Chapter 284: Deterrence and scare are not the same

It's already the middle of the night when I get home, and the house is full of people, who should come and shouldn't come, who can come and can't come, all of them come, the most are naturally businessmen, and the small lobby is crowded. [Ran^Text^Library] Leng Yue was leading a few people to help serve tea, and these people were all gathering together to discuss how to face the chaos in Chengdu.

"Sir is back!" I don't know who shouted, and the noisy lobby immediately fell silent, and they all got up and saluted.

Su Ren didn't want to see these guys at all, and as for those egg pain problems, he would talk about them slowly later. But everyone is here, and many of them know each other, and the eviction order can't be issued. Accompanied by a smiling face, passing through the crowd, whether you have seen it or not, it is always not wrong to say hello first.

Without waiting for Su Ren to sit in his seat, Cui Jiuming shook the fat and asked first, "Sir, what's going on?" Can there be a disposal for Taishou? Can we still do business? Today there are several shops ready to leave Chengdu, even if it is a small county outside is safer than here, those chaotic people do not dare to go to the Taishou Mansion, so they sprinkled the anger on us, three days ago, the shop of the shopkeeper Qiu on the street has gone to the water, yesterday, a large group of beggars at the door of the shopkeeper Wang, this business can not be done! ”

Another person hurriedly added: "Yes, I don't know where the evil wind is blowing from, it's chaotic, what does it have to do with us businessmen, there are soldiers in the government, and they don't dare to go to those officials, so it's left to target us!" ”

The discussion was loud, and half of the merchants in the room were in the house, and each person made a little noise was a large swarm of flies.

Sima Xiangru stood up and took a deep breath: "Everyone, don't be impatient, and listen to what Mr. has to say!" The voice was not loud, full of energy, everyone in the hall heard it clearly, and everyone quickly stopped talking and turned their heads to look at Su Ren.

Su Ren took a deep breath: "I also know what you said, Taishou also knows, in the afternoon Taishou came to me to discuss countermeasures, there is already a plan, you can bear with it for a few more days, everything will be fine, I don't stop you if you want to go out of the city, you can stay if you want to, even if you want to leave the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce, I have no opinion, I can only tell you, I have promised to solve this matter for Taishou, how to solve it I can't tell you, that's all, I'm a little tired, you all go back!" ”

After Su Ren's words were finished, he got up and walked back, and Huang Shisan hurriedly followed. There was silence in the lobby, Su Ren's words were light, how to listen to it and not believe it, but it was what Su Ren said, and he couldn't believe it. Watching Su Ren leave, he quickly approached Cui Jiuming's side: "Shopkeeper Cui, can you have an idea?" ”

Cui Jiuming rolled his eyes: "What idea can I have, since Mr. said it, whoever wants to go can go, I have no opinion!" ”

"But this Chengdu ......"

Cui Jiuming separated the crowd and left angrily, the rest of the businessmen, you look at me, I look at you, shook his head helplessly, and could only leave.

Sima Xiangru, Huo Laosi, and Liu Gao sent everyone out of the door, and then came back leisurely. instructed Shi Bao to arrange for someone to take care of the courtyard, and the three of them returned to the lobby. Sima Xiangru sat near the main seat, and Huo Laosi sat opposite him. Liu Gao sat alone by the door. The three of them just lowered their heads and drank tea, without the slightest intention of speaking.

Shi Bao finished his work, stepped into the threshold with one foot, and found that the atmosphere was not right, and it was not easy for the other foot to step in again.

Sima Xiangru smiled: "Is it arranged?" ”

Shi Bao nodded: "It's all arranged, if those chaotic people dare to come, don't think about leaving." ”

"Okay, your twelfth and thirteenth brother-in-law has to take care of your sister and children, Gou Junhou and Xiao Jinzi are in the barracks, and Huang Thirteen wants to protect Mr., we have only you left in this family to use, don't slack off!" If there's anything that doesn't get it, go to your two brothers-in-law and they'll definitely help. ”

Shi Bao nodded again and again: "Don't worry, sir, I will definitely do it properly." ”

After sending Shi Bao away, the three of them fell silent again. There was not much time, Su Ren changed his clothes and turned out from behind, followed by Huang Shisan and Cui Jiuming. Cui Jiuming was sweating profusely, obviously coming in a hurry, and he didn't need to be ordered, he sat where he should be doing, picked up Sima Xiangru's tea bowl and poured it violently.

Su Ren sat down and gave Huang 13 a look, and Huang 13 strode out and closed the door.

"There are a lot of people, a lot of things are hard to say, now there are no outsiders here, let's open up and say, this turmoil in Shu County was deliberately done by someone, we all know this, Lao Liu, what did you find?"

Liu Gao hurriedly got up: "The people who instigated the people are some young Confucian students from Jingzhou, Xuzhou, Yangzhou and other places, and the origin of the sabotage has also been clarified, they are all guards of caravans from other places, and there is also a group of people, whose whereabouts are secret, if it weren't for the blind people who found the clues, we shouldn't know by now, these people don't belong to any camp, and they don't seem to be involved, but they ......."

"Say, what are you doing?"

Liu Gao glanced at Sima Xiangru: "These people seem to have something to do with Shopkeeper Zhuo. ”

"Oh? Is it Ebony Bluff? ”

Liu Gao shook his head: "No, I've never seen it." ”

"Keep investigating, we must find out the origin of those people!"

