Chapter 42

Before Zhou Binglin came to the study through the corridor, he saw several people carrying a thing out, covered with white cloth, and blood dripping down.

"What's the matter?"

He frowned, stopped a steward and asked.

The steward was excited. Seeing that it was Zhou Binglin, he told him, "it's the maid in the yard of the fourth wife! The master was upset about the relief in winter, and the third wife grabbed the girl again, saying that her hands and feet were not clean. Later, it was found out that she was not lucky, so she killed her directly... "

Zhou Binglin also shivered, came to the study, gently buttoned the door: "Dad!"

"Binglin? Come in

Zhou Binglin stepped lightly, entered the door, saluted respectfully, and dared not take a breath.

"How's it going?"

Although he just killed a servant with his staff, Zhou Tongan's face was calm, scholarly and full of Confucian virtues.

"It has been agreed that the third uncle's family will pay fifty taels of silver to the fourth aunt's family and make up another stone of grain every year!"

Zhou Binglin said softly.

"One by one, for the sake of land and money, even the ancestors are ignored!"

Zhou Tong'an snorted coldly: "if you are the same relative, you can fight for the red eye. You really don't want to be a son of man!"

"There are so many affairs in the clan that other big families can't escape. Now our Zhou family can keep stable thanks to our father's sitting in the middle and planning strategies!"

Zhou Binglin bowed himself and said this with sincerity. He knew that the bigger the family, the more difficult it was to level off a bowl of water. Every room and every vein was like a wolf.

If it wasn't for the father's method, it would be hard to support it.

"Ah... It's good that both sides agree!"

Zhou Tong'an asked about the situation in detail, and Zhou Binglin answered one by one. Then he was relieved: "you're doing a good job, but you don't have a good time..."

Then he said, "in the cold winter, we should pay attention to the shortage of firewood, rice and noodles in every room. We should always keep an eye on the area where we have children. We should not stop cooking. We should take up the new job in the county. At this time, we are not good-looking because of the cold and hunger."

"Of course, it has been confirmed early that money and rice are provided... Only in the accounting room?"

Zhou Binglin hesitated.

"Wait a little longer. It's time for the song martial arts master to arrive these two days. When their money is escorted, it's easy to do..."

Zhou Tongan also sighed.

Other people think that the Zhou family is rich in wealth and wealth, but they don't know that this big family, thousands of people, plus the family's sons and maidservants, has a lot of expenses, not to mention two officials to support.

At this time, they all expected Zhou Tongren and Hu Zhubo to go further. Naturally, they could not do without the filial piety of their superiors.

In other words, if you want to be safe, you have to be very leisure. If you live in peace with others, you will have no faults or achievements. When you get old, you will be able to save a lot of money.

But if you want to continue to climb up, first of all, the boss can't be less filial, and the next can't be too ruthless. From time to time, you have to invite people's hearts. This is a big consumption, and it all depends on the Zhou family.

"When it comes to this, I feel a little uneasy. You can ask again..."

Zhou Tongan just said, a burst of rapid footsteps came: "master, it's not good!"

When a man came in, Zhou Binglin knew that he was the most trusted housekeeper of his father, Lao Zhou, holding a letter.

Although he wanted to see it, Zhou Binglin did not dare to move his head. He was afraid that he would be taken as evidence of his desire to be the head of the family. His heart was even more sad.

"Vertical son!"

Bang!

Zhou Tong'an took it, and when he saw it in a few lines, he was very angry. As soon as he patted the table, the cups fell to pieces and were in a mess.

"Father, calm down!"

Zhou Binglin and old Zhou knelt down, and then they could ask, "what's the matter?"

"You see... You see... The Wu children are so bold!" Zhou Tongan threw the letter paper and drew it on Zhou Binglin's face. It hurt.

At this time also can't care, hurriedly saw, in the heart is also big Lin: "unexpectedly dare so..."

He is a son of an aristocratic family. He has some fear about this method of lifting the table when he doesn't agree: "can you explain the situation and ask the government to help suppress it?"

"Son of a bitch!"

Zhou Tongan yelled angrily and pointed to old Zhou again: "tell him!"

Old Zhou said with a bitter smile, "young master, it's impossible! Wu's hometown inspection office has already gone to the county government of W, saying that it was a night attack on the bandits and the destruction of more than 50 people in jietianfeng group. The county magistrate has to ask for credit for it... As long as they bite to death and the goods are captured in the mountain bandits' stockade, we can't imagine without evidence... "

"Wu Ming..."

Zhou Binglin was a bit surprised. In his memory, he was just a dandy. He didn't want to see some real color at this time. He was really decisive and fierce.

"Good! Good! Good

Zhou Tongan also sneered: "the tiger doesn't get angry, when my Zhou family is a sick cat... Lao Zhou, you go to order, let the black tiger and the rolling dragon move. All our warrior leaders are in the team. The deacon of destiny, the second deacon and several worshippers all go to open the armory and pick up the good ones... Hum! On the elite, is his Wu family as good as my Zhou family? I want him to die without a place to die! "

Zhou Binglin is very exciting. Black tiger and gundilong are all famous bandits in Yunping county. Even he now knows that they are his own dogs!

