Chapter 15 The Righteous Knot Jinlan
As soon as the birthday banquet was over, Wu County ordered to return to the county government and immediately interrogate Du Tian and a group of criminals.
Wu County Ling made a verdict on the spot, Du Tian colluded with the ruffian to kidnap the beloved, and then had a quarrel over the issue of remuneration after the failure, so he started a fight, and after being beaten, he held a grudge, so he poisoned the diet and killed more than a dozen people, including Sun Batian.
Du Rong assisted Du Tian in committing the crime, provided poison, and was guilty of the same crime as Du Tian.
That night, Du Rong was arrested at his home. Wu County ordered the two to be sentenced to immediate execution, and at the same time reported to the Criminal Department for execution, and the family property was confiscated.
A month later, Du Rong Du Tian's father and son both died violently in prison, and the conclusion given after the autopsy was that the weather was hot and humid, and he died of illness.
Poor Du Rong's true character, because his son was young and frivolous, he finally died and the clan was wiped out, and I am afraid that he would not have thought that the young man who was only a glance in front of the Heavenly King's Palace was the culprit of the qiÄ of the guide......
A few days later, Shi Lei finally woke up and was able to walk with the help of others.
"Okay, Du Rong has been imprisoned, and the matter is over. It was only at this moment that Xu Chen was truly relieved.
Xu Chen was originally just an ordinary college graduate, and the tricks of fate brought him to a strange world, which made him a little confused. In the past few days, he has been calculating and killing, and he has long exceeded his previous limit, if he hadn't seen too much of the ups and downs in the history books and knew that it was useless to escape when things came to an end, plus a ruthlessness in his temperament, I am afraid he would have collapsed.
"Brother Chen, thank you. Lu Ying has regained her original lively temperament in the past few days.
"What's polite, if you hadn't brought me food every day, I'm afraid I would have starved to death. ā
"That's because you don't want to come out to eat," Lu Ying muttered.
Xu Chen had no choice but to touch his nose in embarrassment.
Not long after, Lu Hao, Wang Tieniu, and Zhou Kang returned to the wing room with Shi Lei, who went out to move his body.
After a life and death, the bond between several young people has deepened.
Xu Chen looked at everyone, and suddenly felt that he was in this strange world, and he was no longer lonely.
"I have a mention yƬ, why don't we bow a few times, from now on, we will be brothers!"
Everyone was taken aback by Xu Chen's suggestion, and immediately became overjoyed.
"Okay, Brother Chen, we will be our boss from now on!" Xiao Shi happily raised his bandaged hand and waved it vigorously.
"Okay, I agree. ā
"I agree. ā
Pi Monkey and Zhou Kang also agreed successively.
Immediately, Xu Chen looked at Lu Hao, just as Lu Hao's gaze turned around, the two looked at each other for a moment, Lu Hao nodded and said, "Okay!"
"Okay, let's stop those false courtesies, let's worship the emperor and queen soil in the courtyard. Xu Chen took the lead and walked out of the door.
"Good" everyone rushed out.
Five teenagers knelt down in a row in the courtyard.
"Hey, Xiao Yingying, why are you standing there stupidly, why don't you come over quickly!" Shi Lei turned around and said.
"Stinky stones, you're looking for a fight!" Lu Yingchu still had a hint of intention when she heard Xu Chen's mention of yƬ, but after thinking about it, she immediately understood something, and she couldn't take a step anymore.
"Yingying, what are you doing, everyone is waiting for you!" Tie Niu saw that Lu Ying still didn't move, and turned around.
Lu Ying lowered her head, grabbed the corners of her skirt with her two small hands, and no matter how others called her, she just shook her head vigorously, but she refused to take a step.
Lu Hao, Xu Chen had no choice but to shake his head helplessly.
The five teenagers, who have worshiped heaven and earth, learned from the people in the rivers and lakes, said a lot of "life and death together" words, and talked about the year, although Xu Chen can't know exactly how big his body is at the moment, but with his actual age, he is the boss of these hairy boys, and there is no psychological pressure at all.
As a result, Xu Chen was the largest, followed by Lu Hao, followed by Wang Tieniu, Zhou Kang, and Shi Lei was the youngest. Everyone called out "eldest brother, second brother, third brother, fifth brother".
"Big brother, what should we do next?" Lu Hao said to the young man in front of him who was not much older than himself, and said to him sincerely.
"Next, I'm ready to ......"
Xu Chen briefly told his plan.
A few days later, Xu Chen's injuries began to heal, and he went out to work. Since he has come to this world, he always has to survive here, although it is now the prosperous Tang Dynasty, but not to mention the turmoil in ten years, even now he can't just be a beggar under the fence.
Always solve the problem of food and clothing first, the science and technology tree is not daring to climb randomly, a small fang is so scheming, if he makes a big move now, it is estimated that he will be destroyed when he turns his head, so he has to think of some ways to deal with nearby resources first.
Xu Chen stopped in front of a courtyard in the northwest corner of "Chongrenfang" under the guidance of Tie Niu, this is the deputy Fang Zheng He Chang, oh, it should be called He Fangzheng now, after Du Rong was imprisoned, Wu County Commander straightened He Chang.
"The old man was bored, and he said, 'Huangcheng Temple', Xu Chen asked to see him. Xu Chen knocked on the door and handed over the greeting post and the gifts he bought on the road.
He Chang is drinking tea in the backyard at the moment, since the correction, He Chang can be said to be physically and mentally comfortable, this time not only Du Rong was knocked down, he got his wish to sit in the square seat, and more importantly, he gave the county Zun a strategy, so that the county Zun made a lot of money, Wu Xianzun also praised himself personally, and wanted to take the line of the county Zun after coming, and his position should be able to move up.
