Suddenly there were two "pops".

The fine Jingdezhen teacup shattered on the ground.

It turned out that my mother and aunt dropped the teacup on the ground.

He looked at everyone looking at him questioningly.

Zhao Ping arched his hands and gave a group salute to everyone around him.

Then he felt calm and said: "I dare to swear on the reputation of "Da Song Zhonghua News" that these craftsmen will definitely not be sent by the Hu people. Most of them are craftsmen from Chengdu, and a few are from Meishan and Yazhou. , Lizhou and other craftsmen. These craftsmen work wholeheartedly in Zhaojiazhuang, how can they become fine work? "

Having said this, he looked at everyone, and then said in a pitiful tone: "Besides, they lived a slave life among the Hu people, worse than pigs and dogs, and their wives and daughters were humiliated by the Hu people before they came to the Song Dynasty with full hope. To survive. Thirty thousand miles of river east enters the sea, five thousand miles of mountains reach the sky, the remaining people shed tears in the dust, and look south to the king's division for another year!"

"I don't know how much bitterness the remnants feel about letting the old man go. Now someone in the Yamen has caught the craftsman, and I'm afraid there is an ulterior motive."

"Everyone, I care about all the craftsmen and have no intention of staying here. I'm sorry to my parents and teachers. I hereby take my leave!"

Zhao Ping bowed his hands to everyone present, got up from his seat and was about to leave.

He must save these craftsmen.

What Zhao Ping didn't know was.

There is a rumor circulating in Zhaojiazhuang.

Said that Zhaojiazhuang was going to collapse.

Even Wangjiazhuang and Lijiazhuang know it.

And it has a nose and eyes.

It even gradually spread to Changyuan County and Changzhou.

Because Zhaojiazhuang craftsmen were arrested by the government.

I heard they were Hu spies.

There are so many barbarian spies.

Aren't you going to destroy Sichuan?

I originally thought that Zhaojiazhuang just smelled like copper.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the den of foreign spies.

Are they going to cooperate with the barbarians?

And some people pointed fingers at Zhaojiazhuang.

They say that Zhaojiazhuang harbors filth and evil.

Actually doing things for barbarians.

It turns out that the stench of copper was actually for the barbarians.

I bother!

The relatives of the craftsmen also cried and found Zhao Jie.

It is said that they are not the work of hooligans.

They were wronged.

Please ask housekeeper Zhao Jie to rescue them.

Zhao Jie's head got bigger.

Without craftsmen, Zhaojiazhuang suddenly stopped production.

Business is also falling day by day.

What is even more worrying is that some businessmen turned around and left.

Because Zhaojiazhuang is a den for Hu people.

They do business with Zhaojiazhuang.

Isn’t it indirectly supporting the Hu people?

Although businessmen have no borders, some businessmen are not included in this category.

Some other businessmen were afraid that Zhaojiazhuang would collapse and kept pressing for payment.

Zhang Jiayong is a businessman.

He used to be a traveling trader.

He insisted on doing business in Zhaojiazhuang.

Select Zhaojiazhuang products for sale in nearby Dazu.

The business is getting bigger and bigger.

Now he has a boat.

Transportation from Zhaojiazhuang to Dazu.

It’s swimming against the current.

Because there are many beaches on the road.

He and his family came down to move the boat.

Although hard work.

But business is getting better and better.

He and his family planned to change to a larger one in the future.

Not expected.

When we came to the dock today, people were talking a lot.

Said that Zhaojiazhuang was going to collapse.

Zhang Jiayong asked his brother Zhang Jiayuan to see the cargo ship.

He stepped forward to inquire about the news himself.

Sure enough, it was the Zhaojiazhuang craftsmen who were arrested by the government.

He has been taken to Changyuan County Prison.

OMG.

He owes fifty thousand dollars.

Zhaojiazhuang collapsed,

I'm not finished either.

He fainted immediately.

