Sword God Wine Ancestor

Chapter 365 The Cui Family's Sky Has Changed
The news that Su Bai and the others went to Zhou Zhizhou's mansion soon spread to Cui Wei's ears. Cui Wei couldn't help but feel a little flustered, but he quickly told himself that he had already greeted Mr. Zhou, and he should It won't be a big problem.

But still a little restless, got up and paced back and forth in the hall, it was already the twelfth lunar month, although there was no snow, it was still very cold outside, even if there was a stove earth dragon, the room would not be too hot, but Cui Wei at this time But a dense layer of sweat oozed from his forehead.

Finally, he let out a long breath and shouted out: "Come here! Bring the big steward."

The servants quickly found Li Wenyou, and Li Wenyou respectfully said, "What orders does the master have?"

Cui Wei said in a deep voice: "Wenyou, I'm still a little uneasy. You've been paying more attention to the business outside these two days. I'm worried that something will happen."

Li Wenyou was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "I know, master, don't worry, I'm watching all the business outside."

Cui Wei hummed and said: "Then I don't worry, you should move around more these two days, by the way, bring a few more people around, so as to avoid any accidents."

Li Wenyou said with a chuckle: "In this Jinyang City, is there still a villain who will act fiercely in the street?"

"It's not peaceful during this time, you just have to be careful." Cui Wei didn't say much, and waved his hand to let Li Wenyou go down.

There are many shrewd businessmen in Jinyang, and the shops on this street are naturally indispensable. There are oil sellers, cloth sellers, clothing stores, grocery stores, and various shops dotted around. According to statistics, there are at least 200 shops in Jinyang. Many!And [-]% to [-]% of them belong to Wanfu Commercial Bank, and the vast majority of Wanfu Commercial Bank are under the name of Cui's family.

"Cui's Clothing Shop" is a century-old shop. Before the Cui family had a fortune, Cui Wei's ancestors lived in this small shop.

Later, as the Cui family prospered, this ancestor's business naturally cannot be lost, and it needs to be carried forward!Therefore, the current "Cui's Garment Shop" is already the largest garment shop in Jinyang. There are silks and satins, linen and canvas, all kinds of materials, and various styles of clothes in the store. It is simply dazzling!
In this shop with four floors, there are no less than [-] guests coming and going every day!Some girls and daughter-in-laws from wealthy families in Jinyang City will come to the store every three days to have a look even if they don't buy them.Of course, if you are going to visit relatives or friends, or to be a guest of a wealthy family, and you need to buy new clothes, no matter men, women or children, this "Cui's Tailored Clothing Shop" is the first choice!
Although it is a bit exaggerated to say that it is a lot of money every day, the reputation of "Cui's Tailored Clothing Shop" is indeed great, so it is absolutely no problem to make half a fortune every day!And if you meet a young lady from a rich family who brings special fabrics to be processed, invites a well-known tailor, and finally gets a satisfactory dress, at this time, a reward is naturally indispensable. I can describe it.

It is such a shop, which has almost become a scenic spot in Jinyang City. Today, a group of officers and soldiers suddenly broke in, which shocked the guests who were choosing their favorite clothes in the shop. Some timid ones even ran away. Also ran away.

Cui Wanxing, the shopkeeper of "Cui's Tailored Clothing Shop", is an offshoot of the Cui family. , can be regarded as a good mix, even in the master's house, he can still talk.

I saw many officers and soldiers breaking into the shop today, but I didn't panic. I'm from the Cui family, so what's the panic like?
Shopkeeper Cui came down from upstairs, and he also recognized the leader of the officers and soldiers. He was the eldest son of Lord Zhizhou, named Zhou Ziheng, who was an eighth-rank official in the yamen. He is the son of Zhizhou, and no one dares to underestimate him.

Shopkeeper Cui was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly greeted him with a smile, and saluted, "Isn't this Mr. Zhou! What brought you here? What are you bringing these officials with you for?"

Zhou Ziheng's expression was serious, he ignored Cui's smiling face at all, and said with a cold snort, "What are you doing? Check the accounts! Check the taxes!"

Shopkeeper Cui's face changed, seeing that the other party was not joking, he panicked immediately, as a shopkeeper, how could he not know that his store's account could not stand the investigation.

"Cui's Clothing Shop" has a great reputation, earns a lot of money, and naturally needs to pay taxes, which is a lot of money!How could the Cui family want to spit it out?Therefore, the relevant officials were given a lot of benefits before, and the tax was fooled, and the things on the account were all fake!It's just that you are always hello and me on weekdays. Where did you think about tax inspections?

What the shopkeeper Cui didn't understand was that since the master's family had already taken care of everything, there was no way the biggest Zhizhou lord in Jinzhou hadn't taken care of it!Then why did the son of the Zhou family suddenly come to check the tax today?

