Chapter 62 Lightning Action
The divine fortune teller was wearing linen clothes with a piece of white silk wrapped around his waist. He knelt in the crowd, closed his eyes and meditated. When the suona sounded, everyone mourned in unison, and he started crying along with him. At lunch, the man with the scar on his forehead
The man picked up a load of sesame seed cakes and gave two to each person. The fortune teller took it and ate it. The sesame seed cakes were dry and hard. The fortune teller said, "Excuse me, can you give me a bowl of hot water?"
The scarred man said with a look of disgust: "It's good if you have something to eat. I don't want to go to the east of the city to beg for food."
The fortune teller said: "Boss, when I came to recruit people, I said I could just sit down, but I didn't say I had to kneel down and cry. Look at my age. Over time, my back aches and my legs cramp. I only earn three dollars a day."
Ten pieces of paper!”
Scarface said: "I've got so many people, but you are the only one who has a lot to do, and you still don't work hard. If you don't want to do it, get out of here!"
The fortune teller continued: "I'll do it, I'll do it!"
After Scarface left, the two of them stepped forward and said, "Isn't this a fortune teller? How come you are here too? How come you have a relative who is a royal censor!"
When the fortune teller saw the two of them, he glanced at the six doors again, and was about to exclaim when he was stopped by Fan Xiaodao, who whispered, "It's not convenient to talk here, let's change places." The three of them came to a door not far away.
In the corner, Shenfan Xiaodao said again: "How come you are like this?"
The divine fortune teller sighed, "After you left, the Wucheng Army and Horses Division imprisoned me for another three days. Seeing that I had too much to eat, they released me. My fortune-telling stall was smashed by them, and I had no place to live.
I had no choice but to beg in the east of the city. Someone was recruiting people today and they said it was thirty cash a day, so I came."
"What's Scarface's background?"
"I don't know, it doesn't matter what his background is, as long as he gives him money."
At this time, a man dressed as a scribe came to the corner and shouted. When Scarface saw it, he quickly came over and said, "Master Yu, why did you come in person?"
"Let me take a look!"
Scarface took out a piece of white silk and handed it over, "To prevent others from becoming suspicious, you can also tie this."
The scribe said: "Fuck you, you said something unlucky." He glanced at the six doors and said: "It's been three days and there's not even a reaction from the other party. In my opinion, your formation is not big enough.
Ah, Zhao Laoqi, go find another thirty or fifty people and give me a hundred people. I don’t believe that Liumen will always be a tortoise!"
Zhao Laoqi said: "Master Yu, I have worked hard to find these thirty people. Prices have risen recently, and it is not as good as before, so it is not easy to find people."
The scribe glared and said coldly: "How come, a worker in the labor market in the east of the city only costs fifty cents, and I'll give you two hundred cents, and you still talk to me about the difficulties? If you can't do this, I'll go
Find someone else to do it.”
Zhao Laoqi saw this and said: "I'll do it, I'll do it!"
The scribe said: "Work hard and make some trouble for me without breaking the law!"
Zhao Laoqi nodded repeatedly.
After the scribe left, Zhao Laoqi saw the fortune teller in the corner and shouted: "You old guy, you are lazy again, I will deduct ten cents from your wages!" His eyes glanced at Fan Xiaodao and Zhao Xing, and he asked, "You guys
Two, do you have any errands?"
Fan Xiaodao said: "If I have an errand, I won't join in the fun here."
Zhao Laoqi saw that the two of them were young and had no errands, so he said: "I have a job, which is thirty cents a day, and the salary is settled on the same day. Are you interested?"
Fan Xiaodao said with a smile: "That's a good thing. We brothers have been having a hard time lately, so I'm very grateful that this man is willing to give me some food! It's just the money. I just heard that man say it's 200 yuan a day.
I'm afraid you're being a bit harsh here."
Zhao Laoqi said: "Two hundred coins, that includes food and accommodation. Look, it doesn't cost anything to hold the banner? It doesn't cost anything to hire a band? And Mai Bai Ling, let's count your food and accommodation expenses.
Come to think of it, there's not much money left. How nice of you to sit here and do nothing. Just shout twice and only get 30 yuan a day. I'm jealous of that. I'm in a miserable state. I have to do procurement, coordination, and...
I will serve you with food, drink, and diarrhea.”
Fan Xiaodao said: "It's okay to serve food and drink. I don't need you to take care of the diarrhea. I'll give you some extra."
Zhao Laoqi thought for a while, "If you want to make money, there is nothing you can do. Have you seen these people? Now the gentlemen think there are few people and want to make a big move. I am worried about how to find people. As long as you can bring me people over.
, thirty-five cents a day, as for how much you pay to find someone, I don’t care, how about that?"
Fan Xiaodao said curiously: "Second subcontracting of labor services is illegal."
"How can you make money without breaking the law? Find me fifty more people before dark and tell me whether you want to do it or not."
Fan Xiaodao said: "It's settled in one word."
"I'm going to buy Mai and Bai Ling first. Alas, money is everywhere."
After Zhao Laoqi left, Zhao Xing asked, "Where are you going to find someone?"
Fan Xiaodao pointed at the six doors, "Anyway, those people are blocked at the door and can't do anything. It's better to call them out and stretch their muscles, which can be regarded as performing official duties."
