Chapter 388: Escape from the City Gate (Part II)
Traders rebelled?
Xu Tianyu wondered, what he took care of most on weekdays was the business of those vendors, and how many shops in Shuliang City were made popular by Xu Tianyu. Moreover, even if he is in a high position, he will never worry about the dealers because of money.
Why?
They take care of the vendors so much, but they rebel?
He felt that this matter did not make sense, so he squinted at the reckless Lu Patrol.
He said unhurriedly: "Inspector Lu, what you said is true?" Wouldn't it be that you did not do well and offended those vendors, so that you annoyed them, but you came to me to complain? In the realm under my Xu Tianyu's jurisdiction, the traders all worship me as the god of wealth, how can they oppose me and take the lead in rebellion? ”
"It's not! No! Please listen to me, sir. "Lu Inspector is about to cry, there are words of suffering!
"Say!" Xu Tianyu said.
Inspector Lu let out a sigh, adjusted his breath, and said, "Lord Xu doesn't know that today's closure of the city has affected many traders to do business. The owner of the winery took the lead in standing up and rebelling, saying that not allowing the city to be closed would delay him from preparing good wine for you. ”
"Oh!" Xu Tianyu nodded.
Only then did he remember that not long ago, he had indeed ordered more than ten jars of fine wine in the popular winery in Shuliang City, in order to feast on the people of Heaven three days later.
The local mountain spring in Shushan, with the local fairy energy, and the secret recipe, the wine brewed is probably difficult to find in the heavenly court.
That's a problem!
Xu Tianyu also ordered a set of sandalwood tables and chairs, especially for the banquet of heavenly court guests.
You can't let the people of the heavenly court. Sit in your own rotten chair!
It is not good-looking, but also uncomfortable, and it is suspected of neglecting guests.
These vendors should be given some time to prepare, but if they are let out of the city, I am afraid that some small traders and vendors will come out to make trouble, all of which are related to making money, and who can easily let go of the silver that should have been earned in their hands!
Xu Tianyu frowned.
Lu inspected and said, "Lord Xu! The subordinates have already issued a lockdown order, and I am afraid that the people of the Immortal Sword Sect have already laid out the net of the heavenly land. Set up the formation. Then. If you open the city gate again and let them out, it will ruin the battle, isn't it a waste of time! ”
"It's a delay. But. Neither shall I delay my banquet of distinguished guests! Xu Tianyu said.
What else does Inspector Lu want to say. But let Xu Tianyu wave his hand to stop it.
He needed to meditate at the moment, and when he ordered the closure of the city, he only thought about capturing Luo Qianqian alive. However, many details were overlooked, such as affecting a group of vendors to go home to buy goods, thus affecting their business.
The supremacy of money is his value, delaying the business of the traders, that is, affecting his own money bags.
He doesn't want to affect his money bag because of the lockdown, he wants to have the best of both worlds.
At this time, the wise man beside him, Cheng Qian, the old man who had come up with a lot of ideas for him, smiled at him and said, "Lord Xu, I have an idea, that is, it will not affect the situation laid out by the Immortal Sword Sect, and there is something that can let the traders out of the city." ”
"What's the solution? Come on. Xu Tianyu said.
Cheng Qian's words, like a rising star in the sky, suddenly solved Xu Tianyu's urgent need.
Cheng Qian said: "Lord Xu, you are busy with big things, and you naturally ignore the small things on weekdays. Next to the south gate of the city, a small door that was once opened to punish an official, I don't know if Lord Xu can still remember. ”
Xu Tianyu recalled carefully, searched for his past memories, and tried to remember the small gate next to the south gate, but he really couldn't remember it for a while.
Lu Inspector said in a rough voice, "It's that dog hole!" It is used to insult the officials who made mistakes at the time. ”
"Hey! Don't say it so badly, it's a punishment, hehe! Cheng Qian said with a smile.
Xu Tianyu listened to it, and suddenly remembered that three years ago, there was an official who violated the regulations of Shuliang City, but it was not light or serious, and when he didn't know how to deal with it, it was Cheng Qian's idea to open a small gate next to the gate in the south of the city, commonly known as the dog hole, so that the offending officials could crawl out of the dog hole, and they were not allowed to enter Shuliang City for half a step from then on.
Right! Right!
He said with a smile: "The small gate is about five miles away from the south gate, even if the Immortal Sword Sect sets up a formation at the south gate, it won't affect it." ”
He pondered again and said, "It's just that three years ago, it was sealed with an iron railing, and I don't know where the key to the railing is now?" ”
"With me." Cheng Qian said with a smile.
Xu Tianyu nodded and said, "Wonderful! Wonderful! However, I'm worried that if someone among the vendors knows what happened three years ago, it won't be nice to let them climb the dog hole. ”
"Hmmm! They probably don't climb the dog hole. Lu said.
Xu Tianyu looked at Cheng Qian and said, "Master Cheng, what do you think of this matter?" ”
"Huh! Easy to do! Discount some silver taels to exempt them from paying 10% of the tax this year, and they are naturally happy. Cheng Qiandao.
Xu Tianyu agreed: "That's right! They are all business people, and in business, money is the most important, and face is secondary. ”
Lu Xian raised his eyes to look at Xu Tianyu, and said very cleverly: "Lord Xu, I understand, I will handle this matter immediately, and it will definitely be done properly." ”
"Good! Go ahead! If it's okay, don't bother me anymore. Xu Tianyu said.
Then, he wrote an official document, stamped it with a seal, and asked Cheng Qian to hand it to Lu Inspection, so that he could take the official document to deal with the matter, which would be more convenient.
After receiving the official document and the key, Lu Xun walked away in a hurry and hurried towards the bustling market.
At this time, the market was still very lively, and the vendors were shouting at the immortal soldiers.
The most confident are the owner of the winery and the owner of the carpenter shop, both of whom want to prepare items for Lord Xu to use for Lord Xu's banquet and distinguished guests, and they are emotional and push with the immortal soldiers.
The immortal soldiers didn't dare to fight back.
Luo Qianqian watched from the sidelines, secretly scolding these immortal soldiers, they are all things that bully the soft and fear the hard.
She was also not happy with the fairy soldiers, so in the crowd, she kicked the fairy soldiers twice to relieve the hatred in her heart.
There was a lot of trouble here, and Lu patrolled and rushed over there, shouting from afar: "Don't fight!" Don't hit! Kumon is here! Seeing official documents is like seeing Lord Xu! ”
Hearing the shout, there was an official document here, and the owner of the winery stopped and said to everyone: "Let's calm down, listen to what the official document says first, Lord Xu will not treat us badly." ”
Luo Qianqian listened to it, covered her mouth and snickered, and said in her heart: The vendors made such a fuss, it really worked, if Xu Tianyu agreed to let the vendors leave, Xiaoyao and I would be able to escape from this broken city.
Lu Xun ran over and panted: "The official document is here, Lord Xu agrees that you will leave Shuliang City, but there are specific arrangements, you need to listen to my command." If you don't believe me, you can read the official document for yourself. ”
With that, Inspector Lu handed the official document to the owner of the winery.
Luo Qianqian suddenly went to the side of the owner of the winery, stood aside and squinted at the official document, which read: Shuliang City is closed, if you want to leave, please go out of the city through the small gate on the east side of the south gate. All businessmen need to follow the arrangements of Lu Patrol.
