"Dugu Valve?" A touch of anger flashed between Lu Bu's eyebrows, and his voice was a little cold: "It seems that we are too polite to these people."

At least seventy percent of Luoyang City's taxes come from these wealthy families, many of these wealthy families are families that have been operating in Luoyang City for a hundred years, with deep roots.

However, they didn't see the situation clearly, the reason why Wang Shichong accommodated them was because Wang Shichong's foundation was in the Luoyang area, and Luoyang was his interests, and once these people were moved, his interests would also suffer great losses.

But Lu Bu is different, in addition to Luoyang, Lu Bu also sits on Jiangdong, Huainan, Jiangdu, Jingzhou and even Lingnan, Luoyang for him, although the interests are not either, but the symbolic meaning of the imperial capital is greater.

Xu Xingzhi on the side looked at the evil anger on Lu Bu's face, and sighed secretly in his heart, someone is going to be unlucky, but he didn't stop it, the water in Luoyang is too deep, far from other places, just a family with one surname, as long as the city lord is killed, this place will belong to Lu Bu.

And according to the information obtained by the intelligence network of the Jukun Gang for many years, some of these wealthy families are attached to the Dugu Valve, some are attached to the Li Valve and even Wagang, and now that Lu Bu has just arrived in Luoyang, he wants to give Lu Bu a dismount, can they still expect an accident in Luoyang in the future, are they of the same mind as Lu Bu?

Lu Bu has just entered Luoyang, and his foundation in Luoyang is indeed unstable, but Lu Bu is a strong party, and these families, no matter how noisy they are, they can't change the fact that Lu Bu has become the lord of Luoyang. On the contrary, it may anger Lu Bu, and if you want to say that no one is behind your back, you don't believe it.

At this moment, a Blood Wolf Guard Commander hurriedly came to Lu Bu's temporary mansion and asked to see Lu Bu.

"What's the matter?" Lu Bu called him in and asked.

"Lord Wang, our people have been detained by the people of the Zhang family" The face of the commander of the Blood Wolf Guard is not very good-looking, and it is the first time that the Blood Wolf Guard has encountered such a thing since he became an army.

"What?" Lu Buhu was stunned, and a bloody murderous aura instantly filled the entire room.

"What the hell is going on?" The Void looked at the Commander.

The Zhang family was extremely arrogant during the period when Lu Bu entered Luoyang, Lu Bu was newly settled in Luoyang, naturally focusing on the people, and the first thing to do was to suppress the grain price in Luoyang, and the Zhang family was the grain tycoon in Luoyang, and this matter, naturally, violated the interests of the Zhang family.

To Lu Bu's surprise, the Zhang family had an unusually tough attitude in this matter, especially after the news of Li Yuanji's army and Shan Xiongxin's killing battle in Hanguguan came to Luoyang, they acted even more unscrupulously, plus he united with several wealthy families, there were tens of thousands of Jiading alone, but the forces that were not strong, if they sent troops to suppress it, one was not good, and it might provoke a popular uprising.

But the Zhang family was written down by Lu Bu, and in the subsequent investigation, the Zhang family is the branch of Li Tang's Chai family in Luoyang, the assets of the Chai family are all over the world, and the influence of the businessmen is great, Chai Shao died in Lu, these years, the Chai family has not given Lu Bu a stumbling block, but unfortunately, Lu Bu is based in the south, and Lu Bu controls the salt road, although the influence of the Chai family is great, but the businessman makes profits, Lu Bu monopolizes the entire salt and weapons trading, and the Chai family cannot interfere at all.

Now, Lu Bu has come to Luoyang, here, the influence of the Chai family is far greater than that of the south, and the Zhang family controls the grain trade related to the people's livelihood, and monopolizes the entire Luoyang area together with the Dugu valve, which can be said to have taken Lu Bu's vein, after all, Lu Bu Luoyang City has a population of more than 10 million, Lu Bu has been fighting for many years, and there is not much grain in the granaries in various places, and it is impossible to transport food from all over the country, which makes Zhang Jiayue unscrupulous.

Today's incident, the people of the Zhang family wantonly spread rumors in the city, and were caught by Lu Bu's soldiers, but they were rescued by the people of the Zhang family, not only that, but also arrested a general and hundreds of soldiers, and threatened to ask Lu Bu to give them an explanation.

"Bang"

The table made of sandalwood was slapped into powder by Lu Bu's palm, Lu Bu's eyes were cold, Huo Ran stood up, and said sharply: "Where is Lu Hu?"

Lu Hu's burly figure instantly appeared in front of Lu Bu, and arched his hand: "Lord Wang." ”

"Immediately notify all gates, close the city gates today, and no one is allowed to enter except for our army scouts," Lu Bu said coldly.

"Obey" Lu Bu took Lu Bu's token expressionlessly, turned to go out, Lu Bu looked at the leader of the Blood Wolf Guard and said: "Gather the Blood Wolf Guard, I want to see what kind of explanation this Zhang family wants" The voice contained infinite anger, which made people feel cold all over the body.

