Chapter 1119 Are you urban management or bandits? (Part 2)
The merchants and people who were watching were also dumbfounded.
Disturbing social order, affecting East Market trade, reducing imperial tax revenue, and undermining national stability...
It was just a fight, and no one died. Are you planning to arrest all these people and behead them?
Is this an urban management officer or a bandit?
Too cruel...
The people in "Skylark Tower" were even more stunned. The old shopkeeper couldn't believe it. Such a big crime was probably enough to kill the nine tribes, but just because of a fight, he was charged with it?
"Cheng Canjun, you are wronged! It was the Zhang family who came to stir up trouble first, how can you blame the old man?" The old shopkeeper reasoned about his official career.
Cheng Wuting ignored it and asked with his eyes wide open: "Did the handyman servants at Yunque Tower participate in the fight under your instructions? It's useless for you to deny it. With so many neighbors watching, how can I allow you to deny it! Since you You are the mastermind, so don’t talk nonsense. Should you go to the Yamen with me, or will I ask someone to take you there?”
The old shopkeeper knew that this guy was unreasonable, so he stopped making excuses. He looked at Zhang Shentie's miserable condition and wisely said, "You don't need to worry about joining the army, I can just go away."
Cheng Wu nodded with satisfaction, turned around and ordered: "Arrest all those involved in the fight and bring them to justice. We will make a decision after a detailed review. From now on, both 'Yunque Tower' and Zhang's Charcoal Store will be closed for rectification and will not be allowed to operate!"
The old shopkeeper was almost angry to death and said quickly: "Cheng Canjun, this Skylark Tower is the property of Shen Guogong Mansion. Even if the old man is guilty, it is only the old man's fault. How can he implicate the Skylark Tower? Please ask Cheng The Duke of Shen will be extremely grateful if you join the army.”
"Yunque Tower" is the signature restaurant in Dongshi, and the business is booming. If it is forced to close down, not to mention the huge losses, how can the Shen Guogong Mansion lose its face?
I have to mention the name of Shen Guogong Gao Shilian, hoping to persuade Cheng Service to serve...
Cheng Wuting frowned and asked, "Have you not read the "Several Regulations on Chang'an Market Rectification" issued by the urban management?"
The old shopkeeper looked confused. What is this weird name?
Cheng Wuting saw that the old shopkeeper seemed to have never seen the "regulations" concocted by the governor, and asked the people around him: "Didn't you say that all the merchants and shops in the east and west cities have distributed it? Are you slacking off in your duties and not distributing it?" Go down?”
A clerk next to him was startled and said hurriedly: "How could it be possible? Beizhi had distributed the goods long ago, especially to the hundreds of shops in the East City. Beizhi personally supervised and supervised them, and there was no omission!"
As he said that, he turned to the old shopkeeper and said angrily: "Your family has management regulations that I personally came to issue. How dare you say you haven't read it?"
The old shopkeeper said to himself that I really hadn't seen it, but this official did have some impression... He looked back at the steward behind him. The steward had an embarrassed look on his face. He stepped forward and whispered in his ear: "Then What...that regulation, you threw it into a charcoal pot and burned it on the day it was issued. You said that thing was set up for ordinary merchants and our family has no need..."
The old shopkeeper then remembered, but he was right. As long as the Gao family of Duke Shen's mansion does not rebel, which crime can be pinned on our family?
But now, looking at the situation in front of us, I'm afraid the Gao family's reputation is really not easy to use...
Not only does Fang Jun have a stick himself, why are all the recruits he recruits also a stick? Facing a top dignitary like Duke Shen, he didn't show any respect at all. It was simply abominable!
However, he did not dare to refute at this time. He could only tell the steward to go back to the house quickly and inform the owner of the house, and he followed obediently to the Urban Management Office.
Cheng Wuting ordered his men to expel the guests and servants from the two shops, close the doors tightly and put seals on them...
*****
The "Skylark Tower" incident spread quickly in Dongshi.
Everyone was surprised that the Zhang family was extremely arrogant and dared to fight against the Gao family. At the same time, they were also aware of the power of the "Urban Management Bureau". After all, behind the "Skylark Tower" is Shen Guogong Gao Shilian, a transcendent figure who Queen Changsun also wanted to call "uncle"...
At the same time, all the shops and businesses also hurriedly ran back to rummage through their boxes and cabinets to find the damn regulations that were issued to each store on the day the "Urban Management Bureau" was established. At the beginning, no one cared what the "Urban Management Bureau" was, so they naturally regarded the regulations as if they were useless paper.
When I found it and read it carefully, I suddenly took a breath of air.
I saw that the "Several Regulations on Chang'an Market Rectification" was extremely detailed. It regulated the Chang'an market from many aspects such as health, public security, taxation, measurement, quality, etc. It was extremely strict!
The most ridiculous thing is that there are only two ways to deal with this regulation-detention and fines.
Detention is enough. For example, in today's conflict between the Zhang family and the Gao family, if someone is injured, someone will naturally bear the consequences of violating the laws of the Tang Dynasty. But the amount of the fine...
It’s simply jaw-dropping!
"Those who litter everywhere will be ordered to clean up all the sanitation in the market where they live for three days, and will be fined 500 guan..."
"Those who spit will be fined one hundred guan..."
