"The Hall of Compassion is also here!"

"And Boholdo!"

"If it's really a joint oppression, what are you doing here at this time? Do you rely on power to get people? I heard that the Compassion Hall is behind it! The person behind the scenes is surnamed Cui, and Baohetang is also from Chang'an! ”

Wei Yaoqing looked at the "articulate" people, who were farmers carrying hoes, and there was a bit of Jinan's local accent in her words. After thinking about it, she said to Pei Zongzhi: "Are the people who are farmers so powerful now?" What a point! Even the twists and turns in the capital know so clearly. He was also the one who just broke the identity of the woman who was full of loopholes. ”

Pei Zongzhi nodded and glanced at the farmer, and said, "If someone really arranged to deliberately instigate it, he won't leave until the matter is resolved." ”

Wei Yaoqing glanced at him and said with a smile: "That's up to you, don't lose it!" ”

"Hmm."

Wei Yaoqing heard his response, so she continued to look over.

The boss of the Cixin Hall didn't say much, but said: "Baokangzhuang has a problem and sends the official, we are here for another matter." ”

"Who are you fooling? Are we stupid? At this time, jump out and clear the relationship? ”

"That's it!"

"It's clearly a gang."

……

The doubts intensified, and in the face of the people's doubts, the shopkeeper of the Cixin Hall was calm and calm from beginning to end.

He arched his hand at the crowd, but the boos of the people around him became louder.

People are naturally sympathetic to the weak, not to mention that Bao Kangzhuang has come to make such a fuss, and the fact that Bai Caotang was jointly oppressed is almost confirmed.

For most of the small people in Shengdou, compared to the national events that are far away in the world, how much money they can earn a day is the major thing they care about every day. The herb farmer who planted herbs at home at a high price and went up the mountain to collect herbs was happy to bloom, but it was only a few days of hard work, because Bao Kangzhuang joined forces to sue Bai Caotang to stop collecting medicines, which made them lose their money for several days. I already had a grudge in my heart because of this incident, but now when I saw such a thing, I was even more dissatisfied, and my emotions became more and more excited.

The shopkeeper of the Cixin Hall didn't care about the boos of the people around him, but suddenly stepped forward, and when everyone didn't react, he directly picked up the account book on the long table and opened it.

"You ......" The shopkeeper of the herb hall changed slightly, as if he wanted to stop it, but he still took a step slow and let the shopkeeper of the Compassion Hall get it.

The shopkeeper of the Cixin Hall flipped through the account book, and then said: "Linlu Pass intercepted a batch of medicinal herbs sent to the southwest......

The shopkeeper of the Baicao Hall was a step slower when he tried to stop it, and he didn't have time to withdraw his hand at this time, so he had to withdraw his hand and say: "My owner is indeed from the southwest, but in the past when everyone did business, it was also a common thing to transfer goods back and forth between the north and the south, do you dare to guarantee that you did not send the herbs to the southwest?" ”

"Yes," the shopkeeper replied without humility or arrogance, and then the chubby, honest-looking and kind face, suddenly became a little more violent, "But the shopkeeper's account is not right!" ”

As he spoke, he handed the account book to the treasurer of Baohetang on the side: "We told Baicaotang to secretly help the Southwest Army under the pretext of collecting herbs. ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar, and the people who watched the excitement were stunned.

Was the herb collected by Baicaotang sent to the Southwest Army? Jinan has not suffered a war, the last time the Huns besieged the city is just a false alarm, they are the people of Dachu, the previous southwest army led the Huns into the customs, the students of the city school have also made trouble, they or participated in or seen the excitement. In their eyes, Chen Shan is a thief, and the Southwest Army is naturally a rebel.

Did the herb do the same thing as they secretly helped the rebels?

