After a five-day trip, Hu Wei and his party turned to the official road leading to Hehong Town in the afternoon. Where are the novels updated the fastest? Please look for the biquge.info of Aishang Novel Network

Although Hehong Town is called a town, its scale is not due to its close proximity to the Kyushu River, its waterway transportation is very large, and in Yanzhou, it is a transportation hub second only to Langtian. The closer it got to Hehong Town, the more pedestrians on the road became, and the carriage did not have its previous degree, so it could only move forward a little faster than usual.

Zhu Daneng had a certain understanding of Hehong Town, and reported to Hu Wei: "This Hehong Town is now controlled by the Duanmu family. The Duanmu family has a bit of a background, and I heard that the relationship with the current commander of the Royal Cavalry Regiment and Valencia's own uncle Cubilas is not ordinary. Their head of the family is called Duanmu Ruthless, and the name is the same, and no one's affection is sold.

This Hehong Town is in his hands, and it is doing very well, and its strength is no less than that of an ordinary city. Among the three hundred and sixty towns of the empire, the ranking is very high.

The Duanmu family is also a relatively alternative family, they do not develop their own industry, and all their income depends on the taxes of this Hehong Town. ”

Zhu Daneng said this, and couldn't help but smile and continued: "It is precisely because all the income of the Duanmu family is in this Hehong Town, so they have come up with a lot of clever ways to collect taxes, which makes the residents and business travelers here complain.

Speaking of which, young master, you may not believe it. This Hehong town not only asks for money to enter the city, but also to live in a hotel and drink, and even to go to the latrine. ”

When Hu Wei heard this, he scolded in his heart: What is there not to believe in this. Ten years ago, young master, because I didn't have money to go to the toilet, I let the mother-in-law who guarded the toilet pull hard, saying that she wouldn't let me in, and finally made the young master pull on my pants.

Such a humiliating thing, how could Hu Wei tell his subordinates to know, nodded when he heard the sound, and asked: "It seems that this Duanmu ruthless still has some ability, even so, this Hehong Town is still very lively, and there are a lot of businessmen." ”

Zhu Daneng pouted and said: "Duanmu ruthlessness is indeed a bit of a skill, but the fact that Hehong Town can be so prosperous also has something to do with our Langtian." Langtian was originally the largest commodity distribution center in Yanzhou, and after being occupied by the Red Turban Army, many merchants did not dare to pull goods to Langtian to do **, and turned to Hehong Town, which is also relatively close to the traffic. Only then did the Hehong Town Exhibition become like this.

Until now, seventy percent of the business that originally belonged to Langtian is still in Hehong Town, and we will have to take it back sooner or later. ”

Hu Wei smiled and said: "No sooner or later, after our trip is over, I will rob all these businesses when I go back." I want this Hehong town to go from prosperity to ruin overnight. ”

Fu Chen couldn't help but giggle when he heard Hu Wei's words on the side. Hu Wei glared at her and said, "Girl, are you laughing at me for talking big?"

Fuchen stuck out his tongue and pouted: "No, how dare Fuchen laugh at the young master, I'm not afraid of being beaten by the young master." ”

Fuchen said as he protected his buttocks with his hands. That expression was obvious, it was just bragging. This can be regarded as revenge on Hu Wei, because when she was cooking yesterday, there was a dish with a slight amount of salt, so that Hu Wei took the opportunity to catch it and hit it three times.

Hu Wei smiled and pinched Fuchen's nose, and withdrew his hand before she opened her mouth to bite. Although the four maids were born on the same day, they themselves did not know who was the elder sister and who was the younger sister. However, Hu Wei felt that Fuchen was sure, because among the four maids, she was the most naughty, and Hu Wei also liked to tease her the most.

Hu Wei said: "Don't believe it, I only need one move, I can not only snatch back the business that belongs to Langtian, but also make the business that originally belonged to Hehong Town run to Langtian?"

Hu Wei's words made Huang Jinfeng ask with interest: "What way?"

In the past few days, Huang Jinfeng seems to be a little better for Hu Wei, and from time to time he can let Hu Wei take the opportunity to hug and not get angry, and sometimes he will join the topic of Hu Wei, unlike before, he was always standing on the side angrily.

