Chapter 719 What are you doing so well?

Compared to Xiaodongmen Hui merchants, the overall Hui merchants were quite tactful. They knew that Eunuch Wei could not mess with them, but the Xiaguan Xi merchants were in chaos.

This is probably related to the fact that Hui merchants are engaged in literature and Western merchants are engaged in martial arts.

A person's personality can influence a group. Most Hui merchants come from a land of fish and rice and elegant place. Therefore, when they encounter a "strong unit" who suddenly comes to their door, they find that they have no way to solve the problem except for complaining. Hui merchants' choice is to settle the matter first and then make a decision.

This is not the case with Western Shang Dynasty. If there is no relative or reason, why should they ask them to borrow money?

Playing hard with the man?

OK, I will accompany you to the end!

Western merchants who do not steam buns and are too angry to choose to stop the trouble.

This may be related to the fact that the Western Shang Dynasty is a native of the northwestern country, and it is still very strong at heart. In addition, they also have the strength to fight against the minions of Eunuch Wei. In Yangzhou, even the surrounding areas and even in Nandu, the salt merchants raised the most gangsters.

People in the world say that Yangzhou has two tyrants, one is salt merchant and the other is Caokou.

The two actually overlap in some aspects, because salt merchants also need the canal to transport salt.

In the previous life of Eunuch Wei, the Yan Gang and Caokou were later integrated into a group and eventually evolved into the Qinghong Gang in Shanghai, which was also a big hit in the history of the Republic of China.

We are rich, have some people, and have power, but we don’t like Hui merchants who like to solve problems in litigation or tolerate them before taking revenge. They will never solve problems when they encounter problems, and they will habitually choose to use evil to evil.

This way, things will be a big deal.

Zheng Duo was not good at his troops. The first Guanyuan Liang family refused to borrow money, and organized hundreds of servants, salt goods shops and shops, hundreds of coolies and officers and soldiers brought by Zheng Duo to confront each other.

Under the influence of the Liang family, the Xishang merchants in Xiaguan quickly took action and organized a team of thousands of people to block the import and export of the Xiaguan market, and even blocked the Salt Transportation Office.

The noise was so loud that the people from the Yanyun Department were so scared that they hid in the yamen and did not dare to come out.

The minions of the Chaoguan (Canal Tax Customs) not far away thought that the salt merchants were going to rebel, but they flocked to the ground without waiting for the situation to be discovered. As a result, the cargo ships that had been paid for taxes in the afternoon were cheaper.

The boat owners are not in a hurry to leave after passing the tax customs, and call him to come ashore to watch the fun.

The Yangzhou Prefecture Office had already figured out what was going on. The prefect Yu Zhengxue rushed to Zuiyuan Tower as soon as possible and wanted to ask the admiral maritime eunuch Wei to restrain his subordinates. However, Eunuch Wei was infected with cold disease and was bedridden.

He stomped his feet in the sedan chair with anger, but Eunuch Wei was gone, so he couldn't rush in.

The hundreds of gun-carried guards guarding Zuiyuan Tower looked at their posture, which was not comparable to those of the servants who were raised by the prefect who went to the countryside to collect grain.

There is no reason to post a message to mobilize troops. Moreover, the garrison in Yangzhou is Gaoyou Guard, but does Gaoyou Guard dare to come to put out the fire?

Others don’t know how many eunuchs Gaoyouwei asked to exploit him, and how cowards the commander was, can Yufu Zun know?

In desperation, I thought of the middle-class envoy who was enjoying the scenery of West Lake.

So he quickly asked the sedan chairman to carry him to the Shrimp West Lake. When he arrived, he saw a pleasure boat in the lake. Two Jinyiwei were standing there at the bow of the boat. The fat man standing between them pointed his finger at an arch bridge and said something, looking like a central envoy from Beijing.

As long as this Zhongtuan came forward to stop him, I think the eunuch Wei would not be disobedient. In this way, the Xiaguan side could calm down.

Prefect Yu immediately asked someone to call out the pleasure boat on the shore, but the pleasure boat ignored it and drove away on his own.

Yu Zhengxue was anxious and asked someone to take a boat to chase him. After catching up, he did not wait for him to report his name. A Jinyiwei came to the back of the boat on the pleasure boat and said loudly: "The prince will visit the lake, and there will be no guests today. Please come back by Lord Yu!"

………….

Zheng Duo did not expect that the Western Shang Dynasty in Xiaguan would be so united and could mobilize so many people. He was stunned for a moment and quickly sent someone back to Zuiyuan Tower to report.

