Chapter 73 Dangerous, Ximen Qing discovered

"It turns out that this extraditionist also knows the name of this group of strong men."

With Guo Jing and Lin Wancheng came to meet Wu Haogu's young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes. Hearing that Wu Haogu called Song Jiang's name, he bowed and said, "I'm the next surname Zhang and his name is Xizai. Even the shopkeeper of this old Zhang family store is also doing some bodyguards to protect the road. I wonder what the official address is?"

"It turns out it's Zhang Gu, who is here in Wu Haogu." Wu Haogu returned a tribute and asked anxiously: "Can the shopkeeper know how many troops there are in this group of Liangshan strong men? Maybe they can get through it?"

How could he not know the name of the Liangshan bandits? In "Water Margin", they had 108 heroes, with tens of thousands of people, defeating the states and counties, and scattering the Central Plains.

Although most of the "Water Margin characters" that Wu Haogu encountered in reality were worse than those in "Water Margin". There were about 108 heroes and tens of thousands of soldiers in Liangshan, but they still should not be underestimated.

So Wu Haogu is now thinking that he will respond to Tianfu early tomorrow morning... The business in Xuzhou is fine.

Zhang Xizai smiled generously and said, "The official should not worry too much, at most it is a bandit of two or three hundred people."

"Oh." Wu Haogu responded, relieved a little.

Referring to the situation of Gao Qiu, Lin Chong, Lu Qian, and others, I think the group of thieves who came to Liangshan would also shrink.

But two or three hundred, it sounds quite a lot, so I'd better respond to Tianfu...

Zhang Xizai smiled again and said, "But in order to prevent it, Yucheng's escort shop still needs to form a large business group and hire more escorts to travel."

"How big is the big business group?" Wu Haogu asked hurriedly.

"That's hard to say," Zhang Xizai smiled, "There are several escort shops in Yucheng. In the past, they all formed a team alone, and several could protect at most a dozen people across Daze Township.

Some large businesses have guard teams and do not need to hire another bodyguard. They just say hello to Daze Township through Yucheng Guards and give away some gifts, so they can go there safely.

However, now that Daze Township has come to Jianglong, the original heroes have been driven away, and no one can figure out their background. Therefore, several guards and big businesses need to join forces, so that there are many people and power, and there will be no danger."

"So that's the case..." Wu Haogu responded, but was still worried, so he glanced at Lin Wancheng who was always in the world.

Lin Chong's father immediately explained: "Insider, all big businesses usually have strong hands, and all the gods in the world have come to their homes, and they are generally unwilling to let outsiders join. But we are different. We have no luggage, and there are eight good players (Guo Jing and four Pan family guards are also OK), and everyone has horses."

Wu Haogu didn't know the value of a "good player" at this time. In fact, Lin Chong, Lin Wancheng, and Lu Qian, the three cavalry generals who can shoot pearl arrows can make a hundred!

If they were ordinary bandits, they could deal with them even three hundred - of course, this did not mean that one of them could kill one hundred, but that they shot three or five in a row, and the remaining ninety or so were scared away.

As a bandit, that's the only future.

If all the bandits of the Song Dynasty were as fierce as in "Water Margin", how would the elite Western Army look like? How could this Jurchen barbarian fight in?

Although there were three cavalry generals and five ordinary guards, Wu Haogu still felt uneasy and asked Liu Er: "Is there a large caravan passing by in Yucheng now?"

"Yes, there is a caravan heading to Xuzhou to sell raw medicine. There are twenty or thirty guards, very strong. Their boss is just having dinner in the lobby downstairs. If the high-ranking officials want to meet, Xiaodi can lead the way."

"Then I'll bother the shopkeeper." Wu Haogu said, took out a small silver tin from the bag (which looked like a folded wallet) he carried with him and handed it to Zhang Xizai.

Zhang Xizai accepted the money, thanked him, turned around and led the way, and returned to the inn lobby with Wu Haogu.

