The Founding of the Red Chamber

After hearing Peng Li's words, Situ San originally wanted to persuade Zhang Biao.

As soon as he arrived at Zhang Biao's house, Zhang Biao was walking around in the room. When he saw Situ San, he was very happy and greeted him, "Come on, come on, San'er, why are you here? Hurry up and talk to the elder brother! I'll be out in a while. If you don’t get the door, you’re really going to suffocate your brother to death.”

Situ San had been in business before, so he was not reckless, on the contrary, he always acted with both toughness and softness, and was considerate and considerate, so Zhang Biao valued him very much.Situ San didn't speak abruptly, and said with a smile, "Brother Biao looks very good, with joy on his brows, but what's the happy event? Let brother and elder brother be happy together."

Zhang Biao sat on the couch with Situ Sanyi, his voice lowered, "Father-in-law said that he shouldn't take sides with me in this matter, and he sent his confidant elders over yesterday, saying that he could connect us with Fu Tongzhi. Zhao Heipi and The backstage of his brother-in-law is Fu Tongzhi, to be honest, how much does Zhao Heipi give Fu Tongzhi every month? Let's grit our teeth and pay twice as much? The key is that we don't have to be angry with Zhao's bird."

Situ San responded calmly, and asked, "Master Peng, is he willing to connect with elder brother?" He moved very quickly.

Zhang Biao bared his teeth and grinned, "Father-in-law after all."

Situ Sandao said, "Brother, forgive me. Although Master Peng and Brother are Weng's close relatives, Lord Peng has helped Brother a lot. If we take care of Zhao Heipi, we must thank Master Peng. It's not about Master Peng. It’s rare for our filial piety, only in this way can Master Peng explain to the elders and brothers of the gang.”

"San'er, you want to go with me." Zhang Biao is not the first day to join the underworld, even though he only ran rampant in one county in the past, he is also a very experienced gangster leader.Now that he was in Jinling City, Zhang Biao understood the principles of dealing with people. The only thing he lacked was his sense of proportion.Zhang Biao said, "Father-in-law helps us, logically it's money or land, we can't take it all."

Situ Sandao said, "The Caobang family has a great career, so it's not like they're short of money."

Zhang Biao pressed the armrest of the couch and said in a deep voice, "Then give it the land."

"How do I give the land?" Situ San asked.

After all, Zhang Biao is someone who is used to being the boss, so he asked instead, "San'er, what do you think?"

Situ San said in a deep voice, "Brother Biao, the year we came to Jinling City is short, so basically it is always worse. Brother Biao is Master Peng's son-in-law, and even Zhao Heipi is also a member of the Cao Gang. , we are all disciples of the Cao Gang. But in fact, we are not directly under the territory of the Cao Gang. In Jinling City, besides us and Zhao Heipi, there is also Zhu Zhenning in the south of the city. Zhu Zhenning's ancestors have been in this business for generations, and his family has been rooted in Jinling City longer than Zhao Heipi's. In my opinion, if we get Zhao Heipi's territory, it's better to divide it into three. One is our own, one is for Mr. Peng, and one is for Zhu Zhenning."

Zhang Biao said coldly, "Didn't Zhu Zhenning be in vain?"

"Brother, if we kill Zhao Heipi, Zhu Zhenning will inevitably be panic-stricken. If we attack Zhu Zhenning again at this time, the movement will be so loud that the government will not be happy." Situ Sandao said, "On the contrary, if we take [-]% of Zhao Heipi's territory Give it to Zhu Zhenning, Zhu Zhenning received great benefits for nothing, don't you appreciate us? He is not as snobbish as us, when we killed Zhao Heipi, Zhu Zhenning got the benefits, how can we not respect us as the boss. So , brother, the number one seat on the Jinling City Road is considered solid."

Zhang Biao praised with a smile, "San'er, you have a quick brain."

"It's so fast, stay on the front line in everything, so we can meet each other in the future." Situ San smiled, "There is no end to killing people, our territory has expanded too fast in the past two years, I don't know how many people hate us as outsiders. Win over Zhu Zhenning, let's accumulate for a few more years, save some money, and then find other things."

Zhang Biao squeezed Situ Sanri's shoulders that were getting wider and stronger, his voice was full of appreciation, and he sighed, "Brother, my brother."

Situ San sighed, "If it wasn't for the eldest brother, the brothers still don't know whether they are dead or alive."

"Don't mention that, it will be our good days in the future, all good days."

Good day.

It's all our good days.

Situ San also sincerely looks forward to this day.

Situ San didn't persuade Zhang Biao, it was not that he didn't want to persuade him. Seeing Zhang Biao's appearance, Situ San knew that this was not a good time to persuade Zhang Biao.

Situ San also saw what collusion between officials and bandits is.

Of course, Situ San and the others have always had the way to go to the government, but at first they relied on Chen Zao, the leader of the government office, a petty official with no rank.

The Cao Gang was different. When Situ San went to Zhang Biao’s house again for such a huge monster, Zhang Biao directly invited Situ San to the inner house, and said to Peng, “Tell me, is it going well to see the little princess?”

little princess?

There is only one king of Jinling City, and that is Emperor Zhaode's uncle, the King of Jinling.

