different devil life

"Grassman Su San, I want to meet the city lord."

The two stood at the door and said to the guard.

"Go, go, you little brats met the Lord City Master?" the guards drove away impatiently.

Wang Zhong stepped forward and said solemnly: "I have a way to solve the problem of bandits this time!"

"Do you have a solution?"

The guard stared.

Wang nodded emphatically: "Of course."

"Hahaha." The two guards laughed directly.

As soon as Wang Zhong sighed, he knew that the other party would not believe them at such a young age.

Unexpectedly, he could only use the old method before, throwing out two pieces of silver.

Seeing Yinzi, the two guards nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go and report, but I can't guarantee whether I can see you."

"Ah, then who knows if you have notified?" Su Xiaolan said with some dissatisfaction.

"What? You don't believe it?" the guard said with a cold snort. Now that he has taken the money, he has the initiative.

Su Xiaolan muttered, but did not dare to speak.

Wang Zhong was not angry, and said with a smile: "As long as you report, I can see the Lord City Lord, and I will give you two taels of silver."

"really!"

When the two guards heard this, they immediately laughed: "You wait."

With money to take, their speech suddenly sounds much better.

Soon, the guard came out and invited the two inside.

Su Xiaolan was very frightened, she followed behind Wang Zhong with her head down.

Seeing this scene, Wang Zhong sighed in his heart, this is also the reason why he must wait until he can transform into form.

Su Xiaolan is really immature, even if she tells her the method and asks her to come over, it may not be effective, so he waited until today to come over.

Wang Dasheng had seen a lot, so he acted very old-fashioned, and walked inside.

Followed the guards to the other courtyard, as soon as they arrived, there were already many people guarding the other courtyard.

These people are all counselors raised by the city lord.

Some big families in ancient times raised some counselors. Some of these counselors were strong in martial arts, some were good at stratagems, and some had special skills, such as piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, and poetry writing.

In short, as long as you have a special skill, if you are appreciated, you will be favored by some big shots and recruit you.

There were more than a dozen counselors present, all of whom were older than Wang.

The person sitting in the first place was an old man in his 50s. Although he was quite old, he was in good spirits. He said to everyone: "Everyone, so many of us have not discussed a solution to the banditry just now, so we might as well listen to it." What the two kids said."

The old man who spoke was none other than the city lord, Lu Bai.

This Lu Bai has been in power for many years. Not only is he the lord of the city, but their Lu family is also a well-known big family nearby.

Hearing Lu Bai's words, a long-bearded counselor stroked his beard and mocked: "What kind of ideas can these two brats have, I'm afraid they don't even know what a bandit is?"

Wang Zhong smiled at him and said: "At first glance, this elder brother is a dragon among men. Su San, a grassroots man, came here today just to discuss with the elder brothers. If there is anything wrong..."

Speaking of this, Wang Zhongchao said with a smile to the long-bearded adviser: "I also ask this elder brother to give me some pointers."

For Wang Zhong's words to this point, it is tantamount to giving face to the other party.

As the saying goes, you don't reach out and don't hit people with smiling faces. Wang Zhong is so polite, and the bearded counselor couldn't say anything more, so he nodded and said, "Let's talk about it."

Wang Zhong nodded slightly and began to speak.

Wang Zhong's suggestion is very simple, two words, report!

In the final analysis, the bandits this time are composed of villagers who can't survive. These people were originally farmers in some villages. Because of this year's snow disaster, they were displaced and desperate, so they couldn't become bandits. .

But in front of them, they discovered that being a bandit can really make a lot of money!And officers and soldiers have nothing to do with them!

Ever since, they simply went all the way to the dark.

Then the big bandits ate the little bandits, and the little bandits ate the little shrimps, and the bandits became more and more powerful!

Although it is easy for officers and soldiers to deal with these bandits, the bandits have adopted guerrilla warfare, which is very troublesome.

And Wang Zhong's method is to report.

These bandits were originally poor people, and most of them have family members in the countryside. As long as the news is released, all the bandits will go home within seven days, and the previous incidents will be forgotten. Otherwise, everyone will report. If the man is not at home, then the family members will be arrested. .

Some people may say, will these bandits bring their families to become bandits together!

The answer is impossible!

It's very simple, being a bandit doesn't have a fixed place to live. Maybe one day they live on this mountain, tomorrow they become ordinary people and go to the city, and the day after tomorrow they go to the official road to rob. With so many families, it's impossible for them to drag their families along.

So as long as there is a reward for reporting, many people will definitely report. At that time, these bandits will definitely worry about their family members, so they will abandon their secrets and turn to the bright, honestly farming at home.

This is the first way. After all, there are so many gangsters. Some gangsters are lucky, while others are single and fearless.

So after the implementation of the first method, there must be some bandits who will continue to be bandits.

At this time, the second method is needed.

That is, spies!

Find some people who are not gangsters, promise them some benefits, find the location of the previous gangsters, and once you find out the location, come back at night and report.

At that time, the soldiers will be divided into four groups, and they will be able to surround the bandits one by one, leaving no one behind!

This is Wang Zhong's two-step plan.

After hearing Wang Zhong's plan, the long-bearded counselor's expression changed from disdain at the beginning, to bewildered, and then to shock, the expression was incomparably wonderful!

Even he is like this, let alone the others, all suddenly realized!

"Snapped!"

