Hearing Ximen Qing's request, Zhao Tieniu was taken aback, and said in a lost voice: "Ximen Woman, this Yanggu Fan family is the family of scholars, and there are several civil officials from the ninth grade in the family!" ”

"You Liangshan are afraid of the three old men from the Fan family?" Ximen Qing glared at Zhao Tieniu, "Brother Thirty-six, isn't it that you have been in the house for too short a time, and you don't know the market on the rivers and lakes of Yunzhou, right?" ”

"I know a little bit about this, but this matter is still not trivial......

Zhao Tieniu knew what kind of role Liangshan had on the ground in the five states of Yunzhou, Qizhou, Yanzhou, Jeju and Puzhou, but he was still very afraid of the possibility of causing the death of officials.

Ximen Qing sneered: "You can't be the master of this matter, just go and talk to the leader Chao and the leader of Song on the mountain." And I don't ask you Liangshan brothers to work in vain, and the reward is indispensable for you. ”

As she spoke, the strong men of the Ximen family who followed her had already carried four black wooden boxes in and placed them side by side in front of Zhao Tieniu.

"Open!"

With Ximen Qing's order, the four boxes were opened at the same time.

Hiss!

Zhao Tieniu suddenly gasped.

The silver light in front of him was shining, and he almost spent his eyes.

When I looked closely, it turned out to be a pretty piece of silver. Zhao Tieniu raised his head suddenly, looked at Ximen Qing in surprise, and thought: Where did the Fan family provoke Ximen Qing? How do you want to do them with such blood?

In this era, the spread of news is still quite slow, what happened in Yanggu County a day ago, Zhao Tieniu, who is in Xucheng County, still doesn't know.

As for Ximen Qing's encounter with a thief, Zhao Tieniu knows more than anyone else! Oh, what he knows is not that Ximen Qing met a thief, but that Ximen Qing became a thief and slept with Wu Haogu, the God of Wealth...... Look at Ximen Qing's figure, most of them are pregnant with other people's cubs, and now Pan Qiaolian's girl is going to be depressed!

Ximen Qing pointed to the four wooden boxes and said, "Here are three thousand taels of silver, if you exchange them in the market, you can also exchange them for five thousand copper coins." This silver money is the reward for the Liangshan heroes to 'eat', and after the deed is completed, there are 7,000 taels of silver to offer. ”

The 10,000 taels of silver used to buy the heroes of Liangshan were naturally given by Wu Haogu...... It is part of Ximen Qing's "selling money". The deal to buy and sell Simon Woman is certainly a "gentleman's deal".

Mother-in-law Ximen didn't mention the money at all, which meant that she would let Wu Dalang give it casually...... Even if it is a penny, Ximen Qing will happily go to be a concubine for Wu Haogu. And Wu Haogu took 20,000 taels of silver out to "buy" Ximen Qing, for Wu Dalang, Ximen Qing is a priceless treasure!

"Moreover, I don't want you to destroy the Fan family," Ximen Qing said with a smile, "There is no need to kill those three old guys with official status, you just need to invite a few men from the Fan family to Liangshan to join the gang." ”

It is very easy to break the Fan family village, because the Fan family is a poetic heirloom, and the combat power is equal to zero - just look at the Fan family archers who were beaten by Kaifeng in Yanggu County, these people are still the people who can fight the Fan family!

But Ximen Qing also knows the heroes of Liangshan, especially the style of Song Heizi. It's okay for them to break the Fan family, but it's impossible for them to kill all the men of the Fan family. Inconsequential people may kill some, but Fan Jiu Xiucai, Fan Thirteen Xiucai, and the three Fan family's Nine Rank Sesame Officials will definitely not kill.

However, Ximen Qing didn't need Liang Shan to kill all the men of the Fan family, she just wanted to dig up the roots of the Fan family in Yanggu County, and she didn't need to destroy the Fan family's door.

Zhao Tieniu asked uncertainly: "Just invite a few Fan family members to go up the mountain and join in?" ”

Ximenqing added: "We still need to send more heroes, at least 1,000 troops." ”

1,000 robbers is not a small number!

The reality is not "Water Margin", there are tens of thousands of robbers at every turn, and there are so many robbers still staying in Liangshan? I went down the mountain early to take the Great Song Dynasty...... If you take the country, you can save your brain and do Zhao'an, right?

So the Liangshan thieves in reality are 36 leaders and more than 1,000 minions. Moreover, not all of the Liangshan thieves lived on the mountain, because Liangshan was a very small mountain, less than 600 feet high (less than 200 meters), and the area was not large, so there were no more than 1,000 thieves to hide.

Besides, no one has ever said that robbers have to be a full-time job, right? The forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty was not full-time, let alone robbers? And behind the more than 1,000 thieves, there are more than 1,000 happy big families and small families! How can you stay in the mountains all day and stay at home?

Almost all the heroes of Liangshan in "Water Margin" are singles, and they don't know how to solve their physiological needs and reproduce? Without offspring, where will the successors of the bandit business come from?

In reality, most of the robbers in Liangshan have wives and children...... These people not only block the road and rob them, but also collect protection money and tolls, and their income is naturally high, so how can they not marry a wife? If you can't afford to marry your wife, who will be a thief?

