Chapter 132 If I had known this, why should I be there?
"Yes."
After hearing Xu Liangan's puzzled voice, Liu Nirong first glanced at him curiously, then nodded gently.
"By the status and power of their fathers, they always ask for money from me, Yulong Gang."
Liu Nirong's face was full of fatigue, and there was a strong sense of resentment.
"It would be fine if it was like in the past. Although they were greedy, they at least knew how to be savage. Therefore, they would not be too much when they came to ask for money. But today they would be 10,000 taels of silver. Not to mention that I, Yulong Gang, had not been squeezed by them. Even if I, Yulong Gang, were sold directly today, I was afraid I would not be able to sell this price."
She was also extremely helpless.
In fact, the development of the Yulong Gang was quite good, but since the Dragon Slaying Technique began to spread throughout the world, especially when the entire Mingbeiliang area was promoted, the Zhong family and their minions were like hyenas that smelled something, and began to comprehensively increase the pressure on them.
In fact, Wang Dashi and she had discussed this matter before. After all, the Zhong family still had to do such a big deal at such a critical time, and it must be their own reasons.
The final conclusion the two people came to was that the Zhong family and the powerful people who were dependent on them were probably going to run away!
That's right!
Just run away!
If it is for this reason, then everything will be explained. The reason why I squeezed them like this during this period should be to make the last deal and then prepare to run away.
No one is blind!
Who hasn't known what the Zhong family has done in Lingzhou for so many years? Since the prince proposed the dragon-slaying technique, many people have speculated that the good days of the Zhong family will probably be over.
This is true. As the people from the academy began to enter the territory of Lingzhou, the people of the Zhong family continued to have various conflicts with them, and they seemed to be not obeying the discipline of Liangzhou at all.
Even a fool can think of it. How could the prince of Beiliang allow someone to fight against him like this?
This Zhong Hongwu wants to gain a self-respecting force? That is simply impossible! Who doesn’t know how powerful the Prince of Beiliang is? What is the difference between gaining a self-respecting force in front of him and seeking death?
Therefore, Liu Nirong, who has always been smart, has a bold guess in her heart, that is, the Zhong family is afraid that they will run away!
but……
When she thought of His Royal Highness Prince of Beiliang, Liu Nirong felt that she seemed to have missed something. She almost subconsciously turned her eyes on Xu Liangan. Although she didn't know who the extremely handsome man in front of her was, she seemed to be so close to Feng Nian, and she was so close in appearance...
A bold guess appeared in Liu Nirong's heart.
“No…”
As if she understood the meaning of inquiry in her eyes, Xu Liangan smiled and said to her: "Hello Miss Liu, I am Feng Nian's brother, Xu Liangan."
"hiss……"
Almost subconsciously took a breath of cold air. Liu Nirong didn't expect that the handsome man in front of her was actually the current Prince of Beiliang.
"Caomin Liu..."
Liu Nirong, who was just about to salute Xu Liangan, felt a soft and extremely aura holding her body that she wanted to bow down.
"No need to be polite. Feng Nian's friends are my friends, and friends don't need this."
Before Liu Nirong could say anything more, Xu Liangan turned to Xu Fengnian and said, "You go and beat all the yamen in the yamen and throw them out. Whoever's second-generation ancestor will let someone come from the head, otherwise they will not let anyone go."
This sentence is easy to write.
Xu Fengnian naturally had no objection to his elder brother's approach. He grinned at Xu Liang'an, revealing two rows of extremely white teeth: "Don't worry, I'll make sure that they all feel the feeling of lying flat~"
After saying that, he nodded to Liu Nirong for a moment, and then the two walked directly towards the back hall.
Xu Liang'an and the other two continued to stand in the front hall and wait.
Not long.
Xu Fengnian's figure reappeared in the sight of several people, but the difference was that this time, in addition to Liu Nirong, he was also surrounded by a strong man, Wang Dashi.
And behind them.
Two young men in long brocade dresses were dragged out like dead dogs by the Yulong Gang, and several other men in uniforms of the yamen runners were also interrupted.
"Brother Wang, this is my brother and my sister-in-law. This is old wine. In addition, these two little guys are the daughters and apprentices of a friend of my brother."
As soon as he arrived in front of the five people, Xu Fengnian enthusiastically introduced Xu Liang'an and some of them to Wang Dashi.
After hearing his words, Wang Dashi immediately looked respectful on his face, and Liu Nirong had an expression that was indeed the case.
"Caomin..."
Wang Dashi was about to worship, but Xu Liangan was held up by Xu.
A helpless expression appeared on his face at first, and then Xu Liangan slowly spoke, "Why do you all like this? Since you are Feng Nian's friends, I am just Feng Nian's brother, so there is no need to be polite."
