Chapter 64: Borrowing a Wild Dog
Seeing Lu Wu suddenly come to the store, Li Zhang was also startled, and hurriedly grabbed the drawings in front of him and stuffed them into his sleeves, but at this time, Lu Wu had already come to him, and when he saw his movements, he couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "What are you hiding?" ”
"It's nothing, Uncle Wu, why are you here, don't you have to be on duty today?" Of course, Li Zhang couldn't let Lu Wu see what was on the paper, so he hurriedly changed the topic at the moment.
"It's good if it's not worth it, I'm here to borrow someone from you today!" Lu Wu sighed at this time, and seemed to be full of concerns.
"Borrow?" Li Zhang also showed a surprised expression when he heard this.
"Yes, the ghost beggars in Tokyo have been so fierce recently, and there is a lot of pressure in the yamen, and now they finally can't bear it, and the top has issued an order, let us catch at least twenty ghost beggars in a month, otherwise we will wait to be punished!" Lu Wu also said helplessly at this time.
"I see, you want to borrow wild dogs, but it's not too much to catch twenty a month?" Li Zhang immediately understood Lu Wu's intention, but then he was a little puzzled, during this time, there must be seven or eight ghost beggars killed by wild dogs alone, and there are so many people in the yamen, in Li Zhang's opinion, it should not be difficult to catch twenty ghost beggars.
"It's easy to say, now those ghost beggars are about to become fine, they usually run away when they rob people at the mouth of the sewer, as long as they enter the sewer, no one can catch up with them, this time the haunted beggars in Tokyo City, but there are less than twenty ghost beggars who have been caught, and most of them are caught by the surrounding people when they rob people, so they directly scolded our gang of servants for eating dry food." When Lu Wu heard Li Zhang's words, he gave him a blank look.
"They didn't become sperm, they were taught to do it!" Just as Lu Wu's words fell, he suddenly heard a cold voice speak, and when the two turned their heads to look, they found that the wild dog had come to the store at some point.
"Someone taught these ghost beggars, could it be that these ghost beggars have begun to be organized?" Lu Wu couldn't help but show a solemn expression when he heard the words of the wild dog, the outside world knew very little about ghost beggars, even if a few ghost beggars were caught in the yamen, there were few things that came out of the interrogation.
"Yes, Tokyo City is so big, the underground passages are intricate, and the ghost beggars used to be divided into several forces, and there would even be fights between each other for territory, but a few years ago, someone had unified the ghost beggars, and now these ghost beggars who came out to rob people are just the outermost ghost beggars, and they know very little information!" The wild dog spoke again.
"And how do you know so clearly?" Lu Wu also asked curiously when he heard this.
However, for Lu Wu's inquiry, the wild dog was silent, it seemed that he didn't want to answer this question, which made Lu Wu also a little annoyed, Li Zhang was afraid that he would be angry, so he hurriedly changed the topic and said: "Wild dog, do you know who the core of the ghost beggars are, and where they usually gather, if you know this, maybe you can exterminate them in one fell swoop!" ”
Lu Wu's eyes lit up when he heard Li Zhang's words, the reason why they couldn't catch the ghost beggars was because these ghost beggars were elusive, and they couldn't get the slightest useful information, but if there was a wild dog, a person who knew the inside story, to lead the way, maybe they could directly take the leader of the ghost beggars.
"It's useless, although I know some of the leaders of the ghost beggars, but these people have no fixed residence, they often change places after a period of time, and the location of the meeting changes from time to time, plus the number of ghost beggars is very vigilant, as long as outsiders break in, it will immediately cause the siege of the ghost beggars, so unless you send a large army down, it is impossible to eliminate the ghost beggars!" The wild dog shook his head and said.
"These people are rats!" Lu Wu couldn't help but hate when he heard this, but since this plan couldn't work, he also spoke again, "Da Lang, lend me the wild dog for a few days, and I'll return it to you after I have caught enough twenty ghost beggars!" ”
"Don't ask me, as long as the wild dog wants to, he can do anything!" Li Zhang spread his hands and said, he has never regarded the wild dogs and beans as his subordinates, let alone his private property, so if Lu Wu wants to borrow someone, he must get the consent of the wild dog.
"I do, but I can only go out during the day and come back at night!" The wild dog immediately replied, Lu Wu taught him martial arts, and he also wanted to help Lu Wu do something, but he still had to protect the safety of his family at night, so he definitely couldn't go out, and he didn't have to worry too much during the day.
"Okay, that's it, I'll pick you up tomorrow!" Seeing that the wild dog agreed, Lu Wu immediately spoke.
After Lu Wu finished speaking, he was about to leave, after all, he came here mainly to borrow wild dogs, but at this time, Li Zhang suddenly grabbed him and whispered: "Uncle Wu, don't you have anything to say?" ”
"Say what?" Lu Wu looked at Li Zhang with wide eyes and asked.
"Uncle Wu, don't pretend to be confused, what is the origin of that Mrs. Liu yesterday?" Li Zhang asked knowingly at this time.
