Chapter 57: Some Honey

If you want to be busy, there's no time to get things done. Wu Laoer, who had not touched the ground for several days, deeply understood this sentence, and after a few days, he was tired and had a sore back and leg pain in the middle of the night, and he finally got a rough idea of everything. Even now, I still remember the expressions of the three of them when they discussed with Qian Ningwang and Liu Qingshan and Tang Qing a few days ago to mortgage the ill-gotten gains looted from Li Dongyi to the Four Seas Gang for 10,000 gold coins. If it weren't for Wu Laoer's strong deterrent power to the three of them, presumably the three of them would have been able to scold out.

Qian Ningwang proposed that the Four Seas Gang buy it with 10,000 gold coins, but Wu Lao Er disagreed, saying that it was okay to buy it, but at least 20,000 gold coins. At that time, they were almost mad at the famous 'money strings'. asked Wu Lao Er when someone would come to pick up the goods, but Wu Lao Er said that he had not found the buyer yet, so he would put it here first.

In order to end these things as soon as possible, Qian Xingwang knocked out his teeth and swallowed blood, and finally asked for all the goods in the last ten thousand gold coins. First send 10,000 gold coins to Zhou Ji and others, and as for the 5,000 that Wu Lao Er was greedy for in the middle, he paid the debt to the Four Seas Gang.

In the end, Wu Lao Er also said, in fact, the Four Seas Gang is not at a loss, how can this batch of goods be sold for 20,000 gold coins, but the shipment is a little slower. Qian couldn't think about it, so he had to ask for a lower price of medicinal materials used as medicinal food for the Four Seas Restaurant. Wu Lao Er thought about it and agreed on behalf of the palace, provided that the dividends to the palace must be prepared within ten days.

By the time this bargaining meeting finally came to an end, it was almost dark. The three leaders of the Four Seas Gang didn't have a good face for Wu Lao Er, and they didn't even offer dinner. Wu Lao Er had to be hungry helplessly, muttering that the three of them were stingy, but left satisfied.

Wu Lao Er was still a little embarrassed about that incident, after all, the Four Seas Gang helped him a lot, and he could pit them again and again. That is, his identity and status are different, otherwise Wu Lao Er is sure that he will not be able to walk out of the helm of the Four Seas Gang intact. It seems that if there is any good thing in the future, you have to think about the Four Seas Gang, for example, after your own liquor is brewed, you can give the Four Seas Gang a batch of special supplies. Of course, now that these are all fake, his liquor has not yet been seen, and all the people he knows are not very optimistic about himself, Wu Lao Er thinks that he must surprise them!

Putting away the double knives, Wu Lao Er nodded with satisfaction, don't look at himself now, he doesn't know any knife skills now, but he already has a good way to dance.

But look at that pair of scimitars, like a dragon going out to sea and dancing in the air, a double tiger going down the mountain to break the wind, majestic like a thousand horses galloping, or rolling waves crashing on the shore. In a flash, it looks like a lone wolf and a cunning fox, and the sound of breaking the air is like a dragon roaring and a tiger roaring. The world has never seen such a sharp knife technique, and Mr. Wu named it and said: Breaking Blade!

In fact, it means that it sounds good, and it is true that it is fierce and fierce, but it is not necessarily how powerful it really is, after all, it is impossible for the enemy to let you slash with two knives without fighting back, therefore, how powerful this set of blade-breaking knife techniques is has not yet been determined.

Today is December 19, and Wu Lao Er sent all his subordinates home for the New Year, leaving only the three housekeepers in the house. It's about to be the day of Jinyiwei's big gathering, he doesn't dare to leave too many people at home, in case the news is leaked, the mission failure is a trivial matter, and it will not be good if he gives his own life. The three housekeepers are all lonely old people, and they were also selected by Wu Lao Er personally in the countryside, and their trust is still relatively reliable. And such a large mansion also needs someone to clean it, and someone has to cook the meals, and there must be two busy people to come, so Wu Lao Er left three housekeepers.

