Chapter 236: The First Temptation
Now that one foot has been stepped in, it is bound to suppress one side and support the other...... This is the oldest and most practical stratagem.
But before Wang Shihua could act, the people on the other side automatically came to visit.
If you have to divide the two major forces in Shendao Town into classes: Wang Sanye represents the big landlord class on his side, and Xiao Mingli represents the emerging bourgeoisie, and the Xue family is also the surname of the town, so Mayor Xue naturally has to stand on Wang Sanye's side, otherwise, the clan will not spare him. With the fall of the Qing Dynasty, the emerging bourgeoisie naturally began to challenge the big landlord class, and in recent years, the contradictions between the two sides have gradually become white-hot. For Wang Shihua's joining, breaking the original pattern, Xiao Mingli is extremely welcome. Because Xiao Mingli and they are rich, because of the most basic factor of population, they are far from being the opponents of Mayor Xue's side. And on Wang Shihua's side, the most important thing is people, guns...
From the point that Wang Shihua attached importance to business from the beginning, the Wang family, under the leadership of Wang Shihua, was changing from a big landlord to a bourgeoisie. Of course, for Wang Shihua, who has always been obsessed with Shendao Town, the economy of Shendao Town is what he covets, so standing on Xiao Mingli's side is the most ideal scheme...... After swallowing Shendao Town, he naturally hoped that the more prosperous Shendao Town was, the better, and the more profits he would gain. Naturally, this point must be supported by the bourgeoisie.
"Master Wang, our brothers are visiting this time on behalf of the people of Shendao Town, asking you to severely punish Wang Guigui, a great evil..."
Facing Xiao Mingli's two brothers' fists and bowing, Wang Shihua hurriedly helped them up and said, "What is this doing, get up quickly... If there is anything, our own brother just said it bluntly behind closed doors, and it is too much to do this. ”
After everyone sat down, Xiao Mingli took out two silver tickets, handed them along the table, and said with a smile: "Since ancient times, it has been said: the soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first... We are happy that you have led troops to uphold justice this time. It's ......"
"Brother Xiao, you're out of sight, put it away, put it away." Wang Shihua hurriedly excused himself, but the corner of his eye swept to the silver ticket on it...... 10,000 oceans... Two is 20,000 oceans.
"Shihua, listen to me, this money is not mine, really, don't look at me like that. This money was collected by the people and rich families of Shendao Town, and it meant nothing else, it was to express a little reward and condolences to the righteous teacher. ”
Wang Shihua was overjoyed: If he moved a little and said it gently, the rich people in Shendao Town had a reaction, and it seemed to be good at present. But the problem is that with the stability of the trade route, Longtang Town is becoming more and more prosperous, and the Wang family is getting stronger and stronger...... His plan is even bigger: to swallow Sinking Knife Town, and the current step is to test the reaction of all parties.
Wang Shihua nodded, but he didn't answer, he didn't refuse, and Xiao Mingli didn't mention the money again. On the contrary, Xiao Mingyi, who was on the side, said with a smile: "Shihua, we are not friends for a day or two, you also know that I am a straightforward person who can't hide my words, there are some things I want to say bluntly, don't you take it to heart if you make a mistake?" ”
"Where is Second Brother Xiao, everyone is a friend, and I still know the truth of good medicine and bitterness. Tell me..."
"You and Wang Sanye have already made a quarrel like this, you must still have a backhand, I don't know if you will raise taxes next?"
The so-called tax increase is actually to ask if there will be a card to block the entry and exit of the caravan in Shendao Town. Because on the land route, the Wang family has already controlled half of the entry and exit of Shendao Town, and if a card is set up, it will definitely affect the prosperity of Shendao Town, and the biggest loss is the interest group represented by Xiao Mingli...... In this regard, Wang Shihua's strategic vision of using geographical advantages to force Shendao Town has been greatly rewarded.
When Wang Shihua heard this, he was a little disappointed in his heart, but he was right to think about it: no one is stupid, and before the shape is clear, how many people will be impulsive enough to stand in line immediately? What's more, on the side of an outsider like yourself?
"Second Brother Xiao, what you said made me blush. After being in contact with me for so long, don't you know that I, Wang Shihua, have always been: people don't offend me, I don't offend people; If anyone sins against me, I will sin... Since it was the so-called Third Master Wang who was making trouble with me this time, then I must show something to them. As for the rest, I, Wang Shihua, will not be angry with others. ”
"Huh... Ha... Shihua is doing great things, second brother, what you are asking is really not authentic. Xiao Mingli taught his younger brother with a smile, and his heart was greatly excited: he was naturally happy to see his opponent being suppressed.
"Big brother is right. Shihua, I'm sorry..."Xiao Mingyi hurriedly cooperated and stood up to apologize to Wang Shihua.
Wang Shihua returned the salute with a smile, then slapped his forehead and smiled at Xiao Mingyi: "The second brother reminded me right, otherwise I would have forgotten that I have this card in my hand." ”
"Someone..."
"Master, what do you command?"
Wang Shihua ordered in front of the Xiao family's brothers: "Pass the order, from today onwards, the goods of the Wang family in Shendao Town will be taxed ten times." If you dare not to hand it over, you will be seized with people and goods. In addition, take my prayer post to explain to the Tian family, borrow their road to do something, if not for anything else, just for the Wang family in Shendao Town. You got it? ”
This is to completely block the land trade route of the Wang family in Shendao Town.
