Chapter 68: Making Up Lies
A lot of money? Liang Yongdong was suspicious, didn't there be news that Qian Duoduo died?
Qian Duoduo was originally the shopkeeper by Liang Yongdong's side, and he had a lot of contact on the business road, and he was very well connected with Liang Yongdong.
However, an incident that happened in the second year of Chongzhen made Qian Duoduo extremely disgusted with the trade between Liang Yongdong and Houjin, that is, the first entry of Houjin (Manchu Qing).
In October of the second year of Chongzhen, Emperor Taiji of the Later Jin Khan personally led the Later Jin soldiers to make a detour to Mongolia in order to avoid the defense area of Zhao Shujiao, the general soldier of Shanhaiguan who was loyal to the Ming Dynasty. Breaking Da'ankou, trapping Zunhua and Santun camps, governor Wang Yuanya and general soldier Zhu Yanguo committed suicide. Later, the Jin soldiers sharpened their knives and looked at the Beijing division.
At that time, Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of Jiliao, rushed to the aid from outside the Guan, fought fiercely with the Houjin, and finally repelled the Houjin soldiers.
However, although the Houjin soldiers retreated, they burned, killed and plundered in the pass, and did all kinds of evil, which made the officials and people of the Ming Dynasty hate the Houjin to the core. There is one more money among them.
Qian Duoduo was sober-minded, worried about the crisis of the Ming Dynasty, and was not optimistic about the future of the Ming Dynasty. But the dignified Heavenly Empire, let Xiao Xiaofanzi bully, how can I not swallow this breath.
What's more, because of these evil deeds, the people near Gyeonggi were displaced at that time, and many people fled to Zhangjiakou for refuge, and they were displaced, which was very miserable.
Qian Duoduo couldn't stand it, so he was ready to quit.
How shrewd Liang Yongdong is, of course he can see what he thinks about Qian Duoduo, but after all, Qian Duoduo has been an assistant for many years, and he does have the ability. So, Qian Duoduo was transferred to the commercial route west of Zhangjiakou.
Originally, Zhangjiakou was a horse market, and transactions were carried out here. However, in order to obtain huge profits, big businessmen such as the eight families in Shanxi went directly to the production area to barter goods. So, Qian Duoduo went to Ningxia to drive sheep.
However, Lin Dan Khan of Chahar outside Zhangjiakou was at war with Houjin at that time, so the area around Zhangjiakou was a war zone. So, Liang Yongdong went to Taiyuan from near the meander, and Shanxi was quite peaceful at that time. There are trade routes between Taiyuan and Henan and Hebei, and this batch of sheep is to be transported to the south anyway.
Unexpectedly, the world was unpredictable, and the peasant army in Shaanxi would reach the river meanders so quickly. So, the sheep was robbed, and there was no news of Qian Duoduo and others. Afterwards, Liang Yongdong sent someone to inquire, and it was rumored that these people were more than lucky.
At this time, I was surprised to hear that Qian Duoduo had returned.
"Ask the money shopkeeper to come in." Liang Yongdong commanded.
After a while, a lot of money came in.
"Boss, you've always been good!" Qian Duoduo hugged his fists and saluted Liang Yongdong with a smile.
"Oh, Money Shopkeeper, you're going to make me worry to death!" Liang Yongdong grabbed Qian Duoduo's arm.
"Alas, ashamed, let the proprietor be frightened."
"Don't say that, sit down, tell me where you've been all this time?" Liang Yongdong pressed Qian Duoduo to the chair, turned his head and ordered, "Make tea, make good tea!" ”
The servants were very clever, they had already made tea, brought it up, and handed it to the small table next to Qian Duoduo.
Qian Duoduo took a sip of tea and sighed. "Owner, it's not easy for us to meet again this time, it's really a life of nine deaths!"
Liang Yongdong was very interested: "Then you can talk about it quickly!" ”
Qian Duoduo spoke, of course, what Qian Duoduo said was a lie that had been arranged a long time ago. made up by Nie Xin, Sun Dengke and other big fools, it is naturally leaky and convincing.
