Amin, "Listening to Brother Zhanfeng's words in the tea shed, it seems that he is very familiar with Linzhuang. The chess player fainted and asked the question
"More than knowing." [No pop-up novel website] Xiao Zhanfeng said, "He is my neighbor!"
It turns out that Linzhuang and Xiao Zhanfeng's families originally lived on Hai'an Street. Xiao Zhanfeng's father did some small business because the family had little land, and he prospered. In order to let his children succeed in their studies, they moved to the county town so that they could get a good private villa.
"Lin Zhuang has been the king of children since he was a child." Xiao Zhanfeng smiled and said, "He is easy to show off, loyal, and easy to make friends. He turns out to be a pretty good person. What a pity." He shook his head. "This man accidentally made friends and got into a hobby. The few hard-earned money he earned from burning fires in Tangcha was either spent on "private money", or he was given to others in the casino. "
"So that's how it is." Kan Tianxiong thought that this was just his personal ethics. Eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling did not necessarily mean he was incompetent, and a modest gentleman did not necessarily mean he was a great talent. If Xiao Zhanfeng only had this knowledge, he would be a little weak.
"This is still a small section." Xiao Zhanfeng's face turned slightly red and he drank the distilled liquor. "Just having a hobby will inevitably bring a loss of virtue. Let's just say this time, little one,
This time Linzhuang took the lead and complained to the county government. The sugar inspection workers were from the yamen who had made a sum of money together, so no one came in if they had no money. As long as you get a lawsuit, no matter whether you win or not, there will still be a sum of up-and-down administrative fees.
"This is a good thing in Linzhuang! On the pretext of filing a lawsuit, he collected a lot of money from the workers, and he swallowed at least half of it himself. After losing the lawsuit, he said that all the money was spent, and swallowed the rest. Everyone is in trouble."
"That's not all. Later, Mr. Zhu gave him money and asked him to maintain the workers in Tangcha and prepare to embarrass you. I don't know how many times I received money. But, the latest time, I I saw him lose more than a dozen taels in one go at the casino. The young and old in front of the monk's temple drank moldy rice porridge every day. When he started to suffer, these sugar village workers were considered blind.
This statement is completely different from the "people are quite decent" that Zhou Shizhai heard from him, and it is almost as good as a "despicable villain".
"Isn't it fair to say that others are not the outside world's critics?"
"Haha, most people don't know what tricks he does. He also pretends to be presentable. He is in rags all day long and has a sad face. In fact, you only need to go to Sister Ai's house in the back street of the county to see what he is. Isn’t it completely clear what kind of behavior you are doing?”
"Who is Sister Ai?"
Xiao Zhanfeng was startled and said with a smile: "That's right. You have only been online for a few months, so naturally you don't know
Ai Sao is a well-known local old dove; she runs a large "private shop". Most of the prostitutes in the county live in her home. In addition to women, she also runs a casino and is the salesperson of the lower class in Xuwen County. Golden Cave.
"Are you familiar with Mrs. Ai?" Mou Tianxiong asked coldly to see if he was an honest person. Mou Tianxiong thought that it was not a big problem if a person had some problems. I'm just afraid of being a hypocrite. Xiao Zhanfeng said that others were very enthusiastic, but his words seemed to be very familiar with casinos and "private heads". I'm afraid he was not an upright gentleman.
"I'm not familiar with her, but I'm very familiar with one of her people. Xiao Zhanfeng didn't seem to realize Tianxiong's intentions, and said with great interest, "I'm a pauper, and Sister-in-law Ai's eyes are very snobbish. "
It turns out that he has a distant relative who has been widowed for many years and is now helping in the kitchen as a maid. Xiao Zhanfeng often goes to see her.
As for why he often went to Ai Ai's place, he kept silent. It was obviously not a glorious thing. Mou Tianxiong thought that he probably had some unclear relationship with the widow. It is inconvenient to ask further.
At the moment, I didn’t ask any more questions, and just started chatting about the world. Xiao Zhanfeng was very interested in machine-made sugar making in South China, so Mou Tianxiong went along with it and told him some basic principles. Unfortunately, the only thing he had learned since he was a child was the Thirteen Classics. I can't understand science and technology at all, and I haven't even read some ancient Chinese science and technology books. So it is very difficult to explain.
"It seems that we are actually the frog in the well!" Although Xiao Zhanfeng could not understand eight of the ten sentences, he still listened with great interest, and finally said this sentence,
"It's just that the situation in South China is worrying now." Mou Tianxiong looked at it and brought the topic back.
Xiao Zhanfeng said enigmatically: "How can you see it?"
Mou Tianxiong immediately told Mr. Zhu what he was planning to do to make trouble for the sugar inspection workers.
