Wang Yu was even more respectful of Du Qi. He said, "Wang Yu admires Young Master Du's foresight. Wang Yu is willing to follow Young Master Du's arrangements. "
Du Qi waved his hand and said, "Let's go. Make haste."
"Yes!"
Wang Yu nodded and replied.
Du Qi left a few soldiers to guard the Wang Family and let Wang Yu and Wang Qiao lead the way to the residences of the Five Families and Seven Hopes in Yanmen City. That night, Du Qi and his men knocked on the doors one by one and killed their way in.
Du Qi's killing was very particular.
The Imperial Army soldiers led by Du Qi only killed the guards of the big families. The leaders of the big families were all killed by Wang Yu or Wang Qiao, so that the two of them could only stand on Du Qi's side.
In order to survive, Wang Yu and Wang Qiao could only do it even if they were unwilling. In the end, after a night of killing, the leaders of the big families in Yanmen City who were originally invited by Wang Zongxi were all killed because of Wang Yu and Wang Qiao.
Everyone was dead.
After the killing, the soldiers moved all the corpses to the Wang Family's residence.
When dawn came, Du Qi went to see Du Ruhui and told him the following arrangements. Even Du Ruhui was surprised because Du Qi had killed everyone in the Wang Family, including the people of the Five Families and Seven Hopes.
Du Ruhui's expression became serious.
Du Qi's killing intent was too strong.
Du Ruhui didn't think that it was a problem at first, and he had never encountered such a problem. But now, Du Ruhui felt that something was wrong.
Du Ruhui looked at Du Qi and said, "Erlang, your operation tonight has completely taken care of Wang Zongxi and the masters of the Five Clans and Seven Clans who were hiding within the Gate of Yanmen. But I want to remind you of a few things. "
Du Qi said, "Father, please speak."
Du Ruhui said, "No matter what, I hope that you can stay true to your heart. Don't think that everything can be solved through killing. Once you become addicted to killing and are unable to extricate yourself, the consequences will be unimaginable. Therefore, I hope that you will stay true to your heart and not forget your original intention. "
Du Qi smiled and said, "Don't worry father, your son understands. To his son, killing was nothing more than a means. Furthermore, it's also because Wang Zongxi and the people of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes are extremely ruthless to begin with. That's why I stopped killing with killing. "
"Father, according to what Wang Yu and Wang Qiao said, if I hadn't taken action last night, Wang Zongxi would have ordered his subordinates to set fire to our tea shops, restaurants, and storehouses. Moreover, they would have affected the commoners' houses."
"Think about it. Once the city is on fire, countless people's houses will be on fire, and this fire will start from our family's property. When the time comes, how will father deal with it? "
"People like Wang Zongxi have always been unscrupulous and disregarded everything. Therefore, we do not need to show them any mercy. Your son is very clear about what he is doing. He will not kill the innocent. "
Du Qi's words were clear and concise.
Moreover, he was extremely rational.
Du Ruhui heaved a sigh of relief and said, "It's good that you understand."
Du Qi said, "Father, quickly arrange for people to deal with the Wang family and the other major families. This matter must be announced as soon as possible and preemptively strike first. Once Wang Zongxi's crimes are confirmed, everything will be easy to handle. "
Du Ruhui did not delay any longer and immediately arranged for Xu Youwen to lead the team to quickly move the corpses.
After handing the matter over to Du Ruhui, Du Qi returned to his own courtyard.
Wang Yu and Wang Qiao were both there.
The two of them now only had respect and fear for Du Qi.
Du Qi said, "Everything has been taken care of. It's time for you to return. This young master will wait for news of your return to the Wang family. I hope you won't disappoint me. "
"Yes!"
Wang Yu and Wang Qiao responded at the same time.
Du Qi waved his hand, and Wang Yu and Wang Qiao left together.
The two of them left in a carriage, unwilling to stay for a moment longer. In the carriage, Wang Yu and Wang Qiao sat opposite each other.
Wang Qiao said with a look of lingering fear, "Wang Yu, how should we explain it when we return? According to Du Qi, we were sent out to do something and avoided the calamity because we did not participate at that time. But this might not be trustworthy. "
Wang Yu said, "What trust? What we want is obedience. With the strength of our two families and the current losses of Wang Zongzhou and Wang Zongxi's direct descendants, we can win. Now, we are strong enough to win. "
After a pause, Wang Yu continued, "So, we have nothing to fear. After we return, we will gather the forces of the compromise faction and say that Wang Zongxi and Du Qi were enemies and were killed in the end. We should not be enemies with Du Qi anymore. This way, there will naturally be people who will support us. As for those who disobey orders, don't you think we can't even do that? "
Wang Qiao said, "I understand."
Wang Yu said, "It's good that you understand."
In truth, after Wang Yu and Wang Qiao returned to the Wang family, the two of them used the power of the peace faction to easily seize power. Wang Yu became the Wang family's patriarch while Wang Qiao assisted Wang Yu. The two of them quickly seized power.
This news reached Gate Yanmen. After Du Qi learned of it, he did not care. Instead, he quietly observed the changes and waited for the other five families and seven gazes to make a move. However, time passed, and it was now August, but there was still no news.
The five families and seven gazes acted as if their people had not died and did not send anyone else.
In truth, Du Qi had obtained some information from Wang Yu. The Lu family and the Cui family had sent people to Taiyuan to inquire about the matter of their families being killed. However, Wang Yu's response was mainly based on official propaganda. Moreover, he had been sent out at the time and did not know the exact situation, using the excuse that he did not ask.
Even if the great families had their suspicions, they ultimately let it go.
It was now September, and the autumn wind began to blow.
The weather gradually turned cold.
The weather started to get colder, especially in areas like Gate Yanmen. Because it was closer to the north, it got colder earlier. September was a cool and refreshing season in the Jiangnan area. However, it was already quite cold in Gate Yanmen.
At this time, down jacket shops started to open in Gate Yanmen.
The appearance of down jackets caused a commotion.
Although there were down jackets in Chang 'an and even around Chang' an, there were no down jacket shops at the border of Daizhou. Now that they had appeared, countless people started to chase after them.
Countless people flocked to them like ducks.
Countless people liked down jackets.
It was to the point that every household was proud of having a down jacket, thinking that it was something to be proud of.
Du Qi did not pay much attention to business matters. All his thoughts were now on the bank. Because he had been busy dealing with the five families and seven gazes, Du Qi had not set up a bank.
Moreover, the preparation of the bank was not something that could be completed in a day or two. Du Qi and Jin Wuque busied themselves for a while to settle the various aspects of the bank.
Most importantly, after operating in the north for the past few months, many merchants in the north had already acknowledged Du Qi. They also knew about Du Qi's huge industrial chain. This made Du Qi even more influential in the eyes of the merchants.
This was extremely helpful.
At this time, Du Qi was ready to open for business. After all, Du Qi had already chosen the location of the bank in Gate Yanmen.
