() In the next two days, Zhang Hanlin didn't go out again, staying at Zhang's house to plan a series of follow-up things.

Banquets, city meetings, bandits, and the official launch of the shelter were all imminent, and Zhang Hanlin had to make plans in advance.

The suppression of bandits is urgent, and this matter is not enough to rely on the strength of Dongsheng City alone, it seems that it needs to rely on the power of Chiba City.

Because a group of dark guards (Mingwei) investigated and learned that the horse bandit gang had the two major forces of Chiba City behind them as their support, so they dared to be so arrogant and dominate the borderless land.

Among them, the Du family in charge of Du Xingji is one of them, and there is also a rich family, which also has a grandmaster in the clan, and the two major families of the Du family and the rich family support the horse bandit gang at the same time, and use the hands of the horse bandit gang to do roadblocking, robbery, murder and arson, buying and selling women, and wantonly collecting silver, and the money earned over the years is full of money, and the strength of the two families is also increasing day by day.

And it is not difficult to see that the intentions of the Du family and the rich family are nothing more than to overwhelm the Chechi clan, but since Zhang Hanlin has discovered the conspiracy of the two families, he will not sit idly by.

However, before dealing with the horse bandit gang, he had to rely on the strength of the Che Chi clan, and Zhang Hanlin planned to use this celebration banquet to invite Che Chi Boyuan and Che Chi Huazong and others to come as guests, and by the way, discuss the matter of suppressing the bandits.

As soon as he said to do it, Zhang Hanlin began to plan this matter.

Judging from the news from Bai Shen, except for the Gu family and the Ghost Rock Gang, the rest of the major families obediently took money to ransom people within two days.

After all, now the Zhang family and the City Lord's Mansion are in full swing, and no one wants to touch their mold, so the heads of these families pooled money overnight to redeem the members of each family, and through this plan, the City Lord's Mansion directly received a ransom of nearly six million taels of silver, which made Bai Shen, who had always buckled the ropes, suddenly rich and rich.

By the evening of the next day, Bai Shen came to Zhang's mansion to talk to Zhang Hanlin at night.

Now that there are only a group of martial arts powerhouses from the Gu family and the Ghost Rock Gang, Bai Shen is not in a hurry to deal with it, and at this moment he is focusing on the banquet and the city meeting, as for the Gu family and the others, they will slowly clean them up in the future.

So Zhang Hanlin discussed with Bai Shen and set the banquet at noon on the fourth day, and the venue was still in Tiandi Restaurant.

Then Zhang Hanlin told Bai Shen about the Ma Bandit Gang, and his intention to use the power of the major families and the power of the Chechi clan to exterminate the Ma Bandit Gang, and told Bai Shen about it.

Bai Shen naturally refused, and said: "You can handle this matter, and you can handle the invitation to this banquet by yourself, I have other things to do, so I won't interfere in this matter." ”

After that, Bai Shen left Zhang's mansion, and then Zhang Hanlin began to get busy, and began to prepare invitations tonight.

The night passed quickly.

Early the next morning, Bai Lingxuan came to Zhang Hanlin and knew that Zhang Hanlin was busy writing invitations, so he volunteered to polish his ink and help Zhang Hanlin on the side.

It wasn't until noon that Zhang Hanlin prepared all the invitations, and then he proofread with Bai Lingxuan to make sure that there were no omissions, so he sent people to send the invitations to the major families.

As for the invitation to the Chechi clan, Zhang Hanlin found Uncle Shadow and asked him to help send it to Chiba City.

The shadow agreed, and disappeared with the invitation.

Zhang Hanlin and Bai Lingxuan had lunch in Zhang's mansion, and then the two rushed to the Tiandi Restaurant, at this moment the guests of the Tiandi Restaurant gradually left, and a group of guards were cleaning up the table.

Coming to the third floor, Zhang Hanlin and Bai Lingxuan found Zhou Buchang, told him about the banquet held at noon tomorrow, and handed over the guest list of the banquet to Zhou Buchang, so that he could look at the arrangement of seats.

Zhou Buchang took the list and glanced at it, and then set out to ask the restaurant guys to purchase ingredients and prepare for tomorrow's banquet.

Coming out of the third floor, I met Lele and others again, Zhang Hanlin and Bai Lingxuan were not in a hurry to go back today, so they came to the room on the fifth floor with Huanhuan and Lele, and chatted for a while.

From the mouths of Huanhuan and others, Zhang Hanlin and Bai Lingxuan knew that the Red Oriole Courtyard in the Black Rock Market had been demolished for more than ten days, and it was said that the owner of the Red Oriole Courtyard had disappeared the night more than ten days ago, and the prosperous Red Oriole Courtyard had also been smashed to pieces, and now the original status of the Red Oriole Courtyard was already a pile of ruins.