"Got it..."
"Also, let it go, whoever dares to smuggle goods to the Wang family in Shendao Town, I will even rob his family...... Kindness... All of them were gone. ”
"Yes..."
After waiting for the next person to go down, Wang Shihua changed his mind, picked up the teacup, and saluted the two. Take a moment to drink tea and organize your thoughts.
After taking two sips of tea, Wang Shihua smiled and said, "Big brother, second brother, I know that you don't deal with Mayor Xue." But I can only help for a while, not for a long time. ”
After the Xiao brothers glanced at each other, Xiao Mingli sighed: "Yes... The differences between our two sides are getting bigger and bigger, how can we get it if we go on like this~..."
"Heh... Scold... Even the bandits know that as long as someone has a gun in this world, even the government will not dare to provoke you. You have money and guns, but the key is that you don't have people. For example, the Shendao Battalion, although you originally pooled the money to form it, but the people were from them, so in this way, you are equivalent to giving them a dowry. Scold... Heh..."
"Shihua, you're right, but this is a congenital deficiency, and we can't do anything about it. By the way, Shihua, do you have any good ideas? ”
This is a tentative conversation between the two sides.
Seeing that the other party was very cooperative, getting closer and closer to his tentative purpose, Wang Shihua became happier and happier, but his face became more and more solemn.
"The Shendao Battalion is the only recognized weapon in the town, and if you catch it, you can solve every problem."
"Hey~... Shihua, don't you know, even if Luo Yu is replaced, the people below are still their people, and they are useless. ”
"Then replace the entire Sinking Knife Battalion..."
The Xiao family brothers were stunned for a moment, then shook their heads with a wry smile and did not speak. Seeing this, Wang Shihua didn't mention it anymore, and instead talked about something else: the first temptation was a failure. The other party's non-answer can express their vigilance against Wang Shihua more than any explanation. Even if they are at a disadvantage, the local concept is strict, and the resistance is needless to say. And Wang Shihua is not in a hurry, after all, it depends on the reactions of all parties.
Wang Shirong has a hot temperament, and he was stopped by Wang Shihua just now, but he was very unhappy. If he's not happy, someone has to be unlucky...
Seeing Wang Shihua talking to the guests, he didn't bother to go in to say hello, and came to the street with twenty or thirty guards, wandering around the world.
When I walked to a restaurant, I saw a guard pointing to the signboard of the restaurant and shouting, "Uncle... It reads 'Wang's Restaurant', could it be opened by the Wang family in Shendao Town? ”
As soon as Wang Shirong, who was full of anger and had nowhere to vent, heard this, his eyes were about to rush in, and he was hugged by the guard: "Uncle... It's better to ask clearly, so as not to make a mistake. ”
"Lao Tzu doesn't care if he smashes it wrong, since he dares to hit the signboard of the Wang family, and it is not opened by our Wang family, then he still asks a fart... Give Lao Tzu to go over and smash it..."
The three-eyed cat has been with Wang Shirong for the longest time, understands Wang Shirong's temper, and immediately smiled: "Uncle... Asking can't delay time. Besides, if you make a mistake, won't you ruin your reputation in front of your friends? ”
Wang Shirong valued the reputation of the rivers and lakes, and when he heard this, he really stopped. The three-eyed cat hurriedly went to ask passers-by and learned that this restaurant was really opened by Wang Sanye.
"Huh... Ha... This is called the narrow road of the enemy, which is really good. Wang Shirong's face glowed, but he was not in a hurry to go in and smash the field, but calmly ordered: "If you go in, you will smash it, and it will reach the ears of friends in the rivers and lakes, and I think that I, Wang Shirong, am narrow-minded and bullying." Don't smash it, Lao Tzu is panicked with this evil breath in his heart. So be it... Wait a minute......"
After one of the guards turned around and ran to move the troops, Wang Shirong walked into the 'Wang's Restaurant' with the guards showing off their might.
"Welcome to the shop, I don't know how many of you have?"
Wang Shirong pulled the shopkeeper over and shouted viciously: "Your eyes are used to vent your anger... Don't see so many of us? Lead the way. ”
"It's... Yes..."
When he came to the hall on the first floor, Wang Shirong glanced at it, saw that the business was good, and there were many audiences, so he immediately pointed to the empty table on the side and shouted, "I'm in a good mood today, so I'll eat here." ”
The other two tables of guests hurriedly checked out and left under the angry eyes of the guards.
The shopkeeper smiled flatteringly while wiping the table: "I don't know if you guys want to eat something?" ”
pushed the shopkeeper away and shouted, "Give Lao Tzu three tables of your signature dishes here." ”
When the shopkeeper heard this, he glanced at everyone, and said with a smile: "The store pays the bill first and then serves the food, please ...... it."
"What?" Wang Shirong stood up, raised the shopkeeper in front of him again, and said angrily: "How can there be a reason in the world to give money first and then eat?" What's the matter, is your restaurant a black shop? ”
The shopkeeper and the shopkeepers are unlucky: they didn't participate in the action of going to Wangjia Cargo Station this morning to make trouble, and they don't know Wang Shirong, the big devil, otherwise, there will never be anything to follow......
