Chapter 58 Protection Fees

"Replace the Liu family, that's all!"

As soon as Liu Juntao finished speaking, Xu He and Chen Bin were stunned, and then the two of them laughed out loud, looking at Liu Juntao's eyes full of disdain, as if they were staring at an idiot.

Originally, the two thought that Liu Juntao was going to show favor to the Chen family this time, or directly lead the crowd to join the Chen family.

However, Xu He and Chen Bin never expected that Liu Juntao would want to take the place of the Liu family!

"Is my word funny?"

Liu Juntao was not angry, but said lightly: "I, Liu Juntao, want to do private salt business, but the Liu family won't let me, so I took the opportunity to destroy the Liu family!" The two of you are laughing at me so much now, is it because the Chen family is not ready to let me meddle in the illegal salt business, and is ready to enter the Yanzhou Mansion to monopolize all the illegal salt? ”

As soon as he heard this, the smile on Xu He's face suddenly froze, and he stared at Liu Juntao carefully with a frown, his eyes flickering incessantly, as if he was thinking about something.

And Chen Bin stood up suddenly, slapped the table and said fiercely: "What a gut! You just pretended to show weakness, and now you dare to threaten my Chen family, I think you don't want to live anymore, do you have a loss of heart! ”

Liu Juntao didn't answer, but stared at Chen Bin deadly, with a pair of murderous eyes, as if he would burst out and kill at any time, which made Chen Bin instantly have a feeling of fear, and his forehead was instantly full of sweat beads!

Realizing that he was a little out of shape, Chen Bin snorted coldly, sat down angrily, picked up the teacup to hide his embarrassment, and then continued: "Hmph! You have to understand that for my Chen family, there is no need for the Liu family's position to exist! My Chen family will directly enter Yanzhou Mansion and sell illicit salt to the entire Yanzhou Mansion and even the entire Shandong! ”

Xu He also said coldly: "That's right! What my Chen family can do by itself, I don't need to use others! After all, only your own people are the most assured! ”

"However, my Yushan Ji has now de facto replaced the Liu family! Can the Chen family still enter Yanzhou Mansion smoothly? ”

Liu Juntao said in a deep voice: "Now in the reeds of Yushan and Dongping Lake, almost all the stove households are supplying private salt like me, and I also have my own private salt workshop in Yushanji, and the output is very large!" The Liu family's original illegal salt sales channels have also been controlled by my Yushan Collection, and now the two of you tell me that the Chen family is coming in, is this possible? ”

Xu He and Chen Bin looked at Liu Juntao, who was full of confidence, and couldn't help but hesitate.

However, Chen Bin immediately retorted: "Hmph! As long as it's something that my Chen family wants to do, there's nothing that can't be done! At most, it's just a lot of trouble! ”

"Twists and turns? I'm afraid it doesn't stop there! ”

Xu He looked at Liu Juntao and said word by word: "How do you say this?" Could it be that Yushanji is ready to fight with my Chen family? Are you sure of that? ”

Liu Juntao smiled and said, "That's okay, I'm here today to bring a gentleman under me, and let my gentleman settle an account for the two of you." whether to start fighting, or to continue talking; Do you continue to talk according to the meaning of your Chen family, or do you talk according to the intention of my Liu Juntao, and then make a conclusion after listening, can you? ”

Xu He and Chen Bin glanced at each other, and Chen Bin nodded slightly.

And Xu He looked at Tang Yu next to Liu Juntao, and seeing that he was still young, he bullied Tang Yu for being young and ignorant, and said: "This gentleman should be careful to say that he is not right, but he will die!" ”

If Xu He's words had been placed a year ago, Tang Yu might have been scared when he heard it, and he might not even dare to say a word.

But for more than a year, Tang Yu has experienced so many things with Liu Juntao, first "the town of Bafang", and then the Wang family and the Liu family, every time it is a contest between the corpse mountain and the sea of blood, it can be said that he is used to killing life and death, where will he be timid because of a threat.

"Thank you for the reminder, the juniors will pay attention!"

Tang Yu replied without being humble or arrogant, and then continued: "Just like what we said just now, this time my Yushan Ji is full of sincerity and wants to join forces with the Chen family!" Now, my Yushanji not only occupies the two important places of Huakou Town and Anshan Town, but also controls almost all the stove households in Yushan Reed Dang and Dongping Lake Reed Dang, as long as we practice a sentence, the entire Yanzhou Mansion and even most of Shandong will be completely cut off! ”

"In the same way, as long as we practice a sentence, there is a large amount of private salt rushing into Yanzhou Mansion and even the entire Shandong, even if the Chen family's private salt is killed, it will definitely not be sold at a high price! When the time comes, I'm afraid that the Chen family's private salt will be sold for a pound and lose a pound! ”

Speaking of this, Tang Yu couldn't help but smile, seeing that Xu He and Chen Bin frowned and fell into deep thought, he continued: "And my Yushan Ji Escort Team can be said to be the strongest in the entire Yanzhou Mansion, not only is it strong but also has a large number of people, my Yushan Ji has such strength, can't it replace the original position of the Liu family?" ”

"Settle accounts!"

