Chapter 42: The Handle
At this moment, Yuan Yun watched Sun Ce limp into the lobby, and his waist was even a little unable to straighten, so he could guess that those arrows did hit the vital point, if Sun Ce was not very strong, it is estimated that he would have been dead a long time ago.
If Sun Ce hadn't hooked his back, he would have been two meters tall, and his burly figure could still see his heroic posture of riding a horse and carrying a gun back then, but now this hero looks a little decadent, although his eyes are still very bright, but the momentum of being proud of the world has long been gone.
After several people sat down in their seats, Sun Ce smiled heartily and said, "It's really an honor for Sun Hou to come today, but I don't know why Yuan Hou came here this time?" ”
Yuan Yunwen was stunned when he heard this, he didn't want Sun Ce to be so direct, he barely had any set of almost wording, and went straight to the topic, and even if he said so, it didn't make people feel embarrassed, and he admired the other party's straightforwardness.
Smiling slightly, Yuan Yuncai arched his hand and said: "I was going to come over to bother today, I originally planned to inquire about some things, but I had already learned everything from Ling Mei on the way here, so I only wanted to know some details about Sima Yi's blackmail of the Sun family at this moment." ”
Sun Ce smiled, and in an instant, he shook his head and said: "Sima Yi has not blackmailed the Sun family, I'm afraid Yuan Hou made a mistake, Shang Xiang is a woman after all, and she doesn't participate in many big and small affairs in the family, so it's normal to make mistakes." ”
Yuan Yun was a little surprised when he heard Sun Ce say this, he thought it was a very simple matter, but he didn't think that it would be difficult to do it when he came to Sun Ce, didn't Sun Ce admit that he was blackmailed in order to maintain Sun's face?
But it feels illogical to think about it like this, the head of such a big clan has always been very pragmatic and will not give up an opportunity for the sake of face, so Sun Ce doesn't say the specific details, he has other plans.
After thinking about this, Yuan Yun glanced at Sun Quan who was sitting opposite, only to see that his face was peaceful, and even the corners of his mouth had a smile.
When Sun Quan saw Yuan Yun looking at him, he immediately arched his hand and said, "Yuan Hou is a first-time visitor, but today he was broken by my little sister, I hope Yuan Hou doesn't mind too much." ”
Listening to Sun Quan's inexplicable words, Yuan Yun immediately understood the key, that is, he, Yuan Yun, had never expressed his attitude, that is, to unite with the Sun family to deal with Sima Yi, then he was naturally a guest, for a first-time visitor, how could Sun Ce explain everything?
After thinking about it, Yuan Yun smiled, and then hugged his fists and said: "Ben Hou and Sima Yi have always been at odds, this matter is well known to everyone in Luoyang, if you go to the street to inquire a little, you can know the truth or falsehood, the so-called enemy of the enemy is a friend, this sentence Ben Hou thinks is very appropriate, now since Sima Yi and we are not dealing with each other, then why don't we deal with him together?" ”
Sun Ce seemed to be very satisfied with Yuan Yun's answer, nodded and smiled: "What Yuan Hou said is extremely true, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, this sentence is very subtle, so Yuan Hou is a friend of the Sun family, since he is a friend, he can naturally say nothing." ”
After Sun Ce finished speaking, he immediately waved his hand, and soon a person who looked like a shopkeeper walked out, and then put down a few account books on the table in front of Yuan Yun.
Sun Ce saw that the account books had been placed in front of Yuan Yun, so he continued: "This is the money that Sima Yi has taken from our Sun family in the past two years, and each item has been recorded in detail, mainly from the sugar industry, so Yuan Hou can know it at a glance. ”
Yuan Yun used the chip in his brain to quickly read the account book, only to see that he was shocked, although the sugar industry is not as good as the salt industry, but it is also a huge money-making business, the most powerful thing is that the Sun family almost monopolizes everything, and the sugar sold from the south to the whole country must basically be in the entire industry of the Sun family in the south, and finally it will be shipped to sell everywhere, and no one knows better than Yuan Yun how much the value of the monopoly is.
And Sima Yi actually took away thirty percent from such a huge business, no wonder the funds in his hands have always been very abundant, and the Sun family's sugar business alone can almost meet all of Sima Yi's expenses.
"What kind of secret did Sima Yi have of the Sun family, so that the Sun family would be so willing to give him thirty percent of the profit?" Yuan Yun asked very abruptly, this kind of family privacy matter, it is estimated that no one can ask it so easily.
When Sun Ce heard the question, he didn't answer immediately, he looked at Yuan Yun carefully for a long time, and finally made a decision and replied: "Back then, the Sun family mastered the land of Yangzhou, in order to prepare for the military resources to fight with the imperial court, so my second brother stole and dug up the graves of many nobles, this matter is indeed very inauthentic, if it is made public, I am afraid that without waiting for the imperial court to ask for guilt, many nobles will be our enemies, this is the handle that Sima Yi mastered." ”
Yuan Yun was very satisfied with Sun Ce's downfall, since he said that the enemy's enemy was a friend, he had no intention of concealing it, thinking so, he did find the history of Sun Quan ordering people to steal and dig graves on the record of the chip, even earlier than Cao Ren, and Sun Quan was the real ancestor of the unlucky thief.
