Chapter 789: Lianjia

"Tranquility, Jin Gehui and the Sky Gang have been killed like a river of blood, and you still say that the rivers and lakes are quiet?!" Jiang Chi in the recliner said dissatisfiedly while drinking iced sour plum soup. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"No matter what I say, Deng Qi has nothing to do with the rivers and lakes, so why bother with a few words of praise? Besides, the emperor has seen thousands of miles, how can he hide from his eyes what the rivers and lakes are like now!"

"Ya, after filming Deng Qi and filming the emperor, they all said that you are talented and upright, why didn't I find out that you were a big sycophant before?"

"Are you dissatisfied that I didn't pat you on the back!" Chang Wei's heart was gloomy for a while, but with a smile on his face, he raised the two thick directories in his hand: "Okay, Dongshan, don't talk nonsense, with this list, we can reorganize the Jianghu Intelligence Network according to the map." 」

After more than 200 years of operation, the imperial court has laid a huge intelligence network in the rivers and lakes, from the thirteen political envoys to the prefectures, states and counties, from the famous faction such as Shaolin Wudang, to the ninth-rate prostitutes in the car and boat shops, all flashing the figure of the court informant.

There are more than 5,000 informants serving the imperial court, and many families have become informant families, although they have experienced several major turmoil, they can basically maintain the integrity of the intelligence network, just like the battle between the Happy Gang and the Twelve Docks, although they lost nearly 300 informants, but after Deng Qi took over, it has gradually made up.

In addition to the Jingshi, following the example of Jinyiwei, each of the other 12 provinces has a leading informant and a law enforcement informant; each prefecture and county has a leader informant, and the leader informant and the leader informant are responsible for commanding the intelligence system of the whole province and the prefecture and county, and reporting the information to the law enforcers in the imperial court who are in charge of the rivers and lakes in a faster or lower manner; and the law enforcement informant is responsible for dealing with those informants who violate the rules in their own provinces, and directly obeys the orders of the law enforcers in the rivers and lakes.

As for the Gyeonggi important land, because it is related to the emperor's safety, the informant has always been personally in charge of the emperor's henchman Jinyiwei.

Due to the covert support of the imperial court and the unimpeded intelligence sources, most of those leaders and informants developed into powerful local powers.

The status of many of the informant leaders is hereditary from generation to generation, just like Gao Qi's biological father is the leader of Suzhou, Gao Qi's eldest brother inherited his father's position, and Gao Qi's natural informant ability made Chang Wei think that the master he met in Xia Zhen before was also the immortal leader of the imperial court on the rivers and lakes.

This is also the best interpretation of the old saying "dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and the sons of mice will make holes".

Of course, with the change of dynasties and the passage of time, many informant families have declined, or even disappeared overnight - surviving in the cracks between the imperial court and the rivers and lakes, they are not as glamorous as they seem.

However, due to the fact that most of them are deeply rooted in the local area, most of the successive law enforcers have cooperated with them by means of appeasement, and only replaced them with their own men and horses in a few areas where their personal interests are concerned.

Deng Qi was born in the South China Sea, and his wife Yilun is the younger sister of the King of Shu, so Guangdong and Sichuan provinces are the focus of his business.

However, due to the intricateness of the relationship between Nanzhili and the fact that he did not want to arouse the suspicion of the emperor, although he had been in Yingtianfu for more than ten years, he only maintained a close relationship with the leader of Nanzhili.

"Daring Do you, where are you going to start?"

"Of course, it's Nanzhili, my hometown Suzhou, and my current residence Zhenjiang are all subordinate to Nanzhili, and the main battlefield of the Jin Ge Society and the Changkong Gang is also Nanzhili, and the situation in Nanzhili is stable, not only is my rear safe, but the rivers and lakes are also calm. What's more, Nan Zhili is not Deng Qi's henchman, and he won't have any ideas about changing the leader informant. 」

"Ruifu Xianglin family, this is a difficult opponent!" Jiang Chi muttered while flipping through the list, "Hehe, you are still related to me! My daughter-in-law's uncle's third room is the Lin family's aunt and grandmother...... Oh, there's another one, the second lady of the Lin family is the concubine of my father-in-law's nephew, hehe, fearless, this thing is not easy to do, my old father-in-law is very protective of calves!"

