"Let's go and take a look at the scene with me. No matter what, I have to protect the husband-in-law's property. If such a big thing happens, I will have to give an explanation to the husband-in-law."
Ju Wendou and Chimu Haiya looked bitter.
explain?
You set fire to Fang Jun’s wool, and you also robbed someone else’s grape wine business, and you gave me a shitty explanation!
This move by Guo Xiaoke made both Ju Wendou and Akagi Hague feel afraid.
They welcome Fang Jun and are willing to do business with Fang Jun because they follow the rules. Business affairs should be handled according to the rules of the business. Whoever suffers will take advantage. It pays to be willing to fight or suffer, and the money will be placed here. Everyone will
There is money to be made, and if you don't like it, you can stop doing it. Someone who doesn't dislike it will take your place.
But Guo Xiaoke is different.
This is obviously bureaucracy. I have a strong fist if I have power, and I will grab whatever I like...
Guo Xiaoke dared to attack Fang Jun's property, so how could he care about these Hu merchants from the Western Regions?
The two people, with green faces and white lips, followed Guo Xiaoke cautiously to the Fang family's workshop outside the city.
From a distance, I saw a thick black column of smoke rising straight into the sky, and even the clouds in the sky seemed to dim.
When I got closer, I saw that several large warehouses where wool was originally stored were burning with raging fires. The flames were rolling up and thick black smoke was billowing up. The flames were raging and were sweeping in the houses near the warehouses.
No one was putting out the fire, and there was a confrontation between two parties in the open space in front of the warehouse.
The one with a gray face is obviously the craftsman and laborer in the workshop, while the other is a soldier with bright armor...
There was an old man among the craftsmen whose face was red with excitement: "Everyone is suddenly in flames. You are soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. Why don't you help us put out the fire? Why do you hinder us from putting out the fire? Are you the sons of the Tang Dynasty?
People, or animals from foreign countries?”
Several soldiers were scolded by the old man until their faces turned red.
If we go back to China, soldiers and craftsmen are two completely different classes. If you dare to roar like this, regardless of right or wrong, I will give you a good beating first. But this is the Western Region, a place of barbarians, and the majority of people here
The people of the Tang Dynasty naturally wanted to unite and unite with each other. When one person is in trouble, all parties will support him, and this will show the love and unity of the people of the Tang Dynasty.
What's more, the warehouse stocked with tens of thousands of wool is burning with fire?
But not only can they not put out the fire themselves, they also have to stop the craftsmen in the workshop from putting out the fire!
There is no way, this is a military order...
When Guo Xiaoke arrived, he happened to see the old craftsman aggressively reprimanding the soldiers in front of him. The soldier leader was scolded by the old craftsman and was speechless. His face was full of embarrassment and shame, and he stepped back step by step.
Guo Xiaoke was furious, walked closer, drew out the horizontal knife from his waist, and slashed it down.
The light of the sword flashed, and the old craftsman didn't even utter a scream, but his head was in a different place and he fell to the ground...
The scene suddenly became quiet, and everyone was stunned by this scene.
There is only the sound of burning wool in the large warehouse behind, and the nauseating smell...
Guo Xiaoke angrily scolded: "You are all citizens of the Tang Dynasty, but you gathered together to cause trouble and openly disobeyed military orders. Do you want to rebel? Come here, bring all these people to me and interrogate them strictly to see if they are Turks."
The barbarians planted a trick here to overthrow the Anxi Protectorate!"
The craftsmen in Fangjia Workshop almost couldn't believe their ears. Everyone looked at the corpse of the old craftsman in front of them, and everyone was filled with indignation and anger!
And we did not die in the hands of the barbarians, but died under the sword of our own people?
"General Manager Guo, this workshop is the property of the Fang family, and we are all slaves of the Fang family. We are not convinced by your blatant accusations!"
"That's right, why do you kill people casually?"
"Kill to pay with life, blood to pay with blood!"
"Just wait. When my second son finds out about this, he will settle the score with you sooner or later!"
The craftsmen of the Fang family are really not afraid of Guo Xiaoke, even if someone dies under Guo Xiaoke's knife right in front of them!
Is the Fang family an ordinary family?
The head of the family, Duke Xuanling, was the prime minister of the dynasty, the emperor's minister, and the holy family member Zhenglong! Erlang was the marquis, the emperor's son-in-law, and the general manager!
Who do you think you are, Guo Xiaoke, how dare you provoke the Fang family like this?
Hearing Fang Jun's name, Guo Xiaoke's eyelids jumped, and he had to put down his original intention of killing all these craftsmen. He had also heard of Fang Jun's name for a long time, and even the prince dared to go crazy.
Beating him, if it makes him anxious, it will be difficult to deal with him.
Just give him a face, only touch his property, don't kill his people!
Guo Xiaoke ignored these unyielding ones and turned around to order the soldiers around him: "This fire is burning strangely. This place is the property of the prince's consort. I cannot turn a blind eye. I will search the surrounding area quickly and take all suspects into custody."
Watch and make sure to find out the truth behind the burning house!"
"promise!"
The soldiers who had already received the instructions loudly agreed, and then rushed straight to the brewing workshop not far from the wool warehouse.
Ju Wendou and Akagi Hague are both scheming people. Seeing this posture, the editor Guo Xiaoke had already planned it. Now he went straight to the brewing workshop. I think it was because of the reminders from the two of them just now that Guo Xiaoke was greedy for Fang Jun's secret brewing recipe and wanted to take it in one fell swoop.
