The best little eunuch

Chapter 23 Musket
Quickly waved her hand, the queen mother said: "No, no, I'll just take a rest. It's an old problem."

"Then sister-in-law, rest, Yongning is leaving." Yongning got up and said, then looked at Lin Feng, and said: "Xiao Linzi, if you have time, you have to tell a story to this palace, or else..." When it comes to otherwise , Princess Yongning made a pinching movement, and Lin Feng hurriedly touched the tender flesh on his waist habitually, as if he felt a little bit of pain right now.

Seeing Lin Feng's reaction, Princess Yongning giggled, and then walked towards the outside of the Hall of Kindness.

Glancing at Xia He beside the Queen Mother, Lin Feng said: "You go down too, as long as Qiu Xiang and I take care of you here."

Glancing at Lin Feng and then at the Queen Mother, Xia He said, "Your servant will leave." After speaking, he bowed to the Queen Mother and left the Hall of Kindness.

Seeing that they had all gone out, Lin Feng hugged Qiuxiang and the Queen Mother, and said, "Did you miss me?"

After all, the queen mother was not like Qiuxiang. Although she was also blushing, she said, "A little bit." Qiuxiang buried her head deeply in her chest, not daring to look at Lin Feng.

Patting on Qiuxiang's hand, Lin Feng said, "Are you still embarrassed?"

"You... Ignore you." Qiuxiang said, trying to stand up, but was held by Lin Feng's side.

Seeing Qiuxiang's reaction, the queen mother said, "Qiuxiang is a bit thin-skinned. You can't bully her."It made Lin Feng and the Queen Mother laugh even more happily.

It's still early in the day, Lin Feng would like to be slept together right now, but the Queen Mother and Qiu Xiang are unwilling to say anything.After all, it's easy to say that it's hard to say that it's prostitution in the daytime.

Since he couldn't do something he loved, Lin Feng could only chat with Qiuxiang and the queen mother, and occasionally told a dirty joke, which made the queen mother and Qiuxiang very shy.The queen mother was a little bit better, after all, she was already a mother, and Qiuxiang couldn't do it anymore, she was so ashamed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in.

At this time, Lin Feng began to complain about the ancient entertainment facilities, there was nothing.Unlike modern times, watching TV and movies, playing mahjong and poker, one day passes by.But in this ancient times, it is really difficult.

Thinking of mahjong and poker, Lin Feng had a flash of inspiration and said, "I think of something fun." Then, regardless of Qiuxiang and the Queen Mother's reaction, he ran out quickly and found a pen and paper.

However, Lin Feng found tragically that it was impossible for him to rely on these things to make a deck of poker, which was too difficult.Fortunately, there is no lack of anything in the palace, and there are many skilled craftsmen.After finding the supervisor, Lin Feng described the appearance of poker carefully, and then asked, "Can you do it?"

"This... the poker that Eunuch Lin said doesn't sound very difficult. I should be able to make it after thinking about it." A craftsman said to Lin Feng.

"That's fine, you go." Then, Lin Feng started talking about mahjong again.Mahjong is really not difficult, and it is easy to make.Now there are only three people, so it is better to fight the landlord for the time being. If there are four people in the future, then they can play mahjong.Lin Feng thought in his heart.

"It seems that I still have the idea of ​​three wives and four concubines. The thinking of the ancients has indeed affected me." Lin Feng said with certainty.How could I have such a corrupt idea?However, since you have been affected, you should live according to the ideas of the ancients.Lin Feng instantly threw out the idea of ​​monogamy that he had accepted in his previous life.

Regarding the mahjong mentioned by Lin Feng, the craftsmen said that there is no difficulty at all.If it is carved with horns, it takes about half a month to make a mahjong set.

"Well, don't be in a hurry to do this mahjong, you have to hold on to the poker." Lin Feng said.In the future, no matter how you say it, I will have an entertainment activity, no.

When Lin Feng returned to the Hall of Kindness, the Queen Mother and Qiu Xiang asked him why he was in such a hurry just now.So, Lin Feng told the story of what he just ran to the general prison.

"What are poker and mahjong?" The queen mother and Qiuxiang asked like two curious babies.

