018 Return to Guangde
It took Xiao Letian half an hour to completely convince the suspicious third master of Qing. Xiao Letian said it very well. He compressed the number of bandits on the Taihang Mountains to less than 200, and even put them on a sad life experience like Water Margin.
"Those are all a group of green forest heroes who have been persecuted by the government. How could they become bandits if they had no food to eat? As for those archers and crossbows, you also know that there are too many weapons like Changmao in the south that have flowed into the people. As long as you are determined to save up one or two hundred sets, it is a piece of cake..."
"More importantly, they only have more than one hundred people. What else can they do besides making a living? Don't think too terrible about those people. I have decided to go back to Tianjin to open a foreign business and do some small business with foreigners. You also know that this foreigner is not easy to deal with. Brother, I don't have any tough roles in my hands, so I can't let foreigners eat all my bones..."
After spending a long time, Xiao Letian finally brought out all his killer moves. "Mr. Qing San, even if you don't listen to anything else, you have to consider the face of the emperor and the two empress dowagers, right?"
Fuqing was stunned at that time, "What did you say? The emperor's face! And the empress dowager's face?"
"Isn't this nonsense? You should know that after Nanjing City was captured in July, the emperor and the empress dowager held a banquet to celebrate. Not only did they invite all the officials in the court, but they even invited all the foreigners from Dongjiaomin Lane. They were very happy. Now it's the end of the year, it is said that Zeng Guofan will return to Beijing to give the emperor the above position. On such a happy day, man, do you have to stuff a rat shit?"
One word reminds me of the dreamer. After all, Master Qing San is a bannerman and has a very clear understanding of the twists and turns in the court. Now it’s almost the Chinese New Year, and I’m desperate to suppress the bandits. Isn’t this aggravation to the emperor and the empress dowager?
"Oh, I'm confused, no wonder that guy Lian Er never sent troops. It turns out that the root of it is here? People are thinking about the face of the court! If I make things worse, how can the emperor and the queen mother be so upset?" Master Qing San beat his chest and stamped his feet in annoyance.
At this time, Xiao Letian was still ringing the gong. "That's right, if foreigners hear about it, even the Qing Dynasty cannot protect the land of Xiling, and bandits have been unearthed, so why don't we laugh at us? We can't lose the face of the Qing Dynasty... Also, I promise you that it's almost the late spring before the Spring Festival, and I will move to Sijiu City to live. At that time, you can see me with your own eyes and see if I will let these brothers rebel?"
Xiao Letian broke it apart, smashed it and said over and over again, and finally dispelled the doubts in Master Qing San's heart. The first update was that the third master looked at Xiao Letian hesitantly, "You really want to open a foreign company? Is it really just to let them be bodyguards of the foreign company?"
"Oh, my third master, then, you have a certain part of the foreign company. Wouldn't it be okay to let you watch it every day?" Now, Master Qing San was finally relieved. He patted the earth on his body and yelled, "Come on, prepare for the lunch banquet, I'll stop drunk..."
At this moment, a low voice came from outside the door of the wing room, "Young Master, the general manager has dispatched troops to the city again. This time, he actually surrounded the Guangde. It seems that he is going to attack Manager Fan Jian..."
"Damn, this old pervert is really going to attack Hu Niu. This girl is so pitiful..." Master Qingsan shook his head angrily.
Xiao Letian looked at Fu Qing with a strange look and suddenly asked, "You are just feeling sad? You don't help me. Do you don't care about this kind of friendship?"
"I, I... what can I do? My uncle is the master of the government and has a mediation and hired him, so it's not illegal. I got involved and what did I say..."
"Fuck! Hu Niu is the woman I like. If anyone dares to steal me, he will fight with him. You are updated as soon as possible, Fu Qing, you don't think about it. If Hu Niu and an old man who is about to fall into the ground, you will turn a blind eye and watch it?" Xiao Letian had all the good mood he had just accumulated, and his saliva sprayed on Fu Qing's face.
Fu Qing has now blushed, and he found that his thinking is a little unsatisfied with Xiao Letian. Could it be that foreigners think about the problem this way? Why is it completely different from the people in the Qing Dynasty?
Their father didn't even swear, so why did we outsiders interfere? Besides, Hu Niu is the daughter born to a concubine after all, and her status in a big family is actually a little higher than that of the housekeeper. Many times, such a daughter is no different from being a girl at home. Even if she is married, she will have some marriages for the benefit of the family.
Not to mention marrying an old man in his sixties, it is common to marry a dead man to a ghost marriage. What's so uneasy about this? Why is Xiao Letian so angry? Could it be that he is really serious about Hu Niu?
"Calm down, brother, calm down. It doesn't matter if you scold me, don't really go to other people's houses to make trouble! If Hu Niu's reputation is ruined, the little girl will really not be able to survive..."
"Damn..." Xiao Letian was completely speechless. He was defeated by the ancients' thinking. As I helped Hu Niu break free from feudal shackles, it became a sin. He was too lazy to talk nonsense to Fu Qing and grabbed his arm and said, "I don't care. Hu Niu is my woman in her life. No one can stop the two of them from being in love. More and faster chapters are invited. At worst, I won't write books anymore, and I won't start a foreign business anymore. I will learn to make trouble in Jiangzhou City by flooding Liangshan..."
"Oh brother, your temper is a firecracker? Why do you break it if you say it's broken? Come back..." Master Qing San pulled Xiao Letian tightly and patted his chest to ensure that "This matter is with me, isn't it okay for me? But brother, please tell me the truth. Are you and Hu Niu playing? Don't shave your head and pick it up and it's hot..."
