[Quick Wear] Daily Cleansing of Trash

Chapter 56 The Cowardly Wife 11

After hearing what Ya Ye said, Chief Tan jumped up from his chair. He knew that his brother-in-law was not a man who spoke without thinking, so he did not doubt his words.

Ya Ye was a little anxious. He said to Chief Tan, "Brother-in-law, what I said is absolutely true. Dajiang and the others are dead. I want to avenge them!"

Commander Tan walked back and forth with his hands behind his back, feeling extremely anxious.

The Egg Yolk Nation had already captured several cities in the Xia Nation. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, it was only a matter of time before they reached Tianshui City. Now that the Jiang and Liu families had begun contacting the Egg Yolk Nation, it meant that the Egg Yolk Nation was likely to launch an attack on Tianshui City soon, and they had to take immediate action.

Commander Tan looked at Master Ya, frowned, and asked, "I received news earlier that Hutou Village was taken by Qinglong Village on Fenghuang Mountain, and Liu Dabiao was also killed. In your opinion, is Qinglong Village trustworthy?"

Yaye thought for a moment and said, "I think I can trust you!"

Commander Tan gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, you find time to set up a meeting, and I'll go meet that boss Zhang!"

Zhang Xiu was experienced and naturally not afraid of Commander Tan. After friendly exchanges, the two sides finally reached an agreement.

The Liu and Jiang families were capable of such treasonous deeds, so they were certainly not good people, with a lot of little tricks to go around. So one morning, Commander Tan led his men to surround the two families and arrested everyone inside.

All the prominent families in Tianshui City had been greeted by Chief Tan, so when the Liu and Jiang families got into trouble, no one was so foolish as to cause trouble.

The matter was handled quickly. The years of foundation of the Liu and Jiang families were destroyed. Commander Tan saw the strength of Qinglong Village and wanted to win over Qinglong Village, so he expressed his willingness to split the looted property with Zhang Xiu in a 50-50 split.

Zhang Xiu thought for a moment and said, "Commander Tan, I only want the Jiang family's pharmaceutical factory. Everything else is yours!"

There are many kinds of medicines in Zhang Xiu's space, including penicillin and erythromycin, but the quantity is small. She wants to set up a pharmaceutical factory and try to produce penicillin, and then send it to the battlefield to save many lives.

Commander Tan agreed and also gave Zhang Xiu an additional restaurant.

The restaurant could be used to get information, so Zhang Xiu accepted it with a smile and made Li San the manager of the restaurant.

After Li San recovered from his injury, he came to apologize, and Cao Gui pleaded for him. Zhang Xiu was not a petty person, so he gave face to Cao Gui and forgave Li San.

Li San is smart and good at gathering information. When he learned that Zhang Xiu wanted him to be the manager of the restaurant, he was very surprised and swore that he would work hard and be Zhang Xiu's eyes and ears.

Zhang Xiu asked Fu Qiusheng to stay in Tianshui City to hand over various matters, and he rushed back to Baihe Village without stopping.

Watching Zhang Xiuyuan's disappearing figure, Fu Qiusheng touched his chin and asked Zhang Long, who was standing by and waving foolishly, "When do you think the boss will tell her family the truth?"

Yes, everyone in Qinglong Village could see that Zhang Xiu was hiding what he did from his family. Especially after Gou San came, Cao Gui and others knew about what was going on in Zhang Xiu's family.

An ordinary village girl actually had such great abilities that she not only became the leader of a bandit's den, but also collaborated with government officials to kill the traitors. Not many people would believe it if she told others about it.

Zhang Long scratched his head and said, "Maybe the time is not right yet?"

Soon, the time came.

Just a few years after the feudal dynasty was overthrown, warlords, bandits, gangsters, aristocratic families and other forces in various places acted independently under the pretext of "guarding a region".

There are several bandit dens around Yuanbei Town. The largest Qinglong Village and Hutou Village were captured by Zhang Xiu, but there are still many small bandit dens hiding in the deep mountains and forests, and they would suddenly come out to rob houses.

Baihe Village and the surrounding villages were originally on the territory of Qinglong Village. Cao Gui was a "fine man" and was known for his benevolence and righteousness. The villagers occasionally gave him some tolls or protection fees to buy peace.

Now the large force of Qinglongzhai has moved to Yaozi Mountain. Although some people are left at the original site, they have lost their previous deterrent power.

The Six Horse Gang was originally composed of six horse thieves, and over time, it absorbed many bandits to join.

Ma Da originally made a living by selling horses in the north. Later, when the north fell, Ma Da brought his five brothers to the vicinity of Far North City.

Although the situation was chaotic these days, there were only a few bandit strongholds of the size of Qinglong Village and Hutou Village. Most of them were small forces of fifty or sixty people like the Liuma Gang.

Since they were originally horse dealers, the Six Horse Gang naturally had no shortage of good horses. They traveled by riding horses to rob and were extremely difficult to deal with.

Knowing that Qinglong Village had moved to Yaozi Mountain, they adhered to the idea that "the throne will be passed down in turns, and it will be my turn next year", and decided to take this opportunity to expand the power of the Six Horse Gang and become the new king of Fenghuang Mountain.

The Six Horse Gang's plan was to first rob the surrounding areas to accumulate wealth and establish a deterrent. They would then recruit more members to expand their power. When the time was right, they would seize the former site of Qinglong Village on Phoenix Mountain.

This plan was crude, but still feasible. If Zhang Xiu abandoned the original site of Qinglong Village, then over time, the Six Horse Gang might really become the new boss of Phoenix Mountain. However, Zhang Xiu was a "thrifty" person, and he wanted both the new and the old.

Therefore, the Six Horse Gang's attempt was doomed to fail.

The Six Horse Gang was now executing their initial plan. They had initially targeted remote villages for robbery, then fled. Later, realizing Qinglong Village hadn't reacted, they grew bolder and began setting up checkpoints at road junctions, blocking the way and robbing people.

If they met someone who was obedient and well-behaved, they would rush him up the mountain. If he resisted fiercely, they would kill him and throw him into the woods.

The old and weak could do the hard labor, while the young and strong could expand the team. According to Ma Da, now was a period of development, and the more people the better. After all, no matter how many people came, the six brothers would be the ones in charge, and the rest were just lackeys, ready to be recruited or discarded at any time.

Qin's father and mother originally planned to stay at Qin Musheng's house for only one month. Later, Qin Musheng's wife became pregnant, so they asked someone to tell Zhang Xiu that they wanted to stay for a while longer.

Qin Musheng's wife's condition has stabilized these days. Qin's mother was worried about her family and Zhang Xiu, so she decided to go home.

After packing up his things, Qin Musheng borrowed a donkey from the villagers and accompanied his father and mother back to Baihe Village. Seeing that it was getting late, he took a shortcut to hurry up and ended up running into the Six Horse Gang.

Some of the minions in the Six Horse Gang had seen Qin Musheng and knew that he was a carpenter with skills. In order to "recruit talents", Ma Da waved his hand and directly abducted the three people to the mountain.

It happened that Wang Zao came to the branch village to inspect the resettlement situation. His subordinates reported to him what the Six Horse Gang had done. Thinking that Zhang Xiu's home was nearby, Wang Zao became worried, so he brought people to Baihe Village to find Zhang Xiu.

Could Zhang Xiun let the Six Horse Gang, a cancer, ruin the Feng Shui of Phoenix Mountain? So he picked a good day and took a group of people to the Six Horse Gang to destroy the place.

"Ma Da, come out and meet your Grandma Zhang!"