Therefore, the heroes of Liangshan are actually a group of "underworld forces" entrenched around Liangshanbo, and they all have families and mouths. The minions also fish and farm, and only follow the leaders out to be thieves when necessary.

And the big bosses also have their own business, either the landlord, or the fisherman, or the moonshine, the family is a comfortable big house, and there are wives and concubines and servants to serve.

In fact, these people are similar to the Ximen family, they are all "underworld forces", but the Ximen family does not rob, so they are not bandits.

At that time, the area of Liangshanbo was known as "thousands of harbors, 800 miles around", the terrain was very complicated, and it was the hub of water transportation, so it was naturally prone to water bandits and bullies. They developed and grew, and they formed the so-called "Liangshan heroes".

If anyone runs to Liangshan to look for the large group of bandits who are fighting against the imperial court under the banner of "walking for the sky", they will definitely be disappointed.

And Zhao Tieniu, who took over Ximenqing's big business in Sucheng City, did not climb Liangshan, but went out of the city and went straight to Songjia Village at the foot of Liangshan and on the edge of Liangshanbo. After walking dozens of miles to Songjia Village, I entered the largest and most luxurious house in the village, which is the residence of Song Jiang, the famous filial piety Hei Saburo on the rivers and lakes......

……

"What? Fan Zhijin's mother-in-law was snatched by a thief from Kaifeng Mansion? That's not right, isn't Fan Jiuxiucai's mother-in-law long gone? ”

At the same time, Zhiyanggu County, who had just returned from a business trip in Xucheng County, Xuan Fenglang Shi Guozhong was listening to the county lieutenant Zhang Kegong's report on the "lewd thief case".

"Xuanfeng, it was his fiancée who was taken away." Zhang Kegong frowned and reported, "That's how the Fan family reported, this is a complaint. ”

As he spoke, he handed a copy of the complaint written by Fan Zhijin to Shi Dazhi County.

Shi Dazhi County took the complaint, unfolded it, nodded and praised: "Good words!" is really worthy of being a genius in Yanggu, this is really well written...... Well, the article is also well done, every word is fine, and there is a hearty feeling to read. It seems that Fan Jiuxiu will probably be able to enter high school this time! ”

What is this? Zhang Kegong smiled bitterly in his heart, you are now the magistrate of the county, not the chief examiner of the imperial examination! Is the word good, is the article good...... It doesn't make sense, it doesn't matter, right.

"Xuanfeng," Zhang Kegong frowned and asked, "Do you think Fan Jiuxiucai's complaint is reasonable?" ”

"Reason?" Shi Dazhi shook his head and said, "I don't think it makes sense...... Winning the jinshi is the last word! As long as you win, you will be like a beautiful flower, and you will still bring a dowry of 100,000 yuan upside down. What is this Fan Jiu in a hurry? In a few months, maybe it will be a jinshi, and then I'm afraid that there will be no lady? Besides, it's not that he hasn't asked for a lady, and he even has a son who will inherit the lineage, so why is he in a hurry? ”

Zhang Kegong really couldn't laugh or cry, this Shi Dazhi County is really "reasonable", but his truth has nothing to do with the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, but his valuable life experience.

Shi Dazhi County is a boy who has been holding back for decades, and he was caught by his son-in-law under the list until he was caught by his son-in-law in high school, and his wife is the daughter of the Kaifeng giant merchant Wanjia, Ying Ying is eighteen years old, a flower-like girl, with 100,000 dowries inserted on the good cow dung of his roll call outside the Donghua Gate.

However, Shi Dazhi County is still very good to this "little wife", and he does not have concubines (it is estimated that he is also weak), nor does he spend all day drinking outside, and he never blames his wife for not being able to give birth, and he is obedient to his wife's words...... What a model husband!

"Then this ......," Zhang Kegong asked, "what about this case?" ”

In fact, it's okay to just forget it, this case is a bit vexatious...... If the Fan family is really a wealthy businessman in Kaifeng Mansion, just let them have some blood. But there are also people in the martial arts family who are military attachés! Zhang Kegong, as a civil official, teaches a lesson to the domineering Wu Haogu, and it is no good to keep entangled.

Anyway, he now has the courage to fight against the military attaché who is fortunate enough, and that's it, it doesn't matter how the Fan family's bullshit lawsuit is fought.

"It's not okay to do it just like that," Shi Dazhi shook his head, "Since the complaint has been handed in, the case will always have to be tried in the first instance...... However, the official still wants to persuade Fan Jiuxiu to toss less, and it is right to concentrate on what should be done. If he is willing to withdraw the complaint, he will ask the thief to pay him a hundred and eighty yuan as a plan to enter Beijing to take the exam. ”

"Okay, good," Zhang Kegong nodded again and again, "Then the lower official just went to talk to Fan Jiuxiu." ”

"Say it, just say it."

Shi Dazhi County waved his hand again and again and sent Zhang Kegong away. After sending it away, Shi Dazhi County immediately went to the back house happily to give an errand to his wife.

It turned out that Mrs. Shi also knew Wu Haogu, a famous painter in Kaifeng Mansion, and met with the Wu family father and son in the county Yahou Mansion yesterday afternoon, and also accepted gifts and asked Wu Haogu, a "thief", to paint a photo for her......
