Chapter One Hundred and Nine
When it came to paying the bill after drinking, the shopkeeper refused to collect the cashier, saying that he was honoring the leader of the Haiyan Gang. also said that the son of Jinyi will come to Zhangzhou in the future, although he comes to eat and drink, good wine and good food, and delicious food are all you can eat, and you will not take a penny.
The shopkeeper also dragged Gu Yizhu aside, and he didn't know what he muttered. I saw Gu Yizhu nodding and smiling, and after leaving the restaurant with Tianxiao, he said on the road: "Helper, this shopkeeper Yao asked to join the gang, and I agreed." He was very happy and said that he would never be afraid of others eating and drinking for nothing in the future. β
When he arrived at Gu Yizhu's house, Tian Xiao shook out the brewing when he was drinking. "During the meal, I already said that the Haiyan Gang has set up five deputy gang leaders, who are in charge of affairs, law enforcement, territory expansion, salt transportation, and warehouse management.
The Fang Gang is in charge, the Gu Gang is in charge of salt transportation, the Zhao Gang is in charge of law enforcement, and the affairs of Frontier Expansion and Treasury Management are temporarily managed by your three deputy gang leaders. I think that Shizhou has a foundation, and the general altar can be placed there. It's just that I have to break the bill again. Zhao Shun hurriedly said: "If the helper talks like this, he won't treat me as a brother." The house is ready-made, even the main altar with the post station, and I will do it when I go back.
Seriously, here today, I came to hit the luck, I didn't expect you to really accept me, not only made me the deputy helper, but also set up the main altar at the door of my house, if this glory let my father know, then he will be blind to death. He sighed and said sadly: "I don't like to read since I was a child, I like to dance with knives and guns, learn from teachers, and be nosy. As a result, I offended a lot of people and even affected my three elder brothers. My father said that I was a rebel, so he divorced my mother who spoiled me, and kicked our mother and son out of the house. Within days, my dad died in a fit of rage. Master. Don't laugh when you say it, although I am a rich businessman, no one is willing to marry me, I am twenty-eight years old, and I have never tasted the taste of a woman, so my mother can only be anxious. β
Tianxiao didn't know that this Zhao Shun was acting, and he pinched his background to coax people, and he really couldn't laugh when he heard it at this time, and after sighing a few times in succession, he glanced at Hu Yanying. A sudden plan came to his heart, and he smiled: "Gang Master Zhao." There is no grass at the end of the world, but the time has not yet come. If marriage really comes, you won't be able to stop it then. By the way, like you said it when you were drinking. I want to find someone you can trust. Accompany your mother to the mountains and rivers. I have a man here. Not only is the person beautiful and good at kung fu, but also takes care of people. But what I'm afraid of is that after your mother meets her. I don't want to give up anymore, how can this be good. Zhao Shun smiled: "How can there be such a beautiful thing, don't make fun of me." Peony knew that Tianxiao was talking about Hu Yanying, and also felt that they were quite husband and wife, so he said to Zhao Shun: "You don't care if there is such a beautiful thing, you just have to answer what to do." Zhao Shun immediately patted his chest and said: "If there is really such a good thing, I will listen to the helper outside, and I will listen to her inside. β
Xuemei smiled: "What you say doesn't work. If you really break your promise, my brother will be reluctant to kill you. "This makes sense, it's really a waste of how to pick up a lady, so I can show it, I don't want gold and silver, just keys and books.
Zhao Shun was said to be in a hurry, so he asked Xuemei. "Then you say, how do I do you believe it?" Xuemei stretched out her hand and said solemnly: "You hand over the key now, go back and hand over the account book, then I will believe you." Zhao Shun nodded and smiled, "What's so difficult about this." It's just that the key is in my mother's hand, and I'll give it to her when the time comes. Speaking of this, Tianxiao said to Hu Yanying: "You and our brothers and sisters are like relatives. I originally wanted to wait for me to finish my errands and take you back to Dali, first to recognize my mother, and then find a good husband for you. But today, I think Gang Leader Zhao is quite okay. You also heard what he said just now, if you want, a few of us will be matchmakers, and on the day of the comeback of the Haiyan Gang, we will have a double happiness. Seeing Hu Yanying nodding shyly, Xuemei's words came again. β
Gang Master Zhao, don't be too proud, if you dare to let her suffer a little bit of wronging in the future, I will make you regret it. At this time, Zhao Shun was speechless except for smirking, and a group of brothers were so hot that each of them called Hu Yanying "sister-in-law" and buried his face in Peony's arms. Fang Xiang clapped his hands and said, "I encountered such a happy event, and I was addicted to alcohol again. Then he smiled at Gu Yizhu and said, "I know that you have hidden three urns of good wine, and if you don't drink it today, you will stay for a long time." Gu Yizhu smiled: "You say it's a wine that slanders me." He took out the three urns from the warehouse, and asked his brothers to kill chickens and sheep into the kitchen, and after being so busy for a while, everyone began to drink Zhao Shun and Hu Yanying's engagement wine, and it was indispensable to tease them with words.
