Chapter 904: Offending the Wealthy

But Dugu Shun is an old fox who has become a jing, he knows very well that Li Yuan's consideration of letting Dou Lu Kuan enter the phase is by no means hot-headed, there must be a reason for this, maybe the Dou family is secretly manipulating behind the scenes, the Dou family and the Dugu family have been fighting secretly for a long time, and the two sides have been fighting for the dominance of the Guanlong nobles, so how could the Dou family let the Dugu family also enter the court?

Dugu Shun smiled reluctantly and asked, "Has Brother Xian ever been to another house?" ”

Dou Wei smiled and shook his head, "Of course I came to see my brother first, how could I not know my priorities?" ”

Dugu Shun'Oh! With a sigh, he picked up the tea bowl and drank the tea, without any more comments. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Dou Wei asked cautiously again, "Since the Holy Lord has accepted the three requests, what does the elder brother think .....?" ”

Dugu Shun smiled faintly, "The Dugu family is soft-spoken, and it makes no sense to express one's position, Brother Dou should go and discuss with other families!" Dou Luhang is quite enthusiastic about this matter, and has a deep relationship with the Xiandi family, I believe that he will promote everyone's unity of opinion. ”

Dugu Shun's words implied spikes, especially the sentence 'He has a deep relationship with the Xiandi family', which alludes to the fact that Dou Luning, the ancestor of the Doulu family, was once Dou Tai's general, and the implication is to accuse Dou Wei of using dishonorable means in the matter of Dou Lu's wide entry into the phase.

How could Dou Wei not hear Dugu Shun's accusation, his face was a little unbearable, and he hurriedly explained: "I really didn't know in advance that the Holy Lord proposed Dou Lu Kuan to be the prime minister, and it was only when the prince came to the door that I knew that the Dou family wanted to maintain the overall situation, and would never do such a dirty villain's act, please understand." ”

Maybe Dou Wei didn't manipulate it secretly, maybe Li Yuan was deliberately provoking contradictions between the nobles of Guanlong, but Dugu Shun only looked at interests, and his Dugu family was not in the phase, so he didn't accept Li Yuan's compromise.

Dugu Shun waved his hand and said with a smile: "I'm old, I basically don't ask about the affairs of the Wuchuan Society, the virtuous brother will go to the Wuchuan Association to convene everyone to negotiate!" In this matter, the Dugu family will focus on the overall situation and will not express any opinions. ”

Dugu Shun abstained, Dou Wei had no choice but to leave, when Dou Wei just left, Dugu Shun's face suddenly changed greatly, and he immediately instructed the eldest grandson, "Go quickly and let Dugu Wu come to see me!" ”

In a moment, a sturdy young man walked into the Listening Wind Pavilion quickly, knelt down on one knee and said, "See the head of the family!" ”

This person is called Dugu Wu, he is not a Dugu people, but a Dugu general, as early as the Northern Zhou Dynasty, due to the implementation of the military system, almost every family has raised a large number of generals and troops, these generals have changed to the master's surname, the most famous is Yuwen Shu, his ancestor was originally surnamed Ye Potou, and became a slave of Yuwen family and changed his surname to Yuwen.

These families generally follow their masters from generation to generation, and most of them are integrated with the interests of their masters.

This Dugu Wu's grandfather is Dugu Xin's general, and the three generations of his grandson are loyal to the Dugu family and loyal to the Dugu family.

Dugu Wu's martial arts are strong, and he is shrewd and capable, and has always been Dugu Shun's right-hand man, and he has won his trust.

Dugu Shun took a sip of tea and said: "I heard that Song Jingang has entered Yan'an County, but he is suffering from lack of food, you go to Yan'an County to find Song Jingang, you tell him that there are three large manors of the Dugu family in Luochuan County, Shangjun, each manor has 20,000 stone grain, and a lot of copper coins, let him lead the army to carry the money and grain, and I will give him these money and grain." ”

Dugu Shun took out another map and handed it to Dugu Wu, "This is the map of the manor, you rushed to Yan'an County overnight." ”

Dugu Wu clasped his fists and saluted, "Obey!" ”

He took the map and turned to leave, Dugu Shun said to himself coldly: "Play with me, then see who cries in the end!" ”

..........

As the saying goes, shrimp has a shrimp road, crab has a crab road, three hundred and sixty lines, each industry has its own circle, for example, a big wine shop wants to sell and transfer, ordinary people generally don't know, but people in the wine shop will basically get the news.

Chang'an has a large population, hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and lives with all kinds of people, among which rangers are one of the special groups.

The so-called rangers, is a group of people who are home from all over the world, wandering the world, the text is called a study tour, and the martial arts are called rangers, they are adrift with swords, and they have no fixed place, many people are unknown, there are people who have martial arts to break through the world, there are also people who commit serious crimes incognito, and there are people who kill people and collect money to do black things for others.

