Chapter 60 Gao Qiu: If I don’t change the chamber pot, someone else will!
  As soon as he returned to the mansion, Gao Qiu ordered: "Mr. Gao."

"Lang Jun, the young one is here."

"Invite the second officer and the third officer. Quick!"

"Yes."

Gao Qiurong sat in the study, silent for half an hour, until someone knocked on the door.

"Mr. Lang, the second and third officials are here."

"please come in."

Gao Shen walked in first and shouted loudly.

"Brother, what's the matter?"

He had just been promoted to a bachelor of Xuanhe Hall, and he was very high-spirited.

Gao Jie followed in.

He held the post of General Jinwuwei and helped manage the Gao family's property on weekdays. Of course, they are all serious business industries. He rarely interferes with the Wuyou Gang's affairs.

"Sit." Gao Qiu pointed to the seat next to the table.

Gao Shen and Gao Jie looked at each other and sat down.

The Gao family prospered because of Gao Qiu, the eldest brother among the three brothers, he could be said to be the most powerful person in the family.

"Emperor Shuming called me today."

"What's the matter with this big brother? Could it be that her Suzaku Guard has caused trouble?" Gao Jie was shocked.

Gao Shen shook his head.

"This Di Ji is the smartest. She knows how to advance and retreat. She focuses on business and financial management. She has a rich family. The Suzaku Guard is just her female crown game. It is said that Potian is also her female guard. She only goes out to ride and hunt on weekdays. She never Publicity.

Besides, she has a special status, who dares to provoke her? "

"She introduced me to Liu Erlang."

"Liu Erlang?" Gao Jie asked in surprise, "The Liu Erlang who made Cai Laowu disgraced in Yujinyuan?"

"it's him."

"Ah, I didn't expect that Liu Erlang was actually from Lingguang Academy." Gao Jie shook his head in disbelief.

"What can't be expected? This person from Lingguangyuan has been fond of martial arts since he was a child. He has close contacts with Chang Guanghui, Feiwei Society, and Zhengweixing. It's not surprising that he recruited Liu Erlang." Gao Shen said.

"No, Liu Erlang came to Tokyo from Mingzhou just last month to worship his ancestors and find relatives." Gao Qiu said calmly.

"Ah, how does eldest brother know?" Gao Jie asked.

"He said it himself."

"Brother, do you believe what he said?" Gao Jie shook his head.

"Third brother, Liu Erlang has suddenly risen to fame in Tokyo. Do you think no one will check his background?" Gao Shen asked.

Gao Jie remained silent.

Gao Qiu said: "I have checked, the Taishi Mansion has checked, and the Imperial City Department has also checked. The results are the same as what he said."

Now it was Gao Shen's turn to wonder, "Is it really from Mingzhou? I believe that there are pirate giants in that place, and there is a man like Liu Erlang who can ride and ejaculate. How is it possible?"

"Liu Erlang said it himself. Since he was a child, he followed his elders to go to sea for business, mostly traveling to the Northeast and Goryeo. There were many Tatars in that place. In order to protect himself, he trained hard with the masters there. In addition, he has extraordinary talents. This achievement.”

Gao Shen nodded: "That makes sense. Looking at his head and figure, he is indeed gifted. If he can find a master to teach him carefully in Mobei, the northeast, he can really develop his skills."

Gao Qiu glanced at his brother and stopped talking about this topic, but returned to the topic, "You don't want to know what Liu Erlang said to me?"

"What did you say?"

Gao Qiu recounted what Renhe had said in the private room of the restaurant.

Gao Shen and Gao Jie remained silent.

After a while, Gao Shen spoke: "What Liu Erlang said makes some sense. The Wuyou Gang has indeed made a lot of money for our Gao family in the past ten years, but it has been unscrupulous and caused a lot of public resentment in and outside Tokyo. , it accumulates over time, and the stench becomes unbearable.”

Gao Jie shook his head carelessly: "Those nonsense words, what are you afraid of! What can they do to us?!" "Confused!" Gao Shen scolded, "The people's resentment has been deep, and the officials want face. Even the Grand Master is a little shy. Ups and downs, just to stop the world's people from talking about Youyou, not to mention that the eldest brother is just the prefect of the palace!

Liu Erlang is right. Why is the eldest brother so favored by the Holy Spirit? First, he is an old friend of Qiandi, and second, except for a few servants who are close to each other, he never forms any clique. Now Cai Laowu has the Wuyou Gang under his command, but everyone in Kaifeng City doesn't know that the Wuyou Gang is the Gao family's dog.

