After his inner voice was read, the little cannon fodder became the darling of the world

Qin Mingyuan had smoke coming out of his mouth and looked in a miserable state.

I have done a lot of bad things, such as raping girls, killing people and robbing goods, and robbing businesses...

He had no idea what incident had angered the gods.

"Dad, I, I don't know!"

"This is a punishment from heaven! The hard work of several generations of the Qin family has been destroyed in your hands, and you still say you don't know?

Misfortune to my family, misfortune to my family! "

Old Master Qin pointed at Qin Mingyuan with trembling hands and slowly fell down.

Qin Mingtao quickly caught him: "Dad! Dad! Brother, look how mad you made Dad!

I advised you to be more restrained before, but you refused to listen. Are you okay now?"

Qin Mingyuan opened his mouth to refute, but finally closed it weakly.

God has punished me, what else can I say?

Guo family residence.

The Guo family has been running the candle business for generations, and almost all the people in Gong County use candles made by the Guo family.

In the past year, the government opened a candle workshop for the children. Because the prices were lower than those of the Guo family, it had a certain impact on the Guo family's business.

To this end, the Guo family used some tricks, and business has only returned to normal in the past month.

Guo Zhigao is busy with business during the day and only returns home in the evening to gather with his family and have dinner together, chatting and laughing.

Mrs. Guo happily served food to her son: "Zhi Gao, you are busy every day, you should eat more."

Guo Zhigao smiled and nodded: "Mom, you should eat more too, don't worry.

The family business has been booming recently, with several big deals in succession. I spent all my family savings on buying raw materials.

This time, I should be able to make a lot of money.”

"Really? Great! Then I can enjoy my life in peace.

I haven't been able to eat or sleep well these days because of business matters. Hearing what you said, I feel relieved.

Humph, those dirty beggars don’t know their own identities, and instead of begging in a proper manner, they actually want to steal our business.

They should be taught a lesson so that they can no longer do their job."

"Don't worry, mother. We have discussed with the heads of the Qin family in the west of the city, the Wu family in the south of the city, and several other families. We will work together to make sure their workshops can no longer operate.

Magistrate Zhang stood up for those stinky beggars, but no matter how capable he is, he can't defeat the four of us.

Now, they can’t sell any of their products and are about to close down.”

"Haha...you deserve it!" Mrs. Guo laughed heartily.

Guo Zhigao also laughed along with Mrs. Guo.

The whole family, young and old, saw them laughing and laughed along.

No matter who looks at it, it is a scene of loving mother, filial children and a harmonious family.

sudden.

A man who looked like a family servant came running in and broke the harmony.

"Master, Madam, something bad has happened, something bad has happened!"

Mrs. Guo’s smile froze on her face.

Guo Zhigao glared at the servant: "What's the matter that requires you to come here and yell at this time? Can't you see that our family is having a meal?"

The servant choked, but still mustered up the courage to say, "Master, something big has happened!"

Madam Guo and Guo Zhigao looked at the servant at the same time: "What happened?"

"The warehouse caught fire, and the fire grew bigger and bigger, and even the workshop caught fire."

"what?"

Mrs. Guo's body shook.

Guo Zhigao rushed out directly.

When we arrived at the scene, we saw that the warehouse and workshop were already a sea of ​​fire. The workers in the workshop were bringing basins of water to pour on the fire.

But candles and raw materials are flammable, just a drop in the bucket. When the water was poured on, it just made a "sizzle" sound and turned into a puff of white mist.

Seeing that all his life's work had gone to waste, Guo Zhigao screamed out of control like a madman.

"What happened? Why did the fire start? Who did it? I will tear him into pieces!"

"It's fire from the sky! Master, it's fire from the sky!" a worker said in horror.

"I came out to relieve myself, and there happened to be a muffled thunder, followed by a ball of fire falling from the sky, heading straight for our warehouse.

With a loud bang, the warehouse caught fire.

Fortunately, I called the brothers in the workshop out, otherwise, everyone would have been burned to death in there."

"Heavenly fire? It's actually heavenly fire! We are being punished by heaven! Haha..."

Guo Zhigao was so angry that he lost his mind and rushed towards the fire waving his arms. Fortunately, the workers held him tightly.

The fire burned until midnight, and not even a drop of candle oil was left except for the mud and stone walls.

Guo Zhigao went crazy, Mrs. Guo fainted, and the Guo family went from making a lot of money to being penniless overnight.

Almost at the same time as the Guo family, the Wu family in the south of the city, the Xiao family and the Jiang family in the north of the city also had accidents...

The ways in which accidents happen are different.

Some were harassed by swarms of snakes, insects, rats and ants, some were robbed by others, some were natural disasters, some were man-made disasters, but without exception, all lost their fortunes.

That night, none of the dozen or so families who had opposed the government's workshop were spared.

It was just daybreak.

The Qin family was the first to get into trouble.

When Mr. Qin regained consciousness, he took out a paper bag wrapped in three layers of oil paper from under a brick in the room.

"Mingyuan, Mingtao, this is 60,000 taels of silver, which is the money I saved for my father and myself to get a coffin.

You should take 20,000 taels first and take the initiative to compensate the 20,000 yuan original capital owed to that family today.

Just say it was a natural disaster and we did not delay delivery on purpose. Please forgive us and let us go.

As for the others, go and sell your workshops and all the houses, shops and farms you have, and see if you can raise enough capital.

As for this house, let’s keep it until the end. If we really can’t keep it, let’s sell it.”

The two brothers took 20,000 taels of silver and were about to go out.

The women and children of the Qin family, who should have gone far away, came back crying at this time.

Old Master Qin was shocked: "Why did you come back? Don't you want to live?"

The two wives cried and said, “We were robbed by a group of people as soon as we left the city, and they didn’t leave us a penny.

Where can we go with our children and no money? We can only come back home, at least we have a home."

"Nest?" Old Master Qin smiled bitterly and waved his hand.

"Forget it, you should go back to your own yard first. Now that things have come to this, there is no escape from the disaster. Let's face it together, whether it's life or death."

Yuelai Inn.

When Nangong Jiu woke up, Nangong Yunxue hurriedly dressed her.

"Jiu'er, we are going to visit the homes of the people in the city today. Do you want to come with us?"

Nangong Jiu blinked and answered irrelevantly: [Mother, did you go to meet the noble family yesterday smoothly? ]

"It went smoothly! The heads of those families all said that they would go to the county government office in person today to discuss business matters with Magistrate Zhang."

[Wow, that's great! I don't have anything important to do, so I'll go with you guys to take a look.]

"Then let's eat first and set off after we're full." Nangong Yunxue handed Nangong Jiu a bun.

"By the way, did you put all the things you bought at the workshop yesterday in your little bag? Is the little bag full?"

Nangong Jiu shook his head: [It can’t be filled up, the bag is really powerful! ]

Nangong Yunxue smiled and nodded.

"So what are you going to do with those things?"
