Chapter 115 The aristocracy is as innocent as a flower, stupid to death
When Alexei and Bazel heard the word Black Guard, they immediately looked at each other, and a chill grew in their hearts. This Justin seems to want to die forever! Falling into the hands of the Black Guards, the innocent people have to shed a layer of skin? How can they bear this sin.
Bazel glared at Justin and said, "Lord Justin, you are just the Lord of the Empire, could it be that the Black Guards are also what you can instigate?"
Justin shook his head and said, "I asked as a marquis of the empire after I was awarded the medal, presumably the emperor will not sit idly by and watch the imperial title system be ignored, right?"
Alexei's legs were a little weak, this Justin was really vicious, and taking advantage of the opportunity to accuse the award, this kind of consequences was definitely beyond their bearing.
Thinking of this, Bazel and Alexei glanced at each other again, and then they wanted to lead the crowd back to find a way. But when he walked to the door, Justin was already in the way.
Justin smiled and said, "Since you're here, don't be in a hurry to leave." I'm curious when the city guards will come over to enforce the law. ”
Alexei exclaimed, "Lord Justin, don't deceive people too much. It's not enough to kill people, do you really want to die?"
Justin smiled coldly: "Hehe, I was about to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, just in time for you to rush up and be a chicken, why should I be willing to go far!
When Bazel heard this, he heard the cold murderous intent in Justin's words, but how could he break the game?
During the stalemate between the two sides, a group of people wearing city guard uniforms came to the door of the department store.
Seeing Bazel and Alexei standing at the door, the leader of the city guard was stunned for a moment, and opened his mouth to ask: "I heard that the department store is shoddy and beats customers, and the city guard has decided to close the store." The people in the department store automatically stood up. Don't try to resist. ”
Seeing this scene, Justin sneered: "Hehe, the department store reported the case for half an hour, and you didn't say it for a long time, and you were convicted before the trial, if it weren't for you wearing the uniforms of the city guards, I would really suspect that you were robbers pretending." ”
Hear Justin's cynicism. The leader of the city guards rebuked angrily: "Who are you, you dare to pour dirty water on the city guards, you don't want to die?"
Justin sneered: "If you open your mouth and close your mouth, you want other people's lives, it seems that you are really robbers!"
Alexei was in a hurry and said, "Subi, this man is pretending to be the Lord of Thorns, quickly catch him and put him in prison." ”
When Subi, the leader of the city guards, heard this, he was immediately shocked. Pretending to be the Lord of Thorns is a great sin. No one should be so stupid!
Bulie shouted on the side: "Hehe, blind your dog's eyes, our lord still needs to pretend, it's a joke." ”
Justin's vindictive spirit mixed into his voice and shouted: "Kenting City Guards are plotting to kill the Imperial Lord, go to the Imperial Department Store to report quickly, and be sure to inform the Emperor of what happened." Thorns receive a 500 gold reward. ”
Hearing this, Subi hesitated a little, the fake lord would definitely not shout like this. If there is really a rumor to spread to the imperial capital. The life of his wife and child is worried.
Bazel and Alexei didn't expect Justin to be so single, and they actually shouted for help regardless of their face. And a big reward. Unless everyone present is killed, there is no guarantee that anyone will sue them, and the consequences will be serious.
Now Justin is like a hedgehog, so that Bazel and Alexei do not dare to act rashly at all.
The stalemate led the crowd to believe Justin's identity. After all, if it was a fake lord, it is estimated that it would have been taken down by the city guards a long time ago. Only a true lord would make the city guards jealous.
The clever crowd had begun to retreat quietly, hoping that Justin would be killed by the city guards, so that they could earn enough gold to live comfortably for the rest of their lives.
Subi looked at the movement around him and knew that he had no way to control the scene. In other words, the current city guards are really yellow mud and lose their crotch. It's not, it's. His heart was full of grievances.
This dispatch of the city guards was just a simple small cooperation, and Su Zeng was extremely excited.
Department store, do you know how much money you can earn in a month? It's just opening the door to attract money. This kind of business is very rare in Kenting City, and it is understandable that it can be targeted by the relatives of the city lord. Wealth is moving!
