Chapter 115 Suppression
Xu Sancai was kicked directly, hitting the corner of the table, and a big hole broke on his forehead, blood flowing all over his face. He thought he had found a savior to live, but he didn't expect that Xu Tong, the uncle of his family, didn't know him at all.
The blood was blocked with eyes, and the forehead was even more painful, but Xu Sancai dared not resent the uncle. He just lay on the ground, sobbed and cried, and hurriedly revealed his identity, "Uncle, my nephew's grandfather Xu Youde, is the grandfather of the third room..."
When Xu Sancai was imprisoned, he called himself Xu Tong's nephew. Although Gao Jin didn't take it seriously, he also asked. No one in Hekou Fort knew whether Xu Sancai and Xu Tong were related. He only knew that the Xu family had moved from Shenmu Fort two generations ago.
Now listening to Xu Sancai's words, Gao Jin realized that Xu Sancai's grandfather was the illegitimate son of the third wife of the Xu family. He could not get into the family tree, so he was driven to the remote area of Hekoubao to settle down. If he really wanted to be considered as a senior, he would really be Xu Tong's nephew.
However, Xu Tong didn't even want to recognize this relative, and there was no need for Gao Jin to say anything. Instead, he became even more angry. Xu Sancai reported that the house had not been completely finished, but Xu Tong kicked him up and his teeth were broken. This kick directly made him confused and even more painful.
"What a shameless thief, he dared to slander my Xu family."
Xu Tong cursed angrily, the Xu family has great business, he is the head of the eldest house, and there are many poor relatives in the Xu family in Shenmu Fort. If everyone looks for him, his family will be dragged down. What's more, the ancestor Xu Sancai was the illegitimate son of the Grand Master of the Third House. It is not an exaggeration to say that the remaining evil is left to death. It was already the Xu family's kindness that he had not drowned in the toilet, let alone promised a property in Hekou Fort.
Unexpectedly, he had a big insect like Gao Jin and wanted to use the name of the Xu family as a raft. Xu Tong wanted to kill Xu Sancai more than Gao Jin at this time, but he had a very happy banquet just now, so it was difficult to see blood easily, so he had to leave some face for Gao Jin.
"I told you to laugh at me. I never thought that my Xu family would have such a slut. Gao Baihu is worried. This person and the two thieves who are traitors in the family, I will help you settle it."
Xu Tong had asked Gao Jin to send someone to Shenmu County before, naturally to make things difficult for Gao Jin. However, he never thought that Xu Sancai had something to do with his Xu family. If Gao Jin was sent to Shenmu County, the guy shouted that he was his nephew and would not mention the scandal of the Xu family back then. Although Gao Jin could not fall into trouble, he would have to be covered in fishy clothes.
Xu Tong, who thought about this, couldn't help but sigh in secret that Gao Jin was so skillful about his work. He was obviously the three major families who were slandered by Gao Jin as a thief, and he had to finish Gao Jin.
"Then I'll have a lot of money. Oh, by the way, my grandfather, this person has little assets in his family. I think it was also a property of the Xu family back then, but now it has returned to the original owner."
Seeing Xu Tong say this, Gao Jin naturally was willing to spend money, so he asked Chen Sheng to go out and brought back a plate of silver coins. Although it was not as much as before, it was only more than 200 taels, which made Xu Tong feel more satisfied.
When Xu Sancai heard the conversation between Gao Jin and Xu Tong, he felt cold. He never expected that Xu Tong would collude with Gao Jin and wanted to kill him. It was obvious that this uncle shouldn't have taken the opportunity to be the exception of Gao Jin!
"You are kind to me, nephew."
Faced with the money delivered to the door, Xu Tong took it away without hesitation. It just so happened that Shenmu County also needed to handle some points. A few dozen taels were enough. There were still a lot of them left in the 200 taels. "Since he is a big family in the fort, he thinks that the family has a large population, so he will not eliminate the roots..."
"Thank you for your reminder. It's just that this is the case of tying bandits. The heads of the three families are not aware of it. Besides, so many people are sent to the county, so it's not easy for the county master to do it!"
Gao Jin doesn't like to kill indiscriminately, not to mention that in his eyes, population is resources and wealth. How could he easily send dozens of people from the Xu family and the three families to kill them?
"It's still my nephew who thinks carefully."
After being reminded by Gao Jin, Xu Tong remembered that although the county magistrate of Shenmu County was a decoration, he only made money, but he was afraid that it would be difficult to explain. The charge of the bandits who surrendered to the Tartars was just their shout. If it really was done, the money and thoughts spent would not be worth it.
"Highly, the kindness of the family is righteous. As the saying goes, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda." Fan Xiu'an also said from the side. As for Xu Sancai, who was kicked to the ground by Xu Tong, struggled hard at this time, Chen Sheng stepped on his back and could not move.
"If you understand, you should know. If Gao Baijia hadn't been magnanimous, your Xu family would have been decisive. If you really go to the county jail, you should know what to say and what not to say!"
