Tang's dining table

People all over Chang'an have all kinds of comments about Yun Chu.

However, no one has ever said that Yunchu was a benevolent county official.

Even those who accepted Yunchu's favor never thought so. At most, they thought the county leader was a reasonable person.

Yunchu was reasonable most of the time in Chang'an, and he was never reasonable for the rest of the time.

When he was being reasonable, he could squat on Zhuque Street and spit at each other. When he was being unreasonable, he would hang the person in the lotus pond and wait for the flesh to rot, and then take the bones to the Imperial Hospital as teaching aids.

Therefore, when you are trying to reason with the county magistrate, it is best to have reason on your side.

When it comes to winning, the county magistrate will never be merciful when it comes to the compensation that should be paid or how to deal with certain people. When it comes to losing, the county magistrate will not be merciful at all.

Therefore, when Yun Chu stood at the city gate and roared, the whole Chang'an City was boiling.

Countless people ran madly towards Mingdemen. Many people even lost their shoes and didn't care. They ran very fast with bare feet in the cold winter.

Among them, the fastest runner was Zhang Jia, the former county magistrate. Ever since he was replaced by the Wu brothers, he had been idle at home. When a bad guy panted and told him that the county magistrate was back, Zhang Jia He didn't choose to ride a horse, but came running wildly.

When he ran to Mingde Gate in one breath, he saw Yun Chu sitting on the bay red horse. He wanted to call out, but his throat was so thick and his eyes became gray. All he could do was run to the bay red horse and crawl on his knees. The person on the ground said with a cry: "You are finally back -"

The bay horse was worried that this guy would get his nose stuck on its legs, so he took a cautious step back.

Yun Chu looked at the Wannian County officials who were still running wildly, and said to Zhang Jia: "Get out of here, you dignified county magistrate, what do you look like?"

Zhang Jia beat his chest and cried: "I was raped."

Yun Chu said: "I'm just a county magistrate, and now you are."

Zhang Jia smiled through his tears, bowed and said, "I accept your orders."

Yun Chu laughed evilly and said: "I have only been away from Chang'an for a long time, and now I have started to slack off. You first gather the government officials and bad guys for me, and then order the people to surround the city of Chang'an and stop traffic. Today , I, the County Lord, need to reorganize Chang'an.

If we don't crack down hard once, all kinds of monsters and monsters will come out and cause harm to people. "

Zhang Jia immediately knelt down on one knee and said, "Here."

Yun Chu waved his hand and said, "Go ahead. Anyone who encounters any obstacles will be thrown into jail."

Zhang Jia agreed again and began to select government servants and bad guys from the crowd. Ever since Liu Nayan and Shi Zang were interrogated and their bodies were hanged in Qujiang City by Yong Wangxian, the Wu brothers were also captured from Lishan by Yong Wangxian. Now, It was their brothers who were acting as government officials in Chang'an.

The way these two brothers handle Chang'an's government affairs is by not acting!

However, the Chang'an government is a place where rules are very important. If the superior officials don't say anything, the lower officials can't do anything.

In other words, during this period of time in Chang'an, the government was basically not functioning.

Now that Chang'an's Zhengyin officials are back, those two who came here temporarily to make up for their losses should get out.

In a short time, Zhang Jia gathered the manpower he needed. With an order issued in front of Yun Chu, countless unscrupulous people in uniforms immediately dispersed into various major areas.

When Yun Chu entered Mingde Gate, the officials of Wannian County, large and small, who had gathered there had already received their errands. When they came back again, they brought more minor officials.

They were very experienced in how to deal with a huge caravan. Yunchu just stated his requirements, and they could naturally execute them very well.

When Yun Chu set foot on Zhuque Street, both sides of the street were crowded with people. After hearing the news, the Wu brothers stood in the middle of the street to greet Yun Chu's arrival with official courtesy.

Of course, Yunchu also treated the brothers with the courtesy of an official.

Every time the people on both sides of Zhuque Street heard the Wu brothers' screams, their faces twitched and their bodies trembled.

Yun Chu didn't give the two brothers any chance to defend themselves. When he saw them, he punched hard first. The Wu brothers had also practiced martial arts. Unfortunately, in front of Yun Chu, their brothers were just two human-shaped sandbags.

Yun Chu didn't even give the two brothers a chance to fall to the ground. As soon as he found out that one of them was about to fall to the ground, he would be kicked up by him with his legs. As a result, the Wu brothers soon couldn't scream anymore. People on both sides of the street The common people could only hear the "bang bang" sound of Yun Chu's fist or leg hitting the two brothers.

These two brothers were so lucky. The crisis that was supposed to be triggered by them was intercepted by Yong Wangxian. Therefore, no matter how you put it, neither of them deserved death.

Yun Chu's attack was very serious. Even though the two brothers were beaten, they had already passed out. However, it was just a superficial wound. Seeing that the man had been beaten into two bloody gourds, he was vomiting blood and was unconscious again. As long as Yunchu stopped beating him, they would lie in bed for half a year, and they would basically be two good guys again.

As the Wu brothers spit out several teeth and fell to the ground, Yun Chu finally stopped.

He took the cold water-soaked towel handed over by the Wannian County government servant and slowly wiped the blood on his hands. After the blood was wiped away, Yunchu looked around and saw those who tied themselves to the copper bull and were begging for their lives. Money merchants.