"It's not easy for others to do, but in your hands in Dongshan, it's easy to do, as long as your younger brother and sister repair a book and explain the stakes, you will naturally be able to get your hands on it. 」

「...... What's at stake?" Jiang Chi's eyes narrowed.

"Dongshan, when you see this list, you should understand how much power we have. You also know, I am a lazy and unmotivated person, I love money and beauties, not the power in my hands, I have been working for two or three years, my ideals have been realized, my pockets are rich, and the women in the house have collected enough, I should say goodbye to the old man and return to my hometown, live my debauchery and erosion life, and then replace me must be you Jiang Dongshan. When you become a law enforcer in the rivers and lakes, will the identity of the leader of the Lin family be more beneficial or harmful to you?"

"Thank you, thank you!" Jiang Chi was taken aback, sat up straight, and thanked him: "The emperor hates the most is collusion up and down, Lao Tzu doesn't want to touch this mold. He blinked and said with a smile, "However, you can't escape as a wicked person, so you have to give my daughter-in-law an excuse to write a letter!"

"Then simply piggyback on Wang Ren from Zhejiang, the Jin Ge Society has developed so rapidly in the past two years, and the information that Deng Qi has obtained is relatively lagging behind, I am afraid that this girl has already been bought by the Jin Ge Society. He has a military background in his family, and it was very troublesome for me to come forward to get rid of him. 」

The subsequent encounters between Ying Tianlin's family and Hangzhou's Wang family were very different. Grandpa Xu and the Wang family had a conflict in the background, so he just took the opportunity to pull him off his horse and knock him to the ground, and although the Lin family resigned from the position of the head informant, he was still in charge of Nanzhili's intelligence work before the newcomer succeeded him.

Of course, Chang Wei didn't know all this. In fact, during that time, he and Jiang Chi were not in Beijing, but went to Shandong.

Because of Shandong's proximity to Gyeonggi, although there are bandits ringing horses, the power of the rivers and lakes that are openly active is not huge, and most of them abide by the law, and the work of the informants is light, happy and orderly, which is suitable for the fledgling Chang Wei and Jiang Chi.

The leader informant, Han Dezhong, is a well-known landowner in Jinan Prefecture, shrewd but bold, and won the favor of the two of them at once, and he also taught him how to manage the informant, how to manage the informant, how to distinguish the authenticity of the information, how to judge the priority of the information, how to transmit emergency information, and even how to use the information obtained to make a fortune.

Chang Wei and the others used his example to verify each other with the essence of Deng Qi's explanation, and roughly understood the management process of the informant.

Suddenly, in August, the task of this trip was finally completed. After more than ten days, the two of them were already a little tired of living in Jinan Mansion, so they didn't stay longer and rushed to Beijing immediately.

It's not that Han Dezhong is deliberately slacking, on the contrary, he has deliberately greeted them, and even bought a few clever girls to serve the two of them. But Jiang Chi was cultivating the Thirteen Classics of Dong Xuanzi and didn't dare to open meat, while Chang Wei completely lost interest in those vulgar fans. Besides, as soon as they heard the green onion tone of the Lu people, the two of them had no desire, and Jinan Mansion was not more prosperous than Jingshi, so there was really nothing to be nostalgic about.

On the road with them was Lao Zhang, the second shopkeeper of Sitong Motor. When Chang Wei left Beijing, he wrote a letter to Wang Chen, revealing to him the idea of cooperating in opening a car dealership, and asked him to have time to come to Jinan to discuss cooperation.

