Yang Qiyi stepped on the stool, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and his eyes looked at Lin Haoran and threatened: "You dare to grab something from the master, you really don't know whether you live or die!" ”

"And what do you want to do?" Lin Haoran raised his hand to stop the iron pillar and asked lightly in the face of his gaze.

Hu Niu's brows frowned slightly, and she glanced up at Yang Qi, but she didn't say anything. Now, she also understands that the person who can bully her brother may not be born yet.

Yang Qi glanced at Tie Zhu disdainfully, and then looked at Lin Haoran and put forward a condition: "As long as you pay me thirty taels of silver, I can act as if nothing happened!" ”

Lin Haoran smiled, daring to love this person was treating him as a fat sheep, and he wanted to blackmail him for money by using the topic, so he said in a good time: "You said that you are a member of the Red Flag Gang, but what evidence do you have?" It can't be a deception, right? ”

Yang Qi thought that the other party would either resist stubbornly or kneel down and beg for mercy, but he didn't expect to question his identity, but he only hesitated for a while, then pointed at the person behind him and said loudly: "I, Yang Qi, have never slandered people!" Ask everyone, who doesn't know that I'm a member of the Red Flag Gang? ”

Lin Haoran glanced at the crowd of onlookers, but said unmoved: "As far as I know, the people of the Red Flag Gang will tattoo a green snake on their arm, but I don't know if you have it or not?" ”

"Of course I have this, Master will open your eyes today!" Yang Qi proudly pulled up his sleeves, revealing the tattoo on his arm, which was a snake-shaped pattern.

He thought in his heart that this time he should be able to convince the other party, so he obediently sent him money, but his pride did not last long.

Because he was suddenly surprised to find that an official messenger had quietly surrounded them. They looked at him gloomily, like tigers looking at their prey.

Yang Qi turned his head to look at the young man again, his heart was furious, and he faintly felt that he had provoked a great person.

Lin Haoran's gaze withdrew from the tattoo pattern, and he gave an order in a deep voice: "Escort them back to the yamen!" He didn't intend to let go of this self-imposed Red Flag Gang.

"Yes!"

The iron catcher replied loudly, and then looked at Yang Qi viciously. Not to mention that this person dared to bully Lord Fuzun, just because he was a bandit of the Red Flag Gang, it was impossible to let him go.

Yang Qi did not intend to sit still, and immediately fled towards the west. No matter where this young man is, he must flee from here, and he must not fall into the hands of officials.

Ah!

A sturdy official flashed out and kicked Yang Qi to the ground with a heavy kick.

Thanks to Lin Haoran's generous treatment of the yacha, and the standard of "the capable go up and the mediocre let go", the quality of the yacha in Leizhou Mansion has been greatly improved, and some yacha are willing to work hard for him.

"Childe, spare your life! Spare your life! ”

Yang Qi covered his chest in pain, he no longer had the arrogance of Fang Cai, and immediately knelt loudly and begged for mercy.

Tie Zhu's head stepped forward and grabbed Yang Qi's clothes, and snorted coldly: "Just because you are a member of the Red Flag Gang, you can already cut off your head directly!" ”

"Your Excellency, you have been wronged! Wronged! This tattoo ...... I found someone to stab me myself, I'm not a member of the Red Flag Gang, I really am not a member of the Red Flag Gang! Yang Qi hurriedly explained loudly, tears streaming down his face.

"Brother, he really doesn't seem to be oh!" The tiger girl squinted at Yang Qi with her bun face, and whispered to Lin Haoran.

Lin Haoran looked at his reaction, and saw that several of Yang Qi's subordinates were also silent in denial, and immediately guessed that they might really not be members of the Red Flag Gang, or just small fish and shrimp.

It's just that he has his judgment, so he said lightly: "If you are not a member of the Red Flag Gang, what do you want so many bamboo hats for?" ”

"This ......," Yang Qi was speechless for a moment.

The iron catcher grabbed the placket of his shirt and shouted, "Say! ”

Yang Qi's face turned pale with fright, and he immediately stiffened his head and said, "I am helping the people of the Red Flag Gang to purchase these bamboo hats, and then send them over!" Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he immediately came to his senses and said, "I'm not the only one who does this, there are many people who do it!" We help the Red Flag Gang to buy things, so we get some bounty, and ...... There's a little silver tael left! ”

This is not a lie, Yang Qi is actually not a member of the Red Flag Gang, at most he is helping them do things. Every year, he takes the silver taels of the Red Flag Gang to this Yin Yang Wei to buy a lot, and then delivers the things to the designated place.

Lin Haoran was silent for a moment, and then ordered to the iron catcher: "Let Haikangwei's people come over!" ”

"Yes!" The Iron Catcher immediately saluted, and then sent out a flare.

Yang Qi looked at Lin Haoran, who came to him, looked at this face that was too young, and suddenly a terrible answer surged in his heart, and he swallowed and spitted, "You...... Who are you? ”

Even though the answer was already on the horizon, it was hard for him to believe.

