A knife in love

Chapter 2578
After the surname Liu finished speaking, he nodded and bowed to let Li Qiufeng stand in front of Shimen.Li Qiufeng bowed his hands to the four thieves, and immediately led Murong Danyan and Wang Xiaoyu through the stone gate and arrived at the gate of the king's house.Standing in front of the door, Li Qiufeng turned his head to look at the stone wall behind him, and saw countless thieves busy on the stone wall, constantly piling bricks and stones on the stone wall.Wang Xiaoyu walked towards the courtyard with Li Qiufeng, and said in a low voice: "These green forest thieves usually kill people and sell goods, but they would also do masonry work. It only took more than an hour to build a high wall."

Li Qiufeng chuckled, and said: "Miss Wang, don't underestimate these people. They occupy the mountains as kings, and fall into the grass as bandits. If they want to resist the siege of officers, soldiers and other thieves, they must build camps in the mountains. It seems extremely difficult to build a high wall with stones, but these guys are familiar with it. What's more, they have demolished many houses and have ready-made bricks and stones, which is much easier than picking up stones in the mountains to build a camp."

When Li Qiufeng said this, he paused for a while, and then continued: "It is not uncommon for thieves to build stone walls. What is admirable is that Jinyulou can make these seemingly incompatible thieves obediently obey orders, letting them do their own thing, but Well-organized. This ability to lead troops is really rare in the world."

When Li Qiufeng spoke, the three of them had already walked into the palace compound.I saw Zhou Han standing on the right side of the yard, talking to a dozen green forest thieves.Wang Xiaoyu saw Zhou Zhai's chest and stomach folded, with a smug expression on his face, and thought to himself that this villain, relying on Jin Yiwei and Jin Yulou to support him, pretended to be a tiger in front of the green forest thieves, so ridiculous.Thinking of this, she deliberately coughed and said with a smile: "Master Zhou, what are you doing here?"

Zhou Han heard someone talking, turned his head and saw Li Qiufeng, Murong Danyan, and Wang Xiaoyu walking into the yard.He was startled for a moment, then with a smile on his face, he hurried forward to meet the three of them, and was about to bow down in front of the three of them, when Li Qiufeng gave him a hasty wink, cupped his hands first and said, "I will see the village master."

Only then did Zhou Han remember that Li Qiufeng had once told him that the identities of the three people must not be revealed. He cursed himself in his heart to be damned, and hurriedly stood up straight, coughed twice, and said in his mouth: "Where did you go just now? I I'm so busy here, why don't you come and help?"

Li Qiufeng said respectfully: "I have been ordered by the master of Jinzhai to go outside the village to inquire about the news. We went around the outside of the village and found no suspicious person watching, so we rushed back to report to the master of Jinzhai. Come back."

Zhou Han nodded after hearing what Li Qiufeng said, and said in his mouth: "In this case, you should go and see the master of the Jin village as soon as possible. He was discussing with several village masters in the study in the backyard. After you met him, if you still If you have anything to do, come to me again. Just now, the master of Jinzhai has ordered that so many heroes from the green forest gather in the village, and they must prepare food and clean water. He asked me to take care of this matter. I found a few reliable people Friends from the green forest, we will take them to the county town to buy food and meat."

Hearing what Zhou Han said, Li Qiufeng admired Jinyulou even more in his heart, thinking to himself that the saying goes before the army moves, the food and grass go first.Right now there are 2000 people gathered in Zhuangzi, if there is no food, grass and clear water, before the Japanese pirates come to attack, these thieves will start to mess up first.I didn't think about this joint at all, but Jin Yulou had already sent Zhou Han to buy food, and this person was far more thoughtful than me.With his help, even if the Japanese pirates cannot be defeated, the Fusang army can be dragged here longer.

When Wang Xiaoyu saw Zhou Han talking, his face was filled with unconcealable complacency, and he thought to himself that buying food was a fat job, and this villain got this good job, and he was bound to fill his own pocket and make a lot of money.Although Jin Yulou was shrewd, he was probably blinded by this villain.Entrusting such an important matter to this villain will definitely miss a big deal.

