Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 657 Shocking He Wuqi

Sitting at the table by the window was Di Renjie.

As if he didn't hear Shicai's conversation, he looked out the window leisurely.

He Wuqi swaggered over with his bodyguards.

Suddenly, with a flash in front of their eyes, three big men were already lying in front of them.

He Wuqi was startled, and took a step back subconsciously: "What are you doing?"

The three big men are Wang Mang, Zhang Huan and Li Lang.

Wang Mang said coldly, "What are you going to do?"

He Wuqi looked at Wang Mang as if he were looking at some monster.

Suddenly, he smiled, shook his head slightly, waved at the bodyguard behind him, and said impatiently: "Throw them out!"

A bodyguard stepped forward and said: "Boy, know the territory clearly. If you are sensible, get out!"

Wang Mang sneered, and suddenly, he spun his body, kicked up and landed on the bodyguard's chin, the bodyguard let out a scream, flew backwards, fell heavily on the table, and smashed the table to pieces.

He Wuqi was shocked, and shouted sharply: "Brothers, go to me and kill them!"

The bodyguards rushed forward screaming.

Suddenly, there was a loud "boom" behind him.

He Wuqi and the bodyguards only felt that everyone in the teahouse had stood up. They were startled, and when they looked back, they were so frightened that they were half short.

There were forty or fifty of them standing darkly all around. All of them were dressed in hard clothes, with steel knives on their waists, and glared at them fiercely. The leaders were the military leaders Shen Tao and Xiao Bao.

It turned out that these people were all Qianniuwei who had changed into casual clothes. They had been sitting in the teahouse just now, and when they saw Wang Mang making a move, they stood up and made a threatening gesture.

He Wuqi had never seen such a large formation before, and his face turned pale with fright.

He took two steps back and forced himself to calm down: "You, who are you? What do you want to do?"

Everyone looked at him coldly without saying a word.

Wang Mang gently raised his hand, and the guards slowly pulled out the steel knives at their waists, and suddenly the air-conditioning in the teahouse was overwhelming.

He Wuqi felt cold all over and couldn't help shivering.

The few bodyguards behind were even more frightened, "Crackling.

Di Renjie at the table turned his head, coughed lightly, and slowly said to Wang Mang, "Jing Yang, call him over."

Wang Mang snorted softly, and said sharply to He Wuqi, "Get out!"

He Wuqi came to Di Renjie tremblingly.

Di Renjie didn't even look at him, he pointed to the chair opposite and said, "Sit down."

He Wuqi sat down obediently.

Di Renjie glanced at him and said, "Your name is He Wuqi?"

He Wuqi was still in shock, so he nodded quickly.

Di Renjie said slowly: "My name is Huaiying. I am waiting here for you today because I want to tell you one thing: I have taken a fancy to the wharf in Xuyi. From now on, every time you buy a batch of private salt from outside, you Give me half."

Di Renjie's voice was not high, but there was an undoubted calmness.

He Wuqi was startled and said, "Split, half?"

Di Renjie said: "Yes, I will pay you one hundred Wen per bucket more than your purchase price."

He Wuqi tentatively said: "Brother, you must let me go back and discuss it?"

Di Renjie said blankly: "Listen clearly, I'm not here to discuss with you."

Seeing that He Wuqi was too soft, he bluffed and said loudly: "I, He Wuqi, have been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and I am not scared. Even if you want to occupy the docks and distribute private salt, you have to make sense .”

Di Renjie's voice was surprisingly calm, which made people feel terrified: "This afternoon, I went to the Hejia Salt House to pick up salt. If there is no one, you can close the door!"

After speaking, he stood up and walked out of the teahouse. Wang Mang waved his hand, and Zhang Huan, Li Lang and other followers followed him.

Throw a stunned He Wuqi on the spot.

He watched Di Renjie and Wang Mang walking out of the teahouse in a mighty manner, and murmured: "Hey, what the hell is going on?"

Back in the guest room, Di Renjie, Wang Mang and Zeng Tai couldn't help laughing at each other.

Zeng Tai clapped his hands and said: "He Wuqi must be Zhang Er King Kong who can't figure it out at this time. Even if he thinks about it, he won't know where you, a big man with hundreds of entourages, came from and why he fell in love with you." His place."

Di Renjie said with a smile: "This guy is taking advantage of the national calamity to hoard and make a lot of ill-gotten gains. Let him know what it means to be afraid today!"

Wang Mang said with a smile: "To deal with a person like He Wuqi, you have to frighten him at once."

Di Renjie nodded with a smile.

At this time, Zeng Tai said: "Master, the next step has been arranged according to your plan. The sale of Changping salt is just outside the gate of Tongqu Inn."

Before the words finished, Di Chun and Zhang Huan walked in.

Di Renjie asked: "Have the guards' quarters been arranged?"

Di Chun said: "Don't worry, master, I have booked the entire inn."

Di Renjie said: "Okay, Zhang Huan, order the guards to go to the He Family Salt House to pick up salt!"

Zhang Huan replied loudly: "Yes!"

Wang Mang and Zeng Tai looked at each other and laughed.

……

Ho Garden.

He Wuqi had already returned home, and was pacing up and down the hall anxiously, like a caged animal.

Suddenly, hurried footsteps sounded outside, He Wuqi stopped and looked towards the door.

The butler, He Jing, ran in and said, "Master, the shopkeeper of Yanhao is now outside the door, saying that he has something to see!"

He Wuqi hurriedly said, "Quick, tell him to come in."

He Jing ran out, and after a while, the shopkeeper burst into the door full of sweat and said, "Fifth Master, it's not good!"

He Wuqi asked: "What's the matter, did those people go to Yanhao?"

The shopkeeper nodded and said: "Exactly, about a hundred or so people rushed to the salt store just now, drove away the people who lined up to buy salt, loaded all the ten stones of salt left in the warehouse into the carriage, and finally left 3000 taels of silver and left."

He Wuqi jumped up when he heard the words, slapped the shopkeeper severely, and cursed: "What did I tell you? When they come, you say that there is no salt in the warehouse!"

The shopkeeper said with a sad face: "These people are fierce and domineering, and they can't be underestimated. They rushed into the storeroom and carried the salt away. There is no way for the small ones!"

He Wuqi was trembling with anger, pointed at the shopkeeper's nose and said, "You, you..."

He Jing broke the siege and said: "Master, it's not his fault. We run the salt shop, can others not sell the salt when they come to buy it? I just don't know what these people are going to do when they buy our salt."

Just as He Wuqi was about to speak, the door was knocked open again, and a guy from Yanhao rushed in: "Fifth Master, Fifth Master, go and have a look!"

He Wuqi asked: "What's the matter?"

The man said: "The street is bombed!"

He Wuqi scolded: "What blew up the nest? Make it clear!"

The clerk took a few breaths and said, "Those people transported the salt from our Salt Company to the Tongqu Inn. In front of the inn, they hung up a sign and set up a cloth shed..."

He Wuqi said anxiously: "Why are you so talkative! What are you doing with the cloth shed? Tell me!"

The man shouted: "Sell salt!"

He Wuqi was quite surprised: "Sell, sell salt?"

The man said: "That's right. Our salt sells for five hundred yuan a bucket, but others only sell it at the price of ordinary salt - twenty yuan a bucket. Now the people in the city are rushing there like the tide!"

He Wuqi murmured: "Twenty cents and one bucket, this is a complete loss of money. Why did the surname Huai do this? Could it be that he lost his mind and went crazy?!"

Suddenly, he slapped his hands and exclaimed, "Not good!"
