Chapter 387: A Hot Event
Fang Zhixian gave an order, Zhang Gui shouted in the ya, and the county government of Wanping County urgently mobilized, and in an instant, more than 100 officials and errand officers of all colors gathered in the open space between the lobby and the gate. Except for those who work outside the home and those who guard the prison, they are basically all there.
Fang Zhixian is very satisfied with this efficiency, and since taking office, he has deliberately established his authority everywhere, and the effect is still good. After a brief inspection, Fang Zhixian reprimanded the old, weak, sick and disabled, leaving only sixty or seventy people who looked sturdy, and ordered: "Wait until you bring the belongings in your hands and set off with this official!" β
Zhang Gui, who claimed to be a confidant and was a fox and a fake tiger beside him, widened his eyes, could it be that the county lord planned to personally take the strong men and horses to find the Yongping Bofu Huohe in order to be angry for him?
Thinking of this, Zhang Bantou burst into tears, he has been a government official for 20 years, and he has never seen such a righteous county master! One word, benevolence and righteousness!
Zhang Bantou wiped away his tears, and walked out of the county gate with the team excitedly, and then saw the people in front of him turning east, so he couldn't help trotting to the side of the county sedan chair and whispered: "Master! The wrong way, the wrong way! β
The sedan curtain was lifted from the inside, and Fang Zhixian asked hesitantly: "What is the wrong way?" Zhang Gui diligently pointed to the west and said: "Yongping Bofu is in the west of the county government, and it shouldn't go east!" β
"What's wrong with you?" Fang Zhixian scolded, then put down the curtain and stopped talking to Zhang Bantou.
However, it is said that the people of the county government brigade went to the east, and after walking for a long time, they saw the bell and drum tower in the distance, turned north, crossed the river and entered a spacious diagonal street.
This diagonal street can directly lead to the northwest Desheng Gate, and the transportation is convenient, so the street is lined with shops. There are also many pedestrians. Suddenly, dozens of officials appeared on the street "in full armor", and everyone couldn't help but look sideways. I don't know what's going on.
Zhang Bantou was also dizzy, and felt that he had failed too much to be a henchman. I don't even know what the county lord wants to do. Several acquaintances secretly asked him just now, and he couldn't answer anything, which was really embarrassing!
Fang Yingwu got off the sedan chair and stood on the street, opposite him were two side-by-side shops, both with large fronts, both with five bays. Moreover, these two shops use the same style of signboards, and the names of the shops on them are also very similar, except that one is called Yongping Silk. The other is called Yongping Pawnshop.
Lou Tianhua pointed to the front and said, "There is no doubt that this is the store property that Yongping Bo forcibly seized." In front is the street shop, and in the back is the warehouse and the shopkeeper's quarters. β
Fang Yingwu beckoned, called Zhang Gui over, and ordered: "Order!" Seize these two properties! Zhang Gui muttered a few words in his heart, but his mouth was not slow, and he responded: "Order!" β
Fang Yingwu said: "As for the goods in the store, they are regarded as stolen goods, and they will be detained and moved back to the county office!" The big thing is borne by the official! β
Originally, the officials were also muttering. None of these officials are stupid, but it's the earl's estate, is it so easy to do?
But hearing the latter sentence, there was a small cheer from the crowd. Then the wolves rushed to the pigs, and the county lord was clearly an opportunity to make a small fortune for them!
Silk, that can be used directly as money! Pawnshop. There must be a lot of valuable things in it! Fishing this one, you can top ten or eight years of food silver! The county magistrate also said. He's got it all in his hands!
Caught off guard, the shopkeepers of the two stores still didn't understand what was going on. I saw dozens of strong men rushing in like wolves, smashing the counter without saying anything, and breaking directly into the store, and then snatching the goods, and the slow ones didn't catch up with the first wave and went directly to the back warehouse. If it weren't for the public uniform, I would have thought that this group of people was robbers! Or rather, it's no different from a robber.
There were a few brave men who wanted to stop them, but they were pushed and kicked on the ground, but fortunately, the officials were in a hurry to seize the stolen goods and had no time to do anything, so they saved their lives.
Lou Tianhua was dumbfounded, and had the same thoughts as Zhang Gui and Zhang Bantou, his henchman was in vain! I couldn't help but ask, "Proprietor, this"
Fang Yingwu didn't answer, just stood on the side of the street with a blank face, looking at the scene of chickens flying and dogs jumping in the store opposite.
