Chapter 1191: Fu Zhu and Hua Xin enter the game
Chengdu, as the capital of Shu State, is a political and economic center, prosperous and wealthy. ***
Wang Can has always encouraged businessmen to do business, and has promoted the development of commerce in Chengdu.
Although there are many merchants, they are under Wang Can's control.
There is a specially planned business district in the south of the city, where merchants gather, there are strange goods, and a large number of merchants come and go, noisy and lively.
This is the commercial area created by Wang Can.
The leader of this area is Hu Bo, who is loyal to Wang Can.
Hu Mansion, in the hall.
Directly above sat a middle-aged man with a fat body and sly eyes and a philistine smile on his face. He was gorgeously dressed, and there was a strong smell of copper all over his body, this person was none other than Hu Bo.
After going to meet Xun You, Hu Bo learned of Wang Can's appointment and was overjoyed.
With his own ability, he also became an official.
In this era, no matter how much talent you have, even if you are rich and rival the country, you are not a top-class person after all. Only by becoming an official is the road to heaven. Hu Bo has Wang Can's support, and he has earned enough benefits for Wang Can, and he is also very rich. But Hu Bo still wants to have an official road in his heart,
Even if it is not for him, it must be planned for future generations.
Hu Bo is loyal to Wang Can, but he is just a businessman who hides in the shadows and has no identity. Now that he has become an official of the household department, although he still has to hide, he has a way out, which is good for his children and grandchildren.
Below the hall, sat three merchants.
These three people came into contact with the people of Fu Xin and Hua Xin, and finally found out where Hua Xin and Hua Xin were located.
The matter of arms trafficking has not yet been finalized, and it will have to be interviewed.
Hu Bo coughed lightly and said in a deep voice: "The king of Shu has issued an order that weapons can be sold to the people of Wei, but the price must be expensive. You are merchants and know what it means to be 'expensive'. In short, how to make Cao Cao spit out more money, how to trap him. You will take 10% of the money you make from the sale of weapons. ”
"Ichisei!"
After hearing this, the three of them showed excited expressions on their faces.
Arms trafficking is not a matter of constant money or two dollars, it is a large trade, at least in 10,000 yuan. If they sell 10,000 stalks, they can draw a thousand; If you sell 100,000 guan, you will have 10,000 guan; If it's a million......
Thinking of the money that was rolling down, the three of them were so excited that their bodies began to tremble.
Businessmen seek profit, and this is true.
Hu Bo snorted coldly and said: "One percent profit is the greatest benefit I will fight for you, and I will not let you suffer." But if some people are insatiable and hide that I want to make more money, you know Lao Tzu's methods. Moreover, you all have a record with the king of Shu and do things that are not conducive to the Shu country, and you know the result. ”
Hu Bo's body was fat, his face was full of meat, and he suddenly became serious, causing the three people below to straighten up at once.
They are all people who follow Hu Bo and know that Hu Bo is domineering.
The three of them nodded again and again like chickens pecking rice, patting their chests to ensure that they would not mess around. Seeing that Hu Bo's expression eased up, the three of them muttered quietly, thinking about how to pit Cao Cao.
The three of them talked, and Hu Bo sat quietly without interjecting.
After the three of them talked for nearly a quarter of an hour, Hu Bo asked, "How is it, have you come up with a way to trap Cao Cao?" If I can't figure it out, I'll find someone else to do it. ”
When the three of them heard this, they held their heads high and said in unison: "I have come up with it, I have already thought it out!" ”
One of the thieves said with a smile: "My lord, we have been in business for many years, and we have done this kind of thing countless times. This time, Cao Cao is willing to be the wrongdoer, of course we have to work hard. Although you can rest assured, we guarantee that Cao Cao will spend a lot of money, but he will not get much benefit, and he will definitely complete the task assigned by the adult. ”
Hu Bo nodded and said in a deep voice: "Can't go wrong, otherwise ......"
Speaking of this, Hu Bo reached out and swiped it around his neck.
The three of them shivered coldly, but they became excited again. The temptation of money is huge, especially if the three of them have figured out a way, it is easy to operate and will not go wrong.
……
To the north of the city, there is a small mountain village thirty miles outside the city.
It's a remote place in the middle of nowhere, full of hillside woods, and rugged roads, and few people come.
There are only a few dozen or so families in the village.
