Chapter 90: Really Awesome!
Count Xuanwu Jin Zhuo's mood was very depressed and depressed.
Because, he just got the list of guests attending Zhang Jin and Xu Qianqian's engagement ceremony.
The momentum is very bad.
Taishou Zhang Chong finally showed his fierce fangs.
There is already a faint posture of besieging the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion from all directions.
There were a few guests who the Earl felt should not have attended, but they were also present.
The first, Tang Yun, the son of the Earl's Mansion of Jinhai in the north.
There is a contradiction between you Jin Haibo and my Xuanwu Bo, but that is also a contradiction between our old nobles?
What do you mean by that you're now siding with the New Deal?
The second, Nangong Ping, the second son of the Marquis of Zhenbei.
This Zhenbei Hou Nangong Ao is a famous general of the Yue Kingdom, commanding the army in the north.
He was an aristocrat, somewhere between the new aristocracy and the old aristocracy.
First of all, he had a fief, but it was not very large, only 800 square kilometers.
Because his ancestor was only a third-class earl, after Nangong Ao was put into the army, he fought in the south and the north, and made outstanding achievements, and the monarch decreed that his title would be promoted to marquis.
All along, this Zhenbei Marquis has been a neutral.
Unbiased between the old aristocracy and the new political faction.
And now, he actually sent his second son to Zhang Jin's engagement.
This is a very bad signal, which represents that Zhenbei Hou's position is shifting.
And the third guest was the last thing Count Xuanwu wanted to see.
Implicit Elemental Messenger.
What does the Hidden Yuan Guild do?
It is one of the several major money banks in the entire Great Yan Dynasty, holding astronomical wealth, and its business spreads to more than a dozen countries.
Over the past few hundred years, the relationship between the Hidden Yuan Society and the old nobles has been very good, and their mutual interests have been very close.
It can be said that the Hidden Yuan Club is the most solid backing for the old nobles.
Previously, the Hidden Yuan Society and the New Deal faction were clearly demarcated, and there was almost no exchange of interests.
And now, the Yin Yuan Society actually sent an envoy to Zhang Jin's wedding?
What is this signal?
Could it be that the Hidden Yuan Society is also going to change its position?
This is tantamount to a catastrophe for the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion and for the entire old aristocracy.
The most important thing is!
The foundation of the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion is also in the hands of the Hidden Yuan Society.
The huge debt owed by the previous generation of Earl Xuanwu was the Hidden Yuan Society.
Not to mention that Yin Yuan would directly come to the door to ask for debts, even if they disclosed the economic situation of the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion, it would be a huge disaster.
After hesitating for a long time, Lord Earl found Shen Lang and said in a rare gentle tone: "Lang'er, Zhang Jin and Xu Qianqian's engagement, don't go." ”
Hearing this, Shen Lang immediately refused.
"How can I do if I don't go?" Shen Lang said: "She is my ex-wife after all, and she is a husband and wife for a hundred days." ”
There is a cool point as a man, which many people have not experienced.
Attend the wedding of your ex-girlfriend or ex-wife, and then have a wife who is more beautiful and noble than her.
Not only that, but also more handsome and radiant than the groom of his ex-girlfriend.
"Lang'er, you speak well. "Lord Earl.
Shen Lang said: "Father-in-law, I have really been preparing for her engagement for a long time. I wrote a book for her, and I made a dress for him, and if I didn't go, wouldn't I have made this dress for nothing? Wasn't that book written for nothing?"
Lord Earl said: "Xu Qianqian cried for a day, Xu Guangyun smashed all the house, where did you write your book in vain?"
How much more?
There are also countless men's portraits of Xu Qianqian.
It's only been less than a day, and the illustrations of the book "The Wind and the Moon in the Golden Vase" are all covered with a layer of white dirt.
It's just that Lord Earl is a serious person, and there will be no relevant associations.
The Earl's expression was solemn, and he said: "Lang'er, the current situation is very bad, Zhang Chong has woven a big net, which is shrouded in my Xuanwu Earl's Mansion from all directions, and the so-called engagement is a rehearsal, once you go, you will be targeted by everyone and will suffer a big loss." ”
Shen Lang said seriously: "The Earl of Jinhai's Mansion in the north also sent someone?"
Lord Earl nodded.
Shen Lang said again: "Our family's creditor is also here?"
Now, the Earl was really surprised.
"And that's not all. The Earl said: "There is also a big man, and his arrival will deal a fatal blow to our Xuanwu Earl's Mansion in terms of momentum." ”
This is what makes the Earl the most disappointed.
