County government office, backyard.

Wang Lei and Guo Jia sat opposite each other, and Du Ji was sitting next to him.

At this time, Du Ji was counting the gift lists sent by the gentry of Wuji County one by one. After Guo Jia spread the news that the bandits of the Black Mountain were about to attack Wuji County again, the gentry and businessmen in Wuji County were frightened and came to the county government to visit Wang Lei, giving Wang Lei money, armor, weapons, etc., and asked if Wang Lei could block the bandits of the Black Mountain?

For the merchants in Wuji County, Wang Lei's value lies in his blocking an attack from the Black Mountain bandits. With one success, the merchants would rather lose money to eliminate disasters and spend a little money to allow Wang Lei to continue to resist and become their first line of defense.

Even if Wang Lei did not stop him, the merchants only lost a little money. Or even if the news was fake, the money given to Wang Lei by merchant Macon and the food they gave to him could make a good relationship and establish a relationship with Wang Lei.

If there is no harm in every benefit, the businessman will naturally not give up on the opportunity.

After Du Ji finished the inventory, he said excitedly with joy: "Sir, this time, the spread of news from Fengxiao is very effective. I counted that the harvested food was nearly 10,000 stones, nearly one million yuan, and some armor and weapons, which are enough for us to equip a team of thousands of people. Unfortunately, they are all infantry now, and there are no war horses and cavalry yet."

Wang Lei smiled and said, "Brother Bo Hou, this is just the beginning. Don't worry. If I give me half a year, I will definitely be able to form a strong team. Only then will it be considered a real foothold."

Guo Jia also said: "What is missing at the moment is time, and you need to have enough time to strengthen yourself."

Wang Lei changed his tone and said, "It's a pity that Zhen Yan hasn't come yet."

Guo Jia didn't care at all and chuckled: "Zhen Yan is here, and the adults can get a lot of money and food. But if Zhen Yan is not here, we still have plans to deal with it. Could it be that the adults are soft-hearted?"

Wang Lei chuckled and shook his head, saying lightly: "If the Zhen family does not take the initiative to surrender, it will be self-destruction. No wonder I am. If I want to control Wuji County, there will be no one who dissatisfied. As the number one business in Wuji County, the Zhen family has a family capital of over 100 million and a lot of money. I believe that Zhang Yan is willing to cooperate with us. In the face of interests, the enemy can also be transformed into friends."

Guo Jia smiled, his eyes full of expectations.

Du Ji did not agree with Wang Lei and Guo Jia's plan, but he felt very good when he counted the money and got cramps in his hands, so he made a default.

"grown ups!"

Uncle Fu strode and reported: "Sir, Zhen Yan came to the door to ask for a meeting."

"It's actually here!"

Wang Lei smiled and ordered, "Please go to the living room, I'll arrive later."

After Uncle Fu left, Wang Lei had no intention of leaving.

Du Ji asked, "Zhen Yan is here to visit, why don't you go to greet him?"

Wang Lei raised a smile on his lips and said slowly: "Zhen Yan came to the door and polished his patience to let him know the identities of both parties. If he didn't let him hurt, he always thought I was an ignorant little baby."

Guo Jia nodded, and nodded in his heart.

Du Jixin said that you are a baby county magistrate, but your style and age are seriously inconsistent.

A quarter of an hour passed in a flash, and Wang Lei slowly walked towards the living room.

Zhen Yan was waiting in the living room. At first, he thought Wang Lei would come to see him immediately, but after waiting for a while, he found that Wang Lei had not arrived yet, and he felt a little impatient. The head of the Zhen family, whose family has a wealth of over 100 million yuan, was about to shock the people in Wuji County, but he had to be angry here. You can imagine his mood. He was angry at first, but slowly, his heart became cold again.

This baby county magistrate is really amazing. He has a thick-skinned and has a skillful means of suppressing people. He is not like a young man of ten years old. He gives Zhen Yan an old fox.

