He endured his anger and continued reading: Give him an official robe and a token, and recruit the rest on his own!
Damn it! There is no temporary official position, no salary, and no subordinates. What a huge pitfall!
This is simply a waste of time!
Anyone else would have fallen out with Zhou Yulang, but Ling Feng held it back. After all, this was his own business, and there was no question of who was helping whom.
Early the next morning, the red sun rose.
Ling Feng put on a blue official uniform and led a dozen people to Qiao Mansion.
If you want to get the whole county to contribute, naturally you have to let the three major aristocratic families bleed first, so that other aristocratic families, wealthy businessmen, and landlords will not dare to disobey, and the subsequent work will be simple.
Naturally, when picking persimmons, you have to pick the soft persimmons, and the Qiao family is obviously the soft persimmon among the three great aristocratic families.
The vermilion gate is closed, and only the two side doors are open.
There are two large stone lions standing in front of the door, and two guards in white uniforms are guarding the door.
When they saw Ling Feng wearing official uniform and coming with a group of people, they said coldly: "Who, do you have a greeting card?"
Although the Qiao family has lost its inherited magic weapon and is no longer as good as before, it is still the family of a county magistrate and has deep-rooted influence. It is not an ordinary family, and even officials need to have invitations to pay respects.
Ling Feng smiled and said: "No, but you can go and report that Ling Feng, the deputy leader of the Qingjiao Gang, is here to visit!"
The expressions of the two guards suddenly changed drastically. The direct reason why the Qiao family was in this situation was Ling Feng. One of them immediately hurried in to report.
After a while, the guard came out and said: "Master, you are the only one allowed to go in!"
Xiao Wenliang immediately said: "Deputy gang leader, be careful of fraud!"
Ling Feng smiled and said: "I hope he takes action, but I'm afraid he won't have the guts. Protector Xiao, you guys stay outside the door and wait for good news!"
Then, Ling Feng followed the guard into a courtyard.
Standing at the entrance of the courtyard were two guards in white wearing swords.
In the courtyard, a white-clothed figure is practicing sword practice. His figure changes rapidly, there are many phantoms, and the sword shines heavily, making it impossible to see his specific appearance.
As Ling Feng arrived, the figure in white suddenly slashed at Ling Feng, and the white sword energy came quickly.
Ling Feng dodged, and the sword energy passed by his side, hitting a small tree next to the wall and cutting it off.
The white-clothed figure stopped, revealing a gentle middle-aged man, who was the current head of the family, Qiao Yunfeng. He put the sword back into its sheath, smiled and clasped his fists, saying: "Deputy Gang Leader Lin, I'm sorry, I made a mistake, please forgive me!"
Ling Feng couldn't see the slightest apology on his face, but he just smiled lightly and said: "Master Qiao's sword skills are sharp, I admire him! However, I didn't come here to see Brother Qiao's sword skills. Now Liu Feng has taken refuge in Netherworld Palace.
, has led all the soldiers to rebel, and will invade the county in the near future. The county governor ordered me to be the logistics manager, and come to collect money, food, soldiers, and the head of the family is requested to cooperate! If you have any doubts, you can go to the county governor's house and ask!"
"No need, the Sheriff has sent someone to notify you last night. If you want me, the Qiao family, to pay for the help, you can do it, but Deputy Gang Leader Lin must stand still, cannot dodge, and is not allowed to use weapons. If you take a knife from me, it is considered
Let’s settle the grudge between the deputy gang leader and my brother.”
Qiao Yunfeng smiled. He had long known Ling Feng's weakness of not having deep internal strength, so he made this request.
He couldn't move, didn't use weapons, and let others chop him. Ling Feng was not a fool, so how could he be willing to be a target? Therefore, he immediately sneered and said: "Master Qiao, if that's the case, don't blame me for being rude!"
Qiao Yunfeng said coldly: "That's okay. The Qingjiao's gang is so powerful that it's hard for Qiao to resist it. You can do whatever you want! But it's me."
Ling Feng suddenly became angry. He just wanted to scare him. If he really dared to rob, it would arouse everyone's resistance. Many aristocratic families, landowners, and wealthy businessmen would join forces to resist, and they might sue him to the state capital first.
This old fox obviously saw clearly the situation Ling Feng was in, so he took the opportunity to threaten him and wanted to kill him.
Ling Feng thought for a moment and then said coldly: "That's okay, but if you dare to go back on your word, Qiao Liufeng's collusion with Netherworld Palace will be enough to wipe out your whole family!"
In fact, if he wanted to coerce and induce, Ling Feng had many ways. Even if he didn't have Qiao Liufeng joining the Netherworld Palace, he could create some evidence at will, but this was the last resort. Since Qiao Yunfeng wanted to take a gamble, he would help him.
Qiao Yunfeng smiled and said: "Okay, it's a deal!"
After a while, the two faced each other about ten feet apart.
Ling Feng's true energy gathered in his right arm, and the sword intention between his brows was ready to strike.
Qiao Yunfeng drew his sword out of its sheath, and the bright long sword was flowing with brilliance. It was a top-grade sharp weapon. As the thick angry waves of true energy in his body were poured into him, the white sword light surged. As the angry waves of true energy continued to condense, the white sword light turned introverted,
He suddenly slashed out with his sword, and a white sword energy as solid as a piece of sword quickly slashed towards Ling Feng.