"If you are short of a pound or less, you will be ordered to suspend business for more than ten days for rectification, and be fined one thousand guan..."
"Those who gather to cause trouble shall be detained for ten days to one month, depending on their circumstances, and shall also be fined one thousand guan to 10,000 guan..."
"Those who drive up prices will be fined more than 50,000 yuan, with no upper limit, and their business qualifications will be revoked..."
All the shopkeepers were dumbfounded.
If there is a fight for no reason, it is very likely to go bankrupt...
And there is a fine for spitting. Fang Jun, how short of money are you...
If this regulation is implemented without leaving any room for error, then the entire Dongshi City will be comparable to heaven on earth!
There is no garbage everywhere, no fighting, no shortage of money, no cheating, everyone talks and laughs, coexists peacefully and builds a beautiful market... I guess the holy land of Huaxu in "Liezi·Huangdi" is nothing more than this. ?
This is simply impossible to implement!
But when they saw the big red seal at the end of the regulations, everyone fell silent.
The emperor's personal seal!
This is like an imperial decree. Who dares to disobey it?
All the merchants couldn't help but shudder...
The old shopkeeper of "Yunque Tower" was taken to the "Urban Management Department" in Dongshi.
Although they were both fighting, the treatment of the old shopkeeper and Zhang Shentie was obviously different. After all, the old shopkeeper is also an old man from the Shen Guogong Mansion. The rules of the Jingzhao Mansion and the regulations of the Urban Management Department must be strictly implemented, but the face that should be taken care of must still be taken care of. After all, he is a member of the Gao family, so Cheng Wuting showed mercy.
As for Zhang Shentie... he was taken directly to the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, and all the Zhang family members were imprisoned.
The Zhang family has no face at all in Jingzhao Mansion.
It would be good if Jingzhao Yin Fangjun didn't take the initiative to cause trouble for the Zhang family. How dare an official under Jingzhao Mansion secretly facilitate the Zhang family?
Are you looking for death...
After a while, a visitor from the Gao family arrived at the "Urban Management Office". It was Gao Shenxing, the fifth son of Gao Shilian and the current head of the Household Department.
Gao Shilian had six sons. The eldest son, Gao Shicheng, married Princess Dongyang, the daughter of His Majesty Li Er. As a consort, he naturally would not stand up for a domestic slave.
The second and third sons are working in other places. The fourth son, Gao Zhenxing, was almost beaten to death by Fang Jun. The family would not let him come to the "Urban Management Bureau" to recruit people under any circumstances. Depending on Gao Zhenxing's fiery temper and his old grudge with Fang Jun, they might get into a fight, lest someone else is not fished out by then, but another one comes in instead...
Only Wuzi Gao Shenxing could come forward.
Gao Shenxing arrived at the "Urban Management Bureau", and the person who received him was not Cheng Wuting, but the new chief official of the "Urban Management Bureau", Du Chuke.
Gao Shenxing hurried forward to greet him: "I have met Mr. Shanshi."
"Shanshi" is Du Chuke's nickname, and most people call him "Mr. Shanshi".
Du Chuke advocated extraordinary moral integrity in his youth, and gained a reputation for talent when he grew up. He once served as the governor of Puzhou and was known for his majesty and integrity. Later, he was impeached and removed from office. His Majesty Li Er appointed him as the chief historian of the Wei Palace.
Gao Shenxing naturally recognized this outstanding figure in Guanzhong.
It's just that Du Chuke, the good minister of Prince Wei's palace, Shi Bugan, why did he come to attack Fang Jun?
Du Chuke's face was as steely and expressionless. He just nodded slightly and said, "Since it is Wu Lang who came forward, I can't be too harsh. The fight between your family and the Zhang family in the busy city has been extremely bad, especially for After the Urban Management Bureau issued management regulations, not severely punishing them is not enough to warn the latter, and I hope Wulang will be considerate. ”
This is to maintain the authority of the "Urban Management Bureau", and Gao Shenxing naturally understands.
"Juniors understand."
"Since you understand, it's best. According to the regulations, those who gather to cause trouble will be fined from 1,000 to 10,000 guan. 'Skylark Tower' is a first-time offender. This official website will set the minimum fine of 1,000 guan as the minimum fine." Just pay the money quickly and take the person away.”
Du Chuke said.
"Thank you, Mr. Yamashita. I will pay the fine now."
Gao Shenxing is a steady person by nature. He bows his hands slightly and salutes, and his tone is gentle and courteous.
Du Chuke waved his hand: "Go."
The high judge bowed and bowed, retreated, and went to the check-in room nearby to pay the fine.
Not long after, Gao Shenxing turned back again.
The warmth on his face disappeared, replaced by an angry look, and he said angrily: "Why did Mr. Shanshi lie to me? Why did the official who was doing the work say that he wanted 12,000 guan?"
Du Chuke was stunned for a moment, and then said matter-of-factly: "There are a total of twelve people involved in the fights and troubles in your house. No one has a thousand guan, so it is only 12,000 guan. What's wrong?"
What's wrong?
Gao Shenxing almost died of anger!
It's just a fight, a fine of 12,000 guan?
Why pay a fine? Why don't you just grab it?
Of course, those who are close to red are red and those who are close to ink are black. I think that the dignified and fair Mr. Shanshi also followed Fang Jun's stick and learned bad things!
