Chapter 14: Born to Pit Hands
Liangshan suddenly had more than 3,000 people, and it seemed to be a mess. Repairing houses, digging wells, dividing fields, and reclaiming wasteland, the whole Liangshan was a busy mess, even several major leaders were personally in battle, Wang Lun was even more busy with his feet not touching the ground, and after half a month, everything was barely restored to order.
Deng Long has not been idle these days, after the sun comes out, he will go to the Broken Gold Pavilion on time to practice calligraphy, and if he does not practice writing twenty or thirty large-character stickers every day, he will definitely not rest.
Whenever Lu Zhishen carried the wood and passed by the Broken Golden Pavilion, that was when Deng Long practiced calligraphy most seriously, and who let Lu Zhishen not pass by, he was majestic and asked Deng Long how many words he had learned today.
At this time, the little minions who worked with Lu Zhishen were all the same, and the owner of the village saw that I was working hard, and Deng Long couldn't wait to run forward and beat everyone up.
On this day, Deng Long was practicing calligraphy in the pavilion, and Zhu Gui came and said: "Brother, Liu Tang robbed a caravan today, guess how much gold and silver there is." ”
Deng Long said disdainfully: "At most, it's just a few thousand pieces of money, what's the fuss." ”
Zhu Gui shook his head and said with a stinky face: "There are 50,000 yuan, my brother didn't expect it!" ”
Deng Long was also surprised, which caravan would go out with so much cash, they all sold goods in the west, bought some local goods with money, and bought them again when they went back to the east, they would definitely not take so much money around them, unless it was ......!
Hurriedly said to Zhu Gui: "Go and bring the leader of the caravan to the Juyi Hall, be polite to others, and don't be rude." ”
He also instructed the little minion: "Go and ask Deng Qing to prepare a banquet." ”
After speaking, he hurriedly ran back to his room, changed into formal clothes, and went to the Juyi Hall to wait for someone.
About half an hour later, Zhu Gui led a middle-aged man in his forties to the Juyi Hall, Zhu Gui said: "This is the caravan leader" After speaking, he sat aside.
Deng Long tried his best to make the appearance that I was a good person, and said with a pleasant face: "Don't be nervous, as long as you answer my questions honestly, I won't treat you badly." ”
The person at the bottom was already frightened by Liu Tang, and now his legs are still sifting chaff, listening to Deng Long's words, he hurriedly replied: "The owner of the village asks, the little one doesn't dare to hide it." ”
Nodding, Deng Long asked expectantly: "Where are you from, what is your name, why do you go out with so much gold and silver, and where are you going?" ”
The middle-aged man sweated profusely and said: "The villain Ye Chun, originally a native of Sizhou, Jiangnan, has a shipyard in Jiangnan, but in recent years, the official family has procured Huashigang in Jiangnan, which made the people of Jiangnan unhappy, and the villain had to sell the shipyard at a low price, with his wife and children, and all the family property is ready to go to Dengzhou to open another shipyard." ”
Deng Long slapped the table, and said with excitement on his face: "Sure enough, it's you, it's really you." ”
Deng Long remembered that in the original trajectory, Chao Gai had robbed a caravan, and it seemed that dozens of boxes of gold and silver had been seized at that time.
And when this guy attacked Liangshan, he ran out to offer the drawings of shipbuilding, the reason is that when he passed by Liangshan, he was robbed of his wealth and lived in Jeju City.
Deng Long was afraid of missing something these days, and he didn't want Liu Tang to give himself such a big surprise today.
Ye Chun was taken aback by Deng Long's words, thinking that Deng Long was going to kill him, so he quickly knelt down and begged bitterly: "The owner of the village spares his life, as long as the owner of the village does not kill us, the villain is willing to join the cottage and offer all the family property." ”
Deng Long hurriedly helped Ye Chun up, and said with a smile: "How could I kill you, I don't want your family property, don't you know how to build a ship!" As long as you stay in Liangshan and build a ship for the cottage, you will also have a share of this Liangshan chair. ”
Ye Chun saw the sincerity of what Deng Long said, so he relaxed a little and whispered: "The villain is willing to stay and build a ship for the owner of the village." ”
Deng Long saw that Ye Chun was frightened today, so he said to Zhu Gui: "Quickly take Ye Chun and Ye Chun brothers down to rest, don't snub Ye Chun brothers!" ”
Zhu Gui nodded, and took Ye Chun to the backyard to bathe and change clothes, eat and rest.
