Chapter 331 something big happened
"yes!"
Manager Niu wiped his tears and started talking in detail.
"Since our salt shop was opened in Yangzhou City, the business has been very good. The daily sales of Bajia salt shops in Yangzhou have reached an astonishing 20,000 taels. Logically speaking, our business is so good that villains should be happy, but villains always feel uneasy, so they can't sleep well every night in those days.
That night, in the middle of the night, the little man was confused and heard someone talking outside, and their accent should be from Yangzhou. One person said that it would be enough to scare him, and there was no need to burn it all. Then another person said that he should not be afraid. After doing this, someone naturally sent us to Shandong. Even if they had great skills, they could not find us. Then the fire soon started to burn. The little man saw Erbao and the others struggling in the sea of fire, while the little man could only hide in the water tank, and they were burned to death!"
Speaking of this, Manager Niu burst into tears, crying with tears in his face.
Yang Feng didn't say anything, but his face turned particularly gloomy. After a long time, he said slowly: "It seems that Ben Bo still underestimated the greed of those people. For the sake of his own interests, they could kill and set fire without hesitation. The law of the Ming Dynasty has long disappeared in their hearts."
"Brother!" Manager Niu wiped his tears and said anxiously: "Although there is no evidence for the villain, the villain can be sure that the person who does this must be the salt merchants. This villain can guarantee it with his head!"
Song Ye, who had been standing behind Yang Feng, frowned: "Brother, although we can conclude that it was the salt merchants who were doing it, we can't do anything about them without evidence."
Yang Feng glanced at him with a squinted look and sneered, "Evidence... Didn't those salt merchants just think that as long as there is no evidence, we can't do anything about them even if we know they did it? Today, Uncle Ben will tell them one thing, some things do not require evidence."
After saying that, Yang Feng sternly said, "Shopkeeper Niu, I will assign you a hundred clerks later, and you will take them into the city. Your task is to mark all the houses of the eight salt merchants in Yangzhou City to Ben, and watch them, and report to Ben in time if there is any abnormality. Song Ye, you immediately send an order to go down and rest early today. The whole army will set out to the city tomorrow. Let's go and meet those guys who have eaten the courage of the leopard!"
"clear!"
Although Manager Niu still didn't understand what Yang Feng was going to do, he heard his boss meant to do something big. He was so excited that his whole body trembled a little. Soon he brought a hundred servants who had changed into casual clothes out of the military camp...
It was already late at night, and Yangzhou City, which had been noisy all day, entered a calm again.
Liuyuan Lane located in the south of Yangzhou City is a one-mile alley, but 30% of this alley belongs to the He family, which shows how wealthy the He family is. The He family courtyard covers an area of more than 300 acres, with dozens of houses in the courtyard, and there are all small bridges, flowing water, pavilions and towers. In this place, there are more than 200 straight families in the He family, plus the servants, there are thousands of people. In this courtyard, the old man of the He family is the god, and no one dares to disobey his words.
Although Mr. He's status in the He family can be said to be supreme, the place where he lives is just a small courtyard that looks very ordinary, an ordinary house and a small vegetable field. However, this house has an extraordinary status in the eyes of thousands of people in the He family. Although the He family has a large population, there will never be more than ten people qualified to enter this small courtyard.
Mr. He had a very regular schedule. He would go to bed and rest after every hour (9 pm), but today the lights in his room were still on. Mr. He sat by the window and looked out of the window in silence. The tea cup on the tea table next to him had already become cold. Next to him, his son, He Yousheng, the head of the contemporary He family, stood beside him with his hands down.
Looking at the bright moonlight outside the window, Mr. He sighed for a long time and turned his head and said, "Friends, are you a little impulsive to be a father this time? For something you don't know if you can get, he ordered the burning of Jiang Ningbo's shop in Yangzhou. You must know that Jiang Ningbo is famous for revenge. If he knew that this was done by our He family, can we bear his revenge?"
He Yousheng thought for a while and said, "Father, I think you did nothing wrong. Jiang Ningbo is favored by His Majesty, but our He family has been in the Jingying in Yangzhou for hundreds of years, especially for a while. Even if he doubts us, what can he do to me without evidence?"
At this time, Mr. He no longer had the calm expression in front of everyone today. He smiled bitterly when he heard this: "That's what he said, but I'm not at ease in my father's heart, and I always feel that something is going to happen. Friends, please prepare and send your mother, your two younger brothers and a group of cousins out of the city tomorrow, and go to Songzhou Prefecture to avoid it, and wait until Jiang Ningbo left Yangzhou before coming back."
"Father, is it that serious?" He Yousheng was very puzzled. It was the first time he saw his father so careful after so many years.
"Do as I said!" Old Master He's face darkened.
"Yes!" Seeing his father getting angry, He Yousheng had no choice but to agree.
"Okay, go back and rest!" Mr. He waved his hand.
"Son, let's go down first. It's getting late, so you can rest as long as you're old!"
After He Yousheng left, Mr. He was still sitting in a chair blankly and staring out the window silently. After a long time, he murmured: "Man is dead for money and birds die for food. For the sake of my He family's prosperity for a hundred years, I just burn your shop and kill your friend? If you want to find the few people who burned your shop that night, you can only look for it in the underworld! As long as there is no evidence, even if you are Jiang Ning Bo, what can you do to me? Others say that you Jiang Ning Bo is so powerful, I will let you know, how can you, a vulgar martial artist, be my opponent in the Jiangnan realm!" In the end, Mr. He's face was full of ferociousness.
As the night passed, the sky began to brighten. The city gate official Lao Sun yawned and stretched his waist while walking up the city wall. When he looked out at the outside of the city, his hands that had originally stretched out froze and froze in the air. Under the city, a group of soldiers covered in their bodies stood quietly under the city. The leader was either someone else or the Jiang Ningbo.
"here we go again!"
Lao Sun covered his eyes in pain. Uncle Jiang Ning scared himself twice after only a few days. If this continues, he may have to complain about illness in advance and go home.
However, Lao Sun has been a city gate official for so many years, and his eyes are not for nothing. This time, before Yang Feng could speak, he quickly ordered the city gate to be opened. Seeing teams of murderous soldiers entering the city again, Lao Sun immediately felt that something might happen today.
