Chapter 25 Dare to collect money and do nothing, peel your skin

Xie Xun first sent someone to the palace to hand over the leave note.

Anyway, the emperor approved it, and it was in vain.

Although with mosquito repellent cream, you will not be bitten by mosquitoes, and you can stay up one day less, one less day.

Xie Xun asked Ziling to get a set of clothes for the little guy to change into.

"Lord Shizi, why are you wearing people's clothes?"

Ziling didn't understand why his family was so good, he didn't wear silk and satin, and wore slave clothes.

Xie Xun stroked the ends of his hair and turned around, "How is it, handsome or not?" ”

"Handsome!" Ziling nodded vigorously, "The prince is extremely handsome in everything he wears. ”

"It's sweet in your mouth." Xie Xun pinched Xiao Ziling's tender face.

What a water!

If you push harder, you might be able to pinch out the water.

"Lord Shizi, where are you going?"

Ziling asked after Xie Xun's buttocks.

"Are you going to catch those bastards?"

Xie Xun pointed to his nose, "Do you think you can catch the bad guys?" ”

Ziling shook her head.

It's not that she underestimates her family's son, it's mainly that the prince is really not good.

She has served the prince for more than three years, and she has seen the prince of the world bully, and if she really does it herself, no one can do it.

"I'm going to drink flower wine. It's hard to rest, go and relax. Xie Xun waved his hand and strode away.

Hmph, Ziling looked at Xie Xun's back and grimaced.

"Wear the clothes of a little girl to visit the flower building? Lord Shizi, are you really a fool to be a slave? ”

Xie Xun really didn't go to visit the flower building.

The little guy only inquired about what was floating on the surface. He had no one available at hand for the time being, so he could only play in person.

He was going to the West Market to personally investigate the identities and purposes of those people.

Who is it that dares to pretend to be the name of the son of the world and make such a big move?

And what is the identity of the people behind them?

The one named Gou Fugui has a great reputation in the West Market, and it is all notorious, Xie Xun casually pulled a shopkeeper and asked which street and which shop Gou Fugui is staying in now.

"Young man, what are you looking for that Gou Wangba?" The kind shopkeeper grabbed Xie Xun.

The merchants in the West Market privately called Gou Fugui "Dog King Eight" to vent their anger.

"Did you also encroach on the shop by the Dog King? You better not go, be careful that your life is not guaranteed. ”

Xie Xun smiled and shook his head, "It's out of the way." I'll just check it out. If it doesn't work, go home. ”

The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief, "Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of running out of firewood." Even the Zhenguo Mansion can't be arrogant all the time, and sooner or later there will be a day of fall. ”

This is what Xie Xun is most worried about. In the long run, the people will hate the Zhenguo Mansion more and more, and even the entire Xie family. Since ancient times, those who win the hearts of the people win the world, although the Xie family does not intend to rebel, they lose the hearts of the people, accumulate and destroy the bones, and ants gather together, and they can also bite the elephant to death.

He must nip the crisis in the cradle.

Thinking of this, a light suddenly flashed in Xie Xun's mind, and a smile appeared on his face again.

He didn't go to Gou Fugui, but came to a ruined temple.

The ruined temple in ancient times was a gathering place for beggars.

Even if it is the capital of a country, where there should be beggars, the number of people is still amazing.

Old and young, dressed in tattered clothes, lying or sitting, crowded the streets outside the ruined temple.

He didn't step forward, but crossed his arms and watched from the mouth of the alley.

Soon, a skinny little beggar like a monkey came up.

The little beggar was only thirteen or fourteen years old, skinny, with two slightly sunken eyes shining with a clever light.

"Your Excellency, are you looking for someone to do something?"

Xie Xun grinned, "How do you know that I am a nobleman?" ”

He was wearing the most ordinary clothes.

The little beggar smiled, revealing a mouthful of neat teeth, "A noble person like you, even if you wear the clothes of a subordinate, you don't look like a slave." You are born with a noble body, and you smell it from afar. ”

Yo, I'm still a sycophant.

