The person who came was Song Jingtao, the corners of Zhou Bo's mouth were filled with excitement, and he said softly, "Go save money." ”
Although Zhou Bo's face was still smiling, those deep eyes slowly narrowed, slender, but there was a sharp cold light in them. If Zhu Tao saw Zhou Bo's expression at this time, I believe he would not accept Zhou Bo's money no matter what.
Song Jingtao also felt the chill in Zhou Bo's eyes, and caught the murderous aura revealed in his deep eyes, and his heart couldn't help but tremble, is it
Today, Zhu Tao is still drinking tea in the study, as if he has read all the joys of the world, except for beauty and money, there are few things that can make him passionate. However, today made him excited, because the official at home reported that Zhou Gongzi of the Song Mansion had arrived, and he also brought a lot of gifts.
Hearing the word gift, Zhu Tao's eyes suddenly lit up, and it seemed that Zhou Bo had succeeded in taking over Hebei Mountain this time. Thinking about the gifts sent by Zhou Bo in the past, the dim eyes under the bloated face and greasy eyelids also glowed.
Putting down his previous value, Zhu Tao greeted him in person this time.
Seeing Zhou Bo, Zhu Tao let out a hearty laugh and said, "Haha, it's good that the virtuous nephew is here, why do you still bring so many gifts." Looking at the cart of the Song Mansion, he also estimated the value inside, and the light in his eyes became even brighter.
Zhou Bo didn't show any arrogance, it seemed that he was still the son of the Song Mansion before, and he didn't have a village owner at all. bowed to the end and said, "Uncle, the little nephew is polite." ”
Pulling Zhou Bo up, his eyes unconsciously drifted to the gift behind Zhou Bo, "Virtuous nephew." None of us are outsiders. Hurry up and get free. ”
Zhou Boxin said: If these gifts are exempted, it is estimated that it will be difficult for him to enter this mansion. I know it. didn't break it, and the two entered Zhu Tao's study hand in hand.
Zhu Tao sat down. Zhou Bo refused to sit down.
Looking at the hesitation on Zhou Bo's face, Zhu Tao guessed that there must be something to say to himself, so he hurriedly withdrew from the people in the room and asked, "Virtuous nephew, what is difficult about you?"
Zhou Bo sighed, licked his lips, and the corners of his eyes drooped. His brows were furrowed, and his face was bitter. If it were today's society, Zhou Bo would probably be an excellent actor.
"Virtuous nephew, what's wrong, tell me quickly!"
Seeing Zhou Bo's expression, Zhu Tao's heart sank, could it be that the affairs of Hebei Mountain had been messed up? But Zhou Bo had obviously sent so many gifts to himself, wasn't it the spoils of Hebei Mountain? Zhu Tao was puzzled, but when he thought of Hebei Mountain, his heart became even heavier, because he had not received any news that Hebei Mountain had been recovered at all.
"Uncle. Actually, it's nothing, it's just that the gifts for you are a little less. ”
"Oh. This is not "What Zhou Bo said was too far from what he thought, Zhu Tao didn't react for a while, and rubbed his neck with his hand. "That...... Nephew, what are the gifts you gave me?"
"Three thousand taels of silver. ”
Flattened mouth, Zhu Tao was very disappointed in his heart, this is too far from his expectations, it is said that if the huge Hebei Mountain is returned to Zhou Bo, even if he gives himself 30,000 taels of silver, it is not much. After thinking about it, it must be that Zhou Bo did not take Hebei Mountain, and used the silver to make amends for his sins.
If you don't take Hebei Mountain, the Song Mansion will be considered to be busy in vain, and it will also build a lot of silver. Zhu Tao is a little reluctant to go now. But since it was his own, Zhu Tao did not have the habit of returning the silver.
"Virtuous nephew, how are things going in Hebei Mountain?" asked Zhu Tao.
"Uncle, things are going well on the side of Hebei Mountain, and I am now the owner of Hebei Mountain. Zhou Bo said slowly, still with that sad look between his eyebrows.
As soon as he heard that Zhou Bo was already the owner of the village, Zhu Tao suddenly sank his face, if it was not for his own help, how could Zhou Bo become the owner of the village, and the property of Hebei Mountain that had been said in advance was half of one person, and now Zhou Bo only gave himself three thousand taels of silver, which made this county commander who regarded wealth as his life feel a big loss.
"Okay, you ungrateful Zhou Bo! Aren't you just crossing the river and demolishing the bridge? Not to mention anything else, have you forgotten the original agreement between the two of us, and now you still claim to be the owner of a cottage, I think you are underestimating the official authority of your own official, in this case, it seems that I am going to go up the mountain to suppress bandits. ”
Zhu Tao's mouth was full of beans at this time, and he stinted Zhou Bo again.
Unexpectedly, this official didn't have any of the city government, and his face changed faster than turning a book, Zhou Bo leisurely took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, lit it, and pulled over a chair casually and sat down. It's as if admiring this monkey-like prefectural order.
