Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 252 Achieving a Small Goal First!

He Guan's son-in-law, surnamed Zhang Mingcheng, is the son of Zhang Xian of the Western Army and nephew of Zhang Da.When He Guan was in the northwest, he had a close relationship with the Zhang family brothers, and Zhang Xian died in a fierce battle with Xixia under his command, so the two families had this kind of marriage.

It's just that Zhang Cheng is far inferior to his father's bravery and talents. He Guan has taken care of him all these years, and now he is only serving as a superintendent in the infantry department.It's as if there is an old man who is a high-ranking official to support him, but he himself is useless. After so many years of climbing, he is only a battalion-level general.

Now that Lao Taishan was demoted to Yongzhou, Zhang Cheng felt bitter.

That day, he was drinking at home when he suddenly heard a call at the door from outside.Zhang Cheng did not dare to stay in the room steadily, so he asked the servant to go out to meet him, then he arranged his clothes briefly and came out.I saw a man carrying a big box and asked, "Are you Zhang Tiha's family here?"

Zhang Cheng looked this man up and down, but he was from an ordinary Beijing family, with a smell of Tokyo city about him.He replied, "No, it's Zhang Cheng." The man kept picking people in.Zhang Cheng asked: "Where did you come from?"

The Han replied: "The villain was ordered by Li Guanren to teach me to pick here." Zhang Cheng saw that the box was full of chicken, goose, fish, fruit, wine and delicacies, and was about to ask again when he saw a vegetarian. An unknown official came in and said to the man, "Just pick it in."

Zhang Cheng saw the gift and said: "What's the point? I have never met, but I want an official to give me a banquet!"

The man said: "Xiao Ke Li Jin, a native of Minzhou, my late father Ying Xihuang had no archers in his early years, and he was able to enter the official career after several times of military exploits. This is all due to the kindness of old parents. I just don't want to play tricks on people." , called Taiwei to suffer this catastrophe and be demoted to Yongzhou." Li Jin's words were very simple and clear, he came to Tokyo City to do business.His family is also an official, and they have made a fortune, with assets and connections.Li Jin transported the specialty products of the Northwest to Tokyo. Although the journey was a bit more difficult, he earned more.Previously, He Guan was proud of his official career, but he was Du Yuhou, the No. [-] figure in the bodyguard and infantry division, and the threshold was too high for Li Jin to cling to.But now that He Guan is in trouble, let alone clinging.Li Jin came here to comfort Zhang Cheng, not everyone has no conscience, if it is useful in the future, just ask someone to go to his residence in the capital to say hello, and see if he dares to do his best?
The presents presented by Li Jin's followers included ten altars of fine wine, ten bolts of brocade and colored silk, ten pieces of high-quality leather, and ten ingots of shining silver.The gift is not ordinary, at least for Zhang Cheng now.

Zhang Cheng was very grateful to let Li Jin into the room. After drinking five or seven glasses of wine, he saw a few more men coming to the door with large boxes of jars and drinks. This was for the servants of Zhang Cheng's house to benefit of. (I didn’t write enough [-] words, but I ran out of time)
"Why don't you just ask my virtuous brother for bad money!" Zhang Cheng was very shameless, and he was quite embarrassed when he saw it.

Li Jin said: "What's this worth? I'm going to have a drink with Tiju today, don't think it's a trivial matter."

"It's so hard to suffer." Zhang Cheng evaded it on the face, but he enjoyed this kind of flattery in his heart.Since his old Taishan was demoted, Zhang Cheng's status in Tokyo has plummeted.There was no He Guan standing behind him, and when he mentioned it a little, was he considered a bird in Tokyo?Li Jin's actions now only made him 'fall in love' with him in an instant.

The only fly in the ointment is that this fellow is still timid, and he is not invited to go to the fan building to play, but to stay at this home.

