Chapter 239: Conspiracy

As a shrewd businessman, Sun Manbo should first value his own life, and then he should value interests, as for the national righteousness, he may be a little bit but certainly not very heavy, so Shi Bin does not intend to reveal all his thoughts to him, only said that he wants him to sell salt to the Yuan people and to sell good salt seriously, so that the Yuan people can not feel that he is playing tricks, let alone make him suspicious.

Seeing that Shi Bin promised to let him go, and after having hope of life, Sun Manbo calmed down again, and thought carefully about what Shi Bin asked him to do - sell salt seriously. If things are abnormal, there must be demons, and the more abnormal they are, the more demons there are. Thinking of this, Sun Manbo was already in a cold sweat. Standing up tremblingly, he stammered and asked, "Big... My lord, can you tell the villain what this means? ”

Naturally, he wouldn't answer this question, Shi Bin just had a murderous look in his eyes. Seeing Shi Bin's reaction, Sun Manbo immediately fell to the ground again, kowtowed vigorously to apologize, saying that he shouldn't have asked this question.

Although I was dissatisfied with Sun Manpo's questioning just now, and I was also dissatisfied with his servion, I admired his ability to observe words and feelings.

I was about to open my mouth and tell again, but I didn't expect Sun Manbo to pluck up the courage to say: "My lord, villain, thank you for your life, you can be born and die for you, but you don't have a penny, it's okay." But I want you to do the villain a favor, that is... Can the villain's family ask you to help take care of it? Especially my son, I am the only seedling, and the Sun family is also a wealthy family, and the bloodline must not be broken. ”

Since ancient times, China has been unfilial piety, and Sun Manbo's words were expected by Shi Bin a long time ago. What's more, he originally wanted to keep Sun Manbo's family in his hands, which could be regarded as an insurance policy for this operation. Unexpectedly, Sun Manbo actually took the initiative to mention it, so it would naturally be better. Of course, Shi Bin agreed without hesitation, and said that even if Sun Manbo died, it would be regarded as a sacrifice and would not confiscate his family property.

The two finally negotiated, and they both put their minds at ease, in order to make Sun Manbo more comfortable, Shi Bin told some of his experiences, and insisted that the Yuan people were a group of rabble that was about to collapse at the touch of a button...

After leaving Sun's Mansion, Sai Zilong asked, "My lord, although Sun Manbo is still a little useful, you don't have to be so wooed, right?" I don't understand why you want him to sell salt to the Yuan people, and he has to sell good salt. Of course, you are absolutely loyal to the Great Song Dynasty, but is it too much to make such a risky move? ”

"Thank you Zilong for your concern, but this matter is not at all. Except for our own people, the rest of us don't know about our entry and exit from Sun's mansion, even if Sun Manbo doesn't care about his family and takes refuge in Yuanren, he can't pull us into the water. And he must have hired the labor to carry salt, and he didn't have that many people. We can do some hands and feet in labor, and if the situation allows, we can do some hands and feet on the salt. Shi Bin smiled confidently.

I see, after Shi Bin's words are finished, Sai Zilong will completely understand his intentions, this is to pit the Yuan people again. However, before the smile was fully revealed, Sai Zilong froze, "My lord, now that you are the Jingnan transfer envoy, has this hand been stretched out again?" Even if your father-in-law is Lord Jia, he can't use you without the generals on Jinghu North Road. ”

I was very happy that Sai Zilong was as careful as a hair, but Shi Bin said that this time he did not send troops to fight, but relied on strategies to make meritorious contributions. Sai Zilong, who knew this, immediately became less comfortable.

Of course, Shi Bin knew this, and immediately started ideological work for him. Shi Bin talked for an hour, although Sai Zilong still felt a little uncomfortable, but he was also a bandit leader, and he had a view of the overall situation, and he was not so unhappy when he thought that this credit was given to his boss's father-in-law, after all, the stronger Jia Rudao was, the better it was for Shi Bin.

In order to show that he was not so intolerant, Sai Zilong said: "My lord, then we will go to Lord Jia's mansion tomorrow to discuss with him." Let's see his attitude towards transporting salt to the Yuan people and how to fight the Yuan people next once this plan is successful. ”

It was late and he had been talking with Sun Manbo all day, and he was already exhausted, Shi Bin naturally completely agreed with Sai Zilong's opinion, and after leaving a few secret whistles, he quickly returned to the inn to rest.

On the second day, Shi Bin got up very early and called Sai Zilong, who was about to lie in bed, from the bed, which made him very confused. How can there be such a positive person who gives credit, even his own brother should not be like this. So he asked again, but this time not only did he not get an answer, but he was also reprimanded by Shi Bin. In this case, he had no choice but to follow Shi Bin to Jiafu with questions.

The doorman saw that it was his uncle again, and this time there were no more accidents, and he took Shi Bin directly to Jia Nidao's study.

In recent months, he has received Shi Bin's dividends on time, and Jia Rudao saw him with a smile on his face, although he came to Ezhou again unexpectedly, but he was not unhappy at all.

"Why did the virtuous son-in-law come today, is there anything important?" After asking, he got up and walked to the door to look left and right, and asked Chong Shibin: "Why didn't Ling'er see it, didn't this crazy girl know that she came to say hello?" ”

"My father-in-law blamed Ling'er, this time it was my son-in-law who came to Ezhou alone, and Xiaoling didn't come. The son-in-law is indeed here this time, and it is a great thing. Shi Bin replied with a smile.

Although Shi Bin often laughs at Mimi, he never talks nonsense to achieve his goals, so he said that most of the good things are still credible, and Jia Yidao immediately asked what kind of good things it was.

