Soon everyone discovered that Zhao Jin was very disciplined in his work and would not scrape the ground again and again. As long as you pay according to the rules, you will be peaceful. Even the people of the Smelling Sect gradually relaxed and the city quickly returned to normal.

However, Zhao Jin's power was limited to Xuzhou City, and outside the city was a different world, with its own order and no influence at all.

This is the case with Hejiazhuang, 60 miles away from Xuzhou City. Hejiazhuang is located in the west of Xuzhou City and close to Sanxiantai. Hejiazhuang is not the village where the He family lives, but He Weiyuan's manor.

There are nearly a hundred hectares of land in Hejiazhuang. This scale is nothing among the landlords in Huaibei, and it is just a medium-to-high level. However, the fields in Hejiazhuang are all high-quality irrigated land, which is very rare in Xuzhou, where the land is barren.

Anyone who is familiar with the ground in Xuzhou knows that what really makes money in Hejiazhuang is not the fertile hectares of fertile land, but the markets opened on his land. Hejiazhuang is located on the land hub of Xuzhou, Fengyang Prefecture, Huai'an Prefecture, Yanzhou Prefecture in Shandong, and Guide Prefecture in Henan. If you want to go to these places by land, you must pass the official road next to Hejiazhuang.

Hejiazhuang opened several large shops, received goods on-site and transferred goods, and there were inns and car shops. Merchants also lived here. Over time, Shandong, Henan and local merchants traded here, forming a market.

Buying and selling in this market and then charging a commission is a daily profit-making business, and the He family is also considered a local big-name business.

The reason why it has such a scale is related to He Weiyuan's father, Old Master He. Old Master He has been a juren and a prefecture in several prefectures and counties in eastern Shandong. Although the East Three Prefectures in Shandong are poor places, it does not delay the old master's accumulation of huge wealth and comes back to buy this industry with unique abilities.

Old Master He knew very well that the word wealth and honor are one. No matter how much money you accumulate, it would be a false thing without fame and fortune. He asked a famous teacher to let his only son He Weiyuan study. He Weiyuan was also considered a success. He became a scholar in his teens and a juren in his twenties. In theory, the wealth and honor of the He family must be passed down from generation to generation. He Weiyuan committed a crime in his thirties, and his scandals with several relatives in his house were passed down by his servants, and was directly eliminated by the supervisors in Nanzhili.

This incident made Mr. He so angry that he left the world directly. The huge industry belonged to He Weiyuan. It seems that He Weiyuan wants to be a rich young man and live a lifelong life, but people know that He Wei is not far from disaster.

Sure enough, less than half a year after Mr. He died, a servant of the He family fled and went to the government to complain about the He family's crimes. Then a gentry from Xiao County came to the door and said that if the He family was willing to sell part of the property, this crime would be eliminated.

This is a means of seizing the industry. Everyone understands it very well. The He family has used it more than once back then. No one thinks that the He family can escape. Many people are even ready to move and want to follow it up and take a bite.

He Weiyuan spent a lot of money to go in, but the lawsuit could not be settled. He was about to be forced to the point of failure, but things suddenly changed.

The servant who sued the He family suddenly changed his words and said that he was forced to falsely accuse the master's family. Then the gentry in Xiao County was suddenly thieves, and the whole family was killed. The He family was so safe and sound.

Once, perhaps by chance, after several people who had made the He family's ideas suddenly died, everyone realized that there was something strange and never dared to do anything randomly. Later, He Weiyuan was said to have been a relative of a nobleman in Nanjing, and then made a relative of the Yansheng Gong family in Shandong, and found a backer again, and everything was stable.

More than ten years have passed, and most of the people who are against the He family have died without understanding. The industries that the He family wants to acquire are also successfully obtained. Mr. He from that time has become the current Mr. He and Mr. He.

The He family's house covers a large area, but its location is average. It is close to a mule and horse market. It is noisy all day long, dusty, and the taste is even worse. However, He Weiyuan and He Grandpa He are willing to live here, and no one dares to say anything.

In such a large industry, He Weiyuan was a man who liked to enjoy it back then. The inner house must be magnificent, with wine, sex, wealth and energy gathering. But everyone who has been in it knows that except for He Weiyuan's bedroom, there are a few young maids serving him, the rest are all young and strong men, and they are not the kind of servants who are ordinary wealthy families, and their behaviors are very neat and action.

As the gas is hot today, but under the osmanthus tree that has been around for nearly 30 years in the inner courtyard, it looks very cool. He Weiyuan is sitting under the tree, with a tea table next to it, with a pot of warm rice wine and two dishes of side dishes on it. He Weiyuan is drinking leisurely there. He was overly sweet and deficient in his past. He should be very weak when he was old, but he looks like a young man in his forties, with only white hair indicating his age.

