Listening to the sound of gongs and drums seemed to be getting closer and closer, and finally, a knock on the door sounded, and the sound of gongs and drums seemed to stop outside his door and did not move.

Chen Tao and his students couldn't help but be curious, and said that they seemed to be coming for themselves outside.

Without much thought, Chen Tao and his students walked out of the room, opened the courtyard door outside, and saw Wanhua standing outside the door with dozens of Tiger Army sergeants at this time, looking at him with a smile on his face, and there were more than a dozen men next to him who were in charge of beating gongs and drums, all with smiles on their faces.

And there are even more people watching the excitement, and there are at least hundreds of people on the inside and outside three floors.

"Generalissimo, ,,,, why are you here?"

Although he didn't know why Wanhua came, out of politeness, Chen Tao still bowed to Wanhua.

"Hahaha,,,"

Wan Hua laughed a few times, and then returned the salute and said loudly: "Mr. Gaoyi, for my Tiger Army, it was five thousand taels of silver as soon as I made a move, so generous, how could I not come to thank you in person!" ”

As soon as Wanhua's words came out, all the onlookers couldn't help but let out a sigh of "wow", and said in their hearts: This Chen Tao, I can't see it, as soon as he makes a move, it is 5,000 taels, so wouldn't his net worth be at least tens of thousands of taels, hundreds of thousands of taels!

There are also hearts that say: Hmph, this Chen Tao, it's a shame that he is a good man, and now he is so brazen, he actually took refuge in the thief at once, and left the Ming Dynasty and loyalty and filial piety behind, and I don't know how to read his sage book?

The common people are not good at hiding their inner thoughts, what they think in their hearts, what expressions on their faces, although they don't say it, but anyone can see it.

Seeing them like this, Chen Tao had a hard time.

God, God, I Chen Tao don't say how tough I am, but at least I am also a saint's son, I still know a little loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, and where will I go to the thief and return it to the thief. If I hadn't tried to trap that thief, how could I have anything to do with him!

But the iron-clad facts can't help but be denied by him, especially now that Wanhua is in front of him, it's not easy for him to open his eyes and say nonsense, so Chen Tao at this time is also speechless.

Touching the beads of sweat on his forehead, Chen Tao said to Wanhua: "Why should the generalissimo be so polite, didn't you thank you last night?" Where do you need to come to the door in person! ”

"Yes, Mr. is the first person to take the initiative to labor our army since the formation of the Tiger Army, so warmly, I naturally want to thank you well."

Wan Hua said, it was a big move, and immediately there were two Tiger Army sergeants, holding a plaque covered with a red cloth.

When he got closer, Wanhua smiled and motioned for Chen Tao to lift the red cloth.

Chen Tao was helpless, although he was reluctant, but he couldn't help it, he forced himself to squeeze out a smile, and uncovered the red cloth on the plaque, only to see five big characters written on it,

"Fengxiang No. 1"

These five words are written vigorously and powerfully, and the momentum is extraordinary, and the people who are watching can't help but marvel.

Then Wanhua smiled and said to the onlookers: "Mr. Chen sacrificed 5,000 taels of silver for my Tiger Army.

Today, I would like to send the five big words of "Fengxiang No. 1", which is also to praise Mr. Chen's high righteousness, no matter when in the future, Mr. Chen and his family, if they need help in something, they can come to me directly, and no one can stop them. ”

When the people heard this, they also suddenly realized that this plaque was equivalent to an unimpeded token, and Chen Tao and his family could see Wanhua anytime and anywhere in the future.

In this way, it can be regarded as Wanhua showing an attitude to everyone, if Chen Tao and his family encounter any trouble in the future, they can come to Wanhua, and Wanhua will administer justice to them.

After thinking about it, many people were also satisfied with Wanhua's statement, and said that this thief also has a bit of conscience, and his character is okay, not the kind of person who wipes his ass and leaves after eating, it seems that under his rule in the future, it will not be too bad to think about.

The people have this kind of thinking, which is exactly what Wanhua wants to see when he does this today.

Now that the Tiger Army has just occupied Fengxiang Mansion, there is no public opinion base here, and in order to win the hearts and minds of the people, all methods that can be used to get closer to the people can be used.

It happened that Chen Tao gave 5,000 taels of silver to work for the Tiger Army last night, and Wanhua could take this opportunity to convey a message to the people, what message?

This information is that a well-informed figure like Chen Tao has now expressed his agreement with the Tiger Army, which shows that the Tiger Army has merit, and under the rule of the Tiger Army in the future, life can be lived in the same way, and even better and better.

Sure enough, this information was soon realized by the common people, and when the people looked at Wanhua and the tiger army, they no longer had the fear, indifference, and hatred they had begun to have.

Everyone said in their hearts: Even a man like Chen Tao has begun to have a relationship with the Tiger Army, so what do we small people still hate the Tiger Army, anyway, the world is the world of the Zhu family, and we still care who sits in the country and lives our own lives.

Chen Tao also felt this change in the mood of the people, Chen Tao was angry in his heart, and he couldn't wait to strangle Wanhua to death on the spot.

But he couldn't do anything, and he couldn't argue, and he could only admit all this.

At this time, Chen Tao regretted it in his heart, he knew this, I shouldn't have given you any troops last night, I should have taken all the silver away, if you don't let me take it away, it doesn't matter if you kill me, if that's the case, there won't be today.

Chen Tao's students were helpless when they saw this, no matter whether Wanhua did this today, intentionally or unintentionally, this was an unsolvable move, in desperation, the student had to lean into Chen Tao's ear and whispered: "Sir, since the matter has come to this, Mr. can only go with the flow." ”

"Hey!"

Chen Tao sighed in his heart, helpless, squeezed out a smile in every possible way, and raised his hand to Wan Hua and said: "The humble house is simple, please don't dislike it, go inside for a cup of tea." ”

"Hehehe,,,"

Wanhua laughed a few times, very happy.

"In that case, thank you, sir."

Wan Hua said, and then bowed to the people, and after the salute, Wan Hua stepped in with Chen Tao.

Also entering with Wanhua were Wang Wu and Wang Liu, and the rest of the guard sergeants were stationed outside Chen's house with their heads held high, guarding Wanhua's safety at all times.
