Chapter 49: Relaxation and Tension, the Way of Civil and Martial Arts

Song Yao jumped into the air and suddenly choked.

He fell down again silently.

A team of fierce warriors rushed into the yard and stood in rows on the left and right. Outside the gate, a middle-aged man with an elegant face strode into the yard.

Peng Lu followed the man carefully.

Hadanbaatar and other people from the Governor's Office immediately knelt on one knee , " Your Highness the Governor!"

A gust of wind blew by and Song Yao shivered.

Oh, it’s so cold.

Song Yao quickly shouted , " Song Yao and others from the Shenwei Escort Agency greet the Governor!"

Hundreds of bodyguards bowed down again.

Peng Tianlin waved his hand, "Everyone, get up."

"Who was making such a loud noise and speaking rudely here just now?"

Everyone's eyes were on Song Yao.

Song Yao's face was redder than a monkey's butt, and it was almost bleeding.

"It is... it is I, Song Yao, who disturbed the Lord. I deserve to be put to death!"

Song Yaogang stood up and knelt on one knee again, with his head bowed deeply and his posture very humble.

It has to be lowered. The scolding just now was so embarrassing.

After all, I, Song Yao, am the leader of a famous sect, right?

Who knew that the Governor would hear it.

And it happened just when I was in big trouble. It was really a double whammy!

The dog/day flower is in full bloom!

It's all your fault!

Peng Tianlin ignored Song Yao. He looked at the dozens of treasure chests covering the yard, frowned and asked , " Peng Lu."

Peng Lu flashed out from behind, clasped his fists and said , " I'm here."

"Have you figured out the number of stones? How much silver is needed?"

Peng Lu said , " A rough estimate is that the shortfall is around 110,000 taels! Your Excellency, the head shopkeeper Song Yaosong has volunteered to take responsibility and double the compensation for the Governor's Office's losses."

Peng Tianlin glanced at Song Yao, and Song Yao's body shook violently and almost fell down.

Damn it!

One hundred and ten thousand taels, double compensation, that would be two hundred and twenty thousand taels?

You want to eat someone and leave no bones behind?

elder brother!

Are you trying to kill me?

Is it possible to leave a way out?

Peng Tianlin said angrily , " Send more people to seal off this place. No outsiders are allowed to enter or leave at will! Send someone to rush eight hundred miles to find Princess Yanyu Shangguan Jie to me!"

Peng Lu quickly clasped his fists , " Yes!"

"snort!"

Peng Tianlin snorted heavily, shook his sleeves, and turned away.

The moment he stepped out of the yard, the corners of Peng Tianlin's mouth twitched slightly.

With 110,000 taels, plus the compensation from the Hua family, the army could breathe a sigh of relief.

However, his steps were still heavy.

It was as heavy as if stepping on the hearts of the escorts in the yard.

Poor Song Yao, he knelt on one knee on the ground, not daring to say a word, not even daring to raise his head.

heartbroken.

Peng Lu glanced at Song Yao, shook his head, his face full of pity.

Look, I spoke for you.

Otherwise, the governor will be furious and who knows how he will deal with you!

Just pay some money, don't be dissatisfied. I'm just speaking well of you.

Peng Lu said , " Hadanbaatar, listen to my orders!"

Hadanbaatar clasped his fists and said , " I am here!"

"Send more manpower. No one from the Shenwei Escort Agency is allowed to leave before Princess Shangguan arrives! Pay attention to protect the scene!"

"yes!"

Peng Lu nodded, glanced at Jiao Hua Duxiu with complicated eyes, and turned to leave.

Everyone who had to leave had left, and Hua Duxiu also lost interest in continuing to watch the excitement.

Hua Duxiu gave Shen Lijia a look.

Shen Lijia understood, and immediately shook his head and said , " Brother-in-law, my admiration for you is like a torrential river, stretching endlessly! It's also like a flood that breaks a dike and is out of control at once! Awesome, awesome!"

Hua Duxiu waved her hand , " Zhao Dezhu, don't talk nonsense. Who is your brother-in-law? I am Zhao Buzhu, and you are Zhao Dezhu."

Shen Lijia looked at Song Yao and said , " Then this unlucky old man is Zhao Shizhao?"

Hua Duxiu commented , " Looking at his unlucky look, it's unmistakable."

Shen Lijia said , " Brother Zhao Buzhu, I heard that a new bathing center has opened in Beicheng. It is said to be the top hot spring in the nine worlds. It provides royal enjoyment! It's a pity, it's just too expensive and ordinary people can't afford it!"

Hua Duxiu said loudly , " You're so scared. We are so poor now that we only have money left. What else can't we afford to wash away? Is one hundred thousand taels enough? Let's go and have a look. Just throw the money at him." "

Shen Lijia said happily , " Let's go, Mr. Zhao, please take your time and rest here. We brothers will take the first step!"

