Chapter 427: Convincing people with virtue

The prefect He at that time also named this kind of high wall the Fire Wall. So after a month of hard work, thousands of fire walls were built.

Just built.

This fire wall played an active role in the fire and became a unique architectural style in Huizhou. This fire wall also has functions such as sunshade, wind protection, and anti-theft.

Also called Horse Head Wall or Horse Saddle Wall.

Of course.

This kind of high wall that can effectively prevent fire has not been extended to the capital, and the official career of He Zhifu was also not smooth...

This is reasonable.

How can you, a magistrate who does practical things, get promoted and make a fortune!

The phoenix is ​​not allowed among the crows.

In silence.

Tian Hong took another step forward, raised his leg, and tried to kick him over: "I want to ask you, do you have a firewall in your shop?"

The shopkeeper was speechless.

Can't answer.

Shen Lie's eyes widened and he yelled angrily: "You bastard, you don't have a water dragon, you don't have a fire wall. If your rice shop catches fire, can you save it with just these few tanks of water?"

His eyes glared again.

Shen Lie then said solemnly: "Your store is surrounded by shops on the left and right, and residential buildings in front and behind. Once a fire breaks out, it will inevitably get out of control. It's better to burn down the residential buildings. The palace is not far away. If it burns to the Forbidden City... you What kind of crime should a piece of shit deserve?"

"If you want to murder the Queen Mother, you still want to murder Your Majesty!"

Shen Lie scolded, and the rice store manager shuddered, but was speechless after being scolded, and didn't know how to refute.

I think the heat is almost done.

Talk nonsense.

Shen Lie escalated a simple matter of fire prevention to the level of murdering the Queen Mother and the Emperor, and he fell out on the spot.

He waved his hand.

Shen Lie said coldly: "Search!"

I can tolerate the lack of water tanks. There are no wells, water dragons and fire walls. How dare you open a grain store in such a prosperous area?

"snort!"

Then Shen Lie snorted coldly.

Tian Hong and Dao Shisan took the fans and moved separately. Tian Hong took out the ticket he had prepared and stuffed it in, while Dao Shisan had a fierce light in his eyes.

Carrying a knife.

He drove the guards out of the shop, then took out a seal, applied some paste, and sealed the rice shop.

"Go buy it elsewhere."

Look at the confused people on the street.

Shen Lie waved his hand and said with a smile: "Everyone, please go buy grain from other stores. Just outside Chaoyang Gate, there are several grain shops next to Bianyifang that sell cheap grain. If you go there late, it will be gone!"

Tian Hong and others also started shouting.

"Go quickly, neighbors!"

So one spreads it to ten, and ten spreads it to a hundred.

The people walked towards Chaoyang Gate one after another.

I saw the people dispersed.

The front of the rice store soon became empty.

Shen Lie, with his hands behind his back, walked up to the ashen-faced Diao Nu, raised his chin slightly, and said coldly: "I always use virtue to convince people and reason to convince people!"

Are you convinced?

Shen Lie rolled his eyes indifferently and said to himself...

I learned this all from Yan Guanqingliu. The adults of the Wanli Dynasty like to make a fuss out of molehills and put them on the line when they catch trivial matters.

Put on a big hat and throw dirty water.

So……

I also give the adults a guideline and an outline, and treat them in their own way, so that Mr. Jia can understand what it means to make a fuss out of a molehill.

I saw that naughty slave collecting the fine.

Shen Lie then said quietly: "Go back and inform your master to pay the fine immediately, buy the water tanks and water dragons, dig a well, and build a fire sealing wall...it must be completed within ten days."

There was a pause.

Shen Lie's expression relaxed a little, and he added: "If you don't know how to build a fire wall, I can build it for you. You just need to take the silver to the Dongji Office and hand it over to the accountant. Someone will naturally come to dig a well the next day. Build the wall.”

Of course, the cost of digging wells and building walls is very expensive.

"remember!"

Eyes widened.

Shen Lie waved to his followers and said in a deep voice: "Let's go to the next house."

not far away.

In front of another rice store, people were craning their necks to watch the excitement, as well as the rice store's clerks, guards, and shopkeepers all watched eagerly.

The majestic Fan Zi and Jin Yiwei strode over.

Mighty shouts were heard everywhere.

"Tell your people in charge to come out!"

Calling and drinking.

Someone in the crowd suddenly shouted.

"good!"

This sounds good.

It immediately ignited the complaints in the hearts of the people.

In an instant, the long street was filled with cheers, and countless pairs of burning eyes were fixedly looking at this Lord Dongchang who came forward to stand up for the people.

"Master Qingtian is mighty!"

"Please, sir, clean up this bunch of bastards."

Amid curses.

Shen Lie's face was as gloomy as water, and he walked towards the shopkeeper who was wearing silk and satin with an ashen complexion, and opened his mouth under the bright sun.

Smiled.

His white teeth were exposed.

"Do you know about the fire in Changpingcang?"

The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "I know, the villain knows."

This devilish smile is really heart-warming.

night.

At the house of Jia Mian, the head of the household department.

Noisy.

Mr. Jia, who was wearing a fine brocade with a livid face, looked at the grain shopkeepers under him, bumping heads together and discussing.

Especially the goatee shopkeeper who had been beaten, with two slap marks on his face, standing in front of him aggrievedly.

At the end of the day.

There are a total of eighteen large and small grain stores in Beijing under his name, all of which were closed down by factory guards, and he also received a pile of fines. Looking at this pile of incomprehensible fines.

There were also four bright red characters signed Shangdong Jishi Factory. The fat on Jia Mian's face started to twitch, and he muttered bitterly: "Shen Lie, Shen Lie..."

This Shen Lie is really crazy.

He dared to freeze the soil on Tai Sui's head. Not only did he seal up his shop, he also ordered his grain stores to close down for rectification, dig wells, and build firewalls.

Burning with rage.

In anger, Mr. Jia casually picked up the valuable Yuanqinghua tea bowl on the table and threw it to the ground.

With a snapping sound.

Fuzhong.

The shopkeepers, the head of the nursing home, the main house, the second house, the third house... the ladies' relatives also started shouting.

"Fight him!"

"Find a few people and... do it to him at night!"

In this madness.

Jia Mian let out a low roar: "Shut up!"

This was a low growl.

His seventh aunt and eighth aunt were quieted down, and they all looked over eagerly, waiting for Mr. Jia to give everyone an idea.

So Mr. Jia began to make plans. He wanted to ask someone to tear off the seals of the East Factory, but he hesitated in his heart.

I thought of the way Shen Lie was favored in front of the Holy Master.

He, a small head of the household department, really doesn’t dare!

After weighing it again and again.

Mr. Jia then shouted in a low voice: "Prepare the sedan chair and go to the Shanxi Guild Hall!"

This kind of thing.

He can't handle it alone, but the merchants in Puzhou are all in the same spirit. Now that someone like him is being bullied, the Puzhou officials in Beijing will naturally unite.

Stand up for him!

Think about this.

Mr. Jia calmed down and sneered again and again: "This Wanli Dynasty has another traitor."

But when Jia Mian, who was trying to keep his composure, rushed to the Shanxi Guild Hall, he found that the front of the hall was already filled with sedan chairs.

Mr. Jia's heart sank, and an ominous thought came to him. Could it be that all the grain stores of the Jin Gang in Beijing have been sealed up?
