Chapter 117: The foundation is complete!The head of the Xu family spurts blood and falls!You are so poisonous (1 more)
Silkworm cocoons are flammable.
Bamboo baskets are also flammable.
Even the pillars and eaves inside the storeroom are flammable.
That's why the fire is extremely ferocious.
Almost in a moment, the whole warehouse was on fire.
"Walk the water, walk the water......"
The first guy to spot the fire immediately shouted loudly.
"Hurry up and put out the fire, put out the fire......"
This workshop lacks everything else, that is, there is no shortage of water, and there are large water tanks everywhere.
Soon dozens of workers, holding buckets and basins, desperately watered and extinguished the fire.
The walls of these storerooms are all dirt, and it is difficult to burn through at once.
If this continues, the fire may actually be extinguished.
However......
In a warehouse a few hundred meters away.
A very eerie picture appears.
Two men are lifting a basket of silkworm cocoons inside.
Suddenly......
A green flame burst out.
Ghost Fire!
The two men swore that it was a ghostfire, exactly the same as the one they had seen in the grave.
It's too late, it's still too late.
Another guy next to him immediately wanted to bring water to put out the fire, but the water tank was dozens of meters away.
So he had an idea.
A classic picture was born.
The guy who peed on the fire.
Even though the guy was eighteen years old, he was about the same size as the peeing boy on Earth.
He's too witty.
People say that the chest is big and brainless, and the bird is smart, which seems to have some truth.
Delete the paragraph above.
He fantasized about how much silver he would get after he put out this flame and made a great achievement.
However, a shocking scene emerged.
Such a small flame, such a big bubble of water.
It was not extinguished.
The ghost fire swayed in the water and danced in the splash.
In this world, there is still a fire that cannot be extinguished by water?
It's really a ghost fire!
Soon, the entire basket of cocoons burned.
It's like a signal.
Next, an even weirder and more terrifying scene appeared.
Hundreds of acres of large workshops, dozens of warehouses.
One ghost fire after another, burning violently.
Without warning, it was as if a ghost had done it.
Baskets of cocoons were lit.
Lit one storeroom after another.
At first, these people were still desperately trying to put out the fire.
Later I was completely stunned!
Everyone was horrified when they saw this scene.
"Ah...... There are ghosts, there are ghosts......"
Several warehouses, more than a dozen warehouses, dozens of warehouses, all began to burn.
This fire can't be saved.
Everyone earns wages, so why bother working for the owner?
"There are ghosts, there are ghosts, everyone run!"
"Run, if you don't run, it's too late, it's too late......"
Then, hundreds of workers swarmed out.
Rushed out of the big workshop.
It's safe outside.
Because there is a high wall to stop it.
These walls were originally designed to protect against thieves and became the best barrier at this time.
Hundreds of workers stood outside the workshop.
The autumn wind blows.
The fire inside the workshop was even more ferocious.
In a short period of time, hundreds of acres of large workshops were caught in flames.
No one can save this fire.
There are astronomical cocoons, countless raw silks, and countless silks.
All burned down.
This large workshop of several hundred acres alone is worth more than tens of thousands of gold coins.
The hearts of these hundreds of workers were filled with fear and joy.
Xu Papi is miserable this time.
But the big workshops burned down, and their jobs were smashed.
"Ghost fire, definitely ghost fire. ”
"I heard that this place was originally a mass grave. ”
"The devil has come for revenge, and I saw the ghost fire burn with my own eyes. ”
Hundreds of workers talked about it, and concluded that it was a ghost fire.
Dozens or hundreds of people saw that the green flame was burning out of thin air.
No one set the fire at all.
In the midst of the fire, the wind howled, as if a ghost was crying.
Hundreds of workers trembled with fear.
Suddenly, a fellow said, "It's so fragrant, I'm hungry." ”
When everyone smelled it, it was really fragrant.
How many silkworm pupae are in these countless cocoons, and of course they are fragrant when they are roasted by the fire.
These workers have no heart and no lungs.
But the manager of the big workshop is Xu Guangyun's henchman.
Seeing this scene, his legs were weak, and his whole body was almost about to pee.
It's over, it's over.
It's all over!
"Quick, come into the city and report to the master!"
Then, the guards of more than a dozen workshops rode fast horses and rushed towards the Xu family's house in Xuanwu City.
......
The highest point of the castle of the Xuanwu Earl's Palace.
Shen Lang waited here after dinner, and occupied the best position in advance.
Tea was brewed, melon seeds and snacks were prepared.
Just waiting to see the show.
It didn't make him wait long, just over an hour later.
The western sky was chilled by the flames.
The fire was so great that hundreds of acres of workshops were all burning.
Even if it is more than 20 miles away, it can be seen clearly.
