Chapter 138: The Beginning of Chaos

Lord Qu didn't expect Du Jie to ask so straightforwardly, and he didn't even use the prepared words. Finally, he said with a little embarrassment: "Little Du Gong, when you came to Yongzhou, the Holy Father issued an edict. If there is anything that cannot be solved,

At this time, everything is based on Little Du Gong’s opinion.”

Du Jie did not expect that the prefect would actually say this. Qu Zhishui was only a fifth-grade prefect, and it was absolutely impossible to falsely pass on the imperial edict. In this way, the young emperor had really issued such an edict. The army in the northwest could not move, but

Leave this mess in Yongzhou to yourself. What exactly does the little emperor want to do?

"My opinion is the most important thing? So Lord Qu is here to hand over power?" Du Jie said somewhat playfully after hearing this

Qu Zhishui shook his head guiltily and said, "Mr. Wu An, taking charge of Yongzhou is an errand assigned to me by the imperial court after all. If you have any instructions now, just tell me and I will definitely comply with them."

Du Jie nodded: "I won't hand over the power, but if anything goes wrong, I will be responsible for it? Mr. Qu, you made a good calculation."

Qu Zhishui hurriedly stood up and saluted Du Jie and said: "Mr. Wu An, please calm down and keep your subordinates quiet. I will do whatever the superiors tell me."

Du Jie waved his hand and said to Qu Zhishui: "Since it is the emperor's order, then you and I will try our best to complete the errands. You can go and wait outside. The Li Mansion will be your temporary yamen. This matter will not be resolved for a day.

Just don’t go back yet.”

When Qu Zhishui saw that Du Jie really took the job, he was immediately overjoyed. He originally didn't want to come to the Li Mansion, but this was an opportunity. If he really did this job well, he might not have a career in the future.

More stable, secondly

He was afraid that if Du Jie really refused to accept this job, he would be in trouble. But now there were faint signs that Yongzhou City could not control it. He was sensitive enough to realize that this matter might not be simple, so he hurriedly

He hurriedly ran to Li Mansion.

When Qu Zhishui left the room, Du Jie showed a bitter face and said to Kong Miaozhi: "Lao Liu, do you have any good ideas?"

After Qu Zhishui came in, Kong Miaozhi didn't speak. He listened to the prefect's words and kept blinking. When Qu Zhishui left, Kong Miaozhi was still a little confused. When he saw Du Jie asking him, he said:

"The matter seems to be more serious than I expected. I didn't expect that the Li family has so much power in Yongzhou. This is not easy to handle. But it shouldn't be so serious. Is there someone behind it that is adding fuel to the flames?"

Several people said nothing, quietly waiting for Kong Miaozhi to think about something.

"First there was looting at the rice store, and soon it spread to cloth stores, restaurants, and even medicine shops, and finally it was all brought to the bank. But even if it really goes to the bank, it shouldn't be like this, unless it's..., something happened!"

Kong Miaozhi seemed to have thought of something and stood up suddenly.

Others hurriedly asked: "Lao Liu, have you figured out anything?"

Kong Miaozhi grabbed Du Jie and ran out. When he got to the door, he saw the yamen servant shouting: "Go and call your master, go to the Li family's bank now! Senior brother, please find someone to call Mu Yanbin over, and go to Li's house."

Let’s meet at our bank, now!”

Kong Miaozhi said so urgently that Chu Mu did not dare to be careless and agreed hastily. Qu Zhishui had just pushed the errand out and was about to take a leisurely sip of tea when he saw Kong Miaozhi pulling Du Jie out and running behind him.

Follow your own men.

Qu Zhishui wanted to say hello, but Kong Miaozhi and Du Jie didn't even look at him, and ran straight out. He looked at the two of them in a self-indulgent manner, shook his sleeves hard, and snorted coldly. See you.

His subordinates came up behind him, stopped him and asked, "How are you so flustered? What's going on?"

His subordinates pointed at Kong Miaozhi and Du Jie, who had already left in Qu Zhishui's sedan chair, and said, "Sir, Mr. Wu An and Kong Shaoxia asked you to go with them to the Li family's bank."

Qu Zhishui looked at the sedan chair leaving and slapped his subordinates hard: "Why did you just say it now!"

At this time, Yongzhou City was in chaos, and most of the pedestrians were in a hurry. Every shop was either packed with people, or had been smashed and robbed. After a long time, Kong Miaozhi and Du Jie finally arrived at the Li family bank.

The Li Family Bank is located in the center of Yongzhou, where merchants gather. Both buyers and sellers like to deposit their money in the bank. After all, the Li Family Bank has interoperability with the other three major merchants. With the banknotes from the Li Family Bank, you can

You can exchange money for it at any bank. This time, the Li family made money while lying down.

At first, the other three major merchants wanted to come to the northwest to get involved, but they were blocked by the Li family. In the end, the four merchants discussed and formed a set of businesses that were interconnected by four banks. The business of this bank was divided into four, and each of the four banks had one.

Although the Li family suffered a loss, their business went beyond the northwest and they could also go to the Central Plains to get involved.

At this time, the outside of the bank was crowded with people. People held up banknotes and surrounded the bank, asking the bank to exchange them for silver.

The clerk at the bank couldn't resist, and saw that some mobs began to gather others to rob.

