Chapter 52: Pansi Cave Master
This trip was procured by the imperial court, although it was subcontracted several times, but the customs clearance documents were relatively complete. In terms of rivers and lakes, our dart bureau found the first dart master in the capital, Song Yidao, to make a guarantee.
Old man Song is the god-like existence of the dart master in the capital, although he has washed his hands in a golden basin, but many times he will still help the major dart bureaus to mediate some disputes, with the military department documents, Song old man as a guarantee, we are basically worry-free this dart.
We have more than 30 people in the dart team, Yu Qianqian is a seven-rank master, and two dart masters temporarily seconded from other dart teams are also seven-pin, and the rest are eight-rank and ninth-grade masters.
Yu Qianqian is the first time to travel Shandong darts, all the way down to visit the major gangs, during the day to take the official road, at night to live in the post station, the road is relatively peaceful, so the dart is relatively slow. In fact, in addition to some dark darts, the dart game will not pick a remote road. When you go out, you are looking for money, and you are paying attention to stability, and only those who want to get out of the way and smuggle goods will pick a small road dart. Small road darts, the benefits are large, the risk is also large, many rivers and lakes green forests are fancy this, will occupy the mountain as the king, specifically rob this kind of small dart game.
Six days later, the dart team arrived at Baigutun, and Yu Qianqian said that there were a few brothers who had traveled together before, and ordered everyone to camp at Ma Mingyi to rest. Ma Mingyi is on the side of Baigutun Road, which is a very small post station with only a dozen rooms. The post officer is an old man named Ma Yun, who turned out to be an old soldier of the Hebei Military Region, who was injured in the battle between the imperial court and the three departments of Duoyan, and his left leg was a little lame. I also had dealings with Jack Ma when I was darts in the past, and after setting up the carriage, I chatted with Jack Ma.
Ma Yun asked why he didn't see Yang Sandang, and promised to come to me again for a drink last time. I said that Yang Sandang has retired. Ma Yun smiled, in the name of the Heaven and Earth Society, the prince of Qi kneaded the heroes of the rivers and lakes of Hebei and Shandong Road like dough, and the rivers and lakes were too peaceful. However, within a few days, there are some soldiers who have passed by, bandits are like combs, soldiers are like grates, and officials are like shavings.
Liu Qingfeng came to me and said that Yu Qian was going to take us to visit his brother in Baigutun. Yuqian is the nickname given to Yu Qianqian by Liu Qingfeng, of course, he still has to call the leader in front of Yu Qianqian.
Yu Qianqian called me and Liu Qingfeng over, gave Liu Qingfeng ten dollars, and said that you two go and prepare some gifts, get two jars of good wine, fifty catties of green onions, two bags of white noodles, ten catties of beef, and you don't need to find the rest of the money, buy me two packs of China. Liu Qingfeng said Leader, I'm afraid this money is not enough?
Yu Qianqian said young man, the time has come to test your execution. If it were ten taels of silver, I would give it to a dog and it would buy me these things, and you have to use your imagination and creativity, and I am optimistic about you, so I will leave this matter to you both. Have you ever heard the story of a Jew who became a multimillionaire for a dollar? I quickly stopped and said, "Leader, we will do this for you."
The two came to the bazaar, and Liu Qingfeng said I don't have any money, Brother Sanguan, you can help pay it first. I'll give it to you when I'm reimbursed. I expected him to do this, so I deliberately didn't bring my wallet, and sometimes I admire the wit, haha.
There was no way, Liu Qingfeng scraped together enough two taels of silver from three pockets, went to pay, specially bought two more packs of cigarettes, and asked the merchant to issue an invoice for five taels. The two hired a car and joined Yu Qianqian, Liu Qingfeng hurriedly handed over the cigarette, and the leader smoked. The leader said, what about the invoice? Liu Qingfeng obediently took it out, and Yu Qianqian said I'll keep it first, you kid is careless, maybe you will lose it one day.
Liu Qingfeng pushed the car and walked three or four miles of mountain roads, and finally came to Yu Qianqian's so-called buddy territory, Pansi Cave. Zhao Wouji, the owner of Pansi Cave, is slightly famous in the rivers and lakes, but it is only limited to Hebei and Shandong Wulin, and there are thirty or forty people under Zhao Wouji, who are also engaged in the business of robbing houses and houses.
We are all over the world, mainly dealing with the government and these gangs. All gangs in the rivers and lakes, with a little strength, will either monopolize some of the main local industries, oil, salt, tea and iron, or belong to the four great families, relying on the shade for transportation, shipping and other businesses, or get some fields from the imperial court to rent and operate, and the last is such as Pansidong, a gang that occupies the mountain and robs houses. After all, robbery is a kind of business, there is a lot of randomness, and it is also divided into off-season and peak season, and luck also accounts for a large component. Therefore, Pansi Cave takes the route of elite soldiers, the number of people is small, but the martial arts are strong, they are some sixth, seventh-grade masters, and there are three or four sub-cave masters.
Zao Wou-Ki himself is also a master of the six grades, and on weekdays, these people go their own way, once they have a business, send a minion to summon several other cave masters to work together.
There were two minions outside the Pansi Cave, and when they saw us, they hurriedly stopped, who dared to trespass into the Pansi Cave? Yu Qianqian stepped forward and said, I am Yu Qianqian, the Central Plains Dart Bureau, passing through your land, and specially came to visit the master of Zhao Dong.