Xiao Zhanfeng nodded and said: "I have heard about this matter. However, I thought that this matter would not cause trouble. Even if it did, it would be nothing more than a thunderstorm and a small rain."
"Why?"
“Haven’t Shopkeeper Mou ever heard of raising bandits to respect themselves?
These words immediately reminded Kan Tianxiong. Xiao Zhanfeng said proudly: "What kind of thing is Linzhuang? He is a tough-talking person. Not to mention that if something happens, the Yamen will pursue it: the lightest, the lightest, he will not be able to escape if he is detained for a few days and given a meal. Even with Mr. Zhu. Working on behalf of the yamen, you always have to suffer the consequences. Besides, if he really defeated South China, wouldn't he be afraid of Zhu Sanye crossing the river and burning the bridge?
"Not bad, not bad!" Tan Tianxiong suddenly realized that this scholar's vision was indeed good. Once South China fell, Mr. Zhu no longer needed to give him money to maintain the team of sugar inspectors. On the contrary, the sugar inspection workers had to be grateful to Mr. Zhu. , how can he, a person who relies on being in the middle of traffic and reaps huge benefits from both sides, still get along?
"Then, according to Mr. Xiao's opinion, how should this matter be resolved?" Mou Tianxiong was in awe.
"Just call me Zhanfeng." It was probably rare for Xiao Zhanfeng to receive such respect from others, and he couldn't help but feel that "a scholar dies for his confidant." At that moment, I poured out my thoughts on this matter one by one.
"Master Zhu also knows that Lin Zhuang is unreliable, so he organized a group of people, including those bad guys like Zhao Jijiao. They are desperadoes who are not afraid of anything, but unfortunately their number is too small to make a difference. So we have to When they go to South China to cause trouble, the sugar workers and the gangsters are the inside and outside of each other.
If the sugar workers don't make trouble, the bad guys can't take advantage of the situation. Xiao Zhanfeng scratches on the table with his chopsticks, "Why doesn't Lin Zhuang know what Mr. Zhu is planning? Someone from Zhao Jijiao must have done something. The sugar village workers came to jack up the vat. So he kept delaying it just to get more benefits from Mr. Zhu. But if Mozhuang was forced by Mr. Zhu to take action, things would get into trouble.
Mou Tianxiong listened very carefully and compared it with the previous one. Didn't Xiao Zhanfeng's words at this time contradict the previous "Things can't get into trouble"? After thinking about it silently, I realized that this person was a scholar after all, and it was probably his habit to "make surprising remarks". There was no need for Fan Shi to poke at De Shu and say that his analysis was reasonable. After combing through it in a hurry, there were many details that they had not grasped originally. After all, he is a native of his hometown and sees things more clearly.
.
"so"
"So as long as Linzhuang is subdued, people like Zhao Jijiao won't be able to get ahead at all."
"I also have the same intention!" Mou Tianxiong said. "But I heard it's too late. They said they will burn incense and swear an oath at Monk Xi Temple in three days."
"Everyone in Xu Wen knows about this." Xiao Zhanfeng disagreed, "Chess shopkeeper, if you really want to make trouble, the only way is to secretly connect and suddenly gather to burn incense and cause trouble. How could the matter of burning incense be known to the whole city three days ago? What’s more, Linzhuang’s so-called burning incense and swearing was just a “swear” and he didn’t say that he would take action immediately.”
The more he spoke, the more energetic he became: "Lin Zhuang was just forced by Third Master Zhu to make a gesture. It is worthy of the money he received. So he will definitely not take action after three days. You think you will think twice before taking action." Are you still spending a few days gambling in private houses?"
It turns out that this is what Xiao Zhanfeng really meant when he said, "If this matter doesn't cause trouble, even if it does, it will be nothing more than thunder and rain." Mou Tianxiong nodded secretly. This man really has some skills.
"So there is still plenty of time to conquer Linzhuang."
"So Linzhuang is not in the monk's temple?" Mou Tianxiong asked.
"Why is he there?" Xiao Zhanfeng said, "Ever since Mr. Zhu recruited him, he has been living with Ai Ai. He lived a romantic and happy life. He is probably still there now."
"Then I want to meet him and "make friends" with him." Mou Tianxiong raised his hand and said, "Brother Zhanfeng, please give me some advice." He said. "I am an outsider, and my eyesight is dark when I do this. It's up to you to take care of me. "
"Easy to say, easy to say!" Xiao Zhanfeng bowed his hand in return, "But if there is anything I can do, I will do my best."
Kan Tianxiong saw that he didn't shirk away from him, and he was obviously a man with a lot of responsibility. He took out ten taels of silver and put them on the table.
