On the night when Zhou Tian and Tian Shao negotiated, Tian Shao sent thousands of family members to quietly come to the dock to complete the transaction with Zhou Tian, and then watched Zhou Tian leave by boat, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, and scolded hatefully in his mouth: "Don't let me meet you again!" ”

Zhou Tian sat on the boat with a smile: "I made a lot of money this time!" 1,000 catties of gold, plus 2 million yuan, and 3 million yuan from selling grain in the first two days, which is two and a half times our cost! ”

The next day, the two grain shops on Sunday were closed, and they were listed: Store Transfer!

Tian Shao finally breathed a sigh of relief, and discussed with several other big family elders in the family about sharing the grain, but everyone was silent and unwilling to take over, and finally Tian Shao ate half of it himself, and the rest was forcibly distributed to everyone.

On the third day, Xiangping City was still calm, and the people went to Zhou Tian's grain shop to check, but they returned disappointed.

On the morning of the seventh day, the eighth day of the month

Early in the morning, Zhuang Shaoyou personally opened the door panel of the grain store and officially opened! The location is still the two shops on Sunday, but the signboard is replaced: Zhuang Ji Grain Shop, and the couplet on the door frame has also been changed to two lines of eye-catching characters

Uplink: Buy a liter and get a liter free

Downlink: How much to have a grain and a lot

Horizontal batch: Tong Su is not bullied

Even the price was written on a big card: 321 liters of coarse grains (wheat) and 41 liters of fine grains (flour)! There are also tricks, a specialty of the South Seas, corn! Twenty-one liters! Buy 1 get 1 free!

The price is the same as other grain stores, but buy one get one free, which is equivalent to half price!

What's going on with this corn? It turned out that at the beginning of the month, the summer grain corn in Qiqi County was harvested, 8,000 hectares of corn fields, a total of 1.2 million hu, Guoyuan bought 100,000 hu at the price of 181 hu, and there were a total of 100,000 and 50,000 husks of corn in the official warehouse, so Zhuang Shaoyou directly loaded the extra fraction, 50,000 hu corn and wheat to Xiangping together, and tried to sell it to see how the situation was.

In less than half a day, almost the whole city was in a sensation, and tens of thousands of people were empty, and the people who came to line up to buy grain flocked to the three main streets.

When Gongsun Du heard the report from his subordinates in the mansion, he immediately laughed, and couldn't help but scold: "Stinky little, you have made such a big move for the old man again!" ”

Tian Shao's Mansion, these days have stopped, Tian Shao is also sweeping away the haze, and his mood is gradually getting better.

"Smack!" Tian Shao took the case: "It's too much to deceive people! Is it true that Tian Shao is a soft eggplant in the pot? Who dares to pinch two? ”

"You! Come here! ”

The guy hurried up again, Tian Shao whispered a few words in his ear, the guy was shocked, but he quickly nodded in agreement, and then withdrew.

Tian Shao sneered and said to himself: "Hmph! It doesn't matter who you are! Fight me? You can't eat and walk around! Is the money in Xiangping City so easy to make? ”

…………

Late at night, outside Xiangping City, Zhuang Shaoyou sat in the cabin, discussing something. Suddenly, I heard a report from my subordinates: "General, dozens of people came to the vicinity of the ship just now, and it seems that they wanted to set fire to the ship, but they were discovered by the secret sentry on guard, so they didn't succeed." News came from the city that the two grain shops were all on fire, and the fire was extinguished too slowly, and the grain shops were burned, and the perpetrators were not caught. ”

Zhuang Shaoyou smiled: "I still have to come, but I didn't expect it to be so fast, burn it!" It's good to burn it! Anyway, the food in the shop is almost sold! Just burn it and cover it again! The people who set the fire have all been shut up for me, and I will be sent to Lord Taishou for interrogation early tomorrow morning! ”

The next morning, Zhuang Shaoyou got up early and said to himself: "It's time for the old man to appear!" ”

Half an hour later, outside the burned grain shop in Xiangping East City, Zhuang Shaoyou threw himself in front of the burned grain shop in ruins, and cried loudly with a handful of snot and tears: "My grain! It's the old food shop of which dog day! I don't share the sky with him! Brothers, follow me to the Taishou Mansion to avenge grievances! Please do justice for us! ”

After that, Zhuang Shaoyou stopped crying, wiped away a few tears that he had managed to squeeze out, stood up, and walked towards Taishou Mansion with dozens of subordinates.

The crowd around the audience was full of discussions

"It's so miserable, overnight, such a good grain shop was burned like this!"

"Who said it wasn't, I bought a bucket of wheat here yesterday, and they gave me a bucket, I went back and weighed it, it was really a child! I knew I would have bought more, this is good, it was burned by others! ”

"I heard that before this shop there was a ruffian here to make trouble, I don't know why the owner suddenly transferred the shop, yesterday this place just reopened, I didn't expect it to be burned that night, it's really a lack of morality!"