The secret recipe is in your hands!
They both didn't care about it.
Founder Guo Xiaoke's arms were thick and his fists were big, so they couldn't resist. If Guo Xiaoke could hold the secret recipe of brewing in his hands, even cooperating with him wouldn't be a bad idea...
The fire in the wool warehouse had already frightened the craftsmen in the brewing workshop. They wanted to go out to put out the fire, but they were blocked by a group of soldiers and were not allowed to go out. Not long after, another group of soldiers rushed into the brewing workshop and ran rampant.
Hit anyone you see.
The steward of the workshop stood up and asked sternly: "This is the property of the Fang family. Why are you so cruel and barbaric? Are you even willing to die?"
Members of the Fang family now have the confidence to say such things, whether within the Tang Dynasty or outside the country.
But the officer in front of him said with a sinister smile on his face: "This is not a small tone. This is Xizhou, under the rule of the Anxi Protector. Our Chief Guo is the King of Heaven. Your Fang family is nothing! Stand aside obediently.
, I won’t do anything difficult for you, but if you dare to speak rudely again, believe it or not, I will chop you with a knife?”
As he spoke, he pulled out the horizontal knife and placed the sharp blade on the steward's neck. The steward was so frightened that his legs trembled and his face turned pale.
"Search for me!"
The officer shouted loudly, and the soldiers behind him rushed into the workshop and searched everywhere.
The person in charge just thought about it for a moment and understood.
It's just a brewery, what's there to search for? And seeing how these people are arrogant and carefree, what they're searching for must be extremely valuable.
What is the most precious thing in a winery?
It's not the wine in the warehouse, nor the grapes used to make wine, but... the secret recipe!
The person in charge immediately became anxious!
He is a son of the Fang family, and it was Fang Jun who personally promoted him to this position, taking care of the winery's property. What Fang Jun values is not his talent, but his loyalty and reliability!
If he allowed the secret recipe to be leaked, how could he have the dignity to return to the Fang family?
What will happen to the family members left behind in the Fang family?
Thinking of this, the steward's heart suddenly trembled, and he suddenly shouted: "I will smash all the filtrate, and not even a jar can be left!"
He does not have the secret recipe, but he knows that the reason why the grape wine produced by Fangjia Winery is of first-class quality and unparalleled in the world is the filtrate transported from Guanzhong! As long as it is processed by these filtrate, no matter how sour the wine is, it will be difficult to enter the throat.
Become the finest wine!
What if these people find out the secret recipe from the filtrate?
Those in charge don’t dare to take this risk!
So even if it means death, he must stop it!
He was not the only one who was loyal. Immediately, a dozen young and strong handymen turned over and rushed to the warehouse in the backyard.
The officer didn't know what the filtrate was, but seeing the steward so nervous, he immediately shouted: "Stop them, stop them!"
The soldiers quickly chased after him.
However, half of the young and strong people closed the door of the warehouse where the filtrate was stored and held it against the door to prevent the soldiers from rushing in. The other half picked up sticks and hard objects and stacked them layer by layer in the warehouse.
The filtrate jar was smashed hard!
"Bang bang bang bang"
The stall was smashed and the filtrate flowed all over the floor.
There is little clay soil in the Western Regions, which are all sandy soils. The floor of the warehouse is only slightly smoothed, not even the green bricks are paved. The filtrate is poured and quickly seeps into the sandy soil and disappears.
The officer gestured with the knife, but in the end he did not dare to kill the steward. Instead, he hit the steward on the forehead with the back of the knife. The steward's forehead was immediately broken, blood flowed profusely, and he fell to the ground with a wailing sound.
When the soldier finally pushed open the door of the warehouse and saw the fragments of the porcelain altar scattered all over the warehouse, he was furious! He also guessed that these things must be very important. How could he not be angry when he saw that all the credit he had received was gone like this?
"Hit! Beat me hard!"
When the soldiers heard this, they immediately let go and beat the craftsmen and workers in the winery severely. They lay on the ground wailing.
Guo Xiaoke suddenly became livid when he heard that the secret recipe had not been found and the raw materials for making wine had been destroyed.
After all, he still didn't dare to go too far. It would be fine if he could find out the secret recipe during the chaos, but since he didn't get it, he didn't dare to detain the manager and torture him to extract a confession.
Do you really think Fang Xuanling is a jobber?
Guo Xiaoke had a dark face and waved his hand: "This fire was caused by labor errors in the wool workshop. The fire is too big and cannot be extinguished. Please evacuate it!"
Leaving behind thick smoke billowing from the fire and wailing craftsmen and laborers everywhere, Guo Xiaoke walked away with his soldiers.
Ju Wendou and Chimu Haiya looked at each other and sighed together.
It would be great if we could get the secret recipe, the quality of the wine would be guaranteed, and the sales would not be too bad. There would be no harm in cooperating with Guo Xiaoke.
But now the secret recipe is not available...
That would be difficult to handle.
Without qualified wine, a sharp drop in sales is inevitable, which means that the income from grape wine will be greatly reduced.
Those are all golden copper coins. Who wouldn't feel sad if they were lost in vain?
But Guo Xiaoke dominates the Western Regions, who dares to resist?
Both of them smiled bitterly and sighed helplessly.
It is said that Fang Jun is a stick, but Manager Guo is even more powerful than Fang Jun...
