Chapter 10: Account Books with Houjin, Salt and Iron
"But I want to fight for it in the end. Listen carefully and don't have any resistance. It's just for yourself and for us, and for a chance."
Fang Jingnan said slowly: "Do you know that the ones you are planning to protect with your life are a group of traitors."
Fang Jingnan continued: "Just a while ago, I saw a book in the Tian family business in Shuozhou City where they bribed generals and civil servants from all over the military town. The purpose was to sell the salt and iron grains that the court had explicitly prohibited for sale outside the pass. The nourishing and strengthening Later Jin turned around and ransacked us, breaking the fort and killing the army. Isn't it disgusting to have such a cycle?"
Wang Dechun finally spoke, and he said, "Yes, but can you kill it all?"
Fang Jingnan smiled and said, "Of course we can't kill them all, but there is one person who can."
Wang Dechunqi said: "Who?"
Fang Jingnan grinned and said, "The Lord of the present!"
Then he said: "These merchants in Shanxi work together with the enemy and sell their country to make a lot of money. The military generals in our border areas know that the famous ministers in the court also know that. Basically everyone knows it, but no one dares to take care of it.
There are a large number of merchants in Zhangjiakou transporting materials every day. We will not mention how complicated the interest line is. But there is no doubt that the current saints are definitely not in this interest line. Those ministers deceive the saints together with their own purposes."
Fang Jingnan concluded: "What we are about to do is to open this layer of window paper to listen to the righteousness!"
Wang Dechun was moved and slowly lowered the knife he raised. Seeing this, Fang Jingnan said again: "We will do this, and we will never buy you dirty water afterwards. All you have to do is to obey the instructions of the garrison officer, close the four doors, and not allow anyone to leave the city. Everything else has nothing to do with you."
After pondering for a long time, Wang Dechun finally bowed and said, "I respect the orders of humble duties!"
"Very good!" Fang Jingnan, who unified his opinion, nodded slightly, turned around and emphasized: "All the goods in the shops on the list were listed as stolen goods and confiscated, and no grain of rice was allowed to be left for me. All the personnel in the shop were listed as collusion criminals and arrested. If there are any resistance, they will be killed on the spot! All shops are closed!"
"Yes!" The group of people looked throbbing, and this made it a little big.
"Boss," Zhao Dazhuang suddenly added after receiving the order, "Are those shops in the Dai Prince's Mansion also closed down? Everyone has been arrested?"
There are only information about the merchants who give gifts on the list, and the shops in the Daiwang Mansion are not inside.
Fang Jingnan was unmoved and said firmly: "There is no exception!"
"Get orders!"
Everyone took action immediately. After half an hour, the teams were ready to go, the iron armor in the garrison station was rustling, and the neighing sounds of war horses filled their ears. At that time, the four cities were closed, and they would clear all the shops and related personnel on the list with lightning speed.
"Set off!"
...
Xicheng District City Gate.
A group of soldiers rushed over, but the leader was not the other person, but the guards stationed in the west gate.
When the Xichengmen General Banner saw the hundred households patrolling, he hurried over to pay a visit.
But Zhan Wudao raised his hand and shouted: "Transfer the order from the garrison officer Ning, and immediately close the west city gate. No one is allowed to open the city gate without obtaining the garrison order. Those who violate the order shall be killed!"
After checking the content of the warrant, the general flag immediately bowed and said, "Sir, the order is respected!"
Then he went to the city wall and waved to the people below and shouted: "The guard has an order. Close the west city gate immediately and pull the suspension bridge up. No one is allowed to enter and exit without authorization. Those who violate the order will be killed!"
The soldiers guarding the city gate immediately returned to the city and quickly dispersed those entering and leaving the city gate. The west gate made a whimpering sound and closed it.
Zhan Wudao did not leave, and walked back and forth on the city tower in iron armor, occasionally looking inside the city. He understood that Huairen City would be different from today.