Shen Lang's eyes narrowed, another big man would make the Earl's Mansion fall into absolute passivity!
So who is this person?
This should be a banner-like big shot, and this time the position has been shifted.
He couldn't help but search the big people around him in his mind.
"Zhenbei Hou Nangong Ao, he sent someone?" Shen Lang said: "That will definitely not be the son of the world, only the second son, or the third son." ”
At this moment, the earl looked at Shen Lang in disbelief.
He'd just received the list and hadn't shown it to anyone.
Is there really such a smart person in this world?
This is completely different from reciting the "Kim Family Motto" in one night, it is just a super memory, and this is wisdom.
Xuanwu Bo handed over the list.
Then, looking at the map on the wall, he sighed: "Lang'er, I am really a little haggard, and I feel that the building is about to collapse. ”
Shen Lang was stunned, his father-in-law had never been so depressed.
A strong man never shows weakness in front of others.
Although Jin Zhuo has always been not very talented, he will always play the role of a resolute and powerful Xuanwu Earl, so that everyone in the Earl's Mansion can be sheltered under his wing.
And now that the mountain rain is about to come, the wind is full of buildings, and he really feels a little lonely.
Unexpectedly, he showed a weak posture in front of Shen Lang.
Shen Lang was shocked.
This is not good, I still have to eat soft rice, and I still have to enjoy glory and wealth.
Mulan, I haven't slept yet, and Xiaoice hasn't slept yet.
Moreover, on that day I found a particularly beautiful woman at the Earl's Court, about seventeen or eighteen years old, with particularly large eyes and delicate features.
He was thinking about how to open his mouth to Mulan and transfer her to his side.
My good days have only been over a month, and better and happier days are yet to come.
The Xuanwu Earl's Mansion can't fall, and it has to get stronger and stronger.
No, I have to cheer up my father-in-law right away.
......
Shen Lang closed his eyes and entered the state of Zhuge Liang, and it was the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" version, not the "Three Kingdoms" version.
After opening his eyes, Shen Lang showed a reserved and calm smile, as if everything was under control.
"Father-in-law, in fact, the eyes are very clear, and they are not confused at all. Although it is a little sinister, as long as we know ourselves and our opponents, it is not difficult for us to win, why are you so pessimistic?"
Lord Earl: "The difficult thing is to know oneself and the other, Zhang Chong's methods are extremely poisonous, and he is imaginative, which makes people completely unfathomable." The last time he was in Dongjiang County, the Earl of Dongjiang was forced to a dead end by him before he could figure out what was going on, and then he killed him with one blow, which became a stepping stone for Zhang Chongfei and Huang Tengda. ”
Shen Lang sneered: "Otherwise, Zhang Chong's next killing move seems to be confusing, but it is actually clear and simple, and the son-in-law can see through it at a glance, which will be analyzed by the father-in-law." ”
Lord Earl: "Really?"
Zhuge Lang nodded and said, "Of course." ”
The Earl said, "Everyone stand aside and call Old Master Lin." ”
A moment later, the Earl's most trusted confidant, Mr. Lin, arrived.
Then, the two of them waited for Shen Lang's analysis.
Oh no, it's a show!
......
"Father-in-law, Old Master Lin, the main opponent of our Earl's Mansion is Zhang Chong. ”
"In order for me to be able to eat soft rice with peace of mind and enjoy the glory and wealth, I often put myself in Zhang Chong's position, racking my brains to think about how to kill the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion. ”
"Ahem...... Earl reminded Shen Lang to be careful when he spoke, and not to be too ruthless.
Shen Lang said: "What chess pieces you have in your hand can you play." What the enemy fears most, we should do. ”
"What are we most afraid of in the Xuanwu Earl's Palace? First, the feeling of being isolated, losing shelter, looking around, and being surrounded by enemies. ”
"The Lanshan Viscount's Mansion has handed over its fiefdom and military power, and the Jinhai Earl's Mansion and the New Deal faction have joined forces to kill us, and the entire Tiannan Provincial Noble Faction seems to have only one Optimus Jade Pillar left, that is, the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion. ”
"Zhenbei Hou Nangong Ao is a military giant, with nearly 100,000 troops in his hands. His home also had a fief of 800 square kilometers and 2,000 private troops. ”
"The monarch's new policy is like the sun shining, the Marquis Mansion in Zhenbei is like a big tree blocking this scorching sunshine for us, and our Xuanwu Earl's Mansion is under the protection of his shadow to a certain extent. ”
"Although the Marquis of Zhenbei has always been neutral and hardly deals with the old nobles, and even when I got married, he did not send anyone, but it did not hinder the fact that he was sheltered from the wind and rain for our family, because his family had a fief and a private army. ”
And this time, Zhang Chong directly removed this optimus jade pillar, making Zhenbei Hou's position shift to the New Deal. In this way, the entire Xuanwu Earl's Mansion has become the largest veteran nobleman in Tiannan Province, and we are alone under the sunshine of the monarch's new policy. ”
Earl Xuanwu nodded, he felt like this. When he knew that the Marquis of Zhenbei had sent his second son to attend Zhang Jin's engagement banquet, he really had a sense of panic in his heart.
