Chapter 017: The Attitude of the Four Families

Three days after Zhang Bao finished handling the affairs of the Xue family, Li San came to report: Sun He, the head of the Sun family, and the Zhang family advocated bringing people to visit him. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Hearing this, Zhang Bao muttered, "The Sun family and the Zhang family." The Sun family is a utensil, and the Zhang family is a medicinal material. Okay, let them wait in the lobby, and I'll be here. ”

Li San turned around and left after receiving the order. Zhang Bao thought for a moment and went to the lobby alone. After Zhang Bao came to the lobby, Li San had already led ten people to serve on both sides.

"This is Lord Donglai Taishou Zhang." Li San introduced Sun and Zhang to the two heads of the family after Zhang Bao's arrival.

Sun He and Zhang Fang hurriedly got up and hugged their fists and said, "The grass people have seen Lord Taishou. Lord Taishou is really a talent, and he is in a high position at a young age, and the grass people are deeply respected! ”

Zhang Bao smiled when she heard this: "The two heads of the family are too polite. I wonder what the two heads of the family mean by this? ”

When the two of them heard this, they were in their hearts, and Sun He hurriedly bowed down and hugged his fists and said with a smile: "Lord Taishou, the grass people didn't know the methods of Lord Taishou before, and they neglected Lord Taishou, this time the grass people and the head of the Zhang family came to make amends to Lord Taishou, hoping that Lord Taishou can forgive the grass people's great disrespect!" This is a little bit of the heart of the grass people and the head of the Zhang family, and I hope that Lord Taishou will laugh and accept it. ”

Zhang Bao didn't even look at the gift presented by Sun He, but just motioned for Li San to put it away. Zhang Bao waited for Li San to accept the gift and said with a smile: "The two family heads are really polite!" Come and come, and what kind of gifts. I, Zhang Bao, only care about your sincerity, and I don't care about foreign objects at all. As long as the two heads of the family sincerely obey the orders of the official from now on, the official will definitely not be embarrassed for the two heads of the family. ”

Zhang Fang saw that Zhang Bao didn't even look at his gift, and after Zhang Bao finished speaking, Zhang Fang hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Lord Taishou is really a good official for the people." But the heart of fifty gold for each of me and the head of the Sun family, Lord Taishou must accept it, otherwise we will not be at ease in our hearts. Lord Taishou, please rest assured, my Zhang family and Sun family will definitely obey Lord Taishou's orders in the future. ”

Of course, Zhang Bao heard Zhang Fang's careful thoughts, but he still smiled and said: "The two heads of the family are still sensible, unlike some people, who dare to openly disobey the laws of the imperial court, which is really bold and unforgivable!" ”

"Hehehe...... what Lord Taishou said is very true! The grass people really know what they have done wrong before. Moreover, in the past, our Zhang family and Sun family were also forced to act like that because of the Xue family's obscenity, otherwise it would be difficult for us to survive here. Zhang Fang said helplessly.

Zhang Bao nodded when she heard this: "I know the hardships of the two family heads. Please rest assured, from now on, as long as I, Zhang Bao, am still the Taishou of Donglai, as long as Donglai County is still under the rule of my Zhang Bao, as long as the two family heads do not openly disobey my Zhang Bao's orders, I Zhang Bao will definitely keep the two of you safe. Otherwise, I'm very vindictive! ”

"That's that!" Zhang Fang and Sun He hurriedly nodded and hugged their fists to greet each other.

Zhang Bao saw that the two were very cooperative, and knew that as long as he did not fall into the situation in the future, and then gave the two families some benefits, the two families would definitely not betray him again, and said at the moment: "The two family heads have worked hard." If it's okay, you can go back. By the way, in the future, as long as you operate properly, you can go to any county in Donglai County. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Fang and Sun He hurriedly clenched their fists and said, "Thank you, Lord Taishou, for your promise!" In the future, the grass people will abide by the law and serve Donglai County well. ”

Zhang Bao smiled and nodded when he heard this, and motioned for Li San to send off the guests.

