Ming Dynasty man

Chapter 119

"Brother Gao, I haven't seen you for so long, you are more majestic than before." Zhuzi smiled after seeing the ceremony.

Gao Qi smiled and punched the pillar: "If it wasn't for elder brother's cultivation, you wouldn't be where you are today, good brother. In the future, we two brothers will work together to help elder brother create a career."

"En!" Zhu Zi nodded vigorously.

Gao Qi smiled and said: "Zhuzi, let me introduce you. This is Zhang Ao. This is the mountain you went up after you left. You have never seen it before. Now Zhang Ao is Uncle Shen's deputy and the eldest brother." Let me tell you, don’t underestimate brother Zhang Ao, brother Zhang is born as a scholar.”

Then Gao Qi said to Zhang Ao: "Brother Zhang, this is Zhuzi. Regardless of his young age, his qualifications on the mountain are older than mine. He went up the mountain with his elder brother back then. You two brothers should be close and intimate." .”

Zhang Ao hastily saluted and said, "Brother Zhuzi, don't worry, Zhang Ao's life was saved by benefactor. From now on, he should do his best to do things with all his heart, and he will definitely live up to benefactor's entrustment."

Zhu Zi hastily returned the gift and said, "Zhu Zi is young, please teach me more from Brother Zhang in the future."

Zhang Ao hurriedly said, "Don't dare, dare not."

Then Gao Qi introduced the two brothers who came back with Zhuzi to Zhang Ao.

Hearing what Zhang Ao said, Li Jing came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Why are you being so polite? They are all brothers. Zhang Ao, make arrangements tonight to clean the pillars, and then you have a few drinks. I called Uncle Chen's family and Da Zhuang's brothers, but they haven't seen each other for a long time."

Zhang Ao hurriedly said, "I'll make arrangements now."

After all, he gave a few salutes and went away.

Li Jing shook his head, pointed at Zhang Ao's back and said to Zhuzi with a smile, "Brother Zhang is a cautious man, serious in his work, and sometimes a bit verbose. You see, it's still early in the day, so he's going to arrange a dinner party. You get used to it." Enough."

Zhu Zi smiled and said: "Brother needs such a person by his side. Only such a person can help Uncle Shen reduce the burden and use it with peace of mind."

When Li Jingwen heard this, he pointed at the pillar and smiled at the crowd: "Did you see, this is really progress."

Gao Qi laughed and said, "Brother's vision of people is naturally right."

Li Jing scolded with a smile: "You don't flatter me, it's his own efforts."

Then Li Jing asked about the situation of the two brothers who came back with Zhuzi, and praised them greatly.

Several people came to Li Jing's residence while chatting and laughing.

Seeing Li Jing's shabby room, Zhu Zi felt sour and choked up, "Why do you still live in this room? And there is still no decoration."

Li Jing patted Zhuzi's shoulder lightly and said with a smile: "What do you care about things outside your body? As long as you brothers are doing well, I'm happier than adding more decorations."

"Why is there no messenger, where is the messenger?" Zhuzi looked around and asked.

Gao Qi sighed: "Since you left, Big Brother no longer has a specific messenger. Most of the time, he will send orders to anyone who is caught, and Big Brother will run away if no one is found."

"No wonder my brother is dark and thin now. You guys don't know how to care about my brother? How about Chen Dahu and Chen Erhu, don't you know how to help my brother?" Zhuzi said angrily.

Li Jing said with a smile: "Your big tiger brother is now the captain of my personal guard, but he and Uncle Chen are in charge of the stall in the Wanbai Mountain Valley, and your two tiger brothers are now the captain of the assault team. Zhuang and the others are also busy, do you think they are idle?"

After hearing this, Zhu Zi said anxiously: "There is nothing wrong with it, so you have to run away yourself? Brother, can you let me come back? I'll be your messenger."

Gao Qi laughed and said, "Hahaha, Zhuzi, don't you understand? Brother, is this for you? A new military system has been implemented on the mountain. You didn't take part in the assessment twice, and you can only be a soldier when you come back. Eldest brother wants to leave the position of personal guard to you. After you work for a period of time, you will be the captain of the elder brother's personal guard. Otherwise, you think that Chen Dahu's character can be the captain of the personal guard? In fact, it will take up space for you!"

Li Jing smiled and said, "This matter is not urgent, we will talk about it when Mr. Yuan arrives on the mountain."

After a pause, Li Jing said solemnly: "Mr. Yuan is sick now, I have to go see him, but the people on the mountain are unstable, what do you think should be done?"

Gao Qi thought for a while and said, "Brother, let me say a few words."

Seeing Li Jing's nod, Gao Qi continued: "Just now Uncle Shen said that the Shen family's move is because Ms. Shen plans to test elder brother, so do you also have the idea of ​​testing the brothers on the mountain?"

Shen Zheng shook his head quickly upon hearing this.

