Chapter 52: The Profiteer
There was a dead silence in the crowd, and there was no sound unexpectedly.
After a long while, someone reacted and asked in disbelief:
"Old man Wang... He's dead? ”
"Well... It seems so. Watch him fall, motionless. ”
"How is this possible? Wasn't it okay just now? ”
There was an uproar in the crowd, and no one expected this to happen.
Almost at the same moment, Ruan Hongyu and other existences with high status directly began to run towards the mountain.
Shen Cong, on the other hand, was preparing to leave and no longer get involved in this matter.
There are still a few people from the Wang family at this scene, but there are many people and many people are killed at once, which will inevitably attract the attention of others.
Anyway, as soon as the old man Wang dies, it is estimated that the few people of the Wang family at the scene will not survive, the Zhong family will not let them go, and others will also want to get a piece of the pie.
In addition, they will never know that they destroyed the Wang family in their lives, so they don't need to worry about it at all.
The eyes of the two people not far away kept flashing.
"Unexpectedly, it was the Wang family who lost in the end, it seems that the luck of this Zhong family is really good."
"Shopkeeper, then we are now...?"
"Notify them immediately, you can close the net, attack the Wang family with all your might, and don't provoke the Zhong family for the time being."
"Yes."
Others can't hear these words, but as the only third-grade master present, his strength is definitely beyond the reach of ordinary people.
So, he was the only one present who heard this, except for the two of them.
"That's not... Fang's Pharmacy's shopkeeper? ”
Shen Cong was a little stunned, he didn't expect this shopkeeper to have such thoughts, and, listening to his tone, he should be sure enough to swallow the Wang family.
Even if the Wang family is dead, there are still many masters in the family, although they have been killed by themselves, but others don't know.
It seems that the origin of this shopkeeper is not small.
"Could it be that he is a big cadre?"
Shen Cong quickly thought of this, otherwise, he really couldn't think of any other force in Cloud City that dared to be tough with the Wang family.
If that's the case, then you have to find a way to give Ruan Hongyu a little bit of advice and let her investigate.
Shen Cong didn't want to be a good person, and it didn't matter to him who became the emperor, but it was not good for Daqian to collude with Beimang to invade Daxia and massacre the people of Daxia.
What is the saying?
I'd rather be a peace dog than a troubled world.
In troubled times, there are too many troubles, and the slightest carelessness will be exposed, how can you follow the Gou Dao?
As a result of this competition, within an hour, in the entire Cloud City, in about half a day, the entire Dacheng County Mansion exploded.
From the streets to the alleys, from the warriors to the common people, all of them were discussing this matter, and its popularity even exceeded that of the beginning.
Because the ending was too unexpected.
No one thought that Old Man Wang, who was favored by everyone, would eventually lose to Zhong Linggu.
Even at the last moment, the strength he showed was overwhelming Zhong Linggu.
The result is too incredible to believe.
At the same time, an exclamation also erupted in the Fang Clan's Medicine Hall.
"What do you say? The whole Wang family was killed, and no one was left? ”
"It's true, when we went, the entire Wang family was stained red with blood, and there were corpses everywhere."
"What about the royal treasury?"
"It's all emptied, and there's not a single hair."
"Damn, who got ahead of this? Moreover, how could he have such a powerful force? was able to uproot the Wang family in such a short period of time.
You must know that even if the Wang family dies Old Man Wang, there is a second master, and his cultivation is also in the sixth grade, and there are several other seventh-grade masters.
Could it be the Great Xia Imperial Court? It's impossible, the Great Xia court is not going to take a fancy to a small Wang family, and there is no need to do such a thing that hurts the people's hearts. ”
"The subordinates don't know, but when the subordinates go down, the corpses of the Wang family are hard. Later, other forces rushed to the Wang's house, so the subordinates and the adults quickly evacuated. ”
Fang Shuotian rubbed his temples.
"That's it, since it's been robbed, forget it. However, even if this is the case, you can't waste such a good opportunity in vain, you sent someone to take the opportunity to go out to publicize, just say that the court secretly made a move, and didn't want others to rob the Wang family's property, so they took the lead.
As long as the Great Xia court loses the hearts of the people, it will also be a good thing for us. ”
"Yes."
This matter was quickly passed on to the ears of the people at the bottom, and it was naturally inevitable, causing an uproar again, and its shock level was not weaker than the defeat of the old man of the Wang family in the hands of Zhong Linggu.
After all, the imperial court is a symbol of orthodoxy and should not do such despicable things, but in the eyes of these little people who have no vision, there is no impermeable wall in the world, and if someone says so, then there must be such a thing.
"If you want me to say, this court is really dark! Collecting taxes every day, and there is no shortage of money, it is really dark to kill more than 1,000 people for the sake of the Wang family's money. ”
...
In the blacksmith shop, the two dogs and the others began to talk again.
Shen never understood why they always cared about these things that had nothing to do with them, from the war in Northern Xinjiang to the new development policies of the imperial court... went down to Qingyunfang and sold 100,000 taels for the first time, and the Zhang family and the sister-in-law got along.
Perhaps this will show their far-sightedness and well-informed.
"Master Shen, tell me, is this court black?"
Shen Cong shook his head.
"I don't know, I'm too lazy to care, and it's none of my business."
"Master Shen's words are reasonable, but then again, we lost our bet on Zhong Linggu before, and if you bet on Zhong Linggu, you must have made a lot of money."
Only then did Shen realize that he had returned a thousand taels of silver to the Zhong family before.
There is too much money, a thousand taels is too little, and I forget it if I am not careful.
"The money must be earned, but I haven't gotten it yet, take it back tonight, and invite everyone to Qingyunfang to drink tomorrow."
"Oh, Master Shen is too polite, then we will touch your light."
Shen Cong smiled, people, you can't be tense all the time, the Wang family has been destroyed, and you should also celebrate.
When the time comes, order a table of good wine and good food, and then shout a few big throwers to twist your waist, the waves are turbulent, and you can also nourish your eyes.
So, in the evening, Shen Cong got off work and went to the Qianjia Casino in Yuncheng with his own bills.
When he came to the door of the casino, he found that he was not the only one who bought the Zhong family, but also many opportunistic speculators.
After all, the odds of the Zhong family are very high, and if you spend a little bit of money, you won't lose anything.
However, the atmosphere at the door at the moment is obviously not very good.
"We won the bet, why don't we give us money?"
"I didn't say that I won't give you money, it's that there is no money for the time being, and after these two months, count how many people have bought the Zhong family to win, and I will naturally give you the money."
"What are you kidding? The family is still waiting to buy rice and go back to the pot, and we need money now. ”
"Damn, don't be embarrassed, I said I'll pay it in two months, I'll pay it in two months, and if you dare to shout, don't want a copper."
...
The two upstairs watched the group of people below make trouble, and couldn't help but stroke their beards and chuckle.
"In the end, it's better for the eldest brother to think of a way."
"Hey, hey, hey, the entire Cloud City and even Dacheng County Government, there are only a handful of people who bought the Zhong family, and they can't make trouble, so they will delay them for a few months, and the interest money alone will save a lot, and finally lose some of it. When it comes to the copper in the pocket of our Qian family, if I don't give it a few cubs, then I don't need to have the surname Qian. ”
All this was clearly heard by Shen Cong's strong hearing not far downstairs.
"Good guy, dare to deduct your grandfather's money, the tiger is not powerful, you are a sick cat when you are a grandfather?"
