As for the other ten bosses, although they are somewhat inferior to these three in terms of quality, they are either powerful figures in the government, hold important positions in big gangs, or are particularly good at fighting but not good at acting.
Outside they were all famous people. But now they could only line up in a row, catching lice and basking in the sun under the south wall...
You use your hands to catch lice, and you can't be idle. Naturally, you have to brag and talk about the glorious history. This is Hu Sandao's strength. His thieves roared in all directions, and they licked blood all day long, but he didn't brag.
, you can also talk about the last three days and three nights. Unlike Master Long Wu, who actually made a living in half black and half white, and lived a generally stable life. The most exciting time in his life was the time when he was arrested, so naturally he couldn't.
Let’s talk about it. So every time at this time, Long Wuye could only close his eyes slightly and take a nap, listening to Hu Sandao whispering in his ears:
"That year, I took my brothers to Lunan to hunt for food. As soon as I entered the field, I heard Chen Dayan, the leader of the lake bandits on Weishan Lake, saying that I would never come back!"
"Wow, Chen Dayan, that's a famous figure. He even dared to rob the imperial court's water transportation, and the government couldn't do anything about him!" This kind of joke about Guan Gong fighting Qin Qiong was naturally everyone's favorite, and they all joined in.
"Not bad." Seeing how enthusiastic the audience was, Hu Sandao glanced at Long Wuye proudly and said in a loud voice: "He has many people under his command, and there are thousands of ships alone..."
"This is too exaggerated..." Long Wuye, who was in a slumber, couldn't help but sarcastically said: "My gang is crossing the Yangtze River, but I don't even have a thousand boats. He, a water bandit in Weishan Lake, can have one
A hundred boats would burst the sky."
Seeing that he had boasted, Hu Sandao blushed, straightened his neck and said: "Brother, I'm going to argue. Do you think there are a thousand boats on Weishan Lake? Who in the entire Weishan Lake dares not to listen to him?"
"What you say..." Long Wuye closed his eyes: "I have nothing to say."
"What happened next?" Deng Xiaoxian immediately said to Xi Ni: "You two are a dragon king on the water and an overlord on the land. It would be interesting if you faced each other."
"Yes, yes." Everyone nodded.
"Who says it's not the case?" Hu Sandao said proudly: "As soon as I arrived at the boundary, he actually left a message for me, inviting me to eat crabs on Weishan Island."
"Wow, this is letting Third Master into the water!"
"Yeah, how could I be so stupid? I immediately replied to the post and invited him to Jining Mansion to eat dried pork rice..." Hu Sandao said proudly.
"Hahaha, Third Master's skill is so good, the tip of a needle is pointed at the wheat awn! If he doesn't dare to come, you can't blame Third Master for not daring to go." Everyone laughed and asked eagerly: "What happened next, what exactly did he eat?
Crab, or dry rice?”
"I didn't even succeed." Hu Sandao said proudly: "Later, I wandered around Jining for two months, and this grandson didn't dare to go ashore. It wasn't until I left Lunan that he popped out and said, that is, Hu San
The knife escaped early, otherwise he would have died without a burial place!"
"Hahahaha..." Everyone laughed and said, "With all the words left, the third master should fight back and see what else he says."
"That's not true..." Hu Sandao scratched his belly and said: "How can I have so much free time to fight with him? But this time I know that anyone who eats water and eats has only one fucking mouth.
The real thing is to sail away in a boat, and then come out and talk about it after the limelight is over. It’s not as good as the food we make on the road, it’s all done with real swords and guns!”
No one dared to laugh now, because even a fool could tell that Hu Sandao was cursing Master Long Wu in a roundabout way. Seeing Master Long Wu’s face turned purple, everyone was very nervous and didn’t know what to do.
After a while, the boss and the second son started arguing over which side they should take.
"Okay, don't hang around here anymore. It's such a hot day and all the stinky sweat has gone away." It was Deng Xiaoxian who spoke again, and everyone dispersed with a roar as if they had received an amnesty.
As soon as the crowd dispersed, the three people who were still standing there were revealed.
"Oh, isn't this Mr. Wu?" Deng Xiaoxian immediately jumped up and saw Wu Wei standing aside with his hands down. The leader was an unfamiliar young man. He hurriedly asked cautiously: "Is this... Mr. Wang?"
"
"Yes, I am Wang Xian." Wang Xian was not wearing official uniform and looked at Deng Xiaoxian with a smile and his hands behind his back.
Now Long Wu couldn't sit still anymore and hurriedly kowtowed to Wang Xian. He supported him and laughed loudly and said: "I can't bear your age, so I'll leave you alone."
These words made Long Wu's heart elated, and he immediately had a good impression of this adult.
Hu Sandao had a straight face and didn't want to get up at first, but seeing that both Long Wu and Deng Xiaoxian were like that, he had no choice but to get up too, making a show of kneeling.
"Hahaha, let's avoid it. A person as famous as Chen Dayan would not dare to talk to the third master." Wang Xian laughed and waved his hands: "How can I dare to show off in front of the third master?"
Seeing that his bragging had been overheard, Hu Sandao blushed and said sarcastically: "You can't take it seriously."