Hu Wei smiled mysteriously and said: "It's too easy, just two words 'tax free'." Duanmu is ruthless, doesn't everything have to be taxed, and if I give him a tax at all, won't all these people run away from me?"

"How can this work" Ximen Xue disagreed: "Taxes are an important source of funds for a town, if you don't collect taxes, then how can you feed the legion?"

Hu Wei shook his head and said, "That's what you're wrong." Taxation is important, but not all. As a town manager, there are many ways to make money. Compare the rental of the shop, the cost of management, etc.

Besides, I didn't say that I would be exempted from a single qiē tax. I'm just putting the taxes in a more hidden place. Anyway, as long as we pull those merchants back to Langtian to do business, and wait for Langtian's business to reach a certain scale, we can do whatever we want. The pig has to be fattened before it can cut the meat. ”

Fuchen pouted and said, "Young Master is really bad." After saying this, she couldn't help but giggle again.

Hu Wei glared at Fuchen, and shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly. Fuchen's liveliness reminded him of Li Yu's girl. Alas, I don't know when I will be able to see her again. also said that he went to see her every year, how could that be.

At dusk, Hu Wei and his party paid the entry tax with gold coins and drove into Hehong Town. Duanmu is ruthless, that guy is really dark enough. The entrance fee is actually calculated according to the head, everyone has to pay a gold coin to enter the city, and when he sees the yellow and clear gold coin handed over to the door official, Hu Wei feels that his liver hurts. He is very poor now, and hundreds of thousands of people follow him to eat, and every penny must be counted and spent. Thinking that the Four Shadows of the Night did not have to pay the money, his mood suddenly improved a lot, and he saved four gold coins anyway.

After entering the city, Hu Wei and his party got out of the car, sat in the car for a day, and it would be more comfortable to get down and walk. Hu Wei's face has a beard pasted by Na Yue, and his eyebrows have thickened a lot, and he is generally not a very familiar person, so he is not afraid of being recognized.

At this time, Hehong Town is already on the first day of the lanterns, on the long street, people come and go, and there are many shops on both sides, so it is not lively. I don't know if the people who are enjoying this peace and excitement know that they will soon face a frontal war.

Hou San, who rushed into the city first, came back to Hu Wei's side and asked: "Young master, the boat is ready, do you want to eat first, or go to the boat to eat later." ”

Hu Wei glanced at the tiredness on the faces of the women, and said to Hou San: "Let's eat first, it's not safe to sail at night, stay on the shore overnight, and get on the boat early tomorrow morning." ”

The decision to take the boat was made by Hu Wei on the spot. Hu Wei heard Zhu Daneng say that from here to Baoning City, it was only half a day slower than the carriage, so Hu Wei decided to take a boat to Baoning City instead. In this way, not only can Ximen Xue and the girls be more relaxed, but Xingzang is not so easy for others to appear.

Hou San led the way, and the group followed Hou San to the restaurant they booked. Along the way, Hou San kept complaining about the number of taxes in the Mu family, and he even had to pay taxes for a banquet in Hehong Town.

Hu Wei just laughed at Hou San's complaints. There's nothing strange about this, as soon as people go crazy, they can think of anything.

Waiting for the third is quite scheming, knowing that everyone has been sleeping in the open in the past few days, and specially ordered a dumpling restaurant to let everyone taste different flavors.

Hu Wei was satisfied with Hou San's decision, don't look at Hou San's leading troops is a little worse, but in these aspects, he is very clever. Many things often come to mind with Hu You, even if Hu Wei doesn't say it, he can know what Hu Wei wants. At this point, even Jebel, who has always been by Hu Wei's side, can't compare to him.

"Well, it's delicious. This round thing, is it called dumplings, let me see how it is made, I learned it another day, I will make it for you to eat. Fuchen ate several dumplings in a row, and studied the method of dumplings with great interest.

Dumplings were originally a kind of folk food unique to Qingzhou, and because of their popularity, they were slowly promoted. In fact, Langtian also has a dumpling restaurant, but Hu Wei has been busy with military affairs in Langtian, and he has no time to take everyone to the city to walk around and have fun.

