Chapter 1,726 Prepare for a Rainy Day

Shen An is very busy.

Ma Xing, the magistrate of Xuzhou, didn't meet him even when he came here. He said he was going shopping.

The rural soldiers had already been dispatched, and the creditors were brought to the Shen family one by one to sit there, drinking good tea, but no one paid any attention to them.

Shen An and his family wandered the streets of Xuzhou, buying some specialties from time to time.

In his previous life, he loved traveling. He would walk everywhere he went and visit all the unique local places. Only then would he be satisfied.

After returning to Shen's house, the creditors stood up to greet him with smiles.

"Are they all creditors?"

Shen An asked Shen Huai.

"Yes." Shen Huai stood to the side, feeling very happy in his heart.

"No, no, no, I dare not call you a creditor."

Hundreds of dollars are just straw paper in front of the person in front of me, so how dare these creditors dare to quibble. What's more, most of them have an idea.

"Shen Longtu is out of business. That money..." A creditor said with an impassioned expression: "I am willing to invest that money in a grain store. We will make money together in the future and bear the losses together."

The other one also smiled and said: "You are too polite, this little money is not worth mentioning."

Shen An had no time to contend with these people, so he turned around and said, "Go and ask your uncle what he means."

Shen Huai went and came back later and said: "Weng Weng said that everything is up to the elder brother. He also said that repaying debts is a matter of course."

Shen An nodded, "That's it, give them money."

He turned around and went out, and Huang Chun came in with a stack of banknotes in his hand.

"Come here, take your own money and make a deposit. Even the interest will be calculated for you. You won't lose any money."

"But... I'm willing to invest that money into the grain store."

The creditor still said the same thing, and he looked so sincere that even Shen Huai was moved.

Huang Chun's face turned cold and he said, "You want to make friends with my husband? I don't have that kind of friendship."

This was a wonderful thing to say, and after the settlement was clear, Huang Chunren gave each of them a silver ingot.

"Mr. Lang said, thank you for lending money back then. The Shen family has never been the kind of people who wait to cross the river and burn bridges. Thank you very much."

With the silver ingot in hand, the money borrowed is worth it.

"Shen Longtu is indeed very particular, and he really deserves to be seen as a person who persuades people with his virtue."

Some people lamented, feeling that they had missed the opportunity to make friends with Shen An, and they would never let go of it in their lifetime.

Later, Zhizhou Ma Xing came from outside.

"I've seen Shen Longtu."

Ma Xing's smile reminded Shen Bin of the uncle next door.

After some pleasantries, Ma Xing asked Shen An the reason for his visit.

"Just paying homage to my late mother."

Shen An spoke very calmly, and Ma Xing smiled and said: "As a son, this is what you should do, but... if there is anything wrong with Xuzhou, please forgive Shen Longtu, just say that someone here will give an explanation."

"You're welcome."

Then the meeting ended.

After Shen Bin waited for him to leave, he asked, "Brother, will Fan Hu be captured by him?"

Ma Xing's purpose was very simple, just to ask Shen An not to do anything, and he would take care of everything.

Shen An shook his head, "I don't have time to wait for him. Someone comes."

Huang Chun came in from outside, and Shen An ordered: "There is a reward of three thousand guan, so get Fan Hu."

"yes."

Huang Chun took the order to spread the news, and the entire Shen family was suppressed.

"It was rumored that he had offered a reward of tens of thousands of dollars. I didn't believe it at that time, but I believe it now."

"He actually offered a reward of three thousand guan to a liar who defrauded him of more than 1,000 guan."

After the news spread, Xuzhou was shocked.

In the state office, Ma Xing smiled bitterly and said: "After all, he still likes to solve this matter in his own way."

Looking back, Shen An took his whole family to visit the grave.

After returning after many years, the tomb looked very neat, with no overgrown grass and no mouse holes.

"Thank you very much."

