Chapter 69: The Wisdom of Blackmail (3)

Xu Xian saw that there was no movement outside, so he was furious on the spot, ran to the door to inquire, pulled his neck and scolded, "Are they all fucking dead people?!" Mount, mount all the horses, and bring them all to me! ”

As soon as these words came out, the clear sound of a large number of horses neighing outside the hall suddenly sounded, and the hearts of some officials in the hall were already in their throats. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Xu Xian snorted, threw off the cloak behind him and returned to the main seat.

"Xu Baihu, why bother? Is it too much trouble to arrest them? ”

"Chang Dudu, I am doing things under orders, besides, 10 million taels of silver, if I don't raid the house, where can I get it?"

When Chang An heard this, he said, "If you can make it, if you can make it, we will help Xu Baihu, Xu Baihu, think about it, if we can make it, won't we have to raid the house?" ”

Xu Xian glanced at Chang An and licked his lips, "Don't hide it from the governor, as long as the ten million taels are put together, this Yan Song's fellow party doesn't have to be traced anymore." ”

"Really?"

"Seriously!"

Chang An nodded, and then said to the officials at the table, "Have you heard, as long as the money is gathered, the matter of Yan Song's comrades will be over." ”

"But 10 million taels of silver, even if you raid our house, you can't make it up......"

Someone at the banquet whispered, but the truth was stated.

Xu Xian cleared his throat when he heard this, "Actually, I have a way to get together this ten million taels of silver, but I still need everyone's cooperation." ”

"Everyone in the world knows that this businessman is very rich, and there are a lot of collusions between them and Yan Song's father and son, so I want them to pay this ten million taels."

As soon as everyone heard this, their eyes lit up, this idea is very good, you don't have to pay for it yourself, as for the life and death of those merchants, who cares?

Suddenly, the audience was full of words of approval, and Zhuo Tianhao, who was observing through the secret door, turned pale.

Xu Xian stretched out his hand to press the noise of the crowd, "But in order to complete the goal of 10 million taels without arousing the anger of the merchants, I need everyone to act in a play." ”

Chang An immediately said, "Xu Baihu, please say, we will do it." ”

Xu Xian nodded, "Then please donate all your money." ”

As soon as these words came out, there was silence again in the banquet, Xu Xian patted his head when he saw this, "It's that I didn't explain it, everyone take out the money and put it here for me first, and after the matter is completed, I will return half of it to everyone." ”

After speaking, everyone didn't understand, Xu Xian simply made it clear, "You think, businessmen are not stupid, and it's not just the businessmen who collude with Yan Song's father and son, I'll tell them that the officials have also handed it over, and if they take out the vouchers and take a look, then they will obediently pay the money." ”

"Collect their money, and I will return half of your money."

Halfway? Chang An looked at Xu Xian, and Xu Xian nodded at him knowingly, indicating that all of his would be returned.

Everyone discussed Xu Xian's words for a while, although they were still reluctant to pay money, but when they thought that the merchants would make a big difference, and they could get half of it back, they accepted it.

So under the leadership of Chang An, at a dinner today, Xu Xian got more than 500,000 taels of silver.

――――――

After the banquet, Xu Xian and Wang He returned to the room where Zhuo Tianhao was.

Wang He looked at the pile of silver tickets, IOUs, or tokens in front of him, and his eyes widened, "More than 500,000 taels, Xu Xian, can we not return them to them?" ”

Xu Xian shook his head, "No, you must have credit as a person, especially in terms of money." Xu Xian pulled a bunch of tokens, but found a golden hairpin with exquisite workmanship, picked it up with bright eyes, looked at it for a while, turned around and sent it to Bai Suzhen, and put it on her head with his own hands.

When Wang He saw this, he shouted at the time, "Didn't you say that these things have to be returned to others?" ”

"It's just a golden hairpin, Lao Tzu asks him for it, can he still give it?!"

"Xu Xian, you are an unreasonable thing."

Xu Xian shook his head and said What can you do with me, after putting it on Bai Suzhen, Xu Xian nodded with a smile, expressing his satisfaction.

The buffalo strode through the door, "The prisoners have been sent back, and the guards have doubled. ”

"Well, you have to prevent those people and dogs from jumping off the wall."

"Xu Xian, Gonggong Liu clearly said that it was three million taels, why did you say that it was ten million taels?" The buffalo held back this question for a night.

Wang He nodded, "Also, why did you return all the money to Chang An, but only half of those officials?" ”

Xu Xian looked at the room and everyone didn't understand, so he sat down and explained slowly, "This is the inspiration that I saw the brothers lining up to eat in the morning. ”

"I'll tell you a joke, saying that one day, there was a robber who hijacked a convoy full of people, and told them that as long as you pay obediently, I will not kill you, and the first one only needs to pay one penny, and the second one needs to pay two coins, and so on."

"Guess what?"

Wang He shook his head and smiled when he heard this, and he understood Xu Xian's reason for doing this, "Those people were busy queuing up to pay the money, but they forgot to resist. ”

Xu Xian slapped his face, pointed at Wang He and said, "Look, it is worthy of a thousand households, it is smart!" ”

Wang He arched his hand at Xu Xian, "Xu Xian, I really obey you!" ”

The buffalo grew its mouth, "How could this be." ”

"You see, it's like you have to buy something, but the boss has raised the price, and tells you that the later the person comes, the higher the price, your first thought is definitely to hurry up and buy it, rather than asking the boss why the price has increased."

Xu Xian spread his hands, "As for this 10 million taels, I just in case, you think, everyone works hard for 10 million taels, there must be a mustard in their hearts, they must think about it, the 10 million taels is about the same, it must be enough for three million taels, if I directly say three million taels, it will definitely not be enough." ”

"Oh, my mother......" The buffalo took two steps forward, lowered his body and picked up Xu Xian's head, and looked at it carefully, "What do you have in your brain, why is your stomach full of bad water?!" ”

Xu Xian broke away from the buffalo's hand, his face sank, and he was silent for a moment and said, "Who doesn't want to live ......innocently" After saying this, Xu Xian suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong, so he pretended to look around relaxed, only to find that there was a Zhuo Tianhao in the corner.

Pointing at him, he said to Wang He, "Did he hear our conversation just now?" ”

Wang He nodded.

"Someone!" Xu Xian shouted, and Fang Wei came in with the two Jinyi Wei brothers, "Fang Wei, give you a task, you and the two brothers behind you will not leave Zhuo Tianhao until I order you to stop following." ”
