Han Si's family was poor since he was a child. He went to the city with his uncle at a very young age to make a living. He was really a county government official, and the clerks and officials at the government office and road department watched him grow up. He was very familiar with the neighbors, and the time away from home did not count.

long, just mention them all

Everyone knows it. Unlike Duan Dazhang, who was born into a wealthy family, had little contact with traffickers and lackeys, and served as an official for more than ten or even decades, it seems that everyone knows it, but in fact few people have seen it, let alone

What friendship.

Because of this, the news that Han Si was about to come back to organize team training soon spread. In addition, some local gentry led by Cui Huanzhang and Yang Liqing added fuel to the fire. All kinds of rumors were flying all over the sky, and the words were said with nose and eyes, causing chaos in the streets and alleys.

There was a huge uproar and everyone knew about it.

The more Duan Jiqing thought about it, the more something was wrong, so he simply closed the door and thanked guests on the pretext that the Han family was in mourning.

When other people come to visit or pay New Year greetings, they will always be turned away. However, when people like the manager of the military department of the Taoist Department, Qin Dazhuang, the head of the Fu Yamen Kuaiban, He Yong, the Qianqian general manager of Chongqing Town Zuoying, and others come to pay New Year greetings, not only will they not be turned away, but they will also be turned away.

Eat and drink.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Wang Zaishan, who had just resigned from the county government a year ago, started talking about things outside.

"Cui Huanzhang and Yang Liqing seem to be determined to get involved in the Lijin Bureau. They are jumping up and down these days and are very busy. Even Mr. Gong seems to have been persuaded by them. He actually went with them the day before yesterday.

Pay a courtesy visit to Futai and the county magistrate

, discussed with the Futai and the county magistrate how to welcome Zhixing. He said that Zhixing did not return to his hometown of Dingyou alone, but also brought ten civil and military officials with him. Where would the accompanying civil and military officials stay? We must not be unprepared for these things.

"

"What else did they do?" Duan Jiqing asked subconsciously.

"You can't believe it if you tell me, but they also summoned the county's scholars and supervisors to Wangjiang Tower to discuss how to help Zhixing organize team training over drinks!"

"Help Zhixing organize team training?" Zhou Huipian snorted coldly, put down his glass and said, "Everyone knows Sima Zhao's intentions. What exactly do they want to do and what are their wishful thinking? I really think the county magistrate, Futai and

Daotai doesn’t know!”

"Duan Jingcheng, not to mention those scholars who are jealous of the Lijin Bureau and the Baojia Bureau, even the porters in the Sichuan Gang are getting more and more uneasy." Guan Bantou couldn't help but say.

Duan Jiqing asked dumbfounded: "What are those porters doing to join in the fun?"

Guan Bantou said helplessly: "The Baojia Bureau recruits either porters from the Tea Gang or brave and fierce men from Chaling. Otherwise, they would not be called Cha Yong. The reason why Jiang ran away six years ago is not

I'm just worried that the Wu brothers will come back for revenge if they become Shangguan. I'm also worried about those Cha Yong. Jiang

The Sichuan Gang has been bullied by the Tea Gang since they ran away. The porters in the Sichuan Gang heard that Si Wazi was coming back, and Datou might come back with him. They felt that Si Wazi and Datou would definitely support them, so they became bolder. Starting from the twelfth lunar month,

Twenty-seven has had four fights with the tea gang so far!"

"Did anyone get killed?"

"Although no one was killed, there were a lot of injuries."

"Which side hurts more?"

"Most of the tea gang porters have gone back to their hometowns to celebrate the New Year. There are more people from the Sichuan gang than there are tea gangs, so the Sichuan gang won all these fights. The one the day before yesterday even chased dozens of tea gang porters all the way to the Baojia Bureau.

At the door, the plaque of the Baojia Bureau was smashed."

Duan Jiqing did not expect that the porters of the Sichuan Gang would be so lawless. He stared at the head of the Guan team and asked, "Have you alerted the county magistrate?"

