Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 14: Storm


"Oh?" The well-dressed servant looked up and down Wufeng and his party in surprise, feeling that this party's imposing manner is extraordinary, and I'm afraid he can't accept it, so he hastily bowed respectfully, please Wu Feng and his party sat down, then smiled and said: "Guest officer, please have tea first, and the young ones will immediately invite the shopkeeper to come out."

In the blink of an eye, a middle-aged man came out from the back door. He was dressed in fur and had a haughty expression on his face. He looked like a man in charge.

"Several, why don't you come to my account to buy some goods?" Although the middle-aged man is a bit arrogant, he has good eyesight. , but the aura exuded from his body is rare even after he has been in business for decades. Even though the two young handsome men behind him are hardly comparable in character, they can only stand still, and he hastily made a bow.

"Well, I heard from Little Willy that your account has a good reputation, so I want to take a look." Wufeng didn't want to waste too much time in such a place.

"Oh, I don't know which type you want, sir? Male or female?" The middle-aged man was very polite.

"I just want to find a few servants who can watch the door and guard the house, clean the house, and maids who can serve people with tea and water. I have a female family member." Wu Feng replied lightly, but let the woman behind him disguise himself as a man A red glow rose on the face of the second daughter, this female family member naturally refers to the second daughter, hearing Wufeng say this, the second daughter felt both ashamed and happy.

Especially that Gu Yunxia, ​​who has heard of Wufeng's name for a long time, and after traveling with her for the past few days, Wufeng's witty conversation, handsome appearance, especially that concealed and unrevealed aura, all of them are indistinguishable. It aroused waves of ripples in her girl's heart, but seeing that Qin Shuangying beside her also looked crazy about her, she naturally couldn't reveal it.

"Oh, it's like this. Male servants such as porters, handymen, coachmen and even housekeepers that the husband needs can be provided, and I believe they can satisfy the husband. It's just that as a husband, the maids needed by the family members Huan must have very high requirements, and I’m afraid it’s hard to see what I’m offering. In my opinion, sir, why don’t you go to Fair Square to take a look. Recently, there are a lot of goods purchased there, and there are a lot of female slaves. The price can also fluctuate. I don’t know how to respect it How?" The middle-aged man suggested neither humble nor overbearing.

Wu Feng was a little surprised. Merchants have always tried their best to do business in their own hands, but they didn't expect this company to push the business to other companies, which is really puzzling.

Seeing the astonishment on Wufeng's and his party's faces, the middle-aged man explained with a smile: "You are all distinguished customers. My name is based on reputation, and I don't care about one or two orders. If it ruins the reputation of my firm, then But the gain outweighs the loss. Therefore, my boss has already stipulated that if the customer's requirements cannot be met, they would rather not do the business than ruin their reputation."

"Yes, my lord, this Southern firm is the most reputable company in the entire industry, and I, Little Willy, never lied to you." Little Willy also echoed.

Wufeng looked the whole store up and down, nodded slightly, "Alright, let's take a look at your male slaves first."

This southern firm was quite neat and tidy. After a while, Wufeng picked out a few capable slaves, negotiated a price and paid the money before leaving. The middle-aged man was delivered to the door, and finally delivered A piece of exquisite incense, Wu Feng took it casually and took a look, there was a line of strong characters on it: Nanfang Business Name---Murongxuan.

"This is my boss's business card. He happens to be away today. I hope to have a chance to meet." The middle-aged man said with a smile.

Wu Feng froze, this guy's eyes are really sharp, he can see that his status is ordinary, he nodded thoughtfully, and went out.

After a hasty lunch, Wufeng returned to the mansion with a few guards, and the five slaves who accompanied him began to clean and tidy up under the command of the guards. The guards and slaves couldn't complete the cleaning work for a while, so Wufeng had to ask 20 guards to come from the inn outside the city to help, and Song Tianxiong led several guards to accompany Qin Gu. The second daughter, led by Little Willy, went to Fair Square to buy a maid, and bought furniture and other daily necessities by the way.

Furniture and other items were quickly brought to the door by enthusiastic businessmen. Song Tianxiong had a good eye. A set of sandalwood study supplies cost Wufeng 800 gold coins, but it was very much in Wufeng's heart.

Seeing that everyone was busy, Wu Feng sat in the newly furnished study room with peace of mind, leisurely flipping through the few books left by the previous master. What the previous owner left behind were a few books on history and geography. Judging from the appearance of the books, the owner seemed to be quite diligent, with annotations left in many places.

After flipping through the books for a while, Wufeng casually picked up the business card that the middle-aged man from the Southern Company gave him in the morning, a faint scent of ambergris slowly came out, using ambergris as incense, this Murong Xuan is really extravagant. I heard that the Murong family is only at the bottom of the list of the seven great families in the south of the Yangtze River. It seems that the famous families in the south of the Yangtze River are really extravagant. Half of the empire's annual tax revenue comes from the Jiangnan region, especially the wealth of Jiangnan, which alone is enough to make the people of Jiangnan proud.

