Zhang Guangdao and Bai Sheng were not allowed to enter the house, and they were squatting under the eaves at the moment.

Shen Yourong, who has always been kind, has a very ugly face.

She had known Bai Sheng before and knew that it was a famous splash. And Zhang Guangdao was injured in the right rib, his clothes were torn, and there were dried up bloodstains, so he was not a good person at first glance.

Two gangsters came to the house, what if Brother Qi was damaged?

Shen Yourong hid in the house with the child in his arms, the door was closed, and the latch was closed.

Hearing Bai Sheng's shout, she knew that the father and son were back, so she opened the door and said, "Xianggong, these two people are here to find Dalang." ”

Closing the door and latching, the attitude was clear, Zhang Guangdao could see it, felt uncomfortable, hugged his fists and said: "Desperate, bother the two, when the child is well, I will go to find another place to stay." ”

Zhu Guoxiang saw that some villagers were looking at this side from afar, so he walked straight to the house and threw down a sentence: "Come in and talk about it in detail." ”

Although Shen Yourong was not happy that the villain entered the house, Zhu Guoxiang had already made a decision, she silently went to boil water to make tea, and took Bai Qi to the kitchen together.

Zhu Ming glanced at the blood stains on Zhang Guangdao's body and asked, "Have the officers and soldiers attacked the cottage?" ”

When he mentioned this, Zhang Guangdao couldn't hide his anger, and said carefully: "Nine years ago, the government levied heavy taxes, and I and Brother Yao turned against each other. rebelled together, as well as Zhu Er, who is now the main bookkeeper. At the beginning, it went very well, and he also killed the master who led the troops. Later, Zhizhou was alarmed and many state soldiers were sent over. Among the leaders of the rebel army, some people were afraid, so they colluded with the officers and soldiers to set up an ambush, and Brother Yao and Zhu Er both suffered defeats. ”

"Later, we hid in the mountains, and whenever it was time to collect grain, we would go down the mountain and plunder the money and grain. In the past few years, the government couldn't stand it anymore and sent people to the mountains to recruit peace. Brother Yao didn't agree, but Zhu Er quietly agreed. When we went to loot the grain again, he and the officers and soldiers ambushed us and defeated them. ”

"Brother Yao took more than 20 of us and grabbed the boat to flee downstream. When passing by Heifeng Village, Brother Yao went to borrow grain, and was left by Yang Jun, the owner of the village. Yang Jun also married his wife and sister to Brother Yao as his wife. ”

"Brother Yao is righteous and good, and he is admired by the thieves. Of the more than 20 of us, Brother Yao sat in the second chair, I sat in the fifth chair, and Brother Yao's nephew sat in the ninth chair. Four more people became the leaders of the village. The brothers Yang Jun and Yang Ying were scared, so they became angry and killed Brother Yao, only to escape with Brother Yao's children. ”

Copycat fire, the drama of "Water Margin".

Zhu Ming secretly said that it was a fluke, he was so hungry that he almost went into the mountains to join the bandits.

Zhu Guoxiang asked, "What about the child?" ”

Bai Sheng said: "The child is sick and has a fever, and Mrs. Yan took it to Baishitou and asked Sun Langzhong to see if he was sick." ”

Mrs. Yan didn't want to be a villain at home, but the child was so burned that she couldn't bear it, so she took the initiative to take the child to see a doctor.

The father and son fell silent at the same time, they had just gotten the household registration book, and they had not yet completely gained a foothold, and they did not plan to get involved with the heroes at this stage.

Once there is an accident, the previous efforts are in vain.

Seeing that they were embarrassed, Zhang Guangdao arched his hand and said: "When the child is well, I will leave immediately, and the two of you don't have to be difficult." ”

Bai Sheng was extremely clever, and quickly said the key to the matter: "The old white man is with Bai Zongmin...... It's that the little white staff has a grudge outside the little white staff, and the little white staff is in a gang with the bandits. When Brother Zhang came to the village, the old white staff were willing to accept it, but we couldn't enter the Bai family's mansion, and we couldn't see the old white outside in person. ”

Zhu Ming walked into the bedroom quickly, took out the iron money from under the bed, and stuffed it into Zhang Guangdao's hand: "Fifth Brother Zhang......"

