Soon, the news that the eight bigwigs in Nanjing City were wiped out one after another spread and became a topic of conversation among the people of Nanjing City after tea and dinner.

Compared with the talking, laughing and freedom of the people in the city, the heads of the Yu family, the Tian family, and the Cao family are not so calm.

Yu Shao Qin, the head of the Yu family, Tian Xun, the head of the Tian family, and Cao Baolei, the head of the Cao family, were all worried at this time, and in the face of Liu Juntao and Yushan Town's pressing step by step, the three of them all felt a little anxious and stunned.

Originally, the three of them just wanted to gather a few wealthy businessmen to fight against Yushan Town together, so as to reap benefits in various parts of Shandong, and it was best to defeat the merchants and gentry in Yushan Town and Shandong, and then everyone divided the money and power together.

Unexpectedly, after everyone fought with Yushan Town, they stabbed a huge hornet's nest, and the eight wealthy businessmen were directly stung to death by the overwhelming hornets!

Now, the battle in front of him is already a life-and-death battle between the two sides!

Moreover, now the Ministry of Commerce of Yushan Town has led more than 30 merchants and gentry in Shandong to the south, and the goods produced in Shandong can be seen everywhere in Nanjing, and the cement and glaze of Yushan Town have poured into the provinces of Jiangnan in large quantities, and many large families have begun to use cement and glaze to build houses.

Due to the good quality, new style, large output and low price of the glaze produced in Yushan Town, the impact on the glaze merchants in the provinces south of the Yangtze River is very great, and even many weak glaze merchants were declared defeated in just a few days!

The industries of the Yu family, the Tian family, and the Cao family have also received a great impact, and in just five days, nearly ten shops in the three have been closed, and several trade routes going south and north have been cut off by the Ministry of Commerce of Yushan Town!

These three originally wanted to watch the play behind their backs, so that the eight families rushed up first and worked hard with Yushan Town, but finally they couldn't sit still.

Yu Shao Qin, the head of the Yu family, and Tian Xun, the head of the Tian family, both came to the Cao family under the protection of hundreds of their respective family members, and discussed countermeasures with Cao Baolei, the head of the Cao family.

As early as the establishment of the ticket number of Yushan Town, many businessmen and gentry in Jiangnan also followed the trend to set up their own ticket numbers.

At this time, Yu Shaoqin, the head of the Yu family, said loudly: "The wealth of our three families plus the deposit silver of the three ticket numbers, not to mention 50 or 60 million taels of silver, let's use this silver to attack Yushan Town!" Let's buy the goods of Yushan Town and Shandong merchants at a high price, strive to make their goods extinct in Nanzhili, and then transport them to Shandong to sell them at a low price, and use their own goods to wash them down! ”

As soon as these words came out, Tian Xun, the head of the Tian family, objected: "This discussion is inappropriate!" In this way, even if Yushan Town and Shandong merchants are defeated, how big will the loss of the three of us be? At that time, the three of us will also be dying, and my Tian family will never participate in such a way of playing together! ”

Cao Baolei, the head of the Cao family, also said: "That's right! And if we do this, it is difficult to guarantee that Liu Juntao will not jump off the wall in a hurry, you must know that he is not only the speaker of Yushan Town, but also the chief military officer of Yanzhou Mansion! When the time comes, what should the three of us, like the heads of the eight families, die in vain? Such a martial artist can do anything! ”

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, then you can find a way!"

Yu Shaoqin, the head of the Yu family, said a little anxiously: "Now I don't dare to go out of the door, I have to bring hundreds of No. 10 family members on the street, and even when I eat at home, I have to find someone to test the poison first, I can't live a day like this!" If it really doesn't work, let's find someone to kill that Liu Juntao! ”

"No!"

Cao Baolei, the head of the Cao family, hurriedly said: "Then how can Liu Juntao say that he is also an official of the imperial court, you are going to kill him?" Are you trying to rebel! ”

Tian Xun, the head of the Tian family, also hurriedly dissuaded him, so that Yu Shao Qin could not be impatient for a while.

"What then!"