"Hundreds of people fought in the street, and dozens of them were injured. How could the county magistrate know about such a big thing? Fortunately, the Huguang passenger chief suppressed the matter in time, and none of the porters who were beaten went to the Yamen to report to the officials. However, he also showed ruthlessness

If the Sichuan Gang dares to pick quarrels and cause trouble again, the Baojia Bureau will not be polite to them."

"I asked why Wang Zonghai kept coming to see me these past two days and invited me to have a drink at the club. It turned out to be because of this!"

"Duan Jingcheng, who is Wang Zonghai?" He Jiangong's uncle, He Yong, the general manager of Chongqing Town Zuoyingqian, asked curiously.

"The new guest director of the Huguang Guild Hall is different from other guest directors. He has been a screen friend of Mr. Duan for five years, and he returned to Ba County with Mr. Duan. Those Huguang businessmen saw that he had been a screen friend of Mr. Duan, and they followed him

Master Cao was able to speak well again, so he elected him as the new guest chief."

"He is also from Hubei?"

"Of course I'm from Hubei. How could I be the guest manager of the Huguang Guild Hall if I weren't from Hubei?"

He Yong couldn't help but ask: "So he is not considered an outsider, Duan Jingcheng, the Sichuan gang has caused such trouble, what do you think we should do about this matter?"

Duan Jiqing pondered for a moment and sneered: "I, Duan Jiqing, am not the leader of the Sichuan Gang, so what does this have to do with me, Duan Jiqing? I'm sure someone is secretly fueling the Sichuan Gang's troubles, and we can't be fooled!"

"It must be those scholars who are fanning the flames."

"Ignore them, let them make trouble." Duan Jiqing thought for a while and then asked: "What other news is there?"

"If you want to talk about news, there is too much news."

Wang Zaishan took over the conversation, looked at everyone with a smile and said: "Didn't the earliest inspection of Zhixing be donated with money? In addition, my youngest and Changchun not only donated their birthplaces but also filled in the gaps. As long as they have a few

Everyone who had spare money looked jealous and thought of donating to the donation supervisor.

There were even more people who wanted to curry favor with Zhixing. Yang Laizi from the Eighteenth Ladder told people when he saw Zhixing that when he was a child, he not only had no food to eat, but also no clothes to wear. One winter, he fainted from the cold in front of his house, and he saved him;

Li Mazi from Tongjie said that Zhixing and he were sworn brothers, and even a bitch named Taohong from Cuixianglou swore that Zhixing was her old sweetheart, and she helped pay for Zhixing's confession in Beijing.

.”

"It's so shameless. I know best what kind of person Zhixing is. How could it have anything to do with her!" Zhou Songbing couldn't help laughing and scolding.

"As far as I know, that little bitch named Taohong was sold to Cuixiang Building the year before last. How could she recognize Zhixing? She just wants to sensationalize. Don't be angry. Even though what she said is all lies, I believe it.

There are quite a few people there, and I heard her business is doing very well these days."

He Yong had just received a letter from his nephew He Jiangong last month. He knew that Han Xiufeng had helped him introduce his nephew to Mr. Yan, the deputy envoy of the General Affairs Department, and Mr. Yan had helped recommend He Jiangong to become the general manager of Xuanhua Town Zhongying.

, thanked Han Xiufeng from the bottom of his heart for helping him, and shouted: "That's ridiculous, she's bullying no one in the Han family. Duan Jingcheng, leave this matter to me. I'll call a few brothers to deal with it when I get back."

Cuixiang Tower was smashed!"

"Forget it, you're celebrating the New Year, why bother with a bitch who sells meat." Duan Jiqing asked him to sit down and said with a smile: "It's like people are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. Those people outside can just let it go if they want to make trouble.

They are making trouble, and we will remain unchanged in response to all changes. We will wait until Zhixing comes back."
