Chapter 658: Psychological Game
readx;
Cao Zhi is a talented person, who has been the way of Confucius and Mencius since elementary school, where can he eat human flesh raw. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 The reason why info said this is not because he did the pirate business, and if he didn't create a cruel and murderous image, I am afraid that anyone would come to bully him and rob him of his business and territory.
Now that his reputation for cruelty and murder has spread throughout Fuzhou, coupled with his growing power, he has been able to firmly control the huge fortune of plundering foreign merchant ships.
But Jiang Xia was choking at him now, which suddenly made Cao Zhi a little unsure of how to deal with it. So he looked at Jiang Xia for seven or eight breaths, and finally learned from Jiang Xia, raised his head and laughed.
After laughing for a while, Cao Zhi clapped his hands and said, "Okay, interesting, it's so interesting." I didn't expect that among the six of you, the most interesting one is this little brother. Just because of the courage of this little brother, I will spare the dog officer's life. Someone, let him go. ”
The guards let go of Mao Wensong, Mao Wensong breathed a sigh of relief, and the whole person was a little unstable on his feet, and his legs seemed to be a little weak. Otherwise, the two yacha on the side saw that he was abnormal, so they hurriedly supported him, I am afraid that he would really sit on the ground and not be able to get up.
To be honest, when things come to the current situation, Mao Wensong has basically been abolished. His arrival is at most to prove the sincerity of Fuqing County, and everything that remains depends on Jiangxia.
Although Jiang Xia knew that Cao Zhi would not eat his meat raw, he also knew how to accept it when he saw it. He took the dagger back, skillfully inserted it into the dagger sheath in the boot of his right foot, and then clenched his fist and said to Cao Zhi: "Although it is rumored in the rivers and lakes that the Cao gang leader is murderous, the kid has always known that the gang leader is actually a person who values love and righteousness and righteousness. ”
"Oh, tell me how you saw it. Cao Zhi was now more and more interested in Jiang Xia, so he couldn't help but smile and ask.
This can be seen from the fact that the gang leader only plundered foreign merchant ships, and only took goods and goods three times at a time. Why did the gang leader only plunder foreign merchant ships? It was because the gang leader was reluctant to do anything to the villagers. It's a lot of affection. Why does the gang leader only take 30 percent of his property every time he loots? This is because the gang leader is unwilling to intensify the conflict and let his brothers fight with others. He would rather give up his low-hanging fruit than ensure that his brothers are not injured and die. Isn't this a righteous cloud?"
Jiang Xia's words were sonorous and powerful, and all the pirates standing around the main hall heard it. Perhaps these people still didn't understand why the helper was only willing to take 30% of the property. But now, they all understood.
"Smack!" Suddenly, standing not far from Cao Zhi, a man with a scar on his face slapped himself violently. The man said with a look of shame: "In vain, I have always opposed the practice of taking only 30% of the property of the gang leader, it turns out that the gang leader is all for us, I am really ......"
"Third child, if you have anything to say, I'll talk about it later. Cao Zhi said this lightly, and then looked at Jiang Xia's eyes, which were already a little solemn. The young man in front of him is not simple......
Cao Zhi looked at Jiang Xia and said: "Say, what are you here for today? Don't tell me that you are here to return my parents, wife and children, I know that things are not so simple, you just say that the conditions are." ”
Jiang Xia nodded, "The helper is wise, since we came to offer to release the helper's parents, wife and children, it is naturally conditional." The condition is that I hope that the gang leader can cooperate with Fuqing County and send people to exterminate the Haijiao Gang. As long as the helper agreed, Xia County's order promised to release the helper's parents, wife and children. ”
"Exterminate the Sea Jiao Gang?" Cao Zhi frowned, and then chuckled: "What a joke, the Sea Jiao Gang's power in this Fuzhou Sea is not small. If I go toe-to-toe with him, I will surely suffer greatly. Just because of my parents, wife and children, I sent hundreds of my brothers to death, do you think I would do such a thing? ”
"What the helper said makes a lot of sense. Jiang Xia bowed slightly, as if he agreed with what Cao Zhi said. "It's not a worthwhile deal, but the prefect has promised. As long as the helper is willing to take his brothers to accept Zhao'an, the helper can restore his talent and fame, and the helper's brother can also settle down on the spot and start a new life......"
When Jiang Xia said this, Cao Zhi immediately prepared to speak. But Jiang Xia interrupted him first, "I know, the gang leader must want to say that now you are the number one pirate leader in Fuzhou, sitting on thousands of heroes and heroes, and it is uncomfortable to occupy the mountain as the king." But I would like to ask the helper, can you always be like this?"
"I ......" Cao opened his mouth to argue, but he couldn't speak.
