Chen Ling was slightly stunned and shook his head: "This, Xiao Miao's operation has never been discussed with me, I only know that these shops are controlled by him, and I don't know anything else." ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "Brother Chen said just now that most of these shops are the property of the four families of Lei, Dong, Yang, and Zhang, so those guys should also be employed by these four families, right?" Are these guys all the servants or servants of these four families? Or are most of them just ordinary people in the state? ”

Chen Ling's head began to sweat, he wiped the sweat on his face, and said: "I don't know about these, even that Lei Shimeng is Xiao Miao's subordinate, I only found out more than half a month ago, or Xiao Mi took the initiative to sue me, and the other three only learned yesterday that it was Xiao Miao's subordinate." To be honest, I was taken aback at the time, these four are all big families in Yingzhou, I didn't expect that they were all accepted by Xiao Miao. ”

"So I didn't know that these people's shops were Xiao Miao's, and it was impossible for me to send my personal guards to investigate, but Xiao Mi knew that these personal guards were all brought by me from my hometown in Lujiang, alas!"

When Chen Ling said this, he thought that he had actually been toyed with and applauded by Xiao Mo in the past few years, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he beat the saddle hatefully.

Wang Shichong knew it in his heart, pondered for a while, and said: "I don't expect that Xiao Mo will be able to change all the shop guys in the hands of the four Yingzhou clans under his command, he doesn't have the ability, and if he really does this." At least thousands of families in Yingzhou City have no way to make a living. It is impossible to spend these years so peacefully. ”

Chen Ling nodded: "Brother Wang is reasonable. Maybe Xiao Mo just grasped the right to operate these shops and used them to make money, and the money could not all belong to him, and the basic interests of the four big clans still had to be guaranteed. ”

Wang Shichong laughed: "What Brother Chen said is extremely true, presumably this Xiao Mo will only transfer the ownership of these shops, if there are really his people in these guys and shopkeepers, he is afraid that he will also transfer most of them to the new place he wants to go, after all, if he goes to a new place where he is not familiar with life." He couldn't start all over again, he definitely had to choose the people he was currently working with. ”

Chen Ling also laughed: "It's still Brother Wang's analysis." Hey, you said earlier, if you still keep the original guys, just send some bookkeepers to run these shops, and finally share it with me, then I naturally won't have any opinion. ”

Wang Shichong shook his head, and his expression became stern: "The problem now is not the proportion of sharing, this can be discussed slowly in the future, and it will be better to divide it by five or five first." What I am most worried about now is that Xiao Mo will sell these shops to Shen Liusheng, who now has the financial resources and motivation to do this. If we don't stop him right away. I'm afraid that this time I can't fight for the surname Shen. ”

Wang Shichong glanced at Chen Ling meaningfully: "Brother Chen, what is the relationship between you and this Shen Liusheng, you might as well say it clearly, if you really don't have a relationship with him, then I have to think of a way, but if you are friends with him, if I use this method again, it will only ruin a big thing." ”

Chen Ling gritted his teeth, finally made up his mind, raised his head, and his eyes were full of determination: "Okay, so far, I am really tied to the same chariot as Brother Wang!" I won't hide it from you, I only heard Xiao Mo talk about this Shen Liusheng last night, he said that Shen Liusheng is his ally, but not his subordinate, and he wants me to contact him through this Shen Liusheng in the future. ”

Wang Shi nodded meaningfully: "These are actually what I expected, Brother Chen is willing to take the initiative to say it, no matter how good it is, it shows your sincerity." ”

Chen Ling's eyebrows raised, and he looked directly at Wang Shichong: "Brother Wang, Chen is sorry for you, and I will only stand with you in the future, don't let me fail my brother." ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "How could it be, the reason why I met Brother Chen so frankly today is because I want to make a career in Yingzhou, and I will rely on Brother Chen more in the future." ”

Chen Ling also laughed, laughed halfway, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Brother Wang, then look at Shen Liusheng, what should I do this time?" ”

