Chapter 37: Bright Knives - Each Doesn't Give In

"Good!"

Xu Liang drank it first and clapped his hands. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Then Yang Zongqi and Zhang Zongqi also drank all the wine in the cup very neatly, only Feng Kexing, after drinking a glass, his face had become pale and sallow, and he looked like he was terminally ill.

"Everyone, faux pas!"

Feng Kexing hugged his fists in front of everyone, suddenly turned around and rushed out of the hall, took a breath to come outside the house, and then spit out all the wine that had just entered his stomach with a "wow".

"Whoa......" filth spilled all over the place!

......After Feng Kexing washed up and sat down, Xu Liang clapped his hands, and the banquet began to be officially served, those meals on the table were not counted, and someone came in from outside the door, and specially used a small pallet to serve a hearty game feast in front of each guest.

The tables in the hall are facing north and south, Liu Yuanshan, who is sitting in the first seat, is sitting in the north and facing south, and the people sitting in the other seats are quite far away, and the group of people below is almost sitting together, and there are no people around him in his position, which is quite abrupt.

"This is the game that the brothers hunted in the mountains in their spare time, and a few distinguished guests will taste it!" Xu Liang touched his thick beard and pointed to the food with a rude expression.

"Thank you!"

Liu Yuanshan gave up his hand, and then picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

There is no chili pepper, and the taste is a little out of his taste even if it is fresh, but what can he ask Xu Liang to ask for now? Liu Yuanshan ate tastelessly, and he had to eat with a relish expression, which was really difficult to pretend.

The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have five flavors!

Although the atmosphere on the wine table did not get up, it was not as dull as it was just now, and everyone's words increased, especially Zhang Zongqi, who laughed loudly, and I don't know if it was because he drank too much.

Xu Liang was in good spirits, and after eating a little, he began to lead his words to the main topic of today's negotiations, and said seemingly intentionally or unintentionally: "This Ye family is not a thing, I heard that the ships of the entire Fang County have been requisitioned and emptied, which has made the people's resentment boiling, and many gentry who know me hate him to the core!" ”

What the Ye family did was aimed at Liu Yuanshan, but it also indirectly damaged the interests of many local heroes, although this is not as hateful as Xu Liang said, but there must be resentment.

Liu Yuanshan didn't care about this, his heart suddenly burst, and he said secretly: It's time to come or come, it depends on how much interest can be saved today.

"Yes!" He answered lazily and said, "Indeed, the Ye family is domineering enough!" ”

"Liu Gongzi's osmanthus soap business, I heard that it has also affected a lot, right?"

Xu Liang picked up a towel and wiped his mouth, it seemed very casual, but everyone here knew that the topic was coming.

As a result, everyone, whether they were drinking or eating, all stopped their hands and mouths in unison, and looked at Liu Yuanshan who was still feasting.

"Fortunately, his closure of the river is nothing more than a matter of the past two days, and I can still stand it!" Liu Yuanshan stretched out his hand and pulled a rabbit leg from the plate in front of him, and looked at everyone: "What are you eating and drinking, what are you watching me do?" ”

"I'm afraid it's not just these two days!" Xu Liang touched the thick stubble and smiled, and said, "Your time in Fang County is still too short, and you don't understand the power of the Ye family, even if it is me, I don't want to fight with them." ”

"I've also heard some of the grievances between you and the Ye family, they are targeting you this time, they don't want to settle things in three or two days, I'm afraid they won't stop if they don't put you to death!"

"Really?" Liu Yuanshan put down the meat in his hand and looked ignorant.

Zhang Mo glanced at him, and secretly said that this guy can really pretend, he knows everything, but he came to be confused.

"Can't be wrong!" Xu Liang knocked on the table with his backhand, "So, you're in big trouble!" ”

Speaking of this, he got up again and paced around the hall slowly, as if thinking, but his mouth did not stop: "Your osmanthus soap business, I'm afraid it will be difficult to do in the future, not only, if the Ye family is heavy-handed, I'm afraid it will be difficult for your Liu family to survive in Fang County." ”

"Still. It doesn't matter! ”

Xu Liang turned around and looked at Liu Yuanshan gently while touching his stubble.

Intimidating the young man in front of him is not the purpose, the purpose is to make him obediently hand over his interests.

