Zhao Liang, who made up his mind to curry favor with Heshen, did not show any action after returning home.

What's in a hurry?

The 39th year of Qianlong had just begun.

The Zhao family wanted to curry favor with Heshen and expand their business to the capital, so they had to wait until the matter of Chenzhou Prefecture came to an end, right?

The most important priority at the moment is to serve Su Hetai well.

Mr. Zhao sighed and waved his hand to ask Dad Zhao, Liang's second uncle, Zhang Guanglie and others to go down and prepare, leaving only his precious grandson at hand.

It was obvious that he wanted to say something to Zhao Liang, but he didn't say anything when he spoke.

What are you talking about?

I asked my grandson to leave his family business and concentrate on studying and studying literature. Is it good to be a gold list? Is it so that the Zhao family has a real foundation and will never be called away?

But if you look at the entire Zhao family, who can support this family business except his precious grandson?

So, that's all.

Mr. Zhao is not young anymore and is already over the age of passion. The anger in his heart is only a moment, and when the energy passes, he calms down.

Just as I wrote before, the road is a choice made by everyone. Now that the backlash is coming, let’s carry it together.

Zhao Liang had a very impulse in his heart, and he went to tell the old man not to worry, his baby grandson could turn over the table!

Not to mention the granary treasury, but to just talk about the bandit, he only needs to play a few more times and do a few big cases in Chenzhou Prefecture, so he can naturally make the new magistrate full of money, and even run to the government office to take the official's head. Isn't the Zhao family going to have no crisis at all?

Everything is natural. Who told the Chenzhou Prefecture militia to be so hot? This is what the bandits are fighting against.

Even such a thing can be put on Su Hetai's head now.

Who asked Su Hetai to go to the initiator of the militia? How normal is he so "active" to carry out militia construction that makes the bandits angry?

Zhao Liang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he found that it seemed natural that he had come over to get Su Hetai now.

This not only disrupts Su Hetai's steps, but also truly creates tension in eastern Henan. Not to mention unraveling the Zhao family, just make some trouble for Su Hetai and add some reserve materials to their small treasury. That is excellent!

"Qi Dian, Feilu, you will immediately take people to investigate the situation of small groups in various parts of Huaining. You should be more detailed, from the number of posts on the checkpoint to the patrol team, from the number of books to the actual number. Check them clearly for me. Please hurry!"

After returning to his residence, Zhao Liang immediately called Qidian Feilu and two close servants. While paying them 100 taels of silver, he also assigned them a secret mission.

At the starting point, Feilu received the letter and ran to the second housekeeper in the front yard without any concealment, and sent a few people there to start. That night, the man left Dazhaozhuang.

There is no need to avoid this matter at all.

Because in a sense, this information was investigated for the mission of the Lao Zhao family. There is no need to avoid others!

...

It will take time to investigate the information, but the militia at Longlukou have already begun.

The cold wind whistling night.

At the checkpoint on Xiaozhai South Road, Zhang Damazi sat next to the fire with his neck shrank, staring straight at the sweet potatoes in the fire.

This is his extra meal at night. Although it does not have the aroma of white flour steamed buns roasted by Zhang Ping'an, he is already very satisfied with Zhang Damaziyan.

As a famous poor household in Xiaozhang Village, the time he worked hard for the Lao Zhao family was better than staying at home to eat. Especially for the Ding Zhuang who was vigilant like them, he also had a half pound of mixed grain cakes weighing half a pound every night.

Zhang Damazi was always reluctant to eat it. He broke the mixed grain cakes with half a pound and cooked them with sweet potatoes. He could make a pot of porridge with them.

Therefore, Zhang Damazi's extra meals at night have always been sweet potatoes, and Zhang Damazi himself is also the one with the most night shifts among the people in Xiao Zhangzhai.

Helplessly, his family was poor, so he just wanted to have half a pound of mixed grain cakes, and he just wanted to have two more copper coins than the day shift.

And what about Zhang Ping'an next to him?

That was Zhang Songnian's nephew, but he was not Zhang Songling's son.

The Zhang family has a great business, and there are many branches and branches.

The Zhang Ping'an family is a branch of the forks from the Zhang family. Although there are two generations of people, the Zhang Ping'an family is still considered a wealthy family in Xiao Zhang Village.

Such families would not join the militia, but Zhang Ping'an still joined. This was not his willingness, but the decision of the entire Zhang family.

Although Zhang Songnian and Zhang Songling brothers do not take the militia seriously, they always have to control the checkpoints of Xiao Zhangzhai, right?

Furthermore, they must have some understanding of the trends and details of the militia.

It is natural to send people to join the militia.

The Zhao family did not react very fiercely to this, but simply gave the Xiao Zhangzhai checkpoint to the Zhang family.

In this regard, the Zhang family’s opinion is that the Zhao family does not want to do things too well. They have already taken a big advantage in the militia. They should eat meat and leave some soup for the Zhang family.

He glanced at Zhang Damazi, who was gnawing sweet potatoes on the edge, and Zhang Ping'an's eyes were full of disgust.

Zhang Damazi, a name that sounds quite green-skinned, is completely incompatible with Zhang Damazi himself. This is an honest farmer, a mud leg that is completely standardized, and even a wooden bump can't be stomped out with three legs.

The reason why he got such a name is entirely because Zhang Damazi got smallpox when he was a child. Although he was lucky enough to survive, he also had a look of pockmarks, so he was called by Zhang Damazi.

Compared to Zhang Gouzi, who was standing guard outside and Zhang Erhu, who was roasting steamed buns for him next to him, Zhang Ping'an was impatient with Zhang Damazi.

The fire fluctuated, and the burning wood made the sound of Kabakaba from time to time. Zhang Damazi's face greatly affected Zhang Ping'an's appetite under the light of the fire.

"What about you? Go to the post and replace the dog."

Zhang Damazi, who was eating roasted sweet potatoes, stopped. What caught his eye was Zhang Ping'an's full of impatientness and the smile of Zhang Erhu's eyes. He looked at Zhang Ping'an with a pleasing smile, without any anger, and without making any distinction, he stood up and walked out.

The four people on the night today, except for Zhang Ping'an with the title of a team leader on his head, the other three were all team members. But he had the lowest status because he was the least able to win Zhang Ping'an's eyes.

Zhang Damazi knew it very well, so he asked him to stand guard and worked hard.

I didn't even dare to be angry because the Zhang Ping'an was standing behind the big Zhang family.

As a tenant of the Zhang family, perhaps a family of five hundred years ago, Zhang Damazi had no idea of ​​resisting Zhang Ping'an.

However, the guard post at that night was really cold.

If such a life continues like this, how long can the "awe" in Zhang Damazi's heart last?

The cold wind blew Zhang Damazi's face, which was really colder than beside the fire.

Behind him, Zhang Gouzi's compliment to Zhang Ping'an sounded.

Of course, I have to give a compliment. If it were time, he would have to freeze outside for at least half an hour before he could hand over the shift with Zhang Damazi.

"But the New Year is the New Year, I suddenly ordered to strengthen patrols and investigations. What is the old Zhao family doing?"

"...I don't know why the Zhao family is doing something wrong again... It's the New Year and it's been a lot of trouble..."

"I'm afraid something is wrong." Zhang Ping'an's voice, "You don't know that this morning, the scholar from the Zhao family and Zhao Liang hurriedly took a car to the mansion..."
