Zhang Hu and Brother Bad Breath rode a mule together and trotted along the mountain road.
Brother Bad Breath was sitting behind Zhang Hu, holding Zhang Hu's fat waist tightly with both hands, and almost vomited as he was bouncing up and down: "Is this your horse? Why does it look like a mule to me?"
"At this time, if you are still picky, you can run faster, right?"
Su Ren was drinking tea. The tea was a little cold and tasted weird. It had been three days since he came back and his life was finally back on track.
Huo Jin murmured to him about his little friend, and also about Taoist Master Chongxu. After the old Taoist came back, he has not been idle, and even started to deceive people again. He killed Liu Wen's youngest son.
Not only did the incident not make him neglected, his popularity increased instead of falling, and many sick villagers came to see him.
"This old man has not changed his bad habits and is still lying to people. How will he end up curing people to death someday?"
Su Ren was noncommittal: "So what? Those who saw the doctor all said that they were saved because of the Taoist priest's superb medical skills, but whether they were saved or not was because of their family members' fate. It's hard to buy people's happiness if you have money. If you go to the Taoist priest now,
If you speak ill of me, you will definitely be beaten up by those people!"
"I'm too lazy to talk about it. It's none of my business to seek death! My second brother and eldest sister didn't try to dissuade you. They just watched the old man continue to harm people? Our Lao Junguan has lost all his face."
"Remember, this is not our Laojun Temple, this place belongs to the Taoist Priest!"
Hawking immediately regained his energy: "Brother, we have money now, so why not find a good place to build a house again? It is not suitable for a good Wenshui Salt Company to be placed in this Taoist temple. I think it is in the city and the roads are good.
It’s easy to walk in and out, and you can also keep an eye on Liu Wen to prevent that guy from playing any more tricks! Not in the city, Shuangzuishan is also good.”
"This is a good suggestion. We really can't stay in the mountains any longer!"
"If you agree, I will go to Uncle Hu to discuss it."
Hawking left happily, and Zhang Hu came with his bad-breathing brother, who was tired of their travels. Neither of them were good at riding horses. The ride was so bumpy that they couldn't walk after getting off the mule. They limped into the old house.
When you look around, you see Su Ren sitting under a tree enjoying the cool air. Brother Bad Breath rushed over to him, picked up the teapot and drank it all together.
Su Rennao looked at the two of them with interest: "You two ride on the same mule, your relationship is unusual! You must be good friends, right?"
"What is a gay friend?" Zhang Hu didn't understand.
The brother with bad breath put down the teapot and knelt at Su Ren's feet: "Sir, help me! Liu Wen, Liu Wen... is going to rebel!"
In addition to Su Ren, there were many people in the yard. Most of them were businessmen who came to see Su Ren. Cui Jiuming was stopping him and sitting next to him to discuss the establishment of the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce. The bad-breathing brother's voice attracted everyone's attention.
They were all attracted.
Cui Jiuming's eyes widened: "How can a small county magistrate rebel? This matter should be reported to the county magistrate. What are you doing here?"
"The county captain is also in the same group!"
"ah!"
Everyone was extremely surprised. Su Ren pulled Brother Bad Breath up: "What's going on? Speak slowly when you get up. It's not easy to rebel. You won't be able to fight for a while. What do you know? Tell me everything and let's think about it.
There will always be a way with so many people."
Rebellion was a big deal. Su Ren pulled everyone in with just one sentence. He was so frightened that he turned around and ran out the door. Cui Jiuming also took a step back, thought about it, and felt that he should not leave at this time, so he hurriedly
He stopped. Rebellion means killing an official. Even if he wants to kill Su Ren, it has nothing to do with Cui Jiuming. As long as he doesn't show his face then it will be over. There is no need for Su Ren to look down on him at this time.
Brother Bad Breath has already begun to tell Su Ren about the plans of Liu Tang, Liu Wen and his son: "They are mainly targeting Mr., and they want to kill Mr. and blame everything on the bandits. Liu Wen has already prepared manpower to go!"
"That's unreasonable!" Hawking didn't know when he came back, and his lungs exploded when he heard this: "Brother, I will bring people to arrest those two father and son, and see what else they can do!"
Su Ren asked the brother with bad breath: "Does the county magistrate know about this?"
The brother with bad breath shook his head: "I met Zhang Tou as soon as I went out. He took me straight to Laojun Temple without paying any attention to the county magistrate."
This sounds strange. The county magistrate Changshi is the highest-ranking official in Wenshui, and the county government office is next door to Liu Wen's house. When the bad-mouthed brother heard the news about Liu Wen's rebellion, he did not go to inform the county magistrate. Instead, he came to Laojun Guan to tell Su Ren. Obviously
They got the wrong person. What's even more strange is that the county government officials also behave in the same way, which makes people think deeply.
Su Ren thought for a while: "Brother Zhang Hu, you have worked hard and rode your mule back to the city immediately. Tell the county official what happened. Liu Gao (brother with bad breath), you will also go back and continue to monitor the Liu family and see them.
What are the preparations? Everyone, please disperse! Liu Wen is going to rebel, and he is actually targeting me. If you continue to stay at Laojun Temple, it will only be in danger, so you should pack your things and take shelter for now!"
Zhang Hu and Brother Bad Breath quickly agreed, turned around and walked out the door. The merchants surrounding the yard also ran out the door. Since Su Ren asked them to leave, they would be fools to stay here.
