Chapter 361: Business as Usual, Murder and Robbery

Qin Chuan walked on the South Gate Street with blood and water, looking at the corpses all over the ground and shaking his head.

Most of the Jin merchants were concentrated in Binh Duong Province because it not only had fertile land, but also a salt lake.

Salt is a daily necessity, and the profits are extremely high, and most of the eight Jin merchants relied on selling grain to exchange salt with the border army to make their families.

In addition to the eight Jin merchants, there are countless merchants in Pingyang Province, in addition to selling salt, but also selling grain, selling cotton cloth and silk that are abundant in Pingyang Province, and so on.

Qin Chuan originally thought that the businessmen here would be very united, and they would be complicit in treachery.

Unexpectedly, these people will also eat dogs, and they bite very hard.

Zhao Wengui and Zhou Chenren and a group of official gentry, in order to let themselves retreat, beat the Jin family into a conspiracy and spies, and killed a river of blood at the south gate.

Most of the more than 100 people of the Jin family were killed, more than 300 Ding Nursing Homes, more than 500 scoundrels who were temporarily invited, and more than 100 county officials, all of whom died.

The small South Gate Street was full of corpses, and blood flowed along the city gate to the outside of the city.

After walking among the corpses for a while, Qin Chuan unconsciously walked to the foot of the city wall.

There were more than a dozen people kneeling in the corner, both men and women, kneeling on the ground and shivering, or beating their chests and crying.

There was also a group of people kneeling not far away, all of them well-dressed, fat-headed and big-eared.

At this time, Luo Ba came over and said: "General, I have asked, the brother who is covered in blood is Jin Dezhong, next to him is his second uncle Jin Liangchen, and a few of his brothers, the fat man who is covered in and urine is Wang Zhongjun of Zhixian County." ”

"The group of people next to him, the one kneeling in the middle is Zhou Chenren, the prefect of Linfen, on the left is Gao Xun, the general of Pingyang, and on the right is Zhao Wengui of the Zhao family."

"The attack on the Jin family was proposed by Zhao Wengui, and it was Gao Xun who led the troops, I have to say that this Gao Xun was very tightly arranged, and the people of the Jin family had no way to escape."

Qin Chuan nodded: "Well, it's all some infighting experts." ”

"By the way, what about Chow Tai Fook?"

"Zhao Wengui said that he guessed that the Jin family would kill Zhou Taifu's family, so he rushed forward and took the people of the Zhou family to his house."

"Let him bring someone here."

"He said that it was inconvenient for the black lights to blind the firefighters, and the lynx had already gone to Zhao's house, but the news just came back that he didn't find Chow Tai Fook's family."

"Yo, you want to use Chow Tai Fook to blackmail me?"

Qin Chuan said, raising his feet and walking towards Zhao Wengui.

"The villain Zhao Wengui, I have seen General Qin, and Jin Dezhong is a gift from the villain and Lord Zhou to the general, which is not a tribute."

Zhao Wengui lay on the ground, raised his head, and said with a flattering smile.

"Thank you for the gifts, Qin smiled and accepted."

Qin Chuan said with a smile, then took a long knife from the hand of Emperor Guan next to him and waved it lightly at Zhao Wengui.

"Ah......h

Zhao Wengui covered his ears and screamed, and blood gushed out between his fingers.

Zhou Chenren and the others next to him suddenly turned pale with fright.

"After a quarter of an hour, if I can't see the intact Chow Tai Fook, I will first cut off your flesh, and then kill all the people in your Zhao family, leaving no one behind."

After that, Qin Chuan returned the long knife to Emperor Guan next to him, said "gouge out his eyes in a quarter of an hour", and then ignored Zhao Wengui, nor did he bother to pay attention to Zhou Chenren and Jin Dezhong and others, but walked away.

Zhao Wengui shouted in a mournful voice: "General Qin, general, the villain is bent on doing things for the general, the Jin family was destroyed by the villain, the general ......"

Jin Dezhong, who was not far away, laughed loudly: "Hahahaha! Zhao Wengui, do you think that if you kill my Jin family and hand me over to Qin Chuan, he will treat you politely? Hahahaha...... Wait and see, your Zhao family will not end well! ”

Seeing that Qin Chuan didn't have a bird at all, Zhao Wengui's face suddenly turned like gold leaf, and his hands and feet trembled.

Emperor Guan next to him glanced at him in a daze, then took out a short knife, squatted on the ground, and found a brick on the spot to start sharpening the knife.

When the piercing sound of sharpening the knife sounded, Zhao Wengui trembled violently.

"Don't kill me, don't kill me, I said, I said, Chow Tai Fook's family is not in the Zhao family's house, but in a private house in the west of the city, and the little one is willing to lead the way for the general."

