Chapter 5: Hu Weizhi County was promoted to Hu Weixian
When the two talked about all kinds of sensational things in Songshan Manor, Sun Dalei began to be full of worries about this duel between Wang Biao and Wu Shuang. As a good friend, of course, he didn't want to see Wang Biao take this risk, so he now wanted to persuade Wang Biao to cancel this duel plan.
He said: "Actually, there is no need for this, you have no grievances with him, so why take this risk." β
"The rivers and lakes are originally a place of adventure," Wang Biao said, "if you don't take risks, why should you be in the rivers and lakes!"
"That's true. Sun Dalei also sighed. I don't know why, after saying this, Sun Dalei suddenly wanted to drink some wine, and he suddenly said, "Grandma's care! Brother drink some bar!"
"No, thank you, big brother, for your kindness. Wang Biao said resolutely, "I won't drink a little before the duel." β
In this way, determination is fighting spirit. How determined a person is, how heroic his fighting spirit is.
Therefore, after listening to Wang Biao's words, Sun Dalei seemed to be full of confidence in him again, and his worries suddenly melted.
Sun Dalei laughed and said: "As a well-known Jianghu person, his decision will always be so thunderous, because, when a famous Jianghu person greets the glory of envy and praise, he also shoulders the responsibility and trust brought by this incomparably noble glory." Therefore, once your decision is made public, even if there is an abyss ahead, you will not hesitate to move forward. β
"Maybe it's a paradise ahead, and I don't know. Wang Biao smiled and said, "Self-confidence is the strongest strength, and I never doubt my fists." He raised his fists again and looked at his never-say-die fists with great relief.
He suddenly said: "But Songshan Manor is indeed full of masters!"
"There are also a lot of sake bags and rice bags. Sun Dalei said. "There are quite a few people, except for six knives, I don't take them seriously. β
Wang Biao asked, "How many people?"
"There are at least one or two hundred second- and third-rate people who have reached out their hands," said Sun Dalei, "and there are three other first-class chiefs, two of whom have been defeated by my iron head; β
"What's the name of the other one?"
"His surname is Du, and his name is Huixiong," said Sun Dalei, "and he is a closed disciple of Dukong of Shaolin Temple, and it is said that his light skills have been better than the blueβsurpassing the master." β
"Today, it is said that the light skill of the air is unique," Wang Biao said solemnly, "Then the light skill of his apprentice is not very terrifying!"
Sun Dalei nodded and said, "He is also one of Wang Million's favorite figures." β
Wang Biao also nodded, and he suddenly asked again: "I heard, this manor is still very big?"
"Yes. Sun Dalei said, "It covers an area of at least 400 acres, with no less than 50 large and small buildings, and there are three gates in the south, east, and west, and they are guarded by three chief managers with 50 strong thugs all year round." β
Wang Biao still nodded and said, "With such a strong guard, wouldn't even a bee want to fly in!"
"That's true. β
Wang Biao asked again: "With such a powerful armed lineup, why did Wang Million be defeated overnight? What is his third line of defense?"
"The third line of defense is self-defeating," Sun Dalei said, "and from the way his three chiefs are obedient to Wu Shuang's orders now, it is certain that they surrendered that night!"
"Butβlaugh. Wang Biao said with a sneer.
He suddenly asked again: "It is said that Wu Shuang came to Songshan Manor this time purely to hate the family feud twenty years ago. β
"That's right," said Sun Dalei, "that's what he said when I fought him just now. If what he says is true, then this thing is terrible?"
"That thing is terrible?"
"This matter between Wu Shuang and Wang Million. Sun Dalei said, "According to Wu Shuang's words, Wang Million is still his own uncle." If this is true, then the hatred between them is not very terrible. β
"It's true. β
"Oh, how do you know?" this time it was Sun Dalei's turn to be surprised.
Wang Biao said: "The shocking tragedy in Luoyan City 20 years ago shocked the rivers and lakes, and I am a prodigal son, so I often hear more stories and see more stories than others. β
Sun Dalei said in surprise: "But I have lived in Luoyan City for so many years, and I don't even know at all. β
"It's normal. Wang Biao said, "Many people are like this, living in the present, but ignoring the things of the present, and when one day, he hears from others that the strange thing happened to him, he will be shocked again!"
Sun Dalei nodded.
Wang Biao suddenly asked again: "Now your government in Luoyancheng is still derelict in its duties as before, ignoring the affairs of the common people, being confused, not thinking of making progress, and not doing anything?"
"You're asking the right person. Sun Dalei said, "I don't know how the old masters of the yamen used to be officials and manage affairs, but I know that Lu Zhixian, who took office the year before last, is a person who is not very capable and does his best to do things. β
"Oh, how can you see it?" Wang Biao asked intently, looking at him.
"Now the order in the city is much better than before, and there are fewer and fewer fights that need to be resolved by me," Sun Dalei said, "It's just not good at all!"
"What about that?"
"There are still many poor people. Sun Dalei said worriedly, "As long as you walk through this city, you will still see a few hungry and cold people, which shows that there is still suffering in our county." β
Wang Biao nodded and said, "It's much better than before." β
He suddenly asked again: "Did you have a magistrate named Hu Wei here before?"
"Oh! Sun Dalei sneered and said, "There is no official master who is more hated by the people than him!"
"How so. β
"Hmph! He wants to say that there is anyone else in Luoyan City who thanks him, and that is the prostitutes of all sizes in Luoyan City. Sun Dalei said indignantly, "In Luoyan City, he can't see the suffering of the common people, but he squeezes the oil and water of the common people cleanly." Have you heard a shameful story about him?"
"What's the story?"
"There was a famine that year, and the people were hungry and cold, so they all flocked to the city to beg for food. Sun Dalei said, "However, he embezzled all the money and goods allocated from the above into his own pocket, and pretended to set up ten cauldrons in front of the county yamen with great fanfare, and boiled a meal of gruel for the hungry victims every day; however, the poor people did not know that all the money and food they had saved their lives were withheld from the hands of this corrupt official." What is even more shameful is that while the common people are hungry and do not choose food, he sends people to the poor people's homes to look for those good-looking girls, buys them in large quantities at low prices, keeps the very good ones in his own house, and sells them at a high price to the brothels in the capital. Therefore, that year, the whole city was struggling to make a living, but he made a windfall. β
"Yes! Wang Biao said, "However, such a person has a prosperous official fortune, and now he has become a foreigner in the capital." β
"This is called the way of the world. Sun Dalei said indignantly, "If you have money, you have power, he has already saved enough money when he was a magistrate here; I think he can't buy anything in the world except for the position of emperor Lao'er, there is nothing in the world that he can't buy." Because what he has is money, he is now powerful again! In the future, his power will become bigger and bigger, and his money will become more and more. β
"I also heard that the bloody case of Wu Shuangjia back then was caused by his refusal to send troops to arrest him. β
"Then why didn't Wu Shuang go to him for revenge?"
"I think, maybe his current strength is not enough!" Wang Biao said, "Perhaps, he is reckoning with all his enemies step by step, one by one!"