Mulan was wearing a skirt and was also standing on the side to watch.
Shen Lang quietly leaned up and sniffed first.
The lady is so fragrant.
Shen Lang's hand is upstairs with Mulan's small waist.
Mulan did not object.
Shen Lang's hand slid down little by little.
Mulan still didn't object.
Shen Lang's hand fell on the most abundant and wonderful place.
Mulan still didn't object.
What an anomaly.
Immediately after, Shen Lang's eyes were full of tears when he saw Mulan.
She is not sympathizing with the Xu family, but hating destruction.
No matter whose handiwork it was, the construction was not easy, and it was burned down in such a fire, which was heart-wrenching.
Shen Lang moved his hand up a little bit and hugged the lady's waist with a slight force.
Mulan snuggled into his arms.
"Lady, we are here to survive. Shen Lang said softly: "In this world, nothing is more important than survival. Even if you have good intentions, you must first live on your own. ”
"I know. Mulan said: "I'm sad, but I don't regret it." ”
Shen Lang kissed Mulan's forehead tenderly and said, "The lady is always strong, and the husband has never seen you so fragile." ”
Mulan said: "You will see more and more in the future." ”
This is actually the biggest confession.
Why does a strong person become vulnerable?
The reason is simple!
......
Xu Guangyun is throwing a feast.
The engagement banquet between Xu Qianqian and Zhang Jin was too high-end before, and the businessmen of Xuanwu City, and even some relatives and friends of the Xu family were not eligible to participate.
Originally, it was planned to hold a make-up event the day after the engagement banquet and invite all these merchants and relatives.
But at the engagement banquet that night, Shen Lang won a big victory, and the Xu family was defeated and lost face, so the make-up banquet naturally ended.
But today is a good day!
Shen Lang, this kid, was defeated, and the Xu family won a big victory.
Therefore, the head of the Xu family held this supplementary banquet and invited all the wealthy businessmen to the audience.
Shen Lang, a little evil animal, was finally broken today and broke his backbone.
"Did you see Shen Lang's little brute today? Not only did he bow and apologize to the head of the Xu family, but he also burned thousands of his books with his own hands, this scene was really enjoyable. ”
"Yes, this little beast fainted on the spot, and he vomited blood directly after hearing that he was carried back to the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion. ”
"Xu Gong made a lot of money this time, buying 300,000 catties of silkworm cocoons at a 60% discount, how can there be such a good business in the world. ”
Xu Guangyun said with a smile: "What is this? What about the silkworm cocoons produced in the fiefdom of the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion and more than three million catties? I plan to buy them all at a three-fold price." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was envious, jealous and hateful.
It's great that people and Lord Taishou are married, and I thought it would be a bottomless pit to keep throwing money into it.
I didn't expect to make a lot of money.
It seems that the combination of power and money is the most powerful.
"Shen Lang, can he not sell it? Does he dare not sell it? If he doesn't sell it again, the moths in these cocoons will fly out, and when the time comes, those 100,000 people will be waiting to be fed, and he Shen Lang will be eaten alive, and these 100,000 hungry people will burn the entire Xuanwu Earl's Mansion to ashes. ”
"What can Uncle Xuanwu do? Buy food to feed these 100,000 people by himself? Where did he get the money, I'm not afraid to tell you that the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion is not only out of money, but is in debt, and the money owed will not be paid off in several lifetimes. ”
"The Jin family, it's just dry bones in the grave, it's almost over!"
"As for Shen Lang, since he compromised for the first time, there is no bottom line. Xu Guangyun said lightly: "He wants me to buy the remaining more than three million catties of silkworm cocoons in his fiefdom? ”
"Yes, yes, let Shen Lang, a little brute, kowtow to Duke Xu to make amends!"
The crowd flattered.
Xu Qianqian didn't drink with them, but was alone in the room of the embroidery building, drinking by herself.
She was going to celebrate this victory in peace.
Just as those people said, Shen Lang's backbone had been broken.
If he can burn books in public today, he can kneel and kowtow tomorrow.
Once a person breaks through the bottom line of his dignity, he will become bottomless.
Thinking of Shen Langdao's misery in the future, Xu Qianqian's heart was happy again, and she even had a little sympathy.
"Shen Lang, you shouldn't have gone to the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion to be a son-in-law at that time, you should have been a slave in my family, so that there would be a better end. ”
Licking a dog should be a lifelong licking dog, so why change your position?
In the future, after the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion is destroyed, you Shen Lang will die and have no place to be buried.
And now it seems that Shen Lang may not be able to support that day.
Xu Qianqian picked up the wine glass, opened the window, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and smelled the fragrance of osmanthus in the third season.
I drank a little too much, slightly drunk.
I don't know why, but it's a little wet.