"Absolutely lacking in virtue! The eight achievements are that those grain merchants saw that this shop was not pleasing to the eye, and squeezed the previous owner away, this time it was even more ruthless, and the shop was burned directly, which did not allow him to sell low-cost grain, and in the end it was our people who suffered! ”

"Folks, follow me to the Taishou Mansion and support the grain shop owner, and let Lord Taishou find out the murderer! Give the owner a fair remark, and return the low-cost grain to our people! ”

"That's right! Give us back low-cost food! ”

The surrounding people heard that someone took the lead, and immediately became excited, and immediately followed to run to the Taishou Mansion, and the people on the road also came to join in the fun, and finally when they arrived at the Taishou Mansion, more than 10,000 people had gathered, and most of them didn't know what was going on, so they followed to see the excitement!

After Zhuang Shaoyou entered the Taishou Mansion for more than half an hour, the main gate of the Taishou Mansion was opened, and more than a dozen heralds rushed out, avoiding the crowd and scattering around the city. The barracks around the city gates began to move, and tens of thousands of soldiers began to go out into the streets, checking passers-by and searching from house to house.

In Tian Shao's mansion, Tian Shao was furious in the study: "Waste! It's all rubbish! I can't even do anything! was even arrested! What if this implicates the Idan Mansion? ”

"Master, why don't I go and find General Song in the Taishou Mansion and click those people?" The subordinate said as he struck a neck-wiping pose.

Tian Shao pondered for a while, but before he could agree, another subordinate came from outside the door to report: "Master! Master! Oh no! Outside the door, there are hundreds of officials and soldiers who are guarding the mansion, and they want to come to the mansion to search for criminals! ”

When Tian Shao heard this, he was shocked and a little annoyed, he no longer hesitated, and said to the previous subordinates: "Just do as you say, remember to do it cleanly, don't let me wipe your ass again!" ”

At the gate of Tianfu, five hundred soldiers gathered here, led by a young general, confronted the Tianfu family at the gate of the mansion.

It didn't take long to see Tian Shao come out angrily and scolded: "

"Bastard! How dare you come to my Tianfu to search, what kind of place are you in my Tianfu?! ”

"Master Tian, last night two grain shops in the East Market were set on fire, this morning the owner of the grain shop ran to the Taishou Mansion to complain, Lord Taishou sent me to wait for the whole city to arrest the culprit! The last general is also acting on orders, and he also asks Master Tian to make it convenient! ”

"Shit! What does the fire in the East Market have to do with me? Today, I'm here, I'll see who dares to enter the door and search! ”

The young general smiled and said, "Since this is the case, then the general has no choice but to invite Lord Taishou to come in person!" Come! I went to invite Lord Taishou to come to Tianfu, and said that Master Tian resisted the search, and his subordinates did not dare to make decisions without authorization, so please make a decision! ”

"Humph! Even if Gongsun Du came in person, he didn't want to step into my Tianfu! ”

Half an hour later, at the gate of talent, Gongsun Du galloped with five hundred soldiers on horseback, followed by tens of thousands of people, all of whom followed Zhuang Shaoyou to the Taishou Mansion to ask Lord Taishou to uphold justice.

Gongsun Du rode his horse to the gate of Tianfu, did not dismount, stood there, and asked the young general, "What's the matter?" Didn't you go from house to house? What are you doing here? ”

The young general hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, explaining: "My lord, my subordinates brought people to search, but Master Tian didn't let me wait to go in, and I didn't dare to make decisions without permission, so I had to work as an adult, and my subordinates were incompetent, please punish my lord!" ”

Gongsun Du snorted coldly, pretending to be displeased: "Okay, hurry up and go in and search, and if you delay any longer, military law will be engaged!" ”

"Yes!"

Tian Shao was a little drumming when he saw Gongsun Du in person, but when he saw his nobodyly appearance, he was immediately angry, and couldn't help but scold: "Gongsun Du! Don't deceive people too much! What do I have to do with the burning of the grain shop! Don't you want to go into the house and search today! ”

Gongsun Du turned his head at this time, looked at Tian Shao, and said loudly: "My Gongsun Du is the Taishou of Liaodong County, it is my duty to guard the land and the people, and the burning of the grain shop is very important, and it is closely related to the people, and the people's affairs are no small matter!" This is the consistent principle of Ben Taishou! ”

"Good!" The surrounding onlookers immediately expressed their support for Gongsun Du's righteous act.

"That's right! Let Gongsun-sama go in and search! The surrounding tens of thousands of people were in turmoil, which suddenly made Tian Shao's pressure double, and he was at a loss for a while.

Gongsun Duxin is very happy, huh! The line just now is good, and it is deeply in line with public opinion, how can you let go of such an opportunity to win the hearts of the people for free? So he continued to add oil and vinegar and said: "Tian Shao, in the case of the burning of the grain shop last night, Ben Taishou suspected that it was the revenge of the illegal grain merchants in the city, so he asked the whole city, Ben Taishou must arrest the criminal, return the grain shop to justice, and return the people to justice!" ”

"Gongsun is wise!"

"Long live Gongsun-sama!"

Gongsun Du saw that the fire was almost over, so he instructed the young general under him: "You, quickly bring someone in to search, remember, be lighter, the things in Master Tian's mansion are very valuable!" You can't afford to pay for it! ”

"Subordinates obey!"
