Chapter 32: Negotiation (1)
Song Dongyang now realizes more and more how wise his decision to choose Zhao'an is. If they are like Zhang Quan and them, they attack by force, I am afraid that they will kill the feathers and return home.
This Black Seven is really a unique person, this Black Dragon Cliff gave Song Dongyang too much shock, so that Song Dongyang had to speed up the process and negotiate with Black Seven.
At noon, it was Ah Wu who personally delivered the meal, and when he left, Song Dongyang said, "Slow." ”
"What else does the military master command?"
"I have something I want you to bring to your boss."
"But it doesn't hurt to say that the military master, I will bring it truthfully for the military master."
Song Dongyang took out the letter written by Zhao Changqing from his arms, handed it to Ah Wu, and said solemnly: "Ah Wu, this is a letter written by our general Zhao Changqing, please hand it over to Hei Qi, and tell him that we are sincerely cooperating, and I hope to have an interview with him." ”
Ah Wu took the letter and held it in his arms. Bent down slightly and hugged his fists and said: "Don't worry, Ah Wu will definitely tell the boss the meaning of the military master." ”
In the room, Ah Wu stood in front of the table, handed the letter in his hand to Hei Qi, and said: "Boss, this is the one in the firewood room who asked me to hand it over to you just now, saying that it was a letter written by their general Zhao Changqing, they really want to cooperate with our Black Dragon Cliff, and they also want to have a face-to-face interview with the boss." ”
Hei Qi took the letter, looked at it, and didn't tear it up, just put it aside.
"Okay, I know, you continue to look at Song Dongyang, and once he behaves unusually, come and tell me immediately."
"Yes, my subordinates are commanded." Ah Wu slowly retreated.
After Ah Wu retreated, Hei Qi picked up the letter and read it over and over for a long time, but never opened it.
He stood up, walked slowly around the room, picked up the letter, and opened it.
"Black Seventh Boss, seeing the words is like meeting, I am Zhao Changqing, the general of Peizhou City, and this time I am writing a letter to discuss with Your Excellency.
I heard that the brothers of Heilongzhai led by Your Excellency intercepted the smuggling caravans on the official road, intercepted the smuggled goods, and also helped the people around them, and often sent food to them, and the voice was very good.
I have never dealt with Your Excellency, but I also have admiration for Your Excellency in my heart, this time I sent our deputy general Song Dongyang to the Black Dragon Cliff, hoping to cooperate with Your Excellency to escort this Peizhou City.
Zhao Changqing book. ”
After reading the letter, Hei Qi probably guessed what Zhao Changqing and Song Dongyang meant, saying that they were here to cooperate with him, and they also wanted to have an interview. I must not be able to give this face, so I ordered the people who were waiting at the door to go to the firewood room and tell Song Dongyang that I would see him in the afternoon.
Ah Wu conveyed to Song Dongyang that Hei Qi came to see him in the afternoon. got Song Dongyang's big thanks.
"Ah Wu, thank you so much this time, if the cooperation between the two of us is good, you are really the hero of the two parties."
Ah Wu waved his hand and said humbly: "I dare not be ashamed, this is what the boss means, I just do what I am told, I am here, this is what I should do, I can't afford this thank you from the military master." ”
Song Dongyang's first step was to communicate with Hei Qi, which has been completed, and the next second step is to make the stakes clear and let Hei Qi realize the benefits of cooperation.
After Ah Wu left, Song Dongyang sat on the side of the desk and thought carefully.
Hei Qi, now it seems that not only has a strange mind, but also a person who values love and righteousness, it is no wonder that Heilongzhai has become more and more prosperous over the years, and there are more and more brothers.
There is such a leader, if he puts himself aside, he is willing to follow.
This black seven has no bad habits, is not good for women, and there is not a single concubine in the backyard, but there are two maids in the room who are women. It's not easy to gamble, it is rumored that he is jealous of gambling, if anyone gambles and enters the casino, he is no longer a person from Black Dragon Cliff.
Such a person does not have a trace of weakness.
Song Dongyang was worried about where to start, so that Hei Qi could be shaken, and suddenly remembered Hei Qi's concern for the injured brother, and he had an idea in his heart.
In the afternoon, Hei Qi came to the firewood room alone.
After the entourage at the door saw Hei Qi, he knelt down and said, "My subordinates have seen the boss." ”
After Hei Qi waved them up, he said, "Open the door, I want to go in." ”
"Yes."
One of the attendants removed the key from his waist and opened the door.
Hei Qi walked into the firewood room, and saw Song Dongyang sitting upright on the side of the desk, and there were two cups of hot tea on the desk in front of him, obviously one of which was poured for Hei Qi.
As early as when he saw the boss in the guard road at the door, Song Dongyang prepared the tea.
Hei Qi sat directly opposite Song Dongyang and spoke: "Listen to Ah Wu, you want to see me and talk to me about something, I don't know what it is?" ”
Song Dongyang listened to Hei Qi's words, and did not say that he was here to talk about cooperation. I couldn't grasp Hei Qi's attitude in my heart, so I had to say: "Yes, I want to talk about some cooperation with Boss Hei, I don't know if Boss Hei is interested." ”
"Oh? What is the cooperation, you might as well talk about it. ”
"At noon today, I gave Ah Wu a letter, which is a handwritten letter from our general, and asked him to forward it to the black boss."
