Chapter 102 Golden Cone Line (13)
"I wonder where Brother Zhou saw this golden cone?"
It was still afternoon, but hot wine and hot dishes were suddenly placed in Juyi Hall. Zhang Xing thought that it was probably the boss of the Mangshan Leader Tower who was the key to this Golden Piece Plan... In fact, it was indeed... at this time, I finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"I haven't seen it with my own eyes before." Boss Zhou smiled, still in his original roughness. "But since I was perfected, I couldn't suppress my temperament and started to travel around the world. I met a life-and-death confidant in Huainan before, and I did hear some stories about it..."
"This is right." Boss Lou stroked his white and fat face, still feeling a little uneasy. "But if you want to know the origin, you must be a real person in the Jianghuai area..."
"My life and death friendship between Zhou Yi is naturally a real big shot." Zhou Laoda smiled jokingly. "As far as I know, only three or four of this golden cone were broken, and this one was only four or five... Each one is a first-class big shot, a great hero, Brother Zhang said it was given to him by Boss Zuo on the Huaihe River. I thought this origin was very appropriate, and his previous words and attitude made people unable to make mistakes. It was only this statement that nodded and accepted the assumption."
"I think so too." Now, Boss Lou could only nod...
Having said that, after drinking two glasses of wine, Boss Lou looked at another person, but it was Boss Han who had taken the initiative to consider the idle people before.
Seeing this, Boss Han just bowed and smiled bitterly: "At present, if I don't say it, I'm afraid you won't believe it... In fact, I am the old person of the Master Jin Ci family, and I was ordered here... but I was only ordered here. There was no explanation above. I just saw Jin Ci and knew that I should come forward by myself, that's all."
Boss Lou heard this and didn't know what to say.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Yi asked at this time: "What is the origin of Boss Lou? The foundation of the Jianghuai area is now directly involved in Mangdang Mountain, and Mangdang Mountain almost swept the forces of Huaibei together. Why do you think that you are the only one in the mountain with others, and you are the only one in the mountain knowing the obstacles?"
Boss Lou smiled awkwardly: "I underestimated others and underestimated you all. In fact, it was because of the real foundation and influence of that person... Rather than saying that I am that person, it is better to say that I have a closer relationship with Master Zuo Er. This time, Mr. Zuo ordered me to come here to do this business, and Mr. Zuo actually has a golden cone."
Only then did Zhang Xing realize that only Boss Han was Chen Ling's direct confidant.
Others, including figures of Boss Lou and Boss Zhou, have indirectly influenced and controlled... and this is more in line with the current situation.
It should be known that the Zhongli Chen family is the most powerful in Jianghuai. Now the Chen Ling, who is in charge, is also at the same time, and family mottos are very similar. There is no need to deliberately collude in the village. It is so complicated that it also loses its grade. As long as he holds the soldiers in his hands and protects the situation of these powerful people from the overall situation... When it really comes, it should be his pot, and of course it is his pot.
From the moment, the three Zuo brothers who were really working hard to do this are obviously one level lower than Chen Ling. The three Zuo brothers are both black and white, and are also earth-shaking tigers. However, the three brothers made a fortune by this generation, that is, the second brother's cultivation and the third brother's official position suddenly emerged. Although they are very arrogant, they cannot help but lose their structure and level in terms of foundation and strategy.
But now I really don’t know what Zuo is trying to do this? But Zuo’s main market, that is, the Whale Gang, is the one who earns this bowl of rice, and has direct interests and any operations. There are explanations.
Moreover, what does it have to do with him, Zhang Zirong?
In the current situation, everyone has their own cognition and level, which is just right for him, Mr. Zhang, cheating and taking advantage of the troubled waters.
Just as he was thinking, the boss of Lou suddenly came to raise his glass and smiled at Zhang Xing: "Master Zhang San, we are all the people!"
Zhang Xing could only raise his glass with a wry smile: "It's just a letter delivery!"
