Chapter Thirty-Six Meet Big Brother

Yao Cuo's home is in the southwest of the capital, where the Manchus live with red flags. When the Manchus entered the customs, they lived separately from the Han people. More than two hundred years later, this taboo has long been broken, and the Manchus and Han people have long been mixed.

Residence, Bingmasi Hutong is where Yao Cuo lives. Li Guolou looked at his pocket watch and found that it was already past noon. The capital was so big that he had to report to his superiors today and it was impossible to report to the Yamen again.

Li Guolou knew that the Qing Empire was currently tightening expenditures, and the funds allocated to the six ministries were seriously insufficient. Each officer had to take a vacancy, and there was an extremely shortage of personnel in the yamen. He was going to have two-thirds of the vacancy taken by the chief Yao Cuo, so

What should I do if I meet Shaoqing and Master Bao comes to check?

Ma Dequan told Li Guolou that everyone knew that the twenty vacancies were filled by gangsters from the area under Li Guolou's jurisdiction.

On the carriage, Li Guolou asked: "Ma Dequan, will these Youth Gang people commit crimes?"

Ma Dequan said: "Generally, they don't commit crimes in the areas under our jurisdiction, and their elder brother doesn't allow it. Rabbits don't eat grass on the edge of their nests. Besides, they also have legitimate businesses, and some are already serious. The Qinggang is actually the most peaceful gang in the capital. But those

Small gangs fight and kill endlessly. Especially today's Western carriage business and Fushou drug business. Both of these businesses have income every day. All the sects are jealous and have already killed each other. Every day, Yongding River

There are corpses inside. Who is the dead person? You can tell at a glance that there are tattoos on his arms. Because of this kind of case, the yamen has been filled with smoke and cannot be solved. Mr. Bao has been having headaches all day long about this kind of gang case.

"

Li Guolou asked: "Isn't it important to negotiate in the world? It's enough for the bosses to draw up the territory."

Ma Dequan sighed: "Negotiations are useless. Nowadays, they are just a mess of words. Some people are carrying the flag of the Qing Gang. In fact, they have been independent for a long time. They worship during the New Year and stay together when worshiping ancestors. Leader Han cannot be convinced.

Everyone, each branch has its own helm, and each street is fighting on its own. Some people are deliberately causing trouble, so we can only pretend to be stupid and stay away. Wait for them to find a way out. Today we have solved a case, and Xu Xiaohu has to take it.

There are many serial murder cases."

The meat bun in Li Guolou's hand fell onto the carriage because he was so frightened by Ma Dequan's words that he couldn't hold it.

Ma Dequan continued: "As for Man Youli, who cannot escape the crime of being an accomplice, he has already been imprisoned. How can Master Bao's killing stick be in vain? This is to ask the Ax Gang to be more honest, otherwise the Yamen will launch a city-wide sweep.

.”

Li Guolou nodded and said: "It makes sense! Man Youli is not a good person, so he deserves to suffer a little. But will he be beheaded?"

Ma Dequan whispered: "I think as long as the Ax Gang surrenders first and stops causing trouble, Master Bao will let Man Youyang go back. Otherwise, Man Youyang can only accompany Xu Xiaohu to the execution ground."

Li Guolou sighed: "This is Qingtian!"

Ma Dequan rolled his eyes at Li Guolou and said, "Little Liz, you have to remember that Mr. Bao is already the most honest official in the Qing Empire. Thinking about us, the world is as black as crows."

The two covered their mouths and snickered, looking at each other. They never expected that after fighting side by side for one night, they would become good brothers.

Li Guolou warned: "Ma Bing, I will meet Brother Yao later and leave immediately, saying that there is something else going on in the yamen. You can't speak, and I'm afraid you'll talk nonsense."

Ma Dequan said: "Don't worry, Brother Yao has already put me on the death list without even looking at me. I'll just leave in a puff of smoke."

Li Guolou glanced at Ma Dequan and said: "I can see it. You must not be a good boy. Brother Yao found out about your dirty hands and feet. Who betrayed you? I also expected it. Don't think that someone just invited you to drink.

My friend, I’m in trouble now.”

Ma Dequan was shocked and exclaimed: "Xiao Lizi, you are really a detective! We didn't even talk about this, but you saw through my background. How did you know?"

Li Guolou laughed and said: "Ma Biang, I will tell you when you kill someone one day. Now I can only let you guess by yourself."

Ma Dequan said cheerfully: "You have a sharp mind and are very good at what you do. Although I am not good with my mouth, my heart is like a mirror. For people like you, one day you will betray Brother Yao. If you don't believe me, we can make a bet."

Li Guolou shook his head and said: "Ma Dequan, you are wrong about this. Why do I care about Brother Yao's position? Even if there are a hundred brothers Yao who are not, I can't kill the man who dug the well. I am free and unrestrained,

This is the life I like. I want to climb up and get promoted to the third level. Do you understand?"

Ma Dequan said: "Little Lizi, I don't see anything else. You don't need to learn the old man's lies anymore. The second grandma's request to you today is to express her sincerity and loyalty to keep you."

, I can see that from now on you will be the second mistress’s first little husband-in-law.”

Li Guolou smiled freely and said: "Horse cake, this kind of joke is not funny at all. There is already smoke coming out from behind my butt. How can I light another fire? Don't tell it again when you get to the Yamen. This will easily upset Brother Yao."

Misunderstandings have arisen. The profession of telling jokes is not suitable for you. The ultimate goal of your pursuit is to be an upright Ma Catou who has suffered great hatred and eliminates harm for the people. From now on, you will develop in this way and follow the path of the lowest level person.

Let the poor people talk to you if they have anything to say. Division of labor and cooperation are all about finding your own position. Do you understand?"