Thinking of this, Wang Xiaoyu was about to remind Li Qiufeng, but Zhou Han was standing beside him, unable to speak for a while, and couldn't help but secretly worried.Fortunately, after Li Qiufeng said a few words to Zhou Han, he walked towards the corner gate.Wang Xiaoyu followed closely behind Li Qiufeng. After passing through the corner gate, Wang Xiaoyu looked around and said to Li Qiufeng in a low voice: "Hero Li, Zhou Han is a greedy and shameless villain. Buying food and grass It's a big deal, and if you leave it to Zhou Han, a villain, you must make a mistake. Jin Yulou is so shrewd, how could he be deceived by Zhou Han?!"

Li Qiufeng shook his head, and said: "Miss Wang, when Liu Shengdan Mashou and Morita Shinobu took control of the Wang family village, who bought food for the Wang family?"

Wang Xiaoyu didn't expect Li Qiufeng to ask such a question, so he was taken aback, thought for a moment, and then said: "Well, there are more than 50 people eating in our house every day, and it stands to reason that the old man Morita should be responsible for purchasing food." The guy handles it himself. It’s just that he often goes out with Liu Shengdan and Ma Shou, and there are many things to do when he stays in Zhuangzi, so the purchase of food is handed over to Zhang Wushu and Tang Niu..."

When Wang Xiaoyu said this, he suddenly stopped talking, with a surprised expression on his face.Seeing Wang Xiaoyu's appearance like this, Murong Danyan was startled, and whispered, "Sister Xiaoyu, what's wrong with you?"

Wang Xiaoyu said in a trembling voice: "Uncle Zhang and Uncle Zhang are stingy by nature, and usually get even a penny into their own pockets. Tang Niu likes to gamble, but every time he gambles, he always loses, and he owes a lot of money to the gamblers in the village. This time Yagyudan Mashou and Morita Shinobu punished him several times, and even beat him dozens of boards, but Tang Niu's habit of gambling has never been corrected..."

Murong Danyan listened to Wang Xiaoyu's words, but the more he listened, the more confused he became. He thought to himself that it was a bit strange for Brother Li and Sister Xiaoyu to speak just now.The two of them were clearly talking about why Jinyulou asked a greedy and despicable villain like Zhou Han to handle such important matters as purchasing grain and grass, but they talked about how the Wang family bought grain in the past.What is the relationship between the Wang family's purchase of grain and Zhou Han's purchase of grain and grass?Could it be that Liu Shengdan Mashou, an old thief, had already prepared to accumulate food in the Wang family. Brother Li asked the person who bought the food in the Wang family before, so that Sister Xiaoyu could help him find the food that Liu Shengdan Ma Shou had accumulated before?
When Murong Danyan was thinking about it, he heard Li Qiufeng say in a deep voice: "The surname Zhang is stingy, he won't even let go of a penny, he must be very greedy. The surname Tang is good at gambling, he lost a lot of money, and he wants to try his best Find a way to get money to pay off the debt. With Yagyu Tan Mamoru and Morita Shinobu's wise plan, why do you have to entrust them with such important matters as purchasing food?"

At this time, Wang Xiaoyu had already guessed why Li Qiufeng mentioned the purchase of grain by the Wang residence.She thought for a while, and then said to Li Qiufeng: "Uncle Zhang Wu and Tang Niu both try to get money in different ways. Although these two people are not very clean, they are the most calculating. The two traitors Liu Shengdan, Ma Shou and Morita Ren Zhang and Tang purchased grain because they would definitely embezzle it when purchasing grain, but in order to make a fortune, they must handle the procurement of grain properly. Otherwise, they will definitely be punished if they do not do well. Yagyudan Mamoru and Morita Shinobu changing their errands is tantamount to cutting off their livelihoods. Anyway, they have to spend money to buy food, so it is much safer for these two greedy villains to do this errand than others."