Until now, no one dared to approach the Red Oriole Courtyard, for fear of angering the people who secretly attacked the Red Oriole Courtyard.

It is said that many of the girls inside have fled back to the Borderlands, and most of them were sold here by the Horse Bandit Gang, just like Lele and the others. There are also girls living on the streets, living without clothes and without food.

Speaking of which, I was originally a little sad about Huanhuan and Lele, who were still a little happy about the ruins of the Red Oriole Courtyard.

For those poor girls living on the streets, a few girls have some sympathy, because if Zhang Hanlin hadn't rescued them, I'm afraid their fate would not be much better than those girls.

Zhang Hanlin knew that Shen Lie's disappearance and the destruction of Hongying Courtyard were the hands of the Che Chihua sect, but this kid was reckless and let those girls have nowhere to go but live on the streets.

When I see Che Chi Huazong tomorrow, I must clean him up well, Zhang Hanlin secretly decided.

"Zhang Gongzi, we still have one more thing to ask for. Huanhuan was a few people, and their eyes were full of pleading.

"You want me to help the girls who fled back to the Borderland and lived on the streets?" Zhang Hanlin guessed what several people were thinking.

"I'm sorry to trouble Mr. Zhang, I thank you on their behalf. Huanhuan bowed to Zhang Hanlin, and Xixi, Lele and others also followed suit.

"Brother Hanlin, just help them. Bai Lingxuan's heart softened, and she also begged.

Zhang Hanlin originally planned to help, but he was thinking about making a move after the banquet and the city meeting, but looking at the watery eyes of the girls in front of him, Zhang Hanlin had to agree: "Okay, good."

I'll send someone to deal with the matter when I get back later, and settle the girls by tonight. ”

"Ahh ”

"Thank you, Childe. ”

Zhang Hanlin waved his hand and said, "Don't thank you first, Miss Huanhuan, Miss Lele, I still have something for you to do." ”

"Zhang Gongzi, if there is anything we can help, just say. Huanhuan and the others smiled happily and hurriedly said.

"The shelter behind the Black Rock Bazaar has been built and is ready to move into, but it won't be covered for some night, so I need a few of you to go and buy some bedding later, and then spread the purchased futon in the attic room, so that the girls can stay there tonight. ”

"And a few of you should know Lin Fan, the owner of the Lin Casino, now that he is working under me, I will send him to assist you later. ”

"Okay, Mr. Zhang, this matter is on us. Huanhuan said with a smile.

After that, Zhang Hanlin took out five hundred taels of silver tickets, handed them to Miss Huanhuan, and asked her to watch the purchase, and then Zhang Hanlin told a few more people, and then left with Bai Lingxuan.

Out of the Tiandi Restaurant, the two came to Lin's Casino.

Lin Fan listened to Zhang Hanlin's words and was not running the Lin Casino, when Zhang Hanlin came to the Lin Casino with Bai Lingxuan, Lin Fan was leading a group of his subordinates to practice martial arts.

"Lin Fan. ”

Lin Fan's body was shocked, and when he turned around and saw Zhang Hanlin and the others, his face was happy, and he hurriedly asked the brothers to stop practicing martial arts and greet Zhang Hanlin and Bai Lingxuan.

"I've seen Son and Mrs. ”

As soon as Lin Fan spoke, a group of subordinates shouted, and Bai Lingxuan's face turned red after hearing this.

Zhang Hanlin waved his hand and said, "Don't be poor, have you received the invitation I sent this time?"

"Thanks to Childe, I received the invitation, and all the brothers were very happy when they learned the news. Lin Fan smiled all over his face.

"That's good, tomorrow I went to the banquet to eat and drink with my brothers, point, I may be a little busy tomorrow, I may not be able to take care of you, you should be clever yourself, don't treat yourself badly. Zhang Hanlin said with a smile.

"Thank you Childe for the reminder. Lin Fan and his subordinates said loudly.

"Okay, then there's a little thing, you take your brothers to help. ”

"Childe, please speak. ”

Zhang Hanlin said about the purchase of materials by Huanhuan and Lele girls, and then said: "You wait to go to Tiandi Restaurant to find Huanhuan and Lele, protect them, and then you will help move the purchased materials to the shelter." ”

"Yes, don't worry, Childe, we will do this well. Lin Fan hurriedly responded.

Zhang Hanlin suddenly thought of something again, and then said: "By the way, I will arrange some helpers for you later, you go to the Tiandi Restaurant and wait first, wait for the helpers I arranged, and you will protect Huanhuan, Lele girl and others together to purchase supplies." ”

"Okay. ”