"Although the general and the Ye family can't say that they can't be friends in the world, they also have some affection, I'll help you make peace with your affairs, and when you go back, you apologize to the second son of the Ye family in person, and this matter is over, but the osmanthus soap can't be done anymore."

"Oh......" Liu Yuanshan pulled a long voice, got up and saluted Xu Liang, and said, "Thank you so much General Xu!" ”

"Thank you, of course, you have to thank you!" Feng Kexing's face was now slightly better, but there was still a hint of paleness, he stood up, nodded at Liu Yuanshan, and said, "Although Liu Gongzi is young, he is a wise man. Osmanthus soap benefits the people, your Liu family can't do it, it's better to give the recipe to the general, so that you can not only keep the family, but also get a lot of profits. In the future, why not be a rich man! ”

"Haha!" Zhang Zongqi also said: "As the saying goes, many friends have many roads, in the future, Xiao Liu Xianggong will be my friend of Lao Zhang, who bullies you in the locality, as long as you tell me, it is not a matter to be angry for you!" ”

Liu Yuanshan was silent, picked up the cup and took a sip of tea, and looked at Xu Liang.

Xu Liang was not embarrassed at all, and spread his hands and said: "When it is unstable today, people are thinking about it." Although I have some friendship with the Ye family, I have to have some compensation. ”

"As the saying goes, no profit is too early!" Yang Zongqi's face was hehehe, a little embarrassed, looking at Liu Yuanshan's gaze was also a little evasive, and said mechanically: "We are not greedy for your family's property, but we can protect the territory and the people, it is easy to say but it is very troublesome, and now the treasury is tight, and the salary of the Liao soldiers cannot be paid on a monthly basis, not to mention our local guards." ”

"yes!" Zhang Zongqi took over the conversation: "The brothers' military salaries have been in arrears for three years, and the usual levy is not calculated, but this expenditure is not small or a thousand taels of silver per month." Some time ago, the bandits in Tongshan were suppressed, and the people got the benefits to live and work in peace and contentment, but our big-headed soldiers are still fighting the northwest wind. ”

Hum!

Liu Yuanshan snorted coldly in his heart, and said in his heart: It is true that the imperial court does not pay salaries, but which one of the local guards is not fat, although it cannot exploit the people like the government, but just find a bandit to suppress the head or pretend to be a bandit to threaten the rich, where is the reason for lack of money?

Aren't you coming and going like this just to occupy Lao Tzu's recipe?

If you want to smoke a little head, I will agree, but I will do it with such a rod, and I won't do it!

"What does the general mean, do you want my Liu family's recipe?"

"Not bad!" Xu Liang said with a smile: "We don't want it in vain, except for the Ye family's intercession, I will give you another thousand taels of silver, but I will not be able to cash it out until I make osmanthus soap and see the profits!" ”

"Then I'm afraid, I'm going to disappoint you, General Xu!" Liu Yuanshan took a deep breath and took a sip of tea.

"You don't give it?" Xu Liang's eyes suddenly turned cold.

"Don't give it!" Liu Yuanshan was categorical.

It's not that he is greedy for some profits, but judging from today's scene, although Xu Liang has a good name, he is by no means a good person.

Give him a prescription?

Hehe, don't say that he won't cash out a thousand taels of silver afterwards, and he won't intercede with the Ye family at all, when the time comes, when it is in his hands, he will have no scruples about what he wants, and maybe he will secretly help the Ye family step on his feet.

If you want this cargo to help, the only way to solve the current situation is to pull him to a warship and tie the interests of this cargo with your own interests.

"Hehe, in my one-third of an acre, that's not up to you!" Xu Liang laughed, looking at Liu Yuanshan's eyes full of banter, "Brothers, come out!" ”

"Sting"

"Sting"

Two cracked sounds!

Then, the curtains on both sides of the hall were torn off, and the ambush soldiers behind the curtains came out.

There were more than 20 people on each side, two people with a torch, one aiming at the other holding a fire fold, and the fire fold was placed near the fire rope and could be lit at any time.

There were a total of twenty firearms, and the muzzle of the black hole was facing Liu Yuanshan's main direction at the same time.

"How?" Liu Yuanshan raised his head, and his face was calm, which made Xu Liang feel the urge to step forward and slap him twice.
