Listening to Qian Man's words, everyone was shocked. Guo Bin and Xi Zhicai glanced at each other, did not speak, and casually blocked Guan and Zhang, who were about to shoot the case, with their eyes. Guo Dawu had infinite admiration and trust for Guo Bin, and seeing that Guo Bin did not react, they also buried their heads in eating and drinking, as if they had never heard it.

After saying this, Qian Man seemed to realize his gaffe, closed his mouth, looked around, and saw that except for Fu Luohan's table, everyone did not react, so he was relieved.

In their previous conversation, they used all Xianbei dialect, and seeing that Guo Bin and his party were all dressed as Han Chinese, they didn't say anything, but they didn't understand Xianbei dialect. Who knows, Zhang Shiping has already arranged a tour guide for Guo Bin and led Guo Bin and his party around the city. Although the tour guide is a Han Chinese, he has been in the Saiwai for a long time to trade with Zhang Shiping, so Xianbei said it very well. While they were talking, he kept translating for Guo Bin and the others. Because he was far away and his voice was extremely low, although this noble and humble nobleman could speak fluent Chinese, he didn't even notice it.

I only heard Fu Luo Han say angrily: "Don't be arrogant, don't think that Helian can act arbitrarily if you make a big order, the Han people's trade city has brought many benefits to my Xianbei tribes, the world knows." If you dare to go against the grain, I'm afraid that even Da Dan Yu will let you go! ”

Qian Man was about to say something, but he opened his mouth and was stunned.

At this time, he saw the hook-nosed young man who was eating at the same table as Fu Luo Han get up, raised his glass to Qian Man Yaoyao, and said with a smile: "Don't be angry, Prince Qian Man, Fu Luo Han is straightforward and fast-talking, you know." It's just that attacking this Han city is indeed a matter of great importance, and if the prince wants to raise troops to attack because of a small contradiction, I am afraid that even Da Dan Yu will not be able to allow it. ”

Qian Man seemed unmoved, only picked up the wine and drank the wine in the glass.

The hook-nosed young man continued: "Besides, the Han people's city is extremely tall and has a moat, if it is not a surprise attack, where can it be easily captured? It's better for the prince not to be impulsive. ”

When Xi Zhicai heard this, he suddenly raised his head and glanced at this person, looked at Guo Bin, and said in a low voice: "This person is not simple. ”

Guo Bin nodded secretly and did not speak.

But hearing Qian Man stand up suddenly, he said angrily: "This prince said that half a month is half a month, and if this city is not something belonging to my Xianbei royal court in half a month, this prince will be planted!" Hmph, Kebineng, you'd better not hang out with Furohan all day. Your tribe is small, so be careful not to let him take over! ”

But when he saw the hook-nosed young man, he laughed and said, "The prince said that he laughed, Fu Luohan is the most open-minded, where is the kind of person who seeks to steal people's property behind his back?" ”

Qian Man snorted coldly and said, "Fu Luohan is just right, his third brother is not a good master. ”

Fu Luo Han took the case and said, "Qianman! You don't have to rely on the support of Helian to talk nonsense! Otherwise, otherwise don't blame me for being rude! As he spoke, he put his right hand on the hilt of the sword, but his face was already flushed.

Qian Man glanced at him and said, "Hmph, is this prince still afraid of you?" ”

Seeing that the two sides were tense and looked like they were about to fight, Ke Bineng hurriedly stood up and said: "The two of you are angry, after all, this is the territory of the Han people. If there is a disturbance and the soldiers patrolling the city are provoked, it will not be fun. ”

When the two of them heard this, they each snorted coldly and sat down.

Seeing this, Guo Bin nodded secretly in his heart: "It seems that Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang have indeed established a good order in the city during this period of time. Just look at the descendants of these Xianbei nobles, who dare not draw their swords in the city, it can be seen. Thinking of this, they glanced at Xi Zhicai, and both of them saw the look of approval in each other's eyes.

Since then, everyone in the restaurant has been drinking and feasting separately, and Qian Man is still sneering at Fu Luohan during the banquet, but the one with a hooked nose called Kebineng tried his best to persuade the two sides to do not act on the spot. After the wine and food were full, everyone checked out and went downstairs, Guo Bin gave Ambassador Guo a look, and Guo Da tiptoed to the whereabouts of Qian Man and others.

When he returned to the Yamen, Guo Bin was busy finding Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang. told the two of them what they had seen and heard in the Drunken Immortal Building, and when they heard Qian Man's words, their faces changed dramatically at the same time.

Zhang Shiping said: "How is this good? Although this Qian Man is greedy for money and lustful, and likes to speak loudly, he is the sister-in-law of Xianbei Dashan Yu Helian after all. If it is really as he said, Helian wants to send troops to attack, then how can it be good? ”

Su Shuang said to Guo Bin: "Lord, although Helian's prestige is far from that of his father Tanshi Huai, after all, he is the son of Tanshi Huai, and he took the seat of Tan Shi Huai's big single Yu, so all the original subordinates of Tan Shi Huai were taken over by him. Only the herdsmen and warriors in his tribe can mobilize 30,000 people, but all the current soldiers in the three cities outside my fortress are only 5,000 people, plus the 700 personal guards brought by the lord himself, the total number is only 6,000. If it is used to maintain law and order in the city, it is naturally handy, and it is barely enough to maintain security and stability within a radius of fifty miles. It's just that... ”

