Chapter 469: The thief blocks the way
Chu Xian had a gloomy face at the moment.
The tax of the Holy Dynasty is not high, especially in Liangzhou, because of its remote location, the tax reduction decree has been implemented for decades, but I didn't expect that there would be such a serious tax evasion.
The most smack-throwing thing is that the other party is still so unscrupulous.
"What is this Wacheng Mansion Order for? Chu Xian scolded, no need to ask, this De Ruixiang dares to evade taxes so unscrupulously, and the government order of Wacheng must be responsible for poor supervision, and it may even be involved.
Chu San was standing on the side, waiting for Chu Xian's order at the moment, if Chu Xian asked him to arrest someone, Chu San would not hesitate to do it.
But Chu Xian didn't.
Depending on the height of the station, the angle from which you look at the problem and the way you deal with it will be different.
Now Chu Xian is a stabbing history, and his every move has to be cautious, and it is the kind that if he doesn't make a move, he will be amazing, so things have to be clarified before he can come up with a countermeasure.
Chu Xian was not just thinking about a small tile city, he was looking at the entire Liangzhou, and carefully recalled the tax reports in Liangzhou in the internal affairs book, among which the tile city was only ranked in the middle reach, so other cities, do they also have a similar situation to the tile city?
Chu Xian felt that there must be.
Maybe the problem is worse than that of Wa City.
So don't rush yet.
As for the De Ruixiang Chamber of Commerce, Chu Xian also carefully explored and understood, De Ruixiang also belongs to the big chamber of commerce in Liangzhou, which is a commercial house composed of several wealthy merchants, each with shares, and then checked, it is known that among these shareholders, there are actually distant relatives of many officials from all over the world.
Although the Pilgrimage law strictly forbade officials from doing business, it did not prohibit their distant relatives, so this is a loophole.
Chu Xian understood, no wonder the other party was so unscrupulous, this was clearly a collusion between officials and businessmen.
This kind of thing is definitely not an isolated case, Chu Xian doesn't believe that his previous assassin Guo didn't know, and Li Ji, as a long history, didn't he know either?
In the past few days in Wacheng, Chu Xian and Chu San have been constantly investigating, and they can be regarded as figuring out a lot of things. And in the process, the two found that someone was already secretly following them.
No need to ask, this kind of investigation must have been detected by others, which is also inevitable, not to mention, Chu Xian's investigation of things is not particularly hidden.
For the tail that has been following behind, Chu San asked if he wanted to give a lesson and warn, Chu Xian thought about it and shook his head, a small role, there is no need to bother with anything, and the situation on Wacheng's side has been almost touched, because the other party has nothing to fear, and he is quite rampant, just since they just came two days ago, a guy knows how to evade taxes and silver, and he knows how unscrupulous the situation in Wacheng is.
Therefore, in order to avoid extraneous complications, Chu Xian planned to leave Wacheng temporarily and continue to explore other cities.
However, as soon as I got out of Wacheng, the road in front of me was blocked.
There were more than a dozen people blocking the way, and all of them were unkind, all of them were warriors, and among them there was a scribe with a smile on his face and an unscrupulous appearance.
"Two, stay. ”
The scribe had a mustache, and at this moment, he glanced up and down at Chu Xian and the others, and then asked a person beside him, "Is it them?"
The man nodded.
Chu Xian glanced at the man, knowing that when he and Chu San inquired about the situation in the past few days, this person had been following the tail behind, no need to ask, the other party found out that he was leaving, so he chased after him.
Confirmed, the scribe told the man to step back, then stepped forward and said, "You are not merchants. ”
"How do you know?" asked Chu Xian.
The scribe laughed: "Zhan is well-informed, he has been in Wacheng for so long, is it possible to know at a glance that there are merchants who come and go, if it is a businessman, it is impossible for only two people to go together, and they have not bought anything in and out of Wacheng, and they have not sold anything, will there be such a businessman?"
Chu Xian also smiled: "What do you call it?"
The scribe was proud: "De Ruixiang, Zhan Wende, Your Excellency is the Bodhisattva in that temple?"
I have to say that this scribe's questioning has his characteristics, in short, it is to salute first and then soldier. Chu Xian smiled at this time, did not answer, but asked directly, "What advice do you have?"
Zhan Wende was stunned for a moment, and he didn't expect the other party to be so faceless, and he didn't even report his door.
Zhan Wende is also the number one person in Deruixiang, he has seen everyone and experienced any scene, so he is pretentious, he is not angry at this moment, but sneered: "If you don't report to your family, you don't give face?" But it doesn't matter, I'm a very generous person, and I won't be angry." As for any advice, this is easy to say, Zhan has always liked to make friends, and when he saw the two, he had the idea of making friends, no, he specially brought someone to stop the two, Wacheng had prepared a banquet for the two, and asked the two to turn around and appreciate their faces, maybe they can really make a friend, there is a way to go out, many friends and many roads. ”
Chu Xian smiled, he couldn't even deceive a ghost by saying this, and it was a shame that this Zhan Wende could talk nonsense here without blushing and his heart beating.