When Kong Miaozhi saw it, he quickly said to Du Jie: "Old Qi, stop it quickly, the bank can't mess up."

Du Jie understood the idea and hid in the crowd. He originally wanted to use the method of "drawing thunder", but there were too many people here, and most of them were threatened. Du Jie thought to himself, it's enough to scare a few troublemakers.

Just pull it out.

At this time, he even thought that Sima Zhongcai, the ghost who urged people to do something in the past, had limited skills in the "Nan" technique and could not achieve such power. Thinking about it this way, every Kung Fu has its own unique use.

Du Jie transported his true energy to his Dantian, and then there was a huge thunder in the sky for no reason. Everyone was startled by the loud thunder. While everyone was distracted, Du Jie shuttled back and forth among the crowd, knocking several people out.

The person who was the leader of the trouble tapped the smile point.

After the thunder, the crowd was in chaos. Sounds of laughter could be heard from time to time. Kong Miaozhi and Du Jie didn't care and slowly squeezed into the bank from the crowd.

I didn't see the situation clearly until I got inside the bank. The shopkeeper in the inner hall was running around in a hurry. He glanced out the door from time to time. There was a stick of incense placed on the table. There were three young people sitting steadily beside him. One of them was

He glanced at the shopkeeper and said: "Three sticks of incense will be here soon. Shopkeeper, whether you want a sign or money, you can choose for yourself."

The shopkeeper bowed repeatedly and said: "Guys... please be patient, our young master's family is already on the way here. You are all our big customers. With such a big business, our young master's family will definitely not delay.

Wait a moment, wait a moment."

"We brothers are not unreasonable people, but the time we agreed to burn three sticks of incense is just the time for three sticks of incense. If you really can't come up with so much money, we won't make it difficult for you. Give us the plaque. Our brother

They will leave immediately."

The signboard is the foundation of a business. If he were to tear it down, the shopkeeper would have done his job. Therefore, even if a fight was about to break out outside, the shopkeeper would not dare to just leave these three people alone. Wouldn't he be there with him?

, seeing with the corner of his eye that only half of the incense was left, he sent another subordinate to see why the owner hadn't arrived yet.

Not long after his men went out, they came back. There was a commotion outside. The shopkeeper was overjoyed and asked hurriedly: "Is the boss here?"

The subordinate shook his head and whispered to the shopkeeper: "My boss is not here, but the prefect is here. It seems that he ran here, and it looks like the house is on fire. I don't know if something happened."

Not only did his subordinates not bring any news about the boss, but they also brought such bad news. The shopkeeper secretly shouted that it was bad luck and was just about to greet him. A Yamen servant had already opened a way, and then the prefect Qu Zhishui ran in like a storm.

The shopkeeper came forward with a smile on his face: "Greetings, Mr. Magistrate, why do you have time to come to the trumpet today?"

Qu Zhishui ignored him. He looked around the crowd. When he saw Du Jie and Kong Miao, he hurried over and said to them: "Mr. Wu An, Kong Shaoxia, you are so fast. Have you thought of something?"

.Start from here?”

When Kong Miaozhi saw Qu Zhishui coming, his mind turned around, and then he whispered a few words to Du Jie. Du Jie understood, walked out and said to Qu Zhishui: "Master Qu, someone wants to take advantage of the situation. Look at this."

…”

Qu Zhishui's mind was so clear. Before Du Jie finished speaking, he understood when he saw the three people sitting next to him. He gave Du Jie a look and then shouted: "Come here, kill the three people who are making trouble."

Take it back to me."

Before the three people understood what was going on, they were about to be captured, and they hurriedly shouted: "I have not committed any crime, why do you want to capture me!" Qu Zhishui sneered, not wanting to explain at all, and gave the left and right a look.

The yamen servant took the chain and walked up.

One of them saw that the prefect was no longer concerned about everything, and immediately shouted: "Sir, I am Master Wan's subordinate, how dare you take me without asking why!"

"Master Wan?" The prefect's heart moved, he stopped the servant and asked: "Which Master Wan?"

The man curled his lips and said, "Master Wan San Jin Wan!"

Wan Sanjin is the No. 1 God of Wealth in this dynasty. Not to mention that he is a small prefect, even his immediate boss would not dare to offend such a person easily. Why did Wan Sanjin's men come to the Li family's bank?

Only then did Qu Zhishui realize that things were not as simple as he thought.

Qu Zhishui looked at Du Jie. Du Jie knew that Qu Zhishui was timid. He did not let him continue to lock people up. He walked over and asked the man: "Are you Wan Sanjin's subordinate? What is your name?"

The man had a long face and thin eyebrows, and looked like a philistine. Seeing that Du Jie was so young, he asked with some contempt: "Who are you?"

Qu Zhishui shouted hurriedly: "Wangzhi, this is Duke Wu An. If Wu An asks you something, you should answer it well!"

Chang Lian was startled when he heard this. He looked at Du Jie carefully and said hurriedly: "The young man was ignorant and bumped into the adults. My name is Jin Chou Chou."

The man said his name was Jin Chou Chou. Du Jie was obviously stunned. He looked up and down several times before saying: "I heard that Wan Sanjin is called Wan Sanjin because he has three guys named Jin.
