readx;? Chapter 50 Internal and external troubles

Ding Peng finished instructing his disciples in the morning, and took time to go to the Houshan Iron Mine at noon. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Iron ore production is normal, Hong Liu is indeed a serious and responsible manager, and it is rare to be very proficient in technology and business, after Ding Peng used pulleys and rails to improve the mountain road traffic, he reasonably arranged manpower, and the output of iron ore increased steadily.

When Ding Peng asked how far the output could be, Hong Liu's face was full of red light and he said excitedly: "Owner, I guarantee that this month's output will definitely exceed 500,000 catties." ”

Ding Peng was also excited in his heart, according to this rate of output growth, the iron ore could provide him with at least 500 contribution points per month after half a year. In that case, many of his plans, including the plan to vigorously train disciples to expand the sect, could be carried out smoothly.

And if he guesses well, when he cultivates a certain level of master disciples, the system will definitely have rich rewards, so that a virtuous circle will be formed, he will use iron ore resources to develop and expand the sect, and when the sect is prosperous and excellent disciples come out, he will feed back himself.

Ding Peng praised Hong Liu a few words, and in order to improve his enthusiasm, he increased the bonus of the month by 10%. Hong Liu's face was full of joy, for this simple man, there is nothing more interesting than doing what he is interested in and earning a lot of money.

After Ding Peng inspected the iron ore production, he called the two bookkeepers and a steward hired by the Lingshan faction to talk, and Ding Peng consciously asked them to keep a distance from each other on weekdays, forming an independent office, where they lived and worked, were not next to each other. He also deliberately set the salaries of the three people to different levels, causing them to compete with each other and be jealous, and at the same time, to adjust the enthusiasm of the three people and balance their mentality with a separate bonus, which ultimately caused a situation where the three could not effectively hold together.

Ding Peng listened to the work reports of the three of them, of course, it was inevitable, after talking about the work, they said some bad things about the other two, Ding Peng pretended to be serious, listened carefully, and said that he would attach importance to their opinions and would send someone to investigate secretly.

Because there is no time to personally manage the iron mine, but this iron mine is very important to the current Ding Peng and the Lingshan faction, so Ding Peng can only use this divide-and-conquer method, let Hong Liu manage production, the account room is in charge of finance, and the manager is responsible for logistics and procurement, and then the three parties supervise each other, and the two accounts also work independently, although the work efficiency sometimes seems a little slower, but it is still within an acceptable range, only when their contradictions are so sharp that they are irreconcilable, Ding Peng will intervene, and he is not ready to interfere at other times.

What Ding Peng is most worried about is that they are hugging together, secretly colluding, and jointly deceiving him, the master, except for this, other aspects can be tolerated temporarily.

After inspecting the iron mine, Ding Peng saw that it was not early, so he set off to return to the Lingshan faction, and after returning to the sect, he felt a little tired, so he went back to the room to rest first.

As soon as he returned to the room, the disciple Zhang Qiaoer came over to make tea for him, Ding Peng is actually a hedonist, but now everything is hastily created, and there is no such condition or that mind to enjoy, but the clever Zhang Qiaoer still found that after the master was tired, he especially liked to sit lazily and drink a cup of rich fragrant tea.

Zhang Qiao'er poured a cup of tea for the master, afraid that the freshly brewed water would be hot, so she pursed her mouth and blew gently, until her fingers felt that the temperature of the teacup had dropped a little, and then brought it to Ding Peng, Ding Peng took the teacup, took a sip comfortably, only to feel that the aroma in his mouth was overflowing, and he exhaled beautifully.

"Master, your old man must be tired, Qiao'er will press your shoulder?" Zhang Qiao'er has a small nose and small mouth, coupled with curved crescent eyes, she is a little beauty of a small jasper, but because her young figure has not yet grown, she is slightly green.

Ding Peng lay comfortably in the chair with his eyes closed, heard the words, and waved his hand: "Don't use it now, you go out first, and be quiet for the teacher." ”

Zhang Qiao'er still wanted to speak, but seeing Ding Peng's pensive look, she didn't dare to disturb, so she straightened out his clothes that were messed up by walking the mountain road, and then walked out of the room lightly.

When Zhang Qiao'er went out, Ding Peng suddenly opened his eyes, his sharp eyes quickly scanned the room, and he didn't let go of anything, and after a long time, he whispered to himself: "Who has come to my room?...... This man clearly has bad intentions, and seems to be looking for something?"

Although Ding Peng is lazy, he is very cautious, and the things in his house seem to be placed randomly, but in fact, they are all particular, and as soon as he came back, he found that someone had entered his room and turned over a lot of things.

This couldn't help but remind him of two previous incidents, one was that the warehouse was turned over, because nothing was lost, so he was not investigated, and the other time he found that the old master's bedroom had also been secretly entered, as if he was also looking for something, but the valuables such as gold and silver in the title deed were not lost, and then they were gone.

But this time is different, this thief hidden in the shadows actually remembered his room, Ding Peng suddenly found that this matter is not simple, first of all, this thief must be a person hidden within the Lingshan faction, and secondly, the Lingshan faction must have important things he needs, it may not be ordinary property such as gold and silver, but it must be extraordinary.

