Lin Gao Qiming

Chapter 2210 Brotherhood
"It's okay, I'll talk to Master Bi about this matter. Master Bi is also happy to think about it."

Zhan Zhekun also said a lot of compliments, praising Bi Xuansheng as a "young talent" who will have "a lot to do" in the future, and "assisting Feng in making the general manager into a prime minister", not only coaxing Feng Haijiao to be full of ambition, thinking that he has recruited What a capable person, even Bi Xuansheng believed it.

Now that he has become an officer and soldier, he must be appointed as an official to make a wish. Feng Haijiao named more than a dozen of his subordinates as "Team Officers" and "Sentry Officers", and gathered a group of bandits to eat and drink.It's just that the people of Qinglianyu have suffered a lot, and there are a lot of "offerings" for no reason.

Zhan Zhekun and Bi Xuansheng poured a lot of rice soup at the banquet, coaxing Feng Haijiao to the point where he didn't know the heights of heaven and earth, and repeatedly uttered wild words at the banquet, saying that they would take down Yangshan County and show Xiong Du a look.

As soon as Feng Haijiao became the "General Manager", he set up a banner at Qinglianwei, "recruited troops and bought horses", and sent people to the surrounding villages and towns to ask them to "help money and food". To report, Sun Dabiao, shopkeeper Sun of Dalangxu, sent someone, "Please invite Uncle Feng to discuss matters."

In the past, as soon as Sun Dabiao said "please", he would leave immediately--Sun Dabiao is the richest of the three brothers, Feng Haijiao sometimes "doesn't work well", and his brothers' money and food turnover is difficult, so he has to ask this A "big brother" spoke.All kinds of large stolen goods are entrusted to this "big brother" to sell them on weekdays.

But now he is a little swollen - he is an "official", only a "citizen" like Sun Dabiao comes to see him, how can he go to see Sun Dabiao.Thinking about how Sun Dabiao didn't congratulate him when he took office as general manager, he really didn't know how to flatter him.I was a little angry in my heart, but I didn't see the messenger, and said: "Go and tell the messenger, I am busy with work now, if he has anything, just come and say it."

Wei Wei, his subordinate, was about to retreat, but Bi Xuansheng said: "Slow down!" He stopped his subordinates, turned around and said to Feng Haijiao: "Master, I heard that this grandson is your old sworn brother?"

Before he came here, he had already learned a lot about the local situation from Xie Wendong, especially the details of this Feng Haijiao.He naturally knows the origin of a character like Sun Dabiao.

"Yeah, he's older, I'll call him big brother."

"In that case, such a reply seems inappropriate..."

"X your old mother, what's wrong?!" Feng Haijiao's impression of Bi Xuansheng was that he was a sour guy who could speak well and "talented", so he made him a "teacher" on a whim, and now this sentence "no "Sure" made him feel ashamed, and looked at Bi Xuansheng with wide-eyed eyes, quite like "I will cut you off today if you can't say a word".

Bi Xuansheng was really scared, but he was well-informed and knew that he must not be soft at this time, otherwise he would be underestimated by this green forest hero, and it would be even more difficult to speak in the future. He coughed immediately and pretended to be calm: " Master, now that you have an official status, your status is unusual. However, since you and Uncle Sun are married to Jinlan, you are brothers who live and die together—the word "loyalty" must be mentioned. This matter must be passed on. Get out. If you know, it’s the difference between officials and people. If you don’t know, you’ll say you’re not loyal..."

"Me? No sense of loyalty?" Feng Haijiao is a green forest hero after all, and he would be criticized as "no sense of loyalty" when he said it. Although he was still blowing his beard and staring, his heart softened a little. Bi Xuansheng knew that these words were useful, Then he hit the iron while it was hot: "Since the master is an official of the imperial court, he is about to do something right now. The so-called fighting a tiger requires a brother. This uncle Sun is the elder brother of the master. If he can be kind, it will be a great help to Dong Weng. I hope Dong Weng will think twice."

Feng Haijiao thought about it, and felt that what Bi Xuansheng said was reasonable. Although this sworn elder brother was messed up by the Yao people this time and suffered heavy losses, he was still a centipede, and he had a lot of money and food in his hands.Offending him is no good, but it will help if you win him over.Turning anger into joy, he patted Bi Xuansheng's shoulder heavily, and said with a smile: "No wonder people say that scholars have a lot of tricks, and they really have insight!"

Bi Xuansheng's shoulders hurt from being slapped by him, and he secretly cursed "Kill", but with a calm expression on his face, he said: "Where, the master is farsighted and wise, and he is as good as others."

"In that case, I'll condescend... let's go for a while," Feng Haijiao got up and walked a few steps, and said to his followers, "Go and tell the messenger that I'll come tomorrow—let him prepare the wine and meat."

From Qinglianxu to Dalangxu, the land journey only took half a day. In the past, they often walked among each other without much ostentation—just to prevent the enemy from robbing the road or the Yao people from looting, they had to bring some entourages to escort them.Often on foot, sometimes on a pole carried by two people.