Cui Jiuming did not leave: "Mr. Su, just tell me if there is anything I can do. I will never leave!"
Su Ren chuckled: "Thank you Mr. Cui, I really need your help with something. With Mr. Cui's ability, he must have some connections in Chengdu. Mr. Trouble will go to Chengdu immediately and find a way to reveal the situation of Wenshui to Daxing Ling and Shu
County Governor Wen Dang, please leave me with everything. Whether I, Lao Junguan, can persist depends on whether I can persuade the two superior officers to send troops in time."
"Okay! I'll leave now and I'll get it done as soon as possible!"
"Excuse me!"
"You're welcome, we are a family, farewell!"
After dismissing the people in the yard, Su Ren called Huo Jin to him: "Go and find your second brother and Hu Ji. Liu Wen is completely ruined this time. His first target is our Laojun Guan. We also
We cannot sit back and wait for death, tell them not to alarm anyone for the time being, and wait until everything becomes clear."
The sudden tense atmosphere made everyone in Laojun Temple alert. Some smart people had begun to find out what happened, and some even quietly left Laojun Temple for a while.
Leng Jun and Hu Ji came in a hurry, and Taoist Master Chongxu also came with them. As soon as they met, they apologized to Su Ren: "It's all the trouble caused by me, the old Taoist. If I didn't come back, Liu Wen wouldn't be so impatient."
"What did the Taoist Master say? This matter has nothing to do with the Taoist Master. It's just Liu Wen who jumped over the wall in a hurry. Everyone, please sit down and let's discuss it. We must guard Laojun Temple and wait for reinforcements to arrive."
"Are there any reinforcements?" Leng Jun asked: "Our people are all in Wuyang, and it will take four or five days to come back. Laojun sees that there are only old, weak, women and children now. I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on for that long!"
Hu Ji nodded: "Yes! Since Liu Wen and Hou Jian rebelled together, Hou Jian's five hundred soldiers and horses are their biggest support. The total number of guards left in Laojun Temple is only forty or fifty. Laojun
It’s even easier to attack and hard to defend, and it’s hard to persevere!”
"What are you afraid of! We will kill him if he dares to come. One will kill one, two will kill a pair!" Hawking was fully armed, with the red tassel gun in his hand.
Su Ren glared at Hawking: "Shut up, you have no place to speak here! Both of you are right, Laojun Temple is not a good place to defend, so I decided to give up Laojun Temple."
"Give up!" Leng Jun was shocked: "As soon as we leave, the people who follow us will be retaliated by Liu Wen and must not leave!"
"It's important to save your life! Taoist priest, you should go find those three elders now. Brother Hu should also talk to the foreman in our workshop. Tell the truth about the situation here. If you are willing to follow us, pack your things immediately and tell us to move.
, If you want to move to Shuangzui Mountain, you must not cause panic among the people. Huo Jin takes all the guards to escort his family and people and set off immediately without any hesitation."
"What about you, brother?" Hawking asked quickly: "What will you do once we leave?"
"I'll stay, I'll be with Zi Heng." Leng Jun said calmly.
Su Ren smiled slightly: "Don't worry, although the Liu family has been prepared for a long time, they still need to be prepared if they really want to take action. What they want is me. As long as I stay in Laojunguan, they will not make things difficult for you. They can delay it for a while."
, Besides, Liu Tang, Liu Wen, and Hou Jian said they wanted to rebel, but it is hard to say whether they can carry out the rebellion. Rebellion must be a serious crime. Once it starts, there is no turning back. As long as they dare to move, they will be passive.
If the matter is urgent, hurry up!"
Su Ren is the recognized leader of Laojun Temple. With one order, the entire Laojun Temple started to move. The strict organizational structure and modern management methods played a key role at this time. Taoist priest Chongxu and Hu Jier
They have persuaded most of the people and craftsmen to follow them, and loading and packing are proceeding in an orderly manner.
Leng Yue and Huo Qianshi also began to greet the family members who stayed in Laojun Temple. Huo Jin sent sentries outside Wenshui City, and they would know immediately if there was any trouble. The state of external delivery and internal tightness has always been the purpose of Laojun Temple management.
Very suitable for responding to emergencies.
Su Ren and Leng Jun did not move, still sitting at the Eight Immortals table under the big tree. Drinking cold tea, the two were speechless. Who would have expected that the Liu family would think so highly of them that they would rebel instead of attacking the county government.
But he came to clean up Laojun Temple.
"Tell me, what are our chances of winning this time?" Leng Jun took a sip of herbal tea with a faint smile on his lips.
"I don't know, I'll give it a 50-50 shot!"
"This incident reminds me of the time we were taught a lesson in the city. Changshang sent Zhang Hu to watch from the entrance of the alley. We beat away the private salt dealers, and then he came in to clean up the situation. Now we have to fight with Liu Wen again.
Fighting, Chang Shi will definitely stand aside and watch."
"It's not surprising! Besides being afraid of trouble and loving money, Chang Shi is also a good official. He doesn't exploit the people, which is already very good." Su Ren leaned back on the chair: "Chang Shi is an outsider and has no feelings for Wen Shui.
Ever since he came here, Liu Wen and Hou Jian have ignored him. It’s useless to expect him to do anything. This time, we are fighting side by side again. Aren’t we excited? Hahaha..."

I will go to work tomorrow, which is too soon. I see Su Ren is about to show off his power. Please support Si Guan more! (To be continued)
