The blacksmith rebel army fled to Qingzhou with all the people of the village, and fought desperately for days to loot and continued to run around, and the tense mental and physical fatigue made the adult blacksmith who was accustomed to hard work unable to hold on.

At this time, they happened to inadvertently bump into Baihu Mountain.

Wang Xiao and other leaders of the cottage also thought that the villagers who passed through the common annual investment in the coast to make a living and find a way to move the village had to repay the mule-drawn cart a lot, and the things pulled were many and heavy, and the money should not be less, this is a big fat sheep, and it cannot be let go.

They bullied the fleeing villagers and were afraid that they would not make sense, and they were scattered and fled as soon as they rushed and killed, and they were not afraid of the other party's large number of people, and rushed down the mountain to loot, but they encountered hard stubble, and the sheep was fat, but it was made of steel.

Wang Xiao challenged, and he was almost slashed by the increasingly irritable and fierce Shi Yingde.

Fortunately, in the mixed society, he can bend and stretch, be flexible and good at improvising, and the leaders of Baihu Mountain hurriedly recognized Shi Gugong as their eldest brother.

Although the blacksmith minds such as the father and son of the Shi family have a general survival plan in their hearts, they occupy the mountains along the coast of Qingzhou, and if they can't do it, they simply throw pirates and try to start a new life overseas, but they don't have a specific goal for a while, and they are sleepy and tired, and the old and young can't stand it, and they really can't walk.

I stayed in Baihu Mountain for more than half a month, and I didn't get along well with the old leader, and I was thinking about a way out to leave here, and then I accidentally met Zhao Yue today.

After listening to the story, Zhao Yue frowned slightly, not only for Qian Shouyi's good face caused a lot of twists and turns in the family and friends, but also realized that there were other problems, but he still had something to do, and the time was pressing, so he didn't think about it much, and appeased the six people, saying that since they were the relatives of Qian Steward, that is, their own family, when they met me, you don't have to worry about anything, listen to my arrangement, everything is nothing, vaguely point out the way out guarantee, assume the responsibility of protection, and ask about the situation of the cottage.

Shi Gugong and others were forced to have no choice but to go out to kill officials and rebel, never thought that they would one day become a rebel in the Great Song Dynasty, it can be said that they did not have the slightest preparation to be a robber physically and mentally, and now they have become a fact of robbers, and they have been doing it for more than half a month, and they still haven't adapted to the drastic change of role, although they have a survival plan in their hearts, they are actually desperate in the Great Song Dynasty, and they are facing the disaster of being chased and killed by officers and soldiers day by day, and they are dazed and panicked and anxious day and night. Hearing that Zhao Yue was not afraid that they were the traitors who killed officials, they took them in and provided all the guarantees, and with the relationship between Cangzhao's cattle and the world's famous good reputation and rich housekeepers, they didn't think much about it and believed Zhao Yue's promise, and the hearts that were hanging in the air suddenly fell to the ground, and they all showed the relaxed smiles from their hearts these days.

The atmosphere of the scene was relaxed and lively.

The robbers over there couldn't hear the conversation clearly, but they saw the leader making a reassuring gesture to them, and saw the relaxed and joyful expressions of the boss and the other six men and women, and their faces were completely free of sorrow and anxiety, they didn't know what was going on, but they also breathed a sigh of relief, and they were no longer tense and hostile to Zhao Yue and his party.

Shi Gugong and the others excitedly introduced the situation of the cottage, focusing on the nine leaders on the mountain.

Wang Xiao and other brothers, father and son, are similar in nature to Tian Hu before their careers, but they have the skills of skilled craftsmen to eat, and they also have the courage and courage to eat, and what they pursue is nothing more than to eat and drink spicy food, free and unrestrained, and not angry, when the anti-thieves do not make a big fuss, there is no political ambition, and when they are 'good people', they usually use their own forces and their subordinates to run rampant in the township, they are local civilian bullies, wandering on the edge of legal and social rules, and frequent visitors to the 'police station'.

This kind of people, throughout the ages, whether in the city or in the countryside, have existed, and they can be found everywhere.

In normal years, the government, landlords, and wealthy gentry sometimes need to use this kind of evil civil force to help them do something that is inconvenient for officials or decent people to do. As soon as the world is in chaos, this kind of person is the seedling and root cause of the robbers, and as soon as the crime is exposed and becomes the government and does not tolerate it, it will inevitably become an anti-thief and make a fuss. The father and son of the Wang Xiao brothers are still in the stage of being a rogue who only cares about being at large in front of him, and is at ease and happy as his own boss.

Anyway, there's nothing to say.

When Zhao Yue heard the names of the four cottage leaders, Chen Jianwen, Chen Jianming, Chen Jianguang, and Chen Jiansui, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

It turned out that the four thieves actually fled to this place and continued to cause trouble to the world.