"The sender is the true confidant." The boss Zhao, who had not said anything, suddenly interrupted, but took the opportunity to put down the wine glass and responded angrily. "Everyone, I can trust Boss Zhou, Boss Lou and Boss Han. Since these three are here to protect me, I am willing to do this business. I just talk about it one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one,
"Thank you, Mr. Zhao, this is the thing." Boss Han quickly touched. "Although Mr. Zhang San brought the token of my benefactor, he just came to ensure that this business would not be suppressed by the Longgang Army Brigade. The business itself is more meaningful, and this is also in line with Boss Lou... Therefore, it doesn't matter whether my benefactor's name is known or not."
Boss Zhao just sneered and shook his head: "I just think we don't deserve to know."
At the beginning, Wang, the 'neighbor' who had met Zhang Xing in advance, also came to stir up a smile, but pointed it at Zhang Xing: "Actually, it's okay if we are worthy or not, because now, including Zhou and Boss Lou, all four of us are going to do this business. Can we still not go? But Mr. Zhang, you, have worked so hard to send a message, and have merged one person, worked hard to get through the church, worked hard, and then led the team to fight a battle in person, but you don't want to know who the big dealer dares to suppress the Longgang army?"
"Of course I want to know." Zhang Xing simply answered. "But I want to consolidate our Uncle Zuo's orders, so I can't speak when I go back and see Mr. Zuo... Everyone, I know you have to inquire about the authenticity of the information in private, but can you make a statement? When will the troops be sent? Our Master Zuo asked me to come here because the matter was urgent. Once it was too late, the convoy would be completely unable to touch it after crossing Longgang!"
"How many days will there be a chance?" Boss Wang wanted to say a few words without any yin and yang. Boss Zhou, who was at the top, suddenly spoke coldly, forcing the former to shut up immediately.
"The next day, the next day is two days opportunity." Zhang Xing blurted out.
"So urgent?"
"If there is no hurry, you don't need your brother to come so quickly with the golden cone." Zhang Xing responded earnestly. "I have calculated that the only opportunity to take action is after the convoy passed Linhuan County and arrived at Chengfu County on the Wo Shui... It's early, we can't reach it. It's too late, let's not say that they have crossed the Wo Shui from Chengfu, Longgang's army is right in front of him and cannot rob... That is, from the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month to the 24th day of the next day, we need to send troops quickly."
"Boss Zuo or Brother Zhang, do you have any plans?" Zhou Yi continued to ask.
"Our Zuo did not say it, but I have an explanation for myself, that is, to mobilize troops to go to Jishan tomorrow first... As we walked, the bosses were looking for news to Huanshui. If we felt that our Zuo did not mean to harm you, we would not stop for a moment, and Jishan gathered Xu Dangjia and rushed over directly; and if we felt that our Zuo was not trustworthy, or there were any other faults on the road, it would not prevent us from stopping in Jishan, or going south to continue to find trouble for the fleet." Zhang Xing's words were smooth, as if he had really considered it.
"It makes sense." Zhou Yi nodded. "Brother Zhang is considering it all... But there is another thing. There are several wild strands in the East Gate on Yutou Mountain... There are quite a few of them, and they are not involved with Jianghuai. I'm afraid it's hard to convince them with a golden cone."
"As long as you send troops, you can't help them in the brigade." Boss Zhao said in a muffled voice.
"Boss Zhou is just afraid that they will not send troops." Boss Wang was powerless to complain.
"About this matter." Zhang Xing suddenly looked up. "To be honest, Mr. Zuo from my family sent me here specifically, and there is an explanation... In my resume, the relationship between Luolongtan and Xu Dalang in the East is not fake. The brothers who were traveling with him were also from the East. This time, I saw an acquaintance from the East is called Du Po Formation from the mountain to investigate the situation... It was for this matter that this wealthy job fell on me... Before I came to see the old man, I had already asked my brother from the East to find Du Po Formation to the Immortal Cave."
"This is all right!" Boss Lou sighed. "The Zuo family's masters are really proper, clever and meticulous!"
