Chapter 52: Conflict

This middle-aged man is in his forties, with a rich face and figure, wearing a silk shirt with a round neck, and after he walked into the store, he anxiously counted down the Zheng lady: "Uncle has only been out for a few days, you will do such a thing, in the past, you sold grain at a low price Uncle didn't say it, this time it is like this, it annoys everyone, be careful of the trouble coming to the door."

He smiled and said: "Mrs. Zheng operates with integrity, Wang admires." ”

The middle-aged man only noticed Wang Dou and a few people at this time, and he said suspiciously: "Who are these people?" ”

Mrs. Zheng reluctantly smiled, and she said, "Uncle, I almost forgot, my niece came to introduce you to ......"

She was about to speak, when suddenly there was a burst of angry shouting, followed by a loud crowd and pedestrians dodging. In a rage, several businessmen-like men rushed in with a group of strong men, each with sticks in their hands, and crowded a shop, and the people who sold grain were driven away.

shouted for a businessman: "Zheng Laosi, you Wan Shenghe has gone too far, and you have openly raised the price, but have you taken the Chamber of Commerce into account?" ”

Another merchant said: "Yes, Zheng Laosi, you Wan Shenghe is doing this, you are ruining the livelihood of our rice shop." ”

"Cutting off people's financial resources, such as killing parents ......"

In the midst of angry accusations, the middle-aged man Zheng Laosi was just in a hurry, he shook his hand again and again and said: "Misunderstanding, this is all a misunderstanding, please listen to my explanation." ”

A merchant said, "Don't bother with him, smash the rice shop for me." ”

The group of strong men was about to rush up, and the girl screamed loudly.

"Boom!" With a loud bang, a table was kicked to pieces, and sawdust flew everywhere!

But it was Gao Shiyin who jumped out and kicked the table in front of him away.

He shouted angrily, pulled out his waist knife, and said loudly: "Who dares to do it? Lao Tzu slashed him with a knife! ”

Everyone was immediately silent, and the group of men who rushed up also stood dumbfounded. ”

A few people sat down and drank, Zheng Jinglun talked about his rice shop, it turned out that they were from Ulzhou, Shanxi, and they were a branch of the Jin merchants, but they had a small profit, of course, they could not be compared with those Jin merchants. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the eight families of the Jin merchants, the Wang family, the Jin family, the Fan family, the Liang family, the Tian family, the Zhai family, and the Huang family, all had a trade point in Zhangjiakou, and the Mongols and Jurchens outside the Saiwai were closely connected.

Wang Dou had no good impression of the merchants in the late Ming Dynasty, hoarded Juqi, raised prices, and was extremely poor and luxurious, especially the Jin merchants, who played a dishonorable role in the history of the late Ming Dynasty. Zheng Jinglun's family slightly changed their impression of businessmen in the late Ming Dynasty.

After listening to Zheng Jinglun's business history, it was indeed very difficult, Wang Dou smiled and said: "My Tunpu, at present, there are also hundreds of households, hundreds of mouths, and a lot of rice and grain. ”

Zheng Jinglun was overjoyed, today he was blessed by misfortune, and he suddenly got an important source of customers, and Wang Dou and their forces are good, and they can also rely on themselves.

He stood up, made a deep bow, and said, "In this way, I have thanked Lord Wang." ”

Wang Dou smiled and nodded, with the expansion of the population of his territory, the demand for various resources is increasing, maybe this Zheng Jinglun can help him find the source of those goods.

Gao Shiyin saw that Zheng Jinglun was so polite to his own adults, and that he was so famous, he also sat proudly, he drank and ate food in a big gulp, while just looking at Zheng Xiaoyun with his eyes, and she was even more ashamed. Like him, Zheng Niangzi, who was sitting next to Zheng Xiaoyun, looked at Han Chao from time to time. Han Zhong and Zhong Tiaoyang saw the fame, and they both looked at Han Chao with teasing eyes, and Han Chao just ate and drank with his head bored.

Talking about what happened just now, Zheng Jinglun sighed: "I have offended the Chamber of Commerce now, I am afraid that it will be difficult, especially the sons and nephews of the Li family are all small and general armor of the people in the city, I am afraid that they will find a reason in the future, and come over from time to time to make trouble, our kind of small shop, alas, ......"

