92, cunning fox
Gongsun Ru said with a smile: "It turns out that Lord Xia has already made up his mind and is not afraid of being investigated, so I will run for nothing this time, but fortunately, the explanation that Lord Xiao wants has already arrived, and Lord Xia has taken out so much gold, which is also a little deserved." ”
Xia Li smiled lightly: "Lord Gongsun doesn't have to be so polite, Xia has just said that this is for my Wolf Tooth Guard's contribution, just imagine if one day this cooperative system can spread to the entire Southwest Dao, then wouldn't my Wolf Tooth Guard's rule be even stronger." ”
In fact, Xia Li really thought so, if his bold method of cooperating with the local forces was really implemented in the entire Southwest Province, then in the Southwest Province, the Wolf Tooth Guard would no longer have to worry about not being able to rule those stubborn forces.
No matter how stubborn the forces are, they will not want the immediate interests, and the whole truth is very simple.
Gongsun Ru's heart moved slightly, and he said with a smile: "This method of managing local forces is indeed feasible, but before, it was just these local forces or our wolf fangwei, and they were a little hostile to each other.
Perhaps the problem lies with us, and we wolf tooth guards think that we are the managers of local forces, and we are officials.
And those local forces, even if they have been in the Southwest Dao for hundreds of years, no matter how powerful they are and how extensive their connections are, they are still people.
We have always thought that it is impossible for the government and the people to cooperate, after all, the relationship between interests during this period is somewhat complicated, and who should be blamed if something goes wrong?
Many people have considered these things, plus the conflict between the two sides from time to time, so they didn't think of cooperation.
Now it seems that Lord Xia's management system is very feasible, impressing those forces with interests, and destroying the disobedient forces with their hands, although this is a bit ruthless, but it is also in line with our wolf tooth guard's style.
And in the end, they have the blood of their own people in their hands, so they can't get off this boat, they can only cooperate with us, and the two sides will be stronger!"
I have to say that Gongsun Ru has seen through the main means of cooperation between the two, in fact, many people have seen it through, including Xu Xingzhou, who was recruited by Xia Li to talk about cooperation at the beginning.
But it's one thing to see through, it's another thing to do it or not, no one will put aside the immediate benefits and not make money.
The lords of those forces all have to consider their own forces, from the small miscellaneous servants to the elders, basically 180% agree to cooperate with things, if nothing else, that is, interests.
As for the so-called use by Xia Li to destroy the local forces, there is nothing to say, in the face of sufficient interests, the so-called unity is a joke.
So they didn't think about it, anyway, the Southwest Road has always been in charge of the Wolf Tooth Guard, and the Wolf Tooth Guard is responsible for something, so they do it, it's a big deal to make the knife in Xia Li's hand, but so what?
Facts have proved that cooperation can indeed bring huge benefits to both parties, and in the face of interests, how about being a knife in the hands of others.
The fear is that they can't understand what is going on, and it is much easier for them to understand these things.
It is a very simple relationship of interests, which can completely bypass the unity of the other party, talk directly, and kill whoever disagrees, it's as simple as that.
Even the whole truth is understood by many local forces, but what can they do? They can't do anything.
The reason is very simple, the network resources that go out to sell are in the hands of the wolffangs, what is the use of them seeing through?
Gongsun Ru saw this, so he felt that Xia Li's idea was very useful.
If you see it through, then I will make it clear that we will benefit each other, and all those who stand in our way will be cleared!
Simple and easy to use.
The only thing that needs to be taboo is that the means are too ruthless, which will cause a backlash from other local forces, even if the overall strength of the Wolf Tooth Guard is stronger than those local forces, but if they combine to make trouble, the rule of the Wolf Tooth Guard will basically collapse.
Xia Li stood up, hugged his fists and said, "Lord Gongsun is busy with official business, Xia Li will not keep you, and I hope that Lord Gongsun will bring the evidence and gold to Lord Xiao Xinyuan." ”
Xia Li issued an eviction order, and Gongsun Ru didn't stay long, got up and saluted back: "This is natural." ”
After sending Gongsun Ru away, Xia Li sat at the head of the council chamber, and there was no one else in the room.
Xia Li held her chin, and there was a thoughtful look in her eyes.
Gongsun Ru came this time because of Xiao Xinyuan's order, and why did Xiao Xinyuan ask him for an explanation? It was because the local forces were in turmoil and affected the rule of the Langyawei.
But this Gongsun Ru made Xia Li a little jealous.
Let's not talk about the difference in strength, it is Gongsun Ru's behavior that makes Xia Li a little secretly wary.
It seems that Gongsun Ru has no abnormal style, but it is ordinary, and there are no bright spots to be found.
Originally, Xia Li thought he was very ordinary, but suddenly remembered Gongsun Ru's nickname, 'Cunning Fox'.
How could an ordinary person get such a nickname?
Finally, when Xia Li gave away the gold, he saw a little flaw.
Gongsun Ru behaved very ordinary, accepted the gold, thanked him, and took the letter.
But it was precisely because of his ordinariness that Xia Li felt abnormal.
That's three thousand taels of gold, although it's not too much, but Xia Li, who is printing and hunting for the first year, sold less than one-third.
Gongsun Ru is a realm stronger than him, his status is one and a half positions higher, and although he has more resources than him, it is not much.
At least it is known that Xia Li knows that Xiao Xinyuan's annual worship is only just over this number.
But when Gongsun Ru heard that Xia Li was talking about so much gold, he was not surprised at all, and he looked like he should have been, which made Xia Li suspicious.
Maybe it's because he knows the reason why Xia Li cooperates with these forces, but it's impossible not to be surprised at all, after all, the amount of this sale is only known to Xia Li and the person who delivered the goods, and Gongsun Ru has no reason to know.
And he behaved very normally, but casually accepted the gold.
This made Xia Li instantly understand that what Gongsun Ru said before was deliberately exaggerated, maybe Xiao Xinyuan sent him to ask about the situation, but when it came to Gongsun Ru's mouth, it became necessary to give an explanation!
The purpose of this exaggeration was to make Xia Li feel that this matter was difficult to handle, so he took out money to bribe him and let him say good things in front of Xiao Xinyuan.
And Gongsun Ru didn't leave after knowing the evidence letter, the purpose was to knock him off.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that before he could speak, Xia Li sent the gold over.
This made Gongsun Ru overjoyed, and his title changed from 'Xia Zhutou' to 'Lord Xia'.