Fan Xiu'an picked up a wine pot from the table and poured it directly on Xu Sancai's head who was struggling. His cold words also made Xu Sancai, who was full of despair, suddenly woke up. He was not willing to die, and he could no longer implicate his family and die with him.
If Gao Jin wanted to destroy his whole family, Xu Sancai would naturally fight to the death no matter what. No matter how terrible the prison in the county prison was, he would still begging for justice. Even if he was a ghost, he would not let Gao Jin feel happy. But now Fan Xiu'an's words directly extinguished the hatred in his heart, and all he left was the idea of begging for his wife and children to live.
"Little...little man... understand, thank you...gao...gao...master...good kindness!"
Despite his unclear speech, Xu Sancai still tried his best to say this, and then he had no idea of struggling and allowed Chen Sheng to take him out of the hall.
Carrying Xu Sancai out of the hall, Chen Sheng turned around and looked at Fan Xiu'an and Xu Tong who were sitting back at the table. He couldn't help but beat him up. He asked himself that he had seen the world with his second brother, and he could not say that he had killed people like a disaster, but his thieves were not as good as Xu and Fan.
No wonder the second brother said that the surname Fan is not a good person, so be careful! Thinking of Fan Xiu'an's expression and attitude when he was pouring wine on Xu Sancai's head just now, Chen Sheng realized that Fan Xiu'an's usual smiling face and easy-going attitude were just disguised, and this kind of coldness and ruthlessness was his true face.
The wine ended after nearly an hour. When Gao Jin and the other two came out of the hall, the servants of Qianhu Mansion saw that their master and this master were extremely intimate, and they were even more intimate in their words, making them unable to understand what was going on. You must know that they were still tense before and almost got angry on the spot.
"You don't have to see me off. I'll wait for you in a few days. I'll invite you to drink."
Xu Tong, who was slightly drunk, patted Gao Jin's shoulder and then called Xu Gang over, one to come to get the money, and the other to ask him to escort Xu Sancai and others. As for the cart of Tartars, he didn't mention it.
Although Xu Tong was greedy, he still understood the principle of using money to do things. After he collected Gao Jin's money, he would naturally end the lawsuit between Xu Sancai and others, so that Gao Jin would send the cart of Tartars to Thousand Houses.
"Then I'll thank you for your care."
Gao Jin didn't mind doing such a blind date with Xu Tongxu and Weishe, and then said to Fan Xiu'an beside him, "Shopkeeper Fan, I have just taken over the fortress here, and everything is in trouble. I wonder if I can ask you, the God of Wealth, to stay for a few more days, so I can ask you for advice."
"My nephew, the shopkeeper Fan is busy with his work, so you are a little troubled."
Xu Tong knew that the three families were working together in business, and Fan Xiu'an contributed money and Gao Jin contributed his efforts. However, he was in the middle and did nothing, so he was afraid that Fan Xiu'an and Gao Jin would engage in private, so he spoke.
"It's okay. Gao Baihu and I hit it off at first sight, and we happened to hear about Gao Baihu's heroic deeds."
Fan Xiu'an didn't care about Xu Tong's words. He knew that Gao Jin asked him to keep him on purpose. Is the purpose nothing more than to make Xu Tong feel jealous of him. This high man is really not as old as his age at all, but rather like a scheming old fox.
Xu Tong's face collapsed, but he didn't say anything. He just smiled and said, "That's fine, with the shopkeeper Fan, you have made a lot of money."
"Then I will accept the good words of Lord."
Gao Jin saw that there was something in his words, and Xu Tong, who was always petty in his mind, still greeted him with a smile.
Xu Tong ordered a few servants to go back to Shenmu Fort first. He was unwilling to stay for the night in rural areas like Hekou Fort. He would rather rush back to the mansion than to face Gao Jin, a cunning child who was as fox, greedy as wolf, and ferocious as tiger.
After leaving Hekou Fort, Xu Gang, who had been following Xu Tong, couldn't help but ask, "Master, we will deal with this Gao in the future..."
"This kid is not simple, he is much better than him."
Xu Tong waved his hand and dealt with Gao Jin himself, and then he realized how difficult it was to deal with Gao Jin. This young man was cruel and skillful and thoughtful in doing things, but the most rare thing was that he still knew the rules and advance and retreat. His tricks could not deal with him.
"Then what should we do next, sir?"
It was the first time that Xu Gang saw his master attaching so much importance to someone. When he thought about Gao Jin's age, he couldn't help but be shocked.
"After you go back, you will spread the news that Gao Jin will escort the Tartars in a few days. He wants to be good at dancing and make good friends, so it is not that simple."
Xu Tong sneered. Gao Jin is not a hundred households now. He has to wait for him to go to Qianhu Institute and formally complete the procedures. He is not very concerned about the military merits represented by the Tartars. However, the pieces of hob meat in Qianhu Institute are very jealous. At that time, he will see how Gao Jin will deal with it.
"I understand, sir."