"Who else do you think I am!" Lin Haoran said lightly, then stared at his eyes and said, "If you want to live, cooperate obediently, otherwise this mansion can take your life at any time!" ”

The sentencing of this matter can be heavy or light, it all depends on Lin Haoran's thoughts.

Yang Qi's guess came true, and his heart was really like ashes. He has always been proud of the Red Flag Gang, and he also bullied the township under the banner of the Red Flag Gang, but now he has become a lifeline.

"Little ...... Small one cooperates by all means! Yang Qi has never been a tough guy, the scar on his face is just hurt by the robbery, and a strong desire to survive immediately swelled in his heart.

Haikang Qianhu is affiliated to Leizhouwei, and the household office is located on the west coast, very close to here. Haikangwei's new Qianhu Duan Mainland also arranged a team of people, and it was because he was worried that something would happen to Lin Haoran, so he personally led people to wait for dispatch early in the morning.

"The last general will see Lord Lin!" Duan Dalu strode over and saluted his backer in a proper manner.

These 100 to 1,000 households are a big hurdle, and being able to implement the actual work of 1,000 households is also indispensable to Lin Haoran's help. is also the same, he respects and attaches great importance to Lin Haoran from the bottom of his heart.

Lin Haoran nodded slightly, and said unpolitely: "Duan Qianhu, you send some people to help!" All the personnel involved in bulk procurement will be taken down by the government to find out whether they are purchasing materials for the Red Flag Gang! ”

"Yes!" As soon as Duan Dalu heard that he was going to target the Red Flag Gang, he was immediately full of enthusiasm. The biggest enemy of the Haikang Qianhu Office under his current jurisdiction is none other than the powerful Bead Thief Red Flag Gang.

Yinyang Wei, this is a polder market formed spontaneously by the people. While there is no government exploitation, the law and order are relatively poor, so it is not uncommon for fights to occur every year.

It's just that there has never been such a big movement, not only alarming the officials of Leizhou Mansion, but also the people of Leizhou Guard.

The village chief of Jingweipo also served as Lizheng and took the initiative to cooperate with the work of the officials. And with his help, the suspects were quickly locked up and these people were found one by one.

"What do you do?"

"Why did you buy so many bamboo cages?"

"I ...... I have it at home, can't I? ”

"Do you need hundreds of bamboo cages in your house? Escort him back to the yamen!" ”

……

The leader of the iron hunt led the people to look for people like Yang Qi who purchased large quantities like Yang Qi in the polder city, and as soon as they found out, they immediately interrogated, and those who had problems were directly taken down.

It is also thanks to Yang Qi's gang that they forced to buy and sell under the banner of the Red Flag Gang, which made many traders resentful, and they not only did not resist the government's actions, but supported them greatly.

Lin Haoran's original intention to come to Yinyangwei was to bring benefits to ordinary people, but after discovering the existence of people like Yang Qi, a new idea was born. It was decided to follow Zhu Yuanzhang's example and cut off the supply of materials to the Red Flag Gang and let them destroy themselves at sea.

On the same day, Lin Haoran not only asked the five counties under his rule to cut off the supplies to Tokyo Bay, but also asked Lei Changjiang to cooperate with his plan and cut off the supply line of the Red Flag Gang as much as possible.

Of course, it is impossible to completely cut off the supply line of materials, but it will undoubtedly make the Red Flag Gang not so comfortable, and even achieve the effect of reducing the strength of the Red Flag Gang.

Two days later, good news came.

Duan Dalu personally led the Leizhou Wei to ambush, and really waited for the ships of the Red Flag Gang at the agreed place, and annihilated the Red Flag Gang who came to pick up the goods in one fell swoop.

Lin Haoran knew that this move was undoubtedly a formal break with the Red Flag Gang, and it would completely annoy this group of powerful bead thieves. It's just that since the Red Flag Gang started against Jiang Ronghua, the two conveniences are already destined to be incompatible.

If the Red Flag Gang is honest and the ambition is limited to Tokyo Bay, then he will not easily touch this sea beast. But they just want to block the route from Leizhou to Nanyang, which becomes his mortal enemy, and the two sides will eventually have a battle.

And now, Lin Haoran is all ready, and the new ship is about to go to the South Seas again, which makes it impossible to allow the Red Flag Gang to stop them again.

In the same way, he didn't mind showing his intention to eliminate the Red Flag Gang, and made the worst preparations for this, so that Lei Zhouwei could make arrangements to deal with the Red Flag Gang's siege.

However, there has been no movement from the Red Flag Gang, but the bad news about Gu Qingfeng has come back first.

Gu Qingfeng is in charge of Yipin sauce, so naturally he has to go to Guangxi, Guizhou and other places. After he came back from Guizhou this year, he went directly to Xincheng, Guangxi, and planned to open up the market in Xincheng.

