"Third brother, where did you find these two Jianghu people? It is not the turn of so-called wind and frost guests to intervene in this matter. Besides, when I see these two people walking around, their skills are not necessarily as good as those of the masters of Honglu Pawn Shop. How can you influence world affairs if you are tall?"
The old servant finally wiped the porcelain plate clean and walked up the stairs slowly. After breathing for a long time, he spoke in a hoarse voice, put the porcelain plate on the table, and spoke numbly, without looking at Peng Sanwu who was sitting on the hospital bed, or even Without even raising his head, he sat cross-legged on the futon, took out a few bright-colored stones from his clothes, threw them into his mouth, and then smoothed them smoothly on his chest, feeling very happy.
"As long as Sanzhang has this intention, no matter how many other things there are, I don't dare to force it."
Although Peng Sanzhang was the youngest son in the family since he was a child, he was not much less favored than Peng Sanwu. If the eldest son would inherit the family business in the future, the youngest son Peng Sanzhang would be weak due to congenital deficiencies. The parents and elders in the family care a lot, but the second son has not put much effort into it since he was a child. Even though the fighting eagle is wandering around and staying in the mountains until nightfall, he is still at ease. Like Peng Sanzhang, who rarely steps out of the house, although he is favored a lot, he is not at all comfortable at all.
"No wonder others say that the dragon gave birth to nine sons. The nine sons are different. With the eldest brother of the family here, he didn't even think about it at all. I guess he is still in the dark and doesn't know the ins and outs of this matter. It's really interesting. .”
The old servant quickly stopped talking, because Peng Sanwu, who was sitting on the bed, had already turned pale before he stopped. He glanced at this place calmly. He knew that he was speechless, so he didn't care too much. He bowed and bowed as an apology.
Peng Sanwu, whose expression was as normal as usual, did not pursue it, but stood up and took the cup that Wen Yu had just used from the table. The top was deeply and lightly engraved with colored glaze, allowing the autumn light outside to shine through and fall on the man's seal, making it dazzling. After a long while, he regained his interest in speaking, "Although I informed the officials in advance this time, I still couldn't avoid miscalculation and loss of sense. When we exchanged letters last time, we attracted several high-ranking officials who were sitting very high in the table. Feeling dissatisfied, it may take many favors in the future to be able to redirect the thoughts of these people back to the original path. It is a miscalculation on my part as the head of the house. My uncle still has to help, and he always gives advice to the juniors."
For some reason, Peng Sanwu said the word "junior" quite harshly, which made the old servant, who had not dared to raise his head, lower his gray head a little, trembling so hard that even the sound of breathing was hidden.
Autumn light is rare, and it will not be like March again. The gentle wind of the summer pine trees will no longer be able to stop the endless cold wind coming from the north. By then, it will be covered with snow and the weather will be unbearable. However, Whenever Peng Sanwu thinks of the scene of heavy snow and mid-winter, he feels a sense of contentment in his heart for no reason. Even though he just took over the Honglu Pawnshop that year, he and the old men left behind by his fathers hold swords and ride horses to the border. It is even more satisfying when the attackers kill the bandits until their blood boils.
The joyful spring breeze blows a man's sword, and the thin horse's west wind warms his throat. Compared to climbing a height alone, it's really not enough.
"I don't know if that young hero can see clearly, but according to my family, it's best not to see clearly."
Dozens of miles away to the east of Honglu Pawnshop, more than ten people on fast horses came galloping, their hooves beating like rolling thunder, and without stopping for a moment, they headed straight for Honglu Pawnshop.
In the past few years, the Chunfeng Gang has had several gang leaders. It was already a small gang that could be bullied by everyone outside Xia Song Pass. After being retired for twenty or thirty years, it still had some reputation. However, several gang leaders in succession rushed to take over, and then failed. After only two or three months of making money in the gang, he had to be removed from the gang leader position and expelled from the gang. After going back and forth, even if everyone in the gang tears their clothes to pieces, they may not be able to find half a copper coin in the end. Not to mention the worries about their livelihood, when it comes to the reputation of the Dongfeng Gang, it is already rotten to the core in the world outside the Guan. The reason is Because those few gang leaders who can be called dim-witted, after losing all their money, are looking for low-level jobs to make money. In addition to making money, in the past few years, the Chunfeng Gang has probably done all the most embarrassing jobs. Even after doing it once, regardless of the reputation or the situation of the gang, there are really not many people left.
But since the current gang leader took over the Chunfeng Gang, in just two or three years, the Chunfeng Gang has really come back to life. In addition to having far more money and manpower than usual, it has faintly surpassed all the people outside the border. The symbol of the road gang means that even those escort agencies who are big escorts and have a good reputation need to come and greet them with a smile. They are afraid that the Dongfeng Gang will use their current methods to come and seek revenge for the face they lost back then.
It's just that the dozen or so fast horses currently riding are all very elegant. Even if they are not big horses, they have fat hooves and high shoulders. At first glance, they are not ordinary horses, they are very majestic.
The leading man standing up and down broke through the heavy autumn atmosphere, but he had no intention of enjoying the scenery. He just rode fast in the direction of Honglu Pawnshop, and did not rest for several days. Only then could he rush forward.
