After Zhuang Qi took the people away, Xu Hui temporarily had a matter on his mind, and he focused all his energy on the attack on Yangyi. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Compared with the-for-tat confrontation of many large families in Qi County, Yangyi can be described as a standout Sang family. This family claims to be the descendants of Sang Hongyang, how true it is and how false it is not clear, but it is true that it is very talented in business. The development of the Dou family is inseparable from the full support of the Sang family, and Dou Kai's father promised his only concubine, which also proves his importance to the Sang family.

The Sang family is the most important in-law and ally of the Dou family, and they also hold the largest caravan in Taiyuan, and their status in Yangyi is really extraordinary, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is one or the other. Even the Yangyi county commander, county lieutenant, county Cheng and others who were born in the Dou clan must always flatter the Sang family and have a good relationship with each other. If you think about it from this point of view, it's a hard bone that is hard to bite.

In order to capture Yangyi, the Xu army made a lot of preparations, but who expected that the facts made them dumbfounded - the soldiers responsible for guarding Yangyi are not much less than those of Qi County, where is the real main force concentrated? Sanjiawu Fort!

At the routine meeting, seeing that the generals were dumbfounded, Xu Hui sighed lightly in his heart and explained: "Businessmen are heavy on profits, and when they encounter disasters and wars, they hoard materials in every possible way to make huge profits. In the Sangjiawu Fort, there must be countless hoards of gold, silver, beads, silk, grain and grass, these things will not be transferred for a while and a half, and the Sang family would rather give up Yangyi, and they will not give them up. ”

Hearing his niece's explanation of the situation, Xu Pan was even more breathless, and almost slapped the table: "Yangyi is not only rich, but also a military location, no matter how much the Sang family's dock fort is repaired, it will ...... it" is not in a strategic place, and the importance of Yangyi is the same, right?

Halfway through speaking, he himself stopped his mouth a little depressed, and his eyes glanced at a few important people, but seeing Su Can smiling and Liu Zhan's expressionless face, Jiang Hua was a little embarrassed, knowing that Su Can and Liu Zhan had expected the Sang family's style beforehand, Jiang Hua probably guessed, but he didn't expect the Sang family to be such a scoundrel.

Is the family like this, as long as you live well, who cares about the country and the society, and the people live or die?

At this time, Xu Pan's personal soldier explained something to him, Xu Pan took the book handed by the personal soldier with a strange face, spread it out, glanced at it slightly, and almost laughed out loud.

This letter was written by Sang Wu, the head of the Sang family, to Xu Pan, and in the letter, he seemed to show a little intention of surrendering to sincerity, and also asked for bargaining chips - they wanted to continue to maintain their superior position in Taiyuan, and neither their official positions nor caravans could be lost.

As soon as Xu Pan saw the beautiful words in the letter, and then thought about it, this Sang Wu was Dou Kai's brother-in-law, and he didn't know how respectful he was to his eldest brother every year, so he almost didn't become Dou Kai's grandson...... Compared with the two, he was so disgusting that he almost vomited out the overnight meal, and handed it directly to Xu Hui on the side, asking her to see what shamelessness is.

Xu Hui glanced at it a few times, and was no longer happy: "It is a great thing to take Yangyi without much effort!" ”

"Yes! Meddlesome. When Xu Pan heard this, he almost rolled his eyes, expressing his joy at the "good thing".

He knew in his heart that Xu Hui was right, and it was naturally a good thing for someone to surrender. But Sang Wu's lofty attitude made him unhappy in every way, but for the purpose of "appeasing the people's livelihood", if he accepted the Sang family's surrender, Xu Pan really couldn't do anything to these people. Not only that, but he also has to be appeased, to show that your in-laws are not as good as me to you, so as not to make others feel cold...... Just thinking about it makes him feel extremely tired, what kind of is this!

Thinking of this, Xu Pan arranged the siege task with no interest - to surround Sangjiawu Fort and harass them constantly, create pressure on them, and attack Yangyi with all his might, even if it drags on for a while, the people of the Sang family, plus let this group of guys bear the pressure of Dou Kai. It doesn't matter how many people are sacrificed, anyway, there are local people in Taiyuan to fill it! If you don't attack Sangjiawu Fort, you can't attack other dock forts? Aren't so many hidden households who are not registered for a living, who are not recorded, and who are not much different from the dead?

After the meeting was dispersed, Xu Pan withdrew his cronies and sighed at Xu Hui: "Hui'er, the third uncle knows that you have always been smart, can you think of a way to give this Sang family ......?"

Seeing that he made a gesture of cutting off his head, Xu Hui was rarely surprised: "This Sang family is extremely keen, and takes the initiative to be loyal to us, where did you provoke the dissatisfaction of the third uncle and let you have such thoughts?" ”

Xu Pan did not shy away from it, and said his thoughts very simply: "It is their allegiance that makes me extremely unhappy, Dou Kai has treated others badly, but he has not treated the Sang family badly!" Besides, you see, what kind of attitude do they have? If the relationship is not supported by their Sang family, we won't be able to take a mere Yangyi? ”

The family of Daqi controls the government and also firmly controls the economy, except for the Hu merchants who came over the Silk Road, the slightly larger caravan merchants in Daqi have a relationship with the family. It is not impossible to get a good tie and flatter a lot, and then spend a lot of money to get one of the few places for "joining the Su to supplement the officials", so as to ascend to the sky in one step.

