Commander Luo of Baiyangdian was originally a salt ding, but because he couldn't stand the oppression of the local squires with various means such as small and large harvests, he simply pulled up a vote of people and became a water bandit in Baiyangdian.

All the heroes who fell into the grass gave themselves a loud nickname, which was used to scare the officers and soldiers at the same time, but also to deter their brothers.

Commander Luo is more ruthless, and he admires the black whirlwind Li Kui in the Water Margin, so he gave himself the nickname of a small whirlwind, and was called Luo Whirlwind by other water bandits in Baiyangdian.

Baiyangdian is at the junction of Baoding Mansion and Hejian Mansion, the location is good, but the two prefectures of Beizhili are in the south of Shuntianfu, and the common people can not enjoy the dividends of the first industrial revolution of the Ming Dynasty.

Years of famine and the continuous increase of all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes have made the life of the common people more and more difficult, and the life of the Baiyangdian water bandits who rely on robbing the common people to live is even more unbearable.

As long as there are more than 500 big water bandits, all of them go to take refuge in King Chuang Gao Yingxiang, Luo Whirlwind only has more than 100 water bandits in his hands, and he is worried that the powerful King Chuang will not be able to look down on him, so he stays in Baiyangdian.

Most of the local bureaucrats and gentry built Zhuangzi into a dock fort, and bought a lot of bird guns from the Beiping Firearms Bureau.

The vast Baiyangdian reeds.

Luo Whirlwind and several leaders were sitting in a canopy boat, discussing where to find some small traders to shoot, and another acanopy boat pressed the green reeds and sailed over.

Luo Xuanfeng and the others immediately clenched the short knife in their hands, and looked nervously at the reeds in the distance, and when they saw the man's clothes clearly, they breathed a sigh of relief.

Shopkeeper Cao was holding a jar of good wine in his hand, and the two canopy boats were still more than a foot away, and he threw them over directly: "Commander Luo has been doing well recently." ”

Luo Whirlwind hurriedly took over Jiannan Burning Spring, smashed the wine seal made of chaff mixed with lime with a short knife, and the monkey hurriedly scooped it with his hand, and groaned comfortably: "What an egg, his mother's life is getting harder and harder." ”

"Lao Tzu hasn't drunk for almost ten days, and I'm about to die of hunger."

Luo Whirlwind kicked a leader who was rushing to drink into the water swing, scooped five or six mouthfuls in succession, burped a wine and shouted: "Who are you looking for Lao Tzu to kill, we have to say in advance, don't want Lao Tzu to do it without fifty taels." ”

Shopkeeper Cao didn't look for this Luo Whirlwind to do some shady things, and when he heard that Luo Whirlwind was going to raise the silver to fifty taels, he didn't scold him for being a muddy leg and having no knowledge.

On the contrary, he smiled kindly: "This shopkeeper came here to give Commander Luo a great fortune, it depends on whether you have the courage to ask for it." ”

Luo Whirlwind also knew how to buy people's hearts, and he drank half a catty of Jiannan Burning Spring, so he handed over the wine jar to the other leaders, and said with a big grin: "There is no thing in the world that Lao Tzu does not dare to do." ”

"No matter whether this wealth is one hundred taels of silver or one hundred and fifty taels of silver, Lao Tzu will take it correctly."

Shopkeeper Cao spit out a sum of money, this bandit who had killed four or five people with his own hands, one of them did not stand firm and almost fell into the water.

"Three thousand taels of silver."

Three thousand taels?

Luo Whirlwind has lived so much, he has never seen three thousand catties of brown rice, let alone three thousand taels of silver, and his eyes are full of greed: "Say who you want to kill, it is his mother's county government six rooms in charge, and Lao Tzu dares to give him a knife." ”

Shopkeeper Cao deliberately glanced around, the water swing was full of reeds taller than people, and he couldn't see the outside, only a few water geese flew by.

The water at the bottom of the boat was full of reed rhizomes, and it was impossible to see what was in the water.

Luo Xuanfeng said nonchalantly: "These are all their own brothers, and Cao Yuan will say it if he has something to do." ”

Shopkeeper Cao keenly noticed that Luo Whirlwind clenched the short knife, saying that he was brothers, but he was ready to stab these brothers at any time in his heart, and he was very satisfied with his cunning: "Huang Jingbian's horse gang." ”

After saying this, Luo Whirlwind was really planted on the surface of the reeds, if it weren't for a leader who grabbed him quickly, he would have become a water duck with a 'poof'.

Luo Xuanfeng's old face turned red, and he used scolding to cover up his embarrassment: "The surname Cao, are you fucking taking Lao Tzu to make fun of Lao Tzu, the Daoshang brothers who are fighting near Shuntian Mansion, who doesn't know the name of Huang Yuanwai." ”

"Not to mention that Dad is a general in Liaodong, there are three or four horse gangs in his hands, and each horse gang has twenty or thirty Ding Zhuang with fine bird guns."

"What's the matter, I'm on the line of General Huang Shen, and I want Lao Tzu to exchange some military merits for his son?"

The more Luo Xuanfeng spoke, the more he felt that it was like that, he pulled out the short knife on his waist and looked at the shopkeeper Cao viciously.

Shopkeeper Cao waved his hand, and seven or eight more awning boats sailed out of the reeds, and the captain of the boat lifted the tarpaulin covering the awning boat, revealing the contents inside.

Luo Whirlwind subconsciously swallowed his saliva, fearful, and more greedy.

Under the tarpaulin were all arquebuses, and there were even four 36-pound tiger squat cannons on the last two canopy boats.

His brothers under Luo Whirlwind can't even get together short knives, and most of the brothers still use bamboo guns, with these two hundred arquebuses plus four tiger squat guns, they can be a grass king in Baiyangdian.

Although Luo Whirlwind has never read a book, he is not stupid, Shopkeeper Cao is sending wealth and muskets and artillery, is it possible that there is some conspiracy.

Shopkeeper Cao looked at Luo Whirlwind, who was suspicious, and still smiled kindly: "Don't hide it from Commander Luo, the contemptible person has taken a fancy to an outer room of Huang Jingbian, but unfortunately this Huang Jingbian is not interested and is unwilling to sell it to the contemptible person." ”

"The contemptible person likes that beautiful outer room so much, there is no choice but to make this decision."

It turned out to be for a woman.

Luo Whirlwind was completely relieved now, hehe Yile, and showed an expression that I understand: "That old... What's... Contemptible, just... Only... Laughed and took it. ”

Shopkeeper Cao looked at Luo Whirlwind, who was blushing and trying to pretend to be a reader, knowing that this matter was done, he arched his hand and said: "This matter will be bothered by Commander Luo, and after the matter is completed, these worthless things will be given to Commander Luo." ”

Luo Xuanfeng originally planned to return it to him, but with these firearms, he would have the confidence, and he would be afraid of him running errands for the owner, and his chest slapped with a shocking sound: "This matter is wrapped up in Lao Tzu." ”

Shopkeeper Cao left here, and more than twenty of the same canopy boats came to the reeds, and then visited several other bandits in Baiyangdian, showing the same kind smile.

When the shopkeeper Cao left here and stepped on the shore, he turned around and looked at the endless Baiyangdian reeds, and quietly watched for half a pillar of incense.

Before sitting in the sedan chair, he left a sentence that made the nursing homes inexplicable.

"That man should have already ventilated the news."
