Chapter 418 Ximen Qing Is Ill

Five days passed in the blink of an eye, and Wang Yan also visited Yanggu County and learned about some situations in the surrounding areas, and of course, information about Liangshan.

The one on the top of the mountain now is Wang Lun, the scholar in white who was killed by Lin Chong. A player who studies very hard and is not even a serious scholar. Chao Gai was still sitting in Qingxi Village keeping his integrity. Like Wang Yan, he was the village chief and a wealthy householder in the village. He has a good reputation as a gangster among local gangsters. Of course, Song Jiang was no exception. He was his Hu Baoyi in Yuncheng and it was timely. Both black and white take it all, the people are very broad, and Yuncheng dominates. There are also some other relatively famous figures, such as Lin Chong and Chai Jin, who have not made any move yet.

Of course, there is a circle for this thing. Ordinary people still don't know much about local gangsters. As long as they are not bullied, they don't care. Life is not easy. How can I find the time to understand the big brother in society? What's more, in today's era, information transmission is not fast, and many people have never even left a county. No matter how majestic or famous this or that person is, it doesn't matter.

Therefore, Wang Yan learned about the local gangsters from his nursing home. The martial arts skills of the sixteen guardians were acceptable. Wang Yan had fought with them in single combat, and he could basically defeat them in three moves with bare hands. Picking up weapons, simply forming an array, and engaging in a head-on confrontation, he couldn't defeat these sixteen people. If the space is large, it won't be a big problem to fly with the kite for a while. Of course, if he were wearing full armor and had protection, he could kill these sixteen even in head-to-head combat.

The main reason is that none of these sixteen people are mediocre. After all, not everyone is qualified to be a nurse. These people either came from the battlefield, or they have some apprenticeships. They have practiced martial arts for many years, and they are all easy to get close to, so they can be considered strong men. The one who ran was because Wang Daguan was given a lot of money, so he took refuge. So they know a lot about the big send-off. In addition, there are also good friends outside, so when it comes to hot events in the world, they are basically the players who are on the front line.

Wu Song, whom Wang Yan asked the housekeeper to inquire about, has also been found.

Another day at breakfast time, Wang Daguan was still eating breakfast alone. Wang Fusheng sat opposite and said, "Master, Wu Song has already found out."

"Talk about it."

"He does have some courage. He is said to be invincible in fighting all over Qinghe. No one dares to mess with him. He is twenty-three years old and has nothing to do all day long. He claims to be brave enough to cause trouble. He has an older brother at home. Strange to say, Wu Songsheng is eight in height. However, Wu Song was just a short boy. He had no parents since he was a child and was raised by Wu Song. Therefore, Wu Song always listened to his elder brother's words and ignored them when he was drunk. Litigation. It's really hard for his short brother. He makes a living selling cooking cakes on the street all day long, and he also has to keep his younger brother out of trouble.

When our people found Wu Song, he was drunk. He fought with others and knocked him to the ground with one punch. He was unconscious. He thought he had killed someone, so he hurriedly ran away to avoid the disaster. Our people remembered the young master's instructions, and when they saw that the man was not dead, they used money to make amends and settled the matter. This time he got into trouble, and it was not easy to hang out in Qinghe County. It happened that the young master wanted to invite him, so the people in the past made the decision and brought his brother to join him. In three days, it's almost time to arrive. "

Wu Song is now an incompetent street kid. He has no serious work to do and runs away when trouble comes. He doesn't care about his brother. Few men take that responsibility. It was after meeting Song Jiang that fate made him mature. Killing a tiger to become the capital's head, killing Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian to pay homage to their dead brothers, drunkenly beating Jiang Menshen, blood splattering on the Yuanyang Tower, etc., these are all happening one after another, and among them there is a sinister heart, and if you don't grow, you won't live long.

Of course, it doesn't matter what Wu Song is like, it's important now that the time has come to figure it out. There is still more than a year before Chao Gai and others rob the birthday card. Although he had no intention of getting involved with Liang Shan, it was still okay to arrange something in advance.

"How are the other matters going?"

"Master, the pig business is being done. Forty-three households will be provided for in two months. Farmers who are good at raising pigs have also heard about it. Raising piglets next year will not be a problem. Carpenters, blacksmiths and other craftsmen are also working hard. We are looking for all the craftsmen in Yanggu County, and they will arrive one after another in the near future. The wood and bricks to build the house have been ordered, and it will take some time to come over. The planning drawings drawn by the young master have been completed. We will conduct on-site testing and wait until then to start construction.”

Seeing that he was about to speak but hesitated, Wang Yan said: "Are you out of money?"

"It's enough now, but I'm afraid it won't last until the end of the year."

"Don't worry about money. Can you buy all the utensils I asked you to buy?"