The Marquis of Zhenbei withdrew, and the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion stood alone in the midst of the storm.
Shen Lang said lightly: "Father-in-law, others are unreliable, and the only thing you can rely on is yourself." Our Xuanwu Earl's Mansion is destined to fight alone in Tiannan Province. ”
"The Marquis of Zhenbei has a territory of 800 square kilometers and 2,000 private troops, but this is nothing compared to the power of 100,000 troops, which is also the reason why his position is offset. ”
However, Zhang Chong's move is a false move. Shen Lang said: "He wants us to miscalculate, wants us to invest strategic resources in the Marquis of Zhenbei's mansion, and wants us to do our best to save the position of the Marquis of Zhenbei." ”
"However, we can't put any resources into it. If the Marquis of Zhenbei wants to change his position, let him go!"
"Next, the second thing we fear the most is to be cut off. Shen Lang said: "I know that instead of surplus and savings, our Earl's Mansion owes astronomical debts. Once the silver root is broken, the consequences are unimaginable. ”
"After completing the first two steps of layout, if I were Zhang Chong, I would use the most lethal move next, completely cutting off the arm of the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion and cutting off the vitality of the Earl's Mansion!"
And this third step is the battle for Jinshan Island, and it will be done in one battle. ”
"If I'm not mistaken, the monarch will soon make a decree to completely determine the ownership of Jinshan Island once and for all. ”
"And Zhang Chong and Zhu Rong have been preparing for more than half a year in the dispute over Jinshan Island, so to a certain extent, it seems that we are destined to lose Jinshan Island completely. ”
"Once we completely lose Jinshan Island, our creditors feel that we can no longer repay the debt, and will make up their minds to openly claim the debt, and the debt crisis of the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion will break out, what should we do at that time?"
"It is impossible not to repay the debt, and the monarch will take the opportunity to exert pressure. I don't know how much debt we have, and if I'm not mistaken, I can't pay it out. ”
"Besides, the collateral for this debt is Wangya Island, right? This debt contract should be about to expire, right?"
Lord Earl looked at Shen Lang speechlessly.
He didn't reveal any of these secrets.
Really...... Wisdom is almost demonic.
"To borrow an astronomical amount of debt, you must have collateral. It was impossible for the previous generation of earls to use the local fief as a mortgage, so they could only use Wangya Island. ”
Shen Lang said: "The four major items of our Earl's Palace, the grain of the fiefdom, silk, and the salt and iron of Wangya Island. ”
"The annual income of salt and iron on Wangya Island accounts for more than sixty percent of the total income of Earl's Court. When the time comes, our creditors will ask the monarch to come forward and claim Wangya Island. ”
"And once we lose Wangya Island, for our Xuanwu Earl Mansion, it will not only hurt our muscles and bones, but also cut off our arms and thighs. Sixty percent of our financial resources have been lost, and our only option at that time is to cut off the army. ”
"And as an old aristocrat, if there is no army, it is like a wolf that has lost its minions, like meat on the board that can be slaughtered. Without the army, we will not be able to keep our fiefdom at all, and by that time the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion will be finished. ”
"If I were Zhang Chong, I would kill the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion in these three steps. ”
"Please advise my father-in-law, please advise Master Lin!"
After pretending to be forced, Shen Lang bowed down slightly.
The Earl was really completely stunned.
It's really enlightening.
After being analyzed by Shen Lang like this, the fog in front of him seemed to be cleared in an instant.
Lord Earl and Master Lin glanced at each other, exchanging the shock in each other's eyes.
There was really a breath that surged from the soles of the feet and rushed to the brain.
It's unbelievable!
In this world, there are such smart people?
