When the two servants drove the ox cart out to sell ice, they were still a little worried that a bucket of ice would be a bit expensive to sell for 100 yuan, and no one might buy it. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Who would have expected that as soon as he walked out of the house a few hundred meters away, he was seen by the housekeeper of the servant Deng Sheng, and he bought it all without hesitation.

The servants came from poor people, and took it for granted that the rich and noble families had ice cellars to store ice, but they had not calculated and could not calculate what huge costs were required to build ice cellars and dig rivers to extract ice.

It is impossible for ordinary wealthy families to build ice cellars to store ice just for the sake of taking ice in summer.

There are ice wells built in the palace, and special officials are needed to manage them, which shows the difficulty of hiding ice.

After the two sold the ice, they were overjoyed, and went to the rice shop with more than 3,000 yuan to buy more than 1,000 catties of millet and came back, so tired that the old cow pulling the cart was snorting and panting.

returned to Zhang's house and reported the good news to Zhang Wang, and the two were about to continue to sell the ice, but Zhang Wang's head shook his head and refused.

"Go and bring the Taoist father and son, and carry these millet back to the Taoist temple with them. When you come back, remember to ask for a cart of plaster to come back. ”

"What is plaster?" The servant was a little puzzled, but he didn't dare to ask, so he had to ask, "What if the Taoist priest doesn't give plaster?" ”

Zhang Forget glared at him: "If he doesn't give him plaster, you will transport the millet back one by one." ”

The domestic servant was accustomed to Zhang Wang's style of acting, and he didn't feel shameless at all, so he happily agreed and went to the backyard to invite the Mingxu father and son.

Mingxu waited for a long time with fear, and saw that Zhang Forget did have the heart to donate rice to the Taoist temple, so he put his heart back in his stomach.

On the way back to the Taoist temple, the servant euphemistically expressed his request to transport a cart of gypsum back to restore his life, and Mingxu agreed without hesitation.

A pile of stones for a few thousand catties of rice, this transaction is too cost-effective. It's this Zhang who forgot to be disrespectful to the Sanqing patriarch, and he actually withdrew the offering without giving him the stone......

However, I have only been in the Tao for half a month, and my heart is not sincere, so I should not pursue this matter.

More and more ice was made from beans, and Chun Yuyi felt that beans were very hard, and he also felt that this was not a good way to achieve sustainable development, so he arranged for more than a dozen Yellow Turban soldiers to dig the ice cellar.

When the time comes, the ice cellar is full of ice, and if you put a bucket of water directly into it, it will freeze at a very low temperature by itself, so there is no need to make it so troublesome by hand.

Douzi was really tired, and accepted Chun Yuyi's suggestion with kindness.

When the Yellow Turban soldiers were digging the cellar, Zhang Forget sent more than a dozen people to carry ice cubes out to sell, and finally relied on these incomes to temporarily appease the Yellow Turban soldiers who returned from transporting soil but did not receive rewards.

But the rule is still there, that is, you can only receive money if you sign your name.

Zhang forgot to deceive these yellow scarves and came back, so he didn't plan to let them go again, first corrupted them with money, and then brainwashed, he didn't believe that the methods of the great sage and good teacher Zhang Jiao would be more powerful than himself, a well-informed person.

At the end of the day, Zhang Kuan taught the five Yellow Turban soldiers to write their names, and Zhang Forgot sneered at him.

If it weren't for the fact that this guy didn't die for his crimes, and he couldn't explain to Zhang Ji in the future, Zhang Forget would never be merciful to him. This guy's real ability is in business, but Zhang Wu can't let him out.

Don't look at him now, let him be beaten and scolded, once he goes out, he can turn into a vicious wolf, turn around and bite himself.

"Oh no, Xiao Langjun, there's a fire in the concierge!"

One after another shouts kept coming, alarming everyone in the courtyard.

A yellow scarf smeared by smoky black paint stumbled in, scolding and scolding: "**** mother, someone set fire, and the brothers chased it out, but they were beaten with a stick." ”

When the Yellow Turban soldiers in the courtyard heard this, they immediately became furious.

