"Since it's a poor place, how come there are teachers?!" he asked rhetorically.
"In my opinion: If someone is not lying, then the teacher is very suspicious. It is very likely that he is an important figure behind the scenes - Jia Le was introduced by him."
Zhao Yingong's mind was spinning rapidly. Should he catch this teacher? He quickly rejected his idea. Jia Le was insignificant and her superior would not be an important person.
You have to hold them one by one to find out who is behind the scenes.
"Can you keep an eye on this teacher?"
"It's difficult. We don't have any connections with Nanxiawa. It's hard to gain trust by sending people in..."
"Spending money, kidnapping, whatever you want, you have to make a relationship as soon as possible." Zhao Yingong said without hesitation, "I want to know his name, what he looks like, what he does in Nanxiawa, and who he comes in contact with. You Find out as soon as possible and let me know.”
"Okay, I'll do it right away."
Zhao Yingong watched Zhao Tong go out and breathed heavily. He didn't know why he was very uneasy, and a sense of imminent crisis always enveloped him.
It's not that he hasn't thought about the hidden dangers, but the tension of the approaching crisis is something he has never experienced before.
We must find this guy out! The body was broken into pieces! He said hatefully. If only there were a few SWAT guys.
Cao Guangjiu sat respectfully in a private room of a hotel. He has been to this kind of place many times, but only as a companion - the cost here is not a small amount.
It's said to be a private room, but it's actually a small courtyard. The yard is small. But there are also springs and flowing water, and a banana tree in the corner is full of green. Reflecting the pebbles on the floor that had just been sprinkled with water, it was refreshing to look at.
The tea on the table has gone cold, and the six kinds of dried fruit snacks in the Liuzandiao lacquered red fruit plate have not been touched. Outside the wall, the faint sound of sandalwood singing could be heard, which made the courtyard even more lonely.
The curtain was lifted, and a middle-aged scribe came in. Shake the folding fan gently. Cao Guangjiu stood up quickly to greet him: "Shi Weng..."
He was secretly disappointed in his heart. He originally thought that the master would meet him in person at a place like this. Unexpectedly, the person who arrived was still a master - a guest in the master's house.
"Brother Ninth, you are so polite. Let's sit down and talk."
"Yes, thank you Shi Weng."
The scribe known as Shi Weng was not in a hurry to speak. He picked up the teacup and drank a few sips of tea. Used some dried fruit snacks again. Cao Guangjiu was secretly anxious. But he didn't dare to say a word, he just stayed with him respectfully.
After a long time, Shi Weng asked: "How are things going?"
"Thanks to the master, it went very smoothly." Cao Guangjiu immediately informed him and Gou Chengxuan of their recent activities, "...the posters and nursery rhymes have been spread. Recently, the Phoenix Villa has been put on heightened alert, and Zhao Yingong doesn't go out much. I'm afraid, I'm probably already scared."
Then he reported Hao Yuan's plan to send people to instigate Mr. Zhao's "big maid" in the villa. This news aroused Shi Weng's interest.
"Can it be done?"
"Hao Yuan seems to be confident."
"Haha." Shi Weng smiled and nodded. Don't ask further. He pondered for a moment and asked, "What do you think of Hao Yuan?"
"He is thoughtful and sophisticated in his actions. He is definitely not an ordinary person."
"Brother Ninth, you are considered a prostrate hero, and you can only see this little bit of content?" Shi Weng said with a hint of joking.
"I made Shi Weng laugh." Cao Guangjiu quickly cheered up and said, "Then please forgive me for being bold and presumptuous..."
"But it doesn't matter."
"It goes without saying that Hao Yuan is shrewd and capable. But in my opinion: this person has the ability to see things and people with great insight. The most important thing is that no matter where he is, this person is very capable. Wherever you interact with someone, just a few words can make people feel good, and then they are willing to be driven by him. Even if you don’t need money or use the law, people can trust him. He has only been in Nanxiawa for a few months. It has already taught the people within it to be like brothers and sisters.”
"What you said is so miraculous. Could it be that he has magic?"
"There is absolutely no magic." Cao Guangjiu categorically denied, "He does not burn incense, worship gods, and does not perform magic. I once looked for an opportunity to go through his luggage, and there was nothing surprising. He had no scriptures and no weapons. He was there. Nanxiawa also never treats people's illnesses or administers medicine."
"This is strange." Shi Weng twirled his beard and said, "Could he be doing good deeds?"
"Exactly. But he has very little money. Apart from the money the master gave him, he doesn't have any other sources of money. He can only use it for charity. In addition, he has set up a kindergarten in Nanxiawa. "Cao Guangjiu said, "This person is born with the ability to confuse people's hearts: he can speak to people's hearts in a few words, and his words are reasonable and make people understand. He makes people convinced."
Shi Weng listened quietly and asked, "So, Hao Yuan is no longer a creature in the pond?"
Cao Guangjiu's expression suddenly changed. He was so experienced that he couldn't understand what Shi Weng meant by the object in the pond. Not daring to respond directly, he muttered after a while: "It's not that bad..."