This aroused the anger of businessmen even more.

They carried Zhang Jiayong's body to find Zhao Jie.

Make a request and Master Wang will give you a loan as soon as possible.

The second is to no longer want things from Zhaojiazhuang.

And they don’t want a Zhaojiazhuang delivery card.

Although the Zhaojiazhuang delivery card is more valuable than Huizi.

That’s because Zhaojiazhuang has credibility.

But now Zhaojiazhuang has become a hideout for foreigners.

What credibility is there left to speak of?

Zhaojiazhuang was forced to pay copper coins and silver.

Zhaojiazhuang was temporarily cut off from its capital chain.

Because there was no copper coin or silver.

Even a meeting is fine.

But no one expected these situations.

Like a storm.

It extinguished the fire of hope in Zhaojiazhuang.

Raw materials cannot come in for a while.

The product cannot be sold.

Yang Zhen is the foreman of a section of Xian Tan.

Responsible for piling up soot.

Because the sales of fairy charcoal are particularly large.

Therefore, although this section is simple, there are only twenty or thirty people.

Since he was the first old man to join Zhaojiazhuang, he was promoted to the position of foreman of the construction section.

The person who promoted him was Zhao Tian's brother-in-law Zhou Jiu.

Zhou Jiu is the shopkeeper of Xiantanfang.

The management method of male acupuncture is simple and crude.

If you don't obey, your money will be deducted.

I won't give you a reason either.

And when the performance was distributed half a month, the workers found that this section was always less productive than others.

Some workers reported the matter to Zhou Jiu, but nothing happened.

they do not know.

Yang Zhen's most beautiful sister is Zhou Jiu's concubine.

As the business in Zhaojiazhuang is booming, Yang Zhen is even more proud.

He started by purchasing a bullock cart.

I don’t think it’s enough.

So I paid for the goods at Zhaojiazhuang Bank.

Replace the ox-cart with a horse-drawn carriage.

Although the horse is a rogue horse.

But it is no longer the same as the bullock cart.

He also drives his carriage every day.

I saw some pretty little ladies and flirted with them.

Don't tell me, there is a little lady who likes him.

The two parties have reached the stage of discussing marriage.

I am going to choose an auspicious day to get married.

Unexpectedly, something unexpected happened.

The craftsmen in Zhaojiazhuang were arrested by the government.

The workshop ceased production.

Business has plummeted.

In the past, the supply of the fairy charcoal they produced was in short supply.

It can even be said that the emperor's daughter has no worries about getting married.

Unexpectedly, merchants no longer purchase goods.

They also ran out of the coal ash they needed.

They had to go home and wait for news.

But when I heard that there was no business in Zhaojiazhuang.

Pickup cards also need to be turned into waste paper.

what to do?

The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became.

Didn't sleep well all night.

After thinking about it all night, I thought it would be better to turn it into copper coins.

The next day, he found all the pickup cards and packed them in boxes.

He found his brother-in-law Zhou Jiu.

Ask him to exchange the pickup card for copper coins.

After all, Yang Zhen is the brother of his most beloved concubine.

This face should still be given.

He found Zhao Tian.

Zhao Tian agreed.

The condition is that he can no longer be the foreman of the ash pile section.

I thought about Yang Needle for a long time.

Finally agreed.

In fact, Zhou Jiu also wanted to exchange the pickup card for copper coins.

But he was rejected by his brother-in-law.

His brother-in-law is Zhao Tian.

He was able to become the shopkeeper of Xiantan and had already entered the core class of Zhaojiazhuang.

So it was rejected.

Zhou Jiu didn't understand at first.

Later he figured it out.

If he doesn't want to be central.

That means not being a shopkeeper.

He can turn the pickup card into copper coins.

So he thought about it for a long time and finally rejected his wife's request.

Take this shopkeeper to the end.

In fact, it is not only foremans like Yang Zhen who are like this, but also some workers who have heard rumors from outside.