After Li San sent the two back, Zhang Bao said to Li San: "Li San, have the brothers below complained recently?" ”

Li San smiled slightly when he heard this: "No, everyone is glad to be able to follow the young master." ”

Zhang Bao shook his head slightly when he heard this: "Li San, I treat you as a confidant, if you don't tell the truth, once the brothers complain about me in the future, it will be too late." ”

Hearing this, Li San hurriedly knelt down and said, "Master, the brothers are really glad to be able to follow the master. Everyone cherishes the affection with the host. It's just that everyone hopes that the owner can pay some military salaries appropriately, so that everyone can also buy sundries for their families. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Bao nodded and said, "Do the brothers have any other requirements?" ”

Li San swore when he heard this: "Master, my subordinates swear with their lives: it's really gone." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Bao looked at Li San with a smile and nodded, stepped forward to help Li San and said, "What kind of oath do you take, I just hope you can tell me the truth." After all, you are the old man of the Zhang family, how can I not believe you. In this way, you exchange the hundred gold for copper coins, and I will give you another two thousand dollars, and you can send two hundred dollars to each of the brothers, so that everyone can buy some clothes for their families. ”

Hearing this, Li San's eyes lit up and he clenched his fists and said, "It's the master, I thank the master on behalf of the brothers." ”

"Thank you, my lord!" The ten guards around him also knelt down with Li San.

Seeing this, Zhang Bao shook his head slightly and said, "Brothers, please hurry up!" Everyone follows me Zhang Bao from birth to death, and if you have any needs, just mention it. There's a lot of things I can't think of everything. If there is anything I can't do in the future, I hope that my brothers can bring it up in time. ”

"Obey the Lord!" Everyone replied loudly and gratefully.

Zhang Bao took out 2,000 yuan and handed it to Li San and turned to leave. There was a happy cheer behind him.

"Haha Third Brother Li, two hundred dollars is enough to marry a daughter-in-law!" One of the guards shouted happily.

……

Zhang Bao shook his head with a smile when he heard this: "Yes! I don't need a daughter-in-law when I'm young, but my brothers do. It seems that it is better to pay some military salaries to the brothers at intervals in the future. ”

After Zhang Bao returned to his residence, he began to think about how to deal with the Han and Qi families: these two Han families ran the salt industry, and the Qi family ran horses, how to deal with them?

Perhaps both think they can't live without them and will take the initiative to show them overtures. Think beautifully! Do you even dare to openly disobey my orders, and expect my lord to show favor to you? Zhang Bao sneered.

After Zhang Bao finished speaking, he remembered that the twelve county orders were still in prison at this time, so he decided to go to the prison to see them. See if there's anything available.

Just when Zhang Bao was thinking about how to deal with the Han and Qi families, the heads of the Han and Qi families were also gathering in the secret room of the Qi Mansion at this time to discuss how to deal with Zhang Bao.

Han Family Master: "Brother Qi: I heard that the little Taishou actually killed the Xue family master with his own hands two days ago, which shows that this little Taishou is by no means a good type. And today it is said that the Zhang and Sun families also brought gifts to make amends to the little Taishou, what do you say our two families should do? ”

Hearing this, the head of the Qi family sneered: "What's the matter, Brother Han? Are you scared? Don't forget, you and I intercepted the granaries of the Xue family in five counties, including Ye and Qu. It can be said that I have offended that little baby to death, and now it's too late to regret it. What use are you afraid of? Why don't we organize people to destroy that little baby? ”

"This ......" The head of the Han family hesitated when he heard this: "Brother Qi, haven't you heard?" There are two fierce generals under the command of that little baby, and he was able to kill the Xue family, which can be said to be all the credit of those two fierce generals! We must not underestimate him! And now that they have the power of the Xue family's guard, I'm afraid it's not so easy for us to win? ”

"Humph!"

Hearing this, the head of the Qi family first sneered twice and then said, "Fierce general? Brother Han, are the rumors so credible? And how fierce do you think a person can be? Can one person beat a thousand people? As long as we are well prepared, no matter how fierce the general is, I have to crawl! ”

Hearing this, the head of the Han family nodded and said, "What Brother Qi said is reasonable, I don't know what Brother Qi has planned?" ”

Hearing this, the head of the Qi family whispered, "We can ...... like this"

After the head of the Han family finished speaking, he glared and said, "Brother Qi, since then, we really can't turn back!" ”

The head of the Qi family looked at the shocked expression of the head of the Han family and said, "Turn back? Don't you look at what time it is? Which of those state pastors and assassins is not self-respecting? There are also a few who put the Han royal family in their eyes. If not, how can Donglai County be our turn to dominate? ”

Hearing this, the head of the Han family slapped the table fiercely and said, "What Brother Qi said is extremely true! Then let's do it! But what happens when it's done? ”

When the head of the Qi family heard this, he said: "After the matter is completed, the twelve counties of Donglai County, you and I will each have half of them. Let's help each other and defend against foreign enemies. ”

"Good! That's it! The matter is urgent, so I won't stay long for my brother, so I'll go back immediately to prepare, and Brother Qi take care. The head of the Han family stood up and hugged his fists.

After the head of the Qi family returned the salute, the head of the Han family turned around and left.
