43, Jun Zi'an sits and enjoys peace (II)
"If Yan Jun speaks truthfully, then Gu will be honest!"
After Wei Gu heard Yan Xing's words, he smiled and clapped his hands, and one of the three Wei family principals immediately got up, handed a scroll of silk paintings that had been placed by his side in front of Yan Xing, and slowly unfolded it on the desk.
Yan Xing looked at the vertical and horizontal area of Qianmo in the picture scroll, raised his eyebrows, and knew in his heart that the area painted in this picture, he didn't know how many times he had seen it on the map hanging in his wall tent, as if it was engraved in his heart.
"Your family wants to follow the Fenshui River, from Linfen to Pingyang, thousands of hectares of fertile land on the banks of the river!"
When Wei Gu heard Yan Xing's words, he smiled faintly and didn't say anything, but the head of the Wei family, who was close to spread out the picture, smiled and said lightly:
"Yan Jun said with a smile, some of these fields were originally from the contemptible family, most of them were thin fields and inferior land, coupled with the raging white waves, the ownerless fields should be abandoned and abandoned, it is better to give them to the contemptible family, so that I can work diligently to supply the military supplies of the army!"
Looking at the smiling faces of Wei Gu and the head of the Wei family, Yan Xing's fingers gently pinched a few times on the acres of land in the silk painting, and smiled, but his lowered face slowly became cold.
The field that the Wei family fancies is the place where he planned to implement the tuntian!
Agriculture is the foundation of all industries in the world, and water is the lifeblood of agriculture, the Wei family not only has a vicious vision, but also has great courage, and even wants to use this opportunity to borrow grain, use Yan Xing's Xiliang army, and swallow the most fertile thousands of hectares of fertile land along the Fenshui River in one bite.
The Wei family also knew that after Yan Xing's Xiliang army moved to Hedong, it was not only to supply the already tight military rations, but also to resettle the displaced people in the north.
Although it is really painful to borrow half and give out 100,000 stone of grain at the usual price, but from the perspective of long-term interests, owning a large area of fertile land along the Fenshui River is still a matter of great profit, and it is precisely because of this that the Wei family dares to reach out for the land so blatantly, and they rely on the delicate situation in Hedong today!
Wei Gu looked at Yan Xing's fingers tapping lightly on the desk, knowing that he was thinking about gains and losses in his heart, he couldn't help but smile fearlessly, he knew that the captain in front of him was also an ambitious figure, for his position and power in Dong Ying, he would be so enterprising and strive to fight for thieves.
Although the war has been won now, in order to consolidate the foundation of the Xiliang Army and his own position, this Dangkou Lieutenant must find a way to make up for the lack of military logistics in the army, and he happens to hold the food he is seeking in his hands, which is like choking his throat, even if he is a fierce tiger, he has to obediently fall to the ground when he is controlled by others.
"Wei Jun's invitation, I'm afraid it will be difficult to fulfill it!"
What the!
Yan Xing's sudden explosion of words made Wei Gu's eyes widen instantly, and he opened his mouth in surprise, but he didn't say a word, and an inexplicable anger of being teased surged in his heart.
It's just that after all, because of the identity of his own family and Yan Xing, Wei Gu quickly put away the anger rising in his abdomen, and the head of the Wei family who unfolded the scroll asked angrily and angrily:
"What does Yan Jun mean by this, the contemptible family helps the military with 100,000 stone to replenish military supplies, such a favor, don't you want to come to a few acres of thin fields?"
Yan Xing ignored the questioning of the head of the Wei family, he had already seriously considered the gains and losses of this transaction just now, if he agreed to the request of the Wei family, it would undoubtedly be a drink to quench his thirst, the Wei family, a powerful family across counties and counties, was originally in the southeast of the river is a tree with deep roots, if this time he also let him borrow grain to intervene in the north of the east of the river, then it will inevitably form a tail in the future.