"Isn't it still under the old master Han's enthrone?" Boss Zhao continued to speak in a silence.
"Okay." Zhou Yi suddenly stood up. "I'll decide the result... If anyone is not convinced, I'll say it on the spot."
The others were still hesitating, Zhang Xing suddenly stood up and acted obediently, which also attracted several other bosses to stand up one after another.
"The opportunity is rare. Several old men from the Mengzuo family and the Huai Shang are also reported by Brother Zhang. We really can't delay... We should take action, otherwise how can we get rich?" Zhou Yi said seriously. "Brother Zhang will go to Du Pozhen in private later. We will post together to explain clearly to the people in Yutoushan. One by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, we will force them to send troops tomorrow! We will not wait for the deadline! The plan to send troops will be done according to the two-way method that Brother Zhang said! As for whoever has doubts, I understand, and just walk and inquire at the same time... As for the name of that person, Xiao Zhao should not be anxious. When I arrive in Jishan, I will talk to you bosses in person! In short, I have thousands of words, just ask everyone to make a fortune with me this year and not be poor next year!"
When everyone heard it at the end, they obviously had some reactions and thoughts.
But at this moment, Zhang Xing took the lead in yelling: "Follow Boss Zhou and make a fortune this year!"
The others were helpless, and finally joined forces and shouted: "Follow Boss Zhou and make a fortune this year!"
After shouting this sentence, Zhang Xing suddenly clapped again, clapping his palms red, forcing the rest of them to look sideways and applaud together, which made Boss Zhou feel embarrassed for a while and said that the manners of Brother Zhang’s in the public sect were not desirable, but he was proud and proud.
At this point, Zhang Xing finally passed the court and used the Golden Cone Scheme he suddenly decided to do, and it was a great success... It can only be said that his judgment when he came was wrong, and his ulterior motives were in chaos. The Mangdang Mountain, which had its own ulterior motives, was more than ten times easier to deal with than Chen Ling.
But the matter is not over yet, he still has a huge hole to fill, and it is the only hard hole on this trip... Moreover, he really said goodbye to the bosses in the name of this incident and turned around and went first.
Back at the immortal cave, he called Chef Fan to come and put some hot wine, and then put a fire on the stone slab to slowly barbecue. After eating three barbecue, five or six glasses of ice wine, Du Pozhen's old face, which had been through life, finally appeared in front of Zhang Xing with Qin Bao.
Seeing this person coming, Zhang Xing immediately came to see Chef Fan who was eating from the other side: "San Zheng, thank you for your hard work, Boss Du is like a close brother, and he wants to say something that someone will silence you if you are eavesdropped."
Chef Fan was stunned for a moment, and could only rub his hands, pick up a bowl of jerky, and walked out while chewing, walking for seventy or eighty steps. Seeing Qin Er standing in the middle of thirty-four steps, he sat down to eat jerky.
On the other side, watching the people around him walk cleanly, Du Pozhen sat down calmly, shook his head with emotion:
"Terror, hard-working Sanlang... Zhang Sanlang, you and Qin Erlang are so brave!"
"Boss Du is the real courage. He dares to go that day and come today!" Zhang Xing reached out to invite him. "Let's drink two glasses of hot wine to save the delay in talking about things later."
"Okay." Du Pozhen took the wine, poured himself a drink, ate five or six glasses of wine, chewed seven or eight pieces of meat, then put down his hands and quietly looked at the other party.
"The wise man doesn't say secret words." Zhang Xing thought for a while and spoke directly. "The food on the Huan Water is of great importance and will never be robbed. I was ordered to lure the people from Mangdang Mountain to pass the Huan Water and join the official army's net, hoping that Boss Du can help me."
"Then I won't say anything secretly." Du Pozhen sat in front of the stone slab and calmly responded. "Zhang Sanlang said ten thousand great truths today, and I can't agree."
"If you don't agree, you will have to be in a life-and-death relationship?"