On the city gate building in Dongcheng District, Qi Wushang, the guard officer of a hundred households, also shouted in a deep voice, "According to the order of the guardian, the Dongcheng Gate will be closed immediately. If the guardian has not been ordered, no one shall open the city gate in and out without authorization. Those who violate the order shall be killed!"
At the same time, on the city gate building in Nancheng District, Wang Congxi, the guard of a hundred households, shouted loudly: "According to the order of the guardian, close the south city gate immediately. Without the guardian, no one is allowed to open the city gate in and out without authorization..."
Wang Dechun went to the north gate in person and replaced the team of Lu Zheng, who was wearing three layers of armor and armed to his teeth.
Immediately, the four gates of Huairen City were closed, and the people who were not sure of the situation were slightly uneasy.
...
Huangji Rice Shop.
Leng Li looked up and looked at the sign at the door of the shop.
This time, Leng Li was the main one, Zhao Dazhuang's team B was guarding the left and right, and Chate, led by Zhao Er, and others were outside to maintain order and detain prisoners.
"You guys are..." A servant ran out to ask.
Bang! Before he finished speaking, Leng Li didn't say anything, and didn't even explain it. He flew out and hit the other party's chest.
Puff! The guy who squirted out a mouthful of blood didn't even have time to react, so he flew backwards into the shop, smashed over the counter inside, and then let out a scream.
"Go and catch." Leng Li waved his hand, and Zhao Dazhuang and others immediately rushed in like wolves and tigers.
With such movement, people were suddenly surrounded by people and whispered to each other.
Leng Li didn't bother to pay attention to these idle words, walked into the shop, stood in the center of the hall with his hands behind his back, and his eyes were coldly scanning around.
"The garrison office is in charge, please leave immediately if you have no connections." Zhang Heng calmly and forcefully drove the guests in the shop away.
"Get all over there and squat down!" Li Chaiya showed a smile on his terrifying face, and drove the guys and servants in the shop to the corner to take care of him.
Someone was really not angry and shouted, "What did we do? Ah..."
Before he finished speaking, he screamed and said something more. He was immediately knocked over to the ground by Li Chaiya with the back of his knife, and then quickly stepped forward to drag him away, throwing him into the crowd of people squatting on the ground.
Li Chaiya was so angry that she stayed in the team yesterday. If he hadn't been afraid of the small dark room, he would have jumped out to chop people.
The pedestrians passing by didn't know what was happening inside, and heard screams and looked outside the door.
The shopkeeper Huang Zhijie was quickly alarmed and ran out of the back hall quickly. When he saw the situation in the shop and then Leng Li standing with his hands behind his back, he immediately understood that someone was taking revenge on the public. He immediately shouted in a deep voice: "What do you want to do? Are you going to make a fuss?"
Although the Huang family is the eight major businessmen in Zhangjiakou and does not care about the number of shops, for Huang Zhijie, the performance test at the end of the year is very important.
Leng Li looked at him coldly, without any emotion in his eyes, "The Guard Office has received news that your shop is involved in affair with the money to resell prohibited goods, so we will search it!"
"We will resell banned goods?" Huang Zhijie was stunned and thought to himself that he would be troublesome. This kind of thing has never been on the surface and has been exposed in public. Could it be that the court can't help but take action? After thinking about it, he pretended to be calm and said, "You are taking revenge on the public, and I want to avenge the official!"
The shopkeeper had already come out, Leng Li didn't talk to him, and glanced at Zhao Dazhuang.
Zhao Dazhuang nodded slightly and joined the ranks of rummaging through boxes and cabinets. After overturning a counter, he pointed to a yellow book under the counter and shouted: "Registration books with Houjin Salt and Iron!"
Zhao Dazhuang shouted loudly, and the crowd watching at the door of the shop was immediately in an uproar.
Leng Li took Huang Ce and flipped it around. Then Liang Liang said in front of Huang Zhijie, "The person who was stolen is captured, what else do you have to say?"
Is there anyone who writes banned goods on the account book so bluntly? This kind of transaction is all passwords. Do you, a group of soldiers, understand?
