Chapter 78 Why is it you again

Kang Ming smiled and said, "Okay! Guan Dutou is very pleased. If you have any difficulties, just say it directly! I will definitely find a way to support it."

"Then I would like to thank the county lieutenant. You are the old leader of the local soldiers. We can't help you. This is some of our needs. Please take a look at the county lieutenant." As he said that, Guan Wei took out a few pieces of paper and respectfully handed it to Kang Ming.

Kang Ming sneered in his heart: "Good boy, it's really what you did! Be careful that if you can do the first day of the lunar calendar, I can do the fifteenth day of the year. Let's take a look!"

Kang Ming took a few pieces of paper, but he became more and more frightened as he looked at it. This was not a request for support. The above list was the money Kang Li had plundered from local soldiers in recent years.

He quickly turned back; finally he could see Kang Li's signature. This was clearly a confession!

Kang Ming was furious and almost tore the confession to pieces, but then he thought that Kang Li was still in his hands? What's the use of tearing him?

"What do you want to do?" Kang Ming yelled in a low voice.

"What do you write after this? I want my brothers' salary and military expenses for the local soldiers this year; and I will pay them in full in the future, and it cannot be deducted! County lieutenant, this is just a drop in your corruption, and it is nothing at all? I also promise that as long as the money is in place, this thing will not appear in a second."

Kang Ming bit his teeth and knew that if this thing was really stabbed out by Yang Yanzhao, the Kang family would be in trouble, so in the end there was no way, so he gritted his teeth and agreed.

"Okay! Isn't it just nine months, plus military expenses, a total of 1,000 yuan I paid! Will I release the person immediately?"

Guan Wei smiled and said, "My County Guard, one thousand guan is the money for this confession. It is not impossible to release people. My local soldiers now don't even have armor and weapons. I need 120 long spears, 120 pairs of leather armor, 120 waist knives, 100 pairs of bows and arrows, and 100 pieces of arrows."

Kang Ming was furious and said, "Do you know what you are talking about? How many people are you doing in total? Why do you need so many equipment?"

"120 local soldiers! I plan to give each person a spear. I can't use cavalry to fight when defending the city, right? What if the enemy is close? Bows and arrows and spears are useless, and you can't fight with your hands! I need each person a waist knife.

There are also bows and arrows, which are most useful when defending the city. If you can do more, just have more!"

Kang Ming bit his cheek and said, "You also have some equipment in your hand. I will allocate the number for you and arrange for you to release it."

"Mr. County lieutenant, this thing is also a consumable and it will be broken in normal times. I always have to back up some, right? This quantity cannot be reduced. Otherwise, we will divide it into three times, September, October, and November.

"Okay! So you have arranged everything! Very good! Let's arrange for the release of people!"

Guan Wei smiled and said, "Please write a note, the county magistrate!" He said, pushing out the paper on the table.

Kang Ming snorted coldly, but now the initiative is in the hands of others, so he had no choice but to write an IOU as Guan Wei said.

Guan Wei looked at it seriously, took the IOU, and then shouted to the outside: "Heihu!"

"Come!" Heihu agreed loudly and ran in with big steps.

After training for so long, Heihu was covered in sweat. He stood here and was steaming outwards.

Kang Ming frowned. He felt a strong pressure on this guy. Why didn’t I know that there was such a big man in Yichuan County before, but Guan Wei got a flaw.

"Take a few people with you, and ask Kang Lu and the County Guard to take a trip, bring back the gifts of the County Guard, and go to see Chang Jin and ask him what happened? Did you catch the wrong person? If there is nothing wrong with the interrogation, please release the person quickly!"

"Yes!" Heihu agreed loudly, then clasped his fists at Kang Ming and said, "Mr. County lieutenant, let's ask!"

Kang Ming snorted coldly, turned his head and left. Guan Wei hurriedly saw him off from behind, sending them out of the local army camp.

"Brother, are you just letting them go?" Yang Yanzhao was the one who didn't rub the sand in his eyes, and he didn't agree with Guan Wei's treatment.

Guan Wei sighed and said, "I want to deal with these guys, but brother can see how the local soldiers are not covered in their clothes and don't even have decent equipment. Fighting is not waiting for anyone, so I can't let them use their flesh and blood to resist the enemy's sharp sabers.

This is the fastest way to arm them! Let them be arrogant for a while first! When the war is over, I will deal with them one by one."

Yang Yanzhao heard this and exhaled slightly, saying, "Okay! Brother, I have been in Yichuan County for several days and have learned a lot of things. It's time to leave, let's leave now!"

