After Han Xiufeng finished speaking, he looked at the husbands of the tea gang, and almost wrote on his face that as long as you are willing to give money, I can also help you find out the news, and I can also help you go to deliver prison food to the porter who is locked in the class room.

After eating the plaintiff and the defendant, didn't the officials and officials live by extortion?

Zhu Er reacted suddenly, and secretly scolded Han Xiufeng, a little scribe who was idle in the Yamen, for being black-hearted. Thinking that the guest head of the hall had already been entrusted, there was no need to spend any more money on a group of officials who said that it didn't count, so he simply didn't go over and no longer deal with Han Xiufeng, and Han Xiufeng returned to the Sichuan Gang as if he was bored.

There are many porters and husbands in the tea gang, so there are more people who come than the Sichuan gang. But the Sichuan Gang just hired a sedan chair, or a blue sedan chair, all around the sedan chair, but the momentum overshadowed the tea gang with many people.

Thinking that it was impossible for the guest chief to stay overnight in the yamen, Zhu Er turned around and said, "If there is anything to look at, hurry up and hire a sedan chair." ”

"Oh, I'll go." A husband of the tea gang relieved himself and hurriedly ran to the sedan chair.

……

"Learn from us, what did you do earlier." One of the porters of the Sichuan Gang muttered.

"That's all they have to say, they know how to do things!"

Han Xiufeng was worried that they were talking and moving again, so he immediately reminded: "Don't say a word." ”

As he spoke, the husband came out.

Seeing that the sky had not yet reached the point of the shift, when he saw Han Xiufeng, he set up a dragon gate array, and he was in a good position, and the tea porter who went to the sedan chair came back, and looked in the direction he ran over, and everyone found that they had not hired a sedan chair, but only hired a lifting pole. Two palanquin bearers jogged behind them, and the bamboo chairs on the poles swayed up and down.

Zhu Er was anxious, and pulled the husband who went to hire the sedan chair aside to ask what was going on.

Jiang Liu smiled, pointing to the pole that was getting closer and closer, and laughed breathlessly.

"Sixth brother, what are you laughing at?"

"They know a hammer, and they don't want to think about the blue sedan chair, can anyone sit on it? The boss of the sedan chair is the safest, no matter who hires the sedan chair, he must first ask who he is hired to sit on. The green and blue tweed is an official sedan chair, only the eldest lord can sit, Gu Lao Zhongjinshi, Lahanlin, who has been a senior official of the imperial court, can naturally sit. What can the guest chief of the Huguang Hall do if he is rich, in the final analysis, he is a white Ding like us, and he doesn't dare to sit in this blue sedan chair if he borrows a few guts, and Boss Yu naturally doesn't dare to hire him to sit in the sedan chair! ”

"Fourth brother, really?" A husband asked suspiciously.

"Really," Han Xiufeng looked back at the sedan chair and explained: "As the saying goes, 'there is a difference between the concubines and the concubines, and the dignity and humility are orderly', and the imperial court has regulations on the honor guards of the big lords. In short, only adults above the third grade can sit in the green sedan chair, and the third grade or less can sit in the blue sedan chair, and ordinary people are not unable to sit in the sedan chair, but they can't sit in the sedan chair. ”

"And this exquisiteness!"

"You just know."

"But why don't they hire a sedan chair that isn't a good material?"

Han Xiufeng looked at him like an idiot, and Jiang Liu couldn't help laughing: "Isn't your braincase not good, the sedan car store opens the door to make money!" The green and blue sedan chair can be hired to sit for the old man, the sedan chair can be hired to pick up relatives, who will hire an ordinary sedan chair, and there is the money to hire two lifting poles, so the sedan chair line is not purchased, the sedan chair line is not at all, where do they hire! ”

The tea gang can only hire to carry the pole, and the head of the Sichuan gang suddenly raised his eyebrows, and even the eighth master couldn't help asking: "Fourth baby, I heard that you donated an official, and you are about to go to the capital to fill the vacancy, and when you fill the vacancy and become an official, won't you be able to sit in the blue sedan chair?" ”

"No, I don't have any money, I only donated a nine-grade inspection, I am the smallest miscellaneous officer, I can't sit in a sedan chair, I can only ride a horse."

"It's majestic to be able to ride a horse!"

"Fourth brother, this is a matter of glory to the ancestors, I knew that you were promising, but I didn't expect you to be so promising!"