Wu Yong shook the white feather fan and walked in with a figure-eight step, and said with a smile on his face: "Xiao Sheng was outside the door just now, and I felt that my brother valued this Ye Chun very much, could it be that there is a reason why my little brother doesn't know!" ”
In the past few days, he has been living and flying with Yan Po, and others can rarely see Wu Yong's figure, which is really happy! Hearing that Liu Tang robbed a caravan, Deng Long attached great importance to it, I'm afraid this guy is reluctant to be a beauty.
Deng Long looked at Wu Yong and said happily: "Yes, this person must stay, and there is a way for pedants." ”
Wu shook the white feather fan and whispered; "It's a trivial matter, as long as it's so ...... and so ......, this person is his brother driving him away, and he won't leave when the time comes."
Deng Long glanced at Wu Yong, grandma's, this guy hasn't changed in the end, just asked Ye Chun to stay in Liangshan, so he came up with such a vicious strategy, but who made Deng Long very satisfied!
※※※
Zhu Tong sat in the house, looked at the roof, and sighed: "It's been almost twenty days, why hasn't Liangshan let us go down the mountain?" ”
Lei Heng, who was drinking, was calm, glanced at Zhu Tong, and said, "What's the hurry, I don't believe that Chao Baozheng won't keep us here." ”
Zhu Tong thought for a while, and felt that Chao Gai would not be such a person, so he continued to look at the roof and pass the time.
Just when the two of them were silently talking to each other in the house, Lu Zhishen walked in and said with a smile: "Brother invites the two of you to the banquet, you two come with me!" ”
When Zhu Tong and Lei Heng heard that they were invited to the banquet, they were overjoyed, and said in their hearts: I finally remembered us, and I hope I will never return to this broken house.
The two stood up and hugged Lu Zhishen, and followed Lu Zhishen to the living room. Seeing Deng Long, he didn't see the courtesy, and when he saw that there were two seats beside him, he sat down with a straight stunt, and picked up the wine and meat on the table and ate it.
Deng Long saw this scene and said with a wry smile: "A few days ago, the cottage was busy with things, and he neglected the two heads, Deng Long apologized to the two of them again, and asked the two of them not to be strange." After speaking, he stood up and bowed.
Zhu Tong sighed, and said in a bitter tone: "In the days that Lord Deng Zhai forced us to stay in Liangshan, I'm afraid that the outside has already turned the world upside down, right?"
Shaking his head, Deng Long said strangely: "It's very calm outside now, Zhu Dutou doesn't have to worry." ”
Zhu Tong saw that Deng Long was unwilling to tell the truth, so he arched his hand, so he grabbed a piece of beef and ate it, after all, this thing is rare in Yuncheng County.
Shaking his head regretfully, Deng Long said secretly in his heart; The food for more than 20 days is considered to be in vain, and I originally wanted Song Heizi to come to Liangshan to ask for people, but who knew that Song Heizi would not see Song Heizi's figure when he waited left and right.
Three days ago, Deng Long sent someone to send a letter to Song Heizi, but it was also lost in the sea and there was no news. It seems that he can achieve the position of the first brother in Shandong, and the sixth sense of predicting danger should not be underestimated!
Touched the dragon pattern ancient sword beside him, and said unfortunately: The sacrifice for you to open the front was not sent to the door, and I will sacrifice it to you in a few days!
Just when Deng Long was pondering, Wu Yong took Ye Chun's hand and walked in, and after saluting Deng Long, he introduced to everyone: "This is the new brother who went up the mountain, named Ye Chun, is a first-class craftsman in the current shipbuilding, and now sits in the ninth position of the cottage. ”
Ye Chun saluted everyone with a grateful face: "The little brother has just come to take root, and I will ask you brothers to take care of it in the future." ”
Ruan Xiaoqi, who has always been lively, walked over, patted Ye Chun's shoulder, and said affectionately: "If there is anything in the future, the Ye family brothers must not be polite, just come to Xiaoqi." It's just a ship made by my brother, but you have to give me a few first! ”
Everyone was amused by Ruan Xiaoqi and laughed, Ruan Xiaoer laughed and scolded: "Okay, you Xiaoqi, you have a good boat, if you don't honor the second brother first, do you still want to swallow it alone?" ”
Ruan Xiaoqi laughed and said: "The second brother wants money, just take it, it's just a new warship, so let Xiaoqi try the new ship for my brother first." ”
Ruan Xiaowu said strangely: "My brother is settling accounts!" And there was a lot of laughter from the crowd.
After everyone greeted Ye Chun, Wang Lun pulled Ye Chun to sit beside him, shushing the cold and asking for warmth, looking extremely affectionate.