At noon, Wu Lao Er ushered in the first wave of guests, Hai Dafu. Hai Dafu only brought two subordinates, presumably there are very few people who can be trusted by this newly released eunuch, otherwise with his status as a deacon, there will not be so few people who can use his subordinates.

"Master, your old man is here?" Wu Lao Er happily stepped forward to greet him.

Hai Dafu looked at Wu Laoer's mansion, shook his head and said: "It's too flamboyant Xiao Guizi, you have only been out of the palace for half a year, and you are actually looting like this, this is to be envied!" ”

Wu Lao Er said indifferently: "This is not a loot, it was given to the disciple by a friend for free." I wanted to give money, but he said he didn't want anything. ”

Hai Dafu nodded Wu Laoer's head, "The Li family is next to the children's house, don't think that everyone is a fool." Is the Li family so easy to mess with? They don't want to deal with you right now, but they won't forget about it, and they may get you in trouble sometimes. The people of the Li family do things like this, as long as you provoke them, don't care about the direct collateral, as long as someone is handy, revenge is indispensable. But it's only revenge once, as long as you don't take the initiative to fall into their hands in the future, they won't do anything, and the Li family is reasonable to do this kind of thing. ”

Wu Lao Er laughed and said, "Reasonable? After all, it was Guo Yi who killed Li Dongyi to eliminate harm for the people, and I killed Guo Yi to avenge Li Dongyi. ”

Hai Dafu shook his head and did not continue to talk about this topic. said to the two behind him: "This is my disciple who is not a weapon, the commander of the Jinyi Guard of the Great Cause City, Wu Sangui, the word is respectful." He said to Wu Lao Er: "These two are my confidants, the Xiong brothers of Baihutang, this is Xiong Da, that is Xiong Er, and there is a nickname Bald Qiang, I will leave him in the capital to take care of the family." ”

Wu Lao Er is no longer able to complain, even if one day he accidentally falls into the sheep village to fight the gray wolf, and snatches the love of the red wolf, he will not be surprised.

In addition to Liu Jin, the governor of the East Factory, there are three inner halls and four outer halls, all of which are led by deacons. The White Tiger Hall of Haidafu is one of the four outer halls, which shows that Haidafu is highly used. And the people in the hall are either famous people in the rivers and lakes before, or they are masters who have been carefully cultivated in the East Factory. Wu Lao Er has never heard of the names of the two brothers, Xiong Daxiong, and they must be their own children of Dongchang Genzheng Miaohong. If such people have the opportunity, an outward commander is not a problem.

Wu Lao Er and the two brothers said hello and took Hai Dafu and the three of them to their big study, Hai Dafu is not an outsider, and his henchmen are the same, otherwise if someone else comes, Wu Lao Er will not bring it to the study, but can only take people to Youle Hall, which is the place to entertain guests.

After beckoning the housekeeper to serve tea, Wu Lao Er said to Hai Dafu, who was sitting in his place: "The master plans to eat something at night, and the disciple has sent everyone home, leaving only three old housekeepers, absolutely trustworthy." If you want Zhang Luo to eat and drink, we have to think about it in advance. ”

Hai Dafu looked at Wu Laoer's big study and said, "Eating and drinking small things, you can do it." Your study is really magnanimous, no worse than that of the family. ”

Wu Lao Er said abruptly: "Master, your old man has praised it falsely, and in the future, when the disciple has money, he will also give you an old man." ”

Hai Dafu shook his head and said: "Our family doesn't have that good life, and we don't lose our life." Your filial piety will be received by our family, and the house is still not needed. After a pause, Hai Dafu asked Wu Lao Er, "How many people are you going to take?" ”

Wu Lao Er glanced at Xiong Da Xiong Er, since Hai Dafu can ask like this, he must have told the two brothers. "I'm going to bring five people, I'm afraid that there will be no bottom in my heart if there are fewer people."