Wang Shichong nodded, and said: "Early this morning, Lei Shimeng, Dong Jingzhen, Zhang Xiu, and Yang Daosheng will resign on the same ground, and the four of them will not go to Luoyang with Xiao Miao, but will only stay here to deal with the industry in Yingzhou, and it is likely that they will handle the handover with Shen Liusheng." ”

When Chen Ling heard this, he was anxious and asked, "If they have already decided, then we can't stop them." And will Xiao Mo see our blocking of this deal as a provocation to him? ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "It depends on how Brother Chen talks to Shen Liusheng." ”

Chen Ling was slightly stunned, his brain didn't react for a while, and then asked, "Then how can I talk to Shen Liusheng?" Brother Wang, you are an understanding person, help me come up with a good idea. ”

Wang Shichong pondered for a moment, and suddenly turned to Wei Zheng: "Xuan Cheng, do you think we still need to let Brother Chen expose our relationship in front of Shen Liusheng now?" ”

Wei Zheng smiled slightly and said, "Lord, I won't draw conclusions first, put this stake on the table, and you can naturally choose for yourself after listening to it." ”

"If our relationship is made public in front of Shen Liusheng, it means that we have publicly announced to Xiao Mo that we have also made friends with General Chen, although our original agreement did not say that we can't be friends with others, but Xiao Mo will definitely not be happy to see us get too close to General Chen, and even he will think that we are trying to find a way to persuade him to leave Yingzhou and withdraw his forces, so that General Chen can take over."

"And General Chen went to Shen Liusheng to directly mention that he was not allowed to interfere in Xiao Miao's forces, I was afraid that it would cause Shen Liusheng's dissatisfaction, just now General Chen said that this Shen Liusheng is not Xiao Miao's subordinates, but his allies, and I think the forces behind him may not be so simple."

When Chen Ling heard this, he hurriedly said: "Xiao Mo said, this Shen Liusheng is a force that he has laid down here. It didn't rely on Empress Xiao's funding. ”

Wei Zheng shook his head. "General Chen." Xiao Miao's words are just to deceive you into continuing to cooperate with him, because after he leaves, he would rather leave the inheritance he left behind to Shen Liusheng, who can only be regarded as an outsider, than to you who also works for Queen Xiao, what does this mean? In addition to showing that Xiao Mo wants to be self-reliant, he no longer buys General Chen, that is, he does not buy Empress Xiao's account, but also shows that Shen Liusheng has a very good background. There must be a powerful person in the back. ”

Chen Ling moved his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he held back.

Wang Shichong also smiled and said, "Xuan Cheng, your analysis is very good, now in this situation, we can't take the initiative to expose the relationship with Brother Chen to Xiao Miao, otherwise we will only startle the snake." Brother Chen, I think so, let's go our separate ways. You go to Shen Liusheng, and I go to the four major families. ”

Chen Ling's eyes were full of confusion. "What does that mean?" he asked. ”

Wang Shichong said with a straight face: "Brother Chen, you go to Shen Liusheng, don't say anything else, just say how to distribute his power after Xiao Mo leaves, this needs to have a clear statement, and it can't be said that all the properties under the four major families are given to him Shen Liusheng." Since Xiao Mo told you that he wanted to contact Shen Liusheng, then it is justified for you to go to him, and it is reasonable to mention this matter. ”

"As long as you mention it clearly, then Xiao Mo can't mess up this matter again, otherwise you can find Queen Xiao to sue him. Then you can generously put forward conditions with Shen Liusheng, you can hide the relationship between Shen Liusheng and Xiao Mo from Empress Xiao, but you must take out seventy percent of the property controlled by Xiao Miao. ”

Chen Ling nodded: "It's just that such a condition is offered, I'm afraid this Shen Liusheng won't accept it, just like the mention that Brother Wang also rejected me just now." ”