"Letter, I know, I also read it, but in that letter, there was no mention of any cooperation, only that I sent you to my Black Dragon Cliff, and I didn't even mention anything."
Zhao Changqing's letter, Song Dongyang didn't know the content, and he didn't know whether the black seven in front of him knew or didn't know that the so-called cooperation he was talking about was actually Zhao'an.
"Since it didn't be said in the letter, then I will say it bluntly, I came to the Black Dragon Cliff this time to find a good way out for the future of the Black Dragon Cliff, so that the brothers on this mountain can have a good errand in the future."
Hei Qi picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, his tone was flat, so that people couldn't hear the waves: "Oh, yes? I don't know what idea Master Song wants to come up with for my Black Dragon Cliff, but I ask Master Jun for advice. ”
Song Dongyang picked up the teapot in front of him, filled Hei Qi's cup with water, and said, "You don't have to call me Master Jun, it sounds awkward, my name is Song Dongyang, if you don't dislike it, just call me Dongyang." ”
Seeing that Song Dongyang had opened the topic, Hei Qi was a little puzzled.
"I'm afraid this is not very good, but if the military master is sincere, then I have no choice but to be respectful and obey my fate, Dongyang. Dongyang, you came to my Black Dragon Cliff this time, what is the matter, what kind of cooperation are you talking about, you might as well say it directly, I am not a person who likes to go around in circles. ”
"Boss, I'm here this time mainly to recruit your village."
Song Dongyang said the purpose of his trip without any embellishment, so that Hei Qi felt his sincerity, but to recruit his own village, isn't this just to make himself surrender to the army, but it sounds better.
"Dongyang, I'm afraid you can't achieve this goal, I don't have the idea of recruiting peace and surrendering at present, my Black Dragon Village is now thriving, why should I go to submit to you?"
Hei Qi was still very calm when he said this, so that people couldn't guess anything.
Song Dongyang was at a loss in his heart, it was said that any leader should have a strong reaction when he heard someone else say Zhao'an, but the black seven in front of him was really too calm, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while.
"Boss, it is true that what you said is true, but in my opinion, this Black Dragon Village has infinite scenery and strength at this time, but a few years later, the war on this border will begin. The Black Dragon Cliff is located on the boundary between the Xiongnu and the Peizhou camp, and if the two armies fight, it will inevitably be affected. After all, this Black Dragon Village is just a cottage, how many troops can stop the army? ”
Hei Qi was silent and squinted at Song Dongyang.
Song Dongyang was stared at by Hei Qi like this, a little uncomfortable, and a little sweat broke out on his forehead.
Obviously, this is just after the Mid-Autumn Festival, although it is a little cool in the morning and evening, but it is still hot at noon.
Hei Qi didn't speak, his slender fingers tapped rhythmically on the table, he had a habit of always tapping his fingers on the table when thinking about problems.
Song Dongyang only thought that Hei Qi was looking at himself, and he couldn't help but be a little nervous, and kept comforting himself in his heart, the more this was the case, the more he couldn't calm down.
Although there was no difference on his face, the beads of sweat that kept coming out of his forehead betrayed him.
Hei Qi pondered Song Dongyang's words, and when he saw the beads of sweat on his forehead, he couldn't help but be a little funny.
"Dongyang, what's wrong with you? Why are you sweating? ”
Song Dongyang raised his hand and wiped it with his sleeve.
"Boss, this is not to tell you, I am still very confident in my heart when I come to the Black Dragon Cliff to recruit peace. But when I saw you taking that group of brothers to intercept that smuggling caravan this morning, I was a little less confident. ”
"Oh, why?" How could Hei Qi not know the reason in his heart, isn't this the purpose of taking him there, to show the power of his Black Dragon Cliff.
"The brothers of this Black Dragon Village have extraordinary martial arts, even on a par with the soldiers of my Peizhou battalion, I am worried about whether I can convince the boss to succeed in recruiting An."
Song Dongyang said all his thoughts and goals, but he didn't arouse Hei Qi's doubts.
He knew that if he was sloppy and sloppy, it would be easy to arouse Hei Qi's suspicion, and simply telling the truth would make Hei Qi's heart shake, so that he could take advantage of the victory to pursue and complete Zhao'an.
Hei Qi's heart was greatly touched, Song Dongyang did not hide his purpose, so that he chose to believe him, and the one who was in him was indeed as he said.
The brothers on the Black Dragon Cliff can't stay on the mountain for a long time, although the people around us call us life-saving bodhisattvas, but our identity as bandits has not changed in the slightest.
The world is already in chaos, Black Dragon Cliff intercepts the smuggling traders, although it has gained benefits, but it has also offended many forces, in the end, it is a very dazzling existence, I don't know how many people here and outside want to eradicate us.
"Dongyang, what you said is not unreasonable, it's just that when my father was still alive, you sent troops to encircle and suppress my Black Dragon Cliff several times, you also know that we are bandits, and officials and bandits have been incompatible since ancient times. I'm afraid you came here this time, and you came back disappointed. ”
Hei Qi's words had some deep meaning, neither made it clear that he accepted Zhao'an, nor did he directly refuse Zhao'an, and threw a difficult problem to Song Dongyang.