Wang Dou nodded, in addition to the defense of the 1,000 troops led by Xu Zucheng in Baozhou, there are also more than 200 people in the city, which are directly led by Zhizhou in peacetime and controlled by ethics in wartime.

The group of people on the opposite side saw Wang Dou and a few people, and stopped suddenly. Then the burly chief armor shouted: "These are the soldiers, brothers, we went up and arrested them." ”

And the people will come forward again. The thin general armor looked at it carefully, and he shouted violently: "Gao Man, how could it be you?" ”

Gao Shiyin also looked at it, and he shouted: "Li Tianxu, Li Tiancheng, it turned out to be you." ”

He laughed and said, "You want to come and catch me? ”

The thin man Li Tianxu and the burly man Li Tiancheng had ugly faces, and everyone over there also said: "It turned out to be a high barbarian, how could it be him." ”

"This guy is an outlaw, not easy to deal with."

"On weekdays, they are brothers who eat and drink together, so it's hard to start."

Listening to the movement over there, Wang Dou and the others all glanced at Gao Shiyin, this guy has a wide range of exchanges, and he knows so many people in the state city.

Li Tianxu's face was gloomy, and he shouted loudly: "Gao Man, this matter has nothing to do with you, don't get involved." ”

Gao Shiyin shouted: "Who said that it is none of my business, from today on, this matter of ten thousand victories and harmony is my Gao Shiyin's business!" ”

Li Tiancheng shouted: "Gao Manzi, don't be ignorant, no matter how brave you are, there are so many of us, will we not be able to take you?" ”

Gao Shiyin laughed and said: "My old Gao is not even afraid of Tartars, and he will be afraid of you cowards?" Even though the horses were released, my family, and a few of my brothers and I had already had itchy hands. ”

The faces of the people over there changed greatly, and they all said: "A few people over there won't be the ones who killed the Tartars, right?" I heard that nine of them killed ten Tartars! ”

"The fierce man behind the high barbarian can't be that Wang Dou, that's a killing god, and he killed five Tartars alone."

That Yang Dongmin led a few horses to Li Tianxu and the others, and shouted condescendingly: "Why are you making trouble here? ”

Li Tianxu hurriedly said respectfully: "Lord Yang, how dare the little one make trouble, it was someone who reported Wansheng and the rice shop for disturbing the market, and invited a few soldiers to commit murder and hurt people, and the small one came to check and understand, look, my lord, it is the people in front." ”

Yang Dongmin snorted, glanced at Li Tianxu coldly, and rode his horse to Wang Dou and the others.

Wang Dou and a few people got off the horse, Yang Dongmin's eyes were as sharp as knives, just looked at Wang Dou and a few people, he shouted: "Which sergeant of Tunbao are you, why are you murdering and hurting people in the state city?" ”

Wang Dou came out of the crowd, he clasped his fists and saluted: "Back to the adults, the small one is Wang Dou, the tun chief of Jingbian Fort, who came to the state city today and did not commit murder and hurt people. ”

He clearly explained the cause and effect, and said, "My lord, this is the way it is, please be aware of it." ”

Yang Dongmin ignored what Wang Dou said, he just looked at Wang Dou carefully for a while and said, "Wang Dou? Are you the Wang Dou of Dongjiazhuang? ”

Wang Dou hugged his fists and said: "Back to the adult, the small one is exactly." ”

He untied his waist card and handed it to Yang Dongmin for inspection, Yang Dongmin took the waist card in his hand and looked at it for a while, and then threw it back to Wang Dou. With a smile on his face, he said: "I have heard that there is a king in Dongjiazhuang who is extremely brave, and he killed ten Tartars with nine people, and he is really a brave man, and Lord Xu often mentions you in front of me." ”

He laughed loudly, and several family members behind him looked at Wang Dou, and they also exchanged glances with each other, all of them showing well-deserved expressions. Seeing Yang Dongmin like this, Han Chao and the others behind Wang Dou were all happy, this Lord Yang said this, it seems that everyone is okay today.