Zhu Tao scolded for a long time, looking at Zhou Bo's leisurely and complacent demeanor, his heart was a little hairy, could it be that he was pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger? As if he had seen through the heavens, Zhu Tao also found that his words just now were a little excessive, and smiled, "Uh...... Nephew, tell me what's going on in Hebei Mountain?"
Saying that, Zhu Tao hurriedly poured tea for Zhou Bo, and stood beside Zhou Bo as if he was apologizing. A county order actually poured tea for an ordinary person at this time, if it wasn't for his personal experience, Zhou Bo still couldn't believe it.
With a sad face, Zhou Bo sighed and said, "Uncle, you misunderstood me. ”
"The huge Hebei Mountain, with hundreds of minions up and down, how can you easily and willingly let me be the owner of this village?"
Zhu Tao nodded in understanding and motioned for Zhou Bo to continue.
"Actually, I'm just hanging the title of the lord of the village now, and my people barely obey me, but I'm an outsider after all, and it's hard to guarantee that they won't oppose me. And these thieves are all masters who regard wealth as their lives, so I didn't dare to mobilize the silver of Hebei Mountain, and the gift to your uncle was also taken from our Song Mansion. ”
Zhu Tao nodded again and again, regretting what he had just said. He didn't know how Zhou Bo became the owner of the big village in Hebei Mountain, and now it sounds like Zhou Bo is just a puppet, which makes sense. He knows the thieves in Hebei Mountain very well, and it must have taken a lot of trouble for Zhou Bo to sit on this puppet master, now think about it, Zhou Bo is also licking blood on the head of the knife, and he gave himself three thousand taels of silver......
Zhu Tao was so grateful that tears were almost pouring out. Even the three thousand taels of silver. Zhu Tao also almost shirked back.
But Zhu Tao is Zhu Tao after all. A duck that reaches its beak can't spit it out. Rubbing his thighs, Zhu Tao was a little speechless, and picked up the teapot, "Virtuous nephew, I'll pour you tea." ”
"Well, uncle, this tea is full, and I haven't moved yet. ”
Laughed dryly twice. Zhu Tao calmed down for a while, his face was like a calm lake, without any expression. "Virtuous nephew, it's really hard for you, if there is a problem on the side of Hebei Mountain in the future, just tell my uncle, don't worry, I will definitely help. ”
Zhou Bo once again saw Zhu Tao's ability to change his face, and his heart was shocked, even if he was a master of changing his face today. I'm afraid it's not as fast as Zhu Tao. As for Zhu Taoxu's promise, Zhou Bo dealt with it as a fart. Zhou Bo knew, don't look at Zhu Tao's feet on the ground and his head against the sky when he spoke, his mouth was full of spittle, and his chest was slapping. If he really needs to be used, he has to rely on silver, if there is no money to pave the way for the two, Zhu Tao will not look at Zhou Bo.
Although Zhou Bo thought so in his heart, he still showed a grateful face, and said with a smile: "Uncle, I'm afraid I won't trouble you less in the future." ”
"Haha, virtuous nephew, just open your mouth if you have something, we don't have to see each other in such a relationship!" Zhu Tao agreed very happily, but the 'relationship' he said was a money relationship.
Zhu Tao has arranged it here, there are still many things to deal with on the mountains of Hebei, Zhou Bo will not stay for a long time, and say goodbye to Zhu Tao.
Zhu Tao left Zhou Bo to eat at the house before leaving, but was refused.
Knowing that Zhou Bo was going to deal with the affairs of Hebei Mountain, Zhu Tao nodded understandingly, and no longer forced him to stay, and personally sent Zhou Bo out of the house.
Until Zhou Bo and the others left, Zhu Tao quickly rushed to his study and pulled open the red cloth on the "gift". I was a little excited, and I picked up a silver ingot with trembling hands and rubbed it repeatedly on my face, as if the girl's pink **** was in my hand. The tongue of the uncontested is still on the silver ****, and the corner of the mouth inadvertently left a drop of saliva, but it is a pity that this dignified Qipin County Order is like a poor ghost living at this time.
Hebei Mountain is back on track under the leadership of Wu Jing, the cottage is in good order, seeing Zhou Bo and others saluting one after another, Zhou Bo also nodded with a smile, without any big village owner's shelf.
In front of the meeting hall, Zhou Qiang was looking around, full of anxiety. Seeing the arrival of Zhou Bo and others from afar, Zhou Qiang trotted all the way over.
stopped Zhou Bo, "Lord Dazhai, don't enter the meeting hall first, Brother Ang told me to wait for you here, let you go to the back hall first to discuss." ”
originally thought that Zhou Qiang was here to greet him, but he secretly complained in his heart that Zhou Qiang didn't have to bother with all these twists and turns, why should he see him outside because of his brothers. But after hearing Zhou Qiang's words, Zhou Bo was a little unhappy in his heart, calculate that today is the next day to become the owner of this village, what can he do, could it be that Wu Jing wants to give himself a dismount?
His mind was racing, but in an instant, this idea was vetoed by Zhou Bo, confident that he was very accurate in seeing people, since Wu Jing chose to follow him, he should not dismantle his own platform. Han smiled and nodded, and Zhou Bo and the others were brought into the back hall by the minions, and Zhou Qiang went to the conference hall to report the news.