Lao Wang was very shrewd, and gave Lao Zhang 50,000 taels of silver to let him act cheaply, but he didn't show up at all.

Although Lao Zhang is honest, after all, he has been in the shopping mall for decades, and he understands Wang Chen's mind very well, saying that the money can be used, and he Lao Zhang is also ready to be sent at any time, and even let him take care of things in the new car dealership, but if you want to use the banner of Sitong car dealership, everything is not to be discussed, Chang Wei and Jiang Chi saw that Wang Chen's face was enough, but it was not good for him to be too embarrassed, so they had to leave Lao Zhang behind.

Lao Zhang traveled south and north, he was well-informed, where there was delicious food, where there was fun, he knew everything, Jiang Chi was like picking up a treasure, it was very rare, along the way, asking east and west, quite not lonely.

However, the charm and charm of the Jiangnan woman in Lao Zhang's mouth and the exotic style of the orchid in the Western Regions also set Jiang Chi's fire on fire, and the closer he got to the Jingshi, the more excited he became.

"Grandma's, I've been holding it for a month, and I'm fucking excited to see a sow now. 」

"But you didn't become a boar!"

Counting the days, today happens to be the full month of Jiang Chi's cultivation of the Thirteen Classics. Although Cangzhou, where he rested, was not a big place, it was not a problem to pick out a few beauties, but Jiang Chi did not have the slightest intention of looking for flowers and asking willows, which surprised Chang Wei.

In fact, it is enough for the Thirteen Classics to have a twenty-day foundation, and I was afraid that Jiang Chi would not be able to hold on for even twenty days, so I said ten more days, but I didn't expect him to be really ruthless, and he was also a persevering master, which was also quite unexpected by Chang Wei.

"Daughter-in-law first, daughter-in-law first. Jiang Chi smiled and said, "She's been hungry for a month, so she has to keep the good things!"

The cool breeze blew slowly, and Jiang Chi narrowed his eyes appropriately, but there was still a true feeling in his obscene smile.

However, Jiang Chi, who was woken up by a ringing dingdong sound, soon revealed his true colors, and the pig brother's face proved that he was only resistant to sows.

And Chang Wei's head immediately became the boss, because the stunning beauty who walked in from outside the door of the inn was none other than the seven-foot bearded eyebrows Tang Jinyi.

"What, he abandoned you when he had the county lord? This is really unbearable! Beauty, see that Young Master Ben will seek justice for you!Ah? Dauntless, you don't have to look at me like that...... Okay, I'm afraid of you, it's hard for a Qing official to cut off family affairs, you talk slowly, young master, I'm tired, go to sleep!"

Seeing Jiang Chi leaving, Chang Weicai smiled bitterly and said, "Jinyi, why are you addicted to your mother's pretending to be a woman?"

Tang Jinyi was silent for a moment, and did not answer his question, but said, "Fearless, I'm here to say goodbye to you. The sixth uncle has promised to fully cooperate with my father, and all the people of the Tang Sect in Beijing, except for the sixth brother, have also been evacuated, but there are still some tails, so I have to ask you to take care of it. 」

"You can rest assured. Chang Wei nodded and said slowly, "With me, there is Tangmen." 」

Deng Qi bought a favor for Chang Wei, and told him when he introduced the situation in the rivers and lakes to him in private that the government had found some clues about the Tang Sect's trafficking in the Seven Links, and even Lu Meigong and he had obtained a considerable number of Seven Links, just because Tang Tianyun was cautious, and while increasing the number of sales, he also changed the medicinal properties of the Seven Links, but he never grabbed his hands and neck.

After Chang Wei got the news, he immediately notified Tang Jinyi, he naturally understood the seriousness of the matter, and began to evacuate the Tang Men from the capital, and this was likely to become an important bargaining chip for him to persuade Tang Tianyun.

