Dong Jingzhen and the other three would exclaim in unison at the same time: "How is this possible!" ”

Lei Shimeng shook his head: "What's impossible about this, most of our subordinates are local people in Yingzhou, and their mouths are not strict, and Boss Shen's old brothers who came to Jingxiang with him, don't worry about people leaking their mouths, at that time, they dug for a month and a half, and Boss Shen's brothers first opened a hole outside the city, dug to the courtyard of the lord, and then dug to me, and the soil dug up every day was directly transported to the outside of the city and dumped." ”

Dong Jingzhen nodded with admiration: "These hundreds of people have been digging for more than a month, and those people under my command can't do it at all, not to mention leaking secrets, they can't bear this hardship alone." ”

Shen Liusheng smiled: "So we have a deep cooperation with Xiao Gongzi." I dug this tunnel a few years ago, and today it can be regarded as coming in handy for myself, you let Wang Shichong's people come over first, otherwise you will wait too long, I am afraid that people will be suspicious. ”

After Shen Liusheng finished speaking, he jumped directly to the tunnel entrance, and the moment the whole person entered the tunnel entrance, the secret door shaped like a floor tile closed with a bang, and there was nothing unusual from the outside.

Lei Shimeng looked at Dong Jingzhen and the others, shook his head, walked out of the screen, and said loudly to the door: "Go and invite the visitors in, and then keep the current distance to guard the perimeter, without my order, you must not approach!" ”

After a while, Wang Renze, dressed as a white-clothed merchant, folded a fan and a scarf, carried a sword at his waist, and walked in leisurely with the family who led the way, not at all like a subordinate, but like a rich son. And the hall opened its doors early. Lei Shimeng and the other four people were in their respective positions just like before Shen Liusheng came out just now. His eyes were staring at Wang Renze, who was not in a hurry all the way.

Wang Ren paced into the hall. Smiling slightly, he put away his fan, hugged his fists at the four people in the hall, didn't even bend his waist, and said, "In Xia Wang Ning, I have seen a few people outside." ”

Because at this time, Lei Shimeng and the other four have resigned, and it is no longer appropriate to call adults or officials, and they are called outsiders. Let all four of them have a light on their faces.

Dong Jingzhen looked at the person, with sword eyebrows and tiger eyes, a face full of meat, big shoulders and a round waist, heroic and powerful, clearly a powerful general, but he was so dressed as a noble son, he was strange in his heart, and asked: "This, son." What do you have to say when you come today? ”

A smile appeared at the corner of Wang Renze's mouth: "I am a friend of Wang Tingshi." Follow him all the way to Yingzhou, today Wang Tingshi went to the suburbs to relax with Chen Sima, and he had no time to separate, so he asked me to ask the four for something. ”

Lei Shimeng has not been angry since he saw Wang Renze for the first time, it is said that this person should be just one of Wang Shichong's subordinates, but he has the style of a noble son, and his gestures are not like a subordinate at all, that innate sense of superiority cannot be pretended, and even the family member who led him to walk in front of him with his head bowed and broken steps is in stark contrast.

Lei Shimeng coughed dryly, and said in a deep voice: "I'm not waiting for my brother, since Wang Tingshi doesn't need us, I have to take the initiative to resign from this position in Yingzhou, and prepare to be a rich man at home, Lei doesn't remember what he owes Wang Tingshi, and I don't know what Mr. Wang wants to ask for when he comes this time?" ”

Wang Ren nodded, and said with a straight face: "Wang Tingshi asked the four of you, and the agreement between him and Mr. Xiao was to withdraw from this Yingzhou subordinate ...... that day."

When Wang Ren said this, Lei Shimeng immediately stood up, pursed his lips with his hand, signaled Wang Renze not to continue, and by the way glanced at Yang Daosheng who was sitting at the bottom, Yang Daosheng understood, and immediately went to the door to close the two doors, and the hall suddenly became dark, and Zhang Xiu took out the fire fold in his arms and lit the two high-legged candlesticks next to Lei Shimeng's seat, which made the hall bright again.

Wang Renze kept silent, smiling and watching these people busy going around, until the four of them sat down again, Wang Renze smiled and said: "Outside the Lei Yuan, your house is really luxurious, and you have to light the lights in broad daylight." ”

Lei Shimeng's face was gloomy, and the already yellowed face under the light looked even more golden at this time, a bit like the Buddha statue in the temple, and he said in a deep voice: "Friend Wang, don't you know that when you talk about private matters with people, you must guard against the ears of the partition wall?" ”

Wang Renze didn't have any change in expression on his face, and still said with a light smile: "My lord said that everything must be said to people, as long as there is no ghost in his heart, what can't he let go?" ”

Lei Shimeng was angry in his heart, but reason reminded him that now was not the time to get angry, so he softened his expression a little and said, "Friend Wang, the four of us don't want to have this useless war of words with you, please continue what you said just now, what does Wang Tingshi want?" ”

