At the east city gate of Lingqiu, several soldiers from the city gate sat lazily in the shade of the city gate hole, opened their clothes and fanned themselves with their hands.

The chief official sat on a bench, with a square table in front of him, with teapots and tea bowls on it, and a palm-leaf fan was swaying his hand, and he drank a sip of the tea in the tea bowl from time to time.

"It's so hot, it won't rain any more." The chief official looked up at the sky.

A soldier next to him said weakly: "If it continues so hot, the seedlings in the field will die."

A soldier responded: "I heard that there are several large flood trucks in Xujiazhuang to collect water. This year, grain production has been reduced in other places. However, the grain in Xujiazhuang has not only not reduced production, but is better than the harvest in previous years."

"Eat salty radish and worry about it." said the chief bannerman, "Your family's land is not in Xujiazhuang, why are you worried about that? You have all stood up. If you let the Lord Qianhu see your current virtue, be careful to hit your board."

The soldiers stood up lazily, leaning listlessly in the city gate with a spear in their hands.

Step! Step! Step...

The sound of horse hooves came from far and near, and the chief flag officer turned his head and looked over.

The dust is flying in the distance, first there is a fast horse, followed by a team of dozens of people.

Soon, the team from afar came to the city gate, and the person immediately bowed and said, "Mr. Jun, I hope it will be convenient. This is a little bit of silver and Jun.

After saying that, the man took out two pieces of silver from his arms and threw it at the chief banner officer.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." The chief official put away the silver and said with a smile on his face. "Even if you enter the city, try to cover up the bird guns in your hands. The people in the city are too talkative, and it's not good to hear the garrison."

"Thank you, Junjun." Zhao Wu clasped his fists and said, "Go!"

He knocked his feet into the city with his horse's belly.

The more than 30-person musket team that accompanied him stood in two rows and followed behind and entered the city together.

When the others walked away, a soldier came to the chief flag officer and whispered: "Damn it, this group of people with the tiger flag are not hot either. On the hot day, everyone is wearing cotton armor."

"Okay, worry about the other people's business!" The chief bannerman scolded.

He looked into the distance of the man with the tiger flag and murmured to himself: "It's so fucking trouble. I don't know who has offended these gods of killing."

The people who came to Cai Casino had no idea that a team of people had touched them.

"Betting, betting...buy, betting, buy, leave, buy."

"Big! Big! Big! Big!"

"Open, leopard, the dealer takes it all."

In a room next to the gambling house, Xiaoqi stood inside, and the Fourth Master sat opposite him.

Xiaoqi said respectfully: "Fourth Master, I have inquired. In addition to Han Guangsan from Hanjiazhuang, several other families have received pensions from the tiger flag. If we get these pensions, there will be at least one or two hundred taels."

The Fourth Master put down the teacup, rubbed his chin, and said, "You do this, don't leave your tail. Zhang Laifu's method is good. As long as these families write the IOU, you won't be afraid that you won't be able to squeeze out the money in the end."

"I understand, little one." Xiao Qi replied.

At this moment, I heard a bang, and there seemed to be a sound of bird guns in the gambling house. Then there were chairs and tables that were flipped and gamblers screaming.

The Fourth Master's face darkened, "Xiaoqi, take people out to see who is so bold to make trouble in our Caicai Gambling House. He caught someone and chopped off his hands and threw them on the street."

From time to time, there will be gamblers who lose money to the point of losing everything to the gambling house, and he is not too worried.

"You guys, come with me." Xiao Qi waved to the men in the room.

As soon as he left the room, he cursed: "Who is the fuck..."

Halfway through his words, his throat seemed to be pinched, and the words behind him choked back.

In the gambling house, there were more than a dozen big men wearing swords on their waists and holding bird guns in their hands.

As soon as he left the door, he was pushed against his forehead by a bird gun.

"Hero, please say something, be careful that this thing goes wrong!" Xiao Qi raised his hands, level with his shoulders, and his heart was beating pounding.

"Come here, go and squat over there!" The musketman glanced at the gambling house.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say."

Xiaoqi took the big men around him to the gambling house honestly and squatted with the gamblers inside.

The musketeer on the side lifted the curtain of the room where Xiaoqi came out, and saw the Fourth Master inside. He raised the gun and scolded, "Put down the knife, hold his head and walk out."

After hearing Xiaoqi's voice, the Fourth Master knew that it was not good. Unfortunately, as soon as he picked up the knife and was about to break out, he was pointed at by a bird gun that reached into the room.

The fuse on the bird gun has been lit and can be fired at any time.

There was only a few steps away from the two sides. The Fourth Master knew that no matter how fast he was, he could not be faster than the other party's speed of shooting bird guns.

There was no choice but to throw the knife in his hand and walk out of the room with his head in his hands.

There were two floors of Laicai Gambling House. The musketeers drove out all the people in several rooms and drove them to the lobby on the first floor.

"Guard Zhao, everyone who comes to the Casino Gambling House is here." The captain of the Musket Squad came to Zhao Wu and said.

Zhao Wu walked forward two steps, holding a musket in his hand, and glanced over the dark head of the person in front of him, and said, "Who is Zhang Laifu? Stand out."

After asking, no one answered below.

Zhao Wu showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth, raised the bird gun in his hand and pointed the trigger at the gambling table next to him.

Bang!

Wood chips flew up on the gambling table, and there was an extra hole on it.

"Ask again, who is Zhang Laifu? Stand up by yourself and don't wait for me to do it." Zhao Wu shouted.

Recharge the gunpowder and iron beads on your hand and use a strip to compact it.

"I, I am Zhang Laifu." A thin man stood up from the crowd squatting on the ground.

Zhao Wu pointed with his hand and said, "Go over there and hold your head and squat."

Zhang Laifu walked out of the crowd tremblingly and staggered to an open space and squatted down.

Zhao Wu stopped looking at him and continued, "Who else went to Han Zhuangzi to force Han Guangsan to write the IOU, stand up by yourself."

Xiao Qi in the crowd felt a little shocked, and knew something was wrong. Most of the people holding bird guns in front of him were people with the tiger flag.

Thinking of this, he looked at the Fourth Master not far away with his help.

The Fourth Master didn't go to see Xiaoqi at all, and his head was buried deep between his legs.

"It doesn't matter if you don't come out." Zhao Wu snorted coldly, and then said to Zhang Laifu, "Who is there with you in Laicai Gambling House? I'll point it out to me."

"Yes, yes." Zhang Laifu stuttered and stood up slowly. His eyes were searching for the crowd squatting on the ground on the other side, and finally landed on Xiaoqi and said, "Qi, Master Qi, you come out by yourself!"

Xiaoqi knew that he could not hide, so he stood up from the ground with a tough bullet.

"There's more!" Zhao Wu asked.

The news he received was that there were more than two people going to Hanzhuangzi, Zhang Laifu and Xiaoqi.