Qian Duoduo was talking about nothing more than driving sheep, and then he was robbed by the peasant army Li Zicheng's men in Hequ, which is true. Then he was taken captive among the bandits, what kind of tribulations he went through, etc., and then the Ming army defeated the peasant army bandits.
"Shouldn't you be free?" Liang Yongdong asked.
"Not really! I thought so at the time! Qian Duoduo's eyes widened, "Who would have thought that the official army would arrest Ding!" Arrested me. ”
"Then you didn't mention the name of our Liang family?" Liang Yongdong is confident that he still has some influence in Shanxi.
Liang Yongdong slapped his thigh, "Hey! Don't mention it. When I was just arrested, I said, I am from the Eight Families of Shanxi! I am the shopkeeper of the Liang family, the head of the eight families! Guess what? ”
"How?" Liang Yongdong listened to it interestingly and asked.
"A big slap slapped me over, slapped me, and scolded while beating and scolding, you are a fucking member of the Eight Families, why did the people of the Eight Families run into the bandits' den? Still shopkeeper? Palm shoes are pretty much the same! Count you cheap, there are no soldiers now, or I would have chopped you up a long time ago! Qian Duoduo touched his face and looked at Liang Yongdong, "Owner, you say that you are not wronged." ”
"Hmmm! Well! Liang Yongdong nodded vigorously, "Then you escaped?" ”
"Run? Did you escape? I escaped twice, but my ass was almost broken! Don't dare to run away anymore! Qian Duoduo sighed, as if it were the real thing.
"Then you are..." Liang Yongdong was a little puzzled.
"This is also a good person has a good reward, I used to rescue a Xiucai by chance, that Xiucai is now the master of the river meander, that day when he saw me, he looked at it for a while, and said to me, aren't you the money shopkeeper?" Qian Duoduo took a sip of tea.
"What do you say?"
"I, I was scared at the time, and I didn't dare to say anything in my eagerness, but he said that I rescued him back then, and I suddenly realized that it was him." Qian Duoduo explained.
Liang Yongdong sighed.
"Later, the master named Zhao Youbin released me and took me to his house, and he wouldn't let me go. I'm going to be raising it for two months, and I can't stay anymore, so I'm coming back. "Qian Duoduo looks like he escaped death." It's just that the sheep are long gone. "A lot of money has to pay for the bail.
"It's good to come back, it's good to come back, and you don't have to mention anything outside of him. There's just one thing I don't know when to say or not. Liang Yongdong groaned.
"Boss, you say." A lot of money is owed forward.
"Just last year, your wife and your son suddenly disappeared, and there is no news so far, do you know about this?" Liang Yongdong leaned towards Qian Duoduo's side, fearing that Qian Duoduo would not be able to stand the stimulation.
How did Qian Duoduo not know the whereabouts of his wife and son, and he was staying in Li Guo's old camp! At this time, seeing Liang Yongdong asking, he waved his hand again and again, "Don't say, don't say, I already know about this matter, alas, the world is in chaos, I think their mother and son are no longer there." ”
"Okay, I'll not mention it again." Liang Yongdong also sighed: "Now there is no family, no country, no country!" ”
Qian Duoduo also sighed, "In today's world, how can we clean it up?" ”
Liang Yongdong's heart moved.
At this time, the curtain of the door was lifted, and a young girl walked in, with a beautiful face and smart eyes, looking at the familiar Qian Duoduo.
"Uncle Qian, I heard that you are back, I came to see you, so I invited you to eat before leaving" The girl smiled slightly, and two small dimples appeared on the side of her mouth.
"Oh, it turned out to be Miss Shiyin, look at it, it's only been a long time since I saw it, and I've become a big girl!" Qian Duoduo hurriedly stood up.
It turned out that the girl was Liang Yongdong's daughter, Liang Shiyin!