Xu He said: "What are you going to settle for us?" ”

Tang Yu saw that Xu He and Chen Bin had stopped mentioning the Chen family's own sale of salt into Yanzhou Mansion, and his heart was suddenly happy, and then continued: "Don't worry, listen to me: with my Yushanji's current monthly private salt production is about 260,000 catties, and the monthly harvest is about 3,000 taels of silver. In order to show sincerity, I, Yushanji, am willing to give the Chen family one-third of the harvest every month, that is, one thousand taels of silver, as a sincerity to replace the Liu family. In our words, this can also be called a protection fee, which is used to sell the thoughtfulness of my Yushan set. I don't know, what do you think about it? ”

"Haha!"

As soon as the words fell, Xu He burst out laughing and said, "It's just a thousand taels of silver, are you embarrassed to speak?" It's really a small place, and I haven't seen anything big! ”

"Humph! More than 200,000 catties of private salt, and the monthly harvest is only 3,000 taels? You fools! ”

Chen Bin also scolded loudly, and continued: "Private salt, one pound can have a harvest of about 20 Wen, more than 200,000 catties of private salt, how can you earn five or six thousand taels of silver every month, you only reported 3,000 taels, thinking that we don't know how to count!" ”

Xu He added: "In addition, the Liu family's business in Anshan Town should have also been taken over by your Yushanji." How? Not a word! There has to be a saying for this part! ”

Tang Yu couldn't help frowning when he saw this, and was about to argue.

Liu Juntao waved his hand, stared at the two of them and said: "I came to this Zhang Qiu Town today to discuss the private salt business with the Chen family, and the affairs of Anshan Town have nothing to do with private salt, so don't mention it!" ”

"You!"

At this time, Xu He and Chen Bin were a little angry, and they were about to have a seizure when they stared at Liu Juntao, but they were stopped by Liu Juntao's words.

"For 1,000 taels of silver per month, the private salt collected by my Yushan is still only sold in Shandong, and I will never go out of Shandong. In exchange, your Chen family's private salt can't be sold in Shandong, how about it? ”

Xu He and Chen Bin stood up abruptly when they heard this, obviously both of them were already extremely angry, but they didn't expect Liu Juntao to put forward such a condition, which was absolutely unacceptable to the Chen family.

Chen Bin was already very angry at this time, and shouted at Liu Juntao: "Do you think my Chen family will accept such conditions!" You are declaring war on my Chen family in disguise! ”

Liu Juntao didn't speak when he saw this, he didn't pay attention to Chen Bin at all, just drank tea by himself, and the two sides fell into a stalemate in a blink of an eye.

Seeing this, Tang Yu smiled and said, "Don't be impatient, sit down first." As the saying goes, there are comings and goings for business! You two might as well talk about the conditions of your Chen family, and Mr. Lian and I will also listen to it. ”

At this time, Xu He and Chen Bin were slightly stunned, before the two set off, although Chen Herui, the head of the Chen family, asked the two to try their best to suppress Yushanji, but did not set any specific conditions, nor did they tell the two how to suppress Yushanji.

At this time, the two of them suddenly said one, two, and three, Xu He and Chen Bin really didn't know what to do! In case the conditions proposed by the two do not meet the wishes of the head of the family, Chen Herui, the two will inevitably be punished after they go back.

"There's a problem!"

Liu Juntao and Tang Yu discovered the strangeness of Xu He and Chen Bin almost at the same time, but in an instant, the two of them became clear in their hearts, and understood that there must be something wrong within the Chen family!

At this time, Liu Juntao took advantage of Xu He and Chen Bin's hesitation to think to himself, and then laughed out loud and said, "What's wrong with the two of you?" What conditions does the Chen family have, even if they say it, why are they so embarrassed? Could it be that the head of the Chen family didn't even think about the conditions for this meeting? ”

"W-How is this possible?"

Xu He said a little hesitantly, and suddenly Liu Juntao was in his mind, and he suddenly panicked, and Chen Bin's expression next to him was also a little evasive.

The reaction of the two made Liu Juntao and Tang Yu even more convinced of their judgment, there must be something wrong on the Chen family's side, so that there was no consensus internally, this is a good opportunity!

At this time, Chen Bin didn't know what to say next, Xu He pondered for a while, and said: "The condition of my Chen family is that you Yushanji will hand over 4,000 taels of silver and 1,000 catties of private salt every month; Moreover, once something happens to my Chen family, you Yushanji must listen to the announcement and do not hesitate! ”

"It can't be!"

Tang Yu said immediately, with anger on his face.

After all, according to the conditions of the Chen family, Yushanji's income will be greatly affected, and once something happens to the Chen family, Yushanji will most likely be pushed out as cannon fodder!

Liu Juntao also shook his head with a smile and said, "Your Chen family can't accept our conditions, but your Chen family's conditions are not something we can accept." That's not easy! ”

"Humph! Not easy to do? What can you do! ”

Chen Bin said coldly: "My Chen family is willing to talk to you and let you make some money, this is a great kindness, be content!" Otherwise, we'll only have to lick the blood on the tip of the knife! ”

Where was Liu Juntao frightened by Chen Bin's words?

Looking at Chen Bin, Liu Juntao said coldly: "Since we both insist on our own words, then I will come up with an idea, let's win or lose in our fists and feet!" ”
