"I'm kidding, I'm kidding." Shi Kefa and others didn't know what Li Mingxun meant. They just thought it was the young man who was joking and started to whine one after another. However, Qian Qianyi's face changed slightly and he didn't take any further remarks. He had already felt Li Mingxun's hostility towards him at the banquet.

Although Li Mingxun did not master the craftsmanship of shaving his head, he had a dagger in the past few years. As his hands were raised and the knife fell, Li Rutai's head was shaved, leaving only a penny-sized top on his head. Li Mingxun tied the strand of head into a small braid, and asked someone to take the copper coins. He tried to pass through the copper coins. He gave up. He laughed and said, "This is the rat-tail style of the Donglu. Now in Liaodong, all races are like this, and the Han people cannot avoid it."

Shi Kefa was furious and punched the table, shouting: "Isn't such a rat tail of money everywhere? If we are so shaved, it would be better to die!"

Li Mingxun patted Li Ruitai on the shoulder and signaled the soldiers to pull him down. The dagger was stirred up in Li Mingxun's hands. He said: "Some people always think that I may make peace with the Donglu, but it is actually nonsense. If you let me shave it, it is better to kill me. I wonder what you think?"

Qian Qianyi said: "Although sir's words are simple, they make sense. My Chinese people are so tall and slim and wear clothes in the country. No one in the world can be better than the ones. How can they shave and change clothes and serve the captives? If I unfortunately end up in that world, I will only die."

As soon as this said, everyone slapped their high-highs and praised him. Li Mingxun laughed, put the dagger back on the sheath, held it with both hands and gave it to Qian Qianyi, and said, "Mr. Qian, this knife can be shaved or stolen, or you can make your own aspirations clear. Today, I heard what Mr. said, "This dagger was given to Mr. Qian. If there was really that day, this knife could be a witness."

Qian Qianyi took the dagger and asked, "Can Mr. Li not trust me?"

Lee Mingxun smiled: "You can trust it, but you can't believe it."

"Don't Mr. Li know that people don't believe in the truth that people are useless?" Qian Qianyi looked at Li Mingxun deliberately targeting him, took the dagger and asked sternly.

Li Mingxun waved his hand: "I heard this but didn't agree with it. I only know that the strong wind knows the strong grass, and the slander knows the sincere ministers. People who have not been tested will find it difficult to believe it."

"I am a person in Donglin. Everyone will be convinced of his words. I will never fall behind others." Qian Qianyi said.

Li Mingxun still shook his head. He picked up a glass of wine casually and smiled and said, "Before Hong Chengchou surrendered, everyone thought that he would die for the Ming Dynasty. Even the emperor built a temple for him and came to pay sacrifices in person. As a result, he surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. Not to mention it, in Dengzhou, the fourth prince of Fushe was very angry and wanted to advise the people of the court. He put a knife on his neck, but he retreated. If he was so generous, anyone could say that, who could do it at that point."

Seeing Qian Qianyi going to do something, Lin Shizhang quickly stood up to smooth things over. He said, "Mingxun has drunk too much. If you say these unrestricted words here, you should really be fined two glasses."

Li Mingxun shrugged and said indifferently: "It's right, Master Lin said it's right, it's right to punish me, I'll drink it."

Li Mingxun was drinking, Lin Shizhang nodded slightly to Qian Qianyi. Qian Qianyi clapped his palms. Two women came down from the building, one of whom was holding a pipa. Li Mingxun had seen it in Dengzhou, but it was Li Xiangjun. The other beautiful young woman sat next to Qian Qianyi. As she spoke, she figured out the identity of the woman, Liu Rushi.

"It turns out that Hedong Jun is here. I wonder if I am lucky enough to listen to the elegant music today?" Shi Kefa asked with a smile.

Liu Rushi smiled slightly: "My sister Xiangjun plays a good pipa. I just heard you talk about it. It is better to play a song "Chu and Han" than to be considered a song of "Chu and Han", which is a good example, how about it?"

"How wonderful, so wonderful!" Shi Kefa smiled and laughed.

If we talk about the ancient music "Chu and Han", I'm afraid I haven't heard much, but there is another name, Li Mingxun is very familiar with it - "The Ambush on Ten Faces".

After saying that, Li Xiangjun gave a gentle bow, sat on the chair, with the pipa in his hand, and it was already playing high. Everyone closed their ears and listened carefully. The music seemed to be in the decisive battle between the two armies, and the tightness seemed to be a clash of gold and iron. In the meantime, the momentum was changing, the stars were changing, tragic, generous, majestic, and continuous.