The housekeeper nodded, and Wang Yan said: "Go and find some reliable people to come over and ask them to kill three pigs first. I will keep all the fat for my use, and share the remaining meat and bones with the tenants." Taste the meat.”

"Yes, Master." Wang Fusheng responded, then smiled and said: "By the way, Master, Ximen Qing's man is sick, and his four wives and children also have different symptoms. People are saying that there is a plague. , the city suddenly became deserted, and people did not dare to go out on the streets. The magistrate had people seal the house, and no one was allowed to go in. "

"Uncle Fu, be careful, don't let the news slip. When the official Ximen dies, the cook and his family..."

"Young Master, don't worry. My servant understands and will keep it clean."

"Okay, Uncle Fu has taken the trouble and paid thirty taels of silver to his account. Brother Wen is studying abroad and has a lot of expenses. Please let him not be bothered by money. If he wins the exam next year, all future expenses will be borne by my Wang family."

‘Brother Wen’ is the son of this housekeeper, his name is Wang Zhongwen. He is twenty-three years old and studying at Yingtian Academy, one of the four major academies. There is still some hope. He used to be his school boy, but later he went out to study.

Wang Fusheng's old face turned into a chrysanthemum smile, and he was very happy: "Thank you very much, young master." After that, he said goodbye and left.

After leisurely breakfast, Wang Yan rested for a while and strolled to the village below.

The old housekeeper is reliable in his work. He has already found a few men and is boiling water to kill pigs. Wang Yan was also bored, just squatting aside and watching a group of men kill pigs and divide the meat.

There is no Wang Baoqing anymore, because Wang Yan found boys of similar age from the tenant farmers' families, tested their academic performance in detail, and found that they were pretty good, so he sent them all to study directly.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't want to take the imperial examination, it won't delay his training of children. After all, do you control the grassroots level? In the future, these people will be assigned officials. No matter how big or small, as long as they get to the place, he can send people there. It is still a good deal. However, the cycle is a bit long, but it does not lose money. It is considered a casual game.

Of course, after all, not all children of the right age are suitable for learning. Some who were not serious about their enlightenment, and some who were really lacking in talent, were all sent to the nursing homes to teach them physical training and martial arts.

As for losing half of their labor force, none of the parents of these children said no. Firstly, a young man must live in poverty, and secondly, studying and practicing martial arts is not possible without money, but it is better than farming. It's a good thing that the senior officials personally support him.

After a long while, several people neatly packed up the pigs without any waste. Wang Yan led a group of people back to the mansion on the hillside. He cooked the pot and oil in a room in the front yard, and at the same time directed several people to start preparing. Caustic soda...

He has to go back to his old business, making soap, soap and other cosmetics. Now there are just as many brothels and brothels, and the talented and beautiful ladies are all pretty, and they are all rich. As for making explosives out of the glycerin, he would still do it, but it was just to save his life.

In terms of weapons, this time he does not plan to engage in guns, but continues to develop cold weapons. Of course, he will vigorously encourage craftsmen to manufacture. The historical process is there. Now there are rudimentary applications of artillery, and normal development will come out sooner or later. He only provides a healthy system to promote, and the rest depends on the ancient people's experience. Wisdom, they can.

In fact, if the normal historical process is followed, the peak era of cold weapons should be the current big gift, and then the competition for hot weapons will begin. Reluctantly, he abandoned his martial arts skills and was disadvantaged in the war. Even if some of the standard weapons and equipment are advanced, it is useless to be advanced without winning the battle, and it will not reach the peak.

Weapons must be at their peak, and their martial arts must also be at their peak.

Four days passed like this, and the soap had no skills. He first produced some samples, and free trials were started in the depressed Yanggu County. News of large-scale fattening of pigs has also spread throughout Shandong, hoping to arouse people's enthusiasm for raising pigs. Although raising pigs consumes food, it cannot make money. Now the prices of piglets and old sows have skyrocketed, and the prices are so high.

If you are not short of food, then raise more. If you are short of food, then tighten your belt and raise one. Anyway, Official Wang has already said that as long as it is a fat pig that is not sick, he will take it if it is sent over. In such an era where cars were far away and horses were slow, it took only a few days for the news to spread far and wide.

Wang Daguan never expected that what made his name spread was not because he rebelled and became emperor, or expanded the land for three thousand miles, but because of the fucking big fat pig... People in Lianyanggu County mentioned Wang Daguan, No longer a philanthropist, but 'the one who collects pigs'...

"I'm Wu Song, this is my brother Wu Zhi, who met the official. Thank you to the official for asking his brothers to help me and saved me from the lawsuit."

"I've met the official. Thank you for taking my two brothers in."

In the front hall where guests were waiting, Wang Yan sat on a chair and looked at the two brothers, one tall and one short, standing in front of him with a smile. These two men had just arrived and came to see him before they had time to rest. Yanggu County is more than 200 miles away from Qinghe County. They came back by car and carriage. Counting rest, they walked all the way for four days, which was not bad.

