Chapter 576
"Yeah." Li Mu nodded and grinned, "It's very good. I've sent a message to ask someone to come. There are still people who dare not come. It seems that the foundation behind it is very strong. But I just like to fight head-on. The captain sent a team of people to catch all the people who didn't come. I just said that it was what I said. Whoever dared to protect me was against me, Li Mu. If you have the ability, you should consider it yourself!"
The captain took the order and left, and several tied "big guys" were pressed to kneel on the ground. Fang Yiai took his team members to come in from the road where the imperial guards made way out, replaced the imperial guards who tied the people and escorted these people.
Li Mu saw Li Chengqian at the end of the queue, and was still so dark and thin, but his temperament had quietly changed. Seeing such a scene, he was no longer panicked.
"Everyone, don't panic. Those arrested are all those who commit crimes. If you haven't committed crimes, don't worry." He walked to the tied people, looked at them, and said to Fang Yiai, "The Fang Team is the official, the Chang'an City Management Ordinance, what kind of sentencing law should be the crime they committed?"
Fang Yiai said loudly, "When the Marquis returns to the Marquis, these people have instigated the public to illegally fight against the Chang'an City plan, which has violated the law. According to the management regulations, they should be detained for half a month and fined twenty cents!"
"Detention," Li Mu asked knowingly, "What does detention mean, explain."
"Detention, detention, detention, service, labor service. Half a month of detention means fifteen days of labor service, and you must be imprisoned in prison."
"Oh, then is there any alternative? You see, these people are all well-known, and the street corvee service may not match their identities."
Fang Yiai looked at her eyes and continued to answer, "Report to the Marquis, there is a solution to this problem in the law. Detention is less than three months, and it is considered a minor offender. Those who commit less than five months of detention can be replaced by silver and money. The standard is to calculate ten trump cards every day. For their crimes, only if no one pays 150 trump cards can be exempted from the crime. However, if they commit again within one year, the two crimes will be punished together, and the detention and fines will be doubled."
"Is there such a good thing?" Li Mu looked down at one of them and said, "Brother, what do you think? Are you planning to detain or pay the money?"
This man was so scared that he fought two people, but 170 stakes were not a small amount of money for him. Although he had a yard of land as his territory and had a lot of investments every year, he also needed to manage his own affairs. There was still a rogue under his command to expect him to have a meal, but in fact, not many of them fell into his pocket, 170 stakes, which really hurt.
"If you offend the Marquis, we will accept the punishment, but this one hundred and seventy cents is too much. Marquis, can you lose some--"
“Less?”
"Hey, less."
"Bang!" A big mouth made the man stagger and spit out a mouthful of blood. Everyone was frightened, and they all staggered their sights and dared not speak.
"Lower? I can't afford it, so don't offend me. If I offend me, I still want to bargain? Are you doing business with you?" Li Mu spat and said, "I tell you that I can collect your money today is kind. I also think of your first offense. The next time I will offend me again, I will throw you under the Baqiao to feed the fish. I will say it will be true. If you don't believe it, you can try it!"
No one dared to speak, Li Mu snorted and continued, "This is the first thing, the second thing is to tell you. From today on, there will be no territorial saying in the city of Chang'an City. Those who follow me will prosper, and those who go against me will perish. No matter who the power behind you is, you are a dragon, you are a tiger, and you are a bully, you are a bully, you are a bully, you are a bully, you are a bully, you are a bully, you are a bully, you are a bully, you are a must listen to me, and all interests will be allocated by me."
Still no one said anything. When they first heard this, everyone thought Li Mu was crazy, but after thinking about it, he did have this strength. This is a person who had just promoted the new policy, which made the five surnames and Qiwang and all the officials of the court unable to do anything about him. Who can stop him? Even if there is someone behind him, who is his opponent?
"From now on, the 108 yards of Chang'an City need to be uniformly dispatched. What are the interests? They will also be uniformly divided to avoid internal consumption."
"You all know that I am from the Ministry of Works. The Ministry of Works is the yamen for building houses. Doing things is the same as building a house. The focus is on building a tall building on the ground. Whether the foundation is stable or not, how to build a house is just a knowledge."
"Most houses have three bays, meaning the heaven, earth, and man. Two beams are added in the middle, plus the front beam, and the back beam are four beams, with each beam having one column at both ends. In this way, eight columns also represent all four directions. Three bays, four beams, and eight columns form the foundation of a house, which is called "four beams and eight columns."
"In the future, the same is true for Chang'an City. The east and west cities are divided into half, two beams, four pillars, one beam, and two pillars, and are in charge of affairs. Above the four beams and eight pillars, there are three talents in heaven, earth, man and others, who are in charge of affairs. Above the three talents, there is a dragon leader, and everyone must be the main leader and not disobey. Those who violate the dragon head will be punished together."
"Today, I will meet you with all my brothers and I will notify you of this news. Three days later, I will recommend the four pillars and eight pillars again. In these three days, you can contact each other and fight for yourself. You can also find a way to get rid of me, so that you will still be the same as before and do not have to be controlled by me. I will give you time, but in three days, if I am still standing here, it is imperative. If you oppose me again, you will be dead and no one can save you!"
After saying that, Li Mu waved his hand and the imperial guards made a way out. "I'm done, you guys go."
The bosses of the whole house stood up silently, and there was no one talking. They were already a little stupid because of the impact. Who can bear the sudden change? After eating for more than ten years, they smashed the rice bowl and broke the ground. They couldn't even pick it up. Who can accept this!
Everyone had the heart to kill Li Mu, but they were helpless, and they couldn't do it. This mixed sense of helplessness almost made them mentally collapse. Many people's feet became weak when they walked out of Jingdongji.
Fang Yiai begs the people tied up to collect the money. Li Mu also told them that those who did not come today would beat them up and fine them double the fine. It would be fined to destroy their power, and there is no need to kill them all. If they have brains and have accumulated money, they can still be rich, but if they don’t have brains and want to resist stubbornly, then throw them into the river to feed the fish, there is nothing to say.
Everyone dispersed, Bai Naoer welcomed Li Mu into the grocery store for tea, and Ergou was also with him. Bai Naoer felt itchy and couldn't help it. She watched Li Mu put down the teacup, rubbed his hands and asked, "Good son-in-law, you just said Longtou-I don't know, do you have any arrangements?"
Li Mu looked at him and deliberately said, "I said everything, of course there is."
"Then I--"
"Father-in-law, do you look in the mirror and feel like a faucet?"
