For Li Yunze, there is no one in the world whom he cannot use.
So what about the King of Tota? It’s no big deal to take the blame on you.
As for talking about developing power in the military and hollowing out one's own corner, that's just a joke.
Having traveled across so many worlds, Li Yunze knew very well that if he wanted to raise an army, he needed money and food. biquge.biz
If you don’t have money or food, why should you poach someone? Just because you have a great reputation in the world, you will bow to me if you accept your request?
The sergeants are not shackles. They know very clearly who gives them food and clothes.
Just trying to draw people away with sweet words is simply overthinking.
Li Yunze understood what Chao Gai meant, which was to gain his trust and use his trust to control the Forbidden Army.
Come on then, I won’t trick you to death.
"I've heard about the reputation of the three brothers of the Ruan family for a long time." Li Yunze held a wine glass and drank with the three brothers of the Ruan family. "Sure enough, it's better to meet each other than to be famous. Come, come, drink this cup."
The three brothers of the Ruan family are all real men. Li Yunze was so generous, so naturally he happily toasted and drank together.
Chao Gai wanted to poach him, and he also wanted to poach Chao Gai.
Wu Yong or not, this guy is a real Wu Yong scholar. It might be okay to create a robbery or something, but it's just shit when it comes to the actual battlefield.
Both parties had their own plans, so naturally they felt at home and had a great time drinking and having fun.
After the banquet, the drunk Li Yunze stayed at Chao Gai's house.
Chao Gai and others gathered together over there, discussing today's matters in a low voice.
"Brother, that Wu Er is a good person." Ruan Xiaoer blushed and burped, "He is a real person."
Chao Gai looked at him and said nothing.
He himself was only a reserve general, but the three Ruan brothers actually became reserve generals. Li Yunze even allowed them to recruit fishermen in Liangshan Boli to form their own team.
Moreover, these three brothers didn't even refuse, they simply agreed happily.
This made the arrogant Chao Gai very unhappy.
Wu Yong quietly kicked Chao Gai, then stepped forward with a smile, took Ruan Xiaoer's hand and said, "Brother has an official status now. When he goes back, he must be good at attracting people and work for brother Chao Gai in the future." "
Ruan Xiaoer patted his chest and assured that there was no problem, while Ruan Xiaowu and Ruan Xiaoqi frowned slightly.
They are now regarded as Wu Er's subordinates, so what does it mean to work for Chao Gai...
Li Yunze outside the room smiled slightly and slowly retreated.
Early the next morning, Li Yunze got up and left a large amount of money for each of the three Ruan brothers and Chao Gai, saying it was the settlement expenses for recruiting people, and then left Shi Shiran and headed for Yuncheng County.
"Brother Ruan, give me the money." After Wu Yong's persuasion, Chao Gai's face improved. Seeing Li Yunze leaving, he directly asked the Ruan brothers for money.
The three Ruan brothers changed their expressions slightly. This was the first time they had received so much money, and it was still money from a regular source.
Chao Gai asked for it, this is really...
Ruan Xiaoer was a simple and honest man, and he was relatively loyal to Chao Gai, so he subconsciously wanted to give him money.
Unexpectedly, Ruan Xiaoqi stepped forward and grabbed him, "Brother Chao Gai, this is what the general gave us and our brothers to use to recruit manpower. You have taken it. How can we recruit men?"
.... Ruan Xiaowu said, "Yes, yes."
"Huh?" Chao Gai was immediately furious, "You used to eat, drink and use my food all day long. Now you ask me if I need some money to do business, and you are so pushy. What is the meaning of this?!"
Chao Gai has a great reputation because he is the Baozheng of Dongxi Village and the biggest rich man in the village.
Only when you have money can you make friends and raise good men.
In the past, the three Ruan brothers ate and drank at his place and had to take it away after leaving. They had indeed received many favors.
"Brother, don't be angry." Wu Yong hurriedly persuaded and comforted each other.
