Chapter 217 Reunion at the city gate

"Is Mr. Zhu stupid? He is both his country and the car shop. He is in charge of the matter. Someone is giving it to him. He still asks this question."

"You are smart. You have to borrow money to spend it. Even if Master Zhu doesn't dig treasures, he has made more than ten times the profit. If you don't say a few nonsense, this little master is going to kill people."

In the minds of many people, the master is just a good person who eats and drinks and does not work. He only needs to instruct the people below to be busy. Those who work hard in everything are not the master, but the servants and maids. This Master Zhu is said to be worth a fortune and kills without blinking. There is also a Juren as his adoptive father. Such a person can still get rich.

As a result, except for "snatching away" the Fang family and Yang family's industries are like masters, everything else is too good to be good. For example, if you take people to patrol the city and check it out, you have to ride a horse, and people around you hold a knife and bow, but this young master actually leads it on his back with weapons and goes to various industries to see it. It's just to take some filial piety. Whoever has a beautiful daughter or even a wife should remember it. As a result, this young master only chats with people who work, and is not asking random questions, and understands many things. He really doesn't look like a rich man.

Zhu Da naturally ignored what they thought. After looking around, he was very satisfied with several industries outside the city, and he would not have any anticipation or cheating. He thought too much about this. After the backer was exterminated and set fire to the fire, the whole country and the big car shop had no luck. It turned out that the relatives of the Fang family and the Yang family left overnight, working hard to make some money and stayed with peace of mind, waiting for the new owner to come.

Of course, what is satisfied is not the smooth reception, but the location and area of ​​the farm and the car shop. The farm shop is close to the official road and is very close to the city. With such a good location, it is natural for business to do. Several farms are only one mile away from the county town. This is the real benefit. In fact, the fields are not necessarily fertile than other places, but if they are closer to the city, firstly, labor is easy to obtain, and secondly, the harvest can be sold in the city, saving the cost of transporting people and animals. Moreover, even if you don’t farm around the county town, it is good to renovate.

Zhu Da also noticed one thing. In the various industries outside the city, not only the places where he inspected, but there were obviously overmanagement. There were more idle people wandering on the streets than normal. You can find out the reason after inquiring. Now there are more and more people coming to the county town, and the price of hired workers has been falling for more than ten days. When the weather is still warm, it is nothing to wander outside. It is getting colder and colder now. It is difficult to stick to it without food and shelter. There is no damage. The county town is relatively inclusive.

Thinking of this, Zhu Da felt a little happy, not because he was gloating, but because in this situation, it would be much easier to recruit young and strong people.

"Two men, this is the goods delivered to the Fang family, it is the goods warehouse of your yamen, and it was not in the past..."

"What Master Fang, that bad guy Fang Ming has finished. Who will give these goods to the city? Or if you don't enter, you will have to get a 10% fee when you go in. This is our Huairen's rule!"

Zhu Da and his men walked around and wanted to enter the city from the west gate, but they encountered a caravan quarreling with the strong squad guarding the city. The white-bodied deputy officer who led the way was laughing. Fang Ming, who was still referring to the official room, was not relying on it, but causing trouble for himself.

"I'm sorry..." Surprisingly, the caravan was not timid, and seemed to speak with anger.

The Zhuangmen and others at the city gate were reasonable, especially those from outsiders. They became angry when they heard this. Zhu Da, who was still more than ten steps away from the card, could hear it clearly. "Be reasonable, I am just rational. Paying fees to the city is the reason for entering the city. You dare not listen to anything. Look at the way you just died in your family. Don't get bad luck to me, so I won't let you enter the city here!"

This cursing is a new routine. Zhu Da glanced at him curiously, and then realized that the officer was not cursing him, but the caravan was indeed wearing mourning clothes. The leaders had mourning belts on their heads. Since there was this change, what business would be done? Is it okay to be at home?

"Okay, I won't let us enter the city, so we will sell it outside the city. Huairen County is so reasonable, I really don't dare to come next time."

"I'll beat you up with a word of nonsense. Get out of here and don't delay the people behind you entering the city."

The more the two sides spoke, the more angry they became, the caravan became a little noisy, and there was more than one person on the squad, but the caravans that often walked outside naturally knew who could not offend, especially the local officials could not afford to offend the force. After saying this angry words, the caravan retreated from the side of the Kazi.

As soon as the person in front of the caravan turned around, Zhu Da saw clearly the other person's appearance. He was stunned for a moment. He actually knew someone he knew. He waved his hand and said, "Long time no see..."

