Lin Feng was thinking about Yao Xing and Pu Hong. After thinking about it, he planned to invite Cui Yuantu back to discuss the matter. But before he had time to inform him, the heads of other families came to pay their respects one after another.
The heads of these families no longer have Ma Teng's courage. When they came to visit, they first thanked Lin Feng verbally and expressed their gratitude to Lin Feng for arranging the tea business, and then expressed their willingness to fully support Lin Feng's farming and other policies.
In fact, it's just words.
Lin Feng talks about people and ghosts, dealing with people from various major families.
First it was Ma Teng, and then the people from the major families. Obviously, as Lin Feng had speculated before, these people knew about Zhang Zhao and learned that the Zhang family had benefited. They were all jealous, and they came to visit in a hurry.
It's just that different people handle it differently.
The Zhang Feng Mansion surrendered directly and gave Lin Feng another 200,000 kilograms of grain, so Lin Feng was willing to reciprocate the favor.
When Ma Teng came to visit, he gave an extremely crucial piece of news and supported 300,000 kilograms of grain. Even so, what Lin Feng gave to the Ma family was just a quota to assist Cui Yuantu in handling the tenants and farmers, and let Ma Laifu give it a try.
If Ma Laifu is suitable and capable, Lin Feng will not hesitate to promote him. If Ma Laifu doesn't have the ability and can't calm down, it will just stop there.
The other families are much different.
Lin Feng didn't have the patience to argue with people from major families, so he talked briefly for a while and then served tea to see off the guests. Lin Feng returned to the study and arranged for someone to invite Cui Yuantu back. The news I received was that Cui Yuantu went to the local area to inspect the land and could not come back for the time being.
Lin Feng could only wait.
In the afternoon, Ma Laifu personally delivered 300,000 kilograms of grain. Fortunately, people from the Ma family kept moving it without any trouble. All the grain was successfully delivered to the grain depot for storage.
In fact, food cannot withstand consumption.
Road construction consumes a lot of money. Even if the method of road construction is changed and the mountain road is contracted, the mountain road is divided into sections and laid down, which increases the speed of road construction. However, the number of people is still so large, and the food consumed every day is still the same. and a lot of meat.
The food provided by Zhang Feng Mansion has been sent.
This batch of 300,000 kilograms will probably not take long to be delivered.
Lin Feng had previously made a lot of money by ransacking homes, etc. Otherwise, it would have been quite difficult to get this project running. It all depends on court subsidies. The problem is that the Qin court is in financial difficulties and has no spare money to support Lin Feng.
After the food was handed over, towards evening, Cui Yuantu came back. He entered the study, bowed his head and said, "Master Hou."
Lin Feng chuckled and said, "Uncle Cui, there is no need to be so restrained. There are no outsiders here."
Cui Yuantu said: "There is a difference between superiority and inferiority."
Lin Feng was too lazy to persuade and went straight to the point: "Ma Teng came to see me and told me a piece of news. He said that there were rumors that Yao Xing and Pu Hong secretly returned to Guzang County and were plotting to kill me. In addition, Ma Teng also gave me a gift. Come here with three hundred thousand catties of grain."
Cui Yuantu suddenly laughed when he heard this, and said: "What, is Ma Teng showing his kindness? The sudden donation of food was more than what Zhang Feng Mansion had given before. Could it be that Ma Teng also wanted to submit to the Marquis? ?”
Lin Feng briefly talked about Zhang Zhao's affairs and continued: "Ma Teng gave me support, and I also asked people from the Ma family to help you check the land. Ma Teng asked his son Ma Laifu to assist you, and you can arrange for him to do things. If you have the ability, use it; if you don't, just leave it aside. Tomorrow morning, he will come to the county government office to find you."
"This is a good thing."
The smile on Cui Yuantu's face became even wider.
He rubbed his hands and said: "It just so happened that I was really short of people around me. A large number of people were mobilized to build roads and boil salt in Lianhua Mountain. I checked the land in Guzang County, but there was not enough manpower, and the amount of work was Too big."
"Although there is the original land fish scale yellow book, in fact, you cannot simply believe it. You have to read it again, which is time-consuming."
"Ma Teng's son is a local and is familiar with the situation."
"This Ma Teng is a timely gift. It came at the right time. Not only did he give me food, but he also gave me a person to take care of. Good, good, good."
Cui Yuantu did not conflict with the Zhang family, Ma family and other major families. These people were on Lin Feng's side.
It's best if you can use it.
He wished that other big families would follow suit.
When Cui Yuantu thought of this, his eyes became even brighter, and he suddenly said: "Master Hou, haven't the other major families learned from Ma Teng and donated some food and money to relieve our financial pressure?"
"Uncle Cui, you are thinking too much."
