Enter school?
Father Zhao and the second child looked at each other, a little confused. At first glance, the boss's words seemed a bit ridiculous. But if you think about it carefully, it makes sense.
Everyone in the world knows that reading is good. But at the same time, studying is also a very expensive thing. In the past, my family was poor, so naturally I never thought of letting Zhao Gouer study. But now that the boss has brought back several hundred guan, it is not impossible to support the dog to study.
"Brother's kindness, we appreciate it. Although we have money now to send the dog to school, it is your money after all. You still have to start a family, marry a wife and have children, and these expenses are not small. Let's forget it. Anyway, we There has never been a scholar in our family for generations. As it is now, it is quite good." The second child interjected from the side.
The dog's eyes, which had just brightened up, dimmed again at his father's words, and he lowered his head as if he had resigned himself to his fate.
Father Zhao also echoed: "Yes, although our family is rich now, we are weak. We don't reveal our wealth. If people know that our family is rich, evil spirits may come to ask for it. One more thing It’s better to have one less thing to worry about and forget about studying.”
Brother Zhao patted his depressed nephew on the shoulder and spoke confidently: "Dad, second brother, there is something we haven't had time to tell you yet."
"What's the matter?" Father Zhao was a little strange.
Brother Zhao was in high spirits, with confidence on his face, and said with a smile: "When we come back this time, we are not just going home. We came back with orders. Now our grain chief is no longer the one named Li. No, it’s me!”
After hearing what the boss said, both Father Zhao and the second child had expressions of disbelief and disbelief.
But the two of them also knew that there was no need for the boss to lie to them with such words...Does that mean that what the boss said might be true?
If the boss really becomes the grain chief here, then the Zhao family will be truly prosperous!
Seeing this, Brother Zhao reached out and took out the official certificate of the grain chief from his arms. He opened it and placed it in front of the two of them. He pointed with his thick fingers and said, "This is the official certificate appointed by the county government."
Although Mr. Zhao and Mr. Zhao are illiterate, they know that the square red square on the official certificate should be the official seal. That is to say, is this official certificate genuine? The two looked at it again and again, and at the same time raised their heads to look at Boss Zhao, overjoyed!
However, after a few breaths, Father Zhao reached out and wiped his face vigorously. The rough palm rubbed against his face and caused slight pain, but he didn't care at all. He said quietly: "You have become the grain chief, what about the Li family now?"
Boss Zhao chuckled, carefully put away his official certificate, and said nonchalantly: "What does his matter have to do with us?"
Father Zhao did not agree with the boss's words. He slowly shook his head and retorted: "The rabbit is in a hurry and wants to bite people. What's more, the Li family is basically a jackal. Will he willingly hand over the position of grain chief? Can’t see it!”
Father Zhao's expression was a little solemn. This matter is naturally a great good thing for the Zhao family. But for the Li family, it was simply a disaster.
The Li family has served as grain chief for many years, and has long been deeply rooted in the local area. It has huge influence and cannot be compared to the Zhao family.
"Dad, you are worrying too much. We have an official position in hand. From now on, we will be the chief of grain. No matter whether the Li family is willing or not, he can't change anything." Boss Zhao looked disapproving.
But Father Zhao didn't think so. He looked solemn and said in a low voice: "You have an official certificate, but the official certificate is dead, and the person is alive. If the Li family takes advantage of you just coming back, they will not be able to stand. Steady, if we attack you directly, what should you do? If something happens to you, will the official certificate in your hand still be able to replace you as the grain chief? In my opinion, without further delay, you should go back to the county seat overnight, It will only be safe for you to come back after the county government officially appoints you as the grain director and everyone knows about it."
The father's words immediately reminded Mr. Zhao, not to mention that if the Li family was in a hurry, it would really be possible. Moreover, at this moment, Boss Zhao also understood why the county magistrate did not immediately send someone to follow him to announce his appointment. It's about making excuses to delay it for a day.