In the past, these merchants were afraid that their bindings were not strong enough and they would be dragged away by the government officials. Now, they are desperately trying to untie the chains. At this moment, no one is thinking about asking for money anymore, they just want to run away.

Yunchu came to an old businessman who was about to freeze to death, stretched out his hand and said: "Invoice."

The old merchant desperately took out the bill and handed it to Yun Chu: "Old man, I admit it."

Yun Chu glanced at the bills in his hand and said: "The 127 lots of Hedong sheep bought for 220 yuan have not yet been delivered. These are real money, how can we forget about it?"

The old merchant didn't know where he got the courage, so he yelled at Yun Chu: "Who can the old man go to to cash in? The seller is one of the fourteen ranches in Hedong Road. Who is willing to recognize it?"

Yun Chu smiled and said, "I've accepted your order. How much are you willing to pay?"

The old merchant burst into tears and said, "Just give me fifty guan. Four years ago, I used fifty guan for the Liushui brand. I only want the capital!"

Yun Chu frowned and said: "For four years, running to the trading hall rain or shine, this person has to pay a lot of money for eating horse chews. Are you willing to do it?"

The old merchant wailed: "I only want fifty guan!"

Yun Chu thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, I've got one hundred connections."

The old businessman looked at Yun Chu who was dressed as a monk in disbelief and said, "Aren't you going to make fun of this old man?"

Yunchu asked the soldiers to bring eight gold ingots in a cart, threw them to the old merchant and said, "The money and goods have been paid, and we don't owe each other anything."

The old merchant took a bite of the gold ingots one by one, and after confirming that they were real gold, he said dissatisfiedly: "It should be ten gold ingots."

Yun Chu looked at the old merchant with disdain and said, "You don't know how to exchange gold and copper coins, or are you bullying this county official?"

The old merchant held the gold and asked suspiciously: "Why did the county magistrate charge a premium for the contract documents?"

Yun Chu whispered in his ear: "Because of your Hedong sheep order, Hedong Ranch has already sent the sheep to Chang'an for delivery. At this time, it is at the livestock market outside the city."

The old merchant's old eyes suddenly widened, and his upper teeth clashed with his lower teeth. He tried hard to pick up the gold in his arms and wanted to return it to Yun Chu, but Yun Chu ignored him and went straight to find the next one. Merchant.

As he walked, he said angrily: "Old guy, you have the money, but you have made poop all around the copper bull. Before dawn, you have to clean it up for me. If there is any smell, I will let the bad guys put the poop in the bucket. Pour it into your stove."

Then, the old merchant held his pile of gold, howling and rolling on the ground. He knew that the county official would not lie to him. You said that the county official had a bad temper, was violent, and liked old women. , except that he cannot be said to be a liar. He has been an official in Chang'an for so many years and has never deceived anyone.

But this time, why didn't he say earlier that Hedong Yang's order had started to be delivered?

Otherwise, based on the current sheep price in Chang'an, his order would be worth at least three hundred guan.

Seeing the old merchant holding the gold and crying as if his parents were dead, the second merchant with a goatee was obviously a smart man. When he saw Yunchu coming, he immediately fell on the ground and cried: "My lord, there is no way to survive." Oh, the little one is dead after buying Handan Iron. Please ask the county magistrate to give him a way to survive."

Hearing the word Handan Iron, Master Liu, who came with Yun Chu, twitched his mouth. He now wanted to take away the Handan Iron from this crying merchant on behalf of Yun Chu. However, seeing Yun Chu smiling It seemed like he didn't dare.

"Okay, okay, okay, you have come to me to beg me, so I will give you a way to survive. Tell me, how much Handan iron did you buy?"

"Four hundred and ten guan, the county official only needs to give the younger one one hundred and twenty guan, and the younger one will sell it!"

Yun Chu said with a smile: "You are greedy."

When he said this, Yun Chu glanced at the old businessman standing behind him who was no longer rolling around on the ground. He thought that this old guy would remind his unlucky companion, but he didn't expect that this old guy actually shut his mouth. De Yanyan's eyes were full of gloating.

As the housekeepers and petty officials from Wannian County who came back to serve Yun Chu came over and weighed the gold and paid it to the goatee merchant who sold Handan iron, the old guy started to whisper in the goatee merchant's ear. .

Immediately, the goatee merchant came to Yunchu's side shivering and whispered: "Has Handan Iron been delivered?"

Yun Chu pointed at Master Liu who was not far away and said, "Their family is the largest iron merchant in Hebei Province. Their name is Master Liu. If you buy Handan iron, you should know his name, right?"

The goateeed merchant looked like he wanted to spit all the spit in his mouth on Yun Chu's smiling face, but he didn't dare, so he turned back and spit all the spit on the old merchant's face.

Yun Chu purchased the contracts and bills from several merchants. Manager Zhao of the exchange who followed Hu Fang still said to Yun Chu in a worried voice in a low voice: "My lord, even if we recycle them all at 30% of the price, it will still cost 900 yuan." Wan Guan."

Yun Chu smiled and said: "It's okay, keep it, keep it, keep it, maybe someone won't want to sell it."

Shopkeeper Zhao said: "Delivery is a big problem after all."

Yunchu looked around the crowded Zhuque Street and laughed: "I like those merchants who have taken deposits from Liushui Brand but are unwilling to deliver the goods on time!"