Hu Wei didn't go out, and the maid naturally wouldn't go out by herself, so Fuchen had been in Yanzhou for a few months, and this was the first time he had seen dumplings.

Hu Wei took a sip of sorghum wine, and said with a smile: "You don't have to study, eat enough first." If you want to learn, I'll teach you when you have time. ”

Fuchen looked at Hu Wei in disbelief and said, "The young master can make dumplings?"

Hu Wei laughed and said, "What, don't you believe it?"

Fuchen shook his cute head and said, "I don't believe it, no one has seen you cook, and you still make dumplings?" ”

Hou San, who was at the same table, couldn't help but interject: "Fuchen, don't believe it, our young master knows a lot of things." And the young master can cook, I've eaten it. It's not just me, Zhu Daneng has also eaten, I don't believe you ask Zhu Daneng. Hey, Zhu Daneng, don't just know how to eat, ask you something. ”

Zhu Daneng stuffed two dumplings in his mouth, and was slapped by Hou Sanyi, and almost didn't fly out. Glaring at Hou San fiercely, Zhu Daneng nodded and said, "Yes, the young master does know how to cook." The chicken he made was very fragrant, and it was the best chicken I had ever tasted. ”

"Really?" Fuchen's big eyes lit up suddenly, and he turned his head and said in a semi-coquettish tone: "Young master, Fuchen has already cooked so many meals for you, when will you make a flower chicken for Fuchen?"

Hu Wei was just about to speak, when he suddenly heard the sound of a fight downstairs, and couldn't help but look downstairs. There were about a dozen people downstairs, and they didn't know why, and they wanted to fight each other. These people are all dressed strangely, not so much like the average civilian. If you say it well, it's different, and if you say it badly, it's called brain damage. There was a guy who actually dug a hole in his pants and wore them as clothes, which was not brain-dead.

"Those are gangsters. Zhu Daneng saw a look of doubt on Hu Wei's face, and explained.

"Gangsters?" Hu Wei suddenly became interested when he heard this term. He himself was born as a gangster, but he really didn't expect that there are gangsters here.

Zhu Daneng is different from Hu You, he is a 6 people who have grown up here, and he naturally knows a lot more things than Hu You, a person who joins the military camp and doesn't care about things outside the window.

Zhu Daneng explained: "Gangsters can also be said to be gangs, with hundreds of people in the majority and groups of three or five in the few. They did not belong to the military or to the nobles, but to idle people. Usually rely on helping people to bet goods, bodyguards or acting out for people to make a living, and some also work as horse thieves, casino thugs and the like, which is not good or bad.

Because they are unrestrained and have a great impact on social order, after the founding of the country, His Majesty Rijkaard once attacked them, and they almost disappeared. The past two years have not been good, and many people have been unable to get along and have started to engage in this business again. ”

"I see. Hu Wei nodded, thinking in his heart that these gangsters were similar to the martial arts people he had seen in the books before. is all through their own skills, and they are not subject to the jurisdiction of the government and are lawless.

In the short period of time that Zhu Daneng explained, several people have been cut to pieces and died. When the pedestrians saw this, the brave ones ran away, but the bold ones watched with interest.

Hu Wei pointed to a group of soldiers wearing gray garrison uniforms and said, "Aren't those the defenders of Hehong Town, how can they also watch the excitement on the side, and they don't even care." ”

Hou San interjected on the side: "I know this, those who cut people must have paid the tax on cutting people." In this Hehong Town, as long as you pay taxes, you can do anything. If you don't pay taxes, you don't do anything. ”

Hu Wei was surprised: "There is also a tax on cutting people, which sounds fresh." "This Duanmu is ruthless and too talented, and he can even come up with this kind of tax. I don't know what his brain is made of.

Hou Sanle said: "This is okay, I saw someone pay the tax of robbing women just now." ”

There is nothing in the world. Hu Wei thought that the things he had seen were not less, and this Hehong Town really gave him a long insight. Eating, staying in a hotel, and going to the toilet have to pay taxes, although it is unreasonable, but it can also be justified. If you pay taxes, you can cut people and rob people's daughters, it's too much of a bastard.

