In the main hall of the Zhaoxian Pavilion, Sanniang cleared her throat and continued: "In this world, in the court, traitors and eunuchs are in charge, corrupt officials and corrupt officials are rampant, and in the locality, local tyrants and bullies collude with the government, fish and flesh the people, and harm one party. All the brothers here are instructors, and the bullies are so persecuted that they can't survive, so they just escaped from the rivers and lakes. The three leaders of Shaohua Mountain also fell into the grass like this. I think that when you can be a good citizen, who wants to be left to the point of being a ruin? ”

Pei Xuan and Meng Kang were both headed, and both of them were forced by Shangguan to have no way out, so they fell into the grass. Yang Lin and Deng Fei also nodded unconsciously, although the two of them had already been in exile in the rivers and lakes, they had also been forced by the government and bullies before, so they were exiled in the rivers and lakes. Chai Jin drank a bowl of wine and didn't make a sound. Sanniang glanced at Gongsun Sheng again, and Gongsun Sheng smiled generously and said: "People outside the square can't see the jackals, tigers and leopards in charge today, and the poor road is going down the mountain, just to do the way for heaven and remove the injustices in the world." ”

Sanniang said with a smile: "Mr. has the same ambition as me, that is, the four words of Tianxingdao." After a pause, Sanniang continued: "Mr. Shicai said that to do the right thing for heaven is to remove the injustices in the world, uphold justice for the people, rob the rich and help the poor, and then be regarded as a good man." How shall you walk in this way, and give to the poor? Since we are all going to do the right thing for heaven, we can't rob houses and houses, and the people work hard to earn money and food, and the merchants work hard to earn money, and it is unjust for us to rob them. But if we don't plunder, we won't even be able to feed ourselves, so how can we do the right thing for heaven and rob the rich to help the poor? ”

Deng Fei said: "Hu officials, we can rob the rich officials and businessmen, take one share for ourselves and keep it, and scatter the rest to the poor people, that is, rob the rich and help the poor, and we can also do the right thing for heaven." ”

Sanniang smiled: "Robbing the rich and helping the poor is not a bad way, but there is a hidden worry, listen to me." We do this thing of falling into the grass, it is not a business without capital, the cost of this kind of business is actually big, we are doing a business of licking blood on the knife, and the capital is our net worth! Which high-ranking family is not a farmer with a nursing home? Which one is not all in collusion with the government and supported by the official army? Let's rob these rich people, we always have to fight desperately, and use our lives and blood in exchange for reward, which is called blood reward! ”

Gongsun Sheng nodded and said, "Hu Guanren's words make a lot of sense, and Poor Dao never thought of this section. Sanniang smiled slightly and continued: "There are high and low blood rewards, for example, if you die ten brothers, you can rob a rich family and get a thousand taels of silver." Sometimes when you encounter a hard hand, you will die a hundred brothers, and you will also get a thousand taels of silver, and the judgment will be made. It is a precarious move to rob the rich, it is difficult to grow the cottage, and it is even more difficult to stabilize the hearts of the brothers. ”

Yang Lin said: "What Hu Guanren said is that I and Deng Fei have also partnered with each other to do this kind of business a few times before, and the last time I met that rich family, there were many powerful people, not only did the money not arrive, but I almost gave away two lives, and they also fled, and they each ended up in the rivers and lakes. ”

Hu Sanniang nodded and said: "That's exactly the truth, but all the people who fall into the grass in the world, I divide them into two categories: rogue and sitting, and you don't have to be angry, Kou is Kou, there is no need to cover up, and there is no need to be arrogant." ”

Gongsun Sheng smiled: "This is the truth, we are all giants" Everyone laughed and listened to Sanniang's words.

