Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Courage of the Countryside Comes to the Collection

"Zhang Gu?" Li Luo frowned, "Looking at your analysis, do you suspect that he has something to do with the Pu family's extermination case?" ”

Cui Xiuning nodded: "When you were deliberating, you talked about pirates three times and the Park family twice, and this Zhang Gu was unnatural every time at that time, which was obviously related to this matter."

Li Luo said: "Why do I think he doesn't behave abnormally?"

"You don't have this kind of training, you can't see normal. Don't forget, Zhang Gu is still a harbor village. The village he managed was the seaside port, from where the pirates last came ashore and destroyed the Park family. Cui Xiuning said confidently.

Li Luo has already believed eight points.

If Zhang Guzhen colluded with pirates, it would definitely be a dangerous hidden danger, who knows when he will collude with pirates to go ashore and do another vote?

If that's the case, maybe the pirates' next target will be their own capital.

Cui Xiuning continued: "There is also Moses Village Zheng Dongge. This person is also a bit of an anomaly. When you mentioned the Liu family once, his eyes flashed with a hint of smugness. He should have taken refuge in the Liu family a long time ago. There is also Wang Fan, who has been faintly looking at Dong Ge's face, and may have also taken refuge in the Liu family. ”

Without saying a word, Li Luo began to check the gift box given by the village officials, he found the gift box with the names of Dong Ge and Wang Fan written on it, opened it, and sneered: "Policeman, you are so powerful, you should be right by you."

Because, the gifts of the two are the same, they are both silk cloth, and the texture and price should be about the same, but the color is different.

Other people's gifts, including large copper coins, Korean ginseng, jewelry, silk, Gao Jian and even generously gave a silver bottle.

Although these gifts are different, their value is more than five times, and they are all more expensive than the cloth given by Dong Ge and Wang Fan.

This is no coincidence at all. Obviously, the two discussed the gift-giving, but they were not generous enough, indicating that they didn't take Li Luo too seriously.

It should be that there is the Liu family as a backer, and there is no fear.

Cui Xiuning stroked the hair around her ears, "Zhang Gu, it's likely to contact the pirates." Dong Ge and Wang Fan may report our actions to the Liu family. ”

Li Luo asked, "What are you going to do?" You already have a charter, right? ”

Whether it is the Liu family or the pirates, they are now behemoths for Li Luo, if one is not good, Li Luo will be swallowed up, and there will be no chance to turn over.

Cui Xiuning said: "I want to arrange a few informants to keep an eye on their movements." Especially Zhang Gu, this person is very scheming and the most dangerous. ”

Li Luo nodded, "Anyway, you are in charge of the money, and you are nominally Mrs. Duzhai, just let it go." ”

Cui Xiuning said: "Without further ado, I will go out tomorrow to make arrangements."

The two discussed for a long time, and soon night fell, and they didn't mention eating and washing.

I don't have to worry about survival anymore, and I finally use toilet paper.

Is... It's so open.

Of course, it would be even better if you could take a good hot bath.

Although there is no shortage of firewood and new bedding now, because the main room is full of purchased food and materials, the two can only squeeze into the wing.

Before going to bed, Cui Xiuning allowed Li Luo to sleep on the kang for the first time.

Fortunately, this kang is big enough.

Cui Xiuning took a long stick and put it in the middle of the big kang and said, "This stick is the Chu River Han Realm, and you are the general Shuai Xiangwei." ”

Li Luo smiled: "Then you are a chariot and horse gunner?" ”

"Phew." Cui Xiuning chirped, "Of course, I am also a handsome elephant guard, and I can't cross the river." ”

But in the middle of the night, Li Luo did not cross the river, but Cui Xiuning crossed the river instead.

"Mom..."

Cui Xiuning dreamed, and the two turned over arms pressed on Li Luo's body, sleeping carefully.

After not taking a bath for so many days, her hair smelled of sweat a little, and there was a unique fragrance, which made Li Luo's sleepiness suddenly fade.

When Li Luo woke up in the morning, he found that Cui Xiuning had already gotten up.

She is "putting on makeup".

Other people's makeup is for beauty, but her makeup is obviously for ugliness.

Flour and soot were smeared on his face, and his originally fair and smooth complexion became sallow and rough. After charcoal drawing, Xiuyi's eyebrows became thick and black and ugly.

Because the tools are so limited, she can only turn into this. Because her foundation is too good, no matter how you look at it, she is still good-looking.

It's just that it has gone from stunning to ordinary.

Finally, she changed into a set of white cloth goryeo "chima", her hair was tied into a goryeo braid, and then she squinted slightly.

A Goryeo folk woman.

"How?" Cui Xiuning asked.

Li Luo nodded: "It's okay." Stay safe and don't go too far. ”

"Okay." Cui Xiuning took some copper coins and left the house.

