The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

Everyone was talking about the quality complaint of Meteor [-], when Yang Song suddenly said Yang Anlai.Jia Cong hurriedly asked, "How is An'er?"

Yang Song said: "The one who can break a good gun must be one of our own. Who else but An'er."

Wu Xiaoxi immediately said: "The Malay country uses this kind of gun a lot, and An'er is the most familiar."

Yang Song snorted and said, "He with white eyebrows and red eyes left all his companions behind, how can there be no reason? It's not sure who to fool."

Jia Cong immediately said: "Contact him! Once the soldiers fight with the civilians, they will be massacred, not to mention they still have firearms."

Yang Song said, "I can't get in touch." He looked at Ge Qiao, "Does the shipyard have any clues?"

Ge Qiao thought to himself, "I know shopkeeper Wu is going to leave today, so I was anxious to come over to find her to identify the gun, but I didn't check it carefully. I'll go back and search the shipyard from the beginning."

Jia Cong raised his right hand: "Don't worry, let's take a look at the clues. It is known that the guns of the robbers are all Meteor [-], and none of them can fire bullets. It is the same as the problem complained by the four countries. This model has just been launched recently. All the guns sent out by Gu Ji are good guns. It can be basically judged that the four countries are a group, and for some reason, they arranged for the robbers to carry out terrorist attacks against civilians in Tianjin. However, they failed, and it is most likely that An Er was doing something wrong. .According to the investigation in the early months, An'er's disappearance should be active, not passive. He and the little sage who disappeared almost at the same time are likely related to a fellow Guo who just came back from the south, who may be a eunuch, and a Together with Monk Jianru, who left Beijing at the same time as all the kings, and just returned from his travels recently. Judging from the time, these two should be in the same group. They left Beijing at the same time and returned to Beijing at the same time, and they are probably the subordinates of a certain prince. I tend to think that the one with the surname Guo is really an eunuch. Then, the little sage has a higher probability of being deceived and coerced. Now I speculate that the other party is: Jin Qi Chen Song Siguo, Guo buddy, Jianru monk, and the little sage. Aner is mixed The undercover agent is doing sabotage. So, how did An'er get in."

Feng Ziying said: "The day An'er injured Liu's brother, the surname Guo didn't go to the Empress Dowager."

Jia Cong said "Yes": "But he saw An'er hurt Tong'er; he also heard that he was retaliated by a relative of Qin Keqing's subordinates, a certain imperial forest army, and beat him more than ten times. He came from Nanyang. There is no connection. Martial arts are high-strength, know firearms, and the character is not bad. I know that I live in someone's house and I want to give gifts to express my gratitude."

Lin Daiyu added with a smile: "And it's not very popular, I don't know that it's not suitable for a male guest to give the hostess makeup."

Jia Cong went on to say: "Casual and generous. Such an expensive makeup fan gave fans at will. He is indeed a talent that can be won. He has a strong comprehensive ability and is very easy to be reused after displaying. So he can get in touch with all guns and guns by the way. The double trick is completely predictable. After all, we are the strong side and they are the weak side, so it is not easy to find talents."

Zhan Kun thought: "If the other party has a monk who usually eats fast and recites scriptures, it is not surprising why Qin Niang in Huancai Pavilion was not silenced. After so many years of chanting, he can read a little bit of it, and if he can not kill, he will not kill. .”

Jia Cong nodded: "From leaving Huancai Pavilion to handing He Xiaonan a gun and a dagger, An'er must have been recruited by the enemy. And he still has time to buy snacks and hide guys, so we know he has a relatively high degree of freedom The other side shows that the opponent is short of manpower and cannot stare at him. The four countries all responded that the quality of the guns is problematic, so it can be seen that Aner has the conditions to tamper with the guns and guns of all the four countries. The probability of the guns being concentrated in one place is the greatest."

Zhan Kun said: "He can go to all four countries, the distance is not too far."

Jia Cong said: "It's been more than three months. He should have many ways to contact us, but he didn't. On the one hand, he is used to being independent, and on the other hand, he is confident that he can solve the matter by himself. If Scattered in Shikoku, it is difficult for him to control the situation. Especially the muskets and guns of Shikoku can sometimes fire bullets, and sometimes they can’t. The engineer is good when he looks at it, but it doesn’t work when he turns back. He is before the engineer arrives Make the gun good, and he will break it after the other party leaves. He has to touch all the guns frequently to do it. Also, the opponent must have no experts, otherwise he can be exposed on the spot. Everyone in the four countries has bought fire. Guns, right? Creek?"

Wu Xiaoxi nodded: "Even Song State has bought guns for many years. All countries have experts."