Sanniang continued: "The rogues are going around robbing homes and houses, robbing the rich and helping the poor. Those who act like this, whether they rob the road or rob large households and villages, rob large households and villages, after looting, the population will flee and all industries will wither, and next time you will have no place to rob, they will all kill chickens and take eggs. If there are too many robbers, people will not go to you, and you will cross the line to beg for food on the ground of other heroes, which will also make people suspicious. ”

When Chai Jin heard this, he choked on a sip of wine, hurriedly went to the silk scarf to wipe his mouth and said, "Then dare to ask the official, how does this sitting coward act?" ”

Sanniang said with a smile: "Sitting on the Kou is much smarter, these heroes occupy one side, but all the pedestrians and businessmen who pass by, from now on the road, the head of the road to collect a penny, the goods according to a thousand Wen to take twenty or thirty Wen, to ensure that you pass safely." He also ensured the security of the territory and the people, appeased the law and order, taught the people to farm with peace of mind, and when the harvest came, they also collected half or one percent of the rice grain as a worship, which was the house fee. There are also markets around the area, which operate hotels, restaurants, gambling houses, hooks and other industries, which can also be used as input transactions. In this way, money and food will come in an endless stream for my cottage to recruit troops and horses, and when the soldiers are strong and strong, they can expand and protect more people. But when there are rich bullies who are unkind to the rich and oppress the people, the soldiers in my village are strong and strong, and the power is unmatched, so we can eradicate them at will and uphold justice for more people. ”

All the heroes feel that it makes sense, and their own power is strong, so they can do a good job of doing the right thing for heaven and robbing the rich and helping the poor.

Sanniang said again: "You are right, Shaohua Mountain is in the left near the village, the state and county, it is another government yamen, the government can not preside over justice, Shaohua Mountain to preside, the rich bullies that the government does not dare to manage, Shaohua Mountain to manage, the people who the government can't govern, Shaohua Mountain to govern!" ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard it, and after a while, Deng Fei said: "Hu Guanren, don't you take care of the state and county government and the official army?" ”

Hu Sanniang smiled, pointed to the servant sitting opposite, and said, "Please ask this brother to talk about this matter." ”

The congregation officer got up and waved it and said: "Xiao Ke's surname is Chen Mingjing, and he has another layer of identity in any rank of subordinate officials in Shaohua Mountain, which is to serve as the secretary of the government of Huayin County. ”

As soon as these words came out, Deng Fei and Yang Lin jumped up and said: "It's not good, there are people who do business here." Sanniang and the congregation officer both laughed, and Gongsun Sheng said: "Don't panic, two virtuous brothers, didn't this Chen Zhisi say, he is still a first-class subordinate official of Shaohua Mountain." ”

Yang Lin and Deng Fei were both a little confused, and Meng Kang was also a little confused: "Are you an official or a hero?" ”

Chen Jing smiled: "Yes and no, neither is it." In fact, in these counties of Huazhou, the subordinate officials and the people who do the public are now seven or eight out of ten people from Shaohua Mountain and Shijiazhuang, and what we are doing is doing the right thing for heaven. ”

Pei Xuan asked, "Can you take a person like me who is on the run?" Chen Jingdao: "Pei Kongmu and Brother Meng Kang were framed by others, and they were wronged, so they naturally didn't take it." Although Brother Yang and Brother Deng have done things to rob their homes, they have never been arrested, so naturally they will not take it. When you arrive in Huazhou, if you still commit a crime, you will take it. ”

Yang Lin sighed: "My lord, there are still such things in the world, and the heroes who fell into the grass sat in the official office, collected taxes for the government, protected the territory and the people, and governed one side, what a great thing." ”

Chai Jin frowned and said, "Hu Guan, don't you care about the local magistrate and the local military horses?" Sanniang said: "This is thanks to the official system of the Great Song Dynasty, whether it is a county order or a government Yin, it is a three-year term, sometimes shorter, and it will be transferred in less than a year." However, the subordinate officials and the people who do the public will not change, and they generally have to do it for one or two decades, and these officials will not be able to succeed when they go to the locality, no matter what they do, they need the help of the officials and the public. What's more, there are no officials and no greed, those officials make some money to buy it, and they don't care about us. As long as we, the heroes who have fallen into the grass, do not disturb the localities, do not plunder, and do not attack the prefectures and counties, they are very lucky, and they dare not take care of it. Even if he encounters someone who has to be managed, and no one under him obeys his orders, what can he do alone? No matter how ignorant he is, sooner or later he will take his life, which is also an idle matter. ”

