Chapter 016 The road roared when he saw injustice
However, it was said that Xiao Tang had invited Cai Qing, a prison flower in the Daimyo's Mansion, to a banquet, and Cai Qing also promised to come down to inform Li Shaohua's manager to make peace, and the matter came to an end for the time being, and Xiao Yi was also rescued, but Xiao Tang's mood was already depressed and unhappy. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Xiao Tang had breakfast in the early morning, and after reading the book, he and Wu Song practiced martial arts in the school field, and the two just exchanged some fist block moves, Xiao Tang was a little distracted, but Wu let go of his hand and suddenly made a force, and a "cloud pushing hand" shot Xiao Tang a few meters.
Xiao Tang fell so hard that he struggled to stand up and grinned, "I said... Second Brother Wu... You want my little life?? ”
Wu Song was also stunned, and then said with some annoyance: "You are still impatient to fight, but I have indeed lost some sense of proportion in my hands, and I am in a depressed mood, so I unconsciously added a little strength." ”
Xiao Tang realized that Wu Song seemed to be in a much more irritable mood than him, so he asked with a smile: "What is it that annoys Second Brother Wu again, isn't it because of the domineering and domineering of the nine-headed worm?" Now that this matter can be concluded, why should Second Brother Wu be concerned? ”
Wu Song snorted heavily and said, "Where is this matter over?" That guy is still powerful, and others still swallow their anger to survive, but I can't beat those dog thieves and let out the bird spirit in my heart. ”
Wu Song's mood Xiao Tang understands very well, this Wu Erlang is originally a good fighter, jealous and hateful, but on the rivers and lakes, when he encounters those who rely on kung fu to bully the good, Wu Song can beat him. You are ruthless, I am more ruthless than you, your fists are hard, I am harder than your fists!
But for the nine-headed worm, who is unscrupulous with official authority, Wu Song has no way to do anything about it except to give up his future and assassinate him with only one ability. After all, whether it is the young master of the landlord's family in a market town like Xiao Tang, or a martial arts master with amazing karma like Wu Song, in the eyes of that nine-headed insect, they are just small people, and moving some connections to kill them is really like pinching a bed bug to death.
Even in the civilized society under the rule of law in later generations, it is not uncommon for officials to rely on their power to infringe on the rights and interests of the people, and even to the point of ruin, not to mention the current era of strict hierarchy and more arbitrary bureaucratic power?
Since Xiao Tang has survived in this world, he naturally knows that he has to act according to the rules of the game here, in fact, Wu Song does not understand this kind of truth, even if he sees injustice, Wu Song will not give up all his future to be the enemy of the whole country, but he has no chance to show his ability at this time, no wonder he Wu Song is not happy.
But this punch ..... Sensei practiced today, right? It was okay just now, but if Wu Song continued to be unhappy, he unconsciously used your strength to fight the tiger on Jingyang Gang.... Obediently, then I, Xiao Tang, may have to get a lunch box in advance in this world.
"Second Brother Wu, you and I are irritable today, so it's better to take advantage of the weather to find a place to eat a few bowls of bars." Xiao Tang suggested to Wu Song.
Wu Song thought about it, and said, "That's it!" Find a place to get a fucking drink! After that, he picked up two pots and prepared them aside, and after practicing martial arts every day, he rewarded him with his old wine path and walked out, Xiao Tang also called Xiao Yi and Xue Yong to follow Wu Song.
As soon as Xiao Tang and the others walked out of the Xiao Mansion not far away, they heard Xiao An shouting: "You dry birdmen, you have brought these stupid sheep to make our inn smell of sheep!" Still crying and begging to save a few dollars? Let me tell you, our Xiao Jiaji is not a place for your group of Lai Han to take advantage of, and the house money is not a penny, so get out of here after paying the money! ”
I saw Xiao An crossing his waist, his face raised high, pointing to a few businessmen who passed through Xiao Jiaji and scolding loudly, a forty or fifty-year-old led by those people, with a bitter face, kept pleading with Xiao An, and there was a teenager next to him, staring at Xiao An fiercely as if fire was spewing out in his eyes.
