Chapter 120: Ill-intentioned
Seeing that the captains were soft, Qin Lin couldn't stop laughing in his stomach, he had colluded with Chen Sihai when he was in Qizhou, and gave the newly arrived Luan Junjie a dismissal, but he didn't expect the veteran of the Nanjing Gengzi Institute to also play this hand - I don't know if this set of flower work was played by Qin Ye? It's really a big knife in front of the gate!
No matter what they thought in their hearts, these Jinyi lieutenants were at least obedient to Qin Lin on the face, and they swarmed him into a hundred households.
Some people went to serve tea and pour water, and some people hurriedly cleaned up the gambling equipment and wine jars scattered everywhere, among which an old lieutenant with a somewhat lame leg was the most diligent, and he beat the dust on the public seat with his sleeve and got into people's noses, causing Qin Lin to sneeze three times in a row.
The courtyard of the 100 households is extremely narrow, even if it is 30 people standing there will be too crowded, the lobby is only a little bigger than the main house of ordinary people, and the small courtyard for the accommodation of 100 adults is only three houses and a firewood shed.
It matched the door panel that had fallen to the ground with paint almost gone, and the courtyard was also a scene of withering and dilapidation, with cobwebs on the rafters of the roof, weeds as high as feet high on the walls, and thick moss at the corners.
Although the lieutenants hurriedly packed up the gambling equipment and wine jar, they forgot that there was a stove stewed with dog meat under the gable wall of the public hall, and a dog leg stretched out from the casserole, fennel, star anise, and cinnamon with the fragrance of dog meat, which provoked Lu Fatzi to swallow two mouthfuls of saliva and look at it with blank eyes.
Qin Lin glared fiercely, and the fat man reluctantly withdrew his gaze.
Perhaps it was because of the whole box of gold and silver and the amazing speed of promotion resume, after Qin Lin was promoted to the public seat, Lu Erling was extremely obedient, and honestly handed over the soldiers' albums, salary books and other account books, and the big seal of the hundred households that he was in charge of after the previous hundred households left, was also presented with both hands.
Qin Lin was playing with the official seals of the hundred households, and this was the first time he had mastered the seal handle.
The official seal of 100 households is cast in copper, and the Yangwen stacked seal book body is printed with the text "Jinyi Wei Nanjing Thousand Households Gengzi Hundred Household Seal", and the inscription is engraved on the back "made by the Ministry of Rites, June of the 30th year of Hongwu, Jinzi No. 57", the square printing surface is two inches and two minutes long, and the height of the seal is two inches and eight minutes, which may often be played by its successive masters, although it has gone through more than 100 years of changes, it is still yellow and shiny.
Qin Lin put the seal into the seal box and began to interrogate the specific situation of the hundred households, why is the house so narrow, what was the trouble just now, could it be that there was a conflict with the brother of the C-word office?
Lu Erling has to answer all questions, but he is detailed.
It turns out that every inch of land in this Nanjing city is gold, and the Qinhuai River is the area with the highest land price in the entire Ming Dynasty, and the hundred households have been handed down from Hongwu Nian to such a large place, and they can't afford to buy a place if they want to expand - change it to another place, and the captain of Jinyi has his own means to drive people away, but this Nanjing city can throw a brick at will to smash a prince, two grandfathers, three or four scholars, seven or eight generals, and the neighbors of the hundred households are either rich or expensive, do you dare to mess around?
Therefore, recently, several hundreds of households are working in their own homes, such as the one who just left office, he lives outside the Jubao Gate, opposite the Dabao'en Temple, where the land is cheap, and the yard at his home is also large.
As for the misunderstanding just now, Lu Erling pretended to be sincere and frightened, and said in detail:
Gengzi is under the jurisdiction of the Qinhuai River, and the Chongzi is under the jurisdiction of the Gongyuan, Confucius Temple, Zhongshan Wangfu, Jiangning County Ya, the jurisdiction of the two sides overlaps in some places, and the people of the C-word office are hot on the side of the Gengzi with rich oil and water, and the hand is stretched too long, and the two sides often quarrel over who should accept the routine in a certain Qinglou, and even fight.
In the last group fight, the C-word institute won a big victory, and there was an old lieutenant surnamed Zhou who was seriously injured on the side of the Gengzi institute, and now he was still lying on the bed and couldn't get up, so Qin Lin and the others suddenly smashed the door open, and the captains thought that it was the C-word institute that came to the door, and they all got up and prepared to fight.
"Hey, it's no wonder that the little ones have eyes that don't know Mount Tai," Lu Erling slapped his ears in the face and made a red mark: "If the little ones know that you are coming, how dare you be rude?" ”
Qin Lin's heart is like a mirror, other people may misunderstand, this Lu Erling is definitely ill-intentioned, but now he himself has crackled the ear scraper, after all, he is an old brother, seeing him behave like this, all the lieutenants in the hall have a little sympathy, but it is inconvenient for him to punish him for this matter, otherwise he will be separated from the captains.
So he smirked and pressed Lu Erling's hand down, and said sharply: "What do you mean by Brother Lu?" You are an old qualification, and there are still many things to ask for advice from this official, why are you so contemptuous? Brother Deer, just rest assured, we won't know each other if we don't fight! ”
Sure enough, as soon as Qin Lin's words fell, the captains standing under the hall breathed a sigh of relief, if Qin Lin didn't forgive Lu Erling and had to deal with Lu Erling, although they didn't dare to fight again, at least they would have to disperse in a hurry.
