Chapter 655: Pressing step by step

The man who drove the cattle stopped the car, walked to the opposite side of the street with a smile to see the excitement, and shouted at Jiang Anyi without saltiness or lightness in his mouth: "Good man, there is really a kind, he dares to go to Zhangzhuang to beat people, I will pull you back to the county seat in a while, but I have to charge you twenty yuan for the ride." ”

This man is a local and knows how powerful Zhang Zhuang is. Zhangzhuang produces good wine, does not worry about the market and the price is high, people with a heart roughly estimated, ten thousand catties of wine has at least 20,000 taels of pure profit, in Wuqing County is a big deal. There are naturally many people who want to get a piece of the pie, and the first officials in the city came to ask for benefits, but they were learned by the county order and severely reprimanded them for not being allowed to make trouble. The officials knew that this Zhang Ye had opened up the relationship with the county magistrate, and they didn't dare to harass him again on the surface, and secretly instigated the ruffian to go and extort protection money. After the green skin was rejected, he made trouble on the village, the rice field was trampled in a mess, and the vegetable field was trampled to a pulp, which annoyed Zhuang Zhisheng, and took Zhuang Ding to beat this group of green skins to death, and warned them to dare to come again and break their legs.

There were people who did not believe in evil spirits, and secretly went to destroy them at night, but the leader of the team fell to the ground in a daze, and when he was carried back by his accomplices, half of his body could not move and was paralyzed. Seeking medical advice failed, the green skin knew that he had offended Zhang Tiansheng, so he asked his subordinates to carry him to Zhangzhuang, lying on the ground and begging for mercy, Zhang Tiansheng pinched him a few times, it was strange to say, and he was cured without medicine. After this incident, Zhang Zhuang no longer dared to make trouble.

There is a rule for Zhangzhuang's wine, it is sold not far away and only sold to acquaintances, and the major restaurants in the city have come to Zhangzhuang to buy goods, which virtually robbed the business of other wineries and wine shops. Under the impetus of someone with a heart, it took two hundred taels of silver to invite a master of the rivers and lakes to teach Zhang Tiansheng a lesson, and in the eyes of everyone's expectation, the master rode into the village with a horse toe and entered the village proudly, and in less than half an hour, he returned the silver with a disgraced face and slipped away without saying a word.

In the following year, Zhang Zhuang sent several thieves to Yamen, all of whom were big thieves who were caught by the criminal department with a reward. Drink water and don't forget to dig wells, County Lieutenant Chen was drunk in Zhangzhuang several times before his promotion, and instructed his subordinates to catch fast who dared to embarrass Brother Zhang was not to give him Chen someone's face. As a fast catcher, how can he not be clear-eyed, Zhang Zhuang can take down those big thieves, which in itself shows a lot of things, who dares to touch the tiger's buttocks. After staying in Wuqing County for two years, Zhang Zhuang became sensible and interesting, spent money to make friends with the officials above and below the yamen, the yamen actively cooperated with the taxation and dispatch, and the matter of repairing bridges and roads was not less, Zhang Ye's reputation was loud in Wuqing County, and I had never heard of anyone daring to make trouble in Zhangzhuang in the past two years.

Look at the excitement is not afraid of big things, the car driver is not in a hurry to go back, someone is making trouble in Zhangzhuang, and he has said that he has returned to the restaurant. More than a dozen Zhuang guests with sticks surrounded Jiang Anyi, and after a while, the sticks broke to the ground, and everyone went down to the river. The driver stared at his eyes, with one enemy ten, the legendary master was fortunate to be touched by my Shang Er, by the way, I also had a few words with the master, this is going to spread my Shang Er is going to attract attention.

Seeing the lively crowd dumbfounded, it turned out that it was not a beating but a collective beating, someone sent a letter, Jiang Anyi was guarding the entrance to the bridge, he just wanted to lead out the owner of the village and ask him how the wine was made.

Zhang Mansion is a five-entry courtyard, behind the courtyard is a large area of grassland, Zhang Tiansheng (Li Mingfeng) is playing with his son Zhang Shuyi (Li Shuyi), and his wife Chen Dahua (Jiang Huayan) was born in October last year

The youngest daughter (Zhang Shuhui) sat in the shade of the tree, grinning and teasing. A Zhuang guest panted and ran to please: "Owner, there is a wine buyer outside, so domineering, if you can't buy wine, you will occupy the bridge and not let people go, Jiang Tou led people over and he was knocked down into the river, Zhuang owner, you go and take a look." ”

Zhang Shuyi is six years old this year, it is the time when he loves to move and run, Zhang Tiansheng has been playing with his children for most of the hour, and he is feeling bored, when he hears the report, he is in high spirits, and he said loudly: "Who is so bold, I'll go and see." ”

Chen Dahua had insight into her husband's thoughts that she didn't want to take the children, but she didn't say anything, and advised: "Be careful, bring a sword, go and go back quickly, it's almost dinner." Chen Dahua can trust her husband's martial arts, and she has suffocated her husband during this time, so it's good to let him go.

Zhang Tiansheng excitedly led people to find a place, and there were still more than 20 zhang away from the bridgehead, so he recognized at a glance that the person standing at the bridgehead was actually his eldest brother Jiang Anyi. When Li Mingfeng was in Huazhou, he robbed and killed Jiang Anyi with his master Liu Ziwei, so he knew Jiang Anyi, but Jiang Anyi didn't know him. Li Mingfeng's head "buzzed", and the first feeling was that Jiang Anyi learned that Yan'er was hiding here, and came to find someone, Yan'er eloped with him back then, he felt ashamed, he was really afraid to see the Jiang family, not to mention that his original purpose was not ulterior, and he felt more and more empty-hearted.