"It's interesting to play." Lin Feng said, and began to explain how to play poker and mahjong.Since there was no poker and mahjong, Qiuxiang and the queen mother were confused by Lin Feng's explanations, including gestures and explanations.However, fortunately in the end, the queen mother and Qiuxiang finally understood.

After hearing this, the queen mother and Qiuxiang began to look forward to it, and asked, "What's the matter with this poker?" The queen mother suddenly couldn't remember the name of the poker, and asked.

"poker!"

"Yes, when will this poker game be ready? The Ai family who said it is now feeling itchy, this must be very interesting." The queen mother said to Lin Feng.

"I don't know about this either, the supervisor should be able to do it soon. This poker is not difficult." Lin Feng said.What Lin Feng said was not difficult, but it really made those skilled craftsmen who will be the prisons very sad.

According to Lin Feng, the paper of this poker has to be harder, otherwise how to play cards.Therefore, multiple layers must be superimposed.However, it should not be too thick, as this will have to test the craftsman's level.

In the end, a craftsman proposed to add a thin layer of cork between the two layers of paper to solve this problem.Then, quickly seize the time to make it.Lin Feng just talked about those rough things, four suits, thirteen cards of each suit, plus two kings.Lin Feng also only said that the three cards of J, Q, and K were paintings, but did not say what to paint. In the end, these craftsmen simply summed up and directly painted the generals.But also lifelike.

When it was getting dark, the general supervisor sent someone to deliver the just-made playing cards. Although it was very different from the playing cards of later generations, it was undeniable that they were quite perfect.It's just that the traditional one, two, three, four... looks really awkward.But it doesn't affect the cards.The most interesting ones are the big and small ones. One draws a big bastard and the other a little bastard.Also, in this era, which prince is appropriate to draw?Simply a few craftsmen combined and drew a bastard, which can be regarded as representing the king.

After seeing the poker cards being brought, the Queen Mother and Qiu Xiang were eager to play. Lin Feng hadn't played cards for a long time, so the three of them picked up the poker cards and started playing.

At the beginning, Lin Feng kept winning, but gradually, Qiuxiang and the queen mother also mastered the skills of playing cards, and their skills improved rapidly. At the beginning, they slowly tasted the taste of victory, and the more they played, the more vigorous they became.Lin Feng hinted many times that it was getting dark, let's go to sleep, but the two of them didn't seem to hear half of it, and just like that, the three of them played all night. In the morning, Lin Feng walked out of the Hall of Kindness with dark circles under his eyes, while the Queen Mother and Qiu Xiang She fell asleep beautifully.It made Lin Feng's teeth itch with anger.

"I'm just making fun of myself!" Lin Feng said as he walked out of the Hall of Kindness.If he hadn't guessed that Qi Heihu would come to him today, Lin Feng wouldn't be in a hurry to go back.But even if he is not in a hurry to go back and sleep in the Hall of Kindness, Lin Feng can't do much. At this moment, he is so sleepy, how can he be so leisurely!But after waking up, I don't know what will happen.

When Lin Feng returned to his mansion, he saw Lu Shuai hovering at the door.Seeing Lin Feng, Lu Shuai quickly took a step forward, and said to Lin Feng: "My lord, that Qiheihu is here."

Lin Feng smiled, and it was exactly as he expected.As long as Qi Heihu is not a stupid person, he will definitely send someone to investigate the factory and himself. As long as he knows his details, can he not come to see him in person?This is what Lin Feng wanted. "Where is Qi Heihu now?" Lin Feng asked Lu Shuai.

"I don't think the adults are here, so let him wait in the living room first." Lu Shuai quickly replied.Because he didn't know what Lin Feng was planning, Lu Shuai didn't dare to treat Qi Heihu slowly, so even though Lin Feng was not there, Lu Shuai let him in and asked someone to serve him tea.

"Follow me to the living room." Lin Feng said, walking towards the living room first.

"Brother Qi, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, there are a lot of things going on in the palace, I really shouldn't have kept Brother Qi waiting for so long." Before Lin Feng entered the living room, he cupped his fists and said to Qi Heihu.

