Not to mention that Yang Lin met with Liu Er through the recommendation of his cousin Yao Chen, and finally hung his name at Wu Kui, the steward of Tian Daguan's door. Let's just say that the man who ran out of the auspicious inn, this person's surname is Shi Mingxiu, he heard Yang Lin drink behind his back that day, turned his head to see that it was a group of people with Yao Chen, and without saying a word, he turned around and ran out of the inn.

He made a living from Yao Chen, but he had some money in his hand, and it was naturally enough to return to his hometown Jiankang Mansion. But Shi Xiu never dared to go back. This reselling sheep and horses in the north made a lot of money, and the capital was not only his uncle's. If he goes back like this today, everyone will come to his uncle's house to ask for capital, and only with the background of his uncle's family, he can compensate, and his family will have to be surrounded by walls. How do you spend your life with his aunt and younger siblings?

On the contrary, they will not go, and outsiders will think that their uncle and nephew had an accident on the way, and the partner will not have the face to force his uncle and mother to pay back. Otherwise, the neighbors will slander them, and they will not be spared in their tongues.

Besides, if he wants to go home, when his uncle just died of illness, he had already helped the coffin back to his hometown, so why bother to go north and south again and regain that family business? Isn't it that he is so high-spirited, and he is determined to earn back the lost capital, so he returns to his hometown and is glorious. also repaid his uncle for his kindness over the years.

is so embarrassed and depressed now, but Shi Xiu will not return to his hometown if he dies.

This is the mood of the Chu overlord who has no face to see Jiangdong's father. In today's era, going out to do business like this has cost more money, and there are more people who don't want to return to their hometowns. Shi Xiu is just one of them!

But people can not return to their hometowns, but they must continue to live. Shi Xiu has a body of martial arts, extraordinary strength, has been running north and south for several years, and it can also be said that he has a little knowledge, and he also knows more about the fur on the sheep horse, such as being able to see if there is a disease, and will look at the horse's mouth.

It's just that Shi Xiu is a person who wants to save face, he was a small boss yesterday, and now he is going to be reduced to a wage earner, how to pull the skin down?

After a few days of fundraising, Shi Xiu passed by outside the city several times, but he still didn't take a step in. Until this day he heard the news from passers-by that there was a new arrival in the south of the high roller, who wanted to recruit a man who was familiar with horses, which was commonly known as a stableman.

This profession is very suitable for Shi Xiu. With Shi Xiu's accumulated experience in the past few years, as well as his ability to save a horse, there is no doubt that he was accepted, signed a note with each other, and set a date for June.

In this way, Shi Xiu found a new path and started his new life. First he rented a piece of land outside the city with the man in charge of the business, and made it a horse farm. In the next half of the month, I saw horses being sent. With Shi Xiu's eyes, it can also be seen that these horses are all first-class healthy horses. And there are more than you think.

I thought that the owner had recruited a total of thirty or fifty people to be stables, and it was to traffic one or two hundred horses south, but at present, there are probably 300 horses in the reserve in the field.

Yang Lin only completely walked through the door of the big officials of Natian today, and got the credentials, so he had time to come to the racecourse to take a look in person. As a result, he found that he had seen the man who had turned around and left that day in the auspicious inn in the stables.

Shi Xiu's face was blue and white. I never imagined that I would give a ...... and work hard. He was angry in his heart, but for a while, he couldn't find an appropriate word to locate Yang Lin.

First of all, he knew that this Yang Lin was a new southern master of Jizhou City, and he might even be the capital of the southern generals. Look at the characters under him, his eyes are like knives, he is fierce and powerful, and his demeanor is obviously different from ordinary people, I am afraid that it is not the strong pawn selected from the generals behind the scenes.

Then this is obviously not the same as Yao Chen, and there is more business to find Yao Chen's head. If the deal in front of him falls into the hands of Yao Chen, this guy will make a fortune.

When Shi Xiu thought of this, he also lamented in his heart, why wasn't his life so good?

