readx;?“ Bang!"

Early in the morning, the comfortable and peaceful Jinling City Lu Mansion was awakened by a loud noise, and the people of the Lu family ran out of the main hall with their heads down, followed by waves of saucers and bowls flying out, and the tables, chairs and benches were also knocked to pieces, and the hall was in a mess. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Lu Wencai stood in the hall panting like a cow, his face was pale, his small eyes were about to stare at the moment, his thin and weak fist was pressing a wrinkled letter on the table at the moment, Yan Lingxuan, Ah Chang, and Xiao Fluttershy stood aside with their faces dazed and at a loss, only Lu Wencai beat his chest vigorously and smashed the table and smashed the chair to vent.

"Wencai, what's wrong?" Fluttershy asked, puzzled, "If something happens, you might as well tell us and we'll discuss it together." ”

Lu Wencai threw the letter on the table to the ground and scolded: "Jiang Tianbao, this despicable and shameless villain, this bastard who has been stabbed by a thousand knives, why doesn't he die......!

Hearing Lu Wencai's scolding, Ah Chang, who was standing on the side, twitched violently in her heart, and then she was the first to rush up and pick up the letter, and read it with Fluttershy and Yan Lingxuan. This is Jiang Tianbao's handwritten letter to Lu Wencai, and there is a lot of nonsense in the letter, but there is only one real meaning, that is, to suspend the cooperation between the Qinghong Chamber of Commerce and the Lujia Chamber of Commerce, and as compensation for violating the contract, the three billion silver shells that the Qinghong Chamber of Commerce gave to the Lujia Chamber of Commerce before the contract, Jiang Tianbao will not pay a penny. Seeing this letter, Fluttershy and the three of them were all surprised, and Fluttershy said, "Can Jiang Tianbao be untrustworthy like this?Wencai, in the past few months, we have already collected all the big and small businesses in the Holy Domain, and all the three billion dollars have been spent, not to mention that the mansion itself has also put in at least tens of millions of silver shells, if Jiang Tianbao no longer cooperates with the Lu Family Chamber of Commerce now, then how will we explain to those shops in the Holy Land?"

Yan Lingxuan asked, "Wencai, where was the contract between you and Jiang Tianbao at the beginning? Now that he has torn up the contract without authorization, there should always be an explanation, right?"

Lu Wencai pointed to the letter and said: "Jiang Tianbao is really a big deal, he is willing to spend three billion silver shells to lure me into being fooled, the contract I signed with him only said that if the Qinghong Chamber of Commerce changes halfway, then all the money he sent before will be left in the Lu Family Chamber of Commerce as compensation, and no money will be returned." It's good now, we don't have to open our mouths to ask him Jiang Tianbao for it, but he himself took the initiative to give up. What is this not a conspiracy? He was clearly deliberately playing tricks on me, and now that the stage has been set up, he won't even play? How can we end up with just us?" Lu Wencai became more and more angry the more he spoke, and finally raised his foot and kicked the table next to him to the ground.

"What can we do now?" Fluttershy said worriedly, "It's better to think about how to deal with the aftermath first, without the financial support of the Qinghong Chamber of Commerce, our Lu Family Chamber of Commerce will face a huge debt that will never be repaid." ”

"No, I'm going to the Beast Domain, I'm going to the Qinghong Chamber of Commerce to find Jiang Tianbao for justice!" Lu Wencai said and wanted to raise his feet and walk outside, but was stopped by Yan Ling Xuan in time, Yan Ling preached: "It will take a year and a half to go to the Beast Domain, what should you do if you leave the Lu family? Besides, even if you see Jiang Tianbao, what can you do? The Qinghong Chamber of Commerce just refuses to pay, can you still kill him?"

"I ...... I ......" Lu Wencai said several "I" words in a row, and finally could only sigh heavily, in fact, his heart was already up and down at this moment, and he had no opinion.

"Otherwise, let's go and ask Gongzi Yifan for help!" Ah Chang, who refused to speak for a long time, said timidly. It's okay that she didn't open her mouth, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she immediately aroused Lu Wencai's anger, only to see Lu Wencai pointing at Ah Chang and reproaching: "Ah Chang, what kind of bullshit Jiang Tianbao was introduced to me by you, why is it like this now?" Under Lu Wencai's accusation, Ah Chang couldn't hold back the guilt in his heart anymore, and tears flowed down his eyes.

Fluttershy hurriedly helped, "Wencai, don't blame Ah Chang, she doesn't know that Jiang Tianbao is such a person." What's more, Jiang Tianbao was seen by you, the contract was signed by you, and the things were done by you, now that something happened, you blamed Ah Chang, why didn't you blame Ah Chang when you just got three billion silver shells before?"

"I'm not blaming her, I'm just ......" Lu Wencai sighed again, turned around angrily and walked to the only chair still standing in the hall and sat down, sulking without saying a word.