For personal purposes, and because the Seven Rings involved the privacy of many princes and nobles, Deng Lu and the others did not disclose the Seven Links, but hid it, and used all the Seven Links in Deng Qi's hands on the heroes of Longtan Town.

Nominally, it was to create conditions for Chang Wei to take over, but in fact, Chang Wei knew that Deng Qi and Lu Meigong needed a calm Jianghu to retire with dignity, and they didn't dare to really face Tangmen's tragic revenge.

For them, the Tang Sect is far more terrifying than the Jin Ge Society and the Changkong Gang, as long as the Jin Ge Society dies as long as Chu Tiankuo's father, son, brother, and master die, the prospect of the tree falling and scattering is promising, and the history of the Changkong Gang is only forty or fifty years. In other words, both of them are full of wealth, and they don't have much foundation in the rivers and lakes, relying on the personal martial arts and charm of powerful people to maintain the unity of the gang, at best, they have the support of the two major families of Murong and Ouyang.

It can't be compared with the hundred-year-old family of the Tang Sect, as long as there is a fish in the Tang Sect that slips through the net, Deng Lu and the others may not be able to sleep.

What they really hope for is that Chang Wei, a Jianghu enforcer with extremely strong martial arts, can uproot the Tang Sect, because in their opinion, only Chang Wei will not be afraid of the Tang Sect's bloody revenge.

Let Chang Wei deal with the Tang Sect? It sounds a bit incredible, but in their opinion, with Chang Wei's status, there is no need to be too deeply entangled with a Jianghu sect like the Tang Sect, and a Tang Shuxue and a concubine can't affect the dignified Qin Guogong's desire for power.

"Let me deal with the Tang Sect? Deng Qi made a mistake this time. While secretly thinking in his heart, Chang Wei looked at Tang Jinyi opposite, and there was a hint of strange emotion on his delicate face, which was only slightly inferior to his own sister, Tang Shuxue, who was stunning in the rivers and lakes.

"Now that's all that's left for my grandfather. Tang Jinyi didn't thank him, but smiled: "If he is willing to live in seclusion and don't ask about the world, that's the best, but the uncle is his heart and all his hopes, once the uncle dies, no one can predict how the uncle will react, the sixth uncle refuses to go south to persuade the grandfather, so I have to go to Suzhou." And when I go to Suzhou, no matter what the result is, I'm afraid I'm going to have to stay in Shuzhong for a long time. 」

Chang Wei understood the meaning of his words, Tang Tianwei's father was proficient in poison, and Tang Jinyi's departure was really uncertain.

If you lose, I am afraid that you will not even be able to save your life; if you win, Tang Xingtian is likely to take the opportunity to get rid of the situation of the separation of power and the weakness of the Tang Sect, and there will be a great purge within the Tang Sect, which will inevitably require Tang Jinyi to return to Shu to help his father.

When Tang Jinyi really masters the Tang Gate, he may reappear in the rivers and lakes, and this may be a year and a half, or it may be three or five years.

In public and private, Chang Wei should help Tang Jinyi, so he wrote a letter and handed it to him: "You take the letter to Fenglaiyi to find Fang Huan'er, she should be able to give you a good advice." Then he untied the jade pendant he had with him and stuffed it into his hand.

Tang Jinyi smiled: "Fearless, you really have confidence in me!"

"Nonsense!" Chang Wei said, "I don't have many friends in the rivers and lakes, don't let me down!"

"Gone?" "Gone." "How can you bear to let her go?!" "He's going to Suzhou, do you think I can stop him?"

"After making trouble for a long time, she still obediently went to be your little wife!" Jiang Chi was suddenly deflated: "Why don't I have such a beautiful fortune?!

"Okay, okay, don't worry about my daughter-in-law, I really want to find a few girls, wait for my Kyoto Chu Pavilion to open!"

Jiang Chi suddenly came to his senses: "I heard that you have a master of training girls, I don't know how many people Mama Xiu can bring over this time?"