He said that but didn't know how to continue, because Zhu Da didn't know the other party's name. When he returned from the business of Zheng Jiaji, a caravan from the Li family wanted to go back. At that time, the caravan was led by the old man Li Xiu, but the one in front was not Li Xiu, but the young man who was following Li Xiu. He met by chance at that time, but he didn't ask about the name of this person.

Where did the old man Li Xiu go? Zhu Da was not confused for too long. He saw the white cloth strip on the caravan's head and saw the thin coffin on the convoy parked aside. He could probably guess it.

The young man also noticed Zhu Da, his eyes lit up, and he quickly clasped his fists and said, "I never thought of meeting Mr. Zhu here..."

Halfway through his words, the young man was staggered by the person rushing from behind. He turned around in surprise, but found that it was the brave officer who was in a bad shape just now. At this moment, the expression on his face was strange. It was not a provocation, but full of panic, or fear. The weather was so cold that the officer's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he had not seen him just now.

"You... this master, do you recognize Mr. Zhu?" The strong man didn't notice his voice trembling.

The young man from the Li family caravan couldn't touch his mind for a moment and replied subconsciously: "When Zheng Jiaji came to Huairen County, I would go on a walk together, and of course I recognized it."

"This master, the matter of collecting fees when entering the city is in business, Fang Ming broke the rules when he was there. Now he follows the rules, and he has no personal grudges with you." The officers of the Zhuang class were a little relaxed, but he still explained hurriedly.

"Still making things difficult?" Zhu Da had already walked up to him and asked with a smile.

The young man from the Li family caravan only saw the officer trembling, his face was instantly bloodless, and his voice had changed: "Master Zhu, the young one is just a matter of doing the job, and he is not making things difficult for him, so don't... "

At this time, the young man from the Li family caravan finally understood something. The powerful man who was just now was afraid of the young man who was smiling and greeting him. Zhu Da was five or six years younger than him, but he made these manned men look like this.

"If you do your job, no one blames you. Don't charge any fees for these goods. Now I'll buy them all." Zhu Da didn't make things difficult for the strong man. He just told me a few words. No matter what goods the Li family caravan brought back to the Fang family's business, Zhu Da was ready to continue the business of the business and help him with his old acquaintance.

After receiving this sentence, the strong man breathed a sigh of relief. He turned around and changed his smile. He called the caravans into the city. He said while busy: "You have met a great charity. Remember to burn incense and worship Buddha when you go back."

The young man in the Li family caravan also relaxed a lot and clasped his fists and said, "Thank you Mr. Zhu for your kindness, but these goods are not low, Mr. Zhu doesn't do such a business. Isn't that going back..."

"It's okay, I have accepted the Fang family's industry. His business is my business now. What's wrong with the uncle of the Li family?" Zhu Da was polite and asked a question directly.

Hearing this inquiry, the young man in the Li family caravan suddenly turned red. He wanted to speak, but he choked but couldn't speak. An older guy behind him said, "This young man, my master caught a cold and got infected with the wind and cold when he passed by Weiyuanwei. He rushed back to the doctor who was looking for in Weiyuanwei. It was too late. He said that it was affecting old injuries and illnesses..."

Speaking of this, the older guy was also a little uncomfortable. When he was recovering from his mood, the young man said in a hoarse voice: "My uncle said that this day would be sooner or later, and asked me to finish this business. He also said that it was cold, so he put him in a coffin and transported him back to Daizhou. Unexpectedly, he didn't expect it."

People who have known each other for less than a month have a deep chat at night. I thought I would have a chance to deal with them in the future, but I didn't expect to leave like this. Zhu Da felt sad. From childhood to adulthood, such things were actually not so strange in this era. Others were even numb. Only Zhu Da would feel impermanence.

It is understandable that the young man in front of him will have a conflict with the servant. Under such grief, it is difficult for people to maintain a stable mood and respond normally.

"You are lucky. If you meet me at this moment, and if you are so reckless in other cities, you will be killed in the middle of the night." Zhu Da was not polite and said a few words directly. The young man from the Li family was extremely embarrassed and wanted to explain, but found that he had no way to speak. It was not new for the three-squad-level officers to use martial arts to rob. As long as there is no miserable, who can do anything? Moreover, when Zhu Da said this, he could see the old figures in the Li family caravan nodding. I think he had no intention of persuading him just now.

When we met by chance, many conditions were not yet ready, and Zhu Da was not prepared to have any connections. He just said, "It's a pity for Uncle Li. You should also be mourning and follow the changes. After delivering the goods, you can go back to your hometown after resting for two days, so that Uncle Li can be buried in peace."
