Chapter 178: A Bunch of Waste
Red Sun Restaurant.
The best restaurant in Xinyang City is also the closest restaurant to Lu Mansion, at this moment the owner of the restaurant, Li Si, looked at Lu Yuan and the others who poured into the restaurant with a pale face, just a minute ago, Lu Yuan rushed in directly with a group of officials, directly dispersed the diners who were eating in the restaurant, and drove Li Si out of the room.
"My lord, what did the little one do? How could the big man be so heavy on the small restaurant?" Li Si swallowed, swallowing, and his words were a little indistinct.
Without waiting for Lu Yuan to speak, Steward Lu said, "Li Si, your business has been committed!"
Li Si glanced at Steward Lu, and immediately understood that it was his previous refusal to send food to the Lu Mansion that angered Lu Yuan, so he immediately shouted: "Steward Lu, I just won't take your order, you don't need to find Lord Lu to do such a heavy hand, right?
"You're asking about justice, and you're asking about jurisprudence, then I'm going to ask you, according to commercial law, merchants are not allowed to refuse customers for no reason, what do you have to say?" Steward Lu sneered.
Commercial law?
Li Si looked stunned, and suddenly remembered that he had long forgotten the law, the commercial law is a legal provision specially formulated by Daqin to regulate businessmen to do business, everyone who does business must act according to the commercial law, Li Si naturally knows some of the contents of the commercial law, which does not refuse to accept customers for no reason.
Can...... Li Si shouted injustice: "When did I refuse to pick up customers for no reason?"
"Yes. Steward Lu said with a smile: "Don't say it's far away, just say it's close, to be precise, let's say me, did I come to your store an hour ago and ask you to order food?"
"Yes, I didn't take the order, but I was really too busy at the time to take your order. Li Si quibbled.
"Yes, so I didn't say anything, just to tell you that you have to put the list on our house empty, and for this reason I have registered with you, and it is numbered. Steward Lu said, took out a note from his cuff, pointed to the order list at the front desk of the restaurant, and said, "You can't deny this!"
"This ......" Li Si gritted his teeth and nodded, the facts were there, he couldn't deny it, so he had to argue strongly: "Then I'm busy here, I'm embarrassed to forget it, you can't just punish me like this!"
"I'll ask you again. Steward Lu didn't pay attention to Li Si, but took out another note and said, "Half an hour ago, did I go to your restaurant again and say the same thing to you?"
"This ......" Li Si's face turned pale, and he finally didn't dare to quibble, he thought that Steward Lu was casually talking, and he never thought that people were waiting for him here.
"Hehe, twice, refusing to pick up customers, your behavior has violated the laws of Great Qin, according to the law, you should be beaten in public and serve hard labor for half a month. Steward Lu looked at Li Si with a smile.
Li Si collapsed to the ground and shouted, "I want to redeem it!"
Ransom, which is also a provision in the laws of Daqin, means that if a person who violates the law makes a big mistake, he can pay a certain ransom to atone for his sin after requesting the punishment of the official, this article is very unfair, and it was also because of the shortage of funds in the imperial court that it was established to make money, but this clause has a premise, that is, the consent of the punishment official is required.
And the sentencing officer present, Xinyang Ling Lu Yuan said expressionlessly: "This official refuses to redeem and buy, beat!"
"Lord Lu, you can't beat me, the little one is also acting according to orders!" Li Si hurriedly shouted: "Someone is in the name of the Zhao family, so that the small ones are not allowed to sell things to the Lu Mansion, and the small ones are also helpless, the small ones are old and young, but they don't dare to offend the Zhao family!"
"Don't you dare to offend the Zhao family?" Steward Lu grinned and sneered: "Then you dare to offend our Lu family?"
Li Si immediately stopped, and then he remembered that the Zhao family was indeed terrifying, but the one in front of him was equally terrifying, how could he be so obsessed with his mind and get involved in this right and wrong.
Li Si, who wanted to cry without tears, was dragged directly to the street by the officials, beaten ten boards in public, and then separated two people to carry Li Si to the hard labor camp, as for the Red Sun Restaurant, the clerks were all driven out and directly put a seal.
A huge restaurant is annihilated in an instant, even if he opens it again in the future, it will be difficult to see the glory.
The officials happily followed Lu away, leaving behind a smashed messy restaurant, the officials liked to follow the adults to do this kind of thing, and the adults were responsible for the matter, and they and others followed behind them, so unhappy.
In the quiet courtyard, Zhao Si held the teacup, and his heart was very uneasy.
"Childe, the informant in the Lu Mansion came with the news that Zhao San asked Lu Yuan to beat 20 boards on the charge of swaggering and gathering people to make trouble, and then let people send them to the hard labor camp. ”
"Childe, the servants of the Lu Mansion are all panicked now, one by one the six gods have no master, and there are already many people kneeling there to confess to Lu Yuan, and some of them even made very unfavorable remarks to our Zhao family. ”
"Childe, the informant in the Lu Mansion is now sending a message asking what we should do?"
"Childe, the Red Sun Restaurant asked Lu Yuan to bring people to seal it, and the owner of the restaurant, Li Si, asked Lu Yuan to beat Lu Yuan on the grounds that he violated the commercial law by refusing to accept customers, and was imprisoned in a hard labor camp. ”
"Childe, Lu Yuan led people to seal up seven restaurants in one go, all of which were restaurants that refused to provide food to Lu Mansion before, and the owners of the other seven restaurants also put Lu Yuan in a hard labor camp, what is Lu Yuan going to do?
"Childe, the gentry behind a few restaurants came to ask us what to do, how do we reply?"
Zhao Si slammed the cup in his hand to the ground, stared viciously at the attendant who had been reporting the news to him, and scolded: "What's the matter with you? Isn't there any good news? And those gentry, they have been entrenched in Xinyang City for many years, don't they have a little way?"
"This, Childe, it happened suddenly, no one expected Lu Yuan to be so ruthless, many people didn't get the news, and they didn't react. ”
"That's not a reason!" Zhao Si glared and said, "Let those people close the restaurant, what do I think Lu Yuan should do? Who does he confiscate and arrest?"
The follower was ordered to go, but after a while, he ran back with a sad face, and said with a bitter face: "Childe, the Pan family restaurant listened to the words of the son and closed the door, but after Lu Yuan arrived at the scene, he directly sentenced Pan Shaojiu, the owner of the Pan family restaurant, to the crime of absconding in fear of the crime, and the crime was increased by one degree, and ordered the left and right criminal departments to pursue the whole world, and the Pan family restaurant was also sealed, and the other restaurants are now hurriedly opening the door, one by one, and they don't know what to do at all?"
"A bunch of waste!" Zhao Si was furious: "I also pointed out that they could help me fight with Lu Yuan, this is just the beginning, they are at a loss, so what is the use of them?
He didn't dare to speak at all, and after a long time, Zhao Sicai said: "Since ancient times, the people don't fight with officials, so the officials may fight with officials? Let our people go to Lu Yuan, I want to see if Lu Yuan dares to beat people?"