"What about the evidence?" The shopkeeper of Baicaotang glanced at the account book that fell into the hands of the shopkeeper of Baohetang, and his eyes sank slightly: "I, Baicaotang, is just a medicine merchant from the southwest, just because the southwest marquis of the first emperor rebelled, he defiled my Baicaotang to help the rebels, I am not convinced!" ”

When the shopkeeper of the Baicao Hall said this, he bowed down to everyone, and this all-encompassing style made many emotional onlookers silently swallow the words that were originally going to come out of their mouths, and chose to be silent. Only then did he say: "As everyone knows, my Baicaotang is already a century-old shop, to put it mildly, when I opened the Baicaotang, the traitor Chen Shan didn't know where it was!" How can you defile me because I went out of the southwest together? Could it be that if there is a treacherous evil in Jinan Mansion, the entire Jinan Mansion will be treacherous? ”

As soon as these words came out, they immediately attracted applause.

"That's a good point!" Wei Yaoqing didn't blink her eyes, and turned her head to Pei Zongdao, "Although it is said that the farmers are industrial, the merchants are at the end, but the merchants are not at all inferior to the scholars!" ”

After the shopkeeper of Baicaotang finished speaking, the shopkeeper of Cixin Hall stood up.

"Of course not, Shopkeeper Zhou Mo made a fuss about Jinan Mansion." The chubby shopkeeper said, "This has nothing to do with the fact that the herb hall is from the southwest, it only has to do with the whereabouts of your herb hall." ”

"Yes, it's innocent or not, just check it out." The shopkeeper of Baohetang closed the account book in his hand, but did not return the account book to Baicaotang, he looked at everyone with a smile, "Please also be a witness, we will go to see Lord Ye!" ”

"Good!" Look at the lively people clamoring.

I thought it was just an ordinary infighting, but I didn't expect it to reach the point of seeing an official, and several teahouse guys clapped their hands in the crowd, and today's scene can be told for several days.

The crowd went in the direction of the government.

Along with the long table, the man at the long table, and the strange-looking woman, they were carried by the noisy crowd and hurried to the palace.

Wei Yaoqing slowly fell into the crowd, and after a while, he saw Pei Zongzhi helping the "sleeping" peasant to come over.

"Sure enough, the ginger is still old and spicy." Wei Yaoqing said, "Compassion Hall and Baohe Hall have completely made things bigger this time, and Lord Ye is afraid that he will be busy again." ”

Pei Zongzhi said: "Is this person also handed over to Ye Xiuyuan?" ”

Wei Yaoqing nodded: "Anyway, the Compassion Hall and the Baohe Hall are prepared, and they will remind Lord Ye what to do." ”

This matter is not the business of these two shopkeepers, in the final analysis, it is still a game between the big pharmacists such as Baicaotang, Cixintang, and Baohetang.

……

……

It was not only the big pharmacists who had the accident, but also the rice merchants.

"Baicaotang is too impatient this time." Pei Xingting smiled at Cui Yuandao, who was playing against him, and said, "If it weren't for the eagerness to take the opportunity to turn over and draw out the notoriety of our joint oppression, I'm afraid we wouldn't have gotten the real account book in Bai Caotang's hands so quickly." ”

Like this kind of big pharmacist, which branch can't face the accounts, it will inevitably affect all the accounts, the accounts are wrong, check! Before the problem of herb transportation was discovered, just checking the accounts was enough for herb hall to drink a pot.

"It's not long to delay." Cui Yuandao fell behind and said, "Now that the situation is very clear, you can stand in line." Xiao Jiu has already set off for Jinan Mansion. ”

The account book of Baicaotang was obtained from Jinan Mansion, and some things naturally had to start from Jinan.

Officialdom is ruthless, and so are shopping malls. Behind the powerful is also indispensable the support of money, peers are jealous, this time the vitality of Baicaotang is greatly damaged, and of course Cixintang wants to take the opportunity to get a piece of the pie.

