Xinye County, Wujia courtyard.
Old man Wu was surprised and angry when he looked at the county captain and the woman county magistrate who suddenly broke in.
"What are you doing? Is there any royal law to break into my private house in broad daylight? "
"Old man Wu, your Wu family colluded with the imperial court to disrupt the order of Xinye market and plotted against the law. The county captain was ordered to arrest your family, young and old. If you are wise and clever, you will be caught, otherwise the sword will have no eyes."
The veteran County captain held a knife handle in his hand and glanced at the servant guard yard in front of him. He said with awe inspiring righteousness. The woman County Cheng and several servant concubines followed him, but their faces were a little red.
That sounds awkward.
No, old man Wu was so angry that he trembled, pointed to him and roared, "ridiculous, that Jimin firm even opened the door to do business. It's natural for my Wu family to go shopping. Why should we disturb the market order?
As for collusion with the imperial court, it is a great fallacy to plot against the wrong side of the world. Since ancient times, only collusion with thieves, which one said that colluding with the court
"Hum, in that case, why do you Wu family want to buy it secretly instead of going openly? It's obviously a guilty conscience. Bring it up! "
With a wave of the county captain's hand, several local ruffians were brought in and thrown on the ground.
"Strong words are unreasonable. You obviously want to add crime. Why don't you have no words?"
"Hum, why do you hire someone to buy it secretly?" The county captain glanced at the women's dependents hiding behind, with a cruel face.
"Well... Well, I don't have enough people in my family, can't I?" Old man Wu hesitated and felt guilty.
"Ha ha, it's not a guilty conscience. I'm too lazy to talk to you. Today, the Japanese County Lieutenant only catches the Wu family, which has nothing to do with others. If there are any obstructions, they will be killed without amnesty. Come and take all the Wu family."
The county captain also knew to be reasonable. He was sure he couldn't speak the old thing, so he waved his big hand directly.
A soldier rushed up at once.
Looking at the big knife and long gun flashing with cold light, I heard that only the Wu family was arrested. Hundreds of family Ding hesitated and finally didn't dare to resist.
This made Mr. Wu angry and scolded, but then he was pressed on the ground and tied up by the soldiers who rushed up. Seeing this, the servants threw their weapons on the ground and let them aside.
In less than a moment, dozens of men, women and children of the Wu family were caught in the yard.
Except for adult men, others were not bound. Of course, it was inevitable to be touched by soldiers during the period.
At the same time, there were four other houses in the city.
Until then, the female county magistrate began to clean up the mess and count money, grain and various materials.
Except for the servant surnamed Wu, who made some money to dissolve, the other servants and concubines were taken under the command of the county magistrate.
After all, although there are officials and captors in Xinye County, the newly added 20 counties need a lot of manpower.
Although only four of them were raided, they were basically the top and large families with prestige, which scared the remaining dozen gentry and landlords to stay at home and tremble and panic all day.
Only then did the county magistrate stand up and invite all the gentry and landlords to the county government for discussion.
He hinted and asked the people to go back and sell all the salt and grain they had hoarded these days at the price of Jimin commercial firm. Then it was over.
The Chinese army still spoke some truth. Instead of directly confiscating their food and salt, they allowed them to sell.
As for the fate of those companies that were raided, everyone was out of mind.
After a big deal, I often go to the church Secretary to visit my former sister-in-law, sister-in-law and niece. If I can redeem them with money, I'll redeem them.
After this, the people also understand that it is meaningless to make a knife and Zu for man and fish for me.
In my heart, I decided not to do any more moths in the future, so I stayed at home, waited for the arrival of the Imperial Army, and then turned over to be the master.
In just one day, more than 40 large families in Nanyang were seized, and thousands of people were imprisoned in Nanyang.
Apart from gold and silver being escorted to Nanyang, all the money, grain and materials obtained were handed over to commercial firms for sale. In addition, other large businesses opened their doors one after another. For a time, Nanyang's commerce and trade prospered again.
Qin Huan naturally knew that if he didn't produce anything, he would eventually be strangled by businessmen in the south of the Yangtze River and controlled by others.
Even if there are no other things, it's a big deal not to wear clothes. You can't come out without salt in winter.
However, he only knew that there were not only coal, iron, copper and many rare metal minerals, but also many chemical raw material minerals such as oil, natural gas, natural alkali and salt in Nanyang, but he didn't know the specific location, so he had to send more people to explore.
Fortunately, food and salt are enough for more than four million people in Nanyang to eat by the end of the year.
After stabilizing the order of Nanyang, Qin Huan planned to attack Xiangyang and decided to attack Fancheng on the north bank first.
After all, there are too many short boards in Nanyang. We must capture Xiangyang again and connect the two houses together in order to be as stable as Mount Tai. However, the arrival of Qin Wen changed his idea of starting from Fancheng.
"Qin Wen, how are you, madam?"
In the study, after reading Xiao Xinru's letter, Qin Huan felt guilty. That deep yearning could not be suppressed.
"Back to the leader, madam, everything is well. I just miss the leader so much. Especially in the past month, people have lost a lot of weight, and miss..."
Qin Wen said, felt a letter from his arms and handed it up.
"Oh, this is what Wan'er wrote to me?" Qin Huan took the letter and looked at Xiao Xinru's letter. He smiled bitterly and had a headache at the same time.
Qin Huan then asked him about what had happened in Heishi town over the past year, and told him what they had done over the past year.
Finally, he patted him on the shoulder and said happily: "you three finally didn't disappoint me. In this way, you three were directly promoted to the commander-in-chief and established the sixth town of the Chinese army. Qin Shuang served as the commander-in-chief. You can be a deputy temporarily. In the future, you and Qin Feng have other arrangements. Tell your wife that I'll go to see her after I beat Gucheng. You three should continue to listen to her when I'm away, You know what? "
"Yes, chief!"
Qin Wen said excitedly. When he came to Nanyang, he saw his former brothers. They became leaders one by one, managing more than 10000 troops and horses. Don't mention envy. Now, the leader hasn't forgotten them.
"Well, you are so tall. By the way, did your wife find you a mother-in-law?"
Seeing that he was half a head taller than himself, Qin Huan asked with a smile.
"Back to the leader, not yet. My wife said that we are still young. We can't take a wife and concubine until we are eighteen."
Qin Wen blushed and said something embarrassed. It was obvious that he had been with Xiao Xinru for too long and was not used to the style of King Qin.
"Ha ha, you are still shy. It seems that your wife has taught you for more than a year!"
Qin Huan smiled at him.
I immediately understood that the three people were afraid that they were not taught by Xiao Xinru. Where was the style when they followed him?
So he patted him on the shoulder and said, "are you seventeen years old this year? It's not small. Even Qin Yi took three women. I'll take you to the Jiaofang Department tonight. First break the boy's skills and be a real man. After fighting Xiangyang, I'll pick some princesses and princesses as concubines! "
"All my subordinates listen to the leader."
Qin Wen had the temperament of a young scholar because he spent the most time with Xiao Xinru. Seeing that King Qin said so directly, his face became more red, but he secretly said that he was still happy with the leader.
If Xiao Xinru knew that the Qin Wen she worked hard to teach was beaten back to its original form by King Qin in only one night, she would have to be angry.
