Fu Song

Chapter 207 Helper
Sun Guaizi had a blanket covering his legs, leaning back on a wicker chair, basking in the sun.

As October approaches, the sun is already mild.

He is getting older.

But if anyone wants to bully him because he is old, he will immediately know what cruelty is.

Over the past few years, he has become more and more violent.

The fear of belonging and peers to him has also reached a new peak.

And after all, the reason is because he is old.

Although waiting for three or two idlers is not his opponent, Sun Guaizi knows that his once vigorous energy is drifting away from him day by day, and maybe one day, when he wakes up, he will never be able to get up again.

But his son Sun Man was too angry.

How could he afford such a huge family business!

The property of his grandson's family is not an ordinary wealthy family. Such a family has its own set of clan etiquette to restrain it, and there will generally be no problems in inheritance.

What the Sun family needs is violence and iron and blood methods. Another important factor for survival is the support from the powerful.

Without the support of the powerful, defeat is only a matter of moments.

Sun Guaizi now regrets the doting and connivance of Sun Man in the past.I had such a son in my early forties, and I was afraid of losing it when I held it in my hands, and I was afraid of melting if I held it in my mouth. After all, I had raised a useless dude.

It's a pity that this truth was only figured out by Sun Guaizi a few years ago.

With a family background like theirs, if the successor has no future, it will definitely end badly!

In the past few years, he has been uncharacteristically strict with Sun Man. He only hopes to make up for it before it is too late.

It's a pity that Sun Man's long-standing habits have been hard to change after decades of stocking. Even though he has made some progress compared to the previous years, he is still far from what Sun Guaizi wanted.

The Sun family is not resting easy.

Among the big bosses below, which one didn't stare at his seat covetously?
With only Sun Man's material, how can he fight them?

Do you want to ask Xiao Erlang?

Sun Guaizi smiled wryly.

Xiao Erlang never looked down upon his grandson Guaizi.

Although Xiao Erlang single-handedly supported him, he was just a purely exploitative relationship with him.If he couldn't do it anymore, he would just abandon the Sun family very quickly and look for another person who could support him. Those big bosses under him also understood this.

Moreover, Sun Guaizi suspected that among these big bosses, Xiao Erlang had long been there, but he didn't know it.

If he wanted to pass on the entire family business to Sun Man, he had to find some good helpers for Sun Man while his prestige was still there.

Or, it is necessary to use more violent means to remove some threats. Only in this way can Sun Man continue to sit in his position firmly.

Xiao Erlang was a Jinshi in high school, but he was going to become an official in Qianzhou, and he would not return to Bianliang for at least a few years. This was an excellent opportunity for Sun Guaizi.

During this time, he can wash away those disobedient under his command.

When Xiao Erlang came back, he could only support Sun Man.

As for getting rid of Xiao Erlang, Sun Guaizi didn't even dare to think about it.

First of all, many people in Bianliang, who was a former general of the Xiao family of his grandson, knew this, and this was also his amulet.Secondly, he was afraid of the power of the Xiao family, Xiao Yu, Xiao Ding, any one of them could crush him to death like an ant.Thirdly, he was even more afraid of Xiao Erlang.When the other party was only a teenager, he had experienced how powerful this person was. Apart from his daring to work hard, most of the reason why his grandson is today is because of this Xiao Erlang.Others say that he is a seed for studying, but Sun Guaizi knows what kind of cruel heart Xiao Erlang has under this name.

Xiao Erlang may not be able to hide this small thought of his own, but it should be within his tolerance range.

Didn't Xiao Erlang say it before?

It doesn't matter if his subordinates have selfishness, who doesn't have a little selfishness?

As long as the official business is not spoiled because of selfishness, this is fine.

However, it is not easy to find a few capable helpers for my son.

Those who have the ability are not easy to control.

But the ones that are easy to control, his grandson can't see them.

Since last year, Sun Guaizi has been searching hard.

Originally, he had taken a fancy to Xin Jian.

This person has great kung fu, but his temperament is a bit soft, and he has a wife and children, so he is the easiest to control.Everything was going well, Xin Jian left the army and agreed to work as a nursing home in a building. Once he took this step, it would be easy to win him over.

But who knew that Xin Jian was run away by Xiao Ding before he even took the first step.

