A knife in love

Chapter 1393

Zhang Shi said with a smile on his face: "Master Li and Master Pan are so confused, it's no wonder Master Xiao is annoyed. But the villain has a few words, I don't know what to say."

When he said this, he didn't continue, but carefully looked at Xiao Dong's face.Xiao Dong glanced at Zhang Shi, and said in his mouth: "Old Zhang, you don't have to have any scruples when speaking in front of me, just say what you want."

Zhang Shi said with a flattering smile: "Yes. Since Mr. Xiao wanted to hear it, the villain has the courage to say it. Whether he is right or wrong, I hope Mr. Xiao will not blame you. Mr. Xiao, we will It was just an accident to come to Dongliao County. Master Li and Master Pan are local snakes. Although they have to help us because of Lord Xiao’s face, it’s hard to say whether they can do their best to help. Look at the villain Lord Li, Master Pan and the others look like greedy people. If we don't give them some benefits, I'm afraid these people may not be willing to do their best..."

Before Zhang Shizhen finished speaking, Xiao Dong sneered and said, "Old Zhang, according to your intention, you want me to bow my head to them and ask them for help?"

Zhang Shi heard the sarcasm in Xiao Dongyu, and hurriedly said: "Master Xiao misunderstood. With Master Xiao's status, how can he condescend to plead with these small officials? The meaning of the villain is to beat and beat Master Li, forcing him to Don't dare not try your best. Otherwise, he will make a fool of himself and drag it on like this, we can't afford it."

Xiao Dong nodded, and said in his mouth: "Then if you have any good ideas, you might as well tell them."

Zhang Shi said with a smile on his face: "Brother Zhu heard from the owner of the Wang Zhuang that Mr. Li had done bad things in Jinan, so he went to Liaodong to be an official. As the saying goes, if you are bitten by a snake once, you will be afraid of the well rope for ten years." As long as Mr. Xiao can beat him with this matter, we are not afraid that Mr. Li will not do our best for us. For example, Mr. Xiao can tell Mr. Li that if this matter is not done well, Mr. Xiao will write a letter to the Liaodong Governor's Yamen and pick him up. What Mr. Li is most afraid of is losing his official position. Hearing what your lord said, how dare he be sloppy? The master surnamed Pan is just a dog of Mr. Li. As long as Mr. Li dare not fool us, the one surnamed Pan Will definitely do my best.”

Xiao Dong took a few steps, and said in his mouth: "If the big ship is really taken away by the pirates of Dashan Island, even if Li Zhisheng, a bastard, is afraid of us and tries his best to help, I'm afraid it won't be of much help."

Zhang Shi smiled and said: "My lord is right, Dashan Island is not under the jurisdiction of Dongliao County. If the big ship is really controlled by pirates, Master Li and Master Pan really have nothing to do with them. But don't forget, my lord, the big ship is The wharf in Dongliao County was stolen. In addition to the disappearance of more than a dozen boats, many people on the shore also disappeared. Such a major event must have been done by a powerful thieves. Master Xiao is an official in the capital. I'm afraid the local government doesn't know much about the many nasty things. If thieves are mobilized, there must be spies helping them secretly. And these spies will be cleared up by the master of the magistrate's yamen in Dongliao County. As long as Mr. Li sincerely does things for us, Pan Master will definitely help us find clues. Then we can follow the vines and find the whereabouts of the big ship. In this way, should we negotiate with the thieves and let them return the big ship, or let Mr. Xiao write a letter to Liaodong Governor’s Yamen, asking them to send officers and soldiers to attack, It will be much easier to take back the big ship and let Master Xiao control it all."

Only then did Xiao Dong understand Zhang Shi's meaning, he was overjoyed, and said: "Old Zhang, you are not only the number one scholar in the business field, but you are also very good at official affairs. When you say that, I have a feeling in my heart." Idea. Later, follow me to the county magistrate's office and beat Li Zhisheng, a fool."

Zhang Shi cupped his hands and said yes, and then said: "However, for people like Mr. Li and Mr. Pan, we must have both kindness and power to make them willing to do things for us. Mr. Xiao suppressed Mr. Li with his power, and then gave them a little sweetness. I don't believe they dare Not trying to help."

Xiao Dong glanced at Zhang Shi and said, "Old Zhang, do you want me to give them money?"

Zhang Shi smiled and said: "It's true to give the money, but you don't need to pay the money. Isn't your lord wearing the customs guard of the Ministry of War? You can write the Liaodong governor's yamen according to this, and offer a reward for finding the big ship. In addition, you can tell Mr. Li that in order to do it To accomplish this, merchants in the city need to pay for their assistance. For example, gambling shops and taverns in the city can collect some money as a help. These matters are left to Master Li and Master Pan, and adults do not need to come forward. In the future, some ignorant Ke Dao censors will be impeached, and the unlucky ones will be Mr. Li, and have nothing to do with Mr. Xiao."

Xiao Dong raised his eyebrows, and said in his mouth: "Old Zhang, I really have you. I'm afraid that Wang Anshi back then didn't have the means to exploit and search like you. I understand what you said. Let's go to the county magistrate's office and find Li Zhisheng chat."

He paused here, and then said to Li Qiufeng: "Brother Zhu has helped us a lot this time, and he will definitely repay us in the future. It seems that the owner of the Wang Zhuang still has something in his stomach, so I should trouble Brother Zhu to keep it." Inquiring about news in Wangjiazhuang, I wonder what brother Zhu wants?"

Li Qiufeng hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "Master Xiao gave him a golden compliment, I am very honored. Since Master Xiao ordered the villain to go back to Wangjiazhuang, how dare the villain disobey his orders?!"

Xiao Dong nodded in satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Today I was extremely depressed. Listening to the two of you talking, I really feel like seeing the blue sky through the clouds and mist. It's not too late, let's split things up."

The three of them said a few more words, and Li Qiufeng left first.Xiao Dong praised him a few words and asked him to rush back to Wangjiazhuang as soon as possible.When Li Qiufeng walked out of the room, he saw shopkeeper Hu leaning against the wall outside the door and taking a nap.Li Qiufeng greeted him with hypocrisy, then hurriedly left Dongsheng Inn and rushed back to Wangjiazhuang.

It was evening when he returned to the palace.A servant took him into the courtyard and led him to the backyard.Li Qiufeng asked as he walked, "Didn't Master Wang enter the city?"

The servant said respectfully: "The master drank a few more glasses at noon, and fell asleep after returning to the house, maybe he hasn't woken up yet."

Li Qiufeng nodded, but the servant went on to say: "The eldest lady and Miss Murong only rested for less than an hour, and then went to practice swords in the back garden. When the eldest lady practiced swords in the morning, Wang Laosan I don't know the seriousness, I ran to the backyard to watch the young lady practice martial arts, and was almost killed by the young lady with a sword. Therefore, everyone knows the rules. I heard that the young lady went to the back garden to practice swords again, so we made an appointment not to go Disturbance from the back garden."

Li Qiufeng thought to himself that Wang Xiaoyu had really put in a lot of hard work, and he must practice martial arts to perfection.It's just that this girl is acting too perversely and viciously. If she really masters martial arts, she may cause a catastrophe.It is necessary to ask Miss Murong to persuade her with good words when teaching her martial arts, so as to remove her hostility, so as not to cause any future troubles.
