Xu You brought along a priceless jade wall and left in satisfaction. Before he left, he vowed that he would definitely let Yan Liang lead the troops here as soon as possible after he got back, and also promised that he would promptly transmit the situation of Yan Liang sending troops to Bo Ling with a carrier pigeon, then sent the flying horses to Galleon.
Guo Jia sent him off and immediately went back to the tent to ask Gongsun Xu who was leisurely sipping his tea: "Zi Min, you actually informed Xu You of such an important plan to surround and support him. Wouldn't it be dangerous if he suddenly turned around and attacked?"
"Absolutely not!" Gongsun Xu shook his head and laughed: "Feng Xiao is overthinking it, I already have a plan for this, Xu You cannot escape from my grasp!"
"Oh?" Guo Jia looked at Gongsun Xu suspiciously, when a thought suddenly flashed across his mind, and he anxiously asked: "Are you planning to activate the Mo Sect?"
"Haha, that's right! Feng Xiao's mind is truly sharp! " Gongsun Xu praised his and called out to his, "Bingmei, please come out and tell Feng Xiao about your plan."
The curtain to the back opened, and Mo Bingmei, dressed in black male attire, walked out quickly.
"Greetings, Mo Xiaoniangzi." Guo Jia cupped his hands in greeting. Mo Bingmei would definitely be someone inside Gongsun Xu's room, and since he had an engagement with Gongsun Rui, they were all on the same side. Therefore, Guo Jia acted very casually.
"Young Master Guo, there's no need to be so polite." Mo Bingmei replied indifferently, she walked to Gongsun Xu's side and sat down.
Gongsun Xu poured a cup of tea for Mo Bingmei, and handed it over to him with a smile: "Rub your throat, and then tell Feng Xiao about your plan."
Lan Lan crept behind the curtain and peeked out through the crack. Seeing Gongsun Xu personally pour Mo Bingmei a cup of tea, the expression on her face immediately fluctuated.
Mo Bingmei gently nodded her head in agreement, received the teacup and drank a small mouthful of tea in her hands, then softly spoke to the curtain: "Lan Lan, don't eavesdrop!"
Lan Lan was shocked, her face immediately flushed red, and she anxiously turned to leave.
Gongsun Xu laughed but did not say anything, maybe it was an accident that he knew Lan Lan, but the lady's intention to get close was clear. The reason why Gongsun Xu did not expose this matter, was because he wanted to see what Lan Lan actually wanted to do, and at the same time, wanted to secretly investigate the true identity of this woman.
After Mo Bingmei arrived, she looked at Lan Lan closely, making it impossible for Lan Lan to get close to him easily. Even if Mo Bingmei poured tea for them, Mo Bingmei would check ahead of time, afraid that Lan Lan would do something. However, Mo Bingmei did not expel Lan Lan, but rather brought her to her side.
Mo Bingmei tilted her ears and listened for a while, only then did she notice that Lan Lan had already gone far away. She softly said, "Xu You's nephew generation is also greedy for money and sex. My people have been keeping an eye on them for a long time already."
"Scram!"
While Mo Bingmei was narrating her plan, in a casino in Qinghe County, Xu You's son Xu Hao and his nephew Xu Yang led a group of servants to push open the gatekeeper door and brazenly entered the casino.
The sturdy casino manager waved his hand to signal his men to move away. He then cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Young masters, there's no need to be angry."
Xu Yang shouted angrily: "You unscrupulous thing, you don't even kneel down and greet us when you see us? Come on, destroy this casino for me! "
A dozen or so servants answered his call, grabbed their things and started to randomly smash them. The gamblers all scattered and ran, and the scene instantly became chaotic.
The casino manager did not stop them. Instead, he retreated a few steps and watched from the sidelines.
At this time, a black-clothed man came close to the casino's storekeeper's ear and whispered: "Shopkeeper, should we show them some of the power?"
"No need!" The shopkeeper shook his head, stared at Xu Hao and Xu Yang and sneered: "Let them smash! The more vicious the smash, the better! Xu Ziyuan has this kind of son and nephew, they are really not far from death! "
"Young master, look! That bastard is actually secretly insulting young master!" A lean man who was standing beside Xu Hao suddenly pointed at the casino manager and shouted.
Xu Hao quickly turned his head, just in time to see the casino manager smiling at him with a trace of contempt. He immediately became furious, raised his hand and pointed: "Teach that brat a lesson!"
Seven or eight servants rushed forward like a swarm of bees, pressing down on the casino's owner and giving him a good beating.
The lackeys in the casino wanted to step forward to help but were stopped by the shopkeeper. They stood to the side and glared at Xu Hao and the others.
Not long after, the casino manager was beaten black and blue, and blood was coming out of his mouth and nose.
Just then, the lean man once again spoke into Xu Hao's ears: "Young master, if we continue fighting, I might even lose my life! "It doesn't matter if you're dead, it's meaningless if you can't get the money."
