Chapter 358: Far Eastern Commercial Bank
When Chen Xiang returned to Luoyang from Zhuangzi outside the city, he hid in the courtyard, and now he refused to see visitors to the outside world. As a result, even King Fu was alarmed, and specially sent a doctor from the palace to visit, and also sent a large number of precious supplements.
People from all walks of life in Luoyang City also lined up to send a large number of gifts, and even several masters of Luoyang Mansion also sent people to visit. The matter of Zhuangzi outside the city, Chen Xiang did not publicize it everywhere. Even if he sued the Yamen about this matter, it would be useless, in case he annoyed the other party, and then destroyed his family.
He has always wondered how those people entered the courtyard where there were more than 100 guards in Zhuangzi outside the city. And he also felt a glimmer of life in what happened. The other party may have warned him that if he wanted to kill him, he might have died like a gang leader.
While he was thinking wildly, the butler went into the house and reported that Wang Gao had come to see him. Chen Xiang hurriedly asked the housekeeper to call people in. Wang Gao is also pale now, his eyes are blank, and he looks lost and depressed.
"My lord, I'm here to bid you farewell, and I'm going to leave Luoyang with my family and return to my hometown for a few years."
Chen Xiang sneered: "Wang Gao, where is your previous shrewdness, do you think you can escape if you escape?" They can kill your family along the way. Although these people entered the Zhuangzi, they only cut off the heads of the livestock and horses, and did not touch our families, which means that we still have a way to live, and I wonder if they are going to show their faces. ”
Wang Gao said with a bitter face: "My lord, last night another gang leader died, and he was beheaded in bed. These thieves don't want us to die so easily, they want to slowly force us to death. My lord, why don't you go and tell the prince that we have done so many things for the Fu Wangfu Mansion over the years, His Royal Highness the Fu King will definitely take care of you. ”
Listening to Wang Gao's words, Chen Xiang's body trembled obviously, and then said with a wry smile: "Do you think the prince can keep us?" With the methods of those thieves, where can we hide and escape their pursuit? Now it seems that there is only a matter of waiting. You go back first, if they find us in the next few days, then we still have a way to live. ”
After Wang Gao left, Chen Xiang became more and more restless. He casually took out a crystal bottle from the brocade box, poured out a pill and put it in his mouth. With the extreme excitement coming in waves, all the anxiety and uneasiness suddenly disappeared. Chen Xiang enjoyed the pleasure to the fullest, if it weren't for these pills, he wouldn't know how to survive this time.
But there were not many pills in his hand, and once there were no pills, he didn't dare to imagine what it would be like. He even thought that those thieves had a plan to give him these pills. But he still couldn't control himself from taking those pills, and he really couldn't forget the refreshing taste to his bones.
In the next few days, the gang leaders in Luoyang City breathed a sigh of relief, because no one on the road had died these days. However, several small officials, catchers and helpers of the government all died of strange diseases, and these people all participated in the plot to seize Song Shiping's shop without exception.
When the people of the government died, this matter could no longer be contained, and Luoyang City suddenly became nervous. All the fast catchers were red-eyed, and the government officials of the three classes of soap, Zhuang, and Kuai, as well as a large group of helpers, all moved. When the people in the road die, they don't want to take care of it, but if the brother in the public gate dies, it will be a great deal.
Even several lords of the Luoyang Mansion have issued strict orders that the case must be investigated, and these thieves must be caught and brought to justice. But after a few days of commotion, they didn't find even a clue.
Wang Gao stayed in his house every day, ignoring the affairs in Luoyang City, he had dispelled the idea of leaving Luoyang with his family, and waited anxiously for those thieves to come to the door every day.
What tormented him the most now was that those pills were gone, and Wang Gao, who knew the taste of the marrow, was already scratching the wall uncomfortably. Every day, his hair is scattered, his face is pale, his face is withered, and he lives a life where no one is a ghost or a ghost.
That night, Wang Gao fell asleep rarely, and slept very solidly, he had not slept so comfortably for a long time, but he suddenly woke up in the night, as soon as he sat up from the bed, he found that there were several dazzling beams of light in the room, shaking him so that he could not open his eyes.
He was about to shout loudly, but someone held his mouth down, and a short knife with a cold light was pressed against his throat.
"If you dare to speak out, I'll kill you......"
Wang Gao, who was originally stunned, suddenly came to his senses, his mind turned sharply, and he guessed the identities of these people, I don't know why, Wang Gao, who should have been afraid, was a little excited at this time, this gang of masters finally came.
A deep voice came: "Let go of him, I have something to say to him." ”
Wang Gao felt the other party's hand loosen, and he had a chance to look inside the room. There were a few people standing faintly in the room, but the blinding light made it impossible for him to see each other's faces.
"You know who we are, right?"