This bodhisattva-like old man is really a rational and indifferent corner, Pei Xingting thought about it, and followed his words with a smile: "It is a blessing that the Great Chu Army has frequent successes. ”

No matter how Chen Shan uses soldiers like a god, he can't resist the will of the people, there is a great Chu army outside, and the people inside secretly open the city gate for the Great Chu army to secretly open the city gate and secretly Chen Cang, under the attack of the two sides, even Chen Shan can't do it.

"Because he's human, he's old." Cui Yuandao said, "Compared to my Great Chu General, he is already old, and I heard that the southwest army has not been peaceful recently. ”

"Yes, Chen Shan has been attacked by assassins twice in the past few days, but there is no danger." Pei Xingting snorted lightly, dropped the last son in his hand, and said with a smile, "It's a tie." ”

Cui Yuandao glanced at the endgame and withdrew his hand: "What is that call assassination?" It's pretty much the same! ”

……

"Is this an assassination? It's a mess! Chen Li stood in the camp, pointed to the noses of several people in front of him and scolded, "That cup of poisonous tea tastes so strong, fools know that there is a problem!" ”

"We also assassinated!" Another of the people standing was unconvinced, arguing, "It's just a little oversight." ”

"Take an unopened blade to assassinate?" Chen Li roared angrily, "Are you fools? ”

"You're a fool!" The warlock with the most temper in the past scolded, "Didn't you see that Bingdao was discovered less than ten steps away from Chen Shan?" We were going to change knives when we got closer, but it turned out that we couldn't get close to him at all! ”

"If you don't change your knives, you might have already succeeded!"

"Are you stupid? Don't you know that the higher your martial arts, the more you can perceive the murderous aura? Murderous, you know? ”

"What murderous aura?" Chen Li said angrily, "How did I not know? ”

"How do you know that you don't know martial arts!" The man said impatiently, "Talking to someone like you is like playing the harp to a cow!" ”

"If it weren't for me, who would be talking nonsense to you here?" Chen Li frowned, and walked back and forth in the army irritably, "The eldest brother must think that I murdered his son, and according to the eldest brother's temperament, he will not let me go, just like those Southwest Army, what should I do?" ”

It's like siblings, it's nice to say, you can still live if you cut your hands and feet, and you may even be able to cut your hands and feet for the sake of your son. Chen Liqing's face was blue, and a cheer came from outside the camp at this time. He glared at them fiercely and walked out, and after a while, he lifted the curtain and walked in.

went out with a blue face, and came back with a face as black as charcoal.

"Gee, what's wrong?" Someone shouted, "Why is the third master's face so good-looking?" ”

Chen Li didn't fail to hear the ridicule in his words, he only glanced at him when he heard the words, and said sullenly: "I took a city and came back victorious." ”

"Isn't that a good thing?" The man said, "Why is the third master so unhappy?" ”

"What's there to be happy about?" Chen Li scolded, "I lost two cities a few days ago, but today I took one city, and the more I fight, the less places I have, and if I fight for a few more months, is there only the southwest mansion left?" ”

"Isn't it normal to win and lose in wars?" Even if they didn't like Chen Shan, they couldn't help it when they heard Chen Li's mouth open and start scolding at this time.

"And he really got the place back, third master, you don't seem to have done anything!" The charlatan who spoke said with his little finger and plucked out his ear.

They didn't say anything more ugly, Chen Li didn't do much alone, but none of them seemed to be a good thing. For example, the alliance with the Huns lost a fierce general, and the loss of the city also attracted public anger.

Others said that they lost their wives and soldiers, and this person lost even his underwear.

In the early years, they had also heard about the Chen brothers, in addition to the eldest Chen Shan, who was particularly powerful, the second and third were good at martial arts and one was able to write. Now it seems that in addition to the statement that the second child who died early is really good at martial arts, the third child has a bit of a sense of blowing.

"Over the years, I have been with my eldest brother, there is no credit and hard work, I have never kept a secret from my eldest brother, but he has such a big secret from us, why? Isn't it so that we can make cows and horses for him? Now the person he is hiding is forever a secret, and it is my head to blame. Chen Li was a little indignant, "This surnamed Zhong is really not my fault!" ”

"Then you talk to Chen Shan!" A charlatan warlock said disappreciatively.

