"Great monk, great monk!" Ah Fei couldn't help but stand up and waved at the unwise monk and shouted. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info The people who were waiting on the shore, in addition to the unwise monks, also Sun Bao and a few water gang brothers, they saw that Ah Fei was waving, so they also shouted and signaled to Ah Fei and the little bell.

The boat soon docked, and Ah Fei rushed off the boat with an arrow. The unwise monk also strode up to meet him, patted Ah Fei's shoulder, and said in his bell-like voice: "Ah Fei, I didn't expect to really see you here, I haven't seen you for a few years, I've grown a lot taller, but unfortunately I'm still not tall!"

"Great monk, what do you say, if everyone is as tall as you, then can you still look at it? You have grown too tall, like a monster. Little Bell jumped off the boat and said, "We moved from Tanzhou, and we didn't tell you, how did you find Junshan?"

"Hahaha, the matter of the eldest brother of the Zhao family becoming the old leader of the Thirteen Water Gang has long been spread in the rivers and lakes, and of course I know about it, so I didn't go to Tanzhou, but went directly here. The big monk touched his bald head and said, "I also heard that you are about to marry Ah Fei, which is really gratifying!"

Sun Bao smiled when he heard this: "Then the unwise master came this time, shouldn't he drink the wedding wine of Brother Ah Fei and our eldest sister before leaving?"

The unwise monk nodded again and again: "Of course, of course, knowing that my good friend is going to get married, how can I leave as soon as I go, I must have joined in the excitement and then left!

Ah Fei smiled and said: "Great monk, you better leave early, you eat too much, we can't afford to entertain you." Or...... Otherwise, on the day we get married, we will only give you food and wine, but we won't give you food or anything, you can eat the amount of several people alone, it's really too much, too much. ”

When the unwise monk heard that he didn't give him a wedding banquet, he hurriedly said: "Where do I eat too much, little bell, do you think so too?"

"Well, I think so, too. Little Bell nodded.

When everyone heard this, they all burst into laughter. The unwise monk felt angry and funny, scratched his ears and cheeks, and said, "Ah, you two, this ...... This is not yet the church, it is already ...... It's really annoying that husband and wife are already singing!"

Ah Fei and Little Bell looked at each other and smiled, although they were speechless, they were both very happy.

That night, Zhao Jiashui helped the brothers to hold a banquet on Jun Mountain and gather for a drink. Because it was the first New Year after Zhao Yong took possession of Junshan, everyone was in high spirits, and they waited until the end of the time before they gradually dispersed. Ah Fei and the unwise monk hadn't seen each other for many years, and they had a lot to talk about, so they set up a table in the guest room and drank until dawn. During the conversation, Ah Fei learned that after Baiyun Peak said goodbye that year, the unwise monk returned to Jinghu in order to investigate the Han Ze who would make the corpse poison palm, and made an agreement with the brothers of the Zhao Jiashui Gang to meet in the first month of the year every year. Later, the unwise monk returned to Jiangnan and learned that Han Ze was dead, so he dispelled the idea of investigating him, and instead traveled around the rivers and lakes. Over the years, he has traveled a lot of places, but every year in the first month of the year, he will return to Tanzhou to reunite with everyone, and he never misses the appointment. In her spare time, the unwise monk also taught the little bell martial arts and taught her some easy-to-learn and easy-to-practice kung fu of the Xiaoxiang school. This has come and gone, and it has been seven or eight years unconsciously.

On the second day, it was past noon, Ah Fei got up from the bed, and was called by Zhao Yong and others to drink, and it was only after a few days of indulgence that it came to an end. Ah Fei resigned with everyone and returned to Yuezhou City, while the unwise monk also temporarily lived in Ah Fei's house, planning to wait for Ah Fei to marry Xiao Bell before leaving.

On this day, Ah Fei and the unwise monk were competing in the front yard of their home, and they didn't want Zhao Yong to bring the three brothers Qiansun Li to Ah Fei's house. Ah Fei saw that Zhao Yong had arrived in person, and the little bell had not accompanied him, so he knew that these people had come to him to discuss something important, so he invited a few people into the guest hall and instructed the old servants at home to show tea to the guests.

"Big brother, you came to my house in a hurry, are you looking for me something?" Ah Fei moved a chair and sat next to Zhao Yong.

"Yes, I did have something to do with you. Zhao Yong said, then looked at the unwise monk who got up and wanted to leave, and said, "Please also ask the unwise master to stay and listen." ”

The unwise monk thought that Zhao Yong was talking to Ah Fei about a private matter, but when he saw Zhao Yong asking him to stay, he became curious and said, "Did the old dragon head encounter any difficulties?"

