Chapter 139: Collusion between officials and bandits
Baili Changfeng was stunned, and then smiled: "Why didn't I think that the ready-made workers are here, and it will be smooth sailing in the future." ”
"That's exactly what it means, Lord Baili, I want to go back to the city for the time being, and you have to manage it for you here, stay and come back,
Let's have a drink with Lord Baili again. Zheng Guangzong remembered Zhu Neng's matter in his heart, but he didn't want to delay.
"Zheng Gongzi, you just have to go back, just leave it to the lower officials here, but you must rush back in the afternoon, the kiln is a big deal, and you can't be sloppy."
Baili Changfeng agreed without hesitation, and besides, he thought about it quite thoroughly, helping the victims was originally his business, and Zheng Gongzi was just helping him.
Zheng Gongzi explained some things to Zheng Er and others, and then went to Huaili County with Zhu Neng.
Zhu Neng deeply felt Zheng Guangzong's life-saving grace, and before leaving, he repeatedly told his brothers to obey the management of the construction site, and if there were any unruly ones, they would be driven away directly.
Huaili County is actually a busy scene at the moment.
Many people's houses collapsed and had to be cleaned up and rebuilt.
It's just that all the bricks are still adobe, and although they are very cheap, they can't achieve the effect of waterproofing and anti-corrosion.
Most people don't have too much luxury, as long as they can have a place to live.
Zishi Street, Zhao Ji Qianzhuang's business has been unprecedentedly good these days.
It turned out that if these people wanted to rebuild their houses, they had to buy new timber and roof tiles.
Even if you don't use the roof tiles, the straw you put on the pavement still needs to be exchanged for silver.
After the disaster, where did the people still have silver in their hands, and in desperation, they had to ask the guarantor to go to a money bank to borrow silver, so as to get through the difficulties temporarily.
Because of this, Zhao Ji Qianzhuang's business will be surprisingly good.
Zhao Ji Qian Zhuang has strength, and he is not worried that the borrowed silver will not be recovered.
Their silver is like eggs, which can hatch chickens, and chickens lay eggs, and they live and grow.
Zao Wou-ki, the owner of the money bank, just lies down and makes money every day, and there is no moment when he closes his mouth.
The person Zao Wou-Ki hates the most in his heart is Zheng Guangzong.
Unfortunately, his cousin Wang Huzhong warned him that Wang Huzhong would not use the strength of the government to help Zao Wou-Ki deal with Zheng Guangzong.
Zao Wou-Ki wants to fight Zheng Guangzong, and they will figure out their own way.
When the trouble reached an inexorable place, Wang Huzhong came forward to adjust again, and each played dozens of big boards.
Zao Wou-Ki pinned his hopes on Qingfeng Village's own brother Zhao Huai'an, and specially sent cronies to bring gold and silver treasures up the mountain.
It's been two days since this cronie came back, and there is no news from the mountain.
Zao Wou-Ki couldn't sit still, but the money he used was wasted again.
The housekeeper Qian Manguan hurried back from the Qian Zhuang with a happy face: "Master, in the past few days, the business of the Qian Village has been very good, several times better than before the disaster. ”
"You still play with silver, in a peaceful and prosperous world, everyone has money, who still borrows money, what I want to ask is, what happened to Zheng Guangzong's side, is there any letter?"
Zao Wou-Ki didn't care about the business of Qian Zhuang at all, it was not a simple matter as chickens laying eggs, eggs hatching chickens, and interest turning into interest.
He is now going to overthrow Zheng Guangzong, and the Zheng family's business is doing very well in Huaili County, and it should not be underestimated.
"Master, it is estimated that Qingfeng Village is brewing a plan, don't be too anxious, now that the wind is very tight, Qingfeng Village's actions will naturally converge a lot."
Qian Slam has no better explanation, and he has to prevaricate like this, after all, he came up with the idea, and he has to be more or less responsible.
"It's really not good, send someone to the mountain again, urge Zhao Huai'an, see Zheng Guangzong jumping around, my heart is very good."
Zhao Wou-Ki stretched his waist, he had a hunch that when Zhao Ji Qianzhuang collected accounts from those ordinary people in the future, Zheng Guangzong was very likely to make trouble.
"The villain will arrange it." Qian Manguan wanted to take the opportunity to slip away, so as not to listen to the endless nagging of the master.
A subordinate hurriedly ran over, his legs and feet were fine, but his tongue was not good: "Old, master, mountain, mountain......"
Before Zhao Wouji could speak, Qian Manguan raised his slap: "You kid made it clear, mountain, mountain, grandpa slapped you a few times." ”
"Mountain, there are people from the mountain." The subordinate finally said that he was lisuo, and he also let out a long breath.
"What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and please." When Zao Wou-Ki heard people coming from the mountain, he was nervous and excited.
Qian Manguan specially invited the people who came down from the mountain to Zao Wou-ki's separate living room, this meeting room is not for everyone to enter, and it must be a distinguished guest.
Unexpectedly, the one who went down the mountain this time was really a distinguished guest, Li Gui, the confidant of the owner of the village, Zhao Huai'an.
Zhao Wou-Ki took Li Gui's hand, as if he was looking forward to a savior: "Master Li, you are here, but you are looking forward to the stars and the moon!" ”
"Master Zhao, the villain was also ordered by the owner of the village to inform you that last night's operation failed, and one or twenty brothers were broken on the mountain,
In addition, forty or fifty of them ran, and the owner of the village asked the villain to tell Master Zhao that he would endure for a while, and then make a decision when the time was ripe. ”
Li Gui retracted his hand, which was called an embarrassment.
"What, the operation failed, is it because of Zheng Guangzong?" Zao Wouji's eyes widened, he couldn't believe that a group of thieves couldn't fight a weak scholar.
"Master Zhao, there is a master behind Zheng Guangzong, this person is a hundred miles of wind from the capital, and a hundred miles of wind has a Shang Fang sword in his hand,
can crush the county prince Hu Zhong, once the county prince's status is not guaranteed, it will not be good for you or the cottage. Li Gui's little eyes rolled, full of cunning.
"Could it be that Zheng Guangzong is so cheap?" Zao Wou-Ki was indignant.
"Master Zhao, the current Zheng Guangzong has won the hearts of the people, and the government can't help him, let alone the brothers on the mountain, if it weren't for the relationship between the Zhao family,
Wang Huzhong has already leveled Qingfeng Village, and he will wait until now, Master Zhao, it is better to bear with it and wait for the gust of wind to pass. Li Gui looked resolute, that is, he wanted to calm things down for the time being.
"Then you say, since the government has the strength to level Qingfeng Village, why don't you go to level it, is it just because I'm waiting for the news?" Qian Manguan was dissatisfied.
"Money shopkeeper, you don't understand this, the reason why the government keeps Qingfeng Village, every year the emperor will allocate a large amount of funds to the local area to suppress bandits,
Once there are no thieves to speak of, where will they get this silver? Zhao Wuji laughed, the reason why Qingfeng Village was able to survive in the future was not entirely dependent on strength and luck.
"Hahaha, Master Zhao is really transparent." Li Gui also laughed.
Zao Wou-Ki ordered a banquet to be set up to entertain Li Gui, and as for how to deal with Zheng Guangzong, it was put aside for the time being.