"The fundamental truth is between officials and bandits, life and death are the opposite." Du Pozhen's expression remained unchanged. "On the contrary, fewer people meet so honestly."
"Boss Du." Zhang Xing thought for a while and said seriously. "Our rare encounter. With such a striking friendship, don't say these nonsense. You tell your interests and I will make my knowledge right, and I will make up for it again if I succeed or not... how?"
"If I hadn't seen the encounter that day and had similar intentions, I wouldn't have come." Du Pozhen reached out to answer. "Zhang Sanlang said first."
"The first is the origin of this food." Zhang Xing said clearly. "The taxes in Jiangdong are half higher than those in the East... This time the food was not something that could not be replenished, but that it was really insufficient and had to be delayed until today. It was even more difficult for our patrol team to work hard to prevent the people from searching for them from the wealthy families... Once they are robbed, Jiangdong may have to pay taxes, and then they may be hungry all over the ground."
Du Pozhen's face turned black and he was silent for a while before speaking: "This is because the court's exploitation is too heavy."
"I know." Zhang Xing nodded calmly.
"Do you know?" Du Pozhen sneered.
"I know!" Zhang Xing nodded seriously again.
Du Pozhi finally fell silent.
"Secondly, the real bandit leaders on the mountain have their own roots. Boss Lou is a member of the Zuo of the Whale Gang; Boss Zhou is an old friend of Chen Ling, the general of Yingyang on Longgang; Boss Han is simply a subordinate of Chen Ling... Chen Ling regards the powerful Jianghuai and the bandits in Mangdang Mountain as their own private property, and the Whale Gang also wants to take advantage of the bandit power... What you think is black may be white, what you think is white may be black... The Juyi Hall is almost all of the local tyrants who have been around for decades and hundreds of years and the so-called heroes who have been preparing to take away the wealth and goods. You are the real bandits from the East." Zhang Xing continued to talk.
"I know." It was Du Pozhen's turn to say this calmly.
But this time, Zhang Xing did not ask questions like the other party. Instead, he picked up the chopsticks and knocked on the stone slab, and jingled for a moment: "You know that they are all fake and bad, why do you still have to follow them to do things?"
The skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a s
"Because of poverty, because of hunger, because of desolation." Du Pozhen twisted his neck, stared at the other party seriously, and said slowly. "Because my brothers are as poor as me, as hungry, and as desolation... Zhang Sanlang once told me that he had been in a state of decline, but he must have been as desolation as me... When I was a teenager, my family was in a state of decline. The poor were in the wilderness and the earth was mat. The hungry ones went to steal the sheep from my friend's house, and he stole one after another. He just couldn't see him. Finally, his aunt discovered him and sued the official and forced me to do so. We fled to other places together. When we arrived in other places, I would be much more justified, because I could not let my brothers who escaped from the monk for me be as hungry as me... Zhang Sanlang, I ask you, today all my brothers are so poor that they are coming from Dongjing to beg for life. Now there is official grain in front of you, so you have a lot of reason. How can I not steal other brothers to eat for my brother? Besides, if I take a step back, don’t steal official grain, do you still have to steal sheep from poor families?”
Zhang Xing was silent for a long time, so that Qin Bao looked back several times.
Gradually, Du Po Formation became a little impatient.
But finally, I had a bold plan in my mind. Zhang Xing, who was more determined after Juyitang today, decided to ask a key question slowly: "Who is your brother?"
Du Pozhen was stunned for a moment, then quickly woke up and lowered his head to answer: "Of course it is my own two or three hundred brothers... But Zhang Sanlang, even though you are an official, I still recognize you as half of your brother."
"This is my blessing." Zhang Xing felt very calm. "But now, you just want to find a way out for your brothers, right? You don't care about anything else? Because you are so poor that you don't care about anything else, right? The tens of thousands of people on Mangdang Mountain are not your loyalty, right?"
