Chapter 380
After Zhang Shun inspected his own property, it was getting late, so he made do with spending the night in Baodu Village, and dug the "Baodu Cave" by the way.

In the early morning of the next day, Hong Niangzi and Jian'er got up early to take charge of the planning and construction of the cottage.

Zhang Shun was idle and bored, lying in the warm bed and thinking: Why do I feel like I am playing the game of Heroes now?Now that he has occupied a castle and a gold mine, he expects to recruit troops in the next step.

While thinking about it, he suddenly heard Wukong shouting: "Master is not good, the sufferer has come to the door!"

Zhang Shun was taken aback when he heard the words, he only thought that Huang Lai'er had come to the door, he didn't care about the cold weather, so he put on his clothes indiscriminately and ran out.

He hurriedly asked: "How did this Huang Laier come here? But what kind of wind did you hear?"

Wukong was also taken aback, and asked strangely: "What Huang Laier? I'm talking about Mr. Lu!"

Zhang Shun almost vomited blood when he heard the words, have you ever been reliable, a dead monkey?Fortunately, I believed him once.

Only then did Zhang Shun stabilize his mind, and asked strangely: "Why is Mr. Lu here?"

Wukong scratched it, and guessed hesitantly: "Do you want to avenge Chen Taojin? Or do you want to seek benefits?"

Zhang Shun's eyes widened, and he said murderously: "He has eaten the heart of a bear and the guts of a leopard, what kind of cat or dog would dare to come to the door?"

After speaking, Zhang took Wukong and waited for him to go to the east gate of the cottage to check.As soon as Zhang Shun arrived at the east gate, he saw someone from a distance hanging a white damask on the gate of the village, making a fuss.

Zhang Shun hurried over in three steps at a time, and asked, "What's the noise? Who are you, and why are you making trouble at our gate?"

Seeing Zhang Shun approaching, Song Xiance hurried over and explained in a low voice: "This person is Lu Sanye. Because of his guarantee, we took the opportunity to kill Chen Taojin and ruined his reputation. So he came to us, Looking for death and life!"

Zhang Shun couldn't help being surprised when he heard the words, and asked: "Such a person who hates ghosts, death is not a pity, you don't applaud, how can you cry so bitterly? Could it be that you are also a person who works for tigers?"

The third master Lu was furious when he heard the words, and said angrily: "Where are you from, how can you break the rules so much? Since ancient times, 'rats have the way of rats, and snakes have the way of snakes', how can you be so willful? This even the robber Not as good!"

Zhang Shun couldn't help being overjoyed when he heard the words, hehe, did I meet a living lawful neutral guy?

Song Xiance also felt that he owed this person somewhat, and was about to persuade Zhang Shun for fear of getting angry.Unexpectedly, Zhang Shun smiled and said: "What the old man said is true. No matter what you do, rules are indispensable. This young master is also a man of rules. It is only because the owner of Baodu Village broke the rules first that he will end up today." !"

The third master Lu couldn't help being taken aback when he heard the words, and asked strangely: "How do you say this?" He thought to himself: Didn't you break the rules?Why did they slander Chen Taojin again?

Zhang Shun said with a smile: "My father was originally a man in the officialdom, in charge of the court's criminal law. Chen Taojin stole gold privately, which is a capital crime. But if the people don't raise the official, if he doesn't come to provoke me, I will just turn a blind eye. Just close your eyes!"

"I never thought that my confidant, Liu Yinggui, was spotted by this Chen Taojin a few days ago when he showed his love to you in Sanchuanji. Not only did he kill and injure my family, but he also captured my confidant and asked for ransom money. It's really terrible. What can't be tolerated!"

"This Chen Taojin has already committed a damnable crime, and he has done such a thing. How can I tolerate him? What's more, he murdered and robbed, raped and plundered a lot. Since he has done so well, don't blame others Made fifteen!"

Then Mr. Lu was stunned when he heard the words, unable to refute, but just annoyed: What does this matter have to do with me? Why do you have to ruin my name by doing this?

