Chapter 230: Secret War

As soon as they heard the word "over there", Song Chen and Su Miao's ears immediately pricked up, and they subconsciously listened intently-the point is here!

If you need to use words like "over there" to form a party, then things may not be so simple. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 The reason why the code name needs to be used in the words when mentioning info must be because the person is in the dark and must not be exposed to others.

Originally, Song Chen felt that it was a very unusual and unreasonable thing for Wan Niansheng and them to deliberately take away the farmers' land, but now it has been confirmed that there is indeed a third party in this incident, but I don't know if Lu Yan has found anything.

"Phew!"

There was a sudden loud sound underneath, if it weren't for Song Chen and Su Miao's concentration, this sudden sound might have startled them to show their traces. They glanced at each other, it seemed that Zeng Qinglong really hit the point this time, which is why Wan Niansheng was so angry.

As soon as Wan Nian Sheng heard the word "over there", as if he had been lit with explosives, he picked up the paperweight next to him and slapped the desk hard, stood up, and stared at Zeng Qinglong with angry eyes: "You don't want to mess around in Dalan anymore, do you?" ”

Zeng Qinglong was also so shocked by Wan Niansheng's sudden anger that he jumped up, and suddenly hid behind the chair, but obviously, he didn't quite understand where Wan Niansheng's anger came from: "Big brother...... Isn't there no one at the moment? Can't you mention this when it's just the two of us there? I know it's importantβ€”"

"Did I tell you before that you don't care about it, just don't know anything?" Wan Niansheng tried his best to control his voice.

If it wasn't for the carelessness at that time, Zeng Qinglong inadvertently knew that he had dealings with the people over there in this matter, he would never let the latter know the slightest bit about this matter. Because he really has no way to talk, and his mouth is faster than his brain when he is sober, and it gets worse even more after drinking.

After Zeng Qinglong knew about the matter, Wan Niansheng often detained him, but the former was a perennial person who liked to linger in Hualou Spring Pavilion, so he had no choice but to accompany him to ask Chen Si and them to drink flower wine together. There were a few times Zeng Qinglong couldn't help but speak, if it wasn't for Wan Nian Sheng, he would have interrupted him on the spot and turned the matter back, this matter almost leaked!

Therefore, Wan Niansheng gave Zeng Qinglong a death order, and he must not mention a word about this matter, whether it is in front of people or behind people. Because in terms of Zeng Qinglong's character, if he doesn't mention a word, he will gradually forget or doubt his memory, and it is the safest thing to question that this matter may not exist at all. If he is allowed to mention it from time to time, then he will not be able to speak up regardless of the occasion.

Wan Niansheng can't take this risk.

"But isn't there no way around it right now?" Zeng Qinglong felt very aggrieved and lowered his head, "Although we are here to make money, didn't this land exchange plan come up from there?" Now that this thing has changed, they must be thinking of a way, right? ”

"If there's a way, they'll let you know." Wan Niansheng said helplessly.

Wan Jia and the Zeng family have been friends for several generations, Wan Nian Shengxu is a few years older, Zeng Qinglong has been running behind his ass since he was a child, and the two of them can also be said to be playmates since childhood. The latter has always admired him and regarded him as a big brother, and after a long time, Wan Niansheng also regarded him as his younger brother. Since he was a child, Zeng Qinglong has been like this, Wan Niansheng is whatever he says, he just needs to follow, and when they grow up, they are in charge of the family's business, and the situation is still the same. But Zeng Qinglong also has a shortcoming, that is, admitting death, when he is stubborn, he will be extremely stubborn, and he will never give up without a clear explanation.

So seeing that Zeng Qinglong was blindly entangled in this issue, Wan Niansheng could only spread out and tell him, otherwise, he would have been entangled.

