After sending away the county master, Chang Zhenbang took Zhang Youhua and Zhang Youneng's two cousins to the small courtyard where the oil tank was stored, and the surrounding people had already been taken by Zhang Youhua first, opened a marked oil can, pulled out the scalded guy inside, threw it aside, and looked at it carefully.

The man already retained the expression of pain and hideousness when he was burned to death, but his body was particularly strong, with heavy calluses on his hands, which were tightly clung to Hanyangzao, who had sawed off the handle of his gun, and leggings on his legs. Chang Zhenbang frowned. After thinking for a moment, he leaned over and tore off this person's clothes, only to see that his left shoulder was bulging, obviously a person with Western military training, this kind of talent is not something that those bandits and bandits can deal with.

"Cousin, this ......"

Zhang Youneng is smart and his head turns quickly, but after all, he only lives on the ground in this small Wenxian County, and he doesn't know much, so he naturally can't see anything famous, but seeing his cousin so sad, he seems to be aware of a trace of bad breath.

"It's okay, that county master is a bandit in Heifeng Village, these guys hiding in the oil tank want to sneak attack my Chang family, it's really innocent! Brother Youneng, please clean up these oil cans in a while, put away the guns and ammunition and everything, and as for those pups, find a few trustworthy people and go to a remote place to bury them! ”

Zhang Youneng smiled and said, "No problem, cousin, just take a look!" Let's kill so many bandits, you can also reward me with a gun to play with. ”

Chang Zhenbang lowered his face and said, "Is this gun so fun?" ”

Zhang Youneng said: "My good cousin, didn't you also give my brother a Hanyang a few days ago?" My brother can have it, you can also give me a Hanyang made! ”

Chang Zhenbang said: "Hanyang made that thing is suitable for your brother and not for you, when you have a good short gun, I will pay attention to it for you!" ”

Zhang Youneng thought about it, and felt that what his cousin said made some sense, these days Chang Zhenbang sent things, rough work security is always the eldest brother Zhang Youhua's, and those shrewd things are always arranged by themselves, thinking about themselves, so it seems that the cousin is still towards himself, and he really treats himself as a character, unlike his brother who is just a coolie! Besides, if you have a suitable gun, how can you not give it to your brother, obviously those long guns are not suitable, if you have a short gun, can your cousin not give it to you? Thinking of this, his heart was as happy as soaking in honey water, and he went down to beckon for helpers very happily.

Chang Zhenbang looked at his brisk back, and couldn't help but shake his head, this cousin is shrewd, if he is too shrewd, it is really not a good thing. I have to beat him more in the future.

This matter was hidden from the housekeeper Chang Si, and the old lady naturally didn't know.

After finishing these trivial tasks, Chang Zhenbang felt a little tired and wanted to go to the study to rest, but the housekeeper Chang Si chased after him from behind and said: "There is a young merchant outside the door, with the goods of more than a dozen horses, and wants to spend the night. ”

Chang Zhenbang glanced at the sky, and the ambiguity of the sunset at dusk that could not be explained, and if he looked at it more, he would feel more sleepy, and it seemed that it was really energy-consuming to usher in the send-off.

"Young master, do you think we should stay or not?"

The housekeeper Chang Si also saw Chang Zhenbang's sleepiness, but this stay is not small, it is not big, if it is a villager and neighbor, he can call the shots, but this strange business accommodation is a big deal, if there are bad people mixed in, a little carelessness will lead to a monstrous disaster.

"How did the old man deal with it before?"

Chang Zhenbang yawned and said lightly. The housekeeper often said: "The master is kind-hearted, not only will he invite the merchants to come in to rest, but he will also drink and talk with the leaders of the merchants." ”

"Fourth uncle, let's draw a scoop according to the gourd! Just ask Zhang Youhua to pay more attention. Chang Zhenbang pushed open the study and was about to fall on the chair. The whole person was spread out on the table, and his eyes were open, staring at the crack in the study door. Thinking about what happened today.

No matter how you think about things, there is always a little bit of something wrong, but he can't say what's wrong with this place. Since he couldn't think of a way, he simply didn't want to, he slowly closed his eyes, and sleepiness soon hit like a tide.

At this moment, when he seemed to be asleep, there was a loud noise outside the door of the study for some reason, which made Chang Zhenbang, who was in a daze, very disappointed. He endured the sleepiness, opened his eyes, poured a pot of cold tea in his hand, rubbed it on his face, finally recovered a little bit of energy, then got up, came to a shovel open the door, and said, "What's so noisy!" ”

"Bastard, I told you not to make trouble, don't make trouble, you can wake up your cousin!"

Zhang Youhua's honest voice came.

"Brother, I didn't say you, why don't you have any eyesight? Can I argue here if there's no urgency? Don't I have something strange to report to my cousin! ”

This is Zhang Youneng's voice, and then Chang Zhenbang only felt that a figure rushed to his side, and someone whispered to his ear: "The overnight merchant also brought a lot of big jars of vegetable oil, and the younger brother wondered if the vegetable oil in Wenxian County was going to increase the money, otherwise the county master would not have personally made so much vegetable oil!" What's more, although the merchant is dressed as a young man, he is a woman! This shows how much oil and water there is in it! Cousin, I'll see if we can get some vegetable oil to sell. ”

"That's it?"

Chang Zhenbang shook his head with a wry smile, and said in his heart that Lao Tzu is going to be an official, how can there be more money and profit in this world than being an official? However, it was not good to dampen my cousin's enthusiasm, so I just said a few perfunctory words, postponed it to tomorrow, and went back to the house to sleep.

"What is important to me, that's all? Nengzi, you really lost your money, our cousin did the Black Wind Village......"

Zhang Youhua still wanted to continue, but was glared at by Zhang Youneng, and sighed in his heart, only to remember that his cousin forgot about Heifeng Village, who said that he wanted his head, and forgot how he said this, and hurriedly glanced at the house, the lights had been turned off inside, calm and silent, presumably his cousin was asleep, so he breathed a sigh of relief and left side by side with Zhang Youneng, but he didn't say much on the way.

Chang Zhenbang stayed in the dark room, like a clay statue of King Kong, sitting upright on a chair, his two eyes blinking against the difficulty, although he didn't pay attention to other words, but he heard the words of Heifeng Village clearly. He knows that it is easy to block everyone's mouths, but the most difficult thing to block is those words that have no intention, a little bit of being known by people with intentions, the consequences will not be good-looking, China has changed for 5,000 years, the emperor has become a republic, and the troubled times are coming, he must be careful and careful no matter what, if he wants to show his chest and take revenge, he must not make a mistake.

Especially now, he killed thirty or forty soldiers in the county lord's oil tank, once this thing goes wrong, the consequences will be real......

Thinking of this, a cold sweat came out, and the sleepiness subsided slightly, Chang Zhenbang jumped off the bed, put on his clothes, and pushed the door out.