As for the Thorn Collar, hehe, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and when the time comes, only a few charges will be involved, can the people of the Thorn Collar still be able to investigate carefully? Even if they are carefully investigated, what clues can be found in Kenting City? If they can really find out, it is estimated that these plotters can find a potato to kill themselves, and what kind of trouble!
It's just that the perfect plan actually went awry - and the joke was made big when the Lord of Thorns appeared.
Could it be that God has opened his eyes? Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence? Besides, I have long heard that the Lord of Thorns has disappeared on his way to Beijing, and that all the people accompanying him have been killed. This is also the reason why they dare to blatantly seize department stores.
But if the Lord is standing in front of him alive, how can he continue?
Bazel, Alexei, and Subi stood here looking at each other, thinking about it for a moment, but there was nothing to do.
Suddenly, a person dressed as a female clerk ran over, ignoring the tense formation, and said to Xie Kesu breathlessly: "I went to the City Lord's Mansion to report the case, but no one came forward. Then I heard that the city guards were coming, so I hurried back, did they come to arrest the outlaws?"
Xie Kesu shook his head and said, "Susan, the city guards think that we who have been smashed and looted are the outlaws. ”
Susan's mouth was wide open, and she looked shocked and incredulous. After a long time, she stammered, "How can this be? So what should we do? Shall we let the shop be smashed and looted?"
Xie Kesu smiled and said, "How come, the lord is here, this matter will definitely not be settled like this!"
Speaking of this, he took Susan's hand and walked up to Justin and said, "This is Susan, a clerk in the department store, working very hard!"
Justin quipped, "Susan works hard, and she doesn't work as hard as you do." Otherwise, how could I be held by you!"
Xie Kesu was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that the lord was joking that he was chasing his girlfriend! I promise, there was absolutely no delay in work. ”
Justin shook his head and smiled: "Okay, your relationship is a private matter, just handle it yourself." Don't forget to inform me when you get married, and I'll give you a big red envelope when the time comes. ”
Xie Kesu said gratefully, "Thank you, lord!"
Susan also followed Sheksu and thanked Justin.
Justin said, "Sheksu, you lead the clerk to assess the damage of the store. Look at how many valuables we've lost, how many rare treasures have been destroyed?"
Xie Kesu replied excitedly, "Yes, lord, I will arrange for someone to count them immediately." ”
After saying that, Xie Kesu followed Justin's instructions and led the other clerks to begin to count the value lost inside and outside the store.
Alexei felt that something was wrong when he heard this, and the meaning of these words seemed to be that what they smashed and damaged were valuable items, was the other party ready to blackmail him?
Justin barricaded the gate, and the city guard clubbed outside the gate. In this way, the scene returned to a stalemate.
Bazel looked at Justin as he hung up, and a hint of murder flashed in his heart. It's just that everyone doesn't dare to implement it, so they can only endure it in their hearts.
Justin seemed to feel something, stared at Bazel and laughed: "What's the matter? The so-called half-step Sword King Rank, I don't accept it, I don't accept you to bite me!"
Bazel really regretted how he could have been blinded by lard and come out for this money. Seeing the other party's fearless appearance, Bazel thought that compared to the humiliation he had received. The asking price of 10,000 gold coins is simply too little.
Seeing this, Subi hurriedly sent the guards to inform the city lord. After all, the crowd of onlookers came and went. The impact of the incident will only grow.
Half an hour later, the city lord Ariba came to the door of the department store and saw Justin blocking his brother Alexei in the door, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Lord Justin, I have long admired the great name. I am Ariba the Lord of Kenting! I don't know what conflict you have with my brother, so let's go into the house and talk. After all, this is harmful to the prestige of the Empire!"
Justin scoffed, "Huh. They smashed the Chamber of Commerce for so long. No one cares, it's all harmless to the prestige of the Empire, and it's harmful for me to just block them in the door, this logic is so powerful!"
Aliba smiled wryly: "I am also an imperial nobleman, and I hope that this matter can be resolved peacefully." In this way, no matter how much property is damaged in the department store. will be compensated in full, what do you think?"
Justin shook his head and said, "I wonder what you're going to do with Alexey, Bazel, and Subi?"
