Chapter 558 is heart-pounding

Witnessing this human tragedy, listening to the cries and scoldings one after another, Wang Luo, who was born in Xiucai, was like a knife - this is not a natural disaster, it is completely a man-made disaster!

"These Tartars! Damn it! ”

He cursed hatefully.

After scolding, he looked back at the direction of the dock with an anxious face - I don't know what happened to Wan Shouqi, did he connect with Mr. Gu and Wang Shi?

Although Wan Shouqi has only been gone for a few hours, Wang Luo feels like he has survived half his life.

It's like a year!

At the moment, this was already the case outside the city, and he was very worried that the rebels in the city would not go completely crazy at any time.

You must know that there are rebels robbing and arson everywhere, and even the location of the Rice Grain Chamber of Commerce was disturbed by a group of rebels in the evening.

Fortunately, they arranged a team of local Cao Ding to protect them, and Master Cheng of the Chamber of Commerce was willing to spend money, and after a scuffle, more than a dozen corpses and blood were left all over the ground, so they finally didn't tie up Master Cheng and his family as "fat pigs".

However, there are not many places with armed protection, and the strength of the local strong class is quite limited, and it can only protect some important places.

Many neighborhoods relied on strong men and street gates to block the rebels and extinguish sporadic arson, but there are also many places that are being plagued by the rebels: murder, **, robbery......

In some places, the fires were not even extinguished, and the spreading fires burned dozens of homes.

In the midst of extreme torment, Wang looked back frequently, and he left the little servant Ah Quan in the shop—when the guests arrived, this clever boy would immediately come and call him.

Right now, in his home, almost all the directors of the Rice Grain Chamber of Commerce, as well as the heads of other guilds, are rushing to come.

Since the Chamber of Commerce was in distress in the evening, these leading figures panicked, and the first master of the meeting took some people to find Wang Luo and asked him to get an idea as soon as possible.

Wang Luo naturally knows better than anyone else in his heart that as long as Wan Shouqi has no accident and the general of Wang Shi gets his secret letter, it should be a matter of one or two days for the army to enter the city.

Therefore, it is in his heart to take the opportunity to gather these people together.

He thought about it, so that he could give orders as soon as possible, so he simply pleaded with Master Cheng and asked him to inform all the bigwigs who had participated in the secret discussion before, and quickly come to the city to discuss the plan......

"Sir!"

Just as I was thinking about it, Ah Quan's voice came not far away, "Master, the guests are all here, urging you to go back......"

"Got it."

Wang Luo hurriedly muttered a few words to the little boss beside him, and then walked away.

However, when he returned to his house and really faced everyone's anxious eyes, Wang was a little embarrassed.

"Master Wang, have the heavenly soldiers been contacted?"

Someone couldn't help but ask, "In this situation, the fire will burn out at any time, and you won't do anything about it...... I'm afraid it's too late. ”

"Yes, it's too late if the heavenly soldiers don't come, our family is still in the city!"

Someone echoed with a bitter expression.

"By my opinion, why don't we do it ourselves?"

As soon as he heard the mention of his family, some people couldn't hold it back anymore, and slapped the table and shouted, "Anyway, sooner or later, it's better to just give it a go!" ”

"This ......"

"I think that's all I can do......"

"But, our people...... The guy in his hand is too shabby......"

For a while, there were seven mouths in the detention room, and there was chaos.

Seeing this, Wang Luo couldn't sit still.

Looking at the situation, everyone was worried one by one, and they couldn't hold on anymore.

However, before Wan Shouqi came back, he didn't know when Wang Shi would start attacking, and of course he couldn't come up with a proper strategy, which made him a little disgraced.

"Wait, lords, the heavenly soldiers will definitely go ashore tonight,"

He swallowed his saliva and forced himself to calm down, "As long as the attack starts, these Tartars are nothing more than local chickens and dogs!" ”

"Yes...... It's all burning eyebrows......"

Obviously, everyone present was not very satisfied with Wang Luo's remarks.

However, the first Cheng master still has some rules, and he knows very well that if there is no Wang Shi in charge, just relying on the local Ding Zhuang to make an accident, it is just a matter of letting the young guys fill the ditch in vain.

At this time, you must be calm - no matter how difficult it is, you have to get through it!

"Rest assured, everyone."

He put down the teacup in his hand, looked at Wang Luo, coughed dryly, and said, "Didn't Master Wang say that the heavenly soldiers will definitely arrive tonight, but it will only be an hour or two." ”

"Of course, we can't sit still at the moment, some things have to be arranged quickly."

On the one hand, he comforted everyone, and on the other hand, he sent people out to contact the strong men and local soldiers in various places, asking them to "strictly defend the ground" and "protect the territory and the people", and they would definitely be "rewarded heavily" afterwards.

In addition, he ordered people to invite several of the most reliable leaders of the strong class.

Master Cheng's purpose is very simple, this chaotic situation must not let everyone lose their inch.

sent the envoy, but Master Cheng called Wang Luo aside alone and asked him in a low voice if there were any acquaintances in Wang Shi's army?

Wang Luo didn't dare to hide anything at this time, so he made it clear that his boss, Mr. Jiang, was already in Wang Shijun.

"In this way, Master Wang is not the owner of the rice shop?"

There was a suspicious look in Old Man Qiao's eyes, "This Mr. Jiang ......"

"It's not a secret, Mr. Jiang, the owner of the house, is really a Confucian ...... in Jiangnan"

Wang Luo saw that Master Cheng didn't mean to let go, so he had to get closer and whispered, "Great Confucian Gu Zhongqing." ”

"Oh?"

Master Cheng raised his head, his eyes lit up, and he was surprised, "Gu ...... My lord? Really? ”

As a giant businessman, he naturally knows a little about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, Gu Yanwu and his affairs, especially some things between him and the armed forces in various places after the fall, and the rumors in the market have not been a day or two.

"No more lies!"

Now, Wang Luo is not afraid of being exposed, he raised his hand and pointed to the west, and added, "Since last night, Mr. Gu has been in the army over there...... Don't worry about it, sir. ”

Hearing this, Master Cheng's face suddenly relaxed.

He has lived in Yangzhou for a long time, although he has heard of the name of this group of "Ming thieves", but he lacks an intuitive understanding of their behavior, and is facing such a dangerous thing as breaking the city.

Fortunately, with such a person as Wang Luo here today, and a big man like Mr. Gu mediating outside, Master Cheng feels that he has relied on it somewhat......

"Old man......"

As he was talking, Ah Quan ran in outside the door and gestured to Wang Luo.

Wang Luo looked back, and then his heart trembled - this 10,000-year-old has finally returned?

……

"It's coming! The Heavenly Soldiers are coming! ”

When Wang Luo led Yang Yuan into the detention room, he was so excited that he danced a little, "Before dawn, this Yangzhou City will be the world of the Ming Dynasty again!" ”

When he saw a heavily armed officer standing majestically in front of him, the originally dull and gloomy faces of the bigwigs of the guilds suddenly relaxed.

Now, seeing that Master Wang was really here, they finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the solemn atmosphere in the room immediately became a little lively.

It seems that this Wang shopkeeper is really not an ordinary person.

This heart-pounding day is finally coming to an end, and most of everyone's net worth and lives can be saved.

The tea and snacks brought by the guys had been left on the table and had been unattended, but it was suddenly full of people, and some people were whispering to their servants for "not having the eyesight to see" and not knowing how to add hot tea.
