Chapter 311 Two into Jiaozhou (4)

Seeing that they were not finished acting, Wang Sheng was also a little upset and said, "Okay, County Magistrate Zhou and all the parents and officials, the scene is enough to say this. It doesn't matter if you continue. Don't you really think that after you say this, we really believe that you don't know that the Wang brothers have returned to Jiaozhou City."

After hearing this, the few people were embarrassed and couldn't speak awkwardly. Even Master Kong, who had always been good at dealing with the scene, felt a little open-minded. He was still thinking that this group of people was too ignorant and didn't even know the rules. So Master Kong also made up his mind and said, "Mr. Wang, since Mr. Wang has already explained everything, what's the matter with such a man? He will never be asking for punishment."

Wang Sheng smiled and said, "If you know what the Wang brothers did in Jiaozhou City, you will understand what we have come to Jiaozhou City."

Zhou Wenhuai and others were also stunned when they heard this. Although they knew that the Wang brothers had returned to Jiaozhou, no one cared about what the Wang brothers had done. However, since Wang Sheng had said that there must be a story in it, so they all looked at Wang Sheng and did not dare to answer the conversation. Only Kong Ye asked with courage: "I hope to hear it carefully."

Only then did Wang Sheng collude with the bandits of the Wang family and catch Wang Qing and threaten Wang Gui to poison the entire village. Therefore, he sent a team to Jiaozhou City to kill the Wang family and annihilate the bandits in Ciming Temple, etc., and talk about it in detail. Although the Wang family did not appear in both places, the three servants of Wang Huo and brought all the dead bandit leaders as evidence.

After hearing Wang Sheng's words, Zhou Wenhuai and others' expressions became increasingly ugly. If the Wang brothers just returned to Jiaozhou City to settle down, it would be easy to say, but the Wang brothers actually took Jiaozhou City as a base and planned to defeat overseas Chinese, it would be troublesome. Not only did overseas Chinese enter the city to kill Wang's house with sufficient reasons, but the officials in Jiaozhou City may not be able to lose their relationship. No wonder overseas Chinese want to go to Jiaozhou City to raise an army to question.

At the same time, everyone greeted all the women of the Wang family in their hearts. They saw that their brothers were pitiful, so they were allowed to stay in Jiaozhou City. However, they did not expect that they would do such a thing. Didn’t this implicate the people in the city? Fortunately, this group of overseas Chinese were even more powerful and defeated the Wang family’s plans. If the Wang family brothers really succeeded, overseas Chinese came from Qingdao and would have to really wipe out Jiaozhou City. Therefore, when several people thought about this, they were not only shocked and sweated.

Zhou Wenhuai had a bitter face and said, "Mr. Wang, we really don't know about this. If we knew that the Wang brothers did this, we would never ignore it."

Li Xingfang and Liu Yuan also hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, we really don't know about this matter. Please trust us by Mr. Wang." As he said that, he almost started to cry.

Wang Shengdao: "I also believe that you don't know what the Wang brothers do. If you know, you will definitely stop them."

After hearing this, Zhou Wenhuai and others were overjoyed, nodded repeatedly and said, "That's it."

Wang Sheng said again: "We came to Jiaozhou City this time, and we did not want to hold you responsible. However, this time we did not catch the Wang brothers. I think they also heard the news and fled far away from home. However, the Wang brothers would never be willing to give up just like this. They would definitely gather other bandits or other forces to seize Wangjiazhai again. This Jiaozhou City is too close to Wangjiazhai Village, so we had to take precautions early."

Zhou Wenhuai also nodded and said, "Mr. Wang's worries are not unreasonable, but please rest assured. After your attack, the Wang brothers must be frightened. They dare to come back there. And even if the Wang brothers come back, we will never spare them again, and we will definitely arrest them and will never indulge them again."

Wang Sheng shook his head and said, "The last time we reached an agreement, but the result was that you broke our agreement first. Why do you let us believe your promises again?"

After hearing this, Zhou Wenhuai and others felt that their faces were not very tired, but they couldn't say anything. After all, Wang Sheng was right. It was because he did not respect his promise that he had made such a big leak. Why should others believe in himself?

However, at this time, Kong Ye heard Wang Sheng's unspoken voice and knew that Wang Sheng must have his own conditions. He said so many things just now, but in fact, he was about advancing and retreating, and he used the words to stop Zhou Wenhuai and others, and had to agree to the other party's conditions. Therefore, Kong Ye spoke: "So, according to Mr. Wang's opinion, how should Mr. Wang believe us?"

Wang Sheng nodded, and when it comes to this, he doesn't have to be polite, saying: "We have three conditions. First, Jiaozhou County must formally report to indicate that the Wang brothers are guilty and paint pictures. In the various parts of Shandong, we want to arrest the Wang brothers. As for how to operate the procedures here, I don't need to teach you, don't tell me that you have no choice."

