Chapter 1117 Entering Laojingou for the first time

When a newcomer arrives at Lao Jingou, the first thing he needs to do is report to the Imperial Financial Office.

In Laojingou, although the foremen and bosses of various work teams have good status, the bandit gangs are even more arrogant.

But as long as the Manchu and Qing government did not collapse, it was the Qing government that had the greatest say in Lao Jingou.

Although the Qing government was submissive externally, it was absolutely heavy-handed internally.

Because it had to pay large amounts of compensation to various factions, the Qing government needed gold and silver.

They also paid special attention to the gold mines and sent many Qing troops to guard them.

After all, in this era, whoever has the biggest fist has the loudest voice.

Although the Green Camp soldiers are relatively useless and flee when encountering a fight, they are considered professional counterparts in bullying the common people.

This financial office in Laojingou is also considered a court unit, so its area is naturally quite large.

But he couldn't stop it. Someone wanted to lure Zhu Kaishan back and recruit workers on a large scale.

We have recruited many more people than before.

When Zhu Chuanwen and his group arrived, the room, which was not a small one, was already densely packed with people.

Jin Bantou arranged for Zhu Chuanwen and his gang to register at the counter.

A young man fell into the trap, wandered over, and bumped into Zhu Kaishan.

Zhu Kaishan's physique is as strong as an ox. Even if he is a young man, he can be considered a big man from Guandong, but there is no way he can be Zhu Kaishan's opponent.

Zhu Kaishan didn't move at all and pushed the young man to stagger. After the young man stood firm, he cursed at Zhu Kaishan:
"Get out of the way, do you have eyes? You are blind!"

Seeing the young man speaking rudely to Zhu Kaishan, Zhu Chuanwen directly kicked him: "Fuck you, you don't have eyes. You are blind and can't see people. Can't you even apologize if you bump into someone?"

"Damn it, are you looking for a fight?"

After the young man got up from the ground, he felt that he had lost face, and with a dissatisfied look on his face, he rushed towards Zhu Chuanwen.

Zhu Chuanwen also didn't want to show that he was too abnormal and didn't use much force.

It gave the young man the illusion that he could practice with Zhu Chuanwen.

"Pah!" Seeing the young man rushing over, Zhu Chuanwen slapped him with a big mouth: "Your mouth is itchy, isn't it? If you want to be a bitch, I will stop you from this bad habit."

"What the fuck..." The young man covered his face and prepared to continue spitting out the fragrance.

When Zhu Chuanwen saw it, he slapped the big mouth on the right again with his backhand: "You still can't keep your mouth shut, right?"

"Sneak attack, right?"

The consequence of not being aggressive was that after Zhu Chuanwen's two big mouths, this young man still couldn't recognize the difference between the two people. He rolled up his sleeves and still wanted to take action.

"Don't fight. We'll all work together from now on. We'll see each other if we don't look up and look down."

Several people from Zhu Chuanwen's group were afraid that things would get bigger, so they grabbed the young man who was causing trouble.

These people were relatively honest, and they didn't dare to cause trouble when they saw a few Qing soldiers standing in the room.

"Wen, forget it."

Zhu Kaishan here also grabbed Zhu Chuanwen.

"I'm not done with you."

Although he was being pulled, the young man still wanted to step forward with all his teeth and claws.

When it comes to fighting, there aren't many cowards in this land.

"Let him go, and I'll see what he can do."

Zhu Chuanwen also said to the few people who were trying to break up the fight that since there was a fight, he had to calm down and convince them before talking.

"Stop making trouble and go register at the counter. Do you want to make money?"

Foreman Dana Jin scolded a group of people before the young man calmed down.

"what is it call?"

"Where are you from?"

"how old are you?"

“Ever panned for gold before?”

“Have you been to Laojingou before?”

"No, why don't you look angry?"

In the past, goldworkers who came to Laojingou to prospect for gold might just register a random name in the gold book.

But now the government wants to fish, and when they meet middle-aged people of the same age as the dead He Laosi, they will always ask more questions and try to deceive him into something.

When Zhu Chuanwen registered, there were no problems.

Zhu Kaishan, a man of similar age and strong body, was asked a lot of questions.

"Niu Dejin, Lao Yan'er, big gold nugget, small gold nugget. And you, father and son, you are a team. You are the leader of the big gold nugget."

After making the book, Jinda divided the people into several piles and separated them into several piles.

Da Jinli is the spirited young man who was slapped by Zhu Chuanwen several times.

The main reason why this person is so arrogant in Laojingou, like a fool, is that he is an old gold digger.

