Chapter 83: Fire and Ice
When the child is in time, everything is quiet.
Yang Ge, who was neatly dressed, sat in the upper room of the inn, and slowly flipped through a book of Confucian classics "University" that he bought casually by the dim light.
When the Chinese bloodline reaches a certain age, it may awaken a natural skill, that is, the talent to understand some classical Chinese and ancient poems without a teacher.
And this kind of "understanding" is also very magical.
Even if you can understand what he means, but if you really want to translate it into the vernacular, you have to stop and think about it, organize the language well, and you will always feel that the words don't make sense, and no matter how you organize the language, you can't accurately describe your inner feelings.
That kind of awkwardness is like speaking the vernacular for decades, but it is not as concise and accurate as the obscure classical Chinese.
It is similar to "the way of the university is in Mingmingde, in being close to the people, and in stopping at perfection." Knowing and then there is certainty, and then there is stability, and then it can be quiet, and then it can be peaceful, and then it can be considered, and then it can be obtained. Things have a beginning and an end. If you know the order, you will be short-sighted".
But as long as he is a pure Chinese person, he can shake his head and memorize a few words.
But you always get the age you need to read these sentences before you can really understand the meaning of these sentences......
Yang Ge didn't understand the meaning of these sentences before.
Or rather, he couldn't calm down before and look back at these musty old things.
When he has that free time, he prefers to follow the trend and read a few popular "literary masterpieces" on the Internet.
Now I don't have a choice, and I feel at peace when I pick up these long-forgotten classics.
It's as if they're like old relatives......
has been quietly waiting for every lost Chinese wanderer in his hometown.
When you pick them up again, you're home.
"Tuk-tuk."
There was a low knock on the door.
Yang Ge said softly without looking back: "Come in." ”
The door opened, and a group of lieutenants led by Fang Ke and Gu Tong entered the room lightly, and saluted Yang Ge together: "Owner." ”
The front and back of this room are all their people, and they are not afraid of the walls and ears.
Yang Ge put down the book and lifted the teapot on the table: "Come and sit." ”
Everyone waved their hands again and saluted, and stepped forward and sat down lightly.
Fang Ke naturally took the teapot in his hand: "Boss, I'll come." ”
Yang Ge nodded and picked up the book again: "Let's talk about it, what information have you all heard today, come one by one." ”
Gu Tong took the tea bowl handed over by Fang Ke with both hands, thanked him, and then said in a low voice: "The owner, I inquired about it, there are more than 80 people in the guest's house, and the rest of the servants and lackeys are widely distributed in various markets and docks. ”
It means that if they want to do something against the Changfeng Gang, they only need to think about how to take down the more than 80 good hands of the Changfeng Gang's helm.
Yang Ge's eyes did not leave the book: "Is there a master?" ”
Gu Tong replied: "According to the current intelligence analysis, it is suspected that there are eight Qi Sea masters, and there are real masters...... No relevant clues have been obtained. ”
Yang Ge frowned, not in a hurry to speak.
Gu Tong's heart suddenly hung in the air.
After a long while, I heard Yang Ge say: "Continue to dig deeper, improve the information of the eight people you said, and when the shopkeeper Qin arrives, transfer their information to the shopkeeper Qin, and let him formulate an arrest plan for these eight people, and give priority to breaking them one by one and reducing casualties!" ”
Although there were many people who went south with him this time, there were only four masters above the Qi Sea level, including him.
And he had to be careful to guard against the possible True Giants, and not to enter the arena too early.
Therefore, if they cannot be broken one by one, I am afraid that there will be large casualties on the right side.
That's not what Yang Ge intended.
Gu Tong hurriedly said: "Yes!" ”
After his words fell, a small flag official immediately said: "The owner, the little one inquired, since the end of September last year, the guests began to collect land and grab money for some big businessmen with great fanfare, and in the first half of this year, from the bright to the dark, colluding with landlords, gambling houses, pawnshops, and underground money banks in various places, the collected fertile land was scattered under the names of the relatives and branches of those big businessmen, and most of the poor families who were recently driven out of the city were forced to be cornered by the Changfeng Gang......