In the midst of the commotion, the officials who had gained a lot of money all came out "after finishing their official business", some of them had bulging bags around their waists, some of them were covered with silk, and some of them were holding a bunch of things, but the shops had indeed been sealed, and the "stolen goods" had also been detained.
Fang Zhixian smiled and said to everyone very considerately: "Rest for a while, and then set off to return to the Yaya." β
At this moment, in the eyes of the officials, Fang Zhixian is simply a parent official who is closer than his parents, and after so many years of being a servant, he has never been so happy as he is today! I've never seen such a domineering parent official!
After a while, a shadowy group of people suddenly appeared in the distance of the street, although it was chaotic, but when it was closer, it could be seen that there were also thirty or fifty people. When there was a leader at the head, he looked quite angry.
Zhang Gui and Zhang Bantou immediately complained to the magistrate: "The one in front is the chief steward of Yongping Mansion, and this is the one who tore up the summons for a small one!" β
Lou Tianhua frowned and said, "From the point of view, this group of people seems to be battalion soldiers!" β
The prince of the Ming Dynasty is basically a martial artist, and most of the nobles have to hold military positions in the Beijing camp and the twelve guards of the pro-army, and Yongping Bo is no exception. It's just that the corrupt generation is not as good as the generation, and the later it goes, the more it is furnished, and even the battalion soldiers are about to become furnishings.
However, it is said that the current Yongping Bo inherited the title when he was only in his twenties, and it was the time when he was young and vigorous and greedy for enjoyment. Although he hung up his post in Beijing, he was too young to take up a real position, but it did not affect him to borrow a few soldiers to do private work.
Today, for example, the young Yongping Bo is calling dozens of sergeants to repair the gardens at homeβa common perk for military attachΓ©s to use as private servants.
Suddenly, Yongping Bo received a report that dozens of people had gone to the two newly opened shops to smash the field, and in a fit of rage, Yongping Bo asked the general to bring the sergeant who was repairing the garden to the rescue.
didn't mention it, but said that here on the street, everyone in the yamen of Wanping County looked at the magistrate and waited for the instructions of the county lord.
Fang Yingwu glanced at the person who came coldly, waved his hand forward, and shouted: "No matter who dares to interfere with official business, fight!" Don't let the stolen goods be snatched back! All the consequences will be borne by the official! β
Thinking that the rich "stolen goods" in their hands might be gained and lost, the officials suddenly had the psychology of hatred and hatred, Zhang Gui and Zhang Bantou finally followed the county master's train of thought, and shouted with his head and arms: "Brothers, kill!" β
Then Zhang Bantou took the lead and rushed to the middle of the street, as if he was incarnated as a peerless military general in the storytelling, majestic as if a god descended to earth, and the horizontal knife immediately shouted: "Wanping Zhang Gui is here!" Who dares to fight with me! β
Infected by Zhang Bantou's powerful aura, the surroundings fell silent, and everyone involuntarily stopped, and countless pairs of eyes stared at Zhang Bantou.
Zhang Gui stood alone in the middle of the street, a few steps in front of him were dozens of hostile battalion soldiers, almost in a situation of a hundred with a cool breeze, he suddenly shivered, turned his head and shouted to the back: "You stupid, you fucking still haven't kept up!" β
Under the example of Zhang Bantou, an advanced and typical example, he immediately saw dozens of officials rushing towards the enemy with shouts and screams.
As the saying goes, when the two armies meet, the brave wins, these ordinary Beijing soldiers have been absent from the battle formation for a long time, and they are not all in their hands in a hurry, and they have just fought with the vigorous and well-armed officials, and they have lost the upper hand.
Besides, when it comes to ordinary life, the general sergeants are bitter, and they are really not as nourishing as the officials, and they are not as strong as the officials physically, not to mention that these officers are all "elites" selected by Fangzhi County.
Therefore, after a few rounds of fighting, the scene was simply one-sided, and the battalion soldiers sent by Yongping Bofu to rescue the scene were beaten to the ground in a short time, and the chasing and killing streets were full of rats and embarrassment.
After Lou Tianhua got the signal from the magistrate, he shouted at the top of his voice: "If you see it, you will accept it!" Be lighter under your hands, don't kill anyone! After shouting a few times, his throat was a little smoky, and he only hated that there was no gong at hand, otherwise he could have come to Mingjin to withdraw the troops.
At this time, there are still many pedestrians and shops around, and they are all dumbfounded when they see this scene in front of them. More than 100 government officers and battalion soldiers fought fiercely on the bustling streets, fighting chicken feathers all over the place, this is definitely a big event, a hot event at the level of gossip of the year!
