Walking out of the Dadu Governor's Mansion, Pei Min looked at the sunset at dusk on the horizon, and thought of the names of several people in his mind: there are big businessmen on the rich side, smuggling black businessmen who travel to and from the Northeast, local heroes and underworld giants, and state and county parents, no wonder Xue Ne didn't dare to investigate it. None of these people www.biquge.info easy to mess with, and none of them are really clean. As soon as a person of Xue Ne's level launched an investigation against them. Regardless of whether there is anything or not, it will inevitably cause a situation of rumors, causing the entire Youzhou people to panic, but it will be taken advantage of by the Xi people and the Khitan. Only an inconspicuous little person like him can act unbridled under their noses without discovering it.

But where to start investigating, Pei Min still has no clue, go back and think about it, and he can't rush it. Anyway, just like Xue Ne's original meaning, waiting is also a way.

After walking two streets, Pei Min suddenly smelled an aroma, which was the smell of soy sauce mixed with hot meat. He came to Jicheng from Huairou County to study, and he was hungry for dry cakes all the way, and so many things happened in Jicheng, he didn't care about eating, and he was already so hungry that his chest was close to his back. I followed the aroma and searched for it, and after crossing the street, I saw a simple tavern.

Although the tavern is small, it is full of friends, and it is very lively. From afar, you can hear the shouts of running and the noise of chatting inside, and the reverberation is one.

Pei Min was very satisfied with the environment of the small shop, and walked into the store without hesitation.

asked for food, ordered two side dishes, sat in the seat and listened to the surrounding three religions and nine streams gathered in one place to talk about the broad.

Most of the people who dined in such small hotels were merchants and hooligans. A businessman is a businessman, and the biggest characteristic of this type of person is that he is well-informed. They go from south to north, where they make money, they drill wherever they want, and they have a wide range of knowledge, which ordinary people are far less than them. And the hooligans and ruffians are distributed in the streets and alleys, and they can also grasp first-hand information. They talk big, brag and fart, and they can't believe everything they say, but they don't necessarily mean it all.

If you want to know the world without going out, the tavern is the best place to go, and this has been recognized for thousands of years.

I listened carefully with my ears pricked up, and sure enough, all the things that were popular nowadays were in my ears: what little widow Shui Ling in Yongjie Lane, what old widow in Zhang Village stole people, all kinds of strange things, coming out of the mouths of a group of ruffians and hooligans, which were particularly lewd and obscene.

Pei Min selectively ignored them and looked for topics of interest.

He was intrigued by a merchant to his right, who was talking about one of the people on the list that Xue Ne had given him, the black merchant Jiang Bo. The so-called black businessman is also a smuggler businessman.

Wu Zetian is a good hand in politics, but his military achievements can only be described by the word "hehe".

During the reign of Taizong Zhenguan, he almost won all the foreign records, and the only defeat was because Li Shimin had a big heart and felt that if he did not destroy Goguryeo, even if he recovered Liaodong, it would not even be a victory to capture 21 cities. In the Gaozong Dynasty, although there were several defeats, it was still powerful and laid down the largest territory of the Tang Dynasty. Wu Zetian was good, and he killed generals such as Cheng Wuting, Wang Fangyi, and Heizhi Changzhi, which directly led to the defeat of the Tang army again and again, and the majesty of the country was swept away. The vassal states that were originally subject to the Tang Dynasty broke away from the control of the Tang Dynasty one by one, and they did not pay tribute, and even cut off trade contacts.

At this time, the existence of black merchants became particularly popular.

Black merchants were able to make huge profits by buying and selling sought-after goods from other countries through various channels.

Jiang Bo is such a figure, because the Xi people and the Khitan occupy Yingzhou, cutting off the source of trade routes in the northeast. Jiang Bo was able to safely transport all kinds of heavenly materials and treasures from Changbai Mountain in the northeast to Youzhou by land, how could it be done without certain means. said that Jiang Bo had no one in the Xi and Khitan tribes, and even a three-year-old child would not believe it. It is also for this reason that Jiang Bo is the most suspicious.

A footman said with a bit of schadenfreude: "Lao Li, you heard me say that Jiang Bo's face is really lost this time!" You weren't there at the time, and I saw with my own eyes that his face turned purple......"

Sitting at his table, Lao Li said incredulously: "Really?

The footman patted his chest and said, "That's still fake, and I'm not the only one who sees it, there are many eyes on the official road." Wait, it won't be long before the news spreads. When the time comes, you will know whether it is true or not. ”

Lao Li hurriedly said: "It's not that I don't believe you, what is our relationship, how can I not believe you." It's really surprising, I've heard that Jiang Bo's guards are all first-class good players, all of them are heroes hired by him from the rivers and lakes with a lot of money, and everyone has a dozen strengths, why are they so vulnerable. More than 20 people, let two people fall into the water? ”

The foot merchant pursed his lips disdainfully and said: "That's because they didn't meet a real good player, they really met an opponent, and I don't know how badly they were beaten." You are not on the scene because you have no eyes, I want to go south and north for so many years, I have never seen such beautiful kung fu. Don't you know, those two little brothers dancing with wooden swords are just like beauties dancing, and the beauty is amazing. I watched it so intently, who knew that when I came back to my senses, more than two dozen strong men would knock them to the ground and couldn't get up. More than 20 people beat two people, and Ren didn't even touch the corners of people's clothes. You say, Jiang Bo can not be angry and scream! ”

Lao Li listened to it and knew that his friend would not be untargeted, so he said after a while: "I don't know when there will be these two more people in our Youzhou, and they are bold enough." The strong dragon still doesn't suppress the head snake, just with Jiang Bo's strength in the north, the two of them are estimated to have a good life. ”

The businessman looked left and right, and suddenly lowered his voice and said: "It's not that they are going to provoke Jiang Bo, it's that Jiang Bo has taken a fancy to the things on them, as if they are some kind of calligraphy, and they want to take it by force." As a result, I ran into hard stubble, but I learned a lesson. He wanted to whisper, but he was used to shouting, and his voice was loud enough, even if he lowered his voice, it still fell into Pei Min's ears.

They weren't talking about it, they were talking about other anecdotes.

Pei Min was bored when he heard it, and it happened that Xiao Er put the food he ordered on the table and ate it with his head down.

After a bowl of rice, Pei Min heard an interesting news again: at noon today, Yuan Hao defeated a seventeen or eighteen-year-old woman with a wooden sword, and he lost very badly.

Of course Pei Min knew Yuan Hao, that Yuan Hao was the director of a martial arts hall in Jicheng, and he was a well-known swordsman in the north, with some attainments in swordsmanship, and his hodgepodge of swordsmanship, "keeping people under the sword", was learned from Yuan Hao.

He actually beat a little girl and had no room to fight back?
