Chapter 83: Liu Xian's Picture
"Are you crazy? And to buy these grains at a higher price to help the people? How much does it cost? Liu, Liu Xiangongzi, what are you from, and how can you have so much money...... Belch. β
Wang Bao's eyes widened and he shouted in disbelief, but when Wen Shen glared at him, he immediately closed his mouth.
Liu Xian waved his hand and said, "This son is indeed a member of the Han family. I do this for several reasons. First, because I only give you a white slip for the government, what does it matter how high the price is? Of course, this is just for the county order Yang Jie, and its purpose is the second reason. β
"This second, is to protect Lord Wen, during this time, Lord Wen may have to be wronged, and he has to deal with the county commander Yang Jiexu and the snake, just pretend, you are also a corrupt official, and you came to Yang's County to make a fortune. Pretend to be in the same league with Yang Jie and them, and only in this way can you win Yang Jie's trust, get food from them, and gain his trust, so that the government of Yangshi County can carry out other work projects. We have to be careful that the dog bites in a hurry. β
"Third, since it is the grain sold to me by the government, I naturally have to pay, and I can't take the grain from the government for nothing. But this price can only be the normal market price. I privately signed a contract for the sale and purchase of grain. In addition, it was noted that if Liu Xian had no money to pay the bill, then he could return the same amount of grain to the government for a period of three years. β
"Fourth, I will pay you a sum of money as a deposit for the purchase of grain, so that Yang Jie's heart can be somewhat settled. However, you can't let Yang Jie take this money, just think that Master Wen is greedy for ink in private. This is just a small profit, I believe that Yang Jie will not bother with you for the sake of the big head in the future. You are greedy to show Yang Jie, so it will be easier to win his trust, because you have a handle to catch him. Then the money was handed over to Wang Bao, so that General Wang Bao could recruit the officers and soldiers, and then train the two hundred officers and soldiers into strong soldiers. This is also to prepare for dealing with Yang Jie and them in the future. As long as Yang Jie falls, Master Wen will be the county commander, and General Wang Bao will be a real county lieutenant. β
"Fifth, I, Liu Xian, have done so much, and I can't be busy in vain, right? It has to be good, right? I don't want much, I just want to have a good reputation, I want to make a little fame in Yang's County, and gain a little prestige among the people. β
After Wen Shen listened, he stood up and bowed deeply to Liu Xian again.
Liu Xian's strategy can be said to be comprehensive and exhaustive, but it can be regarded as a complete solution to his difficulties in gaining a foothold in Yangshi County and opening up the situation.
At this point, he really admires Liu Xian. This young man is not simple, he wants to gain fame and fame in Yang's County, and it is estimated that the plan is very big, and it will not be in the pool in the future.
However, he didn't say these things clearly, and there were some things that he knew by himself. Now that Liu Xian is helping him, he must first accept Liu Xian's favor.
As for the future, that's for later.
He saluted Liu Xian and said: "Young Master Liu Xian, this is a great grace, Wen Mou keeps it in mind, but there will be a dispatch in the future, please bring it up." The situation in Yang's County is indeed critical, so Wen will go to the county order again to implement the food matter as soon as possible. If it goes well, then tomorrow you can get the food. β
"Hmm...... That's fine, then Liu Xian is here waiting for the good news of Master Wen. Liu Xian didn't stop it, this matter is indeed as soon as possible.
"Master Wen, Wang will also go with you." Wang Bao also stood up and said.
"No, it's better for Wen to go and talk to the county commander alone about this matter, as a military attachΓ©, it is not appropriate for you to get involved. In the future, on the surface, you and I should not get too close, so as not to be detrimental to your future recruitment and training. Wen Shen stopped Wang Baodao.
"What Lord Wen said is, General Wang Bao, I have already made people make fresh fish, why don't we have a full meal first, and then let's compare martial arts?"
"Oh? Do you really want to test your martial arts with General Ben? I'm worried that I'm going to break your delicate little arm. "Speaking of martial arts, Wang Bao really looks down on this little boy who looks weak.
"Hehe......" Liu Xian didn't want to be arrogant with him, so he would let him see the power of his Taiping Sutra in a while.
"Master Wen, I haven't seen Yang Jie or am unfamiliar with him, you have to be careful when you deal with him. Take care, we're waiting here for you to come back, and we'll leave you with fish......" Liu Xian turned to Wen Shen and said.
"See you later!" Wen Shen didn't say much and turned to leave.
As soon as Wen Shen left, the two boys helped bring the prepared meal.
Liu Xian thought about it and asked Uncle Zheng to accompany Wang Bao to eat first, there was no wine here, and there was no need to accompany him.
He confessed and went out to recruit Liu Fu.
Now that it was not so dark so quickly, Liu Xian told Liu Fu to return to Liulin Village immediately before dark, and asked Liu Fu to tell Zhang Ning to arrange for those members of the Self-Defense Force who were almost injured to drive all the rafts at dawn tomorrow, and bring twenty or thirty strong women from the village with some strength to Yangshi County.
Liu Xian estimated that if there were no accidents, this Wen Shen would definitely have a result when he went to see Yang Jie, the county commander. There will be food tomorrow, and when the time comes, Liu Xian will send most of the grain back to Liulin Village as soon as possible, and now only by putting the grain in Liulin Village will Liu Xian rest assured. In addition, some of the grain will be left behind, and a soup kitchen will be set up in Yangshi County in the name of Liulin Village Liufu to provide relief to the people of Yangshi County. The twenty or thirty women of the village were sent to cook porridge and divide it.
These things must be arranged first, so as not to have no manpower to do things at that time.
In addition, Liu Xian also had to ask Wang Bao to send his officers and soldiers to protect the soup kitchen and maintain order.
If these things are done well, then Liu Xian's reputation will spread among the people of Yangshi County, so it will be much more convenient for Liu Xian to do anything.
Especially through Wen Shen's mouth, I know that there are still more than 10,000 people in Yangshi County. These more than 10,000 people are human resources themselves, and it is impossible for Liu Xian not to make use of them.
At the very least, among the more than 10,000 people, there will definitely be hundreds of young people, right? As long as the time is ripe, Liu Xian can absorb all the young and strong people in Yang's County into his Liu Mansion caravan, as long as there are these hundreds of people, then his caravan can be regarded as a force to be reckoned with.
As long as they are dragged to Liulin Village for training, they will all be trained to become strong soldiers. In this way, you can join forces with Wen Shen and Wang Bao to kill Yang Jie. and then through Wenshen and Wang Bao, the goal of controlling Yang's County was achieved.
This is equivalent to having a force of its own.
