Water Margin: You dog official, you still say you don’t know martial arts?

Chapter 228 Song Jiang: Roll You to Death! [2 more]

My husband is a very capable person!

Although it was the first time that Song Jiang met Liu Gao, he had already made a judgment, because Liu Gao did not take credit for others' work!

Liu Gao openly announced in public that the bandit leaders Zhu Hu and Wang Daoren were killed by Zhu Tong and Lei Heng!

It was also announced publicly that Zhu Tong and Lei Heng would be rewarded according to their merits!

Although the magistrate was not as eloquent as the emperor, he could not go back on his words once spoken in public.

Therefore, it is a foregone conclusion that Zhu Tong and Lei Heng will be rewarded according to their merits.

This shows that Liu Gao is a capable person!
Only those who have been in the government know how difficult it is to meet a boss who does not take credit for the work of his subordinates.

At that time, Song Jiang decided to perform well and try to leave a deep first impression on Liu Gao.

Now is definitely not a good time to meet.

There are so many people around Liu Gao, how can anyone remember who he is?
So Song Jiang could only look for another opportunity and think about it as he walked.

Suddenly Song Jiang heard someone calling him:

"Please stay, sir!"

Song Jiang looked back and found that it was Wang Po.

This Wang Po is not that Wang Po.

There are a total of three Wang Pos in "Water Margin".

One is Wang Po who lives next door to Wu Dalang's house, one is Wang Po who lives next door to Yan Poxi's house, and one is Wang Po who lives next door to Lin Chong's house.

Although they are not the same Wang Po, they are actually in the same industry.

Wang Po pulled a middle-aged woman and said to her with a smile:

"You are destined to be together. Here comes the bailiff who does good things!"

Song Jiang turned around and asked Wang Po, "What do you want to say?"

Wang Po pointed at the middle-aged woman and said:
"The bailiff didn't know that this family came from Tokyo, not from here.

"I have three legitimate children. My husband is Lord Yan, and I have a daughter, Poxi.

"His Lord Yan has always been a man who loves to sing. He taught his daughter Poxi to sing various kinds of opera songs since she was young.

"She is only eighteen years old and quite pretty.

"The three of us came to Shandong to seek refuge with an official but failed, so we ended up in Yuncheng County.

“I didn’t expect that the people here don’t like pleasure and entertainment, so I can’t make a living here. I have to temporarily live in a secluded alley at the back of the county.

"Mr. Yan was seriously ill and had no money for treatment, so Mrs. Yan asked me to be a matchmaker.

"I thought that at this time of year, there would be no place like this, and there was no place to borrow money.

"I was walking here at a dead end when I saw the bailiff coming here.

"I have come here with this old woman, hoping that the bailiff will have mercy on her..."

"So that's how it is, you two..."

When Song Jiang said this, he suddenly thought of Liu Gao:
If Yan Poxi is really as good as Wang Po said...

Why don’t you introduce yourself to the magistrate?
Today, Song Jiang also met Liu Gao's two women. They were beautiful, but at first glance, they looked like women from the underworld.

Not like Yan Poxi!

Although I have never met her, I know she is a romantic woman just from what Wang Po said!
Everyone in Yuncheng County knows that "Wang Po's mouth is full of lies."

But Song Jiang thought he could meet him first.

It is indeed as romantic as Wang Po said. Yan Po is short of money and her husband is lustful. What's wrong with me acting as a matchmaker?
Judging by Song Jiang's three views, he has done a great good deed that achieves the best of both worlds!

"You two, please stop being busy!"

Song Jiang couldn't suppress this thought:
Two good friends Zhu Tong and Lei Heng were promoted right before their eyes!

As the saying goes, "We agreed to grow old together, but you secretly got a hair treatment."

It would be fine if Zhu Tong and Lei Heng continued to be like before, not striving for progress and just waiting to die.

Yet they rolled up!
Zhu Tong and Lei Heng actually walked ahead of him and established a close relationship with the new county magistrate!

