Ping An Biography

Hearing Lao Xu talk about his net worth, Zhang Ning understood that he had been wooed, and he had to wait and see if he was good enough or not.He quickly turned his face faster than turning the pages of a book, changed his politeness, and said sternly: "It doesn't matter if you were an official or something before, you are nothing now, and it is useless to mention the courage of the past."

Old Xu froze for a moment, and listened quietly to what he was going to say.

"Now I have an errand here, and it's up to you whether you like it or not. There are two people, with a total annual salary of 50 taels, and I will be reimbursed for board, lodging and work expenses as the host; in addition, Lao Xu receives one tael of silver or one guan of copper per month..." Zhang Ning glanced at the Wenjun girl from the corner of his eye, and suddenly remembered that his sister had to save some money from her own house to buy personal items. It is not easy for her to tell her elders about the expenses, so she paused and said, "Wenjun also receives a regular fee." , Each receives his own monthly salary, and the annual salary is also paid to Lao Xu. If he is not satisfied, he will not force him to stay; if he wants, I will decide the rules between us, and there will be no bargaining."

Old Xu said: "Master Zhang is talking about remuneration, what are our duties?"

Zhang Ning said calmly: "The internal affairs are what I explain... Listen to me first, and make it clear that the rules are set by the boss. Ordinary things, which are obviously easy to do, you can't refuse. If there are strong people making things difficult If you suspect it, you can refuse; but if you go and do it well, there will be a reward."

He pondered for a moment and then said: "There is one more thing. After I return to Beijing, I will find acquaintances to confirm your identities. If it is true, I promise to register your citizenship. Paying food is disgraceful, so I don’t force it. When you settle down in the Zhang family, I will take care of Lao Xu’s affairs. Wenjun will marry in the future, and I will give you a dowry; Come back to live with my mother's family."

After talking, the two were silent for a while, and Old Xu asked in a deep voice: "These rules set by Mr. Zhang, are they true to their word?"

"The ugly thing is to say that the rules in the yard are the same as the laws of the old Xu Xingwuli. How can you obey people? But the laws are not static, and so are the rules. It is up to me to change the rules; If the change is unacceptable, you can choose again." Zhang Ning said, "Have you considered it?"

Old Xu bowed resolutely: "There is no rule without rules. If the boss can do what he says, his subordinates will naturally be convinced."

Hearing his address, Zhang Ning smiled immediately, nodded and took out the banknotes he had prepared and put them on the table: "All future annual salaries will be paid in advance, and the employer will not be suspicious, and the suspect will not use it."

Whether it is really possible to employ people without doubt, that is not necessarily the case, but in the current situation, the pros and cons are all in the mind.

……

The game has already started, and the most interesting thing is that the rules of the game are determined by oneself. There is no other reason, just because it is the initiative to take the initiative.Even if it fails at that time, it can be called "defeat", rather than fate controlled by others and waiting to be judged.

"Zhao Erniang, a native of Changde, Huguang. In the 17th year of Yongle, she married the Wei family in the city of her own prefecture. She did not abide by women's morals and reconciled with her neighbors. She was arrested in the county government and had ninety sticks. Returning to (her natal family), my father is ashamed and refuses to enter..." Zhang Ning took the list file and read it calmly in front of Xie Jun Zhan Zhuli.

Taking a break to drink tea, Xie Juan said: "At that time, Erniang Zhao had nowhere to go, so she had to leave the mansion incognito and enter a kiln. Because she was young and beautiful, she accepted 20 customers every day, even a prostitute couldn't stand it. Later, she was photographed by her subordinates and made her a good living, and she is still doing it happily. By the way, since last year, she has been the daughter-in-law of an old rich man in Dashu'ao Village, Yizhen County. Hooked up with a leader of the Yangzhou Gang (Business Gang), and had the opportunity to have a good relationship with that leader, whether it was Mutianxidiye|hege, or simply letting the old rich man be a turtle at home, so that we knew the movements of the Yangzhou Gang like the back of our hands , is a very effective and meticulous work.”

"The Yangzhou gang is also rich in financial resources in Jiangsu and Zhejiang." Zhang Ning said indifferently, "The rich will take the risk to spoil a married village woman. Zhao Erniang should have good looks and means?"

Seeing Zhang Ning's calm expression and good spirits, Xie Juan couldn't help but whispered: "I don't know what to say, why don't you try it yourself, sir, it doesn't matter."

Zhang Ning glanced at him angrily, and said earnestly: "Snakes have ways of snakes, and people have ways of being human. Since we pay her to do our work, how can we let her accompany you for no reason? How about thanking the boss for accepting her?" Go home and raise her, let her accompany you every day, don't let her go out to make a living?"

"I can't bear it, I can't bear it." Xie Juan waved his hands hurriedly.

Only then did Zhang Ning say: "Secretly recruit her back, the Yangzhou Gang don't care about it, now our focus is on Peach Blossom Villa."

"The humble job will be done immediately!" Xie Jun responded positively.He understands the seriousness of Peach Blossom Villa, and Zhang Ning's so-called new arrangement has been brewing for so long, and now he doesn't care about his business, what does the court use him for?

