Chapter 499: The Cooked Duck Flew Away
"My lord, rest assured, not many people know about it, and the old slave temporarily restricted their freedom, claiming to have received 150 million taels. Du Fuchong said.
"Haha, those people above actually understand that it's nothing more than how much we have misreported. Lin Xiqi smiled and said, "You immediately bring a sum of money to Jiang Ruhe, as long as you get him, there should be no problem on the helmsman's side, then everything will be easy." ”
Originally, the best way to keep secrets was to kill people and kill people, but this time there were many members of the Red Lotus Sect in the past, if they were all killed, the impact would be too great, and they would not be able to justify themselves on their side.
Temporarily restricting the freedom of these informants should be the best option.
Wait for this matter to pass for a while and then let him regain his freedom, and then whatever they say, he will not admit it.
"Yes, sir. Du Fuchong nodded and said, "Jiang Ruhe is very greedy, but as long as he is greedy, it will be easy to do, we will send a little more if it's a big deal, right?"
"Don't underestimate his appetite, take care of it yourself. The other two also mean it. Lin Xiqi said.
Du Fuchong knew who Lin Xiqi was referring to, it was the other two deputy helmsmen Kong Fu and Zhang Yuan, no matter whether everyone was competitive or not, whether the relationship was harmonious or not, this kind of thing also gave them some benefits.
After all, it has become a fact, and it is too late for them to say more, so it is better to take some benefits.
Of course, all this depends on the meaning of Jiang Ruhe and the helmsman.
Two days later, Du Fu rushed back.
He went to see Jiang Ruhe, Du Fuchong originally thought that he would ask for 20 million taels, but as soon as he opened his mouth, it was 50 million taels.
Du Fuchong understood Jiang Ruhe's greed.
The appetite is really great.
The other party's big opening, Du Fuchong naturally did not respond directly.
Jiang Ruhe reported this number to test himself.
The reported 150 million taels, this figure everyone knows in their hearts that it is false, and there must be a lot of interceptions.
Even the helmsman knows it in his heart, but they will turn a blind eye, after all, they still have to give some benefits to the people below, otherwise who will work for them in the future?
As long as the people below are not too excessive, they each hide some, which is completely understandable.
In the end, under the bargain, Jiang Ruhe sent 50 million taels.
However, the 50 million taels are considered to be his and the helmsman's share.
As for how much he would give to the helmsman, Du Fuchong didn't pay much attention to it.
From Bai Sen's side, I learned that these things can only be regarded as some small things in the rudder.
Jiang Ruhe basically decided on one person, and when the time came, he would mention it to the helmsman a little, and it would be over.
The helmsman will not delve into this, he trusts Jiang Ruhe very much.
Don't talk about these small things, even if it is some big things, Jiang Ruhe can also influence some decisions of the helmsman.
So Jiang Ruhe's side got it done, and the others were secondary.
For example, the other two co-helmsmen.
Du Fuchong gave them five million taels each.
As for whether they accepted it or not, and were not satisfied, he did not pay any attention to it.
In this way, at least 100 million taels will be deducted from his side.
"My lord, the 150 million taels reported, Jiang Ruhe said that he could leave you 30% as a benefit for the disciples in this action sect. Du Fuchong said.
"It seems that your 50 million taels still makes Jiang Ruhe satisfied in his heart. Lin Xiqi said with a smile, "As far as I know, in the past, when encountering such a thing, Jiang Ruhe only left the other party with a maximum of two percent, and eighty percent of the reported ones had to be handed over to the rudder." ”
"Hopefully he doesn't find out that we get more. Du Fuchong said, "But even if the thirty percent left for us is forty-five million taels, the people below are actually not too much." ”
Lin Xiqi nodded in agreement.
Many of the people who shot this time are masters, and with their identity and vision, they can't look down on tens of thousands of taels or hundreds of thousands of taels.
"Take out 30% of the 100 million taels deducted from us. Lin Xiqi said.
