have no way to support your family.
Because of Wuxiu Zhuang, because of Wuxiu Zhuang, you lost your business and lost your work.
I admit, this is my mistake, I didn't consider you. "
Having said that, everyone's expressions changed a bit.
The dignified Marquis of Xin'an actually admitted his mistake to them?
Did they hear it right?
Did Marquis Xin An really admit his mistake to them?
After living in this world for so many years, it was the first time that they saw Xun Gui admitting his mistake to them, which was unbelievable.
Everyone was surprised and didn't know what to say for a while.
Fang Xiu continued: "But this problem cannot be solved by you smashing Wuxiu Buzhuang.
To tell you the truth, the reason why Wuxiu Cloth Shop can sell such cheap cloth is only because of the invention of a new type of loom. If you smashed Wuxiu Cloth Shop, there will be Youxiu Cloth Shop and various other cloth shops.
Of course, you can continue to smash those cloth houses, and even smash the new looms, so that your business will not be affected, and your work will not be affected.
But, think about it, is this possible? "
When Fang Xiu said this, he saw some changes in everyone's expressions.
Someone said loudly: "Why is it impossible? If there is no damn new textile machine, everyone can live a very good life!"
Someone next to him echoed: "Well said, all this is because of that damn new textile machine!"
"If there is no new type of textile machine, everyone will have work and money! They can support the whole family!"