"It's Third Brother Zhang." Bai Sheng corrected.

Zhang Guangdao hugged the money and asked, "What does this mean?" I don't want money. ”

"Third Brother Zhang, listen to me," Zhu Ming's expression became serious, "When my father and son were in trouble, thanks to Third Brother Zhang's care, he sold the lake pen, and he also relied on Third Brother Zhang's guidance to lead the way." When the husband is alive, the grace of a drop of water should be reciprocated by a spring. Although the lake pen was sold for dozens of dollars, and a lot of money was spent to buy land, it can only be repaid. ”

"I really don't want money!" Zhang Guangdao pushed the money back.

Zhu Ming stretched out his hand and pressed it back: "Whether Third Brother Zhang stays in the village or finds another place, he needs money to take the child." But what is the truth? ”

Yes, it takes money to raise a child.

Zhang Guangdao was short of breath, so he had to accept the money: "Thank you, Brother Zhu, I have written down this love." ”

Although it is inconvenient to take in the bandits at this time, Zhu Ming is reluctant to let go of the heroes who are sent to the door, so he can only try to improve their good feelings for each other: "The old white man is outside, I can help introduce them." Only he can be the master of accepting the two. My father and I are foreigners, and not long after we were in Shangbai Village, we rashly took in outsiders, and we couldn't explain to the old white staff and the neighbors of the village. Third Brother Zhang, but this is the truth? ”

Zhang Guangdao nodded and said, "That's the truth, I'm reckless." ”

Zhu Ming said to Bai Sheng again: "Bai Er, you stay here, and I will take Third Brother Zhang to see the old white outside." ”

"I'll wait." Bai Sheng should admit it.

Looking at his son going out, Zhu Guoxiang was quite pleased.

Leave Zhang Guangdao directly, that is impossible. Because this is in someone else's territory, they are not qualified to take in the bandits, otherwise it will inevitably cause extreme dissatisfaction among the old white staff, and even the villagers will be jealous of the father and son.

It's not good to drive people away directly, maybe you will offend Zhang Guangdao.

It was originally a tricky and difficult matter, but the son quickly took the initiative, completely resolved each other's embarrassment, and also showed favor to the other party to form a friendship, and kicked the ball outside the old white player by the way.

It's true that my son often has nerves, but that ability to adapt is really strong!

However, it was said that Zhu Ming came to the Bai family's mansion and said a few words to the menzi, and soon a servant invited them into the mansion.

"Patrol the mountains and Zhang Guangdao, I've seen the old man!" Zhang Guangdao hugged his fists in greeting.

The old white man was basking in the sun outside, raised his hand and said, "I have admired the name for a long time, and I will sit." Look at the tea! ”

Zhu Ming explained the situation in detail, and said: "Third Brother Zhang helped my father and son, he was desperate, and the child had a fever, so he could only come here to try his luck, and begged me to bring him over to meet him." In these ten miles and eight towns, only the old man is majestic, and he is not afraid of the bandits in the black wind village. ”

The old white officer listened carefully and confirmed: "The Black Wind Village is on fire, and the iron-armed Arhat Yao Fang is dead?" ”

"Those traitors poured a lot of wine and stabbed them in the back." Zhang Guangdao gritted his teeth and said.

The old white staff always felt that something was wrong, but they couldn't say it.

Hengzhu couldn't figure it out, so he didn't think about it for the time being, and the old white man said: "I have heard of the name of Zhang Guangdao who patrols the mountains a long time ago. You are a righteous man, and you have not done anything to take revenge. I don't raise idlers here, the tea plantations in the mountains, are you willing to work? ”

"There's a place to stay." Zhang Guangdao hurriedly said.

The old white man arranged: "Then you will go to the tea garden, Lao Gu is old, and you will come to the tea next year." ”

Zhang Guangdao clenched his fists and said: "Thank you for the trust of the veterans!" ”

After the ban on tea leaves in Sichuan and Shaanxi, the tea plantation owners need to send the tea to the tea field by themselves.

There are already merchants waiting in the market, and the official intermediary is responsible for liaising with the buyer and seller, and the buyer and seller cannot discuss business directly. The equivalent price is negotiated, the commercial contract is signed, and the tea and horse division directly withdraws interest.