"Well, there is indeed one thing I would like to ask the master and brother-in-law to help with. Although he has not yet visited the church, Zhao Yong has already begun to call Ah Fei "brother-in-law".

"Please. "Ah Fei and the unwise monk are both Taoist.

Zhao Yong nodded and said, "I plan to reduce the amount of regular silver collected from various merchants, and I plan to change the monthly income to the annual income." I have talked to a few brothers about this matter, and I believe that the power of water transportation and fishing on both sides of Jinghu Lake is in the hands of my Dongting Thirteen Water Gang, and there is a large amount of gold and silver left over every year just by doing business, and there is no need to collect regular silver from various merchants. Moreover, after all, our Thirteen Water Gang is just a gang of rivers and lakes, and it is not the high-ranking official master, and collecting regular money from merchants will only cause dissatisfaction among the people and ruin the reputation of our Water Gang. Besides, if those merchants who are not doing well are already doing a bad job, if they have to pay us another sum of silver taels after paying taxes to the government, then how can their lives continue? ”

When the Dongting Thirteen Water Gang was first founded, its power was not as strong as it is today, and it was often beyond its means, so it mostly relied on force to collect cash from waterfront merchants to accumulate gang strength. With the gradual growth of the power of the Dongting Thirteen Water Gang and the fact that it became the largest gang in Jinghu and Jinghu North Roads, the income of the silver was no longer important to the Water Gang, and gradually showed its drawbacks. During the few years that Zhao Yong was in charge of Tanzhou, he had encountered several cases of merchants committing suicide because they could not pay the money and were afraid of retaliation by the water gang. If it weren't for the fact that Zhao Yong had a good personal relationship with the local officials in Tanzhou, I am afraid that many of their Zhao Jiashui Gang brothers would have been imprisoned.

In fact, among the water gangs under the jurisdiction of the Dongting Thirteen Water Gang, the Tanzhou Zhaojia Water Gang has the least restrictions on each merchant, as long as it is a merchant who does not want to pay the regular silver, after declaring in advance, it can be exempted, correspondingly, it is just that the Water Gang no longer takes care of its business, and there is no retaliation. But Rao, there are still conflicts between the merchants in Tanzhou and the water gang, so you can imagine what the situation will be like in other places. Zhao Yong was worried that the adverse effects of this silver incident would endanger the status of the Dongting Thirteen Water Gang in the rivers and lakes, and even made others think that the Thirteen Water Gang and the notorious Wan Yingtang were the same dog, so after he took office and became the leader of the Zhushui Gang, he wanted to solve the problem of the silver first.

"Amitabha, good and good, the old dragon head can have such a charitable heart, it is really immeasurable. When the unwise monk heard that Zhao Yong was going to do this good deed, he clasped his hands together and said, "Since it is not a chivalrous thing, then why do you have to do anything to collect it, wouldn't it be better not to collect the silver?"

When Sun Bao on the side heard this, he smiled and said: "The master doesn't know, our Thirteen Water Gang collects regular silver from merchants, and it has been since the founding of our gang, and it has been at least a hundred years now, and it has long been a practice. Therefore, if it is easily abolished, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among some of the leaders in the gang, and the position of the old leaders will be unfavorable. Although this change is not complete, it is planned to change the monthly income of previous years into annual income, and reduce the amount, and only collect dozens or hundreds of copper plates from each household as its entry fee, and then we will use this money to do something beneficial to the merchants, and I think it will also be beneficial to the merchants. ”

"Hmm. The unwise monk nodded and said, "What Third Brother Sun said, I can understand that since it is not easy to abolish it, it is still necessary to do it step by step, and it should be more beneficial to wait until the time is ripe in the future to abolish it." ”

Ah Fei didn't care whether this case of silver should be abolished or not, but he just wanted to know why Zhao Yong came to his house because of the case of silver, so he said: "Big brother, since you have become the old leader of the Water Gang, who dares not to listen to a word?

Zhao Yong laughed and said: "Brother-in-law, you think too much about me, the old dragon head! We are not the emperor Lao Tzu, how can we have such a big face, and saying a word will become a holy decree? If this matter is to be implemented, we still have to rely on the support of the big and small dragon heads below, otherwise I have no choice but to sit in the dragon head hall and get angry." However, reducing the amount of money is equivalent to cutting a lot of income from the water gangs in various places, which is not a good thing for those faucets, so it is really difficult to ask them to implement it according to my wishes. ”

"Then isn't there no way to say that?" Ah Fei couldn't help frowning when he heard Zhao Yong's words, only to realize that he was the master of the sect, and he was not as carefree as others said, and he still had troubles and troubles.

