Destiny Only Han

"Mom, I was wrong..."

In Chenglu Hall, Liu Le squatted on the ground and pinched his ears, with a mean smile on his face, and Doudou's eyes were full of flattery.

Beside her was Liu Ruyi who was also squatting on the ground with a worried expression on her face.

Lu Zhi was sitting on the couch, holding an orange cat in his arms, and Kazilan's big eyes were full of anger and distress.

Distressed, naturally feel sorry for the orange cat in my arms...

One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, unless one male and one female.

When the two male cats met on a narrow road, naturally the leopard cat that Liu Ying caught from outside had the upper hand.

As a result, Daju was not only scratched until his face was blooming, but he was also huddled in Lu Zhi's arms, with his ears close to the back of his head, still trembling all over...

Naturally, Lu Zhi's anger was aimed at the two cat thieves in front of him...

Liu Ruyi was still young, and Lu Zhi was not his own son, so Lu Zhi didn't want to argue with him too much, so he just notified Qi Ji to come and lead him.

It is certain that the debts of the children and the mother will be paid.

But Liu Le is different. She won't go to the house for three days, so today she must let her daughter, a big grievance, have a long memory!
Liu Ruyi approached Liu Le, and whispered, "Sister, why don't you confess your second brother and let him take the blame?"

Although Lu Pheasant was embarrassed to beat him, he had already informed his mother to come to fetch him. As we all know, after my mother shamed me because of myself, I couldn't escape after a beating...

After all, this can be regarded as a parent to some extent...

Liu Le glanced at him, and reprimanded him in a low voice: "Do you know what loyalty is? If you dare to confess Liu Ying, don't play with my toys in the future!"

Although Xiao Luoli is a daughter, she claims to be a heroic, courageous and not weak man. Now that things are not done well, she is naturally unwilling to confess to Liu Ying to share the blame.

This is the wind of the ranger!
The most important thing is that Liu Ying is her own younger brother. Since today's beating is impossible, let her, the older sister, fight everything for her younger brother!

So little loli raised her head, looked at Lu Zhi with dignity and said: "One person does things and one person does it! This matter has nothing to do with my brother, it's all my idea, if you want to hit me, hit me..."

Lu Zhi let out a chuckle: "One person does one thing and one person does it? You really deserve to be the son of the Liu family..."

She didn't intend to beat up little Lolita at first, after all, this was her only daughter, so in order to vent her anger on the cat, she just wanted to punish little Lolita to write big characters and become a female celebrity or something.

After all, for her grievous daughter, being beaten is nothing, and the female celebrity who writes is the deadliest...

But little Lolita took the initiative to take the blame for Liu Ruyi, which made her feel very relieved.

This is the virtue that the elder sister should have usefully!
Well, Lu Zhi didn't realize it. The younger brother Xiao Luoli mentioned was actually Liu Ying...

Liu Le's eyes lit up, his two short legs moved a few times on the ground, and he leaned over to Lu Zhi's side and said, "Mother! If you don't beat me up, I'll shake my hands and sing a song for you... ..."

The smile on Lu Zhi's face disappeared in an instant, and he gritted his molars and said, "Come here, take out my cane..."

Amidst the cries of the little loli who was killing a pig in the Chenglu Palace, Liu Ying slipped away slowly from the window sill with her waist down, and the huge stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.

He was almost betrayed by his own stupid and cute loli!
They can't even do the trivial thing of stealing a cat, they are really two useless snacks!I actually want to do it myself... Liu Ying complained in her heart, clutching her cuffs tightly with her hands, her steps became more and more faltering.

After all, at this moment, there is a big fat cat weighing more than ten catties hidden in his sleeve robe...

At the corner of the corridor bridge, Dou Yifang, who told Qi Ji to come to lead her, hid behind the railing, watching Liu Ying's back as she went away with her big round eyes.

Her son, even his sneaky movements are so chic and charming...

....................................

Shu County, Linqiong (qióng) County.

After King Huiwen of Qin destroyed Chu, in order to control the land of Shu and suppress the Shu people who tried to rebel, he built fortresses around Chengdu County, and built two cities in Linqiong County and Pi County and Chengdu County.

However, in the original Linqiong County, there was only a very simple wooden city wall, which was six miles away and five feet high. The current rammed earth city wall was built during the reign of Qin Shihuang.

After Qin destroyed the Six Kingdoms, in order to disintegrate the resistance forces of the Six Kingdoms, they relocated the population on a large scale. At this time, the richest family in Linqiong County was the Zhuo family who came from Zhao Kingdom.

There are iron mines in Linqiong, and the Zhuo family happens to be good at smelting. In addition, Shu County is located in a remote place and the officials are corrupt. Therefore, the Zhuo family got the right to operate the iron mines at only a small price.

It's just that today, this rich and powerful family who used to come like a cloud, but the door is closed, full of gloomy clouds.

The reason is very simple. After Ji Xin officially became the sheriff of Shu County, he began to sort out the old files accumulated over the years, so he discovered the problem of the Zhuo clan's embezzlement of state-owned assets through improper means.

Well, if Lin Zhi could discover this problem when he was alive, he wouldn't be thrown by Liu Ying to Shangjun to defend against the nomadic invasion...