Yu Shao Qin said angrily: "Now that almost all of our three families are in and out, do you want to sit and eat empty?" You must know that the monthly offerings and dividends of those courtiers in the court will not be less than a big son! In this way, how long can the three of us support it! ”

Speaking of this, Cao Baolei, the head of the Cao family, suddenly brightened his eyes and said, "That's right! So many ministers in the DPRK and China are our backstage, and they don't get any benefits from us on weekdays, but now that we are in big trouble, there is no reason for them to contribute more in the back! ”

Tian Xun also clapped his hands and said, "Yes! Let's immediately write letters to the courtiers behind us, go to the court to complain, and let those courtiers impeach Liu Juntao for indiscriminately killing innocents and bullying the market! As long as Liu Juntao falls, then Yushan Town will lose its biggest support, and then we can take advantage of the situation to fight back! ”

However, Yu Shao Qin didn't think so: "You say it lightly! Now that the emperor has returned to Beijing, even the peddlers and pawns in the streets and alleys know that the ministers of the court and the central government are busy standing in line, and those courtiers will have the heart to help us? ”

Cao Baolei, the head of the Cao family, said with a smile: "According to common sense, those courtiers may not come to wade into troubled waters, but I heard that Yushan Town is full of gold and silver seas, and the deposit of silver in Yushan Town's ticket number alone is not much different from the three of us. Let's make it clear directly, as long as Liu Juntao is overthrown, we don't want any of the goods in Yushan Town, as long as the skills of the workshops in Yushan Town are good, and all the money will be distributed to the ministers of the DPRK and China! ”

"Yes!"

Tian Xun, the head of the Tian family, also echoed: "As the saying goes: there must be a brave man under the heavy reward!" I don't believe that with so much silver as a foundation, there are so many courtiers behind us that no one will stand up! ”

Hearing what the two of them said, Yu Shaoqin, the head of the Yu family, was also quite moved, after all, there was no second way to choose from the situation faced by the three of them at this time, and they could only be dead horses as live horse doctors, and take one step at a time!

So, on the same day, Yu Shao Qin and Tian Xun rushed home, and Cao Baolei was writing hard, and the three of them wrote letters to the courtiers behind them for help.

At the same time, the three of them also ordered their industries and ticket numbers to start a counterattack, and fought a price war with Yushan Town and Shandong businessmen, competing with each other for financial resources and competing for the market.

For a time, the entire market of Nanzhili is booming, people around the world only see the price of all kinds of goods on the market change three times a day, and even the Liu's Erguotou that can only be drunk in the restaurant, as well as all kinds of famous wine in Nanzhili, can now be drunk in the tavern, this is not counting other daily goods, so that the people of Nanzhili have benefited a lot, and even many good people hope that the confrontation between Yushan Town and Nanzhili bosses will never end.

At the same time, the hidden piles deployed by the Investigation Department in Nanjing City also collected information, and learned that the Yu family, the Tian family, and the Cao family began to ask for help from the ministers of the DPRK and China, and it was very likely that they would unite with the ministers of the DPRK and China to attack Liu Juntao.

Therefore, the secret stake of the Fang Division of the Investigation Department immediately spread the news out of Nanjing City, and then quickly whipped all the way north, and miraculously only took two and a half days to send it to the General Military Mansion of Yanzhou Prefecture.

Liu Juntao looked at the information in his hand, couldn't help laughing, and said to Liu Zi'an: "I thought that the Yu family, the Tian family, and the Cao family were some great people, but I didn't expect that they were just some dogs!" On weekdays, I provoke right and wrong everywhere, and once I meet a tough opponent like us, I start to complain to my master! ”

Liu Zi'an also laughed when he heard this, and then said with some concern: "Zongzhen, although we are not afraid of the Yu family, the Tian family, and the Cao family, but they have stabbed the conflict between the two sides to the court, and we will definitely encounter a lot of trouble!" ”

Lan Siqi also said: "Minister Liu is right, especially the people of Shi Heng, the right capital governor, they have always been at odds with the head town and Lord Yu, if the conflict between us and the big guy of Nanzhili is known to them, they will definitely make a lot of articles!" ”

Liu Juntao pondered for a moment, and then said, "It's okay! Instead of being afraid of wolves and tigers, and being afraid of doing things, it is better to let go of your hands and feet and fight hard! If Shi Heng's bastards are embarrassed with us, then we will fight back, so that those people can know that I, Liu Juntao, and our Yushan Town are not only fearless on the battlefield, but also afraid of anyone in the court! ”

Speaking of this, Liu Juntao looked at the information in his hand again, and said with a sneer: "Hmph! Now eight of the eleven bigwigs have been killed, and although the remaining Yu family, Tian family, and Cao family are powerful, they are nothing compared to our Yushan Town! The current situation is very good for our Yushan Town, not only do they not want to give in and reconcile, but they are ready to make things completely bigger, okay! It's just looking for death! Then I'll fight them to the end! ”
