Entering the dye vat this time was a little better than the last time, at least it was not head-first, but this time the buttocks went in first, and the whole person was lying on all fours in the dye vat. Fortunately, his head did not slip in, otherwise he would be drowned in dye. die.
The dozen or so government officials huddled at the door watched Zhao Er being kicked into the dyeing vat by Shao Xi again. This time, no one dared to go up and pull him out. The wound on everyone's wrist reminded them that the old man and young man in front of them were people they couldn't afford to mess with, and it was best not to get closer.
Shao Xi walked to the dye vat with a folding fan and said to Zhao Er: "It seems that you like to bully others. Today I will give you a chance to let you experience the feeling of being bullied. Before I leave this yard, you'd better Stay in there honestly. As long as you dare to come out, I will make a bigger tank to put you in, and then find a place to bury you. I guess it might be quite valuable to dig you out in a hundred and eighty years. , what do you think of my idea?"
At this time, Zhao Er was completely frightened. He looked up at Shao Xi with his flashy face and nodded quickly when he saw Shao Xi asking him a question. Thinking about it, it seemed wrong, and he quickly shook his head.
At this time, he was completely confused by Shao Xi. He didn't know who the other party was, but he knew that he must have messed with someone he shouldn't have messed with.
Shao Xi turned to Lao Wu and said helplessly: "Originally, I wanted to keep a low profile on this trip, but now it seems that it is no longer possible. I can only tell you that I am sorry. I hope it will not affect you in finding that little nun."
Old Wu curled his lips, "If I had known you would do some shit, I wouldn't be surprised. And I have to correct you! I'm not going to find that little nun, I'm going to find that little nun for you, you Why do you think I'm looking for her? Isn't it just for you?"
"Okay, okay, don't worry, I made a mistake! Anyway, now I have to meddle in my own business again, so don't nag me again then."
"You can do whatever you want! It's not the first time anyway. Now you poop and wipe your own ass. It has nothing to do with me."
In fact, on the surface, it seems that Old Wu still doesn't like Shao Xi's nosy, but now Shao Xi is different from before, both in terms of martial arts and his current identity and status, he can solve troubles by himself, and Unlike when he first entered the Central Plains, Lao Wu had to remind him of everything.
Shao Xi turned to the dozen or so government officials at the door and said, "Go back to the county government office and tell your county magistrate that the emperor of Daliang City in Kyoto ordered the imperial envoy to go to Southern Zhao, and the history of the fourth-level inspection of the 'Jingcheng Division'" If I want to see him within half an hour, he'd better be fully dressed and appear in front of me within half an hour, otherwise don't tell me that I'm going to cause trouble for him."
Everyone in the yard, whether it was Zhao Er, the government servant at the door, or the yarn girl and the female workers in the yarn shop, were all dumbfounded.
As for what kind of official Shao Xi was, they didn't know, and they didn't remember the long list of titles. But they knew that this was a high-ranking official from Kyoto, and this high-ranking official was now going to cause trouble for their Zhao family.
The dozen or so government officials at the door were stunned for a while, then turned to look at Zhao Er nestled in the dye vat, seemingly unsure of what they should do. Zhao Er kept winking at them in the dye vat, asking them to quickly find his distant uncle to rescue him. Only then did the gang of government servants react and crawl away from the yarn shop and run towards the county seat.
Shao Xi turned to look at Zhao Er again, but at this time the smile on his face had disappeared. Instead, he said to Zhao Er with a gloomy face: "Just now, didn't you say that the emperor and I can't control your place? You also said that Yu Jiang The county belongs to your Zhao family. Are you the king here? Unfortunately, I am the person sent by the Holy Emperor. I want to see if this Yujiang County belongs to the Jingyuan Dynasty or your Zhao family? Can the royal laws of the Jingyuan Dynasty control you?"
Zhao Er almost cried when he heard this. Although the Zhao family is indeed powerful and has a deep foundation in Yujiang County, they do dominate here. But if the imperial court really sent officials down, how could they dare to blatantly do so? So, you can’t brag about your awesomeness. If you don’t brag well, you will lose your head. Who said you don’t have to pay taxes for bragging?
Regardless of whether Zhao Er was bragging before, Shao Xi had taken the matter seriously now. Since Zhao Er dares to shout such words, it at least proves that the Zhao family has indeed formed its own small court in Yujiang County, leaving the people with no way to complain and can only endure their bullying and oppression. This matter cannot be said to be related to this. Even the governor of Yuzhou was involved.
It was only then that Shao Xi turned around and walked up to Sha Nu, returning to his previous shameless look with a mean smile.
Sha Nu was immediately overwhelmed by his performance, which was like changing his face in a Sichuan opera. She thought to herself: How could this person change his face so quickly? It doesn't look like the same person at all. In fact, Shaonv's thoughts at this time can be explained in current terms: "Is there something wrong with this person's brain? Is he crazy?"
"Girl, look, I've come here again sincerely. I don't even know your name yet. Sharing names is the beginning of getting to know each other! I already told you that my name is Shao Xi. Can you tell me your name? What is your name?"
