Chapter 237 Zhang Shun and Li Kui

A few days later, Sun Tu finally knew why Song Jiang had such a great reputation in the world and won the title of Yuhu Baoyi in time, because he was really generous, always paid for people to drink and have dinner, and was polite to everyone. Even if he was a prisoner of the same identity, he would make friends with him.

As for Sun Tu, Dai Zong was even more interested in controlling the officials of the prison camp. Almost every day, he would personally invite someone to the military camp to invite Sun Tu to a restaurant in the city for a banquet. Even if Sun Tuyu was busy with official duties and did not agree, he would not complain at all. He would invite him again the next day. And I heard that while making friends in the city, Song Jiang actually did the errands in his hands, so that others could not find any mistakes. He was really doing well.

In comparison, Sun Tu, a person who has been in Jiangzhou for half a year, is far from comparable to Song Jiang who has only been here for half a month. At least he has not yet formed friendships with many people except for some colleagues and bosses in the officialdom, Zhang Shun and others, and has even offended many people for some things.

Just because they knew their shortcomings, Sun Tu tried to meet Song Jiang and others more, and sometimes even brought Lu Da and Yang Zhi and others to drink together. But I don’t know if Lu Yang’s identities are different now. They did not accept their respect after seeing Song Jiang like in the Water Margin story, and they just had a little favor to him.

It was almost noon that day, and seeing that the village soldiers and soldiers had almost finished their training, Sun Tu waved his hand and asked them to go back to rest. He himself called Lu Da and the others: "Let's go, today Brother Song invited Dean Dai and some others to drink in Xunyang Tower, so let's join in the fun."

After hearing what he said, Lu Da, who was good at drinking, naturally had no objection. Yang Zhi also agreed. Only Huang Wenbing, who happened to come here to report some things from the prison camp, frowned at this time, as if he wanted to say something. But before he could say anything, the three of them had left together, and in the end they could only leave him where he sighed with some confusion.

This Xunyang Tower is the most famous restaurant in Jiangzhou City. This is not only because the scenery of Linjiang is excellent, but also because the wine and food here are the most suitable for the taste, but also because it is said that this place is where Bai Juyi listened to a woman playing the pipa song and went back to write "Pipa Xing" when he was appointed as Sima of Jiangzhou.

Because of this legendary color, there are always a constant stream of guests going to Xunyang Tower to have a drink every day. Moreover, outside the building, you can often hear the resentful sound of Zhengcong's pipa coming from time to time, adding a bit of charm.

Of course, this is just for those literati and poets. As for ordinary wine lovers or warriors like Sun Tu, what they like most is the wine and dishes in Xunyang Tower, especially a few of the fish soups, which are most praised for their delicious taste.

The three of them were considered old customers of Xunyang Tower. When they saw them coming, the shopkeeper and the clerk quickly came forward to greet them with a smile. After asking them whether they were here to go to Song Jiang’s banquet, they immediately laughed and said, “To be honest, the three officials, then Boss Song has not arrived at the banquet yet…”

"Oh? Why is this happening?" Sun Tu glanced at the sun above his head. It was noon now. Why was it not there to invite someone to drink?

"Because the fish soup in the shop is not delicious enough today, Boss Song and his friends went to the opposite dock to buy the fresh fish that they just caught today." As he said that, the shopkeeper pointed to the dock not far from the back window.

Sun Tu and his friends looked along his fingers and saw a group of fishermen gathering at the pier at this time, looking at the river from afar, as if they were attracted by some accident. Then a burst of exclamations rang out from there. Even if it was a distance, it was possible to hear how surprised everyone was. However, a small boat suddenly capsized, and two figures on the boat landed directly into the river water of more than one person.

Seeing this, Sun Tu's heart moved and no longer delayed. He immediately pulled out of the restaurant. After rushing for a while, he finally arrived at the pier and heard several fishermen discussing something: "The black man was really confused. He actually caught up with the boat and fought with the master of the Zhang family. Now that the water fell, it would be difficult to get up again."

"I saw it just now. This black man is indeed a bit powerful. He knocked the master of the Zhang family to the ground with just a few punches, almost hurting people. Now he is asking for some suffering."

While listening to the discussions of the people around him, Sun Tu quickly separated the people watching the fun and walked towards the exit of the dock. When he arrived, he saw two familiar figures jumping out of the way. It was Song Jiang and Dai Zong who invited them to drink here. The latter exclaimed repeatedly: "Iron Niu, the black man, can't water, what should I do if I fall into the river now?"

Sun Tu stepped forward and looked into the river from afar. He saw a sudden wave of water there, a white figure suddenly rose, and he also held a black man in his hand. After taking a moment of breath, he took the other person under the water again. Although the other person struggled, he couldn't exert much effort at this time...

