"Okay, let's all sit down."
Zhao Jie pressed his hand and went to sit at the head of the opposite door.
"My lord, you asked us to come this time. I don't know what it is?"
The first person to speak was a big man with a beard, and this person was Cao Tongda, the leader of the Four Seas Clan.
The beautiful woman in palace makeup on the left is Zhu Yan, the leader of the Green Bamboo Gang.
Opposite him is Gui Shanhai, the head of the Shenquan Sect, known as Shenquan Invincible.
In addition, it is Hu Yanzan, the leader of the Cao Gang.
The four are divided into the four major urban areas of the state capital, east, west, north, south, and there are more than a thousand people under them, and their influence can be said to be deeply entrenched.
"I came to you this time to tell you. The intensity of recent crimes is not enough."
Zhao Jie took a sip of tea and said lightly.
"not enough?"
Cao Tongda, the head of the Four Seas Gang, frowned and said, "Lord Zhao, the crime rate in the four major urban areas has soared recently, more than ten times higher than before. If it continues to increase, won't it cause Su Ying to counterattack?"
"That's right. Those small gangs were uprooted a few days ago. This is obviously a warning and reminder for us."
Zhao Jie heard the words and smiled coldly: "What? Are you afraid?"
The four looked at each other, but none of them spoke.
They are gang organizations, and Zhao Jie is a member of the government, since ancient times, people have not fought with officials.
No matter how powerful they are, no matter how many people they have, it is impossible to compete with the imperial court.
So for Zhao Jie's request, they had no choice but to agree.
"I'm not afraid of us. I just heard that Su Ying has the backing of the three princesses of the court. If he is cornered and the court army is attracted, how many heads do we have to chop off?"
Gui Shanhai, the master of Shenquan sect, said expressionlessly.
"Don't worry about this matter, I have already contacted the master of Hell Gate."
Speaking of this, Zhao Jie did not continue to say more.
On the other hand, the expressions of the four changed.
"Master Zhao, the Gate of Hell is a cult that is strictly prohibited by the imperial court. It is an organization of killers. As the deputy commander of the Zhenfu Division, you are trading with you. Maybe something is wrong with this?"
"Hmph, that Su Ying was arrogant and lawless as soon as he came up. The nine families under my command will either be arrested or abolished."
When Zhao Jie said this, his expression almost twisted: "Su Ying and I, either he dies or I die. Do you think there is any way out?"
After a pause, Zhao Jie's expression eased, and he said lightly: "Once Su Ying dies, the imperial court will definitely not be able to continue to send new commanders. At that time, I will be able to take over in a legitimate way. With me as the commander, the four of you Only the gang can continue to do business in Qingzhou Prefecture stably, and it will grow bigger...otherwise..."
Speaking of this, Zhao Jie glanced at the four of them coldly, and said lightly: "Think about it yourself."
As soon as the voice fell, he got up and opened the door to leave.
Chapter 144 This official likes to raid homes!
"Master Su, good afternoon."
In the afternoon, when Su Ying returned to her mansion, she saw Hou Hou trimming and pruning in the garden.
Seeing Su Ying approaching, she immediately stepped forward to salute, Guazi's face was pale and rosy, and there was a gentle smile in her eyes.
Ever since she came to Su Ying, Wan Hou is no longer the little witch she used to be. Instead, she has the appearance of a gentle lady, which makes people feel pity.
"Is there anything to eat? I'm a little hungry."
Su Ying nodded and smiled slightly.
"Eat? Yes."
Wan Wan blinked, and looked at Su Ying with winking eyes: "My lord, do you think I'm delicious?"
Su Ying was teased by her like this, and a nameless anger suddenly rose in Su Ying's stomach.
But his face was still full of sternness, and he looked up at the sunlight in the sky: "Ahem, it's broad daylight..."
"It's okay, I'll take care of you. I haven't seen you for a few days, I miss you very much. The food is delicious."
"Then I can't spare you!"
As soon as the words fell, Su Ying dodged, picked up Houhou, and quickly disappeared into the room.
.......
It was almost time for lunch, so Su Ying walked out of the room contentedly.
Jiang Mingyue came over with a stack of account books, Su Ying quickly stopped him, and sat down directly at the stone table in the yard.
"Why does your lord smell like sister Wanwan?"
She twitched her nose, frowned and asked, "Where did sister Wanwan go?"
"No."
Hearing this, Su Ying wondered in her heart why these girls have such sensitive noses?
But he still looked puzzled.
"I was still here just now, why is there no one in the blink of an eye. Regardless of her, let's talk about you first."
Jiang Mingyue nodded without doubting him, and put the account book on the table.
