|||->-> Chapter 691 Redeem Liaoning

Due to the redemption of the land, the atmosphere of Shi Bin and Ali Buge meeting in Fengtian was not very good, among them, Shi Bin even set up a bureau for Ali Buge, and Ali Buge took short hands and ate people's mouths, and both of them were a little embarrassed. Therefore, although Shi Bin and Ali Buge call themselves brothers, they are not very natural.

Of course, it can't be so unnatural and deadlocked, Shi Bin spoke first: "Big brother, I haven't seen you for many days and heard that you have managed Dayuan in an orderly manner, and my brother is very happy and admires it when he hears it." If it were me, I am afraid that I would not be able to subdue so many unruly tribal leaders in such a short period of time. ”

The words were naturally good words, but Brother Ali Bu didn't have the heart to listen, and said a little coldly: "Brother Xian is too modest, how can your ability be worse than mine?" Okay, let's stop talking nonsense and get down to business. ”

"Yes, yes, yes, it's about talking quickly. The younger brother almost forgot that the eldest brother is now the Emperor of the Great Yuan, and he has every opportunity, unlike me, a great Song courtier, who can run around without any scruples. Although he already knew Ali Buge's attitude towards his own land redemption, Shi Bin still asked with a smile, "Big brother, the younger brother wants to redeem some land, may I ask if the eldest brother allows it?" ”

After listening to Shi Bin's words, Brother Ali Buge did not answer immediately, but lowered his head and kept silent. The redemption of the land is so important, and now Ali Buge is so noble, Shi Bin does not dare to show the slightest impatience, let alone urge. Even if Shi Bin knew that it was Brother Ali Buge who was hanging his appetite, he could only sit in the room and wait quietly for Brother Ali Buge's answer.

It didn't take long for Ali Buge's reply to come: a part of the land could be redeemed, but it would be exchanged for money, goods, or actions of equal value.

The conditions offered by Ali Buge made Shi Bin very happy, because with this first step, there will be a second step, as long as there are no problems, the goal of rebuilding the capital will always be achieved one day.

"Big brother, the little brother of the plan you proposed is very much in agreement, everything should be like this." Shi Bin smiled, "That means that the eldest brother is willing to let me redeem Liaoning?" ”

"You can say that, but I'm afraid it won't be that easy..." Brother Ali Buge smiled sincerely.

I understood very well what Brother Ali Bu meant when he said 'it won't be so easy', Shi Bin didn't poke it at once, but said: "Please rest assured, big brother, those stumbling blocks will be moved away by my brother and I myself, and in the end, I may also ask my eldest brother to help." Please also ask the eldest brother to remember to let me redeem Liaoning when the time comes. ”

"Please rest assured, I, the eldest brother, will definitely help my brother. I'm also the emperor of Dayuan, how can I break my word and get fat? Isn't that too embarrassing for me? Shi Bin feigned anger. Perhaps because he was afraid that Shi Bin's carelessness would lead to failure and cause trouble, Ali Buge said again: "But for brother, I have to advise you to be careful, those guys are more powerful than you think, they are not as obedient as you Song officials." And the power is greater than that of your Tang Dynasty. ”

In order to reassure Brother Ali Bu, Shi Bin said with a smile: "Big brother, the younger brother has always planned and then acted, and never acted recklessly. And it's not difficult to deal with them, just let them fight among themselves, but after the fight, you have to ask the eldest brother to cooperate. ”

Letting the enemy fight among themselves is indeed the easiest and most effective strategy to win, and after hearing Shi Bin's words, Ali Buge relieved himself and said that once there was infighting among those tribes who opposed the redemption, he would immediately intervene to remove the leader.

After discussing it, Shi Bin began to move. It has never been unequal but not outnumbered, and under the instigation of Shi Bin, a well-intentioned person, those tribes who oppose redemption have become very unstable because of internal interest struggles. After discovering that these things were wrong, the tribal leader put pressure on Ali Buge while calming down the internal contradictions, asking Ali Buge to sever contact with the Great Song Dynasty.

