Chapter 179: Encourage people to be generous (please vote for me!)
Zhang Youyu still had some brains when he was not having a seizure. He sighed and said:
"I wonder who will come to you first. Not everyone is as aloof and mindless as our Zhang family."
Before he finished speaking, the disciple came to report: "Mr. Zhang Lingxu is here!"
Zhang Youyu: "."
The old man from Lingxu is Zhang Fengyi, Zhang Youyu’s eldest brother.
This had to be seen, so Lin Tailai went to the National Accounting Department to meet the guests.
Originally, Officer Lin was still wondering who asked Zhang Fengyi to be the lobbyist, but when he saw Wang Yusheng next to Zhang Fengyi, he understood.
The Dongshan Wang family is also a giant family in the Dongting Merchant Gang, and is half Confucian and half businessman. It also has a bachelor, who is more senior than other giants such as the Xi family and the Lu family.
Lin Tailai destroyed the Xi family and the Lu family, and it was normal for them to ask the Wang family to come forward to bring peace.
Official Lin invited everyone to take their seats, and then said to Wang Yusheng:
"Although you are not convinced by me as the leader of the case, after all, we are still friends with each other.
If you need anything, just come directly, why bother bringing an old gentleman from Lingxu with you!"
The young and vigorous Wang Yusheng only wanted to achieve success in the imperial examination, and his ambition was to recreate the glory of his great-grandfather Wang Yao. He had no interest in other trivial matters.
But last night Wang Yusheng was called back by his father Wang Youren overnight. Wang Youren, who was still at home, told him to leave the aftermath to Wang Yusheng as a training for him.
But young Wang Yusheng couldn't help but look down, so he wandered around and found Mr. Zhang Fengyi.
Zhang Fengyi couldn't help but said a few words of help, but Lin Tailai just grumbled and refused to give accurate words.
Wang Yusheng, who had little experience, became impatient and anxiously said to Lin Tai:
"We are all fellow villagers connected by mountains and rivers. You have completely gained the upper hand. Why not be a more generous person."
Lin Tailai asked Zhang Fengyi: "What do you think, Mr. Wang Yusheng, of Wang Yusheng's words?"
Zhang Fengyi said helplessly: "It's not unreasonable."
Official Lin immediately changed his expression, snorted coldly, and walked away.
Zhang Fengyi was confused and didn't know what was going on.
Zhang Youyu sighed to Zhang Fengyi: "Although my eldest brother is known to be good at dancing, he can't see Lin Tailai as clearly as I do!"
Zhang Fengyi said angrily: "How can you see clearly with your crazy eyes!"
Zhang Youyu couldn't explain clearly. Only someone who has been wallowing in the quagmire of the bottom, or someone like him who has despaired of progress, can understand where Lin Tailai's sensitive points lie.
Zhang Youyu pointed to Wang Yu and said, "And since the Wang family wants to take charge of the aftermath, why only let a young man in his early twenties do the talking?
You don’t show any sincerity at all, and you first persuade people to be generous. Who are you looking down on from your superiors?”
Zhang Fengyi understood this, but he had tried his best.
Even if they returned to the inner courtyard, Official Lin was destined not to be quiet. Not long after, the Second Master of the Shen Mansion sent someone to summon him again.
You don't need to think about it to know that the Xu family and the Shen family in Huqiu have a special relationship, similar to relatives.
Second Master Shen is also very familiar with Fan Yunlin. He invited him over, it must be for Fan Yunlin, the Xu family's adopted son-in-law.
So Official Lin went out and entered the city to Shen Mansion.
Shen Yongjia said straight to the point: "Fan Yunlin's wife, Mrs. Xu, came to me to plead for mercy and cried for a long time."
Lin Tailai asked back: "What do you mean, Second Master?"
Shen Yongjia then advised: "You might as well be more generous and don't embarrass Fan Yunlin too much."
Hearing the word magnanimity again, Lin Tailai said coldly:
"Fan Yunlin not only brought thugs to my territory to kill and rob me of my property, but his nature was extremely bad.
Moreover, he personally coerced and induced my woman to marry someone else. Second Master, how do you think I should be magnanimous?"
Shen Yongjia said disapprovingly: "What is an outsider woman? Is she worthy of your attention?"
Lin Tailai said dissatisfiedly: "That is to say, the matter did not fall on you, so you were in the mood to make sarcastic remarks."
Shen Yongjia said disdainfully: "What sarcastic words? As long as you choose the concubine in my house who is not pregnant, I will give it to you for free! See if I care or not!"
Lin Tailai: "."
Compared with this kind of scum who only treats women as fertility machines, their thinking is completely different.
Shen Yongjia added: "I told you, Fan Yunlin is the housekeeper's son-in-law of Master Xu Jiatai after all!
And Mr. Taishi is now an official in the capital! I want you to be generous, what's the problem?"
Lin Tailai laughed a few times and said, "Why do you want to persuade me to be generous? The look of you people reminds me of a sentence in the Book of Rites."
Shen Yongjia asked in confusion: "Which sentence?"
Lin Tailai replied: "The punishment is not as good as that of a doctor, and the courtesy is not as good as that of a common man!"
Shen Yongjia didn't understand for a while, then heard Lin Tailai continue:
"It was someone who tried to frame me, it was my territory that was attacked, it was my property that was set on fire, it was my people that were attacked, and it was my woman that was coveted by others!
Why do you think that I am only worthy of being generous? Is this a sign of not being courteous to common people?