"Go with him to find someone, inform the lynx, tell him not to look for someone, and quickly raid all the homes of the gentry in the city."

Be. ”

……

In fact, Qin Chuan has never even seen Chow Tai Fook's face.

The reason why such a small businessman is making a big move is to establish his authority and flaunt it.

Whoever you are, no matter where you are hiding, if you dare to move those who cooperate with him, just wait to meet his wrath.

He just wanted to tell the other merchants that if they did business with him, they would be protected by him.

Moreover, the merchants of Linfen City are like clouds, and the gentry are everywhere, so why not do it if they can snatch such a rich city away, but also can easily establish a prestige and kill two birds with one stone?

About a quarter of an hour later, Qin Chuan met Chow Tai Fook for the first time.

This is a sturdy and swarthy man, it is said that he was born as a blacksmith, and after the former owner's shop could not continue, he took the shop down and worked for several years, and it has been tepid.

After Lou Fu iron and iron pot appeared, Chow Tai Fook smelled the business opportunity and immediately rushed to Lou Fu to buy a batch of iron and iron pot.

As a result, because of these iron materials and iron pots, he became a hot figure in Linfen, and the small blacksmith shop was almost stepped on the threshold, and countless businessmen came to the door, wanting to cooperate with him, so that he could bring more iron pots out of Lou Fu.

The Jin family is one of them, and they come the most.

Qin Chuan has repeatedly stated that Lou Fu iron materials and iron pots cannot be sold exclusively to Shanxi merchants, nor can they be shipped in large quantities, this is to prevent these goods from flowing into the hands of Jiannu.

Chow Tai Fook was a measured person who knew what he could and couldn't do, so he repeatedly rejected the Jin family and other businessmen, and as a result, he caused a big disaster.

Now, Chow Tai Fook's buttocks were all beaten and he couldn't stand steadily, but he still limped towards Qin Chuan and knelt down from a distance.

"The villain Chow Tai Fook has seen the general."

"Well, hurry up and excuse me."

Qin Chuan hurriedly picked him up with a smile.

"The general's grace, the villain is toothless and unforgettable!"

At this time, Chow Tai Fook saw Qin Chuan for the first time, and he didn't dare to peek at Qin Chuan's appearance, so he was only moved.

"Shopkeeper Zhou, Jin Dezhong is there, do you want to kill him yourself, or will I do it for you?"

"Huh?"

Zhou Taifu was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at Jin Dezhong.

He hated Jin Dezhong, but he could let him slash Jin Dezhong's words in front of the prefect and many squires...... He didn't dare, really didn't dare.

"Shopkeeper Zhou, in this place of Linfen, I'm afraid you won't be able to stay any longer, it's better to pack up your belongings and go north with me, next year I will capture the Hetao region, and then you can trade with the Mongols in Khalkha or with the Yarkands."

Chow Tai Fook was stunned again, but quickly reacted.

"Thank you, General, General Qin."

Chow Tai Fook didn't say a word, and knelt down again.

"General, let the villain slash Jin Dezhong's dog thief!"

"Okay."

With that, Chow Tai Fook got up and limped towards Jin Dezhong.

A trace of horror flashed in Jin Dezhong's eyes, but he squinted at Chow Tai Fook, his face full of the arrogance of the past.

"If you dare to kill my son, my father will lead the Xuanzhen army to chase you to the ends of the earth, and you will never die!"

"Humph! If Jin Liangyu dares to come, Lao Tzu will even kill him! ”

Chow Tai Fook was red-eyed and took the long knife handed by a Guan Emperor Jun.

"You dare?"

Chow Tai Fook was speechless, only raised his long knife and slashed hard.

Not far away, Qin Chuan waved his hand gently, and the dozens of imperial troops who had already been prepared stepped forward one after another, pressed Jin Liangchen, Wang Zhongjun and others to the ground, and then raised their swords and fell.

"Zhao Wengui is also slaughtered, as usual, including the Zhao family, all the officials and gentry in the city who are doing evil will be slaughtered, leaving only the old and weak women and children, and then two hundred taels of silver and one hundred stones of grain, and the rest will be taken away."

"Those officials whose hometowns are not in the local area, including Lord Zhou and those who are also knowledgeable, Tongju, and Gao Xun, will all be tied up and sent back to Lou Fu and let their families take money to ransom them."

"Yes!"

"General, the villain is willing to saddle the horse for the general, and he will never give up."

When Qin Chuan was about to leave, Gao Xun, who was originally kneeling on the ground, suddenly shouted loudly.

"Forget it."

Qin Chuan left without looking back.

He remembered that when Li Hongji entered Shanxi, it seemed that Gao Xun descended Li Hongji first, and then the Manchu Qing when he entered the customs.

He wouldn't want this kind of two-and-five.
