Chapter 448: Xiliang Xing (80)
The cold sweat on Li Dejiang's forehead flowed, but when he heard this, he also relaxed, and said with a smile: "Thank you General, in the future, my four major families will definitely obey orders, and I will never dare to have two hearts." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
In fact, according to Luo Yi's previous thoughts, he wanted to behead Li Dejiang, Li Dejiang is the head of the four major families, with countless resources, countless contacts, and the most important thing is that among the four major families, he is full of words, and his mind is rebellious.
Such a person will eventually be a disaster if he stays, so Luo Yi wants to behead him, and then help Wang Youcheng to ascend to the throne, Wang Youcheng takes the initiative to surrender, he must have no ambition, such a person is easier to control.
But now that Li Dejiang has relented, Luo Yi has also changed his mind, he can keep Li Dejiang first, monitor it, and if he finds something wrong, he can clean it up at any time. After all, Li Dejiang is powerful, and it is still useful for the future development of Longxi, and if he is killed, it will also be a big loss for him.
After dealing with the affairs of Li Dejiang and the three of them, Luo Yi left the cell, and the three of them also left, Luo Yi ordered the three of them to hand over the required materials within half a month, 20,000 taels of gold and 40,000 quintals of grain, all of which were transported to the Pingxing Mansion.
In this regard, the three of them did not dare to have any objections, and agreed one after another.
In addition to Li Dejiang, Sun Fu, and Wu Zuliang, there was also Wang Youcheng, whom Luo Yi summoned the next day.
Wang Youcheng came to Luo Yi's county mansion and said, "Youcheng was summoned to come, is there anything wrong with the general?" β
He looked at Luo Yi nervously, and cold sweat broke out in his palms.
Luo Yi hasn't dealt with him yet, and he hasn't said how to deal with it, and there have been no rumors about it in the past few days, which makes him very uneasy.
Now that Luo Yi has summoned him, he must have said this, he couldn't help praying in his heart, but don't lose his life.
Luo Yi saw that Wang Youcheng was trembling a little nervously, he couldn't help laughing, and said, "What are you shaking, I won't eat you again." Don't be nervous, take it easy. β
"Even Li Dejiang, Sun Fu, and Wu Zuliang have been released, how can I kill you? So, there is absolutely no need for you to be afraid. β
Hearing this, Wang Youcheng was better.
Yes, Li Dejiang and Sun Fuke were the leaders, and they were the most active when they rebelled, and they didn't even deal with them, so how could they deal with him, he made a great contribution and sacrificed the city.
Luo Yi asked people to bring a stool and let Li Dejiang sit down, and then said: "Do you know why Li Dejiang and Sun Fu were released?" β
Wang Youcheng shook his head, he didn't know.
After Li Dejiang, Sun Fu and Wu Zuliang were released yesterday, they didn't dare to see each other, and they also ordered the family members in his house to disappear as long as they were from other families, for fear that Luo Yi would misunderstand, so he didn't know the reason at all.
"It's... I don't know. β
Luo Yi said: "That's because they promised that the four major families were willing to give 20,000 taels of gold and 40,000 loads of grain, so I let them go." β
"These four major families, but they also include you, Wang Youcheng, are you willing to give money?"
How dare Wang Youcheng be unwilling, he is most willing now, give up his wealth to avoid disasters, he arched his hand and smiled: "Yes, I must be willing in the future!" β
"That's good."
Luo Yi nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "General Ben knows that you are the most reasonable, and you are indeed much more sensible than Li Dejiang, Sun Fuzhi and others." β
"Since you are so sensible, then I won't let you suffer, I'm ready to..."
Speaking of this, Luo Yi suddenly lowered his voice, and said mysteriously: "I am ready to support your Wang family as the head of the four major families in Longxi, and easily suppress the Li family, what do you think?" But I've only mentioned it to you, and you can't leak it out. β
Luo Yi blurted out such an important matter, which made Wang Youcheng a little surprised.
At the same time, he seriously considered what Luo Yi said, but the result of thinking about it made him shake his head again and again, and said, "General, this... I'm afraid it's not good, I don't have that ambition, besides, the Li family has a wide range of connections and a lot of wealth, but it is not comparable to me, and the four major families have always been headed by Li Dejiang over the years. β
Luo Yi could see that Wang Youcheng really had no ambitions, and he didn't want the benefits he gave for nothing; And from his words, it seems that he is a little afraid of Li Dejiang and unwilling to compete with Li Dejiang.
Luo Yi smiled and said, "No, you must be the head of the four major families!" β
The more Wang Youcheng is like this, the more he feels that this decision is the right one.
Moreover, once Wang Youcheng does this, it will definitely cause Li Dejiang's dissatisfaction, and in the future, the Wang family and the Li family will no longer care about iron as before, which is of great benefit to Luo Yi, and the possibility of the family rebellion has been reduced.
Only when the clans bite each other and fight each other can Longxi have peace.
Wang Youcheng smiled bitterly, after thinking about it, he said: "Okay, everything small is up to the general." β
"That's right! ~β
Luo Yi said: "You go first, I will arrange these things, go back and prepare the food and gold, and I will send someone to get it." β
"Yes, the little one."
Wang Youcheng answered and slowly withdrew from the county government.
***********
On this day, Pan Long took a team of people to Li Dejiang's mansion.
What are you going to do? Of course, it is the cashier, the grain.
Before that, Luo Yi told him that 20,000 taels of gold and 40,000 quintals of grain were given to them in the snowy region, hearing this, Pan Long couldn't close his mouth with joy, he didn't expect that Luo Yi would be so happy to do things, and he said before that he would wait until Solo Fei and Luo Tong came back, but he didn't expect that this matter would be done after less than half a month.
For this matter, he was very concerned and personally led the soldiers to Li Dejiang's mansion.
When Li Dejiang saw Pan Long coming, he didn't dare to slack off, let alone offend, so he called Pan Long in, served him with good food and drink, and then asked people to move the prepared things to the courtyard on the one hand.
Pan Long counted it, Li Dejiang didn't frame him, and there were really 200,000 taels of silver and 40,000 quintals of grain in the courtyard.
Originally, it was going to give gold, but in a short time, it was not possible to draw so much gold at all, only silver.
Anyway, it's all the same price, and Pan Long doesn't bother to care, with these, they can be in the snow region for several years without worrying about food and clothing, no longer have to go hungry, and they don't have to be confused by the Qiang people.
"Hahaha... Okay, you're good. β
Pan Long laughed and praised: "You are really sensible, you know that you don't have to do it without me doing it." β
Pan Long had cooperated with Li Dejiang before, and he also took three thousand taels of silver from Li Dejiang, and now it has been transported back to the snowy region, so Pan Long is very familiar with Li Dejiang.
On the other hand, Li Dejiang also knows Pan Long and knows Pan Long's character.
He said, "Pan... General Pan, I hope you will say more good things for our four families in front of the general, and I thank you here. β
Pan Long was the happiest now, and replied: "Don't worry, I will definitely say good things for you." β
After packing up the money and food, Pan Long left the Li Mansion with these things.
