Chapter 82: The First Arrival

Qinzhou City is located in the central and western part of the Eight Hundred Miles Pass. It is more than 400 miles away from Xijing. It is surrounded by SD on three sides and looks at Xijing, and is connected to Yanzhou in the north. In ancient times, it was the activity area of the Qin people, and the geographical location was related and important, and it has always been a battleground for soldiers. If you control Qinzhou, you can whip the whip eastward, and the Central Plains will be at your fingertips. Even in peacetime, it was also the last post on the Silk Road to leave the Central Plains. The pattern of the city is different from that of other state cities, and after thousands of years of changes, the Wei River and the Thousand Rivers divide the city into four major urban areas: east, west, north and south. Each city can be divided into a number of squares. The most famous ones are Zhuangyuan Fang, Wenjing Fang, Wuyun Fang, etc.

Just before Li Ying got married, Zhu Junjie, the owner of the Naling Mountain Martial Arts Pavilion, arranged for the housekeeper to come to the state city many times, inspected repeatedly, and after several twists and turns, he finally found an excellent courtyard in Linlingfang in the south city, called the Zhou family compound. It was once the villa of the landlord, but because the asking price was too high, no one cared about it for a long time, and after several researches, it cost tens of thousands of taels of silver to buy the land and give it to Li Ying, Zhu Gui and others as a starting and ending residence. Here is Qinshan Mountain in the south, Weihe River in the north, and can be controlled in the south city and the west city.

On June 18, Zhu Gui and his entourage of 10 people moved in first. In the future, Li Ying, Liu Jianwu, and Xiao Shiqian moved in one after another. The last place to stay is Tyumen. Because Li Ying's kung fu still needs guidance, and the Taoist chief also hopes that Qiuming will also come to Zhoucheng to practice. These families live in the inner courtyard, and the front yard is operated by Zhu Gui for medicinal materials. Before Li Ying left, Junjie told him that the eastern and northern cities were controlled by local forces, and only the western and southern cities were in a situation of rivalry, and they could do something.

By the end of June, everything was renovated. In order to open on the auspicious day of early July, on this day, Zhu Guizheng and several brothers brought by the martial arts hall sorted out the counter and placed the seats.

At this time, a few idlers came from outside the door, and it seemed that they were some local thugs. One of them, with a bitter face and eyes like a mouse, looked at the anger, he was really crazy and uninhibited, and his eyes were empty. It seems that this group is leading the way.

The group of people came to the store and went directly to the main hall, and the entourage didn't care what Zhu Gui and the others were doing, so they directly invited the person to the main seat, and one of them hurriedly wiped the Taishi chair with his sleeve. The man was not polite, and sat on the Taishi chair, and there were already a few people next to him who were busy fanning the man. Zhu Gui put down the work in his hand, walked to him, and said with a smile on his face: "A few masters, this store is still under renovation, a few people came, I don't know what to see." ”

But the man did not answer. Just to enjoy another man carrying birds.

Another narrow-faced man next to him asked Zhu Gui, "Where are you from and what kind of store do you open?" ”

Zhu Gui smiled and said: "No, Zhu Gui, a native of Lingshan County, is about to open a medicinal herb shop." Just because our store has not yet opened, I hope you will forgive me for any inconsiderateness. ”

Hearing this, the narrow-faced man obviously became a little angry, and said, "Who gave you permission to open a shop here?" ”

Then Zhu Gui said: "Naturally, there is a certificate issued by the state government. ”

When the group heard what he said, they laughed, and the narrow-faced man said with a straight face: "The state capital's certificate is a **, you go and inquire, in our Linlingfang, without our brother Ma's permission, I see who can drive it." ”

As soon as Zhu Gui was obedient and did not speculate, he said: "The people of Emperor Wu, who paid the national tax on imperial grain, and the surname of the Son of Heaven is ×, since he has obtained a license from the state government, he has not heard of any reason to pay any other cats and dogs. ”

As soon as these words came out, the idler changed color unexpectedly, and the narrow-faced man stared at Zhu Gui and said: "Yo, the kid is quite fat, and he dares to call his brothers a cat and a dog, and a few brothers loosen his muscles and bones." As soon as the words fell, the idlers behind him opened their posture and prepared to move. There are a few jobs in the store here that are also in hand, ready to defend.

At this time, I heard a father-in-law's voice coming: "Slow! A few of the guys here were itching to hear it, and following the voice, the voice was coming from the bitter face. The bitter gall didn't raise his head to tease the bird, and continued to say in the father-in-law's voice: "I said can you speak politely, since people don't want to, let's forget it, then come to congratulate him when it opens, and leave!" After speaking, he got up again, and didn't even look at Zhu Gui, as if Zhu Gui was air.

The gang took a stand while the father-in-law was talking, and hurriedly followed the man. The narrow-faced man still sighed fiercely, and whispered to Zhu Gui: "The surname is Zhu, you are in big trouble." ”

Zhu Gui didn't show weakness, so he ignored him and continued to take people to tidy up the store, just waiting to open.