He Weiyuan was very comfortable when drinking and eating. The wine looked simple. The wine was made from the 16-year-old wine selected by Shaoxing’s top winery and then mixed with the new wine. The dish was shrimps from Ningbo and ham slices from Jinhua. This meal cannot be used frequently by people in Jiangnan.

The gate of the huge yard was closed, and only He Weiyuan drank by himself. He Weiyuan squinted his eyes and looked at the Guishu, not knowing whether he was in a daze or seeing something.

"Master, there are relatives in the city." A low-key notification came from outside the gate of the courtyard.

He Weiyuan opened his eyes, picked up a bell on the table and shook it. Hearing the ringtone, the gate of the courtyard was opened, and two middle-aged men walked in in fear and fear.

The two middle-aged men walked in, and two young and strong servants from the He family with swords also followed in, closed the door inside, and stood in front of the door waiting.

If Zhao Jin was there, he would definitely recognize that these two middle-aged men were two of the many legends of the Winter Sect. One of them was the second shopkeeper of the rice shop, and the other was the doctor of You Fang.

The two of them stopped about three steps away from He Weiyuan, and kowtowed together, "Meet the Lord."

"All of them are brothers in the church, why should you be so polite?" He Weiyuan said casually, but without any polite behavior, he still leaned on the chair, but opened his eyes.

The two thieves who were kneeling on the ground did not stand up, but said, "Master, the young men went to see Zhao Jin three days ago and surrendered in person. Everything is fine these days, and Zhao Jin has not done anything to the church members."

He Weiyuan nodded and said calmly: "This young man is scheming and has a very tough method, but he is not so sarcastic in his work. You don't have to worry too much."

Hearing this, the two kneeling below looked at each other, and the doctor of You Fang hesitated and said, "Master, we are the enemies of Brother Li Yang."

"This kind of idiot will die if he dies. What should he care about him?" He Weiyuan said coldly.

"Master, everyone in the city dares to be angry but dare not speak out. Waiting for Master, you, the old man, will make the decision." Halfway through his words, He Weiyuan straightened up.

"Do you dare not speak out if you dare to be angry? Why didn't you dare not speak out if you were Mu Wusheng? Now if you want to make money, you dare not speak out if you dare to be angry or not?" He Weiyuan's voice suddenly became louder.

He was so loud that the two people kneeling on the ground were so scared that they hurriedly bowed. The two young and strong hands standing by the door immediately pressed on the hilt of the knife and were about to come over. He Weiyuan frowned and waved his hand, and the two stopped moving.

"I don't want to restrain you too much, but I'm not asking you to do anything wrong. In the past few months, you have caught a lot of each of the prophets, why are you still not satisfied?" His voice became increasingly severe, and the two prophets kneeling on the ground had already started to tremble.

He Weiyuan patted the handrail and continued, "I paid off all the offerings, and I don't care about how many I am left, but you are so stupid that you are going to provoke a tyrant like the Zhao family. Not only do you want to commit suicide, but you also missed all the traffic in the city. Afterwards, I want me to take revenge for you. Have you been kicked by a donkey in your head?"

The second shopkeeper of the grain store said tremblingly: "Master, the brothers in the church are so popular that they drink spicy food. We have been suffering for six or seven years. Finally, you have been in charge of the situation in the old age, but you are hindered by the evildoers. Our Xuzhou church members are all depressed. If this continues this time, people's hearts will probably be dissipated."

He Weiyuan sneered and said, "If you don't touch Zhao Jin, you won't make money? Yubo, you not only make money, but you heard that your little wife also slept a few times. Gao Daning, how did the two young children around you come from? Do you really think everyone doesn't understand? To put it bluntly, I'm too impatient. I think we teach the crowd, want to establish the power of the Zhao family, and then let go in Xuzhou. There are so many people we can't afford to offend. Do you really think that there are millions of people who can stand out for you in a million?"

His voice lowered again, but the two people on the ground almost fell down and their bodies were trembling. At this time, the gate of the courtyard was snapped again. The servant guarding the gate asked a few words in a low voice and opened the door directly. A middle-aged man in a blue robe leaned in and looked at He Weiyuan, who was sitting under the tree.

"Don't come to me if you have nothing to do. As long as you are stared at by someone with ulterior motives, you can't hide anything." He Weiyuan said impatiently, and the two of them hurriedly kowtowed and said goodbye.

The two of them got up and were about to leave, when He Weiyuan's cold voice came from behind: "Don't say what shouldn't be said, don't do what shouldn't be done, you know the consequences."

The two thieves were so scared that they turned around and knelt down again, and then they dared to get up and leave. When they passed by the middle-aged man in blue robe, they did not dare to neglect them. They bowed and called "Mr. Zhou".

The middle-aged man in blue robe looked at the two men with disdain, just nodded, then strode to He Weiyuan to greet him. Seeing the man coming, a smile appeared on He Weiyuan's face. He gestured to the two servants in front of the door, and the two left and brought them to the door.

"Xuezhi is here." He Weiyuan greeted with a smile.