The city lord, Lu Bai, slapped the table and asked Wang Zhong, "Su San, how old are you?"

"Report to the city lord, Cao Min is 20 years old."

Wang Zhong didn't know how old he was, so he said something casually.

"Okay, it's really a hero born a boy, your plan is very good, tell me, what reward do you want!"

When speaking, the city lord Lu Bai stared at Wang Zhong, and everyone else did the same.

Although many people think that Wang Zhong's plan is very good, most of them are jealous, thinking to themselves, this kind of country boy can come up with such a good idea, why?

After thinking about it, most people think that it is luck!

This is how people are. In the eyes of selfish people, no matter how capable they are, they are very unhappy. Once they feel this way, they will even play tricks on you behind your back!

This kind of person is called narrow-minded!

Chapter 528 Low-key is king

Wang Chong has been around for so many years, so he naturally knows the jealous eyes of these people.

So he decided to keep a low profile.

These days, keeping a low profile is king!

Although he is not afraid of a rat spirit, he is dragging Su Xiaolan, who is a oily bottle.

So he said: "Caomin and my sister are ordinary people. I think it is everyone's responsibility to eradicate violence, so I don't dare to ask for any rewards. It's just... Hey, Caomin's house was burned down by gangsters, and now he lives in an uncertain place. Therefore, the grass people just want to build another hut on the original site of their home.”

By saying this, it is tantamount to telling the counselors in the surrounding area, don't worry, after I have dealt with these bandits, I will return to my hometown and continue farming, and I will not hinder you in any way.

Sure enough, having said that, some counselors breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Zhong didn't intend to stay here, which means he didn't have the intention to compete with them for favor.

As a counselor, these people are actually competitive behind the scenes, because you have not contributed, and after a long time, the Lord City Lord thinks you are useless, so you are basically cold.

Lu Bai frowned, a little dissatisfied.

In his heart, he actually valued Wang Zhong a lot, and felt that this young man was so smart at such a young age, and his future achievements might be limitless.

It's just that he didn't expect that he had no ambitions and solved the banditry. He just wanted to go home and farm.

A bumpkin is a bumpkin!

Lu Bai complained in his heart, and said: "Well, this reward is not difficult. I will send craftsmen to your house to build a house later. By the way, why don't you build it in the county? Your one-acre three-point land, It's so out of the way."

Doesn't it mean that there is no spring water in the county?

Wang Zhong would not do this.

Wang Zhong shook his head and said, "We're used to it..."

"alright."

Lu Bai was thinking that I have already said that, since you still refuse, then forget it.

He nodded and said, "Now, let's discuss the next plan!"

A group of people began to discuss. Wang Zhong knew that his weight was still light, and it was not good to talk too much, so he was very smart and kept a low profile. He didn't talk much, because everyone was subdividing the plan.

If there is a place to be reminded, Wang Zhong will remind one or two, but in the end, he will still say that it is the other party's method, which gave him an idea.

In this way, everyone has face.

After discussing the plan, Lu Bai waved his hand and told the counselors to go down to prepare.

Just as Wang Chong was about to leave, Lu Bai stopped him.

"Is there anything else to do, my lord?" Wang Zhong calculated the time, his spiritual power was constantly being consumed, and he was about to turn into a mouse, so he had to leave quickly.

Lu Bai said with a smile: "You haven't taken the reward yet, you are in a hurry to leave, are you afraid that I won't give it?"

Wang Zhong said solemnly: "When I was outside, I heard that the city lord is highly respected. I think he is not that kind of person."

"Haha, you kid can talk!"

This inadvertent flattery made Lu Bai very comfortable, and he couldn't help but have a good impression of Wang Zhong.

Su Xiaolan behind her was also secretly surprised, this little mouse is too capable, right?Not only capable, but also speaking.

It's really unexpected that the city lord who just said a few words is so happy.

"Young man, do you really only want a reward for building a house for your family?" Lu Bai asked with a smile.

Wang nodded and said: "Well, we are used to being free in the countryside. Besides, the grassroots have no skills, and there is no way to make a living in the county..."

"Hey, you don't have to worry too much about this, I think you are very suitable to be my counselor here."

"My lord, I'm still young, and it's an accident that I can think of this method."

"Hehe, you are quite modest!"

Although Wang Zhong spoke very modestly, the more modest he was, the more optimistic Lu Bai was.

Maybe Wang Zhong has no big ambitions, but with this attitude, Lu Bai dare to say that if he really has any ambitions, his future may be limitless!

"My lord, I'm not humble. Besides, I'm really too young. If someone doesn't like me, I'm worried that I will also suffer."

"do not like you…………"

Lu Bai is old and sophisticated, although Wang Zhong didn't say it clearly, but thinking of the attitude of those counselors towards Wang Zhong before, he knew it clearly.

With a cold snort in his heart, he secretly thought that these counselors had stayed in the mansion for a long time, and it seemed that they regarded this place as his own home, and they actually wanted to form a clique for personal gain!

"My lord, but having said that, in fact, I just live in the countryside. If you need anything, Caomin will definitely help..."

"Well, it's fine with your words."

Lu Bai nodded in satisfaction, and continued: "However, you don't need to stay here, but before solving the banditry problem, you'd better stay in the inn specially arranged by me."

Wang Zhong thought for a while, there was no place to stay anyway, and the conditions in that inn were so poor that he would die, so he nodded in agreement!

"Thank you, Lord City Lord."