Jia Cong snapped his fingers: "Don't worry. The four countries have no sincerity to form an alliance. No one is willing to take out even a gun expert. So why are they abducting the little saint? Ordinary people may take the little saint seriously. , these lords don’t know. I’m afraid that even King Song, no one thinks highly of him.”

Zhan Kun said: "Even if you are a robber, you must have a signboard, right? The little saint is that signboard."

"That's right." Jia Cong said, resting his chin, "Another question. Who is so capable of bringing four unrelated princes together. I can't find it. And it doesn't look like someone with strong comprehensive strength Master, how could An'er deal with it alone? How did that guy do it? By lip service? Is there anyone else who has a good tongue besides me?"

Lin Daiyu said with a smile: "You are only allowed to step on the hot wheels, but not others to swing the golden cudgel?" Nai looked at the crowd, "At first, Xiaoxi guessed where the king of Song got so much money to buy guns. Now it seems that he is probably Bought for others."

Jia Cong nodded again and again: "That's right. Bandits and robbers, Wu Da shopkeeper doesn't do business with them. Probably these four shops are all bought for others." Then he said "Oops", "Added a new problem. Jin Wang Qi Wang Chen Wang is different from King Song, they are all rich people, there is no need to earn pocket money by buying firearms for bandits. Jin has been quite rich in recent years—huh? Brother Han Qi didn’t get any news about this matter? Hiding it? He is an important minister. Purchasing weapons is not a trivial matter, why did King Jin hide it from him?"

Feng Ziying patted the desk lightly: "That's right, even Han Qi doesn't know. Send him a telegram to ask." As he spoke, he stood up and wanted to send a telegram in person.

Wu Xiaoxi hurriedly said: "Meteor No. [-] complained about the quality, we sent people to Chen country. It is most likely that they are in Chen country, you should try your best to check and see if there is anything weird." Feng Ziying nodded head out.She added, "Check out the confidant eunuchs of the southern kings."

Feng Ziying had already walked to the door, grabbed the gate and said: "The southern countries are divided, how many eunuchs can there be left in the capital? Only the two princes of the previous generation are left alive. Just died Killed a king of Wu, indulged in wine and sex, and emptied his body..." Before he finished speaking, he slapped the door panel, "Wu Wang is dead, is it true that the confidant eunuch will be free?"

Everyone looked at each other for a moment, and Jia Cong weakly raised a hand: "What's inside... the portrait of Mr. Guo, didn't we just check it in the country of Yan, and didn't pass it on to other places?"

Feng Ziying looked at Zhan Qiao: "Has the old man ever sent him to the country of Wu?"

Zhan Qiao said: "I don't care about these trivial matters for many years, and I occasionally come out to help you. Isn't this your job?"

"But you're not in charge of this matter..." Before finishing speaking, Feng Ziying saw Zhan Qiao's complexion darken, and quickly raised a hand, "I was wrong! It should be my job!"

Jia Cong couldn't help laughing.After laughing twice, Lin Daiyu shouted sharply: "What are you laughing at? Is it funny?"

Jia Cong shrank his neck: "It's not funny, it's not funny at all!"

Zhan Kun also said: "This is an internal problem, and the intelligence system should also take care of it."

Feng Ziying nodded: "Tomorrow, I will go to Master Zhan's yamen to discuss. Send a telegram to Han Qi first." Then he opened the door and walked out.

In the evening, Han Qi called back: He tried King Jin, and judging from his face, he actually bought firearms for someone.Of course not bandits.He also said that three months ago, the king of Chen had sent someone to see the king of Jin, saying that there was an extremely important matter in the clan, which could only be reported to the king of Jin.Everyone mentioned "things in the family", so Han Qi didn't want to ask.Feng Ziying thought about it for a long time, but she really couldn't think of how Chen Wang's temperament would come forward to make a moth and offend Yan Guo.Jia Cong learned that he gritted his teeth: "It's a family thing to engage in terrorist attacks and let soldiers kill civilians? His own father dared not say that."

Now several clues point to Chen Wang, Wu Xiaoxi got up the next day and rushed to Chenzhou.When I got there, I checked and found that all the thousand guns were of the highest quality, and none of them failed to fire bullets.King Chen sent a general surnamed Li to negotiate.He said: "I've tried many times, and it's absolutely true that I can't shoot bullets. Originally, there were twenty or so that were always good. A few days ago, I took them out for training, but they couldn't shoot them again."

Wu Xiaoxi's eyes moved slightly: the number of robbers in Tianjin Shipyard happened to be more than [-] people.She thought for a long time and said, "This matter is strange. General Li, the things are here. We checked once and it is really all right, but it is really not good for you to do it. I believe that General Li will not be idle and complain to me. You see how good this is. We will take back all the Meteor [-]s, return them to the original factory, and then reissue a new batch for you. The first batch of bullets will be sent to you as if we were accompanying Mr. Chen. The new ones Give us a [-]% discount to calculate the price, and I will give it to you. What does General Li think?"

