On this day, in the gathering hall of the Qinglong Gang, Meng Dazheng was sitting in the top chair. The other "Six Dragons" were all there, sitting or lying on his left and right. They were listening to a young man reporting the situation. Li Er
His ribs still hurt, and he could only lie down on a stretcher, listening with his ears turned sideways; Zhang San was only missing his left eye, which did not affect his movement. He was lazily leaning on a chair at this time.
Listening, looking a little depressed.
This little guy's surname is Yang, the third oldest, and people call him Yang San. He is the man who was sent by Meng Da to the capital to find out information. Today he came back from the capital, and he also brought the information he got from everywhere.
After hearing what Yang San said, everyone fell into silence, feeling annoyed and frustrated at the same time.
"You are the top scholar in both civil and military affairs!" Meng Da sighed, and then fell into deep thought. It seems that the Qinglong Gang has really messed with someone they shouldn't!
"This damn Xiang family! Kill Xiang Huaiyu with a thousand swords! This has made our Qinglong Gang suffer!" Gan Jiu said bitterly.
In their hearts, everyone cursed Xiang Jia and Xiang Huaiyu many times, and they all wanted to cut this handsome young man into pieces!
"Brother, it seems that Mr. Wu Zhi doesn't know that it was our Qinglong Gang who did this to him. How about we just give up and live in peace and pretend that nothing happened?" Li Er said weakly, always thinking about it.
He still has lingering fears about the scene that night.
"Second brother, did the dead brothers die in vain?" Zhang San was very unwilling and retorted angrily.
"Then third brother, what do you think we should do?" Li Er turned his head sideways, stared at Zhang San closely, and asked with displeasure.
Zhang San felt a little scared when Li Er stared at him. He quickly removed his remaining right eye and said evasively: "Doesn't he still have family? Let's capture his family and force him to submit?" He said to himself.
I'm also a bit lacking in confidence.
"Third brother, no! This is absolutely impossible! If you do this, you will really fight to the death with him and bring our Qinglong Gang to death!" Meng Da was frightened when he heard this and yelled loudly.
The other five people were also surprised and looked at Zhang San in amazement. This Zhang San is really brave and wants to openly confront the magistrate. How is this different from seeking death? It doesn't matter if you die alone, but don't involve us.
Na!
Everyone was angry, and their eyes on Zhang San became more and more unfriendly.
Zhang San originally wanted to open his mouth to speak, but when he suddenly saw the malicious looks from everyone, he was so frightened that he quickly shut up.
These people who can become big bosses in the Qinglong Gang are all ruthless people, and none of them are easy to use. If he insists on going his own way and ruins their affairs, it will probably be a matter of an instant that they kill his relatives for no reason.
He might not even be able to find a grave!
Thinking of this, Zhang San couldn't help but feel a little desperate. Could it be that the hatred of losing his left eye was over? He was unwilling to do so! But even if he was unwilling, what could he do? He said he was cruel, but in fact he was guilty in his heart.
Quite frankly, Wu Zhi's methods also made him feel frightened and uneasy.
"Then let's do this for now. We, the Qinglong Gang, will wait and see what happens, and stay the same to cope with the changes. We won't mess with him for now. I hope he won't mess with us either, and everyone will be safe!" Meng Da thought for a moment, and finally
After making up his mind and giving this order, he looked deeply at Zhang San and strode out of the hall.
Qian Liu and the other four people also looked at Zhang San meaningfully, then lifted up Li Er and walked out.
Zhang San was stared at by everyone and felt terrified and frightened. After everyone walked out of the Juyi Hall, he slowly walked out of the hall full of thoughts and at a loss. It seemed that he had no hope of revenge in this life!
Guihua New Winery finally brewed the first batch of new liquor, which weighed more than 1,500 kilograms. Wu Zhi went to taste it happily and found that the taste was pretty good, similar to the one brewed in the capital. He praised it highly.
Zhang Gui and his wife had a chat with the winemakers, and each family was rewarded with ten coins, which made everyone very happy!
The raw materials for liquor are finally available again, and the Zhuangyuan series of liquors can continue to be produced, and his business plan can continue.
