"Today we have summoned all the heavenly kings and asked the village master to come here to discuss the future survival of our village, whether to gather or disperse." Xu Fu said with a solemn expression.
"Military advisor, our brothers all know about this matter. It should not be as serious as you said, right?"
"Yes, Butler, if the village is broken up, the old man will still have someone to take him in, but how will the hundreds of old people and children in the village live?"
"Yeah yeah!"
……
It was supposed to be a serious strategic meeting for Qingyun Village, but when Zhang Daozhao heard Xu Fu's serious words about "One King of Heaven", he almost couldn't hold back and coughed several times.
The kings also called Xu Fu variously, including military advisor and general manager, which made Zhang Dao wonder whether he had gone to the wrong place.
Hearing Zhang Dao's cough, the few people who were talking became quiet, and they all stared at Zhang Dao.
Zhang Dao asked doubtfully: "What are you looking at me for? Just listen to what the military advisor will say!"
Xu Fu didn't care, nodded slightly, and continued: "We all know that in our village, there are a group of people who can't survive, and they gather here to save their lives."
Several heavenly kings nodded in agreement.
"And for a village like ours, the main enemies are divided into two types. In addition to the government, they are people in the world, including colleagues."
Zhang Dao ignored it and continued to take care of the food on the table. Anyway, with the system in hand, he was not afraid of anyone.
The other ‘Kings of Heaven’ all listened attentively. After all, they thought they didn’t know as much as Xu Fu. But I can hear you looking at me and me looking at you, big eyes and small eyes.
Seeing this scene, Xu Fu had no choice but to continue explaining: "If the government is just hostile, it's okay. Because even if the government is robbed by our village, even if we send troops to attack, it won't be immediate. We have enough time to operate. to transfer."
"There is a saying that officials should deceive superiors and deceive subordinates. How many officials in the Song Dynasty were clean? Many of their shameful deeds were accomplished through forces like our Shanzhai. Because of the intricate interests of all parties, involve."
The other 'Heavenly Kings' became even more confused after hearing this. Zhang Dao covered his mouth and snickered. He noticed that Xu Fu was looking at him with an unkind look, and hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Commentary, please continue."
Xu Fu took a deep breath and resisted the urge to go berserk. Playing the piano to a cow is nothing more than that, right?
But he still suppressed his temper and continued to talk to several people: "King of Fortune, let me ask you, if you are a county magistrate and you lose a sum of money when you take office, and you also take a sum of money from the county government treasury, then what is the treasury? The court sent people to investigate because of the deficit, what should you do? "
"No, no, I can't be the county magistrate! No, no, no." Da Cai waved his hands repeatedly.
Xu Fu: "..."
"If, what I said is if!"
"I'm just a farmer, I really can't do anything! Also, military advisor, who are you talking about? I'm here to express my position. We only listen to the words of the village master and military advisor, not anyone else!"
Wang Dacai refused righteously with a confused look on his face, while the other two people solemnly agreed.
"Haha." Zhang Dao couldn't help laughing.
Xu Fu helplessly touched his forehead and sighed, "What a sin!"
Suddenly I heard Zhang Dao burst into laughter, and looked at Zhang Dao with a resentful look, "I think the leader of the village must have great opinions as the leader of my Qingyun Village. Please ask the leader to clear up the doubts of the kings."
Saying that, Xu Fu shook his head and sat back in his seat.
Zhang Dao was embarrassed when he was caught by Xu Fu.
Xin said that this old guy is quite small-minded, but he still smiled and nodded: "The military advisor does not mean to ask us to become some kind of county magistrate. Will that thing be as fun as us in the stockade? It's just a fight. For example, for example, everyone. Um, the kings must understand the meaning of the military counselor correctly. "
"What the military counselor means is that we and the government are all one family." Seeing that Xu Fu had already started to show off his rice, and then looked at the kings who were looking at him eagerly, Zhang Dao could only put down his chopsticks and continue to explain.
"A family? Damn! Our whole family was forced to live in a cottage by the government, and we are still a family!" Zhang Dazhuang spat and cursed.