The matter is too big, Zhang Shiping can't care about so many taboos, and said: "If this army of only 6,000 soldiers is used to fight against the army of more than 30,000 people, I am afraid that the disparity in strength between the two sides is too great, and our army is afraid that it will not be able to hold it!" ”

Su Shuang hurriedly said: "That's right! Besides, we have three cities, and these 6,000 people are scattered a little bit in each place, and the number of soldiers in each place is only 2,000. As he spoke, his face turned cold, and he said, "In my opinion, I still captured Qianman, and I can be a hostage when the time comes!" ”

Guo Bin sat on the top and looked at Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang with a calm face discussing countermeasures. These two people were both businessmen, and they happened to be valued by themselves, so the carp jumped into the dragon gate and became the actual rulers of the three cities outside the Saiwai, and since then they have been in charge of the life and death of hundreds of thousands of people in the three cities outside the Saiwai.

Although it is not in the Central Plains, the three cities outside the Central Plains occupy an important position as the hub between the Central Plains and the outside of the Central Plains, and Guo Bin has brought people here again and again to expand his business again and again, and today, its importance is even much greater than that of many counties in the Central Plains. As Guo Bin's first move in the layout of the grassland, its geographical location and its position as an important strategic node are heavier than many Central Plains cities, and they are more and more inmissible.

Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang greatly cherish this hard-won opportunity, so they are loyal and dedicated, not only to repay Guo Bin's kindness, but also to keep the power in their hands. And the increasing power in his hands made the two more and more happy about the decision to serve Guo Bin in the first place. Once people have tasted the pleasure of power, they will strive to achieve a higher status. Although this pleasure is not unbridled, it makes people willing to work for it.

Since the establishment of the Han Dynasty, starting with Gaozu Liu Bang, successive kings have tried their best to suppress the status of merchants. Therefore, even the merchants were rich, but their political status was still not recognized by the society, not only could their children and grandchildren not be officials, but they could not even wear clothes made of silk. Being able to get this kind of high position today is something that Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang didn't even dare to think about when they first joined Guo Bin.

However, after all, they are only businessmen, and they may have more means and experience, and in many cases, whether they are bold or decisive, they are much inferior to the commanders of a county.

Xi Zhicai only said lightly: "This Qianman can't be caught." ”

Zhang Shiping hurriedly said: "Why is this? ”

Guo Jia explained: "Although Qian Man accidentally leaked his mouth, He Lian didn't know it after all. If he really leads a large army to attack within half a month, we can still take this opportunity by surprise and calculate them. If Qian Man is arrested, it is clear that he and Lian already know his plan. Moreover, if we capture the prince of Xianbei Dashan Yu when Helian's evil deeds are not good, it will be reasonable for Helian to come and attack, and we will lose our legitimacy in public opinion. The so-called name is not right, the word is not good, and if the word is not good, the thing will not be done, and then Helian will have an excuse to gather all the Xianbei departments and come together to exterminate the three cities outside my Saiwai. ”

Guo Jia's words were very clear, and Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang nodded again and again. After staying for a while, the two of them were shocked, looking at Guo Jia's still immature face, admiring in their hearts, and secretly thinking: "It is worthy of being the younger brother of the lord's father-in-law, at a young age, he is meticulous and thoughtful, far beyond my generation!" ”

In fact, Guo Jia didn't look down on Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang in his heart, not only because of his businessman background, but also because the two of them did not work hard, so they suddenly got a high position. With the status of these two people, how can they suppress those former Yellow Turban Army prisoners who have experienced the baptism of war? Or now that he has come to the three cities outside the Saiwai, he has followed Guo Bin around, and he has become more and more identified with the management ability of the two, and deeply felt their loyalty to Guo Bin, so he put aside his prejudices and explained the two in detail at this time.

At that moment, Su Shuang looked at Guo Jia with a sincere but regretful face, and said, "Could it be that we just watch this Qianman swagger away?" ”

Guo Jia glanced at Guo Bin, and said slowly: "Now it seems that this is indeed the case. ”

Guo Bin saw that everyone was unhappy, and said: "I let Qianman go, like a duck's ear, and when he is captured, he will be the foundation of the three cities outside the fortress and protect the three cities." ”

When everyone heard this, they were all excited. In the land outside the Saiwai, it is indeed extremely inspiring to dare to say that the words of capturing Xianbei Dadan Yu Helian are inspiring. However, having said that, with such a large gap in military strength between the two sides, in the face of the elite Xianbei Iron Cavalry with nearly five times the number of troops on their own, the survival of the three cities outside the Saiwai has always overwhelmed everyone.

At that moment, Zhang Shiping said: "Lord, since Qian Man can say the crazy words of taking the three cities outside the Saiwai within half a month, he must have something to rely on." In my opinion, the Xianbei people who led the army to rob the road halfway were the subordinates of Helian! His insatiable greed was originally spread all over the secrets of the grassland, and now that he covets the wealth and gold-absorbing ability of my three cities, it is reasonable to do such a thing that makes all the tribes of the grassland spurned. ”

Guo Bin said: "This is reasonable. Zhang Shiping, quickly sent cavalry scouts, sprinkled all over the three cities outside the Saiwai within fifty miles, once found that the wind and grass were blowing, immediately reported, there must be no mistake! ”

Zhang Shiping hurriedly clenched his fists and said: "Get the order!" ”

Guo Bin nodded and said, "Then, let's talk about how to capture and kill Helian." ”