"Don't ask, you kid, I'll tell you when I want you to know in the future!" As Li Zhang's surprise, Lu Wu's tone was really strict, and he refused to reveal half of Liu E's identity.
"Then what is the relationship between you and Mrs. Liu, I think Mrs. Liu should not be an ordinary woman, with your relationship with him, maybe as long as she moves her mouth, you don't have to be a small team leader in the county government anymore." Li Zhang said again, inquiring about the relationship between Lu Wu and Liu E was his real purpose.
"As far as your kid has a lot of flowers, she is her, I am me, and my team leader is doing very well, there is no need to change places!" When Lu Wu heard Li Zhang's words, he glared at him and said.
"Uncle Wu, people go to high places, although your team leader is good, but you are usually not less angry, such as things like ghost beggars, if you can't catch someone, maybe you will be beaten by the board, but if you become an official, who will dare to embarrass you then?" At this time, Li Zhang was tempting again.
"Hmph, what about being an official, do you think officialdom is so easy to mix? It's not that you don't know my character, it's okay for me to fight and kill a few thieves, let me go to the officialdom to play with others, you might as well throw me directly into the fire! Lu Wu glared at Li Zhang again at this time and said, he knew very well that even if his task was completed in the future, he would not want to leave his current position.
"This ......" Li Zhang also felt reasonable when he heard this, and he smiled at the moment and didn't know what to say? However, his two attempts had no effect, which made him a little disappointed.
"Okay, take care of the raccoon, your father probably hasn't come back with a face during this time, and don't ask, knowing too much is not a good thing for you." After Lu Wu finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave here, but at this time, he suddenly paused, and then turned his head to Li Zhang again and said, "Da Lang, no matter what happens in the future, you only need to remember one thing, Uncle Wu and I will always be on your side!" ”
After Lu Wu finished speaking, he turned around and left, not giving Li Zhang a chance to speak again, and Li Zhang was also stunned for a moment, and he was also pondering the meaning of Lu Wu's last sentence in his mind, but Lu Wu's tone was too strict, and he didn't reveal any useful information at all, which made him think for a long time without any clue.
"That's it, I already know too many things today, and the rest of these mysteries should be solved slowly in the future, and they will all be solved one day!" Li Zhang finally shook his head helplessly, and after speaking, he came to the stove where the braised meat was cooking, and then threw the relationship diagram he had drawn before throwing it in, and only left after watching it burn to ashes.
Early the next morning, Lu Wu personally ran to take the wild dog away, and he also left two officials to guard nearby, mainly because Li Zhang's business in the store is so good now, and sometimes there are some blind guys who come to make trouble, just to ask for a few dollars, but there were wild dogs in the past, and these people naturally can't take advantage, but if the wild dogs are not there, it is difficult to say, so Lu Wu left people to replace the wild dogs.
Lu Wu and the wild dog had just left, but another acquaintance came to the store, and when Li Zhang saw each other, he couldn't help but smile in surprise: "It seems that your weight loss has been effective, I haven't seen you for a while, you have lost several laps than before!" ”
The person who came was Jin Shan, who had not been seen for many days, and now he had indeed lost some weight, at least the facial features on his face could be seen clearly, instead of being squeezed like before.
"Thin is thin, but you don't know how hard I've lived during this time!" Jin Shan is a weak way, since his mother did not let him eat meat, he is this half-dead every day, it seems that he has lost the greatest pleasure in life without meat.
"Your mother is also for your good!" Li Zhang also smiled at the moment, and then invited him into the backyard, and then asked curiously, "By the way, didn't I tell you about foie gras last time, did you go back and try it?" ”
As soon as he heard Li Zhang mention the foie gras, Jin Shan finally cheered up and said: "I tried the method you said, I let people fill their stomachs with bamboo tubes every day for more than a dozen ducks, and yesterday I asked people to kill one, and the result is really like you said, this duck's liver is more than half the size of ordinary ducks." ”
"Haha~, see it, your current liver is no worse than that duck's liver, if it becomes cirrhosis in the future, it will be difficult to save the gods." Li Zhang also laughed when he heard this, there is no cure for liver cirrhosis in later generations, and it can only be detected and stopped at an early stage.
"Yes, I was also shocked when I saw the duck liver yesterday, and I have a problem, that is, I am reluctant to waste things, so in the end I fried the duck liver, it was really fragrant, and I didn't hold back and ate it in the end!" When Jin Shan said at the end, he also said with an expression of aftertaste on his face.
"You...... Did you really eat it? Li Zhang couldn't help but point at Jin Shan when he heard this, he just wanted Jin Shan to know the dangers of obesity, but he didn't expect it to have the opposite effect.
"Not only did I eat, but I also let my mother find out, but I didn't hold on, and you confessed to your brother, my mother didn't know that you meant well, and now I'm clamoring to come to you desperately, it is estimated that it will arrive in a while, I came to report a letter, so that you can be prepared." Jin Shan said again with some shamelessness at this time.
