In front of the people of the capital, Tian Hong kicked the shopkeeper of Mipu hard, shaking the factory guard's breeze.
Tian Hong was originally a practicing practitioner.
Highly skilled in martial arts.
This kick was too harsh.
The wealthy Diao slave was kicked so hard that he let out a cry of pain, staggered back a few steps, and a trace of blood slowly spilled out from the corner of his mouth.
"My lord is asking you, how do you prevent fire in your store?"
surrounding.
A dozen fierce guards from Midian rushed over one after another, and Dao Shisan and others also held their hands on the handles of their knives, preparing for a fight.
But Shen Lie watched coldly, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth, thinking silently in his heart: "Are these all Mipu's guards?"
So fierce.
This shows that they are all Jianghu people.
Not to mention ordinary people who can't afford to offend them, even the soldiers from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division and the government officials from Shuntian Prefecture are no match for this group of people.
You won’t know if you don’t check, but you’ll be shocked if you check.
Shen Lie understood in his heart.
This Master Jia is really extraordinary.
When speaking.
The shopkeeper endured the pain, straightened his back, stopped the nurse who was about to rush forward with his eyes, and still nodded and bowed with an apology.
A good man doesn't eat what's in front of him.
The shopkeeper who was beaten hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, is it fire-proof... Yes, of course there is... There are several water tanks in the backyard, containing water and sand."
This is a must-have item in the rice store.
"Um."
Shen Lie nodded.
He put his hands behind his back.
He led a group of subordinates into the backyard and narrowed his eyes when he looked at a water tank, piles of sand, and stacks of rice and grain in the yard.
Where did the food in Changpingcang of the imperial court go?
Here it is!
Walked around the backyard.
Shen Lie suddenly darkened his face, looked at the large water tank, and asked coldly: "Are these the only fire prevention measures for such a large grain store?"
The shopkeeper was stunned and responded instinctively: "Sir, sir...yes!"
Is it fireproof?
Aren't you allowed to use sand and water instead?
The shopkeeper was confused and said cautiously: "What do you mean, sir? All the shops around here are like this."
But Shen Lie's face darkened again, and he scolded: "You bastard!"
When speaking.
Shen Lie then raised his legs, stretched out his feet, kicked the water tank twice, and said angrily: "I want to ask you, if the weather is so dry and the wind is strong, if there is really a fire in your store, how can you rely on this alone?" Can a water tank and a few piles of sand be destroyed?"
aside.
Tian Hong's eyes widened again and he said fiercely: "My master is asking you a question!"
The shopkeeper was dumbfounded.
He was speechless.
The store is full of food. If it really catches fire, let alone a water tank with piles of sand and soil, even if he, the shopkeeper, fills it in, it won't be able to put it out!
In silence.
Shen Lie then said solemnly: "Since I have received the sacred mandate to investigate the fire prevention matters of merchants in the capital, I must naturally fulfill my duties..."
When saying this.
Guard Sword Thirteen took out the bright yellow imperial edict from his arms.
Bright, bright.
"Here's the Holy Apostle!"
Just one sentence shook the place, and the fearful slave's legs weakened, and he instinctively knelt on the ground, trembling like a quail.
Shen Lie said angrily: "Get up, the ground is cold. Do you... want to read the imperial edict?"
This is a decree that I just obtained from Lord Long Live.
How much do you want?
I can wholesale it to you.
A mere slave from a wealthy family, although he said he had seen some things in the world, he had never seen an imperial edict in his life. He was frightened when he saw the imperial edict.
Where can I dare to see it?
Divine protection.
Shen Lie then walked along the backyard and began to give orders: "Add a water tank here, and here...the water tank should be bigger!"
"Fire and disaster prevention are of great importance, and human life is at stake..."
As Shen Lie muttered, he started gesticulating and planning. In order to prevent fire, he would first get me ten large water tanks.
They are lined up in the backyard, and they are all filled with water.
It looks neat too.
As soon as he said this, Diao Nu, who was kneeling on the ground, was dumbfounded on the spot. What kind of place is this? This is the junction of the Inner Imperial City and the Outer Imperial City.
Every inch of land is valuable!
If there were ten large water tanks lined up in a row, it would be too troublesome where to store the food, and how to walk, with cars, horses, servants, and all kinds of people coming in and out.
Is this business still possible?
"grown ups!"
The naughty slave got anxious, got up and said harshly: "Sir, please don't bully others too much!"
"Why?"
When Shen Lie saw this posture, he became unhappy on the spot. He rolled his eyes and grinned: "What, do you want to teach me how to do things?"
The naughty slave's face turned livid, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I don't dare, a villain."
Shen Lie then said solemnly: "It seems that there are too few... Then give me twenty!"
surrounding.
Tian Hong, Dao Shisan and others all agreed and shouted angrily: "My lord, that's what you said."
"Your Excellency is wise!"
In the commotion.
The Diao Nu's eyes rolled around, he covered his painful heart, gritted his teeth and admitted: "Sir... what I'm saying is, I'm going to ask someone to do it right now!"
I can see it.
The factory guard's attitude is just to find trouble.
Admit it.
"Why!"
Seeing this wealthy and unruly slave, he relented.
Accepted the mistake.
Shen Liecai nodded with satisfaction, and then warned carefully: "Remember, take the silver to the newly opened water tank shop next to the Willow Alley outside Chaoyangmen... If you buy the wrong thing, I will not recognize! "
The rice store manager was dumbfounded again.
Whose property does this newly opened water tank store belong to...
Do you even need to ask?
But.
With another roll of his eyes, this naughty slave hurriedly responded: "Yes, yes, I understand."
I can see it.
This is what blackmail comes from.
Just go and buy it from whichever store he tells you to buy it from.
Just think of it as a way to avoid losing money and avoid disaster.
But turn around.
Shen Lie smiled and said calmly to the shopkeeper of the rice shop: "Just having a water tank is not enough. If it catches fire, what if people can't come in... I want to ask you, do you have a water dragon or a fire wall in your shop? What?"
These words made the shopkeeper dumbfounded again, and he was so stunned that he couldn't speak.
He knows the water dragon.
But there is none in the store.
Too troublesome.
Because if you want to build a water dragon, you have to dig a well first. How to dig a well in this place where the land is so precious? The noise is too big!
Let’s leave aside the water dragon for now.
But.
Even though the shopkeeper has traveled extensively, is well-informed, and is a scholar who has read books, he has never heard of it in his life.
There is a kind of wall in this world called the fire wall.
So this naughty slave had no choice but to watch Shen Lie get rich, his expression seemed to say.
What is a firewall?
"Um?"
Shen Lie frowned and waved his hand.
Tian Hong understood, took out a pamphlet and threw it over, then scolded: "Watch it, idiot... This is the regulation promulgated by the imperial court in the 16th year of Hongzhi."
I don’t know where this came from the fire prevention regulations.
It is written like this.
"As the saying goes, it is up to the sky to reduce fire and to prevent dangers on people. The best strategy is to cure the wall."
The fire wall was invented by a Huizhou magistrate named He Xin during the Hongzhi period.
There was a huge fire in Huizhou at that time.
People and businesses suffered heavy losses.
The prefect He Xin personally led people to investigate the scene. He found that the fire spread from one wall to another.
So this smart man thought of a way. If the wall was raised, wouldn't it be able to prevent the fire from spreading?