Looking at his height, Wu Song is over 1.9 meters and nearly 2 meters tall. As for Wu Dalang, I estimate that he is less than 1.5 meters, or just over 1.4 meters. The two of them together are very impactful. Of course, with Wu Song's height of two meters, he has an impact, but it's just not as strong as Wu Dalang's.

And Wu Song lived up to his reputation as a street kid. He said thank you, but his waist was not bent at all. He was standing tall, and he seemed to be looking down on Mr. Wang. Even though he brought his brother here, he didn't say anything about defecting. Some people are capable, but they are also rebellious. It is normal to check whether this high-ranking official is to your liking and whether he is worthy of helping you. This is the so-called two-way choice.

Wu Dalang was much more mature, and he directly expressed his intention to stay here without saying anything. It was because the person who picked them up told them about Wang Daguan's deeds. He thought it was good and didn't want to bother. He just wanted to live a peaceful life. While talking, the chubby hand held the corner of his brother's clothes and asked him to bow.

Although Wu Song was unwilling, he gave a symbolic gesture and was still obedient.

"Brother Wu Song seems unwilling to work under me? Are you bullying me when I'm young and looking down on me?"

"I don't dare. I heard along the way that the official has a good reputation. He also used money to solve my troubles and avoid lawsuits. He is a first-class good person. I just heard that the elder brother who sent my two brothers here said that the official is a good person. He has good martial arts skills. I came here to find Wu Song because of his courage. I also asked the high officials to give me some advice."

Wang Yan looked at him with a smile and understood the reason. It was just that on the way here, his subordinates boasted about his performance to Wu Song. Wu Song was not convinced, thinking that an eighteen-year-old chicken was no big deal. Or if you have a few arguments or get into trouble, remember it in your heart, and you will be innately emotional when you see him. Wu Song is also immature and has a strong temper, so he wants to compete with others and get angry, which is understandable. Of course, there may also be the idea of ​​​​beating him up to see how popular Wang Daguan is.

He stood up, walked around the two brothers, said "Follow me", and walked out with his hands behind his back.

"Oh, brother, how can you be so reckless? If you offend a high official, how can we two brothers get along?"

"Brother, don't worry, I have my own plans."

It was okay if he didn't say it, but when he said it, Wu Dalang became even more worried. After all, whenever he got into trouble in the past, he always said this, and he was scared when he heard it: "When you compete with a senior official later, you must not be harsh. If you really hurt the senior official, all your calculations will be useless."

Wu Song simply ignored him, stepped forward with his long legs, and followed behind Wang Daguan who was walking slowly in front of him. Wu Dalang sighed and moved his short legs tightly, determined not to let his brother hurt the official. He has lived for more than thirty years. Since he grew up, he has known that he is different from others and has received countless cold looks and ridicules. However, when they met for the first time, there was no ups and downs in the official's eyes, no look down on or disdain at all. He was very familiar with those eyes and didn't believe that he would make a mistake. Based on this alone, he concluded that the officials were absolutely good people.

The house was too big, so Wang Yan took the Wu Song brothers for a while. Wu Dalang was sweating profusely as he trotted all the way, and then they arrived at the empty martial arts field.

The nursing staff who were taking their children to practice martial arts here saw a high-ranking official coming with a strong man. Without any instructions, they all stopped and voluntarily moved out of the middle of the martial arts field.

The leader of the nursing home is named Yue Haichuan. He is a pot-bellied man over 1.7 meters tall. He is not fat. This is the standard for people who can fight in ancient times, including Wu Song. However, it may be because height requires too many nutrients. His belly is not very big, but it is still protruding.

Yue Haichuan was good with a spear and a stick, and he could defeat fifteen other people in single combat, so he became the boss.

At this moment, seeing that the senior official wanted to challenge the strong man to a duel, he tied up his stick and bowed: "Senior official, let me compete with him first."

Wang Yan took off the green gown he was wearing, shook his head and said, "It's okay. Brother Wu Song is so tall. I'm afraid your busy work will be in vain. We have a long time to come. There will be many opportunities to compete in the future, so don't rush for a while."

As he spoke, he threw the gown to Yue Haichuan, revealing the white undershirt and black leggings. The exposed bells and whistles blinded Wu Song. He couldn't help but secretly said that this high official is really a man of the world...

After all, no serious person in these days would give himself a tattoo for fun, let alone a wealthy landowner.

As soon as Wu Song saw the beautiful tattoos and Wang Daguan looking at him with a smile, he immediately tucked the hem of his coat into his trousers, gathered up his loose long sleeves, and prepared to fight.

"Brother Wu Song, should we compete with fists and kicks, or with weapons?"
