Chapter 454: Almost
The key to words is what people say. There are many things that can be done by talking, and in fact, many things in the world are mainly solved by talking, and even everything is inseparable from talking.
As the veteran of the Cao Gang in Bazhong City, Yan Xiaoshan is really well aware of this truth.
Therefore, at this banquet, Yan Xiaoshan made full use of language and tried to use the most perfect method to spread the news of the county zuntong bandits.
Yan Xiaoshan's method is actually not complicated, and it can even be regarded as simple.
First of all, throw this matter out in a seemingly casual tone, of course, it must not be abrupt, and the first way not to be abrupt is not to take the initiative to talk about this topic, so he waited for Lu Guan to mention the county first, and then he started to talk about this topic.
Then, when the other people at the dinner table disagreed, he stopped talking about it, but pretended that nothing had happened.
This is very important, he must not show the initiative, he even has to show passivity. In other words, he must make others feel that he is not interested in the topic at all, and even if you want to say it, I am not interested.
Only by changing from active to passive can you put yourself in a position where there is no suspicion.
After sowing this little seed in the hearts of the people, it is enough to let the seed take root and sprout through the wine.
And then there was silence.
Therefore, Lu Guan, who is not at a high level, and Wu Shou, who is even more low, began to be curious and began to take the initiative to ask.
Because the seeds of curiosity sprouted.
"Brother Yan, tell me how your friend explained it to you, let us all hear whether it's true or not, presumably it's better for you to think about it together. Lu Guan said, and had another drink with Yan Xiaoshan.
Yan Xiaoshan drained the wine in the cup, ate a few bites of food, burped and said, "I'll state first, I don't believe it." Don't call me a rumor. My friend said that he was standing not far from him at the time, saying that he was the confidant of the second master, and that the second master would never avoid him. In addition, my friend drank too much that day, so he told me this
。 Later, after he woke up, I asked him if he remembered what he said before, and he said that he didn't remember at all, and then I tentatively asked him if he had gone down the mountain with the second master, and he immediately denied it, saying never. But when I look at him, it's not that I can't remember it at all, but I don't admit it. He didn't dare admit that he had told secrets that he shouldn't have said. ”
Lu Guan said: "That's not necessarily, I think he may have really forgotten, does he like to drink on weekdays?"
"He drank a lot, but he couldn't have said something so important and forgotten it, I think he was just bragging, and there was only one possibility, and that was that he was telling the truth, but he didn't dare admit it. But the latter possibility is too small, and I certainly don't believe it anyway. Yan Xiaoshan said, draining a glass of wine.
Everyone drank too much, and the relationship between many people was much closer to each other as soon as they drank wine, for example, Yan Xiaoshan treated Lu Guan, it was rude to drink if he didn't respect Lu Guan, but now it won't. Lu Guan will not be unhappy about this.
Lu Guan saw that Yan Xiaoshan said a few words and didn't say anything, so he asked: "Actually, we don't mean that we don't believe it, the key is that it's too much... It's so hard to believe, we really can't believe it, can you believe it? If you let the people from the county government know, we won't be able to eat and walk around...", he said, his gaze swept over the three women on the table.
Women are not beautiful, at most they can only be said to be passable, after all, they can't expect any good goods in this kind of green building that is only a little more upscale than the kiln. But one thing is very good, and that is that these hook women, like almost all fireworks women in the world, know what to listen to and what not to listen to at a man's wine table.
Talking about such a shocking secret as Fang Cai's collusion with the Iron Head Gang is something that should not be heard. Since they shouldn't have listened, their ears have been closed. Deaf and deaf as deaf.
But their hearts were very shocked at this time, and they were all thinking, is this true? Lord County is a big clean official, if even Lord County is like this, then is there a good official in this world?
Lu Guan had already reached into the woman's skirt with one hand, and waved his other hand as he spoke: "Brother Yan's words are naturally trustworthy, but your friend... Although we don't recognize it
Knowledge, but there has always been a truth that those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black, since they are friends with you, they are definitely not the kind of people who talk nonsense, since they have said it, I am afraid it is not groundless. I trust you and of course I trust him. But then again, Brother Yan, why don't you believe it?"
Yan Xiaoshan blurted out: "After so many years and so many things, when has the county lord ever treated us people badly? It doesn't make sense. Could it be that Lord Xianzun obviously colluded with the Iron Head Gang, and still ran to deliberately send him to death?"
Lu Guan's eyes flickered, and he glanced at Wu Shou, both of which were alive in his heart. These words reminded them that if Lord Xianzun really colluded with the Iron Head Gang, then the last crackdown on bandits... How do you explain it? Or to put it another way, what does it mean that there was really collusion, a war against bandits, and almost the death of the Iron Heads Gang?
Lu Guan has been in the rivers and lakes for so many years, although he is still just a small head who dominates in the West City, and he is not even a small person who dominates Bazhong City. Even the current banquet can't be eaten a few times a year.
But no matter how low the status is, the experience in the rivers and lakes is also very sufficient, even if it is insufficient, there is a lot of life experience. As a result, Yan Xiaoshan just inadvertently said a word, and he thought of it a lot.
As for Wu Shou, who is similar to Lu Guan, he was also reminded by Yan Xiaoshan.
At this time, Yan Xiaoshan drank another glass, looked at the dishes on the table with drunken eyes, held chopsticks in his hands and held them in the air, looking for which dish was delicious. In fact, I was laughing in my heart. As a person who has been engaged in intelligence for decades, he knows best the great role of unintentional words.
It's not difficult to plant a seed, but it's rare to plant it without knowing it. No matter what kind of towering tree the seed grows into after it is planted in this way, no one will find its head.
That's a lot of skill.
"As an intelligence officer, attentive, thoughtful, intelligent, analytical... All of them are indispensable, and you also have to be able to figure out people's hearts, and it can even be said that the most important thing is to figure out people's hearts, and understand people's hearts thoroughly, so that your intelligence collection can proceed smoothly. This is the lecture given to them by the eldest prince of Jiang.