"Xiao Ke Yang Lin, the people of the rivers and lakes are called the Jin Leopard. In the early years, he also used to hang out in Jizhou, and now he has found a place in the south. I heard that the Shixiu brothers are strong in martial arts, and it is best to fight unevenly, and they are called San Lang. Such righteousness makes Xiao Ke smell it and be fascinated. It's all strange that Xiao Ke didn't know how good he was that day, so that Yao Chen made a big profit, and today he specially invited a strong man to drink a few cups, and he met here, and he was righteous and made amends! ”

Shi Xiu is a good-looking person, as soon as he heard Yang Lin speak like this, he was really courteous to him, and the resentment in his heart immediately disappeared. Gai didn't hinder Yang Lin's sin because of this: "My brother's name and younger brother have also heard of it, but I haven't heard my brother's name spread in recent years, so it turns out that I have a home, which is a great luck." It is not appropriate to see dignity today, to be treated with such courtesy, and to be given wine and money. ”

Yang Lin didn't take Shi Xiu very seriously, because there were many untrue rumors in the rivers and lakes, this Shi Xiu only took the business route, and never appeared in the green forest. And he himself bears the heavy responsibility of the cottage, but he doesn't dare to lose the big because of the small. If you miss it that day, you will also miss it, but I never thought that the two of them would be so fateful that they would be a stableman under them. But in this way, he will not leak the slightest word about Liang Shanbo.

At that time, the people arrived in Jeju, and there were people and horses from the Yangsanbo Brigade to pick them up, if this Shixiu was willing to go up the mountain, then take it with them. During this period, there is time to observe him, if he is really righteous and strong, he is really strong in martial arts, and he will be recommended at that time, and he will be self-righteous.

After looking at the horse farm, Yang Lin took two guards and went straight to Yinmachuan. It is located on the border of the Liao and Song Dynasties, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and it is also a good place to relax. Then Deng Fei was overjoyed when he saw Yang Lin; After listening to Yang Lin's intentions, he found the jade banner pole that had just gone up the mountain. Since this Meng Kang killed the promoter, he fled to the green forests on the rivers and lakes to settle down, and it has been a long time. But he has just joined the company to drink Ma Chuan, and he has gathered two or three hundred minions to be happy!

In the middle of everyone's eating and drinking, Yang Lin said at the banquet that Lu Qianhao was unparalleled, Liangshan Bo acted righteously, eliminated violence and peace, and many benefits came; All the leaders work together, and the eight hundred miles of Liangshan are so majestic, with Wanzi City and Li'er Depression in the middle, and there is a vast smoke and water in all directions; There are also many military horses, so why worry about the arrival of officers and soldiers. But speak to him both. In the end, the heart of the fiery man was hot, and he bluntly said that he was willing to go to the big village to join the gang.

In this way, Yang Lin's lack of manpower is also complete. There are also more than 300 people and horses in the huge Drinking Horse River, and there are more than ten cars with wealth, not counting grain and forage. In this way, the two phases are added, and the characters are complete.

In May, the sun in the sky was hot, but Yang Lin shouted for the people to go south. Sixty percent of the three thousand taels of gold were spent, and the remaining thousand taels of gold were not enough to buy horses. If there are more, it will touch the bottom line of the government, and the brand of Tian Daguan will not be used at that time.

When Lu Qian received the letter sent back by Yang Lin, it was already the end of mid-May.

At this time, his two eyes were staring at the Daimyo Mansion with one eye, and the other at Chao Gai Chao Heavenly King.

Sun Sheng, the Duke of the Cloud Dragon, is a very character in the Water Margin, and Lu Qian really wants to see if he, the Cloud Dragon, will still look for Na Chao Gai to make that big deal now.

In the blink of an eye, go back to another decade.

Li Si in the Daimyo's Mansion has already spread a lot of news one after another, such as that Liang Zhongshu's is indeed a great gift of 100,000 yuan. It's just that this gift money was not borne by Liang Zhongshu alone, but by many large and small official eunuch families in the Daimyo Mansion, and they were enshrined to Cai Jing together.

Why?

The cover is out of this year's imperial examination.

For the official eunuchs, scholars, gentry, etc., the imperial examination was the most important means to maintain the wealth, power, and glory of the family during the Song and Song dynasties. But if you can enter the Shiden Branch, then coming to a family means that there are successors.

In this year's imperial examination, there were 1,000 and 57 people who won special performances in March, of which 510 were of the fourth class or above.

Isn't it incredible? One list took a thousand people. It is said that Qin Hui was selected this year, and the ranking is very high.