Hai Dafu shook his head and said: "It's too much, it's enough to bring two or three people, and I'm afraid it's not easy to arrange any more." Assassination is not a matter of having more people, the better, and having two cronies is more than enough. ”

The two brothers of the Xiong family over there showed a grateful look, and Wu Lao Er said quietly: "There are a lot of people from the Black Jade Country, and this has not been done yet." ”

"Humph!" Hai Dafu snorted disdainfully, "The Black Jade Kingdom is killing itself, even if you don't know that there are assassins in advance, will there be fewer guards in the Royal Mansion and the City Lord's Mansion on the day of the Double Ninth Festival?" Although it will definitely be a surprise at that time, the result is just that. As long as the assassin misses the blow and there is no subsequent mistake, they still can't help Zhao Jun. No matter how suspicious the assassination incident is, even if there is no intelligence from the Hidden Horse, their success rate is not high. ”

Wu Lao Er nodded approvingly and said: "Sure enough, Jiang is still old and spicy, let Master say this, disciple I am a mouthful!" ”

Hai Dafu ignored Wu Laoer's sycophants, and continued: "We are different, this time our mission is not to be publicized, just need to breathe out of our hearts, so take two or three people, find a good target and kill it with one blow, and it is more convenient to retreat after the event." Otherwise, there will be a lot of people, and if you can't say it well, there will be a basket. ”

"What the master said is, fortunately, I haven't recruited a few of them yet, just wait a little later for the disciple to call a few people over."

"Be careful, this time Your Majesty will appoint you, and the Governor will personally sit in charge. After the deed is completed, the reward will not be much, and if it fails, hum, the punishment will not be less. The previous incident came out, and the brocade guards of the White Jade Kingdom were about to become a joke, so this time it was a battle of revenge, and they couldn't be lost no matter what. ”

Wu Lao Er said puzzledly: "Don't miss a hand? That's the back."

Hai Dafu waved his hand to interrupt Wu Laoer's words, "Who knows what will happen in the future, maybe Your Majesty will see what we are doing well and reward us more." Don't just care about money, money, and money at a young age, and being loyal to the country is what you should think about! ”

After saying that, Hai Dafu's tone became more and more severe, and Wu Lao Er understood that he should not have told the Xiong brothers about the task of assassination in the military camp.

Thinking of this, Wu Lao Er smiled embarrassedly at the Xiong family brothers: "Let the two Xiong brothers laugh, the younger brother has been poor since he was a child, but he can't hear a word about money, and he can't wait for his bed to be made of gold." ”

Xiong Da smiled honestly and said: "Brother Wu has seen the outside, in addition to thinking about doing a good job for His Majesty and being loyal to the country, we Jinyiwei are not just going to that little yellow and white thing, I want Xiong Da to say that Brother Wu is a true temperament, and we will definitely be close to each other in the future." ”

It's like there is a modern saying that 'I can be sassy, but you can't bother'. Wu Lao Er can say that he is greedy for money, but as Hai Dafu's subordinate, even if the future is limitless, he can't really take Wu Lao Er as his younger brother. What's more, Wu Lao Er is a commander of all places at a young age, and the road in the future is much easier than that of the two brothers.

Wu Lao Erqian said: "Where does the true temperament come from, it is the inferior nature." Master, he doesn't know how many times he has told me, but he doesn't have a long memory. ”

After speaking, Wu Lao Er turned to Hai Dafu and said: "Master will ask the housekeeper to take you and the two Xiong brothers to walk around my mansion in a while, although there is no scenery in the cold winter wax moon, but looking at the pavilions and pavilions can also broaden your mind." ”

Hai Dafu nodded and said: "You are busy with your going, many colleagues will arrive today, you have arranged it, otherwise you will not look good." ”