Raise a glass to invite the bright moon, and drink into three people.
Such awesome verses, Xu Qianqian still can't do it. And she actually doesn't like to write poetry, let alone be a talented woman.
One cup respects the bright moon, and one cup respects destruction.
Shen Lang, your short legendary career is over.
Xu Qianqian drank it all.
And then......
It was as if she saw a fire.
Not a fire, to be exact, but a red glow in the western sky.
Her heart couldn't help but tremble.
That seems to be the direction of her family's big workshop?
Although the Xu family is rich, they are only merchants after all, and they can't be built on a mountain like the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion.
The terrain is not high enough and you can't see it clearly.
Xu Qianqian was stunned for a moment, and then ran towards the highest place in the house.
Don't, don't!
Xu Qianqian ran wildly, praying desperately in her heart.
......
Xu Guangyun was a little drunk.
His personality is already crazy, and at this time he is full of ambition and a little forgetful.
"Ladies and gentlemen, my family will have a big banquet tomorrow, please continue to come and let everyone watch a good show. ”
"At my daughter's engagement banquet last time, didn't Shen Lang win a big victory and be majestic? Tomorrow night, let him kneel down in public and apologize. ”
"If he doesn't kneel, he will let the 100,000 people in the fiefdom of the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion starve to death!"
"Hahahaha......"
And right now!
There was a rush of footsteps outside.
The steward of the Xu family's big workshop rushed in with more than a dozen guards, and their faces were still black, and their bodies were covered with ashes.
Seeing the embarrassed appearance of this group of people, Xu Guangyun said unhappily: "What kind of system have you become? I am full of guests and friends here, and if you are so embarrassed, won't it hurt my face?"
The chief steward knelt down and kowtowed, and cried: "Master, the big thing is not good, the big thing is not good. Our workshop was on fire, everything was burned clean, countless cocoons, countless raw silk and silk, all burned, all finished, all finished......"
As soon as these words came out, Xu Guangyun's body shook suddenly.
As if he was hallucinating, he even gouged out his ears.
And the audience also fell into silence.
I could hardly believe my ears.
The Xu family's big workshop burned?
How can it be?
There are water tanks everywhere, and there is water vapor everywhere, how can it burn?
After a while, Xu Guangyun stepped forward and kicked the big steward.
"I'll let you talk nonsense, I'll let you talk nonsense! Are you impatient, or are you drinking too much cat urine? ”
The chief steward kowtowed desperately and said, "Really, really, master, you can go and see it." ”
At this time, Xu Qianqian ran over like a gust of wind.
"Father, something is wrong, there is a fire in the west direction. ”
"Come on, prepare the carriage, go to the big workshop!"
A moment later, Xu Guangyun and Xu Qianqian rode in a carriage and galloped towards the big workshop outside the city.
......
Wait for Xu Qianqian and Xu Guangyun to arrive.
The entire large workshop was already surrounded by hundreds of soldiers.
Not to put out fires, but to prevent them from spreading.
Because the big workshop doesn't need to be saved anymore.
They were all burning out, and many of the walls were starting to collapse.
The autumn coat was cool, but it was so close to the fire that it was like a scorching coat.
But Xu Guangyun's body was cold, and he couldn't feel a trace of temperature.
Look at the sky-high fire.
All his booze vanished without a trace.
A cool breath rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
After decades, this big workshop has expanded from a few acres to dozens of acres, and finally to hundreds of acres, before it has the current scale.
That's the foundation of two generations.
Not to mention the astronomical amount of silkworm cocoons, raw silk and silk in there.
Now it's all burning.
How big is the loss?
Only God knows!
That's most of the belongings.
This big workshop is the foundation of the Xu family!
Now it's all ruined.
Just over an hour ago, he was still beaming and feeling at the peak of his life.
At this time, fate seemed to kick him to the eighteenth layer of hell.
Oh, my God?
Oh, my God?
God, why are you doing this to me?
"Why don't you put out the fire, why don't you put out the fire!" Xu Guangyun roared frantically.
The chief steward cried: "I can't save it, I can't save it." Dozens of warehouses burned at the same time, the fire was so weird that it couldn't be extinguished with water. ”
It's all over, it's all over!
"Ah...... Ah......h
Xu Guangyun roared like a wounded beast.
Immediately after, he felt a rush of air in his chest and abdomen.
That suffocation is about to explode.
Immediately afterwards, there was a sharp pain in the abdomen.
Then a mouthful of blood spurted out.
This time, it's really squirting blood!
And it was squirting out one mouthful after another.
Then, Shen Lang's face appeared in Xu Guangyun's mind, like a sneering poisonous snake.
"Shen Lang, you are so poisonous, you are so poisonous......"
Then, Xu Guangyun fell backwards violently.
......
