Riding the Pheonix Chapter 323: Plan
After laying the foundation, all that's left is to wait for the building materials to be in place and build the house.
Master Hou was holding a bottle of wine and drinking happily in his room.
"Sir," a laborer shouted outside, "you guys are done, please show me if the job is right."
When Master Hou heard this voice, he raised his voice and said: "Come in."
The laborer came in and closed the door.
Although he was dressed differently, he was clearly the same person as the strong servant that night.
"Sir, you are living a comfortable life!" He lowered his voice with a hint of jealousy, "We have good wine and good food on hand. I will give you whatever you want."
Master Hou’s life was indeed a happy one. Ah Xuan said that the young master was not a stingy person, which was absolutely correct.
After making sure that he has real ability, the supervision work will be completely handed over to him. Food is the best, and he can choose whatever he wants. Just ask him and everything will be ready.
Jiang Hou even felt that life in the village was not such a good one.
After all, those bandits are lawless, how can they be so obedient? Not to mention the mood of life, these things. The people who come out of the Hou Mansion are just different...
However, when Master Hou saw Lao Li's expression, he knew what he was thinking. He touched his beard and poured him a glass of wine: "No matter how comfortable you are, how can you be as comfortable as your own master?"
With one sentence, the man's doubts were dispelled, and he smiled and said: "That's right."
He drank the wine in one gulp, smacked his mouth twice, and had endless aftertaste: "As expected of a noble man from the capital, we have never drunk such a good wine in our lives. There are so many of us, how can we drink this wine?" The only person I know is you, sir!"
After saying that, he immediately asked: "Sir, when are you going to take action? Our people have all sneaked in."
Master Hou frowned and said, "It's only been less than two months. It's too hasty to start now."
Dissatisfied with the labor force: "Is two months enough? When we planned the county government, we only had this little time, and there were not so many people."
Dajiang Hou said displeasedly: "Do you think it is easier here than the county government? Have you seen the generals brought by the young master? They come from a family of military generals. They are all highly skilled in martial arts and have strict discipline. If there is a real fight, hundreds of them may not be from other families. opponent."
Laoli said: "How can you, Sir, enhance the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige? No matter how powerful they are, they only have twenty or thirty people. What use can the remaining herdsmen and hard workers do? We can have hundreds of people, swarming up, Can't you subdue them?"
"This is really not necessarily the case!"
Lao Li felt unhappy: "Sir, don't you live your life too happily and don't want to take risks? You live a good life, but we brothers work hard every day."
This sentence is suspicious. Hou Dajiang was angry in his heart, but he knew that he had no force and had to rely on these people, so he softened his tone and said: "What are you talking about? Isn't it for the sake of reducing casualties for my brothers? At this time of wealth, if I lose my life , isn’t it a pity?”
"I hope that sir really thinks so." Lao Li took out the pot of wine and drank another glass. "Sir, your skills are rare. You will be able to successfully arrange a foolproof plan. We are waiting for your news."
He stood up, wiped his lips and said, "You can still have a taste of wine. I don't know what women can drink."
Master Hou felt something bad after hearing this, so he couldn't help but add another sentence: "Before you succeed, you must keep calm. I don't think the women here are easy to get along with, so don't cause trouble!"
"Got it!" Lao Li waved his hands a little impatiently, opened the door and went out.
Master Hou sat alone for a while and sighed.
This is the disadvantage of being controlled by others! No matter how clever he is, he has no choice but to be wary of others who have force at their disposal. When there is no conflict, treat him like a gentleman and be very polite. Once you are dissatisfied, you will fall out and stop recognizing others.
As a master who thinks highly of himself, the most worrying thing is probably not meeting a good master. If Jiang Taigong had never met King Wen and Kong Ming had not met Liu Bei, his name might not have been left in the history books at all.
Jiang Hou put these sentiments behind him, picked up the topographic map of the racecourse, and concentrated on thinking about the plan.
Robbers are robbers. Since they are here to remind you, it means they can no longer bear it. If you continue to suppress them forcefully, it will only make them more suspicious, which will lead to bad things in the future.
Forget it, we can only plan more carefully and find a way to transfer that Xuanshi away...
A plume of smoke flew into the main room and transformed into a small white snake.
"A robber is a robber. He can't help himself if he is provoked." Mingwei said. If Master Hou hears this, he will most likely regard her as a confidant.
Ah Wan across from me glanced at her and thought to herself, it’s weird that she can’t hold it back.
That great craftsman Hou will give you whatever you want, and he will only praise you to the sky. As for the bandits who sneaked in, they worked from morning to night, ate from a big pot of food, and could not drink or have sex. In addition to being paid a lot of wages, they were miserable.
For real laborers, high wages are their greatest comfort, but if robbers are satisfied with this, they will not become robbers.
In addition, the young master showed up a few times, and the extravagance and nobility that were not at all compatible with the small northwest county, didn't it make them dizzy?
"Miss~IndoMTL.com~eat the ice plate." Duofu brought a silver plate as if to present a treasure. The goat's milk crushed ice is covered with all kinds of fruits that are rare in the northwest, and there is a hint of coolness.
Ah Wan said sourly: "I started eating ice trays in May, and I'm not afraid of getting upset."
Duofu glanced at her and ignored her.
She has learned a trick to deal with Ah Wan, which is to act like she didn't hear anything she said, which will only make Ah Wan even more angry.
Sure enough, when Ah Wan saw that she was silent, she angrily grabbed the veil.
Yang Shu took a look and shouted: "Xiaotong, get two more ice trays, I want to eat too."
Xiaotong's response came from afar, and Ah Wan immediately became happy.
Yang Shu sighed in his heart and said: "I think he is very wary of senior brother, and is afraid that he will attack him."
Mingwei took a bite of crushed ice and said, "He should first find a way to transfer Mr. Wang away. If that doesn't work, then formulate a strategy to trap him. Mr. Hou is a very cautious person. He can feel that Mr. Xiang is a stronger person than him. There are many more profound scholars."
"Then let's transfer the senior brother away first to prevent him from making any more tricks."
Ming looked at him with a squinting smile: "Are you worried that your husband will accidentally be tricked by him?"
After her intentions were seen through, Yang Shu felt a little uncomfortable and said duplicity: "Why should I be worried about him? Isn't he very powerful?"
Mingwei didn't talk back to him and just said: "That's okay. A new caravan will come to Gaotang in a few days, so I'll ask you to go to the county seat."
Well, transfer the people away so that Master Hou can act with peace of mind.
It is estimated that he has also been very anxious in the past two months. Although he knew the magic, he did not dare to use it at all, for fear of being discovered.
As long as Ning Xiu leaves and he has the courage to do it, it will be easier to jump into the trap.
