Wu Minghu, like other second batch of Youzhou students who arrived in Chang'an, was working on the same topic all these days.
A survey and establish good relations with the lower-level officials in various offices.
He Haixin and others did this topic once in Yankangfang. Some of the experiences have been summarized and turned into He Haixin and others' teaching materials.
It was just that because the staff were not as good as He Haixin and others when they were doing this project in Yankangfang, they did not enter so quickly. Wu Minghu and others focused on Gu Liubai's current two businesses according to He Haixin's intention.
First, which streets and alleys in Chang'an have the most depressing and difficult things, and the living environment is the worst.
The tranquil alley that made Yang Jiang change his mind before was one of them.
The other is to find out what chaos is happening in the escorts and coolie business in Chang'an now, and what are the inappropriate aspects.
After Wu Minghu arrived at Xuanpingfang, he was having a chat with Xuanpingfang for the first time. He found that there was an alley in Xuanpingfang that many families earned by pushing carts to transport things.
One place that these people often complain about is the southwest point at this time, where huge pillars of fire gushed into the sky.
It was a big warehouse.
It belongs to the Cui family of Qinghe.
The warehouse is divided into two areas. The warehouse in one area contains furniture, most of which are exquisite lacquerware. The warehouse in the other area contains porcelain.
Furniture produced by some workshops in Chang'an, especially lacquerware, is not only shipped to various counties in the Tang Dynasty, but even overseas merchants order in large quantities. As for porcelain, there is no need to mention, which is popular on any commercial road.
I heard from the people in the alley in Xuanpingfang that the Cui warehouse manager was the most fierce. Not only did they ask them to give priority to their work in the warehouse, but they always tried to deduct their wages when they paid the money.
Anyway, it is always thankless to work in that place. If you don’t do it, you can’t do it. How many people are broken by someone’s legs.
Wu Minghu didn't know that Boling Cui suddenly met Gu Liubai.
He only knew that if there was a grudge in this city, the Cui family in Qinghe would definitely be the first. After all, the foreign trade routes of the pass were destroyed by Mr. Gu, so Cui Baita, who was sent to kill Mr. Gu, was killed by Mr. Gu in front of Chang'an people.
He felt that what happened tonight was related to Cui's family in Qinghe.
In addition, the daily homework content of these Youzhou students will be sent to the Mingyue Pavilion for summary by letter. He felt that since Mr. Gu had made arrangements and with Mr. Gu's methods, he might not let go of the warehouse that was very important to the Cui Family in Qinghe when he fought back.
It turns out that he is not wrong.
At this time, the fire in the warehouse was fierce and could not be extinguished for a while.
...
The warehouse of Cui's family in Qinghe was in Anshanfang, next to Lanlingfang where Wang Yehu fought against Li that night.
The warehouse is called Zangzhen Garden. The lacquerware and porcelain stored in it are indeed fine products transported from workshops and kilns around Chang'an.
"What a pity."
Gu Liubai stood at the window of the clinic, and sighed hypocritically as he looked at the firelight over there.
At this time, the fifth prince was already beside him. Looking at the fire pillar soaring into the sky, he couldn't help but shake his head, "It's still a matter of killing people and setting fires, but people outside the pass are fierce."
"You have to do it when you say it." Gu Liubai smiled faintly, "I said, either the Cui family of Boling and Cui family of Qinghe will not move tonight. If you want to move, I will make them feel heartbroken. They want to kill the people who follow me tonight, so I will let them have no home in Chang'an first."
The fifth prince heard what he said and immediately took a breath of air conditioning, "This warehouse that burns such a large size is just the beginning?"
"What's going there?" Gu Liubai glanced at the fifth prince, "Are you a direct lineage of the Li family? Why don't you have the power of the direct lineage of the Li family at all? How bold did you Li family deal with Wang Yehu that night? Why did you think burning a garden is like a great thing?"
The fifth prince thought about it, but he was not convinced, and muttered: "Don't mention me, the direct lineage of Li, I think even my sister would never have thought you would do this. If there were so many eighth-rank people following me, then wouldn't my courage come true?"