"Don't worry, Master, just our big house, not to mention thirty or fifty people, even one hundred and eighty people can live in it, and it is spacious!" After a few words, Wu Lao Er got up and hugged his fists and said, "The disciple went out first, and let the housekeeper wait at the door for a while, Master, if you have anything, just tell the housekeeper to do it." He turned to Xiong Daxiong Er, who stood up, and said: "The two Xiong brothers will wait a while, and the brothers will not accompany you, so I hope you don't be surprised." ”

Out of the study, Wu Lao Er rode a horse and ran to the Jinyi Guard's yamen. Daye City is not allowed to run wildly, so you have to move slowly. When he arrived at the Yamen and ordered his subordinates to call Duan Tianbao to see him, Wu Lao Er had already made up his mind not to bring Liu Shuangxi and Jinsha, even though both of them were very good.

"Your Excellency, are you looking for me?" Duan Tianbao trotted into the hall where Wu Lao Er was doing business, and added some firewood to the stove.

Wu Lao Er looked at Duan Tianbao, who was smiling, and said with a smile: "Why old Duan? Seeing that you are overjoyed, you can't close your mouth, and if you have any happy things, let me hear them. ”

"Hehe, the adult laughed, but I heard that the adult was looking for a subordinate, and the subordinate was happy."

Wu Lao Er Khan said: "Old Duan, everyone is more familiar, you don't have to be so sycophant, right?" Without waiting for Duan Tianbao to speak, Wu Lao Er pointed to the door and motioned to close the door.

Wu Lao Er scratched his nose and thought for a while: "There is a thing, not necessarily a good or bad thing, but you have to go." Declare in advance that it may be life-threatening. ”

Looking at Duan Tianbao's embarrassed face, Wu Lao Er increased the price, "Your Majesty has appointed it, and the Duke is in charge." There were more than 20 participants in the above command. ”

Duan Tianbao said loudly with a straight face: "My lord, what you said, as long as you open your mouth, your subordinates must go to the soup!" You say, what task? ”

Wu Lao Er quickly said about going to the Black Jade Country to carry out the assassination, and finally said: "Those who can go are absolutely reliable people, and there is no room for mistakes in this matter, understand?" ”

Duan Tianbao immediately patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates are famous for their strict mouths!" After a pause, he asked, "How many people are we going to go to Daye City, my lord?" ”

"My plan is you, me, Yuan Hai and Zhang San." looked at Duan Tianbao's face and said, "Li Si, you have to leave a caretaker, as for Yuan Jiang."

Speaking of this, Wu Lao Er didn't say anything, staring at Duan Tianbao motionlessly.

Duan Tianbao's expression moved, "After all, Li Si's level is not enough, and he doesn't have much experience, don't make any big mess, just leave Yuan Jiang at home to assist Li Si, what do you say?" ”

Wu Lao Er nodded quietly, "Okay, that's it." I'll go back first, I don't know how many more people will come in a while, you go and find the Yuan family brothers and Zhang San now, and talk about this matter privately. Then find an excuse to take Yuan Hai and Zhang San to my house, remember, don't let more people know! ”

Duan Tianbao got up and said, "Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will go now, until the lord's mansion, no one can disappear in front of my eyes!" ”

Wu Lao Er waved his hand, "There's no need, go ahead." Remember, it's only the five of us who know! ”

"Yes, sir!"

Wu Lao Er thought about it and stopped him again: "In a while, the three of you will go to the Sihai Restaurant in the west of the city by the way, and let them send a banquet for sixty people to my house later, and the money will be on our yamen account." Don't go to the east and north of the city, there are too many people! If they ask you, they will come up with an excuse to fool you around. ”

"Okay, don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will take care of it. By the way, my lord, are there any special dishes for the banquet? ”

Wu Lao Er said casually: "It's okay to have new dishes, those buns haven't eaten the characteristics of our Daye City, so they can open their eyes." After thinking about it, he added, "Some fresh honey!" ”

"Fresh honey" Duan Tianbao clenched his fists and left thoughtfully.