Yang Ge's eyes finally left the scroll in his hand, looked at the little flag officer who spoke, and asked one by one: "Do you mean that after the three major grain merchants fell in May, the Changfeng Gang continued to collect land and grab money?" ”
Xu is eyes were too gloomy, and the little flag officer who spoke unconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and whispered: "On the surface, it is the landlords, big families and local ruffians from all over the country who are taking advantage of the fire to rob, but behind it, there is indeed the Changfeng Gang who is contributing money and efforts...... In the northern suburbs, there is a rich family named Xie Fuwen in Shaobo Town, who has been making paint for generations, has family assets, and arrived at eight acres of paddy fields and Dong Dacheng of Jinbao Qianzhuang in Beicheng because of hunger in the month of last year, and in July, Xie Fuwen raised money to go to Jinbao Qianzhuang to redeem the land, and was beaten to death by Dong Dacheng instructing thugs to be killed on the street. ”
"Xie Fuwen has a younger brother Xie Fuwu, who studied under the 'Five Tigers Soul Breaking Knife' of the Jiujiang Jianghu Sect, and rushed back to Yangzhou to avenge his brother, and killed 13 people in Jinbao Qianzhuang with a knife.
"But I didn't want to, when Xie Fuwu rushed to the city gate, a master appeared to stop him, beat Xie Fuwu to death with three sticks, dragged the corpse with horses and paraded through Jiangdu, and threatened in public, 'This is the end of going against his Changfeng Gang', and the onlookers were all silent."
"That master is Chai Li, the deputy leader of the Changfeng Gang."
This little flag officer is a good storyteller, and the causes and consequences of the story are explained in detail and appropriately, in a subdued tone, without losing suspense, which attracted the attention of everyone present.
Yang Ge laughed at him and gave him a thumbs up: "Hey, you're really a fucking talent!" ”
The little flag officer clenched his fists and smiled shyly.
At the right time, a slight sound came into Yang Ge's ears.
He raised his head slightly and glanced at the tiles above his head, and was about to speak, when he sensed something, the words on his lips changed, and Chong Fang Ke said: "Give him a credit, we need such a talent in the right institute!" ”
It only takes half a day to enter the city, and you can dig up these materials and sort out the threads from them, which is indeed a rare talent.
Fang Ke noticed the change in Yang Ge's eyes, and when he heard this, he lifted the teapot and added half a bowl of tea to the little flag official who had just reported: "Keep up the good work, don't let down the owner's cultivation!" ”
The little flag officer's eyes bloomed with surprise, and he hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Don't worry, the shopkeeper will reward me with Liu Stonemason's face, and I will definitely carry it!" ”
The rest of the small flag officials also stared at Liu Stonemason with envy......
Yang Ge tapped the table lightly and brought everyone's attention back to the topic: "Go on!" ”
"The owner, the little one inquired about ......"
The five small flag officers rushed to report the information they had collected with their men during the day to Yang Ge.
Some focus on the history and organizational structure of the Changfeng Gang.
Some focus on the nests and behavioral habits of the backbone of the Changfeng Gang.
Although the time to enter the city is short, it has been rewarded.
This platoon under Gu Tong is the old foundation of the original Luting embroidery and clothing guard stronghold, and it is also the platoon that Yang Ge spent the most effort on.
Now it seems that they have finally lived up to Yang Ge's hard work of lighting the lamp and boiling oil for more than half a year, and each of them has figured out some of their own things from the direction of investigation that Yang Ge taught at the beginning.
After listening to their accounts, Yang Ge also had a relatively clear understanding of the Changfeng Gang.
The Changfeng Gang is worthy of being the nominal No. 1 gang in Jiangzuo!
In just one place, there are eight masters of the Qi Sea Realm, more than 80 backbone thugs, and as many as seven or eight hundred minions in the periphery, and the connections are also intertwined.
In a sense, the Changfeng Gang is more powerful than many local governments in this area of Jiangzuo!
To do such a local snake, you must use the absolute overflow of superior strength to determine the winner with one move, and you must not form a tug-of-war with them!
In a tug-of-war together, they will inevitably lose!
After Gu Tong finished reporting to the small flag officials, Yang Ge was about to make a summary, when he heard Fang Ke on the side speak: "You all said it? ”
Gu Tong and the small flag officers nodded in unison.
Fang Ke lifted the teapot to fill the tea bowl in front of Yang Ge, and said unhurriedly: "Then listen to me...... Changfeng gang leader Xiong Jun's second daughter Xiong Zijin, married in May to the then Yangzhou Tongzhi, the current Yangzhou prefect Yang Yuting Yang's eldest son Yang Huairong as a flat wife, Yangzhou is an important town in the south of the Yangtze River, successive Yangzhou prefects are the backbone of the Zhejiang Party, just the current Ministry of Heavenly Officials Liang Yiliang Lord, is the Jiangsu and Zhejiang people's clan, but also was the seat of Lord Yang. ”
There was silence in the room.