"All the bookstores in the state capital were bought by Yuejia's Tongyuan Bookstore, and all of them were published in the novels of adults. However, the state capital is too big, and Yuejia didn't care much about the business of the bookstore before, so there was a shortage of manpower for a while."
"Insufficient manpower?"
Su Ying frowned: "You find enough people yourself to spread out all the bookstore business in the state capital as soon as possible. Otherwise, if other places find out, there may be pirated copies."
"Piracy?"
Jiang Mingyue frowned slightly when she heard the words: "Who dares to steal your lord's version?"
In her perception, Su Ying is now one of the best figures in the entire Qingzhou Mansion, who would dare to snatch his business and make him suffer?
"Not necessarily."
Su Ying waved his hands, coughed twice, and said sternly: "Don't talk about me. Some great masters also steal if they say they want to steal. We have them here, but not in other places, so not only should the entire Qingzhou market be paved Open, but also to seize the market of other state capitals as soon as possible..."
"My lord is right."
Jiang Mingyue nodded, with a smile on her face: "The business of our bookstore is very good now, and the Yue family is already earning from ear to ear. In addition, the Yue family has also recruited dozens of Qingzhou Academy of Arts to write novels Talented scholars who specialize in writing about adults, under the leadership of Dou Po Cangqiong, all sell well."
"Is anyone still writing novels these days?"
Su Ying's expression froze for a moment, didn't he know that writing novels is a dead end?
"That's right. That Miss Yue is also a person who knows how to do business. She goes to many places in person."
Jiang Mingyue praised it.
Su Ying nodded, it seemed that he had to find a chance to thank Yue Mingxian.
"After deducting expenses from all the income, all the dividends from the adults have been deposited in the Tongtian Bank of the Daxia Royal Family. A total of 150 million taels of gold."
"150 taels of gold?"
Su Ying's heart skipped a beat when he heard that.
How long has it been?
He earned more than 1000 million taels of silver. It seems that writing novels is indeed a sharp weapon for making money!
If this calculation goes on, won't my own small goals throughout the year be directly accomplished?
Moreover, there are several million taels of gold under the Wujiang Dragon Palace. With his current wealth, can't he be called "Su Bancheng?"
"But my lord, what is the content of the follow-up story?"
Jiang Mingyue tentatively asked: "Many people have read it more than a dozen times, but they are all waiting. I heard from Miss Yue that a teacher at the Qingzhou Martial Arts Academy knew that this book was written by an adult, and it was not satisfying to read it all at once. I still have to come to Zhenfusi Yamen to look for you..."
"What do you want me to do? Send me blades?"
Su Ying snorted coldly, and then his complexion eased: "Forget it, I will write hundreds of thousands of words in a few days. Those big bosses from the province came to the Fusi Yamen to look for me. Hey, I am really too busy recently, and I will write it later. After the moths in Zhenfusi's yamen are cleaned up, I will work harder! I promise!"
Jiang Mingyue blinked her eyes, and said playfully, "Uh, actually, you don't need to work too hard...the longer they wait, the more attractive we will be..."
"Mingyue, this is your fault. Those readers are our food and clothing parents. Treating our food and clothing parents is the same as treating your majesty today. We must be grateful and in awe..."
Su Ying looked at her, and reminded earnestly: "Print and distribute all the rest in your hands."
"Yes, my lord..."
......
After he left, Wan Wan came behind Su Ying in a flash, hugged his neck, looked at Jiang Mingyue's leaving back, and exhaled like a rand.
"My lord, I think Miss Jiang is also very interesting to you, she is so beautiful, and sister Qiushuang, oh, 婠婠, Qiushuang, Mingyue...Three daughters serve one husband together, it feels exciting to think about it." Woolen cloth."
"..."
Su Ying's complexion turned dark, pinched her pretty face, and said seriously: "I am a dedicated person, once a night, one at a time..."
Even though he said that, in fact, he secretly said happily in his heart.
"You don't know, there is a fairy, and a barbarian little princess..."
But with my strong body, five at a time is not a problem, right?
Su Ying was replaying exciting and voluptuous scenes in her mind, when suddenly her ears moved.
"Report to Master Su, there are people outside the door asking to see you."
At this moment, a maid suddenly came to report.
"Who?"
The little maid thought for a while, and immediately said: "It's from the Yue family, the Shi family and the Huang family. There are also some rich merchants in the city, escort agencies, pawnshops, and martial arts people. Everyone has brought a big box. The door can hardly be crowded. gone."
"Is it a gift?"
Su Ying frowned slightly, thought for a while, and said to the little maid, "Go and take care of the records, and then give me a list."
"Yes, my lord."