As a result, the person who went to report the news said that Eunuch Wei was asleep, and the person who guarded the door refused to let him in.

Zheng Duo was stunned for a moment, frowned and thought about it, and made up his mind, and was furious and ordered the gun to be fired.

The gun was fired towards the sky, and the situation changed when the gun sounded.

The Western merchants are powerful, but no one ever thought that the other party would really dare to fire guns. They organized a lot of people, but who dared to take weapons, they were all carrying poles, sticks, etc.

This is also a way out. If you really want to take a sword and come out, if something happens, it will be as simple as not borrowing money.

Liang, Zhang, Guo, and Shen discussed with great influence, and believed that they could not fight with the officers and soldiers. The big guy first withdrew the people and did not give the eunuch Wei a quarrel. Then everyone would bite them to death and would not lend them.

In short, we will never give Eunuch Wei a label of rebellion.

If the Eunuch Wei had not disturbed him at that time and forced him to do so, then the "civilian change" would have happened to him, Eunuch Wei, and it had nothing to do with everyone.

Unfortunately, the Western merchants only became kings and dominant in Jiangbei and did not care much about Jiangnan. If they knew that the eunuch Wei started his business through "civil rebellion", they would never have negotiated like this.

The Western Shang retreated the people, but Zheng Duo did not withdraw people. He ordered the horse team to surround the entrance and exit of Xiaguan. The two infantry and father-in-law rushed in with one of them.

In order to shock the Western Shang Dynasty, Zheng Duo ordered the two infantry troops to fire guns into the sky from time to time in the Xiaguan area, and the "thunderbolt pull" was very scary.

He was also angry, so Zheng Duo ordered privately, but he dressed better, and he was caught by anyone who looked like a rich man.

This is to exceed the levy of my father-in-law.

After this command, Xiaguan, which was originally peaceful, was no longer as peaceful as before. There were vicious eunuch Wei everywhere, and the chaotic minions were rumbling. From time to time, there were screams of women and children, and the sound of "plop, plop" kicking the door, and the sound of pots and pans falling down were even more ups and downs.

Anyone on the street, whether they are doing business or passing by, is surrounded by rich businessmen, and they are pulled to the corner of the wall to check one by one.

A businessman and his entourage came out of a tea shop. Seeing the messy scene on the street, they couldn't help but be stunned. The merchant asked the entourage in a flash: "What's going on? We've been in for a while, why is it like this outside?"

The entourage didn't know what happened. When he saw the officials arresting people everywhere, his legs were trembling: "Master, let's go back to the house to avoid it. Don't be caught by them as thieves."

After hearing the follower's words, the merchant couldn't help but nodded: "Okay, okay!" After saying that, he turned his head back: "Old Chen, there is still some discussion on the price just now..."

Just as I was about to go back, an officer led several soldiers to come towards them: "Stop!"

The master and servant were startled and looked back at the officer who was walking towards him. The entourage looked stunned and looked around, looking around, as if he thought he was calling someone else.

The officer pointed at the two of them: "What are you looking at? Come here!"

When the follower heard this, his neck shrank, he looked at his master with a questioning look on his face.

The merchant didn't know what happened, but the other party asked him to go there. He was an official and a civilian, so he had to go there. He quickly went up to write a compilation and said with a smile: "Mr. Jun, I don't know what to do with Xiaomin?"

The officer asked, "What are you doing?"

The merchant replied honestly: "We are merchants selling goods, so we come to the tea shop to discuss some business."

"merchant?"

The officer looked up and down the master and servant: "Since we are from the merchants, why do we hide when we see us?"

Seeing that he was misunderstood, the merchant hurriedly explained: "June, you misunderstood. The price was not negotiated just now. The little one just wanted to go in and discuss it again, not intentionally trying to avoid the June."

When the officer heard what he said, he sneered: "Is that right?"

“Yes, yes…”

Seeing that the officer's face was not good, the merchant was shocked and he couldn't stay here for a long time, so he hurriedly said:

"This military master, Xiaomin still has something to do, so he won't delay the military masters' work." After saying that, he shouted to the servant, "What are you still doing? Why don't you give way to the military masters!"

The servant quickly let out when he heard this, but the officer laughed and raised his foot to block the two of them: "No need, it's you two!"

As soon as he winked, several subordinates immediately stepped forward to surround the master and servant and pushed them towards the wall.

The merchant was shocked: "Mr. Jun, what's the matter? What's the matter?"

The officer squinted his eyes and smiled slightly: "It's okay."