After eating for a while, Wu Yong came to the table made by Zhu Tong and said with a smile: "The two of you don't blame Leader Deng for not greeting him well these days. A few days ago, my brother sent a handwritten letter to Song Gongming, saying that the two were 'guests' in Liangshan, but who knew that there was no news. Now, tomorrow morning, the two of you can go down the mountain and reunite with their families. ”
Zhu Tong sneered: "Do you still want Brother Gongming to come to Liangshan in person and find Deng Long to get back the two of us?" Or do you want Brother Gongming to write a letter and leave a handle for fornicating with Liangshan thieves? ”
"Zhu Dutou misunderstood, Brother Gongming also saved Xiaosheng's life, where could Xiaosheng do such a thing. It's just that Brother Deng Long has admired Brother Gongming for a long time, and he took this opportunity to see Brother Gongming. Who knows......" Wu Yong said with regret on his face.
Lei Heng hurriedly said: "This is not simple, when Leader Deng has time that day, come to Yuncheng County to find me, and I will introduce Leader Deng to Brother Gongming." "He's really scared of the little black house.
Wu Yong hurriedly said yes, and sneered in his heart: No wonder the nickname is [Winged Tiger], if you are on the ground, I am afraid that the bones will be gone long ago, Wu Yong doesn't know where Song Jiang offended Deng Long, Wu Yong inadvertently mentioned it once, Deng Long's killing intent flashed, but it was still noticed by Wu Yong.
Zhu Tong glanced at Lei Heng with disdain, didn't you see Deng Long's 'hospitality'? You also want Deng Long to go to Yuncheng County to see Song Jiang, you are doing death!
"Is tonight's huge banquet just to welcome Ye Chun alone?" Seeing that the atmosphere was delicate, Zhu Tong was also afraid of being locked up in Liangshan again, so he quickly changed the topic.
Wu Yong said with a smile: "Brother Ye Chun has brought no less than 200,000 pieces of gold and silver treasures to Liangshan, which is enough for the cottage to be eaten for several years, and also brought the blueprints of powerful warships, do you say that this pomp is still big?"
Lei Heng gasped and said in shock: "What did Ye Chun do before, how could he have so much money."
Wu Yong said in a low voice: "As far as Xiaosheng knows, this Ye Chun brother was originally a shipbuilding craftsman in Jiangnan, ahem, because Jiangnan was tossed by Daojun (Song Huizong) a lot, so he went to the north to do business." It's time to get moving! In just over a year, he has accumulated a net worth of no less than hundreds of thousands. I don't know what Brother Ye Chun thinks, if a good rich man doesn't do it, he has to come to Liangshan to fall into the grass, alas, it's a pity"! Wu shook his head regretfully.
Listening to Wu Yong's words, Lei Heng's chest suddenly became hot, if he knew Ye Chun's business experience, wouldn't he be rich! Hurriedly asked with an eager face: "Can the pedant know what this Ye Chun used to do, and it also opened Lei's eyes"?
Zhu Tong couldn't wait to rush forward and slapped Lei Heng's two big mouths. What business can make so much money? Even if you find a gold mountain, I'm afraid you won't be able to mine hundreds of thousands of pieces in a year! It's nothing more than doing something unseemly big, such as Chao Gaiqi seven people robbing the Birth Gang and obtaining 100,000 gold and silver treasures, thinking of this Zhu Tong stood up with a 'hoof'."
Lei Heng saw that Zhu Tong's face had changed, and his face that was originally like jujube red had become purple and black, thinking that Zhu Tong had also been moved, and said with a smile: "Why should Zhu Dutou be anxious, as long as Professor Wu is willing to say, are you still afraid that you won't be able to hear?" After saying that, he thought it was funny, so he laughed out loud.
Zhu Tong laughed twice, touched the cold sweat on his forehead, sat on the chair with his buttocks, and said in a dry voice: "I'm out of shape, don't laugh, please ask Professor Wu to solve your doubts." ”
Wu Yong smiled lightly: "When Xiao Sheng heard the news, he was not much better than Zhu Dutou. At that time, he hurriedly asked Ye Chun's brother how to make money, but Ye Chun shirked it in a thousand ways, but he refused to say. Xiaosheng had no choice but to give up, just ....... ”
Lei Heng said anxiously: "Just what? Professor, say it!"
Wu Yong exhaled and said to the two: "When Xiao Sheng was counting the money that Brother Ye Chun took up the mountain, he found that the payment of the silver ingots of the gold ingots was not the year name cast by the government, but the word longevity, I don't know why?" ”
