    (PS: Please recommend, collect and reward.) The next day.  Liu Xu took Wang Meng and Jiang Maocai to the street envoy's office again, carrying fifty taels of silver and ten taels of gold.  When meeting Chen Jide this time, Liu Xu clearly felt that his attitude was somewhat different.  The last two times he had sat behind the desk to receive him, clearly showing a superior-to-subordinate attitude, but this time he sat on a seat next to the tea table specially designed for entertaining guests. After Liu Xu came in, he  He kindly let him sit down at the bottom of the table and served him tea.  Liu Xu was already slightly aware of the sudden change in his attitude. On the surface, he pretended to be flattered. When he sat down and the waiter served him tea, he stood up slightly to show his humility.  After the boy went down, Chen Jide asked slowly: "I heard that you people from Wuhoupu in Qinglongfang went to the dock to hunt down bandits yesterday? Is this possible?" When Liu Xu heard this, he thought in his heart  Sure enough, he quickly replied: "Yes, General, my subordinates came today to report yesterday's incident to you, General. That group of bandits were mainly rebels from the Chu region, and they came to our Han region to cause trouble and oppress us."  Good people do bad things. Yesterday, some honest people in our Qinglongfang were extorted and severely beaten by them at the pier. They were seriously injured. The family members of this good citizen came to our Wuhou Pu for help, and my subordinates took people to the pier.  While conducting an investigation, who knew that this group of bandits did not take us, the Marquis of Wu, seriously at all, and did not say anything sarcastic. In the end, they threatened to attack us with knives. We defended ourselves, and finally annihilated the group and captured a total of  My subordinates have brought almost 100,000 yuan of stolen money. Please take a look at it, General." With that, Liu Xu held the package in both hands and stood up and handed it to him respectfully.  Among them, there are fifty taels of silver and ten taels of gold, with a total value of 178,000 yuan, of course more than 100,000 yuan.  The reason for underreporting is of course to leave room for Chen Jide to enrich his own pockets. After all, he killed more than a dozen people. When Liu Xu thought about it, Chen Jide would have taken some of it as dirty silver and turned it over to public funds. He said less about the hidden silver.  , of course the amount handed over will be less. This is a tip of bribery, as it has been in ancient and modern times.  After Chen Jide was slightly dazed, he reached out to take the package with some reserve, and placed it on the tea table seemingly casually.  To be honest, he didn't expect Liu Xu to pay him so much money at once. One hundred thousand dollars was equivalent to the sum of all the monthly payments from his Wuhou shops. This was really a big deal for him.  It was an unexpected surprise.  Of course, if he waits until he knows the true amount of gold and silver in the package, he will definitely be pleasantly surprised.  After coughing dryly, he continued: "I heard that there were more than a dozen gangsters in yesterday's group, and they were all extremely vicious. Did your people suffer any casualties?" "Thank you, General, for your concern. Our people had no casualties, only a few."  I suffered some minor injuries." "Oh, is that true?" Chen Jide looked at Liu Xu in surprise.  Yesterday, he learned about what Liu Xu had done from the housekeeper. He only said that the people from Wuhoupu in Qinglongfang had killed a group of Chu land desperadoes entrenched at the dock, but he didn't know that Liu Xu had done this.  Are there any casualties on Liu Xu's side, but in his opinion, there must be casualties on Liu Xu's side. The Wuhou in Wuhoupu are originally some ruffians, so he is certainly not optimistic about their combat effectiveness. It would be great to be comparable to those desperadoes.  .  "What's more, there are more than a dozen desperadoes in that group, and the total number of Wuhou on Wuhoupu's side in Qinglongfang is only a dozen. The numbers of both sides are equal. Even if Wuhou's side wins, it will be a miserable victory in his opinion.  Liu Xu replied calmly: "Yes, General. Although the gangsters yesterday were very ferocious, our brothers in Wuhoupu are not vegetarians. We all have some skills, plus we work together and are sincere."  Together, we quickly killed the gangsters without losing a single brother." Chen Jide was somewhat shocked. Prince Xing's Mansion has been relatively peaceful in recent years, and the Wuhous in Wuhoupu usually bullied them.  The good people at the bottom really have no choice but to retreat if they really want to face off against those hordes of desperadoes.  