Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup
Chapter 88 Former Guest of Honor, Today a Sword Seller
The disappearance of Gao Yanei caused chaos in the capital.
After searching for a day, Gao Qiu suddenly remembered that his son seemed to have been pursuing the married woman from the Zhang family, who appeared to be Lin Chong's wife.
Now that he's missing, what about Zhang's family?
When he came to his senses and sent someone to check on the Zhang family, he found that the Zhang family had also left empty-handed.
When I asked my neighbors, they all said they didn't know.
This enraged Gao Qiu, who immediately issued a warrant for the arrest of Zhang Jiaotou and his family!
My son is gone, and you think you can just run away? No way!
However, Zhang Jiaotou and his family had already arrived at Liangshan by this time.
Arrest warrant? We don't recognize Gao Qiu's arrest warrants in Liangshan territory at all!
Gao Qiu was destined to be nothing more than powerless rage.
Meanwhile, Liangshan was filled with joy.
When Ling Zhen saw his benefactor Wang Jin, he was overjoyed and wept tears of joy. He immediately declared that he would dedicate himself to Liangshan until his dying breath.
Ren Yuan naturally welcomed Ling Zhen, the top gunner of the Song Dynasty. He directly appointed Ling Zhen as the leader of the mountain stronghold's Shenji Battalion, in charge of cannon manufacturing, and gave him free choice in terms of personnel and funding.
When Lin Chong saw Lu Zhishen, his father-in-law's family, and especially his wife, this man over eight feet tall once again burst into tears.
He held his wife tightly, as if afraid that if he let go, she would be gone.
"Senior brother, I have already removed Gao Kan's five senses and brought him back. If you are angry, you can go and vent your anger on him at any time."
Ren Yuan could understand Lin Chong's feelings; the feeling of losing something and then regaining it was indeed very moving.
"Junior brother!"
Lin Chong suddenly knelt down and was about to kowtow to Ren Yuan!
"Senior brother, what are you doing?!"
Ren Yuan quickly tried to pull him away, but Lin Chong was determined to kneel and kowtowed so fast that Ren Yuan accidentally failed to stop him!
"Senior brother, I'm doomed if Master finds out you kowtowed to me."
Ren Yuan quickly helped Lin Chong up.
"Junior brother, I have no way to repay your kindness in saving me! From now on, I will always stand in front of you with this crippled body! Anyone who wants to hurt you will have to get past me first!"
"Senior brother, you flatter me. You and I are brothers, brothers in the same school, brothers in the same school forever."
Ren Yuan could only comfort Lin Chong, but he also had some expectations. With his family by his side, Lin Chong was no longer the frustrated and unsuccessful person in the original story. So, in this life, how brilliant would this Leopard Head, Little Zhang Fei, achieve?
Let's wait and see!
Meanwhile, chaos still raged in Tokyo.
Gangsters were arrested in droves, all in an effort to gather more information.
It's a pity that Gao Kan's closest gang of thugs had all been taken to Liangshan to work as laborers.
Grabbing scraps is really useless; you won't get anything out of them anyway!
Meanwhile, on the other side of Tokyo, inside an inn.
"Sir, aren't you putting me in a difficult position? It's not right to charge on credit. Besides, you said you used to be a military officer. As an official, you can't break the law and force people to pay on credit."
A waiter was talking to a burly man with a birthmark on his face.
“In Tokyo, every inch of land is precious. It’s against the rules for you to buy on credit.”
"Could you give me three more days? If I still can't pay you back the rent after three days, I'll leave on my own."
The man in the large suit was Yang Zhi, who was indeed in dire need of money.
"That's not right either. Even if you leave, the money you owe still hasn't been paid back. You still have to pay it back!"
At first glance, Xiao Er thought Yang Zhi's words made some sense, but he quickly realized that something was wrong!
You didn't pay, so you should have left!
You can't just say you'll run out of money in three days and then not pay back the money you owed for those days, can you?
"Don't worry, I'm a descendant of the Yang family, I definitely won't owe you any money."
"The Yang family? Which Yang family?"
The waiter looked conflicted. This customer not only had no money, but he was also pretending. Honestly, if he didn't look like he couldn't beat him, he would have really wanted to fight him.