After some reasoning, it was finally decided that the three Ruan brothers would give half of the money and keep half for themselves.
No matter which side it is, everyone is dissatisfied with this distribution method.
Seeing the three Ruan brothers leaving in anger, Wu Yong stamped his feet eagerly, "Hey, brother Chao Gai, why do you have to do this!"
"snort."
Chao Gai waved his sleeves in displeasure, "If you want to seize power with soldiers, it's useless to say anything without money and food. I want their money, just to do big things! I don't know what is good or bad."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and raised his head and sneered, "He's just a mere fisherman, but he actually becomes a preparer like a certain person. I really don't know what to say."
Wu Yong sighed in his heart, this is the real reason.
How could the arrogant Chao Gai endure it when his former younger brother was actually on an equal footing with him.
He knew Chao Gai's temper, so he had no choice but to wait until Chao Gai died down.
"Second brother, Chao Bao is unreasonable. Why should he ask for the money the general gave us?"
On the way home, Ruan Xiaoqi was indignant.
"Yes, yes." Ruan Xiaowu agreed from the side.
"That's all." Ruan Xiaoer sighed and waved his hands, "I have received many favors from Brother Chao Gai in the past, so don't say any more."
"Why are you so impatient and righteous that you took the initiative to ask me to wait?" Ruan Xiaoqi sneered, "Now you actually want money? Then why didn't you say it when you asked me to wait for food, drinks and fun!"
"Okay." Ruan Xiaoer showed off his brother's style, "Stop talking!"
Li Yunze's little plan and a mere amount of money almost made the former good brothers fall out on the spot.
Sure enough, brothers cannot raise money or power among themselves.
After arriving at Yuncheng County with his entourage, Li Yunze first went to the county government office to visit the county magistrate.
The purpose is simple, to get money and food from the Imperial Army.
The so-called banning of the army based on food means that food should be kept in the local area, and food should be eaten in the local area and drank in the local area, so as to reduce the burden on the court.
But the local government was under the jurisdiction of civil servants. Of course they would not have a good impression of the imperial army who asked for money and food.
In other words, it's all disgusting.
The county magistrate grumbled and picked up the tea bowl, "Bandits are rampant in this county, and disasters have happened again. The money for disaster relief has not yet been received. How can there be money and food for the imperial army."
Li Yunze, who looked arrogant, crossed his legs and said, "Your county has been in arrears with money and food for too long, and the last time it paid money and food was more than 20 years ago. If you still don't pay, then I will go to Bianliang City and ask the Taiwei to make the decision!" The evaluation of the county magistrate may not look good."
.... Although it is easy to be an official here in the Song Dynasty, there are still evaluations.
If the evaluation is not good, then there is little hope of moving up.
He has to become a subordinate in the county, and the county magistrate will let him know why the flowers are so red.
But Li Yunze was from the Forbidden Army system and was not under his control at all.
"Haha~~~" A smile immediately appeared on the magistrate's face, "General, there is no need to worry, this matter can be discussed slowly. It's a coincidence now, how about we go have a drink together first?"
Originally, the county magistrate shouldn't be so easy to talk to, but who made him want to go to a higher level, and he also received news from friends in Bianliang City that the person in front of him had hooked up with a certain Taiwei.
This is why he is easy to talk to.
If it were the former unmanned man who was asking for money and food, the magistrate wouldn't even bother to see him.
"Can."
Li Yunze stood up with a smile, "Then I'm sorry."
Wenbin, the county magistrate, smiled and invited many subordinate officials in the government office to go to the restaurant for a banquet.
There were many people accompanying him, but the one who attracted Li Yunze's attention the most was a man with eyes like red phoenixes and eyebrows like lying silkworms. He was short in stature, only taller than Wu Dalang, and his face was as dark as a strong man with black spots.
"Who is that?" When he arrived at the restaurant, Li Yunze pointed at the person. "The image is so outstanding."
