In the study room of Ye Mansion, General Ye Tie introduced Guo Zhiping to Ye Mingsheng and said:
"Master, this is Zhuangshi Guo!"
"Guo Zhiping, a common man, has seen General Huwei!"
Guo Zhiping, who followed Ye Tie to pay homage, bowed to Ye Mingsheng with a respectful expression.
After looking up and down at the rising star in front of him, Liaoyang Green Forest, Ye Mingsheng nodded with a smile, pointed to the prepared seats aside and said:
"Without courtesy, Mr. Guo, please take a seat!"
Thank you for the seat! "
After cupping his hands at Ye Mingsheng, Guo Zhiping also sat on the chair.
Although he was very firm in his heart when he saw Ye Mingsheng's decision, as a bandit, Guo Zhiping came to the territory of the army so blatantly, which made him feel a little uneasy. But now that he felt Ye Mingsheng's gentle and friendly attitude, Guo Zhiping The hanging heart in my heart was completely relieved...
"Master, this time Guo Zhuangshi has sent us two thousand shi of food, five hundred bolts of cotton, and thirty bolts of silk." Sitting aside, Ye Tieshi introduced at once:
"oh?"
When Ye Mingsheng heard this, he looked at Guo Zhiping with a little surprise.
Although Ye Tie had reported to him before that Guo Zhanshan did not accept the belongings in Hong Min's warehouse, but sent his eldest son Guo Zhiping to deliver the things to him, so Ye Mingsheng agreed and Guo Zhiping Meet.
But Ye Mingsheng originally thought that the things Guo Zhiping sent would not be valuable, otherwise the bandits would keep them and not send them to him.
He never expected that the gift given to him by Guo Zhanshan, an old bandit, was quite heavy. According to the market price, these things were worth at least one thousand taels of silver.
"Mr. Guo, you are really generous and generous. Since everything has been delivered, Ye will not refuse more. Mr. Guo will go back and thank Mr. Guo for me." Ye Mingsheng said with a smile:
Hearing Ye Mingsheng's thanks, Guo Zhiping became happy. He knew that what he was planning was on the right path, and he immediately replied:
"Master Ye, you're welcome. Hong Min was originally destroyed by you. These things should belong to you. My father and son just ran away."
"Among the things that the traitor Hong Min hid, there were also some homemade weapons. My father thought that Mr. Ye must have disdain for those things, so he decided to keep the things privately, and then moved our village Some of the stored silk has been delivered, please don’t blame Mr. Ye!”
"It doesn't matter, Mr. Guo is sincere, how can I blame him!" Ye Mingsheng said with a smile:
In the atmosphere of hello, me, hello, everyone, Ye Mingsheng exchanged some pleasantries with Guo Zhiping, and then arranged for Guo Zhiping to stay at the best inn in Fengshan County.
"This Guo Zhiping is really calm..." Looking at the location of Jiukong Cliff on the map, Ye Mingsheng said with some emotion:
In his expectation, as Guo Zhanshan's eldest son and Guo Zhanshan's undisputed successor, Guo Zhiping came to meet him in person this time. It must not be as simple as just delivering things. Therefore, Ye Mingsheng had just been waiting for Guo Zhiping. Talk to yourself.
I never thought that Guo Zhiping still had some power. Under the temptation of his own words, he was as slippery as a loach and refused to mention business.
As expected, there is no real scholar under the great reputation.
This rising star from Liaoyang Green Forest, who is famous for his resourcefulness, indeed has some tricks up his sleeve!
Without letting Ye Mingsheng wait too long, after making arrangements for Guo Zhiping at the inn, Ye Tie returned to the study to meet Ye Mingsheng.
Looking at Ye Tie who came back, Ye Mingsheng asked directly:
"Ye Tie, tell me, what do father and son Guo Zhanshan and Guo Zhiping want to do this time?"
Regarding Ye Mingsheng's question, although Ye Tie had already made a guess in his mind, at this time he still thought about it carefully before saying cautiously:
"I asked Guo Zhanshan this question, but he didn't answer me... However, I guess he wanted... to be recruited."
Hearing Ye Tie's answer, Ye Mingsheng was not surprised at all, and just nodded noncommittally.
Seeing this, although Ye Tie wanted to say a few nice words for Guo Zhanshan, he couldn't guess what Ye Mingsheng was thinking. He hesitated for a while and did not say these words. Instead, he said in a low voice:
"Master, the grain and cotton cloth sent by Guo Zhiping have been sent to the warehouse. As for the fifty pieces of silk, I have sent them to the house..."
Ye Mingsheng didn't say anything when he heard this. He just looked at Ye Tie with admiration. Sure enough, Ye Tie was the one who would do it.
"You personally take Guo Zhiping to our military camp tomorrow!" After thinking for a while, Ye Mingsheng ordered:
"Master, I know what to do!"
Ye Tie was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then his heart moved. He understood what Ye Mingsheng meant and said solemnly;
Seeing that he understood, Ye Mingsheng didn't say much. He waved his hand and asked Ye Tie to leave. After thinking for a while, Ye Mingsheng opened the desk drawer, took out a few pages of letter paper from it, and carefully read it again. of study.
Ever since he realized that Guo Zhanshan was trying to show his kindness, Ye Mingsheng entrusted Luo Dabao to investigate this old bandit who had been the king of Zhanshan for many years to see what his intentions were.
Two days ago, the investigation report about Guo Zhanshan was finally delivered to Ye Mingsheng by Luo Dabao himself.
Bandits since ancient times have always carried a banner.
That is "rob the rich, give to the poor, and do justice for heaven!"
Although they all use the same banner to beautify what they do, Ye Mingsheng, who has the memory of the original owner, knows very well that more than 90% of bandits, let alone robbing the rich and giving to the poor, do nothing for them. God is on his way, even if he does not do evil, it is not possible in the fish and meat village...
In this world, although most of the officers and soldiers are not good people, there are many phenomena such as forcibly recruiting civilians, bullying men and dominating women, etc.
But as officers and soldiers, they still have to consider some of the public opinion and some face, and some things should not be done too strictly. For example, when collecting grain, most of them should leave some rations for farmers so that they can survive. Provide them with a steady stream of food.
But most bandits are different. Not only do they steal your things, they also kill your people and sleep with your wife!
But nothing is absolute!
At least judging from the information collected by Ye Mingsheng, this Guo Zhanshan is a rare good person among bandits!
