So I play chess

Chapter 80 Manpower
Although the so-called refugees found by the Sun family were not fully tried, Wen Liang and Li Mao did not intend to convict them, they needed convincing evidence, and only three or two confessions were enough.

Wen Liang picked out the best ones among them, and interrogated some information. Li Mao then used these to deceive other people. With the cooperation of the two, they got a close look at Master Sun's activities.

To their surprise, this group of people had indeed been trained, but they were not from Beiyu Wudewei or any army, but from another property of the Sun family in Beiyu.

Originally, I thought that Master Sun was only in the business of casino tricksters, but I didn't expect that he was still operating private intelligence news in the borders of the two countries.

Mr. Sun's original business contacts are very complex, many people who are strict on the surface, but when they come to him, there are leaks.

For example, those who owed money in a casino, or those who talked casually beside the bed when drunk in a trick shop, were all collected and taken care of one by one, and then classified into categories for sale or coercion in the two countries.

In addition, the two industries each have a source of population, some of which are very suitable and restrained, they will be selected and sent to the residences of the adults in various ways.From the side room to the maid and servant, and even the man who secretly met with the wives and concubines of the noble family, there are so many.

Then return to fill the channel with news.

Mr. Sun is free from all kinds of ordinary people's restrictions on making money, let alone the restrictions of morality and virtue.

This kind of person, no matter Beiyu or Nanchu, should be eliminated quickly.

Wen Guben was still thinking about making a plan for him, or using Beiyu to leverage his strength.Now it's all saved, Mr. Sun has found a way to die for himself, as long as she pushes the boat along at the right time.

Now that the key information and unexpected gains have been successfully obtained, Li Mao asked the eldest lady for instructions on how to deal with this dry person.

Wen Gu said, "What I just said to Taishou Liu was not completely dishonest."

Li Mao folded his hands, slightly bowed his body, and said sincerely: "Miss is the most frank with her nephew."

Wen Gu said: "These people are not loyal people in the first place, and they don't want to say anything at this time. It's just that they have worries about the future. Let's lock them up first. Otherwise, if they are released, they will be harmed instead."

Li Mao responded, he is a transparent person, and there is no need for Wen Gu to explain everything clearly.

"Now the most important people in Tongcheng are the two lords of the Southern Chu court. My nephew has to know what these two lords see and do in Tongcheng." Wen Gu said.

Li Maolian claimed: "That's natural. Now that there are bandits around Tongcheng, the army will send some soldiers to eliminate the bandits, and there will be nothing to worry about. The prefect has already taken care of those who have anything to do with Yang Wantang in the government office." Disposal, the rest are prefects and trustworthy people, Yu Hou and I also looked at them one by one, except that there are some corpses that have no one to replace them for the time being, there are no major problems."

Wen Gu asked, "Is Li Xun useful?"

"Of course it's good. Now that the city wall is being repaired and all the fortifications in the city, the eunuch also relies on Li Xun's master, and there are some things that he really has no time to deal with. If the master takes action, they can all be solved." Li Mao replied honestly.

What Li Mao was referring to Wen Gu was naturally clear, since he said so, it seemed that Li Xun really had real skills.

Wen Gu felt relieved and asked again: "So what about Jin Wan?"

Li Mao replied: "Miss Jin knows people with her eyes. When Jin Xunjian first came, she didn't get along well with her peers. She lacked understanding and didn't take care of each other. Later, Jin Xunjian showed his skills, and everyone was convinced." .”

Hearing what he said, Wen Gu laughed, "Tell me how many people Jin Wan beat."

A smile appeared on Li Mao's face: "More than half of the people in the department have been taken care of by the Jin patrol."

Wen Gu asked, "Can someone leave any complaints?"

"The inspectors in Tongcheng have always been men, and the female inspectors are the number one. Jin's ability is convincing, but some people feel that they have lost face. There will always be some discomfort in their hearts."

Wen Gu said: "Since her ability can convince the public, don't let her waste on these personnel matters. If the rest of the people are unhappy in their hearts, they will naturally not do their best, so they are not suitable to continue."

Li Mao understood what the eldest lady meant, so he should claim that it was. After the eldest lady asked Jin Wan and Li Xun, he figured out some intentions: "The eldest lady really thinks about the two of them, but now in the government office, The divisions and ministries are still in the process of adjusting, and although the eunuch tried his best to coordinate, he was exhausted."

Originally, Wen Gu had been holding the scroll in his hand while he was talking, but now he finally looked at Li Mao: "What does Master Li think?"

Li Mao replied immediately: "There are also people in Tongcheng, each of whom has some abilities, and has nothing to do with Yang Wantang, let alone be appointed by the Southern Chu court. Now that the city's officials are clear and bright, there are difficulties in various matters. It is better to choose some to make the best use of them." able."

Wen Gu sighed in his heart, "This is Li Mao". There are two biggest problems for the Liangzhou army now, one is identity, and the other is governing the city.

Naturally, there was Wen Gu's plan for his identity, and the cooperation of Wen Liang, Li Mao, Zhou Tong and others, so there was no urgent crisis for the time being.But there are not many suitable manpower to rule the city.

Tongcheng is no better than Liangzhou. After all, it is under the rule of Southern Chu. Many things need to be done while being under the control of the Southern Chu court. Wen Gu needs more people without foundation to control the gates of various departments.

If it came to a certain moment, they could really stand on the side of the Liangzhou army.

Liu Zhu alone is far from enough in the long run.This is exactly what Wen Gu promoted Li Xunjin Wan.

Li Mao could hear and see such meaning from his own words and actions.

With this question, he must have checked the candidate in advance.It also means to arrange for yourself first for planning.

"Not only in the city, but also among the refugees who have entered the city. The dark guards are also arranged in Anping and Guangyang, right? Just use it as you like." Wen Gu said.

Li Mao got the words of the young lady, so he knew what kind of plans he had to make in the future and how he should act.Even if the eldest lady has not made up her mind, it is always good to have an idea.

Thinking of this, there is nothing else to do, and Li Mao also resigned.

These few questions made Wen Gu really calm down and think about where the Liangzhou Army was headed in the future.

Just stay in Tongcheng for a long time?Take the opportunity to go back to Liangzhou?Or take advantage of the current chaos in Nanchu and take further action?Although Wen Gu had a faint hope in his heart, no matter how he acted, the lives and safety of too many people were at stake, so he needed to carefully plan and decide before he could act.