After a few days of bustling in Zhangzhou Mansion, I saw that everything that should be done was done, and what was supposed to be obtained was obtained, and the purpose of coming here was also achieved. Zhao Shun said goodbye to the gang leader and his wife, and Fang Xiang and Gu Yizhu, surrounded by a group of brothers, took his fiancΓ©e Hu Yanying and left.
Nothing to say all the way, back to Shizhou. Zhao Shun first took his future daughter-in-law Hu Yanying to meet his mother, greeted him, talked about his trip to Zhangzhou, and the trust of the son of Jinyi in him.
Zhao's mother heard that her son had become someone else's deputy helper, and brought back a virtuous daughter-in-law who was like a flower and jade, which was big enough, and she was very pleased, saying that she would set up a big banquet at home, and invited local officials, relatives and friends, and industry managers to introduce Hu Yanying to everyone. Zhao Shun's heart was naturally happy, so he let Hu Yanying stay in Zhao's mansion, and he had his own maid to take care of him every day, and he was happy to make Zhao's mother smile all day long.
As long as a lot of money is smashed, Zhao Shun doesn't have to worry about anything, he handed over everything to the brothers and handled it carefully, entrusted the family affairs to Hu Yanying, and rushed to Xi'an to see the Supreme by himself.
Zhao Shun told him about the Haiyan Gang, and Long Xiao immediately said happily: "I bought a deputy gang leader for 30,000 taels of silver, and I also picked up a daughter-in-law for nothing, this transaction is cost-effective." It's a good deal. It's a good deal. Zhao Shun asked: "Supreme, what will the subordinates do in the future?" Long Xiao smiled: "I'll give you the silver." After you go back, first do a good job of the main altar and post station of the Haiyan Gang, make it more luxurious and magnificent, and make the brocade boy happy, then the future will be easy to do.
In the next step, you can use the addition of branches as a name for more brothers in the Heavenly Demon Society's network for future troubles. If you think about it, the main altar is set up behind Shizhou. That Haiyan Gang is tantamount to doing things under your nose, and the brocade-clothed boy can't hide anything. And there are stones on the Longqing side, three of them entered the Ouchi guards, seven became the Imperial Forest Army, and forty-eight entered the Huwei camp. Hey, I'm not anxious, I'm also patient, I always have a way to let the brothers of the Heavenly Demon Society become the generals of Longqing one by one, and let the boy in brocade raise troops for my Heavenly Demon Society. β
Zhao Shun was happy when he heard this, and hurriedly responded: "The subordinates obey the order." Supreme. Is there something else that my subordinates don't know whether to say or not?" Long Xiao was stunned when he heard this. "What's the matter?" Zhao said by the way, "Supreme." In Zhangzhou, my subordinates also met one of your daughters. I heard the boy in brocade say that your daughter is his daughter-in-law, and the two are very close. Also lived in a side room. There shouldn't be a fake. The subordinates can see it. The boy in brocade is very fond of your daughter and obeys her words. "Long Xiao has too many daughters, and all of them are stunners. "My daughter? What's it called?" Zhao Shun said, "Jade Rakshasa ." β
Long Xiao nodded, and couldn't help but say happily in his heart: "Originally, the jasper was broken, I thought this princess was gone." It's good now, there is this jade rakshasa ghost girl sticking to the little prince, and the identity of Longqing Niangniang is there. There is a jade rakshasa in the harem, and there are stones in the important ministers of the court, so this half of the palace in Longqing has basically fallen into my hands. Hey, if the ghost girl can give birth to a prince again, it will be the prince of Longqing. That's great. That's great. Thinking of this, he said to Zhao Shun: "You do a good job, you have to do a good job to satisfy the boy in brocade and be happy." At that time, I will let this ghost girl blow the pillow wind in the ears of the boy in brocade, and let him make you the first deputy leader of the Haiyan Gang. Zhao Shun understood, so he took the silver ticket, said goodbye to Long Xiao, and left Xi'an.