Wang Gao hurriedly said, "I know...... Know...... The villain offended the heroes before, but it was a crime that deserved to die, and the villain was just acting on orders, and it was all done by the villain forced by the right long history. ”
"I'll tell you the truth, we are from the sea, and these shops are also ours, we just let people take care of it for us in Daming. But your Fuwang Mansion is too domineering. Today your death date has arrived, and your fate is not good, hehe......"
Wang Gao was stunned when he heard this, although he had been living in fear, and always felt that he would not see the sun the next day, but at this time, his urine was about to be scared out.
He crawled off the bed, knelt down with a "poof", and kowtowed and begged for mercy.
Song Tao sat opposite and sneered: "It's okay if I don't kill you, those dozen shops have been delayed for so long, how can we calculate our losses?" And what about the people who are in prison? ”
When Wang Gao heard this, he immediately became excited, his mind turned sharply, it seems that Lord Right Changshi is right, they may really have a way to live. Thinking of this, he hurriedly said eagerly: "After I report to Lord Right Changshi, those shops will be returned as they are, and those who are locked in the Yamen prison will be released immediately, and we will double the compensation for the losses of your heroes." ”
Song Tao sneered and said: "Since this is the case, I will spare you once today, I will give you three days, if you dare to deceive us, you will wait to destroy the door, hum......"
Wang Gao was so frightened that he shuddered, but he suddenly remembered something, and it was another kowtow.
"You heroes have big tonic pills in their hands, if you have them, sell some with the villain, I am willing to pay a high price, ask the heroes to be fulfilled, just sell some to the villain."
Song Tao smiled and glanced at each other with a few special combat team members, and then he nodded at one of the team members. The team member took out a few small bags and threw them in front of Wang Gao. Wang Gao pounced, took out a pill from the bag, and quickly swallowed it into his mouth.
Not long after swallowing the pill into his stomach, with a "boom", Wang Gao felt as if his brain had exploded. But what followed was an endless feeling of comfort, this time the medicinal power was several times stronger than the previous effect, and it also made Wang Gaoshuang's Yu Xianyu die.
Song Tao looked at Wang Gao who was curled up on the ground, shook his head and said, "Billy Zhou, this guy is really ...... In their line of work, they are all stealing chickens and dogs, even if they smash their jobs, they will not be starved to death in the future. ”
It wasn't until the power of the medicine had passed that Wang Gao recovered, and these days the threat of death on the one hand, and the torment of drug addiction on the other, were about to torture him crazy. Today is really the end, not only to see the way to live, but also to satisfy his drug addiction for many days, Wang Gao's spirit and body instantly relaxed, and he feels very prostration.
Song Tao stood up and said in a deep voice: "You take these pills first, if you still want them in the future, we will find someone to contact you, and we will settle it together when the time comes." Don't forget what you promised, if you dare to play tricks, you know the consequences. ”
After he finished speaking, he led a few special combat team members out of the house, leaving Wang Gao to sit alone on the ground. The anxiety of the days had been swept away, and he even felt drowsy, and he crawled into bed in a few steps and fell asleep.
Song Tao and several special combat team members took advantage of the cover of night to return to their foothold in the city. Another group of special combat team members, also led by Zhou Billy, went to Chen Xiang's Zhuangzi, and also rushed back shortly after they returned.
"Lao Zhou, the kind of medicine you prepared is too harmful, that Wang Gao is not a ghost or a ghost now, don't eat it for a few years and die on it. How is Chen Xiang there? ”
Billy Zhou smiled and said lightly: "Don't worry, I know in my heart, at least until we fight here, they can't die." These two guys are in Luoyang, relying on the Lu Wangfu, there are many people who have been forced to ruin their families, and we will be merciful if we don't kill him. ”
Early the next morning, Chen Xiang hurriedly found Wang Gao, and the two stayed in Chen Xiang's house for a long time. In the next two days, Cai Huaze, who was locked up in the yamen, and several shopkeepers under Song Shiping were secretly released.
Song Shiping's more than a dozen shops in Henan were also taken back by Song Shiping's people in Henan. Zhou Weifan, as the person in charge of the Far East in Henan, secretly met with Chen Xiang and Wang Gao.
Soon after, a new shop was opened in Luoyang, which was called Far Eastern Commercial Company. It is said that the owner behind this shop is Chen Xiang, the right chief of Lu Wangfu. On the opening day, all kinds of people in Luoyang sent a lot of congratulatory gifts to the party. Not long after the opening of the Far Eastern Group, the business opened up, and many branches were opened in various parts of Daming in the future. Every shop is doing a thriving business.
These things were all handled by Zhou Weifan, and Song Tao and Zhou Billy were not involved. They were studying together, preparing to meet Cai Huaze, the remnant of the Shandong Smelling Fragrance Sect. R1152
