The four seasons of Chang'an are very distinct, the spring is warm, dry, windy, the climate is changeable, the summer is hot and rainy, the drought is prominent, there are many thunderstorms and strong winds, the autumn is cool, the temperature drops rapidly, the autumn shower is obvious, the winter is cold, the wind is small, the fog is more, and the rain and snow are less.

Before you know it, it's the end of summer, and the first raindrops of autumn are ticking.

The brocade clothes were draped on the body, and a cold wind hit, which made people can't help but tighten their bodies.

"Sir, Madame is crying again."

The maid walked to the back to report, and the old man of the Zhang family sighed, looked up at the continuous autumn rain, and his face was full of sorrow.

"Or skip meals?"

"No, Madame...... If she didn't see her for a day, she went on a hunger strike for a day. ”

The girl pursed her lips and whispered.

"Okay, I see, let's go down."

Zhang Mingyuan tightened the brocade clothes on his body, feeling that the cold wind was more biting, he waved his hand to let the maid retreat, stayed alone for a long time, and finally turned around, turned left and right in the back courtyard, and entered a secret room.

In the secret room, two men in short suits with bright eyes and a cold temperament were sitting quietly on the bench, and when they saw him come in, Gu Du raised his head and put his calm gaze on him.

"Two, thank you for the care of your beloved daughter by the Black Wind Party for many days, in order to express your gratitude, Zhang has 200,000 catties of food to send, and I hope your faction will not refuse."

(People who practice martial arts are calculated according to 5 catties a day (there must be some who eat more), 240 men, women and children in Heifeng Village together, the daily consumption of food is 1200 catties, and three months is 108,000 catties, which is equal to more than five months of food consumption, which really scared me.) ）

Facing the eyes of the two men, Zhang Mingyuan arched his hand, and the pain in his heart did not show the slightest.

"Hmm, what does Master Zhang mean by this, we are in the village...... The boss said............"

The hearts of the two Black Wind Villagers who were sent to deal with affairs were bright, but they also didn't show any emotion, and their faces showed just the right amount of puzzlement, but before they finished speaking, they saw Zhang Mingyuan interrupting the words.

"You don't need to say much, it's just that although Zhang can get this grain, it's best to transport it away overnight tonight for the sake of safety, and I can also send someone to help at home, but the trouble of the Black Tiger Gang still needs to bother your faction......"

Speaking of the Black Tiger Gang, Zhang Mingyuan showed obvious helplessness on his face, but he thought more in his heart.

The military generals are already showing weakness in the court, and his Zhang family is even more so, and now the family road is constantly falling, and only two juniors are still working in the army, and they are all small soldiers and generals, and they can't become a big climate.

In this case, their family's property is naturally inevitably coveted, and the leader of the Black Tiger Gang is one of the most greedy people, his daughter seems to have been inadvertently taken away by the peripheral members of the Black Tiger Gang to fill and sell goods, but how can a young lady from a wealthy family be taken away so easily?

Behind it is nothing more than the first action made by the Black Tiger Gang.

Originally, although his Zhang family was in decline in the DPRK, he still had the ability to keep this family business, but in the past two years, the boss who followed the junior in the family was suppressed, and even his family was implicated, otherwise with the relationship between his family and his family in Chang'an City for generations, although it is not very powerful, it will never suffer this blow in vain.

"It's a pity that I didn't get on the line with the Huashan faction ......" Thinking of this, Zhang Mingyuan couldn't help but sigh lightly in his heart, he, Zhang Mingyuan, is not a pedantic person, and now seeing that the power of the government cannot be used, he naturally has to find another way, and to deal with underworld forces like the Black Tiger Gang, the first thing that naturally comes to mind is those high-ranking Jianghu people.

Originally, the first choice is naturally the local Huashan faction that has been famous for a hundred years, the so-called fist returns to Shaolin, the sword comes out of Huashan, the name of the sword out of Huashan is not called in vain, as a local in Shaanxi, the first thing that naturally comes to mind is the big faction in the rivers and lakes.

But firstly, although the Zhang family has some family assets, it is nothing in this Chang'an City, not to mention the entire Shaanxi, and it will not be noticed by the Huashan faction, and secondly, the Black Tiger Gang is largely for those powerful people, it is a knife in its hand, and it does not work hard in the rivers and lakes on weekdays, so it naturally cannot enter the field of vision of those Jianghu sects.

In the past three years, the Huashan faction seems to have changed a few years ago, resulting in the fact that its strength has not recovered until now, and its control over its sphere of influence has naturally decreased a lot.

After a combination of factors, the Zhang family secretly searched for a long time, and they could not find a way to seek refuge in Huashan and apply for assistance from him.

It just so happened that at this time, the Black Wind Sect hit his head on his body, gritted his teeth, and had to press the treasure on top of this unheard of sect.

Come to think of it, if you dare to rob the darts of the Black Tiger Gang, you should not be afraid of them, right?

200,000 catties of grain is not only to buy peace, but also to buy relations, even if the Black Wind sends his things to admit the relationship between them, if there is anything in the future, he will shelter him.

"Well, I see, the head of the Zhang family doesn't have to worry, I have long heard that the Black Tiger Gang has done all the evil things, and the people's customs are extremely poor, not to mention that the Wang family and my Black Wind Sect have such a chance and a coincidence of God-given fate, but no, I Black Wind ...... As a famous and decent person, we will never do such a reckless act as a cancer in the world, and our gang leader will never stand idly by and watch your affairs after learning the news. ”

The two men from the Black Wind Village stood up and solemnly bowed their hands, and the one who was better at talking spoke up, and his tone was categorical.

Spending money to take refuge, he has seen a lot of years when he was a mountain bandit.

"Well, I didn't expect your faction to have such a heart to punish and eliminate evil, I think that in the future, it will be famous in the future, and the day when the prestige will spread is just around the corner, the two envoys will rest for a while, all the food, together with the smoke sauce and vinegar seasoning have been loaded, just wait for dark, my family nursing home and my subordinates will work with the two messengers to transport food."

Zhang Mingyuan immediately had a smile of admiration on his face when he heard this, and then chatted enthusiastically with the two people from Heifeng Village, because he had something to deal with, he asked the two to wait for a while and went out first.

After Zhang Mingyuan went out, the smiles on the faces of the two immediately converged, glanced at each other, and whistled loudly with the simulated birdsong.

A few peasant men who were squatting by the wall of Zhang's house to rest moved their ears and turned to leave, and after a while, someone hurried out of the city.

Zhang Mingyuan didn't let the two envoys wait for a long time, and after a while, he walked in with a strong man and a young man, and introduced them to the two Black Wind messengers, one is the head of the nursing courtyard, and the other is the son of the head of the house.