Shi Wenbin took one look, stroked his beard and smiled, "That's the county police chief, named Song Jiang and Song Gongming."
Li Yunze raised his eyebrows and smiled, "It turns out it was the famous Shi Yu who called for protection, which is disrespectful."
Song Jiang hurriedly stood up and saluted, "The general is overly praised. His friends in the world gave him face. It's just a slight reputation."
Shi Wenbin waved his hand, showing no interest in such political affairs, "Let's all take a seat."
Everyone sat down separately, the banquet dishes were served, and the atmosphere gradually became warm while changing glasses.
"Gentlemen."
The smiling shopkeeper came over and saluted, "Would you like to listen to some music?"
Li Yunze looked at Shi Wenbin, and the county magistrate nodded with a smile, "Then just listen."
After a short while, two women, one old and one young, came in holding pipa.
The older one just passed by, but the younger one made the veteran driver Li Yunze’s eyes light up.
There is a dark cloud across her bun, and the crescent moon is half-curved across her eyebrows. The rhyme is like a begonia flower in the wind, and the pattern is like a plum tree in the snow.
Duanduan is a beautiful bird with a beautiful face and a beautiful jade.
Li Yunze subconsciously smiled like a thief.
Shi Wenbin on the side saw this scene and immediately greeted with a smile, "Come forward and talk."
When the mother and daughter came forward, Shi Wenbin asked, "Where are you waiting for?"
The old man stepped forward and replied, "I'm going back to the magistrate and the Prime Minister. We, my mother and my daughter, are originally from Tokyo. We wanted to come here to join our relatives. Unexpectedly, our relatives have died of illness. An official in the family has died of illness and there is no money to bury us. We, our mother and daughter, have nowhere to go." But I have no choice but to make a living by singing here.
"
Next to him, Li Yunze asked the girl, "What's your name?"
Feeling Li Yunze's gaze, the girl bowed her head shyly, "My name is Yan Poxi."
Hearing this name, Li Yunze subconsciously looked at the timely rain.
'Haha, you look like a thief all over your face. Even with such a dark face, you can't hide your true nature! "Looking at Songjiang who looked like a pig brother, Li Yunze felt very contemptuous.
...."He is also a poor man." Li Yunze looked away, his words full of pity.
He reached out and took the bundle from his entourage, opened it and revealed at least two hundred taels of silver ingots inside. He stood up and stuffed it directly into the girl's arms, "Take it to bury your father."
Holding the heavy amount of money, Yan Poxi was at a loss and said, "There are too many high-ranking officials."
"If it's too much, just swallow it...ahem." Li Yunze chuckled and waved his hand, "It's easier to do it in a more graceful manner. The rivers and lakes are here to help. No need to be polite."
The subordinate officials in the surrounding yamen immediately booed. Zhu Tong, Lei Heng and others clapped their hands and cheered, and some shouted, "You are so kind, why don't you give me your body?" '
The way the girl looked at Li Yunze was indeed different.
Li Yunze's demeanor, figure and appearance absolutely overwhelmed everyone present.
Moreover, he was so generous and sitting next to the magistrate. There is no doubt that he is a big shot, at least in Yuncheng County.
In comparison, Song Jiang, who can only sit in the corner, is short and dark, has no need to compare, and is not on the same level at all.
"My benefactor is so kind and kind, but this little girl has nothing to repay."
Hearing Yan Poxi say this, Li Yunze couldn't help but laugh.
'If he is handsome and rich, he should be willing to commit himself later. If the person is ugly, short, dark, and has no money, he or she will tie a grass ring in the next life to repay the benefactor for his kindness. '
Li Yunze was very familiar with this routine.
Sure enough, the young lady looked at Li Yunze with a pair of beautiful eyes that were as clear as paint, and lightly opened her red lips, "Young lady is willing to dedicate herself to me to repay my benefactor for your great kindness."
