Chapter 34: Arrogant to the extreme

When the scene was quiet, Goatehu said, "Do you have any other suggestions?"

"I have a different suggestion!"

At this moment, a crack bandit leader stood up and said:

"Six leaders, I suggest waiting for the big leaders to come back before making a decision.

Attacking the Earl's Mansion in Jiannan is not a trivial matter, this time Tuxiong Long Gongzi brought more than 2,000 brothers to it, and the whole army was wiped out, which shows that the private army of the Earl's Mansion is very strong in combat.

Now, the five leaders including the big leader have taken away most of the people in the Black Wind Village, and there are only less than 4,000 brothers left here, and we can't attack the Jiannan Earl's Mansion at all.

If we forcibly attack the Earl's Mansion in Jiannan, we may even alarm the officers and soldiers. If the official army also comes to encircle and suppress us, it will inevitably lead to the same desperate road as the eldest prince.

Therefore, I suggest that we wait for the Great Leader to bring people back before discussing the attack on the Earl's Palace!"

When the goatee old man heard this, his eyes flashed: "Everyone, I think what Rong Laosan said makes sense!"

The little bandit leaders below, you look at me, I look at you, and in the end, no one spoke again.

......

Chen Lingxiao lay on the bed, reached out and took out a small notebook from his arms, and took out a ballpoint pen.

opened the enemy record and added a few words to it: Raze the Black Wind Village!

Then, he took out another volume of maps, which were drawn by the Earl Chen Zhan, and were about the terrain of the Black Wind Ridge.

In the middle of it is a basin, much larger than the southern city of Zhijian, which can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people, surrounded by treacherous mountains on three sides, and by the sea on the other side, there is a natural harbor type harbor.

The Black Wind Village is located in that basin, and there is a river that originates from the top of the mountain, crosses the basin and finally joins the sea.

If you want to enter the Black Wind Village on land, there are two entrances, one in the direction of the Chu State and the other in the direction of the Jin Kingdom.

The entrance in the direction of Chu is called Flying Eagle Pass;

At the entrance in the direction of the Jin Kingdom, it is close to the fiefdom of the Earl's Palace, called Hukou Pass.

From the names of these two entrances, it can be seen that it belongs to the kind of Xiongguan Pass that is not open by one man.

The bandits of Black Wind Village, as long as they stationed a small number of troops in Feiying Pass and Hukou Pass, can hold firmly and not let an enemy in.

It is feasible to attack Black Wind Village from the sea, but the problem is that the sailors of the surrounding countries are not strong, and they are not even as strong as the bandit sailors of Black Wind Village.

In the feudal era, the country did not pay much attention to the construction of sailors, and the maritime trade was not very developed, so they did not spend a lot of money to build large ships and train sailors.

To build a powerful fleet of sailors, the amount of gold required is sky-high.

Input and output are too disproportionate.

"This Black Wind Village and Black Wind Ridge are really a treasure of feng shui!"

Chen Lingxiao muttered to himself: "I want this treasure land, let it become my first base for dominating the world!" Count Chen Zhan, you have not completed the great cause, let me Chen Lingxiao complete it for you!"

After he took the Black Wind Village, he planned to build factories, shipyards, and soldiers in the basin, and build this territory into a large base.

After making a decision, Chen Lingxiao thought about it carefully.

The next day, he got up early and went to look for spices for the Dongpo meat seasoning package......

Fast forward to three days later.

Chen Lingxiao returned to the Earl's Court in a good mood, because he had finally collected all the materials for making Dongpo Meat Seasoning Packets in the surrounding mountains and Jiannan City.

He had assigned his men to go to the bazaar to buy in large quantities, and on the other hand to go into the mountains to dig up large quantities of spices that could not be purchased.

Of course, the personnel sent by Chen Lingxiao were all subordinates loyal to the Earl's Court.

After completing this, he was in a good mood, humming a little song and preparing to go to his father and ask the other party for information about the Jin Kingdom, as well as information about the surrounding countries.

