The Ming Dynasty's Spokesperson

Chapter 148 Treating the symptoms but not the root cause

After Lin Tailai looked around, he saw that no one jumped out to question him again, so he was sure in advance that this wave of trials was stable.

The county and provincial examinations are different from major examinations such as the provincial and municipal examinations. They are open to the public and the names on the test papers are not clear.

The rules are all set by people, and good and bad are of the same nature. Openness has disadvantages, but it also has advantages.

For example, today, if this quarrel had not been made public, if his name appeared on the government examination list, he would definitely be scolded for being shady again.

But after having such a public quarrel, he was completely justified. He must be on the government examination list, otherwise it would be a shady case.

There were so many ingenious solutions displayed on the spot. If you can't even pass the government examination, what is this if it's not a shady plot?

Even if Magistrate Zhu no longer wants to see him, as long as he is still a bureaucrat with basic rationality, he will not be guilty of such obvious shady suspicions, because the effort is not proportional to the gain.

After all, he, Lin Tailai, is a troublemaker who has support, the ability to make trouble, and the courage to make trouble.

When Lin Tailai was walking outside the examination room, he suddenly thought of something and said loudly to Wang Yusheng:

"I heard that your Wang family in Dongshan has many business talents. It is known as the richest Wuzhong and the leader of the Dongting Merchant Gang. I must have many people who dislike me.

If you are jumping out to embarrass me today because you are filled with righteous indignation, then I advise you to follow the example of your great-grandfather Wang Wenke, be quiet in speech, concentrate on studying, and stop meddling in other people's business!

If someone instigates you to jump out, then I advise you to beat him to death when you go back! "

The Dongting Merchant Gang originated from the Dongshan and Xishan Mountains of Taihu Lake. The area along Taihu Lake is the basic base of the Dongting Merchant Gang.

Now Lin Tailai has extended his tentacles along the Xujiang River to the coast of Taihu Lake, and he has to engage in customs duties and market management. They are all businesses that pluck the hair from industry and commerce.

Therefore, it can be foreseen that there will definitely be some friction with the Dongting Merchant Gang in the future.

Unexpectedly, Wang Yusheng from the Wang family in Dongshan jumped out today, and Lin Tailai had to think more about it.

Afterwards, as soon as Lin Daguan left the dragon gate of the trial courtyard, another old man covered in silk, with gray beard and hair, and a dozen strong men blocked the way.

The old man who arrived uninvited did not even show any courtesy and said directly: "I am from Dongshan."

After only saying five words, Lin Tailai suddenly slapped his backhand and shouted directly into the old man's face.

The next moment, the old man fell on his back and hit the ground heavily. His face was visibly swollen and he was already unconscious.

Official Lin wiped his hands and cursed: "Do you really think I, Lin Tailai, won't hit the old man?

What kind of old cat or dog dares to pretend in front of me? Next time, let’s find someone who can talk! "

The cohesion of this group of people is still very strong. After the old man was beaten, the other ten strong men were not afraid and instead pressed forward. I don't know if they were Lian Jiazi.

"Who dares to be rude!" Someone shouted at this time!

Then I saw the guardians on the left and right of Lin Siguan, namely Zhang Wen and Zhang Wu, each with ten people, surrounding him from both sides.

After the Western Expedition, the hall expanded its recruitment, and the number of leaders at the level of the left and right guardians and the four kings increased from five to ten.

Therefore, when Lin Tailai travels, in addition to the Zhang brothers, he is often accompanied by about twenty people.

He yelled at the dozen or so strong men with great force: "Poke your mother's front and back doors! There are more people than there are!"

Zhang Wen asked Lin Tailai for instructions: "How to deal with these people?"

Lin Tailai waved his hand and casually ordered: "Everyone interrupts one."

As he was talking, Lin Tailai suddenly spotted Xiao Feng Menglong's father, Doctor Feng, among the crowd outside, looking at him eagerly.

It is not surprising that Doctor Feng appeared here because his son was taking the government examination.

But there were several suspected colleagues around Doctor Feng, all of whom were carrying medicine boxes and looking forward to it.

For some reason, Lin Zuiguan felt that he was too kind, so he decided to carry out his kindness to the end and changed his words:

"I, Lin Tailai, have never bullied others by relying on the power of numbers! Let's spare them this time!"

There is nothing wrong with this. Lin Tailai has never bullied others by relying on the power of numbers. Most of the time, he has used less to defeat more.

Zhang Wen immediately praised loudly and said: "It's really noble to sit in the restaurant!"

Lin Daguan left the city from Xumen and came to the entrance of Shijiaxiang Hall. In the front yard, he met Yu Gongjing, one of the Four Great Vajras.

Now that the power is expanding too fast, the other three Vajras have been sent out to take charge, leaving only Yu Gongjing to guard the headquarters.

Lin Tailai asked respectfully: "Has Lao Gao come back?"

A few days ago, Huang Xiaomei and Mrs. Fan were at war again in Mudu Town, and Lin was busy preparing for the imperial examination, so Gao Changjiang was forced to voluntarily mediate.

Yu respectfully replied: "I'm back, just in the side hall!"

Just as he was talking, Gao Changjiang also came out of the room to greet him.

Lin Tailai sat down in the National Accounting Department and asked Gao Changjiang: "How is the situation over there?

I see that you are completely unscathed, so you must have failed? "

Gao Changjiang replied enthusiastically: "Sitting in the palace is too underestimated as a military advisor!

Fortunately, this time he lived up to his mission and successfully resolved the confrontation between Huang Wuniang and Fan Zi! "

Lin Tailai said a little disbelievingly: "How did you successfully mediate?"

Gao Changjiang said calmly: "It's very simple, I called these two empresses over!

Then we sat down and had a casual chat, and we succeeded in persuading him to make peace! "

After Lin Tailai was stunned for a moment, he slapped the table and said, "Gao Changjiang! Are you telling me fantasy stories to entertain me?

If we are really called to negotiate together, even I may not be able to escape unscathed, but you can still come back intact? "

Gao Changjiang quickly shouted: "It's absolutely true, how can such a thing be false?

It's just that the location of this negotiation is quite special, it's Luziwei in the Five Maps of Thirteen Capitals. "

In today's Suzhou, most of the rural areas outside the cities and towns are marked with place names such as "du", "tu" and "wei".

Lin Tailai didn't react for a moment. Where is this? Why does it sound familiar?

Gao Changjiang waited for a while, and when he saw Lin Tailai had no response, he reminded him carelessly: "This is your home."

Lin Tailai said in confusion: "My home? Which one is my home? Which one is my home?"

Gao Changjiang continued to add: "To be more specific, it's your father's place.

I called the two empresses to your father, and then started negotiating and persuading them to make peace. "

Lin Tailai: "."

Wu County’s thirteenth capital, Wutulu, is called Wei. Isn’t that the location of your household registration?

Should we praise these two women for pretending to be virtuous and respecting their elders when meeting their fathers?

"Look, things have been settled like this." Gao Changjiang claimed the credit: "When will I, the chief accountant of the Nanhao Market Management Office, take office?"

Lin Tailai said angrily: "Don't the clubs have rules? Family members are not allowed to be involved in Jianghu affairs!"

Gao Changjiang replied neatly: "But I think the conflict between the two parties is not a political matter, but a family matter."

Lin Tailai said again: "You are treating the symptoms but not the root cause. They are just trying to calm things down for the sake of my father's face!"

Gao Changjiang responded angrily: "If I had that great ability and could cure the root cause of the conflict between the two empresses, how could you still sleep peacefully while sitting in the restaurant?"
