There is a large courtyard in Jimo County, located in the southeast corner of the county. From the outside, this courtyard seems to be no different from the courtyards of other official families. The only difference lies in the inside of the yard. The backyards of other official families will be filled with flowers and plants, and pavilions will be built.

.And the back garden of this courtyard is just a flat martial arts arena. The sword and gun racks around the venue are filled with all kinds of weapons. There are also some stone locks and other body-building things next to it. You can see it from above.

It turns out that this is the home of a military commander.

The person living in this small courtyard is Yang Jingfa, a member of the Qianhu family in Aoshanwei. When he got up in the morning, Yang Jingfa had already done a set of boxing on the playground in the courtyard and played with stone locks for a while. At this time, he was receiving someone.

Yang Jingfa is young and looks to be in his 30s. He has a short, third-rate beard. His face is fair and he does not look like a military general. Only when you see his hands, you will think they are the hands of a military general. His body is thin.

He has a slightly bow-legged look, but you can't see it when he sits down.

But the person he faced was not a good-looking person. He was thin and skinny, with sinister eyebrows and a rat's beard. He wore a green melon cap and short clothes. At first glance, he looked like a street gangster.

.And in fact he is indeed a gangster from Jinan.

This man's name is Yang Jinglin, and he was originally a relative of Yang Qianhu in the fifth server. But his family fell into decline early, and he didn't live up to expectations. He was born with poor health. He couldn't practice the martial arts inherited from his family. He could only hang out in the street all day long, doing

Some sneaky things. This time he came to Jimo not to do any good, but to drive a wedge between Yang Qianhu and Liu Pei under the instructions of Hu Lin.

Hu Linming couldn't defeat Liu Pei on the surface, so he thought of the official relationship. After all, Liu Pei's identity still belonged to the military household, and he was under the command of Yang Qianhu. So the matter fell to this person who was related to Yang Qianhu.

On the little gangster who has a relationship.

"Are you telling the truth? Are you really that rich?" Yang Qianhu asked in surprise.

"Then can I still lie to you?" Yang Jinglin tried his best to put on an honest expression and said: "Your ninth brother and I are considered a well-known figure in Jinan. How can we not find out this bit of information? That surname is Liu.

There are more than a dozen trucks delivering goods to the city! Although I don’t know the details, I thought that since I have delivered goods several times, the advantage of having 20,000 taels of silver in his hands must be

some!"

This Yang Jinglin thought he had won an important task, but he did not expect that he was not trusted by Hu Lin at all. Hu Lin really knew how much benefit Liu Pei had received from Shopkeeper Hua! But he did not dare to say anything for fear that Yang Jinglin would spread the news and cause trouble.

Liu Pei was unhappy, which led Liu Pei to kill him. So he just made up a random number and told Yang Jinglin. But even so, more than 20,000 taels of silver was enough to surprise Yang Qianhu.

Yang Qianhu is what Uncle Qi calls a more conscientious Qianhu. Compared with other guards officers, Yang Jingfa is really conscientious! The other guards officers are eager to get every ounce of wealth and water from the families of their subordinates.

They squeezed them all out. All the lands in the guard posts that could be assigned to their own names were all assigned to their own names. As for the life and death of the military households, who cared about it? Yang Qianhu at least left a way for the military households under his command to survive.

However, even if he was a more conscientious officer, he could not resist the temptation of 20,000 taels of silver. He had been tempted by Yang Jinglin's persuasion. Yang Jingfa thought for a long time and asked, "Are you sure you have 20,000 taels?"

Yang Jinglin swore and said: "My dear brother! Just believe me! If I tell lies, I will be struck by lightning and I will die!"

Yang Jingfa then asked: "Then after getting all the money, did he recruit some servants to help him?"

"Take it! There are more than 100 people!" Yang Jinglin said with wide eyes: "But what if he takes in the servants? They are just a bunch of idiots! Brother, you are afraid that you can't control the dozen servants in your house.

A bunch of idiots?"

Yang Jingfa is quite confident about this. He has a total of twelve servants under him. Each servant is a brave person with strong body and strong martial arts! Yang Jingfa did not treat these servants badly. He gave each servant a match in his family.

30 acres of land, and salary was also distributed. Therefore, these twelve servants were loyal to him. Moreover, the servants were not engaged in production. They spent the whole day practicing martial arts, exercising their bodies, and practicing diligently, so they still had fighting ability.

But what I don’t know is that Hu Lin didn’t tell the truth! Hu Lin was also afraid that Yang Jingfa would retreat, so he didn’t tell Yang Jinglin at all about Liu Pei’s defeat of the gang of salt lords outside the evil officers. And the escaped thugs usually

They have high self-esteem and look down on those street gangsters and idlers who don't play together, so the news of their defeat spread among the evil gangsters in the circle of salt lords.

Not many people in other places know about it.

When Yang Jingfa heard Yang Jinglin mention his servants, he looked a little arrogant. He said: "You still have some knowledge! My twelve servants can be justified even in front of the commander!"

"That's it, that's it!" Yang Jinglin nodded repeatedly and said: "When the time comes, you can line up these twelve servants in a row and poke them there, and the boy named Liu will kneel down!"

Yang Jingfa twirled his beard and said: "That's not the case. He can make a fortune because of his ability. But he should be more filial to me. Who said he is my subordinate? But I will never get things done right.

Yes, it will still leave him some capital."

Yang Jinglin took a few steps forward and said flatteringly: "Brother, look at this little brother..."

Yang Jingfa took out a small ingot from his arms, threw it over and said: "I'll give you five taels of silver first. You can spend the money first. After a while, I will go to Fushan Village. I will definitely benefit from you by then."

of."

Yang Jinglin got the benefit and left with a lot of thanks. Seeing Yang Jinglin go out, Yang Jingfa snorted contemptuously. At this time, the man who had been standing still behind him said: "What this person said is not entirely true. I'm afraid

There are so many lies.”

Yang Jingfa twirled his beard and said: "How could I believe his words! But I did hear a piece of news a while ago. Liu Pei bought all the wasteland in Fushan Village and several surrounding villages! This is a lot of money!

At least it’s seven or eight thousand taels!”

The man frowned and said, "This is indeed a large amount of money. It seems that what Yang Jinglin said is not entirely false."

Yang Jingfa smiled and said, "He doesn't dare to tell lies in front of me." After saying that, he sighed and continued: "The recent years have been bad, and the harvests in the fields have been small. I can't bear to exploit him."

Those military households, if they can get a few thousand taels of silver from him this time, life will be much easier."

The man said softly: "Do you want me to check first?"

Yang Jingfa shook his head and said: "No need. What kind of disturbance can an overseas survivor of the former Song Dynasty stir up? When the few people who went out to do things come back in a few days, I will take them to Fushan Village and get the things done."