At the entrance of the village, in a grass house, there are two middle-aged people in their forties. These two people were Wang Can's targets, Hua Xin and Fu Zhu, the two sat opposite each other, and a short middle-aged man in a coarse linen dress stood below.
This man was a spy planted in the city to find out the news.
Hua Xin's face was gloomy and he looked very unhappy.
He said coldly: "Not long ago, we plotted to assassinate Wang Zhen, the eldest son of Cai Yong and Wang Can, which caused an uproar. Now that Wang Can has returned, he has asked Shi A to investigate strictly, the situation is grim, and the slightest flaw cannot be revealed. Next time you come to report the news, don't come back empty-handed, you can bring some firewood, or bring some food, so that you can be a real villager, so as not to be targeted. ”
"Yes, villain."
The spy slandered Hua Xin in his heart, but he reported respectfully: "My lord, there is news in the city that Shi A has caught the murderer of the assassination and has been punished. ”
"What? The murderer has been caught! ”
Hua Xin stared at the spy in surprise, and then looked at Fu Zhi. He and Fu Zhu were the culprits in the assassination of Cai Yong and Wang Zhen, the two of them sat upright, why did Shi A catch the murderer?
"What the hell is going on?" ”
The spy replied: "Back to the two adults, the assassination of Cai Yong and Wang Zhen has indeed come to an end, and Wang Can has not continued to investigate." The villain inquired carefully and learned that the identity of the person embedded in the city was exposed, and after being arrested, he took all the assassinations of Cai Yong and Wang Zhen on his body, so that the two adults were not exposed. ”
"Whew!!"
Hua Xin breathed a long sigh of relief and relaxed.
The idea of assassinating Cai Yong and Wang Zhen was proposed by Hua Xin, and sending someone to assassinate them was also an order from Hua Xin. If he is caught by Wang Can, the end will be miserable.
Frustrated, he sighed, "O loyal man! ”
Hua Xin's eyes rolled, looked at the spy, and asked, "How is the purchase of weapons going?" ”
As soon as the assassination came to an end, Hua Xin was relieved.
At the moment, the most important thing is to buy weapons from merchants and capture several craftsmen at the same time.
The spy replied, "Lord Hui, three merchants have been contacted right now. These three merchants have a certain background in Chengdu and have quite a few means, and they can get the weapons used by the Shu army. One of them did not ask for an interview, but the other two businessmen asked to talk to the adults about the price in person, otherwise they would not sell weapons. ”
Hua Xin asked, "Are these three people reliable?" Could it be Wang Can's person? ”
The spy was even more disdainful in his heart, and said: "Don't worry, my lord, the details of the three of them are all clear, and they are absolutely reliable." ”
Hua Xin looked happy and said; "In this case, bring the two merchants who asked for an interview to the village, and we will discuss the price with the two merchants, and knock them on by the way."
Fu Zhu thought for a moment and added, "Invite all three of them and deal with them together." ”
"No!"
The spy nodded in response.
He said, "It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish." When we buy weapons, we can't solve the problem at the root after all. Is there an eyebrow to get rid of the craftsman's businessman? ”
The spy shook his head and said, "The villain once asked three merchants, and these three people unanimously shook their heads in denial, saying that they did not dare to get a craftsman. If there are no weapons, you can cheat, but if there are no craftsmen in the craftsman's workshop, this will be thoroughly investigated. They were sure to get their hands on the weapon, but they didn't dare to involve the craftsmen, which was going to kill them. ”
Hua Xin heard the meaning of the words, he didn't dare, not couldn't.
As long as enough conditions can be given, there is nothing to dare to, Hua Xin made a decision in his heart, waved his hand and said: "Go, invite them to the village as soon as possible." ”
The spy bowed to the two and turned to leave.
After the spy left, he said in frustration: "Master Hua, I always feel that things are going too smoothly and something is not appropriate. It is true that businessmen seek profits, but the sale of weapons is forbidden, which is not an easy task. ”
Hua Xin smiled and said, "Lord Frustration, you are worrying about nothing. It is the nature of businessmen to seek profits, as long as they can earn money, businessmen will pounce on them like moths. We give enough money, and the merchants use their own means to get the weapons used by the Shu army and buy off the officials, this is their wrist, as long as they can buy weapons. ”
Fu Zhi nodded slightly, but felt a little uneasy.
Wang Can's ability is more than this, but he can't think of any problems.