Some of them took sticks and were about to go out to chase people, and some of them picked up buckets and prepared to put out the fire, but they were all stopped by Zhang Wang's wave.

"Xiao Langjun, if you don't put out the fire, the gatehouse will all be burned out, and if the fire spreads, the consequences will be unimaginable."

Zhang Wangwei groaned and said, "There is nothing in the courtyard in front, and if it burns, it will burn." The two gates were covered with mud walls, and the fire could not spread to the back. ”

Zhang Wang's expression was unusually calm, as if he was not burning his own house. Ever since Douzi got into trouble and tricked Zhang Kuan back, Zhang Forget knew that sooner or later there would be such a day, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly and so frustrated.

Douzi also seemed to think of this layer, his face was pale, and his eyes were full of guilt when he looked at Zhang Wang.

Zhang Forget patted her little head comfortingly, turned his head to glance at Zhang Kuan tied to the tree, and found that there was indeed joy in his eyes that could not be concealed. Zhang Wang's heart cooled down, and he ordered: "Come on, throw Zhang Kuan into the fire." “

Zhang Kuan was shocked when he heard this, and desperately howled and begged for mercy.

The Yellow Turban soldiers had nowhere to vent their anger, so they would care about him, untie him from the tree, and drag him directly in the direction of the fire in the front yard.

"Xiao Langjun spares his life, Zhang Kuan is being put here every day, and he doesn't know about arson." Zhang Kuan desperately kicked the ground with his feet, begging Zhang to let him go.

"People set a fire for you, if there is no one in my family, how can it be justified?" Zhang Forget looked at him calmly, "Count your fate badly, cast a good baby in the next life and be a good person." ”

"Don't, help, I don't want to die, I don't want to die......"

Zhang Forget stood still, waited until there was no longer Zhang Kuan's cry in the flames, turned his head to Chun Yuyi and said: "You go to Luoyang Mansion and find Luoyang Ling Zhou Yi to complain, just say that Sikong Jiannu set fire, burned the house of Zhang Wang, a scholar of Shu County, burned to death a steward of Zhang's house, burned hundreds of books in the collection, and hundreds of stones of rice millet. ”

Chun Yuyi took the order and left, Zhang Forget turned his head and instructed Zhang Mane again: "Go to Wang Yue, the first swordsman in the capital, and ask him to make a secret move, I will light the fire and commit murder Zhang Ji's slaves, none of them can escape." ”

Zhang Mane also received the order, and Zhang Forget ordered people to throw some bamboo slips and wood into the fire, and let the fire burn bigger and bigger.

At the same time, in order to prevent the fire from spreading to the neighbors, Zhang Forget sent people to dig a trench in the left and right courtyards as a separation zone to ensure that Liu Tao and Liang Yi, the servant of the imperial palace, would not suffer unjustified disasters.

With Zhang Wang's deliberate connivance, the small fire turned into a big fire, with thick smoke rising everywhere, and the flames soared into the sky, and half of Luoyang Xicheng saw it.

The neighbors Liu Tao and Liang Yi respectively sent domestic slaves to put out the fire, and the people in the nearby alleys also flocked to them, each carrying fire-fighting utensils in their hands.

Seeing that it was almost over, Zhang forgot to order the servants and the Yellow Turban soldiers to throw some rice millet around the fire, and at the same time stepped forward to put out the fire with great fanfare.

A fire extinguished invisibly, but the house where Zhang Mansion entered five times and exited five times, the first entry was almost completely destroyed in the sea of fire. The door of the house was burned, the gatehouse was burned, and several side rooms were burned, and the left and right houses were also slightly affected.

When the messenger of Luoyang Mansion came and found Zhang Kuan's bones from the fire, this incident suddenly ignited the anger of the people of Xicheng.

In the middle of summer, malicious arson, one careless, the entire Xicheng will be affected.

