Gu Qing is still unfamiliar with this world, and he has never even walked out of the mountain village. So he tried not to violate the laws of the Tang Dynasty. He must abide by the rules of the game no matter when and where he is, unless he has strong strength to change the rules.

If you have to violate the rules, you must also violate them secretly. God will not know it and cannot leave a message to others.

However, Gu Qing thought it was better to deal with the two guys who came to spy on the pottery kiln tonight, because it was someone else who violated the rules of the game first.

At noon the next day, a dozen villagers carried two simple stretchers made of cloth strips and wooden sticks into Qingcheng County.

Gu Qing did not show up, and the villagers carried the stretcher into the city and separated, and carried the stretcher to the front of the two shops, Longchangji and Xinglongji. The villagers did not say a word, put down the stretcher and quickly disappeared into the crowd. The shop's servant did not react, and there were only two people who were covering their legs and crying sadly in front of the door.

Half an hour later, Hao Donglai hurried over in Xinglongji shop and carefully observed the friend who had his legs broken in front of Xinglongji door. He entered the shop with a gloomy face and silently met Shi Daxing. The two entered the secret room of the inner hall.

"I heard that there was a guy with his legs broken in front of your Longchang Ji door?" Shi Daxing asked with a calm face.

Hao Donglai didn't say a word, but closed his eyes and calmed down.

Shi Daxing sneered on his face: "What a young man, he really underestimated him, his methods are so cruel."

Turning his head to look at Hao Donglai, Shi Daxing said slowly: "There is something you don't know yet. When I first met Gu Qing, he sold me a pair of brothers. After bargaining, he paid thirty cents. There was also a document that the two brothers voluntarily demoted to slaves. Guess who the brothers were?"

Hao Donglai still didn't say anything, but his eyes were opened. It was obvious that Shi Daxing's topic aroused his interest.

"That pair of brothers was once a famous bully in Shiqiao Village. They bullied men and women to occupy farmland and did everything they could. There were several villagers who were abandoned by the two brothers. Because of their infamousness, the villagers dared not speak out and let them bully them. Unexpectedly, one day, the young man named Gu Qing suddenly changed his temperament and attacked the two brothers. After two conflicts, the two brothers were locked in a woodshed by Gu Qing and beat them every day. After tortured them to the point of being unbearable, they simply sold them to me for a discount of 30 yuan..."

Hao Donglai's face changed, and he pursed his lips and didn't know what he was thinking.

Shi Daxing said again: "These are all told by the two brothers. I really don't know whether to sympathize with them or hate them. I have been doing evil for many years and ended up in such retribution. Now they are still locked in the woodshed behind the shop. They still have to be beaten once a day. After grinding their temperament, they will see if they can be used."

After sighing slowly, Shi Daxing said, "Although Gu Qing's son is young, his nature is so vicious and his methods are so cruel that Shi only sees him in his life. This son... is extraordinary."

Hao Donglai finally spoke and sighed before he could speak: "We took a wrong step."

"Hmm?" Shi Daxing smiled.

"I was careless and thought he was just an ordinary farmer boy. He got somewhere else and burned pottery. Of course, he had never done any inquiries and sent someone to spy on the secret recipe. This step was wrong. If I had learned about his character and methods in advance, I would not have been so rash."

Shi Daxing sneered: "Who told me last time that he disdained to be with me, a person with a bad mind, but turned around and sent someone to spy on the secret recipe. If the person with a bad mind is wrong, Fatty Hao, you are much better than me. I am at least open-minded than you, but you are a gentleman in front of you and secretly beat him behind your back. People like you are really terrible."

Hao Donglai remained calm: "A villain is a good person. Since he is a businessman, he admits that he is a villain. It is understandable for a villain to do anything. What is the point of saying this? You and I are just the same kind of person. Now we have to think about how to take the next step."

Shi Daxing's smile gradually faded, he closed his eyes and pondered for a while, and said, "He broke the leg of the friend we sent today and threw it at the door of our shop. He didn't say a word and went to the door to investigate. Those people left the friend and left. What is the deep meaning of Gu Qing's move?"

Hao Donglai frowned: "Warning? Declare war? Kill the chicken to warn the monkey?"

"What is his right to declare war on us?" Shi Daxing thought for a long time and said slowly: "Maybe...he is just warning us?"

Hao Donglai looked at him: "Can you still do the business of pottery kilns?"

Shi Daxing smiled with a smile: "Patient Hao, are you starting to be fooled by me again? What do you mean?"

"If this happens, with that boy Gu Qing's character, it is difficult for him to trust us anymore..." Hao Donglai looked up, his fat face full of sincerity: "Or, we will withdraw the members at the same time and stop doing it. Let that boy Gu Qing play by himself. I don't believe who else in Qingcheng County dares to take his business besides you and me."

Shi Daxing was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Patient Hao, your ability to be scheming has become more and more diligent over the years. Haha, if Shi is a young boy who has never seen the world? Save the effort and be scheming in front of Gu Qing. This is useless to come in front of me. I have to settle Gu Qing's pottery. If I can't spy on the secret recipe, I will work with him honestly. At least before spy on the secret recipe, I will keep honest."

"This is not like your personality. You have always been domineering in business operations. If you can, you can grab it. Why don't you just send more people to occupy Gu Qing's pottery kiln?"

Shi Daxing sneered: "We are businessmen, not officials. Daliang of the Ming Dynasty sent people to rob pottery kilns. Am I not afraid of the king's law? Although County Magistrate Huang treats us on the surface, he always looks down on businessmen in his heart. If I dare to make a big deal, County Magistrate Huang will definitely not forgive me. Fatty Hao, you are more courageous than me, why don't you try to occupy his pottery kiln?"

Hao Donglai's face was gloomy in an instant, he snorted angrily and stood up, and without even saying goodbye, he left.

The two of them have a lot of grudges. If it weren't for the sake of profit, they wouldn't be willing to say a word to each other.

When Shi Daxing saw Hao Donglai leaving, he also stood up, dressed up, ordered his friend to prepare gifts, boarded a carriage and hurried out to travel outside the city.

As soon as he left the city gate of Qingcheng County, a carriage rushed over from behind. Shi Daxing lifted the curtain of the carriage and suddenly found Hao Donglai sitting on another carriage. Hao Donglai also happened to lift the curtain of the carriage. The two met instantly, and they looked at it for a thousand years.

Hao Donglai was shocked and angry, as if he had caught her husband's cheating wife: "You are so despicable! You go to find Gu Qing on your back! I didn't expect you to be such a person!"

Shi Daxing was also furious: "Is it different for you to leave the city in a carriage? Bah! Shameless!"

The two of them threw off the curtains with tacit understanding and rushed to Shiqiao Village like strangers.
