Shi Pingao said with a smile: "There is no news now, but I can tell Zhao Gongzi one thing, as soon as the news of Huai'an Mansion came back, my general immediately turned his face, and the people sent by the Feng family all went out, and they couldn't eat and sleep well in the past few days, and when the two people released by Zhao Gongzi came back, they were relieved, and they had already discussed with the students, and when they all went back, they must let the Feng family pay another sum of money to make up for the vacancy and casualties!" ”

"When the money arrives in a few days, Mr. Shi will take six hundred taels!" Zhao Jin said with a smile.

Shi Pingao's face was full of joy and thanked him again, this incident made Zhao Jin feel a lot more relieved, after the battle of Huai'an Mansion, the Feng family's combat power was exhausted, but whether the deputy general of Wolf Mountain would be angry and angry to retaliate, and even cause other consequences in the official face, this is what Zhao Jin was most worried about, so he let go of the two captives to report the news, just to put an end to this possibility.

Now this Shi Pingao's feedback has put Zhao Jin at ease, a major foreign aid of the Feng family has been stripped away, and the external forces that are not easy to control are much less.

"I heard from the person who caught it, this is the leader of the team, Mr. Qian, he is not in the captives, has he already run back?" The matter was settled, and Zhao Jin also relaxed a lot here, and asked casually.

Speaking of this name, Shi Pingao's face immediately turned gloomy, and he said hatefully: "This useless waste fled there without knowing the way, otherwise the military law would not be able to spare him!" ”

"Did you go to Feng's house with that Li Dajin?"

"What Zhao Gongzi reminded is that when the students go back, they must instigate a strict investigation, and the sins this time are all on these two people!" Shi Pingao gritted his teeth and said, since the person is missing, he can naturally insert charges at will.

The matter was settled, and Shi Pingao immediately left with a large group of people, and only three guards remained here as a contact.

Zhao Jin did not continue to delay here, when the silver came, the village would naturally arrange for the release of people, and the Sun family firm had begun to increase the delivery of materials over there.

Before returning to Xuzhou, Zhao Jin sent an order to the village, asking them to send people to search the entire Caowozi area, whether it was a thief's nest or a homeless people's enclosure, all of them must be cleaned up and merged, and they should also contact all kinds of salt sellers and salt barons operating in this area, so that they can use the village's side as a distribution place.

After defeating the Feng family, in that area, even counting Shuyang County, there is no longer the strength that can hardly shake the homeless village, and the armed men and horses in the homeless village have a huge advantage, and they can plot more things.

Before Zhao Jin left, someone sent in the name card every day, and the people who visited the door said that it was not an exaggeration to step through the threshold, although Yutou Town is still autonomous, but everyone has seen the huge figure of Zhao Ziying, and can probably guess what will happen in the future.

Compared with the lively Yutou Town, Yangzhou City, which should be a thousand times more prosperous and noisy, is a little weird, and everyone is privately rumored that the Feng family has suffered a big loss in Huai'an Mansion, and it has hurt its vitality.

Among the dozens of salt merchants in Yangzhou, the reason why the Feng family is known as the chief, in addition to the connections in the officialdom, the main reason is that the Feng family is extremely powerful in Huai'an Mansion, and even relies on force to control the private salt channels and private salt farms over there, which is equivalent to holding the origin and source of Huai salt, and most people's necks are choked by him, so they can naturally become the chief.

But now, this force has been beaten to ashes, and the deputy general of Wolf Mountain, who was originally close to him, suddenly put on a posture of breaking off friendship, without the resources on the knife handle, the territory of Huai'an Mansion will not be able to maintain, and there will be no way to pinch everyone's neck.

Coincidentally, on the third day of the first month of March, it was the Feng family's family banquet as usual, at the banquet, the salt merchants with status in Yangzhou and the officials on the salt affairs would come, and the share of the year would be roughly set here, and then the official would go through the formalities.

However, at this year's Feng family banquet, two-thirds of the guests did not arrive for some reason, and among the people who came, many people sent their own stewards and the like.

The situation is so ruthless, when your Feng family can suppress everyone, it is naturally respectful, and you can't hold it down, you can't even sit firmly in the position of chief, who cares about you.

The undercurrent of Yangzhou City is agitated, and the idlers are excitedly paying attention to this scene, and at the same time, the name of Xuzhou Zhao Jin began to be mentioned in Yangzhou City, but when it comes to discussions, most of them are used as commentary stories, a young man of less than twenty can do such a big thing, no one will believe it, and some well-informed people guess that it is the hand of the Xuzhou general.

In the past, the Feng family's nursing home martial artists were more popular on the streets, and their style was more than that of the officials in the government and county offices, with their chests and stomachs folded, and their toes were high, but now they are a little gray, and some of them have thin faces, and they don't even take the big road, so as not to see too many people.

There were few people on the path, so nothing would be discovered, and in the corner of the alley, a Feng family guard was already kneeling on the ground, with a few bruises on his face, and his face was full of panic, and two big men in boatman's clothes stood in front of him.

