Chapter 138 Ten times more dangerous than Yan Shifan
Li Chengliang's servants naturally followed the master's orders first. Hearing Li Chengliang's call, the four burly and vigorous servants immediately ran in from outside and looked at Li Rugui, who was covering his left face on the ground. The four servants were stunned for a moment, and then
They looked at each other and stepped forward without saying a word. The two people in front of them, one on the left and the other on the right, grabbed Li Rugui's arms and lifted them up easily. Then they lifted Li Rugui up with one another on both sides.
In fact, the genetics of the Li family in Tieling are good. Li Chengliang himself is more than eight feet tall, and Li Rugui is about the same, even a little stronger than Li Chengliang. Moreover, the Li family has not changed much at this time, and Li Rugui is not fat.
He was a serious man with tendons, but he was manipulated like a chicken by these two servants.
"Young nephew, I'm sorry." The servant on the left said to Li Rugui.
Li Rugui snorted in his nostrils, but did not struggle or resist - he knew that these four people were the uncle's personal bodyguards, real athletes selected from among the 40,000 servants, and he did not dare to say that Wan Fu was inappropriate.
He was very brave, but a dozen or so people would definitely not be able to get close to him. Li Jiajun privately called him the Four King Kongs.
If you resist in front of them, you are asking for trouble.
Li Rugui still hasn't figured out the reason why his uncle suddenly changed his face and became angry. His intuition may be related to Gao Bingxian, but he just didn't figure it out: Since the uncle asked me to treat Gao Bingxian as son-nephew, doesn't it mean that he and Gao Bingxian
Is the relationship so good that it just needs to be bowed? Since the relationship is so close, even if I owe a little courtesy this time, it’s not a big deal? Didn’t I say that I would apologize to Gao Bingxian after this battle?
He himself didn't understand, so he had no choice but to hope for reinforcements, so he turned his attention to the man standing behind Li Chengliang.
The man was about fifty years old, and he looked very similar to Li Chengliang, except that he lacked Li Chengliang's neatly groomed beard and only had a nearly straight beard on his lips.
This man is none other than Li Rugui’s biological father, Li Chengcai.
Li Chengcai is the second master of the Li family in Tieling, but he is not as good at fighting as brother Nai. His ability lies in taking care of logistics affairs. In addition to military logistics, he is also responsible for the management of the Li family's industry. He is a middle school member of the Li family in Tieling.
Xiao He is an ordinary person.
The Li family can achieve today's glory only because of Li Chengliang's ability to fight, but also because of Li Chengcai's ability to calculate. Without financial resources, they cannot support their family's most powerful team of servants.
Hmm... Of course, if we break it down, the person with the largest number of servants in the Ming Dynasty may be Gao Pragmatic. He must have at least more than 200,000 servants under his command.
It's just that unlike the Li family, 90% of the Gao family's servants are used as combatants. Less than 30% of the Gao family's servants are armed, and most of the 30% are not simply armed.
It exists in the name of servant.
For example, the cavalrymen of the Gao family are almost all merchant cavalry guards of Jinghua Trading Company in name; the foot soldiers of the Gao family are named various mine protection teams and factory protection teams; the boatmen of the Gao family are almost all in name.
He is an ordinary sailor of the Beijing and South Ocean Fleets...
This is also a pragmatic self-protection arrangement. Otherwise, when people hear this, they will think that you are pragmatic and not a governor. What do you want to do with tens of thousands of troops under your command?
What's more, no matter which border official or general's servants, including Li Chengliang, most of the money to support their servants is provided by the imperial court, which means that the imperial court can also use this to choke their necks and make them
The servant who didn't dare to mess around, but was very pragmatic... it was all his own money, and the court couldn't provide any means of restriction.
Under such circumstances, Gao Pragmatic naturally wanted to change the names of the armed servants under his command, at least not so blatantly as "raising private soldiers."
Li Rugui turned his attention to his father, naturally hoping that his father would help him, but Li Chengcai seemed not to see him, and there was no expression on his face.
However, Li Chengliang saw his wink and turned to look at his younger brother. Seeing that his younger brother's expression was as usual, his anger subsided and he nodded and said: "Chengcai, it seems that you know what it means to be a brother... Rugui is you after all.
My son, please come and tell him the truth behind this, so that he will not do it again in the future."
"Yes, brother." Li Chengcai still had that calm demeanor and said respectfully to Li Chengliang, cupping his fist.
Then, he said calmly to the four servants: "Let go first."
The four servants glanced at Li Chengliang, and when they saw that the elder did not express any reaction, they quickly let go of Li Rugui, bowed to Li Chengcai, and stepped aside, but they did not retreat.
Li Chengcai didn't care, and just started to teach his son a lesson, first asking: "You still don't know where you went wrong?"
Li Rugui took a peek at her uncle's expression and said honestly: "Dad, I really don't know." Then suddenly she felt blessed and added: "Please give me some advice, dad."
"Hmph..." Li Chengcai snorted, sighed, and said: "Ten years ago today, you were also a teenager. Although you were not asked to do anything, when your uncle was discussing matters, he probably
You will be asked to observe, haven't you heard of the word 'Xiao Ge Lao' at that time?"
Well……
Li Rugui was pounding in her heart and thought to herself: When I was a teenager? How could I care about this at that time? Who among the teenagers from Liaodong didn't like to play with girls and kill Tatars? What Xiaoge Lao? Is it Yan Shifan?
How many years has it been since that guy died?
Li Chengcai knew from his expression that this kid must not have listened carefully at that time, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. But now that the matter has come to this, looking back today, although Rugui is not good at other things, at least he still dares to fight and can fight.
It's not completely useless.
Besides, Rusong will definitely be in charge of the Li family in Tieling from now on. Rusong has an upright and rough temper, but he has a good relationship with Rugui. As long as Rugui follows Rusong well in the future, maybe a fool will be blessed...
...Forget it, I don’t want to think about it so much, let’s do what the elder brother tells me first.
"During the Shimiao period, Xiaoge Lao was Yan Shifan; and from the fourth year of Longqing in Mu Miao, to even the sixth year of Wanli today, the Xiaoge Lao in these eight years has been highly pragmatic."
Li Chengcai said calmly: "Yan Shifan is scheming and good at amassing money; Gao pragmatism is also scheming and good at amassing money. It seems that these two people are the same, but in fact, if we take a closer look, Gao pragmatism is more dangerous than Yan Shifan
Ten times, you know why?”
"Danger?" Li Rugui obviously didn't know and asked: "Why?"