As he spoke, the fight below had ended, and the person who had finished cutting people clapped his hands and left. Those officials and soldiers who watched the excitement found two people's husbands, dragged the dead guy away, and sprinkled some soil on the bloodstains, which was finished. After a while, calm was restored downstairs.

Hu Wei saw that there was no excitement to see, and was just about to turn back to the table and continue eating. Suddenly seeing a figure appear at the top of the stairs, Hu Wei was stunned for a moment, and then a wicked smile appeared on his face, and he muttered: "I don't know if there is a tax for molesting men in this Hehong Town." ”

Leaving Zhu Daneng and Hou San, who looked inexplicable behind them, Hu Wei walked over to the figure. pinched his throat and said to the figure, "Childe, do you want to accompany you?"

The staircase was not far from their table, and the sound over there could be heard very clearly. When Fuchen heard Hu Wei's words, his eyes suddenly widened, Ximen Xue was even more miserable, and the dumplings in his mouth flew out.

Who is this person Hu Wei saw, who can actually make him like this. This person who came up from downstairs was none other than Wu Xuewen, the military teacher candidate that Hu Wei had been thinking about.

Wu is a very typical scholar, he can only write, not martial arts. As soon as he went upstairs, he heard Hu Wei's strange words, and he almost fell downstairs without scaring him. A pair of eyes as big as an egg stared, looking at Hu Wei as if he had seen a ghost.

Hu Wei didn't seem to feel that it was too enjoyable, and said in a sharp female voice: "Childe, the slave family is talking to you, why don't you ignore the slave family?"

The person behind Wu Xuewen, when he heard Hu Wei's words, he didn't even dare to continue upstairs, so he turned around and ran downstairs. I've seen someone who plays Longyang, but I've never seen it so ruthless, he's afraid of being violent.

Wu Xuewen's eyes flashed with panic at first, but soon he calmed down, stared at Hu Wei's face carefully, and gradually, his eyes flashed with ecstasy, and he hugged Hu Wei with a fierce hand.

Although Hu Wei's makeup is very good, it almost makes him a different person. But Wu Xuewen and Hu Wei have lived and eaten together at the Columbia Military Academy for so long, how could they not recognize Hu You.

The hug of the two men made many people vomit on the spot. The four maids and others under Hu Wei were even more strange. They couldn't figure out how Hu Wei suddenly changed his personality after watching a fight. actually took the initiative to hook up with a man, the most terrible thing was to let him succeed.

Wu Xuewen hugged Hu Wei and said excitedly: "Your son, I haven't seen you for so many years, and you still look like you are not flat." "Wu Xuewen is not good, but his brain is very good. As soon as he saw Hu You's dress, he knew that Hu Wei was hiding his identity, so he didn't call Hu Wei's name.

Hu Wei laughed and said: "This is called easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change. You're not the same, I haven't seen you for so long, and you're still like a white face. How about it, did you find a rich woman to wrap you. ”

"your rich woman. Wu Xuewen punched Hu Wei lightly, and scolded with a smile: "Brother is not satisfied, I want to go to you to ask for a bag." I didn't expect to meet you here. Dressed like this, it's because of the north. ”

What is the matter in the north, Wu Xuewen did not say clearly, but both of them knew that it was referring to the matter of Baoning City.

Hu Wei nodded slightly and said, "Let's find time to talk about this, let's go, go to my table, and introduce you to some beautiful women." ”

Hu Wei pulled Wu Xuewen to his table, and Hou San was very clever and immediately added a pair of chopsticks to Wu Xuewen. Wu Xuewen sat down and appeared, there are really a lot of beauties at this table, from left to right, Huang Jinfeng, Ximen Xue, Xuanri, Nayue, Treading Star, Fuchen, and Jebe, who is dressed in men's clothes, also saw through his daughter's body at a glance.

Wu Xuewen sighed: "Okay, you, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you actually let you squeeze the Seven Fairies." There are not many beauties in this world, so you should leave some for your brother. ”

Hu Wei waved his hand and said: "It's all your own brothers, you're welcome, you can pick who you like." ”

Hu Wei's words attracted the coquettishness of the seven women, and the seven big white eyes also smashed over, almost smashing Hu Wei unconscious. This is the charm of beauty, it is really face-saving to bring it out.