No matter what industry, most people have the bad habit of bullying newcomers.

The big gold nugget can be the leader. It is also this group of people. This big gold nugget has the experience of gold panning.

"Have you heard, the foreman appointed me as the leader, you all have to obey me." Da Jinli raised his head and said to a few proud people with his lower handle.

It is obvious that a villain has his way, and he is relying on the power of others.

"Listen to your sister. You ask everyone to listen to you. If you can't find gold, do you agree to everyone giving you your legs? If you can agree, everyone will listen to you?"

Zhu Chuanwen couldn't see this person being so cool, so he just shouted back.

You must not get used to this kind of people who push their noses and faces.

Zhu Chuanwen never let Zhu Kaishan be too exposed, just because he didn't want to be bullied at the gold field.

As long as you don't pay so much attention to He Laosi, doing other things is nothing.

It doesn't matter if the food and accommodation here are poor, at least I feel happy.

In this chaotic and ruleless era, Zhu Chuanwen does not need to suppress himself.

"Stop arguing, I'll arrange a place for you to stay."

Dana Jin did not interfere much in the disputes within the small group.

In a small group, as long as there is one person who can lead the work, it doesn't really matter who it is.

"Everyone follow me."

More than a hundred people belonging to Jinda, under the leadership of various leaders, followed Jinda away.

"You guys live in this house."

Dana Jin pointed to a dilapidated wooden house and said to Zhu Chuanwen and his group.

After being divided into a group, several people not only work together but also live together.

For the miners at the bottom, the only place they could sleep was a big kang and a big bunk bed.

After arriving at Laojingou, Zhu Chuanwen had a better understanding of the ecology of Laojingou.

The mineral vein of Laojingou is now divided into many pieces. Each piece has a foreman who helps the government manage the gold miners.

The golden leader who recruited Zhu Chuanwen had something to do with Dana Jin, and was considered a subordinate of Dana Kim.

After people like Zhu Chuanwen came in, they had no choice but to be Dana Jin's people.

Zhu Kaishan's brother He Laosi was also a foreman in Lao Jingou.

It's actually on the same level as the current Jinda.

After arranging the house, the first thing to do is tidy up.

Not only was the house dilapidated, but it had not been lived in for several months.

Many land-related jobs in the Northeast can only be done seven or eight months a year.

Gold panning requires digging pits and flowing water. Of course, it is impossible to do it in the Northeast winter when the soil and water are frozen.

Therefore, the gold miners here in Laojingou used to come to work in the spring and then go home to spend the winter.

In the coldest winter, there are not many people left in Laojingou, so the house naturally becomes empty. "Dad, let's go out and have a look?"

After laying out the bedding for the two of them, Zhu Chuanwen asked Zhu Kaishan.

After ten people entered the room, it became smoky and not a suitable place to stay.

For now, it is just a temporary settlement, and metalworkers still cannot do work in Laojingou.

In order to make it easier to walk around Caodianzi, Laojingou can only recruit metal workers to Laojingou before spring.

But after coming in, we have to wait until the spring warms and thaws before we can work.

Therefore, this period of time belongs to the free time of metalworkers.

Although nature is good, if you don’t work, you won’t have money.

If it weren't for the fact that the foremen don't care about food and many people don't have food to eat, maybe these foremen don't even want to care about food.

When the Manchus exploited people, they were even more black-hearted than the black-hearted capitalists.

"Okay, I heard that the tavern here is busy, let's go take a look."

Zhu Kaishan responded, and then the father and son went out together, and Zhu Kaishan acted as if he had never been here before.

The father and son lived in Laojingou and wandered aimlessly.

A foreman occupies a place and lives in a separate situation.

The various foremen are in a state of competition, it is impossible to live in harmony, and their territories are clearly divided.

A little further away from this activity area is a public activity area for everyone in Laojingou.

Everything a man needs is available here.

There are many pubs, opium dens, brothels, gambling houses, pornography, gambling and drugs.

"Bring us a pot of soju."

These places are suitable for the two of them to come together, which is the pub.

When all the metalworkers in Jingou had nothing to do, the tavern was undoubtedly one of the liveliest places.

Anyone who has traveled around the world knows that the best place to get information is a place like a tavern.

There are a lot of people drinking and chatting here, and there is the most amount of true and false news.

"You two gentlemen, is this your first time here?"

There were only two people serving customers outside the tavern, a runaway and the proprietress.

Seeing the two men sitting down, the proprietress in the tavern, who still had some charm left, walked over with a flask in hand.

It is obvious that now Lao Jingou, a middle-aged man of Zhu Kaishan's age, is born to be remembered.