In the main hall of the Zhuo family, the old grandpa Zhuo looked downcast, lowered his head, and sighed unceasingly.

People don't fight with officials, although there is no such thing as a county magistrate who destroys a family, or a magistrate who destroys a family, but since this matter has been put on the work schedule by the highest official of Shu County, the fate of the Zhuo family can be imagined .

A burly man with a square face slammed the ground: "He wants us to die, so let's kill him first! Father Zhong, why don't we call back the people in the mine and rush into the sheriff's mansion to kill that dog sheriff!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the room was silent, and the people sitting around him hurriedly moved two steps away, wishing to sever ties with him on the spot.

You must know that at this time, there is a way to sit together. Killing an official is tantamount to rebellion. No matter whether it is successful or not, all the people surnamed Zhuo will not survive!
According to the news they heard from other places, the worst result of their illegal behavior is nothing more than confiscation of family property, and the whole family will be fined as city dan and pounded. There is absolutely no fear of their lives.

It's just that good fortune is hard to give up, and the whole family will have to live another three to five years of hard life.

Well, all the men in their family can collect, distinguish ore, and follow-up smelting and processing, so even if they become ministers, they can easily get ahead through their skills.

So according to the current situation, it is far from going to a dead end.

Just after the Chinese-character face was dragged away with his mouth covered, when the Zhuo clan fell into silence, a fourteen-year-old boy ran into the gate.

After saluting, the little boy whispered, "Father, the shopkeeper of the Shu County branch of the Coal and Iron Trading Co., Ltd. is here..."

In the lobby, everyone was shocked.

Finally, is it still here?

The biggest competitor of Zhuojia's business is this coal and iron trading company that popped up suddenly in recent years. I don't know where they got the ironware. The quality is far better than Zhuojia's, and the price is much lower.

In order to maintain their own business, the Zhuo family had to lower prices aggressively, and take advantage of the advantages of the local area to barely maintain the family's good food and clothing...

But only the old Mrs. Zhuo, who is in charge of the overall situation, knows that their previous days of blooming flowers and brocades and burning oil with fire will only last for ten or eight years at most.

Perhaps, taking advantage of this moment to sell the family business, the whole family went to the countryside to farm, and occasionally made a few farm tools for the neighbors, which was the best choice.

However, I am so unwilling!
The old lady Zhuo stood up tremblingly: "Wang Sun, take me to meet the guests..."

Well, with the hundreds of years of disputes in the Warring States Period, titles such as son and grandson have long since ceased to be the taboo of the privileged class.

For example, the little boy in front of him is named Zhuo and named Wangsun.

Under the leadership of Zhuo Wangsun, the Zhuo family filed out, walked into the front hall, and sat down according to their seniority.

In a few moments, Xia Houzao, who was the chief shopkeeper of the Shu County Branch of the Coal and Iron Trading Co., Ltd., walked in.

He is Xia Houying's eldest son, and now he is hanging out with Liu Ying, so he was thrown to Shu County to get his qualifications.

Xia Houzao and Mrs. Zhuo sat side by side, looked at the tea soup on the table, and smiled inexplicably.

He drank too much tea, but it was the first time he saw pepper added...

Old Mrs. Zhuo looked at Xiahou Zao on the opposite side, and was taken aback in his heart. He really didn't expect that the big shopkeeper in Shu County, who was in charge of such a large scale, was actually a young boy.

It's just that although Xia Houzao has a simple and honest face, Mrs. Zhuo doesn't dare to take it lightly.

The bad luck of their family may be caused by this guy!
Although he didn't know Xia Houzao's identity, he knew about the Coal and Iron Trading Company. The government and businessmen colluded to bully and dominate the market, and competed with the people, that is, wealthy families like them!
So he asked coldly: "I don't know what is the big shopkeeper's visit to the humble house today?"

Xia Houzao smiled foolishly: "Talk about a deal."

The old Mrs. Zhuo knew it well, but pretended to be ignorant and asked sideways, "What kind of business?"

Xia Houzao still maintained a smiling face: "Of course it's a deal to buy Zhuo's blacksmith shop."

He didn't mention the mines because when he came, Ji Xin had clearly stated that after two days to sort out the files completely, he would send troops to take over all the mines of the Zhuo clan.

Of course, the subsequent ownership is self-evident.

Xia Houzao looked at the disconcerted faces, and began to read: "You guys understand the situation now, the illegal occupation of state-owned resources, according to the latest law, is to confiscate all family property, even the entire family... "

"But at the moment when the great Han Empire is full of disputes... so the Zhuo family can buy shares in the coal and iron trading company, um, technology shares, so that I can suggest to the county guard that only pay fines and exempt the Zhuo family from hard labor..."

"Old Patriarch Zhuo, you don't want to see the descendants of the Zhuo clan being punished as Chengdan and Chong..."

After Xia Houzao finished speaking, he looked at the old Mrs. Zhuo with a piercing spirit.

The first thing he did when he arrived at the Shu County branch was to recruit hundreds of master-level blacksmiths and thousands of skilled apprentices from the Zhuo clan.

So, must succeed!

Mrs. Zhuo was silent for a moment. He already knew about the term of investing in shares, so this might be the best result.

"Well, from now on, the Zhuo family will be ordered by the big shopkeeper..."