Now, obviously, his father has already given up his official plan and is ready to take Wu Ming by direct force!

At this time, Zhou Tong'an pointed to Zhou Binglin again: "to ensure peace, in prosperous times, it depends on literary talent, in troubled times, it depends on military force. This time, you will go with us! Do come back with the child's head

"Yes, sir

No matter how unwilling he was, there was no room for Zhou Binglin to refuse. He could only kneel down and say.

But immediately, another deacon came to report quickly, holding a bamboo tube in both hands: "the flying letter of the Taoist temple is the highest level!"

"Bring it!"

Zhou Tongan took it, a ring in his hand glowed, and the bamboo tube cracked automatically, and a roll of ancient paper emerged.

"This..."

A few lines have seen it, but Zhou Tong'an seems to have been pulled out of his chair. After a long time, he sighs: "this operation is temporarily cancelled!"

It seems to be an illusion. Zhou Binglin suddenly feels that Zhou Tong'an is bent, as if he is a little old again.

……

Spoon mountain, in the village.

Wu Ming, who is ready, knows what it means to be a man rather than a God.

"Well? A letter from my sister? "

Instead of waiting for the Zhou family's revenge, Wu Qing's letter was waiting, which made Wu Ming confused. After he opened it, he suddenly realized it.

"My elder sister wrote to say that she had convinced the Zhou family and made them suffer from dumb losses... Of course, I went too far. In exchange, the Taoist temple could not include me any more. She wanted me not to worry. She would think of another way..."

Wu Ming put the letter paper away and put it in his arms, but he felt his nose, which was a little embarrassed.

This kind of feeling of being sheltered by his sister's wings is taken for granted by the former dandy, but he feels a little unworthy.

"Actually, I can solve it!"

Unfortunately, there is no way to tell others about this.

"According to my plan, this time we will lure the enemy in and support the war with war, which will be enough to catch all the elite of the Zhou family! At that time, the Zhou family will be a tiger with teeth pulled out. I'll be able to do it, and I'll be able to train a wonderful and excellent army! "

The original idea was that when the Zhou family retaliated, they would annihilate the dark forces of the Zhou family in one fell swoop with the grain, medicine, and even talismans provided by the main temple in the mountains!

In this way, if the Zhou family has no military support, it will be a huge piece of fat. If it is not done well, the family will be broken and the people will be dead.

This is the only way to get rid of the root cause and make them have no revenge.

Of course, Wu Ming also knows that he has to be questioned if he has changed his supplies for no reason. However, there are many Taoist items like mustard bags and space rings in this world, but they are very rare and can't be reached by the big families in the county. This reason can be used to cover up at that time.

Even, after finishing this matter, you can make secret efforts to wipe out all the forces against Wu Qing, and then you can repay the favor and end the physical cause and effect. In the future, you can be broad-minded, aggressive and defensive.

No matter how bad it is, you can run away naturally. With the help of the Lord's temple, you can go all over the world!

But now, causality has deepened.

"Alas... The beauty is very kind and can't agree with each other. What should I do?"

Wu Ming's head was far away, as if he wanted to throw out some unhealthy thoughts: "come on! Inform Feng Han, let's go back! "

As for what was said in the letter, Wu Ming directly ignored it.

It's just a county-level Taoist temple. Wu Ming, who already has a lot of Taoist secrets, naturally doesn't care.

Although it's a pity that he can't get a steady stream of Dharma formulas from the Taoist temple, it's just that he needs more merits. Wu Ming, who is determined to be the master of the main temple, hasn't paid much attention to it.

……

For Zhou and Wu tenants, these days can be called calm.

Even up and down, there is a festive atmosphere of the Chinese New Year. When Wu Ming comes back, this kind of atmosphere has reached its peak.

"Young master, we've got 5000 taels of silver, 15 pieces of beautiful jade, refined iron, green salt, and even various kinds of gifts. Conservatively, we've got 15000 taels of silver."

Zhao song was excited and told Wu Ming.

"Well! I promised in advance that there would be 20% as a pension, that is, 3000 Liang, 100 Liang for each person. For those who are disabled or died in the war, their families would be divided into another five mu of land! "

Wu Ming said, and saw Zhao song's face full of excitement. He knelt down and said, "the master is wise. We are willing to die for him!"

It's not particularly dangerous, but it's very fruitful. Naturally, there's nothing to say.

After all, it's just robbing a caravan at best. It's not a big deal at this time, so I'm quite satisfied.

To be honest, this is what Wu Ming considered earlier.

Even if the Zhou family's elite is exhausted this time, as long as the leaders are not killed, it will only be the level of a fight between two villages.

If you can succeed in one fell swoop, you will be able to wipe out the hidden and potential forces of the Zhou family. How long can you protect them by only two official positions?

Unfortunately, the plan can't keep up with the change after all!