Back in Shizhou, after Zhao Shun was busy for two days, local officials, relatives and friends, and industry managers came one after another and set up a feast in their compound, saying that they were drinking Zhao Shun and Hu Yanying's engagement wine. Mother Zhao took out the account book and key of the Zhao family that had been prepared and handed them to Hu Yanying in public, and happily held her hand and said to the guests: "Who said that my son is not promising." Let's just talk about my daughter-in-law who has not passed the door, this person is beautiful and virtuous, and she can also do kung fu.
A few days ago, she also helped the city catch a flower thief, and the prefect can testify. I think that in this Shizhou city, which girl can compare with her. As soon as his mother's praise fell, Zhao Shun got up and said with a smile: "The Zhao family will be presided over by Hu Yanying in the future, and whoever has something will consult with her, and my mother and I will no longer take care of all the affairs in the house." My mother should enjoy Qingfu, I want to be busy with the Haiyan Gang, please help everyone here, I thank Zhao Shun. β
Since then, Zhao Shun has been busy with the construction of the Haiyan Gang's main altar and post station, recruiting gangsters in the four towns and eight neighborhoods, and even Kuizhou, Jingzhou, Yongshun, and Chongqing have left his footprints, and there are twenty or thirty good players in the rivers and lakes alone. And Zhao's mother took Yahuan to accompany Hu Yanying happily all day long to familiarize herself with the Zhao family's industries everywhere, and her relatives and friends scattered everywhere visited local officials, and all kinds of business from the south to the north were not listed.
Over there, Tianxiao made an appointment with Zhao Yue, the former hall master of the Golden Dragon Hall of the Haiyan Gang, and after Lei Chuang, the hall master of the Black Dragon Gang, this Golden Dragon Hall is still the Golden Dragon Hall of the Haiyan Gang, and the Black Dragon Hall is still the Black Dragon Hall of the Haiyan Gang, and the two of them are still their own hall masters, but they just tell them to bring their brothers well, don't break the new rules of the Haiyan Gang.
Then arranged by Fang Xiang, Tianxiao successively met with some Jianghu figures, local tycoons, and local officials who wanted to join the Haiyan Gang, and gave them corresponding positions according to their respective skills and forces.
Then he took two deputy gang leaders, five hall masters, ten deputy hall masters, and a hundred or ten followers, and his daughter-in-law and sister-in-law all the way from Zhangzhou to find those Jianghu characters who had bullied Fang Xiang and Gu Yizhu. Others heard that the person who came was the brocade boy who only needed one move to kill the master, who would be stupid enough to send his small life to the hands of death, so he subdued twenty-four shares of people one after another, and added two branches at the site and served as the hall master.
After being busy for more than half a year, the Haiyan Gang finally had a look and re-established its prestige in the rivers and lakes.
On the next day, Tianxiao took all the hall masters in the gang to Shizhou and broke into the newly renovated Haiyan Gang General Altar. Zhao Shun was drinking and laughing with the 32 Jianghu characters who had just joined the gang in his restaurant. Hearing the report from the apprentice that the helper had arrived in Shizhou and was at the main altar, he was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly instructed the shopkeeper not to pick up any more guests, and then sent a brother to the mansion to tell the old lady and Mrs., saying that the helper would arrive at any time and prepare a family banquet. Then rushed to the main altar with everyone, and Tianxiao boasted when he saw it. "Okay, you Zhao Gang Master, arrange the main altar like a Jinluan Palace, and my tiger skin chair alone will soon catch up with the dragon chair. How much money did you kid cost, don't accompany all your family inside, so that the bride will follow you to drink the northwest wind before you pass the door. Everyone laughed and pushed Tianxiao to sit on the tiger skin chair.
