Gao Kan agreed to go down to Huangmen Mountain to suppress the bandits. Liang Shijie was overjoyed, but he didn't forget what Gao Kan had said. He was only halfway through what he said when he asked again.
"My nephew originally told me about the banditry in Liangshan. What happened next?"
Hearing this, Gao Kan continued: "My uncle is aware that among the villain's subordinates, he knows the Liangshan bandits. He once told his nephew that the leader of Liangshan is called Chao Gai. There is a man named 'Tota King', and the green forest bandits are called Chao Gai." Just say 'Chao Tianwang' and your reputation will be great."
"This person is originally from Shandong. He was from the same hometown as Song Jiang who they robbed at the Jiangzhou Prefecture execution ground."
"Song Jiang is good at winning people's hearts. He was originally a police officer in Yuncheng County, Shandong Province. He was known as 'Shandong Hubaoyi', also known as 'Timely Rain'. He often interacted with bandits in Shandong. Chao Gai was chased by the army earlier, so he With the favor of Song Jiang, he fled to Liangshan, killed the original leader of Liangshan, and became the mountain king himself."
Liang Shijie didn't know that such a thing was happening, and his expression changed again and again after hearing Gao Kan's words.
Before Gao Kan finished speaking, he continued: "Chao Gai is a man of justice and has quite a reputation in the grassland. He has many good players around him. Others are nothing, but there are three people who need attention. They are called Thunderbolt Fire Qin Ming and Xiao Li Guanghua Rong. , Black Whirlwind Li Kui, these three are highly skilled in martial arts, and they all have courage that no one can match."
"In addition, there is a white-faced scholar beside Chao Gai, known as 'Zhi Duo Xing', named Wu Yong. This man is best at conspiracy and is the strategist of the thieves in Liangshan."
"Good nephew, if I don't listen to what you say, we won't have a clue to destroy the bandits." Liang Shijie clapped his hands and praised.
Gao Kan refused and said humbly: "My uncle is ridiculous. My nephew only heard that the bandits in Liangshan gathered all kinds of bandits with the intention of harming the Daming Mansion. My uncle is a humble gentleman and an important minister in the high court. He is not as insidious and cunning as such bandits. I'm afraid that because I don't know the reason, I might be tricked into trapping you, so I'm just saying this."
"In my nephew's opinion, what should be done with this extermination?" Liang Shijie asked again.
Hearing this, Gao Kan cupped his hands and said: "My nephew dare not speak nonsense, but he has heard about the reputation of Lu Junyi, the Yuqilin of Hebei. There is also Suo Chao, the left-behind general of Daming Prefecture, who is also famous. If my uncle can take Lu Junyi as his general, he will be called Suo Chao is the vanguard, even if the Liangshan bandits are cunning and insidious this time, they will at most flee in a panic and will not dare to invade Daming Mansion at all!"
"I know Suo Chao, but he is a tiger general. This is Lu Junyi. I have never heard of him before." Liang Shijie frowned and said in doubt.
Suo Chao was originally a general in the army of Daming Prefecture. As the prefect of Daming Prefecture, Liang Shijie certainly knew about it.
The Liangshan bandits hid around Daming Mansion and gathered bandits from all over the country with the intention of threatening Daming Mansion. At the beginning, someone recommended Suo Chao to him.
Liang Shijie only knew Suo Chao's name, but not his abilities, so he didn't make a decision.
After listening to Gao Kan's words, he took a high look at him again, but this person fell into the hands of that man named Lu Junyi. He could only be a pioneer general, and the coach even asked Lu Junyi to come.
I couldn't help but feel suspicious, so I asked questions.
Gao Kan was not in a hurry and said with a smile: "My uncle is an important official in the official family. He came to Daming Mansion with Zhongshu to govern the place. He has made great contributions to the governance of the people. Sooner or later he will return to Bianliang, Tokyo. He is also a public minister. Chang, Lu Junyi is just a local tycoon. Even if he has some false reputation, it is only spread among the people. It is unusual that my uncle has never heard of it."
