Chapter 429: Waiting for the Rabbit
Wang Xu also said: "If there are no fortifications in Gui County, how about we go to a restaurant outside to eat together?" ”
Since Wang Xu said so, Zhang Qianyuan couldn't refuse anymore, and nodded immediately.
"Uh... Guixian, look at your official uniform, will it scare the people, how about our plainclothes? ”
Wang Xu said: "Just a few of us, we don't need to bring an entourage, and the honor guard is also exempted, so we can let loose and talk as much as we want." ”
Zhang Qianyuan frowned, he had never gone out in civilian clothes, this was really the first time, and he immediately hesitated.
However, Wang Xu said this, and he had no choice, so he immediately said: "Okay, Xiaoxian will go to change clothes, please envoy later." ”
...........
Half an hour later, the five of them came to a restaurant, which was a bit luxurious, and there were many guests, so everyone found a corner and sat down.
First drink tea, then order food and drink wine.
After three rounds of drinking, Wang Xu called the shopkeeper down.
looked at the owner of the restaurant and said, "Big brother, I'm from a foreign country and want to open a restaurant here, how about you introduce me here?" ”
Hearing this, the shopkeeper couldn't help but smile: "You came here to open a restaurant?" Hehe. ”
The boss said this, and did not say any more.
Wang Xu said: "Big brother, you won't be afraid that I will rob you of your business, right?" ”
"I said guest officer, business has always been easy to do, it is easy for everyone to do, I never have what you said, I advise you, or go to other counties to open it, otherwise you will regret it! You can't stay here. ”
Zhang Qianyuan on the side wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and glared at the hotel owner angrily, but the hotel owner kept driving Wang Xu and didn't notice him.
"Hey, that's weird, is there anything different here from other counties? Why can't you stay? ”
Wang Xu wondered.
The restaurant looked around and whispered, "I'll tell you the truth." I think we are all peers, and I can't bear to let you fall into the pit; Our county lord here, it's unacceptable. ”
Zhang Xue on the side looked at Zhang Qianyuan and said with a smile: "Hehe." Why not? ”
The owner of the restaurant said: "Our county master here, in fact, was a hooligan in this county, gathered dozens of people to fight and kill, collected some money, and then bought an official; I heard that he later befriended Lord Tobe Shangshuwen. It's even more lawless, and since he took office, he only knows two things, robbing and killing! ”
Wen Mengliang also smiled on the side: "Ouch, this county order is really powerful." ”
The restaurant owner hadn't finished speaking, he continued: "There is a fixed amount of taxes in this country, and each person only pays one tael of silver in personal tax a year, but this Zhang Qianyuan actually charges five taels, and there are a lot of miscellaneous taxes, so he is ruthless." ”
"It's just my little shop. I have to pay a lot of protection fees every year, and if I slow down a little, I will be caught and hung up by the county government. ”
"This business is so difficult to do, if you come here, aren't you killing yourself?"
After speaking, the restaurant owner sighed.
Wang Xu smiled slightly and looked at Zhang Qianyuan, who was sweating profusely: "This is strange, why do you say that these people can't save the lawsuit?" ”
Hearing this, the restaurant owner on the side said again: "Who doesn't want to sue, the local people can't wait to eat its meat." Drink its blood, but he has money, as long as he feeds the officials above. How can there be officials who care about such things? ”
Zhang Meng was most unaccustomed to this kind of thing, after he heard it, Yabang was in a hurry, staring at Zhang Qianyuan and wanting to punch him immediately, but when he saw Wang Xu shaking his head, he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart.
Then. The restaurant owner had already left, Wang Xu looked at Zhang Qianyuan and said, "Don't say it, don't say it, come, let's eat." ”
Where is Zhang Qianyuan still in the mood to eat now, he is already gone.
"Lord Envoy, I'm a little unwell, you use it slowly, I'll go back to the house first."
As he spoke, Zhang Qianyuan got up and left quickly, he walked with heavy steps, as if he had aged several years all of a sudden.
When Zhang Qianyuan left, Wang Xu gave Zhang Meng a token and said, "Go find the garrison here and arrest Zhang Qianyuan in this restaurant tonight." ”
"No."
Zhang Meng left.
Zhang Xue said: "Husband, why do you have so many tokens?" What is the token for? ”
Wang Xu said with a smile: "I have a lot of tokens on me, the token just now belongs to the Ministry of War, and the local county soldiers can be mobilized, and this county commander will definitely come here tonight to seek revenge against this boss, and we will deal with him when the time comes." ”
"Yes, yes." Zhang Xue said happily. He is in the same mood as Zhang Meng, and the most unsightly thing is corrupt officials and corrupt officials.
These people are so hateful that they should be killed.
........
After eating, Wang Xu went to the county government and gave Zhang Qianyuan a tooth shape, saying that he was going back to the imperial capital, and promised that he should not see what happened during the day today.
In this way, Zhang Qianyuan was immediately overjoyed, and immediately sent someone to make a guard of honor and send Wang Xu and others out of Qingyang City.
Zhang Meng stayed in Qingyang County, he took the token given to him by Wang Xu, mobilized a hundred local garrisons, and ambushed them all at the door of the restaurant, just waiting for the arrival of Zhang Qianyuan, and then Zhang Qianyuan could be captured.
After Wang Xu got dark at night, He Zhang Xue and Wen Mengliang touched it back, and the three of them went to the restaurant where they ate during the day.
knocked on the door and entered, and the restaurant owner saw that it was Wang Xu, and immediately greeted him with a smile: "Does the guest officer want to stay in the hotel, or?" ”
Wang Xu said: "Neither. ”
"Big brother, you're going to be unlucky today, do you know who the guy I drank with today is?"
The restaurant owner shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
Zhang Xue couldn't help laughing: "Hehe, he is Zhang Qianyuan, the county magistrate of Qingyang County, you scolded him like this, it seems that you are going to be miserable." ”
Yes...
Hearing this, the restaurant owner wailed: "Guest officer, we have no grievances, why do you want to harm me." ”
Wang Xu said: "Don't worry, I'm here, I'll make sure you're okay." ”
At this time, Zhang Meng walked in: "Big brother, everything is arranged." ”
"Well, let's sit down and wait."
Wang Xu looked at the restaurant owner: "Big brother, bring us a pot of good Longjing, and when the county order comes, we will help you fight." ”
"Guest officer, you really don't know the height of the sky, let's run away, if you are caught, there is no stove."
"I'm running away too."
After speaking, the owner of the restaurant was about to run outside, it seemed that he was afraid that Zhang Qianyuan was extremely afraid, so Zhang Meng grabbed him: "What are you running, we are here, clean up the county order piece of cake." ”
"Hurry up and make us tea." (To be continued.) )