Tomb robbery is indeed taboo by many nobles, if you know that the Sun family has done this kind of thing, I believe that many people will point the finger at the Sun family, and now the Sun family is the identity of the general, if it is really impeached to go to the court, the ending will not be too good.
Yuan Yun thought for a moment, and then asked, "These things are all old things, how did Sima Yi master them?" ”
Sun Quan replied with some shame at this time: "I organized a special army to rob tombs before, and then our Sun family surrendered to the imperial court, and we planned to disband this army, but these people did not listen to the order, and finally took refuge in the name of Sima Yi, so that our Sun family can no longer hold them accountable." ”
When Yuan Yun heard this, a smile immediately appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he continued to ask: "So Sima Yi is still using this army to rob tombs?" ”
Sun Quan nodded and said: "Although this army is no longer in my hands, there are still many people in the army who are interested in our Sun family, so I know some insiders, and this army is still very active, which proves that they must be under the instruction of Sima Yi to continue to dig graves everywhere." ”
Yuan Yun nodded with satisfaction and said, "This is very good, then this army will no longer be the trouble of the Sun family, but should be Sima Yi's." ”
Hearing Yuan Yun say this, Sun Ce immediately understood, and also nodded and smiled: "It is indeed as Yuan Hou said, but our Sun family is not suitable to come forward in this matter, and we will all rely on Yuan Hou Zhang Luo in the future." ”
Yuan Yun heard Sun Ce say this, and laughed secretly in his heart, Sun Ce is planning to completely take out the Sun family, everything is led by him Yuan Yun, no matter what things turn out, it will not burn the Sun family in the end, Sun Ce is indeed very qualified as the head of the family.
"Big brother, after all, we committed this back then, why did we throw it all to others?" Sun Shangxiang, who hadn't spoken for a long time, finally came up with a sentence.
Sun Ce heard Sun Shangxiang's question, he couldn't help frowning slightly, he was really a headache for this girl's disobedience, now the Sun family is not like back then, he can be in Yangzhou for many years, Yu Yecheng lived under the supervision of Cao Cao for many years, and finally was relocated to Luoyang, which one can be decided by the Sun family, at this moment it is equal to the Sun family is the meat on the board, one will be eaten by someone if he is not careful, how can he participate in the struggle of such magnates, especially Yuan Yun and Sima Yi, the two biggest magnates.
"Miss Sun is too worried, there are many things that the Sun family really shouldn't be involved in now, for you to have more than one thing is better than one less thing, so that the Sun family can be peaceful, so this thing should be the most suitable thing to do." Yuan Yun saw that Sun Ce was embarrassed, and hurriedly rounded the scene, in fact, he also decided in his heart, if there is a Sun family caught in the middle, I don't know what else will happen, it is better not to.
Sun Shangxiang heard Yuan Yun say this, for the first time, there was a trace of guilt in his eyes, and then there was a little gratitude, and Yuan Yun was a little embarrassed, but Sun Quan, who was still sitting on the side, seemed to see something good, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously revealed an inexplicable smile.
Yuan Yun would definitely be very rude to look at Sun Shangxiang any longer, so he staggered the topic and arched his hand at Sun Quan: "The army that robbed the tomb back then, does Brother Zhongmou still have a record roster?" ”
Sun Quan seemed to be thinking about something important at the moment, and was immediately stunned by Yuan Yun's sudden question, but he reacted immediately, so he took a look in his cuff and sent a roster to Yuan Yun.
Yuan Yun took it with satisfaction, and didn't open it, but just arched his hand slightly, planning to leave and leave, because everything that should be done was done, and then he had to go to the other princes' houses to walk around, so as to see if there were any unexpected discoveries.
Sun Ce knew that the matter was important, so he didn't keep it, but just sent Sun Quan to send Yuan Yun out.
The two walked all the way towards the gate, Sun Quan suddenly stopped, and then glanced at Sun Shangxiang, who was following far behind, and then arched his hand to Yuan Yun and said: "My sister is too stubborn, she has offended Yuan Hou several times, and I hope Yuan Hou will not mind." ”
Yuan Yun shook his hand and said with a smile: "Sister Ling is just more lively, so naturally I won't blame anything." ”
Sun Quan nodded, and then continued: "Shang Xiang lived in the Yuan Mansion before, but he changed his stubborn temperament a lot, Yuan Hou must have some good way, so I plan to send Shang Xiang to continue to study in the Yuan Mansion, Su asked Cai Wenji is a talented woman, and having her teach Shang Xiang will definitely make our Sun family worry a lot, I don't know if Yuan Hou agrees?" ”
Yuan Yun was stunned, and he didn't know why Sun Quan brought the topic to this, but remembered that Sun Shangxiang was also familiar with Cai Wenji and other wives and concubines back then, so there was no need to refuse, so he readily agreed.
After leaving the Sun Mansion, Yuan Yun's next target was naturally the mansion of his old friend Zhang Lu. ()