If you really go back, you will have to be controlled and placed under house arrest and asked about the origin and purpose.
These, Chu Xian knew that the other party had done it, the people in the Liangzhou realm were fierce by nature, and it was common for them to fight if they didn't agree with each other, and if they really touched the interests of the other party, the other party would definitely do the trick.
Of course, these people must be jealous.
Because they can't figure out the situation on their side, otherwise if they find out, they will do it directly.
Just when Chu San felt that Chu Xian would definitely let him take action and teach these people a hard lesson, and then they walked away, he heard Chu Xian turn his head and ask, "Chu San, are you hungry?"
Chu San was stunned.
What kind of routine is this?
I didn't say it before, but to be honest, although Chu San had already cultivated to the realm of Bigu, as a martial artist, he didn't eat a few meals a day, and he really didn't eat early this morning, so Chu San was very honest.
"Hungry!"
Chu Xian nodded: "Since you're hungry, and someone else is invited to eat, then let's go back and have a meal, just right, I also have something to ask this Mr. Zhan." ”
I actually agreed!
Zhan Wende over there was very surprised, he is the person who likes to show off his eloquence and play with people's hearts the most, he expected that the other party would definitely not dare to go back, and he was estimated to do it, but he was not afraid, he brought more than a dozen good players from the Chamber of Commerce, and it was easy to deal with two people.
But what he never expected was that the other party didn't play according to the routine, and actually agreed.
This made Zhan Wende, who has always been eloquent and pretentious, not know how to answer for a while.
Chu Xian touched his stomach and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhan, the two of us can eat, your banquet can be better, more, the food is not suitable, first, your chamber of commerce will lose face, and second, we will also turn our faces." ”
When he said this with a smile, his face was approachable, but in Zhan Wende's eyes, it actually made his heart skip a beat.
It always feels like something is wrong.
But Zhan Wende, as the master of the Deruixiang Chamber of Commerce, is also a high authority, and the most important thing is that he thinks that he is unparalleled in strategy and is very conceited, how can he be compared to others in this face at this moment.
reacted at the moment, and laughed: "Since the two of you are so appreciative, then let's go, as for the banquet, then don't ask, it's definitely the best." ”
After saying this, he secretly said behind his back: "No matter how good the banquet is, you have to be famous to eat and drink, this time I went back to Wacheng, and life and death are up to you." ”
So the two groups of people, each with their own thoughts, walked back to Wacheng peacefully.
There are many restaurants in the Deruixiang Chamber of Commerce, but at this moment, what Zhan Wende took Chu Xian and Chu San to was a very remote courtyard.
After entering the door, you can see that the people standing on both sides are all big men, all of them are murderous, and some are still carrying scimitars in their hands, the edge of the knife is sharp, and the hair is broken.
Among these big men, there are some powerful half-demons, and even demon clans.
Standing in the innermost are the two Minotaur Demon Clan, their physique is far stronger than the Human Race, even if it is a fierce strong man like Chu San, standing in front of this Minotaur Demon Clan, he can only reach the chest of others, and in terms of pure strength, it cannot be compared with it at all.
That's not all, there are people next to him who are leading two tigers, wolves and demon beasts with iron chains.
This thing is extremely fierce, larger than a bull, full of fangs, of different lengths, dense, a pair of blood-colored beast eyes, revealing infinite killing intent, no matter who you look at, it seems to be staring at food.
It's this scene, ordinary people look at it, and it is estimated that they can't even walk on the road, but whether it is Chu Xian or Chu San, they are all fearless, and they are even walking leisurely along the way.
Zhan Wende has been observing.
He has used this battle many times, and it can be said that he has already been handy, whether it is a competitor or an official family, no matter how sharp and confident he is, he has to show his stuff and be timid.
And no matter what you ask or talk about for a while, if the other party's momentum is weak, then no matter what you do, his side will have the advantage.
But Zhan Wende was a little uncertain about the appearance of these two people.
Secretly said in their hearts, aren't they afraid?
Impossible, this kind of scene, is a person will be afraid, there were also people who were coaxed by cowhide to come to Wacheng to do things, but as a result, they went here, and when they walked, they looked at it again, what sharpness, what arrogance was gone, and there were questions that must be answered.
"Hmph, it's quite pretend, I'd like to see how long you two can pretend. Zhan Wende feels that he is experienced, and now it is his territory, his home field, he can do whatever he wants, no matter what the other party comes from, in the territory of Wacheng, he has to be obedient.
As for the banquet, of course, there are preparations, but every time in the past, no matter who is brought here, the other party has no heart to eat and drink, but Zhan Wende himself can eat and drink to watch the play.
At this moment, I walked all the way to the living room, and there were still a few big men with knives inside, watching around the table.
But apparently, this time Zhan Wende miscalculated