Lin Feng chuckled and said, "Not everyone has the courage of Zhang Feng and Ma Teng. If Zhang Feng dares to give out 200,000 kilograms of grain, he is betting that I will not treat him badly. Ma Teng He dares to bet because he is ambitious and unwilling to lose to the Zhang Feng Mansion, and he has seen the Zhang family’s precedent.”
"The rest of the heads of big families are far behind. These people are just talking words and don't have much courage."
"Actually, that's a good thing."
"If everyone is Zhang Fengfu or Ma Teng, that would be abnormal."
Lin Feng plans to train Zhang Fengfu and Ma Teng. They start from the beginning with Lin Feng and can be used for a long time. In the future, when the Zhang family and the Ma family grow stronger, they will belong to Lin Feng's family.
Cui Yuantu said: "There is nothing much to say here among the major families. The first priority now is the Qiang people and their enemies."
Lin Feng said: "The reason why I invited Uncle Cui here is to discuss this matter and find a solution. Yao Xing and Pu Hong are both fish that slipped through the net. This must be solved. I think it is better to trust them." Yes. Otherwise, if they make trouble when collecting taxes, it will be troublesome."
Cui Yuantu said: "Master Hou, I have an idea."
Lin Feng said: "What can we do?"
Cui Yuantu said directly: "Lead the snake out of the hole, lure Yao Xing and Pu Hong out, and then ambush them."
Lin Feng also had a smile in his eyes.
Lure the snake out of its hole.
Same idea as him.
You are going to search for Yao Xing and Pu Hong. You don’t know if there is anyone there or where they are? Totally a needle in a haystack. The best way is to lure the snake out of its hole and lure the opponent out, so that you can catch them all in one go.
If you want to do it, you must do it absolutely.
This is Lin Feng's consistent method.
Cui Yuantu continued: "Yao Xing and Pu Hong know the strength of the Marquis, but they dare to come back for revenge. I think they must have found a master. Without such masters, they cannot assassinate the Marquis. If we want to set a trap, we can't It’s just that the Marquis is a Grandmaster, so I need another one.”
"There are two Grandmaster realms. With the strength of the Marquis, even if the opponent is three Grandmasters, I won't be afraid. I suggest that you ask Meng Ao to help. He is a military general and a master of the Grandmaster realm. There are Meng Ao and Hou Ye. Together, everything will go well.”
Lin Feng said: "This place in Men'ao is indeed the key. However, it is still not enough."
Cui Yuantu said: "What is the plan of the Marquis?"
Lin Feng took advantage of the situation and said: "First, when Yao Xing and Pu Hong come back, there must be more than one or two people. They have a group of soldiers under their command. If these two people want to kill me, they will definitely come out in full force. To deal with Yao Xing and Pu Hong, we must also Destroy the power under their command."
"While inviting Meng Ao, we also need Meng Ao to mobilize his soldiers to prepare secretly in order to deliver a fatal blow at the critical moment."
"Secondly, the power of Yao Xing and Pu Hong, as Uncle Cui mentioned, would be a bit troublesome if there were three grandmasters. Although I can kill the grandmaster, what if Meng Ao loses to the opponent's grandmaster? The situation will be dangerous. .”
"If we have three masters, the problem will be solved."
"I don't think Yao Xing and Pu Hong can gather more masters. So, we arranged for people to send a message to Pegasus Village quickly, asking Lu Feitian to come to Guzang County. With Lu Feitian and Meng Ao, the three of us Grandmaster, as stable as a mountain, there won’t be any problems.”
"Third, this time to lure the snake out of the cave. For the detailed route, I think we can go to the place where the Qiang tribe gathered before. The reason is to investigate the local land. Uncle Cui spread the news in advance. I believe that if Pu Hong and Yao Xing are here, they will definitely Take action."
"If Pu Hong and Yao Xing don't take action this time, I'm afraid the news that they came back from hiding may be false."
"That's roughly it, Uncle Cui, what do you think?"
Lin Feng finished explaining his thoughts.
His plan was also to lure the snake out of its hole, but more cautiously.
Be cautious and there is no big mistake.
When it comes to fighting, there is no room for regret.
Cui Yuantu said: "The Marquis has thought carefully and followed this strategy."
Lin Feng said: "Uncle Cui, please hurry up and release the news about my itinerary for the next two or three days. It is confirmed that in two days, I will go to the tribe where the Qiang people lived in the past to have a look."
Cui Yuantu agreed and got up to make arrangements. The next morning, it was reported that Lin Feng was going to start inspecting the local land survey. The news about Lin Feng's inspection of the Qiang tribe was also spread out, and the news about Lin Feng's inspection of the Qiang tribe was naturally known to many people.
