Tan Lun's letter said three things, the first thing was that Liu Jian indeed sent someone to Lijiazhuang to verify Li Xu's identity.

With Li Xu's advance explanation, Tan Lun arranged this very appropriately.

The people sent by Liu Jian randomly found some farmers working in the fields in Lijiazhuang, and "inadvertently" mentioned Li Xu, the second young master of the Li family.

These farmers praised the second young master, saying that he was easy-going and kind to his servants and tenants, filial to his parents, caring for his brothers and sisters, and talented, and very talented in martial arts. In short, he praised Li Xu like a flower.

This "spy" seemed to accidentally meet Lao Tan, the manager of Lijiazhuang, and then used the name of applying for Mr. Xixi to cliché from Lao Tan. Although Lao Tan is smart, he is just a manager of a gentry family after all. After being praised for a few words, he revealed a lot of information.

Although it is not as exaggerated as the merchants say, it is enough to prove Li Xu's identity and experience.

This "spy" man wandered around Lijiazhuang for a long time before finally leaving.

After he left, Tan Lun asked someone to lift the Chen and his son who were tied up with their mouths out of the woodshed, warning them to slaughter the village if they dared to reveal a word.

As for the original farmers in the village, they were ordered to be locked up in the house and not allowed to walk around. Of course, the farmers who worked in the fields were also real farmers, but they were all farmers under Li Xu, so naturally they would not reveal any flaws.

After Tan Lun took his men away, the Chen family and his son who escaped from danger checked inside and outside and found that the group of strong men who broke into the house did not rob their things or killed one. Although they were puzzled, they were also secretly glad. In addition, Tan Lun's threat before leaving, they naturally did not have the intention of reporting to the official.

After successfully dealing with Liu Jian's verification, Li Xu did not have any expression of excitement. It was not enough for the second thing Tan Lun said to surprise him.

It turned out that when Tan Lun brought people back to the Malan Mountain base, he actually met several people on the road near Lijiazhuang. Tan Lun was worried that these people would reveal their whereabouts, so he caught them and interrogated them. However, he did not expect that these people were from the Chen family, another big villager in Sanshui County.

And this Chen family is the mother's home of Li Qin's biological mother Chen.

Chenjiazhuang is located in Tuqiao Town, Sanshui County, and is seventy or eighty miles away from Lijiazhuang. It is also a big village with some strength in Sanshui County.

These people were sent by Chen's father Chen Shouyi to Lijiazhuang to find Chen, saying that Chen Shouyi was preparing to celebrate his 60th birthday, so he wanted Chen to bring his children to celebrate his birthday, and discuss the marriage between his daughter Li Qin and Chen's nephew.

As a result, these people were met by Tan Lun before they could see Chen.

The leader among these people was Chen Shouyi's grandson, Chen Ziteng, the nephew Chen who wanted to marry Li Qin.

Tan Lun naturally knew about Li Xu and what happened to Li Qin. He simply made a quick decision to take dozens of people with him to Chenjiazhuang, pretending to be a strong man who kidnapped and blackmailed, pretending to be a strong man who ransomed to "Wild Boar Ridge Ma Tianlu" and threatening Chen Ziteng's life, asking Chen Shouyi to prepare 10,000 taels of silver and 500 stones of grain, otherwise he would tear the tickets.

Chen Ziteng was timid and cried to his parents when he was scared. He heard Chen Shouyi and a group of Chen family members on the wall were frightened.

Seeing that Tan Lun was not carrying many people, a guard hired by the Chen family wanted to show off his power. He stood on the wall and said a few harsh words, but was shot by an arrow and turned off the wall.

The Chen family was so scared that they could not agree immediately, but Tan Lun asked someone to cut off a little finger on the spot. Chen Ziteng screamed heart-wrenchingly. Chen Shouyi almost fainted and quickly agreed to Tan Lun's conditions.

After the Chen family prepared the money and food, Tan Lun and his men escorted them away for more than ten miles before they left Chen Ziteng who fainted on the side of the road, then turned back to the Malan Mountain base, and sent someone to send a letter to Li Xu to report on the matter.

Li Xu was naturally overjoyed and shouted that he was doing it beautifully. Before he could explain to him, Tan Lun started doing it first.

He is worthy of being a famous anti-Japanese general who is as famous as Qi Jiguang. His decisiveness and action are excellent, and his subjective initiative is exerted too much.

However, the unexpected money and grain have not been recorded in the system background. Compared with Tan Lun and his group have not returned to the Malan Mountain Base.

The third thing Tan Lun said in his heart was to suggest that Li Xu expand his troops quickly, because he had already begun to find some scattered roads on the road. Judging from various signs, it should be the refugees who escaped from Yan'an Prefecture.

Tan Lun therefore judged that the situation in Yan'an Prefecture had completely decayed, and the tall-bearded thief army should go south soon, asking Li Xu to make preparations.

Li Xu was even more impressed, and Tan Lun thought of going with him again.

After reading the letter, Li Xu burned the letter so that no one would accidentally discover it.

Then he opened the letter he wrote and revised it in some places, mainly to express his appreciation for Tan Lun's extortion of Chenjiazhuang, and to continue his efforts. However, he could not use the name of Ma Tianlu of Wild Boarling. After all, Ma Tianlu had been destroyed by himself, and the county magistrate knew about it.

However, Li Xu suggested that Tan Lun could use the name of the bandits of Hei Niu Nest. Anyway, this bandits are already notorious and have a lot of bad records. Sooner or later, he will deal with them. Using their name can also give them a little more reputation before they die, which is worthy of them.

After writing, I checked it aside and found no omissions. Then I put it in my arms and opened it and told the waiter to deliver food.

The waiter quickly brought food, and Li Xu gave him a piece of silver. The waiter left with a smile on his face.

After a quick meal, Li Xu walked towards the county government and when he reached the entrance of the inn, he happened to meet Li Qin, Zhang Mingrong and others who had returned from Lingyun Tower.

The girls were surprised and happy when they saw Li Xu. After some greetings, Li Qin asked Li Xu where he went.

Li Xu smiled and said, "Mr. County Master asked me to discuss major issues, but I can't do it if I don't."

Li Qin naturally didn't believe it, and Li Xu didn't explain much, so he asked them to go back to have a meal and rest first, and he would come back later.

When Li Xu arrived at the gate of the yamen, the gatekeeper who was guarding the gate immediately greeted him with a smile on his face.

This young master became famous in the county government three days ago. Everyone knew him. He knew that he was a junior of Liuxianzun and was also the soon-to-be-received county magistrate. He didn't seem to have a good temper, so he was included in the list of big names who dare not provoke, and he was ranked very high.

"Mr. County Master, you are here. The county master is discussing with the king's clerk in the second yamen's signing room, and told the villain to say that he would hurry in when he saw you coming."

This family is older than Li Xu's dead rich father, but he calls Li Xu an old man with a flattering look on his face, and calls the county magistrate's position in advance, which makes Li Xu a little tired, nodded and walked inside.

Liu Jian must have arranged people at the city gate. As soon as he entered the city, someone would have notified Liu Jian, so he told the door to wait for him at the door.

It seems that Liu Jian is really a little anxious.

However, Li Xu was secretly happy. The more anxious Liu Jian was, the smoother his sand mixing plan would go.