Song Yao's emotions, which had finally calmed down, were ignited again. He almost lost his mind and was furious and wanted to kill someone. Song Qingzheng and several elders around him quickly hugged him tightly.

There's no way, this is the Governor's Palace!

You have to endure it!

The Governor just left, who knows if he will suddenly come back?

You were swearing at people just now and now you're hitting people. Don't you take the Governor's Office seriously?

Be patient, be patient, brother!

Song Yao's eyes suddenly widened, and another stream of hot blood spurted out!

"Master, Master!"

Everyone quickly pinched the Ren Zhong point and injected their inner Qi into it. In a panic, Song Yao woke up in a daze.

Walking to Song Yao who was lying on the ground, Hua Duxiu put away his playful expression, sighed, and said seriously:

"Master Song, I am actually a good person. My lifelong ideal is to be a quiet and handsome man, not concerned with worldly affairs, facing the sea, with spring flowers blooming. But you have to force me. If you had known this would happen, why did you do it in the first place?"

Song Yao narrowed his eyes and looked at Hua Duxiu , " ..."

Hua Duxiu shook his head, holding his forehead and looking at the sky , " If you meet someone like me again in the future, remember, don't mess with him, especially the more handsome he is, the less likely you are to mess with him."

"Otherwise, you won't be able to bear the consequences!"

After saying that, Hua Duxiu walked away.

Song Yao and Song Qingzheng looked at each other in silence.

Maybe it was really as Hua Duxiu said, provoking him was a mistake from the beginning?

But is it too late to regret now?

I'm afraid it's too late...

Seeing Hua Duxiu and Shen Lijia leaving as if no one else was around, Hardan Battelle frowned: What a wasteful boy?

It really has the style of us Snake Valley people.

Just three words: So arrogant!

No wonder the young lady fell in love with him, that’s what happened...

It turns out that the young lady likes pretty boys who are coquettish, promiscuous and have no connotation?

well.

Hua Duxiu and Shen Lijia went to the "Heaven and Earth" bathing center in Beicheng to take a good bath and rub themselves in the mud. After two hours, they wandered back to Huashi Villa.

That night, Qian Qian and his son, Shen Feng and his son were in the same room to discuss the division of the stolen goods.

Shen Lijia was calculating in one hand and holding a writing brush in the other, calculating while talking.

This time, a total of more than 110,000 taels of silver were snatched from the Shenwei Escort Agency.

After deducting the 30,000 taels Hua lost, the 10,000 taels spent on hiring various bandits, the 10,000 taels spent on bidding for the Little Red Sword, and the 30,000 taels promised to be handed over to the Governor's Mansion, there was still thirty thousand taels left.

According to Shen Feng's opinion, the money should be added to the sum of five and everyone should divide it in half.

He is indeed the bandit leader.

Isn’t it possible to change the habit of drinking from big bowls, eating big pieces of meat, and pulling women in big carts to weigh gold and silver?

Hua Duxiu disagreed.

"Uncle Feng, our Hua family has received huge benefits from this duel. We don't need a penny of these 30,000 taels of silver. Let's compensate you for it all!"

Shen Feng frowned , " Xiu'er, one code is one code. If we do business together, we have to make money together and eat meat together. What's the matter with me?"

Hua Duxiu said with a smile , " The Hua family is in the escort business, and they make money from business. It would be unreasonable for us to take these 30,000 taels. There are so many brothers in Heifeng Village who depend on the weather to make ends meet. It is rare that we can do it this time." I’m afraid many brothers will be dissatisfied if I don’t give more points to the brothers in Heifeng Village for this big deal.”

Shen Feng said awkwardly , " Who dares to be dissatisfied? I will give you as much as you say, who dares to say anything?"

Having said that, Shen Feng also knew that what Hua Duxiu said made sense.

His original intention was for the Hua family and the Shen family to each receive fifteen thousand taels. Shen Feng didn't want a cent of the fifteen thousand taels and gave them all to his brothers below.

He even had to subsidize a few leaders a little more.

After all, there are a lot of brothers in Heifeng Village. Hundreds of people come to rob, and if you spend fifteen thousand taels for one cent, the average person will not get much.

Qian Qian answered and said , " Brother Feng, please don't refuse. When you separated from Heifeng Village, some people followed you and settled in Shenquan City, while others continued to stay in Heifeng Village to engage in underworld business. The brothers also had to settle the accounts. .After all these years, if you ask brothers to help, you still have to give enough.”

"Take all of these thirty thousand taels."

Shen Feng still wanted to shirk, so Qian Qian said , " Listen to me first."

