Chapter 940 The first confrontation between Xun Yu and Li Mengxi(2/2)
Soon, the physical evidence was brought in, and the officials looked at it carefully. They found it was out of order and in a mess.
Xun Yu's identification is self-defeating.
The shopkeeper proved his innocence, and the officials followed the procedure and prepared to settle the case.
At this time, Xun You came up and pointed at the shopkeeper and scolded him coldly, "Don't think you can hide it for a while. If you put up a flag and advertise it in Julu Commercial House, it's false, but it's true to lead the rebellion!"
Turning to the interrogating officials, Xun Ou bowed his hands to the officials and said, "Please Shangguan, please arrest this person and torture him severely. The general will thank you greatly!"
The shopkeeper became furious when he heard this, "Why do you think you are so innocent?
Papermaking is difficult, and I can't bear to use it at home. My lord Liu Xuande, thinking of the prosperous culture, specially ordered us to transport the paper thousands of miles to Luoyang to benefit the world's scholars!
It’s just that you don’t show sympathy for my good intentions. If you want to take over my business, just say so, why bother looking for excuses!”
The shopkeeper's eyes were about to burst. He clenched his fists and pressed towards Xun He with arrogant teeth and gnashing his teeth, "Who are you? Dare you say that I am a thief?! My lord can tolerate this humiliation, but I can't!"
"Come on, let me die now to prove my innocence! My lord will come to you to seek justice!"
As he said that, the shopkeeper rushed towards a pillar and hit it with his head.
When the matter got serious, the interrogating official was unable to stop him, and he fainted as he watched the shopkeeper hit the pillar.
Xun Huo and Cao Cao looked at each other in shock.
After the shock, I felt admiration.
Both Xun You and Cao Cao knew that the Julu people were really plotting, but they couldn't produce enough evidence to identify it. Liu Xuande left a reputation in Luoyang City for his remonstrances. Unexpectedly, Xiao Xiaoyi, the shop owner under Liu Xuande, was also fierce.
Like Si, Xun Hui and Cao Cao were silent in their hearts.
——
Xun You and Cao Cao's attack on Julu Commercial House is over for the time being.
Let’s talk about the shopkeeper who hit the pillar. He was carried back and woke up not long after. The shopkeeper was very smart and didn’t want to hit himself to death.
After waking up, regardless of the aching pain in his forehead, the shopkeeper quickly mobilized manpower to make arrangements.
First of all, the shopkeeper sent someone to inform the officials, saying that the business had been targeted and framed, and he did not dare to do it for fear of getting into trouble. He would be back soon. The officials asked who was so bold, and the messenger
Keep silent.
This is, first hand.
Then, public opinion started.
When Jian Yong established Julu Commercial House, he left a team of public opinion personnel, and now these public opinion personnel are playing a role.
Rumors began to spread throughout the city.
Somehow the people on the streets had heard that the Julu Store opened by Liu Bei and Liu Xuande had offended others. Seeing Liu Xuande's prosperous paper sales, they wanted to take over their business and throw dirty water on them.
If it is just a business dispute and has nothing to do with the vital interests of the people, the people can at most curse Liu Bei.
But then, the people heard that the money for the free school established by the imperial court not long ago was provided by the imperial court, but the books and paper were provided by Liu Bei. They heard that Julu Commercial House was squeezed out and could no longer stand, and they planned to
gone.
Once the store is gone, there will be no paper left for the volunteers.
The people couldn't help but yell and curse at that villain.
Rumors spread again that it was a man named Xun You who was causing trouble. The common people talked privately and angrily called Xun You by name.
Xun or Xun Wenruo became famous all over the city at once.
The shopkeeper mobilized the third hand and found the great scholar Cai Yong. Cai Yong was one of the assistants Li Mengxi entrusted to Julu Commercial House.
The shopkeeper sent half a cart of paper to Cai Yong, saying that Julu Commercial Store had been slandered by Xun He and he might not be able to stay there any longer, or would move out of Luoyang soon. The shopkeeper said warmly that in the future, if there was a shortage of paper or money, he would be short of paper and money.