Know yourself and know your opponent, and win all battles.

If Chen Lingxiao wants to rebel and become emperor, he naturally needs to understand the enemy's information, understand the changes in the current situation, choose the most suitable time, and rise up.

However, before rebelling, you must be prepared.

Rebellion is an extremely high-risk thing, and there is a possibility of losing your head at any time, so how can you do it if you are not prepared?

At this moment, Chen Lingxiao saw a group of people, led by the butler of the Earl's Palace, walking towards the meeting room.

This group of people all showed a swaggering demeanor, as if they were superior to others, and the leader was a young man with a white beard and an arrogant face.

Seeing this, Chen Lingxiao was curious.

He stepped forward and said to the housekeeper, "Steward Xu, who are they?"

"Shizi, they are from the Evergreen Money Village under the Evergreen Business Alliance, and they have come to our Earl's Mansion to collect debts!" Steward Xu whispered.

Syllable!

As soon as Steward Xu's words fell, there was a crisp slap!

Steward Xu was knocked to the ground, with bright red fingerprints on his cheeks.

And the beater was the white-bearded young man in brocade, whose attitude was extremely arrogant: "Hurry up and take us to see Jian Nanbo, we don't have time to waste here!"

"How can you hit someone?"

Chen Lingxiao was angered by the other party's arrogant behavior, and asked coldly.

The brocade-clothed young man sneered: "The person who wastes my time should be beaten! You stupid son, if you waste my time crookedly, you will be beaten together!"

Damn, this bastard really doesn't take Jiannan's Earl Mansion too seriously, I'm going to make him regret it!

Chen Lingxiao secretly decided.

"Shizi, I'm fine, let's go see the Earl first!" Steward Xu covered his red and swollen cheeks and hurriedly said.

The young man in brocade snorted coldly: "Then don't go quickly!"

......

Soon, Steward Xu took the young man in brocade and met Count Jiannan.

Chen Nan looked at the young man and said, "Are you?"

"This is the eldest son of Lan Hesheng, the head of the Southwest Cent Village of the Evergreen Money Village, Lan Xiaoyan!"

Lan Xiaoyan held his head high and his chest straight, with a proud expression.

When Jian Nanbo heard this, he smiled and said, "It turned out to be Gongzi Lan, I don't know what you came to the Earl's Mansion today?"

"Jian Nanbo, the 500,000 gold coins you owe me to the Evergreen Money Village will expire in 20 days, and there will be a total of 525,000 gold coins including interest. My dad asked me to ask, can you return it then?" said the young man in brocade with a strange yin and yang qi.

Chen Nan fell silent.

525,000 gold coins, he really couldn't raise them all.

Coupled with the fact that Chen Lingxiao copied Hu Sandao's old bottom a few days ago, the Earl's Mansion only has a total of more than 60,000 gold coins, and even if the antique calligraphy and paintings are sold, it is less than 100,000 gold coins.

Nowadays, the monarch vigorously pursues the new policy, and the feudal domain is constantly cut, and other money banks are reluctant to lend to old nobles such as Jian Nanbo.

Chen Nan sighed and said truthfully: "Young Master Lan, I can't hide it, my Earl's Mansion is temporarily unable to collect the principal and interest. For the sake of our ongoing cooperation, I implore Evergreen Money to extend the account period for a few more years!"

"So?"

Lan Xiaoyan showed a strange smile on his face, and said, "It's not impossible, as long as Jian Nanbo agrees to our two requests, we can extend the account period for 3 years." ”

"What a request, you say!" Jian Nanbo looked at the other party.

Lan Xiaoyan's Yin Yang Strange Qi Dao:

"My father said, one of them is Chen Ruoxi, the righteous daughter of the Earl's Palace, who is allowed to be married to my son as a wife;

The second is to give me the salt mine to develop in Changqing Qianzhuang. If the Count could accede to these two requests, the period of the account would be extended by three years. ”

When Chen Nan heard this, the look on his face became ugly.

Chen Lingxiao, who had no words on the side, was laughed at directly.
