"Master Supervisor, it's them..." A Dingmin army was not convinced, and wanted to sue Zhou Zonghan.
Zhou Zonghan stared, "Shut up and apologize to them."
Ding Min's army stopped talking, and Zhou Zonghan continued to order: "Apologize, or go back to the military regulations to deal with it."
A few Dingmin soldiers had no choice but to bow their heads and admit their mistakes, while Zhennan Wang's men snorted coldly, "What?" After saying that, they left without looking back.
Of course, they didn't keep any money. Zhou Zonghan walked up to the boss and said, "Boss, we will pay for the damaged things. You should keep these ingots first. If they are not enough, go to the Dingmin army camp to get them."
The hotel owner took the money with a smile, and replied: "Oh, it's okay, it's okay, you have worked hard every day training for the country, this is enough."
"Then thank you boss."
Zhou Zonghan led the Dingmin army away, Zhou Xu tidied up his crooked face a little, and went out the door holding hands with the crown prince. After seeing clearly the direction Zhou Zonghan left, the two looked at each other and nodded at the same time, both in their hearts. care about.
Asked for two rooms with the prince, asked Ye Qi to look around, and after making sure no one was bugging, Zhou Xu asked the prince, "Where do you want to start?"
"Start with the relationship between King Zhennan and Dingmin Jun. What about you, do you think it's feasible?"
After taking off his disguised face, Zhou Xu returned to the man who looked a little skinny but extremely coquettish.
"I think so."
Afterwards, the two talked carefully about how to go, especially in the relationship between King Zhennan and Dingmin Army, where should we break through this point.
In the end, the two decided to understand the situation first, after all, they just found a direction now, but they didn't have a good grasp of the specific relationship between the two parties.
On the second day, Zhou Xu, the prince, and Ye Qi pretended to be vegetable sellers, and followed the inquiring news to the Dingmin army's military camp reserve area.
This area is very easy to sneak into, and because there are no wars all year round, only military training, so the soldiers are not very vigilant.
One person pulled a row of carts, and the three went in three directions.
Not long after walking, Zhou Xu met a soldier.
"Hey, hey, that food delivery guy, where is he going?"
The peddler of Zhou Xu's disguise was hunched over with scars all over his face. He looked pitiful and terrifying. His voice was hoarse, and even the tone of his speech was not even half the same as the original Zhou Xu.
"My lord, I'm delivering food. It's my first time here. I don't know which way to go. If you know, please show me the way. My legs and feet are not very good. It's good to walk less." .”
"Oh, let me just say that you are a food delivery person, how do you go to the residence of our general. Come here, I will show you, go this way, you will see a big tent in front of you, turn right at the big tent, That's it."
Zhou Xu looked at the line of defense pointed by the soldiers, and seemed to be struggling a bit. Finally, he shook his head and said, "My lord, my eyesight is bad and I can't see clearly. If you have time, can you show me the way? I'm afraid I will If I go wrong again, maybe I bump into some adult, what should I do. It’s the first time I come here, and no one told me."
"Okay, I'll take you there."
"Thank you, my lord." Zhou Xu pulled the wooden cart and walked forward with the soldiers. As he walked, Zhou Xu asked, "My lord, how many people are there here? If there are more people, next time we will deliver more food .”
"Oh, we have nearly 20,000 soldiers here, and your cartload of food must be a fraction."
"That's right, it must be a small change. We grew it at home. Well, it's pretty good. We can make more varieties in the future and sell them to you when the time comes, and we can save a little more money."
"Well, you plant it, our general never treats farmers badly."
"Yes, yes, he is really a good person. By the way, do you want food? Our family still has some food that we want to sell."
"You really asked the right person. Not only do we want it, but we also buy as much as we want, and the price is very reasonable. I heard from our general that there may be a war in a while, so as long as we can stock up a little more food and grass .”
"Really, that's great, so that I can make the neighbors sell their food, that's great."
"Yes, say hello when you get back, and sell us a piece."
"Then where is your granary? How do we find it? Oh, the villain is a rough man, he doesn't know anything, don't worry, my lord."
"No hurry, no hurry, the granary is over there, see, but you can't go there, even if you sell grain, you have to find our purchase point in southern Fujian, you can't just come to our granary."
"Hahaha, yes, yes, the villain is stupid. My lord, you are so enthusiastic, and you will definitely become a big shot in the future."
"Thank you for your good words. We're here, that's over there, go ahead, just ask Manager Song."
"Okay, okay, my lord, go slowly."
When Song Guanshi was found, Ye Qi had already been there, but the crown prince hadn't.
Song Guanshi was thin and shriveled, his whole face seemed to have only a rough layer of skin left, but even though he was so thin, he seemed to be very energetic, and his voice was very thick, which was completely different from his shriveled body.
"Where is it? Why don't I remember that it said there are still dishes."