Ding Peng is worried about the internal thief, he is now full of ambition, is ready to make a big show, suddenly found that he has internal problems, as the saying goes, the outside must first settle the inside, without a stable interior, how dare to talk about development and expansion?

Ding Peng decided to find out this thief as soon as possible, no matter what his purpose was, it was necessary to nip him in the bud.

But who is this thief?

Lantian, Liu Yangu, Zhang Qiaoer, or other disciples, other people?

Ding Peng fell into deep thought, his thoughts turned rapidly, thinking about how to find out this thief quickly and accurately.

..................

Wang Tianfu invited three and four invitations, and did not hesitate to invite five young men to prostitute in the Spring Flower and Autumn Moon Building for a few days, and finally said that they were willing to bend down to come to the mansion as guests.

Of course, he is not full of food and support, he has money and nowhere to spend, and he doesn't really think that these five young people are nobles with a glow, as long as they go to their home, the palace will be full of glory, it is a great honor, Wang Tianfu has his own purpose.

Wang Tianfu's mansion is in Lotus Town at the foot of Taibai Mountain, and the palace is a first-class family in Lotus Town, but Wang Tianfu was afraid of neglecting the distinguished guests, so he specially hired a chef from Baoji City, bought rich ingredients, invited musicians and singers, and invited Zhang Shishu and other five heroes.

In the middle of the wine, after the five flavors of the dish, Wang Tianfu picked a reason, speaking of the Lingshan faction and Ding Peng, he angrily scolded Ding Peng for bullying others, wantonly plotting to seize other people's property, ungrateful, wolf-hearted, and simply a heinous man.

Wang Tianfu said indignantly: "That Ding Peng took advantage of his strong martial arts to bully and bully neighboring sects, and skillfully seized the minerals of my Evergreen Sect. In order to snatch Wang's property, he fought and beat the old man to vomit blood and lie in bed, and he recuperated for three months before recovering. The five young heroes are all high-ranking disciples from famous and decent families, and they must be the masters for us!"

Zhang Shishu put down the wine glass and said in a deep voice: "What the head of the king said is just a one-sided statement, this, I'm afraid I still need to investigate." ”

Wang Tianfu knew that he was deliberately prevaricating, and hurriedly glanced at several accompanying guests, these people were all squires and elders of Lotus Town, and Wang Tianfu invited them to form an atmosphere of excitement.

A squire said indignantly: "The Lingshan faction turned out to be not bad, since that Ding Peng was in charge of the sect, he has become more and more unscrupulous, who doesn't know the iron ore outside Wang Yuanwai, which is a hundred miles away, but he relied on his martial arts to take away Wang Yuanwai's iron ore as soon as he made a move, and he also bullied others to injure Wang Yuanwai, which is simply a bandit act." You are all heroes of the rivers and lakes, but you must eliminate harm for the people. ”

Another villager also said: "Ding Peng has a cruel temperament, loses his conscience, and forces the farmers under the mountain to hand over their children to serve as slaves in the Lingshan faction, beating and scolding them arbitrarily, and abusing them wantonly, those children are really miserable." Under his leadership, the Lingshan faction has simply become a tyrant in Taibai Mountain, and the nearby villagers are all silent when they mention it. Let's talk about Wang Yuanwai, Wang Yuanwai usually helps the poor and gives alms, everyone praises it, and the surrounding villagers call Wang Dashan a good person, but he was injured by that Ding Peng's excuse, and even took the iron mine that Wang Yuanwai painstakingly managed to take possession, which is really unreasonable, there is really no royal law, so I can only hope that a few young heroes can come out to uphold justice. ”

Ding Yingshou laughed and said: "What kind of broken iron ore is worth fighting for, the countrymen have really never seen the world." ”

Several squires looked embarrassed, and they were embarrassed in their hearts, Wang Tianfu hurriedly said: "Ding Shaoxia doesn't know, this iron mine is not those small mines outside Baoji City, the monthly output can reach 450,000 catties of iron and stone, which can be converted into gold and silver and can earn at least 500 taels of silver per month, not a decimal. ”

Ding Yingshou was also taken aback, he couldn't imagine that this small iron mine, which was originally thought to be inconspicuous, could have a net income of five hundred taels of silver in a month, which is really a lot in a year, and his father ran seven or eight shops in the city, and his annual income was only four or five thousand taels of silver.

In addition to Ding Yingshou, although the other four people have no concept of money, they also understand that five hundred silver is definitely not a decimal number, and they have learned a lot of things this time, one of the most useful of which is: Money can make ghosts grind, money is omnipotent, and this principle is also applicable in the rivers and lakes.

Without money, even a young man is unable to move an inch, and a brothel boss dares to underestimate them.

Wang Tianfu observed the words and immediately continued: "If the five young men can help the old man get back the iron mine, the old man should reward the five with a year's income." ”

A year's income? Ding Yingshou's thoughts flashed in their hearts, and in an instant, they calculated that it was almost five or six thousand taels of white flowers and silver. Zhang Shishu even thought of the huge Huashan faction, with hundreds of hectares of fertile land, countless agriculture, forestry and aquatic products, as if the master could not earn 5,000 taels of silver a year.