At first, Boss Zhao was eager to go home and didn't think much about it. Now it seems that it was probably because he had offended the county magistrate that he deliberately delayed it for a day so that he could inform the Li family and deliberately gave the Li family a chance to take action against him.
sinister!
Boss Zhao really didn't expect that the frail old man could have such a cunning trick.
After figuring it out, Mr. Zhao didn't panic at all. He just smiled coldly, looked at his father and comforted him: "Dad, you just put your heart in your belly and want to do something to the child? How can it be so easy?"
"Two fists are hard to beat with four hands. We know you are not afraid, but you should avoid it. You have an official certificate in hand, and you will be a legitimate grain chief in a short time. There is no need to stay at home and take risks." Father Zhao has now The boss is regarded as the backbone and hope of the Zhao family. Even if he is put in danger, he does not want anything to happen to the boss.
Boss Zhao was silent when he heard this. He knew that as long as he entered the county town, he would be safe. No matter how capable the Li family is, they would not dare to kill people on the street in the county town.
But this would put the whole family in danger. If the Li family couldn't find him, they would naturally look for his family. Of course, Boss Zhao can also take the whole family to the county town. Anyway, he is rich now and the whole family can live in an inn for several years without any problem.
But he felt that there was no need, so he stayed at home and waited for the Li family to arrive. He wanted to see who the Li family were.
"Dad, you overestimated them. My son was on the grassland, caught in a life-and-death fight with tens of thousands of troops, and the child was able to survive, but the Li family also wants our lives? What a joke!" Boss Zhao said disdainfully.
After hearing this, my father could no longer persuade him. In fact, he also knew that although the eldest son was his son, he had been away from home for many years. The father and son had just met, so it was impossible for them to have a deep relationship. He expected that the boss was unwilling to listen to him.
After chatting for a while, the three of them went to rest with their own worries. No matter what, we have to wait until dawn tomorrow.
As soon as daylight dawned the next day, the second daughter-in-law got up and prepared meals for the family. In the past, there was no need to eat at this hour, but it is different now. There are guests at home. They can refuse to eat, but the guests cannot refuse to eat.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the second daughter-in-law opened the door, she saw a group of people walking menacingly along the path towards her home from a distance.
"Master, it's not okay, get up quickly..." The second daughter-in-law was so frightened that she turned around and slapped the dilapidated door panel loudly, reminding everyone.
When everyone heard the noise, they quickly put on their clothes and went out.
Father Zhao saw a dozen strong men holding guns and clubs, menacingly walking into his yard, with a look of fear on his face. He spoke with a vibrato: "They are from the Li family, and they are indeed here."
When Boss Zhao saw him, he glanced at the Li family members calmly. When he turned around, he saw that his father's face was not very good, so he waved his hand to block him behind him. He took two steps forward, with his hands behind his back and a fearless expression on his face. To everyone.
The two people from Shanziying saw that the person coming was not friendly, so they took a few steps forward.
The three of them stood side by side, with Boss Zhao in the middle, completely covering the Zhao family.
The leader of the Li family was wearing a large blue satin, playing with a jade tablet in his hand, standing behind a group of people, and said with a smile: "Who do I think has such courage, and dares to instigate me and try to occupy me?" This grain chief. So it’s you? You, the boss of the Zhao family, have been dead for decades. Why didn’t you die outside? Why do you dare to come back and act like a monster? Do you think that with two people, you can live in the countryside? Walking sideways?"
Hearing that the Li family so unscrupulously cursed Mr. Zhao to die in a foreign country, Mr. Zhao and others were furious. They understood that today they and the Li family would either die or I would die. There was no third possibility.
Boss Zhao was not angry, he just narrowed his eyes and glanced at the man who made the rude remarks. He smiled and said: "Chief of Grains? You are no longer the chief of grains. We are the chief of grains here."