"What's going on?" Xiao Tang scolded Xiao An, Xiao An saw that it was Xiao Tang, and hurriedly trotted to Xiao Tang's eyes, nodded and said, "Yo, isn't it time for the young master to practice martial arts at this time?" This trivial matter of a dry pickled poor man, how can you bother with it, young master? ”
Wu Song was already depressed, and he couldn't get used to Xiao An's arrogant and domineering servant appearance, and he didn't care that Xiao An was Xiao Tang's person, so he pointed at him and scolded him: "You handful of birds, if you have something to say, it's good!" What kind of prestige do you play with some merchants? Grandpa and I are already unhappy in my heart, and if I listen to your nonsense and fart again, I will let you taste the taste of grandpa's fist! ”
Xiao An was afraid of Wu Song's fist, and his master was very polite and respectful to Wu Song, so he was scolded by Wu Song, and he could only confess to Wu Song with a bitter face.
Xiao Tang asked again: "Xiao An, what's the matter with you?" Why bother these businessmen? ”
Xiao An replied: "The young master learned that this dry bird man is a trader who often goes to the north to resell sheep and horses, and he used to pass through our market town, and they are all small businessmen who don't have much oil and water, and this time the sheep and horses they seem to have entered were infected with illness halfway through, and a large number of people died, leaving only dozens of lambs and three or four mules and horses. He also said that all the way to the south, the road is far away, and the sheep and horses can't say how much they will lose, because most of their capital is spent on this, so they begged us to give us a few dollars. Afraid! These birdmen who want to take advantage of a little bit have seen a lot, and this account is written in black and white, and the small ones must be taken out! ”
The middle-aged man led by the sheep and horse dealers hurriedly walked up to Xiao Tang, sang a fat song, and said: "Shaodong, in the past, I waited for the resale of sheep and horses through the precious land, and the house money, wine and food were never in arrears.
Not to mention that I waited for the capital to be lost, and now the coiling has been used for most of it, so this time I am shy to ask for Guiji Town, and the next time I wait to buy sheep and horses in the field, the silver owed will be repaid in full. ”
The more the sheep and horse dealer spoke, the more sad he became, and Xiao Tang knew that what he said was also the truth. Although the Song Dynasty was very restrained in its efforts to stimulate commercial development, and taxes such as tooth tax were set very low in the field of trade with the Liao State, the imperial court had experienced old and new party struggles in recent years, and many laws and regulations were changed day by day, and the demand for finance further increased since Huizong came to power, and all kinds of tangible and invisible pressures were pressed on these common people in the Great Song Dynasty layer upon layer.
For example, when Cai Jing was in power, he was the first to send money to him, such as millet, beans, firewood and grass, and attendant rations were all rewarded to him as usual.
The fluctuation of the size of the regulations not only made Cai Jing and other powerful ministers seek huge profits, but also petty officials everywhere were also moved by the news, and in various places, they were exploited layer by layer in the name of tax (commodity circulation tax) and housing tax (commodity transaction tax), and most of the time such powerless and nameless sheep and horse dealers could only let people fish for meat, and the sheep purchased this time accidentally died in large numbers, which was indeed a fatal blow to them.
Xiao Tang nodded and listened to the vendor's complaints, thought about it in his heart, and had an idea, so he said to the sheep and horse dealer: "I don't know what this uncle is called? ”
The sheep and horse dealer replied respectfully: "I am called Shi Cheng." ”
Xiao Tang smiled and said: "Uncle Shi, I don't think it's as good as this, you and you will sell all the sheep and horses on hand to me, so that you also have spare money on hand, and if these sheep and horses are left, if they are damaged again due to climate, water and soil on the way south, wouldn't it be even more bloodless?" That's the price... Uncle Shi said the number, I have a plan. ”
Shi Cheng pondered for a while and felt that this was the most suitable solution. But he passed by Xiao Jiaji several times, and knew that this brocade mastiff was famous in the past, and now this Xiao Tang was very polite to himself, where did he dare to say the right price?
