[Comprehensive] The five elements are short of money

Wang Yun jumped on the blockade outside the city, and there was no peace in the city.

Xiang Ding was very happy, seeing Wang Yun fall down, no matter how valuable his status was, he couldn't get up, how could he be unhappy.Xiang Ding and Guan Hetong's judges are in-laws in charge, and if Wang Yun is taken down, the wealth of Guazhou will be in their hands.

Xiang Ding was so excited that he was gearing up, thinking whether to write a letter to His Highness the Crown Prince, so that their cousins ​​could get in touch with their "emotions".

For such a big event, everyone's eyes were drawn to it, and the city was dead silent at this moment.Everyone regards it as calmness after a catastrophe, but in fact, peace has not yet arrived.

Merchants stranded in the city all got together for the sake of the Chinese New Year and had a New Year's reunion in an inn.Such a loud explosion naturally woke them up.After staying in Guazhou City for so long, they have already selected a prestigious leader who will send people to investigate what happened, and the rest will stay in the living room to discuss.Although it is not known what happened for the time being, no one can sleep.

The fact that the blockade was blown up cannot be concealed. Soon some followers reported the news, and there was a buzzing sound in the lobby. I was amazed in my heart that the Xue family really lived up to its name, so blatantly confronting the court, what kind of hole card did it have? ?Everyone didn't believe that the Xue family didn't have any backhands, they were just pure and unruly.

"Then let's..." Someone said doubtfully, and the rest was silent, and his eyes indicated that everyone could understand.What should they do?With the blockade broken, did they flee with the onslaught?But the imperial court is the imperial court after all, if it is settled after autumn, who can bear it.

The elder brother who took the lead stroked his beard, closed his eyes and said nothing, the older the world, the less courageous, at their age, it is in line with their character to seek stability and safety.

In this silence, a clear female voice suddenly sounded: "Gentlemen, my master sends his greetings to everyone."

Everyone was terrified, they booked this inn, except for the cook in the backyard, where was there any female relatives?Confined for many days, even the most lustful people dare not bring a woman in, for fear of being tricked by a beauty, and there are so many people watching and guarding, how did this woman come in.

Everyone turned their attention to the woman standing in the corridor on the second floor, and saw that she was wearing a big hooded cloak, and the delicate embroidery patterns on the robe could be seen faintly in the scattered places.The woman lifted her slender hand to remove the hood, revealing a face as beautiful as a spring flower.

All of you here have seen the world, and have never seen any beautiful women. No matter how beautiful this person is, just because of her weird appearance, no one will be confused by her appearance.

Having said that, it can be seen that there is a beautiful woman, and the elder brother who is the leader speaks kindly, and asks: "I don't know how to call the girl, who is the master?"

"Little girl Zhu Qing, the master's surname is Xue." Zhu Qing stood on the second floor, bowing gracefully and gracefully, with the air of a lady.

Surname Xue?The elder brother who took the lead accidentally tore off a few beards. How could Xue Xun send someone to meet them? Didn't he break through the blockade and leave?

"Miss Zhu is polite, I don't know what Mr. Xue's order is." The elder brother who takes the lead humbly puts himself in the role of obeying orders, the name of the shadow tree of people, the Xue family has been famous for a hundred years, and there are explosions outside the city. How can these people be disrespectful.

"Mr. Wang, you are being polite. My master was also trapped in Guazhou like you guys before. Fortunately, God blesses you, and now you have successfully passed the customs. Thinking that you guys are traveling together, I can't bear that you are still stuck here, so I sent the little girl to inform you." Bamboo Qing Wenwan smiled and said: "The gate of the north city has been opened. If you intend to leave at this hour of the time limit, you can leave now." After speaking, Zhuqing gave another salute and stepped back to leave.

"Miss Zhu, Miss Zhu, hold back, did Mr. Xue say that the court will pursue it?"

"What should I do while waiting for the goods?"

"How about the garrison in the city?"

Everyone asked in a hurry, Zhuqing turned her head gracefully, and lightly parted her red lips and said, "Everyone has the answer in their hearts, why ask the little girl." After speaking, she disappeared at the corner of the second floor without looking back.

Mr. Wang, who was chosen as the leading brother, waved his hand, and the servants rushed up to the second floor to check. They knocked every inch of the walls and floors carefully, but found no gaps in the mezzanine.

Everyone also saw it with their own eyes, and had a better understanding of the Xue family's ability. This all-pervasive posture is so capable that it makes people frightened.

The hall was completely silent, and everyone was thinking carefully in their hearts. Mr. Wang broke the silence and asked, "What do you think?"

"It's a good time to go now." Someone said cautiously, "I'm just afraid that the court will investigate."

"Yeah, yeah." Many people agreed, whether they thought so or not.

Some people agree, but others object, "Joke, the imperial court is not what it used to be. Jinling broke down the city, and refugees from all over the country rose up. The lamp, the imperial court?" The speaker sneered at the imperial court.