"Now that we've gotten to this, shall we go to Lord Han for help?" Fluttershy suggests, "Otherwise, we will go to His Majesty the Emperor, and then we will find Yifan." ”

"It's useless, at the beginning of this matter, my father and Lord Han didn't agree, it was Wencai who did it hard, and now if something happens, I'm afraid they can't do anything. Yan Lingxuan shook his head and said, "For today's plan, maybe we can only go and ask the one in the West Emperor Mountain to come forward to help." Yifan has a great relationship with the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce, and as the so-called business is in business, maybe the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce can try to help us settle this matter. ”

"Return the goods!" Lu Wencai suddenly said, "We don't want any money, return all the goods we received, this matter is regarded as a farce made by me Lu Wencai, anyway, everyone already knows what kind of person I am, and I don't care about doing such an unreliable foolish thing." ”

"Returns?" Fluttershy pondered for a moment and said, "We have already used a lot of manpower when we received the goods, and we have not paid anyone so far, so is it still going to alarm these people by returning the goods?"

"Anyway, I relied on it once, and I don't care about relying on it more than once. Lu Wencai said in a gloomy voice, "It's a big deal, after this incident, I will go to Xihuang Mountain and kowtow to Yifan in person to admit my mistake." ”

"Lu Wencai!"

Just as Lu Wencai and Fluttershy were discussing how to deal with the aftermath in the hall, a cold voice suddenly came from the courtyard, and Lu Wencai's spirit suddenly shook and they greeted them one after another, but Han Xiao, who had a solemn face, walked in quickly with a few guards. Lu Wencai was worried when he saw Han Xiao since he was a child, and he didn't dare to speak indiscriminately when he made a mistake at this moment, so he timidly lowered his head and shouted: "Lord Han, ......" Han Xiao seemed to be in a very bad mood today, and he didn't pay attention to Lu Wencai and the others at all, but walked straight into the hall, and said loudly: "Lu Wencai, I came here today to tell you a piece of news, which is related to your Lu Family Chamber of Commerce. ”

"Dare to ask Lord Han what the news is?" Fluttershy asks with a frown.

Han Xiao took a letter from the guard's hand, took it to Lu Wencai and shook it a few times, and said, "Do you see it yourself or do I tell you?" Lu Wencai was still in the mood to tease Han Xiao at the moment, and said in a low voice: "Please tell me Lord Han!"

"Hmph!" Han Xiao snorted coldly, and then said in a deep voice, "I received an urgent report this morning, saying that the inventory warehouse of your Lu Family Chamber of Commerce in the seven hundred and nine cities of the Holy Realm caught fire at the same time last night, and after the fire was extinguished, all the goods in the warehouse have been burned. ”

Before Han Xiao's words fell, Lu Wencai only felt a roar in his head, and then his feet were soft and he sat down on the ground with a "poof", his eyes were empty, and the whole person was completely lost as if he had been hit by thunder and thunder.

"Lu Wencai, I was just about to ask you, a few months ago, you mobilized the soldiers and horses of the city army and the disciples of the sect and the academy to trespass on the legitimate business of various parts of the Holy Domain, and then there were countless bloody cases. Do you know that in the past few months, there have been not 1,000 but 800 people who have been killed by your Lu Family Chamber of Commerce, and the local government offices have received documents accusing you of oppressing the people, fighting and injuring people, and forcibly taking and seizing them. These things were pressed again and again by the government offices in order to take care of Yifan and my face, and they never dared to report to the emperor. Now that such a big thing has happened overnight, what are you doing?" Han Xiao was furious, the anger contained in a pair of tiger eyes couldn't eat Lu Wencai alive, "Now that there is a lot of anger among the people in the Holy Domain, there are countless unjust cases, if you don't explain it to me clearly today, don't blame me for being ruthless to your Lu Family Chamber of Commerce!"

"It's over...... It's all over......" After a while, Lu Wen muttered as if he had suddenly poured out of breath, "It's over...... This time the goods are gone...... It's over...... Dead ......"

"Lu Wencai, I'm asking you, didn't you hear?" Seeing that Lu Wencai was ignoring his own question, Han Xiao couldn't help but be angry in his heart, and immediately shouted angrily, causing the three people in the hall to tremble at the same time.

Han ...... Lord Han ......, "Yan Lingxuan, as the princess of the Holy Land, is still a level higher than him even in front of Han Xiao, and in this situation, it seems that she is the only one who can come forward to talk to Han Xiao. Sure enough, as soon as Yan Lingxuan said this, Han Xiao's face suddenly softened a little, and he said quite respectfully: "I don't know what the princess has to say?" Yan Lingxuan shook his head and said, "Lord Han, this time the text is possible...... Someone may have deceived you......"

"What?" Han Xiao couldn't understand the meaning of Yan Ling's words for a while, "The Chamber of Commerce belongs to you, why do you say that you were deceived? And what happened to the fire in your warehouse at the same time last night? Do you mean...... Someone deliberately set fire?" Han Xiao is not a fool, at this moment, Lu Wencai's dead face has already betrayed him, and Han Xiao seems to have begun to realize the slightest bad meaning.

"I don't think it's just deliberate arson. Fluttershy gathered her thoughts before she spoke, "We suspect this was a hoax from start to finish." ”

Han Xiao frowned and glanced at Lu Wencai, who was sitting on the ground without saying a word, then found a chair and sat down, and said in a deep voice: "Now you tell me the whole thing!"