Sha Nu still replied calmly: "It's not that I don't want to tell you my name, but my name is Sha Nu. My father was a dyer in this yarn mill back then, and later bought this yarn mill. , has always been run by my own family. I have been spinning, weaving, dyeing and selling yarn with my father since I was a child. Many people think that yarn girl is just what they call me. In fact, my father named me yarn girl back then. .”
Shao Xi suddenly realized that this was what happened! It's like someone asked him what his name was, and he told them Shao Xi, and then they asked him what his name was after he took a break. Isn't this a dumbfounding mistake?
This means that the person speaking is confused, the person listening is confused, and in the end everyone thinks it is the other person’s problem.
"Girl yarn girl, what happened today is all the trouble caused by me, so no matter what happens, I will be responsible for it. It seems that your yarn shop cannot operate normally today. Why don't you close the business for a day and let these female workers work? Go home first! It won’t be too late to start work after all these things are taken care of.”
When Shaonv heard this, she quickly said: "Master Shao, what happened today was all caused by me chasing the ferry at the ferry. You just wanted to fight for injustice. The cause of the matter is me. If there is something that should be borne by my daughter, how can I let it happen?" The young master takes everything on his own shoulders? However, this matter of going out of business..."
Shao Xi saw that the gauze girl was hesitant to close the gauze shop for a day. She remembered that she had mentioned to Boss Weng at the ferry that she was rushing to make a batch of gauze. She thought she was afraid of delaying the delivery time, so she was so hesitant.
"Girl, don't worry about the delivery of cloud yarn. I'm familiar with Taihe Trading Company. I'll go back and say hello to them and ask their caravan to help the girl deliver this batch of cloud yarn to the customer. The time wasted by today's closure is completely You can come back on the way, so please don’t worry about the girl.”
"Are you familiar with Taihe Trading Company? The caravans of Taihe Trading Company are exclusive to the trading company and never transport goods for others. How can you actually hire them? Do you also have business dealings with them?"
Shao Xi saw that Shao Nu was a little doubtful about his words, and knew that it was really difficult to believe it with empty words, so he lowered his head and found the gold medal of Taihe Trading Company from his bag, and handed it to Shao Nu.
"This is……?"
Shaonv looked at Shao Xi in disbelief after receiving the gold medal, because not only was the logo of Taihe Trading Company engraved on the gold medal, but the word "Zhang" was also engraved on the back.
Everyone who is doing business in the world knows Taihe Trading Company, and everyone who knows Taihe Trading Company knows that the big shopkeeper of Taihe Trading Company is named Zhang. So what does the word "Zhang" engraved on the gold medal in Shao Xi's hand mean? This means that Shao Xi has an unusual relationship with the boss of Taihe Trading Company, because there is only one such gold medal in the world.
"Yes, I am friends with Zhang Huanzhi, the chief manager of Taihe Commercial Bank, and he gave me this gold medal. With this gold medal, all the head offices, branches, caravans and banks of Taihe Commercial Bank in the world will treat me no matter what. All requests are answered.”
Seeing that Shao Xi had such a relationship with Taihe Trading Company, Sha Nu no longer had any doubts about Shao Xi's ability to recruit Taihe Trading Company's caravan.
"In this case, let Mr. Shao say that the gauze shop will be closed for one day. It seems that Mr. Shao wants to meet the county magistrate in my gauze shop. I will have the yard and house tidied up. Once that is done, Let them go home."
After saying that, the gauze girl turned around and summoned the female workers in the gauze workshop to tidy up the yard that had just been messed up, cleaned up the spilled dye, and cleaned the room in the main hall of the gauze workshop, and then asked the female workers to get off. Go home from work.
During the whole process, the female workers were walking around the dyeing vat where Zhao Er was hiding, but they didn't dare to clean his vat. They wanted to stay away from it, as if they were avoiding the god of plague.
Shao Xi asked Lao Wu to move a stool from the house and place it under the eaves of the main hall. It was April at this time, and the afternoon sun was still quite bright, so Shao Xi sat in the shade and watched Zhao Erbao bask in the sun in the dye vat. Now that he doesn't say anything, this guy won't dare to come out even if he's beaten to death.
Sha Nu also moved two stools out of the house, handed one to Old Wu, and asked Old Wu to sit down as well. Lao Wu wisely moved the stool to the side, sat at a distance and drank his own small wine, so as not to disturb the conversation between the two of them.
Sitting down next to Shao Xi, Shaonu whispered: "Master Shao, why are you helping me? Is it just to learn that set of movement techniques from me? If it is just to learn that set of movement techniques from me, you don't have to do it at all. Causing yourself so much trouble. Although you just said that you were a high-ranking official from Kyoto, you don't know what Yujiang County has become now! If you offend the Zhao family, I'm afraid you will really get into trouble. ”
"Oh? Can the Zhao family really cover the sky in Yujiang County with just one hand?"
"I don't need to say what Yushui County is like, you have seen it. As for the governor of Yujiang County, I don't know very well, but Yushui County has become like this under his eyes. The official rank can also be imagined.”
"Hmph! It's just that civil servants are not as ruthless as him, and military attachés are not as ruthless as him. Unfortunately, I am neither a civil servant nor a military attache. Want to play gangster with me? They are afraid they will meet a real gangster this time."