Thinking of this, Shi Cheng hesitated and said: "If it weren't for the young owner who was willing to take over this batch of sheep and horses this time, it would only be a bamboo basket to draw water in the next eight or nine out of ten. ”
Xiao Tang was stunned for a moment, and said with a slight anger: "Uncle Shi, what are you talking about?" When I, Xiao Tang is a villain who takes advantage of the opportunity? Making a living like Uncle Shi, traveling thousands of miles just to make a few small profits, how can I, Xiao Tang, take advantage of you? Uncle Shi didn't dare to report the number, so I Xiao Tang said: In the past, in the wine shop inn in my market town, I also went into the whole sheep to pack up and sell it as dried meat, so I also know the amount of the purchase price of ordinary restaurants and restaurants, so I bought it from Uncle Shi and others according to the price at which we usually buy whole sheep in our store, how about it? ”
Shi Cheng really couldn't believe his ears, it is said that his livelihood as a sheep and horse trafficker was the demand for the goods he imported from the Rongchang from various merchants, from the Song-Liao border to HB Road, and then south through SD Huainan West Road and other places.
The price of meat in ordinary restaurants is much higher than the amount he bought at a low price from the market, there is a way to be a traitor, in fact, Xiao Tang saw that he suffered a serious loss this time, even if he took the opportunity to accept his sheep and horses at a low price, it was reasonable. And Xiao Tang bought from him at the purchase price of a normal restaurant, not to make extra profits when he stopped his loss, but to really solve his current misfortune!
Shi Cheng said to Xiao Tang with gratitude: "Young Dongjia is benevolent! This kindness is recorded in his heart, and he will repay it one day! ”
Xiao Tang picked up Shi Cheng and said, "Uncle Shi, I still have something to discuss with you." ”
Shi Cheng hurriedly responded: "Although the young owner said that it is, he must do his best if he can do it." ”
Xiao Tang said: "I have a wine shop and restaurant in this market town, I have to buy more mutton in the future, and I also intend to buy some more horses. Of course, let's take care of this reward. ”
After hearing this, Shi Cheng hurriedly said that if Xiao Tang needed to inform him, every time he would buy it by the way and deliver it at the original price, and he didn't want Xiao Tang to pay another reward, where would Xiao Tang be willing to do it? After some arguments, Shi Cheng also agreed.
The matter has been finalized, Xiao Tang instructed Xiao An: "This time, Uncle Shi and his fellow businessmen will also waive the money for the wine and meat room, and I will need Uncle Shi's help in the future, so why should I talk about it." ”
"But... Young master. Xiao An said depressedly: "The mutton in our wine shop inn has been fully prepared, and there is no extra shepherd in the market town to take care of these sheep, what should these sheep do?" ”
Xiao Tang couldn't bear Xiao An's noise, and said: "Whether you are looking for a spare bartender to take care of, or make cured meat and preserve it, there is always a way, do you still need me to ask about this kind of thing one by one?" ”
Xiao An had no choice but to respond, and Shi Cheng said to Xiao Tang again: "Thank you Shaodong for your righteousness, we are all in the sheep and horse business, and we have spare time at the moment, how to take care of these sheep and horses, I would like to inform the manager of your town." ”
After receiving Xiao Tang's affirmative reply, Shi Cheng said to the young man beside him: "Nephew, don't hurry up and drive those sheep and horses over." ”
The young man beside Shi Cheng answered, and then he hugged Xiao Tang deeply and left, without a trace of hatred in his eyes.
Xiao Tang suddenly vaguely noticed something, but before he had time to think deeply, Wu Song's big hand slapped him on the shoulder twice, which shocked Xiao Tang's internal organs, Wu Song nodded at Xiao Tang and said, "It's also a good thing for you." ”
"To make it convenient for others is to make it convenient for oneself." Xiao Tang smiled bitterly and rubbed his shoulder, which was slapped by Wu Song, and said: "If people can do more good deeds, their mood will become much happier, since this is the case, then why not do it?" ”
Wu Song's eyes looked at Xiao Tang strangely, and said, "It's inexplicable, but it's true... There is some truth to that. ”
Wu Song stretched his waist again, exhaled turbid air, and said loudly: "Let's go, go and have some wine!" ”
Qingsongpo, not far from Xiaojiaji, is a place where mountains and rivers are beautiful, it is adjacent to Xiaojiaji in Zongcheng County, Sujiazhuang and Kong Songzhuang in QH County, some time ago Xiao Jiaji and Kong Songzhuang also had a dispute over the drainage of irrigation, and now Xiao Tang and Wu Song are here together to relax.