"Yes!" Fluttershy said methodically, "It may have to be brought up shortly after the New Year's Day when Yifan was crowned Emperor......

Throughout the morning, Fluttershy tells Han Xiao about the Lu Family Chamber of Commerce from scratch and the various connections between the Lu Family Chamber of Commerce and the Qinghong Chamber of Commerce. In this way, it took two full hours for Han Xiao to learn the cause and effect of the whole thing. By the time Fluttershy finished her last sentence, Han Xiao's face was completely gloomy, and there was a hint of worry on his eyebrows in addition to anger.

"Now that your treasury has been burned, it means that you have been completely cornered, isn't it?" Han Xiao asked rhetorically.

"Yes. Fluttershy replied bluntly, "What we owe now is not only a personal debt, but also a foreign debt that is so large that we can't even think about it, and if we can't pay off this debt within half a year according to the contract, then the Lu Family Chamber of Commerce will become the target of the entire Sanctuary, and the Lu family will completely offend most of the people of the Sanctuary because of this." ”

Han Xiao was already shocked when he heard this, and he knew better than Fluttershy what the consequences were. Han Xiao, as the protector of the country, has been in the court for many years, and knows how great the power of the people is, as the so-called water can carry a boat and overturn a boat, now Lu Yifan has just ascended to the throne of the emperor for less than a year, and the foundation is not stable, if such a disaster occurs, then Emperor Yanchong will definitely take this opportunity to push Lu Yifan and the Soul Sect into a place of no return. Han Xiao knows the emperor too well, since he braved the world's disapproval to push Lu Yifan to the throne of the middle emperor at the New Year's Day, the emperor Yan Chong has been looking for an opportunity to regain power. Because the current emperor has begun to gradually realize that today's Lu Yifan seems to be more threatening than the Dongfang Su in the past.

"How much money do you have?" Although Han Xiao knew that it would be ridiculous for him to ask like this, he still subconsciously wanted to try all the methods he could think of.

"The money in the Fuzhong and the Chamber of Commerce together should not exceed 30 million silver shells. Yan Lingxuan is the clearest about the financial situation of the Lu Family Chamber of Commerce, so he can naturally blurt out these things, "Three billion silver shells are just a drop in the bucket, not to mention our mere 30 million silver shells?"

"Lord Han doesn't want to help us raise money, does he?" Fluttershy looked at Han Xiao in surprise, "This amount is definitely not comparable to the wealthy, don't say it's Lord Han, I think even the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce shouldn't be able to come up with so much money at once, right?"

"Whether the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce can take it out is one thing, and why should people help you pay off your debts?" Han Xiao asked in a deep voice, "Do you still have to rely on the relationship between Yifan and the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce?

"Lord Han, I want to beg my father!" Yan Lingxuan said with an anxious face, "I want to beg my father to see if we can ...... from the treasury for the time being."

"Impossible!" Before Yan Lingxuan could finish speaking, Han Xiao had already interrupted bluntly, "Not to mention that there is not so much money in the treasury at all, even if there is really Your Majesty, he will never use it to help you fill this hole." ”

"Then what should I do?" Ah Chang's face was full of tears, "Although this matter is the fault of the Qinghong Chamber of Commerce, after all, it is the Lu Family Chamber of Commerce that signed the contract with the shops of the Holy Domain. The Qinghong Chamber of Commerce is far away in the Beast Domain and doesn't care about our life and death at all, and when the time comes, these people will still come to us to seek justice if they lose money. ”

"You don't have to think about that Qinghong Chamber of Commerce, this is clearly a bureau. Han Xiao said in a deep voice, "They can take out three billion silver shells to set up a bureau, it is definitely not against a few of you, if I guess correctly, they should be aimed at Yifan." ”

"It's all my fault!" Lu Wencai slapped himself several times loudly, and blamed himself again and again, "If it weren't for greed, this would not have happened, blame me! Blame me! I really damn ......"

"You guys go pack up your things now!" Han Xiao said suddenly, "You can't stay here for a long time, otherwise there will be trouble sooner or later, now there are tens of millions of people outside who hate to skin and tear you apart, everyone knows that the foundation of the Lu Family Chamber of Commerce is in Jinling City, if you stay here any longer, I am afraid that I will not be able to protect you in the event of a civil uprising, and then maybe...... His Majesty will push you out and kill you to the outrage of the people. ”

"Then where are we going?" Lu Wencai looked at Han Xiao with tears in his eyes, "We are already homeless......

"Go to a place where no one dares to make trouble. Han Xiao's expression was straight, and he said, "Go to Xihuang Mountain, Yifan's masters are like clouds and wise people are like rain, you go to him first, I think Yifan will definitely be able to think of a way to solve this matter." I will also keep an eye on the movements outside Jinling City, and I will inform you of any changes in the Sanctuary as soon as possible. ”

"I don't want to cause trouble for Yifan......"

"If you really don't want to cause trouble for him, then when you get to Xihuang Mountain, you have to tell him all this, remember, don't hide a word!"
