Chapter 236: Fooled

Song Chen was not wrong, although Wan Niansheng seemed to be either alone at home all day, or staying with Zeng Qinglong, who came to the door, drinking tea and chatting, but in fact, he still paid close attention to the news from the outside world. www.biquge.info The next day, the Xile Grain Shop, Wanquan Grain Shop, and Sihai Grain Store lowered the price of grain at the same time, but in an hour, Wan Nian Sheng and Zeng Qinglong, who was in Wanfu, knew about it.

"What the hell is going on with them?" Zeng Qinglong's reaction seemed to be relatively big, "It's just that in order to reduce contact with them for a period of time, they picked up their own ideas so quickly?" ”

"It's only sold for thirteen ...... We gave them fifteen wen for the purchase price, and it seems that they are planning to clear the backlog of inventory rather than a small loss. Wan Niansheng touched the short beard on his upper lip, which was also a habitual action when he was thinking, "If they want to change it, change it!" Even if it is changed to Thirteen Wen, isn't it the same as the one in Feng'an Grain Shop, and it won't attract people to the past...... After all, their reputation has fallen when they were tied to us......"

"Yes. Anyway, we have collected the money for food, and we don't bother to care how they want to sell it. Zeng Qinglong immediately calmed down after listening to Wan Niansheng's words, "At present, the most important thing for us is to contact 'over there', right?" Why did this operation fail, and there was no news at all? At least give us some instructions on what to do next! ”

Lu Yan issued a wanted warrant to go down, and the six real murderers who pretended to be merchants and went to three villages to wait for the opportunity to poison were not found, Song Chen guessed that those people may have changed their appearance at that time, and after the task was completed, they returned to their original appearance, and it was not easy to find them. However, several people sent out by Zeng Qinglong were drawn by Song Chen and handed over to Lu Yan, and in the name of the government, they arrested all three people for disturbing the people's hearts and serving the people. Zeng Qinglong and Wan Niansheng are most worried about this one. Although those who can be sent out to do this work have family members in their hands, and they dare not easily confess their two masters once they fail, this kind of uneasy feeling that they may fall into the hands of others still makes people restless and very uncomfortable.

Wan Niansheng was also a little anxious because of this. Because if only 'over there' poisoned someone to find out, then the matter has nothing to do with him at all, but if the people sent by Zeng Qinglong confess Zeng Qinglong, it is difficult to guarantee that Zeng Qinglong will not be involved in him. Although he had already made corresponding arrangements for this matter in advance, the letterhead with the addresses of the three villages had already been given to Zeng Qinglong, and he didn't know if the latter's letterhead had been destroyed afterwards (of course he couldn't ask Zeng Qinglong this question at the moment), that was a way back for himself. Of course, with Zeng Qinglong's admiration and admiration for him since he was a child, even if the three people who were arrested confessed Zeng Qinglong, the latter might not confess to him, but that prefect is afraid that it is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Such a secret action over there was cracked by him in time, and they were still wanted on the street, with Zeng Qinglong's paragraph, he was worried that the latter was far from being Lu Yan's opponent, I am afraid that in less than a few words, Zeng Qinglong would "sell" him unconsciously!

"I've been feeling strange these days, that the other side is now so wanted, even if they don't inform us of our next move, why haven't they asked us for help?" Wan Niansheng was puzzled, "Even if we can't arrange for them to leave the city by making arrangements, it's always okay for them to hide in our mansion, right?" There are so many people in the house, and the government can't find it if they want to investigate! In that case, wouldn't it be convenient for us to discuss things? Could it be ......"

"What's the matter?" Zeng Qinglong saw Wan Nian Sheng groaning, he subconsciously panicked, and asked tightly, "Couldn't the eldest brother see that something inappropriate has happened to things?" ”

It seems that since the beginning of cooperation with "over there", except for the silver of large families who made a lot of "silver is not a problem" at the beginning of the high grain price, until Feng'an Grain Store began to transform and sell grain, all their things seem to be in "improper", and none of them are smooth.