"The prince" took a step forward and was about to speak, but Lu Bu waved his hand: "You don't need to persuade you anymore, this breath, not only the king can't swallow it, but even the sons of the three armies can't swallow it."

"Lord, it's not to dissuade, it's just that this matter, I'm afraid it can't be separated from the Dugu family, the prince should use thunderous means, as long as the Zhang family can be solved quickly, most of the merchants in Luoyang City will calm down, and when the time comes, I'm afraid that Dugu Valve will also be difficult to support alone" said with a bow of the void.

"Rest assured." Lu Bu nodded, and then said, "You help me run to the Pegasus Ranch, and tell Mr. Lu that I want to enter the Yang Gong's treasure house."

Although the Tang Dynasty Shuanglong Biography has a more detailed annotation of the Yang Gong Treasure House, Lu Miaozi is the founder of the Yang Gong Treasure House, when he was in the Pegasus Ranch, Lu Bu did not ask about it, but now, the money in his hands is not turnover, Jingzhou and Luoyang have just been pacified, and a lot of money and grain are needed to govern, Lu Bu does not want to be held by one or two businessmen.

Huainan's Haiyan and Dongming faction's weapons trading is indeed very profitable, but far water can't quench the thirst, now Lu Bu needs money and food, unless these two ways to make money are sold, it is impossible to come up with enough money at once, drinking water to quench thirst, the previous dynasty has confirmed its harm, Lu Bu will never transfer these businesses related to the lifeblood of the country to any force, and now, it can only rely on the treasures in Yang Gong's treasury.

The eyes of the void line froze, and he bowed down and said, "Do it." ”

……

Zhang Yunsheng is the current head of the Zhang family, his figure is not as bloated as an ordinary businessman, but rather burly, sitting comfortably at home at this time, squinting his eyes, enjoying the massage of the pretty maid.

Although most of the money has to be handed over to the Chai family, it is only the part that the Chai family gave him is enough to make his entire Zhang family into this Luoyang City, the top big family.

Moreover, the Chai family has promised him that this time the matter is successful, after Luoyang is in the hands of the Li family, the Chai family will release some more profits to him, and when the time comes, the Zhang family will definitely go to the next level.

Businessmen also have the ambitions of businessmen, especially in this era, the status of businessmen is far higher than that of the Han Dynasty, so that the Zhang family can become a big family comparable to the Chai family, it is Zhang Yunsheng's lifelong dream, therefore, he did not hesitate to offend Lu Bu, in order to seek wealth and danger.

As a businessman, especially a businessman who offended a prince, Zhang Yunsheng has his own means to save his life, the Zhang family operates a grain business, but most of the grain is hidden everywhere, and few people know about it, which is why he dares to openly disobey Lu Bu's orders, he believes that Lu Bu is now short of food, and under the rat taboo, he will definitely not really do anything to his Zhang family.

Thinking that Lu Buken could come to apologize to him in person for a while, there was a strange excitement in his heart, as a businessman, he could do it to the point of making the princes of one side bow their heads, and he was unprecedented.

"Hmph, the Dugu family is too bold, and they have a handle in their hands, why bother to please Na Lu Bu?" A touch of disdain flashed in Zhang Yunsheng's eyes, as the two nails buried by Li Tang in Luoyang, although the people below didn't know, but as the head of the Zhang family, he couldn't know that the Dugu family and him were in the same boat.

It's just that he is quite dissatisfied with Dugujia's behavior.

"Boom"

The earth-shattering sound of horses' hooves interrupted Zhang Yunsheng's conjecture, and the housekeeper of the Zhang family hurriedly ran in and said to Zhang Yunsheng: "Master, it's not good, King Yu personally brought someone here."

"What's the panic?" Zhang Yunsheng glanced at the housekeeper dissatisfied, he now has the initiative, why should he be afraid of being like this, he was very leisurely dressed and neat, and then said leisurely: "Let's go, let's go and meet this King Yu"

"Boom" At this moment, there was a violent sound, mixed with a string of screams, Lu Bu with people, had already rushed in, two thousand blood wolf guards, quickly surrounded the entire Zhang family, Lu Bu was dressed in a purple robe, wearing a long sword at his waist, chasing the wind under his crotch was majestic, with a momentum of looking down on all beings, surrounded by a bloody wolf guard general, slowly came in.

Zhang Yunsheng's heart sank, looking at Lu Bu's posture, it didn't look like he was coming to talk about peace at all, but his face was silent, looking at Lu Bu, his face was a little gloomy, and he said in a deep voice: "The prince is so majestic." ”

"You're talking to me?" Lu Bu's eyes fell on Zhang Yunsheng's face, and there was no special fluctuation in his voice, but Zhang Yunsheng could really feel the pressure from Lu Bu, which he had never felt, even when facing Wang Shichong, Dugu Feng and even Li Shimin, he didn't have this feeling, and his eyes sank and said: "Naturally." ”

"Palm" Lu Bu's voice sounded, and in an instant, Zhang Yunsheng only felt that the black shadow in front of him flickered, and a tall and thin figure had already arrived in front of him, and raising his hand was a slap, and he fanned Zhang Yunsheng out three feet away.

