The materials around Taiyuan were requisitioned by the Central Army on a large scale, looking at a cart full of grain animal carts into Taiyuan City, Yan Xishan's commissioner stomped his feet with hatred, but there was no way, the old chief ordered three times, Enwei and asked these village chiefs and township chiefs to do a good job in the ideological work of the villagers, not to provide a stitch of support to the Central Army, but unfortunately the tongue is red, the eyes are black, but the silver is white, no matter how good the promise is, the threat is empty, the Central Army buys things and gives money, and gives a big price, don't talk about the villagers, Even those old village chiefs couldn't help but be moved, since the opening of the world, such a thing as officials and soldiers giving money is something that can be encountered but not sought even in peacetime. In fact, Ye didn't care that these people had no backbone, in the First Sino-Japanese War, the Dongying people relied on buying things to give money, even if they were slaughtered, they didn't rob them, and they turned the hinterland of the enemy country into local nourishment in Manchuria outside the Guan.

It is said that Yan Xishan kicked over the table that day and scolded the officials who were sent out for a bloody shower, and then he had no choice but to make another plan, after all, the authorities are not nobles, which one did not pass all the way from below and kill them, even if Yan Xishan was also a child who carried the burden everywhere back then, how could he not know what the people thought, he did not buy food for the people to be angry with the central government, It's just that I didn't expect the people to be so enthusiastic, and they hated themselves even more for being weak, Shan Fan sprinkled some gold and silver at this time, maybe those people would be stable, but when he left Taiyuan too hastily, Chang Zhenbang watched it tightly, so that the millions of silver dollars in Shanxi Bank were empty, so that now he has to work hard to do anything, every time he thinks of this, he will always want to tear Chang Zhenbang alive and swallow it.

"Report!"

"What's the matter?"

Yan Xishan, who was annoyed, raised his head and asked coldly.

The people of Wutai, Daixian and other places resold grain, and the local governor not only could not stop it, but it became more and more violent.

Yan Xishan stood up with both eyebrows raised after hearing this, and said fiercely: "Nonsense! These places have been occupied by the Restoration Army, and even if the common people see how much money they see, they will not lose their lives for the sake of a silver dollar, which is clearly Lu Zhonglin's conspiracy to seize power, and he has written a pretence! Saying that, Yan Xishan coughed violently, and when the adjutant saw it, he hurriedly patted him on the back and said, "Old sir, your body is important!" Yan Xishan said with a smile: "It's okay to be a little thing!" Look at you nervous, we haven't had a good life in Shanxi yet, and my body won't collapse! ”

The adjutant smiled, turned around and brought over a cup of tea, and when no one was paying attention, he quietly stretched out his little thumb and put it into the tea, and then quickly pulled it out, handed it to Yan Xishan, and said, "Old sir, take a sip of tea and moisten your throat." ”

Yan Xishan stretched out his hand to take his tea, and was about to drink it, but his eyes swept lightly, and he saw the small tea beads on the adjutant's fingers, and he didn't say anything, quietly put the teacup on the table, sighed and said: "People's hearts are not ancient, and Shanxi's affairs are not easy to handle." ”

The adjutant said flatteringly: "The old chief is too worried, your kindness, how can our people in Shanxi not remember?" If it weren't for your prestige, our Shanxi would not have been destroyed like the surrounding places. ”

"That was in the past, but now the resurgence of disputes in Shanxi is because of me, I don't know how many people in Shanxi want me to die!"

"Where are we Shanxi people who have the old chief who said so unbearable!" The adjutant said with a sneer: "Although there are a lot of people who eat inside and outside, but most of the people are still oriented towards the old chief, since the old chief was stationed in Shenchi, except for Kong Geng's grandson, the rest of the Shanxi army have come over." This is what the people want, and Rao is always in power, and there is nothing to do. ”

Yan Xishan glanced at him and said with a smile: "These people who came over, how do you know if these people are sincere or ill-intentioned?" ”

The adjutant was stunned for a moment, and then said a little unhappily: "The old chief is afraid that he will chill the hearts of the brothers when he says this, who in the world does not know that Lord Chang has a command of the world and ranks in the ninety-five, Rao is like this, the big guy still threw off his arms and followed the old chief and Chang Zheng to make trouble, how could he have ill intentions?" ”

Seeing that he was really angry, Yan Xishan couldn't help but smile and pushed the tea on the table over. said: "It's me who doesn't speak, come to this cup of tea and you drink it, so you have the right to do it, I will compensate you." ”

The adjutant was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Yan Xishan to compensate him, and after reacting, he waved his hand again and again: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be!" This is the old chief's tea, how can the lower official drink it? ”

"Tea is tea, not poison, what can't be drunk?" Yan Xishan said lightly: "Between brothers, between the upper and lower levels, and between concubines, there will always be times when teeth touch lips, if you are wrong, you will admit that there is nothing to say, and if you are wrong, you will cover your eyes and ears." ”

"The old chief taught you a lesson!"