Tian Xiao was not polite, holding the jade rakshasa with a gun, stepping on the seven-step staircase decorated with gold leaf and sitting on the tiger skin chair, pointing to the fifty chairs on the left and right sides below and laughing: "You Zhao gang leader boast that you are a rough man, but no matter what I think, you are not rough." Five deputy helpers, fifteen hall masters, thirty deputy hall masters, fifty chairs are no more and no less, where do you say you are rough? Zhao Shun hurriedly said: "Gang leader, that was reminded by my mother." Tian Xiao smiled and beckoned everyone to sit down at will. Zhao Shun introduced the thirty-two people who had just joined the gang, and took the opportunity to build yì and said: "Gang leader, Shizhou is the main altar of the Haiyan Gang, and there is only one Qinglong Hall, and I am afraid that the strong enemy will not be able to protect the main altar when it comes to attack."
I thought that I could set up four more halls in Kuizhou, Jingzhou, Yongshun and Chongqing, which were not only the gateway to the main altar, but also could help in time to ensure that the general altar was foolproof. Tian Xiao didn't know that this was Long Xiao's ghost idea, he only thought that this was Zhao Shun being careful, thinking about Haiyan everywhere, and really having a little strategy, which was naturally very happy in his heart, when he said: "This idea is very good, then you Zhao Gang Master will go to these four cities to choose a site and set up a hall, and the hall master and deputy hall master will also be handed over to you to decide." β
These words hit Zhao Shun's heart, and it can be said that he was very surprised, and the five thousand brothers and eighteen masters newly recruited by the Demon Society that day also had a place to stay. immediately thanked the helper for his trust, and then took everyone to see the post station. Then I went to drink wine and celebrate the rapid change of the Haiyan Gang.
Hearing that Tianxiao's family arrived in Shizhou, Hu Yanying was happy with tears, Zhao's mother was also happy, and the people of Zhao's house cleaned the yard and were busy with the dinner. It was busy until dusk, and another brother came to report to the old lady and his wife, saying that the old man and the helper and his wife were walking home with their sisters, and the deputy helpers and the hall master were so drunk that they went to the post station to rest. When Hu Yanying and Zhao's mother heard this, they hurriedly called Yahuan's subordinates to the gate of the house to greet them, and the neighbors also gathered to join in the excitement.
After waiting for a while, Hu Yanying saw Tianxiao from a distance and hurriedly pointed it to Zhao's mother. "Look, mother, that boy in a white shirt is my young master. Mother Zhao saw that it was a young brother who was just over twenty years old, so she was surprised and said: "It's really strange that you can convince my son at such an age." Hu Yanying smiled and said to Zhao's mother: "Mother, don't look at him young, but where can he go, it is difficult to find an opponent who can fight with him on the rivers and lakes." Mother, he is the Emperor Longqing I am talking about. When Mother Zhao heard that it was Emperor Longqing who had arrived, she was really surprised and delighted, and she felt that her heart was beating faster.
At this time, Tianxiao had arrived at the gate of Zhao Courtyard, and when they met, they called affectionately: "Mother." Hearing this, Zhao's mother suddenly burst into tears, waved her hand at Yahuan's subordinates and said, "Don't follow anyone." Then he held Tianxiao with his left hand, and led the jade rakshasa with his right hand, and walked straight to the house. Zhao Shun was a little strange when he saw it, and thought to himself that what was wrong with his mother, so he hurriedly followed. Hu Yanying and the Peony sisters met again, hugged each other with tears and laughter, and then entered the house laughing, so happy.
said that Zhao's mother arrived in the hall, invited Tianxiao and his wife to a seat, and knelt down to worship. "The grass people have seen Emperor Longqing. Hooray, hooray, hooray. I've seen the mother, Chitose, Chitose, Chitose. Tianxiao knew that Hu Yanying had revealed her bottom, so she hurriedly left her seat and helped Zhao's mother with both hands to invite her to take a seat, and said to Zhao Shun, who was stunned: "Yes, I am Zhu Tianxiao, the Emperor of Longqing, and Emperor Daming Shenzong is my brother." But we are enemies, and I have taken his city and captured his commander. But your mother and son can know about it, and don't leak it. Seeing Hu Yanying and them entering the hall, he said: "Gang Master Zhao, for the convenience of laughing, we don't need others to serve tonight, how happy it is." The mother and son of the Zhao family agreed, and everyone sat down at will to chat and narrate, unrestrained, just like family.
When it was time to hold the lamp, Hu Yanying asked his subordinates to bring wine and food and then admonished: "Close the door of the house, you go back to the house to rest, no one will be seen tonight." After the Yahuan people left one after another, the seven people sat down around the table, whatever they wanted to eat, they did not discourage alcohol, they only talked about family life, and chatted very happily.
