Chapter 24 Making trouble

 There is a saying that if you come out and hang out, you will be able to convince others with your virtue.

As the saying goes, be courteous first and then fight. Du Jing gave Erhuobao a thousand gold to redeem the IOU. Their business was originally a forced buying and selling business.

But they really didn't want to buy it back at all. They even threatened to go to the Duke's Mansion and ask for it from their father if they didn't pay it back within ten days.

When I challenge Fang Xuanling and Yuchi Gong, I really don’t know if they are ignorant and fearless, or if they want money rather than their lives!

We are all foxes for thousands of years, so we have to play Liaozhai. Okay, since it’s so inconsiderate, let’s do it!

Chang'an has a curfew system. The so-called curfew system is not limited to road bans. In addition to closing the market at night, all businesses are also prohibited.

However, businesses like Qin Lou, Chu Pavilion and gambling houses often do better business at night; due to heavy taxes, sophistication and other reasons, Jingzhao Mansion and Wu Houwei have always turned a blind eye and closed their eyes, as long as nothing happens.

.

As for excuses like this, Wu Houwei can easily catch a lot of them. With Du Jing's instructions, the primary schools below have a hundred ways to mess around with things.

No, seeing that it was time for the curfew, other people’s sales were beginning to finish, but the amusement park was still bustling with people and bustling.

The school captain Zeng Ling led a group of Wuhou in, and the shopkeeper Liang Qi was a little confused when he saw this. They were not in conflict with Wuhou's guards! Although they didn't understand it, they still greeted them with a smile.

"Captain Zeng, you are a rare guest that I cannot even invite."

"I am new to Mengding Tea. Please invite me to the second floor and I will personally serve you."

Zeng Ling waved his hand, found a chair, sat down, and said coldly: "Shopkeeper Liang, the curfew time is coming soon, aren't you going to close your business?"

Going out of business?

Liang Qi scratched his head a little. Zeng Ling couldn't understand this unspoken rule! The rule has always been that after the curfew, things in the courtyard belong to them, and those outside the courtyard belong to Marquis Wu to worry about. What's going on today?

Zeng Ling's answer couldn't be simpler. The cities and towns in the defense zone have not been peaceful recently. Thieves have appeared frequently, and there have even been several murder cases. Wu Houwei and Jingzhao Mansion are working hard to arrest the fugitives.

On the order of the general, the Zuowuhouwei area strictly implemented the curfew system, locked up the city, and those who violated the prohibition on taking to the streets will be detained and interrogated; those who violate the rules will be ordered to close their businesses.

Zeng Ling is a person who makes his words clear. If he can come in and remind him, he is already following the rules. There is still half an hour before Bifang. If Liang Qi doesn't send people away and go out of business, his soldiers will have no choice but to do it.

Live.

"Zeng Xiaowei, we are a serious official in Jingzhao Mansion. We pay taxes and pay filial piety, and we have a lot of them."

"You also know that the guests received in this kind of hall are either rich or expensive. If I do as you say, I will offend everyone and ruin my own job."

All fools know that the daily income of this kind of gold-selling cave is an unimaginable amount. How can a small captain in Zengling afford an owner who dares to open such a place in this area?

So Liang Qi used his own job as a metaphor. If Zeng Ling had to do this today, then he would have to be careful about his job. Once he lost his clothes, what would Liang Qi want to do in the Chang'an market?

Just pinch it however you want.

Zeng Ling is not a fool, so how could he not hear the hidden meaning? Normally, he would not cause such trouble. But it was different today. They violated the taboo of Zhonglang General, so they could only be considered unlucky.

So, Zeng Ling sneered and replied: "Shopkeeper Liang, don't use Jingzhao Mansion to pressure me, it's useless! This general is eating the food and wages of Wuhou Wei, and it is not under the control of his Chu Ling Yin."

"Do as you do! Or my brother will do it for you, you choose, I don't care!" After saying that, Zeng Ling shrugged indifferently, and pointed at Wu Hou who followed him intentionally or unintentionally.

Well, I understand, I deliberately came here to cause trouble! Liang Qi nodded, then called for work, and told them that the curfew time has come, please come back tomorrow.

Watching the guests leave cursing, Liang Qi, with a gloomy expression, solemnly said: "Colonel Zeng, is it okay now?"

Haha, Zeng Ling stood up, shook his clothes and armor, and replied with a faint smile: "Shopkeeper Liang, it's just official business, why should you get emotional!"

Will it be fine if you send the person away?

Of course not. At noon the next day, Zeng Ling came again. Liang Qi’s relationship with Jingzhao Mansion had no effect at all. The curfew must not be used as an excuse in broad daylight, so this time they changed directions.

Article 1: In order to catch the fugitive robbers, check the identity documents of all guests and record them in the book.

Article 2: Check whether the fire cylinder and fire extinguishing tools are complete.

Moreover, without giving Liang Qi a chance to speak at all, Wuhou's guards, like a house raider, worked in pairs, holding pens or knives, and immediately caused chaos in the amusement park.

Liang Qi, whose face was as dark as a pot helmet, dropped the jade turtle handle in his hand and said to Zeng Ling through gritted teeth: "Boy, you are playing with fire, do you know that?"

Ke Zengling didn't care. Instead, he tapped Liang Qi's chest and told him seriously that this was just the beginning. From today on, his men will come to clean the place twice a day to ensure that no more guests dare to come here.

As for the reason for Liang Qiwen, he knew it very well. He even dared to touch the sons of the prime minister and the general. They were longevity men who took arsenic because they thought their lives were too long. No matter whose business it was, it was settled.

.

Yes, Liang Qi admitted that if you do this day and night, within a few days, the reputation of the amusement park will be bad. A place that cannot guarantee a safe place for fun is not worthy of patronage by distinguished guests.

When the time comes, without Wu Hou taking action, his boss will kill him.

"Captain Zeng, is there any time for relief?"

"Shopkeeper Liang, do you think this matter is something you can handle at your level?"

For some things, if you dare to set up a trap, you must be willing to take risks! Obviously, Liang Qi overestimated himself. Money is good, but sometimes it bites you.

The reason why Marquis Wu received such an order shows that this matter can no longer be solved with money, but because people want face.

After watching the Wu Hous leave and looking around at the mess, Liang Qi plopped down and sat on the ground.

He knew in his heart that there were only two choices before him, either to ask his boss behind the scenes to mediate, or to find a rope to hang himself.

But Liang Qi didn't dare to go to his boss. Over the years, he had made too many false accounts. What his boss hated most in his life was family thieves. If he was discovered, death would become a very luxurious thing for him. So.

, this matter has been dragged on for ten days, and Liang Qi also spent ten long days in fear.
