During the Anti-Japanese War, the landlord's stupid son defied fate

The next morning, the warm sunlight shone into his room, making him feel warm and even less willing to get up.

Ever since coming here, no longer a battlefield of war, he has started to like staying in bed. Sometimes Xiao Cui has to call him several times.

The same situation happened again today. Xiao Cui just entered the room and saw that the young master was still asleep, so she walked over and whispered in his ear.

"Master, it's time to get up. Breakfast is ready."

Xiao Cui said it three times, but still couldn't wake Zhao Gang up. She was helpless.

She had no choice but to bring breakfast into the house, then brought hot water, washed the towel, wrung it dry and put it aside.

Sure enough, the fragrance in the room woke Zhao Gang up. He looked at the breakfast on the table and had no choice but to get up and eat.

There's nothing he can do, he's hungry.

He didn't expect that Xiao Cui was so smart and knew how to tempt him with delicious food.

"Young master, you're awake. Let me wipe your face." Xiao Cui came to Zhao Gang with a towel and prepared to wipe his face.

"No, you should leave it there and let me do it myself. Check if the food is hot. If it's not, have someone heat it up immediately. I don't want to eat cold food."

"Okay, Master."

Xiao Cui quickly picked up the chopsticks and tasted it. She found that the food was okay and didn't need to be heated up.

"Master, you can eat it. No need to heat it up."

Zhao Gang washed his face at the washbasin, tidied himself up briefly, and then sat down at the table.

"Well, okay, have you eaten?" he asked habitually.

"Eat it, young master, don't worry about me." Xiao Cui said in a low voice.

"Well, let's sit down together. I can't eat so many dishes anyway."

He saw that his breakfast was quite good: millet rice with red beans, two fried meat dishes and two vegetable dishes, and egg soup.

This is a very good meal for ordinary people. As a maid, Xiao Cui naturally doesn't eat this, so she whispered that she ate it, but her eyes were full of desire.

Zhao Gang asked her to have breakfast with him. Half an hour later, after he had eaten and drunk his fill, he got dressed and prepared to leave.

Xiao Cui was packing up her things. She needed to clean up the place where Zhao Gang lived, and then help with other chores when she had nothing else to do.

At this time, Mr. Zhao saw him about to go out and asked.

"Did you drive away all the bandits?"

"Yes, I occupy that place. There are minerals there." Zhao Gang replied directly.

"Oh, Dad, hurry up and have people sort out which areas in our county have mineral resources, starting with those in the ancient town. That shouldn't be difficult, right?"

Mr. Zhao nodded after hearing this. He naturally knew that this was not difficult. There were relevant records in the county, and they roughly knew where they were.

"Okay, after you pack up your things, put them in my room. I'll see them right away when I come back."

After he finished speaking, he rode away on his horse, and the ten guards beside him followed him.

He needs to stay in the ancient town today. As the captain of the security team, where else can he go if not staying in his own territory?

But as soon as he entered the ancient town, Mayor Wang came to find him.

Before he dismounted, Mayor Wang called him.

"Captain Zhao, you're here! I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Zhao Gang was speechless. What was this guy doing so early in the morning? Why not wait until he stood firm before talking about it?

"Mayor Wang, please wait a moment. Let me stand firmly before you speak."

After he got off the horse, he had the horse taken away, and then he spoke to Mayor Wang.

"Mayor Wang, what's so urgent that you're worried about?" Zhao Gang said.

Mayor Wang felt a little embarrassed, but still said it.

"Captain Zhao, you are the village chief of those three villages today, and they want to treat you to a meal."

This surprised Zhao Gang a little. Hadn't they already dealt with the bandits? Why were they still looking for him?

"What's the matter? Haven't we already dealt with the previous things for them?" he said a little unhappily.

I am the young master of the Zhao family. If I would frequently contact you just for a meal, then my worth is too low.

If he doesn't find out clearly today, he won't go again. Anyway, he has a reason. There are a lot of things in the military camp that he hasn't dealt with yet.

"It's like this. They already know that you have sent that group of bandits away, but they said at the time that they wanted to wipe them out, so they came to discuss with you whether to send more troops to wipe them out." Mayor Wang said a little helplessly.

Zhao Gang was furious. He didn't expect this group of people to be so shameless and even so petty that they had to kill people.

"That's not right, Mayor Wang. They asked me and the security group to send troops, but they only said we were going to deal with the bandits, not to eliminate them. We've already driven them away and they're no longer within the town. Isn't that enough?"

"You have to understand that to eliminate 300 bandits, you'll need at least 3 rounds of ammunition, plus compensation and medical expenses for the injured. Do you think 3000 is enough?"

"What's even more ridiculous is that 3000 out of the 2000 were taken away by others. What can you do with that amount of money?"

"Mayor Wang, you have to understand that there are rules and limits to how much money you have to pay for something. If they can pay 3 yuan for these people's lives, I promise to wipe them out completely."

"Those bullets cost more than 3000, just think about it."

After he finished speaking, he went to the military camp and ignored Mayor Wang.

When Zhao Yi saw him coming, he immediately came over to report his work.

"Captain, I'd like to report to you on my work."

"Okay, let's talk aside."

Now this is a big construction site and there is no place to sit, so he asked Zhao Yi to talk with him aside.

Zhao Yi told him about the progress of the project yesterday. The current progress is that the foundation has been almost dug, and the foundation of the military camp dormitory can be completed today.

Once these are done, you can start preparing to build the house.

"Then you can arrange for someone to continue working on it. I'll go to the police station and take a look."

He walked out of the barracks alone and headed towards the police office.

At this moment, in Mayor Wang’s office, he was talking to three people.

He was not in a good mood either. After all, Zhao Gang had just rejected him and spoke so harshly, which made him very unhappy.

"I'm telling you three, how deep is your grudge against those bandits? Captain Zhao just took office and helped you drive them away. What are you still dissatisfied with?"

"I just told someone about you guys, and he scolded me."

"I have my dignity, but what they said is true. You only gave us 3000 dollars, not even enough for bullets. How can you eliminate those people?"

"He just said that as long as you can pay 5 yuan, he will be responsible for killing all 300 people."

"You have to remember one thing: you can only do so much with the money you have. There are rules and limits. If you exceed the limit, then I'll be sorry."

The three men fell silent. It wasn't that they didn't have the tens of thousands of dollars, but they were unwilling to spend it.

If they sell it, their family's wealth will shrink by 30%, so they are reluctant to do it.

But if those people don't die, and come back to take revenge on them in the future, they will die a miserable death.

They also regret it, but there is no medicine for regret.

"He's the young master of the Zhao family, so why would he care about your meal? You should go back and think about it."

Mayor Wang asked them to leave. The more he looked at the three people, the angrier he became.

Because of the mess caused by the three of them, not only did he not make much money, but he also lost face. How could he suppress the young master of the Zhao family in the town from now on?

He now regrets getting involved in this matter.
