After Xiang Luyang and the others entered the city, they did not go to Zhouya first, but directly found a small shop to live in, and after everything was settled, several people sat down in the room.

Wu Ran first asked: "We have all arrived in Dengzhou, why don't we take office directly, what are we doing here?" ”

Xiang Luyang said: "I have an idea about taking office, and I will tell you about it now." ”

"First of all, the people who go to take office are not all of us, but me Qiushui, and the iron pillar, and the rest of the people, you will go out in a while, buy a courtyard near the yamen, you don't show up for the time being, I have other arrangements."

When Gao Biying heard that she didn't let her follow, she said a little anxiously: "We're all here, why don't you let us go to Zhouya with you?" ”

Xiang Luyang said: "We don't know Dengzhou yet, we can't leak all our strength, and for the sake of long-term planning, we can't concentrate all our forces together, we have to break up the existing forces and do diversification." ”

"I ask you not to take office with me, so that you can act separately and develop your own forces, whether it is a gang or a gang, in short, during the time I am the governor, you must cultivate your own forces."

"If we all gather together, relying on only a small Dengzhou Mansion, the development speed is too slow, within a year, no matter what method you use, you must gain a firm foothold on the ground in Shandong, which is the most basic requirement."

Ye Qiushui said: "A year? Isn't the time too rushed, can they do it? ”

Xiang Luyang said: "I don't care about the others, but the three of them, Squad Leader Luo, Wu Ran, and Marco must complete it, this is an order." ”

When the three of them reached the word order, they subconsciously stood up and said in unison: "Guarantee to complete the task." ”

After letting the three of them sit down, Xiang Luyang continued: "When developing our own forces, we must pay attention to the people's support, we can't blindly develop the forces, and ignore the people's will, we must realize that the people's will is our real strength, and only by getting the people's hearts can we have long-term development." ”

"You can rob houses, gather in the mountains and forests, and even kill people and sell goods, but the premise is that you must be cautious when you choose to attack, these people cannot be ordinary people, nor can they be past merchants.

The rich and unkind landlords, as well as the corrupt officials who are corrupt and pervert the law to sue the old man and return to his hometown, are your first choice, of course, your peers can also be the target of your attack. ”

Gao Biying said: "Then we all go to that area for activities, as far as I know, there are many gangs in this Shandong territory, and it is not very easy to gain a foothold in it." ”

Xiang Luyang said: "You can first move on the line from Dengzhou to Jinan, I will try my best to cooperate with your actions, in a short time, I will make the Haisha Gang and Wanghailou chaotic, you can take this opportunity to enter these two gangs, or establish a new gang to get in touch with them." ”

Ye Qiushui said: "When you stayed in the sky in the sea, did you have this idea?" ”

Xiang Luyang said: "I have always had ideas, but there is no suitable opportunity, this time I caught Haizhongtian, it may also be a gift from God to me to trust Zhizhou." ”

Ye Qiushui said: "Then when will they start acting?" ”

Xiang Luyang said: "This is not in a hurry, let them heal their injuries first, and we are based in Dengzhou Mansion, and we have to let them help in secret, our heels are unstable, and they will not do much." ”

Ye Qiushui said: "Then what are you going to do next?" ”

Xiang Luyang said: "The old rule, first serve a private visit, and then pick the biggest grievances of the people, burn three fires, do a few people, and bring the people's hearts over first." ”

Ye Qiushui said: "It's okay, first establish your own prestige, and the rest will be easy to do." ”

At this time, in Zhouyan, Dengzhou Tongzhi Wan Younian was chatting with Lei Meng, the head of the Dengzhou branch of the Haisha Gang.

Lei Meng said: "It's been almost a month, why hasn't this new governor come to take office yet." ”

Wan Younian said: "It's good if he doesn't come." ”

Lei Meng smiled and said: "He is not afraid to come, in the past two years, we have been in the state mansion, and several governors have come to the state before and after, and in the end, not all of you have been squeezed out." ”

Wan Younian glanced at Lei Meng and said, "You are becoming more and more unruly now, how did I explain your affairs?" ”

Lei Meng saw that Wan Younian was a little displeased, and hurriedly said: "I released the people on the day I received the text, and all the post stations from Dengzhou to the capital were monitored by my people, but I didn't wait for this Lord Xiang." ”

Wan Younian said: "It seems that this is another master who loves to play tricks, no matter what he does, he still implements according to our original plan, as long as he takes office, the people on your side will make trouble for me, I see that he has no one under him, how to govern this Dengzhou City." ”

Lei Meng said: "Don't worry, I have already arranged it." ”

Wan Younian said: "What happened to those people who always like to stop the sedan chair and shout grievances?" ”

Lei Meng said: "I have already controlled it, as long as you give an order, their heads will fall to the ground immediately." ”

Wan Younian said: "No need, release them all, let them cry out for injustice, I want to see how this Lord Xiang handles, if he is obedient, let him stay in Dengzhou, if he is not obedient, it is not too late for you to act." ”

Lei Meng said: "Isn't it too risky to do this, he is a person who believes in the king!" ”

Wan Younian said: "What are you afraid of, I'm still a nine-thousand-year-old person!" ”

Lei Meng said: "Then do as you order." ”

Wan Younian said: "By the way, haven't you young master found it yet?" ”

Lei Meng said: "It's not been three days now, and the entire Jinan Mansion is about to turn over, but there is no whereabouts of my son-in-law." ”

Wan Younian said: "This is not a good thing, when the time comes, you can use this matter to make a fuss, blow the wind in front of your helper, I am helping you to operate, if possible, get you a deputy helper." ”

Lei Meng stood up and hugged his fists and said, "Thank you Lord Wan for cultivating." ”

Wan Younian said: "As long as you listen to me well, this Haisha Gang will be yours sooner or later." ”

After sending Lei Meng away, Wan Younian gathered all the people from Zhou Ya together, looking at the people standing in the courtyard, Wan Younian said with a gloomy face: "The new Lord Zhizhou will take office in the next few days, what to do without me teaching you, right?" ”

After Wan Younian finished speaking, all the people didn't speak.

Wan Younian continued: "I know what some of you think, but I advise you to put this idea away, the previous governors are the best examples, the governors of Dengzhou are flowing water, but I am iron-clad for thousands of years, so you'd better take a long-term view and don't get yourself into trouble." ”

Seeing that everyone was silent, Wan Younian reprimanded for a while before letting everyone disperse.