In the beginning, 30% of the transaction price was used as tea tax.

Due to the hard drawing, the tea merchants frantically lowered the price, and the tea farmers had to transport the tea by themselves, which was already overwhelmed.

It was raining, and the tea farmers were soaking wet. If the intermediary doesn't bring Jiaozi, he wants to buy tea in white strips, and those who don't want to sell it must transport the tea home in the rain. The tea farmers were furious, and directly smashed the field, and surrounded the officials and intermediaries, until Zhizhou personally came forward to solve the problem. When the matter reached the emperor, Song Shenzong lowered the tea interest to 20%.

Every year to send tea to the field, it is necessary to organize a strong man to pledge the goods.

Zhang Guangdao fled here in embarrassment, and was actually appointed as the person in charge of tea next year.

This trust is not easy.

Zhang Guangdao used to hate the old white outside, but now he feels that the old white outside is still very good, much stronger than the Yang brothers in the Black Wind Village.

Who knows, the old white member added: "Yao Fang's child, let's foster it in my house, and let him study when he is a little older." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Guangdao was entangled and uncomfortable.

It is obvious that he is taking the child as a hostage, Zhang Guangdao should be angry. But he also said that if he wants to send his children to study, he may have a chance, and Zhang Guangdao has to be grateful.

Boil the eagle and tame the beast!

It's a pity that Zhang Guangdao eats soft and not hard, and the practice of old white staff is a bit redundant.

Don't deduct the child, Zhang Guangdao is sincerely grateful, and let him work hard at a critical time.

After deducting the child, Zhang Guangdao had a pimple in his heart, and this kindness was much lighter, as if it was just a transaction.

The old white man called a domestic servant and took the two out.

Back at Shen Yourong's house, Zhang Guangdao clasped his fists and said, "Brother Zhu, thank you for today's incident!" Now that I have found a way to live, I can't ask for that money. ”

Zhu Ming winked at him and said, "There will always be a time when you can use money, and things in this world will change when you say it." ”

Zhang Guangdao thought about it carefully and felt that this statement was reasonable.

And he has a free and easy temperament, he is a fierce horse that cannot be tethered, and he does not want to nest in the mountains for the rest of his life. Once you have the opportunity, you may have to leave with your children, so you have to save money early to prepare.

"I wrote it down." Zhang Guangdao said.

Zhu Ming also said: "The land my family bought is not far from Chashan, and I will have time to drink together in the future." That day, I saw Zhang Sange carrying a bow and arrow, presumably excellent archery skills, and I wanted to learn archery from Zhang Sange. ”

Zhang Guangdao said: "Whether it is archery or guns, Brother Zhu can come if he wants to learn." ”

Don't worry about the child, Zhang Guangdao has been waiting.

It wasn't until mid-afternoon that Mrs. Yan came back with the child: "I drank the medicine, and the fever subsided a little." ”

The servant of the Bai family said: "My Hun family also gave birth to a baby, and the milk is very sufficient, and the master asked me to help raise the child." How to decoction this medicine, but Mrs. Yan talked to me. ”

The child was sent to the Bai family's mansion, and Zhang Guangdao and Bai Sheng were taken to the tea garden by another slave.

When I came to the tea household settlement, it was almost dark.

The servant said to a gray-haired tea worker: "Gu Chief, this man's name is Zhang Guangdao, and the master has asked him to be in charge of holding tea next year." ”

"Then I will rest," said the old teaman, as he sat there, "and you can go." ”

The servant bowed and retreated, as if he was a little afraid of the man.

Zhang Guangdao stared at the old tea worker's left ear, which was half missing. He glanced at the tiger's mouth on his right hand, and the sky was a little dark, and he couldn't see clearly.

The old tea worker squeaked: "Don't look at it, when I killed people and sold goods, I was still breastfeeding in my mother's arms." ”

Zhang Guangdao smiled embarrassedly: "But he is a senior in the rivers and lakes, and he dares to ask his surname." ”

The old tea worker said, "Ask me what I do, and I'm a tea maker." I don't have to bet on it next year, I will do it for you, how happy I am to only hold the child at home. The old white man has a loud name, and the tea is to prevent an accident, which thief dares to rob it? When you do it, you know that the matter of betting on tea is very leisurely. ”