"Drink it, and you will remember that I, Yan Xishan, have been majestic for more than ten years, and I will also say the wrong thing. I don't shy away from it, I hope you don't have any scruples, just like if the words just now are spread by others, I'm afraid that the military will be unstable! ”

Seeing him say this, the adjutant had to pick up the tea and drink it, Yan Xishan saw that he drank it calmly, and did not shirk, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, after the adjutant drank it, he held a new cup of tea for him again, this time he secretly paid attention, and saw that the adjutant was familiar with pouring tea, and there was nothing inappropriate, probably a little fierce when it was poured, and it was inevitable that it would splash out, at this time the adjutant was hurriedly tossing up, and it was inevitable that there would be some tea in his hand, but it was reasonable, he still knew about this person, the young master of the Yan family, It also has a little to do with himself, the master who comes to open his mouth for food and clothes on weekdays, this adjutant's position is just a transition for him, I remember that when I first met him, the scholar was angry and disdainful of serving tea and pouring water, but I didn't expect him to do this without regrets now, although it was a little clumsy, but it also seemed a little sincere.

After Yan Xishan was greatly moved, he had to draw a few question marks in his mind, this kid's waist is soft so fast, I'm afraid he has other plans, thinking of this, his heart jumped unconsciously, and his intuition told him that this kid had a problem, he walked over gently, and suddenly scolded loudly: "Who let you do these things!" What are your plans! ”

The adjutant was stunned for a moment, and even yelled: ", do you think Lao Tzu is willing to do it, this is not what my uncle said, as long as I serve my uncle well, I will give Lao Tzu a head ......" When he said this, he suddenly woke up, which was a little embarrassing. He smiled stiffly, trembled and brought the tea over, and said, "Uncle, what you said just now ......"

"It's not a bad thing to be a little ambitious when you're young, but I'm afraid you can't be qualified for the position of regiment commander at your age!" Yan Xishan said with a smile, the hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit. This kid serves himself for fame and fortune, which is not bad, it is better than those guys who are in the name of flesh and blood, after all, with himself, there is the glory and wealth of these people. Thinking of this, Yan Xishan's heart finally let go, gently picked up the other party's tea, drank it slowly, watched the other party's every move, saw the other party eager to try and trembled, didn't know what to say for a while, but felt that he should express his position, so that the mouth opened and closed, and closed like a goldfish spitting bubbles, Yan Xishan couldn't help but laugh when he saw it: "You kid should follow your uncle to have a good experience, after a year and a half, Shanxi is too peaceful, and your uncle will give you a county hall to do, As for this regiment commander or something, you are still young, as long as you work hard, why worry about a regiment commander, that is, a brigade commander, and a division commander. ”

After some kind words, the adjutant's face was a little bloody, and he said boldly: "Don't be surprised by what I said just now, uncle, I am loyal to my uncle." This heart can be to the sun and the moon. ”

"Okay, I know your loyalty, in fact, what you just said is not bad, as long as I am here in Shanxi for a day, you will have an official seat, without me Yan Xishan, what are you? So I believe that your loyalty and filial piety are just office space, don't mention it anymore uncle, don't give people a premonition that there is no distinction between public and private, that's not good! ”

"Yes, sir!"

The adjutant saw that the tea in Yan Xishan's hand had been drunk, and wanted to pour a cup for him, but who knew that Yan Xishan waved his hand and refused: "Tea is a good thing, but drinking too much will hurt your body, you go out and bring me the recent situation of Shanxi's collection of grain and grass." If we want to fight, we must not only have good soldiers and good generals, but also have money and food. Go ahead! The adjutant went out quickly, and the moment the door closed behind him, the cold sweat on his head flowed down, he subconsciously looked at his little finger, and his heart palpitated, he didn't expect Yan Xishan, this old guy, to be so difficult to deal with, he actually let himself drink the tea, fortunately, this medicine was smeared on the teacup, not in the tea, otherwise wouldn't he have done useless work? Anyway, the medicine should be fine, and I drank some of the potion more or less, and those people said that this medicine is not only harmless for normal people, but has the effect of strengthening the body. Only those Western drugs that Yan Xishan ate could cause any hellish chemical effects, I hope these people didn't lie to themselves!

The military and political officials passing by at the door saw that his face was pale and cold sweat flowed, and they kindly asked, but he deduced that he had done something wrong and said the wrong thing, so Yan Xishan reprimanded him, and it was no big deal. Please let everyone be kind to watch, he moved those telegrams and official documents about the collection of money and grain in Shanxi, Yan Xishan glanced at him, and smiled seriously, his people had already told the situation after the adjutant went out, this kid's psychological quality is not bad, and he will be a good seedling in the future.

"Old Chief......

"What's wrong?"

"You have to pay attention to your body and take medicine on time, so that you can have the energy to clean up this mess in Shanxi."

"I know, men still have to be bold, it's not good for you to keep messing around with these trivial old ladies."

"The old chief taught me a lesson!"

"Go down!"