Thinking of Jiangnan, Wufeng's thoughts drifted to Huayumei and his party who were on the road. Maybe they have already entered the territory of Wuhu at this moment, and they will return to Songjiang in a few days. It is really difficult for her. Only go back once a year. Guan Yingying also returned to Hejian, and she became a loner. She really should take advantage of this time to eat Qin Shuangying, if it wasn't for Gu Yunxia's sabotage last night, she might have already succeeded. By the way, tonight you can enjoy Angel's unlimited youth, and the delicate body that has been cared for for almost a year is probably more plump and mature. Thinking of this, Wufeng's restless heart couldn't help beating violently.

A burst of hurried footsteps woke Wufeng from his contemplation. Before he could react, a thin figure had already rushed into the study, "My lord, my lord, it's not good!"

Wufeng frowned, and before he could speak, the little Willy who ran in had already yelled in panic: "My lord, please go and have a look, something happened at Fair Square."

The two guards who came in after them saluted and briefly narrated what happened. It turns out that the second daughter of Qin Gu and Song Tianxiong came to Fair Square early under the leadership of Little Willie. Recently, many family members of criminal officials have been assigned as official slaves, and their family servants have been sent to the Fair Square. After being sent to this fair place, people who got the news came to this fair place to pan for gold, so the business of the fair place boomed for a while. Although Qin and Gu's two daughters went there early, because of the good business, the fair square adopted the method of auction to sell Some slaves with excellent quality and appearance are used for auction, so that all buyers can participate in the auction.

Originally, the second daughter wanted to buy only a few maids without participating in the auction, so she wanted to choose two maids at random. Unexpectedly, Little Willy encouraged the second daughter to participate in the auction, and the second daughter came anyway. It's good to participate in the auction, but I really fell in love with two female slaves who are in good condition in all aspects, so I bought them by auction. Who knew that there was a conflict with another group of auctioneers, and now they are in a stalemate in the Fair Square No more.

After listening to the introduction, Wufeng calmly looked at the instigator of the incident, "Who are those people from?"

"I heard from acquaintances in the workshop that he is Viscount Matt, the nephew of the Duke of Sidon, the Minister of Justice of the Empire. No one in the workshop can afford to provoke him." The little guy said with a pale face, apparently he did not expect to provoke such a big trouble.

"Where are Tianxiong and the others?"

"Boss Song and several other brothers are still there, let's come back and report to your lord first." The two guards were also full of anger.

"Well, then let's go and see who this so-called Viscount Matt is." Wufeng stretched lazily, "Well, I haven't been active for a long time, I hope you don't let me Disappointed."

Hearing Wufeng's words, the two guards couldn't help being excited, and hurriedly went out to greet their partners, but Little Willy hadn't reacted yet.

Since the fair square is located in the northeast of the imperial capital, there is still a considerable distance from where Wufeng is. Fortunately, Little Willie is very familiar with the path, and it took an hour to arrive at the entrance of the fair square after walking through the streets and alleys. , At this time, I could hear the constant shouting inside, and the outside was already full of people, even a few policemen in black and strong clothes were standing outside the door.

Wufeng saw that there was a patrol outside the door, and knew that the police station had already intervened, which meant that something must have gone wrong inside, so he had to give up his idea of ​​making a fuss.

Wu Feng pulled the saddle off his horse and approached the gate, but was stopped by several patrolmen. The patrols are all people who have seen the world for a long time. Once they saw Wufeng's aura, they knew that they had encountered a difficult person. Although they blocked Wufeng's way, they were still very polite, saying that the government was handling the case inside, and idlers were not allowed to enter.

Wufeng waved his hand to stop the guards who were about to attack, and kindly told the patrols that one of the parties involved was his subordinate ~IndoMTL.com~ He wanted to go in and see what was going on.

A policeman hurriedly asked Wufeng to wait, and then ran into the door to ask the leader of the team for instructions. The leader of the team was a sheriff, and he was feeling a headache. Viscount Matt was an old man. Relying on his aristocratic status and his uncle's relationship, he was arrogant and domineering, and he didn't pay attention to the local security department at all. , together with the same group of cronies and dog friends, often cause trouble. Today is good, I met a thorn, not only did not take advantage of it, but was turned over by the other party, I checked the other party's background, the first two were actually two civilians disguised as men, but the few people behind her But they are soldiers, and one of them is actually a mid-level officer with the rank of admiral. Obviously, these two women with equal names have extraordinary backgrounds.

It can be said that the group led by Viscount Matt suffered a loss, so of course they refused to give up, and asked themselves to take the group to the police station for interrogation, which made him feel embarrassed. Fortunately, there are soldiers here, and I can use the excuse that the soldiers disturbed local security and hand it over to the gendarmerie. At this time, he heard his subordinates say that the boss of this side had already arrived and asked to come in. The sheriff couldn't help complaining secretly. This would make the matter more complicated. Neither side is easy to use. It seems that it is definitely not capable of being competent.

According to the laws of the empire, in view of the complicated public security situation in the imperial capital, the local security of the imperial capital is managed by three departments. The security of the imperial city, that is, the inner city and its surroundings, is in charge of the Imperial Habayashi Army, while the security of other places is in charge of the Imperial City Police Department, and the Imperial Gendarmerie Headquarters is in charge of dealing with the disturbance of local security by soldiers. There are eight police stations under the Imperial Capital Police Station, namely the East District Police Station, South District Police Station, West District Police Station, North District Police Station, Northeast Police Station, Northwest Police Station, Southwest Police Station, and Southeast Police Station. It is under the jurisdiction of the Northeast Police Department.
