Lin Yuan said in surprise: "Why do you want to say, 'I know him too'?" Do you know him? ”

Gao Yu didn't take this person named 'Wei Qingyuan' seriously at all, smiled and said, "Of course I know him, what's wrong?" ”

Lin Yuan asked in surprise, "Do you know him?" I asked Yu Baoshui and An Dezhong, none of the locals had heard of this person, and you actually knew him! ”

Gao Yu said with a smile: "Since you have inquired with Yu Baoshui and An Dezhong, then you must know Huang Ying, the head of the Antai Dart Bureau?" ”

Lin Yuan said, "They mentioned this person to me."

Gao Yu said: "Wei Qingyuan is Huang Ying's master!" ”

Lin Yuan asked, "Then how did you know him?" How did you know this person? Also, my biggest question is: Why do you know the Tao of the people who they don't know the Tao? ”

Gao Yu said with a smile: "When my brother and I were in Shaanxi and Gansu, we used to deal with this Antai dart game, and this Wei Qingyuan retired at that time, and handed over the affairs of the dart game to Huang Ying to take care of, basically nothing happened, so people gradually forgot about him." ”

"As for how I met him, I have to start with Wei Qingyuan, Wei Qingyuan and his wife have never had children, who made me such a likable little girl back then? He asked me to be his daughter, and he wanted my brother to be his son, but my brother didn't agree to anything, and Wei Qingyuan had no choice but to accept the two of us as apprentices. ”

Lin Yuan asked, "Isn't it a good thing that Wei Qingyuan wants to take you in?" Why doesn't your brother agree? ”

Gao Yu smiled and said, "Then do you need to talk about it?" My brother has a good face, and I don't really want to be his daughter. ”

Lin Yuan asked: "You must have no worries about food and clothing with him, why don't you want to?" ”

Gao Yu said with a smile: "The reason is very simple, the two of us are in all directions, although we say that we have eaten the last meal and the next meal, but we are free, no one cares about us, that Wei Qingyuan's family has a lot of rules, and the two of us can't stand it." ”

Lin Yuan nodded, and Gao Yu continued: "The color of this worship post is yellow, it seems that it is definitely not new, where did you get this worship post?" ”

Lin Yuan then told Gao Yu about the affairs of the Panruo Temple, and Gao Yu said: "So that's the case, then are you going to this Antai Dart Bureau?" They all hate you to death. ”

Lin Yuan almost thought he had misheard, and asked Gao Yudao, "What did you say?" They hate me to death? Why do they hate me? ”

Gao Yu said with a smile: "The business of their dart bureau was originally doing well, but if you build the railway, the railway will be repaired, it will be convenient to transport goods, and there will be fewer bandits, can the business of the dart bureau still be good?" Do you think they should hate you? ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "Even if they hate me, they won't help the Japanese, right?" ”

Gao Yu said with a smile: "Who said that they would go to help the Japanese, but if you want to find them to do something or understand the situation, they will definitely do everything possible to pass the buck, do you understand?" ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "So that's the case, I must go to Tianshui to find the Antai Dart Bureau to understand the situation next, so what should I do?" ”

Gao Yu smiled: "Of course I'm here to help you, they will definitely do their best to help you with me, but ......"

Lin Yuan saw Gao Yu's sudden embarrassment, and thought that this matter would be difficult to handle, so he hurriedly asked, "Is there any difficulty?" ”

Gao Yu suddenly laughed evilly for a while, and said: "I'll go with you, Sister Wanqing will definitely be unhappy......" After speaking, he ran out, Lin Yuan thought helplessly: "I wanted to make fun of her for a while, but I didn't expect her to make fun of her." ”

As soon as Gao Yu left, Yuan Shikai sent someone to find Lin Yuan and asked Lin Yuan to go over, saying that there was something important to discuss, Lin Yuan hurriedly went to Yuan Shikai's camp, Yuan Shikai smiled and said, "Lin Shuai, you missed the appointment." ”

Lin Yuan asked, "I missed the appointment?" What did I miss? ”

Yuan Shikai said with a smile: "You promised me to get the information about Long Tengfei, but you didn't get it, didn't you miss the appointment?" ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "Didn't I still say that I would let your subordinates drive into Gansu after ten days?" How did you forget? ”

Yuan Shikai smiled and said, "That's right, that's right, I mentioned the intelligence covenant just to say a joke, Lord Lin doesn't have to worry about it." ”

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "Yuan Shikai didn't call me here today just to joke, right?" I was thinking about it when I heard Yuan Shikai say: "I asked Lin Shuai to come today because of an important matter to discuss with you. ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "Lord Yuan, but it's okay to talk about it. ”

Yuan Shikai said: "According to our understanding, the four prefectures and eight prefectures in Gansu, in addition to Ningxia Prefecture, Qingyang Prefecture and Pingliang Prefecture, the other four prefectures and five prefectures have suffered extremely serious locust plagues and droughts, and the people are hungry. ”

Lin Yuan said with a smile: "The reason why the people will get up this time is because they are hungry, if they have food, they won't have trouble, you and I don't have to come here, so treat the hungry people like water, blocking is not good, it must be channeled, so we have to send food to the hungry." ”

Yuan Shikai smiled, and then said to an officer on the side: "Quartermaster, can you talk about Lin Shuai's idea?" ”

The quartermaster smiled and said: "Please forgive the villain, Lin Shuai, according to the number of households in Gansu submitted to the Ministry of Household by the Gansu Political Envoy last year, there are now four million people in the four prefectures and five prefectures in Gansu, and according to one pound of flour per person per day, we will give four million pounds of flour to the hungry people a day!" With such a large number, needless to say, our troops can't bear it, I'm afraid even the household department can't turn it over! ”

Lin Yuan said: "How can things be as terrible as you say, after the chaos in the previous period, the population of Gansu must have dropped a lot, and there must be grain in Gansu." ”

The quartermaster said, "Then we can't afford to supply it, and our people will have to eat too!" And we didn't bring that much food at all. ”

Lin Yuan said: "You can rest assured, I'll figure it out." ”

Yuan Shikai smiled: "Since Lord Lin can find a way, it would be great!" The matter of buying food for the victims depends on Lin Shuai! ”

Lin Yuan agreed, and contacted the Northeast when he left the camp tent, asking the Northeast to transport grain to Gansu, and the comrade in charge of grain said as soon as he heard Lin Yuan's request: "Captain, although there is grain in the Northeast, the quantity is not particularly large, there are so many victims in Gansu, I wonder if the road can be enough?" ”

Lin Yuan said: "Immediately use our foreign exchange reserves to buy grain in the international market, remember, the matter of buying grain must be kept secret, if your information is revealed, those big consortia that control the grain transaction will immediately increase the price!" ”

Lin Yuan arranged these things, and followed Yuan Shikai's Fengzi camp to Tianshui in the next day, and on the way, Ning Maniac said to Lin Yuan: "Lin Shuai, I don't know how the situation in Tianshui is going?" ”

Lin Yuan said with a smile: "We should be able to enter the city directly, the main force of Long Tengfei has been wiped out by us, what else can a small Tianshui City stop us?" ”

Soon Lin Yuan came to Tianshui City, the defenders of the dragon soaring in the city went out of the city and surrendered, Lin Yuan and Ning Maniac entered the city smoothly, Lin Yuan thought about going to the Antai Dart Bureau, so he went to find Gao Yu.