Jiang Xia continued: "Now in Fujian, Zhejiang, and Guangzhou, pirates and pirates breed again, and the reason is only because the emperor ordered the sailors to go out to open up the sea area. Once one day the emperor takes back his fate, the first wave of sailors to strike at it will inevitably be pirates from all over the world. And the gang leader, as the No. 1 pirate leader in Fuzhou, is afraid that he will ......
Okay, just take a step back. If the emperor does not take back his order, the Ming Dynasty will always be overseas. You can live like this forever, but what about your children and grandchildren? Do you also let them live on this desert island for the rest of their lives, and never be able to walk freely and uprightly on the shore?
Now Fuzhou Prefecture and Fuqing County are willing to give the gang leader a chance, why? First, it is indeed because the land and water politics are separated, and the army has no good way to exterminate pirates, and second, because the gang leader has never plundered the Ming merchant ships, so you can still give the gang leader such an opportunity.
If people have no foresight, they will have near-term worries, so I beg the helper to think twice, don't miss this good opportunity, and regret it later. After all, not every pirate is called Trensu. Oh, no. After all, not every pirate can walk on the shore. ”
After Jiang Xia finished speaking, not only Cao Zhi had nothing to say, but even Mao Wensong and the two yacha he brought were all wide open, and they couldn't say a word.
Jiang Xia's analysis just now went from shallow to deep, and was exhaustive. Even Mao Wensong felt that even if he was Cao Zhi, he should be moved by Jiang Xia.
It is true that piracy now looks like a sight, but this is because of the policies of the imperial court. Once the imperial court made up its mind to exterminate the pirates, with the powerful forces of the Daming Naval Division, could the pirates still have the power to resist?
After a period of deep thought, Cao Zhi raised his head and looked at Jiang Xia, "You are very good at talking, I admit that I was moved by what you said." It's just that how can I believe that after we surrender, the government will not blame us for our past affairs?"
Jiang Xia smiled slightly and turned his head to look at Mao Wensong. Mao Wensong immediately understood, and hurriedly handed Jiang Xia the two points of commitment he originally wanted to hand to Jiang Xia.
Jiang Xia handed the two-point letter of commitment to Cao Zhi and said, "These two letters are the letters of commitment given to you by the prefect and the county commander, and they have the seals of the two adults on them. The government wants to save face, as long as you have these two things in your hands, whether it is the prefect or the county commander, it is impossible to go back. ”
Cao Zhi got up from his chair and walked over to Jiang Xia to take the two points of commitment. He nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you." But in order to show your sincerity, I hope you will send my parents, wife and children back to me first. ”
Jiang Xia didn't think about it at all, and immediately nodded: "Okay, I'll have someone send your parents here." ”
"It's parents, wives and children. Cao Zhi emphasized. But Jiang Xia looked at him with a very calm look and didn't say a word. Cao Zhi looked at him in the first place, and finally lost the battle, and nodded helplessly: "Okay, I hope to see my parents before dusk tomorrow." ”
"No problem. After saying this, Jiang Xia directly hugged his fist at Cao Zhi, "Then there is nothing else, I will leave first." See you ...... soon."
After speaking, Jiang Xia didn't wait for Cao Zhi's reply, and directly turned around and walked to the exit of the main hall. As soon as Jiang Xia left like this, the rest of the people subconsciously followed along, as if the other five people were all led by Jiang Xia.
It wasn't until Jiang Xia walked out of the main hall with everyone that Cao Zhi shouted: "It's better to stay and have lunch before leaving." ”
As soon as he heard that it was lunch, Mao Wensong, who had been extremely hungry for a long time, glanced at Jiang Xia, but he actually wanted to stay for a meal before leaving. But Jiang Xia replied directly, "No need!" and continued to walk out.
Jiang Xia was in a hurry, so everyone quickly got on the boat and set sail. On the boat, Mao Wensong's expression when he looked at Jiang Xia no longer had a trace of contempt, but was replaced by a look of admiration. That's right, admiration. Respect and admiration.
Mao Wensong couldn't help but ask Jiang Xia: "Brother He An, do you say that after we return Cao Zhi's parents to him, will he really help us exterminate the Haijiao Gang?"
Jiang Xia shook his head, not even thinking about it in the slightest. He said: "Cao Zhi is a smart man, he knows what kind of choices are more beneficial to him. After our parents return it to him, he will definitely not go to the Haijiao Gang, but will choose to find all kinds of excuses to delay us. ”
"Ahh
Jiang Xia smiled faintly and said, "He doesn't want to go to the Sea Jiao Gang, can he not go? I have my own way to make him have to help us destroy the Sea Jiao Gang!"

In addition, don't think that the main amnesia is to drag the plot or something, historical novels are not like fantasy and urban.