This must be the result of Shen Qiao's family coming here every year to visit graves. Shen An solemnly expressed his thanks.

Shen Qiao also came with him today. He said: "Back then, your mother passed away not long after she gave birth to Guoguo. Your father also refused to renew their relationship, so he hired a woman to take Guoguo at home, and he took you with him like this. Brother and sister have been officials all the way."

"mother!"

Brother and sister Shen An knelt down.

Shen Qiao said: "At that time... Brother An was still young, and Guoguo was even more ignorant. Your mother is a woman from our family. She is gentle and elegant. She also taught Brother An how to read and read... she can be called a good wife."

Shen An looked at the tombstone and thought about Liang's appearance.

This is probably a compliment for a woman born in our family. The people on Liang's side have not seen any movement in these years, which shows that there is some water in these words.

But no matter what, Shen An was grateful to this mother from the bottom of his heart.

He saluted solemnly.

"Before your mother passed away, what she missed most was Guo Guo. When she left, she was afraid that Guo Guo would be mistreated..."

"mother!"

Guoguo bowed his head and kept wailing.

After a long time, the Shen An brothers and sisters stood up.

"Don't worry, Bianliang is not far from here. You can come here every year from now on."

Guoguo has lost her mother since she was a child and lacks maternal love. So now I look at the tombstone with a bit of admiration.

The group returned to the city and met Chen Song.

"I've seen Shen Longtu."

Chen Song cupped his hands and saluted, "Xiaguan's words and deeds were inappropriate at first, and he was unable to recognize people. As a result, Mr. Shen was deceived and deceived. Xiaguan regrets his mistake and begs Shen Longtu to punish him."

Shen An was not his superior and had no qualifications to punish him.

But everyone knows his nickname Shen Duan Leg.

So Chen Song was very worried after he finished speaking, but he was even more worried about Shen An's reaction if he didn't come.

Shen An glanced at him and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you."

After hearing this with his own ears, Chen Song felt like he was being pardoned, "Thank you Shen Longtu for your forgiveness."

Then came the pursuit.

In just two days, Fan Hu was sent to the Shen family.

"Spare my life..."

After learning that Shen An offered a reward for his capture, Fan Hu felt regretful.

As soon as they met, he told everything, not daring to hide anything.

"After getting the money, this person..."

Shen An thought for a moment, "I originally wanted to break his legs..."

"Thank you Shen Longtu." Fan Hu kowtowed excitedly when he heard that he didn't need to break his leg.

"Nowadays, roads are being built everywhere, and the court often receives local notices asking people to violate them, so we should follow the rules."

Building roads?

Good road construction!

Fan Hu couldn't help but be ecstatic and wished he could lick Shen An's shoes.

After being taken out, there were government officials waiting outside. Huang Chun explained: "My husband said that this person is extraordinary, so be careful along the way."

As he spoke, he touched a few banknotes and passed them over.

Fan Hu was startled, still thinking about the meaning of these words, before he was taken out.

On the road, two government servants were dividing the money, and then they said happily: "Isn't it just a torment? Shen Longtu actually gave me so much money. It's so polite."

As soon as Fan Hu heard something was wrong, he asked, "May I ask the officer, what does this mean?"

The yamen officer looked at him and smiled, "Just ask someone to serve you in prison."

"A villain doesn't need anyone to take care of him." Fan Hu felt his heart sink to the bottom of his heart.

"There are a lot of things going on inside, the most important thing is...but be careful of killing people. Go back and buy some sesame oil for them and give them a warning."

"Yes, you can do whatever you want, as long as no one is killed."

"sesame oil……"

Fan Hu thought of something, and his expression suddenly changed, "Help!"

"Gag his mouth!"

Two government officials dragged him into the prison, handed him a small pot of sesame oil, and warned him: "Whoever kills anyone, I will kill him when he comes back."

"Yes Yes Yes."

The disheveled prisoners inside saw the fair and fat Fan Hu, and they were so happy that they didn't know how to feel.