Anyone who is not a fool can see that the new magistrate is more important than Zhu Tong and Lei Heng.

As a result, Song Jiang couldn't help but roll up as well.

A new emperor has new ministers, and it is normal for the old to be replaced by the new.

The magistrate will definitely replace his trusted confidants.

Zhu Tong and Lei Heng had already rolled up their sleeves. Song Jiang dreamed of becoming an official, so how could he not follow suit?
Roll you to death!

Song Jiang decisively grabbed Wang Po and said, "Take me to see her first, and then I will make plans!"

That's it!

When Wang Po heard this, she was delighted.

She had seen how beautiful Yan Poxi was.

It would be fine if Song Jiang didn't go, but if he goes, the matter will be settled!
Not to mention that Song Jiang followed Wang Po to see Yan Poxi, Lin Chong had already led the team to Shijie Village.

But see this Shijie Village:

The lush green mountains are covered with verdant green, and the green mulberry trees are piled up in the clouds.

Running water surrounds the isolated village on all sides, and there are several sparse bamboos along the paths.

Thatched eaves are next to the stream, and ancient trees form a forest.

Outside the fence hang a bottle of wine, and a fishing boat hangs in the willow shade.

This was Lin Chong's first time here and he didn't know the way, so he asked people along the way where the three Ruan brothers' homes were.

The three Ruan brothers had not been hanging around in Shijie Village for nothing. When Lin Chong asked around, he found that everyone knew the three Ruan brothers.

"I saw my second brother at noon!"

One fisherman was quite alert and asked in return:

"Who are you and what do you want to see the Ruan brothers for?"

Lin Chong said vaguely: "I am their good friend.

“We were originally heading back together, but we split into two groups midway.

"They probably came back in the past two days, and brought dozens of the Huo family with them, doing big business outside!"

After hearing what Lin Chong said, the fisherman relaxed his guard:

“I also heard they made a lot of money!

“Many young and strong people in the village want to go out and do business with them!
"They have taken in hundreds of Huo families!"

Lin Chong was very curious: "Why don't you go?"

The fisherman blushed:
"I have elderly and young children at home, how can I leave with my family..."

Lin Chong nodded: "That's right."

The fisherman obviously didn't want to talk about this topic, so he avoided the topic:
“Where did all the ships go today?
"Shijie Lake hasn't been this quiet for a long time!"

Huh?
Lin Chong looked around and found it was really deserted!

If Lin Chong would not have thought too much before, now he would ask after observing:

"Why are there no young men?"

Am I not young and strong?

The fisherman was very unhappy. He curled his lips and didn't want to pay any attention to Lin Chong. He raised his pole and left in his boat.

Lin Chong seemed to have grasped something, and stood by the lake, frowning and lost in thought...

Because Yang Zhi had a golden seal on his forehead, he could not follow Liu Gao, so he followed Lin Chong.

Seeing Lin Chong standing by the lake in a daze, Yang Zhi couldn't help but poke him:
"Brother, what's wrong?"

"oops!"

Lin Chong suddenly woke up: "Not good!"

Yang Zhi looked confused: "What's wrong?"

"Brother Ruan must have gathered people to deal with Liangshanpo!"

Lin Chong was so anxious that he slapped his thigh:

"They are the navy. Since they came to Qingfeng Village with me, they have no chance to make merit even if they wanted to!

"They had told me they were busy, but I didn't expect them to be so impatient!
"The Liangshanpo is no longer the place it was when I was here. I'm afraid they'll suffer a great loss if they go there!"

Yang Zhi also became anxious when he heard this:

"Brother, let's go save them!"

Some of their men went to Yuncheng County with Liu Gao, and some went with Cao Zheng to guard the birthday gift.

Mu Hong takes care of Mu Chun and is also with Cao Zheng.

So now there are only two heroes like them, with a few minions.

But Yang Zhi did not hesitate, he also wanted to stand out!