"I'm a little skeptical, 'over there' has seen that after the arrest of the subordinates in your house, they have treated us as outcasts and avoided contact with us, because they are worried that the government will track down their traces through us!" Wan Niansheng's face was gloomy, if this was the case, their situation would be very bad!

"Big brother, Chen Si and they suddenly made their own decisions, could it have something to do with this matter?" Zeng Qinglong suddenly proposed a possibility.

Wan Niansheng's face was even more bad, and he was suspicious in his heart: "It's not impossible!" ”

"What then?" Zeng Qinglong was anxious, "If they cooperate separately, there is a possibility that they will betray us at that time!" Shall we spit out the silver that we have already eaten? ”

"Silver is just a trifle." Wan Niansheng looked at Zeng Qinglong, for the first time he began to be a little impatient with his inability to keep up with his own train of thought, and the little regret in his heart that he was ready to push him out on his behalf also dissipated, such a foolish person, if he could take it for himself, it would be his luck, and he could finally play some value, "what if" After cooperating with Chen Si and them, we have become outcasts, and the last role we can play for them may be to be pushed out under the investigation of the government and become pawns to divert attention...... If they leave far away, and the government finds out about us, the case will be closed, and then they will be able to come back after a while, and they will have a partner to cooperate with again anyway......"

"But this matter is just speculation so far, and maybe things haven't gotten bad this far." Wan Niansheng still tried his best to appease Zeng Qinglong, he can't be in a hurry, if he is really anxious, he doesn't know what he will do, don't wait until the other party actually didn't give up on them as they guessed now, they gave themselves out!

"Why don't I have someone to inform Chen Si and call them over to talk?" Zeng Qinglong asked. It's really a wave of unsettled, wave after wave. Originally, his subordinates were arrested, and he was already very annoyed, but now there are Chen Si and them who are restless!

"Well, it's good to probe their mouths!" Wan Niansheng also agreed with Zeng Qinglong's proposal.

Zeng Qinglong hurriedly left Wan Niansheng's study and went to arrange for someone to inform Chen Si that they had gone.

And above Wan Niansheng's study, in addition to the frequent guests Song Chen and Su Miao, this time there was one more guest - Feng Xi. When Su Miao first heard Wan Niansheng and Zeng Qinglong mention the truth about their five families working together, she already had such an idea, that is, to bring the other three families over and let them hear the truth that they were blinded. This time, Song Chen just told Feng Xi about this, in order to increase credibility and eliminate the last trace of doubt in the hearts of the three of them, Song Chen brought someone over after their own choice. Originally, Su Miao could also bring one, but Song Chen refused to let Su Miao come into contact with other men, so he had to give up. One hearing is enough anyway!

After watching Zeng Qinglong leave, Song Chen and Su Miao also took Feng Xi back to the private room opened by Zhong Wanquan and Chen Si in the restaurant.

Song Chen stuffed Feng Xi through the window and left. Zhong Wanquan and Chen Si, who were waiting for news while drinking tea, hurriedly surrounded them: "How is it?" ”

"It's true! It's all true! When he heard the truth with his own eyes, Feng Xi was heartbroken, "That young man is right, Wan Niansheng and Zeng Qinglong really colluded with the outside, they themselves were treasonous, and they tried to trap us in injustice!" It's so hateful! ”

"Are they really so bold?" Zhong Wanquan's temper is the most urgent, but in fact, he is the least courageous, "They dare to do this kind of thing that harms the country and the people?" That's going to kill your head, right? ”

"It's not just headshots." Chen Sidao, "I'm afraid I still have to be a Zhu clan!" No wonder Zeng Qinglong was so anxious about something a few days ago, what was the most positive about him! Wan Niansheng was thoughtful, he was thinking about something that was usually not shown on his face, and I was afraid that he was already in a hurry! ”

Compared with Zeng Qinglonglai, Chen Si and the others were more disgusted with Wan Niansheng. In this matter, Wan Niansheng not only played the identity of the decision-maker, but also almost all the ideas came out of him alone, they think that sometimes Zeng Qinglong has not been without flaws, but he was just taken by Wan Niansheng at the beginning. This leaves them with no space or time to suspect.

