Chapter 288: Qiu Ba are crazy
After Zhang Fu cared about this, he felt a little regretful, feeling that he seemed a little erratic and shouldn't have shown such a malice. However, when he thought of Hao Fenglou, Zhang Fu was angry and simply pretended to be indifferent and worked "safely".
After a few days like this, Zhang Fu appeared to be careless, but he was still concerned about things outside the city. As a result, a lot of news came to his ears, but he almost burst into anger.
"Many people went to search for Hao Fenglou? He was escorting the prisoners? What was this to do? What rice soup did Hao Fenglou pour into these Qiuba people?"
Zhang Fu sat high behind the desk, and heard the report from the captain, he was confused and surprised.
The school official said, "I don't know this humble person, but I know... uh... sir, I dare not say it. If you want to know, just take care of it. Those are all false rumors. If you slander me..."
Seeing the school official hesitating and full of hesitation, Zhang Fu couldn't help but get angry and said in a deep voice: "Bold, can you dare to deceive me when you come to me?"
The school official hurriedly fell to the ground and said, "Sir, please forgive me. If you say that, you will not be able to survive in the army. If the general wants to know the whole story, you will know it after you go and see it."
The left and right could not ask, which made Zhang Fu very angry. He was full of suspicion and had to say, "Be prepared for the horse, I will go out of the city."
Zhang Fu was decisive in his work and immediately took dozens of personal guards out of the city.
This way we arrived at Hao Fenglou and King Zhao's camp. The camp was located on a broad land not far away, surrounded by mountains and rivers. If the troops were in war, it was equivalent to a dead land. If there were troops and horses to attack, I would probably not even have a way out for retreat. However, it is indeed not during wartime, and there are no intention to fight at all. Instead, it is very lively here, with official troops everywhere, and many of them are stationed in and out of towns. They escorted prisoners or brought some old horses to the ground.
In the villages in the camp, many people were talking in groups of three or three. There were laughter and laughter, and there were also scolding and scolding.
Zhang Fu frowned, and the impression here gave him was like a market. He endured his anger and took people in.
Although there were guards at the door, no one stopped him. However, several generals saw Zhang Fu's face changed slightly. They quickly lowered their heads and rushed into the crowd, but they seemed to be avoiding the plague god.
There were noisy sounds everywhere around, nothing more than: "How many have you sold today? Alas, Lord Hao has put the price too low now and I can't live this life. Brothers will not agree. This is all exchanged for blood and sweat. How can it be so worthless?"
Someone said, "I have heard recently that the price will be suppressed tomorrow. If you sell it as early as possible, it will be nothing if it is rotten in your hands. You can sell it at a price earlier."
"This is a profiteer. Look at the young age of Lord Hao. He seems loyal and honest. How could he know that he is so treacherous? Oh, don't mention it anymore. This business is really impossible to do."
"Have you heard it? His Highness Zhao sent someone to pass on a letter to Deputy General Mu yesterday. It will probably not take long. With General Mu's advice, this place will be crowded. We are afraid that we will not be able to sell it at the future."
"Let's take a look at each step, and see how General Zhou is talking about it?"
When Zhang Fu heard this, he was full of doubts. But he didn't know what these Qiu Ba and Hao Fenglou were making.
He simply did not disturb anyone and quickly searched for the central army's tent. There was no defense in this central army's tent. Some people outside were whispering something, while others were silent and stood outside the tent to inquire.
As for the tent, there was a fierce quarrel.
When Zhang Fu passed by, several people at the door recognized him, but each of them looked like a mortal face and quickly ran away.
Zhang Fu stood behind his hands and deliberately stood in front of the Central Military Commission's tent without moving.
But the voice in the account became louder and louder: "Mr. Hao, let's reason. Yesterday was still one or five cents of silver. The brothers chased each other and finally caught more than a hundred. These were all military merits. If it weren't for the urgent need from Lord Hao, the brother would definitely not give up. But why is the price only one or two or three cents today? Why do you tell me that you are going back to explain to everyone? I don't know, and I thought the less was deducted by my brother. Now the brother is in a dilemma. No matter what, the price has to be raised."
"No, it's overcrowded. I only have 5,000 people. But now I'm sending more than 20,000 people. There are still people sending here every day. I can naturally understand General Zhou's difficulties. In fact, this matter should have been stopped. It's because I understand you that I have to continue purchasing. My money is not from the strong wind, it's all my own blood and sweat. Since everyone is so enthusiastic, I have to give it away. Then the price can only be this number. No matter how high it is, someone Hao will die of poverty."
