When Lu Mingyou heard this, he turned around and ran to the furniture factory.
When he appeared next to the furniture factory, he saw a group of craftsmen standing under the large waterwheel from a distance, pointing.
The large waterwheel that was originally running all night long and making rumbling sounds was actually slower than before. The rumbling sound was mixed with sharp and harsh sounds of creaking.
Lu Mingyou rushed forward quickly and asked, "What's going on?"
When everyone saw Lu Mingyou, they stood aside in fear, lowered their heads one by one, and did not dare to speak.
These people are all craftsmen trained by the Lu family.
They are said to be craftsmen, but in fact they are just humble commoners who are illiterate and only know how to do hard work.
It's amazing how quickly they can master the machinery of a furniture factory. It's simply impossible to figure out what's wrong with this behemoth.
The shopkeeper of the furniture factory stammered: "Old... Master... it sounds like something is stuck on it. Should we find someone to remove it?"
Lu Mingyou said angrily: "Why don't you go quickly!"
The shopkeeper hurriedly sent someone, and within a short time, a tall and thick man was called.
This man is a guard of the Lu Mansion. He is now a guard of the furniture factory, protecting the safety of the furniture factory.
After receiving Lu Mingyou's instructions, the man took off his shirt, quickly climbed to the top of the large waterwheel, and observed it carefully.
The man opened his eyes wide, trying to see something clearly, but suddenly he let out a loud roar, his pupils dilated, and his mouth opened wide in surprise...
"ah!"
boom.
The huge waterwheel exploded, and sawdust and water flowed upward into the sky.
The craftsmen standing at the bottom were knocked directly to the ground by the collapsed pillars.
People fled in all directions.
A wooden stick as thick as an arm flew over and knocked Lu Mingyou to the ground.
How is this going?
Lu Mingyou stood up, completely confused.
The huge waterwheel was originally a power tool produced by furniture factories and Tang Dynasty study halls.
Now, it has become a pile of ruins, with scattered parts floating downstream along the current.
The craftsmen around were crying and shouting.
However, a shout from the shopkeeper of the furniture factory brought Lu Mingyou back to his senses.
Just listen to the shopkeeper shouting: "Sir, it's bad, there's a fire in the furniture factory!"
Lu Mingyou turned around and saw thick smoke billowing and flames shooting into the sky inside the furniture factory.
He had no time to be surprised and hurriedly led people up to put out the fire.
However, a large amount of dry wood and sawdust are piled up in the furniture factory. These things will burn easily when exposed to fire, and no matter how many people put out the fire, it will be of no avail.
Lu Mingyou clenched his fists and roared angrily towards the burning furniture factory: "Du He, it must be Du He. All this must be done by Du He. Send people to Hu County quickly and make sure those three people are killed.
All the money of 100,000 yuan must be recovered and it must not fall into the hands of Du He."
However, the people around him haven't had time to set off yet.
But they saw that the masked man in black had already arrived in front of Lu Mingyou, asking for credit and saying: "Master, the three hundred thousand dollars have been delivered and handed over to Du He personally. Du He was very happy, burst into tears with gratitude, and said he would change it."
I’m going to invite you to have hot pot in Hu County someday.”
hot pot?
At this moment, what Lu Mingyou couldn't hear the most was the word "fire".
boom.
He was so angry that he kicked the masked man in black and yelled: "Get out!"
The guy stood up with doubts in his eyes.
At this moment, a middle-aged man ran towards us like flying and shouted: "Sir, it's not good, the Bahe River has swollen."
No way?
Lu Mingyou had a bad premonition in his heart and hurried to the place where Datang Study was located.
The Tang Study was built on a piece of flat land beside the Ba River. Because papermaking and printing require a lot of water, most of the entire study area is flush with the Ba River. A simple building was built on the bank.
Dams block the backflow of river water.
But now, the water of the Bahe River is spreading up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Soon, we reached the top of the embankment.
Once the water overflows the dam, the entire Datang Study Hall will be submerged.
Lu Mingyou panicked.
If it was Du He who caused the water tanker to fall apart and the furniture factory to catch fire, then what on earth is going on when the Bahe River suddenly swells and there is no heavy rain or other natural disasters?
Seeing that the Ba River water had overflowed the dam and a small amount of water was flowing into the study, Lu Mingyou shouted: "Quick, quick, everyone, go to the study and move all the things out."
Unfortunately, no one present dared to move.
It was a sunny day, it hadn't rained for several days, and the water in the Bahe River suddenly rose.
Could it be that He Bo was angry?
An old man said: "This is because He Bo is angry. He Bo has not gotten married this year, so he is angry."
Legend has it that He Bo gets married every year. The so-called marriage is quite simple. That is, at the turn of spring and summer every year, a young and beautiful woman is selected and drowned in the river. She is considered to be the bride of He Bo. From then on, He Bo
If Bo gets angry, there will be no flooding of the dams or anything like that.
Hearing this, Lu Mingyou just wanted to get angry.
boom.
In an instant, the dam collapsed.
Wow.
The water rushed towards the study.
Not long after, most areas of Datang Study were filled with bright river water.
A craftsman said loudly: "It's destroyed, it's all destroyed. The machinery in the study is very precious. Now it's flooded and it's all destroyed."
Lu Mingyou sat helplessly on the ground, his mind buzzing.
He doesn't understand!
He is not willing to give in!
After a while, he suddenly got up and shouted: "Prepare your carriage and horses to go to Hu County. I want to ask Du He face to face."
…
The night is already deep.
At the gate of Hu County Prince Consort's Mansion, several carriages suddenly arrived.
A guard hurried in to report.
"Young Master, Lu Mingyou, the Minister of Civil Affairs, pays his respects." The guard came to Du He and said.
Zhang Jian, Ma Zhou, Zhang Xuansu and others beside Du He were all stunned.
At this time, Lu Mingyou was not afraid of the long journey to such a remote place?
But Du He seemed to have expected it: "Take him to the main hall and wait."
"yes!"
Du He straightened his clothes before slowly walking outside.
On the way to the main hall, Du He thought that Lu Mingyou must be extremely angry, and maybe he would catch him and scold him.
Then should I break his left leg or his right leg?
However, when he walked into the main hall, he saw Lu Mingyou with a calm face, as if nothing happened.
its not right!
Could it be that nothing happened to Datang Furniture Factory and Datang Study?
Du He was a little confused.
He slowly stepped forward and greeted: "Master Lu, thank you for the 300,000 yuan you sent today. I also said that I would treat you to hot pot another day. I didn't expect Master Lu to come uninvited. It just so happened that there happened to be someone at the foot of the mountain today.
A cow committed suicide."
Lu Mingyou waved his hand, "Du He, why should we be polite between you and me? Today, I am here for only one thing. Why did something happen to the furniture factory and the study? Did you do it? This is how you did it.
