Chapter Fifty-Four: The Tree Wants to Be Quiet, But the Wind Doesn't Stop

In a blink of an eye, half a month passed!

July is approaching, the sky is like fire, the ground is like a steamer, and the weather is unbearably hot! The guards inside and outside Chaojiazhuang still wear tight-fitting vests to reveal their bronze skin, shouting slogans, long-distance running, frog leaping and other military training.

The earthen walls of Chaojiazhuang are already two to three meters high, and the newly built houses inside are neatly planned. The Chenjia villagers who came to join the village have properly settled each household with a new house. Together with the poor people, they have been placed in various places according to their ability.

The scale of the forgings, breweries, brick kilns and other industries under the name of Chaojiazhuang has expanded rapidly. It is roughly estimated that it has solved the employment problem of thousands of people.

No one dared to cause trouble in the Yuncheng area, and the county magistrate was in a good mood and was particularly cheerful. Many of the king's staff were sent to express condolences with food, building materials and other supplies.

In addition, Jinbaozi Yang Lin led a team to deliver food to Wangjia Market Town. They were all holding weapons and looked fierce, and no one dared to go back on their word.

More than ten large granaries were specially built inside and outside the Chao Mansion. Every day, vast teams would transport food. Bags of rice and noodles were reassuring.

If you have money, food and people, you are not afraid of thieves!

Just as the people around him said, Chaojiazhuang is becoming more and more prosperous day by day!

In addition to dealing with the business affairs of the village, Chao Gai practiced martial arts and trained guards. He also gathered with his brothers to discuss the current situation.

The only thing that added a little interest was that Mr. Chao accidentally saw the little girl visiting Chao Qiang with a food box, so he learned musical instruments from the Zhang family. Whenever he had time, he would play, play, and sing little songs...



The main thing is to try every means to bring Chao Qiang and this girl together. More than ten days were not in vain. Chao Qiang's injury gradually improved, and he was taught experience. The fight with this girl was fierce. When marriage came, there was no way to stop him.

But in private, he said that he didn’t want to get married first, and insisted on holding a happy event together. Perhaps with the beautiful woman by his side, Teacher Chao didn’t scold anyone anymore. He smiled when he met everyone, as if he was a different person.

For this reason, Guo Sheng racked his brains and couldn't figure it out. He always said sadly that he was also saving people. Why was he so handsome and unrestrained and no one admired him?



"I approached cautiously, fearing that you would wake up from your dream

I just want to kiss you gently, don't worry

I know it's not easy to be with you

We come from different heavens and places, but you always feel like you are with me..."

The song "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing" floated from the backyard of the Chao Mansion, making people hear the guard. The villagers stopped to listen and looked towards the direction of the song with admiration on their faces.

There's a reason why everyone makes that look!

During this time, apart from talking about marriage, Chao Gai spent his free time studying with musician Zhang Bo. He also had amazing talents in playing, playing and singing. Everyone in the family felt that his master was a god descended from heaven and could do anything.

He is talented in literature and martial arts, can train soldiers and fight, cook and make wine, forge and burn kilns, and now he can also sing and compose music. Is there anything he can't do?

"No, no..., I'm just standing on the shoulders of my predecessors." Every time Chao Gai heard someone talking about him or was looked at with admiring eyes, he felt a little ashamed and always kept saying this in his heart.

In the pavilion in the backyard of Chao Mansion, Chao Gai sat in front of a guqin, singing and playing. The musician Zhang Bo next to him was humming and giving instructions, with a smile mixed with a hint of admiration. He admired the great man in the world for having such talent.

He was the one who knew best about the Mr. Chao in front of him. He could play a ditty for days and nights without repeating it. He had never heard it before and it was probably composed by him. If he devoted himself to studying this technique, it would be easy for him to become a celebrity.

It’s just that this man has no intention of doing this, and Zhang Bo secretly sighs that it’s a pity. After all, he has studied for a few years and has been experienced for many years. What he has seen and heard these days is that the Chao Mansion recruits guards for training, has enough food and grass, and still makes large purchases. He is willing to give charity.

Helping poor people shows that he has great ambitions!

"Hey, musician, don't be distracted, how do you play this tune?" Chao Gai was still very unfamiliar after just a few days of learning to play the piano. He suddenly felt out of tune while singing. Then he looked at Zhang Bo next to him, who was stunned, and couldn't help but whistled to urge him.

"Hehehe, Master, I remembered something." Zhang Bo smiled awkwardly.

Chao Gai saw a hint of regret on his face, and for a moment of confusion he guessed what he was thinking. It was probably that he had no intention of studying and wasting his talent. However, he didn't point it out, thinking that it would be okay to give him a false reputation.

After all, this stubborn musician still has some talent. He writes the lyrics and arranges the music for every little song he sings, and his songs are popular and melodious.

Next, Chao Gai sang and played the piano, while Zhang Bo hummed and guided. Sometimes Chao Gai would take the opportunity to talk about the rhythm of later generations of music. In the midst of mutual discussions, the sound of the piano and the singing were exciting.

Mr. Chao spent his leisure time playing the harp and singing elegantly. He waited for the birthday incident to pass and traveled to various places. But the tree wanted to be quiet but the wind didn't stop, and trouble came to the door!



Jeju Water Town.

The Lijia Daokou Hotel ostensibly receives businessmen, but is actually the eyes and ears of Liangshan. One is responsible for inquiring about information, and the other is doing business on the side.

However, the new shopkeeper Zhu Gui put an end to this despicable method after he took office. He said that he had killed all the merchants, and he still wanted to find out some trivial information?

That day Chao Gai talked to Zhu Gui for a long time, just to get him to defect to Liangshan. He said goodbye early the next morning and took two companions to Shuibo Liangshan to join him. When he saw Wang Lun, the scholar in white, he was indeed a narrow-minded person.

