Daming talker

Chapter 166 should be mine!

All the hall masters who came to join the alliance brought some thugs, but now these thugs are outside the door.

Moreover, there are archers from the inspection department outside the door to maintain the law and order. What's more frightening is that they may start arresting smugglers at any time, so the thugs at the gates dare not act rashly.

After all, everyone just witnessed how Master Peng of Hu'an Hall in Xukou Town became a smuggler.

As for the hall masters in the hall, they are definitely not Lin Tailai's opponents with iron fists, and they cannot escape the fate of being beaten unilaterally.

But the scene created by Lin Zuoguan, even Lu Yibin, the leader of his own side, couldn't stand it anymore.

As an old-school Jianghu person, in the eyes of Lu Dalongtou, it is wrong for Lin Tailai to completely disregard the etiquette and morality of the Jianghu!
As for why it's wrong, Lu Dalongtou can't say it, but it's wrong to violate traditional etiquette!

So Lu Dalongtou persuaded Lin Tailai: "Didn't you hear that the two countries are fighting each other without beheading envoys, let alone a meeting of alliances?
We people in the Jianghu act, and there is no rule of doing things in the alliance, and you have also hired archers from the inspection department to help out, which is a big taboo in the Jianghu. "

But Lin Tailai chuckled a few times, and replied as a matter of course: "I am the chief copywriter, military student, and customs official!
My subordinate is Forty He Kuai, and he can also mobilize the archers of the inspection department. Who is from the rivers and lakes like you?
Tell me about the rules of the world, are they out of their minds, or am I out of their minds? "

Lu Dalongtou: "."

Faced with this new type of club organization that combines white and black, the old Jianghu is a bit incapable.

Immediately Lin Tailai turned to the remaining four hall masters at the Hudong entrance, and said aggressively:
"Listen, my rules of the rivers and lakes are, I'd rather miss three hundred than miss one!
Since Xishan Xi's family wants to use you to deal with me, you'd better tell the inside story! "

As a gangster talker, if you feel suspicious, of course you should torture him first, so as to judge whether the other party is telling the truth.

The protagonists of some novels, knowing that the other party has doubts, are likely to plot against themselves, and even send the other party away, and then go to the painstaking investigation of the inside story.

This kind of behavior is really stupid, such a protagonist really doesn't know how to survive a hundred chapters.

So the people standing outside the door also heard screams coming from the hall.

The remaining four hall masters had no power to fight back in front of Mr. Lin, and they didn't even dare to resist.

Because not resisting is the most serious injury, if resisting arouses the other party's ferocity, I'm afraid I might lose my life.

Not long after, the four hall masters were lying on the floor dying from their faces to their bodies.

In the end, they only confessed that it was a grand court official in charge of Jianghu affairs from the Xi family who asked them all to join the new Wulian.

Lin Tailai took off his knuckles, and said to Lu Dalong: "They were all beaten to death, and they still haven't confessed the actual things. It seems that they really don't know the inside story of the Xi family's conspiracy."

Lu Dalongtou felt helpless and saddened by the death of the rabbit, feeling that the plan of his comrades in the rivers and lakes was in vain.

He also helped to persuade him: "Perhaps the great court official of the Xi family just issued the first step of the order, and they only act with money, and they don't know the truth behind the scenes."

Lin Tailai nodded and said: "It's not impossible. If the great court official was as meticulous as I am, he definitely wouldn't tell the plan to the executor from the very beginning. Of course, the fewer people who know the inside story, the better."

Lu Dalong pointed to the comrades lying on the ground and asked: "Then what should they do? How to deal with the aftermath?"

Lin Tailai said in surprise: "What is your mission here, Dalongtou? Of course it is to invite them to join the New Wulian."

Lu Dalong was speechless. When you invite others, you just let them join in lying down?

With Lu Dalong's knowledge, he doesn't know how to explain it to his comrades in the rivers and lakes.

Lin Zuoguan said casually: "Why is it difficult to explain? A beating is the joining ceremony of our new Wulian!
Because this symbolizes a change of face from now on, it means a new start, and it means that Tangkou will submit to the new Wulian from now on.

The more difficult the joining ceremony, the more important it means!If you can't even explain and deal with the aftermath, then what's the use of this big leader? "

Lu Dalong sighed, squatted beside the head Zhang of Renshantang, and explained sympathetically:

"Look, you have already been beaten with so much blood, so don't waste it? It just happens to be used as an alliance, so it's not in vain."

Hall Master Zhang: "."

Although his power is far inferior to that of Lin Zuoguan, he is still a master of the hall, and he also has the dignity of the hall master!