"I'll only tell you this time, you have to keep in mind that you must never mention it again in the future! I'm doing your best too! The anger on Wan Niansheng's face had been taken back, his face became very solemn, and he sighed, "You know, what is the most hated behavior of our emperor of Dalan, right?" ”

"What is it?" Zeng Qinglong really didn't know, where would he think about this kind of problem? Before, he just felt that Wan Niansheng, who had always been affectionate, was extremely secretive when it came to things over there, which made him feel very uncomfortable in his heart, as if he was an outsider like Zhong Wanquan and them, so he would mention it again and again disobediently, but now that Wan Niansheng confessed to him, he was no longer entangled, "But it doesn't matter, even if they don't provide us with a way to break the current situation, anyway, we have done what they ordered, and the timing was also chosen by them, and the grain was also collected, It's up to us to decide whether it will work out or not! It is better not to receive the reward after that deed...... Anyway, we already made a lot of money at the beginning of the flood, and this grain came for nothing, Zhong Wanquan's grain and silver came to us again, even if we sold it at a price lower than the Feng'an grain store after the summer harvest, it would be a lot of money! We've made three hands before and after, and it's nothing if we don't want that silver! ”

"If there's really no way, it's just going to be like this first!" Wan Nian Sheng thought more than Zeng Qinglong, "I'm afraid that the other party won't agree." ”

Although when the other party recruited him at the beginning, the rhetoric used was almost the same as Zeng Qinglong's, which meant that if he helped them, as long as he handed over the land he exchanged for to their relevant personnel to take care of after the matter was completed, he would receive a large amount of reward silver. Even if it didn't work out in the end, they wouldn't have anything to lose, which made him decide to do it. However, he was worried that the other party just said it well in advance, and if the matter did not work out in the end, I am afraid that the other party would not give up so easily, and there must be other things that need their cooperation in the future. If they refuse, the other party has evidence of their conspiracy, and when the matter is stabbed out, I am afraid that he and Zeng Qinglong will not be able to eat and walk away.

"Big brother is so worried about what?" Zeng Qinglong looked at Wan Niansheng not only did not relax, but his brows furrowed even tighter, and he couldn't help but be very puzzled, "Even if we turn against them in the end, what's wrong with Dalan is a special territory, right?" As the saying goes, 'a strong dragon does not suppress the head snake', they may be very powerful abroad, but when they come to Dalan, don't they have to be cautious? Don't dare to do anything to us! ”

"That's why I've always told you not to talk nonsense outside." Wan Niansheng looked at Zeng Qinglong and shook his head, "Didn't I ask you just now if you know what the emperor hates the most?" If we just toss around in Dalan, no matter how high we raise the price of food when the disaster happens, it is also an act of freedom, and some untouchables may secretly scold us, but what is the use? Anyway, we have earned the money, and we can't hear the words, it doesn't matter, and the law can't do anything about us. ”

"However, if those people tell us that we are connected to them, and that the price increase and land exchange plan are related to them, we will be in big trouble! conspiring with people abroad to seize the land of Dalan, in the eyes of the emperor, it is a 'collaborator'! This is not a trivial matter, since the emperor succeeded to the throne, he has been robbed of a lot of talents and resources by the Eagle Country, so he is extremely sensitive and vigilant about this kind of thing! If those people have the intention to retaliate, even if there is no so-called evidence, the emperor will probably be paid special attention to by us because of this, and then our life will be difficult. ”

"Won't you...... Although we also have some money, we can't even rank in the top 20 in Lannan, and the emperor has every opportunity, where will he pay attention to us for such groundless things? Zeng Qinglong was a little skeptical.

"Where does he need to take care of us himself?" Wan Niansheng was angry, angry and funny about the innocence shown in Zeng Qinglong, "The king of a country has people under his hands!" Even if we don't send any ministers or the like, we can't even use the prefect, and if we send some state officials or something, it's enough for us to eat a pot! Those people can even manage the tens of thousands of people under their hands, will they not be able to cure the two of us? ”

"Ahh So what to do? The more Zeng Qinglong listened, the more he felt that it made sense, and at this time he showed that he was afraid, "Since this matter is so troublesome, and the eldest brother has always considered the problem carefully, why did he agree to cooperate with those people at that time?" Although we do not have the most silver, we never have to condescend to it. Why bother? ”