Just give Lu Zhihui a message and it will be enough. The charity school was started with great difficulty, so we cannot let all the efforts go to waste.
As soon as the shopkeeper's counterattack came out, a thunder strike was formed.
First of all, as for the imperial court, the officials had made a lot of money from the paper business. Anyone who dared to touch the Julu Commercial House would be cutting off everyone's financial resources. How could the officials agree?
Public opinion can be either big or small. If it's big, it could kill someone, but if it's small, it doesn't matter.
As for Cai Yong, Cai Yong was a scholar leader. Cai Yong didn't have much real power, but he had a great reputation.
The pressure came to Xun or.
Xun or heard the people on the roadside calling him Xun Wenruo by name, Xun or left with a gloomy face and covered his face.
Not to mention this, Cai Yong came for him. In front of Cai Yong, Xun He also had to perform the courtesy of a junior. Cai Yong scolded Xun He.
Pressure from the imperial court also came. The Xun family was a well-known family in Yingchuan, and officials would not take any drastic measures against Xun. However, many officials secretly came to insinuate that Julu Commercial House would not rebel.
Xun or Menqing, this is because the officials are helping Julu Commercial House and Liu Xuande.
People outside were scolding him, Xun Wenruo, and Xun Wenruo did not dare to go out. He had no way to defend himself, so he could only endure it for a while and retaliate later.
Xun perhaps locked himself in the house and prepared to hide for a while.
After analysis, there is no doubt that there is something wrong with the Julu Commercial Store. The shopkeeper was trying to make progress by retreating when he disagreed.
The hundreds of officials who helped Liu Bei must have colluded with each other, but Xun may not know what the collusion of interests was.
As soon as the incident happened that day, rumors started to spread in Luoyang City the next day. If it was said that this was not weird, Xun or Daoshi would not believe it. There must be a masterpiece of Julu Merchant Store hidden in Luoyang City. In one day, rumors spread all over the city.
It's really awesome.
What made Xun or feel most aggrieved was that Cai Yong, a highly respected senior, reprimanded him for a long time. Cai Yong could no longer get involved with Julu Commercial House.
Cao Cao hurriedly came to Xun Yu and asked whether he would like to invite the general to read Liu Bei's book again.
It's totally unnecessary. If you move too slowly, even if you go to report to Your Majesty now, the blame will be brought to the side of the general.
Cao Cao looked at Xun Yu hesitantly, "Wen Ruo, I heard someone yelling and cursing on the road..."
Needless to say, Cao Cao also knew who the people were scolding.
"...Wonderful!" Xun You smiled bitterly, helpless.
If Xun or Xun Wen are people of extraordinary intelligence, they can come out to fool around. If they want to talk about power, they are resourceful and useless.
Luoyang, not Yingchuan.
——
Afterwards, Xun Yue carefully studied the collected paper flags and cracked the Julu Army's flag system.
It turns out that the paper flags are made up of twelve zodiac signs. Every twelve, add a pattern. One pattern can be arranged in twelve orders. Two patterns can be one hundred and forty-four, and three can be one thousand and seven.
One hundred and twenty-eight, four is twenty thousand, seven hundred and thirty-six.
With only four pictures, the guiding flag can be led directly from Luoyang to Yingchuan.
Also, on the flagpole, there are distinctions between those that are wrapped with grass, those that are wrapped with cloth, those that are not wrapped with grass, or those that are wrapped with both grass and cloth. Each type of flagpole is a road. There are seven or eight types of flagpoles that can guide the seven or eight roads.
Army.
Xun or once again counted the number of all the paper flags, and then rearranged them according to the flag formation method of the Julu Army based on the number and distribution area of the paper flags.
After spending several days, Xun Yucai could only lay down the flags of two villages and towns. They were so complex and detailed, as well as large and complex, that it was breathtaking.
"...Wonderful!" Xun Yue sighed.
The efforts of Xun Yu and Cao Cao were somewhat effective. The two of them promoted a law that prohibited the random posting of papers.
This decree is obviously aimed at Julu Commercial House.
Well, the first advertising law in history was born.
