"Three hundred taels!" Under Wu Shigong's gaze, Hadan Batel finally gritted his teeth and said an "astronomical number", and then he carefully looked at Wu Shigong's face, for fear of stimulating this big customer. But seeing Wu Shigong's face change unpredictably, Hadan Battle became more and more weak, and when he arrived at Zuihou, he finally couldn't help but add: "It's okay to have less, just watch it, my lord!" ”

"Hahaha-!" Wu Shigong finally couldn't help but daxiao. The change in his face just now was not because Hadan Baatle asked for more money, but because he felt that his offer was too cheap.

Wu Shigong couldn't help but despise it in his heart: Then Hadan Batel is still a fourth-grade military attaché, how can he put only three hundred taels on his lips? If the official does this, will he lose his share?

And Wu Shigong didn't care about the three hundred taels of silver at all. In the Runing Army, there are tens of thousands of dollars of silver spent on the Shanchuan Division and the Military Intelligence Bureau in a year, and with special expenditures, it can even reach 100,000, where will this hundred-figure expenditure be taken into account?

Looking at Hadan Battle, who was made even more weak by his laughter, Wu Shigong smiled and said, "Lord Ha! The official will give five hundred taels, don't be unhappy, whatever the official asks, you can answer, is this good? ”

"That's the best! That's the best! Hadan Batel was immediately overjoyed, "Thank you, Lord for your kindness, and the next official will take the place of Lord Xiexie." Excuse me, sir! ”

"Well, how many Tartars are there in Jinzhou?"

……

Wu Shigong asked Hadan Batel more than a dozen questions successively, and Hadan Batel really knew everything, and he even guessed, plus Wu Shigong didn't know anything about the situation in Liaodong, so Hadan Batel also said that it was the same.

It wasn't until Wu Shigong thought he understood everything clearly that he served tea to the guests. Seeing Hadan Batel's eager expression, Wu Shigong smiled and instructed his soldiers: "Bring five hundred taels to Lord Ha." ”

Seeing Hadan Batel rubbing his hands with a smile on his face, fidgeting and waiting for the silver to arrive, Wu Shigong asked casually: "Does Lord Ha know the situation in this city?" In this house where this official stays, which general does the owner Mr. Chang befriend with? ”

Because he was in a good mood, Hadanbatel didn't mind sending a message. He leaned over and whispered: "That Chang family is the line of the ancestral family, and his family can rank in the top three in this business in Liaodong." ”

Wu Shigong was stunned when he heard the news, but he didn't expect that Chang Qiu's relationship with the Manchu Qing was even deeper than he imagined. To know. The ancestral general is the first local general in Liaodong, and he has done such a big business, and he must have colluded with the Manchu Qing Dynasty very deeply. So I don't know how much water there is in the situation that Chang Qiu just said.

After seeing Hadan Baatel thank him for his kindness, he left with the silver, and Chang Qiu, who had avoided it, walked past him. I met that it was Hadan Batel who visited Wu Shigong. Chang Qiu was obviously a little confused. So as soon as he saw Wu Shigong, he first asked, "Wu Dashuai." What did Raipiha do with you? ”

"Raipiha?" Wu Shigong is inexplicable about this title.

"It's the Mongolian green skin that I was looking for you just now. He behaved like a leper dog. So the people of the city gave him this nickname. Chang Qiu explained.

"What? Isn't he a military attaché? How did it turn into green skin? Wu Shigong asked incredulously. He simply did not believe that a scoundrel would dare to walk openly on the street in an official robe, knowing that impersonating an official is a serious crime of death.

"Raipiha is also an official, but he has no pawns, he can only act as a scoundrel on the street, and he likes to deceive ......." Speaking of which. Chang Qiu immediately remembered something, and hurriedly asked Wu Shigong, "Wu Dashuai!" Did you give Raipiha any money? ”

Wu Shigong already knew that something was wrong after hearing Chang Qiu's question, and he nodded. He asked rhetorically: "Is there anything wrong with giving him five hundred taels?" ”

"Ahh What he often does is sell false news to unwitting guest military attachés. You've been fooled. ”

"Grass!" Wu Shigong immediately scolded angrily, and he immediately ordered Chi Ming behind him, "You quickly take some people out, catch up with this Laipiha, and arrest him back." Depend on! Dare to deceive Lao Tzu. ”

Seeing Chi Ming leading people to hurry out of the door, Wu Shigong was extremely annoyed in his heart. This Chang Qiu and the Manchu Qing colluded too deeply, and this Hadan Batel was a liar, and after a long time, the information he got was unreliable.

Seeing Chi Ming's departure, Chang Qiu also found an opportunity to continue the topic just now, he bowed down and asked, "That villain sent his daughter first?" ”

How could Wu Shigong be in such a mood at this time? He absentmindedly made a casual gesture to Chang Qiu, and then carefully judged the accuracy of the information that Hadan Baatel had just said.