There are also many scoundrels who also call themselves rangers, gathering on the streets all day long to cause trouble, but the real rangers will not take these scoundrels in their eyes.

Ranger is just a process, and many people are looking for their own home while wandering the world.

For example, Shen Guang, the main general of the Sui army, was once a famous ranger in the south of the Yangtze River, and the Lu brothers were also born as rangers, and even Zhang Xuan himself had been a ranger for a period of time, and only because he hunted Yang Xuangan did he get a position with Yang Qi, the king of Yan.

In the past few days, there has been a small rumor in the circle of Chang'an Ranger that Chang'an Heng'an Martial Arts Hall is recruiting high-level martial artists with a monthly salary of one or two gold.

You must know that the market price of gold in Chang'an has reached every two or thirty-five yuan of imperial money, which is already the fortune of the five high-ranking officials, Chang'an West City, the monthly salary of a senior guy is also five dollars, with the price of rice as a price vane, one or two gold can buy three hundred and fifty buckets of good corn, one or two gold can also buy seven hundred catties of mutton, can buy three slaves, and can rent a mansion covering an area of ten acres per month.

Heng'an Martial Arts Hall actually offered a monthly salary of one or two gold, although it was a secret recruitment, but it still caused a sensation in the Chang'an ranger circle, and everyone flocked to it.

Fengming wine shop near Chang'an West City is a small wine shop in the depths of the alley, there is no wine flag, only a lantern is hung under the eaves, the word 'Fengming' is written on it, and it is not said what kind of shop it is, it is difficult for ordinary guests to find here, but every day there are guests here to come to the door, Fengming wine shop is actually the gathering place of Chang'an ranger circle, it is said that this wine shop is also opened by a ranger, and it is very famous in the circle.

The area of the restaurant is about 100 square meters, and in the middle is the lobby, with eight small tables on both sides, and there are couches on both sides, and the four sides are separated by screens, so there are six small private rooms.

It was past the dinner time at noon that day, and the guests were basically gone, only in a private room in the northeast corner there were still five drinking rangers, if these five people said they knew each other, but no one knew each other's details, if they didn't know each other, but they often met each other, and they were already very familiar with each other.

At the head of the group was a fierce Taoist priest in his thirties, who wore a bamboo crown on his head, a blue robe, and slender and powerful fingers that showed that he was a true man who wore a sword, and the sword was a weapon rather than an ornament for him.

Everyone only knows that this person's surname is Sun, and he was a Taoist priest in Zhongnan Mountain, and everyone calls him Sun Daochang, as for where he is from and what his real name is, everyone doesn't know, but no one has anything to do with it, the five people here are like this, they just know each other in the wine shop.

"What's the matter, the news of the Hengan Martial Arts Hall is true?" Everyone asked.

Today is the last day of recruitment in the martial arts hall, and Sun Daochang also went to the Heng'an martial arts hall early this morning to apply, which made everyone extremely interested and asked him about the recruitment.

Sun Daochang took a sip of wine and said with a wry smile: "It's true to apply, and one or two gold is only the lowest fixed income, you can get so much without working, if you go out to do things, and then calculate the money, it will be much more than one or two gold." ”

Everyone listened to the blood and asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

"I don't know the specifics, but I heard that it is to provide protection for the transportation of valuable goods by the giant businessmen in Guanzhong, and the families of some wealthy families also need protection when they travel, probably these things."

Another person said with a smile: "I also heard that this kind of business also appeared in Luoyang and Zhongdu, the road is not very smooth, many big businessmen hire people with strong martial arts to guard, ordinary people can't believe it, so they will look for martial arts, but the price is not so high." ”

"Has Daochang Sun passed?" A few people next to him asked.

Sun Daochang shook his head and sighed, "If it passes, I won't be sitting here chatting with you." ”

"What is the test, can the Taoist Elder tell us about it?"

"It's very simple, it's a sword competition, walk into a big room, and a masked man in black to compete with a sword, there is no one next to him, as long as he defeats the man in black, he is considered to have passed, if he is defeated by the man in black, and refuses to give up the sword and admit defeat, then he is likely to die in the house, this morning I went to more than 20 masters, only one person was admitted, two people died, twenty people were injured, only me and the other two people retreated, everyone, this gold is not easy to earn!"

"Who got hired?" The crowd asked.

At this time, the shopkeeper of the wine store came over to refill them with wine, and said with a smile: "It's the little pony who lives in our wine store, nicknamed the star picker, who just came to check out and left." ”

"It turned out to be him!"

Everyone remembered the stuffy gourd who drank all day and didn't say a word, and it turned out that he was admitted. (To be continued.) )
