Chapter 150 The Light Is Dark
"What? Too much, huh? Lord Rohmon said, but he was a little unhappy. When has he been so verbose and grinding here for a long time, and he has always asked for money directly. Where is there any need to talk nonsense here, it's not because the hall master of the White Tiger Hall looks down on him a little bit today, so he thought about personally taking his men down the street and collecting some money to honor the hall master!
He has indeed weakened in the east gate in the past two years, and there are only five or six younger brothers under his hands, and the benefits in the door are not very good, and the filial piety money is much less. So much so that the hall master didn't like not to say it, and the other people also looked down on them. Hmph, when he received a lot of silver taels, he honored the hall master, and added a few more junior brothers, and found the ferry field that was robbed, and saw which of them dared to despise it.
"It's a lot, we're just an ordinary grocery store, Lord Romon, you really want too much, please forgive the little woman for not agreeing." Chunyu said directly, she couldn't be afraid for a while and agreed. This was five taels of silver at the beginning, and maybe there will be more insatiable greed in the future, so her family will not be able to do business.
"You little girly skin is quite backbone, right, believe it or not, the master smashed your shop." When Lord Rohmon heard this, his brows furrowed but he did not speak, but the strong man behind him spoke again.
"I'm going to smash you all, believe it or not." The other strong man also spoke loudly, the expression on his face became more vicious, and he deliberately took a step forward with his mace and waved it a few times.
"Eldest sister......" Chun Tao and Zao'er were so frightened that they tightened Chunyu's sleeves and whispered Chunyu. Where have the two little girls ever seen such a vicious person, they are usually bold and clever, and they are too scared to say anything at this time.
Guo Lin and Zhang Huzi were also a little nervous, but they were not afraid of these people, but they were afraid that they would hurt Chunyu and them in anger.
Chunyu was a little annoyed when she saw this, she still didn't believe that these people really dared to smash her shoppù today.
She also knew a little about it before, and she also knew that these gangs were like the ancient underworld, they were some serious industries on the surface, but secretly they were doing some illegal things. Moreover, many of them also have contact with those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, taking bribes from officials and being secretly protected by them.
She had read a book before, and there was a paragraph on the ancient underworld, saying that there was a gang organization with a fine division of labor, strict discipline, and a professional debt collection next to the Fucheng Bridge in Nanjing, which was similar to the nature of the underworld. Not only did they have a "godfather" named Deng Yutang, but they also had dozens of thugs under his command, and a group of spies who pretended to be of various professions to make friends with businessmen from all over the world who came to Nanjing to do business, trying to extract their township, surname, grandfather's and father's names, and other intimate information, and then forging the documents that their ancestors had borrowed money from their gang when they came to Nanjing in a certain year and month, and then came to the door to collect debts.
At this time, the bulls and horses of the Deng gang were dispatched one after another, some of them threatened to use force, some of them lobbied and analyzed the interests and harms, and the businessmen in a foreign land were afraid of their own prostitution. Or those who saw the flaws and refused to comply, these scoundrels swarmed up and put them in the water prison of the gang, and the merchants were afraid that they would die in the bandit cave and could not redress their grievances, so they were forced to pay "debts" to redeem themselves.
The most surprising thing is that it is obviously a group of wolves, greedy foxes and cunning beasts, and its leader Deng Yutang will actually be a prisoner who walks around the officialdom and makes friends with officials.
However, the Jinghuai Association should not have such low means as above, but it is really hard to say that it is really in a hurry to do a bigger thing in private. It's just that those are also far away from the emperor on that mountain, how can they dare to break the law at the foot of this son of heaven.
"The Jingshi criminal case investigation envoy Yamen is only a stick of incense away from here, if you are not afraid of ruining the reputation of your Jinghuai Gang, just smash it. I really don't believe that this is the son of heaven who is so bright at his feet, and no one dares to reason with the people. Chunyu spoke, but there was a little shock in his heart.
She is not afraid that these people will dare to smash the store, and they will dare to sue if they smash her, but this is not a good way after all. After all, they are preparing to settle in this capital, even if the matter is well solved this time, what about the future? If people are jealous, what if they come to play in the dark?
Although she is not alone, Zhou Xu'an will definitely help, but after all, he is a businessman, even if he is an imperial businessman, he will not have too much power. Besides, she wasn't going to trouble him at all.
"Hmph, the little girl's tone is not small, you are a newcomer who doesn't weigh your own pounds, and you still want to report to the official." Lord Rohmon was really unhappy now, he had never seen a merchant on this street dare to talk to him like this, it was still a yellow-haired girl. Did she think that she was beautiful, and she felt that someone would pity her and not touch her shop. If she thinks so, it is really a big mistake, he has never seen what kind of Yanxiao in the capital, and he will pity her......
Chunyu didn't know what this person thought, otherwise he would really spit on his face.
"Chunyu, don't give them a hurry, these people are not afraid of things. And they are also involved in the government, I'm afraid that even if you go to sue, it won't be of any use, and you will not be able to stay here anymore when you return. Although Guo Lin was annoyed when he heard this, he still swallowed this breath and hurriedly whispered to Chunyu, afraid that she would be impulsive.
Chunyu was stunned when he heard it, what do you mean, does it mean that there is also that official ruffian at the feet of this Son of Heaven? Is this the old saying that it is dark under the lamp?
"Don't worry......" Chunyu also replied to him in a low voice, and then looked at the Lord of Naromon and said, "Lord Romon, the so-called harmony makes money." Are you preparing to quarrel with the little girl? The little woman asked herself that although she was not a famous lady, she was definitely not a shrew in the market, and she would not quarrel. If you can do it, I will give you twenty taels, and you will not bother us again within this year, if not, there is no way. ”
Hearing Chunyu's words, the two strong men behind the Lord of Rohmon were so angry that they wanted to step forward, but they were stopped by Lord Rohman. He stared at Chunyu for a long time, only to see that Chunyu felt a little hairy in his heart......
Not to mention there, there is a seemingly simple but faintly luxurious carriage parked at the corner of the street, and next to the carriage is a young and handsome man riding a horse, watching the scene not far away.
And sitting there thought that the young girl was Zhou Mengya, the third lady of the Zhou family.
"Big brother, are we really not going over?" Zhou Mengya was very worried and said, those people don't seem to be good people, will Chunyu suffer.
"No, I trust her." Zhou Xu'an said, but he was about to turn around and go back.
"Hey, it's not ......" Zhou Mengya was really speechless, forgive her for not being able to understand her eldest brother's logical thinking at all! Don't worry about it, and believe it...... What do you believe!!
But there is one thing that her eldest brother fully understands, that is, he is ready to go home, that is, he is really ready to go home. So she had to sigh, glanced at Chunyu worriedly again, and then ordered the little guy who was driving the car to turn around and go back.