Gu Tong drank the dry tea bowl for a long time, but he didn't think to put it down.
Yang Ge narrowed his eyes, pointed at Fang Ke and said with a smile: "Look, what is a serious embroidered guard fan!" ”
A group of small flag officials woke up like a dream, and they all smiled and hugged their fists to Fang Ke, saying that "their eyes are like torches" and "they are discerning".
Fang Ke pressed his hand to stop the stiff sycophants of his subordinates, and said in an aggravated tone: "I say this, not to scare you, but to tell you that this case is no different from other cases, the government office, the government soldiers, and even the garrison of the guard and the Poyang Navy Division here will not only not be our help, but may be our resistance, if we want to run the Changfeng Gang beautifully, we must act carefully, act cautiously, think before acting, plan before acting!" ”
Yang Ge snorted, and slapped Fang Ke on the shoulder with a smile: "Who is the squeeze?" Watch your skin! ”
If you don't say that this guy is clever, he knows that he can't be persuaded secretly, so he will give him eye medicine openly.
Fang Ke was slapped by him and his body was shocked, and his face turned red with a "swish", so that he couldn't let out a painful exhalation.
The official level crushes people to death!
I'll talk to you, you reason with me.
I'll reason with you, and you talk to me about force.
It's too much of a bully!
It hurts......
"Alright, don't pretend to be pathetic, I have it in my mind."
Yang Ge withdrew his hand, picked up the tea bowl with a smile and took a sip: "It's still the same sentence, how big the ass is and how big the pants are, where can you do it!" ”
Hearing this, all the small flag officials breathed a sigh of relief and said, together they picked up the water bowl and shouted: "The owner is wise!" ”
Only Fang Ke was still crying with a sad face, and complained in a low heart: "Where can it be done?" I see you're sprinkled with peppercorns on your grave - a ghost! ’
Yang Ge put down the water bowl and waved his hand: "If it's okay, let's go back and rest, tomorrow the Qin shopkeeper should arrive, when the time comes, they will be in the light, we are in the dark, you just increase your efforts to dig deep into the intelligence, the day after tomorrow at the latest, let's cut through the chaos quickly, and solve it quickly!" ”
All the people got up and saluted him in unison.
Fang Ke waited until the end, and wanted to say something more, when he saw Yang Ge waving his hand and said, "I'll talk about it tomorrow!" ”
Fang Ke had no choice but to wave his hands and retreat.
When Fang Ke closed the door, Yang Ge turned over a clean tea bowl, poured a bowl of tea, and said without raising his head: "What's the matter?" Do you want me to go up and ask you to come down in person? ”
"Smack."
With a crisp sound, the window opened from the inside out, and a figure wearing an apricot yellow power suit, a small silver crown, and moon-white satin boots climbed through the window: "I didn't expect that your real surname is Yang!" ”
When Yang Ge saw the visitor, there was not the slightest color in his eyes.
Just now he noticed that there was someone on the roof, and just as he was about to speak, he sensed the 'Eclipse Sun Sword Qi', which didn't break it.
Anyway, what they discussed was not a major matter of the family and the country that could not be said to anyone......
And Yang Tiansheng is a little stupid, but he still has a bit of chivalry.
He pushed the tea bowl over and replied with a smile: "I have long said that 'you brain dog shakes his head when he sees it', and you still don't admit it!" ”
Yang Tiansheng sat down at the table and exclaimed, "Who would have thought that you would be so good at playing? It's really a little hidden in the wild, a big hidden in the city, I want to break my head, I didn't expect you to be the lackey of the embroidered guard! ”
Yang Ge dragged the tea bowl over: "Have you just eaten?" What do you call a lackey? What stupid things have you done, and what have I done? Are you embarrassed to call me a lackey? ”
Yang Tiansheng sighed, dragged back the tea bowl and was about to drink it, and when he was about to put it into his mouth, he suddenly looked at Yang Ge again: "This water won't be poisonous, right?" ”
Yang Ge carried a batch of faces, and replied indifferently: "Yes, I saw the poison that sealed the throat with blood and pierced the intestines!" ”
Yang Tiansheng sighed again, took the tea bowl and drank it all, exhaling comfortably: "But I'm thirsty to death, how can you lackeys be so able to speak in the vernacular?" ”
Yang Ge stretched out a hand, and a cloud of true qi slowly floated from his palm, like an old man finishing his iron gall, slowly rotating in his palm: "I'll give you another chance to reorganize the language...... What are we? ”
Yang Tiansheng looked at the palm of his hand, his eyes straightened all of a sudden, and his lips squirmed for a long time before he spit out a sentence: "You are the adults of the official family...... Adults are all right, right? ”
Yang Ge retracted his true anger, and picked up the tea bowl with a smile and drank water: "Count you as acquaintances!" ”
Yang Tiansheng put down the water bowl and looked at him with his head tilted, his eyes flashing with a clear and stupid light.
