Chapter 203 Liu Tang's Birthday Plan

Song Jiang rode a horse and led the people to Dongxi Village soon.

"Song Yasi, what wind brought you here in time for the rain?"

Chao Gai was having wine with some good men in the yard, and when he saw Song Jiang coming, they all stood up to greet him.

"Going to Liangshanbo for some business."

Song Jiang patted his Korean writing bag.

"Going to Liangshanbo? For the matter of the Jeju government army?"

Chao Gai immediately understood what Song Jiang was talking about. The most vicious rumor recently was that Liangshan Sun Lei captured the Jeju army and demanded a ransom from the government.

"Song Yasi, did the Jeju government agree to pay the ransom?"

Wu Yong looked at Song Jiang in surprise, how could the Jeju government agree to such a thing.

"Of course not. It's just that the magistrate asked me to go to Liangshanbo to find out how to solve this matter. Does Professor Wu have a good plan?"

Song Jiang didn't hide anything, he came here just to ask Wu Yong what he could do.

"This... Liangshanbo has now built Liangshan Town around the original Lijiadaokou, and Zhu Gui, the head of Liangshan's support, is in the newly built backbone restaurant..."

Wu Yong talked about the news from the inquiry.

"However, Song Yasi, this Sun Lei is full of evil spirits. He likes to go sideways and is extremely domineering. I'm afraid it will be difficult to ease this matter."

Wu Yong finally looked at Song Jiang and said, Sun Lei has been arrogant and domineering since he dominated Liangshanbo. Now that even the Jeju government army has been defeated, he is even more defiant. Now that he has said that he wants a ransom, he might not obey if he doesn't pay it.

"I also know about this, but the magistrate has orders, so I can only give it a try."

Song Jiang said helplessly.

Chao Gai originally wanted to stay with Song Jiang to drink, but Song Jiang was in a hurry to go to Liangshanbo, so he declined and left Dongxi Village.

"Song Gongming is going to Liangshanbo, I'm afraid he will be angry."

Wu Yong stroked his short beard and said.

"That Sun Lei is domineering, and now the Jeju government army can't take him down, and the gambling stalls near me can't open."

Chao Gai took a sip of wine and gritted his teeth and said, gambling stalls come in quickly, but since Sun Lei wiped out the private gambling shops by the waterside and opened a large gambling shop in Liangshan Town, his few small stalls have never been seen again. Can't go on.

"Brother, I do know a fortune!"

Liu Tang, with red hair and a cinnabar birthmark on his cheek, suddenly spoke.

"Huh? What wealth?"

Chao Gai became interested, and Liu Tang came to join him not long ago.

"One hundred thousand guan's birthday outline! Brother Chao Gai is interested!"

Seeing that there were no outsiders around, Liu Tang said in a low voice.

"One hundred thousand strings? Where did you get so much money? Whose birthday is it?"

When Chao Gai heard it, he really became interested. One hundred thousand guan is a fortune.

"Brother Chao Gai, Liang Zhongshu, a famous mansion in Beijing, buys [-] gold jewels, shells, toys and other things every year, and sends them to Tokyo to celebrate his birthday with his father-in-law, Cai Taishi. Last year, he also sent [-] gold jewels, but he didn't know what happened on the way." Whoever did the robbery has not been caught so far. This year, I bought another [-] gold and jewelry shells. Sooner or later, I have to arrange a trip to catch my birthday on June [-]. I think this is a set of ill-gotten gains, so why not take it .Then Liang Zhongshu and Cai Jing are all greedy and greedy thieves. We take money, and God knows it, and it is not a crime."

Liu Tang looked at Chao Gai and said.

"I heard about this time last year. I don't know who robbed the one hundred thousand treasures. There is no news in the Jianghu. It really is a good method!"

Chao Gai also thought of this, his private business is not limited to smuggling and gambling, he sometimes does such things as robbery, how can he not be tempted by the treasure of [-] guan?
"Baozheng, it's hard to get this money! Last year, Liang Zhongshu lost his birthday card. This year, he must be very careful. If there are large groups of officers and soldiers sending each other, it will be very difficult for us to get it."

Wu Yong said with a frown.

"Brother Chao Gai is a real man, with excellent martial arts skills. The younger brother is not talented, but he can learn some skills. Hugh said that three or five men, even in a team of one or two thousand troops, would not be afraid of him with a gun. If Brother Meng didn't When I give up, I will take a set of wealth. I don’t know what is going on in my brother’s heart?”

Liu Tang didn't care about other things, in his opinion, he just killed all the escorts.

"Brother Liu Tang, don't worry. If you are knowledgeable and resourceful, you will definitely find a good way."

Chao Gai appeased Liu Tang, and then he said, he has been a private businessman for so many years without accidents because of his prudence.

"Baozheng, if you want to succeed, you still need to find a few helpers, find out how to escort the birthday card, and plan it carefully. Just like last year's group, they did it seamlessly, and no clues can be found."

Wu Yong thought for a while and said, Liang Zhongshu is the magistrate of the Daming Prefecture, and Cai Jing is the grand master of the current dynasty. If the matter of the robbery birthday outline is revealed, the consequences will not be acceptable to them.

"Indeed, the Beijing Daming Mansion has many soldiers and generals, and this matter must not be leaked."

Chao Gai nodded. Although he liked the [-] birthday plan, he cared more about his own Chaojiazhuang, and he didn't want to lose this family property because of it.

"I still have to plan? It's less than two months away from June [-]th!"

Liu Tang spoke.

"Enough is enough, I'll go find a few capable heroes to join the gang!"

Wu Yong said, two months is enough time for him to prepare, and he still needs to send someone to the Daming Mansion to check the situation before doing anything.

"I'm relieved to be pedantic!"

Chao Gai laughed and said that he and Wu Yong have not conspired to join the gang once or twice, and he is very clear about Wu Yong's strategy.

"Then I'll go to Daming Mansion first to find out the situation! I'm familiar with it."

Liu Tang spoke.

"Alright, please trouble brother Liu Tang to run over, I'll go get some silver right now."

Chao Gai nodded and went to the village to withdraw money, Liu Tang still needed some expenses to go to Daming Mansion.

"Brother Liu Tang, this visit to the Daming Mansion is just to inquire about news, don't cause trouble, the slightest disturbance of such a confidential matter may startle the snake."

Wu Yong reminded Liu Tang that Liu Tang has a quick temper and is unwilling to suffer at all. He often had disputes with Zhuang Ke in Chaojiazhuang.

"As long as you talk a lot, I know it myself!"

Liu Tang said impatiently that he and Wu Yong didn't get along very well, and he never looked down on this kind of sour scholar who taught.

"Wu Xuejiao is right. This matter is your plan. You should be more careful. If Liang Zhongshu is frightened and he doesn't leave Jeju, how should we start?"

Chao Gai put a bag of silver in front of Liu Tang and said.

"Brother Chao Gai, don't worry, I know this!"

Liu Tang took the silver and got up and left the village.

"He's an impatient person!"

Chao Gai shook his head helplessly.

"Pedestrian, this place is not far from Liangshanbo, if they also see money, what can they do? They have a large number of people, and they must eat alone."

Chao Gai looked at Wu Yong again and said.

"Then we can only do it in advance. Before the birthday card enters Liangshanpo, we will rob it!"

Wu Yong looked at Chao Gai and said.

"Okay, let's find a secluded place and make this thing beautiful."

Chao Gai nodded.

"Baozheng, I'm going to visit some heroes I contacted last time. This requires the cooperation of some skilled people."

Wu Yong also said that although there are many tenants in Chaogai Village, they are all ordinary people, and they can't help with the matter of robbery.