Xiao Yi is a cautious person, he has already carried the bag and put the meat and a pot of wine behind Xiao Tang and Wu Song, Wu Song found a shady place to sit, poked open the yellow mud sealed on the wine jug, and poured a big sip of wine, which made him feel a lot more happy.
Xiao Tang did the same, he also lifted the wine jug and took a big sip, then wiped his mouth, and said with a sigh of relief: "Occasionally go out to eat some wine, looking at the endless world, my heart feels a lot wider." ”
Wu Song glanced at Xiao Tang and said, "You have a big heart, and when others provoke you, you still look leisurely." ”
"What if not?" Xiao Tang lay comfortably on the grass, looked at the white clouds in the sky and said: "Many people hate and hate those who are from noble backgrounds, and scold them for being ointments, but in fact, if they were also born with a golden spoon, what they did might be even more unbearable;
Some people are bullied by some people with high martial arts because of their weakness, and they denounce the world as unfair, and the world deceives the good and fears the evil, in fact, if they learn a skill, they will turn their heads and bully the weak and good, and I am afraid that there will be a lot;
I don't have the ability of Second Brother Wu, and I am not as powerful as the nine-headed insect, so there are many things that I really can't do. However, in his position, he is concerned about his actions and does his duty, as the young owner of Xiaojiaji, I let the farmers in the market town live happily and make myself happier, worthy of heaven and earth, why bother for those things that I can't control? ”
According to Wu Song's way of life, after listening to Xiao Tang's words, he always felt that something was wrong, but he didn't know how to refute it, so he simply changed his head and said: "When I first saw you, I thought you were just a pinch of birds who harmed the township and were soft and afraid of hardness. But you have prevented my eldest brother and Miss Pan from being separated, and I have indeed despised you when I see you in these days. ”
Xiao Tang remembered that Wu Song had a nose that was not a nose and an eye that was not an eye to him at the beginning, and now he can have a relationship with you, the big hero in the Water Margin, which can be regarded as some achievements.
Xiao Tang, Wu Song, Xiao Yi, and Xue Yong talked happily, talking and laughing, and unconsciously more than half an hour had passed, among which Xiao Yi smiled and was about to say something, when his expression suddenly froze, and he pointed to the front and said, "Look, what's going on over there?" ”
Everyone looked in the direction Xiao Yi pointed, and saw from a distance that there was a big man protecting a girl who escaped with his life, and there were sixteen or seventeen people chasing behind him, the girl ran slowly, and the big man had to block behind the girl to intercept those people, and now he was already fighting with that man.
Wu Song stood up and said, "Let's go, go and see what's going on!" Xiao Tang also called Xiao Yi and Xue Yong hurriedly rushed there.
The girl is the daughter of the daughter who escaped from the Su Mansion, and the big man is a nursing home on the Su Mansion, last night he took advantage of the chaos and several other nursing homes to protect his young lady out of the mansion, escaped all the way, but was chased by the people sent by Li Shaohua, and several other nursing homes were either captured or killed, and he was the only one who was still desperately resisting.
The minions are leading the way, but the two bullies of the famous mansion, the two sons of Liu Guang, the brainchild Liu Guang under the nine-headed worm Li Shaohua, "Meat Dog" Liu Qi and "Bloody Jackal" Liu Lin.
The man's knife skills were indeed good, and the layers of knife light forced a dry minions to retreat again, and as soon as someone approached, he was slashed a few times by him, and he fell to the ground with a miserable howl. But he wanted to protect the girl, and he had no choice but to fight the wolves alone, and was caught by the meat dog Liu Qi, and a shot was held on the big man's leg, and the big man snorted, and the knife move in his hand slowed down.
Everyone gathered around them, kicked the big man's waist knife off, and pressed him to the ground, and a few more went up to catch the struggling girl.
