Chapter 29 Who to Help
Once you have thought it through, you have something to do.
Han Xiufeng did not dare to waste a moment, so he ran into the execution room to borrow paper and pen and wrote a note. When the ink was dry, he went to find a boy he knew well in the county government office and asked him to go to the second hall to buy tea for the old man.
Taking the opportunity, he secretly slipped the note to Mr. Gu. It wasn't until the boy came out of the second hall and nodded that he relaxed.
All I could do next was wait. Unexpectedly, I had to wait for most of the day.
The cloud board was struck seven times and the bamboo bang was struck once. This was the night bang, which was a signal that the county government was about to close. After waiting for a while, the cloud board and the bamboo bang were struck again, five times and two times respectively.
Another long follower of the master came to the sixth room and, as usual, took the documents written by each room Teng today and took them back to the signed room.
The eldest master has never sent anyone to send a message, stating that there will be no meeting in the evening, but Mr. Gu and the guest manager of the Huguang Guild Hall are still in the second hall and have not come out. It can be seen that they still want to talk, and they don’t know what the outcome of the meeting will be.
There was no point in being anxious, as the door was about to close, Han Xiufeng could only walk out with the clerks in the sixth room.
Pan Er, who had just walked around the Yimen and was stopped by the door when he came out in the morning and could not go in again, came up to him and said, "Fourth brother, why did you come out now? How are things going?"
"This is not the place to talk. Let's go ahead and talk."
"Okay, there happens to be a restaurant ahead. Master Ba and the husband from Chaotianmen are also there, waiting for you."
"Walk!"
Han Xiufeng followed Pan Er to Sifang Street and walked into a restaurant. As expected, Ba Ye, Jiang Liu and other Sichuan gang leaders were waiting. As soon as they saw him, they stood up to greet him.
"We are all on our own, don't be so polite." Han Xiufeng asked everyone to sit down, then turned around and said, "Third Aunt, bring me a bowl of dandan noodles."
"I know, I'll be fine soon."
"Fourth brother, what did the county magistrate say?" Jiang Liu asked eagerly.
He couldn't explain it to them, so Han Xiufeng could only comfort him. While wiping the table, he pretended to be relaxed and said: "The master hasn't spoken yet, but things may have turned around depending on the situation. It's useless for you to be anxious. All you can do now is wait, wait.
Mr. Gu will know what's going on when he comes out of the Yamen."
"Master Gu hasn't come out yet. Master Gu helped Datou to have sex with the county magistrate?" Master Ba asked subconsciously.
"So you have chosen the right person."
"Mr. Gu is really kind-hearted, no wonder he is so rich!"
"Yes, kind people will always be rewarded." Han Xiufeng smiled and continued: "Brother Six, ask someone to go to the yamen gate and keep an eye on him, otherwise we won't even know Mr. Gu comes out."
"No need to call anyone, I'll just go."
"Wait a minute," Han Xiufeng looked at the sky outside and explained, "It's so late, why don't you ask Mr. Gu to go back later? Hurry up and hire a sedan and ask the porter to wait at the yamen gate."
"Okay, okay, I'll go right away." Jiang Liu ran to the door, then turned around and said, "Shanzi, I'll go to the sedan chair, and you can go to the yamen gate and keep an eye on me."
…
Two husbands have left, and there are four more.
Han Xiufeng didn't eat lunch and was so hungry that he picked up his chopsticks to eat the dandan noodles as soon as they were served. He didn't look up until he finished the last sip of soup and said, "Eighth master, I asked someone to bring Guokui into the class room. The eldest master's eldest brother is
With Zhang Biao watching from outside, I couldn't get in, so I didn't see Big Head."
"Just bring it in. By the way, do you know if he has suffered any hardship?"
"Don't worry, boss. Since I haven't tried him, I won't torture him."
"Where are the others?"
"Similarly, everyone is locked up in the prison cell, including those turtle boys from the tea gang."