Wang Dashi was originally a very generous person, otherwise he would not have had a relationship with Xu Fengnian. After hearing Xu Liang'an's words, he also smiled and said, "Then let's fight!"
Xu Liangan nodded slightly.
He had a very good impression of Wang Dashi and Liu Nirong. In addition, they had a relationship with Feng Nian, so it would be best to make friends with peers!
"Come on, let's go in and talk!"
Wang Dashi made an invitation and led Xu Liang'an and the other two to the inner hall. As for the people dragged on the ground who had already been unconscious by Xu Fengnian, he didn't even look at it.
Wang Dashi was able to walk to this day with the Yulong Gang. Although there is nothing worth mentioning about his reputation in terms of power, he naturally cannot be a fool!
Now that the prince has already come to Longqing County, it probably means that Zhong Hongwu's family is probably not having a good life! And when he came out just now, Xu Fengnian specially reminded him that the fundamental reason for coming to Lingzhou this time was to solve Zhong Hongwu. Wang Dashi naturally would not show mercy to these yamen and yamen runners who had long wanted to cut down.
"Remember, it's not the biggest person in their family who comes, and no one can take them away."
Before taking a step, Xu Liangan said to the two strong men from the Yaye-Dragon Gang who were dragging the two yamen. A look of hesitation appeared on the latter's face, but then he was slapped on the head by Wang Dashi and scolded him with a smile: "Bastard! Mr. Xu's words are not better than mine, so why don't you do it quickly!"
"Why!"
The strong man responded, then grinned and dragged the two young men out.
...
"Recently, it's getting worse?"
After hearing what Wang Dashi told about recently happening in Longqing County and the Yulong Gang, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It seems that Zhong Hongwu's greed is much greater than he imagined. At this time, he can't forget to plunder his final interests."
Xu Fengnian also understood that the reason why Zhong Hongwu asked the people below to do this was simply to take advantage of the fact that he was still a person in Lingzhou and wanted to make more profits in the end. Although he knew that Zhong Hongwu was a person who was greedy for profit when he heard his elder brother talk about it before, he did not expect that the other party had reached this point!
He subconsciously turned his gaze to Xu Liangan, who was just listening silently. The latter immediately smiled and said, "Originally, it was very simple to solve a scum like Zhong Hongwu, and even to old wine, because his death would not have any worse effects on Lingzhou. But I still brought you here, do you know why?"
"Because you're lazy!"
Xu Fengnian almost blurted out this sentence, but he chose to shut up rationally.
Although Xu Liangan looks very kind now, Xu Fengnian said that he will never forget the fear of being dominated by his brother when he was a child. Because his mother left early, his eldest sister married far away, and his second sister went to the school, Xu Xiao didn't care much about him at all, so the important task of educating him fell on Xu Liangan, the eldest brother.
Ruler, whip...
He had basically experienced all kinds of teaching aids used by teachers to punish students when he was young, so he has no idea of committing suicide at all.
After a little bit of my brain, I said half-jokingly: "It's impossible to let me take over, right?"
"Bang!"
As soon as Xu Fengnian's voice fell, a crisp sound came from the air. Just as everyone was puzzled, they saw Xu Fengnian squatting on the ground with his head covered.
"I think you're floating."
Xu Liangan still had that kind of light look.
"Although your strength has been greatly improved with the travels of Old Sword God Li, your mind cannot bear anything."
Xu Liangan did not shy away from the fact that there were outsiders present here.
Without seeing him move, the steaming teacup on the table automatically floated in front of him, reached out to pinch the teacup gently, and took a sip.
"I've told you many times before, never look at the surface of things."
"I ask you, what is the biggest reliance of Zhong Hongwu?"
"The biggest reliance?"
At this time, Xu Fengnian had returned to his seat and sat down. When he heard another question from Xu Liangan, he finally started to think seriously.
If we understand it according to normal circumstances, Zhong Hongwu's biggest reliance must be the Northern Liang cavalry in his hands. After all, Lingzhou is located in the southernmost part of the entire Northern Liang, only next to the Western Regions and Liyang, so the cavalry deployment has always been strong.
But I don’t know if it was because I was just educated again, but Xu Fengnian always felt that the answer to this question was not that simple.
Then he suddenly felt his inspiration appear.
"Relationship! Relationship Network!"
"For so many years, my father has basically been in a state of stocking in Lingzhou and has never interfered in the specific management of Lingzhou. So if Zhong Hongwu relies on the biggest reliance, it is his free network of relationships that have been operating for many years!"
After hearing his answer, Xu Liangan nodded with satisfaction.
"Yes, it's not true. It's not that appropriate to say that the relationship network is actually his power network. Relationships have both upper and lower levels and equality, but in the power network, Zhong Hongwu is the absolute core and absolute peak, and no one can compare with him."
"This is the most important thing for Zhong Hongwu. Do you think he would give up these so easily?"
"Of course not."