After the song was played, everyone sucked their hands and praised it. Shi Kefa even said: "This song is very well played on the ambush on ten sides, like a million soldiers fighting fiercely. Miss Li's attainments in this song have entered the realm of transformation."

"My lord praised it. He was just proficient in playing it, but he could only hear it. He was just a group of Dengzhou. He heard and saw the military power of the Tenglong Trading Company. The horse was made of Lu Feiqiu, and his bow was astonished as a thunderbolt. He was in the scene. The golden sword and iron horse were so angry that he was like a tiger. When he played this song, his mood was very different from before." Li Xiangjun said implicitly.

Shi Kefa smiled, looked at Li Mingxun deeply, and asked, "Why is this mood very different from the past? Is it because of the mind or the mind that has a husband in his heart?"

Li Mingxun seemed to have not heard it, and was eating wine and food on his own. While he was looking around, everyone was already focusing on him. Li Mingxun asked, "What's the matter?"

Qian Qianyi shouted softly: "It's really a cow chewing peonies, and playing the piano against the cow!"

Shi Kefa smiled and said, "Mr. Li, the beauty is very kind and should not be disappointed."

Li Mingxun didn't know that these old guys were using this woman to trick him. No matter whether Li Rutai was trying to do something or Li Xiangjun, the beauty plan, he always had something to ask for. Before he couldn't figure out the other party's intentions, Li Mingxun was not good at expressing his opinion. However, Li Xiangxun looked at him with affectionate eyes. Li Mingxun did not have the courage to refuse. He could only change the topic and asked: "Have we finished our business?"

Hearing this, Li Xiangjun's eyes were red and she was already in a state of ease. However, Li Mingxun really didn't see it and said, "Let's talk about the love between children in private, let's talk about it now."

Shi Kefa and Qian Qianyi looked at each other, but they were all out of their way. Shi Kefa even said in his heart: "This guy is really impeccable."

Seeing that Qian Qianyi and Shi Kefa had no choice, the others seemed to be trying to persuade him again. Lin Shizhang smiled slightly and said, "I should do this yellow-soldier. If the arrangement is done, I will tell you."

This is said without any leakage. When everyone heard his own opinions, when Li Mingxun saw Li Xiangjun retreating, Lin Shizhang said this again, thinking that this matter had been resolved. Qian Qianyi and Shi Kefa had another view. The words of Huang Shanke as Lin Shizhang clearly were to handle Li Xiangjun's redeem and combed Li Mingxun, which was to agree to Li Mingxun, forming a certain fact, but Li Mingxun didn't know what Huang Shanke did.

"I've eaten wine and heard the song. I wonder what you have to give me?" Li Mingxun was afraid that these old guys would have any other means, so he simply went straight to the topic. He changed the subject and said, "If you still have a cliché like this, just don't say it anymore. I and Mr. Wang Chengen and Mr. Wang have made it clear."

This was something that everyone present did not expect. They all knew Wang Chengen's name, whether he was the old eunuch or the loyal servant of the emperor from Qiandi, and he was a close minister of the emperor. Since he had said that, that is, the emperor had already tested Li Mingxun. Shi Kefa hurriedly asked, "How did you say it?"

Li Mingxun smiled slightly and said, "It's actually very simple to let me be dependent. Just move the capital to Nanjing."

Shi Kefa couldn't help but sigh. As the governor of the canal transportation, he had a very deep understanding of the current situation of the Ming Dynasty. Although he did not have the awareness of the rapid demise of the Ming Dynasty, he also knew that the situation in the north was no longer enough. Moving the capital was actually the best way, but Shi Kefa also understood that this was almost impossible.

Shi Kefa couldn't help but value Li Mingxun more. In his opinion, Li Mingxun's condition could be said to have grasped the key points of seven inches.

Qian Qianyi had a different view from Shi Kefa. He asked seriously: "Mr. Li, what if my Donglin Gentleman sincerely invited me?"

In Qian Qianyi's opinion, this is an extremely heavy weight, enough to overwhelm any kind of political considerations, but Li Mingxun's response surprised him. Li Mingxun shrugged and asked as if nothing had happened: "Is there a gentry in Donglin? Is there any difference?"

"The difference is whether your club can expand commercial interests in Jiangnan!" Qian Qianyi could not accept Li Mingxun's contempt for Donglin's power. He knocked on the table and shouted in a low voice.

Li Mingxun smiled and said, "The club is now showing very well in Jiangnan."

"That's because of our Donglin's acquiescence!" Qian Qianyi reminded, and asked, "What if Donglin opposes, have you considered the consequences?"