"Oh, this man wants to drown the iron cow in the river. How does this make it happen? Do you know who he is?" Song Jiang was also nervous when he saw this and hurriedly asked everyone around him.

"He is the owner of the Zhang family fish stall with the best water quality on my pier. Zhang Shun, who is known as the white stripes in the waves. The black man dared to get into the water after he provoked him. He was really very bold." Someone explained on the side.

When Song Jiang heard this, he suddenly remembered something, but before he could speak, Sun Tu had already walked forward, put his hands on his lips and shouted at the two people in the river, "Brother Zhang, please show mercy. The person in your hand is my Sun Tu's friend, don't really hurt him."

It was not until this time that Song Jiang realized that Sun Tu had arrived. Seeing that he met Zhang Shun, his heart was wide open and said, "This is really a flood that has washed away the Dragon King Temple. Zhang Shun's brother Zhang Heng has some friendship with Song, and he even asked me to bring a letter to his brother."

Sun Tu's face was still big enough. In just a moment, Zhang Shun had stopped the black man who had continued to stumble in the water and fell into a semi-unconscious one. He quickly returned to the shore from the deep water. He didn't care about the cold and threw the person away. He smiled and strode to Sun Tu and bowed: "How could Sun Tuanlian have the leisure to come here today? Why? Is that black man from the village soldier?"

Speaking of which, after the fierce dragon and a group of water bandits were wiped out that day, Sun Tu had the idea of ​​incorporating the Li Jun and Zhang brothers into the village soldiers. After all, with their ability, even if they were not on the water, they were still much better than ordinary soldiers, and they were exactly the talents he needed.

But in the end, all the three of them politely declined his invitation. After all, they were different from Luda and Yang Zhi. They had never had any experience in joining the army. They had always had prejudice against the government. This time they were willing to help because they had a personal grudge with Fanjiang Jiao, and they refused to work hard for the government and were bound by them.

Seeing that they all had their own aspirations, Sun Tu did not force them too much, so he could only give them some rewards from the government as thanks, and at the same time he formed a friendship and kind relationship with them. In fact, these people also admired Sun Tu quite a lot, so when he heard him shouting on the shore, Zhang Shun followed the order to bring the person back.

When Sun Tu saw him, he smiled: "That's not, but he is a friend. By the way, why did you have such a dispute with others? It will cost someone's life. I, the imperial court official, cannot be regarded as nothing."

"You can rest assured that Sun Tuan trains. I still have this measure, so I will definitely not drown him. Who told me that this black man was rude and unreasonable to take fish on the boat and hurt people. Even I was almost injured by him..." Zhang Shun glanced at the unconscious black man who was brought over by someone with a little hatred.

After hearing this, Song Jiang quickly apologized: "Brother Zhang Shun, please calm down. It was because I didn't take the iron bull's eye, so he caused trouble. To be honest, I casually said that I wanted to eat fresh sour fish soup. There was no fresh fish that came new in Xunyang Tower, so Brother Li Kui was eager to disturb the pier. Please don't be surprised. If there is any loss, Song will compensate me with all his strength." As he said that, he bowed his hands and apologized again and again.

Then Zhang Shun turned his attention to Song Jiang and the others again: "What are these?"

"This is the President Dai Zong Dai of the Prison Camp, and this is Song Jiang and Song Gongming from Yuncheng County, Shandong Province." Sun Tu helped introduce. When Zhang Shun heard Song Jiang's name, he was stunned at first, and then looked up and down at Song Jiang: "You... are you the brother Song Jiang and Song Gongming who are called Baoyi in the Jianghu? Why are you here in my Jiangzhou?"

"It's just... As for why I'm here, I'm talking a long story." Song Jiang subconsciously touched his forehead, where a plaster was sticking it, blocking the golden seal he had obtained from his pill.

"That's really offensive. If I had known that it was Sun Tuanlian and Brother Song Gongming, you wanted to eat fresh fish soup, I would have sent the fish to Xunyang Tower in person. You can go upstairs and later, I'll have someone pick the best fish to bring it over." Zhang Shun laughed suddenly, then turned around and called a friend under his command to ask.

Even though he had known how high Song Jiang's status in the world today, Sun Tu was still a little dazed when he saw that he had to respect him as soon as he reported his name. But soon, he recovered and looked at Song Jiang and the others and said, "Let's sit down in Xunyang Tower first, and let the Li Kui brother change his clothes, otherwise he would be frozen."

When he said this, the black man Li Kui, who had been unconscious because he suffered a lot in the water, finally woke up leisurely. After spitting out two sips of water, he shouted: "What's the skill of you, a guy, plotting against grandpa in the water? You have fought me again if you have the will!" As he said that, he jumped up from the ground.
