Back to Datang with weapons

Chapter 501 Entering the City Tomorrow! (Please subscribe!)
Back at Wang's house, it was already late at night.

As before, all the wing rooms of the Wang family, except for Wang Yunshi's room, were still lit, and the others were already dark.

On the way, Wang Ba told Zhang Twelve that Sui Wuyuan was a villain who would take revenge, and that Zhang Twelve beat his son so badly today, so he would definitely not let him go so easily.

But Zhang Twelve didn't pay attention to Sui Wuyuan, he was just a guard, he said a few words to Wang Ba, and let him go back to his room to sleep first.

Going outside the wing room, looking at the window next door that was still lit, Zhang Twelve thought for a while, then raised his feet and walked over there. Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the door, the light in the room went out.

Zhang Twelve touched his nose, is his character so bad in Wang Yunshi's eyes?
Forget it, it's his anyway, so there's no rush.

Thinking of this, Zhang Twelve went back to the room.

Silent all night.

…………

The next morning, Zhang Twelve was still dreaming in bed when he was woken up by a knock on the door.

Rubbing his sleepy eyes, he put on his clothes and went out, opened the door and saw Wang Ba with red eyes but excited face standing outside.

Wang Ba was tossing and turning on the bed last night, thinking that the Jinling locals who had been taunting him for the past few months were mercilessly slapped in the face by them, and he felt so happy!

So although he didn't sleep for a long time, he didn't feel sleepy. When he got up early in the morning, Wang Chengen also noticed Wang Ba's abnormality. The glorious deeds of Yunling family".

I can't help but be a little speechless.

This young man is a bit shocked!

But thinking about how he beat Sui Wuyuan's son so badly, with Sui Wuyuan's style, he will definitely come to his house to take someone today!

It's a bit tricky, and we have to discuss the countermeasures carefully, so Wang Ba was sent to call Zhang Twelve.

Wang Ba succinctly told Zhang Twelve about this, but he didn't take it seriously, closed the door and followed Wang Ba towards the front hall, and happened to meet Wang Yunshi who was coming back from the front hall, and the two of them just looked at each other briefly. After handing over for a few seconds, they quickly separated, with their usual expressions, and passed by.

Wang Chengen paced back and forth in the front hall, saw Zhang Twelve coming in, and immediately greeted him: "Did Mr. Zhang sleep well last night?"

If you hadn't asked Wang Ba to call me - I would have slept well...

After complaining in his heart, Zhang Twelve said slowly, "Thanks to the magistrate, I slept well."

"I heard that Young Master Zhang beat the young master of Sui Shoujiang's family last night?"

"Ah? Who said it? Has anyone seen it? There is no basis for this statement. Don't the prefect Wang want to frame me!"

Zhang Twelve said "dissatisfied".

"........."

"........."

Wang Chengen and his son were a little speechless, especially Wang Ba, who saw Zhang Twelve beating someone with his own eyes yesterday, and had a new understanding of Zhang Twelve's thick skin. He didn't blush at all when he lied!
But Wang Chengen thought about it immediately, what he said was right, even if Sui Yuxuan was beaten, but there was no one to testify, even if he was the guard of Jinling, then he can't do anything about him, right?

A smile appeared on his face immediately, Zhang Twelve's words also told him the solution!

"Young Master Zhang is right! I wonder why Young Master Zhang would beat the son of Sui Shoujiang, hehe..."

The two smiled tacitly, and only Wang Ba stood there blankly, looking a little confused.

…………

The drop in grain prices in Zhaojialiangzhuang yesterday caused quite a commotion in Jinling City. Early this morning, the outside of Zhaojialiangzhuang's shop was already crowded.

Because the daily quota of Zhaojia Liangzhuang is only one hundred, first come, first served, many people were waiting outside the shop with small stools last night.

Before dawn, there was chatter outside the shop, and when the shop opened, a group of people swarmed in, and within a short while, a thousand catties of food was empty.

The people who bought the rice were naturally full of joy, and ran home crying, but such people were a minority after all, and most of them failed to buy the rice.

Standing in line for most of the night, but returning empty-handed, who can accept that?

I don't know who took the lead, and a group of people rushed into the shop regardless of the number of places. The shop assistants couldn't stop it. After a while, the shop was ransacked, and nearly a thousand catties were brought together in the morning. The food was gone in an instant, and the guys sat there, wanting to cry but not crying.