Since Wu Zhi delegated power to County Prime Minister Wen Qiong, all affairs of the county government have been carried out smoothly and have not stopped due to his inaction as the highest official. He feels that he has done the right thing in delegating power, and he is secretly happy in his heart.
But Wu Zhi's troubles came again, why? It's not because of the Qinglong Gang!
He waited for dozens of days, but no revenge or action came from the Qinglong Gang. It seemed that the gang was dormant. But he had always assigned Erhu to watch in secret. On weekdays, the Qinglong Gang was still the same as before.
People were coming and going, but I didn't see any unusual behavior from them, other than attending a funeral.
He felt inexplicable, and he always had the feeling that the Qinglong Gang was brewing and planning some bigger conspiracy, and he was uneasy.
It won't work like this! Instead of waiting for death, it's better to go directly to the door. Wu Zhi made up his mind and suddenly became enlightened.
As a result, the Qinglong Gang could not move, and Wu Zhi took action.
At noon this day, more than a dozen people gathered in the large private room on the second floor of the Song Building next to Weishi County Pier. The lobby on the first floor was also bustling with people.
This was the first banquet hosted by Wu Zhi after he came to Weishi County as the parent official of Weishi County. The guests in the large private room were all prominent figures in Weishi County, including Wenqiong, the Prime Minister of Weishi County, and Wang Mingyang, the chief registrar.
, county lieutenant Wei Gang, Dian Shi Fan Sheng, accountant Mr. Niu Ben, county academic advisor Tang Min and other officials, as well as Fu Dagui, the richest man in Weishi County, who also specially invited the "Seven Dragons" from the Qinglong Gang to participate!
He also invited the other Weishi County government officials over, but except for Ma Bantou, they all ate in the lobby on the first floor of the Song Building. There was enough food and wine, so they could eat as they pleased.
What Wu Zhi is hosting today is a Hongmen Banquet, a Hongmen Banquet specially set for the bosses of the Qinglong Gang! He wants to test and find out the reason why the Qinglong Gang is standing still!
A group of fourteen people sat together. Li Er and Zhang San were injured and could not come, and the other "Five Dragons" of the Qinglong Gang came.
Wu Zhi was the largest official in Weishi County, so naturally he would not greet everyone in person. He entrusted Ma Bantou to do all the greetings and farewells. This made Ma Bantou feel flattered and worked very hard.
Who dares not to come to the banquet hosted by the magistrate? When everyone in the Qinglong Gang came to Song Tower anxiously and entered the large private room, they finally saw Lord Wu Zhi, who had caused everyone in the Qinglong Gang to have inner demons. He was sitting quietly
From the front seat, he stared at them with a half-smile.
"I've seen you, sir!" When Meng Da, Qian Liu and others saw this, they were secretly frightened and quickly lowered their eyebrows and bowed in salute.
Wu Zhi sat quietly and stared at them closely for a while. After observing them, he found that there was no look of resentment on their faces, but instead a look of fear and uneasiness. He couldn't help but be surprised.
"Everyone is here, sit down!" After a moment, Wu Zhi said expressionlessly. The horse leader quickly arranged for the five people to sit down.
"What's wrong? Boss Meng, I see you don't look well, are you sick?" Yu Wenqiong saw the unnatural expressions on Meng Da and others' expressions and couldn't help but asked suspiciously.
"No, no! The weather is not good, it's too hot!" Meng Da quickly covered it up.
The weather is not hot today! Everyone except the "Five Dragons" of the Qinglong Gang feels strange.
"Boss Meng probably got sick due to the night wind in Zhuxian Town! The wind was very strong that night!" Wu Zhi added with a half-smile.
"Ah!" "You!" These words were like thunder in the ears, frightening the "Five Dragons" of the Qinglong Gang as if they were stabbed by needles, they jumped up and looked at Wu Zhi inexplicably with horror, their faces were earth-colored, and their minds were blank.
It turns out that people have already known the whereabouts of the Qinglong Gang, and they have just been wishful thinking for decades!
"What's wrong with you? You're so surprised!" Seeing such a huge reaction from the "Five Dragons" of the Qinglong Gang, Wang Mingyang frowned and asked displeasedly.
"No, it's nothing! The night wind did come to us in Zhuxian Town the night before. Mr. Wu's clever plan shocked us!" Qian Liu was quick to think and quickly opened his mouth to cover it up.