There are many lists on the dossier, but Zhang Ning chose Zhao Erniang because the "eye" of the whole plan is se.There is no way, if you use the conventional method to get in, you can only fall into the situation described by Xie Jun. It will be a long and protracted battle to gain the basic trust of the rebels first, and Zhang Ning can't afford that time.Taking advantage of women, although Zhao Erniang is in this business herself, is still not very honorable in Zhang Ning's heart, but if she were Hu Ying, she would definitely have no pressure, and Zhang Ning didn't want to get entangled.

When I was in the capital before, I heard some information about Peng Tianheng, the most important detail: Peng Tianheng taught|instigating the "Lady Zhou" to do the poisoning of the imperial meal. Returning back, just like Jing Ke's entry into Qin and assassinating the King of Qin, it is impossible to come back alive. What a courageous and determined event!Peng Tianheng is a good guy, let's go to sleep first, so as not to waste...

To what extent do you have to be shameless? To what extent can you do it?Such a person's weakness is very obvious, where can we not attack his weakness?

After Zhao Erniang secretly returned to Yangzhou and entered Biyuan through the back door, Zhang Ning, Xie Jun and others met her together and gave her instructions on what to do, explaining in great detail.After making it clear, he couldn't help but add a sentence temporarily: "This matter is more dangerous. Peng Tianheng is a desperado with weapons. If the incident fails, your situation will be worrying. Although you are working under us, this time I will not force you. If you don’t want to go, just say it.”

"What kind of weapon did you bring, a gun?" Zhao Erniang had a wave|wave expression on her face, this girl really looked very sensual, reminiscent of the image of rippling water.Seeing Zhang Ning standing there in a daze, she couldn't help laughing again, "When will it not be dangerous for us to do this business? Why do adults bring this up now?"

Zhang Ning said casually: "You are a woman after all, women and children should be treated differently at any time."

"That's right. Back then, Jian|husband's stick was eighty, but I was ninety, giggling..." Zhao Erniang smiled profusely, leaning forward and backward. Hearing Zhang Ning's words seemed to be the best she had ever heard in her life. She laughed like a joke, she laughed enough before asking, "How much is the reward?"

Zhang Ning looked at Xie Juan and said, "It's about the Qin case, if you make meritorious service, you will be rewarded for your first merit."

"Master Zhang, you have the final say." Xie Juan said hastily.

Zhang Ning nodded, lowered his head and stilled to clear things up in his mind, raised his head and said solemnly: "According to reports, people suspected of the Salt Gang are scattered into Yizhen County one after another during this period of time, purchasing a large number of various farm tools and kitchen utensils, I think they collect iron to make weapons and arrows, and it is estimated that it is time to deliver the goods. The opportunity is fleeting, so it is not too late to set off tomorrow morning!"

... The next day, the troops were dispatched, and the arrangements were first made in Yizhen County. Zhang Ning and two of his direct subordinates came to the inn on Xianqian Street.Zhang Ning stretched out his fingers and gently pushed aside a corner of the straw curtain, and had a panoramic view of the whole street, then turned to Xie Juan and said, "Your people are very reliable in their work."

Xie Juan said: "He's also an adult."

Zhang Ning then turned around and sat down at the table, and one of his young men made tea. He tasted it and said with a smile, "It's just an inn in the county town, and it's a little different from the tea in Boss Xie's garden."

Xie Juan didn't reply, but said in a deep voice: "Zhao Erniang has gone."

Zhang Ning said calmly: "If something unexpected happens, it's never too late to get nervous."

Xie Jun concentrated on staring outside behind the straw curtain.I saw that Zhao Erniang was wearing a floral beige, with a plain sarong underneath, and her head-dress was no different from that of a pretty daughter-in-law from a wealthy family.She took small steps and walked to the gate of the county yamen with her head down. Her actions and identities matched her identity. She was timid as if she had never seen anything in the world. She was really better at pretending than an actor.

Zhao Erniang walked to the ground, knelt down at the door without saying a word, put a large piece of paper with writing on it with a stone in front of her, still bowed her head.The wall outside the gate of the county government office often had the magistrate’s government orders posted. Every day, students or literate people who cared about the policy came to see them. After a while, some of these people gathered, most of whom wore long clothes.Xianqian Street is the main road of the city, and the flow of people itself is relatively large, and curious people also stopped there to watch.

Not long after, the later ones couldn't squeeze in anymore, and didn't even know that there was a magical horse inside, but the more curious they were, they wandered around outside.At this time, a person serving the public began to read the words on the paper eccentrically: "Mr. Hu, a woman from Dashu'ao Village, Yizhen County... also. Appeal to Song Dynasty, the history of Yizhen County...? Three years this year In the first month, Song Dianshi crossed the village road, and the women were washing clothes in the stream. When he saw the women, he became malicious and taught others to threaten the women in order to bully them. At the beginning of April, he sent someone back, and if he didn't do what he said, he would set the blame Yu Husband. The woman was angry and afraid, unwilling to do something that would shame her husband’s family, and asked someone to write a pleading paper to the government, but was detained. In desperation, she had to go to the city to ask the magistrate to enforce the law impartially and make decisions for the people... ..."

Zhang Tranquility upstairs in the inn sat for a while and said: "Notify the people below, and prepare to act according to the situation."