They also came to Zhaojiazhuang Bank to turn their pickup cards into copper coins.

If you don’t have copper coins, you can just do it in Huizi.

Zhaojiazhuang Bank accepts all workers and exchanges them all.

All of a sudden.

Zhaojiazhuang was caught in a storm.

Wang Wenfu watched as Zhaojiazhuang suddenly turned off.

From sneer to laughter.

Because of these rumors, it was he who arranged for people to let them out.

He had already planned this.

I have always wanted to capture Zhaojiazhuang.

Only when Zhaojiazhuang is completely paralyzed can he take over.

I didn't expect that the opportunity would come now.

Not only did he spread rumors, he also pretended to be businessmen and passers-by, constantly blocking foreign businessmen.

He even sent his confidants to work in Zhaojiazhuang.

It is a pity that no matter how hard these people try, they cannot enter the core class of Zhaojiazhuang.

He planned to start with Brother Wang Qihu and others.

Brother Wang Qihu received an invitation to attend a birthday banquet three days later.

This is a sixtieth birthday.

The host of the birthday banquet was none other than Wang Wenfu's father.

Wang Wenfu is the deputy chief of the capital of Wangjia Village and the deputy chief of the Wang family.

The three brothers had to go, after all, they were from Wangjia Village.

There were three other people who received the invitation: Wang Xiaojia, Wang Xiaoyi, and Wang Xiaobing.

Even Zhao Yun also received the invitation. He is Wangjiazhuang's uncle.

Yuan Xuezheng and Qian Shao looked at each other, and Qian Shao nodded.

Yuan Xuezheng said: "Ping'er, I and Qian Zhilu went to find an acquaintance to prevent these precious craftsmen from being imprisoned."

My uncle also stood up and said, "Ping'er, uncle, I'm going to find my classmates and friends to get some news."

Xin Zhicai turned around and said to Xin Dong: "Uncle, take my name badge and go find the warden and say hello to them to prevent them from doing evil to these precious craftsmen."

Lu Lu looked at Yang Tao, then at Zhang Chang and others, bowed his hands to Zhao Ping and said, "Xiao Langjun, although we can't do anything substantial, we can cheer for you."

All of them bowed their hands to Zhao Ping and saluted, and shouted in unison: "We are willing to cheer for you."

Zhao Ping saluted everyone and said: "Zhao Ping thanks the officials, Xuezheng, Zhilu, elders and friends for their love. It will be repaid."

Everyone returned the gift one after another: "It should be like this, without asking for anything in return."

Although my mother was wearing a curtain hat, she said to Zhao Ping: "My mother is now the acting head of Zhaojiazhuang, how can I fall behind? Ping'er, use the handle of your filial mother's car to push your mother along."

Zhao Ping nodded and carried the filial mother's car downstairs with Cuizhu, Wang Guo'er and Zhao Long.

When they arrived on the first floor, a waiter gave Zhao Ping a letter and said, "Just now someone asked a boy to deliver a letter, saying that it must be delivered to Xiao Langjun himself."

Zhao Ping tore off the paint and saw only one sentence inside: "Prince He's sister is Liu Ang's concubine."

No signature either.

It seems that the other party is not willing to offend others.

But be willing to reveal this critical information.

This is enough.

As expected, Wangjiazhuang colluded with the county magistrate Liu Ang.

It seems that things are a bit tricky.

Zhao Ping couldn't help frowning and carefully placed the letter in his arms to keep it.

Just after coming out of Jingyuan Restaurant, I saw more than twenty students from the county school.

One of them is Wang Zihe.

They surrounded Jingyuan Restaurant and raised their right hands and shouted: "Kill the barbarians and save the people of the Song Dynasty!"

Zhao Ping looked coldly at the students who were waving their right hands around him.

The people organizing behind the scenes were really powerful, and they actually knew how to organize students to exert pressure.