Your New Wulian invites them to join us like this, it is no different from humiliation!
Lu Dalongtou just said a few words, looked up and saw Lin Zuoguan got up and walked out, and asked quickly: "The alliance is not over, the joining ceremony is not over yet, what are you doing!"

Lin Tai replied without turning his head: "I suddenly felt that Xukou Town, where Hu'an Hall is located, is relatively special in geography, so let us manage it directly, and we don't need any agent to join the hall.

Now I'm going to Xukou Town with the Archer of the Inspection Department, bulldozed the Hu'an Hall and come back, so I should be able to catch the dinner. "

Lu Dalong complained subconsciously: "The four hall masters of the alliance are still here, so it's too impolite for you to leave halfway."

Suddenly, a hand lifted from the ground and grabbed Lu Dalong's calf.

Lu Dalong lowered his head and looked, but Zhang Tangzhu said in a ruthless manner: "No, it doesn't matter, I don't mind. Let me join first! Let my own blood be the alliance!"

The other three hall masters who were lying still remained silent, apparently unable to let go of their pride.

Joining is not impossible to discuss, but it is unacceptable to join lying down!

Lu Dalong greeted him and said: "Listen to my persuasion, the Da Chaofeng behind you has already asked you to join the alliance, and he must also want you to join the new Wulian.

If you all refuse to join, how can you fool that Xi Dachaofeng later?

Therefore, those who know the current affairs are heroes, and those who can bend and stretch are the real men. Only by joining the new Wulian can they survive in the cracks and seek safety. "

In fact, when Lin Zuoguan mentioned that he was going to destroy Hu'an Hall in Xukou Town, he didn't intend to kill chickens and scare monkeys, but to show other halls.

It wasn't because the Hall Master Peng didn't show face just now, he turned his face away and left, but mainly because of the special geographical location of Xukou Town.

This Xujiang River originated from Taihu Lake and flowed into the moat outside Xumen. Xukou Town is located at the junction of Taihu Lake and Xujiang River, and Taihu Lake water flows into Xujiang River from Xukou Town.

The Hu'an Hall in Xukou Town is also different from ordinary halls. The site is not the fields, but the lake.

The main responsibility of Hu'antang is to collect fishing tax from boat owners in Taihu Lake, and to collect some in-kind collections for the government, such as feathers, reeds and other items.

In view of the special geographical location of Xukou Town and the unique attributes of Hu'an Hall, Lin Zuoguan thought it necessary to eat Xukou Town directly.

Soldiers are extremely fast, and when he was urgently mobilizing manpower, Lin Tailai stood at the entrance of Mudu Town, his brows were furrowed, thinking about something.

The Zhang family brothers asked suspiciously: "It's just a trivial matter to flatten the Hu'an hall, why are you so cautious when sitting in the hall?"

Lin Zuoguan replied: "Hu'an Hall is not a problem. I was thinking, how can I plant a spoil on that Xi Dachaofeng."

Now that he knows that someone wants to plot against him, the fool will follow the other party's plot. Of course, he must first find some reason and frame the other party.

The best way to deal with intrigues is to deal with the people who attempt them.

At this time, on the opposite side of the Xu River, there was a tall building boat docked on the shore.

Building ships are expensive both in construction and maintenance, and only the truly rich can afford building ships.

On the top deck of this building ship, a very extravagant sunshade was artificially built with vines.

A few people were sitting in the awning, tasting iced sour plum soup, and watching the excitement on the opposite side of the big pier in Mudu Town.

Among them were two people who were acquainted with Mr. Lin, one was Fan Yunlin, the son-in-law of the Xu family in Huqiu, and the other was Shen Xin, the head of the Shen family, one of the four major families in Mudu Town.

The person in the chief seat was about 40 years old, his hair and beard were neatly trimmed, and he was wearing a white robe with great personality. He was the owner of this building boat, Xi Siwei.

Xishan Xi family has many branches, and this person is the leader of one branch, who is responsible for the business layout of Xi family in Suzhou City and Jianghu affairs.

In the entire Dongting Merchant Gang, Xi Siwei is a very important figure.

Huqiu Xu's family and Mudu Shen's family are both business-oriented, and are inextricably linked with the Dongting Merchant Gang, so it's not surprising that Fan Yunlin and Shen Xin know Xi Da Chaofeng and sit here.

Looking at the opening and closing ceremony of Mudu Port on the other side, Xi Chaofeng smiled to the left and right:

"It's such a lively scene. If Lin Tailai knows that all of this is to make wedding dresses for others, how would he feel?"

The two helpers laughed a few times, but Fan Yunlin and Shen Xin, who had dealt with Lin Tailai, did not speak.