"No more than five. Chang Wei replied: "Songjiang Fenglaiyi has just opened, and the manpower is not ready to be deployed, and most of the girls are not willing to be too far away from their hometown - the weather in the north is cruel to the women in the south of the Yangtze River. There was a faint worry in his heart, although he sent a letter to Fang Huan'er saying that Bai Xiu was needed in the capital, just like Fang Huan'er couldn't completely control her, Chang Wei couldn't fully see the mind of this top female killer in the rivers and lakes, unless he could see her in the capital.

"That's right. Jiang Chi should have thought of his daughter-in-law and nodded with deep feeling, but soon he laughed obscenely: "That...... The girl in Ning Xin's hometown is famous all over the world, hehe, it's better to let your uncle and my brother-in-law do Zhang Luo for us, there is no girl with a good girl, and the brothel is still a fart!"

"This matter can't be rushed, before marrying Ning Xin home, I can't leave any bad impression on the future old Taishan. Chang Wei immediately refused, but the original experience of Walking Ma Zhangtai quickly took effect: "Dongshan, Baiyangdian on the border of Cangzhou is also a place where beautiful women are produced......

Before I could finish speaking, Jiang Chi had already punched me and shouted outside, "Man, call me your boss." 」

Pangu Temple is not only a scene in Cangzhou, but also the largest market in Cangzhou, it is said that you can buy the best golden silk jujube in Cangzhou, and you can also buy the best and cheapest girl.

Walking through the bazaar, Chang Wei's mood gradually became heavy. I also bought maids in the capital, but they were all brought by Yapo, who wanted to sell them at a good price, so everyone was dressed up cleanly, and it didn't look so miserable.

And the girls who sell themselves here are obviously different, with yellow faces, thin muscles, and ragged clothes are the common characteristics of almost every girl.

"None of the girls here can be eye-catching, so is the boss exaggerating?"

Jiang Chi said with a frown.

"Definitely. Chang Wei shook his head: "The pearl also has a dusty day, and the yellow sand is blown away before seeing gold. There are at least two girls in this bazaar, and after raising them for half a year, they will be reborn, and they will be carved in the hands of Mama Xiu for two years, even if they can't compare to the little phoenix, they will not be too far behind. You pay attention to the little girl next to the pancake stand, don't look at her as thin as a pole, but you can see that her figure is extremely well-proportioned, the skin on her neck is so poisonous under the sun, there are traces of white skin, and her eyes hide a sense of spring......

"Oh, she sees that you are full of spring, and you are really good at boasting!"

In fact, there was no difference in the gaze of these girls on the market who paid attention to Jiang Chi, because there was nothing more glamorous and extraordinary in the entire market than the two of them, and in the eyes of those poor people, a lake satin gown worth ten gold was far more important than appearance.

"Five...... Fifty taels of silver. The middle-aged man next to the girl looked at them cautiously as he stammered out a price.

"Fifty taels?!"

Chang Wei understood that Jiang Chi's surprise came from the girl's cheapness - fifty taels of silver, which was not enough for Xiao Fengxian's expenses for half a month, and he was able to buy a person here.

He didn't know that fifty taels of silver meant that for a farmer, he could buy a few acres of good land, or a few large animals, or live comfortably for three or five years, and for a family with seven or eight or even a dozen children, it was better to find a big family to sell the surplus children, especially daughters, than to let their children starve to death.

