In a private room in the guest building, almost all the gentry of Yunzhou City gathered here.
All the industries of these people combined account for almost two-thirds of Yunzhou City.
At this time, they were extremely happy, and they all smiled while pushing cups and changing cups.
There were endless compliments and congratulations in the box.
Sitting at the top was Mr. Chen. He listened to the compliments of the wealthy gentry, stroking his long beard with a proud expression.
"What the hell, you guys are so ridiculous. I just came up with an idea to give our ignorant county governor a warning."
"Hahaha! The old man is right! We said the wrong thing, and I will punish myself with a drink!" A wealthy gentleman agreed, raising his head and drinking down the glass of wine.
The others also raised their glasses to punish themselves.
The entire banquet was headed by Mr. Chen.
Although the shopkeeper of the Lian family had a smile on his face, it was a bit forced. He always had a bad feeling in his heart.
He took a long breath, his smile became wider, and he drank a cup of punishment with everyone else.
The Chen family is the largest tycoon in Yunzhou City. The game has not yet reached a clear outcome. The Lian family cannot take sides at will, nor can they offend anyone at will.
"Then Zhao Jin is just a boy with no hair, yet he dares to attack us."
Someone started chatting, and immediately everyone continued to condemn and laugh at Zhao Jin.
"He really thinks that since he is the governor of Yunzhou County, we all have to obey him? How ridiculous."
"Our Lord County Sheriff is still too naive, and he doesn't even look at any of the previous Yunzhou County Sheriffs who were pinched by us."
"I don't know that you are so dissatisfied with me."
As soon as Zhao Jin arrived, he heard the complaints and ridicules of these wealthy gentry, and immediately laughed angrily.
The laughter in the room suddenly stopped, and everyone stared blankly at the door of the box.
Zhao Jin was standing with his hands behind his back, followed by Wei Liang, followed by nearly thirty government guards.
Every time Zhao Jin uttered a word, he took a step forward and pressed forward step by step.
All the gentry suddenly saw Zhao Jin and were stunned.
The first person to come to his senses was Mr. Chen. He had a stern look on his face and asked, "Why are you here, Lord Sheriff?"
"Oh, I didn't come, but I didn't know that your grievances were so great." Zhao Jin stopped one foot away from the gentry.
Mr. Chen pretended not to understand, and just said: "Sir, it's not against the law for us to gather in private, right?"
The tone was mocking and clearly provocative.
Zhao Jin smiled and looked at Mr. Chen with a bit of confusion in his eyes, "Mr. Chen, how did you get this temper?"
Without waiting for the other party to jump in, Zhao Jin added: "It's certainly not against the law to gather in private."
Zhao Jin glanced around the gentry present, raised his hand and stretched it back.
Wei Liang understood and took out two account books from his arms.
After taking it, Zhao Jin casually threw the account book onto their table, accurately avoiding the food on the table and landing it in the open space.
Mr. Chen picked up one of the books, opened it and took a look, his face changed drastically!
Seeing this, the wealthy gentleman next to him quickly picked up another book and glanced at it, with the same expression on his face.
"What happened?"
The other wealthy gentry were puzzled and moved over one after another, wanting to see what it was that Zhao Jin brought that made the two of them eclipse one after another.
At a glance.
It is no exaggeration to say that every one of them was stunned.
They were extremely familiar with this thing, "This is not...!"
A wealthy gentleman murmured to himself. Halfway through his words, he swallowed back the second half.
"It seems that everyone has recognized it." Zhao Jin put his hands behind his hands and calmly admired the changed expressions on everyone's faces.
Mr. Chen didn't even hold on to his crutches anymore. He tightened his grip on the account book in his hand, with a rather ferocious look on his face, "Mr. Zhao, what do you mean?"
Everyone looked at Zhao Jin with bated breath, breathing a little quickly.
"What do you mean?" Zhao Jin raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Isn't it obvious?"
"Of course this is what I do."
Zhao Jin paused deliberately, and seeing them swallowing their saliva nervously, he couldn't help but smile, "Of course we are here to arrest the criminals."
As soon as this statement came out, the gentry immediately became chaotic.
Yesterday, the wealthy gentleman who led people to the government office to cause trouble said hurriedly: "Sir! Sir! I will not pursue the government guard anymore. He picked up the hosta! It was not stolen! It was just a misunderstanding!"
He was trying to use this to get Zhao Jin to show some mercy to him.
"Did you hear that?" Zhao Jin turned his head and said to Wei Liang.
"The master has already said that this matter is just a misunderstanding. Let him go when we get back."
The wealthy gentleman breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Zhao Jin was willing to accept this love.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, Zhao Jin said with a smile: "In that case, all those who have committed crimes and have touched human lives will be taken away by me!"
At the end of the speech, Zhao Jin no longer had any smile on his face, and his tone was cold and sharp.
The government guards behind Zhao Jin immediately stepped forward and arrested all the people according to the list drawn up last night, including Mr. Chen.
"Zhao Jin! Do you have evidence?!"
Mr. Chen, who was being restrained by the soldiers, turned red with anger and scolded angrily: "I don't have my name in your account book! Is this how the magistrate is abusing punishment!"
"Ledger?"
Zhao Jin raised his eyes and said, "I have a lot of them. Every family has them. If you want to see them, go back to the government office and I can show them to you slowly."
As soon as these words came out, the wealthy gentleman who was still struggling seemed to have all his strength taken away from him.
It's over.
A quarter of the gentry present were taken away, and those who were left behind were even more terrified.
Zhao Jin did not drive out all the people. These people had a large number of shops in the city. If they were all killed, Yunzhou City would be turbulent and no one would be able to fill the gap left by them.
Therefore, Zhao Jin retained some wealthy gentry who had relatively minor crimes and did not harm the people excessively.
"I am not the one who wants to kill everyone." Zhao Jin still said in a cold voice, "I know exactly what you have done."
With a cold gaze, he glanced at each wealthy gentleman and said, "Since you have not gone too far in your words and deeds, I will spare you this time. If you want to do it next time..."
Before Zhao Jin could finish speaking, the shopkeeper of the Lian family hurriedly promised, "There will never be a next time! Please rest assured, sir."
Zhao Jin glanced at the other party and said quietly: "It's best this way."
"Wei Liang, let's go."
Wei Liang suppressed the excitement in his chest and followed Zhao Jin out.
"If you already have something in your hand that can kill the enemy in one fell swoop, there is no need to shrink back and make a prompt decision to catch them off guard and strike with thunder so that they are unable to fight back."
As Zhao Jin walked, he gave some tips to Wei Liang.
"Yes, sir, I understand."
The method he proposed last night, although feasible, was too procrastinating and gave them time to respond.
