Chapter 79 Teenage Ninja Turtles Cai Laowu
  Everyone in the hall was stunned. After a while, someone asked: "Zhiyuan, it is certainly a good thing to collect this money, but how to collect it?"

Zhang Zeduan said calmly: "Don't you need to pay for these restaurants, gambling houses, hooks and tiles? No, they are all paid, but they are given to different gangs, Wuyou Gang, no, Wuyou Gang is no longer there Now, it’s the Wuhe Gang, as well as the Sangjia Gang, Tianbo Gang, and Dailou Gang.
  Straight women are thieves, we are officials, these bastards are thieves, and they actually collect more than us. Where is the official power of the Song Dynasty! "

Zhang Zeduan glanced at everyone and continued: "A friend of mine once said that the official law is like a furnace. That's very good, very right!

Aren’t these gangs clamoring for their strength? We have to let them know what it means to have official laws like a furnace! In addition, we have reached a strategic partnership with the Wuhe Gang."

What the hell kind of strategic partnership?

"In the current territory of the Wuhe Gang, they are willing to offer 30% of the regular money, and then actively cooperate with us to carry out public security, sanitation and firefighting work. As for other gangs that are not long-sighted, the Military Patrol Yuan must attack them hard and capture all the core personnel. Review and reflect carefully.

The Wuhe Gang then eliminates these gangs one by one, seizes the places where they are entrenched, and cooperates with the Military Inspectorate to make corrections and return a clean, safe, and peaceful environment to the people. And the standard money in these places is 50-50 for each family. "

Everyone was confused by the previous words, but when they heard the last sentence, it was 50-50 between the two families, they all became excited.

Everyone present is not a fool. They know that the most prosperous and profitable places in Kaifeng City are these restaurants, gambling houses, brothels and Goulan Houses that offer food, drink and entertainment. The money received from them is more than ten times the sum of other places.

If Zhang Zeduan had the ability to collect even half of it, everyone's income would increase dramatically.

So everyone was full of energy, raised their hands and said in unison: "We all follow the leadership of the Academy! We will obey orders!"

After arranging everything, Zhang Zeduan walked to the corridor with his coat in hand, waved his hand, and motioned Liu Guozhang to sit in the signing room at the back.

Zhang Zeduan stood at the door and shouted outside, "Who cares, give me two bowls of tea."

He turned around and came in, pointed at the seat and said: "Erlang, sit down, you're welcome. It's much more comfortable here in the Military Patrol Courtyard. It's better than being poor and polite in the Hanlin Academy."

The two laughed.

A servant came in with two cups of tea and placed them next to the two of them.

"Brother Zhengdao, the morale of the Military Patrol Court is high now, and the military morale is available!" Liu Guozhang said with a smile.

"It's all because of your good military advisor! Erlang, what you said makes sense. Regardless of the myriad of things, a money bag or an official hat, grasp these two lines and everything will be clear. I still care about the official hat. If you don’t arrive, grab your money bag and hold on tight.”

"Brother is learning and applying it. I just mentioned a few words, and he was able to do it with ease."

The Military Inspectorate is an important institution and must be tightened up.

It is not convenient for me to come forward now, so I can only help Zhang Zeduan with suggestions, let him firmly grasp the power of the Military Inspectorate, and then install Yang Xiaojie, Di Wanren and other backbones of Huarang to grasp the real power.

"You're being humble, Erlang is too modest. Did you just say a few words? You taught me step by step. Standardizing the system and collecting money uniformly is a wonderful move. It not only holds the money in your hands, but also allows the military inspectors to Everyone is dedicated to doing the right thing."

"Brother, if the regulations are standardized and the order is orderly, the majority of people will benefit; if there is chaos and disorder, the few will benefit. Therefore, what treacherous people love to do most is to break the regulations and disrupt the order."

Zhang Zeduan's eyes lit up, he stared at Liu Guozhang and said, "I said that the beauty in Erlang's heart is extraordinary. Deyuan and Boji just don't believe it. Scholars look down on each other and think of themselves as extraordinary."

"The ambition is high but the power is low. That's why we do too much but fail to achieve real results. We can only talk about it."

Zhang Zeduan couldn't help but laugh, pointed at Liu Guozhang and said, "You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you will never be famous in Donghuamen in this life."

"Haha, who cares? They take the things they brought out by themselves seriously."

Zhang Zeduan looked at Liu Guozhang, and the smile on his face slowly disappeared.

"Erlang, don't talk about these things anymore. Why did you come to see me today?"

"I would like to ask Brother Zhengdao to use his wonderful pen to draw two paintings for me."

"Two paintings, what paintings?"

"I have designed two pieces of clothing, which are unique and unique, and I want to present them to Master Houde and Master Lingguang. But Erlang, I have one thing in my mind and another in writing. I have no choice but to ask Brother Zhengdao to help."

"The clothes picture is dedicated to the Master of Houde Palace and the Master of Lingguang Academy?" The expression on Zhang Zeduan's face was very strange. He couldn't tell whether it was surprise, admiration, or curiosity.