What's more, he learned from the housekeeper that the gangsters from the Chu region had a bad reputation on the other side of the river and had accumulated countless lives under their command, so he asked the other side of the riverside inspection department to show courtesy.  Visible ferocity.  But now Liu Xu and his group are confronting them, not only killing them all, but there is not a single dead person on their side, which is too surprising.  Could it be that the people under him are much more powerful than those desperadoes?  Chen Jide suddenly felt a little awe-inspiring.  Those Wuhou are so powerful, but they all seem to be more convinced by the seventeen-year-old pretty boy in front of them.  Liu Xu, at such a young age, could be so ruthless and capable, which made Chen Jide feel a little wary in his heart.  The reason why he was so polite to Liu this timeXu, the subordinate, was afraid because of this.  Those were the lives of more than a dozen desperadoes.  After pondering for a moment, Chen Jide said: "You did a good job in this matter. As the commander-in-chief of Wuhoupu, you should make the decision for the people of this village. Those gangsters deserved their death." Liu Xuyao  What he said was what he said, and he quickly took the opportunity to say: "To be honest, general, my subordinates have already inquired. I heard that these gangsters had been under the care of Navy General Fang Yongxiang before, and the place where we fought yesterday was at Wanghai Tower. It is said that  It's General Fang Yongxiang's property. My subordinates are afraid that General Fang may make things difficult for us in the future." Chen Jide waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I have some friendship with General Fang. I'll just say hello to him later.  Yesterday's fight at Wanghai Tower was a bit excessive, so you should come to him today to apologize. Well, bring my name card with you later. " "Thank you, General," Liu Xu was secretly happy.  , with Chen Jide¡¯s name card, it would be much easier to go to the door to establish a relationship.  Chen Jide nodded with a look of great relief and said: "I really saw you right. I have heard a little bit about what you have done in Qinglongfang these days. You have done a good job. In the future, you will be handed over to Qinglongfang."  I'm relieved to have you in charge. Come with me." Chen Jide stood up and walked towards the desk over there. Liu Xu quickly followed, and at the same time he had guessed something and became a little excited.  .  Sure enough, after Chen Jide walked to his desk, he picked up a letter of appointment and a copper waist plate from the table and handed them to him, saying: "This is my letter of appointment officially appointing you as the Commander-in-Chief of Wuhou Pu Wuhou in Qinglongfang."  In addition to the waist badge, there is also a brand new uniform and saber, take them with you when you leave later." Liu Xu quickly pretended to be extremely excited and knelt forward to take the letter of appointment and waist badge, making a gesture of tears of gratitude.  He said: "Subordinate, thank you General for your cultivation. From now on, as long as I have a destiny, I will go through fire and water without hesitation." Chen Jide nodded with satisfaction and said: "It's good if you can remember my cultivation for you, and work hard in the future.  I will never treat you badly." "Yes, I will work hard to serve you, general." "Okay, get up." Liu Xu stayed with Chen Jide for half an hour this time.  During this period, Chen Jide asked in detail about yesterday's "bandit suppression" process. Of course, Liu Xu would not tell the truth, but except for the sneak attack on his side and the subsequent raid on the bandit's den, as well as the person Amu, the middle part  But he told the truth.  Among them was Wang Meng's killing performance.  When he mentioned Wang Meng, Chen Jide showed a hint of surprise.  Wang Meng was previously the guard commander of General Xiao Lixing, the general in the middle, and had a reputation for bravery. He was later demoted because he severely beat Liang Hongsheng, the general in the right. Chen Jide had met him a few times.  It's just that he had always been afraid of Liang Hongsheng before, but he didn't take care of Wang Meng. He didn't take the initiative to ask which Wuhou shop he was assigned to, and directly handed it over to Xu Yi, so as not to make things difficult for him, and Quan didn't know.  this matter.  The same thing happened this time. Even if Liu Xu mentioned Wang Meng, he didn't ask Wang Meng too much. He just praised Liu Xu and gave some encouragement before sending Liu Xu away.  In Chen Jide's view, the reason why Liu Xu's side succeeded in yesterday's fight was entirely because of Wang Meng, a fierce man. For a while, he felt less fearful of Liu Xu, and of course, he also paid less attention to him.