Ariba saw that Justin did not spit at all, but was obsessed with pursuing the real culprit, which made him feel sick in his heart.
The law between the aristocracy is mostly based on compromise and interests, and Justin's uncompromising approach is the most headache for the aristocracy, especially after their own interests are damaged, they do not pursue more compensation, but ask for justice.
Is there justice in the empire for the aristocracy? It is nothing more than the big nobles embezzling the property of the minor nobles, and the minor nobles embezzling the assets of the merchants.
As for the punishment, unless someone like Justin is caught, all crimes will eventually be washed away.
Yes, what aristocratic family is not full of blood, murder and intrigue, but on the surface it is indeed bright, majestic and wise?
Therefore, the people who believe that the aristocracy is as pure as the little white flower have long since died, and they are stupid.
Aliba thought for a while and said, "Why don't Lord Justin deign to go to the City Lord's Mansion, how about I take the wind and wash the dust for the lord?"
Justin smiled, "Don't bother the city lord. When I first arrived in your territory, I was very happy to see the businesses in your territory expanding their business here. But when I saw that the shops had been smashed for nearly half an hour, and no city guards came to stop the attack of the outlaws, the pain in my heart was incomparable.
What surprised me even more was that Subi, the leader of the city guards, had just arrived at the door of the department store, and without asking both sides of the incident, he directly determined that the department store was shoddy and beat customers.
Hearing this, Aliba glared at Subi angrily and said, "Subi, is that so?"
When Subi saw the angry city lord, he naturally knew how to cooperate, and he cried bitterly and said: "Lord City Lord, the petty official is also deceived by his subordinates, so it is determined that the petty official is really unintentional!"
A city guard stood up and said, "Lord City Lord, the city guard, is it that his subordinates have interfered with the duties of the city guard without verification, and I hope the city lord will punish him?"
Ariba looked at Justin in embarrassment and said, "Look, it's all over." It was the soldiers of the city guard who did not get complete information and misled the city guard Subi, and hoped that Lord Justin would have a large number of them, so they would not care about it anymore. ”
Justin sneered twice disdainfully and didn't speak.
Ariba couldn't help but say with some anger: "Lord Justin, this is Kenting City, not your territory, do you still want to turn Kenting City upside down?"
Justin smiled and said, "If I can turn it upside down, maybe I'll really be relieved." ”
Ariba looked at Justin, who was not afraid of boiling water, and was a little weak. This is simply a shame for the nobles of the empire, don't you know that profit can make up for all mistakes?
Alexei whispered to Ariba that "he wants to treat us like dead chickens that scare monkeys." ”
"Dead chicken!" Aliba Alexei repeated heavily, looking at Justin coldly and said, "Lord, it will be a bit too much to entangle any longer. ”
Justin laughed and said, "If I wasn't there, wouldn't this shop have disappeared silently? Will all the wealth be embezzled by these people who collude with officials and businessmen? If you want to settle it peacefully, you can compensate the store three times the profit for a year." ”
Aliba's face changed when he heard this, this Nima's profit last year was close to 100,000 gold coins, and it was three times as much, this is too much of a lion's mouth!
Looking at Ariba's disgraced face, Justin said: "No way, the family is big, and I am always remembered, so I feel very unhappy." You hit the muzzle of the gun. Losing money or bringing it to justice, do you choose one?"
Aliba frowned, thinking that Justin would still go to the imperial capital to confer honors and would not stay in Kenting City for too long, so he thought about it and said: "It is really a shame for Kenting City to have such an incident of serious violation of the laws of the empire, and I have decided to bring it to justice and will not tolerate it." ”
Justin smiled and said, "The city lord of Aliba is really happy! I will definitely tell the emperor the truth of the city lord's righteous killing of his relatives, and suggest that the emperor commend the city lord for his justice and selflessness." ”
Ariba was directly disgusted by Justin's words like eating a rancid rotten fish, does this Nima let the emperor commend me, or do you want to give me eye medicine!
Thinking of the terrible nature of the Imperial Black Guard's handling of conflicts between officials and lords, Ariba was silent for a while. (To be continued.) )