At this time, there were more than half of the guests in the lobby, and it looked empty. Liu Er, Wu Haogu and others led to a square table placed beside the window. An old man in his fifties sat on the right side of the table, with gray hair and gray hair and a bit similar to Liu Er's appearance. Sitting on the left side of the table was a young man in his early twenties, wearing a blue Confucian uniform, wearing a scholar's scarf, and red peony in his ears and temples. He had a slender figure, elegant expression, handsome face, handsome facial features, and a pale chin with no beard. A pair of narrow and long phoenix eyes filled with colorful light.

Wu Haogu thought to himself: "What a beautiful man."

The handsome man was talking to the old man, his voice was a little sharp, but it sounded quite comfortable.

"Zhang Dubao, your news is not wrong, right? Song Jiang's group of thieves were causing trouble in Yunzhou. How did they come to Xuzhou? Did you want to get a few more money and make up fake news?"

The handsome man called this old man "Zhang Dubao". Zhang is naturally a surname, but Dubao is not a name, but the meaning of "Dubaozheng". According to the Baojia Law implemented in the Song Dynasty, ten private families have one guarantee and one guarantee chief; fifty families have one guarantee and one guarantee chief; ten major insurance companies have one capital guarantee and one capital, and one deputy guarantee chief.

This "Zhang Dubao" is the one who manages 500 villagers.

In Kaifeng Prefecture, Tokyo, where officials are everywhere, Du Baozheng is not very good at all. However, in a place like Yucheng, Du Baozheng must be a powerful man.

If there is a Baoding who can operate Du Baozheng, who has more than a hundred people under his command, with bows, arrows, swords and guns. If these people are asked to go to Kaifeng Prefecture, Tokyo and fight with the more than 200 elite Japanese troops commanded by Mr. Pan, it is really not certain who wins and loses...

And this Zhang Dubao can "travel" on Yucheng. Needless to say, Baoding under his command is definitely more capable of fighting.

In addition, he has the same surname as Zhang Xizai, the shopkeeper of the old Zhang family store, and is mostly the elder of Zhang Xizai's clan.

"Look at what you said, is Zhang Hu such a person? Go and ask your eldest father, what a good person I, Zhang Hu, is in Yucheng..."

"Fourth Uncle," Zhang Xizai took a step forward at this time and saluted the old man who called himself "Zhang Hu". "The military officer is invited."

Zhang Hu hurriedly stood up, urged Wu Haogu, and smiled and said, "I am the next surname Zhang, and I am Du Baozheng from Yucheng."

Wu Haogu also bowed his hand, "I am the surname Wu, Xingda, and I am a painter from Kaifeng Prefecture. I also do some calligraphy and painting business, so I can call you Dalang."

"It turns out that he is a friend of the calligraphy and painting business," the handsome man seemed to know some things about the calligraphy and painting business in Kaifeng Prefecture, stood up and bowed, "Who is you, the military officer in Panlou Street Market?"

"That's my distant uncle," Wu Haogu was careful, but he didn't dare to admit openly that he was Wu Chengzhi's son Wu Haogu. "Wu Dalang, don't you know the name of the high official surname?"

The handsome man nodded, stared at Wu Haogu for a while, then smiled and replied, "I am a doctor who is walking in the world, and he also does some medicinal materials business. His surname is Ximen, and his single name is Qing. If Dalang is not seen outside, he can call me Xiao Yi..."

"Ximen Qing!"

Wu Haogu was almost shocked when he heard this name.

He is now Wu Dalang, Pan Qiaolian is also named Pan Jinlian, and he also met Ximen Qing, and Liangshan heroes were robbing him in front of him... Why does this look like a bit of a key rhythm!

"Brother Dawu, I found you. Hey, who is this great official?"

Wu Haogu was surprised. Pan Jinlian, oh, it should be that Pan Qiaolian had finished taking a shower, wearing a moon-white dress, and a blue scarf on her head. Pingtingting went downstairs.

"Little Langjun," the handsome man Ximen Qing saw "Pan Jinlian" and stepped forward to give a gift, "Ximen Qing is a businessman who is engaged in raw medicine and is also a little more medical. I don't know the name of Xiaolangjun?"