The housekeeper of He Mansion handed over Xu Chen's greeting post, and a few words on the cover made He Chang's eyes light up, this He Chang has also read books for a few years and practiced a few strokes, and at this moment he couldn't help but praise "Good words!"
After opening it and reading it carefully, He Chang straightened up suddenly.
"Where are the people now?"
"Back to the master, he is still waiting outside the door!" "The housekeeper of He Mansion has been promoted in the past two days, and the number of people who came to visit him has suddenly increased, and he has long been a little bored, so although Xu Chen has already given a gift today, he just asked Xu Chen to wait outside the door, and after the communication, the master will decide whether to see or not.
"Quick, open the middle door to welcome guests! He Chang didn't bother to care about the housekeeper's careful thoughts, and hurriedly ordered.
Although the butler was puzzled, he also knew that it should be a great guest, so he went down to command his subordinates.
"Haha, the distinguished guest welcomes the door, He Mou has lost his welcome, and the faux pas are still looking at Haihan!" Before the door was fully opened, He Chang's hearty laughter came out.
Xu Chen hurriedly turned around to salute, "He Fang is strict, the market boy took the liberty to come to the door, and he saw that Fang Zheng's dignity was already a great Xin, how dare he bother Fang Zheng to greet him personally." ā
Xu Chen's young face surprised He Chang, and then became more enthusiastic.
He Chang walked down the steps and pulled Xu Chen into the mansion.
In the middle hall of He Fu, He Chang Xu Chen sat down as a guest.
"I heard that a month ago, Master Huineng rescued a teenager from the river, I don't know ......"
"It was under Xia that the abbot Xin rescued me and took me to live in the temple, which is really ashamed. ā
"The virtuous nephew talks extraordinary, not like an orphan. He Chang immediately changed the title after confirmation.
"I'm ashamed to say that I have studied at home for a few years, but my family has fallen into the middle of the road, and the elders of the clan have passed away one after another, leaving me as an unfilial son, wandering outside, begging for a living, and now I dare not mention the family name, so as not to shame my ancestors. ā
Xu Chen then combined with the previous version, flickering little by little, anyway, he didn't dare to confront Huineng.
"Alas... The virtuous nephew's life is bleak, and it is rare not to forget the clan, and with a little effort in the future, there will be a day when he returns to his hometown and returns to his hometown. He Chang didn't care whether Xu Chen's words were true or false.
came and went, and the two were familiar with half-truths and half-truths.
Xu Chen saw that He Chang had been chatting for so long and had been gossiping, so he had to sigh secretly, "Old fox", who let himself be asked for others, so he could only speak first.
"Uncle Shi, the little nephew came here today, but he actually has something to ask for. ā
"The meat is coming," He Chang said secretly.
"The virtuous nephew said that it doesn't matter, as long as it is Uncle Shi and I can do it, I will never refuse. ā
"Uncle Shi also knows that there is a group of young people around me, all of whom are orphans of the 'Relief Workshop', and I have an idea to let these young people support themselves and reduce the burden on the workshop. Xu Chen said.
"Oh, let's hear it!"
"Uncle Shi must also know that our 'Chongren Fang' is close to the East Lake, and there are many fishermen selling fish in the workshop, but there is no formal market in the workshop, I wonder if we can set up a special fish market near the East Lake, gather the fishermen, and it is also convenient to manage, as for the farmers in this fish market, these lonely and widowed teenagers can be responsible. Xu Chen said slowly.
"This ......"
"Of course, if you have a fish market, of course, you must have a management officer, and as for the candidate, it is up to Uncle Shi to decide. ā
He Chang looked at Xu Chen, lowered his head and pondered.
Xu Chen was not in a hurry, took a sip of tea and moistened his throat.
"These fishermen in the workshop are usually filled with all corners of the workshop, which is difficult to manage, not to mention, and easy to breed trouble, so it is convenient to have a unified place to manage. What's more, these fishermen have never paid a penny of taxes and fees before, and all this money was handed over to those hooligans and ruffians in the form of 'protection fees', but they didn't get a penny, with this market, this money can have their own share, of course, this tax collection is still handed over to this Xu Chen, if there is no benefit, can this Xu Chen do things with peace of mind. ā
He often thought.
"This matter is a matter of importance, but it is not something that I can call the decision with a small fang, and I have to report to the county respect, and the adults are in charge. ā
"That's right, I've heard the abbot master say that these fishermen live in poverty, and the money they get from selling the fish is all cheaper than the ruffians and bullies in the end, and it's better to have an official fang market under the management. Xu Chen pulled out this tiger skin again, and bragged about not paying taxes anyway.
"Oh, is it?" He Chang naturally understands the energy of this abbot, as an old rival, Du Rong has been patronizing the Huangcheng Temple every day for so many years, he naturally knows, if he can't find out something, he won't be able to go today.
"Okay, I'll report to the county as it is. ā
"Thank you, Uncle Shi, so that the little nephew will leave first. Xu Chen stood up and saluted.
"Don't worry, nephew, I've already instructed the kitchen to prepare a table, let's eat before leaving. He Chang warmly held Xu Chen.
"In this way, then it will be bothering!" happened to be hungry, and he could still get a good meal for nothing, but he hadn't eaten a serious meal since he crossed over, Xu Chen thought to himself.
ā¦ā¦
After the banquet.
"Sir, why are you so enthusiastic about this beggar?" the butler wondered.
"Do you remember the news that came that night?" He Chang had to patiently explain to this loyal old slave.
"Of course I remember!" It can be said that the master of his own house can turn the right thing by the note that night, and the old housekeeper will naturally not forget it.
"Didn't you notice that the words on the note and today's prayer note were written by one person?"
