After Qi Yuanzhen and his minions left in a show of force, You Yong, who was almost collapsed, fell to the ground with a pop, as if his energy had been drained from his body, and began to think hard.
The result of thinking hard is still helpless and hopeless.
In the face of class disparity, any struggle is meaningless and futile. No matter how strong the leek is, it cannot stop the sharp sickle.
Unless the leeks can stay in groups to increase resistance.
However, the onlookers all dared to be angry but did not dare to speak out. They did not even dare to say a word of sympathy, let alone rallying in support.
They were so scared that they burned themselves.
In fact, it was not that You Yong had not thought of a way to fight, but he died on the way.
For example, go to Yongchuan Mansion to seek help from Mr. Qi.
However, the old people told him not to be so naive.
The so-called past kindness is nothing more than a mutually beneficial and win-win transaction under the circumstances at that time, and nothing else.
At that time, Mr. Qi gave all that was due to your father You Xiang without hesitation. There was no saying who owed it to whom!
Furthermore, what kind of person Qi Shaobao is, can you see it if you want to? Even if you can see him, he may not have the time to take care of it.
So, you’d better give up on this!
After hearing these words, You Yong couldn't help but look up to the sky and sighed: Apart from Mr. Qi, who else can he turn to?
The current situation is that there is no way out.
Oh no!
There is another way available.
That means running away from home, wandering in the world, and never returning home.
Thinking of this, You Yong gritted his teeth and said: "That's all, if you can't offend me, why can't you hide? Thirty-six strategies, walking is the best strategy."
But at this moment, a kindly big hand suddenly lifted him up slowly.
You Yong looked up in shock, startled, and then said in a trembling voice: "You are..."
"Recognize me? Just don't make any noise for now, let's talk about it at home."
"Home? Ah... yes!"
This person is naturally Mr. Qi who was watching just now.
It's just that he made some disguises and didn't attract much attention.
You Yong calmed down and hurriedly ran home, shouting as he ran: Mother-in-law, make tea quickly!
Originally, Qi Yu wanted to invite shopkeeper Qian to sit with him at Youjia for a while, but this suggestion was repeatedly declined by the latter.
At present, people are discussing important matters, how can I not know what to do and stir up trouble?
So, shopkeeper Qian left decisively.
Before leaving, he held Mr. Qi's hand tightly and said: If we say goodbye today, I'm afraid we may never see each other again.
Take care of yourself!
…
Shao Qing, Qi Yu and You Yong were sitting up and down in the living room of You's house, drinking tea and chatting secretly.
Since Qi Dalang was still concerned about the fetters of entering the city, he declined the latter's suggestion to fulfill his friendship as a landlord.
"My dear nephew, you might as well tell me the general story of this matter, so that I can find a way to deal with it."
"Ah! Thank you so much, Shaobao, for your help."
It is not difficult to tell from the above words that Mr. Qi has made it clear that he wants to intervene in this matter. This is undoubtedly good news for the desperate Youyong.
It can be said to be a rebirth from despair.
After You Yong stabilized his fluctuating mood, he clearly revealed the reason.
He said that after his father drove to Hexi, Qi Yuanzhen deceived him into going to his place by coincidence, taking advantage of the poor geomantic omen of the burial place. Then, he discussed a lot of unlucky things as if it were serious.
.
After gaining trust, Qi Yuanzhen suddenly proposed the idea of playing a few games. He said that this move was to relieve the heaviness caused by the funeral.
Most people would not refuse such a small thing, and Youyong is no exception.
So, the two of them chatted and played chess.
Qi Yuanzhen pretended not to be good at games and begged the other party to give up his third son, but You Yong didn't think much and readily agreed.
As a result, the person who set up the game won three games in a row.
After withdrawing from the chess game, Qi Yuanzhen revealed his true colors.
He suddenly added that these three chess games were gambling games with real money and silver, and the gambling capital for each game was set at one thousand taels of silver, and so on.
You Yong naturally refused to obey, and then his subordinates forced him to press his fingerprints on the case.
The next thing will become a matter of course.
As long as there are documents, no one will be able to argue.
In the end, You Yong made a compromise and handed over his family property to ensure safety. However, Qi Yuanzhen kept making further progress and pressing harder step by step.
In this way, the Youjia family fell into decline.
Although You Yong was afraid, he still had the courage to ask: We have no quarrels or hatred with each other, why are you targeting my family?
Qi Yuanzhen pointed at him and said: Back then, if it weren't for You Xiang's help, how could Qi Yu have successfully entered the imperial examination? Since he has done something he shouldn't have done, he must pay the price for it.
Of course, coveting the You family's property is also one of the reasons.
After Qi Yu heard this, he couldn't help but get angry and slapped the case angrily.
"Such a scum has really insulted our ancestors! Huh, it's time to clean up the house!"
"I hope your lord can help me make the decision!"
Qi Yu nodded in agreement and asked again: "There are rumors that Qi Yuanzhen's fame was bought with money. I wonder if this is true or false?"
You Yong replied: "There is indeed such a statement, but whether it is true or false has not yet been determined."
"It's okay, let's talk about it!"
"There are rumors in the market that a businessman named Jin Yunhao came to Yongchuan from Qiongzhou and planned to buy some high-quality grain here. Qi Yuanzhen happened to have a similar odor with him, so he became his operating partner
.”
Kim Yunho?
Why does it sound a bit like the name of Korean Bangzi?
Moreover, he is still from Qiongzhou.
In my memory, it seems that this surname has never existed in the jurisdiction. Could it be that... it was a recent migration?
Qi Yu concealed his confusion and then asked: "What happened next?"
You Yong continued: "Later, the businessman named Jin left because of urgent matters, so he entrusted Qi Yuanzhen with the matter of raising food. In order to show his sincerity, he directly bought a title for the latter. In addition, he also
He betrothed his accompanying daughter to Qi Yuanzhen as his wife, and asked her to help with food preparation."
Raising food...
Now that the famine is over, why is this man so keen on hoarding food?
And for this matter, he even got his daughter involved. No matter how you analyze it, it feels a bit ridiculous.
As the saying goes, when things go wrong, there must be a monster!
Therefore, we must get to the bottom of it.
As for how to investigate, Qi Yu has already figured out a feasible entry point.
Since the man named Jin once did business in Qiongzhou, there must be corresponding legends about him in the chamber of commerce. In this case, why not call your brother-in-law over and ask?
Fortunately, his former residence is not far away, so it is very convenient to travel there.
"Come here, go and invite my brother-in-law Sun Dacai. Tell him that I have something important to do with him!"
