Chapter 102: Imprisoned
The Liuli Factory is worth more than ten Hui Bafang, they know this, and Zhongli also knows it.
Hearing Zhong Li's words, Zhong Liyu's face changed, and he said, "But ......"
"Big brother, you just have to do what I say." Zhongli said firmly.
Staring into Zhong Li's eyes, Zhong Liyu had no choice but to nod her head in agreement, even though her heart was dripping blood.
These officials were only the lowest people, and naturally they didn't know what their superiors wanted to do, so they didn't stop them. In addition, he has only been here for a long time, and he doesn't know the value of Zhongli's glaze factory at all, and when he later knows that this move is to take down Zhongli's glaze factory, but after he missed the glaze factory because of his negligence, his life has also come to an end, but this is all an afterthought, the official in front of him stared at the verbose Zhongli, frowned and said, "Enough, right?" Don't go yet. ”
Zhongli glanced at his younger siblings and followed the servants away.
Seeing Zhong Li being taken away, everyone in the Zhong family felt bad in their hearts, including the subordinates of the Zhong family's mansion and the nearby villagers who rushed to the scene after receiving the news. But they can only take a look, although they know that Zhongli is absolutely innocent, but the other party is the prefect, and it is not something that ordinary people like them can compete with.
The children of the Zhong family all came out to watch Zhongli being taken away, and along the way, Zhongli's back was straight, and he did not have the slightest consciousness as a prisoner, but seemed to be patrolling the surroundings.
The corners of the officer's mouth twitched, but he didn't say anything, anyway, when the time came to enter the cell, the hard bones would be crushed by him.
When their team completely disappeared, Zhong Liyue sorted out his emotions, looked at Zhong Liyu and said, "Big brother, are we really going to smash the Liuli Factory?" "They watched it build little by little, and they had a certain affection for that place.
"Smash." Although Zhong Liyu didn't think as much as Zhong Li, after this incident, she also vaguely understood why the other party came. Sometimes, the sin of cherishing them is also the greatest sin, and they will not be able to keep these things without power.
Compared with others, his feelings for Liulichang are much deeper than theirs, not only does he live in Liulichang these days, but it is also a place where she and Wang Qinglin have deep memories.
"Okay, then we'll go ourselves." Zhong Liyue stood up, he hated, hated that he was not capable of protecting the second sister, but he knew that before he had enough ability, he had to remain silent and not drag the second brother back.
"Okay." Zhong Liyu reached out and touched the other party's head, sighed softly, and then took the four children and walked towards the glaze factory together.
And the group of people behind also followed silently, no one spoke, and the atmosphere of the whole scene was particularly depressing.
Zhong Liyu first gathered all the workers together, and then asked Rubai to prepare a sum of silver, and then said: "Everyone, this is your deed of sale, as well as the silver, take this money and your deed, go where you want to go!" Probably the Zhong family can't protect you anymore! ”
"Eldest Prince, what the hell happened?" The second child stood up and said, "Why did they take the second son away?" "They're used to this place, they're used to being with everybody, and they don't want to leave.
He asked what the others were saying, and everyone nodded their heads quickly.
"I don't know what's going on, but I don't want to bother you." Zhong Liyu has been here for a long time, and she has some feelings with these workers, and she naturally doesn't want these people to leave, but now that the situation is forcing her, she can't help it.
"Eldest Prince, no matter what happens, we won't leave." All the workers looked at each other for a moment, and one of them stood up and said.
"yes, we're not leaving." More people said.
"But ......" Zhong Liyu looked at these workers, not knowing what to say for a while.
"Eldest Prince, no matter what happens, we will stay here and swear to protect the glaze factory." The second baby took the lead.
"Yes, the glaze factory is our home, and we will protect it." The workers said again.
Listening to the words of the workers, Zhong Liyu and several children of the Zhong family were shocked in their hearts, they didn't expect that there were people who were willing to advance and retreat with them at a critical moment.
But it was precisely because of this that she could not let them make unnecessary sacrifices.
"Guys, listen to me first." Zhong Liyu is no longer the same person she used to be, she is almost reborn now, completely different from before.
As soon as Zhong Liyu spoke, all the workers stopped and waited for her next step.
"I know your good intentions, but I already have a new plan, you take this money, go home first, and if you need it later, I will come to you." Zhong Liyu left a way back for everyone, after all, no one can say what will happen in the future.
Seeing that Zhong Liyu was so sincere, the second child glanced at his father and said, "Why don't we stay here?" Externally, we are free beings? Besides, the second son is not here, we may be able to help a little. "He is actually taking a risk when he says this, since ancient times, it has been said that the people do not fight with the officials, they are all ordinary people, where dare to go against the government.
But Zhongli was taken away by the government, and if something happened, they would have to go against the government, which not everyone could do.
Zhong Liyu sniffed, the woman was sensitive, she had already covered her mouth and had already whimpered, but Zhong Liyue stood up, his body had grown a lot taller, she solemnly stood up to everyone, "Thank you, then, so be it!" Everyone came here first to get their stuff! ”
"Since the third prince said so, then let's go back and take it first." Father Wang sighed softly, and also stood up and said, his eyes were a little complicated when he looked at Zhong Liyu's children, how old are they! The people here are all headed by him, so naturally he has the final say, and they all agree to go back first.
Zhong Liyu nodded, and said, "Rubai, send all the money." ”
Rubai nodded, sent money one by one according to the list, and returned to Zhong Liyu's back.
"Finally, I have one more thing I want you to help with." Zhong Liyu spoke.
