A farce outside the house ended with Luo Zhang taking away fifty taels of gold. The crowd around him gradually dispersed. However, what happened today spread throughout Chang'an in a short period of time. The incident of Mrs. Fang's failure at the hands of the boy from Luo's family became a topic of conversation after dinner.

Not only these, but also the money that Fang Jun owed Luo Zhang was adapted into. I don’t know who adapted it into it. The unknown things about Luo Zhang and Fang Jun. What’s more, the things about Fang Jun, Luo Zhang and the princess were adapted into Now, I don’t know what these people think about the secret of the three of them being together. Anyway, everyone is listening to it with great interest.

Regarding these rumors, Luo Zhang secretly sighed after learning about them. He didn't expect that there would be gossip news in the Tang Dynasty, and it was so ambiguous. He was simply the originator of gossip entertainment. I am afraid that no one in the future would be able to guess this. !

After getting fifty taels of gold, Luo Zhang went straight to the West Market. The East Market was a restaurant and a gathering place for merchants, while the West Market was a different scene. There were all kinds of workers, quarrymen, lumberjacks, Farmers, hunters, etc., just like the talent market in later generations.

As long as you come here, there is no talent that you can't find. All you have to do is roar, and then many people will surround you and ask about your situation, treatment, etc.

Of course, that is only a method for recruiting a small number of workers. If you want to recruit a large number of workers, you have to find some local cowards. These local cowards are like the intermediaries of later generations. They have a large number of manpower under their hands. You only need to tell them how many workers you want. Whatever they do, they can help you organize a group of people you want, but the price is not cheap. After all, people have to make ends meet.

After Luo Zhang came to the West Market, after some inquiring, he learned that there was a local snake named Du Jin who was very famous. He heard that many businessmen who wanted to build gardens, restaurants, etc. would come to him.

Du Jin is tall and dark-skinned. He looks like a strong man at first glance. He looks naive, but if you really think that he is honest and honest, you are totally wrong. He can be a local snake here. Which one is easy to get along with.

When Du Jin saw Luo Zhang, he was slightly startled. He didn't expect that the person looking for him was actually a young boy. Usually, the people who came to him to introduce people were older people. This was the first time he met a young boy. Talk to him about business.

But after Luo Zhang directly threw a piece of gold and revealed his identity, Du Jin was immediately shocked. Even though Luo Zhangcai left the house not long ago, his deeds spread at an extremely fast speed. .

As a local snake, Du Jin naturally knew about this matter immediately. He had just told his friends about it, but he didn't expect to see the real person in the blink of an eye.

"Mr. Luo County, I wonder what kind of manpower you want, how many people? Can I prepare it for you?" Du Jin said respectfully, he is a county man, a lord, but he is just a local snake, and he doesn't even have a wife. He even beat Fang Jun like a dog, and he was the future prince-in-law, so there was no way he could offend him.

Luo Zhang probably didn't expect that the trouble he caused in Fang Mansion would also increase his popularity, and even this local gangster would know him.

"The more people, the better. I need quarrymen and stone carvers, as well as lumberjacks and house builders. If you can contact the jade sellers, I also need a large amount of white jade, sapphire, and jade carving masters. As for more What, you come with me when the time comes and you can take a look and talk about it." Luo Zhang said slowly.

But after waiting for a long time and no one said anything, Luo Zhang raised his head and saw Du Jin standing there in a daze.

Luo Zhang smiled silently, coughed softly and said, "Do you remember clearly?"

"Ah! Oh! That... Mr. Luo County, do you want so many people to build a garden?" Du Jin swallowed and said, according to what Luo Zhang said, the manpower needed is overwhelming. It's not just as simple as building a garden, it's not an exaggeration to build a palace.

"I can't explain it to you, so let's do this. Do you have a great craftsman?" Luo Zhang shook his head speechlessly.

"Master craftsman? Yes, I know a great craftsman. He is very good. He was a craftsman in the palace during the Sui Dynasty!" Du Jin said hurriedly.

"Well, you call that person and come with me to see the place. Then I will tell him what to build, and you can recruit him what kind of people he wants. As for the money, I won't be short of you. !" Luo Zhang stood up and said.

Outside Chang'an City, Luo Zhang, Du Jin and the great craftsman Huang Pugong he introduced drove three fast horses towards Luo Zhang's fiefdom in Lantian County.