If Yan Xing just came to clear the white waves in Hedong, then he might pinch his nose and trade with the Wei family for the short-term interests in front of him, but Yan Xing's department went to Hedong and took a fancy to the geographical advantages of Hedong County's mountains and rivers and the products of salt, iron, grain, and silk, how could he let the Wei family take advantage of the opportunity to borrow grain and easily pick the peaches obtained by Yan Xing's troops in successive bloody battles.
In other words, the Bai Bo Army is a tiger that gathers in the mountains and forests, and the powerful local surnames of the Wei family and the Fan family are ambitious jackals, and Yan Xing wants to take advantage of the chaos in the world and use force to control the territory of Hedong County as the basis for his existence, and the Wei family and the Fan family are strong, either bright or dark, and they have become a rock that hinders Yan Xing's actions in the future.
If the Wei family showed a trace of harmony and goodwill, instead of showing a high-minded appearance in their bones, Yan Xing might still hesitate to continue to make peace with the Wei family, but for now, the Wei family's ambitions are obviously beyond the original imagination of Yan Xing and others, a strong and warlike foreign army, and a powerful local surname Haoqiang, and at the same time eyeing the same piece of meat, it is impossible for things to compromise in harmony.
Liu Qiao looked at the Qianmo fields in the silk scroll, and also knew the reason why Yan Xing changed his face and refused, he raised his eyes and looked directly at the questioning of the head of the Wei family, and his mouth was no longer polite, and he retorted and said sarcastically:
As the saying goes, the rich have a land of hope, and the poor have no place to stand. The surname of Hedong is unscrupulous, embezzling public land, bullying private people, your surname is also in the column, Hedong white waves are raging, resurgence, the root cause is that the homeless people have nothing to live in, have to inhabit the thief, now your surname is a mouth is to Fenshui Coastal Most of the fertile land, snatched the acres of land that countless people in Hedong rely on to cultivate, this mouth is inevitably too big! β
Wei Gu, who was sitting at the top, faced cross-examination, snorted coldly, and finally said in person:
"Since Yan Jun came to Hedong, many people still can't understand what he has done, but looking at what he said and did today, I am afraid that his ambition is not small, although his mouth is big, but Yan Jun's ambition is not small!"
Speaking of this, Wei Gu flicked his sleeves and said with a sneer on his face:
"A hundred-legged insect will not stiffen until death, if someone thinks that they can resist the chaos with their own strength, then we might as well wait and see, see who is shrouded in the battlefield, and the horse will not return!"
Speaking of which, the meaning of the Wei family is obviously that if you are unwilling to obey my wishes on the field, then I will naturally not sell a piece of land to the north, just sit on the wall and watch, and watch the Xiliang army under Yan Xing's department and the Baibo army whose strength has been damaged fight to the death, and then slowly try to forge ahead on the matter of the field.
Zhou Liang also sniffed out the threat in Wei Gu's words, and after he looked at Yan Xing, he opened his mouth to respond:
"The Wei family prides itself on being a high-ranking family, but unexpectedly under the fame, in fact, it is difficult to deputy, Jun and others specialize in small profits, regardless of the righteousness, don't you hear the nest, how can there be an egg, the north border of the south of the river depends on each other, the lips die and the teeth are cold, and now abandon the situation in the north regardless of it, I am only afraid that the worries of Wei Jun and you are difficult to eliminate!"
Zhou Liang faced the threat of the Wei family, and he also fought-for-tat, bluntly saying that once the battle situation that had just been reversed in the north was reversed again, then the white wave thieves who swept in again would not only pose a huge threat to the Xiliang army of Yan Xing's department in the north, but also threaten the Hedong city in the south, and the Wei family would naturally not be spared at that time.
After Wei Gu listened to Zhou Liang's words, he laughed, but he didn't speak.
And the head of the Wei family, who unfolded the scroll, no longer concealed the arrogance in his heart, he grabbed the scroll back, puffed up his chest, and laughed loudly:
"It's a good one, then I also want to ask you, is the wall of this Anyi high?"
