That night, Liang Chuan immediately asked Zhaodi to go to Xinghua. Liang Chuan wanted to recruit his younger brother to hire a man in Xinghua. He had a long beard and told him to come to the store tomorrow morning.
"Third brother, I don't know Dutou... It's just like me. It's still late at night and I'm going to look for someone rashly. Not to mention Dutou, even the concierge won't pay attention to me."
It's definitely not good to disturb others like this. Liang Chuan took a handful of copper coins and gave them to his brother Zhao, "But it will be much more convenient if Brother Kong Fang is there to open the way. In the future, you must remember to be more flexible." "
Zhaodi smiled and said, I am not as rich as you. I have spare money to spend, but I am also as cool as you.
"Brother, you have to remember that nothing that money can solve is a problem. Sometimes, if you spend a little money to get things done, don't be stingy. You can't bear to part with small money, but you can't make big money." Liang Chuan emphasized again, "If If the concierge still refuses to report the matter after giving him money, tell him that it is about the remnants of the banditry in Da Fei Mountain and needs to be reported to Zheng Dutou." Liang Chuan did not believe it. The incident in Da Fei Mountain was so big that they could not take it seriously. .
Zhaodi followed Liang Chuan's instructions and hurried to Xinghua.
Xinghua at night is completely without the hustle and bustle of the day. The spring is chilly, and the north wind blowing on the body at night makes people feel chilly. The watchman's voice, loud and distant, swayed far away on the street.
Zhaodi ran towards the county government office in a hurry, attracting the attention of many passers-by. The curfew system had gradually disintegrated during the Song Dynasty. During the reign of Emperor Taizong and Zhenzong of the previous dynasty, attempts were made to restore this control system, but all ended in failure. The population grew too fast, there were not enough people to live in the cities and towns, and buildings were built haphazardly. It was not easy to control them even if they wanted to. If there is no curfew, then there will be no curfew.
Boom, boom, dull knocking on the door broke the tranquility of the night. In his dream, the concierge was groping for the waist of the widow next door. Just as he was about to put his gun into the hole, a knock on the door stopped him.
The concierge put on his trousers and opened the door. When he touched his lower body, he felt a chill. "Fuck your mother, who is crying in mourning in the middle of the night? If no one in your house died at night, I will beat you to death."
The door of the county government office opened a small crack with a creaking sound. The government office servant showed his head and saw a shabby poor boy standing there. He shouted, "What are you doing?"
Zhaodi was also an upright person. He was frightened by the tiger skin of the yamen servant, and his whole body trembled, so he stupidly handed over the money Liang Chuan gave him.
I don't know whether it's because he's too young, or because he thinks his younger brother looks down on him. The Yamen servant was furious when he saw Qian. He slapped away the copper coins handed over by his brother Zhao and shouted angrily: "Boy, go back to bed. You are amusing me with these stinky money in the middle of the night. Believe it or not, I slap you..."
The yamen servant raised his hand to slap, but his legs went weak and he knelt down. Remembering Liang Chuan's instructions, he burst into tears and said, "No, brother, I came here today to go to the head of the capital for important matters related to Dafu Mountain... It's not because of any deliberate intention." Teasing Brother Cha."
The yamen servant looked at Zhaodi suspiciously, "You are so timid and fearful, and your bones are so soft, how dare you get involved with those ruthless people in Dafushan?" But the trouble was serious, so the officer still said: "Pick it up!"
The younger brother Zhao was relieved, so he picked up the copper coins on the ground and handed them to the Yamen servant. The yamen servant weighed the money in his hand, put it skillfully into his pocket, and said disdainfully: "You boy, wait here for me, clear your mind and stop acting like a pig. I'll go Notice, don’t run around!"
Just as the concierge was about to leave, he turned back, glared at Tong Ling and shouted, "Which one will you look for?"
"The one from Dafushan..."
"Fudutou?"
Zhaodi nodded blankly, and the door slammed shut with a bang. Zhaodi squatted beside the gate of the county government office, the cold wind blowing on his face. He didn't know whether it was because he felt aggrieved or because he was confused, his eyes were red. I used to travel around all day long with my black nose, climbing mountains and wading in rivers, so I didn't have to deal with these ghosts and monsters. But his stomach is always full, and no one takes him seriously.
Now I have to force myself to cater to the world, and I have become less like myself, but it is not that sad. The grievance lasts for a while. Whenever I am abused by these monsters and snake gods, after getting over it, I seem to be That way. Zhaodi found that his heart was getting stronger and stronger.
"Has that person left?" Li Chengfu arrived before he could say anything, "Which of you will get the wind about this incident tonight. You won't even be able to share this month's regular money!"
"Don't worry, Du Tou, brothers all depend on Du Tou for a living and won't do such nasty things!"
Zhaodi squatted on the wall, feeling the cold wind blowing in the middle of the night, and fell asleep in a daze. Li Chengfu came out, scanned around, and saw no one standing outside the door. He shouted to the concierge, "Where is the person?"
The concierge was shocked, fearing that this boy was amusing himself at night. Du Tou had a bad temper. If he thought he was playing tricks on him, he would kill him. He hurriedly ran to the door and took a look for himself, "Here's my head, this kid fell asleep leaning on it."