"Father-in-law, I recently caught a merchant who had a private salt transaction with Yuan Ren before, and now Yuan Ren is nervous about salt and wants him to sell salt in the past. However, he still had some conscience and didn't want to betray the Great Song Dynasty like this again, but he was threatened by the Yuan people, so he was in a dilemma. After talking to him about some conditions, he has now returned to his son-in-law, so I want to make a fuss about this. Shi Bin glanced at Jia Yidao meaningfully.

"Is this shameless person who sells salt to an enemy country for money worthy of trust? Do you have a few insurances? ”

"Yes. He took the initiative to give his family to his son-in-law to 'take care of'. Shi Bin immediately said, "Now that his whole family is under my surveillance, he doesn't dare to avoid me and collude with the Yuan people in private if he has scruples." ”

In Jia Rudao's opinion, this is just a very ordinary insurance, useless to ruthless people, he himself loves money like life, how can he not take advantage of this opportunity? So he snorted coldly and said, "Virtuous son-in-law, you are still too naïve to know the world. With just a few family members in hand, where can I do security? Didn't he say anything else? ”

Although Jia Rudao didn't say it explicitly, Shi Bin also knew that he had something to say, but he just wanted to cut off a few catties of Sun Man's bowl, maybe he wanted to eat him all and save only one life.

Shi Bin, who wanted to give Yuanren another blow, couldn't take care of Sun Manbo, and decided to help say two good words when the time came, "Father-in-law, although Sun Manbo has made some black money, his heart is still in the Great Song Dynasty, not to mention that it is valuable to us for the time being, it is better not to push him too much, it should be almost enough to punish him with half of his family wealth, and it is best to punish him after the matter is done." What do you think? ”

Jia Rudao is also a smart person, and he knows that he can't put the cart before the horse, not to mention that if he really makes a meritorious service, it will be much more useful than a few taels of silver, so he replied very happily: "Okay, then don't talk about that for the time being, you tell me what you plan first." ”

"Since the Yuan man wants salt, let's give him salt, but it's good to do some tricks and feet in this." Seeing that Jia Rudao immediately became attentive after hearing this, Shi Bin then said: "The transportation labor of ordinary merchants is definitely not enough to hire in the labor market, and the son-in-law has set up some secret sentinels in Ezhou so that they can pretend to be laborers to transport salt, so that they are unknowingly mixed into the city of the Yuan people, and the matter after that, I will ask my father-in-law to decide..."

I thought that Shi Bin would have something to say, but I didn't expect that he only put forward an idea, and he didn't say that he wanted to be the chief of the operation, which made Jia Yidao very surprised. This is just giving him credit for Jia Yidao, which makes him feel embarrassed as a cheeky person.

Jia Rudao, an old slippery head, didn't believe that pie would fall from the sky, even if it was Shi Bin, a fairly kind son-in-law, he didn't believe it. So he said, "The benefits of the virtuous son-in-law are too great, I'm afraid I can't accept it, father-in-law, or what do you think of us acting together?" ”

Since Jia Yidao took the initiative to invite Shi Bin to accept it, he asked him what to do next after the agent infiltrated.

"Virtuous son-in-law, I want to use this to capture Nanyang and not give up again."

never expected that Jia Nidao, who was greedy for life and afraid of death, would actually want to recover Nanyang, which made Shi Bin very surprised. As a son-in-law, Shi Bin naturally cared about Jia Yidao, so he immediately reminded, "Father-in-law, are you not joking? It's okay to joke now, but if you send troops, you can't change the order overnight. ”

But this time, Jia Rudao didn't care, and said with a confident smile: "Father-in-law, I'm definitely not joking, I'm not afraid!" There is a virtuous son-in-law, and I'm not afraid that this old guy is surrounded by the Yuan people, hahaha! ”

It turned out that his father-in-law wanted him Shi Bin to be a guard, which made him a little slanderous, but this could indeed increase his strength, and it was not impossible. After thinking clearly, Shi Bin immediately agreed, and said that he would do his best to protect Jia Yidao's safety and take Nanyang.

After clarifying the overall situation, then there are specific small things, first of all, whose army is used as the vanguard. Since Shi Bin is his son-in-law Jia Nidao, Shi Bin's army naturally can't be used as cannon fodder, and after thinking about it carefully, Jia Nidao decided to use Zheng Qingzhi's protégé You Yan as cannon fodder, and Lu Wende's army sat in the rear to ensure his retreat.

Seeing Jia Yidao's deployment, Shi Bin couldn't cry or laugh. At the beginning, he said that he wanted to capture Nanyang and defend the city, then he wanted to protect himself one step at a time, and then he used a big future suitable for attack to defend the back road, and sighed that Jia Yidao was really greedy enough for life and afraid of death.

Naturally, the words couldn't be spoken, and Jia Rudao definitely couldn't have an accident, Shi Bin immediately said: "Father-in-law is so cautious, too many generals in my Great Song Dynasty just don't know how to be cautious and fall for the Yuan people's plan." ”

Although he was a little sick to his stomach when he said it, Jia Rudao, a feudal official who was greedy for life and afraid of death, was willing to go on the expedition, which made Shi Bin a lot happy, and he felt a little light on his face and a sense of accomplishment.

After saying that, Shi Bin went out of the study and joined Sai Zilong who was waiting outside. He naturally wanted to tell these things and consult Sai Zilong, and after hearing Jia Rudao's attitude towards Sun Manbo, Sai Zilong's attitude towards the fine became firmer.

Seeing this situation, Shi Bin regretted it a little, but he had to compromise, just emphasizing that Sun Manbo should not be forced to have no way out, and he had to leave a glimmer of life in case he jumped off the wall in a hurry, and maybe he would be useful in the future.