"This is the best sesame oil!" Someone dipped some sesame oil into his mouth and tasted it.

"Pity."

"But I can be happy."

"Happy! Hahahaha!"

…

Shen An stayed in Xuzhou for another two days, and someone came from Bianliang.

"I've met Brother Dao."

She Qing, who looked like a master and a good person, actually came in person and bowed his head as soon as he saw him.

Shen Qiao trembled, "Anbei, you...you actually practice Taoism?"

Shen An said: "Nothing."

There’s really nothing to say about this!

Can he say that he deceived the brothers She Hui and She Qing back then and became a hidden master from then on?

"Brother Taoist, there have been a lot of people going to Izumo Temple recently, and they all want to see the artillery. Senior brother was so angry that he was beaten out."

"Well done!"

Shen An cheered loudly.

The casting method of artillery is the top secret of the Song Dynasty. If you dare to peek, who will I hit if I don't hit you?

Even the prime ministers and assistants have not seen the process of casting cannons. Who has such a big face?

She Qing smiled bitterly and said, "The person who did it...you know him too, it's She Shen."

Shen An had always felt that the founder of Izumo-monastery had some mischievous intentions. Otherwise, how could he have done such a thing?

Sacrificing wisdom, sacrificing love...now comes the sacrificing of one's life.

"Is it the one who is gifted with artillery?"

"Yes." She Qing said, "Song Qian drank too much and went into the temple to have fun. There was no incense outside, and no one cared about him. Who knew he kept going back, and the person he intercepted was injured by him. Later, Sheshen happened to be there, so he took action... and crippled him."

Tsk tsk!

Disabled!

Shen An felt very happy, "Why is he disabled?"

A broken leg is a minor matter, just re-attach the bone.

She Shen said with a tangled look on his face: "It's just a guy thing... it's been scrapped."

this……

this……

Shen An looked away. She Qing thought it was serious, so he said, "She Qing is just a kick. Who knows that his guy is not solid enough."

This guy is not solid enough to begin with!

Shen An couldn't bear to laugh and said: "But you have reported to the official?"

"Yes, report to the official. Senior brother, when you were not here, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net those people clamored to arrest Shi Shen. Later, they were stopped by the spies who came after hearing the news. The capital has been busy for this in the past two days. Things were noisy. Senior brother didn't care, and Pindao was a little worried, so he came to ask Brother Tao to go back and make the decision."

Naturally, She Hui wouldn't worry. There were only blast furnaces in his world.

Shen An said: "That's fine, I'll go back tomorrow."

Shen Qiao was a little reluctant, "It would be nice to stay a few more days!"

Shen An also thought about it, but Izumo Temple was more important.

"It's just a lawsuit. Just hire someone who can speak well to argue with those people."

Shen Qiao felt that Shen An's way of litigating the lawsuit was a battle of words.

He said goodbye before leaving, "Senior brother, this matter has made the outside world a lot dissatisfied with my Izumo Temple. I am thinking...otherwise, it is better not to take action."

"good!"

Shen An agreed readily.

Take action?

Shen Qiao looked troubled, "An Bei, everything is fine, just don't practice Taoism."

Shen An readily agreed.

Turning around, he asked Huang Chun, "Did you get the handle on Chen Song?"

Huang Chun said: "We are working on it."

"Hurry up so they don't have to stick to means. The result will be today."

At this moment, Shen An was full of murderous intent, and he didn't look like a monk at all.

It was only in the afternoon that Chen Song's matter came out.

"Mr. Lang, Chen Song has been involved in corruption many times. After receiving the money, he protected those criminals. The number of times was... more than twenty times. The total amount of money collected was more than two hundred dollars."

Shen An said with a grim smile: "Next year's Northern Expedition will definitely make a huge contribution, which will scare people to death. I have to prepare for a rainy day this year. If I go, I'll ask him to invite him to drink and bring people here."