They committed evil first and were stupid enough to lose the fight, but why should I still take the initiative to be generous? Does this mean that the punishment is not good enough for a doctor?"
"That's not what I meant!" Shen Yongjia said, but feeling a little weak, he added: "Then what do you want!"
"It's not what I want, it's what they want!" Lin Tailai stood up and left without thinking.
Before leaving, he left another message: "I can give you something like generosity, but they can't take it!"
Shen Yongjia secretly cursed a few words, why does Lin Tailai always say such inexplicable domineering words?
After that, the Battle of Xujiang continued to ferment and continued to arouse heated discussions throughout the city. After all, this was a rare private battle in Suzhou City and its surrounding areas.
The total force mobilized urgently by both sides exceeded one thousand, and the battle line spread for twenty miles.
And the Suzhou Guard's current emergency troop strength is probably not enough to gather only one or two thousand.
Two days later, another big event happened on Nanhao Street and Shangtang Street outside the city!
That day, more than 40 businesses were set on fire almost simultaneously, causing a sensation in the entire commercial district outside the city.
Although the fire was put out effectively because it was broad daylight, the fire did not spread, and the damage was controllable, it was still scary.
Later, people who were interested discovered that the owners of these merchants were all Dongting businessmen, and the arson was obviously very targeted.
So people began to speculate whether it was Lin Tai who did it.
Another day later, dozens of businessmen gathered at the Dongting Hall outside the city to discuss matters.
Lin Tailai, the best hero in Suzhou City who had not taken action directly for a long time, personally led Gao Changjiang and more than a hundred people and suddenly rushed into the Dongting Guild Hall.
After being beaten and smashed repeatedly, more than a hundred wounded people were left behind before they fled away. Among them, Gao Changjiang had five of his legs broken.
In addition, Lin Daguan also left eight words on the door of the guild hall: "To persuade people to be generous, the sky will strike with thunder."
Now there is no need to guess, it is basically confirmed, the instigator of yesterday’s arson incident must also be Lin Daguan!
All the neighborhoods outside the city are going crazy, and so are all the government offices!
If the fight continues like this, the peaceful and peaceful Suzhou City may be in chaos!
Lin Daguan explained with practical actions what lawlessness means and what tit for tat means.
The eldest grandson of Wang Hao, Wang Youren, the old lady of the Xi family, the host of the Xu family, Feng Feng, governor Wei's staff, government officials, and magistrate Deng of Wu County all went to the Shen Mansion as guests.
Shen Yongjia, who was only in his twenties, felt pressure like never before.
Even if he went to Zhejiang Province to cheat on the exam three years ago, the pressure would not be so great!
He mainly didn't understand why these people thought they could control Lin Tailai?
When did Lin Tailai ever listen to him when it came to trivial matters that violated laws and regulations?
Mr. Shen really couldn't stay at home any longer. He took the initiative to come to Genxin Academy, only to find that the house was already empty.
The originally bustling Renewal Academy was now empty, with everyone missing.
Second Master Shen came to the Wulong Tea House in the alley again and asked shopkeeper Feng: "What is going on?"
Shopkeeper Feng replied: "They said they were temporarily shrinking the front line, abandoning the Nanhao Street stronghold, and all personnel went to Mudu Town."
Mr. Shen was stunned. In his entire life, this was the first time he heard that the expansionist Lin Tailai actually carried out strategic contraction. This was really a long time in his life.
If Lin's society has only a small number of people in Mudu Town, it will be like a solid iron ball. Who else can hit it?
But what I can't understand is why Lin Tailai did this? Now that he has the upper hand, there is no need to shrink strategically.
Thinking of this, Mr. Shen hurriedly asked again: "I'm asking about Lin Tailai! Where are the others?"
Shopkeeper Feng also answered clearly: "Master Lin said he was going to Nanjing to take the exam!"
Shen Yongjia didn't react for a while and said angrily: "It is true that the Nanzhili Township Examination is about to start, but what does it have to do with him!"
Shopkeeper Feng also thought it was ridiculous, and replied: "The official Lin is talking about the Wuxiang Examination. Isn't the time just after the Wenxiang Examination?"
Shen Yongjia: "."
Damn it, I almost forgot that Lin Tailai is a martial arts member, what kind of hell is this!
Now I suddenly understood why Lin Tailai carried out strategic contraction.
After all, his backbone is not in Suzhou during this period, so if the front is too long, it may still be divided and defeated.
If the main force is concentrated in Mudu Town, it will be difficult for others to defeat it.
But Lin Tailai waved his hand and left, so what should we do with the rest of the matter here?
After thinking about it, Shen Yongjia had to ask again: "What other words did Lin Tailai leave behind? You can't just leave without saying a word, right?"
Shopkeeper Feng hesitated for a long time before answering in a tangled tone:
"Lin Daguanren's original words were that others can do whatever they want. Anyway, he is not in a hurry. He will wait until he comes back from Nanjing!"
Shen Yongjia was speechless. You, Lin Tailai, are not in a hurry, but others are!
You put people and prisoners in jail, you block waterways, and you burn down shops and beat up mansions when you have nothing to do. How do others live their lives?
When thinking of this, Shen Yongjia suddenly realized that those who wanted to deal with the aftermath seemed to have made a cognitive mistake!
In fact, the initiative has always been in Lin Tailai's hands, and those who dealt with the aftermath were used to being aloof and subconsciously ignored this!
