Sure enough, as soon as Li Zhang finished speaking, Lu Wu slapped his thighs in anger and said, "Don't mention it, the incident of the Divine Bird alarmed His Majesty. As a result, all the yamen runners from several counties around were transferred to clear the ground. But when we went there, we found that the imperial guards had already sealed the mountain and were only allowed to go out but not in, which made us all go in vain. Moreover, if the superiors didn't speak, we didn't dare to leave. We could only guard the foot of the mountain for a few days before we came back today!"

"The mountain is closed? The divine bird has landed on the mountain. Uncle Wu, can you see it at the foot of the mountain?" Li Zhang did not expect that Lu Wu was transferred to block the divine bird, which made him hurriedly ask again. He originally wanted to see if the divine bird was an airplane, but if it was blocked by the imperial guards, what else would he think?

"I can't see that there are several earthen mountains upstream of the Bian River. The sacred birds land on the largest earthen mountain. This earthen mountain is not high, but it is very large. The top of the mountain is relatively flat and covered with trees. You can't see the sacred birds on the top of the mountain from below. I heard that the accident happened when His Majesty went to see the sacred birds. Now the surroundings are all under martial law." Lu Wu said angrily again, moving his mouth and running his legs at the bottom. Their yamen runners guarded the foot of the mountain for a few days, and there was no place to sleep at night.

When Li Zhang heard this, his heart sank. The court had already put martial law around the divine bird and alarmed the emperor. It was estimated that ordinary people could not get close to the divine bird at all. How could he see if the divine bird was an airplane?

"By the way, what are you asking about these things? Do you want to see the divine bird?" Lu Wu glared at this time and asked again. Li Zhang's personality changed too much. Even with the explanation just now, Lu Wu couldn't accept it. What's more, he was still a team leader. His professional vigilance always made him feel that something was wrong with Li Zhang.

"Who doesn't want to see the divine bird? During this period, I heard Douzi and the others say that the whole capital is discussing the divine bird, so I plan to go and see it when the injury is healed. However, after hearing what Uncle Wu said, I'm afraid I won't see it." Li Zhang also saw Lu Wu's suspicion, and hurriedly pretended to be a young man's curiosity. At the end of the day, his face showed a disappointed expression.

Seeing that Li Zhang finally showed a young man, Lu Wu breathed a sigh of relief, because when he was talking to Li Zhang just now, he always felt that he was not facing a twelve-year-old child, but an adult similar to him. This feeling made him very uncomfortable.

"Uncle Wu, you just said that when His Majesty the Emperor went to see the divine bird, what was the accident?" Li Zhang said again and changed the subject, so as not to be discovered by Lu Wu. Of course, he was also very interested in the matter of Emperor Zhao Huan.

"I don't know this either." Lu Wu also showed a puzzled expression at this time, but soon he glared at him, "What are you doing when you inquire about this? Can people like us also ask about the emperor?"

"Uncle Wu taught me a lesson that I will pay attention in the future!" Li Zhang immediately admitted his mistake. Although Lu Wu's tone was not good, he was actually thinking about him. After all, in this imperial power society, anything related to the emperor is a taboo, even in the Song Dynasty, the dynasty with the most restricted imperial power.

"Okay, I always feel that you are a little weird. I didn't have time to go home when I came back today, so I won't sit here with you. You should recover well. When the injury heals, go to the yamen to work with me!" Lu Wu stood up at this time and said, "He was very concerned about Li Zhang's family's affairs. As soon as he came back today, he heard about Li Zhang's injury, so he hurried to visit him, but he hasn't even returned home.

"Uncle Wu stayed, you must have not eaten yet, so why not just have some food here. I just happened to have something to discuss with you!" Li Zhang suddenly called Lu Wudao at this time.

"Eat?" Lu Wu was stunned when he heard Li Zhang's words. He had never thought of eating at Li Zhang. After all, he came here to deliver food to Li Zhang's brother and sister. He wouldn't Li Zhang want to use the food he sent to cook for himself, right?

"Yesterday I asked Douzi to buy some pigs into the water. If Uncle Wu doesn't dislike you, why not let Li'er cut a plate and then ask her to buy some wine. What should we talk about while eating?" Li Zhang looked at Lu Wu's surprised look, and naturally knew what he was thinking, but he pretended not to see it at this time and spoke again.

"Where do you get the money? It's okay to steal something occasionally on the street, but if you really rely on this in the future, you will be caught and broken your legs sooner or later, and I can't save you!" Lu Wu suddenly said with a deep face. He thought Li Zhang's money was stolen from the street. After all, at the age of Li Zhang and others, there is no other way to get money besides stealing.