The more Ba Ye thought about it, the more confused he became. He couldn't help but ask: "What do you mean by just taking people but not promoting them to the court?"
Han Xiufeng wiped the corners of his mouth and said with a smile, "This is a good thing."
Ba Ye couldn't figure out what was so good about this. Just as he opened his mouth to say something, a porter hurried in, held the table and said: "Ba Ye, second brother, all those idiots from the tea gang are diagonally opposite."
The teahouse!”
"How many are here?" the short husband suddenly stood up and asked.
"More than a dozen, all husbands."
"No one else?"
"I didn't see it, why don't I go and have a look."
"Don't go," Han Xiufeng grabbed the porter who reported the news, raised his head and said, "If you guessed correctly, they are also here to wait for news, but we are waiting for Mr. Gu, and they are waiting for the guest manager of Huguang Guild Hall.
Besides, what kind of place is this? This is the yamen gate. Even if they have the courage, they wouldn’t dare to cause trouble here.”
"Fourth brother, it's not like you don't know that they won't let it go if someone dies."
"Second brother, what do you want?"
"Call people, call more people!"
Han Xiufeng was angry and immediately straightened his face: "If you call them, they won't shout. Call them all over here. Even if you don't take action, the county magistrate will think you are going to cause trouble! Don't even look at where this place is. There are government officials in front of you."
, walk a few steps and you’ll find the government office and the Taoist Department. It’s already troublesome enough if someone loses his life. If he makes more trouble, he’ll be sent to the Palace of Hell!”
Although the eighth master has never seen the world, he has lived long enough to weigh the importance and said hurriedly: "Er Xi, sit down and listen to the fourth child, don't be confused."
"Master Ba, I'm worried..."
"I already said this is the yamen gate, what's there to worry about?"
The sedan dealer relied on the business of several nearby yamen, so it was not far away. Just as he was talking, Jiang Liu ran back panting, and the hired porters also arrived carrying the sedan.
There were many people in the restaurant, so Han Xiufeng simply went outside to wait. Ba Ye, Jiang Liu and other husbands from the Sichuan Gang followed them out, but as soon as they went out, they met a group of husbands from the Tea Gang.
The enemies were extremely jealous when they met, but since they were at the yamen gate, the two groups were restrained and no one dared to act rashly.
A leader of the Tea Gang recognized Han Xiufeng and shouted from a distance: "Hey, isn't this Fourth Brother? How come you got together with the Sichuan Gang and no longer work in the Yamen?"
Han Xiufeng thought why he was so unlucky, so he could only bite the bullet and walked up and said with a smile: "Who did I think it was? It turns out to be Uncle Zhu. You are also here because of what happened yesterday?"
"Why else?"
"You said, why are you doing this? You are all struggling for a living in the docks and alleys, looking up and not looking down. It's great to be friendly and make money, so why are you always fighting and killing? Look, it's actually like this, dead and injured.
's injury."
"It's because they don't follow the rules!"
"Uncle Zhu, everyone is dead and injured, so what's the use of talking about it now? Besides, if a slap can't make a difference, you two gangs can't talk about each other."
The leader of the tea gang couldn't talk to Han Xiufeng, so he simply asked: "Han Si, I have watched you grow up, and our tea gang usually treats you well. I haven't moved around much in the past two years, and your uncle is at the county government office."
We're going to treat your uncle to a drink later. Tell me something sweet, are you helping us or them in this matter?"
The tea gang's manpower was in hiding, and the tea gang's porters were just looking for a living in Ba County. Once they committed a crime, they would run away and run back to their hometown to hide. Even if the Yamen asked, they might not be found. Han Xiufeng did not dare and did not want to offend them easily, so he immediately
He said with a smile: "Uncle Zhu, you just said that you watched me grow up. You know best how many pounds my Han Si weighs. Don't say that I am just helping out in the household. Even if I am the manager of the household, you two can't help me."