"The gang leader doesn't need to be in such a hurry. The Honglu Pawnshop was robbed many days ago. At that time, the gang leader was busy outside and didn't catch up. Now that the dust has settled, it's better not to be so anxious. It's better to rest first and then go to the Honglu Pawnshop." Late." The gang members behind him were very puzzled. It was clear that their gang leader and the Honglu Escort Bureau were already quite incompatible. How come now that they heard that the Honglu Pawnshop had been robbed and almost destroyed its foundation, he was leading the attack alone? More than ten people hurriedly set out on the road, puzzled, and the horses were indeed tired. They no longer hid their words, but spoke directly to Peng Sanqi, who was looking down ahead.
Fortunately, this gang leader always listens to advice. After hearing this, he tightened the reins and slowed down the horse's feet. He stopped running for the time being. After a dozen or so riders were scattered behind him, he finally stopped the horse. Then he ordered to rest for a while and went to search around. Residence, rest for the night.
"My brother from the Honglu Pawnshop, although we have been very incompatible with each other since childhood, his way of life and ideas of doing things have never been in the same place, and he is probably very jealous of me, the second son of the Peng family. , for fear of taking away the head of Honglu Pawnshop, but over the years, he has lived very comfortably alone, and there is no need to go to take over Honglu Pawnshop. Since his parents and elders have entrusted him with the important task, how can he take it away? This incident happened suddenly, so I was very worried, so I came here regardless of the gang's troubles. I don't necessarily want the brothers to meet and get back together, but at least I want to take a look from a distance."
The two hall masters sitting next to Peng Sanqi looked at each other, but neither of them spoke.
During the time when Gang Leader Peng was traveling, the Chunfeng Gang was suppressed many times by Honglu Pawnshop for no reason. Although it was only for more than half a year, it also reduced the gang's money and food by nearly 30%. After all, although the Chunfeng Gang is now powerful, in the final analysis, It is still a border gang with a weak foundation. Compared with Honglu Pawnshop, which has a rich family and a reputation that has been outside the border for many years, it is probably like a gangster who has just changed his sword. In the world of peach blossoms, countless grand masters from different gangs are competing against each other. Although it is gaining momentum, it is not as good as Honglu Pawnshop. Naturally, others will try their best to offend the Chunfeng Gang and give most of their business favors to the latter.
But it was clear that their gang leaders were not aware of this matter, and were now extremely anxious. The two hall leaders thought for a while, and then swallowed their words again.
It is difficult for an upright official to resolve family matters, let alone the leader of the hall. How can he easily say such equivocal and provocative words to the leader of the gang? Even if two people look at each other, they can see the deep meaning in each other's eyes, but it is difficult to say anything. If they don't say anything, the most they will end up with is that the notification was not timely, and they will be criticized; but if they say everything, they can't. This made this gang leader who was always unscrupulous in everything he did and chess angry, and turned against the Honglu Pawnshop. The centipede would not die until death. If he really offended this gang leader who never had a way out, the Chunfeng Gang could easily escape from the fire and water. When he comes out, he may be knocked down by the Honglu Pawnshop again, or both sides will suffer losses, or the foundation of the Spring Breeze Gang will be severely damaged. In any case, it will be a heavy blow that the very senior members of the gang cannot bear.
Therefore, the two hall masters, who didn't know how to hide their concerns, had no choice but to look at each other, hold up the wine bag and drink it, their faces turned red. When chatting with Peng Sanqi, they were even more cautious, for fear of revealing some clues.
But Peng Sanqi had no intention of chatting today. He looked far in the direction of the Honglu Pawnshop, but he saw nothing except the high clouds in the early autumn sky and the light clouds in the sky.
There is no need to worry about Peng Sanwu's character and ability. After suffering this disaster, he will probably be able to get back on his feet. Probably within a few years, the power of Honglu Pawnshop will be stronger than before. What worries Peng Sanqi the most is that his younger brother, who has been very weak since he was a child and is not familiar with the world, has been supported by his elder brother, but only people like Peng Sanqi who have traveled through many realms in the world know this. , sometimes it is just not worthy of the position, even more than De is not worthy of the position, and the fall is even more miserable. If I had not survived this moment, and my shoulders could not bear the heavy burden, I am afraid that in the future, this little brother of Honglu Pawnshop will , even the status of an idle prince may not be retained.
"After so many years of separation, it's time for you to learn how to wake up. The eldest brother is very thoughtful and owns the entire Honglu pawn shop, but he can't always fight for it. He can't even pick out the people who are close to him. Jinque, there is no difference at all."
Peng Sanqi, who was holding a long knife, murmured a few words in a low voice. When he looked at Honglu Pawn Shop, his expression became more complicated.
This knife has traveled all over the country, and I don’t know how many masters I have seen. The hands of the person holding the knife are extremely stable, and the tip of the knife does not tremble when facing the enemy. Only when I walk to this very familiar Honglu pawn shop, even if The hands that hold the sword very steadily often tremble slightly, and the reason is unclear. Only the autumn wind is deeper and the desolation is heavier.