The Deng brothers swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, and looked at Zhang Shishu eagerly, at this juncture, the five people were also united, and they all hoped that Zhang Shishu would have an idea.

Ding Yingshou tugged at Zhang Shishu's sleeve under the table, and said in a low voice: "Senior brother, I promised this old boy, this is a few thousand taels of silver, we are in the spring flowers and autumn moon...... No, to go to Chang'an City, it is enough to live in the best happy building in Chang'an City for a year. ”

Zhang Shishu did not move, and said lightly: "Master Wang, this is a bad word, we are walking the rivers and lakes, eliminating violence and peace, and acting chivalrous and righteous, how can we do things for the silver? But if the Lingshan Sect you are talking about is really rampant and domineering, even if we are not defeated by the arrogant Ding Peng, we will meet him for a while." It's just that what you said is only one side of the story after all, and what the specific situation is, I will check it in detail below. ”

Ding Yingshou heard that Zhang Shishu was going to refuse, and he was in a hurry, and was about to pull his sleeve again, when he suddenly found that Zhang Shishu had taken the initiative to hold his hand and shook it, Ding Yingshou is also a clever person, and he suddenly understood and didn't say more.

Wang Tianfu saw that the leader Zhang Shishu had already moved, but he didn't express his position for a long time, and he also knew in his heart that he was afraid of Ding Peng's martial arts, so he moved in his heart and said: "It is said that the Lingshan Sect needs to collect highly poisonous cultivation to practice, and the old man has shallow knowledge, but he has also heard that only those who cultivate crooked ways and have improper mental skills will specially collect highly poisonous things to practice. And the old man saw that although Ding Peng's palm power was domineering, it did not match the ancestral martial arts of the Lingshan faction, so he ...... The old man was a little suspicious that Ding Peng was secretly practicing the forbidden evil skills of the rivers and lakes, otherwise the black tiger had strong martial arts, and no one could cure the rampant Baoji for several years, and even Zhang Shaoxia was not an opponent, how could he easily die in the hands of Ding Peng, an unknown junior?

When Zhang Shishu heard "Even Zhang Shaoxia is not an opponent", he couldn't help but turn pale, his nose snorted vigorously, and Ding Yingshou next to him was dissatisfied: "What nonsense is the head of the king, that black tiger was obviously injured by my senior brother first, and then was killed by Ding Peng, hum, he is in the limelight, we have a bad reputation, and this festival will have to be liquidated with him sooner or later." However, what you said earlier also has some truth, I haven't heard of any school or sect of martial arts that need to use highly poisonous things to practice, but legend has it that demon sect demons often associate with those poisonous things. This Lingshan Sect secretly cultivates the evil law, I am afraid it is very possible. ”

Deng Haitian hesitated: "Brother Ding is reasonable, but unfortunately it is just speculation after all, and if you want to convict you through speculation, I am afraid that you will not be able to convince your fellow people in the rivers and lakes." Has the head of the Wang sect heard of any specific evil acts of the Lingshan faction, or what witness evidence does he have?"

"This, this ......" Wang Tianfu rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Of course we want evidence, but this evidence is probably hidden in the Lingshan faction, I don't know if a few young heroes have the courage to secretly investigate, if they can catch a little clue, they can naturally convict the Lingshan faction and Ding Peng, and then invite decent people from the rivers and lakes to exterminate this evil sect together." ”

This is the real purpose of Wang Tianfu's invitation to the five heroes, he has already seen the martial arts of these five straw bales, and it is probably a fool's dream to let them deal with Ding Peng, but the background and backers of these five people are not trivial, and the current rivers and lakes can walk sideways in the rivers and lakes with only the words "famous faction", and sometimes this banner is very useful.

And as long as these five guys listen to their own instigation and dare to go to the Lingshan faction to investigate secretly, they will inevitably have a conflict with Ding Peng, and when the time comes, they will fight the little ones and provoke the old ones, and they are not afraid that he Ding Peng will not be obedient.

The faint contempt in Wang Tianfu's tone made the Hongchen Five Heroes very uncomfortable, but it was not easy to argue directly, after all, they had lost such a big face in public in Heifeng Village, and they were pale and powerless to say anything at this time, Ding Yingshou Xu Gang and the Deng brothers just looked at Zhang Shishu, hoping that he could come up with an idea.

Zhang Shishu pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice: "We are walking the rivers and lakes, originally to uphold justice, as long as we can eliminate harm for the people, the wolf's den and tiger's den will also dare to break through." It's just the Lingshan faction, we don't care about it yet. ”

Wang Tianfu was overjoyed, but he still suppressed his joy, and pretended to be calm: "So, what does Zhang Shaoxia mean?"

Zhang Shishu sneered: "I received a letter from Cao Daxia yesterday, he will return to Baoji in a few days, as long as we find out about the misdeeds of the Lingshan faction, he Ding Peng will die!"