"Call all your little brothers and do something for your master. It's done, and I'll give you this number again. Xie Xun lost a silver ingot of five taels.

The little beggar's eyes lit up, and he jumped up to catch it, and then hurriedly stuffed it into his arms, and smiled like a flower.

"If you have any instructions, just say, the little one will help you do it properly."

Xie Xun leaned into the little beggar's ear and muttered quietly for a while.

"How, dare?"

The little beggar clenched his right hand into a fist and slapped his left shoulder twice, "No problem! In Xishi, there is no one who is more afraid of Gou Wangba than our little beggar gang! ”

Xie Xun threw two ingots of silver to the little beggar, "These are for you to ask the storyteller." ”

The little beggar jumped up, "Nobleman, you are generous!" ”

"Ye is generous, but if you dare to take money and do nothing, Ye will pick the skin of everyone in your little beggar gang."

Xie Xun's eyes showed a fierce light, and the whole person became dangerous.

The little beggar still smiled, "Rest assured, the reputation of our little beggar gang is famous in the entire West Market." ”

Xie Xun visited Gou Fugui's hundreds of shops all the way.

I have to say that Gou Fugui is quite business-minded.

The shops he seized were doing very well.

The merchants and vendors in the West Market all know that Gou Fugui is bad, but most of the customers don't know, such as Xie Xun, who has bought things in Gou Fugui's shop during the day.

In a tea shop, Xie Xun happened to see Gou Fugui coming out of the shop.

Thirty or forty years old, fat head and big ears, full of oil, walking and shaking. He sat in the carriage, and Xie Xun felt that the carriage had sunk a few centimeters.

At a glance, Xie Xun could see that Gou Fugui was not the mastermind.

He may be a businessman, and the mastermind behind the scenes used him to smear the reputation of the Zhenguo Mansion and take the opportunity to make a lot of money.

Hundreds of shops, only five taels of net income per day, two months is 30,000 taels.

Those shops were almost looted, and they didn't cost anything.

At the current price, a pound of wheat is only five copper plates, which can be converted according to the exchange of one or two taels of silver for a thousand texts. 60,000 taels is enough for the people behind the scenes to feed an army of 10,000 people for a full year.

If it was found later, Xie Xun would not dare to imagine the consequences.

Xie Xun stood on the street for a while, and after making sure that Gou Fugui would not come back, he turned to the street where he juggled and told stories.

After looking at the shops, he decided to change his strategy.

As long as he withholds the silver, the people behind the scenes will naturally be exposed.

On the way, he heard the people talking from time to time.

"What! You say, isn't that Gou Wangba the maternal uncle of the favorite concubine of the prince of the Zhenguo Mansion? ”

"As I said earlier, Mr. Dai said that the Xie family is a hairpin family, a family of three masters, and Xie Sanye is now fighting against the Rong people in northern Xinjiang, fighting bloodily, protecting the family and defending the country, how can he condone the oppression of the people by his family? Even that Xie Shizi has always only kept the Oiran lady, but he refuses to accept a concubine. That master dislikes the trouble of the concubine. ”

"The concubine is not very troublesome!" A small boss echoed empathetically, "The little concubine in my family has only been in trouble for half a year. I regret taking a concubine. ”

"Mr. Dai really said that anyone who has been persecuted by Na Gou Wangba can go to Jing Zhaoyin to hand over the paper?"

"Will someone drag them away and kill them on the road?"

……

Xie Xun nodded secretly.

The little beggar did a good job.

The people of the Xi clan have not yet deep hatred for the Zhenguo Mansion, and the storyteller is not afraid of whitewashing the reputation of the Zhenguo Mansion.

In fact, what Gou Fugui and others did was indefensible, but those merchants who disappeared shocked everyone, and they would rather believe that it was the support of the Yipin Guogong Mansion that made Gou Fugui bold enough to do those rampant and domineering things.

Now that the balloon has been punctured, those who are dissatisfied with Gou Fugui and want to take revenge in Xishi will soon take up arms and give Gou Fugui and his gang a hard blow.

Xie Xun just needs to open his pockets and wait for the man behind the scenes to come in......