"Yes... are all." Du Pozhen sighed long and said with difficulty. "But Zhang Sanlang, no matter what, I must behave in rules and loyal to my brothers. They are waiting for me to give them a way to live, and you don't give them a way to live."
"If I give you a big way to live and ask you to bring tens of thousands of brothers, can you still behave and loyal to them?" Zhang Xing suddenly asked an inexplicable sentence.
"What does it mean?" Du Pozhen frowned slightly.
"If I can think of a way to recommend you to replace the Zuo family and do the Huanshuikou business, would you like to take over?" Zhang Xing said something shockingly.
"How..." Du Pozhen wanted to question, but then he thought of the other party's identity and background, but he was silent again. After a moment, he simply nodded. "I think it's OK."
"Things are not that simple." This time, it was Zhang Xing's turn to shake his head. "First of all, you have to cooperate with me and do this... Secondly, you have to wait for me and the inspector to take advantage of the situation to deal with the Zuo brothers after the New Year... Finally, after you have mastered the whale gang, you must try to collect the idle men who were broken up and fled on Mangdang Mountain and raise them as much as possible... If you do things well, it will be a good thing to win three goals. If you end up living a great way, I will be able to even this irrelevant idle men on Mangdang Mountain who can be worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth."
Du Pozhen thought for a moment, neither shook his head nor nodded: "If you can have this future and let your brothers not steal sheep, how can you not accompany you to do this... It's just a small business that makes your brothers find a way out. Secondly, I recognize you as half a brother, and you say this, how can you not bet with you? It's just the last one..."
"How about the last one?" Zhang Xing frowned.
"Is the last one a little difficult?" Du Pozhen asked seriously. "The Changjing Gang originally had more than 10,000 boatmen, but suddenly thousands of idle men came again... can they support them?"
Zhang Xing finally raised his head and laughed: "Brother Du has never done such a big business, right?"
"It's true that he is from a humble background." Du Pozhen said something, not angry at all. "And he's humble for the rest of his life."
"Then let me say it!" Zhang Xing lay on the leopard skin with blood stains behind him, took out his chopsticks and tapped on the stone slab in front, and immediately felt like he was pointing out the country on the keyboard. "There are two things in the world. One is to make the cake bigger... This is difficult, and I have no idea yet, so let's not talk about it for now; the other is to divide the cake... Logically speaking, the leftovers of each person can still save it to do other things, but in fact, the top people would rather eat a bite and throw a hundred bites, or pile up the cakes and watch it have fun, and force ten people below to share it."
"This is honest." Du Pozhen sighed deeply.
"Those who farm cannot eat enough; those who raise silkworms cannot wear silk; those who build houses do not have a place to stand; those who make irons do not have a good pot... This has been the case since ancient times." Zhang Xingben wanted to make a long speech and enjoy his mouth, but after saying a few words, he felt bored and could only shake his head. "Do you know how you exposed your flaws last time? Because those deacons are all delicious and sweet, and are used to being pampered, how can they still be as calluses as you, and their fingers are full of wounds?"
"I understand." Du Pozhen suddenly said. "You want to say that the Lishi of Changjing Gang is enough to raise half of the people, but they are all eaten by the helmsman, deacon, guardian and gang leader themselves... So, as long as I become the leader of Changjing Gang, I can still think of the gang members. I am usually in accordance with rules and loyalty to my brothers now, and I will definitely be able to support them... right?"
"Yes." Zhang Xing nodded softly.
"Since that's the case," Du Pozhen suddenly stood up and bowed in front of the stone slab. "Please take our other brothers for a ride!"
Zhang Xing felt relieved and had been sitting for seven or eight breaths before getting up. Then he suddenly jumped onto the big stone slab and shouted loudly in the immortal cave, which shocked everyone in the cave to see:
"Since that's the case, please ask Boss Du and all your brothers to follow me, Zhang San, and make a fortune in the New Year!"
PS: I wish you all a happy new year!
Thanks to the second battalion commander Shang Meng and Mr. Wang for their rewards!
Chapter completed!
