Agents of the Three Kingdoms

County government office, backyard.

Wang Lei and Guo Jia sat facing each other, and Du Ji sat next to them.

At this time, Du Ji was counting the list of gifts sent by the gentry of Wuji County item by item.After Guo Jia spread the news that the Black Mountain bandits were about to attack Wuji County again, the wealthy gentry and businessmen in Wuji County were frightened.

For the businessmen in Wuji County, Wang Lei's use value is that he blocked an attack from the black bandits.With a success, the merchants would rather spend a little money to make Wang Lei continue to resist and become their first line of defense.

Even if Wang Lei didn't stop them, the merchants would only lose a little money.Or even if the news is false, the money and food that businessman Macon donated to Wang Lei can also form a good relationship with Wang Lei.

There is no harm at all, and businessmen will naturally not give up the opportunity.

After Du Ji finished counting, he looked happy and said excitedly: "My lord, Feng Xiao spread the news this time, and the effect is huge. According to my statistics, the harvested grain is nearly ten thousand shi, nearly one million yuan, and clothes, armor, There are several weapons, enough for us to equip a thousand-man team. It is a pity that at present, they are all infantry, and there are no horses to equip cavalry."

Wang Lei chuckled, and said: "Brother Bohou, this is just the beginning, don't worry, give me half a year, and I will definitely be able to form a strong team, and only then will I truly gain a foothold."

Guo Jia also said: "What is lacking at present is time, and we must have enough time to grow ourselves."

Wang Lei changed the subject and said, "Unfortunately, Zhen Yan hasn't come yet."

Guo Jia didn't take it seriously at all, and said with a light smile: "When Zhen Yan is here, my lord can get a lot of money and food. But if Zhen Yan doesn't come, we still have a plan to deal with it. Could it be that my lord has softened?"

Wang Lei shook his head with a chuckle, and said lightly: "If the Zhen family doesn't take the initiative to surrender, it will be self-defeating. No wonder I. If I want to control Wuji County, there must be no one who is dissatisfied. The Zhen family is the first in Wuji County. A businessman with assets of over [-] million and countless wealth, I believe Zhang Yan is very willing to cooperate with us. In the face of interests, enemies can also be transformed into friends."

Guo Jia smiled, his eyes full of anticipation.

Du Ji didn't agree with Wang Lei and Guo Jia's strategy, but it felt good to count the money until his hands cramp, so he acquiesced.

"grown ups!"

Fu Bo strode over and reported: "My lord, Zhen Yan came to see me."

"It came!"

A smile bloomed on Wang Lei's face, and he ordered: "Please go to the living room, I will be there soon."

After Uncle Fu left, Wang Lei had no plans to leave.

Du Ji asked: "Zhen Yan is visiting, won't your lord go to greet him?"

A smile rose from the corner of Wang Lei's mouth, and he said in an unhurried manner: "Zhen Yan came to the door, honed his patience, and let him know the status of the two parties. Don't let him hurt, he always thinks I'm ignorant A little doll."

Guo Jia nodded, secretly nodding in his heart.

Du Jixin said that you are a baby county magistrate, but your behavior style and age are seriously inconsistent.

A quarter of an hour passed quickly, and Wang Lei walked slowly to the living room.

Zhen Yan was waiting in the living room. At first, she thought that Wang Lei would come to see him immediately, but after waiting for a while, she realized that Wang Lei hadn't arrived yet, so she felt a little impatient.The majestic head of the Zhen family, with a family fortune of over [-] million, who would shake Wuji County by stomping his feet, wants to be angry here, one can imagine how he feels.He was angry at first, but slowly, his heart became cold again.

This baby county magistrate is really amazing, thick-skinned and dark-hearted, skilled in suppressing people, he doesn't look like a [-]-year-old youth, he feels like an old fox to Zhen Yan.

After Zhen Yan sat quietly and thought, she let go of the contempt in her heart, and her heart gradually calmed down.

The sound of footsteps came, and Wang Lei strode forward.