"Eldest Prince, please say, these are what we should do." The second baby was busy.
"Smash the glass factory for me." Zhong Liyu said word by word.
God knows that her heart was bleeding when she said this, but instead of cheapening others, it was better to destroy it with her own hands. In some ways, she and Zhongli are actually the same.
"Eldest Prince, what are you talking about?" The second baby stared at Zhong Liyu in disbelief, a little suspicious that she was dreaming.
"I said, smashed the glass factory." Zhong Liyu repeated, and said to the children behind him: "What are you still doing in a daze, go quickly." ”
Zhong Liyue, Zhong Lixian and Zhong Liyun glanced at each other, and in the end, Zhong Liyue stood up first, took a hammer and blasted at the unnamed thing in the middle, and with a bang, everything turned into pieces.
"Third brother!" Zhong Lijue was very distressed, but he didn't stop Zhong Liyue, but grabbed the hammer in the hand of the person next to him and threw it forward with all his might.
The second child and the other workers looked at the third son who seemed to be crazy, gritted their teeth, and smashed it over, and the other two children glanced at each other and joined the team. They can't use hammers, but they can still smash things.
Only Zhong Liyu has been standing in place, watching the glaze factory become a ruin.
With tears in her eyes, Zhong Liyu raised her head and poured the tears back. That's fine, no one will think about the idea of playing the glass factory in the future.
"Everyone is doing very well, now, let's go to the glass house outside Zhuangzi for a meal, and then everyone will go back." Zhong Liyu's voice was calm, and she couldn't hear her hidden heartache at all.
"Okay." The second baby took a look at the things that she was usually reluctant to touch at will, and she was smashed to pieces, and her mood was very complicated.
Zhong Liyu didn't look at everyone, turned around and walked towards Zhuangzi. After greeting everyone to eat, all the workers dragged their families back to the house that Zhongli had prepared for them.
The glaze factory has changed from the original bustle to the original deserted, even worse than before.
In the evening, Zhong Liyu took Rubai to Liuli Factory, looking at the ruins, Zhong Liyu couldn't help crying suppressedly. Liulichang is like a child who she carefully raised, and now the child has finally grown up and is sensible, but she destroyed it with her own hands, and this feeling is not experienced by ordinary people.
"Boom!" A flash of thunder flashed in the sky, and Bai Se shrank his body and proposed, "Eldest prince, let's go back." ”
Zhong Liyu took one last look at the glaze factory and nodded, "Okay." ”
Now that Liulichang is gone, Zhongli is also in prison, and she, the eldest brother, should also stand up and shield her younger brothers and sisters.
Back on the Zhuangzi, she took a peaceful bath, and then lay down on the bed and slept peacefully.
The next morning, she got up to write an advertisement. The gist is that the awakened prefect occupies the industry and oppresses the good people. Influenced by Zhongli, she wrote this advertisement with tears, making those who saw it cry and those who heard it pondered.
Not long after it was posted in Huibafang, almost the entire Canggu City knew about the prefect's oppression of the people, and they panicked.
In their hearts, the Zhong family is a good person, not only helping the people, but also helping many orphans, these achievements are not possessed by those high-ranking officials, but now, the prefect actually oppresses the Zhong family.
Soon, the people in the city rushed to complain, and for a while, there was an uproar in Canggu City.
At the same time, all the bosses of Zhong's snacks, that is, the villagers next to Zhong's house, spontaneously got together to discuss, and began to spread the news in the surrounding area.
They had no other way but to use this method to pressure the prefect to release them.
Since Zhong Li's accident, Zhong Liyu has lived in Hui Bafang, and she knew these things for the first time, and then she realized that what Zhong Li did before was worth it.
There are ungrateful people in this world, and there are more people who will take revenge, but more people are people who know how to repay their kindness.
"Big brother, can this really force the prefect to release people?" Zhong Liyue sat in front of Zhong Liyu with a solemn expression. It had been almost a day since Zhongli had been imprisoned, but there was nothing they could do, which made Zhongli Yue blame himself even more.
Even when I went to the palace, I didn't see anyone. Go to the barracks and inquire again, good guy, Zhao Yiyan led the troops out to suppress the bandits.
"I don't know, we'll just have to wait now." Zhong Liyu, who was originally anxious, couldn't help but become Zhongli when facing several younger brothers, and he looked confident about everything. It's just that only she knows that at this time she is already at the end of her strong crossbow, and all her calmness is just accepting.
Seeing Zhong Liyu like this, Zhong Liyue seemed to see Zhong Li's shadow in her, "Big brother, you say, if we are arrested, how will the second brother save us?" ”
Zhong Liyu was stunned, "I don't know." But she was sure that Zhongli would definitely have a way, and he would definitely not sit idly by like them.
At this time, Zhongli was sitting in the cell, very comfortable.
Unlike the cell she had expected, it was clean, and she barely stayed there, sitting on a wooden bed and reflecting on what she had been doing these days.
Compared with the calm Zhongli, Governor Li was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, he never knew that the influence of a merchant was so great, and the entire Canggu City and even the surrounding cities were talking about this matter, which made the prefect panic.
"Wang Quan, what do you say about this?" Governor Li was anxious and asked the think tank named Wang Quan next to him.
"Chill them first, and then talk about it later." Wang Quan actually didn't approve of his actions against the Zhong family, but the prefect was the prefect after all, and he was just a subordinate, so he couldn't control it at all.
"Yes, yes, cold first." Li Zhifu wiped the sweat from his forehead. In fact, he doesn't have much ability, and he can become a prefect, but it's just because his family has money.