The effort was not big, Wu Jing came in, saluted everyone, and without waiting for everyone to greet him, Wu Jing said in a deep voice: "Brother Zhou, there is a person in our cottage today, because this person's identity is special, so I didn't dare to let you meet him first." ”
Eyebrows flirted, since a person who can make Wu Jing so nervous is definitely not an ordinary person, Zhou Bo asked, "Who is he and what is he doing?"
Wu Jing sighed, "Although this person is not famous in our Kanto region, he is well hidden, ordinary people rarely know the inside story, and I only knew about it when I participated in the Kanto Society before." His name is Lang Ye, and his influence covers almost all the counties in Kanto, and he is a business boss on the surface, but I know that his strength can definitely rank in the top five in Kanto. ”
"Lang Ye?" Scratching his head, Zhou Bo muttered, "Why am I so familiar with this name?"
"What's the matter, Brother Zhou, do you know this person?"
Cheng Yu heard it clearly, and asked in a deep voice: "Zhou Bo, I remember that there was a man named Lang Ye in Lichun Courtyard last time, is this person Wu Jing talking about?"
Lang also had an impression in Zhou Bo's heart, and after Cheng Yu's suggestion, his heart suddenly lit up, and he remembered that there was indeed such a person named Lang Ye in Lichun Courtyard at that time. Looking back now, it is still fresh in his memory, because Zhou Bo clearly remembers that person once spoke the dialect of the island country.
Wu Jing faintly understood that Zhou Bo had also met this Lang, but it was too late to ask how they met: "Brother Zhou, I don't know if this person is here is a blessing or a curse!"
Zhou Bo, who took office on the first day, was led to the back hall by Wu Jing before he came to the meeting hall of Hebei Mountain, just because there was a "guest" from Hebei Mountain.
Wu Jing briefly introduced the meaning of this Lang Ye, Lang did not come empty-handed, and brought 10,000 taels of silver, which was a gift to Zhou Bo.
"Ten thousand taels?"
Even Song Jingtao, the young master of the Song Mansion, was taken aback, it was really unimaginable that the meeting gift alone was so heavy.
And the others were even more dumbfounded, Cheng Yu, Meng Liang and others were all people who were used to living a poor life, of course they knew how big the value of this ten thousand taels of silver was.
Zhou Bo grinned bitterly, "Ten thousand taels? This Lang is really a big deal." Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief. Looks like it's really hard to get the money! ”
Zhou Bo was not happy because of this heavy gift, but his face was full of sadness. Wu Jing looked at Zhou Bo's expression, and nodded in his heart, it seems that this village owner is looking at the long term, Wu Jing continued: "Brother Zhou, this money is really not easy to take, I always feel that there should be some conspiracy in this, but this Lang didn't tell me." Do you want this money or not?"
Hearing Wu Jing say this, Zhou Bo reestimated Lang Ye's strength again. After all, Wu Jing is the owner of the cottage, and he has always been the master of robbing the house, and now the silver in his hand has to be pushed out, it seems that this Lang is really tricky. His brows were furrowed, and his mind was racing. After a moment of silence, he said, "Let's talk about it when we meet." ”
"Brother Zhou. ”
"Huh?"
"Be careful when you speak, this Lang is not something we can provoke. ”
Zhou Bo nodded and smiled, and went straight to the conference hall.
Lang Ye, dressed as a grandfather, wears a square scarf and hat, a robe, thick boots, a jade belt around his waist, and hangs a piece of white jade. Lang was also very impressed by Zhou Bo, the last time he met in Lichun Courtyard, after which Lang Ye had been secretly observing Zhou Bo, until finally Zhou Bo successfully took over Hebei Mountain, which really surprised Lang Ye.
Moreover, there was such a big change in Hebei Mountain, which had a great conflict with Lang Ye's plan, and he had no choice but to find Zhou Bo in Hebei Mountain.
Lang was also taking a seat in the hall at this time, and when he saw Zhou Bo, he hurriedly stood up and hugged his fists, "Haha, Brother Zhou has become the owner of the village, it is really gratifying, and I came to visit here." ”
Although the voice made by the lips under the iconic beard was round, Zhou Bo still sounded so weird, and at the same time, he was even more sure that this Lang could definitely be from that island country. Zhou Bo has always been able to greet him, "If there is something to delay, one step late, don't be surprised by Mr. Lang, haha!"
Although Zhou Bo is full of spring breeze, his heart is like turning over the river and the sea, he only took over yesterday in Hebei Mountain, even Zhu Tao, the county magistrate of Haifeng County, did not hear the wind, but this Lang also knew it for the first time. It seems that he still underestimated this person's power, and he is more cautious in his heart.
After a simple greeting, the two sat down separately, and the next person gave the two of them tea. Zhou Bo has always been unaccustomed to drinking tea, and letting this contemporary young man who is used to drinking carbonated drinks go to taste tea, it is really a bit like a cow playing the piano, which spoils this superb Tieguanyin.