"Will the eldest brother believe it?" Chen Li waved his hand impatiently, looking like he didn't want to say more to you people, "Not at all!" Needless to say! Can't you see it all these days? If he hadn't been busy with business these days, he would have done something to me, and I couldn't sit still! ”

complained a little, and saw that those Jianghu people were sitting on his bed as a cushion again, Chen Li couldn't help but be angry, and said, "Is this all you can do?" Doesn't it mean that you people in the rivers and lakes have extraordinary means? That's it? Not even to assassinate individuals? ”

"Of course our means are extraordinary......" The charlatan, who had spoken earlier, instinctively followed his words.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he was interrupted by his own people.

"There are more powerful means!" The exit interrupted him was the easy old gentleman who rarely talked nonsense with Chen Li, and he spoke, "It's just that Chen Sanye needs to go and see that one in person." ”

A few charlatans who were bored with their fingers turned excited.

Has the right time finally arrived? Finally stop looking at this idiot.

"Can't you add money?" Chen Li frowned when he heard this, obviously unwilling to go and meet the so-called master in person.

Mr. Yi shook his head: "No!" ”

"Why don't you go back and talk to that master?"

The old gentleman still shook his head: "No! ”

"Really?"

"Yes."

"Let me think about it!" Chen Li fell silent.

Mr. Easy nodded: "You think slowly!" ”

I have already begun to think about it, and when I lose two more cities, Chen Li will be able to think about it.

……

……

The dark tide is surging in the southwest army, but the troubles of the big businessmen such as Baicaotang, Cixintang, Luji Rice Village, and Fengtai Rice Village have already had results.

"Bai Caotang and Lu Ji Mizhuang have stopped," Ye Xiuyuan stood in front of her and reported, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his mouth, this matter is finally over.

"Where's Chase Money?" The girl looked at him and asked.

"Chase Money also said that it had no objection, withdrew the brand, and continued to operate." Ye Xiu said from afar, "It's over." ”

"Really?" The girl thought about it, but she didn't say anything, she just asked him again, "There is a reason why Bai Caotang and Lu Ji Mizhuang suddenly stopped!" ”

"One account is wrong, all the accounts have begun to be checked, and the government is never polite to check the accounts. After stopping for seven days, all the shops in the north and south of Guangbai Caotang have lost more than 100,000 taels of silver, and if they continue to investigate, they will accumulate more and more, and the hard work of the predecessors for a hundred years will be ruined, of course, they will be stopped. Ye Xiuyuan said, looking at the girl's surprised gaze, and instinctively replied, "It's the old lady who said it in their letter." ”

What an honest boy! Wei Yaoqing stretched out her hand and patted him on the shoulder, thought about it and asked, "After Bai Caotang and Lu Ji Mizhuang stopped, what happened?" ”

Ye Xiuyuan was stunned: "What's the matter?" ”

Wei Yaoqing sighed and was about to speak, but a clear voice sounded from outside the door.

"There are several Baicaotang and Lu Ji Mizhuang in the eighteen cities in the southwest that have been besieged by the people and suffered heavy losses, you want to hear this!"

The young official walked in, although he was wearing the dark official robe of the official, he was not the slightest bit old-fashioned, and his face was handsome and dusty.

It's Cui Jing! I didn't expect the Cui family to be the first to jump in. Wei Yaoqing nodded at him, as if she said hello, thinking about other things in her heart, and didn't take her eyes off for a while.

Then I heard a "pop", a candied fruit core was still on the table, and as soon as Wei Yaoqing turned her head, a candied fruit was stuffed into her mouth.

Pei Zongzhi, the initiator of the candied fruit, retracted his hand carelessly, frowned, and said, "It's not delicious!" ”

It's not delicious, you stuff it for me? Sour tooth loss! Wei Yaoqing glanced at him and saw Cui Jing walk in.