Speaking of this, Sanniang paused, looked at Chen Jingdao, and said, "As for the local officials and soldiers, it's almost like this." Chen Congyi, I have been away from the cottage for a long time, how happened to the local officials and soldiers in Huazhou? ”

Chen Jingdao: "The Huazhou regimental training envoy was replaced three months ago, that is, the leader of our cottage Tanglong Tang, he was an officer in the Western Army, and he still has a set of rules for the army and horses, but he spent a lot of money on this position to get it." Hearing this, everyone laughed together.

After laughing, Chen Jing said again: "Now that Leader Tang has become a regimental training envoy, in the past few months, many of our brothers have been placed in the Huazhou military horses, and sooner or later the state military horses will change their names and surnames." ”

Everyone laughed together again, and Chai Jin muttered dementedly: "I only said that what I did was already lawless, but I never thought that there was a heaven outside the sky." ”

Gongsun Sheng twisted his beard and said: "It's really wonderful, unexpected, I didn't expect these strategies to come from the hands of Hu Guanren, it is really a genius." ”

Sanniang said with a smile: "Mr. praised falsely, Brother Deng Fei said that Shaohuashan acts like an official government, which is not bad, what we do is the affairs of the government." The government collects taxes to support the people, and we also collect cents of money to support the people, but we will not be like the government, where there are too many corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and if they do not do anything after collecting money, they may do something that harms the people. That's why I said that it was for the heavens, and I just wanted to do what the government couldn't do, didn't dare to do, and didn't want to do, and gave the people a bright future! I just want this to be a place where the thieves and grass are governed, and the instructor's mansion will stand aside, and finally I will have to rely on my snort to survive! Then I want the world to have no bandits and grass bandits, because everyone is under the rule of bandits and grass bandits! ”

After listening, Gongsun Sheng was the first to applaud, Chai Jin also praised it, and Pei Xuan sighed: "It's as clear as the clouds see the sun." Yang Lin and the others all bowed down and said: "I am willing to follow the Hu officials to do the right thing for heaven!" ”

Sanniang helped everyone up and said: "Everyone is invested in the cottage, I am naturally very happy, but you must remember that my cottage is not like other places, the rules are strict, and the law is strict, so that justice can be sought. Therefore, in my village, I only talk about justice and law, regardless of human feelings, but after you brothers join the gang, anyone who violates the rules and laws will be generally punished! ”

Everyone said, "That's exactly how it should be." Sanniang looked at Chai Jin again and said: "Chai Daguan, this is what he is doing here, can he still be willing to form an alliance with Shaohua Mountain, Shijiazhuang, and Peach Blossom Mountain?" ”

Chai Jin got up, his arms trembled slightly, and he arched his hand and said, "If I can run my Chai Jiazhuang like Shaohua Mountain, how can I not want to?" You are willing to participate in the alliance! ”

Sanniang smiled and helped Chai Jin to say: "When I arrived in the village when I was young, I made an alliance with blood, and after making an oath, I will send people and officials back to Chaijiazhuang to help, and I will generally run it, and it will be prosperous sooner or later." ”

In the end, Sanniang looked at Gongsun Sheng and said, "I don't know what Mr. means?" Gongsun Sheng said with a smile: "I don't know what kind of title the poor road in the village can do?" Sanniang also smiled: "Except for me, let Mr. choose." The two looked at each other and laughed.

Then everyone sat down again, and began to feast and drink again, guessing that the bucket was drinking. After eating for a long time, I saw a military horse outside the hall coming, and a person rushed in outside the gate, it was the nine-pattern dragon Shi Jin, I saw him rushing in, striding in, and shouting loudly: "Where is my senior brother?" ”