Huang Zhijie said angrily: "You are framed!"
"What are you worthy of being framed by us."
With a chuckle, Leng Li shouted: "Seal all the supplies in the shop, take away all the people, and seal the shop!"
"You dare!" Huang Zhijie pointed at Leng Li's nose and cursed: "I'm afraid you don't have to eat the things from our Huang family."
Swish! Leng Li suddenly drew his sword, pointed at him at his palm, and slashed it down with one knife.
Tag! The whole palm was cut off immediately and fell to the ground. Huang Zhijie felt a lighter in his right hand, and a stream of passionate blood spurted out, followed by a severe pain, "Ah!" Huang Zhijie screamed.
Leng Li put away his knife expressionlessly and shouted, "Take it away!"
Huang Zhijie dared not resist anymore. He endured the severe pain and walked out with more than a dozen mates in the shop. He thought to himself, "You are done, I will try my best to have a future, and I will report to the clan to kill you."
The onlookers were blocked at the door and were blown away. Leng Li led the people out of the shop. Zhang Heng and Zhang Shun behind him quickly sealed the shop. Two white strips were stuck to the door, with a big "seal" written on it.
Leng Li glanced around and waved his hand and walked towards the house.
A flag embroidered with the word "Dai" is flying at the door. This is the silk and satin farm of the Dai Palace in Huairen City.
Leng Li, who had always had a cold face and was serious, suddenly turned his mouth and showed a weird smile. He waved his hand and said, "Search!"
As one of the first group of old men to follow Fang Jingnan, Leng Li seemed particularly low-key. As more and more people in the Mangying camp, he spoke less, and even when he was with Meng Tiezhu, he listened most.
Many people don’t understand why Leng Li is the captain of two teams, but there is no one under his command, so why he never complains to Fang Jingnan. But many people also know that no matter what Fang Jingnan asks him to do, he will charge forward without hesitation and never retreat.
The intimidation of the supervision was very great in the Mangzi Camp. Leng Li waved his hand and no one thought about whether the royal property could be broken. A group of people rushed in directly, and a burst of smashing sounded inside instantly. A group of customers ran out in a frightened voice.
He Dianbo was soon shocked and said angrily: "It's so turbulent, what are you doing?"
Leng Li said the same thing as before, "The Garrison Office has received news that your shop is involved in an affair with the money to resell prohibited goods. Come and search it!"
At this time, a servant dressed as a guest attached to He Dianbo's ear and told the situation of other shops before.
He Dianbo understood that this was the garrison office making trouble, and sneered: "You will pay the price for today's behavior!" Looking back, he shouted: "Don't move, let them search!"
Fierce confrontation is unwise, life is important.
Leng Li walked aside and kicked over a cabinet directly. In front of everyone, he took out a yellow book with the cover saying "Registration Book with Houjin Salt and Iron" and placed it in the cabinet. Then he picked it up and handed it to He Dianbo, asking, "Is this yours?"
The fat meat on He Dian's thin belly shook and gritted his teeth and said, "No!"
Leng Li suddenly changed his face and shouted sternly: "You dare to argue, come here, beat me!"
Bang, after saying that, Leng Li took the lead and punched him. This time he did not use a knife, but instead used his fist to hammer his pig's face. He Dian's thin mouth and nose were immediately covered in blood, and his blood mixed with broken teeth were thrown out of his mouth, and his whole body was immediately thrown to the ground.
"Don't beat him to death!"
It wasn't enough to finish it, Leng Li waved his hand and greeted him. Zhang Heng, Zhang Shun, Li Chuaya and the other two immediately stepped forward, picked him up and beat him up. Whenever he punched him, He Dianbo screamed in a shrill manner.
If Fang Jingnan hadn't specifically told him that he would have died eight hundred times if he didn't want to kill this person now.
After he was angry, he handed He Dianbo to Zhao Er and others outside, Leng Li led his people to continue to rush to the next family.
