Wang Hu is not afraid of Cao An.
Really, he is really not afraid...
But this young man's eyes are so evil, it makes people feel hairy all over!
He frowned slightly, then put on a smile, and joked: "Don't worry, Mr. Lang, we will still cooperate in the future. How can I be willing to let you be in danger?"
"It better be."
Cao An's eyes were not moved at all, and he said calmly: "Although most of X's subordinates are rogues, these people are still somewhat useful in Bianliang."
The biggest use of rogues is to cause trouble.
They may not have much fighting ability, and they may not be very smart, but as long as you are willing to give money, they can turn everything upside down for you.
Wang Hu's organization wants to take root in Bianliang, and gangsters are their best cover.
Cao An's meaning is very clear...
I can't beat you, but I dare to risk my life.
If you don’t believe it, let’s try it!
Wang Hu wiped the sweat off his face, nodded and said with a smile: "Yes! The villain naturally knows Lang Jun's abilities. And don't worry, His Majesty has specifically told me to let the villain fully cooperate with you."
"It's funny to say..."
Cao An looked at him and said playfully: "You take someone's salary, but you have to take orders from others. If someone wants to use you, you have to see if others agree. Why does someone feel that he is a big injustice?"
"this……"
The corner of Wang Hu's mouth twitched: "There's nothing I can do about it, I just obey orders."
"Then tell me, if I don't need you anymore, what will happen to you?"
Cao An still smiled and said casually: "No matter who you cooperate with, it's cooperation! I believe there are many talents in your organization. If someone asks for a replacement, do you think Madam Liu will agree?"
Damn it!
Wang Hu's heart skipped a beat.
He had never underestimated Cao An, but he didn't expect to be taken advantage of.
Judging from Wang Hu's reaction, Cao An already got the answer he wanted.
No organization is monolithic.
Even the imperial court is like this, let alone a group of bandits?
As long as there is a breakthrough point, this matter can be solved! Who can guarantee that no one in that so-called 'organization' will meet Cao An's 'appetite'?
"Haha, it's just a joke, look at how scared you are!"
He immediately changed his expression: "I think you are quite handy, so... if you have financial needs, just say so, you're welcome!"
Wang Hu just breathed a sigh of relief and was stunned again.
How does he know that someone needs money recently?
The Venerable didn't know why he got on the wrong train, but he actually asked him to raise two thousand guan...
But the problem is, not all rogues can be as rich as Cao An!
He only has more than 200 guan every year. Even if all commissions and bonuses are included, he won't be able to make up 2,000 guan in a short time!
"you……"
Wang Hu was a little embarrassed at first, then suddenly his eyes widened: "It's you!"
No wonder!
This matter must have been caused by Cao An, otherwise why would a person like the Venerable, who has always been indifferent to money, suddenly ask himself to make money...
Cao An definitely said something behind his back, so His Holiness felt that he was corrupt, so he punished him!
"Work hard, money is not an issue."
Cao An didn't waste any words, patted him on the shoulder and said: "As long as your heart is with me, even if you are just a little loyal... I am not stingy."
"...Lang Jun has a good trick!"
Wang Hu gritted his teeth, lowered his head helplessly and said: "The villain will not harm the gentleman, please rest assured!"
Cao An’s methods!
Wang Hu was finally scared this time...
He can be cheated once, he can be cheated twice!
If Cao An wanted to kill himself, he would probably no longer be here!
…
The relief process was swift.
All the victims who were hiding in the city came out in a short time.
Everyone happily received the rations, then gathered together spontaneously and followed the food transport team out of the city.
More than a thousand refugees outside the city are also receiving food rations.
It's just not as smooth as in the city...
A few refugees with doubts were making a fuss.
"It's only been one day! But how many people can feed just these few carts of food? What if we leave Bianliang and run out of food again..."
"Yes, it will take at least two months to go back! How much food will we need to eat? Not to mention there are many refugees along the way. There will always be a day when we run out!"
"What if we finish eating and we can't go back? What if the court doesn't care about it after we go back? There is no rain this summer, and the autumn harvest will definitely be hopeless! How will we survive next year?"
This is the Song Dynasty...
The people did not have much confidence in the imperial court, so they were always on tenterhooks every day.
In other dynasties, they ate up their remaining grain, then went to the streets to beg, and then fled... But here in the Song Dynasty, they went out before dawn!
First, the court was harsh on the people, leaving them with little surplus food reserves.
Besides, everyone knows Bianliang is good!
People across the country pay so many exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes every year, don’t they all end up here?
more importantly……
The cost of rebellion in the Song Dynasty was very low!
Moreover, the Song Dynasty did not kill people. To be precise, it rarely killed people.
Don’t kill your own people, don’t kill your enemies…
On the tower.
Cao An looked at the refugees under the city and wondered whether he should laugh or cry: "What do you think you can do with so much money?"
"What?"
Wang Hu didn't react.
"Collecting so many taxes every year, eventually the people will have no food to eat - rebel! Then the court will spend money to provide disaster relief and quell rebellions, and they will have to recruit these people into the Xiang army to support them. Then they will charge high taxes... Damn it! "
Didn’t you vomit after eating this?
Wang Hu couldn't help but laugh, shook his head and said: "Money is only money when it is in your pocket, and it is different when it goes in and out. The money of the court is also different from the money of the local government."
"That's right!"
Cao An also laughed: "I didn't expect that you are really a damn talent!"
"Haha, Lang Jun laughed."
Wang Hu rolled his eyes and looked away.
…
The officers transporting grain outside the city were extremely annoyed.
He shouted loudly: "If you don't want to leave, stand up now! Don't worry, I don't have to force you. You can leave on your own, and I'm free to go wherever you want!"
Now, the refugees were silent again.
"Where can I go?"
There was a rogue who slipped into the crowd, and his acting skills were top-notch...
He raised his head and sighed, wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes: "Anyway, I want to go home! Home is my harbor, the place where I live and die!"
The more suffering a place feels, the more vulnerable people's hearts are and the easier it is to empathize.
Many people were crying now.
"Who doesn't want to go home?"
"Since the imperial court is willing to provide disaster relief and wants to send us back, it probably won't break its promise, otherwise someone will make a fuss... Go back, isn't it just waiting to die here?"
"You're right, you're waiting to die here! In that case, you might as well be a dead man!"
Todoroki was immediately suppressed.
The victims began to queue up to receive food rations.
The officer looked forward, but his peripheral vision was not far away from the troublemakers just now.
He quietly called for his subordinates and said coldly in a low voice: "Cao Sijian's method is indeed effective. These people are spies at first glance and are deliberately inciting the refugees to cause trouble!"
"But there are many instigators. How can we confirm it?"
"That, that...and those few! No need to confirm, it must be!"
The officer identified them one by one with his eyes and sneered: "Cao Sijian said: Not active in eating, there is a problem with thinking! Look at them... they all get the rations first and then make trouble, but they didn't get it! This is not intentional. What?"
The soldier looked astonished and praised in a low voice: "Yes, Cao Sijian is indeed wise!"
The officer sneered: "Have people watch them to death! We'll be on the road later, do it quietly... No need to interrogate, just execute them on the spot!"
"yes!"
The soldier bowed his head and promised.
