Sure enough, after only one day of Du Jia and the others, Bai Sheng sent someone to send a message quietly, saying that the prefect Zhao had sent someone to contact them secretly, saying that he expressed great indignation for their rampant behavior. He asked Liangshan to return his wife and father-in-law's family to Zhao immediately, and then he would bear the consequences.

At this time, Lin Chong, who was responsible there, naturally, as Du Jia told him before, asked both sides to exchange hostages first, and then deal with them in war or in harmony. The person sent by Zhao Gong naturally refused, saying that Du Ping and the others were important criminals of the court, so how could they be released privately?

But the visitor also secretly hinted that Lin Chong and the others said that it was Du Ping and his wife's affairs and their boss already knew that it would be impossible to let go, but he could guarantee their lives and hoped that the people in Liangshan would not hurt his wife's family.

In fact, the prefect Zhao was also shocked and angry at this time. He had already received news that the county town of Tangshan was destroyed by Liangshan, all the money and grain preparations were wiped out, and the magistrate also committed suicide. In addition, the matter of his wife and family made him in a panic. He never expected that this group of Liangshan bandits would be so bold that they would do such a reckless thing, which caught him off guard.

To be honest, Zhao Gong was a little regretful. He wanted to accept Du Jia's conditions and shake hands with Liangshan. He had already been charged with the remaining crimes of being poor and not being able to defend. If there was another mistake in Yanping Mansion, his official career would end early - this was even more sad than killing him.

But now he has Wei Jizhong around him, and the huge Cai family behind him is also a headache. He knows that this person is cruel and ruthless and has a strong sense of fame. Even his own family will probably sacrifice without hesitation, let alone that he is not his own family at all.

So he didn't dare to talk about this with Wei Jizhong at all. He just secretly sent his confidant to reach a certain agreement with Liangshan. Neither party hurt the hostages, nor did the Liangshan people come to attack Yanping Mansion. Until Wei Jizhong or the people above were impatient and wanted to send Du Ping and his wife to Qingzhou or other places. Zhao's prefect will send the specific information out, and then Liangshan people will intercept the prison cart themselves, and finally release Zhao's prefect's wife and father-in-law back. Everyone will not violate the river in the future.

After hearing this news, Wu Yong and Du Jia were both satisfied. This was just as they expected. Now at least there is no need to worry about the safety of Du Ping and his wife. All they had to do was to see Pei Xuan and see if there was a way to rescue them in advance.

After relaxing, Du Jia called the waiter over and asked him to make the signature wine and dishes in the store on a table, just take a sip, and don't have to save money for them.

Seeing Shi Jin take out a ingot of more than five taels of silver from his bag and throw it on the table without caring, the waiter couldn't help but feel ecstatic, thinking that he had met a young master from a wealthy family who had come out to play. He hurriedly collected the silver and smiled and went there hurriedly, and then he heard him shouting loudly from behind, obviously urging the dishes.

Then the waiter first put out a few plates of cold dishes, a plate of stir-fried lotus root slices, a plate of sweet and sour jellyfish shreds, a plate of cucumbers, a small pot of drunk shrimps, and a pot of daughter red.

The waiter diligently put down an emerald cup in front of the three of them, then poured a cup for them each, and said with a smile: "Several guests are slow to use. The villain has already greeted the back, and the hot dishes will be served immediately."

Shi Jin took it and tasted it and said, "This wine is good, at least for more than twenty years. Mr. Jia, Mr. Wu, you can drink a few drinks too."

Du Jia picked up the cup and smiled, "This time things went smoothly thanks to the help of my brothers. I would like to pay a cup to you."

The three of them were chatting and laughing while eating. If it were Liu Tang and Li Kui, they would definitely think that the vegetable and wine were not satisfactory, but they were all knowledgeable people, especially Shi Jin, who was a young owner before, and he spent a lot of money and ate many good things, so he naturally knew how to appreciate it. The lotus root slices and cucumbers were obviously freshly picked, and there was a fragrance in the mouth. What was rare is that the drunk shrimp and jellyfish shreds did not have any pickling flavor. You should know that this place is hundreds of miles away from the beach, and even a fast horse would have to run for half a day.