Zhao Yue knew that these four little-known people, but the four of them were from Cangzhou, and they had committed great crimes in Cangzhou not long ago, and they were the first batch of local locals who dared to commit rampant murder in the past few years since the eldest brother Zhao Gonglian ruled Cangzhou to strictly rectify his hometown, so the four thieves can be said to be famous in Cangzhou, and they are celebrities who have been on the headlines in Cangzhou and can be at the top of the news list for a long time, and they have indirectly had a wonderful connection with Zhao Yue's family. Zhao Yue didn't know that it was difficult for the four of them.

The four thieves were originally from Leling County, one of the five counties under Cangzhou, and they were brothers born to a mother, born in a small landlord family, and they were able to read, and they were at least not stupid, but they were good at playing with guns and sticks. This is not uncommon in areas close to border passes, especially in the hometown of martial arts such as Cangzhou.

The bad thing is that the four brothers are idle, they like to be rampant, domineering, bullying, eating, drinking, prostituting, gambling, cheating, and proficient in everything, especially the boss Chen Jianwen is smart and reads a lot, and he is the most cunning and ferocious, and he has made a lot of unearned wealth miserable, and he has made people unable to say anything but secretly scolded as the four rotten beasts, but he has made his family business bigger than he is conceited.

The parents no longer scolded the four brothers for being a loser and not being angry, and they were complacent with the benefits.

Chen Jianwen took the three brothers to be happy and proud for a while, and he felt that he couldn't show the four brothers when he walked like that, but he finally encountered a threshold after walking too much on the black road, and was transferred by Zhao Gonglian to assist in the governance of Cangzhou's county magistrate after he took office.

In the blink of an eye, the Chen family has changed from a free landlord and bully to a beggar household whose compensation and fines are not enough to pay all the family property, the land is gone, the house is gone, there is nothing left, only life is left, and it is already a great luck to not eat the prison meal of life imprisonment or even lose his head.

At this time, the parents of the four brothers were no longer proud of their son's intelligence, courage and ability, and could not withstand the wandering torture of poverty and hardship, and could not withstand the huge gap in status from Baozheng, who was feared by everyone in the village, to a stray dog who was despised and trampled on mercilessly, and perhaps finally understood conscience and shame, and died one after another.

After being released from prison and serving hard labor, the four brothers could not survive in their hometown, and they were reluctant to leave Cangzhou, which was becoming more and more prosperous and powerful.

The reason why they went to Nanpi, instead of the richer and more beautiful Qingchi or Yanshan counties, was that Nanpi was far away from Leling, and the notoriety of villains like them in a small place would not spread to Nanpi, and they would not be guarded and hostile by the Nanpi people, and they were not under the direct control of Cangzhao Wei.

Having tasted the taste of the iron fist, the four brothers who suffered a lot were really afraid of Wen Chenghou's terrible governance methods.

At this time, Zhao Gonglian had been transferred to Qingzhou, and Zheng Juzhong took over as the Taishou of Cangzhou. The situation in Cangzhou began to change.

The four brothers also behaved honestly when they arrived in Nanpi, striving to find a chance to make a living in a new place, and they quickly found it.

In the countryside of Nanpi County, there is a relatively large landlord surnamed Ge, known as Ge Laocai.

This is a typical Grandtai character, greedy and stingy, but not just a miser, indeed very smart, good way to make money, first seized the opportunity of the rise of Cangzhao business development, take advantage of the geographical advantage, actively participate in doing business with Cangzhao, and operate tricky, make a lot of money, with the decline of Cangzhao business, and see the opportunity and huge profits of coastal smuggling, there is nothing to dare to do for money, he is not afraid to hesitate, immediately with higher enthusiasm and dedication to participate in it, more famous.

Having tasted the rapid and huge benefits of smuggling, Ge Laocai naturally wanted to vigorously expand the smuggling team, and he was in great need of a skilled hand in force.

The four brothers of the Chen family are all martial arts, their skills are not bad, they came at the right time, they easily got a job for Ge Laocai's family, and became the four good smugglers, and they are all literate and literate, have experience in doing illegal things and managing illegal teams, and can take on more jobs, Chen Jianwen is cunning and resourceful, not only always has the ability to solve some problems for Ge Laocai in a timely manner, which greatly reduces Ge Laocai's worry and burden, but also seems diligent and honest. seems to be a poor man who is dedicated to following the Ge family and working hard and loyal, and has no way out, but the four brothers soon became the backbone of Ge Laocai's smuggling group, and then they became the core figures.

They did work honestly under the power of Cangzhao, lived a peaceful life, enjoyed the harvest of hard work and danger, and although they still had ambitions, they did not dare to make trouble.