Wang Shichong laughed: "You mention it first, Shen Liusheng and Xiao Milling are not monolithic, Xiao Milling should have authorized Shen Liusheng to transfer part of the industry to Brother Chen in the future, but it is impossible to be seventy percent, in my opinion, his bottom line is at most two or three percent, but doing business is nothing more than asking for a sky-high price, sitting on the ground and paying back, the more ruthless you drive, the more you often get in the end, because Shen Liusheng can't completely turn his face with you." ”

Chen Ling gave Wang Shichong a thumbs up: "High, really high!" Brother Wang, what's the use of you looking for those four major families? These four are just dogs who obey Xiao Miao's orders, and they can't be the masters, and they can't transfer the property to you. ”

Wang Shichong smiled: "Brother Chen is afraid that he underestimated Xiao Miao, since he chose to cooperate with me and promised to withdraw all his subordinates from Yingzhou, he should have expected it early that I would find a way to take over the shops and properties he left behind, but I am afraid that he will order his four subordinates to leave a part of the property early and transfer it to me, so as not to turn against me, so I need to take this part personally." ”

Wei Zheng laughed on the side: "Lord, this plan is very clever, in this way, not only does not expose our relationship with General Chen, but also can get a lot of Xiao Miao's remaining shops." ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "Yes, if Xiao Mo wants to become an official, including Lei Shimeng, these four people want to be transferred to other places to continue to be officials, they all need our cooperation, at least at this time, he will not dare to turn his face with me." So I went to him first to dig up three or four percent of the shops, and then Brother Chen could split it in half with Shen Liusheng, so that most of Xiao Miao's industry would fall into our hands, and Shen Liusheng would not be more than thirty percent left. ”

Chen Ling was still a little dissatisfied, and said hatefully: "Although it is not a small amount to get six or seven percent, Shen Liusheng still got so much, and if he stays in Yingzhou in the future, he will still be our opponent." ”

Wang Shichong smiled and waved his hand: "Brother Chen, this is just the first step, we will first divide these shops and restaurants and rice shops and salt shops, and then there will be the horse market, wait for a while, slowly digest the industry in hand, and wait for the appointment of Xiao Mo as an official by the way, and when that time comes, he will also try to transfer Lei Shimeng and these people to the vicinity to help, and there will be no power in this Yingzhou City, and we can concentrate on dealing with Shen Liusheng." ”

Chen Ling laughed: "Brother Wang, you are still thoughtful, Brother Wang is not only a famous general who has won a hundred battles, but also a leader in this wisdom and strategy, in the future, in this Yingzhou, I will fight all against Brother Wang." ”

Wang Shichong looked at Chen Ling, a fat man in his forties, still touting himself as a junior here, and felt sick in his heart, but on the surface, he pretended to be very useful, and said with a smile: "Brother Chen, it should be that we support each other in the future." ”

Chen Ling looked at the sun, which had begun to turn westward. smiled: "Brother Wang." You have a great time talking today. I have also established the matter of cooperation in the future, and as soon as I return to the city today, I will go to find Shen Liusheng, and the four major families will have to trouble you to worry a little more. ”

Wang Shichong arched his hand towards Chen Ling and said, "It's okay, then let's go our separate ways, and say goodbye, Yang Daosheng's home is in Wangjiazhuang, more than ten miles south of the city." I just dropped by. ”

Chen Ling smiled, returned the salute, and left with a handful of red horse heads.

Wang Shichong looked at Chen Ling's distant back, his expression was cold, and he didn't say a word.

Wei Zheng sighed and said, "Lord, are you worried about the forces behind this Shen Liusheng?" ”

Wang Shichong's face was solemn, nodded seriously, and said, "Actually, what I have been worried about just now is this matter. Shen Liusheng is rich and has a great background. is an equal ally to Xiao Miao, so there will definitely be a not simple force behind him. Xiao Mo has so many shops under his command, but there is not much money left to feed his entire huge intelligence organization, because those shops are not very profitable. ”

"In the peaceful years, although Xiao Mill's rice shop and salt shop were necessities of life, they also had to come according to the official price, so the benefits were very limited, and they could barely have a slight surplus on the basis of maintaining a balance of payments. But Shen Liusheng's pack horse sales business made much more money. ”

"In addition, he can have enough financial resources to squeeze out more than a dozen horse merchants in the Jingxiang area, and he can buy the Dajiang Gang, which shows that this person is not only the richest man in Yingzhou, but also the richest man in Jingxiang."

