Volume 1 Lingdong View Mountain Snow Chapter 115 Extortion of bamboo poles
"What does Erniang want to know?"
Tang Jin's sudden words immediately choked Liu back. Halfway through his body, he moved awkwardly, and finally sat down helplessly. After settling down, Liu asked with a strong pressure on his anger.
"What do you know?"
"I know what I should know and what I shouldn't know, I know a little bit, it depends on what Erniang wants to know and what price she can pay." Tang Jin looked at the other party playfully.
"The price? What do you want? Liu looked at the other party's playful eyes, and had a bad premonition in his heart.
Tang Jin shrugged his shoulders and said with an indifferent expression: "You can do anything, money, shops, or information that I think is useful, and anything I can use and be interested in, it's not about what I want, it's what you have." You bid, then you ask questions, and if I think it's appropriate, I'll tell you the answer. ”
"Okay." Liu Shi said without hesitation, and then got up straight and walked to the inside, and after a while, he took out a camphor wooden box the size of an ordinary human head, and after opening it, there were land deeds stacked together, Liu Shi casually took out two and slapped them on the table and said: "Two shops in the south of the city, is it enough?" ”
Tang Jin looked at the other party in some surprise, obviously he didn't expect the other party to be so upright, "Enough, you ask." ”
As he spoke, he kicked the title deed into his arms. Liu Shi was not distressed, and asked casually: "How much do you know about You'er's life experience?" ”
"I don't know at all." Tang Jin replied honestly.
Hearing this, Liu immediately breathed a sigh of relief, the most critical information was not known to the other party, which proved that he had not reached a dead end, but after thinking about it, he felt that he was in a panic, and the two shops ...... In exchange for this? Liu inexplicably has a feeling of being wronged.
But even so, there are some things that still have to be asked, and if you lose, you will lose something, anyway, her Liu family has a big business, and she doesn't care about these shops. Thinking like this, he casually pulled out a land deed, "Ten miles east of the city, 100 acres of fertile land." ”
"Don't." Tang Jin unexpectedly rejected the other party, "Erniang, although I am young, I am not stupid, although the land here in the Eastern Regions is fertile, the weather is cold, and the crops can only be ripened once a year, and the income is too slow, far less fast than the shops." ”
Liu Shi was suddenly helpless, put away the land deeds on the table, and casually took out two more land deeds and said: "In the east of the city, there is a restaurant and an inn." ”
Tang Jin immediately showed a satisfied smile, quickly put away the title deed, and said casually: "You ask." ”
"My relationship with Ye Meng, tell me everything you know." Liu followed up and asked the second question of his greatest concern.
Tang Jin hesitated a little when he heard this, a wicked smile appeared on his face, and he rubbed his hands and said: "Erniang, your two land deeds, at most, can get an answer from me that you know or don't know, and you want to ...... them all Gotta add money. ”
"You don't want to get an inch!" Liu immediately said angrily.
Tang Jin shrugged his shoulders when he heard this, and said indifferently: "I don't care, if you don't add money, I'll go back first, and we'll talk another day." ”
Tang Jin was about to leave, but Liu looked at his shameless appearance, and his silver teeth were almost crushed, but finally he said helplessly: "How much do you want!" ”
"Four more shops!" Tang Jin said loudly.
"Fuck off! There are only three shops left in the hands of the old lady, do you want to love it! Don't just fuck your uncle! Liu couldn't hold back at all, and immediately burst into foul language.
"Then two shops, plus you answer me a question, the question doesn't involve you and your eldest brother, is that okay?" Tang Jin took a step back.
"Yes!" Liu Shi forcibly suppressed his anger, took out two title deeds, and slapped them on the table, "You say it first, and I'll answer your question when I'm done." ”
Tang Jin quickly accepted the title deed, nodded, and was not afraid of the Liu family's breach of contract, and immediately said all the information he knew about Ye Meng and the Liu family. Liu's complexion, which was still red, turned pale little by little, and finally slumped on the stool.
Looking at the other party's appearance, Tang Jin smiled disdainfully, looked at the other party and said, "I'm done, it's time for you to answer my question, right?" ”
"You ask......" Liu said weakly.