What do the Cai family and the Gao family want to do?
  Third child, God’s will is unpredictable! Once suspicion arises, the official's trust in the eldest brother is like a long embankment that collapses in an ant nest. "

Gao Jie stopped talking, remained silent for a while, and then said: "Brother, what do you think we should do?"

"Give up part of the business. This is the list I drew up. Take a look." Gao Qiu pushed over a piece of paper.

Gao Jie took it and took a look, "So many foot shops, boat shops, and car shops have to be moved out? Restaurants, what! Yuxian Restaurant must also be moved out? No, no! This is our cornucopia!"

Gao Qiu remained silent and called out to the door, "Pharmacist!"

"Little is here!"

"Bring in the gift from Emperor Shuming."

"Yes."

Pharmacist Gao brought in a wooden box, placed it on the table, and quickly exited.

Gao Qiu opened the lid of the wooden box, Gao Shen and Gao Jie raised their buttocks, bent their waists, and stretched their heads to take a look.

"Bow and crossbow?"

"This is the divine arm bow!" Gao Qiu said.

"so what?"

"The sacred arm bow, a heavy weapon in the army, suddenly appeared in the city of Kaifeng. The news spread. Can the officials, grand masters, ministers, ministers, internal ministers, and many dignitaries sleep? Is it possible to call them? Wearing heavy armor when going in and out?”

Gao Shen and Gao Jie heard the meaning of Gao Qiu's words, and their expressions changed greatly.

"What if someone uses this divine arm bow to shoot an arrow at Grandmaster Cai's sedan chair when he returns home? Or, if an official goes to Qianqian Lane incognito for a private visit,"

Gao Shen and Gao Jie broke out in cold sweat, "How dare you, thief!"

"There are a lot of crazy people in the world! In the end, God's will was angry, and I, the chief lieutenant in charge of the safety of the capital, was the first to bear the thunder."

Gao Shen stammered and asked: "Then, what should we do?"

Gao Qiu said sternly: "I will go to the hall tomorrow and call the commanders of each army and battalion, as well as the military inspectors of the military inspection institute, and tell them to take action! Set up checkpoints to guard the gates, search the whole city, and make arrests. If one of the spies and murderers is found out, he will be rewarded with fifty guan. If he finds out a strong crossbow, he will be rewarded with 100 guan.
  Third child, you prepare according to the list I made and hand it over at any time. I have arranged for someone to secretly call Wang Muwen over. "

"Brother, are you ready to change generals?"

"I'm going to change my bastard general to a chamber pot that doesn't stink so much!"

In the room in the backyard of Lingguang Yuan, Murong Shisan stared at Liu Guozhang, "How dare you speak like a lion!"

"Housemaster, what are you afraid of? Asking for prices all over the sky and bargaining on the ground. Just a Divine Arm Bow is worth a Yuxian Restaurant."

"That's right, is there anything Liu Erlang dare not do in this world? To annoy you, hold the divine arm bow, and shoot an arrow when Taishi Cai returns home, or when the official family goes on an outing. Taiwei Gao's body is covered with mouths, I can’t tell clearly.”

"The master of the hospital thinks too badly of me.

To be honest, how could I dare to do such a thing unless absolutely necessary? Once you do this, you will completely fall out and offend too many people. Can't do it, really can't do it. "

Murong Shisan smiled faintly, "It's just that I can't do it, it's not that I dare not do it. Liu Erlang, you have stolen so many properties from Gao Qiu, what do you want to do?"

"With the Wuyou Gang reaching the point where it is today, there is no longer any need to exist. In the Wuyou Gang, there are evil people who do evil things, and there are also ordinary people who are just making a living. After getting rid of the evil people, the ordinary people who make up the majority must have something to support their families. There are connections. There are also brothers from Changxing, Feiwei and Zhengwei. We must find a way for them to make a living."

"Do you want to take over part of the Wuyou Gang?"

"After that night, I swore that no one would ever drive me like a dog with a divine arm bow in my life! So I need friends, manpower, and power. Let's create some great achievements together. .”

"Liu Erlang is really ambitious."

"A true man must of course have great ambitions, make achievements, and be famous for generations to come."

"Famous for eternity? You can learn from Huan Wen, but if you can't be famous for eternity, you will still be infamy for eternity!"

"No, no, although I am passionate about fame and covet wealth," Liu Guozhang raised his injured right hand and pointed at his heart, "the conscience in my heart prevents me from doing something that will be infamy for thousands of years."

"Conscience!" Murong Shisan looked at Liu Guozhang and murmured.