But gradually, they found that the situation in Cangzhou had changed, the new prefect Zheng Juzhong was not an official like Zhao Gonglian, and the officials and officials of Cangzhou counties had also changed as a whole, and the official government had not only returned to the old phenomenon of greed and ferocity in the past, but it seemed to be better, but for a while, the strong civil order established by Wen Chenghou had not yet shown the power of the scourge, but no matter what, it is a fact that the prestige of Cangzhao is rapidly fading in a place like Nanpi, and it seems that Cangzhao has begun to lose power, and it is no longer the existence that the government and the opposition are in awe of in the past. Although the folk customs of Nanpi County still maintain seriousness and unity, they have also begun to disdain their children and grandchildren and even lawbreakers.

These discoveries made the four Chen brothers' bad intentions that they had forcibly pressed on them start to stir again.

They were no longer willing to listen to the restraint and command of others, wantonly reprimand, and work hard and risk for that little income, and their eyes involuntarily and greedily stared at Ge Laocai's fat family property.

But how can you legally get your hands on the property of the shrewd Ge miser?

At this time, the four Chen brothers did not have the idea of killing people and taking money, and they habitually imagined that they used to use tricks to set up pits in their hometown to obtain legally.

It just so happened that Ge Laocai was rich and wealthy, no matter how much money he had, he had no children and grandchildren, only a daughter, not only grew up, but was already twenty years old, but he didn't even decide on his parents.

That's the opportunity.

Chen Jianwen is conceited and looks good, not only has force, but also has poetry and books, it can be said that he is both civil and military, and he still has a good demeanor, he is almost thirty years old but has not married, and he is Ge Laocai's most powerful and inseparable smuggling helper, all kinds of conditions are suitable for being the Ge family's son-in-law, and Ge Laocai will not refuse, so he will ask for marriage.

Who knows, Ge Laocai not only refused on the spot without hesitation, but did not give the 'right-hand man' a chance and face, and told Chen Jianwen unmistakably with that look: "You are just a lowly slave of my family, relying on me to have food and a house to live in, and you dare to marry my daughter with the same thing as a dog?" ”

Miss Ge is twenty years old, and there is no shadow of a major marriage event, not because she is ugly or has any disability to marry, but on the contrary, she has to have a good look, she is very beautiful, knowledgeable, and shrewd and capable of inheriting from her father, she has good ideas for Ge Laocai's business, hides behind the scenes, manages the affairs of the housekeeper, handles various personnel relationships, and makes up for the discord caused by her father's too stinginess.

Ge Laocai, a person who regards money as 10,000 times more important than anything else, and money is the closest to him, his favorite and inseparable lifeline, leaving his daughter to such a big age, naturally it is not that he can't bear to be separated, and the most distressing money and food he spends at home is that he needs his daughter's mind to help make money, and he is reluctant to release his daughter early, on the other hand, it is a consideration of interests. To put it bluntly, it is precisely because of his daughter's excellence that he wants to exchange his daughter for the greatest benefits, but he can't find a rich and powerful son-in-law he is satisfied with due to his identity and other reasons, and he can't sell it at his ideal price, so Miss Ge's marriage has never been put on the agenda.

Initially, Ge Laocai had the idea of Zhao Gonglian, Marquis of Wencheng.

Cangzhao, that is to have power, to have a promising future, to have money, that is to have a mountain of money. If there is a son-in-law of the next head of the family and the future prime minister of Cangzhao, the next head of the family and the future prime minister, oops, it is worth it for the daughter to marry.

It's a pity, not to mention that Zhao Gonglian is dedicated to public affairs and has no intention of taking another concubine, even if he wants to, the elders of the family will never agree when they hear Ge Laocai's stingy and mean name.

Ge Laocai is destined to be blind and busy at this point.

In addition, in addition to the objective gaps in identity and social status, Ge Laocai is not so confident in his daughter's excellence.

Without it.

Miss Ge, like her maternal grandfather, is a big man, a full 1.7 meters tall, although her figure is as protruding and backward as Victoria's Secret supermodel, she can be regarded as a beautiful woman, and she is definitely a popular beauty in the world where Zhao Yuelai is full of suitors.

However, this is not the 21st century, it is the aesthetic era of the Great Song Dynasty, and the aesthetic standard that men love, or that scholars love and advocate to lead the decision, is that women should be small and cute to be beautiful, and girls who are as tall as Fanren are first excluded, and then talk about factors such as specific appearance and skin literacy, and the age is even younger.

Miss Ge is very sad that she is not a beauty, and she is also old. She wants to marry an ideal partner, and her father wants to sell her for a good price, which is not easy.

But Ge Laocai never gave up, and at the beginning of the year, he set his sights on the son Zheng Juzhong brought to Cangzhou. wants to sell her daughter as a concubine at a high price.