In the eyes of the world, the merchant is a loyal dog of the family to accumulate wealth, and there is no status at all, and the status of the Zhou, Qin, and Han dynasties can be said to be very different. Even if Xu Ze is an out-and-out businessman and knows the importance of commerce in later generations, he will not get along with the entire era, how high the position of businessmen is, and how good treatment they will be.

Yes, Xu Ze taught Xu Hui that the circulation of trade can bring prosperity and vitality to the local and even the country, and consciously let Xu Hui contact and manage caravan trade. But he was only targeting "trade" itself, not the special group of merchants. Because of this, in Xu Hui's eyes, trade can bring wealth and is very necessary, but merchants are dispensable, and once they are unsatisfactory, they can be directly replaced.

Xu Hui was broad-minded, and he laughed at the arrogant attitude of the Sang family, just thinking about their surrender. But Xu Pan said it clearly, and she didn't want to disobey, not to mention that it was one thing not to care, and it was another thing to be pointed out, thinking like this, she was also a little uncomfortable. In response to Xu Pan's question, Xu Hui pondered for a moment and replied: "Although Qin's law is cool, Qin can unify the six countries and win this piece of the world, which shows that his law has merit. The Dou family and we have become mortal enemies, although we can't clearly destroy the three clans, so as not to lose our reputation of not being lenient and disgrace our grandfather, but this hints ...... "Seeing Xu Pan thoughtful and excited, Xu Hui hurriedly added: "Even if you think like this, you must not do too much, if you really torture like the Qin Dynasty, we will have no reputation!" This kind of thing, third uncle, you can't do it, so let me come! ”

Qin's punishment was so cruel that killing people was not just a pleasure of nodding their heads on the ground, but they had to be punished with five punishments first—first tattooing their faces with ink, gouging off their noses, cutting off their left and right arms, whipping them to death, then cutting off their heads, and discarding their fleshy corpses on the street; During the execution, if someone shouts and abuses, his tongue is pulled out first.

Such cruel torture can be accustomed to a guy like Qin Jiu, who is accustomed to studying interrogation methods, but Xu Hui cannot. For the sake of the family's reputation, you can't kill like this, in her opinion, it's best to get your own profits, and not get a little famous.

When Xu Pan heard this, he frowned slightly, obviously not very happy to let his niece's hands get bloody. But he also knew that he didn't have a lot of twists and turns, such selfish things, and he didn't want Su Can, Liu Zan and others to know that Xu Lin, who could be trusted by him, was a loyal minister who acted obediently, a smart first staff member Zhou Mo, and presided over the overall situation in Qi County, and he really couldn't find other talents for a while.

While thinking that there are too few talents in the family, especially in the clan, there should be more development and more excavation, Xu Pan looked at Xu Hui guiltily and said solemnly: "The matter of replying to the letter will be handed over to you." ”

Xu Hui smiled, took Sang Wu's book back to his tent, and began to order people to grind ink and write hard.

This reply letter, if Xu Pan or his staff were to write it, would be either dry and cold words, or vague to the point of yes or no, which made people completely unsettled and ambiguous remarks, but in exchange for Xu Hui's back and forth, it was another scene.

Xu Hui's article is very well done, and he is well versed in the inferiority complex mentality of businessmen, a reply letter was taken by her as a strategy, sprinkled with flowers, and the side of the expedition was swayed to the fullest, no matter which person who has learned to read it, he must praise it.

Out of prudence, after Xu Hui wrote the reply, he deliberately copied it again with chapter grass, and made sure that even if the other party relied on this reply to copy his own handwriting, no one in the party would recognize it, and then let people send it to Xu Pan for a look. When Xu Pan saw so many words, his head was big, and he waved his hand to send it to Sang's house, and Sang Wu, who was anxiously looking forward to Xu Pan's letter, was also dumbfounded.

No matter how developed their family is in Taiyuan now, it can't change the fact that they were still businessmen more than 20 years ago, they can be literate, and it would be good to be able to do one or two articles. In desperation, Sang Wu summoned his staff and trusted brothers to study for a long time before he figured out the bloody rain under the flowers and laughter of the reply.

Xu Hui naturally wouldn't say that he wanted to surrender to sincerity, okay, and killed the Dou daughter and the child with the Dou bloodline, doesn't this leave a clear proof for people? She just vaguely mentioned it, I'm very happy that you can surrender, but your Sang family, from the housewife to the wife of several important tasks, is the Dou family, and controls most of the Sang family's inner house, which is really not very reliable. So, don't mention the matter of surrendering, either hang a white flag and surrender, or wait for us to come in! (To be continued.) )