Although they were all people who had been "oppressed" by Lin Tailai and didn't like Lin Tailai very much, they also felt that Xi Chaofeng's words were too pretentious.

Xi Chaofeng put down the jade cup in his hand, stood up and walked to the side of the boat, continued to look at the other side and said:
"For the past ten years, I have been thinking about a question, how can a person like me establish a century-old foundation in Suzhou?

You all know that in my Ming Dynasty, only money is useless, so what if you are as rich as Shen Wansan?
Those of us who have become rich in business are like duckweed without roots, drifting with the tide, without a solid foundation.

Our West Dongting Mountain itself has a lot of people and little land, our Xi family is not good at reading, and I myself have no hope of becoming an official!
Not to mention compared with the official family, even compared with those big families with fields and fields, they have much less influence on the government.

Although it is also possible to use money to make friends with officials, officials are the most unreliable.

For ten years, I have never found a suitable way to give myself a real foundation.

Until Lin Tailai appeared, what he did made my eyes shine. "

Some helpers flattered and said: "Lin Tailai is just a small man from a stick, how can he be compared to a great court official?"

Xi Dachaofeng continued: "You have to admit that this Lin Tailai is indeed a talent.

With Mudu Port Tax Customs as the core, Xujiang as the link, and the towns as the fulcrum, various powers at the grassroots level are integrated, and then the interests are reorganized to form a strong network that can rule the local area.

If this group can be further stabilized and deeply rooted in the local area, it will be difficult for external forces to shake it!
This Lin Tailai model is very groundbreaking and completely different from any previous organizational form. "

The helpers looked at each other in blank dismay, they didn't expect the boss to have such a high evaluation of Lin Tailai as an "opponent".

But the boss can praise the opponent, but they can't praise Lin Tailai as helpers, and suddenly fell into a situation where they have nothing to say.

Xi Dachaofeng leaned on the railing, looked at Mudu Port obsessively, his eyes gradually became abnormal, and said like a dream:

"I really appreciate this model, this model should belong to me, and it's up to me to really complete it!
I should be the chief official of Mudu Port Customs, and I should be the one who monopolizes the upstream and downstream of Xu River!

I should be the one who hijacks the collection of money and food within a radius of twenty or thirty miles, and I should also be the one who holds the money and grain to force the government back!

Including today's switching ceremony, all of this should be mine! "

The rest of the crowd: "."

I didn't expect you, a big boss of the business gang, to be so envious of Lin Tailai's foundation, that you would become obsessed with it here.

Only Mudu Shen's Patriarch served Shen Xin, who vaguely understood Xi Dachao's worship.

It doesn't matter how rich a businessman is, if he is purely rich, the richer he is, the less secure he feels.

Only when you truly have your own foundation that is rooted in the local area can you have a certain sense of security.

Fan Yunlin had no choice but to remind him: "Then Lin Tailai is not easy to get along with."

The implication is that although you, Xi Dachaofeng, are one of the leaders of the Dongting Merchant Gang, don't always talk in your sleep.

Xi Siwei turned his head to look over, and asked indifferently: "Why is it difficult to get along with each other?"

Fan Yunlin replied: "There are two main points. First, he is very good at fighting and has a great reputation in the world;

Second, he has inextricable relationships with many people in the government.As the saying goes, the county magistrate is not as good as the current one. "

Xi Dachaofeng laughed a few times "hahaha", and said contemptuously: "The governor of Jiangnan will return to Suzhou City in the second half of the year, how do you think the government officials Lin Tailai knows are better than the governor?
If Lin Tailai can fight again, can he beat the elite of the [-] Governor's Standard Battalion? "

Fan Yunlin asked: "The governor and the court honor you"

Xi Siwei replied half-covered: "I can only tell you that the governor will help me. Do you think I'm still talking in my sleep?"

What else can Fan Yunlin say, apart from Nanjing in the Jiangnan area, the governor is the biggest official.

Xi Dachaofeng suddenly said: "Miss Fan in Heyitang is from your clan? I heard that she is very smart and capable, and she is a good helper.

Since I lost my wife, I have been living away for a long time, and I have never been able to find a good match.

This lady Fan is very suitable for me, can I become a good friend of Qin and Jin? "

Fan Yunlin: "."

This courtship came without warning, and Fan Yunlin was caught off guard and didn't react.

Xi Dachaofeng added another sentence: "I should not humiliate Lady Fan, and I hope you will connect with me."

Everyone was speechless, you are a grand minister, do you really plan to take over all of Lin Tailai's inheritance?
　It's the end of the month again, ask for a monthly pass!