"Stop for now!" Xu Hao seemed to trust this person, and upon hearing his persuasion, he immediately ordered the beating to be stopped.
When the servants retreated to the side of the Xu Hao brothers, the entire casino was already in a mess.
"Listen up, if you want to do business in the Qinghe County, you must pay me a sum of money, or else" Xu Hao pointed at the casino manager and roared angrily, "This guy will end up like this! How dare a newly-opened casino refuse to pay me the protection fee! Listen up, brat. I give you three hundred slots to deliver to my house within three days. If not, the next time I come, I will burn your dog's nest! Did you hear that? "
The casino manager struggled to catch his breath and weakly nodded his head.
"Haha, if you still dare to not be sensible, I will make you feel worse than death!" Xu Hao laughed complacently to the sky, and waved his hand: "Go, go to the next place!"
The lean man quickly led the way with a flattering smile on his face. Only when he lowered his head would there be a flash of contempt in his eyes.
"Manager, are you alright?"
"Hurry up and bandage your wounds. Hurry up and get me the cloth!"
"Liu San, go and get a physician!"
After Xu Hao and the others left, the casino manager was immediately surrounded by a group of people.
"All of you, shut up!" The casino manager struggled to shout and everyone immediately fell silent. He instructed softly, "Quick, carry me to prefectural governor's mansion to seek an audience with Madam!"
A few robust men hastily carried a wide wooden board over, laid down a thick mattress, and carried the casino's owner out the back door. Then, they walked towards prefectural governor's mansion, who was not far away.
The Xu Hao brothers did not know anything about this. Under the lead of the lean man, they went over to the shops to blackmail them. The ones who gave out the rich were safe and sound, even if they resisted or gave away too little money, they would be beaten up, the shops would also be smashed into pieces, and it was unknown how many people were cursing the Xu Hao brothers in their hearts.
After walking through a dozen stores, Xu Hao looked at the large and small bags held by the servants. He was extremely fond of them, and smiled towards the lean man: "Chen Da, you sure have a good job here.
A few days ago, Xu Hao had coincidentally gotten to know the Chen Da and discovered that he was extremely quick-witted. As a result, Xu Hao hadn't visited many brothels recently, and instead took Chen Da for a stroll every day. This made him earn a lot of money, causing Xu Hao to view the Chen Da in a new light.
Chen Da was ecstatic, he quickly kneeled on the ground and kowtowed, "Many thanks to Young Master for the respect! Please rest assured young master, I will definitely get you more treasures! "
"Haha, get up! Although you do not know how to learn, but you really match my temper. You think you can think of something like 'protection fee'! " Xu Hao reached out to help Chen Da up, and actually patted his shoulder.
This action immediately attracted the jealous gazes of the other servants, Young Master Xu Hao had never been so friendly with a servant before!
"That's fine, as long as young master likes it." The Chen Da explained with a flattering smile, but in his heart he secretly thought that General Gongsun Xu was truly omnipotent.
Xu Hao turned his head and asked his cousin: "About how many are there?"
Xu Yang laughed as he replied, "At least eight hundred marks!"
Xu Hao laughed and said: "What I've received today is not bad. Come, let's go to the Warm Jade Restaurant and enjoy ourselves! Chen Da, don't hesitate to play with as many girls as you want today! "
Chen Da thanked him repeatedly, his face full of gratitude and anticipation.
Xu Hao laughed: "You're not bad, later on, I will let you meet Master Father. If he thinks you're not bad too, how about I take you in as a servant again?"
"Many thanks Young Noble! If I can really become your servant, I will repay you for your kindness. "
Xu Hao laughed proudly, and after laughing, he waved his hand: "Let's go and find some fun!"
A group of people swaggered through the city, heading for the largest brothel, the Warm Jade Pavilion.
Not long after, the casino manager was carried to the back door of the prefectural governor's mansion, the servants of the house hurried to report this matter to Lady Liu.
Mrs Liu was admiring the flowers and sipping tea in the back garden, after hearing the news she was stunned, and asked in surprise: "What did you say? Someone actually smashed the gambling den? "
"Yes, Madam. Shopkeeper Liu was beaten to the brink of death and is currently begging for an audience."
"How dare you hit my relatives!" Mrs Liu flew into a rage and shouted: "Quickly bring Liu Xi in, I want to personally question him!"
Not long after, the casino manager, Liu Xi, was carried in front of Mrs Liu. When he saw Mrs Liu, he immediately began to wail.
Mrs Liu scolded: "What a useless thing, even the shop was destroyed! "Why aren't you telling me what's going on!"
In the end, he explained, "It's not that I don't want to take action, but that Xu You is the most highly regarded person in the envoy. If he had said a few bad words in front of the envoy, then that would have been bad.
"It's actually Xu Ziyuan's nephew again! "How unruly!" Mrs Liu's face was filled with anger. She nodded and said, "You've done quite well in this matter. You should go down and recuperate. I will give you justice!"
"Thank you Madam!"
"Men, invite Guard Liu over!"