This Xincheng belongs to the territory of the Mo family Tusi, and their family is hereditary Tuzhi County, which can be described as the Tu Emperor of Xincheng.

Gu Qingfeng looks good, he has read some books, his eloquence is also good, and now he is still the top person in charge of Yipin sauce. Perhaps in the eyes of Shen Liuye and others, this kid is just worth cultivating, but for those people in Xincheng, he is a very capable young talent.

is also like this, Gu Qingfeng was taken by Miss Mo's family.

Those Zhuang women may be a little more restrained than the Miao people, but they are also a little more restrained, and after falling in love with Gu Qingfeng, a talented and good-looking Han person, they are also completely entangled.

After seeing that the two of them were already cooked with raw rice, the Mo family did not beat Gu Qingfeng to death, and they were quite satisfied with Gu Qingfeng, so they decided to promote this family business.

If the matter came here, it would undoubtedly be a great thing, but the Mo family wanted Gu Qingfeng to get involved, otherwise he would be held accountable for violence against his own daughter.

After Gu Mancang learned the news, while scolding his son, he also found Lin Haoran.

Although he is not only Gu Qingfeng's son, he can also be regarded as a person with a head and a face, so he naturally doesn't want to do such a "shameful" thing. Even if the other party is a famous toast, he has to prevent this from happening.

After finding Lin Hao, he was even more in tears, begging Lin Haoran to help him with this, otherwise he would be ashamed of his ancestors.

Whether it is public or private, Lin Haoran naturally came forward. immediately repaired a book in her own name, and at the same time asked the girl Hu Niu to go to Wuzhou Mansion, and let Wang Fang, the governor of Liangguang, also come forward.

Tiger Girl, a wild girl, is naturally very happy about this kind of errand, since she was deceived by Lin Haoran into guarding the city at home, she has been in Leizhou City for a long time, and she also wants to walk around.

Although the matter was arranged, and Hu Niu also set off for Wuzhou Mansion, he didn't dare to be too optimistic about whether it would work, after all, the autonomy of those Tusi was too high.

In the blink of an eye, April is coming, and the government test in Leizhou is about to be held.

In February, the county examination of the five counties under his rule was completed, and the candidates who had been defeated in the government examination in the previous army gathered in Leizhou City. While they were adding color to the Leizhou Capital, they were still witnessing the changes in Leizhou City.

Maybe the students in Dianbai and Wuchuan counties will react more calmly, but the students in Suixi, Xuwen and Haikang counties have been greatly impacted, which can undoubtedly be described as earth-shaking.

Leizhou City not only has the emergence of large workshops such as Liangong Workshop, but also luxurious restaurants, green buildings and theaters have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and has become a veritable first city in western Guangdong.

Even they have heard that the plan to rebuild an outer city in Leizhou City has been put on the agenda, and a new outer city will be built outside the Zhenyang Gate.

This annual government examination is not only a grand event for candidates, but also an active period for students to be a student of Baoliao, and it is also the most visible day for school officials.

Although the Ming Dynasty implemented the three divisions, the scholars were actually not under the jurisdiction of the three divisions. Like a provincial school officer, this position is personally appointed and dismissed by the imperial court, responsible for the education affairs of the province, and directly responsible to the imperial court.

In the land of a government, there are professors, scholars, instructors, and other scholars.

These scholars were mainly responsible for the teaching of government schools and county schools, and although they were usually poor, they had a very high prestige and had a great influence among the scholars.

Because he didn't hold real power, he was relatively clean, so he had a lot of confidence to speak. Even in the face of the prefect, if the other party is not acting properly, they dare to count down without face.

In particular, the professor of Fuxue, although this position is a Zhengqipin, is held by a non-commissioned officer. If the other party is a prefect from a high background, and his hands are still very unclean, then he really has the confidence to pull the table in front of him.

Similar to those who speak officially, the promotion of academic officials relies more on "clearing the name", and they are more able to ascend to the position if they are unyielding.

For example, when Hai Rui served as the county school teacher, he did not kneel when he saw the prefect inspecting, and moved out of the Ming law, and got a good reputation of "Haibi Frame", so he was recommended by the officials of the academic system.

It's just that when I get to Lin Haoran, things are naturally different.

Not to mention the political resources that Lin Haoran has, just his Wenkui background is enough to make the professor from the top three Jinshi bow his head. What's more, he governed the Leizhou Mansion so well, and secretly increased their income, it was impossible for them to dare to argue with Lin Haoran.

In particular, Lin Haoran, the name of the King of Lin Yama, was not called in vain, and ordinary people only noticed that he had destroyed the Yellow Flag Gang, the Blue Flag Gang and the Buddha Lang Man, but they saw that the King of Lin Yama had lost Diao Nan and Han Shisheng of the Military Preparation Road, and even Wang Bai, the political envoy, was also pushed off the altar by him.

"Meet the Lord!"

When the scholars saw Lin Haoran appear, they immediately stood up and saluted respectfully.
