Hearing someone calling, Lu Zhishen followed the sound and saw Lin Chong walking quickly, and he was overjoyed.
"I thought it was who it was, but it turned out to be Junior Brother, making it easy for us to find him!"
"Brother, what's going on?"
Lin Chong walked closer, looked at the three people on the ground, and asked impatiently.
Lu Zhishen's expression moved slightly and he said bluntly: "This is not the place to talk. Let me go back with you and meet them first."
After saying that, without waiting for Lin Chong to agree, he pulled him away and quickly left the place of right and wrong.
All the way back to where they stayed, Jiang Jingzheng discussed with Yang Zhi how to find out the news tomorrow.
Suddenly, Lu Zhishen's joyful shouting was heard from outside: "Brother Yang, second in charge, come on, let's see who I meet when I go out!"
The two looked at each other and realized that Lu Zhishen had just gone out.
Lian came outside and saw Lin Chong following Lu Zhishen. They were both surprised and hurried forward.
"Coach Lin, you're here, so we can wait!" Jiang Jing said happily.
"How is it going, Master, in the city?" Yang Zhiye asked.
Lin Chong saw this and said hurriedly: "Everything is fine, fine. It was the Young Master who asked me to come out of the city to look for you. He expected that the Second Master and Coach Yang would definitely come to Daming Mansion if they obeyed. Since the four gates of Daming Mansion are closed, you will definitely come." Waiting here at the dock, I didn’t expect it to be like this!”
Jiang Jing heard this and praised: "Young Master is really a god! To be honest, we have been outside the city for two days."
Yang Zhi also said: "That's right. Just now I was discussing with the second master. Tomorrow we will go to the city gate to inquire about the news and see when we can enter the city to meet the young master."
"Young Master is also waiting for you, are your brothers here?" Lin Chong asked.
"Everyone is here," Yang Zhilian said.
"Great, then come with me to the city quickly. Young Master has something urgent to do over there."
As he spoke, Lin Chong greeted everyone and prepared to enter the city together.
Jiang Jing frowned and said worriedly: "Instructor Lin, the four doors of Daming Mansion are now closed. Instructor Yang and Master Lu are fine, but we are all guilty, so I'm afraid it won't be easy to call the officials for interrogation."
Hearing this, Lin Chong smiled and said: "Second Master, don't worry. When I came out, the young master gave Daming Mansion Liang Taishu's warrant, and the officials at the city gate didn't dare to check."
"I see, then let's go."
After hearing this, Jiang Jing relaxed and said hurriedly.
In this way, a group of people gathered together and came to the city gate. There were many of them, and they all looked unusual, so they asked the city gate guards to stop them.
Lin Chong stepped forward, took out Liang Zhongshu's warrant, and explained: "I hope the officials know it. We have important matters to enter the city under the orders of Master Zhongshu. This is Master Zhongshu's warrant. As a proof, please let me go."
The officer took the order, took a look at it, and then said hurriedly: "It turns out that Mr. Zhongshu summoned me, I almost misunderstood."
"It's okay, sir, can we go in?" Lin Chong asked.
"Of course, please."
The official waved his hand and asked the city gate guard behind him to open the gate and let the group of people pass through.
After entering the city, Lin Chong led everyone to the inn.
Gao Kan was waiting in the post station. Unexpectedly, Lin Chong happened to meet someone when he went out. He heard his happy voice inside, and when he went out, he saw everyone following him. He was also very happy.
"Master Lu, the second in charge, Coach Yang, you are back!"
"You really shouldn't bother me, sir," Jiang Jing said hurriedly.
Yang Zhi stepped forward: "It took a lot of effort to find the second master this time, so I wasted a lot of time. Please forgive me, sir."
"It's okay. As long as everyone is back, come in quickly. You all have worked hard. I asked the store to prepare wine and meat for the brothers."
As Gao Kan spoke, he called the waiter at the inn to give instructions.
Everyone entered the hall and took their seats. Jiang Jing, Yang Zhi, Lu Zhishen and Lin Chong sat with Gao Kan and talked about something.
After listening to their explanation of the situation, Gao Kanye said that it was just a coincidence, as it should be in fate.
Jiang Jing had already learned from Yang Zhichu that all the arrangements were planned by a high level, and he admired him in his heart. He praised: "It is all thanks to the master's planning that we are safe. We will die for the master's saving grace." Pay it forward!"
"The second master's words are serious. They are all brothers, and that's how it should be."
Gao Kan smiled and said, "It's a great blessing that you all have returned safely this time. All the good food and drinks today are mine."
"Thank you, sir." Everyone said in unison.
After the wine and meat were served, everyone opened their bellies to eat, especially the people from Huangmen Mountain. After coming down the mountain, they had been on tenterhooks all the way, but today they were finally happy.
After eating and drinking for more than an hour, the soldiers in Huangmen Mountain, including the people Yang Zhi and Lu Zhichong brought to rescue them, became extremely drunk and fell asleep on the table.
Gao Kan asked people to arrange accommodation for them, and asked Lin Chong to help carry them. Then he called Jiang Jing and Yang Zhi aside.
The two also drank a lot, but were still sober.
Knowing that they must be in trouble, they all braced themselves and waited for orders.
So Gao Kan asked Liang Zhongshu to transport grain and lead Gao Kan to lead people, and everything was discussed about the suppression of Huangmen Mountain.
Then he smiled and said: "God is really helping me with this situation. With Liang Zhongshu as a guarantor, the second head of the family and all the brothers can safely settle down on Huangmen Mountain in the future."
"Young master, you want us to go up the mountain first and then come to care for you?" Jiang Jing asked.
"That's what it means."
Gao Kan nodded and continued: "Shopkeeper Tian purchased nearly 200,000 tons of all kinds of grain from Damingfu grain merchants. Such a mountain of grain cannot be returned to Bianliang, Tokyo. And I predict that the thieves of the Jin Kingdom will I am afraid that within ten months we will send our troops south."
"Hebei, Shandong, and Shanxi may all be in danger of falling by then, so we need to prepare early."
The two of them did not have Gao Kan's foresight, but they had no doubts about his strategic planning.
Now that he has said this, I am afraid that war will happen sooner or later, not to mention that even if nothing happens, this preparation is appropriate.
Jiang Jing thought for a moment and then asked, "Master, what do you need me to do?"
Gao Kan explained: "The first batch of grain has been loaded on the ship. Early tomorrow morning, I will ask the second master to lead the brothers in Huangmen Mountain to escort this batch to Neihuang first, and then find the carriages and horses from Neihuang to transport the grain up the mountain. go."
"In a few days, I will set off from Daming Mansion and lead troops over. At that time, the second master can go down the mountain to recruit surrender."
"I understand." Jiang Jing nodded.
Yang Zhi heard this and asked again: "But Master, where did our soldiers and horses come from?"
"Haha, don't worry, Coach Yang. Since Mr. Zhongshu asked me to wipe out Huangmen Mountain for him, he must give me some soldiers and horses. Do you want me to go there with bare hands?"
Gao Kan smiled and explained.
In fact, he had already prepared, not only wanted Liang Zhongshu to have troops and horses, but also wanted a name in the garrison.
Otherwise, after taking Huangmen Mountain, how can we have the right to settle the people on the mountain?
In the future, if Huangmen Mountain is to be used as a foundation to expand its strength, it will also need to be recorded with official documents. Otherwise, it will not mean that the bandits are still kings of the mountains and sooner or later they will be called in by the government and the army to suppress them.