Qiao Yunfeng's cultivation level is slightly inferior to that of his brother, but he has also entered the middle stage of Xiantian. With profound skills and a long period of gathering Qi, this blow is equivalent to twice his usual full force blow.
Ling Feng's expression remained unchanged, and he suddenly punched out, condensing a white fist and hitting the white sword energy.
With a bang, Rupi Lian's sword energy exploded, and then turned into white energy and dissipated!
However, Ling Feng was not unscathed. There was a blood mark on his fist, which was caused by the sword energy.
But he has the talent of flesh and blood regeneration, and his wounds heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Qiao Yunfeng's expression was full of disbelief, how could Hou Tianqi resist his such condensed innate sword Qi!
In fact, Ling Feng mainly relied on his sword intention to defeat Qiao Yunfeng's sword energy.
The innate sword energy can be so condensed because the true energy contains the spiritual imprint of Qiao Yunfeng.
Ling Feng used his sword to kill the spiritual brand, just like the three armies had lost all their officers and turned into a piece of loose sand!
However, this is also because Ling Feng's internal strength has reached its peak and his true energy is strong, so he can completely defeat the loose sword energy.
Ling Feng said calmly: "Master Qiao, how are you doing?"
Qiao Yunfeng took a deep look at Ling Feng and said in a deep voice: "Ninety percent of Qiao's servants and guards will go to the county governor's house to report, and I will also send money and food to the county governor's house!"
Immediately, he turned around and said coldly: "Come, let's see you off!"
Ling Feng was not angry and left Qiao Mansion with the two guards.
Xiao Wenliang saw Ling Feng coming out and asked, "How is it?"
Ling Feng smiled and said: "Done! Let's go to Yufu now!"
…
A moment later, Yufu.
The specifications of Yufu are similar to Qiaofu, and they are equally grand.
Ling Feng and his group had just walked to the door.
A guard at the door clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Lin, the master of the house invites you!"
Ling Feng came to the study and saw an old man in white robes with a long beard, about fifty years old, reading.
The old man's appearance was not impressive, and his energy was reserved. If Ling Feng hadn't observed carefully and sensed a hidden strong energy, he would have thought he was just an ordinary old man. If he had been in another place, he would never have thought that this old man was Yu Shenxiu's brother, Yu Shenxiu.
The head of the house is full of jade.
Seeing Ling Feng coming, Yu Manlou put down the yellowed books and said seriously: "Mr. Lin, most of the servants and guards in the mansion have already reported to the county governor's mansion. As for donating money and food, you can do it, but you can't give the money to
The Sheriff's Office must put the money into practical use and use it to comfort the families of those soldiers who died in the war. Is it possible for you to do this?"
Ling Feng nodded and said in awe: "This is what you should do, I promise you. If anyone dares to embezzle this money, no matter where he is, my sword will show no mercy!"
Yu Manlou smiled slightly and said: "This puts me at ease. Later you and Butler Wu go to the accounting room to get 200,000 taels of silver, and then go to the warehouse to move 200 shi of rice!"
Ling Feng cupped his fists and said, "Thank you sir!"
At this time, an old man dressed as a butler hurried in and said, "Sir, it's bad, something big has happened!"
Immediately, he looked at Ling Feng and stopped talking.
Yu Mantang said calmly: "Old Wu, it's not in the way, but I just said it's okay!"
Butler Wu said: "Master, last night the thieves attacked Qingling County, burned, killed, looted and raped women. Almost all the wealthy households in the city were killed. Several of our properties in the county were also looted. Several shopkeepers were also looted.
All of them died, and only one restaurant waiter hid in the underground wine cellar and survived by chance, so the news came!"
Yu Manlou suddenly slapped the desk and said angrily: "These damn beasts!"
The case was almost not broken, but there was a deep palm mark on it. It was obvious that the skill was extraordinary, and the movement was extremely skillful, subtle and full of fire.
Ling Feng was shocked, but he felt something unusual. Burning, killing, looting, this was stimulating evil thoughts in people's hearts, this was a quick way to train troops!
Soldiers who have not seen blood will be at a loss when they arrive on the battlefield, and they will be fearful. Their 100% combat strength will only be used at 20-30%. And once the situation is unfavorable, it is easy to retreat hastily and cause a great rout. Soldiers who have seen blood and those who have not seen blood will be at a loss.
Soldiers who see blood have two kinds of fighting power!
Moreover, there are more than a dozen counties in Qinghe County. If they are allowed to continue burning, killing and looting, they will soon become a wolf army with wolf nature, greed and bloodthirsty!
At that time, Liu Feng will probably drive the people to attack the city, and it will be difficult to defend Qinghe County!
This can't go on!
He decided to quickly collect the troops and then lead a small team to harass and contain the enemy troops. He could not let them kill wantonly and train his troops calmly!
Therefore, he clasped his fists and said: "Old sir, Ling has a few places to go, farewell!"
Yu Mantang's expression returned to calmness and he said: "Butler Wu, send Master Lin off for me!"
Immediately, Ling Feng left with Butler Wu. (To be continued.)