Li Luo got up and began to write plans, draw drawings of Wubao Fort, and repeatedly plan and revise.

It wasn't until dusk that Cui Xiuning, who had been away for a day, went home in a cold air.

Cui Xiuning finished eating the barbecue white porridge prepared by Li Luo, and then talked about today's results.

"The eyeliner of Harbour Village has been done, and I know how to do it. Those three people were all from the harbor, and they would keep an eye on Zhang Gu's actions. ”

Li Luoqi said: "Why are they so obedient? Won't they betray you to their village? ”

After all, the informant she was looking for was a villager under Zhang Gu's jurisdiction.

Cui Xiuning smiled confidently, "I naturally have my own set of methods, so I won't talk about it for a long time." However, it has always cost a lot of money. ”

Li Luo was relieved, "Money is nothing, as long as the informant is reliable." ”

Cui Xiuning said: "We have to do great things, and the intelligence network must be formed, otherwise we will suffer a big loss sooner or later."

"The police spoke to my heart. However, the intelligence work is too professional, I can't do this, and I will rely on you to be responsible. ”

"Hehe, the intelligence agency is a key department, can you rest assured? Aren't you afraid that I will betray you one day? ”

"Police, there are only two of us in this world, and it is not too much to say that we depend on each other. If even you turn your back on me, what does it mean? It shows that I lack personal charm and the ability to win people's hearts, and I am destined to fail to achieve great things. At that time, it is better to be killed by you than by others. ”

"Just kidding, the fugitives are getting serious. But your words still touched me a little. ”

"Are the police going tomorrow?"

"I'm going to install the informant of the Liu family tomorrow."

"The Liu family is a family, and the family is either a private soldier or a slave, how can it be easy to be our informant?"

"I can't do it tomorrow, but I'm just preparing, and I'll do the subject investigation first. Within a week, the Liu family will have our informant. I want to know any information about the Liu family that is unfavorable to us. ”

"That's hard work. By the way, look at the architectural scheme of this mansion. ”

"Overall very good, like a dock castle, you are very thoughtful. However, the walls were too high to keep pirates safe for five meters. The watchtower is low again, at least fifteen meters. And this..."

……

On the twentieth day of the lunar month, Cui Xiuning went out with makeup again. In the afternoon, Du Lie and Utu came to visit together and talked to Li Luo about the fact that Hecun was forcibly recruiting the Central Plains refugees to serve as village warriors.

Li Luo asked them to cooperate, mobilized the Jurchen elite to apply, and said that he would not treat the villagers badly. It's just that you have to pretend to be dissatisfied.

Du Lie Wutu left with confidence.

Starting on the morning of the 21st day of the lunar month, eleven villages were successively bringing the forcibly brought villagers to the Li family's courtyard.

By noon, all the townspeople had arrived. After the inspection, there were 225 Han Chinese, 52 Jurchens, and 23 Khitans. That's just three hundred.

The funny thing is that there is not even a single "Goryeo nation".

The urine of the Korean people can be imagined.

These three hundred townships were in a mess outside the Li family's small courtyard, all of them were dissatisfied, but they dared not speak out under the suppression of the villagers.

Seeing Li Luo, who was wearing an official uniform and carrying a straight knife, appeared, the villagers did not dare to show their anger.

He and others are all from the Central Plains, and it is inevitable that they will be bullied when they go to Goryeo. If you evil this Goryeo capital, it will only be more sad.

Li Luo was very satisfied when he saw that Xiang Yong was all young and strong from seventeen or eighteen to thirty years old, and many of them were tall.

Along with Xiang Yong, there were more than a dozen craftsmen. They all belong to the folk craftsmen, that is, "sluts", and they are not even good people in Goryeo.

"Grass people Sun Sanfu visits Lord Duzhai!"

A thin old man with gray hair knelt down and said, and the other dozen or so craftsmen knelt down together, all looking humble.

According to the Goryeo law, even if the "slut" sees a small official, he must bow down.

"No courtesy." Li Luo raised his hand. "Sun Sanfu, you must know about it. Are you the master craftsman who presides over the repair of the house? ”

"Yes." Sun Sanfu replied respectfully.

Li Luo gave him a picture and said, "Maybe it will be built?"

Sun Sanfu looked at the picture, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then hurriedly replied: "I will definitely satisfy the adults." It's just this manpower..."

This project is not small, and I don't know when it will be repaired due to lack of manpower.

Li Luo pointed to the three hundred Xiangyong and said with a smile: "Sun Sanfu, these three hundred Xiangyong are all manpower, you and a dozen apprentices just need to dispatch and dispatch!"

"Yes. Lord Xie Duzhai. Sun Sanfu breathed a sigh of relief. With these 300 strong laborers, he was confident that he would be able to complete it in less than two months.

When Sanbai Xiangyong heard this, his heart suddenly became even more dissatisfied.
