One day one month after the conflict with the French captain and his sailors, someone from the Yamen suddenly came. He was also the most confidant of the chief officer's staff, and he came directly to invite him to the flower hall of the Yamen.
"Leihu, do you know your guilt?"
As soon as the chief official of the Yamen showed up, he shouted angrily with a "righteous" look on his face.
"Sir, I don't know what the crime is."
Lei Hu sat on the chair without moving, and asked lazily: "It couldn't be about the fight with the foreigners that day, right?"
Although what he said was a question, his tone was very sure.
only……
It was obvious that the chief official of the Yamen did not want to make the matter a big deal, otherwise he would not have met in the flower hall, but went directly to the court to play tricks in the Yamen.
"Asking even though you know it!"
The chief officer of the Yamen was not angry at Lei Hu's rude behavior. Who told him to get a lot of money from Zhongyi Hall?
Even for the sake of money, he has to give some face, right?
"Why, have the foreigners finally taken action?"
Lei Hu was not polite at all and asked directly: "Sir, I wonder what charges the foreigners have accused me of, and how noisy they are?"
The matter was obvious. The chief officer of the Yamen in front of him was from the same group as him. There was no need to use politeness and trickery. It would have been better to go straight to the point. Lei Hu could see clearly and did it easily.
"Beating foreigners for no reason has caused dissatisfaction among the French navy!"
The chief officer of the Yamen didn't hide anything and said with a smile, "This is such a big deal, Lei Hu, how can you still laugh?"
"Why can't you laugh?"
Faced with the yamen chief's confusion and displeasure, Lei Hu smiled and said, "That guy just made such a fuss. It's really an embarrassment to the French!"
Seeing the ugly look on the Yamen chief's face, he said angrily, "You must know exactly how this happened. I didn't even ask that guy for compensation for the damage to the dock!"
Afterwards, statistics showed that the losses of the merchants and people on the dock were not small, as much as hundreds of taels. For them, whose life was already difficult, this was an unforeseen disaster, and their lives would be very tight for a long time to come.
"How dare you think about it!"
The chief officer of the Yamen sneered: "Tell me, how do you plan to solve this?"
"Your Majesty, don't you know the case well? Why do you need to go around in circles with me?"
Lei Hu got straight to the point; "Tell me, how much money is needed to suppress this matter?"
"Is this what I am?"
The chief officer of the Yamen wanted to be reserved for a while, but Lei Hu had no intention of wasting time with him. He looked over with an evil look, and the man immediately made an offer: "Three thousand taels!"
laugh……
This is the bureaucrat of the Qing Dynasty. Obviously the French did not exert much pressure, otherwise they would not be bargaining with Lei Hu in the flower hall. How dare they ask for three thousand taels?
"make a deal!"
Lei Hu made a decision directly, not bothering to bargain with the guy in front of him, and said coldly, "I will ask Zhongyi Hall to send the banknote later. I hope you will do things well after taking the money, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences!"
After saying that, he stood up and left without paying any attention to the chief officer of the Yamen.
"hateful!"
Seeing Lei Hu being so rude, a trace of ferocity flashed in the Yamen chief's eyes, but he quickly retracted his displeasure and wondered if he had asked for less just now.
Lei Hu came out of the yamen and took a long breath. The last worry in his heart disappeared completely. The performance of the yamen chief was enough to prove that the pressure exerted by the French was nothing at all.
He is not afraid that the chief official of the Yamen will not do anything if he takes the money. The money from Zhongyi Hall is not that easy to get. If Lei Hu is really pissed off, he can tell the chief official of the Yamen to get out in a minute.
It's not that he has connections in higher-level yamen, but the advantage of powerful local snakes. He can easily drive them away by just creating a little trouble that the yamen chief can't afford.
With checks and balances in place, Lei Hu didn't pay much attention to the greedy Yamen chief. This guy only valued money and not people, so he could be dealt with easily.
He went back to the hall first and explained the matter clearly to Qin Bao. Qin Bao immediately patted his chest and promised to send someone to deliver the banknote immediately, telling Lei Hu to just practice hard and let Zhongyi Hall help solve other chores.
The leader of the Loyalty Hall is very happy that Lei Hu has received careful guidance from Huang Feihong, and he believes that his strength will soon improve by leaps and bounds.
By then, with the help of a master like Lei Hu and no shortage of money on hand, his position as the leader of the hall will be more stable, and he will no longer have to worry about threats from within the hall.
Not to mention, Lei Hu has already agreed that when Qin Bao's children grow up to be seven or eight years old and can practice martial arts, he will personally teach them.
With such a guarantee, Qin Bao seemed to have taken reassurance and no longer had any worries in his heart. In addition to being busy with the daily affairs of the hall, he was also working hard to create people to pass on the cause of Zhongyi Hall.
Lei Hu could clearly see what Qin Bao was thinking, so naturally he wouldn't reveal it.
After explaining the matter clearly, he immersed himself in the exercise of Ma Buzhuang, hoping to enter the state of entering the palace as soon as possible, so that he could learn from Huang Feihong the method of entering Ming Jin.
Huang Feihong was very tight-lipped, and Lei Hu couldn't disturb Huang Qiying, but Lin Shirong's words were quite easy to trick. He invited the guy to have a drink, and then quickly stepped into Ming Jin's orifice to easily explore it.
Hunyuan pile!
After his horse stance has been trained to the level of entering the palace, he can practice Hunyuan Zhuang, which is specially designed to integrate body strength. As long as he starts practicing Hunyuan Zhuang, with his body full of strength at this time, he can easily reach Ming Dynasty.
Level of strength.
It's a pity that although Lin Shirong's words are good, he also has a bottom line. No matter how Lei Hu explores the cultivation method of Hunyuan Zhuang, he has no intention of personally demonstrating and explaining it.
By this time, Lei Hu understood Huang Feihong's intentions, and it was impossible to move him without some ideas.
Obviously, Huang Feihong was not unwilling to teach him the training method of Hunyuan Zhuang, but he was worried that his basic horse-stepping Zhuang had not been trained to the point of entering the palace, so he couldn't help itching to switch to Hunyuan Zhuang, and then he would not be able to practice it at all.
Stability will definitely affect your future practice.
After understanding Huang Feihong's intentions, although he was indeed very eager, he was still able to suppress this urgent thought and continue to train the horse posture according to Huang Feihong's instructions to strengthen his foundation and maybe enter the Ming Jin level in the future.
Finally, it can also play a huge role.
Huang Feihong was quite satisfied with Lei Hu's ability to exercise his temper and lay a solid foundation for the horse stance. He valued Lei Hu more and more as an outer disciple. He was very serious and responsible in his teachings on weekdays. At the same time, his requirements for Lei Hu became more and more strict.
There is no room for carelessness in the exercise process.