"Not bad! I can't wait to peel off the skin of our county government official!"
"I can't wait to flatter those dog officials. The food provided for disaster relief and the silver for epidemic prevention were all embezzled by those dog officials!"
Zhang Dao rolled his eyes, he was still eating, who would have an appetite if you do this?
However, he could still understand their feelings and continued: "Our current identity is that of thieves. To ordinary people, the identity of mountain bandits may be a little fearful and disgusting. But to people in the government, it is a A very good identity.”
"What the military advisor just said, what if your county government treasury is in deficit? The bandits did it! Ten taels of silver were lost here, and he can report a hundred taels, one thousand taels, or even more! In this way , the treasury is not only at a loss, but they can also make a fortune from it!"
"Oh, so that's it!"
"Hmph! These bird officials are all frivolous, they will deceive us ordinary people, they are not good things!"
"That's right, we just want to live well, but they won't let us!"
…
"There are still good officials! They are just rare!" Xu Fu stopped being silent and sighed.
Zhang Dao glanced at Xu Fu with a profound look, and continued to say to the "Heavenly Kings": "Furthermore, in order to wipe out bandits like us, the government will train troops. Think about it, to train troops, you will naturally need money and food. Where will the money come from? ? Shouldn’t you ask the higher-ups for it? Needless to say, the gains will be made over the course of a few years.”
"That's why the military advisor just said that even if the government wants to annihilate us, there is a high probability that they will just shout slogans and won't actually take action."
"Oh, that's what it is!"
"I understand! This is what Kou Kou Kou Zhong is!"
"I understand too!"
"Then what did the military advisor mean just now?"
Zhang Dao almost fainted. With his understanding, he could still pay back the kings of heaven one by one?
He simply ignored them and continued to eat the rice in his bowl.
Several 'Heavenly Kings' stopped talking when they saw Zhang Dao eating, and all turned their curious eyes towards Xu Fu.
"It's about raising bandits to respect themselves!" Xu Fu reluctantly put down his bowl and chopsticks and continued to add: "The people in the government are most likely what the village leader said just now."
"Because of various interests involved and layers of relationships, they say they will attack us, but they may not actually send troops to destroy us. This is also the reason why our Qingyun Village has been able to exist at the feet of the Emperor in front of Kaifeng City over the years."
He sighed again, as if he was lamenting, "I think the reason why banditry in various states in the Song Dynasty is constantly suppressed is because of this reason!"
Several people nodded in understanding, but Zhang Dao looked at Xu Fu with complicated eyes. This man knows how to live!
From his words, Zhang Dao heard a hint of concern for the country and the people. He did not believe that Xu Fu would only be a poor scholar.
Could it be that this dog-headed military advisor is from the government?
Forget it, don’t think about that! Just know that he doesn't have any bad intentions towards the copycat village. If he had any bad intentions, Qingyun Village would be gone long ago. Besides, if he has any bad intentions, does he need to be afraid now?
"Because of this, the people in the government are not our biggest life-and-death enemies. As long as we have common interests and as long as they need us, we can still cooperate in some areas!" Xu Fu chuckled, as if he was mocking, and then said with a solemn face: "But , If you are a member of the Jianghu, you will be in big trouble!"
"People in the world of martial arts often believe in repaying grudges and repaying grudges. They only care about temporary pleasure and don't care about long-term relationships."
"If you offend someone in the martial arts world, if you cannot catch them all in one go and kill them all, then you will face endless unscrupulous revenge from the other party."
"Take our village as an example. If it gets into the eyes of people in the Jianghu, what our village will face in the future is the unscrupulous and unpreventable attacks from the people in the Jianghu."
"And I boldly speculate that most of the people from the Jianghu brought here by Ergou this time are because of..."
Having said this, Xu Fu paused and looked at Zhang Dao with a hint of complexity.
"What do you mean?" Zhang Dao, who was eating, put down his chopsticks and asked.
"What the military advisor means is that Li Ergou, the gang of gangsters captured by King Fujiu, might have come because of me?"