Because of the high cost of chiseling stones, and the technology of burning bricks is not popular, at this time, whether it is a high-ranking official or a common person, almost all the wings of the house are made of wood, and once a fire breaks out, it will form a spreading trend.

Luoyang made Zhou Yi's head almost become two big, although he was reluctant, in view of the fact that the impact of this matter was too bad, he still sent a messenger to Zhang Ji's mansion to get people.

The enslavement of Zhang's mansion was instructed by the housekeeper, and he just lit a small fire and burned the gatehouse, and by the way, he beat a few of Zhang Wang's house slaves, who would have thought that the small fire would turn into a big fire and shake the west city of Luoyang City.

When they realized that the disaster was big and wanted to run, several masked masters appeared out of nowhere, knocked them out one by one, and when they woke up again, they were already above the lobby of Luoyang Mansion.

Sikong Zhang Ji was handling official business in the imperial city, and after hearing about the incident, he hurriedly returned to the house, and after listening to the housekeeper finish telling the ins and outs of the matter, he kicked the housekeeper to the ground with hatred.

"In order to make a cheap slave angry, he actually set fire to the house of the Shi clan, you stupid thing who has not done enough to do more than anything!"

The Han Dynasty was a feudal society, and all classes of farmers and industrialists were strictly hierarchical. Zhang Jigui is one of the three princes, and he can't blatantly shield his house slaves.

Zhang Ji slapped Zhang Forget in front of him, no one would say anything, but if Zhang Ji's house slave dared to slap Zhang Wang, it would be a slave bullying his master, committing the following crimes, and messing up the code of ethics.

Setting fire to a house is much worse than slapping the face.

Zhang Ji thought for a moment with a gloomy face, and instructed the housekeeper: "You go to Luoyang Mansion immediately to report the case, and say that the person who set the fire is a fugitive slave from Zhang's Mansion, and he disappeared a few days ago. The arson was their personal anger, and it had nothing to do with my Zhang family. But despite this, our Zhang family is still kind-hearted and willing to take out some money to compensate for Zhang Wang, hoping that Zhang Wang can distinguish between right and wrong and not be too entangled in this matter. ”

The housekeeper took the order and left, Zhang Ji looked at the west of the city, and angrily threw the teacup.

If Zhang Wangfu is interested, he will temporarily let him live. If you don't know how to lift, hum, if you want to kill him, it's just to trample an ant to death.

Since Zhang forgot to arrive in Luoyang, Taiwei Yang Ci, who had not moved, sent a housekeeper to take the post, found Yin Zhouyi of Luoyang Mansion, and asked to handle the case strictly.

Zhou Yi, as Zhou Yu's father, already had a few backbones, and seeing that he had the support of the captain, he suddenly became more courageous.

The board was beaten, and the skin of the house slaves was opened, and everything happened was revealed.

Zhou Yi analyzed the facts of the case and judged that Zhang Forget was not a pure victim, he calculated that Zhang Ji was the first, and he was even more suspected of adding fuel to the fire when he was set on fire.

But at present, the crowd is angry, and the situation is one-sided, so we can't dig deeper. Once you dig deeper, you will inevitably be mistaken for accepting a bribe from Zhang Ji, reversing black and white.

Zhou Yi became wary of the unknown Zhang Forget, and after listening to Zhang Ji's housekeeper state in court that several arsonists were fugitive slaves of the Zhang family, he pronounced the crime of several house slaves in the court, and then brushed his sleeves away.

From beginning to end, Zhou Yi did not give Zhang Wei any opportunity to make a statement and defense, nor did he order Zhang Ji to compensate Zhang Wang.

The housekeeper looked at the unwilling Zhang Forget proudly, and first said stupid things like "Zhang Ji is a commonplace, a high position, and his henchmen are all over the world, and there are ways to kill you", and then pretended to be generous and offered to help Zhang Forget rebuild the old mansion with a hundred dollars.

Zhang Forget was furious at the statement of the fugitive slave, and when he saw Zhang Ji's housekeeper die like this, he sneered and walked away.

From then on, there was no end to death.