"Why, the throne is related to the life and death of one of me and my eldest brother? As far as I understand, you mentioned the man who didn't get the throne...... Will it die? The reason? Although I don't want to see my eldest brother, I won't kill him no matter what, I inherit the throne and he can still be his rich young master, why is his life in danger? ”
When Liu Shi heard Tang Jin's question, his originally pale face became a little ruddy, and he looked at Tang Jin incredulously, and then suddenly laughed, "Hahaha, I thought that with Tang Duo's favor for you, he would tell you 'that incident' in advance, but now it seems that he didn't say it." However, he doesn't say it, and I won't tell you.
Liu said, paused slightly, and said: "According to the ancestral system of the Tang Dynasty, you need to be fifteen years old to be qualified to know. But I don't mind revealing something to you a little bit, you listen, the reason why I want You'er to compete with you for this throne is not that I don't care about the position of King Dongxian, even if I don't inherit the throne, with the financial resources of my Liu family, You'er can live this life in style. But the throne does not represent power, but a kind of shelter, and only by inheriting the throne can you avoid being involved in 'that thing'. That's all you have to say, and you can figure out the rest. Finally, if you want to know, let's find out what 'ten thousand sons take the heir'. ”
"Ten thousand sons?" Tang Jin frowned slightly, chewing on the meaning of these four words, and gradually thought of something in his mind, but the meaning contained in it was too much, and it was impossible to deduce it by relying on just four words.
Seeing that Tang Jin was deep in thought, Liu immediately settled down, coughed lightly, pulled Tang Jin's attention back, and said softly: "Okay, it's up to you to think about it, you won't be able to think of it for a while, let's talk about our affairs." ”
"Shall we?" Tang Jin glanced at the other party strangely, suddenly thought of something, a hint of sinister flashed in his eyes, but his face pretended to be innocent: "The money and goods are clear, is there anything else?" ”
"Okay, the words are all said, there is no need to act, everyone is not stupid, let's say how much hush money do you need?" Liu said directly.
The other party was so direct, Tang Jin didn't bother to pretend anymore, and immediately turned pale and said indifferently: "It depends on how much you are willing to give." ”
"The total income of the Liu Chamber of Commerce in the Eastern Regions for a year." The Liu family immediately reported a number that was impossible to refuse, and even Tang Jin was slightly surprised.
The business of the Liu Chamber of Commerce is spread across all walks of life, and the annual income in the entire Eastern Regions is more than that of the Wang's Mansion, which is definitely an astronomical amount.
But Tang Jin was also taken aback, and then shook his head, "It's better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish, the money will be spent." If Erniang sincerely wants to seal my mouth, I want the ownership of the Liu Chamber of Commerce in the three towns, Wangshu City and Shicha County, and the last one has not been thought about, and I will talk about it later, but the location must be in the Eastern Regions. ”
"Impossible!" The Liu family refused without hesitation, "Although I am a member of the Liu family, I don't have ownership of the Chamber of Commerce, so I can't give it to you." Even if you can, no matter where you want to be in the third place, Wangshu City alone accounts for three-tenths of the Chamber of Commerce's annual income in the Eastern Regions, if you add the other two, you have to account for half of it, this is simply impossible! ”
"Then there's no need to talk about it, I'll go talk to my father tomorrow morning and see what to do with Erniang." Tang Jin got up and left without any care, without the slightest hint of bargaining.
In fact, there is no need to bargain with the other party at all, this matter is completely a seller's market, and the Liu family will either accept it or wait for death, and he is not qualified to bargain at all.
"You...... You stop! Liu stood up suddenly, his face was full of confusion and hesitation, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "I can't do this, I have to write home and ask my father what he means." ”
"Then as soon as possible, I still have to go beforehand." Tang Jin didn't say a word back, and then walked out quickly. Passing by the lake, I saw Tang You who seemed to have been there all the time, Xu was in a good mood, Tang Jin also waved his hand at him, but this time Tang You was confused.
As soon as she walked out of the courtyard gate, Tang Jin heard a violent roar from the courtyard, obviously Tang Jin's bamboo pole hit the sore spot of the Liu family at once, not only making her bleed hard, but also pit the other party's family.
As for whether the Liu family will agree to his conditions, he is not worried at all, if the Liu family and Ye Meng are really stabbed out, not only themselves, but the entire Liu family will have to be buried with them.
According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, if you murder the royal family, you will be punished by the nine clans, not to mention the direct royal family like Tang Jin, and they are not murdered once, but several times, not to mention the nine clans, the ninety clans are enough.
The Liu family is rich and powerful, but compared to the imperial court...... Nothing.
"Tut, I didn't expect the master to be so good at knocking bamboo, it seems that I will knock more in the future, I feel ...... It's cool. ”
