Chapter 46: Bait
Ju Yi looked at the chessboard with a heavy face, he dragged his chin with one hand in plain clothes, but the other hand was always pressed on the chess piece in front of him, and he did not fall for a long time. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The cup of tea on the desk had long since run out of heat, and it could be seen that his master had never taken a bite to eat, so that it was still brand new.
In contrast, Wei Yu, who was sitting opposite, seemed a little leisurely, although a pair of eyes were always staring at the chessboard, but his hands were constantly sending tea to his mouth, for Wei Yu, drinking a pot of tea in winter was one of his few hobbies.
"Qingyue, why bother with the way that rook moves, in fact, you can be activated by adapting your game of chess."
Hearing Wei Yu's words, Ju Yi's furrowed eyebrows seemed to be relaxed a little, and his falcon-like eyes began to wander on the chessboard, as if he wanted to find the chess piece that Wei Yu said brought back to life.
Suddenly, a smile crossed the corner of his mouth, and the two index fingers of his right hand caught the horse and moved forward two steps slightly, as if to pull off the horn of a counterattack.
"Knock Knock"
The knock on the door shocked Ju Yi's spirit, and the long sword placed beside him was suddenly copied by him, and he quickly flashed to the door, and asked in a small voice.
"Who's here?"
I heard a female voice outside the door: "It was the guy from the pharmacy who brought medicine to Wei Shaojun." ”
Ju Yi and Wei Yu glanced at each other, and seeing Wei Yu nodded, Ju Yi came to open the door bolt, and a slightly obese woman hurriedly walked in.
"Aunt Hong, Qingyue is not an outsider, what can I say directly."
Wei Yu didn't look seriously ill, and looked at the eyes of the former Red Pavilion old bustard and the current Chen family with a smile.
Aunt Hong glanced up at Wei Yu, her eyes were full of surprise, she followed Chen Jia behind her that day and saw how seriously Wei Yu's injury was, and Wei Yu was sitting here like nothing after a few days?
But as she was an intelligence officer of the Chen family for many years, her surprised face immediately returned to normal, and she saluted and spoke.
"There is news over there, saying that the family of the world has arrived in Dong Taishou's mansion, and Master Wei and Cai Gong are already in the list, and the leader said that please rest assured that Wei Shaojun will go according to plan."
After Aunt Hong finished speaking, she stood in place, and Ju Yishen, who had already closed the door, appeared behind her unconsciously, and the long sword that was slightly drawn reflected a ray of sunlight, which suddenly made Aunt Hong shudder.
"It's hard Aunt Hong, Qingyue doesn't have to be tense, it's all your own people, there's no need to be so nervous."
Wei Yu put the tea in his hand on the desk and said: "Yu is physically inconvenient and can't attend the meeting, thanks to Chen everyone taking care of Aunt Hong's eyeliner to report the situation back and forth, after this conference, the Wei family will be grateful to Aunt Hong." ”
Aunt Hong didn't dare when she heard it, "Wei Shaojun is serious, the leader's orders still need to be obeyed, I think most of the people from the Wei Mansion go to the conference today, do you need the old slave to send some people..."
"Aunt Lao Hong is bothered, and there are Juyi brothers guarding by my side, and it is expected that no one in this land east of the river can enter the next ten feet."
Aunt Hong thought about the murderous aura on Ju Yi's body just now, and then nodded: "Since this is the case, the old slave will retire, and with new information, the old slave will come to report, and the next time the code is that the hotel will send wine to Ju Zhuangshi." ”
Wei Yu got up and said, "Remember, it's just that after Aunt Hong goes out, don't worry about recovering in the next place..."
Before Wei Yu finished speaking, Aunt Hong interrupted Wei Yu's words, "The old slave has been a slave of the Chen family for many years, what should be said and what should not be said that the old slave is naturally provincial, please rest assured that Wei Shaojun." ”
…
Although Dong Zhuo's Taishou Mansion is gorgeous, if he pretends to come to the Hedong family this time, the Confucian general is still a little crowded, so that some small families have no place and can only stand behind the representatives of the great family they are attached to.
Dong Zhuo handed over this matter to Li Ru this time because of his physical illness, as for the Taishou Mansion and the Wei family, they had already ordered the supply of refined salt, so what Li Ru had to do at this conference was just to provide a place for the world's families and preside over the overall situation.
Yang Yuan, Chen Cao and other big families sat in the front row, Cai Yong and Lu Zhi took their apprentices and Zheng Xuan and several Confucians to sit together, the Zhen family seemed to form a temporary alliance with the four Jiangdong families, and the local anti-Wei forces in Hedong led by the Wang family sat in the rear.
The representative of the Chen family was Chen Qun, he didn't say anything at this time, and Chen Jia was standing among the many house slaves behind him in male and female clothes, and suddenly a dark shadow whispered something in Chen Jia's ear, and then Chen Jia nodded expressionlessly.
"Since you are here for this refined salt, you are too sick to keep your health, and Confucianism has come to preside over this conference on behalf of the long history."
As soon as Li Ru finished speaking, he saw a Confucian scholar who looked like a literati walking out of the crowd.
"Li Changshi is polite, since Li Changshi has finished speaking, I will talk about the problem of Hedong Wei's monopoly on refined salt on behalf of our Jiangdong."