"Third Master, you don't have to be humble. What kind of person you are, I am still a thunderous person!" Wang Xian said with a smile: "Hu Sandao, formerly known as Hu San, was from Hujia Village, Qingzhou Prefecture. During the Jingnan Campaign, you
You led a group of brothers to join the Confederate Army, and you became one of the hundred households. As soon as the Confederate Army was defeated, you were demobilized. You and your brothers didn't want to go home to farm, so you fell into disgrace and became thieves. For more than ten years, you have been living in Shandong.
You have done many cases, and the government has nothing to do with you."
Wang Xian was there with all his family treasures, but Hu Sandao felt like he was standing naked in front of the public, with no privacy at all... But the other party was the governor of Fusi Town, North Town, so no matter what others said, he had to be honest.
listen.
"However, you are also a good thief. You never attack poor people, and you are not allowed to rape women. Instead, you specialize in blackmailing rich families and robbing caravans. You can't eat the money and food you robbed, but you still distribute it to the people.
.So your reputation among the people is not bad. This is also the reason why there are so many thieves in Shandong. In the end, when you develop and grow, your reputation is also the best."
These words made Hu Sandao's blood boil, and he puffed up his chest proudly: "We, the common people in Shandong, are very poor. Even if we plunder them all, we still don't have a few coins. All the money of the common people has gone to the local tyrants and the rich."
There, of course I know who to operate on!"
"Haha..." Wang Xian smiled faintly and changed the topic: "You are the only son in the family. Now, your father has passed away. There is still an old mother at home. You have a wife, two concubines and three sons, but the children are still young. How about you?"
The huge family business is now all supported by your wife. However, your brother Liu Mazi, who is the boss, seems to be having bad ideas recently, which is worrying..."
"Ah?" If Wang Xian said this at first, Hu Sandao would definitely not believe it, but with the first two paragraphs as a foreshadowing, he was convinced. He immediately became anxious: "Liu Mazi, this bastard, I want to expose him
Get rid of his skin! Mr. Wang, let's discuss it. You let me go and come back after I finish taking care of my family affairs."
These words made everyone secretly dumbfounded, thinking that the Third Master really dared to think, what kind of place did he think of the prison? He could come when he wanted, and leave when he wanted?
"No problem." But I never expected that Wang Zhenfu's answer was even more shocking: "The situation is urgent, you can leave now!"
"Aren't you kidding me?" Now it was Hu Sandao's turn not to believe it. In fact, when he said this, he didn't even expect Wang Xian to respond.
"Do you really think I'm joking?" Wang Xian smiled lightly.
"Of course I don't want to." Hu Sandao said excitedly, "Then I'll leave now!"
"Wouldn't this mean that I have become a private prisoner?" Wang Xian said with a smile.
"What do you mean, sir?" Hu Sandao was a little confused.
"Although I am the envoy of the Zhenfu Division, I have no right to release prisoners privately," Wang Xian said sternly, "I can only grant leave to my subordinates."
"..." Hu Sandao understood. He only hesitated for a moment, then knelt on one knee and said: "I am willing to accept your recruitment!"
"Hahaha..." Wang Xian was very pleased, and secretly thought that although these gangsters usually looked confused, they were like mirrors in their hearts. He helped Hu Sandao up with both hands and said: "Third Master, now is a peaceful and prosperous age.
After all, being a thief is not a long-term solution. Even if you can do this for the rest of your life, you have to think about your brothers and your children and grandchildren."
"Yes." Hu Sandao nodded, feeling a little bitter and a little relieved. For a famous gangster leader, this ending seemed not as suitable as being executed by the imperial court. But thinking about his wife and children, he
It is inevitable that the hero will be short of breath and can only lower his unruly head.
"Third Master may still have some knots in his heart right now," Wang Xian smiled and patted his shoulder and said, "But time will prove that this is the wisest choice in your life!"
"Yes." Hu Sandao, a shrewd person like him, would naturally not do stupid things like pretending to be a grandson. He nodded slowly and said, "I, Old Hu, will do it with adults from now on."
"Okay, you go through the relevant procedures with them first, and then quickly return to Shandong." Wang Xian said seriously: "I wonder how many people you need to escort you? Is three hundred enough?"
"No one is needed." Although Hu Sandao rejected Wang Xian's kindness, he was warm in his heart and grinned: "I am not a boaster. As long as I get out of the prison, there will definitely be brothers outside to help me. As long as I get out.
Once the news gets back to Shandong, I’m sure no one will dare to upset him again.”
"Haha..." Wu Wei said with a smile: "So the third master doesn't have to go back to Shandong in person?"
"I still have to go back..." Hu Sandao said sarcastically: "If nothing else, I have to let my mother take a look at me..."
"That's right." Wang Xian nodded and said, "Third Master, please leave quickly."
"Thank you, sir." Hu Sandao saluted Wang Xian, took a step forward and asked with a strange expression: "Aren't you worried that I will never come back?"
"I can trust a man like Third Master who promises a thousand pieces of gold." Wang Xian said seriously.
"Thank you, sir." Hu Sandao gritted his teeth and nodded, "Then let's see you in a month!"
"Okay." Wang Xian nodded.
"See you later, everyone!" Hu Sandao clasped his fists at everyone, and everyone expressed their respect.
At this time, the door opened, and Hu Sandao strode out under the attention of everyone.
