Chapter 27 Linzhou Rich Family (1)

"Nested Rebellion?" Ban Xiyu asked in surprise, "Is this really true?"

If this is true, it shows that the rich family is also unstable.With such a huge family, the internal struggle will only become more intense.Maybe they just need to add a little more fire to bring this behemoth to pieces.

Wen Jisheng said: "The news I personally inquired about, can it be true? To tell you the truth, it was Fu Lin's own son, Fu Yan, who asked me to take action to get rid of the Lu family."

Ban Xiyu immediately became curious: "Oh? In other words, father and son turned against each other?"

Wen Jisheng nodded, and said: "That's right. Speaking of which, Fulin was too 'lusty' to provoke it. Didn't I say earlier that he often ordered people to collect young women and send them to his house? Among those women , there is Fu Yan's sweetheart."

Ban Xiyu: "Fulin harms good women everywhere, and even harms his daughter-in-law?"

Wen Jisheng nodded, and said: "That's right. At that time, the rich man and the girl were about to discuss marriage, but as soon as they agreed with the girl's parents, the girl was taken away .”

"Young Master Fu was looking for someone everywhere, but unexpectedly, one morning, he saw his sweetheart being carried out of his father's room. It is said that the woman was covered in blood at that time, and she died with regret."

Speaking of this, Wen Jisheng shook his head regretfully: "That girl is also pitiful, she passed away at such a young age."

"Because of this incident, Mr. Fu and Fu Lin turned against each other. That's why I asked me to take action to get rid of the Lu family who was acting as a minion, and weaken the forces attached to Fu Lin."

"So that's how it is." Ban Xiyu lowered his head and murmured, "If we want to completely bring down the rich family, maybe we can start with the enmity between their husband, father and son..."

While talking, the two had arrived outside Linzhou City.

They have been on their way for the past two days, including the time spent in passing through the inn, they have worked hard and arrived at their destination three and a half days later.

It was not too late at this time, and it was not time for the curfew in Linzhou.

Ban Xiyu and Wen Jisheng led their horses into the city. They saw pedestrians coming and going on the street, and there was an endless stream of traffickers everywhere.

Some people are yelling and selling, while others are in a hurry.

Ban Xiyu carefully observed the surroundings, and calmly took a panoramic view of the scene in Linzhou City.

Soon, she noticed something strange.

Linzhou seems to be very lively, there are many people on the street, vendors are everywhere, and there are many people coming and going.

But these people's faces are full of dullness.

They have no expression, their eyes are blank, like walking dead.It's as if their bodies are still here, but their souls are gone.

Wen Jisheng said: "Go to the restaurant in front to eat something first, after a long journey, my stomach is full of empty plans."

"Ah."

The two settled the horses, and then sat down under the shed outside the restaurant.

Ban Xiyu glanced around, then lowered her voice and said, "Do you think something is wrong in Linzhou?"

"Huh?" Wen Jisheng asked in surprise: "What's not right?" He looked around in surprise, looked left and right, and said: "I think it's okay."

Ban Xiyu said: "Don't you think the people here are too dull? They look bitter, and their demeanor is full of exhaustion, like..." She couldn't find the right words to describe it for a while:
"It's like being drained of energy."

Wen Jisheng looked confused: "Is there?"

He looked carefully, but still couldn't see anything: "Maybe it's because I'm too tired from work, I don't know. It's probably because you think too much. With a mortal body, it is inevitable that you will be tired. The day is coming soon." After going down the mountain, I have been busy for a day, so it is normal for me to do this."

"Is it……"

Ban Xiyu frowned slightly, thinking that things were not that simple.

At this time, the waiter came over quickly with a plate in his hand: "Guest officer, the food you ordered has arrived, please use it slowly!" With a smile on the corner of his mouth, he said: "If you have any orders, just call me! "

"Thank you." Wen Jisheng handed him a few copper coins: "By the way, you fill me with a jug of wine again, this is the money for the wine."

Shop waiter: "Okay, wait a moment."

As soon as the clerk here took the jug and went over, the table and chairs on the other side were suddenly kicked down with a "crash"!

"Ding, come out to me quickly, and hand over this month's routine money to me quickly, otherwise I won't let you eat, so go around!"

The leading man had a very fierce face.He has a dark complexion, thick eyebrows and big eyes, his eyes are wide open, and he is tall and strong.

The man's arms were bare, with a blue goshawk tattoo on his head, and he looked very unfriendly.

He kicked over a series of benches and stepped on a stool leg: "Call out your boss, hurry up!"

The waiter was taken aback by this battle.

He lost his footing and almost fell.

The man strode forward, first kicked Xiao Er, then grabbed Xiao Er by the collar, and said viciously: "Why are you shaking! If you don't hand over this month's routine money, I will kill your leg!" Cut it off!"

The waiter in the shop turned pale with panic, and quickly shouted: "The shopkeeper, the shopkeeper! They are here!"

As soon as the voice fell, a middle-aged man ran out of the restaurant in a hurry.He looked at the mess on the ground in astonishment, his face full of heartache.

Afterwards, he begged the man with a bitter face: "Brother Zhang, I already gave you all the money I earned half a month ago. I'm doing a small business, and I really can't afford the money now." !"

Hearing this, Zhang Laosi sneered, and said, "Bah! Can't you get the money? You're lying! Boss Ding, you have such a big restaurant with so many customers coming in and out every day. Tell me you didn't make any money. How much? You look at me like a three-year-old fooling me!"

Boss Ding: "Brother Zhang, aren't you joking? No matter how brave I am, I wouldn't dare to lie to you. I really can't afford any more money.

"My child was sick two days ago, and all my savings have been spent. And you already asked for an example money half a month ago. I... really don't have any more!"

"Hmph, half a month ago was half a month ago. Could it be that you didn't eat today after eating yesterday?!" The man sneered, then reached out and patted Boss Ding's face, saying:

"Don't even think about it, you can still open a restaurant in Linzhou now, who is supporting you behind it."

Zhang Laosi said: "If I hadn't been covering my back, this dilapidated shop of yours would have collapsed in a few days! You still dare to bargain with me?"

He pushed Boss Ding viciously, Boss Ding staggered and fell down immediately.

With this fall, Boss Ding's face turned pale.

"I'll give you another three days, if you can't pay the money, you just wait to get out! Let's go!——" The man spat heavily, and then turned around with a few younger brothers behind him. The other side went.

The group of them came in a hurry and left in a hurry.When I came here, I got a lot of tables, chairs and benches, and when I left, I didn't forget to kick on the wooden frame supporting the shed.

The rickety shed on the side of the road nearly hit Ban Xiyu and Wen Jisheng who were sitting down to eat.

Wen Jisheng led Ban Xiyu to avoid the fallen wooden frame, the two sides looked at each other, and then stepped forward to help Boss Ding and the waiter.

Ban Xiyu asked: "Who is that person and why is he so arrogant that he dares to blatantly blackmail merchants in the city? Doesn't the government care?"
