Chapter 014 System Level 1 Mall Open
"That's what you said!"
Liu Mingyu pulled out his knife with a loud sound and slashed Master Li's neck!
Mr. Li never dreamed that he would chop at will. His body became stiff due to excessive panic, and his neck felt cold. It was obvious that his head had fallen off. His vision went dark and he lost consciousness.
Liu Ming was shocked when he saw this dead old man foaming at the mouth, looking pale, and breathless. He squatted down and tried to breathe. Fortunately, he was still alive, but he just fainted from the shock.
"I thought the old bastard really wanted his money over his life!"
Liu Mingyu raised the knife in his hand: "Retreat!"
The next thing is simple, climb over the wall, beat the person, and then sweep away the cash, leaving only a handsome figure behind each family.
That night, the city of Damingfu was in chaos. From time to time, the cries of children, the screams of young servants, and the cries of women screaming could be heard.
All kinds of sounds come and go, creating a mess.
Liu Mingyu took thirty young men and worked hard all night. Starting from the Wuliuhuang Family Courtyard, he robbed the five major grain merchants in the city and more than a dozen prominent gentry.
In the darkest hour before dawn, Liu Mingyu and others transported all the stolen property into the backyard of the prefect's Yamen. As for the dozen or so stolen carriages, they took advantage of the darkness and left the city overnight.
After a night of hard work, Liu Mingyu also gained a lot, grabbing more than 114,000 taels of cash, more than 200 copper coins, more than 3,000 taels of gold, and more than 1,000 pieces of cloth.
Along the way, he loaded more than a hundred stones of grain he had snatched into a carriage and transported the grain to Jiagou.
At dawn, Liu Mingyu and the young men returned to Jiagou Farm. At this time, Lu Xiangsheng asked hurriedly: "How is it?"
"It's done!"
Liu Mingyu drank a bowl of tea and then took out a list, which recorded in detail how much money and cloth they had robbed from each household.
Liu Mingyu continued: "Master Lu, the money has been sent to the backyard of the prefect's Yamen and handed over to Master Yang Shi'en, Zhang Gu."
Lu Xiangsheng looked at this list and was very satisfied.
Of course, he took advantage of the more than 100 shi of grain that Liu Mingyu obtained from sheep, and the more than 500 taels of silver that Liu Mingyu openly and honestly withheld, among which he distributed 10 taels of silver to each of the young men, plus two slings of copper coins, each
Qingzhuang also received two pieces of cloth.
In fact, Liu Mingyu was not without benefits. He put the three silver winters from Huang's villa, equivalent to nearly 40,000 taels of silver, in his own space.
No one knows these things.
When it got daylight, the news of Daming Mansion being robbed spread throughout the city.
Lu Xiangsheng dragged his "sick body" and officially went to court in the afternoon.
When he saw the victims, Lu Xiangsheng almost couldn't help laughing.
Huang Tianci, the steward of Huang's Villa, suffered the worst. He was very arrogant and threatened Liu Mingyu and others, so he was given special care. Although there were no fatal injuries, his head turned into a pig's and he could not open his eyes.
Mr. Li was not seriously injured, but his nose was sloppy due to being frozen for half the night.
Mr. Liu, one of the largest gentry in Daming Prefecture, was a scholar. When he met Liu Mingyu, he was very domineering and could not recognize the reality. He was rewarded with a meal of sesame cakes.
It can be said that almost all the victims were injured, and the most serious one was Hu Laokou. He couldn't recognize the reality, gave up his life rather than his wealth, and was taught the hardest lesson.
"Master Lu, you have to make the decision for the students!"
Mr. Liu burst into tears: "That group of strong men is so arrogant. They broke into the students' homes with open fire and sticks, and robbed the students of the money they had accumulated for half their lives. It is simply unreasonable!"
"Master Lu, all my savings have been robbed by those strong men. If you don't help me get them back, my whole family will starve to death!"
"Master Lu, you have to make decisions for the common people. Our Huang family was robbed of three silver winter melons..."
Tears streamed down my face, and I cried miserably. I cried when I heard it, and I felt sad when I heard it.
Lu Xiangsheng was slightly stunned. The guard next to him was one of the thirty people last night. It could be said that Liu Mingyu's every move was under his nose.
"What's going on with the silver winter melon?"
Yang Kai whispered: "It is true, it was too heavy, we didn't take it away..."
Lu Xiangsheng coughed and said, "Don't be so busy crying, first explain what happened to me clearly!"
All the victims recounted what had happened. In their descriptions, these robbers were heinous criminals.
Lu Xiangsheng asked his master to record it carefully.
Then, Lu Xiangsheng asked: "Do you know the origin of this group of strong men?"
"They all cover their faces with black scarves, and we have never seen their true faces. However, they are all very skilled, and they are obviously not ordinary people. If you follow the clues, it should not be difficult to catch them all."
But Mr. Li said: "I vaguely heard them saying that it was Zhou Da, the master of Gushan Phoenix Village!"
At this time, Mr. Li could hate Master Zhou so much that he always treated him with filial piety, but in the end, this guy was so damaged that he emptied his family fortune.
"Yes, what we heard is that they are Phoenix Village!"
Lu Xiangsheng frowned: "This Phoenix Village is getting more and more arrogant. I am dissatisfied with you. In fact, you are not the only ones suffering. In the past two days, thirteen farms outside the city have been robbed. I have figured out the whole story.
, I will order the arrest of the robbers, and you can go back in peace and wait for good news from me."
Under the banner of encircling and suppressing Fenghuang Village in Gushan, Lu Xiangsheng ordered the recruitment of young men, forged weapons, and prepared to encircle and suppress Fenghuang Village. As long as the young men who participated in the recruitment were recruited, each of them would be given five taels of silver.
Because the people were so miserable and had little money as the New Year approached, there were so many followers.
In just three days, Lu Xiangsheng recruited tens of thousands of people.
Liu Mingyu watched Lu Xiangsheng recruit tens of thousands of people and knew that his opportunity had come.
So, he bought a thousand kilograms of white sugar in Damingfu City, which cost twenty-five taels of silver. He also bought more than 400 large carp weighing five kilograms, which cost him forty taels of silver. There were twenty-six sheep, which cost him
One hundred and twenty taels of silver, twenty-six live pigs, costing one hundred and sixty taels of silver.
A total of three hundred and forty-five taels of silver were spent to reward the troops at the temporary military camp.
In this era, there was little oil and water, and even the landowners could not eat meat every day. Therefore, when these supplies were transported to the military camp, all the rebel soldiers shouted: "Young Master Liu is such a good man!"
Liu Mingyu's reputation value increased linearly.
Ding: Congratulations on the host's reputation exceeding 10,000, and the system's first-level mall has been opened.
Host name: Liu Mingyu.
Age: Seventeen years old.