"Then you know that I have more than eighth grades and many people." Gu Liubai narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the huge pillar of fire. Thinking that the Boling Cui family began to assassinate those people related to him tonight, as he expected, a cold light flowed out of his eyes. "I didn't do it first, but I found out that they had already done it. The Boling Cui family felt that they were not crowded enough, so they pulled the Qinghe Cui family, but they thought they had a large population. I will let them and those in the city who wanted to secretly play tricks for me tonight, and who was too busy to get busy."
The fifth prince saw the second place getting hot again, and he was too lazy to look at what it was. He thought it must be the territory of these two Cui clans. And listening to Gu Liubai's meaning, I'm afraid that the several large mansions in Boling and Qinghe Cui clan in Chang'an will be burned to scorched earth tonight.
He sighed and said seriously, "What are these people doing if they are nothing to do?"
Pei Yunqi asked at this time, "Gu Shiwu, do you think these people will be furious? Go to the Mingyue Pavilion or come to burn my sword shop tonight?"
Gu Liubai smiled, "I'm afraid they won't come."
...
There is generally a "Kan Palace" around the warehouse where valuable goods are stacked. This name is taken from the "Kan Gua", which symbolizes water and means fire extinguishing.
As soon as Zangzhen Garden started to fire, as the alarm sounded, water dragon chariots were immediately pushed out of the nearby Kan Palace.
But these water dragon cars were stopped outside Zangzhen Garden.
The people who stopped these water dragon chariots were five practitioners wearing white iron masks.
One of the practitioners said seriously, "It is okay to put out a fire, but you can only save outside the wall of Zangzhen Garden. You cannot save it in the wall of Zangzhen Garden. If the fire is too big, people will easily die if they get close to you."
In the surrounding streets and alleys, everyone who heard them was shocked.
The walls of Zangzhen Garden are already tall.
This kind of warehouse is most afraid of stealing. Not only is the walls high, but the walls are also thick.
In fact, although it was burning heavily inside, the flames could not spread outside for a moment.
There is nothing wrong with it outside, is it necessary to save it?
To put it bluntly, this must be the enemy of the warehouse owner. Not only did he set fire, he also stopped people from helping him, and he wanted to burn the warehouse to no end.
Among the people who organized the firefighting, there were naturally practitioners from the Cui clan of Qinghe who rushed over.
Hearing these words, the practitioners of Cui clan of Qinghe naturally could not agree.
"You are looking for death!"
Several practitioners from the Cui clan of Qinghe rushed up immediately.
Then these people died.
There were five practitioners wearing white iron masks blocking the road.
The only one who takes action is the one who speaks in front of his head.
This person speaks very slowly, and it is very difficult to speak Chang'an word by word, but he is a foreigner at first.
But he drew his sword very quickly.
He only used a few swords to go up.
With one sword, these practitioners of the Cui family who rushed up all had a blood hole in their throats without exception.
"Look, I said that if you get too close, you will easily be burned to death."
The man then threw these practitioners from the Cui clan of Qinghe into the fire.
Everyone around me was stunned.
Was this fucking burned to death by accident?
It was clearly because you killed him and threw him in and burned him?
And what was most speechless was that before this man threw the practitioners of the Cui clan from Qinghe into the fire, he quickly dug them out and took down all the things they carried, including swords and other objects.
Is this not a waste at all?
There are many figures of practitioners in the surrounding streets and alleys. When these Qinghe Cui practitioners were plundered and threw them into the fire, some Qinghe Cui people actually arrived.
But none of them dared to speak out, and none of them dared to go up.
Among the dead people, one was a sixth grade and two a fifth grade.
Especially the two practitioners of Qinghe Cui, who practiced the Hopeful Qi method, did not say a word at all.
This person who is difficult to speak Chang'an is not only a seventh-grade monk, but also a seventh-grade peak monk.
...
After the fire broke out in Zangzhen Garden, the second place to catch fire was in Shengyefang.