How can I compare with the Xiao family!

But now, another opportunity presented itself.

The stranger named He Sheng appeared in his field of vision.

Dong Yao was beaten to the brim, Sun Man went to stand up for Dong Yao, and a group of subordinates were also beaten terribly. The two old brothers who protected Sun Man came back and told Sun Guaizi that this He Sheng and his subordinates must have been from the past. Army, and it is a very powerful army.

After sending people to investigate, the general situation of this He Sheng became clear.

Hebei people!
Served in the army again!

And it came out of a very powerful army.

This range is very narrow.

Although my old brothers are a little older, their vision is still there.

There are only a few troops that can be called powerful by them.

More importantly, these armies are almost completely wiped out now, and their chief generals are all charged with treason.

In other words, people like He Sheng can't see the light now.

I'm afraid this name is all fake.

But such a person is exactly what Sun Guaizi needs most now!
He is not afraid that He Sheng is not clean, but he is afraid that He Sheng is too clean.The bigger the crime on He Sheng's head, the easier it is for him to handle him.

Such a person is the best candidate to help Sun Man!

The next development also proceeded smoothly according to Sun Guaizi's idea.

This He Sheng has a educated master next to him, he is very smart, he probably figured out how difficult it is for them to survive in Bianliang, and expressed kindness to himself through Dong Yao's incident.

First push the boat along the way, and then slowly show them how much you value them. The importance here must be handled well. You can't let these people feel that you have something to ask for them, but let them feel that they have received great favor from you. So grateful to myself.

Of course, let Sun Man do this kind of favor.

His grandson Guaizi no longer needs the gratitude of others.

Having met twice, He Sheng also helped Sun Man out a few times, and his opponents were always the Cao family in Xicheng.

He Sheng showed strong force.

And the master surnamed Gao also showed his clever mind.

Violence and strategy, the perfect combination.

Sun Guaizi was very satisfied.

Time to move on to the next step.

"Chun Niang!" He closed his eyes and whispered.

Chunniang was his wife and also Sun Man's mother. When he married her, Chunniang was only sixteen years old, and he was almost thirty years older than Chunniang.

Now she has gray hair all over her head, but Chun Niang is only in her early thirties.

Sun Guaizi naturally belonged to this wife, Bao Bao, not only because she was much younger than him, but also because she gave birth to a son for him.

Although there is only one.

But Sun Guaizi knew that it was probably because of his own problems.

After having Sun Man, during a gang fight, he was seriously injured, hurting Yuanyuan, and this made his son's heir difficult.

"Officer!" Qin Niang came over, sat on the small stool in front of the wicker chair, and gently pinched Sun Guaizi's leg.

"Your natal brother has a daughter, is she fifteen this year?" Sun Guaizi asked while enjoying the massage with his eyes closed.

"The official said it was E Niang, she just turned fifteen!" Chun Niang nodded.

"I heard from Man'er that the talent is not bad?"

"Officer, what do you want?" Chunniang was a little puzzled.

"Go back and tell your brother, I showed E Niang a good marriage." Sun Guaizi said.

Chunniang's face changed slightly: "Officer, the last time I went back to my mother's house, I heard from my brother that he had already told E Niang about a marriage. The money for this child's education has always been paid by my brother, so he agreed to marry E Niang!"

Sun Guaizi opened his eyes and glanced at Chun Niang, and said calmly: "So, your brother looks down on me, a Jianghu person who licks blood with a knife!"

"No, officer!" Chun Niang lowered her head suddenly.

Sun Guaizi snorted and said, "Don't forget, how he lived a good life all these years. He never forgot the well digger when he drank water. Now that I'm not dead, are you going to get rid of us?"

"Officer, it's not easy for a family like ours to find a scholar to be his son-in-law," Chunniang said in a low voice.

"Bah!" Sun Guaizi straightened up and sat up: "Is it so good to be a scholar? A scholar who can't be an official is just a poor man. Go back and tell your brother that I will take care of E Niang's marriage. On his side, Don't even think about it."

After a while, Sun Guaizi looked at Chun Niang and said, "And this matter is closely related to Man'er's future, E Niang, I want to marry Man'er's most important subordinate in the future, that person is very capable, If there is no involvement, how will your son win over others in the future? Think about it for yourself, whether it is your son or your brother's family that is more important!"