Such a demand naturally infringes on the interests of the majority of the people and provokes public outrage. You must know that most of the Yuan people now owe debts to the Great Song Dynasty, and the Great Song Dynasty is now strong, how dare they unilaterally tear up the treaty?

Therefore, this request did not put any pressure on Ali Buge, but he still was

Use this to urge Shi Bin to hurry up and get things done, so that he can replace the tribal leader. This situation made Shi Bin feel a little interesting, because he found that he had actually done Ali Buge a great favor and helped him remove many obstacles to domination.

"Xu Feng, let me ask you a question."

"Your Excellency, please speak."

"Do you think we're doing this for ourselves?" Shi Bin said.

This sentence made Xu Feng feel a little confused, didn't he try his best to provoke the fight of those tribes to recapture Liaoning for himself or for the sake of others?

"Looks like you don't get it." Shi Bin smiled, "I mean, we provoked those tribal infighting against redemption, is it only beneficial to us?" ”

Saying this, Xu Feng immediately understood, and laughed: "My lord is really wise, of course this is not only beneficial to us, but also to him Ali Buge." We seem to have helped him solve a lot of opponents, my lord, we can't do so much for nothing. ”

"Xu Feng, Xu Feng, are you too powerful?" Shi Bin smiled helplessly.

"The adults misunderstood, it's not that the lowly position is powerful, the lowly position actually has nothing to do with it, and I didn't help the adult much this time. If the two ladies knew in the future that the adults were not fighting for their own interests, I am afraid that they would not let the adults have a good time. ”

Thinking that there were still such two iron roosters at home, Shi Bin had to smile awkwardly and said, "Hey... That's true, then thank you Xu Feng for reminding me. Now that the heat is almost the same, Ali Buge will take those guys under the knife in half a month. We have to talk to Ali Buge as soon as possible, otherwise we will miss this good time. ”

"My lord, it's better to ask Ali Buge to meet tomorrow and talk to him about the specific details."

"Okay, then you can arrange it. The sooner the better. Thinking that he had been away from Lin'an for two months, Shi Bin immediately urged.

Ali Buge also wanted to reach an agreement as soon as possible and consolidate his rule as soon as possible, so he quickly agreed to meet with Shi Bin.

The next day, at two o'clock, outside the city of Mukden.

"Big brother, now that the preparations are done, you just need to send someone to ask for the guilt. I'm sure you'll find a replacement who supports your rule and is obedient as a tribal leader. Shi Bin smiled.

"This is also thanks to the help of Brother Xian, I am afraid that I can't do it alone." Ali Buge said modestly.

"Big brother is humble, we don't have much time, let's talk about the specific details of the redemption."

"That's right, you haven't been away from Lin'an for a short time, you want to go back as soon as possible." Brother Ali Buge nodded and said, "You said you want to redeem Liaoning, what price do you plan to pay?" ”

"Big brother, little brother wants to talk to you about something else before this. How about the eldest brother please think about this matter in conjunction with the redemption of Liaoning? ”

Of course, Brother Ali agreed to this, he didn't want to be resented after the matter was done.

"Big brother, have you also swept away a lot of political enemies through this incident?"

"That's true, thanks to the help of the virtuous brother. Actually, it's not a big deal for you to redeem a piece of land, after all, you have also swept away at least five powerful political enemies for me, helping me consolidate my rule. ”

"Thank you very much for the eldest brother to think so, the younger brother just wants the eldest brother to reduce some ransom for the sake of me helping to sweep away some political enemies." Shi Bin smiled sincerely.

Immediately regretting what he said, Ali Buge had an urge to cut his tongue and beat Shi Bin violently. It's just that none of this is possible, so he has to suppress his anger and bow his head to think. It's a pity that I can't think of a way in a hurry, so I can only nod my head in agreement, and talk about it when the time comes.

"Big brother, the ransom I give is half of the silver taels and supplies you owe now." Shi Bin said with a smile.

In other words, the ransom in Liaoning was 500,000 taels of silver. The price of buying such a piece of land for 500,000 taels of silver is actually a bit low, but it is not unreasonable. Because Shi Bin helped Ali Buge remove many obstacles to domination this time.

