Xiangfu Teahouse, private seating on the second floor.
Lei Hu and Huang Feihong sat opposite each other. There was a teapot and several plates of snacks on the tea table. The tea cups in front of them were steaming hot and fragrant.
The two were speechless for a while. After a long time, Huang Feihong suddenly said: "Tell me, what do you have to tell me?"
He was also very curious. Lei Hu had found an excuse to send Lin Shirong away before. Now that the two of them were alone, they obviously had more important things to talk about.
But he didn't think that he had anything to do with Zhongyi Tang, or the Lei Hu in front of him.
"Master Huang, he must be worried about the Black Flag Army recently!"
Lei Hu smiled slightly and said directly without being polite. As for the main reason why he was looking for Huang Feihong, he didn't reveal the slightest bit.
Huang Feihong's face darkened, he glared at Lei Hu and said dissatisfiedly, "This is a matter of the Black Flag Army and has nothing to do with you. Master Hu, please don't make the mistake!"
The tone was full of displeasure, and the threat was self-evident.
"Why doesn't it matter?"
Lei Hu did not take it seriously, chuckled and said leisurely: "I have a way to solve the current troubles of the Black Flag Army, but I have to make a deal with Master Huang!"
"What trouble can Black Flag cause?"
Huang Feihong's eyes turned cold and he said dissatisfiedly, "Master Tiger, aren't you talking nonsense?"
His tone was already very dissatisfied. Fortunately, he had good self-cultivation. If another Black Flag Army general were here, he would have turned the tables and turned against him.
"Most of the Black Flag Army was disbanded at once, and nearly two thousand brothers suddenly left the army. The court only gave a small resettlement fee. It is impossible for the top brass of the Black Flag Army to ignore the future lives of these disbanded brothers!"
Seeing that Huang Feihong didn't fall for the trick, Lei Hu was not angry and pointed it out directly: "Although the Black Flag Army has a great reputation, it has no backing in the imperial court and the governor's office of Guangdong and Guangxi. Its own accumulation is only average. I want to rely on my own ability to make arrangements."
The aftermath of the fired brothers is obviously unrealistic!"
"So what?"
Huang Feihong was shocked. He didn't expect that Lei Hu could see so clearly and understand the current predicament of the Black Flag Army at a glance. He was also having a headache about this matter. Seeing Lei Hu speak solemnly, his tone couldn't help but become serious.
, the previous impatience is gone.
Of course, he was not stupid. Naturally, he refused to let Lei Hu have the right to speak. He asked angrily: "Isn't there something you can do?"
This is what I've been waiting for!
Lei Hu smiled slightly, faced Huang Feihong's unhappy and probing eyes, and said with a leisurely smile, "This is natural!"
boom!
As if a thunder exploded in his ears, Huang Feihong was stunned and exclaimed: "How is this possible?"
"Nothing is impossible?"
As if he didn't see Huang Feihong's shocked expression, Lei Hu chuckled leisurely and said confidently: "Let me guess what Master Huang or the Black Flag Army will do. I heard that Master Huang is currently organizing a militia group.
Are you running around to resettle the disbanded brothers of the Black Flag Army?"
"You, you, you, how did you know?"
Huang Feihong was in a state of confusion at this time, looking at Lei Hu with disbelief in his eyes.
The secret in his heart was revealed directly. Even with his composure, he couldn't help but feel flustered and even have a little bit of fear.
"What's so hard to guess?"
Ignoring Huang Feihong's complexion changing from green to white, Lei Hu said with a leisurely smile: "Half of the Black Flag Army has just been disbanded, and Master Huang can't wait to form a militia. Who would believe that he has no contact?"
Before Huang Feihong could speak, he continued, "Besides, who in the entire Chan City doesn't know that Master Huang has a close relationship with the Black Flag Army, and is a close friend of Liu Yongfu?"
call……
Huang Feihong let out a long breath. Lei Hu's explanation made his heart suddenly light up. The fear he had felt just now was gone, and he secretly laughed at how rare and strange he was.
Yes, the entire Chancheng City knew about his relationship with the Black Flag Army, and at this time, he was running up and down to organize a militia group. If he said that it had nothing to do with the dismantling of the Black Flag Army, he himself did not believe it.
"Isn't this bad?"
Since Lei Hu mentioned this, Huang Feihong had no intention of hiding it, and directly asked: "Does Master Hu have a better way?"
As for the fact that everyone in Chancheng knew his thoughts, Huang Feihong was not too worried. Neither the Chancheng government nor the people would have much objection. The reputation of the Baozhilin Huang family and his son was still trustworthy.
Huang Feihong was quite confident about this.
"This idea still works, but there is a problem!"
Lei Hu cheered up and asked with a smile: "I'm afraid there are thousands of disbanded brothers from the Black Flag Army who have entered the militia. How can their livelihood be guaranteed?"
this……
Huang Feihong was speechless when he was asked. This was the biggest headache for him and the top brass of the Black Flag Army. The livelihood of the thousands of Black Flag Army brothers who had joined the militia was not guaranteed.
"Do you want to do some small business or farm?"
Seeing Lei Hu's aggressive attitude, asking for answers, he felt quite upset and said, "With the prosperity of Chan City, it's not difficult to get away with stuttering!"
Speaking of which, Chancheng has become more and more prosperous recently, thanks to the celebrity in front of me.
The streets and docks under the control of Zhongyi Hall have been undergoing major rectification and cleaning recently. With the strict maintenance of order, half of the streets and docks in Chancheng have a completely new look, the environment has been greatly improved, and business has become more prosperous, even
There are even more Chinese and foreign ships coming and going on the pier.
If you really want to talk about it, it is simply a huge irony.
Under the rule of the government, the market was quite chaotic, and the environment was not to mention all kinds of filth and chaos. However, a gang organization in Zhongyi Parish managed several streets and docks in an orderly and prosperous way. Anyone with a discerning eye was quite speechless about this situation.
In recent times, the contacts between Zhongyi Hall and the local gentry in Chancheng have increased, and their reputation has improved a lot. This is the main reason why Huang Feihong was willing to go to the appointment to visit the ring for discussion, and also agreed to meet Lei Hu alone.
But he never expected that what Lei Hu told him was actually about the livelihood of the laid-off officers of the Black Flag Army, which made him speechless and very depressed at the same time.
"No, no, no, this is really bad!"
Ignoring the complicated look on Huang Feihong's face, Lei Hu shook his head repeatedly and said with a smile, "Once the militia brothers are busy making a living and scattered, people's hearts will naturally disperse over time!"
What he didn't say after that was that it would be difficult to lead an army if people's hearts were scattered. Think about it, thousands of men are working hard every day to make a living, and they are all fighting on their own. How can they care about the militia?
As time goes by, if everyone only cares about their own small interests and develops a careless temper, it will be really doomed. Not to mention the purpose of the militia will completely fail, and the combat effectiveness will directly drop off a cliff...