"Adults harvest seventy percent, almost. Presumably they won't have any opinions. Du Fuchong nodded.
These people are basically Bai Sen's cronies, and even if they don't give them a point, they probably don't dare to say anything.
may complain secretly, but he will never dare to contradict himself.
This is the Red Lotus Sect, and the distinction between respect and inferiority in the sect is still very clear, and there is also a faction that wants to vote for another faction, even if it is accepted, it probably won't be reused.
Therefore, for these Red Lotus Sect disciples, gaining their trust is the most important thing.
For example, Tang Ying, among the masters who are attached to Bai Sen, there are some who are stronger than Tang Ying.
But Tang Ying is his Bai Sen's cronies, so his status is different.
There is also Jiang Ruhe, who has a close relationship with the helmsman, and Bai Sen and the other three deputy helmsmen have almost become foils.
Although Jiang Ruhe's strength is too strong, it is not possible for people to be valued by the top, and the status is very different.
By doing this myself, I can be regarded as taking good care of the people below.
Lin Xiqi now needs these people to help him do things, he can give it if he can, if he has some emotions, he may not be able to do things well.
The destruction of the Crazy Knife Gang was soon spread all over the rivers and lakes of Liangzhou.
The next day, as soon as Du Fuchong left, Meng Wei came to the door.
Meng Wei was depressed in his heart.
I thought I could make a fortune by coming here.
The last time I negotiated with the new state pastor was fifteen million taels, I could get the difference, and I could deduct some of my own points, how could I have the benefit of 10 million taels.
Although he advanced fifteen million taels from the Seven Star Sect, he was able to get this money from the Crazy Knife Gang after he went back, and he was still down-to-earth in his heart, and he earned this money himself.
But who would have thought that the Crazy Knife Gang would be wiped out.
In this way, no one can ask for the money advanced by the Seven Star Sect.
That's a loss of fifteen million taels for nothing.
The boiled duck flew away.
The sect will not allow losses, which means that if it cannot be made up, then this cost can only be made up by itself.
Fifteen million taels, Meng Wei can't make up for it.
But this gap is a little unacceptable to him.
Originally, I could make a small profit, but now I don't make any money, and I have to lose a sum of money, which is too cost-effective.
"Elder Meng, I don't know what instructions your Seven Star Sect has?" Lin Xiqi met with Meng Qi, but this time he didn't let him wait long.
"Your Majesty, you're laughing. How dare you say any instructions, if there is anything to do, give an order, and the Seven Star Sect will definitely serve. Meng Qi hurriedly said.
On the bright side, the rivers and lakes are still respected by the imperial court.
But on the ground, it is unlikely that the alliance leaders in the states will give face to the government.
If it is beneficial to them, it may be accommodating, but if it is not, what is the government?
"Then what is the matter with Elder Meng coming to this official this time?" Lin Xiqi asked.
"My lord, you should know about the Crazy Knife Gang, right?" Meng Qi asked.
"Crazy Knife Gang?" Lin Xiqi raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, I know, it's the sect in Zhangye County, what's the matter?
Originally, Lin Xiqi's words made Meng Qi feel that it was easy to talk about it, but the words that followed made him stunned.
"My lord, what are you?" asked Meng Wei after a stunned moment.
"What's the problem?" Lin Xiqi saw Meng Qi's reaction, and asked again, "Didn't catch it?"
"My lord, you really don't know?" asked Meng Qihu suspiciously.
"Please also ask Elder Meng to tell me that this official really doesn't know what you want to say. The Crazy Knife Gang is a sect in the rivers and lakes, and the official does not pay much attention to the affairs in the rivers and lakes. Lin Xiqi said.

Note: The name of the first elder of the Crazy Knife Gang written in the two chapters yesterday is Hu Tai, I confused it and wrote it as Meng Qi. Meng Wei is an elder of the Seven Star Sect, which has been revised before, so I will explain it here.
