Chapter Twenty-Three: The Counsellor Lies in the Man

Liu Xian picked up the square towel on the table, wiped the grease off his mouth, tapped his fingers on the table, and everyone was full of wine and food, and began to talk about serious things. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Now I have a general understanding of the situation in our health center. I'm not stunned, I won't let you go directly to the door to forcibly collect taxes, you can rest assured! ”

As soon as Liu Xian's words came out, Guangtianyun, Shi Gaozhuo and others did breathe a sigh of relief. They knew that Liu Xian had just joined the Jinyi Guard, and they were worried that he didn't understand the twists and turns inside, so they directly let themselves and others come to the door and forcibly confront those squire clans, although they might be able to accept some silver taels at that time, but who knows what moths will come out afterwards?

"I carefully studied their files in the guard house today, and found that they have one thing in common! Do you know what it is? Liu Xian sat on the main seat, his fingers slowly tapping on the table, and his eyes looked around at everyone present like a sharp sword. He didn't plan to say his own method at the beginning, he wanted to test his subordinates to see if there were a few talents with good brains who were worth promoting.

The brocade officials present fell into a long silence, obviously thinking about Liu Xian's problem, only Guang Tianyun's expression of wanting to speak and stopping attracted Liu Xian's attention.

"Guang Zongqi, you seem to know, tell me about it."

"My lord, I think that the common denominator of those squire clans is that they love money and are greedy for life and afraid of death." Guang Tianyun swallowed his saliva a little nervously, and said with little wings.

Liu Xian smiled slightly, gave Guang Tianyun an approving look, and added, "That's right! Greed for life and fear of death is their weakness, and our Jinyiwei file clearly shows their weakness! These people usually try to avoid the taxes due to the imperial court and my brocade guards, but they have paid a lot of protection fees for some powerful people in the rivers and lakes! Why? It is because we are people in the system that we must use the methods within the system to deal with them, and it is precisely the outlaws who are not in the system that they are most afraid of. ”

"Then you say, knowing this weakness, what method should we use to deal with them?" Liu Xian threw out another question.

"Find some outlaws to come to your door and collect protection money?" Shi Gaozhuo said tentatively.

Liu Xian glanced at him, and sighed secretly in his heart: This Shi Gao Zhuo is more than brave, but his brain is not fast enough, but Guang Tianyun is not bad.

"How can ordinary outlaws threaten them? I found out that there was a news in the secret note recently submitted, which said that there was a case in Pengcheng, near my Jiangcheng, where the disciples of the sect had wiped out the richest man. ”

The Jinyi Wei present looked at a loss except for Guang Tianyun, and he didn't know what Liu Xian's intention was when he said this, this case of destroying the door and collecting taxes seemed to be a matter of eight poles, right?

Liu Xian sighed, how could this Ming Dynasty's Jinyi Guard be so different from the ancient Jinyi Guard of the earth? Although it is also ruthless and vicious, the ability to collect money is more than 108,000 miles. If the ancient brocade guards of the earth deal with these squire clans, it is not like playing? The means of scraping money once a day can be used for a year without repeating the same!

"Do you understand divergent thinking? Now that there is a case of the richest man in the neighboring city, how will those squire clans who are greedy for life and afraid of death react? Liu Xian looked at the subordinates who were still confused in front of him, and almost couldn't hold back his complaint.

"Since they are greedy for life and afraid of death, of course they are very afraid, fearing that such a thing will fall on their heads. If there is news at this time, it is said that the disciples of that sect have come to our Jiangcheng to lurk and want to deal with them.

What will they do? Find someone to protect them, of course! Will they go to the people in the Yamen? No, because those people are! They can only come to us Jinyiwei, since they have asked us, do you think this tax will not be collected? Liu Xian asked and answered all the problems by himself, although Guang Tianyun guessed his thoughts a little, but he didn't expect to be so comprehensive and couldn't help but be stupid.

Guang Tianyun, who has a relatively smart head, is still like this, not to mention Shi Gaozhuo's wooden brocade guards, who are looking at Liu Xian with the eyes of the gods at this time.

