Chapter 8800 Here Comes
The Wang family in Zaohua Town.

Wang Lingzhi, the master of the Wang family, led a group of people to the front hall.

There is a place dedicated to entertaining distinguished guests.

Regardless of whether the visitor is real or not, he has already told them to treat him well, so he must not be neglected.

"Brother Wang, it's really Luo Fengtang who came here, how do you treat him?"

The high-handed Zifeng said suddenly.

"It's even more important to treat him well. What kind of person is the general, our royal family can't afford to offend him."

Wang Lingzhi was taken aback for a moment, and then replied.

Before, he had been thinking about how the visitor was fake, but he had somewhat ignored the fact that the visitor was real, and how he would deal with it.

People like General Luo always come to Zaohua Town to visit the Wang family?What is his intention?
He thought about it and was terrified.

In case... Luo Fengtang came here with the purpose of destroying the Wang family, what would he do?

After thinking about it, that kind of thinking is a bit wrong.

If they really want to deal with the Wang family, they will directly bring a team of troops to block the exit leading to the outside of the Wang family's house, and then break in through the main entrance.

None of the members of the Wang family can escape!
The more Wang Lingzhi thought about it, the more confused he became. Before he knew it, he had brought a group of people to the hall outside.

After stepping in, he swept his eyes and inevitably noticed the man sitting on the chair.

The man looks very handsome, mature and stable, with the demeanor of a master.

He sat casually, with his waist straight, and he looked like he was from the ranks of the army, and his every move showed traces of careful and strict training.

Even if this person is not Luo Fengtang, he must be an officer in the army!

That kind of temperament cannot be acted out.

"Wang Lingzhi, how long are you going to hoard your cotton?"

As soon as the man met, he said something with a solemn face.

Wang Lingzhi seemed to be struck by lightning, and his whole body seemed to be hit by a dull hammer.

Come on, this is the rhythm of invoking the teacher as soon as you come.

"Are you General Luo?" After all, Wang Lingzhi was well-informed, and he tried to calm down and asked.

"Bold! Master Hou asked, but you didn't answer properly?"

With a sip, it was like a thunderclap.

A man nearby couldn't see anything special when he was sitting, but when he stood up, Wang Lingzhi noticed that this man was like an iron tower, almost a head taller than him.

This is really a "giant" person.

Duan Zifeng put his finger on the sword hilt at his waist, took a step forward, and stood in front of Wang Ling.

Wang Lingzhi only had superficial fist and kick skills, if he was really attacked, he was powerless to fight back.

"Who are you?"

Wang Lingzhi was a little annoyed.

The identity has not yet been determined, a servant who dares to yell at him is simply unknown.

"My humble Ding Ye, the former elder of the Yuansu League, now he has turned his back on the dark and turned to the bright, and is already a pawn of the Marquis. Hmph, are you not convinced? If I scold you, you have to bear it."

Ding Ye sneered.

Just because he is convinced by Luo Fengtang does not mean that he is also convinced by others.

Especially a country gentleman like Wang Lingzhi who doesn't have much martial arts skills is nothing in his eyes. He has slapped such a person not once or twice.

According to his understanding, this kind of person is often a cheap bone. As long as he is severely whipped, this kind of person will not only not be angry, but will kneel down more thoroughly.

Conversely, if there is too much respect for this kind of person, this kind of person will bite back and make people stunned.

Elder of the Yuansu League, Ding Ye...

Wang Lingzhi quickly weighed over and over again in his mind, and he immediately bowed down to salute.

"I met the general at Xiaomin Wangling's tomb, and I met Elder Ding."

He has already guessed that the "Luo Fengtang" in front of him is the real Luo Fengtang, not fake at all.

"sit down."

Luo Fengtang said lightly.

"Yes." Wang Lingzhi winked, making Duan Zifeng take two steps back.

Since it can be confirmed that the person who came is the real Luo Fengtang, then there is no way for them to be unfavorable to Luo Fengtang.

"It's still the same problem, Wang Lingzhi, you are a Juren. It stands to reason that you should know Daqilu. This is not to say that cotton cannot be hoarded, but the time and quantity of hoarding are stipulated by Daqilu. Your behavior, It has violated the Great Qi Law!"

Luo Fengtang tapped his fingers on the table and said slowly one word at a time.

The Daqi Law stipulates that large-scale hoarding of important materials related to the national economy and people's livelihood is not allowed.

This has been established since the time of Qi Taizu.

In this regard, Taizu Qi was indeed a strange person, and he had already made proper arrangements in advance.

But the descendants of later generations did not strictly abide by the laws of Daqi.

Just like hoarding, now the whole Daqi, who else is willing to abide by the rules? The country gentry, landlords and businessmen are all hoarding, and the local officials are also turning a blind eye, pretending not to see, and talking to each other. Between them, a tacit understanding was reached.

However, the rules still exist after all!

As long as Luo Fengtang takes out the rules, coupled with his almost invincible combat power and great prestige, the rules that can be slack can be turned into a noose to hang people.

"Master Hou, our Wang family has been wronged. It's not that I want to hoard goods on purpose. In fact, I can't sell them."

Wang Lingzhi complained.

Now he can only find excuses to cover up, otherwise, how can he get away with it!
"I checked with someone. It's not that your cotton can't be sold, it's because your price is too high." Luo Fengtang said coldly.

In fact, deep down in his heart, he didn't like this kind of hoarding squire. Even though Wang Lingzhi didn't do any obvious evil things on the surface, his behavior of hoarding was enough to cause many ordinary people to suffer.

Fortunately, what he was hoarding was cotton, not grain and salt, and there was still room for change, otherwise Luo Fengtang would not come to the door, he would just send arresters, soldiers, directly to arrest people.

"Hou Ye Mingjian, the Wang family's asking price is really not high. It's because our principal of buying cotton is too high. We don't want to lose money."

Wang Lingzhi turned his head to Yu Feipeng who was standing beside him and said: "Feipeng, go and get the cotton account and show it to Lord Hou. Be quick and don't delay."

"Yes! Master." Yu Feipeng hurriedly left at a faster speed, and then the room fell into an awkward silence.

Luo Fengtang was drinking tea, he didn't say a word, just kept silent.

But it was this silence that gave people even more pressure.

Not long after, beads of sweat oozed from Wang Lingzhi's forehead, and his back was also soaked in sweat.

Every bit of time that followed was a torment for him.

After finally hearing the footsteps from outside, Wang Lingzhi stood up as if he was about to receive an amnesty, and shouted, "Fei Peng, are you alright?"

"Master, here we come."

Yu Feipeng hurried in from the outside.

He was a little fat, and hadn't exercised for a long time. This time, he ran at a faster speed, which made him out of breath, and he almost missed his breath.

He clutched his aching abdomen and carefully placed the ledger on the table.
