One person cut down the rivers and lakes

Chapter 136
Five days later, Linzhong Mansion was still very lively, but the Jinfeng Building, the largest restaurant in Linzhong City, seemed very deserted.

It's not that there is no business in Jinfeng Tower today,
It was because the Golden Phoenix Tower was directly booked by Gu Mo, the inspector of the Linzhong Inspection Mansion, and Gu Mo's banquet was set on the third floor.

This Golden Phoenix Tower is owned by a local gang of some size. In order to please Gu Mo, the gang leader arranged the banquet in a very grand and high standard.

In the banquet hall,
There is a theme at the top,
There are a total of more than [-] seats under it, all of which are equipped with a chair and a table.

After noon,

One after another, people began to come to the Golden Phoenix Tower. They were all prominent figures in the Jianghu of Linzhongfu. It was not easy for everyone to travel. However, only the leaders came to the third floor.

Because there is a fixed time for the banquet,

Therefore, these people basically arrived at the same time period.

Gao Shanming, the Patriarch of the Gao Family of Linzhong Mansion, and Huo Qisheng of the Wild Wind Sword Sect were the last to enter. One was the head of the Linzhong Mansion family, and the other was the head of the Linzhong Mansion Jianghu gang, representing the entire Linzhong Jianghu.

After the two entered,

The hall is basically full, and only the main seat is still vacant.

However, Gu Mo didn't make them wait too long, and came in after him.

As soon as Gu Mo came in, Gao Shanming greeted him with a smile, cupped his hands and said, "Master Gu lives up to his reputation, he is really handsome, young and promising!"

Gu Mo smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, "Patriarch Gao is being polite, and I will have to ask Patriarch Gao for more advice in the future."

Gao Shanming quickly waved his hand and said: "Master Gu is just joking, the Gao family will have to rely on you to support us a lot in the future." After finishing speaking, Gao Shanming pointed to Huo Qisheng next to him, and said, "Master Gu, let me introduce you, this It's the head of Huo Fengjian sect, with the Huo family's swordsmanship, he is known as the number one master in the Linzhong Mansion!"

"This kind of false name is not worth mentioning in front of Mr. Gu. Mr. Gu is so young and his cultivation is so advanced, it really makes this old man ashamed!" Huo Qi said politely.

Gu Mo smiled, and said: "The name of Huo Daxia Baiyun Yijian is also like thunder, and I have admired it for a long time!"

After the two of them were courteous,
Gao Shanming began to introduce other responsible persons to Gu Mo. Without exception, they were all bigwigs who dominated Lin Zhongfu.

After everyone has said hello,
Gu Mo greeted the banquet,
Naturally, this banquet cannot be shabby. It is no exaggeration to say that the jade plate is ashamed and worth tens of thousands of dollars.

However, none of the people present were people who had never seen the world, and no one really came to the banquet. Therefore, the banquet was held, but no one moved their chopsticks.

The only one who was excited to eat was Gu Mo.

Everyone present was a little helpless,
However, no one took the initiative to speak first, and they all waited quietly.

Gu Mo also seemed to have forgotten that there were still people, and ate very happily. After a long time, he suddenly realized and said: "Oh, look at my brain, I have forgotten all the guests!"

You raised your glasses and said, "I'll punish myself first, what a neglect!"

After finishing speaking, Gu Mo gulped down his drink, and said with a smile: "I'm really sorry, everyone, alas, it's also my fault for being too busy with official duties. Look, it's already noon today, and I haven't even had breakfast yet. Eat, I'm already so hungry that my chest is sticking to my back, I'm getting carried away after eating this, and I'm ignoring all the guests, please Haihan!"

Gao Shanming smiled and said, "Mr. Gu, what is the matter? You are busy with official duties. It is inevitable. However, you are still young and the days are long. Don't be too tired. You have plenty of time to deal with official duties."

"Oh," Gu Mo sighed, and said, "That's what I said, but the reality doesn't allow it. Quite a few, but this officer is very busy."

As soon as Gu Mo said this,
Everyone present was slightly moved.
Knowing that Gu Mo is going to cut to the chase.

Gu Mo looked at the expressions of the people in the field with great interest, smiled slightly, and said, "Everyone, I invite you to come here today, not for anything else, but for the tedious official duties of this official."

As he said that, Gu Mo poured a glass of wine, and said slowly: "I know that you are all giants in the rivers and lakes, with great power, and this official is new here, and many places need to rely on you. I would like to invite you to meet today. Please do yourself a favor!"

After finishing speaking, Gu Mo picked up the wine and said, "This glass of wine is toast to all of you, please give me a way out!"

As soon as this is said,
Everyone stood up in shock.

Gao Shanming hurriedly said: "Why did Mr. Gu say that?"

Gu Mo drank half of the wine, slowly put down his glass, and said: "Today, Ming people don't speak secretly, and I don't like to hide it, so I just said it straight. I invite everyone to come today, just to talk about Lin Zhongfu. Since this official took over, the order of the Jianghu in Lin Zhongfu has been in a mess, everyone, this is embarrassing me!"

"Your Excellency, you are joking. There are countless people from all walks of life in Lin Zhongfu. This order cannot be determined by us!" Gao Shanming said with a light smile.

Gu Mo looked at Gao Shanming and said, "Let's be honest, I need you to restore the order that was strictly enforced before, you are all gangsters, so don't pretend to be confused.

You all did not do this before. When Yan Zha was in power, none of you drove up prices, and no one engaged in monopoly operations. But now that I am here, you start doing these things. Isn’t this embarrassing me? ? "

Gao Shanming clasped his hands and said, "Master Gu, since you've said all this, let me say a few words for everyone present!"

Gu Mo nodded and said, "Patriarch Gao, please tell me."

Gao Shanming said: "Our current practice is indeed different from before. That's because when the strict inspection was in place, we were exempted from all taxes, and a part of the money was withdrawn from the inspection office every month to make up for our losses.

But, now, after you take over, Mr. Gu, if you don't do anything, you just want to cut off our financial resources with a single sentence. I'm afraid it's not appropriate. We all have a lot of people to support! "

"puff"

Gu Mo suddenly sneered, then waved his hands again and again, and said, "I'm sorry, I can't help it, Master Gao, you continue to brag, I'm listening!"

Gao Shanming's expression changed, and he said displeasedly, "What does Mr. Gu mean by that?"

Gu Mo chuckled and said, "What do I mean, Patriarch Gao, don't you understand? Do you think I'm an idiot or Yan Zha is an idiot, he's an inspector, he doesn't ask you to collect taxes, but he gives you money instead? He Is it to accumulate virtue? Are you going to put this here and talk to me in your sleep today?"

Gao Shanming's face became gloomy, he flicked his sleeves, and said, "Since Mr. Gu meant this, then there is nothing more to talk about. Let me go!"

After all,

Gao Shanming turned around and left.

Gu Mo sat on the chair and said softly: "Before I finish half of my glass of wine, I want to see who dares to step out of this door!"