Gao Qi smiled and said: "I think this is a good thing! I remember that when the officers and soldiers surrounded us last time, there were more than 20 traitors on our mountain. That time we used Liu Hong's hand to eradicate them. But our military pay It is so high, and many people have saved a lot of property after such a long time. Now that the Shen family is leaving, some people will inevitably think that the source of military salary will be cut off in the future, so they have nothing to think about on the mountain. This The next time the imperial court amnesties the world, there is no guarantee that no one will use this excuse to get rid of their thief name and go down the mountain to live a comfortable life."

Li Jing, Shen Zheng and others nodded silently.

Gao Qi continued: "If someone has such thoughts, it may not be of any benefit to keep them. In the future, they will be greedy for life and fear of death. It is better to let them go down the mountain. As for those who stay, they must be absolutely loyal to the big brother and the cottage. brother."

"Then do you estimate how many people will leave?" Li Jing asked suddenly.

Gao Qi smiled and said: "Hehe, I'm not sure about this. But I can be sure that there will not be many people leaving. If my guess is right, only Boss Zhou's subordinates and us will leave. The ones that are brought in, and only the ones who don't want to play by the rules."

Smiling, Gao Qi continued: "These people used to have dirty buttocks. Back then, Big Brother didn't plan to take these people in. I gave Big Brother advice before taking them in."

"Hehe, that's just a few dozen people, right?" Li Jing laughed.

Gao Qi nodded.

Li Jing smiled and said, "Did you want to deal with them a long time ago, but you didn't bother them because we said we wouldn't settle accounts later?"

Gao Qi scratched his head, noncommittal.

Li Jingjing nodded. It should be said that Gao Qi's analysis was similar to Li Jing's judgment.

It's just that Li Jing thought a little deeper, and Li Jing considered the problem according to the worst situation.

Only by arranging according to the worst case can it be foolproof.

Think in a positive direction in everything, once there is a change, it will be difficult to deal with it.

As a leader, you cannot make mistakes like this.

But since Gao Qi said it so confidently, there must be his reasons. After all, the training on the mountain was handled by Gao Qi, and Gao Qi knew many details of life better than Li Jing.

Gao Qi must use the reactions of these people to determine who will leave the mountain.

For example, training is not active, complaining and so on.

After thinking for a while, Li Jing said: "Gao Qi, if you can be sure that only these people will leave the mountain, it will be easy. In this way, I will go to Mr. Yuan's place right away, and I will leave the matters on the mountain to you and Uncle Shen Deal with it. If someone wants to leave, there is no need to keep them, just let them go."

Shen Zheng smiled and said: "If I were at home, I'm afraid these people would not leave. In my opinion, I will also go down the mountain. Gao Qi and Zhang Ao will handle the matters on the mountain, so that there will be no other people who want to leave. idea."

Li Jingjing nodded, only when Shen Zheng, the God of Wealth, left, would those people think that the source of military pay was lost on the mountain, and they would lose their last thoughts.

The so-called quick knife cuts the mess, the sooner these unstable factors are eliminated, the better.

"Uncle, what are you going to do at home?" Li Jing asked.

"I'll ask your aunt to take his family back to the old house with the old man. I'll go to Kaifeng. First, I will sell your jewels and bring back the silver stored in Kaifeng." Shen Zheng said.

Li Jing thought for a while and said, "Take the lady and let her see what the outside world looks like."

"Isn't this convenient?" Shen Zheng asked doubtfully.

"It's nothing inconvenient. Miss is very smart. Let her see the outside world. There are only advantages and no disadvantages. It will also be of great help to the Shen family in the future." Li Jing said with a smile.

Shen Zheng looked at Li Jing suspiciously, and said to himself that this kid was quite open-minded, but he didn't know whether to let his daughter see the world was to help the Shen family or Li Jing.

Little did they know, Li Jing wanted Shen Ying to see the lives of most people in this world, and let her know that ordinary people's life is not easy.

Shen Ying is indeed very virtuous and intelligent. Many problems that Li Jing did not think of are thought of for Li Jing, which is very rare.

In the process of Li Jing's transformation from a modern soldier to a bandit leader, Shen Ying gave Li Jing too many suggestions.

For example, how to hide his mentality, not to show his powerless side in front of his subordinates, how to establish prestige in front of his subordinates, how to increase his subordinates' confidence in him, and so on.

Although they were all vague reminders, Li Jing could understand what Shen Ying meant.

In some respects, Li Jing is now more and more like a superior person, which is indeed the result of Shen Ying's reminder.

But what is Shen Ying's biggest flaw?It was because she lived in a wealthy family like the Shen family since she was a child. Even when the Shen family was in the most difficult time, such as when she first arrived in Jinniuling, Shen Ying's living standard did not drop at all.

Li Jing used to think that a daughter in ancient times had no status in the family, but only after getting in touch with the Shen family did he realize that this was not the case at all.

The more wealthy the family is like the Shen family, the higher the status of the girl.

It can be said that apart from the son-in-law, there is no one in the same generation who has a higher status than a girl.

For example, when eating, girls are eligible to sit at the table regardless of whether they are born in the same family or born in the same family, but the sons of the common people are not eligible and can only sit at the table.

In the Shen family, there is only Shen Ying, the prostitute daughter, who has the highest status among her peers. It can be said that the best things in the Shen family are all prepared for her, except for old Mrs. Shen and Shen Zheng.