The people next to him were surprised to find that the owner of the village stopped suddenly, his face became pale, and he wondered in his heart that the person who came was a great master, and even the owner was afraid. After calming down a little, Zhang Tiansheng asked: "When did this person come, how did he come, is he alone, tell me in detail." ”

The Zhuang Ke who fell into the water first was found and told the story, Li Mingfeng's heart calmed down a little, so it seems that Jiang Anyi did not come for himself, but for wine. The family knows their own affairs, Zhang Zhuang's wine is made by Yan'er according to the Jiang family's methods, Jiang Anyi must have eaten outside and found out that something was wrong before tracking it down here. When Yan'er came out of the Jiang family with him, she had more than 10,000 taels of private money and some jewelry, and Jiang Anyi gave her seven or eight gems, and any one of them was worth six or seven thousand taels of silver.

After meeting Jiang Anyong in the capital, he left quickly, and the two traveled around the mountains and rivers, spending more than 2,000 taels of silver in a year. Yan'er felt that she had had enough, so the two chose to settle down in Wuqing County, Huangzhou, buy a house and a field, hire a maid to buy a ring, and spend more than 10,000 taels of silver.

Jiang Huayan has a child, and the more the family spends, so she thought of selling the two gems, Li Mingfeng saw his wife's reluctance, resolutely disagreed, and secretly planned to go outside to make a vote, but was unexpectedly discovered by Yan'er. Yan'er was anxious and angry, tearfully reprimanding Li Mingfeng for wanting to cut off the whole family and shame the unborn child, in front of his wife's tears, Li Mingfeng turned into a soft finger, so he had to sigh and swear that he would never go out again.

Li Mingfeng, who is pseudonymous Zhang Tiansheng, has turned into a farmer, taking people to work in the fields all day long, caring about the harvest in the field, and the hard work pays off, the family has a bumper harvest of 20 hectares of fertile land, and there are more than 100,000 stone of grain left after paying the field tax.

At this time, Li Shuyi had been born, and Yan'er was a mother.

Take care of your children's property. Her husband was worried that the food was difficult to sell, and Yan'er had an idea, which was just used to make wine. Li Mingfeng worked as a guard in the Jiang Mansion, and he drank the Jiang family's wine, and Yan'er didn't know how much he stole from him to drink. However, the Jiang family's liquor workshop is tightly guarded, but he can't go in, otherwise so many people are red-eyed and no one has ever succeeded in stealing the teacher, the girl is outgoing, and his wife took the initiative to take out the Jiang family's liquor making method for profit, of course he was happy.

However, Yan'er agreed in advance that her own brewing is only to meet the needs of life, and she is limited to 20,000 catties of liquor every year, and only sells it to nearby regular customers, and is never allowed to sell it around. In Yan'er's opinion, it is not too much for her to do this, it is regarded as her brother's New Year's deposit money to her nephew.

There is no impermeable wall in the world, the eldest brother came to the door with wine, Li Mingfeng had a thought, he must not let Jiang Anyi find Yan'er, otherwise the family will be separated. Li Mingfeng knew that Yan'er and her family had a deep relationship, and she had often talked about it over the years, and she wanted to take her son home several times, but was persuaded by Li Mingfeng. Although he and Yan'er had two children, Li Mingfeng was still afraid that Yan'er would find out his identity as the Yuantian Sect and find out that he had approached her with bad intentions, and once the truth was exposed, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Chilling, Li Mingfeng subconsciously shrank back, and explained to the steward next to him: "If he wants to buy wine, sell it to him, and send him away quickly." ”

In recent years, the steward is accustomed to seeing the strength of the owner, and there is no injustice of the owner of one acre and three points of land in Wuqing County. Steward You plucked out his ears and asked suspiciously, "Owner, what are you talking about?" ”

Li Mingfeng really wanted to give Steward You a slap, and he repeatedly asked about the loss of face, but he wanted to see his jokes, and said in a muffled voice: "If he wants wine, give it to him, and quickly send him away." After speaking, Li Mingfeng turned around and went home.

You steward heard it clearly, looking at the back of the owner of the village leaving, and then looking at Jiang Anyi, who was standing proudly at the head of the bridge, there was more awe in his eyes, there was no need to ask the owner of the village to know this person who was blocking the way, it was very likely that he had suffered a loss under him, otherwise how could he be willing to knock out his teeth and swallow blood with the arrogance of the owner.

After stabilizing his mind, Steward You stepped forward and saluted Jiang Anyi: "This guest officer, how much wine do you want to buy, please come with me." ”

The villagers who got up from the river couldn't believe their ears, and the ginger head who led the team shouted: "You are in charge, you haven't drunk too much." ”

Steward You smiled bitterly: "This is the order of the master of the village." ”

Things took a turn for the worse, and Jiang Anyi felt more and more ghosts, and said, "I want five hundred catties." ”

The wine shop is located in the westernmost part of Zhuangzi, close to the granary, and you can smell a strong aroma of wine when you get closer. Jiang Anyi seemed to inadvertently ask the steward beside him, "Which master did you ask for your family's wine to make it, it tastes really good, can you spend money to invite one back." ”

Steward You smiled: "This is a craft brought by the owner's wife from her mother's house, and others will not." The people who learned to make wine in the village are all trustworthy old men, who have received the great favor of the lord and the lady, not to mention the use of money, even the knife holder and the neck will not say. ”

The craftsmanship of his mother's family, Jiang Anyi's heart moved, it was not Yan'er.
