Fang La Du Jia immediately transferred most of his information out in his heart. Since he met the retired Minister of War that time and learned of the three major bandits that the imperial court was quite afraid of, he understood that this part of the situation was completely consistent with the original plot, at least partially consistent, so he immediately arranged it and asked Zhu Gui to send someone to investigate the information of these people in detail, and don’t be afraid of spending money. The amount of funds he gave was as high as 10,000 guan!

This is already the income of an infantry general such as Li Kui and Liu Tang. Even if an ordinary soldier fights his life, he may not make any profit. It can be seen that Du Jia attaches great importance to this matter. Zhu Gui did not neglect it at first sight, so he immediately arranged five or seven meticulous men.

This is Zhu Gui's advantage. His martial arts are very average. Du Qian beat him three or five times, and his paper talent is far from being compared with Xiao Rang and Jiang Jing, let alone Wu Yong and others, but he also has two advantages: loyalty and meticulousness.

As the earliest old man to go up the mountain, he was as if he had watched Du Jia grow up to this level now, so he was extremely awe of Du Jia, especially Du Jia who saved him from an old spy, otherwise he would have been sent to the corner of the North Mountain. Therefore, he has long been Du Jia's absolute confidant, and his loyalty is definitely not inferior to Shi Xiu, Ruan Xiaoqi and others.

There is also a very rare advantage of meticulousness. Liangshan has never lacked strong generals and heroes, but most of these people are more heroic and unruly, and they don’t take life and death seriously, let alone anything else. This is an advantage most of the time, but inevitably they are careless in doing things.

However, Zhu Gui is rare and very careful. As long as it was explained by Du Jia - even if it was just mentioned by chance, he would keep it in mind and do it meticulously. Therefore, although there are three military advisors on the mountain now, Gongsun Sheng and Zhu Wu are also Du Jia India, he is still willing to arrange some trivial matters for Zhu Zhugui, as long as he can, he has never disappointed Du Jia.

It turned out that Fang La was just a farmer in the rural areas of Hangzhou. He was quick and generous, so he was very popular. Once he and a few friends went to the bamboo forest to cut bamboos and sell them for money. When they passed by the stream, they looked into the water. Unexpectedly, the reflections of others in the water were normal, but Fang La wore a flat crown and a dragon robe.

These two things are not something that anyone can wear casually. Not to mention ordinary people, even officials strictly prohibit them. Only the royal family or the royal family can do it.

There was no rule for the Northern Song Dynasty to be named kings in a different surname. All the kings came from royal blood, so in other words, those who were qualified to wear this dragon robe and this flat crown were all from the Zhao family!

So the friends who witnessed this scene with their own eyes were shocked, and their eyes were immediately different when they looked at Fang La. These days, everyone is very good at these legends of gods and ghosts. Every time they rebelled, they were accompanied by many rumors, such as "The Great Chu rises and King Chen Sheng", such as "Don't say that the stone man has one eye to provoke the Yellow River to rebel the world," and "The sky is dead, Huang Tian should be established in Jiazi and the world is lucky".

Therefore, while the friends were shocked, Fang La was also extremely excited, believing that God's will allowed him to dominate the world, and from then on he had the intention of being unjust.

He had already hoped that he had made friends with all kinds of heroes more deliberately. In addition, this strange incident was spreading more and more widely, and the more outrageous it became. In the end, a golden light flashed in the water. A god-general with golden helmet and armor was named Fang La as the leader of this generation, replacing the Zhao family to live in the world.

So many heroes soon gathered around Fang La. Everyone often gathered and discussed the general trend of the world, just waiting for a suitable opportunity.

The opportunity came soon. Perhaps Song Huizong also felt that the world had been peaceful for too long, and it seemed too boring. While levying heavy taxes in the north, he also created a thing called "Flower and Stone Gang" in Jiangnan.

The so-called flower stone gang is actually some stones with special patterns. This thing is usually worthless, at most it is a statue or other things. There are many people around the forest and lake on the edge of the road, and anyone who wants to move it away can do it directly.

However, the great postmodern artist Huizong suddenly became interested in these stones one day. According to him, these patterns contain countless mysteries of the universe and the beauty is extremely beautiful, which is a work of art. He decided to make more research and appreciation.

In fact, there are many collectors in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad who like to collect all kinds of foreign objects. Some like gold and silver, some like ceramics, some like antiques, and some like stones. There is nothing wrong with this, just collect it if you like it.

But this Huizong is the 195th emperor. If he likes something, it would be great. The civil and military officials, eunuchs and palace maids would not try their best to find him to please him. Especially this time, what his majesty liked was just stone, and even those who had poor family property were also thinking about it.

As a result, when everyone found out that the stone came from Jiangnan, they all rushed there in a rush. Yangzhou magistrate was originally a disciple of Tong Guan, and he got the moon first when he was close to the water. After hearing the news, he immediately mobilized a large number of people to send to Tokyo as soon as possible, and "respect" to Huizong in the name of Tong Guan.

Huizong was overjoyed and felt that Tong Guan was his soulmate, so he immediately enthroned him. In fact, Tong Guan's status was not so respectful at that time. He was just an ordinary favorite minister. He was only a third-rank official and his relatives were far less than those of Brother Qiu and others. But this vote was completed and was very favored by Huizong. Then he quickly rose up and soared all the way, climbing to the second only to Cai Jing. Even Brother Qiu was overwhelmed by him. In the huge Song Dynasty, he was below two people and above two million people.

This is actually not surprising. For Huizong, Brother Qiu is a servant who plays games and sports with him, while Tong Guan is his own artistic soulmate, so the latter's status is naturally higher.

After seeing Tong Guan's myth, the court suddenly exploded. Everyone was asking for "Flower and Stone Gang" to Jiangnan through various channels. Whether it was stone, wood, or bamboo, as long as there were patterns, they were transported to the capital. Huizong was very pleased to see that his soulmates were more and more, so he used these flower and Stone Gang to build many garden palaces in the capital for the "Flower and Stone Gang" to play and enjoy.

Of course, Huizong was a generous person. He either appointed officials or rewarded money for these soulmates. The rest were even more attracted to them. He even opened several water transport routes specifically for transporting Huashigang, which greatly facilitated transportation between the north and the south, but also brought great pressure to the people in Jiangnan.

Here we have to mention the unlucky green-faced beast Yang Zhi. When he was transporting Hua Shigang, the ship was blown down by the strong wind, which delayed his bright future and went step by step toward darkness.