Wei Zheng nodded seriously: "So you judge that he has the support of a certain powerful local tyrant?" For example, Yang Su or Li Mi? ”

Wang Shichong sighed: "This person is very powerful, and the vision is extremely thief, Jingzhou is rich in products, the people are strong, and it is located between the north and the south, to the north can map the Central Plains, go to Wuguan can enter the pass from Lantian Qingni, to the west can take Bashu, to the east can take Jiangdong, the past dynasties are important places that can be divided." The strength of the imperial court in the Central Plains and Jiangnan is not too strong, if you prepare early, if you start here, you can attack, and you can retreat to Lingnan, and this person can use Shen Liusheng and Xiao Mo to set up a situation here, and use the ordnance and war horses as a cover in the form of an official arsenal, which is obviously very smart, and this kind of trick is probably only available to the giants of Long. ”

Wei Zheng said: "Does the lord think it will be Yang Su, the prince of Yueguo?" ”

Wang Shichong thought about it carefully, his eyes blazing: "It's hard to say, we still have to open the gap from Shen Liusheng, Chen Ling can't deal with him, it seems that sooner or later we will have to face this mysterious businessman directly." Thinking of Li Mi's dark, thin and calm face, Wang Shichong's heart moved, and the words came to his mouth, but he swallowed them again.

Wei Zheng nodded and said, "Don't care about Xiao Mo for the time being, just say Shen Liusheng, lord, can you be sure that this Shen Liusheng will give Chen Ling face?" Share the property left by Xiao Milling with him? ”

A strange smile appeared on Wang Shichong's face: "Will you spit out the meat in your mouth when you eat it?" Will the money stuffed in the pocket be pulled out? Will you willingly hand over the property you have in hand? If Xiao Mo wanted to leave his property to Chen Ling, he would have given it as early as last night when they met, but he didn't give it then, and he won't give it in the future. ”

Wei Zheng shook his head: "In this way, Xiao Mo has offended Chen Ling too much, and he doesn't leave a way back for himself at all!" ”

Wang Shichong shook his head: "Xiao Ling is no longer in Yingzhou anyway, there is no need to maintain a relationship with Chen Ling, as for Chen Ling suing him, I guess he will not be afraid, because Chen Ling also has a self-reliant heart in this Yingzhou, and when the time comes, as long as he comes to a wicked person to sue first, then Queen Xiao will not believe Chen Ling." ”

"And Chen Ling said just now that he had sent a messenger to help Xiao Mo confirm that Aunt Liu's death was my doing, so it was not easy for Chen Ling to change his mind."

Wei Zheng sighed: "It's all because of this pig's head, it was so easy to fall for Xiao Miao, but in that case, why did the lord instigate him to go to those shops knowing that it was impossible for Chen Ling to go back to those shops from Shen Liusheng's hands?" ”

Wang Shichong laughed: "Aren't they making a feud in this way?" No matter who the force behind Shen Liusheng is, at least he offended Chen Ling, that is, he offended Empress Xiao. Although Chen Ling is not smart, he will not be stupid enough to fight Shen Liu's life and death with his current strength and completely isolate himself, he will definitely turn to us for help after Shen Liusheng suffers a loss, he will definitely be! ”

When Wang Shichong said this, his eyes were like torches. The expression is resolute.