"Ahem" Zhang Yunsheng felt a burst of blood churning, coughed up a few teeth in his mouth, but he was horrified in his heart, he could be a figure in Luoyang City, squeezing into the upper class society with the position of a businessman, he was naturally not useless, and he also had good martial arts, but in front of the black shadow, he didn't even have a chance to resist.

glared at Lu Bu angrily, and said in a deep voice: "Lord, don't deceive people too much" Okay, he is also the head of the family, and there are several people in Luoyang City, so he was slapped a loud slap in front of everyone, so how can he save face?

"Too much deception?" The corners of Lu Bu's mouth pulled up a sneer of disdain: "Since this king entered Luoyang, you have been against this king, first raising the price of grain, trapping the people in disregard, and then gathering people to make trouble, refusing to pay taxes, and now, it is even more openly arresting this king's soldiers, you are just a businessman, who is it that gives you such courage?" ”

"Is it too much?" Zhang Yunsheng had an indescribable realization in his heart, these days, he thought that he had something to rely on, and his actions were inevitably a little out of line, and he didn't take into account Lu Bu's face at all, but he didn't want to, even the top gate valve like the Dugu family had to take care of Lu Bu's face, and he didn't dare to act too arrogant, but he openly detained Lu Bu's people, and threatened to ask Lu Bu to give him an explanation

This, for any prince, I am afraid it is unbearable, not to mention characters like Lu Bu, Zhang Yunsheng in his heart, at this moment, he can't help but regret a little, he knew that this was the case, he should have been like Dugu Valve in the first place, be more stable, at least wait until Li Yuanji breaks through Hangu Pass, and the army is in Luoyang.

At the same time, there is also a trace of resentment towards Dugu Feng in his heart, since he is on the same boat, why don't he make a mention of it, but now, it has caused the Zhang family to suffer a tragedy.

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed in his heart, and at the same time he understood the reason why Lu Bu was like this, but there was no turning back when he opened the bow, and there was no regret about selling medicine in this world, if he wanted to blame, he could only blame him for being too self-righteous, in order to show loyalty to Li Valve, he offended Lu Bu to death, but he didn't know that now that Li Valve and Lu Bu are separated from Luoyang, Chang'an, Li Shimin is beyond the reach of the whip even if he wants to protect him.

There was a trace of remorse in his heart, but there was no compromise on his face, he knew very well that at this time, if Lu Bu was determined to destroy him, even if he knelt down and begged, Lu Bu would not be soft-hearted, since this was the case, why not go out and fight hard and have a good fight with Lu Bu

After making up his mind, Zhang Yunsheng looked at Lu Bu coldly, and said coldly: "Hmph, the grain belongs to Zhang, and the price at which it is sold is naturally up to Zhang. Zhang Yunsheng has already made up his mind in his heart, anyway, his family and important family members have been secretly sent out of Luoyang a few days ago, and now he is single, what is there to be afraid of.

"Hehe, the head of the Zhang family is really a good man." With a chuckle, Shen Luoyan led a few people to Lu Bu's side from the rear.

When his eyes fell on those few people, Zhang Yunsheng's eyes changed suddenly, these people were the important people in the family who were sent out of Luoyang a few days ago, and even his only son

"Luoyang is now the king's territory, since you dare to openly disobey the king, do you still want to protect the family?" Lu Bu looked at Zhang Yunsheng and sneered.

"Puff" Zhang Yunsheng could no longer maintain his previous hardness, and knelt softly in front of Lu Bu, with a hint of pleading in his voice: "Lord Wang, people are willing to hand over all the money and food in the family, and people dare not ask the prince for forgiveness, just ask the prince to keep a trace of blood in the Zhang family for the sake of these money and grain." ”

"It's late" Shen Luoyan shook his head gently, a touch of evil flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Zhang Yunsheng and said.

The young man looked sad, looked at Zhang Yunsheng and said sadly: "Father, Shen Luoyan has taken all the positions of those branches out of the child's mouth."

The young man is just a fledgling stunned youth, how can he hide his secret in front of Shen Luoyan.

"Despicable" Zhang Yunsheng's eyes flashed with a touch of grief and indignation, and suddenly burst into trouble and pounced on Shen Luoyan, he was self-aware, and Lu Bu, he did not have the slightest chance of winning, but Shen Luoyan was different, she was famous for her wisdom, but few people mentioned her martial arts.

"Poof"

A golden hairpin suddenly appeared in Shen Luoyan's hand, mercilessly piercing into his eyebrows, Zhang Yunsheng's eyes widened unwillingly, he couldn't believe it until he died, Shen Luoyan had such skills, his vitality gradually cut off, and in Zhang's mansion, a sound of crying and grabbing the ground sounded.

"Kill one and leave no one" Lu Bu glanced at Zhang Yunsheng coldly, and his voice sounded without the slightest emotion, Zhang Fu must be slaughtered today, not only to vent his anger, but also to make an example of killing chickens and monkeys, and to warn those who have illusions that he Lu Bu's advantage is not so easy to take advantage of.
