Chapter 017

"What is it? Do you want me to dig it out and then bring it to you?"

Is there something shameful buried in the ground? It's either money or people. He really didn't expect that things would turn out like this? Zhu Hansan's heart skipped a beat and he asked warily.

"Boy, don't be nervous. I have to dig it for you, but I have to have my people watching from the side. After the job is done, I will give you three hundred gold as a reward. It can be regarded as a reward for saving Ning'er.

how?"

It seemed that the buried thing was very important to Zhang Bao. As he spoke, his face looked particularly heavy.

"Let's do this, you can bring the three hundred gold now, and I will give you the key to the shop now. Early tomorrow morning, I will leave Jingxian County with my family and work, and go somewhere else for a few days. I will come back in half a month.

How about coming back? It saves me the chance of seeing something I shouldn’t have seen or touching something I shouldn’t have touched. I’m just a commoner and don’t understand the world of your great men.”

Zhu Hansan shook his head slightly. He knew that in this Jizhou territory, apart from the government, the Zhang Jiao brothers were the most powerful. But as the saying goes, if you don't have two or three, how can you dare to go to Liangshan? This is not a game. You can be resurrected after you die.

If this kind of thing is done carelessly, not only will he be born, but his family will also suffer. Zhu Hansan is not a great saint, he just wants to live peacefully.

"Hehe, you are quite clever, but have you ever thought about how you bought that shop? Even if I want you to leave, that old boy Zhang Feng may not agree easily, right?

"

Zhang Bao chuckled, touched his bald head, and said sadly: "Wang Wu is just a pawn in the government office. Do you really think that your little friendship can allow you to buy that shop so easily? To be honest.

Let me tell you, Zhang Feng was the one who led people to search that shop in the first place. He asked you to seize that shop just to lure us into action so that he could seize the opportunity to close the net and make a profit."

"What do you want me to do?"

A few days ago, Zhang Liao also told him that there were some people outside the shop... surveillance. At first, Zhu Hansan didn't care, thinking it was the jealous merchants who sent people. But now after listening to Zhang Bao's words, he felt that nothing was wrong.

It's so simple. Since he got on the pirate ship, he can only save his life and obtain the maximum benefit. His trump card is only Zhang Liao, who has been with him for more than a month. Not to mention that Zhang Liao is still just a child.

Zhang Liao and Zhu Hansan at their peak state did not dare to take a gamble. As the saying goes, it is difficult for two fists to beat four hands. In this era of cold weapons, the most fearful thing is being outnumbered. If you are strong in martial arts, you may be able to defeat ten people, but what about a hundred people?

?What about a thousand people? For a wealthy family like Zhang Feng or a gangster with evil intentions like Zhang Bao, they can easily pull out hundreds or even thousands of people to pass through the county to block you. Let’s not talk about the combat power for now.

, but the strength in numbers is real.

'Mmp, if I have hundreds of men with knives, how can I be afraid of you? The worst case scenario is that after I'm done, I'll go into the mountains and become a bandit.'

After thinking about it, Zhu Hansan cursed secretly in his heart and said angrily: "Let me tell you, young master, although I am afraid of death, we who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. Three hundred gold is too little, so let's talk about something affordable."

come out."

"

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Three hundred gold is still less? It’s enough for you to buy the vacant position of county magistrate in this county. Do you think you can be safe just by being a small businessman? It’s really fantastic. I’m in a good mood, so I’ll give it to you.

Let’s talk about the local government system in today’s world. The emperor openly sells his official positions and titles. The whole world knows this. A county magistrate is worth 10 million yuan in a large county. Even though Liu Yao was a retainer of Liu Xu, King of Anping

, but he has only been the county magistrate for just two years. He still has to pay for the 10 million yuan. Where will the money be handed over to the court? In the end, it must not be obtained from you lowly businessmen, the common people

How much money do you have in your hand? Even though your business is booming now, in the end you are just a fat pig in the eyes of others. The reason why I don’t touch you now is because you haven’t grown fat yet. Then Wan Muzhai has taken root in Jing County for several years.

It took ten years and several generations of operations to reach that scale. You still want to expand your business to the whole county? I can tell you bluntly that when your Chenxiang Pavilion gets its business done, others will do it.

Come to kill pigs, bleed them, and cut the meat in exchange for money."

Zhang Bao stood up and walked to the shocked Zhu Hansan, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and sneered: "With no power in your hands, no family, and no backing above, even if I meet a fat sheep like you, it will be inevitable

Are you excited? You are a talented guy who can do things and make money. This is why Liu Yao gave you ten gold pieces yesterday. Do you really think people will believe your flawless story about the Eight Immortals? Did you know that Liu Yao originally came from the county?