Zhao Yongdao: "Of course there is a way, if you want them to do what you say, you have to let them completely obey you, afraid of you." I've just become an old leader, and I have to do something to stand up in front of everyone so that they can convince me. ”

"Liwei, Second Brother Qian beheaded Tan Daozhong at the leading meeting, isn't it Liwei?" Ah Feishi didn't know what else Zhao Yong would do.

"What is it to kill a little Tan Daozhong? There are many people in the gang who look down on Tan Daozhong, and killing him cannot be regarded as prestige. Zhao Yongdao, "If you want to say that in today's world, what really makes everyone in the Thirteen Waters Gang feel a headache is Wang Hengjiang in Jiangling Mansion and Wan Yingtang behind him. If I can kill Wang Hengjiang, drive Wan Yingtang's forces out of Jinghu Martial Arts, and restore the sphere of influence of the Thirteen Water Gang when my father was alive, then my power will stand in front of everyone. ”

Ah Fei suddenly understood: "Then the eldest brother's plan is to ask me and the great monk to help you expel Wan Yingtang?"

"Yes, that's what it means. Zhao Yong nodded and said, "It's all my own people, and I don't beat around the bush, I don't know if you are willing to help me?"

"What is the eldest brother talking about, this favor, of course I have to help!" Ah Fei responded, looked at the unwise monk again, and asked, "Great monk, what about you?"

The unwise monk said: "I heard that Wan Yingtang has done a lot of injustice and is evil everywhere, if you can fight them, of course it is a good thing, so this thing is also considered one of me." ”

Ah Fei thought that Wang Hengjiang was strong in martial arts, and he was probably not an opponent on his own, but if he added an unwise monk, it should not be a problem to defeat Wang Hengjiang, so he stroked his palm and said: "Great, big brother, when are you going to do it?"

Zhao Yongdao: "Don't worry, don't worry, I just have a plan for the time being." When I first arrived in Junshan, there were still a lot of things to deal with, and if I wanted to do it, I had to wait until half a year later. ”

"Then I'll live in Yuezhou for the next few months. The unwise monk knew that Zhao Yong had raised this matter so early because he was afraid that he would leave Yuezhou ahead of schedule, so he said something.

"Very good, very good, with the help of the master, it is like adding a hundred manpower!" Zhao Yong said with a smile, "Then the next important thing is the marriage of Ah Fei and my sister-in-law." ”

When Ah Fei heard this, thinking that the day was approaching, he smiled so much that he couldn't even see his eyes, and it turned into two slits.

In February, Ah Fei and Little Bell got married as promised, and then Little Bell lived in Ah Fei's house, and the unwise monk went to live in Junshan Zhao Yong in order not to disturb the newlywed Yan'er. The days passed plainly, and in addition to practicing every day, Ah Fei was grinding with the little bell's ears and temples, which was very comfortable, and even the search for the white tiger's revenge was gradually forgotten.

Soon, Little Bell became pregnant. Seeing that Little Bell's belly was getting bigger day by day and it became difficult to walk, Ah Fei bought a few more servants to add to the house, and asked a maid named Dongyue to take care of Little Bell's daily life. Everyone was waiting for the birth of the fetus in the womb of the little bell, and the unwise monk even made an agreement with Ah Fei early to accept this unborn child as an apprentice.

But at this time, Zhao Yong decided to make a move on Wan Yingtang.

Little Bell also knew Zhao Yong's plan, so when she saw Zhao Yong coming to the house with the unwise monk and others, she couldn't help but be a little scared, and asked her brother with a displeased face: "If you want to make a contribution, do you have to drag Ah Fei with you? This is about to end the year, what are you going out to toss around?"

Zhao Yong knew that his sister was afraid that Ah Fei was in danger, but without Ah Fei's help, he was afraid that he would not be able to defeat Wang Hengjiang, and when he was in a dilemma, he heard Ah Fei say to the little bell: "Don't talk like this, the matter of the eldest brother is the matter of our family, how can I sit idly by?"

"But......," the little bell said and stopped.

Ah Fei stroked the little bell's bulging abdomen and said, "It's okay, I'll go back with my eldest brother and them, nothing will happen, you and the child will wait for me at home." ”

"Say yes, go and go back, don't deceive people. "When the child is born, you must be at home." ”

"Of course, no lie. Ah Fei smiled, and said to Dongyue, who was holding the little bell on the side: "Take care of Madame, in a while, the child will be born soon, don't make any mistakes." ”

"Don't worry, sir. Winter Moon responded.

"Good. Ah Fei smiled and followed Zhao Yong out.