Qin Lin's face was solemn again: "All the brothers have been informed, tomorrow morning, the captains, wrestlers, and military surpluses of this institute will all come here for the roll call, and the official has something to say." If you don't come by then, don't blame the official for being polite! ”
Lu Erling deliberately frowned, and arched his hand and said, "Look, Chief Qin, our small place ...... Even the rest of the army is combined, and there are nearly two hundred brothers. ”
"Standing on the street for the time being, in the future, the official will find a way to find a larger place in this neighborhood."
Lu Erling didn't say anything more, but she sneered in her heart: Ask the brothers to stand on the street and take a roll call, afraid that you, a hundred households, will not be embarrassed enough? Find a place, hum, next door to us is Wuyi Lane "Lai Yan Mingtang", east is the East Garden of the Wei Mansion, northwest is the Qinhuai River, on the other side of the river is the Tribute Courtyard, Confucius Temple, I see where you go to find a place!
He led all the lieutenants to sing a big song and left one after another.
Qin Lin then led Lu Yuanzhi and the others to move their luggage to the back of the lobby, there were only three small houses, Qin Lin lived in the main room, Lu Yuanzhi and Han Feilian shared the west wing, Niu Dali snored at night and lived alone in the east wing.
The room was dusty and cobwebs, and it took a dizzy afternoon of cleaning to barely accommodate people, but the rotten beams and broken tiles reminded people that this was not a comfortable place.
It wasn't until it was dark that someone suddenly jumped down from the low wall on the other side of the firewood house.
"There are assassins!" The ox vigorously lifted the wooden pole with the thickness of the mouth of the bowl and was about to beat.
"Don't fight, it's the little brother!" The dark shadow stood up, limping a little.
Qin Lin recognized that this was the old lieutenant who used his sleeve to wipe his seat for him during the day, as if he was called a wandering kidnapper, so he called Niu Dali and the others.
You crutches first picked up the wall to see that there was no one outside, and then walked in front of Qin Lin with a flattering smile: "The little one and Mao Donggua are brothers, and they unintentionally offended the chief's tiger power just now, and when they met Brother Mao on the way back, they knew that Chief Qin was a righteous young hero, so the little one had a few words that were not unhappy, and he was willing to tell him." ”
Qin Lin had almost guessed the reason, and said with a smile: "This is not the place to talk, it's time for dinner, let's find a place to drink and chat." ”
You Guizi nodded, and said with some embarrassment: "Damn it, I'm afraid that someone will be watching at the main gate, and I will ask the chief to go out from this wall." ”
Licentious! Niu vigorously glared at the big eyes of the copper bell.
"It's okay, just go from here, so as not to be seen by anyone, Brother You's family is in Nanjing, so naturally you have to be careful," Qin Lin climbed out of the wall without hesitation.
He learned from Mao Donggua that Qin Lin was generous, and it seemed that he had a good relationship with Lord Lei Gongteng of Qianhu, and he was willing to gamble after witnessing Qin Lin's wrist to suppress the captains.
Qin Lin clearly knew that he didn't have the spirit of a king, he could make people bow down as soon as the tiger's body was shocked, and the abductor was nothing more than speculation, and he was still a cut behind the boss with his sincerity. But if you want to gain a firm foothold as soon as possible, it will be extremely helpful for you to find half-hearted and timid guys like Mao Donggua and You Kidnapper in a short period of time.
Leaving Han Feilian to look after the house in the hundred households, everyone climbed over the wall one after another, only Lu Fatzi took a little effort, and it was Niu who pushed his ass vigorously to turn over.
You Guizi is very familiar with the streets and alleys of Nanjing, and takes everyone around the alleys, and after a while, he comes to a restaurant with few customers, and picks up a private room on the second floor and sits down.
Xiao Er recognized You's abductor and asked him with a smile: "Sir You, is it to serve siu mai, porridge, fish noodles, or to serve the toilet dish first?" ”
The commode dish is a cold dish that has been cut, such as braised chicken feet, sauced pig's trotters, roast beef, etc., which are cheap dishes.
The crutch's face turned red.
Qin Lin knew that this guy's economic situation was not very good, maybe this was one of the reasons why he chose to gamble, after all, the gold and silver displayed by Qin Lin far exceeded that owned by ordinary brocade households, and he was extremely generous.
"Don't bring the toilet plate, just serve any good wine and food!" Qin Lin was a tyrant.
Xiao Er was stunned for a moment, sneering and refusing to leave, his eyes rolling back and forth on Qin Lin and You Kidnapper.
Niu Dali was about to get angry, but Qin Lin guessed a little bit from the embarrassed expression of the abductor, and took out ten taels of silver from his arms and put it on the table: "What's the matter?" Afraid that the official has no money? ”
The shopkeeper immediately nodded and left, and after a while, the dishes of braised elbow, salted duck, drunken white fish, and lion's head were served like water, and the excellent osmanthus wine was also delivered.
After three rounds of food and wine, seeing that the atmosphere was almost there, You Kidnapper closed the door of the box and said to Qin Lin mysteriously: "Lu Erling, this guy is not a thing, and when Chief Qin arrives, he won't tell you the rules of the new official's appointment, he's fucking ill-intentioned!" I want to make you ugly! ”
