The Founding of the Red Chamber

If it is not fate, if it is born in a prosperous age, Tu Xiaosan is definitely the kind of child who is the family's favorite to expand the territory. situation.

Because, as Tu Xiaosi said, even if Tu Xiaosan has a lot of money now, he still doesn’t prostitute, gamble, and love fancy clothes.Tu Xiaosan doesn't have the habit of enjoying extravagance at all. He is a person who is prepared for danger in times of peace. Even though he has some saving status now, what Tu Xiaosan thinks most about is gathering people and expanding business.

As the friendship between Lin Jing and Tu Xiaosan deepened, afterward analysis, Lin Jing found that it was inevitable based on Tu Xiaosan's temperament.When Tu Xiaosan was in the medicine business, he was jealous and squeezed out by his peers, so he was plotted against and suffered a disaster.At that time, if the apprentice's business hadn't been too good and outstanding, the family shouldn't have this difficulty.

It's the same now that it's difficult.

As for Xiaosan, he got up too fast.

Tu Xiaosan has a kind of unconscious hard work and prudence, which clearly distinguishes him from those nouveau riche who forget their names when they have a little money.Tu Xiaosan talked about this with Lin Jing, just like how Tu Xiaosi complained to Lin Jing, Tu Xiaosan went to Hanzhou City to talk about it with Lin Jing, saying, "It's really worrying, life is just getting better now , these guys, except for Xiao Niuzi who is safe, all of them are extremely light-boned. Let’s not talk about Xiaosi, I beat him once, I guess he can improve his memory. You also taught him, and he swore he would never Go to those places of fireworks. Blessed and rich, I have never been to a theater in eight lifetimes, and I have nothing to do all day long in the theater garden. I have money, I don’t know how to save it for the day to marry a wife, and TND rewarded the opera singers.”

Lin Jing smiled slightly, "When a person has money, he should enjoy it. Like you, third brother, how many of you are so dedicated when you have money?"

Tu Xiaosan said sternly, "What kind of money is this? It's nothing more than just a side job for drinking and eating meat. Xiao Si even urged me to buy a big house. Let me tell you, Xie Dujun had a very useful one at the time. The mansion on Zhengda Street in Jinzhou City is said to be a mansion with three sets of five-entry mansions. It is more prestigious than the Dujun Mansion, but the man died before I got the Dujun's important use. Liu Shoubei and the man He is a close friend, once, when Liu Shoubei got drunk, he didn't take precautions and said, "If it's not in the way of Du Jun's eyes", Ah Jing, tell me, does the matter of that person have something to do with Du Jun?" When Xiaosan talked about this, she was a little nervous, so she took half a cup of tea.

Lin Jing didn't take it seriously, and poured more tea for his apprentice, saying, "What's so strange about this, people who come from high positions are often suspicious. For example, the subordinates are extravagant and spend a lot of money, and the high-ranking people will doubt you. Are you ignoring Laozi’s money on weekdays, or, where did you get these gold and silver. It’s best, the subordinates are as busy as dogs, as loyal as dogs, and then, a piece of meat and bone can be dismissed.”

Tu Xiaosan whispered, "What I have left in my hand is not as good as a bone."

Lin Jing said, "If you work for others, it is natural that they eat meat and you drink soup."

Tu Xiaosan sighed, "I still need to recruit some more people. I'm not profitable here. If I don't expand the stall, it will be difficult to support the people here."

Lin Jing said, "Then you have to be careful, that Xie Dujun from Jinzhou is not big-hearted. Think about it, his subordinates just set up a big house, and pay attention to spending. If you say nothing, you will be gone." What do you mean by constantly recruiting people?"

"I'm here for business?"

"Third brother, this is your sincerity." Lin Jing said to him in detail, "A hundred households can only have a hundred people under their command. A thousand households can lead a thousand people. You, General Guangde, are at the same level as a hundred households. You can lead thousands of people. But in fact, it is common practice in the army to eat empty pay now. Which fifth-rank general really has a thousand people under his command? At most, it is no more than five hundred. There is a saying in the officialdom that there are rules and regulations, and no rules and laws. Others have only 500 people under their command, but you just recruited a thousand, you say, is it eye-catching."

Tu Xiaosan said, "Where they have five hundred under their command, two hundred is more than enough. The remaining eight hundred are empty."

Lin Jing's eyebrows twitched, "Then you still need to recruit people."

Tu Xiaosan said, "If you want to make your career bigger, how can no one do it?"

"You are so eye-catching."