During the time of the Song Dynasty, the Zhao and Song dynasties designated the first and second classes as the first and second class as the Jinshi and the first, the third class as the origin of the Jinshi, the fourth class as the birth of the same Jinshi, and the fifth class as the birth of the classmates. Then the third class can try to know the county [not the seventh grade. In the Tang and Song dynasties, the seventh-rank official was quite big], the fourth first-class trial rank was Bo Lieutenant, and the fifth first-class judge Si Bo Lieutenant. This old Zhao family is so generous, you can imagine why the Northern Song Dynasty was redundant.

Many families in the Daimyo Mansion were involved in the Birth Compendium this year, obviously for a reason. That Li Si had already heard about the imperial examination in the Daimyo's Mansion, and people knew the reason.

Such ill-gotten gains are naturally unhindered!

100,000 pieces of gold, silver and jewelry is not a small amount. Enough cottage to consume in March and May. And who can guarantee that it will really be 100,000? Let Lu Qian be the head of the family, in order to make some of the descendants come in, he can afford to give up how much money he has. Just like the "school district room" in later generations, isn't this all the same truth?

What's more, it's easy to get money.

That Liang Shijie sent people to secretly go to the Birth Gang under the guise of secretly going to the Birth Gang, but in fact, he quietly sent his henchmen to transport them out of the Daimyo's Mansion in a horse-drawn carriage, and then went to Tokyo by water. Li Sizao ordered people to keep an eye on the four gates, got the exact news, and reported it to Lu Qian's hands. This is simply a windfall, and he will lose money if he doesn't take it. At that moment, he asked Ruan Xiaoqi to take the sailor brothers he selected to Hebei.

At this time, Lu Qian got the news that Yang Lin handed it back again, the jade banner rod had been found, and he had earned an extra fiery Deng Fei. This Deng Feijianghu rumored that he eats more human flesh, but it is all false. Yang Lin explained these things in the letter, but he knew Lu Qian's 'temperament and temper'. If Deng Fei really ate that human flesh, Lu Qian would never tolerate him.

In addition, he wrote about Shi Xiu, bluntly saying that this person's martial arts are extraordinary, and his reputation in the rivers and lakes is not bad, but he is a good man. But I want to be a referral and earn Shixiu to go up the mountain.

Lu Qian looked at the corners of his mouth, but he was also happy to see Shi Xiu go up the mountain. Although this Shi Xiu is also unclear in his opinion, there are no bad deeds in the original book, except for him and Yang Xiong, who killed Pan Qiaoyun so miserably. The one who moved the knife was also Yang Xiong!

According to reason, this Shi Xiu is a martial artist, and he would rather make a living by collecting firewood, in order not to do the capitalless business of robbing and plundering goods, this person has a certain bottom line. But it's only because Shi Yucun's "Shi Xiu" is written so that he has a deep memory. And the part where he partnered with Yang Xiong to kill Pan Qiaoyun really made Lu Qian in his previous life look uncomfortable. Yes, Pan Qiaoyun should be killed, there will still be love killing in the 21st century. cheated on himself and sowed discord, with the background of the current era, such a poisonous woman should indeed be killed. But no matter how much you hate, you will be killed with a knife, and the knife will be cut straight from the heart to the little belly, take out the heart, liver and five internal organs, and hang it on the pine tree, which really makes Zhang Qian, who was reading the book at the beginning, stunned, so that his soul pierces Lu Qian, and he thinks about it in his heart. But thinking that Wu Song killed Pan Jinlian, Lu Junyi killed Jia's family, cutting his belly and cutting his heart seems to be the standard configuration of the Water Margin.

However, looking at Yang Lin's description of Shi Xiu in the letter, this person's life experience is also vivid. It's more than the old impression in his mind, the image of collecting firewood for a living. Looking at Yang Lin, he said that he had been in business for two years, lost all the remaining capital of his uncle, and offended many people.

Lu Qian smiled and said that Shi Xiu's nickname, desperate San Lang, his temper is naturally not good, and it is strange that he can do good business. Therefore, character can really determine fate. And since his uncle went to the north to sell cattle and sheep, the capital must be not small, and it is impossible for his uncle to lose all his money as soon as his uncle dies, and he will be reduced to collecting firewood for a living......

The question is whether this desperate Saburo is willing or not.