Li Mingxun's face was normal and said, "Of course I have considered it. The consequence is that the community will turn into pirates on the spot. Like the Japanese pirates, they will plague all over the southeast coast. The ships of the gentry in Jiangnan cannot leave the sea, lose the profits of sea trade, and have to recruit more troops to defend the interests of the coast. The result is that the community that can only survive by smuggling will have a hard time. In the Ming Dynasty, there will be no peace in the southeast taxation land, thieves, the East Captains, and the Southeast Pirates. Tsk, maybe they will perish soon, and then Jiangnan will be reshuffled."

"You... are you threatening me?" Qian Qian raised his beard with anger and shouted.

Li Mingxun put his hands on his chest, but he seemed very calm and said, "Mr. Qian, shouldn't I ask you this?"

Qian Qianyi couldn't speak, but Li Mingxun said: "Mr. Qian, the Donglin Party you regard as everything is nothing in my eyes. If you are willing to live in harmony with the community, we can divide more commercial interests. However, if you are willing to make things difficult, the community will not be afraid. The ending of a death-torn battle is not good, but at most a community will choose another place to make a comeback. But what is it if Donglin loses the Ming Dynasty?"

Shi Kefa quietly observed Li Mingxun's every move. Now he had to admit that Li Mingxun was harder to deal with than he thought. At this time, he realized that it was impossible for me to use Li Mingxun to use it. Shi Kefa grabbed Qian Qianyi who was about to explode and said, "Mr. Li, Jiangnan is the source of wealth of the Ming Dynasty and the fundamental one. Apart from recruiting and appeasement, is there a way to let your community invest more military resources into Jiangnan?"

Seeing that Li Mingxun was a little hesitant, Shi Kefa reminded: "Chuang Ni and Xian Thief have already become king in Huguang, and Jiangnan will soon become a place for four battles!"

Li Mingxun suddenly understood something. As a time traveler, he knew very well that after Li Zicheng, who was king in Xiangyang, went north to seize Shaanxi, he directly captured Yanjing, while Zhang Xianzhong went to Sichuan to seize Shu, and then the rhythm of the Qing Dynasty entering the pass. However, in the eyes of those in power such as Shi Kefa, it was different. Since ancient times, all the regimes occupying Huguang have gained strategic advantages over Jiangnan, went downstream, and occupied Jiangsu and Zhejiang only in a while. No wonder Shi Kefa is so worried. It turns out that the sharp blade is hanging high above his head and can be dropped at any time.

"It seems that there are many soldiers in Jiangnan, such as Lord Shi, you have them..." Li Mingxun said, but was interrupted by Shi Kefa.

"The troops in Jiangnan are useless! They can't stop the thieves who have broken into the enemy."

"Jiangnan is a wealthy area, raising funds for food and money..."

"It's too late!" Shi Kefa did not hesitate.

Lee Mingxun asked: "Is the power of our club necessary to be much more powerful?"

"The fleet can help the river defense to stabilize, elite troops can defeat the Eastern Captains, and they can also defeat the bandits!" Shi Kefa said.

Li Mingxun smiled slightly. Since the power of the club is so important to Jiangnan, we have to mention the conditions carefully. This opportunity is not in vain.

"I have good plans, one strategy to ensure that there is no danger at the moment, and one strategy can manage long-term governance and stability." Li Mingxun said.

"Please say, please say." Shi Kefa said.

Li Mingxun said: "It's simple to be safe for a while. You pay for the club to send troops. I will give you as much money as you have. As long as you can help you within the scope of the club's ability."

Everyone present was embarrassed. Li Mingxun had always asked for money to help him with all his strength. The cost of sending troops was not a small amount. A gentleman asked: "I heard that Mr. Li won the Central Plains without taking any slightest amount. As long as Shandong immigrates, if so..."

"Immigration is enough, no matter how much it is, it is a burden." Li Mingxun said bluntly.

Shi Kefa sighed: "What about another strategy?"

Li Mingxun said: "Another strategy is very simple. Relax the constraints on communities in Jiangnan. Please think that the only industry in Chongming Nansha is in Jiangnan. Naturally, the community will not invest too much effort to protect it. If it is not possible, it will be lost. However, if the restrictions are lifted, the community will trade a lot in Jiangnan and the industries are spread all over the country. Then Jiangnan is a core interest area like Taiwan. If Jiangnan is threatened, the community will be willing to help all its strength even if it is for itself!"

"So, is your community willing to share the joys and sorrows with the gentry in Jiangnan?" asked Shi Kefa.
