Chapter 13: Literacy I

Speaking from the heart, Ma Da Nose asked Zhao Guanhou to come forward, and rushed to compensate for it, although there are factors such as Zhao Guanhou's recent fame and momentum, and another factor is that he is young and has no backer, which is easier to deal with. Neither has any big docks, nor is there a large enough force, and it will definitely not swallow the foundation of the big wine vat, and the price offered will not be too high.

According to Ma Da's nose, this kind of gangster is when he is young and vigorous, with a few kind words, or with righteous anger, maybe the other party is hot-headed for a while, and he will help him for nothing. Unexpectedly, Zhao Guanhou was surprisingly calm, eating things as they were, and saying good things as they were, but when it was time to ask for benefits, he was definitely not soft.

"I have to take risks when I come forward for this kind of thing, and if I don't do it, those vegetable farmers will even hold a grudge against me...... Of course, everyone's own brothers, even if they come out for their friends, what can they do? But the problem is, I still have Sister Hanzhi to take care of, so I have to leave something for her, right? ”

Ding Jianming also helped on the side: "Yes, those vegetable farmers in Xingezhuang, I heard that there are a few outlaws in them, and they are really going to die." Your big wine tank used to collect tolls, and the small shoe shop didn't follow the share, and now something has happened, and I don't think it's appropriate for the senior brother of Guanhou to come forward to be this guarantor. Besides, if Miss Hanzhi knew about this, she shouldn't be at ease, so it would be better to ignore it. ”

As soon as the two sang and agreed, Ma Da's nose was a little embarrassed, his face was red and white, and he finally patted his thigh, "Brother Guanhou, let me tell you the truth, brother, I really don't have a lot of money in my hand." It's all my fault...... Blame me for this hobby. ”

The people in the pot gang do not plow or weave, and they all rely on collecting the share of the shops in the territory, or monopolizing a part of the livelihood as income. For example, the main source of income for the small shoe shop is the Bone Cover Society, which is responsible for collecting the ownerless corpses, relying on membership fees to earn food and drink for the gangsters. There are several pots and taverns near the big wine tank, and some people are charged with money, and the income is far more than that of the small shoe shop. As the supreme leader of the pot guys, he still has a lot of money on hand, according to Zhao Guanhou's idea, how can he knock out more than ten taels of silver this time.

But Ma Da Nose is not very old, but he has a very old-fashioned style, such as visiting the cellar and smoking big cigarettes, which are time-honored good habits, and he has not left any of them behind. There are good friends in the hall, and there are a few half-closed doors outside, little widows, and some surplus money, all of which are sent to the smoke house to spit out clouds and smoke, and the money in their hands is not necessarily much more than that of Zhao Guanhou.

Hearing his economic situation, Zhao Guanhou was a little unhappy, "If this matter wants to be resolved, why do you have to set up a banquet a few times, not to mention the expenses of more than ten yuan Jinyang, you can't ask us to mediate our own advance, right?" Otherwise, Brother Ma will go to raise funds first, and when the funds are almost raised, let's do it? ”

Ma Da nose almost cried out, "Brother Guanhou, this matter can't wait, if the bride really lets someone else pass over, the shopkeeper Wang has to play with me." If I want to put it on weekdays, I'm not afraid of him, but now I'm at a loss, I have to walk around when I see him, even if he smacks me in person, I don't dare to say anything. I don't dare to delay this matter any longer, I think about this money matter myself, I can't let you take people and money, and I can't let my brother suffer in vain. It's just that in terms of numbers, I'm afraid it's not quite satisfactory. But if you believe me, let's see a long life, and we will make up for it in the future. ”

For ordinary people, this kind of thing is naturally the longer it is, the better, and it can't be a one-shot business. But for people like Ma Dabi, the meaning of being affectionate and making up for it is to unload the mill and kill the donkey.

Zhao Guanhou was not in a hurry, but just pointed to his two legs, "It's not that my brother doesn't help Brother Ma, it's really two legs, and I don't make a face." I didn't think it was at the time, but now it hurts, it's uncomfortable to even lie down, I'm afraid that if I want to contribute to Brother Ma, I can't do anything, so you should ask Gao Ming to be the best, so as not to delay the business. ”

If this is the case, he saw it a few times, and Ma Da had to grit his teeth and "Six pieces of Jinyang!" In the future, the share of the big wine vat will be divided into two percent, handed over to the small shoe shop, and collected for three consecutive years, do you think it will be successful? As long as my big nose doesn't die, this will count, and if I die, I will bet my daughter-in-law to you. ”

Zhao Guanhou is currently interested in the throne of the owner of the small shoe shop, if he can fight for the gangsters to get 20% of the income of the big wine tank, this is undoubtedly a great credit, and more importantly, the small shoe shop can go to the big wine tank to get a share, and the benefits in terms of face are more considerable than the economic benefits.

If it weren't for the end of the run, Ma Da Nose would not have opened such a condition. He nodded, "In that case, junior brother, I am also sacrificing my life to accompany the gentleman, Brother Ma will invite someone, and I will definitely be there when the time comes." Even if I can't walk, someone will carry me away. ”

Seeing that he agreed, Ma Da Nose hurriedly thanked him, said goodbye, and went to make an appointment with the two parties to meet at a fixed time. Ding Jianming couldn't help but admire Zhao Guanhou when he was negotiating, this junior brother, he used to think he was a little small, but he should be cautious in the future.

