On the way back, the person next to me said worriedly: "Brother Liu, I think you agreed to this hastily!"
Liu Haojia said: "Oh, Brother Shang, why do you say that?"
Shang Bin said: "Huang Bantou's men are easy to deal with! They are pretty good at bullying the people on weekdays, but if they really do it, they can't beat us! Especially the gangsters are definitely no match for us! But we are afraid of the militia. Something is wrong!"
Liu Haojia said: "What trouble can they make?"
Shang Bin said: "Although the People's Army and the Fifth Army Camp are two different groups, they are familiar with each other. I'm worried that they will invite experts from the Fifth Army Camp to fight against us, and we brothers will not be able to withstand it!"
Shang Bin said: "Yes, that's what I'm worried about! You have to know that there are many people in the military camp who are very brave and good at fighting. If they really invite good fighters, we people really won't be able to see enough!"
Liu Haojia smiled slightly and said: "Brothers, don't worry, I have already made plans!"
Wang Hongfeng said: "Then what are your plans?"
Liu Haojia waved for the two of them to come over, and then whispered a few words. When he finished speaking, Shang Bin immediately said loudly: "That won't work. If the blame comes from above, something big will happen!"
Wang Hongfeng also said: "Yes, this is no joke!"
Liu Haojia said confidently: "Brothers, don't worry, nothing will happen! If anything happens, I will take full responsibility, little brother!"
Shang Bin wanted to say something more, but Liu Haojia stopped him and said, "Brother Shang, please stop talking. Just believe me! In addition, you two can help me pick out a hundred brothers who dare to fight in the past two days." , then don’t show up, I will take care of the rest!”
Seeing that Liu Haojia insisted on his own opinion, Shang Bin and the others had no choice but to agree. And things happened just as Shang Bin and Wang Hongfeng expected. On the way, Huang Bantou and Li Zongqi kept discussing something in low voices. Moreover, the two of them did not go home separately, but went to Huang Bantou's house to spend the night.
Early the next morning, two well-dressed people bought two jars of old wine on the street, and then left the city directly. They didn't go far before they came to a small village. This small village does not look prosperous, but it covers a large area, and there are only scattered fields, not a large area.
The reason why this is so. It's because this village basically relied on the military camp. Most of the people in this village are military relatives, and these people gather together to gradually form a village-like gathering place. There are many similar gathering places around the capital. But in a gathering place like this that can be located close to a military camp, officers, big and small, usually live there. A little further away is where the families of soldiers gather.
After the two people walked into the village, Team Leader Huang looked around curiously, while General Li Qi looked like he was familiar with the road. When he saw Squad Leader Huang's appearance, he casually asked, "Why, Brother Huang, you've never been to this place before?"
Huang Bantou said: "Don't tell me, I have never been to this place! The government has no control over this place. Even if something goes wrong, it will be solved internally. We are not needed, so of course I have never been here."
Just then, a group of children screamed and whizzed by. Squad leader Huang kept watching the children disappear around the corner of the room before saying, "It seems that life in the army is good, these little kids are all strong and strong!"
General Li Qi sneered and said: "Brother Huang, you are overthinking! What kind of place is this? Everyone who lives here, big or small, has an official name, and they naturally live a happy life! I will take you to see those ordinary soldiers when I have the opportunity in the future. Where you gather, you will know what it means to be unlucky!"
Squad leader Huang said with great interest: "So, the situation of empty pay in the army is very serious?"
Li Xiaoqi chuckled and said: "Brother Huang, you have to face endless things every day in your yamen, so servants and helpers are indispensable. But now that the country has not fought a war for more than a hundred years, those military camps have almost been Empty! Not to mention anything else, almost three floors of the fifth military camp are empty, and it is difficult for the remaining soldiers to get enough pay! That's it, you have to follow the orders of the commander to do work for them. With luck, you can get it Point reward money, but if you’re unlucky, you won’t get anything!”
Hearing this, Bantou Huang nodded and said: "I know this. Many of the jobs in the capital are done by soldiers from the capital camp. The employer also pays less, but it seems that they are all ignored by the officials!"
General Li Qi said: "Actually, the soldiers in the Beijing camp are quite lucky. It's not difficult to make ends meet. Soldiers from other places are already guilty!"
Squad leader Huang smiled and said, "Tell me, for a member of the fifth team of the General Flag, how many vacancies have you taken?"
Mr. Li Qi laughed a few times and said, "Then tell me, how many merchants do you knock on and how many white ducks do you kill every year?"
At this point, the two looked at each other and smiled, and no one mentioned this topic again. Then they turned a corner and came to a house. Since all the people living in the village were military officers, no one had any land to farm. And there are a lot of people living together, so the yards in this village are not big. However, the courtyard wall is much higher than that of the farmer's house.
Mr. Li Qi stepped forward and knocked on the courtyard door, shouting loudly: "Is Qian Baihu at home?"
After he shouted twice, he heard a woman's voice in the yard saying, "Who is it?"
General Li Qi said hurriedly: "Coming down is Li Changyou from the People's Army, who has visited me at home before!"
The woman in the yard then said loudly: "Wait a moment, I will report to the master."
Hearing the footsteps walking inside, Mr. Li Qi whispered: "It seems that you are at home. I guess you are still hungover from last night!"
Team leader Huang nodded and remained silent. He was not familiar with Qian Baihu, so he didn't want to cause any trouble.
After half a stick of incense, the door opened with a bang, and a strong man wearing a straight blue cloth revealed his chest covered with heart-protecting hair, looking out with a tired face. When he saw Team Leader Li, he squeezed his glasses hard and saw the two people outside the door clearly. Then he yawned and said, "So it's you, come in first!"
When his eyes turned to the old wine they were carrying, his eyes immediately brightened. He let Zhengtang sit down with the two of them, took the towel handed over by the maid, and wiped his face in a daze. While he was wiping his face, the maid pulled his loose hair into a bun. So after he stood up and put on his belt, he looked much cleaner.
