Chapter Thirty-Four: Bells and Drums Shaking Liangshan

Shi Yong and Hou Jian are in charge of Zhu Gui Hotel, and help collect money and food from passing guests every day. They are very busy. When they hear Ximen Qing returning to the mountain, the two hurriedly welcome them. Shi Yong is fine, but Hou Jian has had a deep relationship with Ximen Qing in Jiangzhou, and it is really intimate when they meet.

Yang Lin, Deng Fei, Hou Jian and Shi Yong introduced each other, and Ximen Qing couldn't wait to ask: "What's the situation recently?"

Shi Yong was a reckless man, just touched his head and smiled foolishly: "Don't worry, Brother Ximen Qing, everything is fine, everything is fine!"

Hou Jian was a careful person. Although he had not been in Liangshan for a long time, he could understand everything inside and outside the mountains. At this time, he said: "Report to Brother Siquan, these days, it is the good time of August 15th, and there are more passers-by on the roads at the foot of the mountain. Therefore, King Chao ordered that single guests do not have to be disturbed and let them go, and the brigade merchants reduced grain and taxes. In this way, people from all over the world have been praised. Our copycat should not only collect less money, but also more!"

Ximen Qing nodded and smiled, "This is the beauty of the long flow of water."

Hou Jian said happily again: "The plan to farming that my brother set has also achieved results. The first harvest of this year made everyone laugh! In the fields up and down the mountain, fruits, vegetables and grains, the growth is so gratifying! Yang Dakang said that with the support of the village, he has never been so strong in farming! No government officials came to exploit the fields, and the refugees he recruited from all walks of life sacrificed their lives to farm, and it was a matter of good weather this year. This good harvest is natural. If it is also a good year next year, the food paid to the mountain can double!"

Hou Jian thought that Ximen Qing would be happy to hear this. Unexpectedly, although Ximen Qing laughed in front of him, he heard the words of double grain in the future and said seriously: "This kind of thing is not allowed! The political achievements of corrupt officials in the court family can be improved but not reduced. If it is a good harvest, if it is a bad harvest, it will be plundered and peeled off the people for the sake of the corrupt officials. Our copycat cannot develop this problem at the beginning! When we like Brother Tianwang, I have to talk about it carefully, but we cannot determine the amount of grain to be paid next year just because of Mr. Yang Dakang's happy words. We Liangshan people are not used to this kind of habit of being very happy with merit!"

Yang Lin, Deng Fei, Shi Yong, and Hou Jian were convinced and said in unison: "Brother Siquan is right!"

Ximen Qing asked again: "Apart from communicating business and promoting agriculture, what else is there to do?"

At this time, he had already entered the hotel. Shi Yong went to the water pavilion behind to cast arrows, leaving only Hou Jian next to Ximen Qing. Looking at Yang Lin and Deng Fei, Hou Jian hesitated and said, "If you talk about important things, there is another thing that makes me uneasy. Brother Song Jiang, with the support of Wu Yong, proposed to dominate the private salt road in Shandong, and Brother Tianwang also followed. So he passed the Green Forest Arrow and convened all related heroes to hold a "private salt conference". In the past few days, Zhujiazhuang set up a camp not far ahead to manage the heroes from all directions. But what made me uneasy was that leader Chen Xiaofei frequently went down the mountain in the past few days, and the mobilization of horse explorers became increasingly tighter. This matter..."

As he said that, Hou Jian's eyes kept surfing on Ximen Qing's face.

Ximen Qing nodded and said, "Brother Hou Jian, you are a person who is dedicated. I don't hide it from you. Today, I turned back from the middle of the road to Erlong Mountain for this private salt and salt road! Do you know that the heroes from all walks of life on Shandong Road are already disappointed with my Liangshanpo such a powerful and domineering act? Do you know that all the private salt dealers have gathered secretly and are preparing to compete with me Liangshan?"

After hearing this, Hou Jian was stunned for a while, and murmured: "It's strange that I've heard the sound of the golden drums in our Liangshan Martial Arts Hall here in the past few days. It turns out that it's not just about practicing, but also about making preparations in secret..."

Yang Lin and Deng Fei looked at each other and nodded secretly. Liangshan people were indeed not ordinary people.

Ximen Qing nodded and said, "Fortunately, brothers Chen Xiaofei were rushing to the whistle. Those private salt dealers formed a secret gang, which was not something that could be hidden from others. It is our luck to make full preparations in the parody for this!"

Hou Jian asked, "What do you think about this situation now?"

Ximen Qing said firmly: "I will persuade Brother Tianwang to take back his life when I return to the mountain this time, otherwise it will be a big fire in the rivers and lakes. Whoever wins and loses, and don't worry about it. The instructor laughs out loud! At that time, the two tigers will fight, and one will be injured, killing three thousand people, and 800 people will be damaged. If the government takes advantage of the situation to attack, our Liangshan soldiers will be exhausted and damaged, and the heroes on the road will be colder than the back, and there will be no resistance inside and no rescue outside. It will be a trend of disintegration - because they are greedy for small profits of private salt, they will ruin the fortune of the parody. How could it be done by heroes?"

When Hou Jian heard this, he was moved and said, "I'm confused, but I didn't think so far! Since that's the case, I'm back to the mountain village with my brother and meet King Chao in the Juyi Hall, so I can't do much effort, and farts can add to the wind!"