"It's useless to talk about it now!" Wan Niansheng waved his hand, a little irritable. In fact, when I think about this matter later, with his always cautious style, even if the other party says it wildly, he can grasp the crux and essence of the problem, even if he can't see it for a while, but after going back and thinking about it, he can also find this potential trouble. But I don't know why, after listening to the other party's words at the time, he immediately agreed! He thought about it many times later, but he didn't understand it, and when Zeng Qinglong mentioned it at this time, it undoubtedly hit him in the sore spot, "Now that the matter is now, I have to find a way to fight Feng'an Grain Store to the end!" ”

"Hmmm! No matter what, I'll stand with my big brother! Zeng Qinglong has never hesitated in this regard. Speaking of which, he is actually not a material for doing business, if he hadn't followed Wan Niansheng and had the help of the other party all the way, his family's business might have lost in his hands a long time ago, where would there be such a bigger and bigger situation today?

"Then no matter what, don't mention the word 'over there' again!" For Wan Niansheng, Zeng Qinglong's failure to help is already the best help.

"I promise!" Zeng Qinglong behaved obediently at this time, he stood up, "Then I'll come back first?" Don't bother big brother, you think about countermeasures! I'll think about it when I go back! ”

"Okay, you go back first!" Wan Niansheng didn't pay attention to Zeng Qinglong's words, and waved his hand to let him out. Fang Fang's mood that had finally calmed down by writing was pestered by Zeng Qinglong's nonsense, and it was gone, and then, he had to continue to write and precipitate.

After Zeng Qinglong left, Song Chen and Su Miao stayed on the roof for a pillar of incense again, and saw that Wan Niansheng was only writing with all his heart, and then he had been sitting and thinking, it seemed that there should be no follow-up, and they left Wanfu and returned to their house.

As soon as he went back, Song Chen sent a flying pigeon passenger, asking Liufu to transfer Kuai Yong and Bian Kang and other four people to the city.

Looking at Wan Niansheng's cautious appearance now, it seems that it is impossible to get any information related to 'over there' from his conversations with other people in the mansion, and he probably won't leave any relevant letters and other evidence. But if he wants to contact 'over there', he will need to leave the house, or someone will need to come in. Transferring Kuai Yong and them over is to let them keep an eye on the front and back doors of Wanfu, and if they find any movement in Wanfu at that time, they will immediately send someone back to inform him and Su Miao, and then they will follow.

After arranging things properly, Song Chen and Su Miao took Xiaobai to the teahouse opposite the gate of Wanfu to ask for a private room to drink tea. It takes time for the carrier pigeon to fly back to Zhuangzi, and it will take time for Liufu to summon Kuai Yong and them back after receiving the letter, plus the time it takes for Kuai Yong and them to rush over, no matter how they arrive, it will be tomorrow. Before Kuai Yong and them arrived, it was better for them to come and watch it for themselves.

"Miaomiao, do you think that in addition to Wan Niansheng and Zeng Qinglong, the other three really have nothing to do with this matter?" In terms of looking at people's intuition, Su Miao has always been very subtle and precise.

"Well, they're really just anxious about the food they have in their hands." Su Miao nodded, not sympathetic at all, "That's deserved, although it is the nature of businessmen to pursue profits, but who made them so greedy!" However, Na Wan Nian Sheng and Zeng Qinglong are really dark enough, clearly saying that they are advancing and retreating together with the three families, but secretly they also received high-priced grain and silver from others, tsk! ”

You're right, this lack of greed is not at all worthy of sympathy. Not only was he deceived into buying food, but he was also unknowingly involved in serious crimes. Song Chen sneered, "I don't know how Zhong Wanquan will react after they know the truth of the matter." It's really exciting! ”

"If we find out that Wan Niansheng and the other side are connected, let's go and arrest one of them and listen to it together?" Su Miao winked playfully, "Hearing is believing." Anyway, Zhong Wanquan has already had resentment in their hearts, and when the time comes, let them drag each other back, that will be really lively! ”

"I think it can!" Song Chen immediately agreed.