"My nephew often travels among the people, and he only heard about Lu Junyi's name. Uncle, despite his lack of declaration, he must be the one to resist the Liangshan bandits this time. If my uncle doesn't believe it, my nephew is willing to fight against the Huangmenshan bandits before he suppresses them. Let’s go to Lu Junyi’s house first and invite him to meet his uncle.”
"Oh? This will take a lot of effort from my nephew."
Although Liang Shijie suspected that Lu Junyi was not as capable as Gao Kan said, since Gao Kan recommended him so highly, he must not be a mediocre person.
What's more, without asking him to exert any effort, there is currently no good strategy in the city to wipe out the Liangshan bandits.
Why not ask Gao Kan to go and invite Lu Junyi? If he is really a great talent, wouldn't it be a good thing to be under his command?
By the way, you can also sell Gaokan a favor.
When Gao Kan saw that Liang Shijie agreed, he was secretly happy. He also had a temporary idea, and now he had a high-sounding reason to meet Lu Yuanwai, who was powerful in Hebei.
I wonder how Yan Qing is at home now.
After some preaching, proper enquiries, and a magistrate's warrant from Liang Shijie, which allowed him to freely enter and leave Daming Mansion, Gao Kan resigned.
As soon as I came out of Zhongshu Mansion, I saw Shi Wenxin still waiting at the door.
As soon as he saw him coming out, Lian Ying stepped forward and said respectfully: "Young master, you are coming out. Please tell me to wait. What does Master Zhongshu say?"
Hearing this, Gao Kan said with a smile: "I really deserve to be punished for keeping you waiting. Master Zhongshu gave me a warrant and asked me to do something."
"Young Master is indeed a god. Now that I have received the order from Master Zhongshu, you will be able to travel freely in Daming Mansion in the future. I will ask you to give me more support," Shi Wen said heartily.
"You're welcome, sir. You and I are both members of our own family and we don't speak the same language." Gao Kan said with a smile.
It is said that the king of hell is easy to talk to, but the devil is difficult to deal with.
A person like Shi Wenxin doesn't have a big official position and doesn't have much ability, but it's just about the upper and lower joints.
At certain times, certain things can only be handled properly by this group of people.
Anyway, just a few words to make friends, there are many benefits, why not do it?
Shi Wenxin was filled with joy after hearing Gao Kan's words, and kept silent about everything. Of course, what his subordinates reported to him was to be done beautifully for Gao Kan no matter what.
He also heard that Master Zhongshu had asked Gao Kan to handle important matters. Shi Wenxin did not dare to linger for long, so he even said goodbye and left.
Gao Kan went all the way back to the inn and summoned people from all walks of life to discuss matters.
After sitting down in the backyard, he said: "Everything is in order for this trip to Daming Mansion. I just asked Mr. Liang Zhongshu of Daming Mansion to go to the house and give orders to an officer. I cannot escape and return to Tokyo for the time being."
At this point, he turned to Tian Mi: "I will leave the matter of transporting grain to Shopkeeper Tian and Hong Bashi. All the officials of the Shipping Department and the Yamen have been taken care of, and the documents are all complete. You can just do it now." .”
"Please rest assured, young master, I will escort you carefully." Tian Milian said.
Gao Kan nodded and said to Lin Chong: "As for Coach Lin, please take the trouble to come with me and spend some time."
"Young Master's orders, I will not give up even if I die." Lin Chong cupped his fists and cupped his hands.
As soon as the general's instructions were in place, he asked Tian Mi to lead people to do things, leaving Lin Chong behind.
After the others had retreated, Lin Chong asked: "Sir, what did Master Zhongshu ask you to do?"
"Two things, one is to wipe out the bandits in Huangmen Mountain, and the other is to go to Yuan Wai Lu's house and ask Yuan Wai Lu to meet Mr. Zhongshu."
Gao Kan smiled.
Hearing this, Lin Chong was overjoyed and said, "Master Zhongshu wants to see senior brother?"
