Chapter 127: Xu Dabao's worries
The night in Shanning Village is still peaceful, and when everything is quiet, most of the villagers have fallen asleep. But among these sleeping people, Xu Dabao is not included.
He tossed and turned in bed for a long time, still not sleepy. Just because, he was very worried:
Lu Yongheng, who they call the Ninth Brother, is one of the two major forces in Jiangxing County and Yuping Town, and can be regarded as his top boss. Originally, he easily got mixed with Brother Jiu's younger brother Lu Yongcheng, that is, Brother Cheng's side, and hoped to be able to lean on the big tree in the future to enjoy the shade, but he didn't want to, suddenly, the people in the county arrested Brother Jiu and went directly to prison.
Brother Cheng dredged several times, but the result was in vain, because the crime convicted of Brother Jiu was selling smuggled salt.
Selling smuggled salt was also a felony in all dynasties, and it is even more forbidden in today's Dayan country. Once this crime is convicted, it is basically the lightest to be assigned to the frontier.
Xu Dabao doesn't know whether Brother Jiu sells smuggled salt, but nine times out of ten he has done it. There are two major forces in Jiangxing County, one is the ninth brother, and the other is Mu Xingqing, who is called Mu Laogou by them. Linning Prefecture is close to the sea, and naturally there are countless workshops for making sea salt. Jiangxing County is so close to the sea, how can these two forces not touch the illegal salt?
Although these two factions wanted to swallow each other and dominate Jiang Xing's fat meat before, the two parties have never been able to do so, so they are deadlocked. Until, Mu Xingqing sent a distant cousin to Chengrong Wenshan in Jiangxing County as a concubine.
Although Mu Xingqing did not become Rong Wenshan's brother-in-law, he also got married. Mu Xingqing's cousin is deeply liked by Rong Wenshan. As a result, the situation has become more and more unfavorable for their side recently. to the end. simply led the county lieutenant to arrest Brother Jiu.
Brother Jiu was arrested, and a little shrimp like Xu Dabao couldn't use his strength even if he was in a hurry. He was worried, what would he do in the future?
He doesn't want to be a farmer who does his duty. However, now that Brother Jiu has been arrested, but with Brother Cheng, I am afraid that they will not be able to stabilize their former power. Now many brothers who know each other are even interested in taking refuge in Mu Xingqing. But today, he beat Brother Qiu and his gang.
In this way, I am afraid that even if he wants to take refuge in Mu Laogou in the future, people will not accept him.
If it is really for Mu Laogou to control the entire Jiangxing County. At that time, even if he wants to stop fooling around, he can't just honestly do a small business.
"Hey!" Thinking about it, Xu Dabao turned over again. He sighed fiercely.
"Crackle!" The sound of flint and steel sounded in the room, which frightened Xu Dabao, and he turned over and sat up, and then. The eyes lit up.
An emaciated woman stood at the table at some point. Lit the extinguished oil lamp.
"You, you ......" Xu Dabao was startled, stammered two words of you and accidentally bit his tongue, and the tears of pain were about to fall out.
"I'm here to thank you." Shi Shiran, who came, dragged a chair, sat down at the table, and thanked him with a calm face. I don't think there's anything wrong with running into someone's house in the middle of the night to scare people.
Xu Dabao finally endured the pain, got off the bed, and limped to the table a little.
Shu Jin looked at him. Motioned for him to sit. Xu Dabao also dragged a chair and sat down at the other end of the table.
"Ugh. What are you doing here? ”
"I said, come and thank you. Today, it was you who talked to Brother Cheng to drive that Brother Qiu away, didn't you? ”
When Xu Dabao heard this, he looked at Shu Jin's expression carefully, and felt that she really didn't look like she was going to settle accounts with him, and her heart was also relieved. No matter how far away, how did she know that she was helping her speak, but she still said flatteringly:
"Where, it should be, it should be."
Shu Jin didn't say anything, glanced at him again, and successfully looked at the more flattering words below him back into his stomach.
"Don't talk so much nonsense, I don't have that much time. I'm here to ask you, what is going on with your ninth brother? ”
"Huh?" Xu Dabao was stunned for a moment, and was a little confused by her question.
"I said it to thank you. You didn't sleep in the middle of the night, isn't it because Brother Jiu was arrested? Then just tell me about it, and maybe, I can help you get him out. If it happens, it will be a return to your favor today. ”
"Can you save Brother Nine?"
Xu Dabao was incredulous, but looking at Shu Jin, he didn't dare to say anything suspicious.
Shu Jin, this woman is not from their village, and he doesn't know much about it, but because it was repaired quite badly last time, Xu Dabao is still very afraid of her. Recently, he has more or less heard about Shu Jin. He knew a little about her competition with people in Jiangxing County, as well as her cooperation with Wenxiang Pavilion.
I have to say that this woman is still not simple. At the very least, the mind is very flexible.
After listening to Shu Jin's words at this moment, Xu Dabao told Shu Jin in detail about the experience of the ninth brother in order not to offend her and said that he was harmless to himself.
He had already told Shu Jin about the forces on Jiang Xing and Yuping's side before, and this time he talked in detail. Whether it was the gossip he knew, or the gossip he heard, they all said it and sued her.
"If I give you an idea, are you sure that Brother Cheng will listen to your methods?" After Shu Jin asked some information, he finally asked Xu Dabao.
"Well, not to mention anything else, I've been following Brother Cheng for a long time, and he has always taken care of me. If your method works, he will listen to it. ”
Shu Jin nodded when he heard this, thought about it, and asked again:
"You say, Brother Jiu is related to Sima Yue Chengtao in Linning Prefecture?"
"Hehe, it's not really a very close relative, but there are still a little bit of relatives who are around. But ......"
"But what?"
"Hehe, if you want to rely on this bit of kinship to get Brother Jiu out, it's not enough."
When Shu Jin heard this, he glanced at him.
"Of course I know that. If this path is successful, how can Brother Jiu still be in prison now. That's not how this kinship is used. ”
"Ugh! Sister-in-law Yanfeng, do you really have a way? Hearing Shu Jin's words, Xu Dabao couldn't help but feel some hope. I didn't even know how to change my name.
"There is a way, you can try it. If you can do what I say, there is a chance that you will be able to do it. ”
"Then you say! You said! If Brother Jiu can come out, I will let him thank you well! ”
When Shu Jin heard this, he shook his head:
"No, if Brother Jiu can really come out, don't say that I came up with this idea for the time being. If they really don't believe that you came up with the idea, then you say that someone superior is helping you. By the way, I told them again, and in the future, there will be opportunities for cooperation. ”
Xu Dabao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but after thinking about it, he nodded and agreed.
Seeing that he agreed, Shu Jin wanted to come with Xu Dabao's courage, and he didn't dare to disobey her. And he told his own way.
"You're ...... That" (To be continued......)