"Uncle Wu, you misunderstood. I asked Douzi and the others to do some small business these days. Although I didn't make much money, I could at least support these dozens of mouths. What I want to negotiate is also about this small business." Li Zhang smiled again at this time. After saying that, he asked Li Er to cut a large piece of braised sausage and put it in a big sea bowl. Then Li Zhang gave her some money to make wine.

"Don't fight too much, half a pound is enough. I'll be on the job in the afternoon!" Lu Wu also showed a surprised expression when he heard Li Zhang's words, but he was still afraid that Li Zhang would spend money, so he ordered Li Er who was drinking. Li Er agreed to this, and then jumped out.

"What business can you guys do?" Lu Wu asked impatiently as soon as Li'er left.

"In fact, it's not a business. It's just picking the leftovers in the restaurant and selling them to the coolies on the dock." Li Zhang told Lu Wu about the business of the slippery basket.

There are mixed fish and dragons on the dock. Now no one is asking for trouble for Douzi and the others. But if it takes a long time, it is difficult to guarantee that something will happen. This requires the help of Lu Wu's power. Although Lu Wu is just a small team leader and his status is not as good as a minor official, Lu Wu is still very popular in Xiangfu County, especially in the area of ​​Xiangfu County, he has excellent martial arts skills and has arrested Jiangyang thieves many times and has been arrested and brought to justice. Not only in Xiangfu County, but also in Kaifeng Prefecture, it is quite famous.

"Zheluo? I didn't expect you to have this ability!" After hearing this, Lu Wu couldn't help but look at Li Zhang in surprise and said, although the business of selling leftovers is a bit unprofitable, it is almost a business without money, which is perfect for Li Zhang and his orphans who have no capital.

Li Zhang smiled slightly at this time, then took out a heavy cloth bag from behind and put it in front of Lu Wu and said, "Uncle Wu, I have always had money here, I have no other meaning. I just want you to take care of Douzi and the others in the future, so that someone will be jealous of them in the future and cause trouble for us."

"Bang! What do you mean? When will it be your turn to give me money?" Lu Wu saw that Li Zhang actually gave him money, but he slapped the table in anger and shouted. He always treated Li Zhang as his nephew, otherwise he would not have been taking care of the brother and sister. But now Li Zhang actually bribed him with money. This did not treat him as an elder, but as an outsider. This was why Lu Wu was angry.

"Uncle Wu, you misunderstood. Although you are not my uncle, our brother and sister have been taken care of by you. Moreover, my father is not at home every day. Li'er and I almost treat you as our father..."

"Then do you give me money?" Before Li Zhang finished speaking, Lu Wu slapped the table again and interrupted him. Originally, the table at Li Zhang's house was broken, and Lu Wu's hand was strong again. Now he slapped it twice, and the whole table was crooked. I guess it would be apart if I slapped it again.

"Uncle Wu, please listen to me that this money is not for you, but I want to lend your hand to the yamen runners patrolling the wharf, so that they can take care of Douzi and the others more. After all, if it can be solved with money, it is best not to owe favors to others!" Li Zhang couldn't help but smile bitterly at him and explained that Lu Wu was usually very busy and could not go to the wharf to stare at Douzi and the others in person, so he must have given it to his yamen runners. However, no matter how good Lu Wu has, it is still not as effective as money. This principle is common in any era.

When Lu Wu heard Li Zhang's words, he was stunned again. Then he looked him up and down for a few more times before speaking again: "You guys, you even understand this principle. But who did you learn these things from? You actually see the worldly ways so clearly?"

"I don't know. Even after waking up from this injury, I felt that my mind was much better. I seemed to understand things I didn't understand before all at once." Li Zhang spread his hands and made an innocent expression. The changes in his body were too big, and he couldn't hide them in front of a keen acquaintance like Lu Wu. Since that's the case, it's better to just spread them out. Anyway, no one would have thought that he was no longer Li Zhang.

"People say that if you survive a disaster, you will have good fortune in the future. It seems that it makes sense. Moreover, you have been smart since childhood. If your father can keep studying, you might be able to sing a name at Donghuamen one day, and then your Li family will be able to shine the ancestors." Lu Wu suddenly said with a pity as he looked at Li Zhang.

Li Zhang was able to read, which was one of the reasons why he became an orphan. Unfortunately, Li Zhang's father later gambled too much, and even had food at home became a problem, so naturally he had no money to let him study anymore.

While talking, Li'er also bought the wine. Lu Wu was not polite. He ate and chatted with Li Zhang with a sip of wine and a sip of braised sausage. After eating, Li Zhang pushed the copper coins to the other side again. However, Lu Wu smiled and said, "You kid are so generous. Just let the people on the dock take care of Douzi and the others. Two hundred cents are enough. You should save the remaining money. Buy more food in the future and don't let Li'er hungry!"