This trip, Feng Haijiao had to put on airs - after all, it was the first time to go out after becoming an official, the guard of honor was indispensable, and the sliding pole was naturally unusable, it was too simple.However, sedan chairs are a rare thing in Yangshan: decent sedan chairs are all found in the county town or in the homes of local gentry, and there is no such thing as a "bandit nest" like Qinglianyu.

Feng Haijiao looked at the broken sedan chair that his subordinates collected with great difficulty, his face was full of displeasure, but Bi Xuansheng was clever, and said: "Master is now a military officer of the court, and according to the rules, he rides a horse, so it doesn't matter if you don't sit on this sedan chair."

They had a few horses in their hands, and they chose the most "spiritual horse" at the moment. Feng Haijiao finally had a mount. Behind the horse was a red canopy and a surname flag, surrounded by dozens of minions. Then, there is a top horse in front, imitating the style of the county magistrate when he goes on a tour, he finds a gong, beats the gong of "soldiers and civilians, wait and get out of the way", and sets off in a mighty way.

As soon as this man and horse came out, they were very majestic. Originally, after Yangshan County passed through the Yao Rebellion, there were few pedestrians on the road. Now that Feng Haijiao was dispatched again, there was no pedestrian on the road.

This Feng Haijiao walked all the way, posting his "notices" all the way.This was Bi Xuansheng's idea, saying that in this way, the common people would know that Feng Haijiao was now an official of the imperial court, so that it would be easier to collect money and food.

"...If you don't follow the notice, you might as well slaughter a few to make an example!" Bi Xuansheng said.

"Unexpectedly, although your brother is young, he is quite ruthless." Feng Haijiao appreciated it very much.

"Everywhere, it's all master Huwei." Bi Xuansheng replied with his head down, but he was secretly laughing in his heart: This is putting him on the fire to roast him, so that the thief's attention will be attracted by this young bird, Master Yang can breathe again and wait for a change.

When encountering villages and towns, people are asked to "help food, grass, and military pay". If there are fortresses in large villages and towns, those who close their doors will not accept them, and the small ones will be unlucky. They will be extorted by him every time. chickens and ducks.

This way of walking, the itinerary will naturally not be fast, and the distance that could have been reached that night, just went to noon the next day.It made Sun Dabiao and Zhang Tianbo think that something happened on the road, and sent some people out to inquire.

After inquiring, I found out that this brother "became an official".Sun Dabiao immediately called the subordinate sent to deliver the letter to scold him severely, and asked him why he didn't tell when he came back, and whether he was deceiving on purpose. The subordinate quickly distinguished that he hadn't even seen the face of "Second Master Feng" and was listening to others. It's just a message.As for the fact that "Second Master Feng" became an official, no one told him-there was nothing unusual in Qinglianxu.

"No abnormality, your eyes are blind!" Sun Dabiao was furious, and threw the notice that his subordinates had uncovered on the face of Xiao Luo, "He has issued notices everywhere, and you still say that everything is as usual! As usual! As usual! Give me Pull it down, hit forty sticks!"

Minions kept crying out for injustice, but they were still dragged down and beaten severely.Not long after, wailing and begging for mercy sounded in the courtyard, and Sun Dabiao stood up on the steps and shouted, "Beat me hard! Tell him not to have eyes! No ears!" Go back to the hall.

Zhang Tianbo understood this brother's state of mind very well: He was originally going to drag Feng Haibiao to recruit him, but now he was recruited by the court first!Although they didn't care too much about who was recruited, this Feng Haijiao was too disrespectful, and even got himself the title of "General Manager" without saying a word!As a result, Sun Dabiao, who was about to bargain with the Australians, lost a lot of bargaining chips.

Zhang Tianbo was also quite annoyed with this "Second Brother" in his heart, but the matter has come to this point, it is useless to be annoyed, so he persuaded: "Brother! Now that Second Brother has been recruited by the imperial court, it will be useless for us to be annoyed." , it’s better to think of a countermeasure first, he’s here, how should we talk and where should we stand?”

"Where are we standing? Could it be that I have to open the middle door wide to welcome him, and kneel down and call him a grassroots?" Sun Dabiao scolded, "XTLM, this Feng Haijiao is really not a thing, but fortunately I have married Jinlan with him! Come on, what are the Australians talking about recruiting? Even if they really have to recruit, if the Australians want me to suppress him, should I suppress him or not?! How could this Feng Haijiao be so reckless!"

Zhang Tianbo persuaded: "Brother, don't get angry! Second brother Feng can come this time, brother loyalty is still good, let's not worry too much for the time being, and listen to what he has to say."

"That's the only way to go." Sun Dabiao was very frustrated, and he was still a little bit resentful: Daming was generous to his brother-in-law, and he would give the boss as soon as he gave it; What a difference between cloud and mud!For a moment, my heart was tumbling, with envy, jealousy, and resentment towards Feng Haijiao and the Australians.

Zhang Tianbo didn't think as much as he did, he realized that the situation of their brothers was quite delicate.Feng Haijiao was recruited by the Ming Kingdom, not to mention, but he still made a big show of it, no matter whether it was his original intention or not, he had already made it clear that he was going to confront the Kun thief, and the possibility of recruiting Feng Haijiao was already very small.

Sun Dabiao's strength has been greatly weakened now, without Feng Haijiao's bonus, it will be very difficult to get more benefits from the Australians.