Zhu Kaishan is tall and strong, and even if he pretends to be a coward, he doesn't look like an ordinary person.

"This is my first time here. What do you call the shopkeeper?"

Zhu Kaishan nodded and asked politely.

The proprietress was wondering if Zhu Kaishan was He Laosi's brother, and Zhu Kaishan was also wondering about getting close to the proprietress and asking for information.

This wave is going in both directions again.

"Just call me big black girl. What are your last names?"

The middle-aged woman, the landlady, sat down opposite Zhu Kaishan.

The nickname "Big Black Girl" is indeed quite realistic. The boss lady's skin is indeed on the darker side.

He looks like someone who can do business and is quite familiar with him.

"My surname is Zhu, my name is Boss Zhu, and this is my son, Zhu Xiaowen."

Zhu Kaishan introduced that at least the two of you have a serious pseudonym, which is much more practical than the nickname of the big black girl.

"You two should come together to dig for gold." The big black girl said in surprise.

"I have no choice. If I want to buy some family property, I have no choice but to come together."

"Where are you from?"

"Yuanbao Town."

The questions came one after another, and it was clear at a glance that this landlady was not innocent.

"Shopkeeper, please bring us some side dishes. You can't let us drink dry, right?"

Watching the big black girl checking her household registration, Zhu Kaishan had ulterior motives and fully cooperated.

Zhu Chuanwen interrupted the two people. He originally only ordered wine, but Zhu Chuanwen wanted to appear poorer.

The big black girl had bad intentions, so Zhu Chuanwen had no choice but to order the dishes so that the big black girl could make more money and ask less questions.

"Old Guozi, give these two guests two plates of side dishes."

The big black girl shouted to the guy at the counter.

Zhu Chuanwen's intention of driving people away is quite obvious.

Even though this was the case, the landlady still refused to leave. Apart from having ulterior motives, she might really have taken a liking to Zhu Kaishan.

Zhu Kaishan is indeed quite attractive to this type of middle-aged women, both in appearance and figure.

"These girls are not good people!" Zhu Chuanwen sighed secretly, and then said: "Dad, the drum has started, which is something we have never heard before."

Even for the Zhu Wei family, Zhu Chuanwen had to help keep an eye on Zhu Kaishan.

Those who live away from home cannot make any mistakes in their lifestyle.

The tavern can gather so many people, apart from eating and drinking.

Also because the tavern is the theater of Lao Jingou.

From time to time there will be some opera singers, storytellers, opera and other various artists coming to perform.

Today's person is an old artist who sings Guandong drums.

"As soon as the fishing drum rings and jingdong sounds, Shandong has produced heroes since ancient times."

The song is, everyone in Zhujia Town, Zhu Kaishan is the name of a hero..."

"Big black girl, let us listen to the first part first."

Of course, in addition to interrupting the various temptations of the big black girl, Zhu Chuanwen also really wanted to listen to the Guandong drum.

This section is about nothing else but about the Boxer Rebellion.

Among the various Boxers, Zhu Kaishan is also considered a protagonist.

Zhu Chuanwen had long heard that Zhu Kaishan's past events had been compiled into various jokes by various artists. This was the first time he heard about it.

Compared to Yuanbao Town, places like Laojingou are closer to Jianghu.

It is easier to spread some legends in the world.

It's quite amazing to listen to Zhu Kaishan's legend in front of Zhu Kaishan.

"Then listen, I have to entertain the customers in this shop too."

It was so obvious that he was chasing people away, so the big black girl could only reluctantly get up and twist her waist and go back to the counter.

Zhu Chuanwen really didn't expect that Zhu Kaishan would make mistakes at this age.

"Dad, why did they even break into Shandong with Zhu Kaishan?"

After the big black girl left, Zhu Chuanwen blinked and asked Zhu Kaishan in a low voice.

Although some of these folklore are exaggerated, some are fictional, and in some places the Spring and Autumn style of writing was used to avoid taboos from the court.

But in the general context of things, it's quite accurate.

Last year, the old Zhu family was not sure that Zhu Kaishan broke into Guandong.

But when these folk artists were creating, Zhu Kaishan, who was very determined, ran to Guandong.

"These people naturally have their own ways, otherwise how would they survive in the world."

It can be calculated that Zhu Kaishan does not understand these ways of running around in the world, so Zhu Chuanwen has some preliminary ideas to whitewash his own methods.

In the past four years, Zhu Kaishan has been living in the world. The rest of the time, Zhu Kaishan is just a capable farmer.

"Are everything sung in the play true?"