The Zhao family sent someone to the prefect to report the case early in the morning. Wang Chengen said that he would investigate thoroughly, but he didn't think so in his heart.

check?
How to check?
This was not done by one person, but by a group of people. As the saying goes, no one blames the crowd. Besides, who would be stupid enough to admit it?
When Zhang Twelve heard Wang Chengen finish speaking, he had a smile on his face.

Zhao Baiyu's practice of limiting the sale of one thousand catties of grain at a low price every day, he thought it was perfect, but it was not.

Either he gritted his teeth and didn't sell at all, or he sold all of them. Isn't this way of selling now arousing hatred?

It can be seen from the robbery of Zhao's shop today that Zhao's Liangzhuang has already aroused public outrage.

Zhang Twelve asked curiously: "Since the store was robbed, didn't the common people go to Zhaojia Liangzhuang to rob it?"

The shop is too small, so there is naturally not much food in stock. If the people of Jinling can rob the Zhaojialiangzhuang - it will be very exciting to think about it!
Wang Chengen said: "You are really right. Even if the Zhao's shop is emptied, there are still more wolves and less meat. The majority of the people who did not get the food, they finally went to the gate of the Zhao's Liangzhuang together. But how is it so easy to enter the Zhao family's grain village? And the Zhao family has reported to the magistrate, and I also sent arresters to the Zhao family just now, those people should be dismissed."

Zhang Twelve thought of the fortress-like courtyard walls of the Zhao family and the many guards at home, ordinary people really couldn't get in.

Then, it's up to him.

Seeing Zhang Twelve's hesitant to speak, Wang Chengen knew that he had something to say to him alone, so he found an excuse to distract Wang Ba, and then the two discussed it.

After explaining to Wang Chengen, Zhang Twelve went back to the room to catch up on sleep, because he planned to meet Lu Sanpi tonight!

…………

During the day, Wang Yunshi approached him, because he knew his identity and wanted to help him hide his identity, Zhang Twelve always felt that he had an affair with Wang Yunshi.

For the rest of the time, Zhang Twelve used it to catch up on sleep. Perhaps Wang Chengen had reminded Wang Ba that Wang Ba rarely bothered him.

The time soon came to evening.

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the night is quiet.

When Zhang Twelve came to the city gate, he found only two soldiers guarding the city standing there, sleepy.

Directly use lightness kung fu, fly over the city wall, and run in the direction of Lu Sanpi...

Because Lu Sanpi and the others were not too far away from Jinling City, and with the stop and go these two days, they were already infinitely close to the Jinling City Wall.

So Zhang Twelve flew for less than half an hour before he saw the bonfire burning in front of him and the figures lying on the ground, and he immediately approached them.

The place with the bonfire is where Lu Sanpi stayed.

Unlike other people who fell asleep carefree, Lu Sanpi was a little worried now.

Originally, I made an agreement with Zhang Twelve to delay the flow of refugees as much as possible and wait for him to come back, but he has been delaying for two days for such a short distance, and he will not be able to delay it tomorrow no matter what, because in the past two days he even heard A lot of people are complaining.

If his elder brother and second elder brother were not here, Lu Sanpi would really suspect that Zhang Twelve is a liar...

"Brother Lu!"

Hearing that familiar voice, Lu Sanpi almost cried with joy!

After seeing who was coming through the bonfire, Lu Sanpi stood up and said excitedly: "Brother Zhang, you are back!"

Zhang Twelve could also understand Lu Sanpi's mood at the moment, and motioned him to keep his voice down. After sitting down some distance from the bonfire, Zhang Twelve chatted with Lu Sanpi.

After hearing Zhang Twelve's words, Lu Sanpi's mood became even more excited. He believed Zhang Twelve blindly before, but he didn't expect that after only a few days of work, he would do everything he said before!

The most important thing is that Zhao Family Grain Village has lowered the price of grain. Although it is only a thousand catties a day, he believes that as long as Zhang Twelve is around, everything will be fine!

"Brother Zhang, can we go to Jinling tomorrow?"

Seeing Zhang Twelve nodded, Lu Sanpi continued to ask: "Then what should we do tomorrow?"

After listening to Zhang Twelve's whispering, Lu Sanpi kept nodding his head and said yes, his eyes glowed, and his thoughts had already drifted away. After so many years of ignorance, he finally found an organization...

Then Zhang Twelve went to look for Lu San and Du Lang. The two were even more excited when they saw Zhang Twelve. They looked at Zhao Qingfeng here every day, and they almost faded away. Fortunately, they can entertain Zhao Qingfeng when they are bored.

At the beginning, Zhao Qingfeng was still very arrogant, yelling at Lu San and Du Lang, but what would they do?
After a few punches, Zhao Qingfeng was beaten honestly. Seeing Zhang Twelve appeared, he just raised his eyelids and didn't say a word.

