After hearing this, Ping'an replied with a hint of worry on his face: "Those who come here want to leave this place to live a peaceful life, but I don't know if this wish can be realized." ”

"Young man, who are you?" asked the lady next to Ping'an's family curiously, she looked at Ping'an's speech and looked like she had gone to school, which seemed to be different from their poor families.

The expression on Ping'an's face became even more sad after hearing this, and his voice was slightly hoarse to tell the story of a nobleman in a town who was framed by the mayor of the town and ruined his family, and he and his sister were forced to go away, the location of the story is not a problem at all, Ping'an has seen the map of Hengyuan and found a few remote places, which is too simple for him.

When several old women heard what happened to Ping'an, they were very sympathetic to him, and some of them had shallow eye sockets and even left tears, and Murong Yanyu looked stupid beside her, almost believing what Ping'an said.

Ping An chatted like this, not without gain, one of the aspects was to dispel the curiosity of several neighbors, and on the other hand, they knew a lot about Hope City from the mouths of several old women.

In chatting with several eldest ladies, Ping An learned that all the work here is controlled by several major forces in the city, and the major forces have almost divided all the interests in the city, so those who come here must join the three major gangs, or join the city lord's mansion.

Hope that the biggest force on the face of the city is naturally the city lord, after all, he has the support of the entire border defenders behind him, which is incomparable to other forces, and at the same time, he dare not offend.

In addition to the city lord forces, there are three major gang forces, the Fuxing Gang, the Feiyun Gang, and the Forget Worry Gang.

The Fuxing Gang is in charge of the sale of houses and weapons and armor here, and it is very powerful, with a lot of people and money, and it is very powerful.

The Feiyun Gang is in charge of all restaurants, taverns, green houses, and other industries, and their strength is also very strong.

The Forget Worry Gang is in charge of the Forget Worry Pavilion and all the pharmacies and pawnshops in the city.

As for the rice, flour, grain and oil shops, they were under the management of the imperial court.

Ping An heard a lot of questions from this, and these questions still need to be confirmed, which is a major matter related to the lives of the two people.

He didn't expect Hope City to be so complicated, and what made him speechless the most was that Hengyuan Country didn't even have the ability to manage border cities, which he didn't expect.

After Ping'an finished chatting with his neighbors, he began to take Murong towards the main street in the city, and while walking Ping'an, he told Murong what he had heard, Murong was also very surprised after hearing it, and at the same time she was also very depressed, she thought that after coming to Hengyuan Kingdom, she could escape the pursuit of Shenwu Kingdom, but now it seems that she thinks simply.

Since Ping An guessed that the Forget Worry Pavilion was opened by other countries, then this Forget Worry Gang is likely to be a gang supported by other countries, so it seems that the other two gangs must be supported by the other two countries, otherwise it can't be exactly three big gangs, and there are no other gangs.

And the forces on the side of the city lord don't care about the gangs to divide the interests of the hope city, only the three gangs have the support of the three major countries behind them, so it makes sense. After all, no one is afraid of money.

It's just that these rice shops, grain and oil stores, obviously, the city lord will not operate them, and they will not engage in any kind of collection of protection money, and it seems that there are still things he doesn't know.

Murong Yanyu accompanied Ping An all the way, and Ping An was thinking, until after the two walked back and forth on the main street twice, Murong couldn't help but ask, "Have you come up with an idea?"

After hearing this, Ping An stopped and sighed softly: "I have an idea, but I don't think I'm satisfied, so I want to see if I can come up with another idea." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up. Murong Yanyu knew that Ping An was worried about her, but the more Ping An did this, the more she felt useless.