Therefore, in addition to the chef's level and the location of the store, the ingredients are also very particular. The same bass is just an ordinary dish in Songjiang Prefecture, but it is a precious thing to appear in Tokyo Bianliang. Therefore, these cold dishes look nothing special, but the ingredients are very unusual.

It would be fine for Shi Jin, but Du Jia was secretly shocked. He had been in this world for a long time. The lives of the common people he saw were very difficult, and most of them could only live with coarse grains. However, the lives of the dignitaries in this city were so luxurious. The "A concubine riding on the red dust, no one knew it was a lychee" was also the treatment of Yang Guifei. This ordinary medium-sized restaurant in Yanping Mansion could have such a rare thing. It can be seen that the series of expenses used by the money-using people are still unknown.

This is just a Yanping Prefecture, and what about Qingzhou and Tokyo Bianliang above? The cost is probably ten times or a hundred times more. No wonder the Song Dynasty's strong economic strength and technological level were actually bullied by barbarians from all directions. Although this is due to the court's curbing military generals, this serious inequality between the rich and the poor is also an important reason behind it.

Du Jia looked at Wu Yong, and happened to Wu Yong also looked at him - obviously Wu Yong thought of this, and the two looked at each other, nodded and didn't say much, but Du Jia was more concerned about the safety of the country and the nation at this time, but Wu Yong thought that the darker the court was, the higher the possibility of their rebellion, and he was secretly happy.

Shi Jin didn't know what the two old men were thinking, but just persuaded them to drink carefully. In the past few days, they were not only rushing to go, but they finally waited for the news. He had already been waiting for the birds to fade out of his mouth, but now he finally relaxed and naturally drank happily.

The power of silver was indeed magical. Before they finished drinking a pot of wine, the waiter had already brought a plate of braised mutton, a plate of chestnut roast chicken, a plate of crystal shrimp, a plate of roast goose, and a pot of yam pork rib soup. It happened to be four cool, four hot, eight dishes and one soup, and then another pot of wine came over. At this time, there was not even a plate of hot dishes on the rest of the tables in the store, which showed that they were all made for them first.

Many people had anger on their faces, but seeing Du Jia's luxurious clothes, Wu Yong's temperament was outstanding, and Shi Jin had a heroic face. They thought they were from a wealthy family, and they also had a heroic spirit before, so they could only put their anger in their stomachs and cursed them secretly. No one dared to come and find fault.

Seeing this scene, Du Jia sighed secretly. It seemed that the people had been bullied for a long time and did not dare to provoke the people in the government. How could such a disinterested court last for a long time? It seemed that he really wanted to do something well, not only for himself but for the sake of saving the tragic fate among the heroes of Water Margin, but also for saving the people of this era. Now it seems that this is indeed a meaningful thing.

Thinking of this, some of Du Jia's worries and hesitation were wiped out. To be honest, he swept away the two places of Zhaozhuang and Tangshan County with an order these days. Hundreds of people were killed, which made him a little depressed. After all, this is not a game but a living life, but as the lord of a mountain, he must not show any confusion or embarrassment, otherwise the morale of the army below would be in chaos.

But now he fully understood that he did nothing wrong. He was not a god. It was impossible to cure this country that was terminally ill and had a strong enemy looking around without a drop of blood. Some small killings and destructions were just to save more places and people. After he figured it out, he immediately began to eat and drink without hesitation.

It seems that the system notified me to sign the contract after writing the first chapter, but after realizing it, I realized that in the past two days, brothers, please despise me, laugh at me, and throw all kinds of votes over and smash me. Although I don’t know what those are doing now, embarrassing~