General Li thought for a long time and said: "I will not be able to decide this matter in the end, I have to go back and ask the prince for advice."

Wu Xiaoxi smiled and said, "Naturally."

General Li immediately went to Chen Wangfu to report the matter.At the end, he said: "My lord, Red Bones is not easy to offend us. The guns and guns of the whole country are in their hands."

Chen Wang nodded: "This kind of treatment can be regarded as sincere. The bullets are also a lot of money." He agreed.

After dealing with the official duties for a while, Chen Wang ate some snacks, stood up and stretched his muscles and bones, ordered people to change the clothes of the common people, and went out through the small gate in the back garden of the palace.Ordinary people naturally don't recognize the prince, and no one pays attention to him.Go out of the city gate and go straight to Cifu Temple on the outskirts of the city.This temple was built by King Chen for his mother Concubine Hui, and he often came here to seek peace when he was free.

The presiding monk rushed out to meet him and had a chat with him.Chen Wang asked, "Where is Master Jianru?"

The presiding monk said: "It's in Zhan Dou Garden."

Chen Wangdao: "You don't need to accompany, the lonely king will go by himself." The presiding monk recited the Buddha, as if he had something to say.After hesitating for a moment, he finally didn't speak.

Chen Wang led a few guards to Zhan Dou Garden at the back, and saw a black and fat monk sitting at a stone table under the rockery and playing chess with others.On the opposite side is a young man in his 20s, as dark as this monk.When Chen Wang approached, the young man yelled, "Your old man is too much of a bully! Stop!"

The monk smiled and said, "You only guarded against the cannons, but you didn't pay attention to the pawns?"

The young man grinned: "I... I forgot that pawns can walk sideways when crossing a river." Nai slapped himself lightly, "'Pawns who cross a river walk sideways', I heard this saying when I was young, but I don't know what it means. How did you forget it just now?" The monk laughed.

Chen Wang had been standing aside for half a day, secretly gritted his teeth: These two people never put themselves in the eyes.Nai coughed.The monk stood up: "The prince is here?"

Chen Wangdao: "The people from Hongguji are here today."

"how?"

Chen Wang then told the story. "What does the master think?"

Before the monk could speak, the young man rushed to yell: "How many important matters have been delayed! Only a [-]% discount? Shouldn't we be compensated for lost work?"

Chen Wang glanced at him: "In the future, you will have to find them to buy bullets. What good is it if you offend them? They can obviously shoot bullets, so if they are willing to return them, the discount is already good."

The young man sneered: "Don't you make money if you have money? Don't worry, the prince will ask them for a discount. As a businessman, you won't lose face if you have money."

Chen Wang said coldly: "There are many people looking for them to buy firearms. I don't care about your money."

The monk glanced at the young man.The young man covered his mouth.The monk said: "Since the prince thinks this condition is acceptable, I agree."

The young man let go of his hand covering his mouth: "How long will it take for them to replace the goods? Will it take us too long?"

Chen Wang pondered and said: "Two or three months at least. Shopkeeper Wu must go to other countries first, and exchange all the other [-] pieces."

The young man murmured: "She is imported from abroad. She won't wait for the sea goods merchant to take away the goods and return them with new ones before shipping them to us."

Chen Wang immediately said: "Their warehouse is in Ping'an Prefecture."

"Okay, okay, anyway, I'm an idiot." The young man made a grimace.

The monk said: "Since that's the case, just follow them. The [-]% discount money should be used to buy some dry food for the brothers who are running errands under the prince." Chen Wang nodded.The two said something else, and King Chen went back.

As soon as Chen Wang left, the young man let out a sigh of relief: "Master, do you have to be free for a few months? Where shall we go for a meeting?"

The monk glared at him: "What are you playing? You just got such an idea, why don't you practice?"

"Do you still want to practice?" the young man said, "It's enough to be trained like this now. You can't train into a regular army anymore? It's not like bandits. Anyway, we don't fight with officers and soldiers. It's so easy to pick up guns and shoot civilians. Those people are unarmed. .”

The monk was startled, and after a long while, joined the palms together and recited "Amitabha".

The young man leaned his head and looked at him a few times: "Master, that time... you are very lucky."

The monk lowered his eyes: "What are you lucky about?"

"Fortunately the gun is broken." The young man said, "Which bastard's grandson with a rotten heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys came up with the idea! I'm not afraid of cutting off children and grandchildren."

After a long time, the monk closed his eyes and sighed: "Yan's national strength is growing day by day, there is really no other way."

The young man snorted, turned around and walked in, saying in his mouth: "Anyway, if you make up your mind, the retribution will not be on my head."

The monk sighed softly and murmured: "The retribution is for the poor monk."