Kong Ye looked at Zhou Wenhuai and saw that the county master nodded slightly to him. He immediately understood and said, "Okay, this matter is feasible. I can replace Lord Tang Zun, and promise sir."

Wang Shengdao: "Secondly, this time the Wang brothers colluded with bandits to invade Wangjiazhai. Although the bandits were defeated by us, they were not killed. There will inevitably be future troubles. In addition, as far as we know, there are many bandits in Shandong. In this Jiaozhou area, there are several bandits. These are the future troubles of Wangjiazhai. Therefore, we want to wipe out all bandits in Jiaozhou area without the use of one soldier from the Jiaozhou government, but the Jiaozhou government must provide us with convenience and can be easy to act."

Kong Ye looked at Zhou Wenhuai again, and saw that the county master was communicating with the other two people, and his expression was quite hesitant. Kong Ye was also quite anxious, but in front of Wang Sheng and others present, it was difficult to make it clear. At this moment, Zhou Wenhuai looked at him and nodded slightly. When Zhou Wenhuai saw it, he hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded, saying, "Okay, I can agree to this one."

Wang Sheng said again: "The third thing is that we need to set up an office in Jiaozhou City. On the one hand, we should strengthen the connection between us and the Jiaozhou government to prevent misunderstandings from happening with each other; on the other hand, we should also let us understand the things in Jiaozhou City in a timely manner to prevent similar things from recurring."

After hearing this, Zhou Wenhuai turned his attention to Master Kong again, wanting to see Master Kong's attitude, but seeing that Master Kong's expression was uncertain, he was hesitant. It turned out that Kong Ye thought that the first two conditions proposed by Wang Sheng were feasible, so he gave the Wang brothers a charge. Wen Tong compiled them. For the government, it was familiar with the way and could come with his hands. Moreover, the county officials who had annoyed the behavior of the Wang brothers, so there was no need to be disgusted.

The voluntary efforts of overseas Chinese to suppress bandits and robbers are even more good things that the Jiaozhou government has been seeking. If overseas Chinese wipe out the bandits in the Jiaozhou area, of course it would be good, and the place would be much more peaceful. On the contrary, overseas Chinese suffered losses from the bandits' families and would not suffer any losses to the Jiaozhou government. Kong Ye did not think that the time travelers actually wanted to take the opportunity to control the villages around Jiaozhou, because the county government did not go to the countryside, which was a practice in the officialdom since the Ming Dynasty. The county government had no idea of ​​controlling the grassroots level at all, but gave it to the local township Kun Baojia. As for whether these people were in charge of the matter and how to manage the matter, the county government did not care about it.

But it was a bit embarrassing to set up an office in Jiaozhou City. After all, this is in Jiaozhou City. If this group of overseas Chinese make any trouble in the city, it will be troublesome. If you can't control it, you can't afford to provoke it, and you can't afford to provoke it. What should you do?

Because I didn't listen to Master Kong's advice last time, and it caused such a big trouble, Zhou Wenhuai did not dare to underestimate Master Kong's opinions anymore. Now seeing that Master Kong was not sure of his idea, Zhou Wenhuai naturally could not make up his mind, but he could not be disheartened. So Zhou Wenhuai said: "This third point is of great importance. Please let us discuss it, okay?"

Wang Sheng nodded and said, "Yes, but there is one thing I must remind Guixian that we must set up this office, and the location has been selected, which is Wang Kefu's residence. We see that the mansion is good. Anyway, no one lives in it now, so it is just our office."

After hearing this, Zhou Wenhuai and others looked very ugly and they all stood up and went to the back hall to discuss. In fact, there was nothing to discuss. Wang Sheng had made it clear that this office must be established. The result of Zhou Wenhuai and others' discussion was only to require overseas Chinese to respect the laws and regulations in the city and not to do anything at will. In addition, Kong Ye was appointed as the contact person for both parties, so Wang Sheng naturally agreed.

When talking about this step, everything that should be said was said and everything that should be done was done, so Wang Sheng stood up and said goodbye. Zhou Wenhuai and others hurriedly asked Master Kong to see him off on his behalf and accompanied them to Wang Kefu's residence. Because Wang Kefu's residence was closed by the government, this procedure still needs to be completed.

Kong Ye accompanied Wang Sheng and others to the county government office, joined Yang Rui's army, and went to Wang Kefu's residence. Kong Ye tore off the seal posted on the gate and let them enter the house.

It was only after everyone entered the house that although the body was removed by the government, the house was chaotic. All the cabinets and drawers were opened, all the items were thrown all over the floor, and even two door panels were removed. It turned out that when the servants searched the house, they certainly would not be honest. They rummaged through boxes and cabinets and searched for gold and silver, which naturally made the house full of chaos. Kong Ye was also a little embarrassed when he saw it.