Zhou Liang snorted, knowing that he was knowingly asking, and did not reply to him, Anyi, as the seat of Hedong County, is naturally the strongest city in Hedong County, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a high wall and a deep ravine.
The head of the Wei family also seemed to expect that Zhou Liang would not answer, and he asked proudly one after another:
"Do you think that this Anyi is densely populated?"
"Is there plenty of food in the city?"
"Are the swords and spears produced by the Anyi Iron Official sharp?"
After asking these questions in one breath, the head of the Wei family curled the corners of his mouth and proudly concluded:
"Anyi has high walls and deep ravines, elite soldiers, countless money and food, and strong armor and soldiers, even if the white wave thieves swept south, we moved into the city, according to the city, how can this white wave thieves endure us, but the kings, heheββ"
Seeing the arrogance of the head of the Wei family, Zhou Liang also glared back without showing weakness, and was about to refute his lips, but saw Yan Xing, who had not spoken, suddenly raised his palm and signaled Zhou Liang and the others to stop talking, and Zhou Liang and Liu Qiao immediately stopped what they said.
Yan Xing could hear the arrogance and fearlessness of the Wei family from the words of the head of the Wei family, and although Wei Gu, who was sitting at the top, was proud of his identity and did not refute it, but from his eyes, Yan Xing could still feel the arrogance of Wei Gu, the head of the Wei family, and the Wei family was invincible, so in their eyes, the party seeking cooperation was begging for them.
"Since the words have come to this, it is useless to say more, my generation of warriors, to die on the battlefield and the horse leather shroud as a fortunate thing, since the bloody battle, and the king, there are high walls, money and food, there are Ding Zhuang, there are armor soldiers, you can sit high, enjoy peace!"
"Farewell!"
Yan Xing raised his hand, regarded as a salute, and took Zhou Liang and Liu Qiao to get up and leave.
"This Liangzhou is too arrogant!"
Looking at the figure of Yan Xing and the others leaving, the head of the Wei family couldn't help but reprimand angrily, in his opinion, his generation has a request from others, and dares to refuse his own request, he really doesn't know what to do, and he is arrogant and rude.
The other two Wei family directors next to them looked at each other, the situation just now changed too quickly, they only felt that although the two sides were still bargaining, the atmosphere was quite calm, but how could it be that because of the thousands of acres of fertile land, the atmosphere suddenly changed, and the things involved behind it seemed to be far from being as simple as the matter of acres of land!
"Zhong Jian, although this Liangzhou is arrogant, but now the Western Liang Army is still powerful in Hedong, so offending them like this will inevitably be inevitable-"
An elderly Wei family head relied on his age and seniority to question Wei Gu, who had just watched Yan Xing and the others leave angrily, but Wei Gu only raised his eyelids when he heard this, and the elderly Wei family head was speechless.
"Uncle Clan doesn't need to worry too much, the nephew still knows the proportion, if Niu Zhonglang will come, the nephew should be invited by him, but this Yan Yanming, the wolf Gu Eagle Vision, the mind is unpredictable, if he obeys his wishes, I am afraid that it will drive the tiger and devour the wolf, and leave the disaster for himself, the nephew has his own plans for this matter, and the uncle of the clan should not say more!"
When Wei Gu said this, as if he had thought of something again, he lowered his head slightly, looking at the colorful trim on the brocade robe, his eyes were uncertain, and the killing intent flashed.
Outside the Wei Family Manor
"Captain, now that the Wei family has such an attitude, how should we progress in our plan to raise food?"
Liu Qiao rode half a head behind Yan Xing and asked cautiously.
Yan Xing grabbed the reins with one hand and put up the pergola with the other, looking at the road conditions and scenery on the official road, the big surnames in Anyi City are headed by the Wei and Fan families, and now that the attitudes of these two families have been discovered, then there is naturally no need to stay in this Anyi City.
He urged the horses and pointed to the northwest.
"Let's go, go to Wenxi!"
