Chapter 180: The Human Heart
Zhang Chu and Wu Qianyuan chatted while eating.
Soon, the twenty big meat buns piled up in front of Zhang Chu bottomed out, and when he looked at the plate in front of Wu Qianyuan, he found that he had eaten for so long before he eliminated two.
He was taken aback for a moment, and then came back to his senses.
Wu Qianyuan is not a person who practices martial arts, and his appetite is indeed not as good as that of these big-stomach warriors.
He grabbed a cotton towel and wiped his greasy left hand, and asked, "Boss, your family is not short of money, why don't you find a master to practice two-handed martial arts to defend yourself?"
He asked casually.
Because he knew that Wu Qianyuan liked to read, and he learned to be a benevolent gentleman.
So just because he didn't like to practice martial arts, he just asked casually.
didn't think about it, but Wu Qianyuan smiled reluctantly, and replied: "My Wu clan has clan rules, and all my children surnamed Wu are not allowed to practice martial arts." ”
Zhang Chu couldn't help but be stunned, what kind of truth is this?
This is a world where warriors are in charge.
The princes in the court are warriors.
The feudal officials of the states were warriors.
Even the many gang leaders in this Allbright Mansion are all martial artists.
Without the strength of the martial artists, they have to bend their waists and hang their heads in the aisles, and dare to be blind a few times, and they may be pressed to the ground by passing martial arts apprentices at any time.
This kind of great truth about the foundation of a clan, the Wu clan is such a big business, there is no reason not to understand!
But soon, Zhang Chu reacted.
I'm afraid that this is a family business that will become a family business and a family business that will fail.
The Wu family has a big business, and it is still the designated supplier of war horses for the Zhenbei Army, and there is no shortage of wealth and status, if there is a force that matches their wealth and status...... It's the posture of the hidden dragon.
Once the troubled times come, the kind of hidden dragon that is qualified to influence the trend of the world!
Can the imperial court allow such a civil power to exist that threatens their rule?
You must know that a county is not only five grades.
With the financial resources of Wushi, known as "Wulian City", it is difficult to smash down a mountain of resources, and how many five-grade products are smashed?
It may be difficult, but there are more ways than difficulties.
At least compared with those dick silk warriors who dare to break into the rivers and lakes with a broken sword, the children of the Wu clan with strong financial backing have a greater chance of entering the third grade!
For example, with the current family background of the Wu family, if there is another Wupin tycoon sitting in Wujiabao, then who does this Wuding County listen to?
When Zhang Chu was still the master of the Nine Rank Black Tiger Hall before, he had the courage to kill the county lieutenant of a county, with the current family background of the Wu family, if there was a five-grade tycoon in charge, would he not have the courage to kill a county guard and arrange for someone to sit on it himself?
If the Wu clan really has it, and he doesn't have the courage to say this, do you think Di believes it or not?
If it's a dog, it's a chain, and if it's a horse, it's a bridle on it!
Directly cutting off the hope of Wu's sitting big is the good way to do it.
Well, to be precise, it's good for the adults of the imperial court......
As for whether Ushi is good or not.
Who cares?
Zhang Chu estimated that the Wu clan would have no way out now.
As the old saying goes, it's hard to turn around.
With the status and wealth of the Wu clan today, even if they have the determination to disperse their wealth so that the children of the clan can practice martial arts, the adults of the imperial court will not agree!
After all, as long as his Wu clan does not have the force to match his family background and wealth, no matter how many times the size and wealth of his Wu clan are multiplied, he is just a pig for the New Year.
What is a Chinese New Year pig?
That is, the delicious food and drink on weekdays will raise you, so that you can grow meat and fat.
When it comes to the New Year, it is killed with a knife, blood is made of blood sausage, meat smoked bacon, and bones are boiled into soup, and the family eats a pig-killing dish lively, which is delicious.
Seeing through this, Zhang Chu's understanding of Dali has deepened again.
The Dali Dynasty vigorously supported the development of martial arts, and also established the iron law of "non-martial artists shall not be the main officials", but this support is based on "controllable".
For example, AllHeaven.
Many of the big gangs in AllBright have warriors in charge.
But the gangs in AllBright Mansion are clearly the hunting dogs raised by the county lieutenants, helping them do unseemly things and help them squeeze the people to collect money...... Leaders such as Hou Juntang failed to jump out of this barrier, and finally entered the command of the county lieutenant.
Thinking of this, Zhang Chu's eyes flashed with a hint of gloom.
So...... What about yourself?
Where do we go from here?
......
After running out of breakfast, Zhang Chu personally sent Wu Qianyuan out.
"Boss, you should go back and wait for two days, and after I have made contact with the bandits, I will ask you to come and preside over this matter together. ”
Zhang Chu said.
Wu Qianyuan: "Second brother, this matter will trouble you." ”
Zhang Chu smiled, "We are friends, let's talk about this!"
Wu Qianyuan also smiled, "Yes, then I'll wait for good news!"
He stepped into the carriage.
Zhang Chu smiled and waved goodbye to him.
Seeing the carriage disappear at the end of the long street, the smile on Zhang Chu's face gradually disappeared.
He turned his head and said to the big bear with a sinking face: "Prepare the car, go to the helm!"
"Yes, Master Chu. ”
"Inform the mules, go to the helm and wait for me!"
"Yes, Master Chu!"
......
When Zhang Chu arrived at the helm, the mules had been waiting for him in the lobby for a long time.