Xiao Letian smiled and said, "Tell me the truth, even Hu Niu's father will not object now. Do you think it's hot on one end or both!"
Master Qing San was completely defeated by Xiao Letian. He thought it was OK. After spending so many days together in the mountains, he could steal Hu Niu's heart. This owner who has eaten foreign beef is different from us. Updated at the first time
If there is a person in Yi County who is not afraid of Master Lian, then it must be Fuqing. Although Fuqing is still under Master Lian at a young age, he is a nobleman of Zhenggener's yellow flag, and he attacked the title of the fifth-rank Yunqiwei as soon as he fell into the grass. Although his family is not as good as before, as long as he put down his face, he will be a big family who can get in touch with the prince.
As for what Master Lian is, he is just a Han Chinese who had already raised his flag before entering the pass. He has been able to get to the position of the supervisor of Xiling by flattering and praising his qualifications. He is considered a stolen person to give him face, but he is nothing if he doesn't give him face.
"Stop and stop... Which car do you have? You don't have any eyes! The Guangde No. 1 will not do business today..." The black carriage that Master Qing San was riding was just approaching the street where the Guangde No. 1 was stopped by the guards at the entrance of the alley.
"Lai Pi Monkey blinds your dog's eyes. I dare to stop your Master Qing San's car..." With a snap, Fu Qing lifted the cotton curtain and stared at the guard with anger. Updated immediately.
"Oh... I'm paying respect to you, Master 3..." Lai Pihou's expression was like a change of face, and immediately became the most respectful and standardized process of saluting thousands in the city.
"Okay, okay, who made you block the door? Don't you know that Manager Fan is my friend?"
"Oh my third master, can we offend Manager Fan? This is the order of the second master Lian. You have to be pity for us jogging. Who can't listen to us? What do you say..."
Xiao Letian has seen the words of the Eight Banners of the Late Qing Dynasty. He gave a thousand tributes and a perfect smile that was so standard that you were impeccable. He was so respectful that he recalled the plot in the old version of "Teahouse". He really didn't expect that the old Beijingers were so kind to play with each other. Please come more and faster chapters.
However, the surface respect cannot hide the thorns in words. A few words can lay a hook for mutual fear in Fuqing and Master Lian Er's hearts, and the cleverness of using force to fight. Are you Master Qing San awesome? Then I will throw Master Lian Er's out and fight you two and exert your anger. You are not decent!
Xiao Letian was almost applauding Lai Pi Hou in his heart, thinking that if his deputy had such a clever mouth, he wouldn't have had to work so hard. But inadvertently, his eyes swept to the Chaos stall at the entrance of the alley and found that the Chaos Old Man had been so scared that he had kneeled on the ground. Moreover, when he looked at Lai Pi Hou, his eyes were full of horror. He had definitely been bullied a lot just now.
Alas! Flattering the superiors and bullying the subordinates, this is the real market situation in the late Qing Dynasty, Xiao Letian sighed secretly in his heart.
"Okay, don't play tricks with your third master. Go and settle the wonton account. People in the cold weather are all pitiful..." After saying that, a silver light flew past, and a total of six or seven cents of scattered silver flew into Lai Pihou's hands.
"Oh, Mr. Xie's reward..." Lai Pihou kept bowing to the black box car, and he was filled with joy. However, he looked back at the timid Chaos stall owner and threw the broken silver up and down with a cold face.
"Look, be careful not to pull it out when you see it! Even if you give it to you, can you find it?" The old man was so scared that he shook his head quickly.
Xiao Letian was a little angry with Fuqing in the carriage, "Just like this, do you still reward money? I dare to guarantee that he has to go to Lian Er to inform him if he turns back."
Fu Qing shook his head slightly with a bitter face, "Brother, how can I not know the little yellow dog treasure in their belly? I grew up with this group of people since I was a child... The silver I rewarded was actually just for a period of time to ban him. This little silver can at least be delayed for an hour before reporting. These grandchildren are smart."
No one stopped the black caravan this time, and they drove smoothly into the Guangde. Before Xiao Letian got off the car, ten men with bird guns and looked sad and angry, surrounded him and looked vigilantly at the four sides to protect Xiao Letian.
"Oh! You are Luo Huo, you are Chu Zhao, you are Lu Ying..." Xiao Letian's memory is great. He never forgets the ten musketeers trained overnight in the Mountain Temple and calls out all the names one by one.
These ten simple guys, as soon as they heard the master calling their names, were excited and burst into tears and lowered their voices and said, "Master, don't worry, we promise to protect you. If anyone dares to be disrespectful, we will shoot..." The tall man named Luo Huo also patted the bulging gunpowder bag on his body.
Xiao Letian didn't expect that he had been with them all night, and they were so respectful to him, and walked into the inner house like protecting his eyes. Along the way, Xiao Letian saw many old acquaintances in the caravan. The second shopkeepers beat Qianqian, kowtowed, and looked at the savior back with tears in his eyes.
Manager Liu from Guangde, Yi County and his men were stunned. They suddenly felt that the group of wilted eggplants were suddenly energetic today, especially the ten musketeers stared at them as if they were looking at dead people. They didn't know what murderous aura was, but they could feel that something bad was about to happen to them.
Fuqing and Xiao Letian walked into the inner house behind the business. Ten musketeers and a loyal friend of Fan Jian surrounded the study room of the inner house. Even a fly could not go in. Manager Liu was embarrassed and wanted to send some dried fruits, tea, etc., but Luo Huo and the others directly blocked it.