"Mr. Hao, no secret words are spoken, and I am not a person who doesn't know anything. We know a little about your affairs in Liangshan. We have captured many important figures of the rebels. Some people talk about Liu Jian's affairs. Will you have no money? Just raise your hand..."
"I have never heard of Liu Jian. Don't slander me. If you don't know, you might as well think that Mr. Hao has done something shameful. I am a loyal minister of the court, loyal and courageous, and righteous.
"Mr. Hao, you...you are so unreasonable. The price has been falling again and again. The brothers have no way to survive. No matter what happens today, it will be difficult to speak when the time comes."
Immediately afterwards, there was a bang, but a musket sound.
The sound of the musket scared Zhang Fu outside. As for the General Zhou inside, he was probably scared to death, and he had not heard him speak for a long time.
At this time, Hao Fenglou's sneer came out: "Scared me? You think I'm easy to bully? The people who threaten me in this world have not been born yet. Who has never seen me? Will you be scared by a mere guerrilla general? This gun is a lesson for you. Do you like to sell it or not, and leave if you don't sell it. There are no other people in Annan, but there are many people on two legs."
I guess General Zhou was really scared. After a long time, he said aloofly: "Mr. Hao, let's reason..."
Zhang Fu almost vomited an old mouthful of blood outside. What kind of guerrillas is this person surnamed Zhou? He didn't know who this person was. Zhou Guzhe is famous for having a hot temper and unreasonable temper. Now he is really fucking to say reasonable words from him.
Hao Fenglou's tone also eased; "What I like most is to reason, General Zhou, my musket is the truth. You said it directly, should you sell it or not? If you don't sell it, just pull the person away."
"Sell, sell."
"I heard for a long time that General Zhou is a reasonable person. When I see him today, I am indeed well-known. I admire him, and I admire him."
"Where, where, I have heard for a long time that Lord Hao is the most harmonious and wealthy. It is really a blessing in three lives and a blessing in three lives."
"General Zhou and I appreciate each other. General Zhou should not leave in a hurry later. We two brothers must have two drinks."
"Sure, certain, I've been fascinated by Lord Hao, brothers for a long time..."
"Haha...good brother..."
"good friend."
Next was the sound of high-fives, obviously... the two had some physical contact.
Then, General Zhou came out of the tent, his smile had not dissipated, but when he saw Zhang Fu, his face suddenly froze.
Zhang Fu glared at him hatefully, ignored him, walked straight into the tent, and saw Hao Fenglou. Zhang Fu was furious and vented his anger: "Hao Fenglou, what are you doing? You...you...you...you violate military discipline...you..."
When he saw Zhang Fu, Hao Fenglou was not surprised, but smiled: "It turned out to be General Zhang, General Zhang, I haven't seen him for a long time. Are you okay now? General Zhang, don't be angry, please sit down and talk."
Zhang Fu naturally refused to sit down, but just sneered and said repeatedly: "What are you doing here?"
Seeing him angry, Hao Fenglou said patiently: "General, you are doing business."
"Buy and sell? What to buy and sell?"'
Hao Fenglou said calmly: "Of course, it's a prisoner..."
Hao Fenglou came here to buy and sell prisoners. His Majesty had promised that as long as the prisoners "captured" by Hao Fenglou, all the prisoners will be sent to Hao Fenglou on their own. Hao Fenglou is a very real person. Such a good coolie can't be found even with a lantern. What Liangshan needs the most is labor. Since that's the case, don't let these prisoners go in vain.
But he was powerless to catch him. Even if he was all pigs, he couldn't catch them all in a while. So he thought of a way to save time and effort, so he just bought them. When Qiu Ba in Annan saw the money, he would be like killing his life. Otherwise, why would Chen Qinrang dare to do any beheading business for money? Chen Qinrang was a bad guy, and the rest were not much better. When everyone heard that the prisoner could still be sold, carefully
Total, it is much more worthy than handing over to the court. In addition, Chen Qinrang and others were exposed and ended up in a place where they were dead and burial. Naturally, everyone did not dare to touch those "beheads" deals. So after a conclusion, they simply got involved with Hao Fenglou. The government troops in each town are now crazy, searching for rebels everywhere, and going up the mountain and down the sea, and they don't report after being caught, and they just sent it to Hao Fenglou. So this scene happened.
