Chapter 14: Getting to Know Ruda
Feng Ye easily settled Lu Ti's account, and if you want to make friends, you can't be too stingy. Luda is a person with a bold personality, and he didn't pay attention to any tea money.
The three of them left the teahouse, and they didn't go far when they saw a stall selling strong pills on the street, and there were still a lot of onlookers.
This Li Zhong is also an honest man, a good martial artist, although he is not ranked among the one hundred and eight demon gods in Liangshan, but his ability is also stronger than that of ordinary people in the rivers and lakes, and finally mixed to the extent of selling strong pills on the street, and he is not as good as a scoundrel and gangster in his life, and when he mixes it up, there is no one in the entire Water Margin.
Shi Jin invited him to drink together, and this product was busy selling medicine to make money. Shirked: "You go first, wait for me to sell the medicine and collect the money, and then I will go to the restaurant to find you." ”
In fact, Feng Ye can still understand Li Zhong's mood, not that he is unwilling to go out with his friends, but that the economic conditions do not allow it.
Once or twice, let a friend have a treat, but can you always let a friend have a treat? They are all face-saving people, and they always have to be invited back. But if you don't have the money to ask back, you will be stingy. When Feng Ye had no money, when he and Li Lemu Chi went out to play, they were all in the same mood. For going out to play, if you can shirk it, you can shirk it.
Feng Ye could understand Li Zhong's shyness, but in Lu Tixia's opinion, this kind of person was just unhappy. Immediately shouted and scolded at the crowd of onlookers: "Get out of the crowd with ** for the sprinklers." If you don't leave, you're going to do it. ”
Not to mention that Luda was strong and strong, he was dressed as an officer, so how could ordinary people dare to provoke him? The crowd immediately dispersed. Li Zhong was originally carrying a tray and preparing to sell medicine to collect money, after all, he had been tossing for a long time, and there would be a harvest soon, but he saw that the crowd was dispersed, so he could only dare to pack up his things and follow up.
Luda is familiar with the land, and directly took them to the more famous Panjia Hotel in this area. The four of them sat down, Feng Ye called Xiao Er, and ordered: "If you have any good dishes in the store, just serve them, and then have a jar of the best wine." ”
Xiao Er looked at Luda, and when he saw that Luda had no opinion, he went down.
The group talked about fists, feet, sticks, a few glasses of wine, and talked happily. It's just that Feng Ye waited for a long time, but he didn't wait for the sound of crying. couldn't help but say secretly: "It's over, my butterfly wings are fanned, maybe the day is missed, maybe the time is missed, Jin Cuilian's father and daughter didn't cry today." ”
If it weren't for Lu Ti's three punches to kill the town of Guanxi, how could he have run away to become a monk in front of a good officer? How could he have fallen into the grass?
Just when Feng Ye was secretly anxious, sure enough, there was a faint cry from next door. It's not too obvious, Ruda and the others are chatting hotly, and they don't have an idea of the crying next door at all.
Feng Ye hurriedly called: "Xiao Er, who is the person next door? Why are you crying here, isn't it your shop bullying customers and bullying other people's female relatives?" Feng Ye's words immediately attracted the attention of the three people who were discussing the gun stick.
Xiao Er hurriedly said in a panic: "This guest officer doesn't dare to talk nonsense, next door is a father and daughter singing in the store, I don't know that the officials are drinking here." ”
"But I don't believe it, if you go and call his father and daughter over, are you bullying people, I will know as soon as I ask. Feng Ye said strongly.
After a while, Xiao Er brought two people in, a beautiful girl of eighteen or nineteen years old, and a dry old man.
Ruda was the first to ask, "Where are you two from, and why are you crying here?"
The girl said sadly: "My father and daughter were originally from the capital, and they came here to join their relatives, but they didn't expect their relatives to move. My father and daughter live here, and there is a rich man here who is nicknamed "Zhen Guanxi".
forcibly married a slave family as a concubine, and agreed on a pawn money of 3,000 yuan, who wanted to sign the contract, but Zheng Daguan did not give the money. Before three months, the slave family was kicked out by his wife. He still wants to get back the 3,000 yuan pawn money, where does the slave family have the money to give him? The money he sells and sings every day these days is not enough to give him interest. ”
Luda asked, "What's your surname, that Zheng Daguan, where does your family live?"
The old man replied: "The old man's surname is Jin, and his daughter's name is Cuilian, so the official Zheng is Zheng Tu, who sells meat under the Zhuangyuan Bridge." ”
Luda scolded angrily when he heard this: "Phew, I thought it was a Zheng official, it turned out to be Zheng Tu who killed pigs and sold meat, a dog-like thing, and he dared to bully people like this." Wait a minute, I'll kill that guy and come back." ”
Shi Jin and Li Zhong hurriedly stepped forward to grab Luda, only saying that it was getting late, and persuaded him to go again tomorrow.
Luda was angry and said to the old man: "Lao'er, the Sprinkle family will give you some entanglement, and I will take your daughter back to Tokyo tomorrow!"
The old man said: "If you can go back to your hometown, then of course, the great kindness of Engong, my father and daughter, will never forget, but the store refuses to let people go." ”
Ruda said: "You don't have to pay attention to this, I have my own way." ”
After Luda finished speaking, he touched his body, took out five taels of silver, and put it on the table, how much do you have on you, lend it to me first, and pay it back tomorrow.
Shi Jin took out ten taels of silver and put it on the table, and said, "What is this money?
Luda looked at Li Zhong again, Li Zhong took out two taels of silver with a buckle and a rope, Luda saw that it was only two taels, and suddenly said with some disgust: "It's not a cool person." ”
Li Zhong's face was red when he was said, but it was not easy to refute, he was really poor. How much money can a person who sells Diana pills on the street? Not to mention that he still has to practice martial arts, and the cost is not small. was able to take out two taels of silver, but he was already gritting his teeth, but he didn't expect that he would still be underestimated. I just didn't dare to fight back.
Feng Ye knew that his chance to perform had arrived, and without waiting for Luda to speak, he took out twenty taels of silver, slapped it on the table, and said boldly: "Brother, just take it." "It's not that he can't take out more, but he needs to take care of Shi Jin and Li Zhong's face.
Feng Ye's purpose is to leave a good impression on Luda first, and when it comes to Liangshan to compete for the boss in the future, he will have a lot of supporters.
When Feng Ye and Shi Jin got up the next day, they heard that Lu Tizhi had killed Zhen Guanxi and fled. The two of them set off again to Yan'an to find Wang Jin. The purpose of Feng Ye's trip has been achieved, the people he wants to make friends with have already been made, and now it is time to make a name for himself in the rivers and lakes.
"Da Lang, I now feel that this Great Song Dynasty is becoming more and more corrupt, the faint monarch and traitorous ministers are in power, the court is serious in levying taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and even selling official beards, such a court is not worthy of my service. Princes and generals, I am ready to create a career. Feng Ye said to Shi Jin.
This is almost a blatant rebellion, and Shi Jin is not stupid, of course he can hear it. It's just that he cares more about his innocent reputation, and he doesn't even want to fall into the grass, and of course he doesn't want to rebel. The two said to each other and parted.