When the firelight in this place was shining, Princess Huaizhen couldn't sit still.
You don’t have to think that it is Cui Shumei’s mansion.
The Tang Dynasty had clear regulations on the construction of official residences. Princes and officials above the third rank must not use heavy arch caissons, the halls must not exceed five or nine, and the doors and houses must not exceed five or five.
But there are policies from the top and countermeasures from the bottom. The mansions of these powerful families generally occupy a very wide area because they have many descendants and many senior officials in the court.
How many rooms do you build, and I build a few, and these gardens are arranged in an orderly manner. It is really a high-walled courtyard with a deep courtyard.
Of course, many of the Boling Cui clans served as officials in Chang'an, but compared with the other clans in Shengyefang, their houses were not the largest.
Do Gu Liubai really dare to burn it?
How dare you go directly to burn the house that someone has runs for two generations?
And even if you are sure not to burn it to another family, it would be a bit too unfair to give the rest of the family a shot like this?
At this time, she didn't care about her usual demeanor and jumped onto the roof, stretched out her beautiful neck and looked over there.
It turns out that she read it right.
The fire has already risen in the house of Cui's family in Boling and is burning very vigorously.
"How dare he?"
"How could he have thought of such an idea?"
"This is a bit...a little too good, right?"
She stared blankly at the increasingly brighter firelight in the darkness. She couldn't think of any adjectives in her mind, but suddenly a very pleasant thought came up.
It is undeniable that if you are a member of the Mingyue Pavilion, it would be really good to watch this happen.
After several breaths, she returned to her usual appearance, jumped off the roof, and returned to the house.
Before she sat down, she had already thought that the Cui family of Boling and Cui family of Qinghe joined forces and did not plan to enter Yankangfang tonight. She just wanted to kill some people related to Gu Shiwu first, creating some horror atmosphere outside Yankangfang.
I haven't even entered Yankangfang yet, but you just came to burn my old house?
At this time, she could even imagine how shocked the people of the Cui clan of Qinghe and Cui clan of Boling were.
But from this we can see that Gu Liubai has the best protection for his shortcomings.
She is now full of security.
...
Shengyefang is almost all big mansions.
Most of the places live in court officials.
Especially for officials above the fourth rank in Shengyefang, they have seen many storms and waves in their lives, and have seen many powerful characters of all kinds.
But they have never seen such an arrogant arsonist in their lifetime!
There were only seven or eight people who set fire in the courtyard of the Cui family in Boling with torches.
Click on this room and that corner, it seems that it can't burn, and you have to pull some brocade from the room and throw it away.
The key is that all the houses of the Cui family in Boling have started to beat gongs to put out the fire, and these individuals are still setting fires inside.
A group of firefighters were still saving a burning house. One person floated over and ordered a room next to them in front of them.
What is the difference between this and pulling a piece of shit in front of you on your head?
The people in the other mansions in Shengyefang went to the high place to look at the courtyard of the Cui family in Boling.
I can't understand it!
Where have all the people from the Boling Cui family gone?
How can you get someone like entering a state of no one?
And it's been burning for so long, but I haven't seen many practitioners rush over?
The people in the house in the Boling Cui family were inexplicably suffering.
Tonight, aren’t most of the cultivators in the city going out to scatter to various yards to engage in conspiracy and assassination?
As a result, the family stole it.
It's really not just setting fires, it's really stealing.
Those who set fires stuffed them into the deer-skin bag they carried when they saw good things.
No, it really can't be called stealing, it's called Ming robbing.
Of course, there are some practitioners who are in charge of the family, but none of them dare to take action.
Because when the setting fire started, the fastest-reacting practitioner had just reached the fire point, and a tall and covered practitioner had already looked at them and said, "I just saw that the fires are burning strongly here and come to see the fun. Don't force me to kill people, I just came to see it, but if you attack me, I will defend myself. My strength to take action has always been poor."
This person has a Chang'an accent, either.
It has a smell of a Hu people outside the Guan.