"Brother Ninth, you must have been impressed by him too." Shi Weng smiled and shook his head, "My master also asked people to inquire about Hao Yuan's words and deeds. Don't talk about it, just him. Not greedy for money, not afraid of hardship, not afraid of death, not afraid of powerful people, he is deeply loved by Li Shu... Ninth Brother is also a person who has read a lot, so he must know this kind of person."
"Yes, yes." Sweat was already dripping from Cao Guangjiu's forehead.
"Hao Yuan's ambition is not small. He is not popular now. If he becomes popular, what does Zhao Yingong mean?"
"Yes, the master is wise." Cao Guangjiu secretly rejoiced. It seemed that the master had the intention of killing the donkey. Fortunately, he had just said something and did not give him any more carelessness in front of Shi Weng. Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous.
"How is Gou Chengxuan?" Shi Weng suddenly asked him again.
"He is very capable. Although he is young, he is very calm and able to do things well. It can be seen that he has experienced a lot." Cao Guangjiu felt a chill on the back of his neck as he said it: I wonder if anyone has asked Gou Chengxuan the same thing? question.
"Then what--"
Cao Guangjiu knew that if he didn't say something "essential", Shi Weng would never be satisfied.
"He seems to have great hatred in his heart, especially Zhao Yingong. Is there any selfless hatred?" Cao Guangjiu said cautiously, this Gou Chengxuan is not easy to get along with. He was a scoundrel with a good eye for people. The first time he met Gou Chengxuan, he knew that he had suffered a great deal and had an extremely persevering mind. A bachelor in Guangli who is not afraid of being beaten must be a hundred times more vicious than a gangster like him who has a family and a job.
"If not, how could my master use him?" Shi Weng smiled proudly.
"Yes, yes." Cao Guangjiu laughed a few times, hoping that this horrible topic would not continue. With his knowledge, he knew how terrifying Hao Yuan and Gou Chengxuan were, and he was unwilling to offend them by saying the wrong thing.
"You are also a person with a family and a career. As long as you do things with integrity. If things are done well, my master will have to thank you very much."
"Thank you, don't accept it." Cao Guangjiu's attitude was very low, "Please help me!"
"Easy to say." Shi Weng nodded, picked up the tea cup and moistened his throat, and then asked about the preparations for the attack on Phoenix Villa in July and a half.
Cao Guangjiu reported back that the manpower had been arranged. He had already told a dozen of the leaders of the gangs that he wanted to use their people, and had placed a deposit, and he only waited until July and a half to start working together.
During the confidentiality period, he did not reveal who he was going to deal with, nor did he tell them that they were going to do it together. To avoid leaking the news.
"...We can recruit about seven to eight hundred people. These people are all veterans of fighting. They are enough."
There are at least 20,000 to 30,000 people in the villa, but most of them are refugees. These people are not organized, have no training, and have no weapons in their hands, so they have no fighting power. What really needs to be dealt with are the hundreds of servants in the villa.
So far, Cao Guangjiu does not know the specific number of servants in the villa. According to reports from several outside insiders, it is estimated that there are three to four hundred people.
"Are there enough people?"
"That's enough. These few hundred people are the core. Outsiders will have to instigate and coerce a group of people. Otherwise, the momentum will not be strong and the riot will not be able to scale."
In addition to the members of the gang, Cao Guangjiu is also planning to contact Zhang Guangtian and mobilize a group of Buddhists to "defend the Tao and destroy the demons." In addition, the poor who were incited by the unveiling of the poster will also be lured to the gate of the villa.
When Cao Guangjiu said this, he hesitated and then said, "It's just that the money is not enough-"
"Didn't the master already allocate five hundred taels to you for this matter? Isn't it enough for you, the hundreds of people who work in the company, to give five yuan each as a down payment?" Shi Weng looked unhappy, as if he thought he had too much appetite.
Of course Cao Guangjiu made false claims and missed the quota, but he did not bring up the matter of money out of greed for money.
"Shi Weng, you don't know something. There are servants in the villa, and Zhao Yingong is a gentry. It is a hard ground in the eyes of the society, and they have to bear the risk of casualties. If the people who fight the society do not receive a big reward by then, they will make a temporary noise. If you don’t want to go, it will be very troublesome.”
"What do you mean?"
"Please tell Mr. Shi that you need a heavy reward before going out into battle. Each person should have at least one tael."
"I didn't expect that you warriors are just like officers and soldiers." The scribe laughed. "If you don't fight, you have to pay for your home, and if you go into battle, you have to pay for departure."
"I don't dare, I don't dare." Cao Guangjiu quickly defended, "Shi Weng, you don't know the rules of the club. They have black eyes and only recognize silver. If they don't have money and courage, they will never do it."
"Okay, it's up to you. I will prepare some money when the time comes." Shi Weng closed the fan with a swipe. He smiled and said, "After breaking up the Phoenix Villa, are you afraid that you won't have the money to get it? These people are really short-sighted!"
"Thank you Shi Weng for your understanding! In addition, I also ask Shi Weng to tell the master: we need to save a few lives."
"Human life?" (To be continued...)