After Zhen Yan sat quietly and thought, he let go of the contempt in his heart and his heart gradually calmed down.

The sound of footsteps came, and Wang Lei strode.

Wang Lei had a strong smile on his face, as if he had seen his old friend who had been for many years, and said enthusiastically: "He came to visit, but the official was delayed because of some private matters, so the leader of the Zhen family had been waiting for a long time. I'm sorry."

Zhen Yan also replied with a smile: "Wait for a while, it won't be a problem."

He smiled and cursed the little fox in his heart.

Your method is too ordinary, I used it back then.

When the two of them sat down, Wang Lei asked, "Is there anything wrong with the head of the Zhen family coming to the door in person?"

Zhen Yan took out a piece of folded paper from his sleeve and sent it respectfully to Wang Lei and said, "The Black Mountain bandits threatened to attack Wuji County, and they were arrogant. As a member of Wuji County, the Zhen family had no choice. The Zhen family was willing to fund the adults 500,000 yuan, 500 sets of armor, 500 steel knives, 10,000 arrows, and a few grains."

Wang Lei looked at it carefully and was surprised.

This time, the Zhen family was definitely bleeding, which gave him great benefits. Wang Lei put away the white paper, looked grateful, and said with a smile: "When will the head of the family be sent?"

Zhen Yan's face turned red, he didn't believe him!

However, when Zhen Yan thought that the person in front of him was shameless, his anger dissipated and replied: "Everything will be delivered within half a month. Food and money will be delivered first, weapons and armor must be purchased, and the time will be postponed a little."

Wang Lei shouted ok and praised: "I am happy that there is a person like the head of Zhen in Wuji County who serves the country and the people. Please rest assured that I will definitely train a army of battles in a short time to defeat the bandits in the Black Mountains."

"Don't……"

As soon as Zhen Yan said that, he immediately regretted it.

Wang Lei smiled and asked, "The Master Zhen family does not want to wipe out the black bandits? Could it be that there are exchanges between you?"

Zhen Yan shook his head quickly and said with a serious look: "Sir, the Zhen family has absolutely no contact with the Black Mountain bandits. I say to stop it, but I hope the county magistrate will consider it carefully. After all, the Black Mountain bandits will not take a year or two."

Wang Lei smiled and said, "Thank you, the head of the Zhen family, for your concern, I know."

Zhen Yan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and thought it was very dangerous. He was not worried about Wang Lei's safety, but he really didn't want Wang Lei to send troops to attack the Black Mountain bandits. Although Zhen Yan smiled and talked to Wang Lei, he was reluctant to die in his heart. Zhen Yan was worried that Wang Lei would go to war, and the money and food needed to go to war was huge, and he would find the Zhen family again at that time. What he was worried about was the money of the Zhen family.

Zhen Yan's work was completed and he immediately stood up to say goodbye.

Wang Lei sent Zhen Yan away and returned to the backyard with a smile. He showed the orders sent by Zhen Yan to Guo Jia and Du Ji. Guo Jia smiled and said, "Sir, with the money, food and weapons sent by Zhen Family and Wuji County, we can do a big battle within half a year and form our own strength."

Wang Lei nodded and ordered: "The Zhen family has surrendered. The news that the Black Mountain bandits are about to attack Wuji County will be suppressed. It will not be beneficial to us if the impact is great."

Guo Jia returned and said, "I understand!"

Next, Guo Jia began to process the spread of the news.

The government came out to clarify. In one day, the news was completely controlled and no one talked about it. After careful consideration, the person who was interested understood what was going on. After receiving the news, Zhen Yan gasped.

Obviously, this is for the Zhen family.

The staff member said with a look of gratitude, "The head of the family, this time the rumors are directed at the head of the family. If the head of the family does not take the initiative to show weakness, the county magistrate may do something more extraordinary. This baby county magistrate is a person who uses any means and must deal with it carefully."