"Why are you still standing there in a daze! Hurry up and take out the account book!" Seeing that the shopkeeper Cui remained motionless, Mr. Zhou snarled and slapped the counter loudly.

Shopkeeper Cui was taken aback. Although he didn't know what was going on, the hero didn't suffer the immediate loss. He quickly responded and handed the account book to Mr. Zhou. whats the matter.

Mr. Zhou took the account book in his hand, flipped it casually, then waved his hand and said, "Hmph! This account book is so fraudulent that even a three-year-old child can't be fooled! How dare you show it to me? Tax evasion and tax evasion!" To be like this is simply out of control! Come, someone, take me back! After finding out the matter, wait and see what happens!"

Officers and soldiers with chains had been waiting for a long time, and when they heard the order from Mr. Zhou, they immediately rushed forward, locked the shopkeeper Cui firmly, pushed and walked outside.

Shopkeeper Cui came to his senses at this moment, knowing that it was a real joke, and shouted in panic: "I am wronged! The villain is wronged! Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou! You can't arrest me! I am from the Cui family! I am People from the Cui family!"

It's a pity that Mr. Zhou was unmoved, and even a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, a member of the Cui family?Those who were arrested were members of your Cui family!Of course, the group of officers and soldiers would not listen to Shopkeeper Cui, they locked the other party and went to the Yamen.

As soon as he came out of the gate, shopkeeper Cui glanced at Li Wenyou and Butler Li on the side of the road, and his face suddenly showed surprise, and he shouted: "Butler Li, butler Li, help me! Don't let them take me away! "

It's a pity that Steward Li didn't seem to see him. To be precise, he did see him, but it seemed that he was just looking at a stranger, and his expression didn't change at all.

Shopkeeper Cui was desperate, crying like crazy, and was dragged by officers and soldiers to disappear at the end of the street.

On the other side, Mr. Zhou kicked out all the people in the shop, took two seals, and directly sealed the "Cui's Tailored Clothing Shop", and waved his big hand: "Go! Next one!"

Li Wenyou and Li Butler have been watching silently by the side, not intending to stop him at all. After seeing Mr. Zhou leaving, he left slowly.

People on the street pointed, "Cui's Clothes Store" of course they know, most of the people have bought clothes here, what happened today, it was sealed up by the government!
Someone said: "Is this the Cui family's ready-to-wear shop? How can it be sealed? Could it be a mistake?"

"Wrong? You don't know who the leading official is? That's Zhou Zhizhou's eldest son! Since the 'Cui's Tailored Clothing Shop' has been sealed up, that's Zhou Zhizhou's intention! Do you think Zhou Zhizhou will make a mistake? "

When the onlookers heard this, they stopped talking immediately, and the people with flexible minds were even more thinking, could it be that the Cui family offended Zhou Zhizhou and even sealed up this cornucopia of ready-made clothing shops? Open, I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money, right?However, this money must be spent, after all, this tailor shop is making money every day!

These people don’t know yet, it’s not just that the “Cui’s ready-to-wear shop” was closed. When Mr. Zhou took action, in other places, several well-known shops belonging to the Cui family were closed at about the same time. Officers and soldiers rushed in, and after looking at the account books, they arrested these shopkeepers one after another and sealed off the shop!

And this is obviously just the beginning. After Mr. Zhou and others sealed up one family, they continued to move towards another one. During this day, the Cui family had more than a dozen shops that were sealed off!Even if the Cui family has a big business and these shops are closed, it will be a traumatic thing.

After Li Wenyou and Li Butler saw that "Cui's Tailored Clothing Shop" was closed, he didn't go to other places, but went directly to Cui's house, and soon saw Cui Wei.

Butler Li said in a deep voice: "Master, this old slave just came back from the outside and saw that the tailor shop at home was sealed off by Mr. Zhou."

Cui Wei's heart skipped a beat, and the teacup in his hand fell to the ground with a clang, and he asked with some reluctance: "Clothes store? Which one is it?"

Butler Li replied, "It's the largest clothing store in the house."

Cui Wei panicked all of a sudden, paced back and forth, shouting again and again: "How could it be blocked? How could it be blocked!"

Butler Li didn't seem to see that his master was panicking, and continued to say in a deep voice: "This old slave thinks that not only the clothing store at home, but also other stores have been closed. When Mr. Zhou left, he said he wanted to Go to the next one."

Cui Wei froze in place for a moment, no matter how stupid he is now, he understands that Master Zhou did something to his Cui family, but why did Master Zhou do it?It shouldn't be!

Cui Wei staggered and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, he sat on the chair with a look of despair. Butler Li waited silently beside him without saying a word.

After a while, Cui Wei suddenly came back to his senses, rushed directly to the door, and shouted: "No! I want to ask Mr. Zhou why you want to attack my Cui family! Come on! Get me ready!" Carriage, I'm going to Zhou Mansion!"