Wang Lei had a big smile on his face, as if he had seen an old friend for many years, and said enthusiastically: "Patriarch Zhen came to visit, but I was delayed by some personal matters, so Patriarch Zhen waited for a long time, sorry."

Zhen Yan also replied with a smile: "I've waited for a while, it's okay."

With a smile on his face, he secretly scolded the little fox in his heart.

Your method is too common, I also used it back then.

The two sat down, and Wang Lei asked, "Patriarch Zhen came to the door in person, what's the matter?"

Zhen Yan took out a folded piece of paper from his cuff, and respectfully handed it to Wang Lei, saying, "The Black Mountain bandits threatened to attack Wuji County, and they were arrogant. As a member of Wuji County, the Zhen family has a duty to do so. The Zhen family is willing to Subsidize the adults with 50 yuan, [-] sets of armor, [-] steel knives, [-] arrows, and some food."

Wang Lei looked at it carefully and was surprised.

This time, the Zhen family absolutely bleeds heavily, which has given him great benefits.Wang Lei put away the white paper, with a grateful expression on his face, and said with a smile: "When will the Patriarch deliver it?"

Zhen Yan's face turned red, she didn't believe him!

However, when Zhen Yan thought that the person in front of him was shameless for asking for money, his anger dissipated, and he replied: "Everything will be delivered within half a month. Food and money will be delivered first, and weapons and armor must be purchased." , the time is slightly postponed."

Wang Lei yelled good, and praised: "In Wuji County, there are people like Master Zhen who serve the country and the people. I am very happy. Please rest assured, Master Zhen, I will definitely train a team of all-fighters in a short time , Squeeze the Black Bandits."

"do not……"

As soon as Zhen Yan said it, she immediately regretted it.

Wang Lei smiled and asked, "Patriarch Zhen doesn't want to wipe out the Black Mountain bandits? Could it be that you have contacts."

Zhen Yan shook her head quickly, and said with a serious face: "My lord, the Zhen family has absolutely no contact with the Hei Shan bandit. I stop it, but I hope the county magistrate will consider it carefully. After all, the Hei Shan bandit has not been around for a year or two."

Wang Lei smiled and said: "Thank you, Patriarch Zhen, for your concern, I know."

Zhen Yan wiped the cold sweat off her forehead, thinking it was dangerous.He wasn't worried about Wang Lei's safety, but he sincerely didn't want Wang Lei to send troops to attack the Black Bandits.Don't look at Zhen Yan talking to Wang Lei with a smile, but in her heart she longs for Wang Lei to die.What Zhen Yan was worried about was that Wang Lei would need a lot of money and food for the expedition, and that he would find the Zhen family again. He was worried about the Zhen family's money.

Zhen Yan finished her work and got up to leave immediately.

Wang Lei sent Zhen Yan away, and returned to the backyard with a smile.He showed Guo Jia and Du Ji the list sent by Zhen Yan, and Guo Jia said with a smile: "My lord, with the money, food and weapons sent by Zhen's family and Wuji County, within half a year, we can do a big job." , build your own strength."

Wang Lei nodded, and ordered: "The Zhen family has given in, let's suppress the news that the Black Mountain bandits are about to attack Wuji County, it won't do us any good if it affects too much."

Guo Jia replied, "Understood!"

Next, Guo Jia started to deal with the spread of news.

The government came out to clarify, and within a day, the news was completely controlled, and no one talked about it.Those who care about it carefully figure out what is going on in their hearts.After Zhen Yan received the news, she gasped even more.

Obviously, this was aimed at the Zhen family.

The staff looked rejoicing and said: "Patriarch, this time the rumors are aimed at the Patriarch. If the Patriarch does not take the initiative to show weakness, I am afraid the county magistrate will do more outrageous things. This baby county magistrate is an unscrupulous person, so we must deal with it carefully."

Zhen Yan nodded and said: "I understand, I will not despise him again in the future. The previous county magistrates were educated and pedantic, even greedy for money is under our control. This county magistrate is not simple and cannot be careless."