"Li Ye, Uncle Bao, no, Bao Gongzi, no, as soon as Feng Bao's kid came back, he said that Li Ye you didn't do a good job, maybe Li Ye you sold everyone, everyone didn't believe it, but the old lady and the old man believed it, and now the guards at home Ding Zhuang are all kept by Feng Da and Feng, and the little ones can only listen to it!"

Li Dajin had a piece of green cloth tied to his head, he looked no different from the people on the boat, his beard had been cut off a lot, he really couldn't recognize it at first glance, he asked with a gloomy face: "Did Feng Bao attack my family?" ”

The kneeling Feng family guard rolled his eyes, and before he could speak, the scabbard in the hand of the big man on the side was drawn, and half of his face was immediately bruised.

"Be honest, you don't rub sand in your eyes!" The voice of the big man next to Li Dajin was very cold, it was Li He, the disappeared Qianzong.

The guard opened his mouth and spat out blood, there were still a few teeth in it, looked at the steel knife that was half-unsheathed, and said with a leaky mouth: "Feng Bao said that he was going to raid Li Ye's house, but he had to wait for Li Ye to come back and do it together, there should be someone ambushing over there." ”

Li Dajin's expression did not change, and after being silent for a while, he waved his hand and said, "You go first, don't tell outsiders about seeing me today." ”

The guard was already trembling with fright because of the silence, but when he heard this, he nodded again and again in agreement: "Li Ye rest assured, Li Ye is kind to the little ones, and the little ones know what to do."

He lowered his head to hide his excitement and resentment, and went back to report the news, there will definitely be a reward for silver, and the revenge of today's beating can be avenged.

Li He looked at Li Dajin, Li Dajin just waved his hand, Li He helplessly dodged away, the guard quickly got up and walked out, only to take two steps, heard the sound of something being untied behind him, and before he could react, his mouth had been covered, and the tip of the spear was revealed from his chest.

The corpse fell to the ground softly, Li Dajin took out a short spear and wiped it, and wrapped it around a piece of furoshi, looking similar to a wooden stick.

"Kill him in front of him and shout." Li Dajin explained.

Li Dajin's residence is not in the Feng family's mansion, and it is said that an important leader like him should live in the mansion, but some people say that this kind of martial artist is murderous, and staying in it may give birth to something wrong, so Li Dajin bought a good mansion near the east gate, where it is more convenient to enter and exit the city.

Originally, there were subordinate servants in Li Dajin's house, but now everyone is trembling, because there are ten more evil men in this courtyard, and they are not good people at first glance.

"This Lao Li's mother-in-law is really interesting, as soon as she sees us coming, she changes into a coarse cloth dress for work, and even dresses up the child as a poor person, just her rough hands, Lao Tzu is too lazy to look at it, do you really think you are a beauty!"

"Less nonsense, have you forgotten the greetings of others? Let's not touch it, there will be no good fruit to eat! ”

"Zhilu Dao, Zhilu Dao, wait for Nali Dajin, the reward silver, and the benefits of this village to play what girls don't have, I still know the importance of this matter."

The two big men had short knives pinned to their waists, and they had Pu knives and Yanling knives in their hands, and they were chatting happily, when someone outside ran in quickly and whispered: "There is a basket of dried vegetables that has entered the alley and is coming towards this door, but it is not Li Dajin." ”

"Open the door and let it in, leave the dried vegetables for the money, and send them away!" One said in a muffled voice.

Dried vegetables taste mellow, it takes about three or four months to make, there are no fresh vegetables at this time, it is the time to eat dried vegetables, Yangzhou people like to order them before the year, and send them to their homes in the spring season.

The man with the dried vegetable frame on his back was full of Taizhou dialect, and after entering the yard, he showed everyone the dried vegetables in the basket, and some people here took out a few hundred dollars to give it to the past.

The man checked a few hundred pennies a little, but when he saw a blurred handwriting, he was immediately reluctant, so that if he took it outside, it would be regarded as half a penny.

"How can there be such a rule, the dried vegetables sold to your family are already two percent cheaper than other people's houses, and you still have to take advantage of copper coins and bully us countrymen?" The man roared loudly, and it seemed that his personality must be very hot, but this roar was inevitably too loud, so that those who gave money and received the goods couldn't help but take a few steps back, I'm afraid the whole yard heard it.

The two men who were sitting inside chatting hurriedly stood up when they heard this roar, and when they heard what was going on, one of them shouted impatiently and said, "Change him, send him away!" ”

Before he could say anything, the man in the front yard had already rechecked the copper coin, and the big man kept muttering in his mouth, but he was about to pour out the dried vegetables in the basket.

The dried vegetables in the big basket were poured out, in addition to the dried vegetables, there was also a four-foot-long thick-backed straight knife, the big man grabbed the knife and stabbed it straight into the lower abdomen of the person in front of him, the other two immediately jumped up, the big man was not slow, the other hand was raised, dozens of dollars were spilled, just as the person in front of him subconsciously dodged, the big man had already arrived in front of him, swinging the knife and cutting down.