But if this person is only a seventh grade, then the practitioners in the mansion of the Cui family in Boling would have to find a way to kill him no matter what.
But this person is an eighth grade!
This person who came here to watch the fun... turned out to be an eighth-grade cultivator!
The Cui clan of Boling used to have an eighth-grade cultivator. The man was named Qiu Dansheng, who was a powerful swordsman.
But now it's gone.
Who dares to move?
...
The officials in the deep courtyards around Shengyefang couldn't understand and couldn't figure it out, but the doormen at home informed them at this time, "A guest came to visit and gave gifts."
"What the hell?"
These officials who watched the fire from a high place all responded the same.
At the middle of the night, someone came to give gifts?
What's going on?
Aren't you here to cause trouble? Don't you just bombard me?
But the concierge's answers were the same.
Others can be driven away without giving face, but this person's face cannot be ignored, because this person is called Duke Pei.
Duke Pei sent someone to give gifts in the middle of the night?
These officials were skeptical, but they had to believe it when they met.
At the entrance of these yards, either the confidant counselors around Pei Guogong or the generals around Pei Guogong.
All of them are really expensive gifts.
Duke Pei also wrote letters to them. When they were venting afterwards, they found that the contents of the letters were the same. "It's all children who make trouble. We adults don't get involved. I've disturbed you. I'll apologize to you. Please accept it with a smile. When I finish this time, I'll come back to drink together."
The news of the two families is not very well-informed. Usually, many deep-seated courtyards are intriguing and not very comfortable, but the fire is burning to the next door tonight, so these people naturally have to communicate with each other.
Once multiple parties have planned, the news will be very well-informed.
So that's the case. The eighth-grade swordsman of the Boling Cui clan has been killed by Gu Shiwu. The Boling Cui clan and the Qinghe Cui clan have revenged Gu Shiwu in the city tonight, but it is hard to say how much revenge is now, but the other party is burning their shops and houses everywhere in Chang'an City.
Qiu Dan is alive and dead?
Just kill an eighth grade?
And now you rushed to the door and burned the house?
Is this a kid's mess?
What happened in Chang'an City, Li doesn't care?
However, when the third flame ignited again, the human spirits of Shengyefang had already begun to wake up from their initial shock.
Whether it is based on the exact news or reasoning, it is the first move of the Boling Cui family.
When Cui from Boling went to follow him, he was discovered, Qiu Dansheng asked Gu Shiwu to have an arm, but Qiu Dansheng died.
The Cui family of Boling took action to kill Gu Shiwu's men, and then the Cui family of Boling was burned to the warehouse and the house.
Speaking of this, if Li family wants to take charge, they have to beat the big board of the Boling Cui family first.
Canglang Sword Sect got into trouble with Gu Shiwu, Canglang Sword Sect was ruined, and Bai Yousi, a powerful Luoyang hero, was so crazy.
The Boling Cui family didn’t know what kind of big loss they would suffer tonight.
After sending the gift, Duke Pei left, he took the gift and then told me, but the officials in Shengyefang couldn't help but jump up wildly when they looked at the generous gift in front of them.
This generous gift is eye-catching.
Apologize?
In front of Duke Pei and his son-in-law, he seemed to be less so handsome now.
Isn’t Miss Pei Er’s sword shop going to open tomorrow?
Forget it, then back up the heavier gifts and give me a gift.
By the way, Miss Pei Er runs a sword shop. Doesn’t she loves jewelry and only loves swords?
Late at night in Shengyefang, many people began to instruct the manager, "Take out all the good swords in our mansion and add some things to Miss Pei Er's sword shop tomorrow as a gift."
At this moment, there were blazing fires elsewhere in the city.
Are they all kids making trouble?
The officials in Shengyefang all looked a little bad.
At this time, they finally understood the way of this green eye.
Most people in Chang'an City are always there, and I will find a way to slander you, but this kid is cruel, and you slander me, so I can cut off your head directly.
It's crazy.
Chapter completed!