The two of them returned to Liumen. When something like this happened, Yang Deshui was not there, and several heads of state had gone out to escape. Only Li Beihai, the jailer, was in the office. These days, Li Beihai looked at Fan Xiaodao with admiration, so he treated Fan Xiaodao with admiration.
When Xiaodao came to the door, Li Beihai agreed without saying a word. The jailer gathered more than 20 people, and Zhao Xing and Ding Yi called together the detectives from the second group and the second group.
Fan Xiaodao said: "Everyone, Liumen is in crisis now. There is a group of unemployed vagrants who are instigated by others to block our Yamen and bring great inconvenience to our office. Can you bear it?"
Niu Dafu took the lead and shouted: "I can't bear it!"
"What should we do?"
"Catch them!"
Fan Xiaodao said, "We have no reason to arrest people. They are just sit-in demonstrations, so we have to outsmart them."
"How to outsmart him?"
"As the saying goes, the disaster started with Xiao Qiang, who penetrated into the enemy's interior, divided and disintegrated their fighting spirit. We, the six gates, are preparing to launch an operation, so I have invited you all to change into civilian clothes later. I will lead you to blend into the enemy's team.
We must do our best to provoke internal conflicts. The code name of this operation is Operation Lightning. Success or failure depends on this!"
The detectives quickly changed their clothes and went out from the backyard. Under the leadership of Fan Xiaodao, they came to the yamen gate.
Zhao Laoqi couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw Fan Xiaodao's efficiency, "Brother Fan is really a god."
Fan Xiaodao smiled: "If you have money to make, of course you won't be left behind. Can you settle the money first?"
Zhao Laoqi said, "We haven't started work yet, so how can we settle accounts?"
Fan Xiaodao said: "People like me came from other places and promised to pay first and then work. If it doesn't work, then we have to forget it."
Zhao Laoqi was not willing to miss it, so he took out two taels of silver from his arms, handed it over, and handed the linen clothes and white silk he bought to Fan Xiaodao. Fan Xiaodao asked Niu Dafu to distribute them, and took the rest of the people to join the sit-in team.
Fan Xiaodao was about to go in, but Zhao Laoqi said, "Brother Fan and Brother Zhao are also partners now, why bother hanging out with them? Come on, let's go over here to drink tea."
Turning around a street, at the corner, there was a coffee table, just enough to see clearly what was going on at the six-door Yamen entrance.
Zhao Laoqi made tea, poured two cups, handed it over and said, "It took me a long time to find these thirty people. These two brothers are so young. I didn't expect to have such energy. I really admire them! They will make money in the future.
Why don't you and I brothers do this together?"
Fan Xiaodao said: "It's just that life is not easy to do now!"
Zhao Laoqi said: "That's not necessarily the case. You also noticed the gentleman just now. He is a man of status. As the saying goes, you can enjoy the shade with your back against a big tree. As long as we hold on to this thigh, we won't have to worry about running out of work.
From now on, if you want to drink spicy food, my brother will take you with me."
Zhao Xing asked: "I think Mr. Zhao Qi is a bit unfamiliar. I wonder where he made his fortune before?"
"Oh, haha!" Zhao Laoqi said, "To be honest, I used to be a gangster. I committed a crime a few years ago and went in. Not long after I came out, I was preparing to make a comeback. I happened to meet this noble man, Mr. Yu, and now I meet him again.
When I meet these two brothers, God is really helping me!"
Fan Xiaodao said: "Which immortal is Master Yu you are talking about?"
Zhao Laoqi looked mysterious and said in a low voice: "It is the master of Qian's consort's house who has a background in the palace. Otherwise, give me ten courages and I would not dare to block the six-door Yamen. However,
This matter is of great importance, and I am telling you because I treat you two as brothers. You must not spread the word."
Fan and Zhao looked at each other, and it turned out that they were the ones responsible. They were really haunted.
After defeating Zhuge Xianyu and driving him away, they made such a fuss again. What were they doing?
"It's clear, it's clear!"
While the three of them were drinking tea and chatting, there was a blare at the door, and everyone began to howl like ghosts and wolves. Everyone was in great mourning, as if they were mourning for their heirs, which was earth-shattering. Zhao Laoqi gave a thumbs up and said, "Brothers, the person you have found is full of energy and powerful.
The old guys I got worked much harder!"
"Of course, yours are temporary workers, while mine are long-term partners."
"Are you brothers reliable?"
"Of course it's reliable."
Zhao Laoqi said: "After finishing this work alone, I have a bold idea."
"tell me the story."
"I've thought about it, this kind of thing won't last long. After it's over, I'll have the connections and you will have the people, and we'll do the big deal."
Fan Xiaodao was shocked: "How come, you want to rebel?"
"That's not the case. In the past, my brother was considered the number one person on the capital road. Now when he comes out, the people around him are scattered. It happens that you have someone else, so the opportunity has come. Now, in the world of the capital, there are also
Sihetang and Ghost House, I heard that they have been fighting fiercely to grab a piece of land recently. This is an opportunity for us. We, No. 180, will mediate between them. I am using Master Yu’s relationship, maybe we can
Grab that piece of fat meat and grab it. When the time comes, Master Yu will eat the meat, and we will eat the bones and drink the soup. Wouldn't it be wonderful?"
"Now that you say that, I'm actually interested."