Looking at the somewhat sluggish Chunniang, Sun Guaizi snorted, stood up on crutches, and limped towards the outside.He believed that Chunniang would figure out who was more important.

Today, he has more important things to do.

Regardless of the dust on the ground, Xiao Cheng knelt on the ground and respectfully kowtowed three times to Lao Tzu who was riding on the horse and Mrs. Han in the carriage.

"My lord, Madam, please take care of yourself, your son is gone!"

Today is the day when Xiao Cheng left Beijing to take up his post. Xiao Yu specially asked for leave to see Xiao Cheng off with Mrs. Han.

Now, ten miles out of the city.

"Be careful all the way!" Xiao Yu waved his hand.

There was a choked sound in the carriage.

Xiao Cheng's eye circles were also red, and after going there, it might not be easy to come back in three to five years.

Hardened his heart and stood up, turned on the horse, his riding boots licked the horse's belly, the horse neighed lightly, and raised its hoof.

"Second brother, don't forget to write a letter!" The curtain of the carriage opened, and Xiao Qi stretched out half of her body, waving and shouting.

"Chongwen, have a good trip!" Luo Gang also waved goodbye.

Xiao Cheng didn't look back, but just raised his hand, waved it backwards, and then hit the horse's butt hard, the horse suddenly accelerated and ran forward, Han Yan, Wei Wu and more than a dozen followers also followed.

Nearly twenty miles out of the city.

Wei Wu, who was in the lead, suddenly saw an acquaintance standing by the side of the road.

"Mr. Sun, long time no see!" Wei Wu got off his horse, "Is this here to see Erlang off?"

Sun Guaizi said with a smile: "Of course, when the second son is going to take office, there is no reason for Sun not to come and see him off. It's just that someone like me who can't stand on the stage can only stay away from the bustling places, so as not to disturb the son. cause trouble."

Wei Wu laughed: "No wonder Young Master likes you, you really are a sensible person."

While speaking, the brigade had already arrived here, and Xiao Cheng also smiled slightly when he saw Sun Guaizi.

"My lord, please take a step to speak!" Sun Guaizi paid respects first, and then said in a low voice.

The two walked aside, but Wei Wu and Han Kai followed closely.

"My lord, this carriage is a gift prepared by Mrs. Sun for you. It's a show of strength. My lord will go to Qianzhou for the first time, and I'm afraid there are many places that need to be arranged." Sun Guaizi said.

"You have already handed in all the cases for this year." Xiao Cheng smiled and said, "The intelligence collection is also done well, so there is no need for these things."

Sun Guaizi smiled and said, "Second Young Master, I'm going to make a move inside, some people are a bit disobedient."

Xiao Cheng took a deep look at Sun Guaizi: "You are very energetic, are you ready to pave the way for Sun Man so soon? I think it is difficult for Sun Man to take on the big responsibility now."

"Sun is getting old, maybe he will die at some point. It's nothing if I die. If I miss the young master's affairs, it will be a serious crime." Sun Guaizi said: "So let's arrange it earlier."

I'm afraid the carriage is full of money, it's the money that Sun Guaizi paved the way for Sun Man, he knows he doesn't like Sun Man.

"This is your business, you know what I want!" Xiao Cheng smiled and said, "As long as I don't miss my business, I don't care how you clean up the interior, but there is one place that cannot be moved or messed up."

"Yes, there will never be any trouble at the water transport side." Sun Guaizi lowered his head and said.

"When I'm not around, if you have any important matters, you can directly contact Butler Xu! For small matters, follow the old way!" Xiao Cheng ordered.

"Yes!"

"Mr. Sun, do you think Sun Man can really support you?" Xiao Cheng was a little curious.

"I still have a few more years to live, so I can help him. In addition, I have found a helper for him." Sun Guaizi said, "Even if I'm not around, it's enough to help Sun Man hold on."

"Since you have already made arrangements, I have nothing to say." Xiao Cheng nodded, "I accept your gift. You are Grandpa's old subordinate, and you have been with me for several years. I still want to save my face. for you."

"Thank you, Second Young Master!" Sun Guaizi was overjoyed.