In winter, when it is dark and early, the candles are lit, and the wine is enjoyable.After drinking until the beginning of the weather, Zhang Cheng said, "I'm drunk, and my virtuous brother won't have to prepare the horse again, so I will rest here." Li Jin agreed.He was helped down by the servants of Zhang's mansion to rest, but he was still in good spirits, so it was already the second watch to talk about it.Li Jin was going to sleep, so she said to the servants in that mansion: "I still have a bottle of good wine here. I kept it for drinking, but I forgot it when I didn't want to eat it. Please come and taste it first, and give us an evaluation." After that, he took out a porcelain gourd from a package as soon as he followed, and he just uncorked the wine, and the room was filled with the aroma of wine.When it was hot, I took the wine cup and filled it up, and I saw that the wine liquid was as clear as clear water, exuding a strong aroma of wine.Several servants of the Zhang family smiled happily, they all thought the wine was extraordinary, they took it up and drank it all in one gulp, the spicy wine entered the mouth, like a fire dragon rushing straight at their confidants.

Such distilled liquor is extremely rare in Tokyo today.At least it is not a Datong commodity. The Northern Song Dynasty implemented the wine-dispensing system, that is, the government monopolizes it.As early as the early Song Dynasty, Tian Xi’s "Qu Materia Medica" recorded that "Siamese wine is re-fired twice with shochu... those who can drink it will be drunk after three or four cups, and the value is dozens of times higher than usual."This is obviously distilled spirits.They have been around for at least a hundred years, but this does not mean that there were commercial distilled liquor sales in the Song Dynasty market.

Naturally, most of the servants in Zhang's mansion had seen the world, but few of them were lucky enough to have had shochu. After drinking it, they even praised: "Good wine, really powerful, you will definitely get drunk if you eat two more glasses."

But after talking like this, no one had any reason to eat two bites less.

Not long after, Li Jin clapped his hands and shouted: "Yes, yes!" The few people were already drooling and lying down staggeringly.Li Jin laughed and said, "It's so easy to make money, let's call Zhang Cheng to die!" Turning his head, he saw that the servants had drawn out their wrist knives and rushed to kill these servants.Li Jin hurriedly stopped and said: "Slow down, listen to me. Liang Shanbo has never harmed innocent people. These people are just slaves and servants in Zhang's family. What are they doing for the revenge of the leader? But they must not do anything."

This Li Jin is not Li Jin, but Yang Zhi's servant who was recruited from his hometown in Kansai after he joined Liang Shanbo.He knew the geographical advantages and human relationships in Kansai very well, so Zhang Cheng didn't have the slightest suspicion.Naturally, the attendants agreed, and they started together to tie up all the servants and tie them tightly. "Li Jin" made another five hemp walnuts, stuffed them in everyone's mouths, and tied them behind the head with a rope to prevent him from spitting them out.Take out another letter that has been prepared a long time ago and put it beside the servant.These people don't know anything about each other, just like playing with dead bodies.

Zhang Cheng is just a nominee, how much money can he have?

He Guan had committed the crime, and had already ordered Zhang Cheng to release his servants. From now on, he would keep a low profile, work in peace, and wait for him to make a comeback.Therefore, only these few servants are free in this mansion.

"Li Jin" and his entourage first went to the wall of Zhang's mansion to send out a signal, and immediately the crow sounded outside. Li Jin and his entourage responded, and Zhang San and others easily entered the courtyard.Looking at that face, isn't it the man who was carrying a big box carrying a load at the beginning?

Without those male servants getting in the way, Zhang San led the crowd to easily control the entire Zhang Mansion.Zhang Cheng was born as a general's son, even if he is not skilled in martial arts, he can easily beat three or five strong men, but unfortunately he sleeps heavier than a dead pig.The daughter of Zhang He's general, but she doesn't know a thing about knives and bows, and she is ready to die.

None of the maids and wives in the house were killed. Anyway, "Li Jin" and others would all leave Tokyo early tomorrow morning.

But Zhang Cheng and his wife did not spare any of them.Who told He Guan to make Ling Zhenyi's family suffer so miserably?