Ma Dequan understood it, but he felt a little uncomfortable. He couldn't help complaining: "Xiao Lizi, then I will have fewer opportunities to ask for hard-earned money, and sometimes I have to pay back. This position is easy to find, but the money flows out of my hands."

Already."

Li Guolou laughed and said: "Don't worry, Ma Bi, we are grasshoppers on the same rope. We share life and death. You will not be missing out on the benefits."

Ma Dequan has tied his fate to Li Guolou. No one can make a fortune without a fortune. He has been reborn and is no longer a poor low-income person. One night changed the fate of many people, and Ma Dequan is one of them.

The beneficiary. He does not have to worry about being kicked out by Yao Cuo. He has a big brother to rely on and his life will get better in the future. The person sitting opposite him is the master to whom he is loyal.

Ma Dequan couldn't help but show his slave look, nodding and bending down and smiling at Li Guolou. This was the standard look of the Qing Empire. Who doesn't know this trick? Just use a little strength and use a little strength, and you will be a coolie for the rest of your life.

Yao Cuo rarely reports to the Yamen now. He is now in his own way. Officials like Mr. Bao who are sent from above do not care about him. How can they take care of him? There are so many cases at hand. If you just say something is wrong, Mr. Bao will just

I can watch Yao Cuo drift away.

An official with an iron-clad camp, like Bao Yiyi, has a term of office, and he can leave after five years. As a subordinate, as long as he is filial and the case is settled, Bao Yiyi can no longer ask his subordinates to do anything.

? On the other hand, what can he give to his subordinates? It seems that he still owes his subordinates a lot of things. Even the most basic living facilities are required by his subordinates. The eight immortals cross the sea and each show their magical powers to support themselves. Everyone can't get all their salary and silver.

If you can get half of your annual salary, you have to thank the superior for your kindness. There are many yamen servants who have part-time jobs. This is the biggest difficulty facing the Ministry of Justice today.

Yao Cuo is quite lucky. He has his own territory. After peeling off the land layer by layer, there is still a surplus in his hands. After every month, he has twelve taels of silver in his pocket. He is already very satisfied. Plus the dozen

When he was an official, he worked hand in hand, and his life was quite comfortable. Yao Cuo opened a teahouse in the front yard, and his subordinates reported here every day. The current establishment of 120 people, including Li Guolou who reported yesterday

, with forty-nine subordinates.

As for the murder of Wei Wenshao in the Wei Mansion Courtyard on Bolan Street, Yao Cuo received the news as soon as he got up, but he had to wait for the final result. He wanted to see how Lord Bao wanted to deal with Man Youyou of the Ax Gang? The interrogation of the case,

Master Wu would rush to do it, so he didn't need to worry about it. Wu Defu was his sworn brother, and the two of them wore a pair of crotchless pants. There were informants in the yamen and elite soldiers under his command. Yao Cuo, as usual, finished lunch

Drink a pot of tea to digest your stomach.

After noon, Yao Cuo's shrimp soldiers and crabs will have dispersed. In the Chunfeng Teahouse, only his follower Yao Yong is lying on a table and dozing off. Yao Yong is actually a waiter in the teahouse. He does not have to pay wages, and someone will do it for him.

Work.

Yao Cuo was a little angry. Golden Ear didn't come to report because the case happened in the Yamen today and he didn't come to report. This guy wanted to change the court to flatter Master Wu. There was nothing he could do about it. The newcomers were the only ones laughing when they were scouring the sand.

I don’t see the old man crying. Since Li Guolou has been favored by Mr. Bao, if he doesn’t open his mouth, Bao Yiyi will also drug him.

Don't be suspicious of people who employ people, and you don't need to be suspicious of people. As expected, the newcomer Li Guolou came to Dao Chunfeng Teahouse to report. Yao Cuo saw it and showed a happy smile on his face.

Ma Dequan called out: "Hello, big brother!" and added: "Dayong, bring a pot of green tea. No! Bring a pot of Biluochun, little plum treats."

This is the money for meeting members every day, and the price for a pot of tea is ten times that of outsiders. Each of his subordinates can find their own position. Ma Dequan found the highest-grade seat for Li Guolou, and he escaped today's members

money.

Li Guolou took off his hat, lowered his head and laughed: "Brother, the younger brother is here."

Yao Cuo said "hmm" and glanced at an empty seat next to him.

As soon as Li Guolou sat down, Yao Yong placed the teapot on the table and said, "Little plum, thirty cents."

Li Guolou didn't understand it all at once, thinking he heard it wrong, "Ah! How much?"

Ma Dequan interjected: "Xiao Lizi, I think you are quite rich. I can't lose you thirty cents, and I don't owe you any credit here." He added: "Brother, I have changed my mind. I will keep an eye on Xiao Lizi for you from now on. You

What do you think?"

Ma Dequan sold Li Guolou as soon as he entered the house, admitted his mistake to Yao Cuo first, and then tried his best to do his best for his elder brother Yao Cuo. To put it bluntly, he told his elder brother Yao Cuo that he wanted to restart his career as a police officer under Li Guolou.

Li Guolou did another stupid thing. He was thinking that since it was a share of the money, thirty cash per day would be nine hundred cash per month. He never thought that people would not come here every day.

Li Guolou didn't understand the rules, so he took out a one-tael silver note and said, "Brother, I'll pay for one month's tea first." Then he said, "Dayong, I'll reward you with the extra money."

Yao Yong left with a smile on his face. Yao Cuo suddenly had a better impression of Li Guolou. Li Hongzhang's people were rich, and he could rely on the Li family in the future. This was the largest tree in the Qing Empire, and it was also cute.

Future generations should not treat Li Guolou as a "dog". He is a friend and should be supported.