Wang Renze's eyes sparkled, swept over the faces of the four of them one by one, and finally fell back to Lei Shimeng's face, and said with a smile: "Wang Tingshi said, since the four of you can abandon your roots in Yingzhou for many years and follow Mr. Xiao, then those shops of yours should also be transferred to our family Wang Tingshi, rest assured, he will buy the deed at a price thirty percent higher than the market price, and he will also keep all the guys in the store." ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the four of Lei Shimeng changed color, and Yang Daosheng was the first to jump up, and his eyes that were squeezed by the fat were almost two slits flashed: "What a crazy boy, dare to come to the door to rob our shop?!" ”

Zhang Xiuyin echoed compassionately: "Friend Wang, you are a guard of the Wang family, alone, dare to say this on our territory, is it too bold?" Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to get out of this thunder mansion? ”

Dong Jingzhen also followed: "Friend Wang, do you think that if you have a sword in your waist, you can scare us?" You probably don't know who we are! ”

The threat and intimidation of these three people was discussed by the four of them when they sent someone to bring Wang Renze over just now, and the purpose was to give the person who came a dismount, and Lei Shimeng laughed at this time according to the agreed plan, waved his hand and motioned to the three companions who were blowing their beards and glaring to sit down first, calm down for a while, and then stood up, and made a gesture to Wang Renze, and said:

"Friend Wang, my brothers are a little anxious, don't take it to heart. I'm the one who is the boss to make a compensatory to you. But then again. They also have reason to be angry. Wang Tingshi and our lord had an agreement to withdraw all the lord's subordinates from Yingzhou, but he didn't say that the shops and properties we left behind also belonged to Wang Tingshi. ”

Wang Ren raised his eyebrows and said softly: "That night, Mr. Xiao said that he would cooperate with our family Wang Tingshi and withdraw all the forces in this Yingzhou City, right?" ”

Lei Shimeng nodded: "Not bad." ”

Wang Ren hooked the corners of his mouth and said loudly: "My Wang Tingshi also said that I don't want to see other forces in this Yingzhou city. Right. ”

Lei Shimeng smiled and said: "We didn't follow the lord at the scene that day, and afterwards the lord just said that I would resign, transfer the property that fell in Yingzhou, turn it into cash, and then go to a new place to help him succeed, and he didn't say that these properties must be returned to Wang Tingshi." ”

The smile on Wang Renze's face slowly faded, his eyes flashed with a terrifying coldness, and he said sharply to Lei Shi: "Then the so-called change of hands between the four of you, is it open to the market?" I also passed by a few shops outside Lei Yuan before I came. It's still the same, so why hasn't there been any resale notice? ”

Wang Ren said this. The eyes were like electricity, sweeping from the faces of Dong Jingzhen and the other three one by one, and finally suddenly turned their heads, and their sharp eyes shot directly into Lei Shimeng's eyes like a sword: "Or, have you already found a way to stay in Yingzhou?" ”

Lei Shimeng was shocked, and the look on his face changed slightly, he looked up to the sky and smiled, so as to avoid Wang Renze's sword-like eyes, but his mind was spinning rapidly, thinking of countermeasures.

Lei Shimeng laughed for half a minute, then sorted out his thoughts, regained his calm, and faced Wang Renze, his yellow face, black and white eyes narrowed slightly: "Friend Wang, we have been doing business for so many years, and there are always some partners." I don't understand the things in this business field, I don't understand it when I talk to you too much, let me say this, our partners have been friends with us for many years, and the transfer, whether it is the operation or the handover of money, is very convenient. ”

"The order we got from the lord was just to transfer the shop, withdraw from Yingzhou, go to a new place to re-operate, and resettle ourselves and our men, as well as our families, all need money, if we sell so many shops at the door of the store, it will only make the profiteers in this city bargain on the spot, and it will be our loss at that time, so there is no public sale, I don't know if Lei explained this, is Friend Wang satisfied?"

Wang Ren laughed: "In that case, why don't you discuss with us about taking over these shops?" Or are you afraid that Wang Tingshi can't afford this money? ”

Lei Shimeng shook his head: "Friend Wang, let me emphasize again, the order the four of us received was just to sell the shop and evacuate Yingzhou, and now someone has already offered us a price that is satisfactory enough, so we don't need to make an offer to others." Moreover, taking over these shops requires thousands of people, involving nearly one-tenth of the people in Yingzhou City, and it is not something that can be solved with money alone. Could it be that Wang Tingshi is also prepared for these? ”

Wang Ren replied calmly: "These are not big problems, if you have money, more than 10 million dollars can be given to you now, as for those guys, except for the old guys you want to bring to a new place, those ordinary guys who don't know what you did before, especially the local guys in Yingzhou, we can keep them all." ”

Lei Shimeng's heart sank, and he lost his voice: "You can take out 10 million now?" ”

Wang Ren smiled: "What's so difficult about this? Since our family Wang Tingshi asked me to negotiate with the four, I am naturally ready, don't you believe in Wang Tingshi's financial resources? Don't forget, there is a ready-made Wanfu Money Village in this city, which is the property of Wang Tingshi, and you only need a word from Wang Tingshi to raise money. ”

Dong Jingzhen calculated in his heart, there are nearly 100 shops for the four of them, and although the transfer fee of 100,000 yuan for a store is about 30% higher than the price of 60,000 or 70,000 yuan on the market, it is still insufficient compared with Shen Liusheng's kind of benefit of about three times, and Shen Liusheng's store can still accommodate his own henchmen, so it is more cost-effective to do business with the surname Shen.