"The Yang family of Tianbo Mansion! The reputation of my Yang family can surely vouch for me!"
Yang Zhi valued the reputation of the Yang family most in his life, and he became a little anxious when he saw that the waiter was actually somewhat skeptical.
"Tianbo Yang Mansion...you...alright, then I believe you. I'll go and tell the manager."
The waiter looked Yang Zhi up and down. Deep down, he didn't believe him, but after thinking it over, he realized he couldn't beat him, so he decided to believe him.
He shook his head helplessly, left Yang Zhi's room, and went to find the shopkeeper.
Indeed, I've rarely seen a family of generals fall into such a miserable state.
"The descendants of the Yang family have all fallen so low as to have to buy things on credit? I really can't understand it."
Yang Zhi listened to the waiter's mutterings, his face turning bright red. "Why call him 'Green-faced Beast'? He should just call him 'Red-faced Beast'!"
You can't blame Yang Zhi. Ever since they entered Tokyo, while Ren Yuan and the others went to rescue people, Yang Zhi has been making connections and trying to meet with Grand Commandant Gao.
The problem is that after Ren Yuan and his gang got involved with Gao Yanei, the city of Tokyo fell into chaos.
Gao Qiu was anxious to find his son, so he had no time to pay attention to Yang Zhi.
Besides, is Gao Qiu so easy to meet? Yang Zhi's meager funds aren't even enough to bribe his gatekeeper!
Yang Zhi, however, had planned everything too well and hadn't left himself enough money for his journey. Now, he didn't even have enough for his rent!
What should we do? What can we do?
It seems that the path of Grand Commandant Gao is blocked. What should we do?
At this moment, Yang Zhi truly felt as if he had nowhere to turn.
Suddenly, he thought of the Liangshan gang. He had even told Ren Yuan that he would protect them in the future.
Now it seems I'm not even as successful as them.
A penny can stump a heroic man!
But at that moment, he suddenly saw a knife handle in his luggage.
That's his ancestral heirloom sword! It can cut through iron like mud! It can sever a hair in an instant! It's incredibly valuable!
Yang Zhi reached out and slowly pulled the knife out of its sheath.
A cold glint shone on his face, and Yang Zhi could even clearly see his own face on the blade.
That was a face clouded with sorrow and devoid of luster!
"Ancestors above, your unfilial son Yang Zhi has brought shame upon the Tianbo Mansion."
Yang Zhi sheathed his sword and gently stroked the scabbard, as if he were caressing his beloved girl.
Because right now, the only valuable thing he has is this knife.
In order to revitalize the Yang family of Tianbo, Yang Zhi must return to officialdom!
The only thing that could give him this opportunity was this knife!
"Ancestors, please forgive Yang Zhi one more time. This knife, however it was sold today, Yang Zhi will definitely buy it back in the future!"
Yang Zhi closed his eyes, his veins bulging on his hands. A moment later, when he opened his eyes again, he seemed to have made a very difficult decision.
He, Yang Zhi, is going to sell knives!
Use this ancestral sword to exchange for some travel expenses and funds for advancement!
Tsk tsk, back when he passed the martial arts examination, he was a guest of honor for many officials in Bianjing. Who would have thought that he would become a knife seller on the street now!
He's not selling knives, he's selling dignity!
Yang Zhi wore a bamboo hat when he went out, not wanting to be recognized. At the same time, he also stuck a straw tag into his precious sword, which was a sign for buying and selling.
However, because everyone in Bianjing was searching for Gao Yanei, Yang Zhi stood on the street for a long time without anyone asking about his price, not even a troublesome ruffian. (They had all been taken away for questioning by Gao Qiu.)
As noon approached, Yang Zhi's stomach began to rumble, and his mouth was parched, but he could only endure the hunger and move to a more crowded street to continue standing.
The price of the knife dropped from 6,000 guan to 4,000 guan, but still no one was interested.
"Heavens above, are you playing a trick on me? Is it possible that my ancestral sword can't even be sold?"
Overwhelmed with grief, Yang Zhi looked up to the sky and sighed deeply. Little did he know that his very words would once again change his fate...
