Although the means are extremely disgraceful, when you want to climb up in this troubled world, blood and conspiracy are indispensable, and you have been mentally prepared, but now, you have a little sadness, Jiang Hong smiled self-deprecatingly, I don't know if my sadness is crocodile tears?

Jiang Hong patted his face vigorously, patted these things out of his mind, put on his mask, and put a smile on his face, this is what everyone wants to see, what everyone wants is a hero who saves them from fire and water, and heroes can't have conspiracy and tricks, so it's good not to let them know.

"It's really hypocritical." Jiang Hong secretly scolded himself.

After cleaning the battlefield, Wang Gang and Xu Hao also came over, taking a prisoner.

"My lord, we've caught a big fish."

Jiang Hong saw the gray-headed, thin and weak Kou Bai, is there such a thin big fish among the bandits?

"What's your name?" Jiang Hong asked.

Kou Bai coughed twice, looked at the person in front of him who controlled his life and death, thought about it, and told the truth.

"Below is the second leader of the Huaishui thief, Kou Bai, Kou Chengde."

"Yo ho, and the words, have you read a book?" Jiang Hong didn't expect that there was a cultural person among the Huaishui thieves, which was a little strange.

"Ahem, I read some poetry books in my early years."

"Then how did you fall into the grass? also sat down to be the second master. Jiang Hong asked curiously.

"In the middle of the road, I had to sell words on the side of the road, I didn't know that I was seen by the bandits, and I was forcibly kidnapped on the way home, and I was forced to give them advice, and the result was that the strategy in the next one seemed to work well, and the big boss appreciated me, so I was mentioned in the position of the second master." Kou Bai said a little embarrassed.

"That means that you have contributed a lot to the growth of the Huaishui thieves, which has led to the strength of the Huaishui thieves, so that you can't do anything about the capital of the lower Pi country, and you have also made a monthly money or something, and the scope of influence has also expanded to several surrounding counties, right?" Jiang Hong asked.

When Kou Bai saw Jiang Hong talking about Luo's own crime, his recitation was broken, and he stretched out his head with a knife and shrank his head with a knife, so he simply admitted it directly.

"Yes." At this moment, Kou Bai felt that his waist was straight, could this be the style and bones that the literati in the book said?

"It's amazing." Jiang Hong sighed, "Are you interested in coming to work under me?" ”

Clams? Kou Bai said that he heard it right, he didn't kill himself?

"What? Don't want to? It's better to be an official than a bandit these days. Jiang Hong said with a smile.

"Willing, willing." Kou Bai hurriedly nodded in agreement, I don't know where I lost the wind bones just now? You say it's a bone, sorry, can you eat it?

"Huang Yuan, this guy will be handed over to you first, let him help you do this little thing, don't be too tired yourself." Jiang Hong turned around and said, patting Huang Yuan's shoulder.

"No." Huang Yuan said with some emotion.

Looking at the somewhat mottled, black and red city walls, the next thing is to get the position of the county order in his hands, but he doesn't know much about the forces in the county, and he doesn't know who to turn to, gifts are inevitable, fortunately Cheng Feng is greedy for a lot of money, and Jiang Hong is a little glad that he has done Cheng Feng, otherwise he doesn't even have the money to give gifts.

After sending away the reinforcements from Ping'an and Gaoyou, Jiang Hong breathed a sigh of relief, damn it, they are all bloodsuckers, Nima took a lot of money from Lao Tzu without spending a single soldier, and when Lao Tzu is developed, you will feel better, Jiang Hong scolded secretly.

In the following days, Jiang Hong took the newly collected Kou Bai and a cart of property to Guangling City to be a boy who scattered wealth, and handed over all the matters in Sheyang City to Huang Yuan to deal with, under his own training, Huang Yuan has a tendency to change from a military general to a civil official, Jiang Hong complained.

Jiang Hong didn't expect that he had made such a great contribution, plus giving gifts everywhere, but he didn't expect to suffer a lot of white eyes, especially those big families in the city, who were very dissatisfied with their practice of almost eradicating the Zhou family, and some of the two families even closed their doors.

However, the gift is not given in vain, and the role is also there, and Guangling's Taishou Zhang Chao has a very good impression of Jiang Hong, Zhang Chao Jiang Hong said that he doesn't know anything Zhang Chao, but his Zhang Miao Jiang Hong still knows, isn't it the guy who is said to be friends with Cao Cao and Yuan Shao?

Zhang Chao was humble and polite, well-versed in righteousness, and knew that after Jiang Hong repelled the thieves and saved the people of Sheyang, coupled with the propaganda of some bribe-takers, he admired Jiang Hong very much, and the two talked very happily.

"I see that Master Jiang is still young, but he has such good achievements, I don't know if there are words?" Zhang Chao asked suddenly.

"Well, there hasn't been one." Jiang Hong replied with some embarrassment.

"It just so happens that Lord Yuan Sui is famous far and wide, and he is a famous scholar, and he just happened to be the next Taifu Peng in my mansion today, why don't you let Lord Yuan give Brother Jiang a word, I don't know what to do?"

"My subordinates can't ask for it." Jiang Hong replied, yes, the person who sent the word came, I just hope that the one who took it is not too ugly.

Yuan Sui was summoned in, and after hearing Zhang Chao's suggestion, he observed Jiang Hong, Yuan Sui saw that Jiang Hong was introverted and extraordinary, coupled with the merits he had made today, he frowned and thought about it, and said:

The old man thought that the sages of ancient times who had achieved great things were rarely recognized, praised and admired by the world at the beginning of their careers or even in the past generations. However, he stuck to his own will, studied and practiced diligently, and finally became a great cause, and Ze was later generations, mostly because of this. ”

"So, what does Master Jiang think, what about the word Shouzhi?"

Jiang Hong thought about it, it's okay, although it doesn't sound like that kind of unclear feeling, it's easy to understand, and it's not hard to hear, so let's do it.

"Thank you, Lord Yuan, for the word."

"Haha." Zhang Chao was very happy, "Shouzhi, in the future, for the benefit of the people of Guangling, we still need to work together." ”

When Jiang Hong heard this, he heard the meaning of Zhang Chao's words, and he was afraid that the position of the county commander had been stabilized, so he was overjoyed.

"This is a matter of subordinatery, and it is too much of a fool's praise."

"Now I and Shouzhi hit it off at first sight, why don't Shouzhi stay in the house for a few days, and have a good exchange with Shouzhi for my brother, I don't know what Shouzhi will do?"

When Jiang Hong heard that this was a great opportunity to have a good relationship with his boss, how could he miss it, so he replied:

"I'm afraid that my subordinates are shallow in their studies and delay the official duties of adults."

"How so? I talked with Shouzhi just now, Shouzhi's remarks are different from those pedantic people, they are very novel, Meng Gao was also greatly inspired, and he gained a lot, how can he say that he is a shallow learner? Zhang Chao retorted.

Good man, this is a good boss, Jiang Hong sighed in his heart, and no longer shirked and said:

"Then the subordinate will disturb the adult for a few days."

A few days later, Jiang Hong retired from Zhang Chao, took Kou Bai and the appointment documents, and happily returned to the sun.