However, the middle-aged man obviously misunderstood Jiang Chi's meaning, his face turned red, and his words stammered even more: "Yesterday, the seven girls and ...... next door and the four Nier of the old Li family, also, and sold fifty taels. 」

"Liar!" Jiang Chi was an extremely shrewd person, and he immediately guessed that the middle-aged man's offer was obviously too high: "Twenty taels at most." 」

"I'm honest and never deceive!" The man suddenly became anxious: "Yesterday, a girl bought more than 20 girls in the market, each of them is fifty taels, I thought that she might be able to come today, so I and I drove thirty miles early in the morning to wait for her. 」

The owner of the pancake stall next to him also confirmed: "There was such a woman who came yesterday, she was rich and generous, and she spent thousands of taels of silver without frowning. He lowered his voice again and said, "In the bazaar, Niu Mangzi looked at other people's water spirits, and wanted to tease others, but they were beaten by one of the four, but they were beaten by a woman's family and either their arms were broken or their legs were broken. 」

Chang Wei and Jiang Chi couldn't help but glance at each other, being able to deal with four ruffians by herself, this woman must have some kung fu, but listening to the meaning of the locals, it is obvious that she has not seen her before.

bought Chun Ya'er and other seven girls for Lao Zhang to take back to the inn, Chang Wei and Jiang Chi went to Niu Mangzi's house. After examining the injuries of several people, my heart is already clear.

"The scabbard is infused with internal force, so there is only a little bruise left on the skin, but the bones are broken, this woman is a practitioner. 」

"Then how high is this woman's martial arts, how many people can be ranked in the rivers and lakes?" Jiang Chi didn't know anything about martial arts, in his mind, probably only the Dragon and Tiger List was the only criterion for measuring the level of martial arts.

"This little thing, Ning Xin can do it right now, so all the women on the Dragon and Tiger list are suspicious. Listening to Niu Mangzi's description, the woman is a little similar to Bai Xiu, but no matter how fast the old carriage dealer delivers the news, it will take a while for Fang Huan'er to adjust the personnel to take over the Songjiang Fenglaiyi that Bai Xiu takes care of, and Bai Xiu arrived in Cangzhou so quickly, which is a bit unbelievable.

"That...... Simply ask the Cangzhou government for help, check the contract documents, and see who the buyer is. 」

It didn't take long for Cangzhou Mansion to deliver the results, and the buyer's name was Lian Qingxiu.

"Lian Qingxiu, I remember you seem to have said that the name of the common family in Wudang Qingfeng is called Lian Qingfeng. 」

"Yes, Lian Qingxiu is Qingfeng's half-brother. And that woman, if she guessed correctly, should be Yi Mei'er, the leader of the Hundred Flowers Gang, but her relationship with Qingfeng is Chang Wei's trump card against Wudang, and there is no need to tell Jiang Chi at the moment.

"Although Lian Qingfeng and Lian Qingni are both heads of the same faction, it seems that the Lian family is not begging for a living in the rivers and lakes, why do you say he bought so many girls?" Jiang Chi muttered, "Could it be that he has the same idea as the two of us?"

Chang Wei suddenly came to his senses, because he knew Yi Mei'er's identity, but he was led astray, thinking that the Lian family's move was to expand the strength of the Hundred Flowers Gang. In fact, if you want to train these girls into hands, you have to live in five or seven years, and the overall situation of the rivers and lakes has already been decided at that time. Moreover, the Lian family has the heart to dominate the rivers and lakes, and has been operating secretly in Jiangdong for many years, with a strong foundation, and manpower must not be the main problem.

What really made them jealous was that firstly, because of the New Deal case, the Lian family's power in the DPRK and China suffered heavy losses, and secondly, they could not understand the temper of Chang Wei, the law enforcer of the rivers and lakes, and the news about the rivers and lakes in Beijing was strictly blocked by Chang Wei.

Opening a brothel in the capital can not only get close to the ministers of the DPRK and China, grasp the changes in the political situation, but also wait for the opportunity to explore Chang Wei's strategy for governing the rivers and lakes, in order to gain the first opportunity, which is really a wonderful move.

It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, and they were discovered before they entered Beijing.

"Dongshan, you're right, we've met a new opponent this time. But he sneered in his heart - Lianjia, hum, take Lao Tzu's words as a deaf ear, then let's wait and see!