Wei Zheng nodded. Then he asked, "My lord." According to what you said, Xiao Mo didn't agree with you about the transfer of those properties to you, so he doesn't plan to leave those to us, is it necessary for us to go to the four major families? ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "It is necessary, absolutely necessary!" And I've already sent Ren Ze over. It's one thing whether they give it or not, and it's another thing whether we go or not. In any case, I have to constantly strengthen the impression we gave Xiao Miao, which is in this Yingzhou City. Only our own forces can survive, and the others, whether they are Shen Liusheng or Chen Ling, cannot run their own forces without our consent. ”

Wei Zheng was shocked by the cold killing intent when Wang Shichong said this, and he was speechless for a while, and after a while, he smiled and said, "Can Ren Ze be competent?" ”

Wang Shichong put away the awe-inspiring momentum when he spoke just now, smiled slightly, and said, "If he can't do it." It's not the eldest nephew of the Wang family who has been with me Wang Shichong for so many years. ”

Two hours ago, it was just noon. In Lei Shimeng's mansion in Yingzhou City, Lei Shimeng, Dong Jingzhen, Zhang Xiu and Yang Daosheng were seated separately from the guest and host, the door of the living room was closed tightly, and the guards outside the door were withdrawn twenty steps away, guarding from a distance, and no one was allowed to approach.

In this broad daylight, this usually spacious and bright hall is now dark, only a few rays of sunlight through the window lattice, reflected on the faces of the four people, light and dark, with their gloomy expressions and fierce faces, so that the audience is all afraid.

Sitting on the top seat is the yellow-faced, but with a fierce beard, looking more like a bandit of the former Yingzhou catcher Lei Shimeng, he changed into a yellow satin suit at home today, tattooed with a large copper coin, if it were not for this strong figure and strong muscles, would be regarded as a rich family.

Sitting next to him was Dong Jingzhen, who was of medium stature, with a dark face and long flowing hair, who was also wearing a blue satin dress, with soft feet covering half of the top of his head, and his eye sockets were deeply sunken, while his eyes that kept turning revealed a hint of wolf cunning and ferocity.

Zhang Xiu and Yang Daosheng, who were sitting in the next guest seat, were obviously a lot more bookish, both of them looked white and clean, and their beards under their chins were also neatly trimmed. The one with small eyes in green clothes and a thin figure is Zhang Xiu, while the one in a gray silk coat, with a Chinese face, big ears, and a fat body is Yang Daosheng.

Lei Shimeng coughed dryly, picked up the teacup on the table at hand, took a sip, and said, "Have you already handed over the resignation letters of the three virtuous brothers?" ”

Zhang Xiu and Yang Daosheng nodded in unison, while Dong Jingzhen smiled "hehe": "Brother Lei, since I received the order from the lord last night, I wrote my resignation overnight and handed it to the state government early this morning." ”

Lei Shimeng nodded with satisfaction: "Then let's sum it up now, how can the shop in everyone's hands be transferred to Boss Shen smoothly." ”

As soon as Lei Shimeng said this, the other three were silent, and everyone invariably picked up the teacup in their hands, opened the lid of the cup, and blew into it, but held it in their hands and did not continue to drink.

Lei Shimeng knew the thoughts of the three people, and put on a stern expression on his face: "Three virtuous brothers, this is the explanation of the lord, we only have the share of execution, and we can't discount it at all." ”

Lei Shimeng glanced at Dong Jingzhen, who was sitting on his right hand, gently blowing tea, and didn't even raise his eyelids, sneered, and said, "Brother Dong, are you dissatisfied with the lord's decision?" ”

Dong Jingzhen put down the teacup in his hand casually, his face did not change, and said: "We have all sworn in front of the lord, and we will be loyal to him for the rest of our lives, how dare we be dissatisfied." ”

Lei Shimeng heard the sour taste in these words, "hummed", and said: "Brother Dong, I know that you are dissatisfied with this decision, yes, it is indeed difficult to accept to take out all the shops in your hands and transfer them to others, but anyway, we are going to leave this Yingzhou, and it is useless to ask for these shops, besides, didn't the lord say it, in addition to the money that Boss Shen gave us, we will be transferred to Yuezhou in the future, and we will be compensated there."