Zhou Xu bent over and said, "My lord, we don't know what's going on. The first time we met a customer who bought us a piece of silver for the first time, he didn't say anything after the purchase. Just say send it here, it’s not like I almost went to the wrong place just now.”
"Oh, I paid for it. Now that I've paid for it, let's unload it. Oh, this dish is really fresh. I grew it myself, didn't I sell it?"
"It's not sold, it's grown by myself, it's fresh."
At this time the crown prince also came, and he also called a haha, just like that, no one doubted at all, and no one in the back-up office asked too much, anyway, as long as they don't let them pay, they can't accept anything error.
After the food was delivered, the three of them returned to their residences and combined the information they had inquired, and found that this general of the Dingnan Army treated his subordinates very loosely, and he treated the common people well. Totally bad guy.
"In addition, I also detected a little bit." The prince said.
"What?"
"This general is a lover. The reason why he has such a tense relationship with King Zhennan is because he and King Zhennan's son have a crush on the same singer."
"Oh?" Zhou Xu became interested.
"The singer's name is Ruan Hua. It is said that she is as beautiful as a flower. She only comes out to sing four days a month, the first day, the seventh day, the thirteenth day, and the 22nd day. During these four days, the general and the prince of Zhennan will definitely go. The two were fighting for her, their faces were red and their ears were red, and they often fought."
"Since that's the case, it's easy to say, there will always be one of the two who will be angry and become a beauty, and then we will take advantage of the fisherman's advantage." Zhou Xu said.
"Well, I think so too, but Ruan Hua may not be easy to talk to."
"Leave it to me." Zhou Xu smiled with confidence.
After that day, it happened to be the seventh day of the lunar new year, Zhou Xu disguised himself as a handsome young man, took a few ingots of silver and a few bank notes and went to Yihonglou where Ruan Hua was.
There is a painting boat in Yihong Building, but the rich son can naturally pay to take his beloved singer out for fun, but if several sons are willing to pay at the same time, it is the singer who chooses her own.
At this moment, Ruan Hua was standing on the boat in a pink dress, and beside the boat, General Dingmin and Prince Zhennan were staring at each other.
Zhou Xu held his forehead with one hand, no wonder Ruan Hua couldn't choose, one was short and fat like a pumpkin, the other was as tall as a bamboo pole, the short and fat one had a pockmarked face, and the thin and tall one had a mottled face. The word "crooked melon split jujube".
Because they were there, no one else who wanted to order Ruan Hua dared to go there. As a result, Ruan Hua stood on the boat with a depressed face, as if she was suffering from not knowing which one to choose.
Zhou Xu walked over leisurely, and his casual look seemed even more noble.
The nanny in a bright red peony skirt raised her hand to stop Zhou Xu: "Hey, young master, that's Ruan Hua, our number one girl in Yihonglou. If you go there, take out two hundred taels first, and tell young master first." , even if Miss Ruan Hua doesn't want to play with you in the end, the two hundred taels will not be refunded. Master, have you thought about it?"
Smiling slightly, Zhou Xu opened a folding fan, then took out two silver notes and handed them out: "The bank notes of the Zhou Family Bank can be exchanged at any time, is that okay?"
Nanny's chubby face burst into a smile, she grabbed Zhou Xu's banknote and gave way: "Oh, my lord, please hurry up, our girl Ruan Hua knows everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, I hope you will be selected."
Putting away the folding fan, Zhou Xu used the folding fan to push away the arm that Mammy was blocking just now, and walked in front of General Hu Yue and the eldest son Qin Zhong.
As soon as Hu Yue and Qin Zhong saw Zhou Xu, their faces changed instantly, because his every move was full of grace, every frown and smile was full of demeanor, how could they compare with Zhou Xu, so the two instantly became an alliance, but No matter how they were, Ruan Hua was already attracted by Zhou Xu.
Ruan Hua's servant girl said on the boat, "Young master in blue, Miss Ruan Hua invites you to board the boat and have a talk."
Zhou Xu cupped his hands and said to the remaining two: "You two young masters, let me accept it, Miss Ruan Hua, let me accompany you today."
After finishing speaking, Zhou Xu leisurely walked onto the boat, and the other two, like clowns, watched the boat slowly go away.
Through the gauze curtain, Ruan Hua asked, "What song do you want to hear, my lord?"
The voice is gentle and moving, and even through the gauze curtain, one can tell that the woman sitting behind the Yaoqin must have a stunning beauty.
But Zhou Xu completely ignored this, and directly opened the gauze curtain and went in. The woman was a little surprised and was about to say something, but Zhou Xu quickly put a pill into her mouth.
"Wu Du Pill, skin ulceration in three days, deafness and blindness in five days, festering of hands and feet in seven days, and death of internal organs failure in ten days."
Her hands and feet were cold, and that skin ulcer alone had caused Ruan Hua to collapse. She looked at Zhou Xu in horror: "You... you... who are you?"
"Give you two choices, listen to me, or die."
