"The backer of Jiang You and the others should be Wang Er. As for someone higher, I don't think there is one."
Yang Chengwu was actually not sure.
"As the local emperor of Youzhou, the Gao family has great power. Although Wang Er is just a steward, his status is actually not low. He can actually speak in the entire Youzhou City. With the status of Jiang You and the others, he can curry favor with Jiang You and others.
Going to Wang Er is actually the limit."
Yang Chengwu knew that Huang An was lacking in human sophistication, so he helped Huang An analyze it.
"It makes sense." Huang An thought thoughtfully and initially agreed with Yang Chengwu's analysis.
He had just fallen into a misunderstanding before, thinking that Wang Er was just a nobody.
But when I think about it carefully, I see Wang Er from my current standpoint.
However, don't think Wang Er is just a steward of the Gao family.
But there are also differences between managers.
Just like real world drivers.
Can the driver of the richest man in the county be compared with the driver of the richest man in the country?
Wang Er is definitely not as simple as he thought before.
Gao Zheng was the governor, in charge of the military and horsemen throughout Youzhou. His power was comparable to that of a feudal official, the Tu Emperor.
Wang Er, who was able to serve as a steward in the high government, seemed to have a low status.
In fact, the three bandit leaders Jiang You who returned to Longshan were not even qualified to carry people's shoes.
When Wang Er leaves Youzhou City and goes to any county in Youzhou, he is a big shot that even the county magistrate needs to curry favor with.
"Do you know what Wang Er's status is in the Gao family?"
Huang An asked again.
Yang Chengwu was slightly startled, but soon understood the true meaning of Huang An's words.
The eldest brother asked what Wang Er's status was among the stewards of the Gao family at the same level.
He pondered slightly, seeming to be thinking.
"The Gao family has a big business. There are no less than ten stewards in the Gao Mansion alone. As for the stewards outside the mansion, there are probably about thirty people in total."
Huang An nodded and pondered in his heart.
Wang Er's status is either high or low.
In Huang An's view, Wang Er's status is actually very embarrassing.
Externally, his status is very high.
But in the entire Gao family, he is just a small and powerful servant.
After all, he is still a slave.
"In this way, the backer of Jiang You and the others is only Wang Er."
Huang An relaxed a little.
"I just don't know whether Wang Er controls the bandits in Huilong Mountain on his own initiative or on the Governor's initiative?"
Logically speaking, Feng'an County and Fen County are poor and remote counties with small populations and even less output.
It's not a strategic location.
As a bandit in Huilongshan, the amount of money and other items robbed from the common people and small caravans should not be much.
The Gaofu family has a great business, so they should look down on this little money.
However, I am afraid that the real backer of returning to Longshan is the governor, not Wang Er.
It is also possible that the governor, through the existence of Huilong Mountain, could control the two counties of Feng'an and Fen, and the access to Youzhou City.
Who can really know the thoughts of big men?
Yes, Huang An also wants to annex Huilongshan.
The world is about to be in chaos, and it is the best time to recruit troops, occupy territory, and develop stably.
Since he already knew the news, he naturally wanted to strike first.
Behind him stood his master, who was now married to the Gao family.
Then I can completely fake the power of the tiger and quickly strengthen myself, or the power of the Zhao family.
With the master's current power, he can completely cover himself.
Faced with Huang An's questioning, Yang Chengwu also became speechless.
"this......"
He hesitated for a moment, but still didn't dare to confirm.
"I don't know, little brother!"
However, Yang Chengwu can see it now.
The eldest brother Huang An actually wanted to devour Huilongshan as well.
No wonder he asked so many questions just now.
Brother's concerns are very reasonable.
If Wang Er made his own decision in this matter, he only supported Hui Longshan because he was greedy for money.
Then everything is easy to say.
Although the eldest brother Huang An is just the apprentice of his master.
But this time after he and his mistress acted as a facade to welcome guests, his status and status were completely different.
He is considered the number one figure in the entire Youzhou.
To the current eldest brother, Wang Er is just a servant of the Gao family.
Asking Wang Er to give up and go back to Longshan was just a matter of personal friendship.
After all, Mistress is the eldest lady of the Gao family.
But if Huilongshan’s real backer is the governor, then forget about it.
This matter shouldn't be something that juniors like Huang An and Yang Chengwu can worry about.
At the very least, you need to be at the level of a master to get the idea back to Longshan.
With a roll of his eyes, Yang Chengwu had something to worry about.
He tried:
"Brother, why don't you ask the master's wife?"
As soon as these words came out, Huang An frowned even more tightly.
"Master's wife?"
"Yes, my wife has served in the army and the governor's office. She must know the real details of Huilongshan."
Yang Chengwu vowed to do so.
"If I ask, Mistress will definitely understand my intention to annex and return to Longshan. If I want to annex and return to Longshan, it will definitely harm the interests of the Gao family. Once she wants to stop me, it will become troublesome."
Huang An hesitated.
Even Yang Chengwu stopped talking. He realized that he had been careless.
Although the Ming Dynasty also emphasized that when you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, when you marry a dog, follow the dog, and when the husband sings and the wife follows this routine.
But the master's wife is a warrior from a noble family, and her martial arts level is not weak.
After marrying her master, is it possible that she can really serve the Zhao family wholeheartedly?
Huang An couldn't guarantee it.
After all, in the real world, a married daughter is not just water thrown away.
"I will discuss this matter with the master first."
Huang An sighed.
Since you enjoy the convenience brought by the master, you will naturally be subject to the restrictions brought by this status.
His identity cannot be messed with.
Why does the emperor speak so eloquently?
Why is the noble man so late in speaking?
Why do big figures rarely express their opinions and suggestions in public?
All because of their identity and status restrictions.
It can be said that in the real world, the top leader in the county said in the middle of the night that he wanted to eat free-range eggs.
Three minutes later, a certain village in the county would be in a state of uproar.
Although Huang An's martial arts cultivation is still very low now.
But in the whole of Youzhou, he is actually considered a big shot.
In the real world, he can be regarded as the son of a powerful family in a provincial capital city and the successor of this huge political family.
He has now reached a level where he needs to pay attention to his words and deeds in public.
"Although I don't know how the master will arrange for us, it is always good to prepare for a rainy day."
Huang An muttered to himself, then looked solemn and ordered:
"When you return to the city this time, you will stay in Youzhou City, listen to all kinds of news, and collect information about the entire Youzhou City for us!"
Huang An's words were spoken not only from his own standpoint, but also from the standpoint of the Zhao family.
"ah?"
Yang Chengwu was surprised.
"Collecting intelligence?" He looked puzzled.
However, seeing that Huang An didn't explain the reason further, he didn't ask further questions.
"I want you to find out the entire Youzhou as quickly as possible. I will communicate with the master about this matter. If you want people, give them money, and if you want money, give them money!"
Huang An made up his mind.
Having come here from the real world, he can better understand the importance of intelligence.
As a new member of Youzhou officialdom, the master has not yet had time to establish his own intelligence network.
And the world is in chaos, now is the last golden time.
On both the black and white paths, Yang Chengwu had his master as his backer.
When it comes to money, Yang Chengwu has himself as his backer.
No matter from any perspective, with these two major advantages, there is not much difficulty in establishing an intelligence network.
The establishment of the intelligence network and the most needed money have been solved, so other small problems are not a problem anymore.
