Last night, there was war in Changling County, and today it was still windy and snowy, boundless, and cold. In Gu Qingci's courtyard, someone stood motionless in the snow and had become a snowman.

Pang Shilong walked to the snowman and said, "Ran Deng, let's go, sir, I want to see you!"

This snowman is the master of Feiying Fufeng Hall. In just one night, he fell from the clouds to the ground.

Before, as a second-rate warrior, the master of the Feiying Gang, in Changling County, who dared not give him some face? Even the county magistrate Pang Shilong had to smile in front of him and shout "Lord Ran" to "Lord Ran" in front of him, but after the battle last night, he had nothing left.

Now, in order to survive, he was trembling with cold in Gu Qingci's courtyard, and he did not dare to complain, because he was afraid of death. Last night, he saw the people from the Feiying Gang die one by one in front of him, especially the two hall masters who were unwilling to surrender, and he was really afraid.

When he was young, Ran Deng was also a person who dared to fight and fight, but later as he got older and had a family, he became more and more timid. Gradually, he did not participate in the gang's struggle for power and profit. If others wanted it, he would give it to him.

In fact, Ran Deng didn't know that it was because of his cowardice that he had a glimmer of hope now, because Gu Qingci needed a coward now.

Following Pang Shilong into the house, Ran Deng immediately knelt down and said, "Caomin Ran Deng, see the county master!"

Gu Qingci held the iron elm and poked the charcoal, without raising his head, and said, "Do you want to die or live?"

"I want to live, I want to live, sir, villain wants to live!" Ran Deng said hurriedly.

Gu Qingci glanced at Ran Deng and nodded with satisfaction. To be honest, he looked down on Ran Deng, who was greedy for life and fearful of death, and even traitorous. However, he needed such a person now.

"Then get up and talk!"

"Thank you sir!"

Gu Qingci asked someone to carry a stool to Ran Deng.

Ran Deng was a little restrained and sat opposite Gu Qingci tremblingly. He looked very rich and didn't look like a gang-in-law, but more like a landlord Laocai in the countryside.

Gu Qingci said lightly: "I heard that two days ago, your first grandson was born. How about it? Three generations live together. The joy of family is very good, right?"

Gu Qingci's tone was very plain, just like the usual common people talked about home, but it was like a bolt from the blue when it fell into Ran Deng's ears. He suddenly turned pale and knelt on the ground, saying, "Mr. County Master, you can do anything. The villain begs you to let my family go!"

Gu Qingci rolled his eyes and said, "Get up, don't kneel down to me at any time, this is about to lose your life."

"Yes, yes, sir!" Ran Deng stood up again.

Gu Qingci then said, "Don't worry, if I want to touch your family, I will not save your life. However, as for whether you can protect your family, it depends on your performance."

"Sir, please give me instructions!" Ran Deng said hurriedly.

Gu Qingci gently knocked on the table and said, "Now the Feiying Gang has been crippled, and the Cheng and Li families have been destroyed. There is a gap in the underground forces in Changling County. I want you to integrate the remaining Feiying Gang. Do you understand what I mean?"

Ran Deng nodded quickly and said, "Don't worry, although the Feiying Gang is almost over, my Fufeng Hall has basically not been damaged. As long as the adults support him, the villain can be able to have the entire underground forces in Changling County for up to three days."

Gu Qingci nodded and expressed his satisfaction. Although Ran Deng looked very cowardly, he knew that the lives of the whole family were held in Gu Qingci's hand and had to surrender. However, he was a person who could be the master of the Feiying Gang for so many years, so his methods were naturally not bad.

Gu Qingci had already set his sights on Ran Deng a long time ago because this person was famously cowardly, but he had always been able to sit firmly on Diaoyutai. He had methods but was easy to control.

During the melee last night, Ran Deng was afraid of death and kept hiding with the people from Fufengtang. The loss was indeed not great, but he was not lucky and was targeted by Gu Qingci, so he was unable to escape.

The reason why Gu Qingci wanted to control Ran Deng was specifically used to control Changling County. This is the case in this world, with black and white. Instead of letting him develop himself, and another Flying Eagle Gang appeared in a few years, it would be better to directly take these forces into his hands.

After all, Gu Qingci also needs money, and there are many things on the official side that are inconvenient, so you can only use other means. At this time, Ran Deng's role will come out.

"Don't use the name Feiying Gang in the future, it's called Fufengtang. As for the territory of Cheng and Li families, don't get involved. I'm useful for those things." Gu Qingci said.

"Yes, sir, I understand!" Ran Deng said hurriedly. Whether he understood or not, he would do it according to Gu Qingci's wishes.

Gu Qingci nodded and said, "By the way, do you need me to give you a man in integrating the Feiying Gang?"

Ran Deng was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized that Gu Qingci was not really going to send an assistant to him, but to find someone to supervise him. After figuring this out, he immediately said, "If you send someone to help me, it would be even better!"

Gu Qingci smiled slightly, Ran Deng was indeed very cognitive.

"Shi Lian," Gu Qingci looked at Ma Shi Lian and said, "You go to the county government to bring the three hundred servants to disguise yourself, and go to the Feiying Gang with Lord Ran, and obey Lord Ran's instructions."

"Yes, sir!" Ma Shilian immediately stood up and bowed.

He naturally understood what Gu Qingci meant and asked him to take people to the Feiying Gang, not only to monitor Ran Deng, but also to let people get involved in the Feiying Gang and slowly and completely control the Feiying Gang.

Ran Deng naturally understood what Gu Qingci meant, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he smiled and took Ma Shilian to the Feiying Gang, because he knew that the less power he had, the more reassured Gu Qingci was about him.

Seeing Ma Shilian and Ran Deng leave, Pang Shilong wondered: "Sir, why didn't you let Ran Deng swallow the territory of Cheng and Li families? Isn't this all in our hands?"

Gu Qingci smiled and said, "Old Pang, you have to remember that we are still officials after all. If we look at it for a long time, the destruction of the Cheng and Li families will definitely give other small families in Changling County a chance to rise. Only in this way can Changling County be active."

Gu Qingci didn't say anything about it. He wanted to support Hongxiuzhao, but he was not at ease with Hongxiuzhao because Hongxiuzhao's current power is the largest in Changling County, so he had to mobilize other small families in Changling County so that he could cooperate with Fufengtang to check and balance Hongxiuzhao, so as not to dominate Hongxiuzhao.

As for Qingyi, he would not explain, because Qingyi is a smart person. As long as Hongxiuzhao really has no other purpose, she will definitely not blame Gu Qingci. On the contrary, it was when her alliance with Gu Qingci broke up!
