The news of the closure of Shengshi Qianzhuang instantly spread in the royal capital.

This has caused a lot of dissatisfaction among large households.

It is reported that the blockade of Shengshi Qianzhuang is to make up for the emptiness of the treasury of the Qi State, which just confirms the previous remark that the treasury of the Qi State is empty.

Most of the money of these big families is stored in Shengshi Money, and this time, Shengshi Money is gone, what should they do with their money?

For a while, a strange way of trading began to become popular in the entire Qi country, that is, these rich people with bonds treated the bonds in their hands as silver and discounted them to those who worked for the rich, and these workers were trading the bonds in their hands at a discount.

This in turn led to a bond exchange turmoil.

No matter how rich the country is and how strong the people are, Qi State can't withstand such a toss.

The Gyeonggi Yamen received a complaint today, a complaint filed by several wealthy businessmen against the Hanging Mirror Division.

The governor of the Gyeonggi Yamen, Ishi Mun-sung, has been a veteran official for many years, starting from the emperor to the present, and he has been the chief official of the Gyeonggi Yamen for 40 years.

In half a year, he should retire.

Anyway, this morning, Xi Wencheng was dozing in the house, and suddenly heard a burst of drums, he couldn't help but be very annoyed, thinking, who is so bold that he dares to disturb Lao Tzu's rest.

If it had been left behind, Xi Wencheng would have hung the drummer for a long time, so as to kill his prestige.

But now he doesn't dare, the laws of Daqi are very harsh on lazy officials, and if they are investigated, I'm afraid this life will be over.

Xi Wencheng got dressed and went to court.

Only then did it become clear that it was a few richly dressed businessmen, sitting on the chairs prepared for them by the yamen in a huff.

Now the common people don't have to kneel for the chief, so these people are very arrogant in Xi Wencheng's opinion.

The master handed over the paper.

When Xi Wencheng saw it, he almost didn't scare half of his old life.

He could not afford to offend either the accuser or the accused.

Now the state encourages the development of commerce, these people are members of a chamber of commerce, and they hold a lot of money in their hands, and the defendant is even more powerful, and it is actually the Hanging Mirror Division.

Xi Wencheng didn't know how to try this case at all, if according to the previous rules, you would like to beat the officials with thirty sticks first, which will be used to beat some of your prestige, but now you can't beat it.

The Hanging Mirror Division is not a yamen, to be exact, he is just a thing that exists independently of the power agency, and is responsible for intelligence work, and the Gyeonggi Yamen has no ability to arrest people at all.

Seeing this paper, Xi Wencheng knew that this would be a big event that would change the entire law enforcement process, if he dared to go to the Hanging Mirror Division to take people, he would not only be hit hard by the Hanging Mirror Division, but also what he had done over the years would probably be exposed by the Hanging Mirror Division.

Let's just say that the commander of the Hanging Mirror Division, but the people who know everything about the officials in the whole world, many people have Chen Fan too late to hide, how dare he arrest people?

He thought of the best way to delay, which is to make big things small, small things, that's the best, if you can't do it, you can push 625, just resign and don't do it.

"My lord, we sued the Hanging Mirror Division for deliberately seizing the Shengshi Money House in order to replenish the treasury, and they hacked our money!"

What these wealthy businessmen said was the Tao, and it was reasonable, so that the onlookers saw it, and they all felt that these people were very wronged, and the Hanging Mirror Division was really hateful.

Xi Wencheng couldn't excuse himself, so he had to say: "This is just your words, wait for me to go back and investigate and study it carefully, and then give you an answer, okay?"

As soon as Xi Wencheng's words fell, someone said: "My lord, aren't you afraid of the Hanging Mirror Division, so you don't dare to go to the Hanging Mirror Division to arrest people?"

"Don't bother, my lord has sent someone to arrest someone, I will confront you in this case!" a Hanging Mirror Division official wearing a flying fish suit swaggered in.

This person is of medium height, with a little mustache on his chin, and the skin on his whole face makes those little daughters-in-law and big girls envious, if there is no beard, this person is definitely a living beauty.

"Who are you? Can you represent the Hanging Mirror Division?"

Those wealthy businessmen originally thought that they could alarm Chen Fan, but they didn't expect the Hanging Mirror Division to send a little-known figure.

"In Xia Guo Bing, there is also a name called Guo Laosan, who is a lawyer, and he is also a person who is responsible for external cases in the Hanging Mirror Division, do you think I can represent?"

It turned out that this person turned out to be Guo Laosan, who had just been recruited by Chen Fan to the royal capital, and this first battle began like this.

"I don't know what a few people are suing us about the Hanging Mirror Division?" Guo Laosan coldly glanced at these rich businessmen, he had been a soldier and killed a lot of people, and there was murderous intent in his eyes, which directly frightened these rich businessmen and took two steps back.

Where did Xi Wencheng dare to offend the people of the Hanging Mirror Division, and hurriedly handed the paper to Guo Laosan.

Guo Laosan unceremoniously continued, read it again, and then tore the paper with his hand.

Then he took out another piece of paper and handed it to Xi Wencheng.

Everyone didn't know what Guo Laosan meant.

One of them, a wealthy merchant surnamed Zhang, said angrily: "You dare to tear up the paper, this is disrespectful to the laws of Daqi, my lord, please treat him for a crime of disrespect!"

"It's all nonsense, it's all rumors, if I don't tear it up, will I let it spread among the common people?" Guo Laosan said righteously, putting aside the rumors of the past few days.

"This is all a fact, in order to enrich the treasury, you have seized the Shengshi Money Bank, issued bonds, and hacked my money, this is all a fact! The people are the biggest victims!"

"Look at how high prices are out there right now?"

The denunciations of these wealthy businessmen had already shocked Xi Wencheng's ears.

Xi Wencheng doesn't understand economics, he doesn't understand at all.

After arguing for a long time, Guo Laosan didn't react at all, and when these people stopped talking, Guo Laosan slowly took out a document sealed in brown paper from his arms.

He picked out one from it and read: "Zhang Cunyou, a native of Chu, a shareholder of Shengshi Qianzhuang, Li Wenhao, a native of Yanguo, a shareholder of Shengshi Qianzhuang, ......" Obviously, Guo Laosan did not finish reading, but just picked a few of the most basic and read a few sentences.

None of these people who came to sue the Hanging Mirror Division were from Qi State, and these people were all shareholders of Shengshi Qianzhuang.

"You are slandering, we have always been in Qi country, even if we are from other countries, we have settled in Qi country for so many years, we are already Qi people!"