Liu Lin, the blood-gnawing jackal, spat thick phlegm on the big man's face, and scolded viciously: "This Luo Tuohan, who is not dead or hungry and does not kill, has hard methods, and it has caused our brothers to chase so far away, why don't you quickly restrain that girl and send it to the young master?" ”
"Wait." Liu Qi shouted to his minions, looked at the girl with a thief's eyes, and then said to Liu Lin: "Such a beauty, do you really plan to send her to the young master?" ”
Liu Lin was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I said, you don't want to take her body privately, do you?" It's not that you don't know that the young master has coveted this woman for a long time, if you and I start the bud and are known by the young master, how can you and I be better? ”
Liu Qi snorted and scolded: "He hunts for beauty and fishing, how can our brothers have any benefits?" Our sisters were all sent to him as concubines, and besides, the few oiran leaders who slept with him, when will our brothers also get some meat? Look at this little beauty again, you really don't want it? ”
Liu Lin glanced at the girl, she was pitiful, and her appearance was ...... Liu Lin couldn't help but swallow his saliva fiercely, only to feel that an evil fire in his lower abdomen was burning vigorously, and Liu Lin's pair of tricks stayed on the girl's delicate appearance and graceful body, especially looking at her expression of struggle and pleading... If the evil thoughts in his mind had come true, the girl would have been ravaged by him countless times!
Thinking of his master, Liu Lin thought about it and said, "But what should I do with this beauty?" Our brother is happy, so naturally we can't send her back, but if we hide it privately, how can we not leak it? ”
Liu Qi's face was vicious, and he sneered: "After we have enjoyed it, let the brothers who have chased all the way be happy, this Tao Lao Tzu has never played before, and it is very exciting!" And playing with her body is a 'vote for a name', who dares to chew his tongue? Afterwards, she was killed with a knife, only to say that she was unwilling to be arrested and committed suicide, and there was no proof of death, who knew that more than a dozen of us had been married to her for a day? ”
"What?" When Liu Lin heard that his brother's idea was so vicious, Rao Shi had already set up a tent under his crotch, and his heart couldn't help but chuckle. This method is inevitably vicious, happy is to destroy this little lady's hot hands, how outrageous is this behavior?
But Liu Lin thought again: Lao Tzu has three tiles and two houses, and the brothel in the Qinglou has been happy for a long time, but how could he have ever gotten such excellent goods? If I meet it on weekdays, I will have to get such a stunner on my bed for a few years, and now I will give away the creation in front of me? Fuck it!
I pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, who the hell pities this big object under my crotch?
Thinking of this, Liu Lin also said viciously: "Yes, damn it, there is a bird for kindness?" In the end, it's still cheaper for the nine-headed worm, and have I ever eaten some oil and water? Today, I can't let those nine-headed insects enter, but our brothers want to be happy! ”
Liu Qiyin smiled and walked to the nursing home that was pressed to the ground, stepped on his face, and said, "Hehe, you dog who cares for the Su family's nursing home, you are really a loyal servant!" Young Master Ben will give you some benefits, so that you can see your young lady's Living Spring Palace before you die. Tut-tut, such a fragrant thing, you're a lowly martial artist I'm afraid I've never seen it, right? ”
The big man shook his head and cried out in a heart-rending rage: "Dog thief! If you dare to touch a single hair of my young lady! Even if I lose this life, I will turn into a demon and whip your tendons, eat your flesh, drink your blood, and tear your bones!! ”
Liu Qi laughed wildly: "Hahaha, why don't I just move a hair of your young lady?" Up and down, inside and out, our brothers have to move brightly!! ”
After laughing, he ordered his subordinates to press Miss Su to the ground, and broke her legs, Liu Qi's eyes seemed to reveal a faint green light, and he reached out to untie Miss Su's clothes, and said: "Little beauty, I'm here!" ”
"Stop! In broad daylight, where did the dog thief come from to do this unconscionable deed!? There was a thunderclap on the flat ground, which frightened Liu Qi and Liu Lin and the others, who else could come? It was Xiao Tang and Wu Song and others!