Having said that, this is a matter for the state, not for Ali Buge alone, so he can't agree like this, he doesn't want to be scolded as a traitor.

"Brother, although my Dayuan can't effectively control Liaoning, you shouldn't just give such a small ransom, this is a bit of a bully." Ali Buge said in an unkind tone.

"Big brother, please don't be angry, I'm talking about it on behalf of Da Song now, I don't dare to talk about my personal feelings, I'm really sorry. After this incident, the younger brother must set up a wine to apologize. Shi Bin smiled.

"Big brother understands, I'm not angry, I just think you Song people are too shrewd." Ali Buge said with a smile, "I hope that Da Song will not only exempt us from all the money and materials we borrowed, but also give us materials worth 200,000 taels of silver." ”

The bastard actually scolded me for being shrewd! I paid a ransom of 500,000 taels, but he asked for 1.2 million taels, insatiable! Shi Bin secretly scolded after hearing Ali Buge's conditions.

"My lord, don't forget Madame." Xu Feng secretly leaned into Shi Bin's ear and said.

Don't forget Madame? What do you mean? After thinking about it carefully, Shi Bin suddenly realized, and immediately said with a bitter face: "Big brother, you are bullying me." I will give 500,000 taels, but you will ask for 1.2 million taels, is it too much? ”

"The price is all over the place, pay back the money on the spot, you and my brother are all negotiable. I believe that a deal will not ruin our friendship. Ali Buge laughed.

"Big brother, I don't agree with this, if you're not careful, it will really ruin our friendship." Shi Bin continued to say with a bitter face, looking at that look like he was about to cry.

Of course, he knew that Shi Bin was making a play, but Brother Ali Bu still wanted to know why Shi Bin was doing this, so he asked with a smile: "Okay, then please tell my brother why such a deal will affect the relationship between you and me." ”

"Big brother, if there is only one side of the court, I am not afraid. But the eldest brother forgot about the other side. Shi Bin sighed and said, "That's my two wives." ”

Although he had already learned the power of Jia Ling and Sai Xishi, Ali Buge still couldn't think of what the negotiation of redeeming Liaoning had to do with those two women.

"Big brother, you don't understand, do you?" Shi Bin smiled, "My two ladies have never suffered losses, if you know that I have helped you so much, and you still need such a high ransom, so that I will be scolded in the court, do you think they will give up?" Although they can't block you, the Great Yuan Emperor, they can definitely interfere with the relationship between you and me, and they still have the ability to meddle in Shangfu. ”

I have to say that Shi Bin is reasonable, but Brother Ali Buge doesn't want to back down. This led to a stalemate between the two sides, and things went wrong.

"Two, I want to say something, I don't know if it's okay?" Xu Feng said.

"Say." Originally, I didn't like Xu Feng, the smart Shi Bin's chief of guard, but now that he is in a stalemate, Brother Ali has no choice but to agree.

"My lord, the villain suggests that the one million dollars in money and materials only need to be repaid 200,000, of which 800,000 will be directly exempted. The lord asked the emperor to lend the Great Khan another 200,000 taels of silver. How about paying these back in five years? ”

It was an attractive proposition, and the mood eased a lot.

"Big brother, what do you think of Xu Feng's suggestion?" Shi Bin asked.

"Not bad, that means we only need to pay back 400,000 dollars worth of money and materials in five years?"

"Money and materials don't matter, as long as it's worth 400,000 taels of silver."

"It seems that 200,000 taels of silver still have to be interested, right? Can you do these without interest? ”

Listening to Arab's words, Shi Bin scolded again in his heart. However, the matter was only one step away from success, and Da Song was not short of this interest, so Shi Bin finally agreed.

It didn't take long for Ali Buge to reach this agreement with Shi Bin. It was agreed that the Yuan people would return Liaoning to the Great Song Dynasty after ten days, and at the same time, the Great Song Dynasty would allocate materials worth 200,000 taels of silver to the Yuan people within a month. Five years later, the Yuan people returned 400,000 taels of silver or materials of the same value to the Great Song Dynasty.