At first, Liu Xian felt secretly cool when they looked at them like that, but after a while, they still looked at it like this, and they felt a little unbearable, he couldn't help but pat the table and asked, "Since you know how to solve it, why are you still staying here?" ”

"Hurry up and send those remnants of your subordinates to spread the news, remember that there can't be any Jinyi Wei in this matter, this matter has nothing to do with our Jinyi Wei! Got it? Liu Xian asked with a serious expression.

"I know!" was stared at by Liu Xian's eyes, and the original joyful mood of those brocade guards disappeared in an instant, and a trace of cold sweat broke out on their backs, and they nodded their heads again and again.

"Go ahead, I'll report the results tomorrow morning." Liu Xian waved his hand to signal them to leave, he picked up the remaining Piaoxiang Lu from the cup and took a sip, tasting the first-class wine of Piaoxianglou, his heart was flying, he didn't know whether it was good or bad for him to hand over this method of collecting money to them, and whether there would be good people in the future who would suffer unjustified disasters because of what he did today.

But it didn't take long for Liu Xian to sneer and pull himself out of his compassionate emotions, he was a mud bodhisattva crossing the river and it was difficult to protect himself, how could he still have this kung fu to worry about others? This is not like his selfish self at all, and he doesn't know why his mood swings have become more and more since he crossed over, and now he is still worried about some people he doesn't know.

Liu Xian drank all the wine in this cup, and he was already slightly drunk, so he got up and went to check out, wanting to go back to his hundred households to sleep well. However, people are not as good as heaven, and there will always be some unexpected people and things that come into their lives. Just as he took out the silver taels and was about to settle the bill, a slightly playful voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"Isn't this Brother Liu? Why haven't you seen you for many days, and you don't even care about the identity of a scholar in Jinyiwei? ”

Liu Xian turned around and looked back, a man wearing a Confucian shirt, still holding a folding fan depicting a lady's picture in the cold winter, as if fanning it moving, showing the demeanor of a talented man, but that face looked very courageous! A pair of extremely eye-catching inverted triangular eyes and a slightly sunken nose also owe him the confidence to go out to meet people.

"Yu Boxue?" Liu Xian was slightly stunned, this person's name was Yu Boxue, who was once Liu Xian's classmate, and he had always been at odds with him, and he often caused trouble and provoked him when he was studying.

"It's a shame that Brother Liu still remembers me, seeing each other today is fate, just when I'm going to go to the word meeting of my classmates, they may not see Brother Liu for a long time, why don't you go?" Although Yu Boxue said that it was a question sentence, his movements were not slow at all, and he pulled Liu Xian into the lobby on the first floor.

With the current martial arts realm of Liu Xian, it is too difficult for Yu Boxue to pull him, and originally Liu Xian didn't want to participate in it, after all, he was no longer a person from the same world as them, but he suddenly heard Diao Xiu'er's faint exclamation in the lobby, and he couldn't help but let his footsteps loosen and let Yu Boxue pull him away.

The lobby on the first floor of Piaoxiang Building is very spacious, surrounded by a circle of dining tables used by ordinary diners, and the inner circle is full of dining tables with desks, which are obviously specially used by Confucian scholars. The dining table is filled with a variety of fragrant pastries, cold dishes and wine, and the desk is placed with pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

There is a platform in the center of the lobby, and on the stage is Le Ji invited by Piaoxianglou from the music workshop, and this Le Ji is playing the piano on the stage. A melodious piano sound echoes in the spacious lobby.

As soon as Liu Xian stepped in, he saw that the inner position was already full of people wearing all kinds of Confucian shirts, and he could still recognize some people at a glance, Diao Xiu'er was standing at the nearest table inside with a sad face at this time.

"Brother Liu is here!" Yu Boxue shouted loudly as soon as he entered the door.

With this sound, the entire hall instantly stood still as if it had been magically powered, and there was no Confucian scholar's talk, and there was no sound of Le Ji's stroking the qin, and everyone looked at Liu Xian in a flying fish suit in a daze.

Yu Boxue seemed to have already guessed everyone's reaction, and continued in a loud voice that didn't care: "I happened to meet Brother Liu outside the door, so I invited you in, I guess you may not have heard Brother Liu sing poems and lyrics for a long time." He winked at everyone as he spoke.