Li Chengfu grabbed Zhaodi by the collar, lifted him up, and said viciously: "Did you come to report to the official that Da Feishan committed evil? Where is he?"
Brother Zhao's eyes were filled with fear. This bearded man was even scarier than the bandit. He said, "My boss asked me to come to you. He asked you to wait for him at the store at Fengshan Road tomorrow morning."
Li Chengfu was stunned and said: "Who is your boss? You want me to see him!"
"Liang Chuan."
"Liang Chuan, you bitch, how dare cats and dogs come to seek bad luck on me now!"
Liang Chuan!
Damn, this is a noble person!
Li Chengfu could not avoid having a fit when he got up in the middle of the night, but when he thought of being able to make a contribution again, Liang Chuan was not an ordinary person, so he suppressed his anger. He said every word to his brother Zhao. This was all for Liang Chuan's sake. If Liang Chuan hadn't given him a huge favor, he would have been so angry that he took out the iron ruler from his waist and wanted to say hello properly. younger brother.
He didn't know much about recruiting younger brothers, but he didn't. At least he could see the person's face clearly. Li Chengfu picked him up. No matter how stupid he was, he knew how to struggle now. Unfortunately, the bearded man was too powerful, and grabbing him was like pulling him Like a little chicken.
"My lord, have mercy on me. My boss's real name is Liang Chuan. Liang Chuan from Helu. The same Liang Chuan who killed several bandits a few days ago, lord."
Zhaodi told him everything Liang Chuan told him, like pouring beans.
Li Chengfu heard his brother Zhao narrate that this guy had sold him a huge favor last time. He asked Zheng Zuliang to invite him to come to the Lantern Festival to have fun. I heard that he was not happy and did not want to accept the favor. What the hell are you doing now, calling me over, do you want to return my favor?
"I understand. You go back first. I will go to Fengshan early tomorrow morning."
Li Chengfu knew that Liang Chuan was not a simple person. There was such a large group of bandits in Dafu Mountain, so he was able to deal with it as soon as he asked, leaving a few alive for him to come back and claim credit for. Thanks to those few who were still alive, they came back and were tortured. Their confessions were exactly the same, and the magistrate rewarded him. More importantly, his weight in the eyes of the magistrate was completely different now than before.
Now that he has called himself, and it involves the Dafu Mountain incident, there is still no news about the key bandit leader. It is necessary for him to find Liang Chuan again, in case he can catch the bandit leader, considering that his status has now changed. Xibi, if you make another great contribution, the thousand-year-old second child will no longer be you!
In the early morning of the next day, Li Chengfu drove his tall horse straight to Fengshan. According to the location explained by Zhaodi, at the intersection of Fengshan, the signboard was called Wanda. He didn't ask much. Anyway, he couldn't find anyone on the road and stopped him to ask.
Wanda? Why did you get such a name? What do you sell? Li Chengfu was also curious about how this guy opened a store and started a business.
On the streets of Fengshan early in the morning, a group of government officials ran past with fire and water sticks in their hands. The people looked at the officials who were stirring up troops and were afraid to avoid them. In their eyes, these people were like locusts, the god of plague. There is not even a blade of grass growing.
"Old man, let me ask, is there a store called Wanda here?" Early in the morning, in order not to make unnecessary mistakes, Li Chengfu still asked his subordinates to ask for directions.
When the old man heard that he was asking about this legendary shop, he narrowed his eyes and replied: "Master, are you going to grab the paper money and paper figures from the Wanda store? I can tell you, old man, that you are late and have already disappeared."
The yamen servant was furious: "Robbing your mother's paper money and burning it to your damn wife? I ask you where the store is, and I'll break your old bones if you keep talking."
The old man's kind reminder was scolded, and his face turned dark while he was pedaling. He pointed at Fengshan Street and said: "Go straight on this road until you reach the market entrance. Please be slow, sir."
"Get out of here!" the yamen servant cursed. He was already in a bad mood after walking such a long way early in the morning, and he felt even more unhappy after being teased by this old country man.
A group of people rushed in the direction pointed by the old man. They asked many people along the way, and they all looked like they were late, as if they were late for some big deal and couldn't make it.
Liang Chuan arrived at Fengshan early in the morning and bought wheat cakes, soy milk, meat buns, rice wine and other food on the way. Li Chengfu and his gang arrived after a long journey. Li Chengfu turned over and dismounted, and when he saw Liang Chuan, he went straight to the topic and said, "Liang Chuan, you sent someone to Xinghua to notify me last night. Is it possible that you know the news about this group of bandits in Da Feishan?"
Liang Chuan welcomed a group of government officials into the store. Everyone saw that Liang Chuan's store was empty, and everyone was beating their hearts. They had never seen a store like this in the world. There were only a few rows of couplets hanging in the store, and there was nothing.
"Brothers, you guys have been running all the way. You must have not had breakfast yet. I bought some food for your brothers." Liang Chuan took everyone to the attic on the second floor. The table was filled with all kinds of food. To satisfy the hunger of these government servants.
"Hey, Liang Chuan, you are so worried about me. Why did you call me here in such a hurry? If it weren't for that matter, I would have mobilized a large number of people to come out, and there would be no way to explain it to the boss in the county."
"Don't worry, I'll explain it to you in detail after you finish eating. What can you do when you're hungry?"