Yang Ge: "Don't look at it, I just broke through...... You're not happy anymore, are you? ”
Yang Tiansheng shook his head like a rattle: "That's different, how old is the master, how old are you?" How can you walk in front of the master? ”
Yang Ge finally couldn't help but roll up his dead fish eyes: "If you really can't speak, donate your mouth to those in need!" ”
He actually doesn't have much affection for people in the rivers and lakes.
But such an Erha-style character is really difficult to make people feel bad.
Yang Tiansheng: "Seriously, master, how did you break through?" ”
Yang Ge looked at him: "Don't care how I broke through, why are you here?" ”
Yang Tiansheng scratched his head: "The young master was already free in the Jianghuai area, and I received news a few days ago that Dong Ping, the right protector of the Lianwu 'Eight-armed Arhat', wants to break the door and leave the dock and stand on his own, how can this kind of lively master not make up for it?" ”
"Before I got to the dock, I heard that there was an embroidered dog who made a knife... Daguan'er, ten moves to win the six docks of the chain dock master 'Langli Baitiao' Ma Jichang, one move 'frost and dew', has the power of drawing a knife and cutting off water! ”
"When I heard it, I thought it might be you, so I caught up and took a look......"
"Hey, I didn't think about it, it's really you kid!"
He seemed to think of the old sow at home giving birth, and he was so happy that he slapped the table.
Yang Ge scratched his head and complained in a low voice: "Damn, can you recognize this?" The next time you fight, you won't shout moves again! ”
Yang Tiansheng slapped the table: "Don't talk nonsense first, the young master just listened to your nonsense, you went south this time, did you come to the Changfeng Gang?" ”
Yang Ge: "Ang, didn't the Changfeng Gang send someone to Luting to get me before?" I'm going to have to get back on the field! ”
Yang Tiansheng gave a thumbs up: "Urine!" People make you one, you make people full of people, the rivers and lakes say that our Mingjiao is a demon sect, and the master sees that you embroider clothes and guards, right? ”
Yang Ge bent the thumb in front of him: "Familiar, I will sue you for slander if you talk nonsense!" I got the Wind Gang, is that just for revenge? That's because they are lackeys for the three major grain merchants, oppressing the good and exploiting the people! If I didn't have these dirty things, no matter how angry I was, I wouldn't be able to fill them up! ”
Yang Tiansheng thought for a while and replied: "They all say the word 'official', and when others say this, the master doesn't believe it, but you Zhang Mazi said this, and the master is still willing to believe you!" ”
Yang Ge lifted the teapot and refilled the tea for him: "I haven't been in the rivers and lakes, and I don't know much about the rivers and lakes, what is the situation with this Changfeng Gang?" Why is there such a big gang, and there is no real giant? ”
"What are you Angelica Giant?"
Yang Tiansheng replied to him with a dead fish eye: "The woman's belly?" Say yes? ”
Yang Ge thought for a moment and replied, "I thought about it, it's quite easy to refine and refine qi and return to the basics, I didn't make much effort, it became a ...... What's the matter, is it hard? ”
He was, of course, in Versailles.
But Yang Tiansheng really ate his set, and he gritted his teeth angrily and said: "If you and I are not friends, the master really wants to kill you!" ”
Yang Ge plucked his ears: "Do you want to listen, what are you talking about?" ”
Yang Tiansheng was speechless.
If they weren't friends, he really couldn't beat Yang Ge......
Yang Ge put his arm around his shoulder enthusiastically: "What's the matter?" Do we want to re-emerge from the rivers and lakes and do another fucking vote? ”
Yang Tiansheng rolled his dead fish eyes and broke his arm vigorously: "Are you really a stupid son of the landlord's family?" ”
Yange: "Aren't you?" ”