"After this incident, the Shenwei Escort Agency is definitely doomed. With the endorsement of the Governor, our Huashi Escort Agency's business will not only be able to restore its previous situation, but we can even eat the plates vacated by the Shenwei Escort Agency and make the business even bigger. So it won’t be difficult for Hua to earn these 30,000 taels in the future.”

Hua Duxiu said , " My family is the richest man in Shenquan City. What are you doing with this little money to be polite to the richest man's family?"

Hua Duxiu spread his hands and said , " Are we short of money? We are not short of money. Don't forget it. It's all yours. That's the decision!"

Shen Feng laughed and said cheerfully , " If that's the case, then I'll accept it!"

Shen Lijia said , " Song Yao, that bitch, dared to steal your little red sword. He was so angry that he vomited blood today. This is his retribution!"

Hua Duxiu said kindly , " Well, let's do this for now. Song Yao will be busy with the rest, so I can't force him to death? I have to leave a way for others to survive, so let's not deal with him for the time being."

Shen Lijia said with emotion , " Brother-in-law, you are such a broad-minded person! It is better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies. I can't do that. I still want to give him a good beating!"

Hua Duxiu shook his head , " Let's be merciful when we can! If I had been in such a bad mood that day, I would have killed Song Yao! But then I thought, he had no choice but to use Daya as a lifeline because I forced him to do so, and he didn't dare to hurt Daya even a little bit, so I'd better spare his life."

"Fighting and killing are not harmonious! Let's create a harmonious society and a harmonious you and me. Let's start with myself."

"By the way, Li Butian, Shangguan Jie and the like are all going to be in trouble this time, right? After all, the silver was transported from their warehouse, and they were the ones who found the escort agency. If something goes wrong, no one can escape! Just thinking about it makes me happy!"

Hua Duxiu shook his head slightly , " Based on my understanding of Governor Peng's character, I guess the Governor will not punish them too harshly this time."

Not only Shen Lijia, but also the money spent was a little confused , " That day when my father had an interview with the Governor, he personally promised to take the opportunity to clean up Shangguanjie and his gang?"

"Oh? Governor Peng said it himself? That would be interesting..."

Hua Duxiu said , " It seems that Governor Peng has more problems than we thought. This time, I always feel that we have to deal with it, but we won't make a big move. If he makes a big move, it means he is being forced."

Qian Qian smiled and said , " I don't blame the Governor for being forced into a hurry. It's really the people like Shangguanjie who are so courageous that they even dare to make decisions about the military expenditures of the Governor's Mansion. This is to shake the army and the foundation of the Governor's Mansion."

Hua Duxiu thought for a moment, frowned slightly and said:

"Governor Peng's foundation in the Demonic Valley is not deep enough, and I'm worried that there is someone higher up behind Shangguanjie. If we really want to eliminate Shangguanjie, I'm afraid the people behind him will jump out, and Governor Peng may not be able to control him. Live the situation.”

"Hey, let him be. I don't even bother to worry about my own business, so why bother with the governor of his realm?"

Hua Duxiu decided to let it go, and immediately became calm and didn't think about it at all.

He can afford it and put it down, Master Hua is so cool.

Shen Lijia gritted his teeth again and said , " This Governor Peng is ruthless enough. He actually forced Song Yao to agree to double the compensation for the loss of escort money. Who says he is not ruthless? I think he is ruthless than anyone else! Just open your mouth and you will see more than ten people out of thin air." An increase of ten thousand taels of income!”

Spend money and nod , " After all, he is a governor of the world. Nothing is simple. Governor Peng has made enough money this time. With money, he can win over people's hearts. The army should be able to stabilize it."

Everyone chatted for a while. Since Hua Duxiu decided not to worry about others, she said no more.

After a while, Hua Duxiu spoke again , " Dad, Uncle Feng, Jiajia, I have decided that this matter is over, I am going to Mobei to study!"

Everyone was shocked.

Shen Lijia asked curiously , " Are you going to study in Mobei? Are you going to stay in Shenquan City and become a handsome young man from a rich family?"

Hua Duxiu said dissatisfiedly , " Everywhere I go there are handsome young men from rich families, and it's the same when I go to Mobei."

Shen Lijia nodded , " That's right!"

Huaqian mused , " Yesterday Elder Niu came to visit, and his words revealed that he wanted to invite you back to Moliu Mansion to continue your studies. Don't you plan to go back?"

Hua Duxiu hummed , " You've already fired me, why should I get a haircut?"

"I, Hua Duxiu, want to learn, and naturally I want to learn the best martial arts in the world! This time I want to practice my internal strength well. When I finish it, I will be the first to deal with Fu Yuntong when I come back!"