"Listening to your words is worth ten years of reading." Mou Tianxiong said, "Brother Zhanfeng lives a poor life. Please use this little money to supplement your income. I will thank you in the future!"
"I don't deserve it." Xiao Zhanfeng refused flatly, "I absolutely don't want the money. Please take it back. I am the shopkeeper and you are a friend and that's why you said this. If you don't mean what you said, even if you gave me ten thousand taels, I wouldn't bother to say this. .”
This is a man with a bit of character, although what he said later may sound like bragging to Kan Tianxiong. He immediately took the money back. "In this case, I will come back tomorrow. Then I will ask Brother Zhanfeng to lead the way to conquer Linzhuang."
"What's so difficult about this? It's easy to go today."
"No need, no need," Mou Tianxiong said. "There are still a few things to deal with at hand. Since things haven't reached that point yet, it's not too late to go tomorrow."
Kan Tianxiong took Zhou Shizhai back to the candy store. Although I didn't see Lin Zhuang today, I gained a lot from getting to know a person like Xiao Zhanfeng.
Kan Tianxiong is a person who pays attention to being cool and cool when doing things. After thinking for a moment, he invited Zhou Shizhai to come in.
"Master Zhou!" He said straight to the point, "What do you think of Xiao Zhanfeng today? Do you believe it or not?"
Zhou Shizhai has been a prostitute for a long time and has a lot of experience in the world. He has a good way of recognizing people.
"It's trustworthy." Zhou Shizhai was unambiguous.
"Well, I also think this person can be used." Mou Tianxiong said, "But you must be on guard against others. This is a critical time. Please bring some local brothers to find out Xiao Zhanfeng's background."
"Okay, I'll go right away." Zhou Shizhai went out immediately.
In the evening, the sugar factory workers who went to lobby the sugar steam workers also came back one after another. Naturally, there was no big effect in one day, but the news they brought back was very clear. Many unemployed workers were depressed and felt hopeless about their future. Although Linzhuang supplies brown rice on a daily basis to make ends meet, but everyone feels that this kind of relief is not a long-term solution.
There is indeed something about burning incense and swearing an oath. And recently, some people have been inciting them to attack the South China Sugar Factory, saying that as long as the South China Factory is destroyed, the small sugar village in Leizhou will recover. The sugar cooks are the most enthusiastic about this. After all, they all use the old method. They benefit the most, so they are willing to take risks. However, ordinary workers feel that attacking the sugar factory, destroying weapons and fighting with weapons is tantamount to "violating the king's law." Even if the old sugar production method is restored, it will only be a meal, so they are not very enthusiastic. In addition, Lin Zhuang, the leader, had an ambiguous attitude and never expressed his stance. No one took the lead, and no one was willing to take the lead, so it was a stalemate.
From this point of view, Xiao Zhanfeng's judgment that "burning incense" is just a "swear" and not a "riot" is completely accurate. Mou Tianxiong immediately asked these people to continue activities tomorrow, hinting to the unemployed workers that Huanan is willing to recruit workers. Not only can they provide a salary, but they are also willing to provide relief to their entire family.
No matter how many unemployed people will be pulled over by them, at least people's hearts will be in chaos. However, it seems that Linzhuang has never really united people-this ancient worker leader still had too many selfish thoughts, so it could not become a climate.
From this point of view, things are already certain to be successful. It probably won't take much effort to buy Linzhuang tomorrow.
The next day, they were still accompanied by Zhou Shizhai. They pretended to be traveling merchants and domestic servants, and first took a sedan chair to secretly arrive at the "Dachang Rice Shop" in the county town. This was the place where Liao Daxing worked as a waiter, so The relationship between the two places is unusual. All the rice used in South China comes from him. Boss Zhu from Mihang is naturally very attentive to such a big customer.
Because there may be eyeliner to avoid. After the two arrived, they called a waiter to invite Xiao Zhanfeng. After Xiao Zhanfeng arrived, Mou Tianxiong and his party accompanied him and led the way to Ai Sao's house.
.
In through the front ear, out through the back door. After the row of meters, there is an alley. After walking for a few dozen meters, you turn onto a long street paved with extremely smooth bluestone slabs. Looking around, the rows of buildings are quite neat. Pedestrians on the street are also dressed more neatly than those in Lingao, thanks to the prosperity of the sugar industry. Xuwen is still a fairly prosperous place.
However, the head of the private family was never in a lively place, so Xiao Zhanfeng led the way from the front of the county government office to a remote place behind the county. Most of the roads here are lined with the back walls of wealthy families. The wind and fire walls are towering, with only small doors open. There are few pedestrians.
After turning a few more turns, I came to a small double door. Xiao Zhanfeng stopped and said, "This is it."! ~!