How long did it take for the Prime Minister to climb up to the county magistrate level? Only half a year. This shows that this person’s means of amassing money are extraordinary. My subordinate’s shop serves as a warning. Don’t always think too hard about yourself. Young people have

It’s good to be motivated, but don’t let others treat you like a pig, right?”

Zhang Bao's words were like a heavy hammer blow in Zhu Hansan's heart. After his advice, some things that he had not thought through before were now suddenly understood. Even the emperor openly sold his official position and title, which shows that today's world

Most of the officials are what they are. As a businessman, since you have invested, you must at least get back what you originally invested. This is human nature. Being an official requires money, being promoted requires money, and being transferred also requires money, and the amount is not small.

, How much money do ordinary people have in their hands? There may be some people who kill the goose to lay eggs, but most people will not do that. If the place they are in charge of is unstable, the court will definitely replace the officials. In that case, the official position that has just been obtained will

If it’s gone, who would be willing?

Just like big fish eating small fish, there are always a few big fish in a body of water, and the others are the rations they raised in captivity. They can eat them whenever they want. Don't think that the small fish will grow up.

Because big fish will definitely not let instability appear in the waters they rule.

Just like in some modern workplaces, officials do not necessarily have to be talented, but they must have a background. Even if you have great abilities, you are just a wage earner under others. It is simply difficult to become a person in power.

It is difficult to reach the top, and the competition is fierce. There are more wolves than meat. Even in that position that you think is unfair, there may be many people watching silently in the dark.

This is the reality, and this is why in this lamentable era at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the children of the aristocratic families will always have the last laugh. It is not so much the chaos of the world and the struggle of princes for hegemony, but rather the reshuffling of the cards, the replacement of power, the big forces, and the big capital.

What I don’t want to see is the new forces that can

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

A force that threatens its own development and continuation.

"You gave me these three hundred gold because you want me to be the county magistrate?"

Zhang Bao's blunt and extreme words just now really hit Zhu Hansan's ambitions. He gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and secretly made up his mind. Since one road couldn't work, he would use a two-pronged approach to achieve business success.

, then he will be the biggest official there. When the time comes, he will have money, power and people, and let’s see who dares to be jealous and go against him.

In fact, what Zhu Hansan didn't know was that Zhang Bao's unintentional words caused Zhu Hansan to embark on another path, a path in which he could only move forward and not dare to retreat, a path full of intrigues and bloodshed.

"It seems that you are not too stupid! Since Zhang Feng ruined my big business, I naturally want to support someone and fight him to the end. It is best to take his place."

Zhang Bao said with a smile.

"What's my benefit?"

He clenched his fist tightly and then loosened it, repeated several times in a row. It can be seen that Zhu Hansan's heart was extremely unstable at this time. He was blatantly telling you that he was going to use you as a gunman, but you couldn't resist, at least not now.

Such an aggrieved situation almost caused the out-of-touch Zhu Hansan to collapse.

"Why don't you send one of your own to take this seat?"

Zhu Hansan asked lightly with anger in his eyes.

"If someone suddenly appears, Liu Yao and Zhang Feng will become suspicious. Maybe they will join forces together, which will be detrimental to my future arrangements. But your kid is different. A native of Jingxian County has no power or power."

You are powerful, and you have made enough money to be a county magistrate in this short period of time. Who wouldn’t covet this kind of talent? As long as you sit in the position of county magistrate, not only will they not be wary of you, but they will try to win over you as much as possible.

With your abilities as a kid, wouldn’t it be extremely easy for you to deal with Liu Yao and Zhang Feng?”

Zhang Bao chuckled.

"I understand. As for the money, I will send someone to get it later. If there is nothing else, I will leave first."

Zhang Bao didn't look like a man with well-developed limbs and a simple mind at all. He was simply a wise and foolish bastard. To be honest, Zhu Hansan had already begun to be afraid of him.

After Zhu Hansan left, Zhang Ning rushed out from the side and said with a sweet smile: "He agreed? Second uncle, how about it? Your niece has good taste, right?"

"He is a good seedling, able to bend and stretch. This kind of person will live a long life!"

Zhang Bao rubbed Zhang Ning's little head lovingly, then raised his head and looked into the distance, smiling lightly.

As the saying goes, good people don't live long, and disasters last for thousands of years. Zhu Hansan's typical villain mentality is most suitable in complex situations, and it is also the most difficult to understand and control.

After returning home, Zhu Hansan locked himself in the room alone, thinking about the way forward.

Unconsciously, it was already the moon on the branches. Zhu Hansan finally made up his mind and murmured, "Zhang Feng, Liu Yao, Zhang Bao, you all want to use me as a chess piece, you have to see if I can control this chess piece well. I will

I just want to make some money safely, I just want to find a wife and live a good life, and you won't let me do that. Well, I will definitely do better than you. Then we will see, who of us can have the last laugh?'