At this moment, a personal soldier entered again and announced: "My lord! The messenger of the Governor to welcome him to the feast has arrived. He asked the adults when they were leaving! ”

Wu Shigong immediately put aside the distracting thoughts in his heart, stood up and ordered: "Let him wait, this official will set off immediately!" ”

"Long respect! This is Wang Pu, the chief soldier of Datong. ”

"Long admiration! Long admiration! ”

"This is Yang Guozhu, the chief soldier of the Xuanfu."

"Long admiration! Long admiration! ”

……

Hong Chengchou's successive introductions made Wu Shigong just match the names and faces of those major civil and military forces in Liaodong, while those small fish and shrimp could only be selectively ignored. But even so, Wu Shigong found that the muscles on his face were stiff with a smile, and there were too many officials who came to the banquet today.

"Changjing, this is Wu Sangui, the chief soldier of Ningyuan, you are both young heroes, you have to be close to each other in the future!" Hong Chengchou finally introduced Wu Sangui.

Wu Shigong smiled and sat behind his desk with his fists and saluted, facing Wu Sangui, he had a psychological advantage, so he could maintain a very peaceful state of mind.

Seeing Wu Shigong's arrogant appearance, Wu Sangui's face suddenly darkened, and he also hugged his fists and said: "Long Yang!" Long admiration! I have heard for a long time that Runing Wu Changjing has profound martial arts, especially the insidious fists and feet, and he will ask for a lesson or two another day, and he will not hesitate to give advice! ”

After hearing this, Wu Shigong was full of indifference. He laughed and said: "The temperament of the next has always been to accept it when it is good, and not to give others a chance to turn the tables, just win once-!" Wu Shigong deliberately dragged out the sound of the word zuihou very long, obviously making fun of Wu Sangui.

And these people here are all human spirits, even those who don't understand their relationship can see that they have personal grudges. And Wu Sangui's eyes were almost on fire, if it weren't for the public, maybe he would have flipped the table soon.

"Nonsense!" Seeing that the scene was a little out of control, Gao Qiqian, who was sitting in the second seat, immediately scolded, "If you are in the same army, you should be in the same boat, how can you be brave?" ! Hurry up to Mr. Wu Daoqian! ”

Listening to Gao Qiqian's words, Wu Sangui reluctantly bowed his hand again and said: "General Wu Bing! Under the recklessness. ”

Wu Shigong also smiled back, and then said something very unconventional: "It's okay! As a brother, he never took you to heart. After saying this, Wu Shigong secretly added in his heart: "Except for Chen Yuanyuan in your family!" After secretly making up this sentence, Wu Shigong smiled more happily in the face of Wu Sangui.

And Wu Shigong's words also caused a chuckle in the hall. Many civil and military officials who were not familiar with Wu Shigong looked at him curiously. They had all heard of Wu Shigong's unruly temperament, and today they witnessed Wu Shigong daring to fight with Wu Sangui, the head snake of the land, and they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts: "Then Wu Runing is really worthy of his reputation!" ”

At this time, Hong Chengchou spoke in a timely manner: "Today, the whole army has finally gathered, and you can work together sincerely, the governor is very pleased, and I see that the two young heroes are vigorous, just like the national fortune of my Ming Dynasty, this is a good omen." Come on! Everyone, raise your glass and drink together, and make this one first! ”

"!"

Wu Shigong also raised his head and drank the glass of wine, and when he put down the wine glass, he took the opportunity to secretly look around and found that the expressions of the officials were different. Wu Shigong thought about it carefully, that Hong Chengchou must have known that he and Wu Sangui were on the same expedition to Denglai, so he knew that the possibility of conflict between himself and Wu Sangui in Denglai was greater than eight or ninety.

And no matter how young Wu Sangui is, he has also become the chief soldier, will he not have some city government, and will openly contradict himself in public?

And Gao Qiqian was in the army of Kong Youde at that time, and he knew the contradiction between himself and Wu Sangui very clearly, how could he wait until afterwards to stop?

It seems that these people all have their own motives, and none of them are fuel-efficient lamps.

But no matter what their intentions are, Wu Shigong can just cover up with water. So at this time, he also sat firmly on the Diaoyutai and began to eat and drink happily.

And although this banquet was held in the name of welcoming Wu Shigong, it was obvious that Wu Shigong would not be the protagonist. So after a while, those civil and military forces became lively around Hong Chengchou, the governor of Jiliao, and the supervising army.

Singing and dancing, flower prostitutes accompanied by drinking ......, one after another programs were constantly served, until the second watch, Hong Chengchou put down the wine glass and ordered: "That's it for today!" I still need to order it early tomorrow morning, so don't miss the hour. After finishing speaking, Hong Chengchou took the lead in exiting the hall.

"Congratulations to the Overseer!" Everyone sent Hong Chengchou away, and then those who were interested took the flower prostitutes who accompanied the wine, and those who were not interested were single, and they all went back to their own mansions.

As soon as he entered his house, he was greeted by a tall girl of sixteen or seventeen. Wu Shigong was confused by the girl who suddenly appeared, and then immediately remembered that it was Chang Qiu's goddaughter who had arranged to serve him. After knowing the identity of the girl, before she could speak, Wu Shigong waved his hand at her and said, "Go inside and wait!" Prepare for bed! (To be continued......)