"In that case, although we were fooled enough, we are lucky!" Feng Xi wiped the cold sweat from his face, "Being blinded and fooled has become our advantage now, proving that we are not complicit with them." I don't know what the identity of the boy and girl is, they know this matter so clearly, and they intervene in it. ”

"They are standing on the opposite side of Wan Niansheng, and now they are going to investigate again, could it be people from the imperial court?" Chen Sidao, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, "You see, the skills of that young man and girl are not ordinary people, could it be that they are the masters of the imperial court?" Dedicated to the emperor? ”

When Chen Si said this, others also agreed: "It's like! ”

Song Chen and Su Miao, who were on the roof, glanced at each other when they heard this, they both smiled, and just as they were about to leave, Song Chen saw Zeng Qinglong from a distance and seemed to be coming to the restaurant, and pulled Su Miao to stop.

Zeng Qinglong really came to find Feng Xi, and as soon as he pushed the door, he complained: "Why did you all come here, let me find it easily!" ”

"Brother Zeng is in such a hurry to find us, is there anything wrong?" Who wouldn't be able to act on the spot! Feng Xi sneered in his heart.

"Why did you lower the price of food without saying a word?" Zeng Qinglong tentatively accused them, "Didn't we already have an agreement to advance and retreat together?" ”

"That's what I said-" Chen Si snorted coldly, he glanced at Zeng Qinglong, his eyes were full of disdain, "However, I don't know who violated this agreement first!" ”

Zeng Qinglong didn't have any scheming after all, and he already sighed in his heart when he heard this: "This ...... How do you say that! Our Zengjia Grain Shop and Wan's Grain Shop have always come according to the set grain price! ”

"What the truth is, I'm afraid Brother Zeng also knows the courage." Zhong Wanquan said impatiently, "Why pretend to be ignorant here? In that case, I have fulfilled you. It is true that you have 10,000 taels of free grain from 'over there', but you are counting silver with us at a price higher than the selling price of the Feng'an grain store? ”

"This-" Zeng Qinglong was speechless, he pondered for a long time, and came up with a reason, "This matter is not what you imagined!" In fact, Brother Wan's side took into account that the matter involved a 'third party', and he didn't want us to have too much to do with that side......" He moved the reason that Wan Niansheng told him at the beginning, and tried his best to explain that as long as he could call them to Wanfu, Brother Wan would have a reason to persuade them at that time.

"You're still going to cover it up?" Zhong Wanquan waved his hand, "We all know everything, you don't have to hide it anymore!" You've been abandoned! Accept your fate! ”

Not only Zhong Wanquan had such an attitude, Feng Xi and Chen Si also looked at Zeng Qinglong with disgust and avoidance in their eyes, and they looked like they wanted to cut Zeng Qinglong off immediately.

"How is this possible! With your ability to do thingsβ€”"It's not as good as my big brother." Zeng Qinglong didn't dare to say this sentence, although in his mind, these three people were not even as good as him. At least he had already realized that Brother Wan was doing something for "over there", and these three people had been tricked for so long, and they didn't realize it at all. With their stupid qualifications, how could people cooperate with them!

"Believe it or not!" Feng Xi waved his hand, so that Zhong Wanquan didn't have to argue anymore, and didn't care about Zeng Qinglong's attitude at all, "The cooperation between the three of us and your Zeng Wan family has ended here, and there will be no connection in the future, so you can do it yourself!" "They said it so clearly, Zeng Qinglong only otherwise they would not be abandoned, not denying that they cooperated with a third party, which is already very telling. Naturally, he took this opportunity to completely dissociate himself from them.

Zeng Qinglong originally wanted to "invite" Feng Xi and the three of them to Wanfu to discuss things together, but he didn't expect that it would be disadvantageous for them to become teachers, and he also asked them to directly point out the identity of their abandoned sons. After leaving the door of the private room, the smile on his face that was barely hanging on his face immediately disappeared, and he hurried back to Wanfu in a hurry. He had to quickly inform Wan Niansheng of this fact, so that he could think of countermeasures in time.

If the cooperation with that side cannot be reversed, there is no need for Wan Niansheng to tell him, Zeng Qinglong also knows that this time they may be really lucky!