Seeing him come in, the mule hurriedly stood up and saluted, "Master Chu!"
Zhang Chuyi waved his hand, "Don't be polite, sit down!"
He strode up to the lobby, flicked the hem of his robe, and turned to sit down.
"Where are the Yum Dao people now?"
Mule: "The cat is in a private house in Qingyuli in the east of the city, and his subordinates received news this morning that the thief secretly met with Du Jinrong, the leader of the Qinghong Gang last night, and the content of the conversation is unknown, but what I want to talk about should be this matter." ”
"Oh?"
Zhang Chu sneered, "The way is quite wide...... Send someone to deliver a message to Du Jinrong, this batch of goods, my Silian Gang has taken a fancy to it, let him stop it!"
The mule looked at him in surprise: "You have decided to make this deal?"
Zhang Chu nodded: "The Wu clan is willing to exchange a favor for this batch of goods, why don't I do it!"
The mule hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "Master Chu, there may be a big problem with this batch of goods, are we ......?"
Zhang Chuyi waved his hand, "I understand what you mean, but what we eat is originally a partial meal, and the goods that are okay can't fall into our hands...... Don't worry, I've got you covered!"
The mule said no more, and bowed with his fists in his hands.
Zhang Chu paused, and then said: "Before this deal is completed, send someone to keep an eye on the people of the Prancing Horse Village and the Wu clan, and if they have any changes, report to me immediately." ”
"I guess that Yuema Zhai is in such a hurry to sell this batch of goods, and he must also know that there is something wrong with this batch of goods, and we can't be pitted by Gu Xiong!"
"And the county office, you send someone to inquire about the information, and see if the adults of the county government know the existence of this batch of goods!"
Mule: "Yes, after the subordinates go back, they will immediately spread the news." ”
Zhang Chumo rubbed the short beard on his chin and asked, "Do you have anything else to add?"
The mule shook his head: "Everything your subordinates can think of, you have already said it, there is nothing to add." ”
Zhang Chu nodded, and finally remembered the incident discussed last night, and asked, "You were asked to pick someone last night, did you pick one?"
Mule: "It's been picked, those children are still too young, and the only ones who can be sent over at present are Xiao Hei and Ergouzi." ”
Zhang Chu has been collecting street children, after the stall of the district and county eight rudder was spread, the scope of his collection of street children has also expanded from Jintian Mansion to the entire Wuding County, and now there are more than 100 street children in Zhang's mansion, and more than 100 are placed in a private house behind the house.
With so many children, Zhang Chu naturally couldn't recognize every one of them.
But he happened to recognize the two children that the mule was talking about.
"Xiao Hei is suitable, that kid is smart, has eyesight, and will be trained for another two years, he is a good hand who can take charge of himself, but the second dog is ......"
Zhang Chu frowned: "That kid is a strong seed who admits death, and he is not suitable for this kind of work, right?"
The mule grinned and teased, "You can't bear it, right?"
Zhang Chu patted the armrest of the seat angrily and said, "Let's get down to business!"
The mule put away his smile and said: "According to the subordinates, Xiao Hei's advantage is that he is clever, and his disadvantage is that he is too clever, and he has the meaning of being a mother, far less stable and reliable than Ergouzi, and the child of Ergouzi is the axis, but he is grateful and does not forget his roots, such a person may not be able to do beautiful things, but he will not do anything wrong, and he can keep secrets, and he and Xiaohei will enter Qingxiamen together, and his subordinates can rest assured!"
These words were well-founded and meticulously grasped the hearts of the people, so that Zhang Chu couldn't help but applaud him and praised: "Yes, yes, you haven't been in vain for so long, you have made great progress, great progress!"
"Where, Where, ......"
The mule replied with a smug face: "Thanks to your good teaching!"
"Roll the calves!"
Zhang Chu scolded with a smile: "What did Lao Tzu teach you, can Lao Tzu himself not be clear?"
"Since you have an idea about this, then do it boldly, well, before sending those two children out, bring them over to me to meet!"
The mule nodded: "The subordinates can save it." ”
"By the way, don't worry about the affairs of the Blood Shadow Guard all day long, and pull down your martial arts cultivation...... How much of your flesh and blood have you mastered?"
As soon as Zhang Chu asked about this, the mule's face was a little embarrassed, and he said hesitantly: "This, that, may ......."
Zhang Chuyi raised his eyebrows and shouted: "How many percent!"
The mule swallowed a mouthful of saliva and whispered, "Seventy." ”
"Huh!"
Zhang Chu sneered, "You don't want money when you are Lao Tzu's blood, right?"
Seeing that his eldest brother's face was not good, the mule instantly remembered his methods to rectify Da Xiong and Li Zheng, and suddenly panicked: "Big brother, don't be angry, you give me some more time, four months, no, I will definitely be able to enter the product!"
"Huh!"
"I'll give you another month!"
"You won't be able to buy it again in a month...... I'm afraid that my mother's mung beans are moldy!"
The mule was shocked, "Don't, such a trivial matter, don't bother your aunt, you give me two more months, just two months, I will definitely enter the product, if I can't enter, I won't bring the bloody guard, go back to lead the horse for you, do you think?"
"Think beautifully!"
Zhang Chu decided, "Lao Tzu spit out, I have never had the habit of licking it back, and I said it for a month...... Don't worry, I'll definitely ask my mother to put more mung beans for you!