At this time, Shi Yong had already returned, and Hou Jian grabbed him and said Ximen Qing's words. Shi Yong widened his eyes and muttered: "I only say that Brother Song Jiang's idea must be good! Who would have thought that there was such a big Tuo Mao? Since that's the case, I am Shi Yong. I have not had enough time to sleep with white steamed buns on my bed!"

At the moment, the ship that was waiting for Liangshanpo to meet was approaching the shore. Ximen Qing, Yang Lin, Deng Fei, Hou Jian and Shi Yong boarded the boat together and came to the Jinsha Beach. When they got on the Jinsha Beach, there was no need for a small minion to inform him. Ximen Qing took four brothers and strode and climbed to the top of the mountain to the Juyi Hall.

When I arrived at the Juyi Hall, I saw that there was no one in it. It turned out that Song Jiang was holding his confidant brother to discuss the annexation of the private salt and salt road in his village. The black guy used the calculations to calculate the white profits. He calculated the dense areas and was happy to dance, happier than winning the top scorer. Before he got the salt profit, he had already divided the salt and profits all the time. He had set a budget. With the amount of money, how could he have to go to Juyi Hall to draw Mao?

Chao Gai is even a hand-off manager. His wife doesn't know how to marry her. She just concentrates on martial arts and entrusts everything to others' shoulders. He is happy to be idle. He brings a bunch of old brothers every day, either drinking or fighting, and is so free and easy.

The group of brothers who were closer to Ximen Qing had just arrived at the Juyi Hall every day to discuss matters. Because Chen Xiaofei found that the private salt dealers at the foot of the mountain were making abnormal movements, he reported to go up the mountain and asked Chao Gai, Song Jiang and Wu Yong to decide.

Wu Yong looked at Chen Xiaofei and didn't catch her eyes. Song Jiang even believed that Chen Xiaofei was on the face of Ximen Qing. He smiled at him and stumbled on his feet. Both of them were in front of Chao Gai, saying that Chen Xiaofei was suspicious and worried. Although Lin Chong argued for Chen Xiaofei, he could not bear to say that Song Jiang and Wu Yong's two four-piece mouths were slapping Chao Gai.

When Chao Gai spoke, a group of private salt dealers gathered together, and they could not help but hold on to each other. A group of mobs, we don’t have to worry about it. Song Jiang and Wu Yong looked at each other and laughed. Lin Chong, Chen Xiaofei and others could only bear the anger and retreat, return to their village, secretly arranged people and prepare for response.

The rest of the people were waiting for this situation, okay! Everyone is stumbling around! King Chao doesn’t care, Brother Gongming doesn’t care, so why should we care? So, for several days, there was no one in Juyi Hall.

Ximen Qing heard the soldiers guarding the Juyi Hall talk about the situation these days, and his face remained silent, but a sense of evil fire in his heart was getting stronger and stronger. So he shouted: "Brothers! Beat the drum! Beat the bell!"

Since Chao Gai went to Liangshan, a big drum side was set up in front of Juyi Hall. If there was an emergency, when the bell sounded, even if the leader of the mountain village was fucking the wife, he would have to lift his pants and report to Juyi Hall. Since the big drum bell was set up, the big drum bell has not ringed several times, and everyone would almost forget them. Today, Ximen Qing wanted to let everyone know that this thing is not a decoration!

At that moment, Shi Yong went to beat the drum, and Hou Jian rang the bell. The bells and drums rose continuously, and the drums were fierce, and the bells were melodious, echoing over the Liangshan River.

After a while, Chao Gai was wearing a strong outfit, carrying a nine-ring splattered sword, and brought Liu Tang, Ruan Xiaoer, Ruan Xiaowu, Ruan Xiaoqi, and Bai Sheng to come quickly. Seeing Ximen Qing standing in front of the Juyi Hall, everyone was overjoyed, and they all came forward to greet him with the sound of bells and drums.

Ximen Qing smiled and said, "Is the King of Heavenly King competing with his brothers for martial arts?"

Chao Gai smiled and said, "It turns out that my brothers can't make a brilliant plan!"

Ximen Qing thought to himself: "Although Brother Chao Gai is a slim figure and is not a leader, he is still open-minded and dedicated to the public. Today, the bell and drums are just ringing, and he led people here. The speed of response is really valuable. Compared with him, those who are in corpse positions in later generations should have filled the ditches!"

While the cold was coming, we saw Lin Chong, Qin Ming, Lu Fang, Guo Sheng, Huang Xin and Ou Peng, who were wearing helmets and armors, and came with high spirits. Although the mountain road was rugged and the armor was heavy, these brothers came to hear the sound of bells and drums, and they were only in time with Chao Gai.

Ximen Qing was overjoyed when he saw this and hurriedly rushed to the ceremony, comforting himself: "It seems that although Liangshan is lazy on the surface, there are still many vigilant people in secret!"

Lu Fang and Guo Sheng were so happy that they were all open-minded that they snatched up and said, "I will see my brother. I am wearing armor and I will not be given a full courtesy. I hope my brother will forgive me!"

When Ximen Qing was comforting them, he heard another scream: "Third brother, why did you come back? I hope you are so distressed!" When I looked back, I saw Jiao Ting.

Jiao Ting and Jiang Jing joined forces to support someone, but Huang Wenbing was panting and sweating profusely. This is exactly:

The front row of Juyi Hall is arranged in Liangshanbo to argue for the winner and lose. But I don’t know what happens next, so I will listen to the next breakdown.
