Straight man of steel

Chapter 48 It's Seen Clearly (Please recommend a ticket)

"Forget it, Wenjun, let's go."

Zhuo Wangsun suddenly turned his head and said to Zhuo Wenjun.

Zhuo Wenjun looked at Zhuo Wangsun with disbelief. In her impression, her father had never been subdued.

While Zhuo Wenjun was in a daze, Zhuo Wangsun took her arm and walked outside.

When approaching the door, Zhang Yuan yelled at Zhuo Wangsun.

"Patriarch, I will send a few people to accompany you back to the manor to collect the gold."

With a thud, Zhuo Wangsun's foot on the steps suddenly missed, and he almost didn't fall.

Zhuo Wenjun regained his composure, and immediately supported Zhuo Wangsun and walked slowly out. When he went out, he gave Zhang Yuan a vicious look.

After the two outsiders surnamed Zhuo left, the carpenter Uncle Zhao knelt down in front of Zhang Yuan.

"Young master, you don't have to stand up for the villain like this. What if the owner of the house thinks it will be bad for you?"

Zhang Yuan stepped forward to help Uncle Zhao up, and said with a relaxed expression.

"It's nothing, there is a noble person in Chang'an who owes me a little favor, Zhuo Wangsun dare not do anything to me.

On the contrary, if you go to the Zhuo Mansion, you don't know what kind of means he will use to pull out everything that happened at home during this period. "

The worries Zhang Yuan mentioned may be unnecessary, but saying it now will make Uncle Zhao feel even more grateful to him.

The noise of the quarrel in the yard was so loud that other people in the room could also hear it. Zhang Yuan just wanted to make them feel that he could support them.

On Zhuo Wangsun's carriage, Zhuo Wenjun kicked the swords angrily, and complained to Zhuo Wangsun.

"Father, are you giving Zhang Yuan too much face?"

Zhuo Wangsun looked at Zhuo Wenjun holding back for a long time, finally couldn't hold it anymore, and laughed out loud.

"Haha, you finally figured it out. You are so familiar with Zhang Yuan, don't you realize that he is too different today than usual? In the eyes of the old man, he is still too immature."

Zhuo Wenjun asked suspiciously
"Why did father say that? Although Zhang Yuan is a bit abnormal today, he is too disrespectful to you, father. You should make him suffer."

Zhuo Wangsun said firmly.

"He did it on purpose."

"on purpose?"

Twirling his beard, Zhuo Wangsun narrowed his eyes and continued to answer Zhuo Wenjun's doubts.

"He could have given us the drawings directly, but he insisted on bringing us here just for acting.

Play it for the craftsmen and handymen under him. "

Zhuo Wenjun didn't expect Zhang Yuan to be acting.

"acting?"

"Yes, acting.

Some tricks to buy people's hearts were used by my father when he was young. "

Zhuo Wangsun was very satisfied that Zhang Yuan could use such a method, but the more he said, the more doubts Zhuo Wenjun had.

"Then why did he resign as a retainer? If you were to argue with your father as a retainer of the Zhuo Mansion, wouldn't it be easier to gain the loyalty of those craftsmen?"

"Resigning as a retainer is another purpose of his, so that it will not be as easy for us to benefit from him in the future.

In other words, Zhang Yuan felt that the techniques and equipment he had donated were enough to repay his kindness, so he wanted to cut ties with us. "

"Understood, I thought Zhang Yuan was very thoughtful before, but I didn't expect him to exceed my expectations."

"It's nothing, Zhang Yuan should have a deeper purpose in buying people's hearts and resigning his retainers, those craftsmen and handymen should know some secrets.

Otherwise, Zhang Yuan would not have risked offending his father to stand up for the carpenter. "

"What purpose can there be?"

Zhuo Wangsun glanced at the five swords placed on the carriage, kicked them too, then stopped talking, closed his eyes and meditated.

Is there something weird about these swords?
Zhuo Wenjun picked up a long sword and took it out for a closer look. She could only feel the sharpness of the steel sword and the sheath of the scabbard. As for what secrets were hidden underneath, she really couldn't see it.

As for Zhuo Wangsun, he was just guessing, otherwise he wouldn't have said that he would keep half of his daughter.

It's a pity that Zhang Yuan didn't hear these conversations, otherwise his heart would have contracted.

Then I will go to ask for the [-] gold, and I guess I will choose to pack up and stay away from Zhuo Wangsun, from Linqiong, no, the farther away from Shu County the better.

It was already time for dinner. Zhang Yuan was so happy today that he asked Chef Wang to cook two tables full of dishes, and then he did not eat separately from Uncle Zhao and the others, but put the two tables together.

There are five wooden boxes placed in the vacant space.

The box was brought by Xiong Da and the others from the Zhuo Mansion, and it contained the 1 taels of gold that Zhuo Wangsun promised Zhang Yuan.

Everyone is very excited now. According to common sense, Zhang Yuan will start sending money at this time.

As everyone expected, Xiao Qing opened one of the boxes and began to distribute money to the twelve rough men present besides Zhang Yuan and himself.

The bounty promised to Uncle Zhao before was also made up this time.

Uncle Zhao 50 taels of gold, and the rest of the people are [-] taels each.

A gold pancake is enough for an ordinary family to spend for a year. These artisans eat and wear Zhang Yuan's and wear Zhang Yuan's. They can easily earn the money of other people's family for a year in a month. How could they be willing to leave here.

"Everyone, I gave you all the money, and you have seen what happened during the day.

If the matter of steelmaking is leaked out, I have nothing to say. This ten thousand taels of gold is enough for my life, Zhang Yuan.

But you are different, with Zhuo Wangsun's attitude today, he will take everything you do for granted. My son, I will not stay in Linqiong for too long. When I am about to leave, I will take you all away and find you again. A safe and peaceful place to live. "

"Sir, no matter where you go, we will follow you."

"Yes, we all follow."

The one who took the lead in shouting must be Uncle Zhao, who was blessed by Zhang Yuan today, and the others followed suit.

Zhang Yuan quickly waved his hand, shouting so loudly that passers-by outside thought he was going to rebel.

"Okay, okay, today I'm going to tell you the truth, if you don't want to give up, I will naturally not drive you away.

All have a good meal. "

Zhang Yuan did not see the effect of the order and prohibition in the army, but saw it in his own house.

His words seemed to be the highest order. As soon as his voice fell, no one spoke, and everyone buried their heads in their meals. ,