However, seeing Zhang Shun's ferocity, he didn't dare to argue for a while.

Zhang Shun knew that he was not convinced, so he smiled and said: "Old man, you are a businessman, if you want to know the rules of the sky, you have to rely on force to guarantee it."

"Now that I am the owner of this cottage, your Sanchuanji will be under my protection. I wonder what you want?"

The Sanchuan collection of Mr. Lu was originally protected by Baodu Village, which is one of the reasons why Mr. Lu became angry after losing Chen Taojin.

This place is poor and bad, and there have been many troublemakers since ancient times.Western Henan hairy gourd, wrapped around the head and brain, killing people for a living.Later generations used to be a paradise for bandits, so they know how safe this place is.If it weren't for that Chen Taojin was here, his Sanchuan Ji, Mr. Lu's, would have been looted, even slaughtered!Where is he, Mr. Lu, today?
Lu Sanye's eyes lit up when he heard the words, the bandits along the way were treacherous and deceitful, and they were ruthless, and they were looking for first-class cooperation partners.

Thinking of this, Lu Sanye tentatively asked: "If so, how much will the cottage be withdrawn?"

"In the past, how much did Chen Taojin draw?" Zhang Shun asked rhetorically.

"Chen Thief is fierce, and takes [-]% of the profit!" Lu Sanye quickly stretched out two fingers.

Zhang Shun retorted: "You old man is not real, you bully me when I am young, and you even want to fool me. You really want money but not life, I don't want more from you, only three achievements will do!"

When Lu Sanye heard the words, his face turned red and then pale, so he had to reluctantly agree.In fact, he has long been happy in his heart. Before Chen Taojin was a black hand, he suddenly raised [-]% of the profit.Now that I have earned [-]% more profit, I am lucky.

Zhang Shun didn't know that this guy must have made a profit, but he didn't want to force him too much.After all, Qianglong does not overwhelm local snakes, and since he is new here, he has to rely on these people to support him.

Zhang Shun then invited the Third Master Lu to the village, and after they were seated, they served tea and asked, "Mr. Lu is very polite. I'm a newcomer. I don't know how the situation is here. Please give me some advice."

Then Mr. Lu didn't dare to say anything, stroked his beard before Shi Shiran said: "My Lu family has few people, narrow land and sparse fields, a lot of gold, silver, copper and iron, many mountain treasures and furs, but few grains and miscellaneous grains!"

"Since ancient times, food has been the most important thing for the people! There is little food in the local area, and there are many hunters. Naturally, the people are fierce and difficult to control. Those who are difficult to control in the local area are just 'two heads and one thief'."

"The so-called 'two heads' are mine heads and village heads, and the so-called 'one thief' is bandits. This mine head often occupies a mine, or iron ore, or copper mine, or gold and silver mine. They gather in numbers The number ranges from a hundred to a few thousand. First, mining requires labor, second, fear of other miners stealing and looting, and third, fear of being encircled and robbed by the government. Therefore, each has their own weapons, long spears and heavy arrows, and is quite fierce."

"But Zhuangtou is a large family in the county, owning fields and leaning forward. There are hundreds of tenants, and each household has one person. They cultivate when they are busy, and practice when they are slack. The light ones are resistance to taxes, and the most serious ones are fighting for water and land. The rest of the people Forced by it, they couldn’t settle down. Some simply abandoned their property and went into the mountains as robbers, and some simply raised thieves as a 'talisman'. Therefore, the local bandits and thieves often have a relationship with the people at the foot of the mountain. Every year, the people are like two grains in summer and autumn. Pay taxes to the Shanzhai according to government regulations, and the Shanzhai guarantees that the village will not be plundered by other bandits."

"It's just bandits and thieves. How can there be any benevolent people? There are often people who break the rules and make troubles that destroy the homes of the nearby people and have to move to other places!"

Hearing this, Zhang Shun couldn't help opening his eyes, he came from Shanxi, the land of Zelu in Shanxi was already extremely miserable, he never thought that this land in western Henan was a hundred times worse than Shanxi.