Ping An naturally couldn't guess what Murong was thinking in his heart, but he could see that Murong was a little unhappy, and said after grinning secretly: "The three major gangs may be supported by the three major countries, so we can't go to these three families, and there is only one place we can go, and that is to enter the power of the City Lord's Mansion, so that we can not only figure out the details of the three major gangs, but also get a backer." But the disadvantage is that after you enter the City Lord's Mansion, there are too many uncertainties inside, the four major forces here seem to be peaceful, and there will definitely be a fight in secret, and you are afraid that a beginner-level power venerable will not be able to protect yourself inside. ”

As soon as Ping An finished speaking, Murong Yanyu replied directly: "It's so decided, let's go back and study the specific plan after eating something." ”

Ping'an looked at Murong Yanyu with a resolute face, and surprisingly did not refute, he knew that he had no other plan at all, there was only this way to go, they couldn't choose the three major gangs like others, once they chose to join the gang supported by the Shenwu Kingdom, they would definitely die.

The two walked around and returned home, Murong asked Ping An to make a plan, Ping An had already planned it, and now what was missing was a recommender to introduce Murong to the people in the City Lord's Mansion, so that he could have a chance to enter it.

While practicing attack moves in the courtyard, Ping An thought about where to find such a person, thinking about it, or using the previous method, going to the restaurant, there must be someone at the yamen, as long as you use a little money, it is not difficult to get the opportunity to be recommended.

Ping An thought very well, but when the two of them walked out of the house the next day, several ladies sitting outside chatting called Ping An and the two over, and the neighbor aunt knew that they had not found a job by looking at the anxious expressions on their faces.

One of the aunts surnamed He saw the two of them pitiful, and directly told them that his son Zhang Youcai was working in the yamen, and yesterday she asked his son, Zhang Youcai was willing to help them introduce, and he was overjoyed after hearing it, and was naturally grateful to the tears.

In this way, the two of them solved the problem before they went out, and that night, the two of them came to Mrs. He's house and saw her son Zhang Youcai, who thought that the other party was a literati from the name, but when they met and saw the explosive muscles on Zhang Youcai's body, they grinned secretly, and said that the name Mrs. He gave Zhang Youcai was too deceptive.

Zhang Youcai glanced at the two of them after they entered the house, and when he saw that Murong Yanyu was a junior powerhouse at a young age, he was shocked, but when he saw the strength of Ping'an's body, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.

Ping An took in Zhang Youcai's expression, smiled helplessly, stepped back, and became Murong Yanyu's little follower, Murong Yanyu secretly smiled when he saw this, took two steps forward and hugged his fists to salute, Zhang Youcai also returned the salute, after all, he was only a high-level wrestler, and in front of the junior Lizun, he naturally did not dare to be rude.

After the two sides finished the ceremony, Zhang Youcai got straight to the point and said: "I heard my mother say that you are very pitiful, let me help you, I can't go against my mother's wishes, so I will help you find something to do, as for this benevolent brother named Niu Er, with all due respect, you should stay at home as far as your cultivation is concerned, it is easy to die outside when you go out and walk around, and it is not peaceful here." ”

After hearing this, Aunt He opened her mouth and scolded Zhang Youcai for two sentences, then turned to look at Ping'an, and asked him not to be careful, you are talented and fast-talking, let him not go to his heart.

Pingxin said that this family is strange enough, and it is good not to persuade him, but if he persuades him, he will make himself even more depressed.

Murong Yanyu almost laughed out loud when he looked at Ping'an's depressed appearance, but fortunately, Ping'an retreated in time, Murong Yanyu remembered the matter and hurriedly asked, "Brother Cai, can you tell me about the Yamen?"

Youcai did not doubt him, and said bluntly: "Yamen, hmph, except for a few good people, the rest of them are a bunch of bastards who eat and wait for death, they are the cronies of the border generals, and they came here to help him collect money."

"I hope that the city lord is his dog, and they don't care about the lives of the people, they only care about the amount of money they collect. The only people who are really doing things are those of us who have been recruited, and we have to agree to do things with the consent of those people, every time we look at ....."

Aunt He saw that her son was more and more speechless, and hurriedly slapped her son twice, and scolded: "Do you still want your mother to live for two more years, my mother told you at the beginning, your temper is not suitable for going to work in the yamen, you have to go, if you talk like this, our mother will die here sooner or later." ”

After hearing this, Ping An nodded with deep sympathy, Zhang Youcai's character is indeed not suitable for going to the yamen, there are too many dark places in the yamen, and he will kill himself if he is so impulsive.