Standing up quickly, Qi Heihu said: "What is your lord talking about? Your lord is busy with official duties, so you should wait a bit later. How dare you blame your lord?"After he sent someone to check Lin Feng's information yesterday, he was really taken aback.His big backer, Eunuch Wu, fell in his hands. Thinking about it this way, Lin Feng must have more power than Eunuch Wu.As for Eunuch Wu's power, he has seen it before, no matter which province's governor, he will more or less sell Eunuch Wu's face.

"Brother Qi, please take a seat. Come and serve tea to Brother Qi." Lin Feng sat on the main seat and said to Qi Heihu.Then he ordered his servants to serve tea.

Looking at Qi Heihu, Lin Feng asked, "I don't know why Big Brother Qi came to my place today?"

Quickly stood up again, Qi Heihu said to Lin Feng: "My lord, my subordinates offended my subordinates, and I really deserve death. I have already sent someone to arrest him and leave him to be dealt with by my lord. This is a trivial matter." , Sir, please accept it with a smile." Qi Heihu quickly took out a stack of bank notes from his pocket, and handed them to Lin Feng respectfully.

Lin Feng took the bank note, put it on the table without looking at it, and said, "It's just a trivial matter, why should Brother Qi do this? I heard that Brother Qi's Black Tiger Gang has branches in many provinces Tang, I don’t know if it’s true or not?”

"It's just a small fight, it makes adults laugh." Qi Heihu said while thinking about the meaning of Lin Feng's words.It stands to reason that Lin Feng has already collected the money, so he should not cause trouble for himself.But what did he mean by this sentence?Don't you think you don't give enough?

After glancing at Qi Heihu, Lin Feng asked, "Then I don't know if big brother Qi wants to make the Black Tiger Gang bigger? What's the point of making small troubles?"

"I don't know what your lord's words mean?" Qi Heihu began to ponder, what did Lin Feng mean by that?Is it to join in?This is a good thing, but I don't know how much dividends should be shared with Lin Feng. If it is less, it will definitely not work, and if it is too much, it will hurt me.

"Except for the hall of the capital, the other halls of the Black Tiger Gang have basically just been established, right? Some places haven't even got their feet on the ground?" Lin Feng asked.After all, Qi Heihu's power is in the capital, so other places will naturally be relatively weaker.Isn't there an old saying in China: A strong dragon does not overwhelm a snake.It is naturally more difficult to develop in someone else's territory.

"Your Excellency is laughing. Now the halls in various provinces are basically decorations. After all, those places have their own gangs. Especially the Cao Gang, they have a large number of people, and there are many gangs in various places. Our nature and The Cao Gang is similar, and often conflicts with the people of the Cao Gang. If the situation continues to fail in various places, I have no choice but to withdraw the people." Qi Heihu has no choice.With Eunuch Wu's handwritten letter, the local government gave some face, but that is to give some face, turn a blind eye, as long as you don't do something too out of line, they don't care about you.However, the local government can only do this, don't think about anything else.Therefore, Qi Heihu's life is not easy.

Especially recently, Eunuch Wu has lost his power, and those officials who were easy to talk to start looking for excuses to ask for money. Qi Heihu is also very headache. Everyone withdrew.

"It's just that I don't know what kind of business Brother Qi's Black Tiger Gang is doing?" Lin Feng asked.The Qiheihu gang is not a gangster yet, and they also do some business, which is somewhat similar to the group of later generations.It's just that it's all hard work.

"The main force here is to work as coolies at various docks along the Grand Canal in the south of the Yangtze River, to help unload goods, and to transport goods themselves. It is similar to the Cao Gang, so the Cao Gang often finds us to be unlucky when there is nothing to do. Moreover, the Cao Gang family has a great cause. He is big and has the support of officials from the central court, so I have a difficult life." Qi Heihu couldn't stop after speaking.I'm afraid only he knows how hard it was during this period of time.Eunuch Wu, who had finally found someone to connect with him, lost his momentum again.It made Qi Heihu even worse.

Thinking over Qi Heihu's words carefully, Lin Feng asked again: "How many members does your Black Tiger Gang have now?" Heihu just met this condition, so Lin Feng had the idea of ​​subduing him. However, what Lin Feng wanted to know now was how many people Qi Heihu had, so that he could calculate how much he needed to invest.The queen mother only gave 10 taels. If he needed more money, he would have to pay for it himself.