Guan Wei knew that this day would come sooner or later, so he sighed and said, "I have no reason to stop Brother Yang from responsibilities. Stay for another day today! Let's go back tonight, and I will hold a banquet to see my elder brother off, call my eighth sister and ninth sister, and express my gratitude to me."

"Or else, you won't be able to use me to train troops now. I'll go back first and clean up the gifts. You'll come back early tonight." Yang Yanzhao nodded slightly, agreeing.

"Okay! Brother Yang went to find Chang Jin and asked him to go there too. He also ordered Li Sheng to go to Zuixianlou to order a banquet, and let's go back and have a good drink."

"Okay! Leave this matter to me." Yang Yanzhao and Guan Wei said goodbye and rode away.

It was almost evening when Heihu and the others came back. This time it was a great harvest. Heihu and the others drove several big trucks to pull things back.

Kang Lule couldn't even close his mouth, and he was now impressed by Guan Wei.

"Head! All the things have been pulled back, and there are still a thousand stags, which is enough for us to use them for several months. There are also leather armor and winter clothes have been pulled back."

"Well! You can all go into the warehouse! Remember, don't waste it when you manage it well!"

"Yes! I must take him well!" Kang Lu agreed and quickly took someone to deposit these things into the treasury.

"Black Tiger." Guan Wei greeted him, and the Black Tiger hurriedly ran over.

"I'm going home today, so I'll leave it to you to guard it. We just came back from our things, and we'll send more people to take good care of them. No matter who is inside or outside, don't let them get close to them."

"Yes!" Heihu agreed loudly, then called his confidants Zhao Xin and Sun Xiu over and assigned them the task.

Seeing that the Heihu had made arrangements, Guan Wei told them again to be careful and fly on his horse and run to the city.

Although the local soldiers' camp was outside the city, it was not very far from the county town, only a few miles away, and it was almost a horse-drawn.

When Guan Wei came out, it was already nightfall. The city gate was about to close, and there were no pedestrians on the road. Guan Wei slapped his horse and saw the city gate that was about to be closed.

"Wow—" Guan Wei suddenly heard a series of soft sobs from the woods next to him. In other words, Guan Wei is relatively strong, and no one else can hear it.

Guan Wei rushed into the woods next to him with a roving horse. As soon as he entered the woods, he found a man hanging himself on the rope and kicked away the dead wood under his feet with force.

"Helping!" Guan Wei rushed over with a sudden urging war horse. Seeing that he was approaching from a distance, he pulled out his waist knife with a whistle, cut off the rope with a wave, and then reached out to hug the man.

The tentacles are soft, and a faint fragrance of powder lingers in their noses.

"So it's a woman." Guan Wei suddenly strangled the war horse, jumped off the horse, and put the woman on the ground and saw it. He was shocked.

"Is it you? Is this suicide fun?"

The woman was also dizzy. After being put down by someone, she looked at her familiar face and was stunned for a moment.

The person who wants to hang is Xu Rong, the woman rescued by Guan Wei and insulted by the woodcutter.

"What's wrong with you? Why did you commit suicide again?" Guan Wei asked in surprise.

Xu Rong heard the sound of a whimper and threw herself on the ground and started crying.

Guan Wei knew that she could not let her cry like this at this time, so he took the initiative to shout: "Stop crying! If you have anything to say to me, I am an official of the Song Dynasty, I will make the decision for you."

This really scared Xu Rong. She stopped sobbing and told the story intermittently.

Guan Wei quickly understood what was going on? It turned out that the incident of Xu Rong being insulted by others finally reached the ears of her husband Tian Guiting. Tian Guiting was furious and thought that his wife was insulted and that she was not worthy of being his wife anymore. After she came back, Erhu wrote a divorce letter without saying anything, which put Xu Rong away.

Xu Rong couldn't accept it for a while, and felt that she had no face to go home, so she decided to die.

Guan Wei frowned and snorted coldly: "This bastard, is it worth it for you to die for him? Is he a businessman? What kind of business is it?"

"Grain. His family has a lot of land in the countryside, so he went to the city to do grain business."

"Doing a grain business?" Guan Wei snorted coldly, "Are you willing to seek death so poorly and let them spill all the dirty water on you? Do you want him to beg you to go back?"

"Ah!" Li Rong was stunned when she heard this, and didn't know what he meant for a moment.

Seeing that she had no desire to die for a while, Guan Wei finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I know the chief clerk Chang Zheng. He has a high reputation among the merchants in Yichuan County. How about I ask him to mediate for you?"

Of course, Xu Rong had heard of this. In the mouth of her husband, the chief clerk was an amazing big shot. If this big shot could help her mediate, it would be able to change her mind.

"Thank you, the great official. The great official will be kind to help you. Xu Rong will be rewarded in the next life."
