This matter was told to them casually by a sick soldier, but the speaker was unintentional and the listener was intentional.
Lin Xu originally planned to recruit some retired veterans to suppress the bandits. He believed that with the quality of these veterans and the powerful force and equipment he provided, there would be no problem in wiping out the rabble on Xiaoyang Mountain!
However, it is easy to annihilate the bandits in the mountains, but it is difficult to annihilate the "bandits" in the city!
The so-called "bandits" in the city are naturally the magistrate who respects the bandits!
Of course, according to Lin Xu's plan, we can win the county magistrate by working steadily and step by step, but this will consume a lot of time and energy!
And now, he has a brand new plan!
If you can get the support of the governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, what's the point of cleaning up a small magistrate?
In fact, if it was just to deal with the county magistrate, there would be no need to go to great lengths.
But he knew clearly that in today's feudal era, the classes of scholars, farmers, industry and merchants were clearly hierarchical, and merchants were ranked last.
Even if a country is extremely wealthy, in the eyes of those in power, it is just an ant that can be easily crushed to death by stretching out a finger!
Shen Wansan, a wealthy businessman from the early Ming Dynasty in his previous life, is a typical example.
Therefore, while developing the industry, he must also consider this aspect carefully.
Although he had no intention of becoming an official in the court, he had to make arrangements at the top.
Living in the wave of the times, this is something we have to do.
Lin Xu has always been a decisive person. Once he makes up his mind, he will never be sloppy!
That same day, he gave Sun Chong a task...
...
About half a month later, Lin Xu was sitting in the shade of a tree reading a book when Gouwa hurried in.
Although Gouwa is not yet thirteen years old, he is very smart and agile. He can climb trees as fast as a monkey. He is also a good swimmer. He can hold his breath underwater for more than two minutes at a time. He is definitely gifted!
Originally, Gou Wa was spotted by Sun Chong and joined the escort team.
However, after Lin Xu came into contact with him several times, he became more and more fond of him and felt that he was a malleable talent, so he asked him to come over and be his book boy.
The person Gou Wa admires most now is Lin Xu, so naturally he is full of joy!
"Sir, a county official came to our village with three men riding tall horses and wearing black armor! They even asked to see you by name!"
Where had the country boy seen a man riding a big horse and wearing armor? He thought something had happened, and he was very anxious!
"finally come."
Lin Xu smiled slightly.
Soon, those people arrived at the door of Lin Xu's house.
This is the newly built brick house of Lin Xu's family. The door is large enough to accommodate three war horses entering side by side.
However, the three soldiers did not rush in on horseback. Instead, they dismounted and walked in.
Many people were also curious and followed. They didn't know what was going on, so they didn't dare to enter the yard and blocked the door.
After entering the yard, the county police chief got angry when he saw that Lin Xu didn't even get up. He looked at Lin Xu condescendingly and said in a very arrogant tone: "Are you Lin Xu?"
Lin Xu is a very polite person, but he is only polite to those who deserve his respect.
But this guy is obviously not.
"Who asked you to come?"
Lin Xu still sat there, glanced at them, and asked lightly.
"Let me ask you, are you Lin Xu?!"
When the catcher saw that Lin Xu didn't answer the question, he got very angry and shouted loudly!
"Shut up!"
The leading soldier finally spoke. He scolded the captor, raised his hand, and said loudly: "I am Yang Peng, the captain of the personal guard under Mr. Liu, the governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. May I ask, are you Mr. Lin Xulin?"
Since this soldier knew how to be polite, Lin Xu replied: "Yes, I am Lin Xu."
"I heard that Mr. Lin Xu knows wonderful medical skills and can cure the serious diseases suffered by retired soldiers in our army. Do you take it seriously?"
"I don't know any medical skills, and I can't treat serious diseases!"
Lin Xu said lightly.
"Mr. Lin, please come with us!" This chapter has been completed!