They were indeed shocked, but they were not shocked by Wu Zhi's clever calculation, but they were shocked by the fact that Lord Wu Zhi already knew the fact that their Qinglong Gang intercepted and killed him in Zhuxian Town!
"You guys sit down! Let's talk about what happened between us later!" Wu Zhi was also surprised. He vaguely felt that these bosses of the Qinglong Gang had no intention of revenge on him, but seemed to be afraid of him! This is
Very interesting, there is a lot to do!
When Meng Da, Qian Liu and the other five people saw that Wu Zhi did not have an attack on the spot, they all secretly breathed a sigh of relief and sat down again with a sneer.
They are really scared! There are people from the county government everywhere in Songlou now. If Wu Zhi gives an order to arrest them, they will definitely be unable to fly and the whole army will be wiped out!
"What can happen to your Majesty and the Qinglong Gang? Your Majesty, you might as well tell us and let us all take note of the details!" County Magistrate Yu Wenqiong said with a smile. Yu Wenqiong now sincerely admires Wu Zhi. Such a large county magistrate will be decentralized as soon as he is asked to do so.
, let him get enough of his official addiction, and now he and Wu Zhi live in harmony. He is very pleasing to the eye when looking at Wu Zhi, and sometimes he can make a joke inadvertently.
"You don't need to go into details, it's just a trivial matter!" Wu Zhi smiled faintly, picked up the teacup on the table, and took a sip.
"What a trivial matter?!" Meng Da, Qian Liu and others looked at each other with a wry smile in their hearts.
Murder and arson have become a trivial matter in the mouth of Master Wu Zhi! This makes them feel so embarrassed!
This banquet was a lively one. The government officials in the lobby on the first floor ate, drank, and caroused to their heart's content. The private rooms on the second floor were also lively. In addition to everyone from the Qinglong Gang, even those who were lucky enough to follow
The mabantou who sat with the adults eating and drinking was also in high spirits, and pouring wine became his full-time job. Officials such as Yu Wenqiong and Wang Mingyang also had a good time drinking and chatting. They felt that they had never been so happy and comfortable as today.
Wu Zhi first toasted everyone with a glass of wine, and then drank a few glasses of wine with everyone, then he tasted it briefly and ate slowly. He was the most senior official, and the county government officials and Fu Dagui did not dare to force him, so they could only follow suit.
he goes.
But this banquet was simply a purgatory for everyone in the Qinglong Gang! They were on pins and needles, suffering. It was inappropriate not to eat the food in front of them, and it was inappropriate not to drink the wine presented to them. The delicious food they put in their mouths was like chewing wax.
He Wei. Every time I raise a glass, I can't help but take a look at Wu Zhi who is sitting there chatting and laughing, and then I grit my teeth and swallow. I can't help but feel frightened and sweat profusely.
When the others saw the "Five Dragons" of the Qinglong Gang trembling, they just wondered why they were so nervous and didn't think anything of it. Although they drank and had fun together, they went to have fun in the cup.
Wu Zhi always watched with cold eyes. Seeing the five bosses of the Qinglong Gang who were in constant panic, he couldn't help but feel funny. These gangsters didn't look like the all-powerful eldest brother of the Jianghu who held the power of life and death.
He is no different from an ordinary gangster!
"How about?..." As he was thinking about it, suddenly, Wu Zhi's eyes lit up, and a sudden thought came to his mind. A bold idea popped into his mind, which shocked him.
Rather than destroying them, it is better to harvest them! He wants to conquer the Qinglong Gang for his own use! The rough and tumble in the world is also a kind of talent.
The decision was made, Wu Zhi was in a good mood, and he finally figured it out.
He and the Qinglong Gang originally had no enmity, and the conflict was caused by Xiang's family. Anyway, he and his family were not missing a hair, so why not just let the Qinglong Gang go, turn the hostility into friendship, and try to keep the Qinglong Gang under his control as much as possible
In his camp, strive to be his helper! As for the Xiang family, he will slowly deal with them in the future, and he will not stop fighting!
With Chengzhu behind his chest, Wu Zhi also completely relaxed. Looking at Meng Da and the other five, he suddenly felt that they were a little cute!