Su Hanzhi came a little late today, Taixi came over at ten o'clock in the early years, first compensated Ding Jianming, and then explained, "My father may have drunk too much last night, and he won't be able to live or die this morning, if he doesn't move, I won't be able to leave." Finally, when he went out, I went to Dr. Su to redeem the bracelet, but he said that he went to work. I don't know where St. Mary's Hospital is, I ran this big trip in vain, I'm sorry, delaying Brother Ding's return. ”

When Ding Jianming was sent away and the house was cleaned for Zhao Guanhou, she ran out again, bought a front elbow for Zhao Guanhou and came back, and began to pick it up. She is a skilled worker, and her hands and feet are nimble, but after such a busy time, her forehead, which is as smooth as porcelain, is also full of sweat. Zhao Guanhou was distressed and said, "Sister, don't be busy, sit here with me to rest." ”

"It's okay, sister is not tired. I'll stew your elbows in a moment, and I'll make you some bone broth in the evening. Su Hanzhi remembered his evil hand last night, and his face turned slightly red, "You have an injury on your leg, take care of the injury first, don't think about anything else." When you get better, my sister will listen to you. ”

When she said this, it was already equivalent to entrusting her for life, and her neck was red with shame, and Zhao Guanhou seemed to have a sweet spring flowing in her heart, "Sister, I see that you are too hot and too tired, let you take a break, sit down, let's talk, I don't do anything." Now in broad daylight, besides, the people in the pot guys don't know when they will come, and I don't dare to do anything. ”

"Phew, you don't want to learn." Su Hanzhi snorted, after all, he didn't sit down, but was busy making food there, and put the bloody clothes that Zhao Guanhou had changed out of yesterday into a wooden basin and washed them vigorously. Afraid that Zhao Guanhou would have nothing to do when he was idle, he was talking to him while working.

"The third brother's ten taels of silver, I didn't tell my father, and told him that he would definitely exchange it for a big cigarette. But my father was very interesting yesterday, I don't know which unlucky guy I met, I invited him to eat a good meal, it is said that the two of them ate eight big bowls, and they were not allowed to bring leftovers, saying that it was undignified. After finishing the work, I invited him to smoke a big cigarette and take a shower again, how much did I get this time. Dad also told me that he wouldn't worry about money in the future, and you said that he wouldn't meet some rich man. ”

"Who goes to Beidaguan as a rich man, if the master can have a good luck and hand over a broad master, it may not be a bad thing." Zhao Guanhou coped with it in his mouth, but he thought in his heart that this kind of thing was not necessarily a good thing, but thinking about it, the things in the world would not really be so coincidental, probably because he thought too much.

Compared with the era in which he lived, the technology of this era is backward, but the backward era also has the advantage of being backward, that is, the pace of life is slow enough. It's like in his previous life, people come and go in a hurry, and even killers have endless orders. In this life, you can talk to Su Hanzhi and enjoy this kind of purity, which is not a pleasant feeling.

Su Hanzhi is not very convenient to serve, but fortunately, with that pair of wooden crutches, Zhao Guanhou can move by himself. Su Chunhua's six yuan is not for nothing, this ointment is pasted on the wound, so people don't feel much pain, and they can barely move with the help of crutches in action, so that they don't really need help in everything.

Lunch was a millet porridge boiled with stewed elbows and Su Hanzhi's paste, she brought it over and fed Zhao Guanhou to eat, but she refused to eat it. Zhao Guanhou finally sank her face, she couldn't eat a few bites, so she said that she was not hungry at all, and she would vomit if she ate again, and she refused to eat a bite.

The gangsters in the pot guy, there were a few people who came to the door at this time, and when they saw this scene, they felt that they were a little redundant. But someone still brought a few watermelons from outside, and someone brought half a dog's leg, but they stole it from somewhere. Li Si always refused to show his head, putting on a posture of playing a dead dog, and refused to hand over power, but no one listened to him.

This kind of attitude is very despised by the gangsters, and the gangsters are more and more dissatisfied with him, and more and more people come to show goodwill, and a few people are still suggesting, so Zhao Guanhou will make trouble and take away his position as the owner of the village.

Zhao Guanhou smiled and excused himself, but did not say anything, but told the visitor about the big wine tank. I heard that he could get a share from the big wine vat, and a few gangsters respected him even more from the bottom of their hearts, even before Yuan Weiting ruled Jinmen, the small shoe shop pot guy had never had such a majesty. Several gangsters raised their big fingers again and again, praising the hero for being a young man, but no one was willing to come forward to help with the important people in Xingezhuang.

The station cage outside the county yamen not only killed more than 100 gangsters, but more importantly, beat down the spirit of a large number of gangsters, so that these people didn't dare to cause trouble. Zhao Guanhou's reaction to them was also expected, and he didn't think about what they would really do for him. He was not a general in his previous life, he was better at collecting intelligence and making plans, and what he had to do now was to learn about the situation in Xingezhuang from these people, as well as the grievances between the two sides.

The gangsters are all ghosts in the ground, and the news is very well-informed, and Zhao Guanhou asked about it, and got a lot of feedback. It's just that at this time, he also found a problem, he didn't have a pen and paper at home, and he couldn't remember it if he wanted to record it. When he asked Su Hanzhi, the latter looked at him with a surprised expression, "Guanhou, you don't know a hundred words in total, is it useful to buy paper and pencils, isn't it a bit of a waste?" ”