It seems that he has suffered a lot in the past two days!

Zhang Twelve touched him with his foot and said, "Brother Feng, I will send you back to Zhaojia Liangzhuang tomorrow, and then you have to say something nice for me in front of Boss Zhao! If it weren't for me, How can you live so comfortably these days? Hehe..."

"........."

Zhao Qingfeng still didn't say a word, except that he felt that Zhang Twelve was deliberately molesting and humiliating him, more because he felt that his words were not credible.

They dared to beat him, how dare they send him back?
Zhao Qingfeng didn't respond, but Lu San and Du Lang were a little startled, and immediately asked, "My lord, do you really want to send this guy back?"

Zhang Twelve nodded: "Is this true? Brother Feng is well-known in Jinling City. Let's escort Brother Feng back to the city. Boss Zhao will definitely thank us very much!"

"........."

Lu San and Du Lang were completely shocked. They beat this guy up badly in the past two days, and his father thanked them?Thank goodness for not fighting them!
But Zhao Qingfeng sat up from the ground as if revived with full blood, with uncontrollable excitement in his eyes: "Are you serious?"

"Of course it is true! I have agreed with Boss Zhao. I will send Brother Feng back, and Boss Zhao will lower the price of food."

"My father—agreed?"

"If you don't agree, I will let you go back? The price of food has dropped yesterday, fifty cents a catty!"

"........."

Zhao Qingfeng stopped talking, tears were in his eyes, he was angry, he was moved, his father did not hesitate to lower the price of food to fifty cents in order to save him, this is the love of a father!At the same time, he gave Zhang Twelve a vicious look, and he had already made up his mind that when he returned to Zhao's house, he must ask his father to raise the price of grain back immediately!
Not only that, but he also wanted to send someone to catch the bullies and give him a good beating, so as to relieve his great hatred...

…………

Zhang Twelve didn't have the time to guess what Zhao Qingfeng was thinking, but looked at Lu Sanpi who was next to him slowly standing up, and said loudly: "Brothers, we will enter the city tomorrow!"

Many refugees had already fallen asleep, and they all woke up suddenly after hearing Lu Sanpi's words. They couldn't help being curious. Even if he didn't say anything, why should they go to Jinling tomorrow?
It's just that entering the city should be somewhat difficult...

Therefore, Lu Sanpi told about the price reduction of Zhaojialiangzhuang, and everyone was in an uproar when they heard this.

They came from different places. Naturally, the reason was that food prices were too high and they couldn't afford to eat. It happened that Lv San took the lead in asking for justice in Jinling, so they came all the way.

But now that the food price has dropped back to the original low price, is it necessary for them to go to Jinling City?

At this time, Lu Sanpi continued to speak, and when he finished speaking, the crowd was deadly silent, and then the leader shouted hello, and the others immediately shouted hello, the voices were one after another, very lively.

What Lu Sanpi said was what Zhang Twelve had taught him just now.

What he was talking about was that Wang Chengen, the prefect of Jinling, had been working hard to reduce the price of food since the price of food rose a few months ago, but it was the four major grain farms that had no choice but to control the price of food. Even if he was the prefect, he had no other choice.And now Zhaojia Liangzhuang's price reduction is just the beginning, and then other grain manufacturers will also reduce their prices one after another!

And Wang Chengen also understands that they come from all over the world, and they have traveled for so long to reach Jinling, so tomorrow the gate of Jinling will be opened, not only can they enter the city, but Wang Chengen will give each of them five taels of silver as hard work expenses.

Hearing this, how can everyone be unhappy?
The price of food has dropped, this is their original intention, and there is also a benefit fee of five taels of silver-this trip is worth it!

Seeing everyone's reaction, Zhang Twelve was very pleased.

He asked Lu Sanpi to say these things. As for the hard work of five taels of silver per person, it was the result of his discussion with Wang Chengen. Only in this way, even if there were any accidents in the future, these refugees would feel sorry for Wang Chengen. With a heart of gratitude, the spearhead can only be aimed at the four major grain farms!

More than 5000 taels of silver was an astronomical figure for Wang Chengen. Zhang Twelve paid it for him for the time being. Anyway, he didn't feel bad for taking Zhao Baiyu's so much money for nothing—it should be a dowry gift to the old man in advance!
This night, Lu Sanpi finally had a good night's sleep, and was always dreaming about tomorrow's arrival, and what kind of official position Wang Chengen could arrange for him...