Along the way, Luo Zhang kept talking to the master craftsman about what he wanted to do. It was much easier to communicate with the master craftsman than with Du Jin. At least the master craftsman knew what he was talking about, and Du Jin was an intermediary. It's okay to ask him to introduce people, but telling him what you want to build is just talking to an ox.

After driving for half an hour, the three of them arrived at the barren land lined with strange rocks that the master of Lantian County had brought him to a few days ago.

At first, Du Jin and Dajiang didn't know what Luo Zhang was going to do, because there were no trees here and the surroundings were deserted. If they didn't know Luo Zhang's identity, they would have thought that Luo Zhang was robbing.

Fortunately, Luo Zhang was well prepared. After some explanations and planning, even the master craftsmen were impressed and repeatedly said that Luo Zhang had the talent of a great craftsman.

How can Luo Zhang be a great craftsman? He just watched too many costume TV series from later generations.

After some discussion between the three of them, Luo Zhang gave all the fifty taels of gold he had to Du Jin and signed a contract with the two of them.

After finishing this, Luo Zhang breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't know what the face of the county magistrate and the people behind it would be like after his plan was successful. Luo Zhang was looking forward to it.

Of course, Luo Zhang also told Qian to keep it a secret, so the two of them naturally agreed. The money given by Luo Zhang was not low. This was the first time for the two of them to accept such a big deal, so naturally they tried their best.

Ignoring the discussion between the two, Luo Zhang returned to Chang'an City. Calculating the time, Zhao Tianhu's restaurant should also be opened. I don't know what the situation is. This is related to his points income, so he can't help but care about it.

When he arrived at Datang Barbeque Shop, he saw that the door of the restaurant was still closed, which made Luo Zhang frown.

What the hell is Zhao Tianhu doing? It’s been a few damn days, why hasn’t it opened yet? Isn’t this a point that delays labor and management?

After getting off his horse, Luo Zhang went directly to the door of the restaurant. Just as he was about to knock on the door, he heard someone shouting from behind: "Brother, are you here?"

Luo Zhang turned around and saw Zhao Tianhu with his head hanging down and one hand still hanging, looking like he was seriously injured.

"What's going on with you?" Luo Zhang asked with a frown.

"This... little brother, let's go in and talk!" Zhao Tianhu said with a sad face.

After entering the restaurant and closing the door, Luo Zhang looked around and his eyes were focused. The restaurant at this moment still looked like a restaurant. The tables and chairs were overturned and there were porcelain shards on the ground. It was obvious that this place had been smashed. Not only In this way, even Zhao Tianhu's hand was broken. What happened?

Although Luo Zhang knew something had happened, he did not panic. Instead, he found a table and sat down. He glanced at Zhao Tianhu and said, "Tell me, what happened?"

"Brother, you have to make the decision for me!" As he spoke, Zhao Tianhu knelt down with a plop.

Luo Zhang rolled his eyes and said: "What are you doing? Is this still the Zhao Tianhu I know? Why are you crying like a girl now? Little Huzi, do you know you are ashamed?"

"No, little brother, I..."

Luo Zhang waved his hand directly, interrupted Zhao Tianhu and said: "Stand up now and tell me what's going on. I don't want to hear your nonsense. You don't have to say any more nonsense!"

Zhao Tianhu then wiped his nose and stood up and said: "This morning, just as I was about to open the store, a group of people rushed in and smashed the store to pieces. I and my brothers tried to stop it, but those people were very skilled in martial arts. It’s amazing, I’m no match at all, my hand is broken, all my men are injured, and I just came back from the hospital!”

"Do you know who it is?" Luo Zhang said in a deep voice, his face gloomy. This was obviously someone taking revenge on him. Who is it?

He went to Fang's house in the morning. It shouldn't be Fang Jun, but who would do this except Fang Jun?

"I don't know, but those people asked me to bring you a message!" Zhao Tianhu lowered his head and said.

"What words?"

"They asked me to tell you, get out of Dongshi if you know how to do it. If you want to open a barbecue restaurant in Dongshi, they will smash every one you open!" Zhao Tianhu said while observing Luo Zhang's face.

Luo Zhang raised his head and stared at Zhao Tianhu, saying word by word: "You should know who did it, right?"