It was the head of the Zhang family in Jiangdong who spoke, and there was no room for these words, and he told Li Ru vaguely, you are just a Taishou Mansion Governor Shi is not qualified to speak here at all. The second is to directly buckle the big hat of refined salt to Wei's, wanting to make a conclusion and not give the Wei family a chance to turn the tables.
The head of the Zhang family made a look, and saw a middle-aged literati come out, this person was a famous Confucian student of the Jiangdong generation, and what the Zhang family wanted was to crucify the Wei family through the mouth of the great Confucian.
I only heard this Jiangdong Confucian said: "The development of refined salt is related to the livelihood of the people of the Central Plains, if such a key technique for the benefit of the people is tightly locked in Hedong, then it is a great misfortune in the world, and all of you in Hedong have naturally become sinners in the Central Plains through the ages." We are the disciples of the saints, and we also hope that the Hedong Wei family will raise their noble hands and return the art of benefiting the people to the land of the Central Plains. ”
As soon as Jiangdong Confucian opened his mouth, everyone echoed, although Zheng Xuan and others on the side were disgusted that they were bought by the family, but there was no way to refute it.
"Sir's right."
Wang Ya patted his sleeve and stood up, "Although my Pingyang Wang family has been inherited by the ancestors for a hundred years, it is no longer glorious to its ancestors. However, the same Hedong family is responsible for educating the people, and a few days ago they have obtained the right to sell refined salt from Wei's family, and there is an income of 10,000 yuan in just a few days, and the Wang family is terrified. It's just..."
Wang Ya stretched the word "just" for a long time, and then stopped talking, and the families present were filled with the interests of a few days and thousands of dollars when Wang Ya said this, and they all wanted to win the right to sell refined salt on the spot.
As soon as the three families of Hedong Wei Cheng and Yang heard Wang Ya's words, their faces became solemn, the refined salt was the first initiative of the Wei family, and the Wei family was also a famous family, so the Acropolis naturally also sat in the forefront.
At this time, he was not as worried as others, and after Wang Ya finished speaking, he nodded to Xiaoru, who represented his son. The little girl was also instructed by Wei Yu,
Comprehending, she immediately ordered Xu Huang to go down with a few sturdy domestic servants, as if she was going to prepare something...
And the chief Yang Tuan has not spoken much, although he also admires Wei Yu very much, and he is also the head of the Yang family in Fenyin, but for refined salt, he must stand in the position of a big family to speak.
He slowly stood up, and after saluting the families present, he said: "The interests of refined salt have just passed through the Wang family, and everyone should have a preliminary judgment, according to your meaning, the world family should share this skill for the benefit of the people." ”
Yang Tuan's gaze gradually fell on Wang Ya, and he said, "Tuan Bucai wants to ask you what the Wang family meant by what he didn't finish saying just now. ”
…
"It's just..."Wei Yu smiled, raised his hand to eat Ju Yi's "horse" that was turning over the river and sea on his own chessboard, and then spoke to Ju Yi with a straight face.
"It's just that this Wang family has always hated me, I'm afraid that even if they hand over all the sales rights of refined salt this time, they won't be satisfied, and with Wang Ya's character, he will definitely follow the words of the world's family and let us spit out the method of refining refined salt."
When Ju Yi heard this, he lost interest in the fight on the chessboard, and asked, "Is the eldest brother just sitting back like this?" The Wang family is in trouble everywhere, and today I have inquired about it, cutting off people's financial routes, such as killing parents, and the Wang family forced the eldest brother to confide in the purification method, so in the future, the refined salt business..."
These days, because Wei Yu admires Ju Yi and Xu Huang's heroism and decisiveness, the three of them are like-minded and become brothers of the opposite sex.
"Does Qingyue think the benefits of this refined salt are great?"
Ju Yi was a little overwhelmed in the face of Wei Yu's sudden question, as long as anyone with a little bit of brains would know the benefits of fine salt.
"But for me, refined salt is just a bait I throw out."
Wei Yu rubbed his temples, maybe it was because of the excessive sleep in the past few days that made his mind a little dizzy.
"Qingyue must have heard of the Wang family's persecution of me before, originally I was making refined salt to target the Wang family, and only by using heavy bait can I lure the Wang family's big fish to the bait.
It's just that what my brother didn't expect was that it attracted the peeps of the world's families, and when I thought about it, I suddenly realized after listening to my father's glance, why didn't my brother throw out the refined salt that he wanted to make public with the help of the hands of the world's families? ”
Wei Yu's eyes returned to the chessboard, "In this way, we can not only satisfy the ambitions of the world's families, but also better attract the Wang family to take the bait." ”
It seemed to be a little cold, Wei Yu reached out and added some charcoal fire and put it into the stove, "This weather is getting colder and colder, Qingyue may not know that this winter will be unexpectedly cold." ”
Ju Yi was a little confused by Wei Yu's words, but after listening to Wei Yu and continuing to play chess, he could only play this game with his eldest brother.
There was another knock on the door.
This time, Ju Yi was not as panicked as last time, and only heard the middle-aged woman's voice coming into his ears.
"The guy from the hotel, according to the instructions of the Wei Mansion, brought wine to Uncle Ju..."