Tu Xiaosan thought for a while, and knew how to be flexible, "Then I will come quietly."

Lin Jingdao, "I have dealt with Xie's family in the capital city. This family loves to use dark methods. You just came quietly, and all the people are recruited. You have to train and feed, and so on. People can never escape the eyes of others."

"Then what do you say?" Tu Xiaosan was a little anxious, and asked Lin Jing for advice.

The spring breeze blew, and apricot blossoms fell like rain. Lin Jing's voice was accompanied by the warmth of the spring breeze, and said, "It's not easy, you gather people first, and you also train in the dark. If you can't hide it, you have to try your best." Keep it secret. There is one thing, you have to be mentally prepared."

"what?"

"Get rid of the one named Xie!"

Only Xiaosan was shocked until he lost his color!

Tu Xiaosan has always regarded Lin Jing as both a brother and a military advisor. If he has any troubles, he will definitely find a solution from Lin Jing. This time, Tu Xiaosan thought, Ah Jing must have a clever plan.In the end, unexpectedly, Ah Jing gave him a thunderstorm!

Tu Xiaosan murmured, "How can this be done?"

"Why not?" Lin Jing said embarrassingly, he could be the general of Zhaowu in Wenhanzhou City, and he killed a lot of people.Basically, all the dissatisfied ones are slaughtered, and the rest will naturally be accepted.

Tu Xiaosan said, "The Dujun is still treating me well now, and there are more than ten thousand soldiers directly under the Dujun's command. I am not enough to give the Dujun a toothache."

Lin Jing said, "Let me ask you, you all killed the eye-catching guy in front, is it true that the real sword and gun are coming out?"

"That's not true. I heard that the man met bandits when he went out, and that's why he died." Tu Xiaosan still had some sincerity towards Xie Dujun. Hook, "That's it. After all, you belong to him, and he won't just send troops to kill you. Now, those who are used to black hands feel that it is cheap to use black hands, so they push bandit assassins afterward to save trouble. Just wait." , if you recruit more people, the surname Xie Fei will tell you to 'encounter' a bandit once."

"Then what's the matter?" Hearing what Lin Jing said, Tu Xiaosan couldn't sit still.Tu Xiaosan said, "If you want to leave me alone, I'm not afraid of anything, the big deal is my life, but there are Xiao Si, Xiao Niuzi, You Fu Fa Cai, they all followed me from their hometown."

Lin Jing stretched out two fingers like jade bones, and shook them in front of Tu Xiaosan, "Two ways."

Lin Jing was really spoiled by the rich and the rich. Those two fingers, even the shape of the nails, were not flawed in the slightest. Tu Xiaosan shook them in a strange way, and Lin Jing said, "The first way is, don't recruit people. , to be Xie Dujun's subordinate safely and securely. Although you are not profitable now, you can still support your subordinates. The second way is that you recruit people secretly. At the same time, you have to pay attention to Xie Dujun. You are by his side. There must be someone. This person, if the opponent strikes, there are often warning signs. For example, if you are particularly kind to you, you have to be alert. In the past, you must love your subordinates especially, not for others, but to clear the suspicion of the black hand. Therefore, if you don’t care about other people’s love, you will immediately accept it with peace of mind. Don’t forget to be on guard at all times, if one day you feel something is wrong, either you have to deal with him before he strikes first, or you can bring Xiaosi and the others to my place. No matter how long his hand is, he dare not reach out I’m coming from Hanzhou City.”

The reason why Tu Xiaosan was able to get Lin Jing to call him third brother was because of his innate temperament of preferring to bend rather than bend and to be indomitable.Tu Xiaosan knew that when he came to Hanzhou City, Ah Jing would not treat him outside, but that was not his temperament.It's not that he couldn't bear to lose face and defected to Lin Jing, he and Lin Jing were brothers, if something really happened, Lin Jing would naturally lend a hand to help.But before he tried Xie Dujun, he ran away first, it wasn't a man's job.Tu Xiaosan said seriously, "I remember what you said. If something happens, I will send someone to find you. However, I am able to have today, thanks to the support of Lord Dujun. I am always willing to start and end with Lord Dujun." .”

Lin Jing smiled, "It's all coming out, you should be younger."

Tu Xiaosan also smiled, thinking that Ah Jing was really sensitive.Although Xie Dujun supported him, but in terms of trust, he and Xie Dujun are just generals, but they have a life-threatening friendship with Lin Jing.Tu Xiaosan said, "This is only for you, Ah Jing. I know it well."