I learned that Zhu Gui could read and write, was good at martial arts, and could run a hotel and do business. Although his face was full of smiles when entertaining, his eyes were extremely alert. He entered Liangshan smoothly, but was sent outside the mountain to stay away from Dazhai.

Zhu Gui, a delicate man, looked at this and laughed in his heart. He thought of Chao Gai's attitude towards him and the enthusiasm of the three brothers of the Ruan family, Li Kui and others. He understood that it would be difficult for Liangshan to be flooded with water, and it would only be a matter of time before it was destroyed.

Now he is a spy with secret missions. One is to run a restaurant and recruit his own people to train. The other is to collect useful intelligence from the outside world, monitor Liang Shanbo's movements internally, and report to Chaojiazhuang at any time.

Today, shopkeeper Zhu Da is personally receiving a strange hero. He is in his thirties, tall, with a black face and a small black beard, and is very cautious.

He brought with him a thousand shi of grain, and later 5,000 shi of grain as a stepping stone. It was not to join the gang, but he just hoped to go to Liangshan to ask for a meeting with the leader of the village. Moreover, he was so sneaky that he did not dare to reveal his real name, which had to arouse suspicion.

Zhu Gui was a cautious person, so this person naturally aroused his suspicion, so he invited him to the back room to entertain him. After pushing the glasses and changing the cups, he inquired and learned that the man's name was Han Yong. He was from Hangang Town, dozens of miles away. He wanted to ask for help when he encountered injustice.

Liangshan asked for help.

Six thousand shi of grain is not a small amount!

In addition, Zhu Gui has been in Liangshan for less than a month and is currently just a leader. When encountering such a big event, he can't make the decision at all, so he can only go back to the mountain to report to Wang Lun.

He had a drink with the big man named Han Yong for a while, and asked the waiter to arrange a rest before he hurried to the backyard. Opening the door was the 800-mile water moor. He quickly jumped onto the waiting boat, and the gangsters saw him urging him.

We rowed quickly, turned around and flew away, riding the wind and waves to reach the island in half an hour.

Zhu Gui rushed up to the golden beach without stopping, and rushed through three Wanzi cities one after another. He went straight to the Juyi Hall and found the white-clothed scholar Wang Lun. He touched Tian Duqian, Yunli Jingang and Song Wan, and reported Han Yong's incident truthfully.

Six thousand shi of grain is enough for eight or nine hundred people on the mountain to need for a year. This is equivalent to the harvest they brought their team to borrow grain from nearby landlords several times.

There is no reason to be unhappy!

After receiving Wang Lun's order, Zhu Gui immediately returned to the hotel and told the news. Han Yong took him by boat to the giant island and went straight to the Juyi Hall. As soon as he passed through the three passes in front of the mountain, he saw Wang Lun and Du Qian.

, Song and Wan were waiting at the door. They stood on tiptoes and stretched their necks, looking forward to it.

Zhu Gui was very disdainful and complained, it was too cheap! But with a smile on his face, he pulled Han Yong forward to introduce both parties.

After some greetings and greetings!

He saw that Wang Lun had ordered a banquet and was about to enter the hall to welcome Han Yong. He really wanted to stay and listen to what was being discussed, but his current status prevented him from participating in important events, so he could only sigh inwardly and prepare to go down the mountain to leave.

But perhaps Wang Lun was showing his generosity and kindness in front of outsiders, and he actually stretched out his hand to stop him: "Brother Zhu Gui, wait a minute, you are so busy during this period, it is a blessing. Brother Han Yong was recommended by you, so please stay with me!"

"

"Thank you so much, Master!" Zhu Gui was overjoyed and bowed to the end.

Immediately, he followed Wang Lun and the others into the Juyi Hall. The guests and hosts were seated. He chose a seat to the side and sat down. A minion brought him tea!

Han Yong obviously had something to do. He took a sip of tea, put down the tea cup and said with a smile: "Master Wang, I came to pay homage to the mountain this time to give you a fortune. A total of 30,000 gold and silver coins, and 10,000 stones."

Food and grass are given as gifts!”

Touching Tian Duqian, Yunli Jingang Song Wan heard this, and his face flashed with joy. Wang Lun was not a fool, and he understood that he would not be rewarded for his merits. He leaned back on the high chair: "Brother Bolong,

If you have something to say, just say it! If you have any difficulties or problems, just say it. If you can help, I will definitely help."

"Master Wang, the eight hundred miles of water is a natural barrier, and there is nothing Jeju officers and soldiers can do." Han Yong sighed with emotion at first, and then changed his words: "But you know that the situation in Liangshan is worrying, and a disaster will be imminent in the near future!

I estimate that the three village leaders will only end up miserable."

This sentence is really amazing!

Wang Lun straightened up from his chair. Du Qian and Song Wan were furious. They slapped the armrests and scolded them for being presumptuous. They wanted to call the minions in but were stopped by Wang Lun.

"Brothers, wait a minute! Brother Han, don't beat around the bush, just say what you have to say. This is Liangshanbo, there is no government spy, so you can speak freely." Wang Lun looked at Han Yong with a smile but a hint of threat.

When Han Yong saw that the other party was aroused, he said his intention calmly: "Master Wang, did the three of you in Shuibo know that Chaojiazhuang and Chao Bao were recruiting Xiangyong for training? There were almost five hundred people in Yuncheng County.

The master strongly supports him, and now he is doing it in a good way, which is a threat to Liangshan..."

"What a good thief, how dare you stir up trouble." Zhu Gui, who was sitting in the corner, listened to Han Yong's talk, and sighed in his heart when he saw the smile on his face. There are indeed no officers and soldiers on Liangshan, but it doesn't mean that there are

It must be safe!