"Whoa!"

Without waiting for Liu Gao to sit down, Su Ren remembered one more thing and asked Liu Gao again: "Is there any trace of Ebony Cliff in Chengdu City?" ”

Liu Gao hurriedly stood up: "According to Mr.'s instructions, we have been paying attention, the strange thing is that this time we did not find any traces, at first we thought that the one related to the shopkeeper Zhuo was the ebony cliff, but later found out that it was not." ”

Su Ren nodded and motioned for Liu Gao to sit down. After asking Liu Gao, he asked Cui Jiuming: "Is there a new situation in Chang'an?" ”

Cui Jiuming shook his head: "As you said, our business with the imperial court has not been affected, and the Dou clan seems to have no next move, except for some Confucian students who stayed in the capital, no one in other places has been affected, it seems that the Dou clan does not have the wrist of Empress Lu." ”

"Can the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce do what I say?"

Huo Laosi hurriedly got up: "According to what Brother Ren said, all the goods sold for export are agents, and all those who can't be agents are abandoned, and the main forces have been shrunk back, and every effort has been made to ensure that the two trade routes are unblocked, and I have already greeted the people of Yuanshan, and if there is any problem, I can send troops to support at any time." ”

"In this way, everything is not out of control, I am worried all the way back, if the scene is out of control, it will be troublesome, Chengdu is such a good place can not be destroyed, the people are good people, all of them are things made by those guys with ghosts." Su Ren let out a sigh of relief: "I have been authorized by Taishou to clean up the source of rumors in the city from tomorrow, and those who are evildoers, Lao Liu, do you know the residence of those people?" ”

Liu Gao looked excited: "Sir, don't worry, they haven't escaped my eyes when they change places every day!" ”

"Good!" praised Liu Gao, turned his head to Sima Xiangru and said, "Brother Sima, since you married your sister-in-law, I'm afraid you haven't been to Zhuo's house yet?" This is a loss of manners, otherwise I will take my sister-in-law to Zhuo's house tomorrow and visit your father-in-law, how about it? ”

"What the gentleman said is that he is confused!" Sima Xiangru bowed down to be taught.

After a night without saying anything, Su Ren got up early in the morning, dressed neatly, turned over on a white horse, and rode to the military camp outside the city under the protection of Huang Shisan and more than a dozen guards. There was a problem in the city, half of the county soldiers were transferred into the city to maintain law and order, and only half of the men and horses were left in the barracks outside the city. There are not many people, and the training is still ongoing.

Li Cheng and Hawking were about to pack up and go into the city to meet Su Ren, when they suddenly heard the beating of the drums of the generals. Li Cheng slapped his thigh: "The captain is here!" Come on! ”

Su Ren went to the top of the commander's seat, and his subordinate soldiers, Sima, and cavalry all stood according to their ranks. Su Ren looked at everyone and said loudly: "Where is the officer on duty?" ”

Li Cheng hurriedly came out and hugged his fists: "My subordinates are here!" ”

"Is there a vacancies?"

Li Cheng glanced back: "Captain, there are twenty people above the cavalry in the Chengdu County Barracks, and they are too guarded, Gou Junhou led half of the county soldiers into the city on business, and the rest of the people are all here." ”

Su Ren nodded: "Pass my military order, all the county soldiers will gather, and immediately go to the city, dare to disobey the order, behead!" ”

"Whoa!" All the officers roared and took the order. The barracks suddenly became lively, and the county soldiers scattered everywhere hurried into their barracks, dressed neatly and hurried to the school military field. With only one cup of tea, the 750-strong army of county soldiers was already neatly draped and standing in the school military yard in their respective queues.

Although the number of people is not large, the spirit is very good, this is the first county soldier of Shu County, and whoever sees it will give a thumbs up. Hawking gave an order, and the army marched towards Chengdu.

Li Cheng rode a horse and followed behind Su Ren: "Captain, are we really going to scare the people who are making trouble when we enter the city this time?" ”

Su Ren smiled: "Scare? Do you think it's a scare? ”

Li Cheng also smiled with him: "Could it be that you will really kill someone?" This city is full of people! Isn't the captain trying to ......?"

"It's not a scare, it's called deterrence!" Su Ren said: "Don't worry, I don't rebel, can I rebel with this manpower?" This time I entered the city to find out all those guys who instigated the people and caused trouble, and with these guys, the chaos in Chengdu could not be quelled. ”

"The subordinates understand what the captain means, but the captain should also know that those people are not easy to catch, even if there are another 1,500 county soldiers, they may not be able to catch them all!"

Su Ren's eyes narrowed, and he said indifferently, "That's why it's called shock, catch a batch, kill a batch, and the rest will definitely not dare to blatantly mess around!" Frighten? It's so pediatric, they dare to come and they are not afraid of scare! ”

Li Cheng was slightly stunned, and the words of murder came out of Su Ren's mouth to make him strange. In his impression, Su Ren never talked about killing, and occasionally talked about it in a joking tone, it seems that Su Ren was really angry this time. Hurriedly asked, "Mr. is going to kill too little?" ”

"Then it's up to you how much you can catch!" Su Ren smiled at Li Cheng.
