"Order from the prefect of Hangzhou: From now on, all commercial business rights in Hangzhou will be taken over by the government. All merchants, big or small, in Hangzhou must register with the prefectural government. Before July 20, all registered merchants can pay the corresponding operating fees and continue to engage in business operations."

"By July 20, all businesses that have not registered and paid the corresponding operating fees will be deprived of their operating qualifications, and those who violate the law will be punished for disrupting the national law."

At the city gate, a large group of Hangzhou vendors gathered in front of the notice board and read out the contents of the notice.

The notice uses plain language so that everyone can understand it.

After reading the content of the notice, most of the vendors showed panic on their faces.

"What is the prefect doing? Why are you confiscating the business rights of our merchants?"

"How strange! This has never happened in any dynasty. I am afraid that the merchants in Hangzhou will have no way to survive from now on."

"No, Hangzhou is different from other places. The new prefect doesn't know how to do business. We must report to the governor and the governor-general!"

The onlookers were talking about it, and anger was gradually growing and spreading on their frightened faces.

In fact, a similar situation to that at the city gate is happening throughout Hangzhou.

Wherever the prefect's notice was posted, Hangzhou merchants would curse loudly.

Because for these vendors, cutting off their source of income is tantamount to killing their parents!

When rumors spread, it is natural that there will be people with ulterior motives who instigate them.

In less than half a day, a large number of Hangzhou merchants gathered together and headed straight for the prefectural government office in a menacing manner.

However, as the initiator of posting the notice.

Xia Yun, at this moment, has not yet gotten up from the bed.

In a house in the backyard of the prefectural government office.

After resting for a while, Xia Yun let out a long sigh, and clenched his hands unconsciously, and two coquettish sounds were heard beside him.

"My lord, let me rest for a while."

"I really don't have the strength anymore."

There were two women sleeping next to Xia Yun, one of whom was Huang Yuner, who looked a little haggard at the moment.

The other person was given to Xia Yun by Hangzhou officials that day. Her name was Ning Juan.

Both her looks and figure are top-notch.

But at the same time, Ning Juan's face also showed some fatigue.

The reason is simple, it's just that Xia Yun has been busy for nearly seven or eight hours from last night till now.

Except for a short rest in the middle of the night.

At other times, Xia Yun was like a tireless plowing ox, kneading the two women over and over again.

Hearing the two girls begging for mercy, an evil curve gradually appeared on Xia Yun's lips.

That's how men are.

It would have been better if the two girls had not spoken, but their begging for mercy only reignited the fire of desire in Xia Yun's heart.

The next moment, Xia Yun suddenly turned over and without saying anything, put the two women under his crotch again.

Then, bursts of lascivious music were heard again in the house.

It was not until half an hour had passed and the two women cried out in surprise that Xia Yun finally lost his strength.

Just at this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Bang bang bang!

When they heard someone knocking on the door, the two girls looked relieved.

Xia Yun had no choice but to put on his clothes, get up, push open the door and go outside.

I found out that the person coming was Xu Wan'er.

Xia Yun noticed the blush on Xu Wan'er's face and immediately understood something.

"How long have you been waiting outside?"

Xia Yun said deliberately jokingly.

"Not... not long."

The blush on Xu Wan'er's face did not fade, and she stuttered a little when she spoke.

In fact, she had already appeared here a quarter of an hour ago, but Xia Yun was too strong, so she had to wait until now.

"Is there something wrong? Why don't you go in and talk?"

Xia Yun continued to tease Xu Wan'er.

Xu Wan'er took a look inside the house and saw Huang Yun'er and the other girl, naked and lying limp on the bed.

She won't go in!

Xu Wan'er came to her senses and found Xia Yun teasing her, and immediately glared at him fiercely.

"Hangzhou is about to be in chaos! And it's so dishonest!"

Xu Wan'er said unhappily, the blush on her face gradually fading away.

Hearing this, Xia Yun chuckled, then put away his teasing thoughts and looked serious.

After a while, Xia Yun and Xu Wan'er appeared in the court.

"What happened? Tell me."

At this moment, Xia Yun was very serious, completely different from before.

"Notices confiscating business rights are posted all over the city. Now a large number of vendors in Hangzhou have gathered and are on their way to the prefectural government office."

Xu Wan'er directly stated the key point of the matter.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Xia Yun looked quite calm.

It was as if he had expected all this.

"Have you made any progress on the matter I asked you to investigate?"

After a moment's silence in the court, Xia Yun suddenly asked.

What he was talking about, of course, was the pile of dirty accounts in the prefectural government.

"After investigation, we found that the former prefect Chen Dengming's advisor had disappeared before we arrived in Hangzhou."

"Now that Chen Dengming has died on the way, I'm afraid no one can explain the mess of the prefectural government."

Xu Wan'er, who was well prepared, shook her head on the spot.

In the past day, she sent people to secretly search the entire city of Hangzhou, but failed to find Chen Dengming's master.

Missing?

snort!

Xia Yun sneered and shook his head.

Even Chen Dengming died on the way to the capital, let alone a mere legal advisor.

I'm afraid he has already been killed.

Thinking of this, Xia Yun simply gave up investigating the matter.

After all, he didn't come to Zhejiang to check the accounts on behalf of the empress.

He only needed to write a memorial to report the bad debts of the prefectural government to the court.

"What about Dai County? Any news?"

Xia Yun asked immediately.

"Six days ago, the new county magistrate arrived in Dai County, but was quickly controlled by Commander Qin and his men. He is now detained in the county government office and is not allowed to go out. All matters in Dai County are under the jurisdiction of Commander Qin."

As Xu Wan'er spoke, she took out a report sent from Dai County and handed it to Xia Yun.

"Tell Qin Tianye that they did a good job, but ask them to be careful not to kill the new county magistrate unless necessary."

"As long as he stays in the county government office obediently, we will provide him with good food and drink."

After reading the report sent by Dai County, Xia Yun nodded.

Before this, he was really a little worried about Dai County. After all, it was the result of his three years of hard work.

Fortunately, everything is going as planned.

"Also, send letters to all the merchants in Dai County, telling them that I have prepared a place for them to make money in Hangzhou City, and ask them to prepare the money and come here quickly!"

After saying that, Xia Yun closed the report.

Xu Wan'er, who was standing by, was startled at first when she heard this, but soon understood what was going on and a look of admiration appeared on her face.

Although this master of mine is not very serious in that aspect.

But his ideas on business management are far ahead of the rest of the world!