……

Several husbands didn't know before, but when they heard what the eighth master said, there was a burst of jubilation, and they surrounded Han Xiufeng one by one to ask this and that.

Han Xiufeng was anxious to be asked, and was about to answer with a dry mouth, when the gate of the county government suddenly opened from the inside, and the two imposing old men were sent out by the county magistrate's chief with Zhang Biao carrying a lantern.

Jiang Liu and Zhu Er ran to the yamen together, one went to find Master Gu, and the other went to find the guest chief of the Huguang Hall, Han Xiufeng reacted, immediately lifted the sedan curtain, and waited for Master Gu to get on the sedan chair.

"I also hired a sedan chair, when did you become so sensible." Grandpa Gu looked at the sedan chair, and then looked at the lifting rod hired by the tea gang for the guest head of the Huguang Guild Hall, he was very satisfied with the preparation of the Sichuan Gang, nodded slightly with the gang of husbands, and walked over quickly to get into the sedan chair.

"Get up!" The sedan chair driver shouted and lifted the sedan pole to his shoulder.

Jiang Liu followed to the left of the sedan chair, and while trotting down, he reminded diligently: "Brother, hold it steady and look at your feet." ”

Han Xiufeng followed to the right of the sedan chair, thinking about how to speak, when Master Gu suddenly lifted the side curtain and asked casually, "Who wrote that note?" ”

"Looking back on the old man's words, I wrote it, and I asked someone to bring it into the second hall."

"You wrote that?" Master Gu was surprised, and his face was suspicious.

A husband who followed behind Han Xiufeng couldn't help but say: "Master Gu, the four babies have been helping out in the yamen, and they are the clear books of the household. His uncle used to be a scribe not only in the county government, but also in the Daotai yamen, and he was his own son. ”

Master Gu suddenly realized, and couldn't help laughing: "It turned out to be you, good, good." ”

Jiang Liuzao couldn't help it, and asked eagerly: "Master Gu, what did the county master say about the big head?" ”

Master Gu looked behind him and confirmed that the guest head of the Huguang Guild Hall and the people of the Tea Gang were going the other way, and said lightly: "Since the big head baby has a bad brain, the words he said in the class room naturally can't be taken seriously. ”

Han Xiufeng echoed: "What Master Gu said is extremely true, the neighbors and the porters who are begging for a living at the dock all know that he is a melon baby!" ”

Master Gu smiled, and suddenly changed his words: "The braincase is not good, but after all, there is a fatality, and the tea gang has to say that killing people pays for their lives." Master, for the sake of the villagers, I can only help you fight with reason, and after grinding your mouth for a day, the county lord finally relented, and now I will see that those husbands in the tea gang are especially bitter and do not listen to the advice of the guest director of the Huguang Guild Hall. ”

Han Xiufeng subconsciously asked: "Master Gu, how is the county master's mouth loose?" ”

"Master, as a local squire, I naturally want to speak for the local people, I made it very clear to the county magistrate, there are thousands of porters in the tea gang and a steady stream, relying on the friendship with the eight provincial gangs, bullying and dominating the market, forcing you to wait for the local porters to have no way to live, if this matter is not handled properly, it will not only affect the errands, but also mess up the local security." Master Gu paused, then looked at Han Xiufeng and said, "I've already said it, and then it's up to you to see if you have any backbone." ”

Running errands is the point!

How could Han Xiufeng not know the meaning of Master Gu's words, and hurriedly said: "Master Gu can rest assured, if the county master blindly favors the tea gang, the more than 4,000 porters of the Sichuan Gang will not bear the burden even if they starve to death!" ”

"Okay, I'm relieved to have your words, master." Master Gu took out a pocket watch, opened the lid to look at the hours on it, and muttered: "Originally, I was still thinking that the tea gang had died after all, and I planned to help you make the decision to explore the other party's tone and see if you can pay some money for selfishness." Later, when I saw the note you asked someone to carry it, I knew that the braincase of the big-headed baby was not good, and what a melon baby said naturally couldn't be believed, and there was no need to pay for the money. ”

"Can the Tea Gang agree?"

"If you don't agree, you have to take the errand!" Master Gu snorted coldly, and continued: "What's more, the arms can't twist the thighs, they have aroused the anger of the people, this is not just a matter of the two gangs of porters, the guest governors of the eight provinces should know this truth, and naturally help to appease the bitter master." ”