"Yes, yes. Brother Zhengdao is a member of the Hanlin Painting Academy, so these two paintings must be readily available."

Zhang Zeduan's face changed a few times, and he suddenly raised his hands and said: "I just remembered that Li Boji called me for something and asked me to go to the left hall of Kaifeng Mansion. He is now my boss, and he must be looking for me in a hurry. He must have something important.

I'll take the first step, and Erlang will go on his own after drinking tea. ” ˆ ˆ ˆ Without any explanation, he turned around and left, shouting outside: “So and so, so and so, hurry up and prepare a sedan for me!” "

"Dashengfang, two thousand guan! You pay five for one. You don't have to pay a penny of your capital. You get 10,000 guan for free! Someone got this incredible advantage and turned their backs and refused to recognize anyone! Oh, you are a white-eyed wolf, the Military Patrol Court has Just a white-eyed wolf!"

Liu Guozhang was talking strangely in the room. Zhang Zeduan just stepped out of the threshold and took his foot back abruptly. He turned around and looked at Liu Guozhang with a sad look on his face.

"I knew that it would be hard to get this ten thousand yuan! It's not easy to get it! It's all my fault for being greedy. I couldn't hold it back for a moment and took the ten thousand yuan. Now, I'll sell it to you!"

"Brother, you're just painting two paintings, why are you looking so gloomy?"

"Brother, I am in the Hanlin Academy of Painting and I am waiting for an imperial edict. I will be admitted to the bachelor's degree next year, but I have to help you draw women's clothes. It's very embarrassing to tell anyone. The most important thing is that the retouching fee will drop in price in the future."

"Tch! It sounds like you have never painted a painting of a beautiful lady."

Zhang Zeduan became anxious, straightened his neck and said: "Is this the same? Can this be the same? The painting of beautiful women depends on God, and the key to helping you draw women's clothing lies in the body shape. If the body shape is not drawn well, the clothes will not fit when they are made. .”

Liu Guozhang squinted his eyes and stared at Zhang Zeduan, "In this case, my brother has painted before, so he understands the key points."

Zhang Zeduan laughed and replied: "In the eyes of the painter, the divine form, appearance and body shape are all integrated into one, and they are indistinguishable."

Liu Guozhang chuckled and said, "Sure enough, nine out of ten people who engage in painting, music and other arts are hooligans."

Zhang Zeduan's eyes widened, "What are you talking about? Isn't there another one? He must be the same!"

In the study of Zhileju in Taishifang, Cai Tiao sat on his chair glumly, looking around and feeling restless.

Cai Jing put down his writing brush and took a look at what he had written: "Be kind and generous."

He took a long breath, washed his hands, and slowly walked to the side and sat down.

"Fifth brother, Houde Palace, you haven't been there for a long time?"

"Dad, what the Houde Palace enshrines is the "Emperor of the Earth" who was enshrined by the official to follow the example of Houde and Guangdong. She is the Earth Mother, the Empress of the Earth. As a man, why should I go there to worship?"

Cai Wei argued.

"The Lingguang Temple is dedicated to the Southern Suzaku, the Lord of Lingguang, and even to the Nu Guan Taoist Temple. You have to go there several times a month, and every time you get a bad taste, it's like drinking sweet wine. Fifth brother, this is another time. Why?"

Cai Chi's face turned red and he continued to argue: "The fortune teller said that my son lacks fire in the five elements, and the Suzaku enshrined in Lingguang Temple is the answer to this deficiency."

Cai Jing shook his head: "Fifth brother, don't have such wishful thinking. You will never be able to do that at Lingguangyuan!"

Cai Wei's face instantly turned pale. After a while, he raised his head and said with a sad smile: "Dad wants me to marry Emperor Kangfu, why bother? Don't you love the fourth child the most? Give it to him, let him be the prince's consort. ah!"

Cai Jing looked at Cai Ji with love in his cloudy eyes.

"The eldest brother and the third brother have already established their own business, so I'm not worried. What I'm worried about is you and the seventh brother. The seventh brother is still young, so we can take a long-term view. You, my fifth brother, are pretentious, but have high ambitions and low abilities.

After much deliberation, my father decided to let you become the prince's consort, which would ensure your prosperity and wealth for the rest of your life. "

Cai Chi's eyes slowly turned red, and he shouted hoarsely: "Guaranteeing my wealth for the rest of my life, after all, you just think that I am not as good as fourth brother. How am I not as good as him?"

Cai Jing stared at Cai Ji with sinister eyes.

"Fourth brother has set up a clever plan, and now he is waiting for Liu Erlang to fall into the urn. Fifth brother, just watch and see how fourth brother's plan is superior to yours! Once you see it clearly, I promise to be my father and do it honestly. Go to your consort!"

Cai Ji stared at Cai Jing, his teeth gritted and his fists clenched, as if a volcano would erupt in the next breath.

Cai Jing was not alarmed at all. He picked up the tea cup and took a few sips calmly.

Several dozen breaths passed, and although Cai Ji was furious, he still kept it in his heart.

Cai Jing leaned back, closed his eyes slightly, and let out a long sigh, feeling indescribable disappointment and desolation.