"It's true, the old man is still there, and he sent a letter early to tell him to go back and stick to the family business. It may be a repeat of a hundred years ago." This person said it euphemistically, but in fact it was more vicious. Some troubled times.

In fact, everyone knows in their hearts that they would rather be a dog of peace than a person in a troubled world. They are just middle-level merchants and have no ability to play with trends.

Seeing that everyone's thoughts had turned away, Mr. Wang couldn't help worrying, and reminded: "The Xue family doesn't run a philanthropic hall, so it's not possible to come here to help me with such kindness?"

Everyone was unsure, and felt that the elder brother who took the lead was mature and prudent, and what he said was reasonable, the Xue family, that was the Xue family.

The atmosphere was stagnant for a while, although everyone had their own plans in their hearts, but they didn't say anything, and they still looked like they were sitting in a sad city.

The salt merchant Laobai burst out laughing suddenly, and said, "No wonder Miss Zhu said we have the answer, isn't it? Naturally, the Xue family doesn't just have good intentions, they clearly want to drag us into the water together, so we can't blame everyone, but Even so, my old Bai is reluctant to part with this great opportunity! As the old man said, the situation is changing day by day, I'd better go back and watch over my parents, wife and children. There is no one in charge at home. What is the use of an eminent monk who knows the Tao!"

The salt merchant Laobai expressed everyone's thoughts, and they were indeed reluctant to give up such an opportunity.

Seeing everyone's hesitation, Lao Bai sneered and said: "If you don't leave, I can go. The Xue family has no reason to harm us, and of course a small shrimp like me, Lao Bai, will not let others look down on me. Everyone is sitting here, isn’t it because there is one less person to walk, the road will be wider, and there will be less suspicion of exposure? Don’t forget that there is only one hour! Hahaha, I, Lao Bai, never do the hypocrisy of inconsistency Son, let's go!"

Lao Bai patted the table, called two servants and went out.There are still two small bundles on the boy, it seems that Lao Bai made up his mind after hearing what Zhuqing said, and asked the boy to pack up quickly.He went to the city at the beginning to repair, and a large number of goods and staff were on the boat outside the city. These days, Guazhou City can only enter but not exit, and he has no burden on him, so he can leave as soon as he wants.

With the first one to leave, the others also started to be lively, saying: "Think about it." "Go back and meditate." In fact, everyone went back to their rooms to pack their things. It is also good to try your luck at the North City Gate.

The people in the lobby were emptied in an instant, and there were crackling sounds of packing up things upstairs, as well as low, inaudible whispers.Mr. Wang sighed, the Xue family is a conspiracy. Sending a maid to say a few words has disturbed the spring water, but the choice is still in his hands, no matter how harsh people are, they can't tell the Xue family. not come.

Is this the Xue family?The Xue family has been famous for a hundred years, controlled the southern market, raised private soldiers, owned a fleet, and sailed overseas!

Mr. Wang waved his servants to prepare as well, and he didn't want to stay here anymore.

Many businessmen who were stranded in Guazhou City went to the North City Gate with the mood of giving it a try, but found that the city gate was wide open, with no guards and no believers watching.

The first one came, Lao Bai, who was the most courageous, tried to send his followers to explore the way. Hearing the shouts of excitement from the followers, before Lao Bai could react, the others had already rushed up. demeanor.

When I went out of the city and looked far away, I realized that the sky had already changed outside the city. The river in the distance was full of driftwood and corpses.

Just when Wang Yun went out of the city to check, before the General Judgment Office could take over the defense of the city, the businessmen stranded in the city were instigated by Xue Xun to run away.

At this time, Wang Yun, who was angry by the river, didn't know what had happened in the city, so he spit out a mouthful of blood, and Wang Yun fell on his back to his followers, his face was defeated and his mood was hard to calm down.

At this time, a soldier came forward to report, holding an arrow with a letter tied to it. "My lord, someone flew an arrow to send a letter, and it said that my lord lightly opened it. It was... Xue Xun."

Upon hearing Xue Xun's name, Wang Yun struggled to stand still, and snatched the letter regardless of the resistance of his followers.Seeing the words Xue Xun respected and worshiped on the envelope, Wang Yun's eyes were dazzled, and he felt that these words clearly formed a smiling face, and he was still mocking him by imitating that hypocritical smiling face!

Wang Yun tore open the envelope angrily, and what he saw was a strong and powerful Xingkai: Mr. Wang broke his promise and set a trap to trap him, but Xue Xun is a merchant, and his faith comes first.Even if Mr. Wang does not keep his promise, Xue Xun will offer a way to increase taxes in Guazhou.

Xue Xun wrote in detail how to attract investment in later generations, including how to manage cities, improve administrative efficiency, reduce taxes, and provide convenience for businessmen. If the environment is managed well, they will get more.Dividing the cake is worse than making it bigger, everyone knows the saying~