The Li family did not show any anger at all. Instead, they laughed strangely like a night owl, "Are you the grain chief? Hey... Before the county government officially informed me, I was still the grain chief here. In the county government, Before you are officially appointed, you are not. If you want to be the head of grain, it also depends on whether you have the life to survive until then... 甔甔! "
Boss Zhao squinted his eyes and looked at the Li family several times, and said loudly: "In the past, the Marquis said that people who work in car and boat shops should be killed if they are not guilty! We still don't understand what it means, but now it seems that it is It’s you who are causing trouble to the disgusting rats in this village.”
"Scold me, scold me heartily. If you don't scold me now, you won't have the chance to scold me later. Tsk tsk... Well, Lord Marquis, why don't you say you have met the emperor?" The Li family looked at each other like a cat playing with a mouse. Looking at the boss of the Zhao family.
He held it calmly and said, looking at the boss of the Zhao family jokingly, and said disdainfully: "Do you think you can scare me by bringing a Marquis out of thin air and spare your life? You are just dreaming, today Even if you move the King of Heaven here, you will still die."
"You want me to die? Just you?" The Zhao family boss's eyes suddenly became extremely sharp, and he said sarcastically every word. When he looked at the Li family, it was like shooting two sharp swords at him.
The Li family was suddenly startled and took a step back in fright at the Zhao family boss's gaze. Being frightened away by the look from the boss of the Zhao family, he suddenly felt his face become hot, and a surge of anger surged up, and he became more and more evil.
He waved his hand suddenly and said with a ferocious smile: "Come on, come on, beat him to death."
When the Li family yelled, the servants around them were ready to rush up with something in their hands.
"Be brave, we are the grain chief. Do you still think you are king if you attack us in broad daylight?" Boss Zhao shouted and immediately stopped all the servants.
The Li family members laughed ferociously, and laughed wildly: "Wang Fa? I am Wang Fa here, kill me!"
Facing the Li family's orders, the servants laughed wildly and were about to rush forward.
"boom!"
Just as the servants rushed a few steps, a loud noise exploded in the yard, startling everyone.
Just when everyone was confused, a servant fell to the ground, hugged one of his legs, and screamed miserably.
The boss of the Zhao family held a revolver in his hand, and the black muzzle of the gun was still filled with wisps of green smoke.
Father Zhao, who was standing behind, could see very clearly that the things in the boss's hands were taken out of his cowhide box that was not allowed to be touched by Niu Niu.
By the way, the boss said that it contains the capital for him to settle down...could it be this?
All the servants stared blankly at their companions rolling on the ground, tossing and wailing, but they all secretly swallowed their saliva. No one dared to take a step forward, and no one dared to help the man on the ground.
"Fire gun?" The Li family's eyes suddenly widened with disbelief on their faces. They pointed at Boss Zhao and said sternly: "You dare to hide the fire gun secretly? This is a capital crime. You are doomed!"
"Hmph! We didn't keep this revolver privately. Besides, you can't convict us." The boss of the Zhao family held his head high and said. Too lazy to quarrel with the Li family anymore, he cursed angrily: "You know better, get out of here, or next time I will hit you on the head and kill you!"
When the servant saw how powerful the fire gun was, he knocked down a person in one go. These people can fight with the wind, but when they see a tough fight, they instantly become intimidated and secretly retreat a little, hoping to find an opportunity to escape at any time.
"Give it to me. The fire cannon can only be fired once. If he fires it once, it will be useless. Give it to me. If you kill him, each person will be rewarded with ten taels of silver." Seeing that something was not going well, the Li family quickly wanted to uncover the secrets of the Zhao family. The boss is pretending to be powerful.
There must be a brave man under a heavy reward. When the servants heard that the Zhao family boss's gun was useless, and were stimulated by the silver reward, their eyes turned red, and they were about to rush forward again.
Without any hesitation, Boss Zhao raised his hand and shot the Li family in the ear. When the gunshot rang out again, a ball of blood burst out from the heads of the Li family.