The one who can be called the little prince in Jinling must be the son of King Jinling.Then, this little princess should be a daughter-in-law of King Jinling.

Mrs. Peng smiled, "Successful. I went to the palace with my mother. It was rare that the little princess had time to see us. I didn't wait long, but we saw each other in half an hour. This little princess is quite remarkable. The master knows the origin of the little princess, that is really very noble."

Zhang Biao drank half a cup of tea, wiped his mouth, and said disapprovingly, "What is noble? No matter how noble, if you can be nobler than the descendants of dragons and phoenixes, the little prince is the real emperor."

Peng's eyebrows raised slightly, "Although she is noble, she is no more than a descendant of a dragon and a phoenix. The little princess was born in the Lin family of the Empress Dowager's natal family in the imperial capital. She is the niece of the current Empress Dowager. How noble?"

Zhang Biao smacked his lips twice, and said, "It's Cheng Engong who went to Shandong to reel the bandit, surnamed Lin. Is it his family?"

"Master has a good memory."

Zhang Biao is not as warm-hearted as Peng's. He is a gangster and has countless lives in his hands, so he is taboo against these officials.

Peng Shi smiled, "The little princess has already received the gift. Let brother go home and ask father about the letter, see if everything is in order?"

Zhang Biao smiled, "Thanks for your hard work, madam."

"Master's business is my business. It's very difficult." After giving birth to a son, Peng's temperament became more soft-spoken.I have been husband and wife with Zhang Biao for more than a year, and I can feel Zhang Biao's pulse.The corners of Peng's lips pursed into a smile, and he glanced at Situ San, "The third younger brother is also here, just to chat with your eldest brother, but he always shouts bored at home. I told them to prepare the table, the master is injured, don't worry about it." Drinking wine, give third brother a taste of the good wine that father gave me last time."

Mrs. Peng is so pleasing, Zhang Biao took advantage of it, "Thank you, Mrs., just send the banquet to my study."

Peng responded with a smile.

Situ San followed Zhang Biao to the study, and couldn't help asking, "Brother, is this young prince the son of King Jinling? I heard that something happened to the son of King Jinling in the imperial capital, and his position as the son was cut off. Another son? Where did the little prince come from?"

Zhang Biao waved his hand, "Hey, people flatter the sons of princes, they call them whatever they want. King Jinling has more than ten sons, and only one will be a prince in the future. Where did these little princes come from?"

Situ San said again, "It turns out that Master Peng followed the path of King Jinling."

Zhang Biao smiled, "Father-in-law has a donated fifth-rank official status, I'm afraid it's just for the convenience of dealing with people in the officialdom. The prefect of Jinling is changed every three years. The king of Jinling is a local snake, and the Cao Gang has such a large foundation. Take care of the palace."

"Whenever is convenient, the eldest brother will also donate an official hat, and our brothers will follow suit."

Zhang Biao laughed, "That's not a bad idea."

"San'er, let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart. This time I will focus on the top and rely on my father-in-law everywhere. I also think about when we can build these relationships by ourselves." Zhang Biao smiled and said seriously, "Go If there is no reliable relationship in the world, it always seems like there is no bottom in my heart."

Situ San sighed, "Who says it's not."

Situ San got up suddenly, turned around and opened the door of the study, and dismissed the two gatekeepers, telling them to guard the courtyard gate. Situ Sanfang turned around, walked up to Zhang Biao, and suddenly knelt down on one knee.Zhang Biao changed his color slightly, and quickly went to help Situ San's arm, saying, "Third brother, what are you doing! We brothers are not in the mood to do this! Get up!"

Situ San pressed Zhang Biao's hands, and said in a deep voice, "I've never been close to each other since we've come here, brother, I'm about to say something unpleasant."

"You can speak up if you have something to say."

Situ San's thick eyebrows were furrowed, worried, "Last time, I was able to talk to my elder brother about giving Zhu Zhenning a share of Zhao Heipi's territory. It was not just for the sake of buying Zhu Zhenning. Did elder brother ever think that the huge Jinling City, such a good location, For such a big piece of fat, the Cao Gang doesn’t even have a piece of land of its own.”

"We have to give the Cao Gang a stipend every month, which is not too thin."

"If the Cao Gang holds Jinling City in their hands, they will get more than [-]%."

Zhang Biao's face changed slightly, "Third Brother, don't say that, the Peng family is my Yue family after all."

Situ San let out a long sigh, "We don't have a deep friendship with the government. If we kill Zhao Heipi and the Cao gang will eat the gangsters, it's just a thought. Peng Li told me that we must be prepared to flee to Jinling City. I don't understand why, so I can only come to persuade elder brother. Eldest brother and Peng Li are close relatives, so you might as well listen to what Peng Li said. We haven't done anything yet, and there is room for maneuver in everything."

Zhang Biao's complexion was extremely bad. He bent down, supported Situ San with both hands, and said, "The third brother is doing it for my own good, I know. Peng Li would never tell me this, only the third brother is willing to tell me." gone."

Situ San's eyes were slightly hot, and there was a flash of wetness, and he choked up, "Brother, don't say that, we brothers have died for friendship, life is so difficult now, who can understand better than us."

Zhang Biao sighed, "Yes..."