When the Li family saw the firecracker bursting into flames against his head, he, who had heard about the power of the firecracker, fell into a state of despair. Even the pain on his ears could not make him feel anything.
He only felt another repeated alarm bell ringing in his heart, "I'm going to die... I'm going to die... I'm going to die..."
When consciousness returned to the body, the Li family screamed again and again, stroking their heads with their hands in panic. After touching for a while, but couldn't find the wound on his head, he came back to his senses in a daze and muttered to himself: "Am I still alive?"
Subconsciously he put down his hand, and suddenly saw the blood on his hand. He was so frightened that his limbs twitched and twitched, "Ah...ah! Ah~"
His legs were jumping wildly on the ground, desperately trying to get away from the boss of the Zhao family. The clothes on the crotch area quickly became soaked, leaving a long trail of water on the ground.
When the servants saw the master being transformed into this state, they were so frightened that they wanted to run away.
At this moment, when the Zhao family boss saw these servants still standing in front of him, he immediately raised his hand and fired at their feet.
"Bang~bang~bang~"
The rubble on the ground collapsed and flew, frightening all the servants to fly into the sky. They screamed and dropped the things in their hands, and ran desperately towards the distance.
In an instant, the head of the Li family was the only one left in the yard.
Father Zhao watched it from beginning to end and is still in a daze. When the boss originally dismissed the Li family's revenge, he thought it was the boss who was asking for help. I didn't expect that things would turn out like this, and the boss would completely defeat the Li family with his own strength. Even the boss's two colleagues didn't help.
Maybe the two of them had known for a long time that these people would not be the boss's opponents, so they didn't take action... Father Zhao thought.
At the same time, I couldn't help but glance at the fire gun in the boss's hand. Although it looked a little strange, the unusually bright reflected white light gave people a strange sense of beauty.
The boss is right, this is indeed the foundation for a life!
The eldest son of the Zhao family, carrying a revolver and a smile on his face, walked towards the head of the Li family step by step.
At this time, the head of the Li family was full of fear of the boss of the Zhao family. Even the smile on his face seemed to the head of the Li family to be more frightening than the evil ghost's evil smile.
"You...don't come over, don't come over~"
He hurriedly tried to escape, but his legs collapsed uncontrollably and he was jumping on the ground feebly.
Just when the boss of the Zhao family was about to walk in front of the head of the Li family, a voice came from the side.
"Chief Zhao, you're fine."
The eldest son of the Zhao family paused and looked at the people walking in from the door. The smile on his face did not change and he said with a smile: "May I ask your surname, sir? It seems we have never met before, right?"
"Hahaha, Zhao Liangzhang has never met a certain family, but a certain family has met Zhao Liangzhang." The familiar visitor smiled before saying anything, then nodded and explained: "A certain family's surname is Zhang, Tian Wei This Shiquan County arrests the head."
"I've seen Capt. Zhang." The smile on the Zhao family's boss's face grew wider when he heard this, and he clasped his fists and saluted him.
The boss of the Zhao family even understood why this catcher was here and stood up at the right time to stop him.
Obviously, this head catcher had been hiding secretly for a long time, just to see how he would end up. If he was beaten to death by someone sent by the Li family leader, then perhaps Capt. Zhang would not show up at all. Maybe even if he appears, it will be after all the Li family members have left.
It's long overdue, this is also the basic operation of the police.
But if he turns defeat into victory, it is not impossible for him to jump out to stop it, or even cover up the Li family on the spot.
As for why Capt. Zhang didn't jump out to protect the Li family leader, the boss of the Zhao family could guess a little bit from how his eyes frequently fell on the revolver in his hand.
Zhang Captou received the order from the county magistrate and was indeed planning to protect the head of the Li family. But after he saw the power of the revolver, he did not dare to say anything to protect him in front of the Zhao family boss.
The boss of the Zhao family ignored Zhang Captou, raised his hand to open the bomb bay, poured out the knocked out bullet casings and put them away, then pressed the bullets in one by one and closed it again.