Thinking of this, Dong Jingzhen smiled and said: "Big brother, we must be honest in doing business, since we have promised others, we can't go back on it casually, otherwise we will not be able to do this business if we go elsewhere in the future." You tell me? ”

Lei Shimeng was also weighing the pros and cons just now, although the conditions given by Shen Liusheng were tempting. But the too lucrative conditions always made him feel a little unsure. Let's talk about running the shop left by this man. It is inevitable that Shen Liusheng will put some of his own eyeliner in the guys who stay behind, and he will have to spend a lot of energy to check these ghosts in the future, after all, this surnamed Shen is not his own person, and he can't be completely assured, Xiao Mo also specially explained to him that he wants to keep a hand on Shen Liusheng.

But hearing Dong Jingzhen's words, Lei Shimeng suddenly woke up again, this business is not just about money. It also involves Xiao Miao's cooperation object, and if he cooperates with Shen Liusheng, it means that Xiao Mi can still be friends with the mysterious person behind Shen Liusheng, on the other hand, if these shops are sold to Wang Shichong, it will be a friend and an enemy with this mysterious person, which is obviously not Xiao Miao's choice, let alone his subordinate.

Thinking of this, Lei Shimeng had made up his mind in his heart, raised his head, and said calmly to Wang Renze: "Friend Wang." My brother is right, you have to keep your word when doing business. Since we have already agreed on a deal with someone, we can't go back. Just like my lord and Wang Tingshi also agreed to cooperate, they shouldn't go back on it, right? ”

Before Wang Ren came, Wang Shichong expected this situation, so after he heard it, he was not disappointed, and he was not angry, according to the predetermined plan, Wang Ren nodded, and said: "That's the truth, it's just that Lei Yuanwai didn't give us a chance to compete fairly, so he directly finalized the business with someone, I'm afraid this is not good, my Wang Tingshi will be unhappy, and maybe it will affect the cooperation with Mr. Xiao." ”

Lei Shimeng smiled "hehe": "Friend Wang, we are all subordinates, so we don't have to worry so much about the lord, this transaction was finalized by my lord-in-law himself, and it was told to people before Wang Tingshi came to Yingzhou, I can only say that you are still a little late." ”

When Wang Ren heard this, he was slightly taken aback, but he still had a casual expression on his face: "Oh, that's the case, so who is the master who took over the four shopkeepers?" Wang Tingshi should be very interested to know this. ”

Lei Shimeng was about to answer, but there was a burst of piercing laughter behind the screen, Lei Shimeng's heart sank, he didn't understand why Shen Liusheng would take the initiative to expose himself at this time, but the matter had come to this, he could only cooperate with Shen Liusheng, laughed together, looked at Wang Renze, who was looking up and down at Shen Liusheng who was pacing out from behind the screen, and said, "This Boss Shen is the one who is going to take over our brother shop." ”

Shen Liusheng didn't look at Lei Shimeng, and bowed directly to Wang Renze, and his hoarse voice like gold and iron intersecting sounded again: "Contemptible Shen Liusheng, do some small business in this Jingxiang area, thanks to their care in the past few years, they have reserved a place for Shen in the market in Yingzhou, and the cooperation has always been pleasant." ”

"This time, I heard that Boss Lei and they intend to leave Yingzhou, and Shen also happened to want to expand his business in Yingzhou, so he discussed with Boss Lei and them, and took down their shop. Another day, Shen must personally go to the Thorn History Mansion to visit Wang Thorn Shi. ”

Although Wang Ren did some research on this market before coming here, after all, the time was too short, and it was impossible to get as much information as Wang Shichong got when he talked to Chen Ling at this time, and his understanding of Shen Liusheng was still at the point that he was the only horse dealer in the city, so when Shen Liusheng first came out, Wang Ren kept looking this person up and down, and he was deeply impressed by his gloomy temperament and obvious nasolabial folds between his noses.

After hearing Shen Liusheng report to his home, Wang Ren reacted, and a trace of anger flashed on his dark cheeks: "Boss Shen, have you been eavesdropping on our conversation in the back?" ”

Shen Liusheng smiled: "Don't hide it from Friend Wang, before you came just now, Shen was discussing the specific details of the transfer of these shops with Lei Yuanwai, because Friend Wang was sent by Wang Tingshi, and we estimated that we would also talk about the matter of this shop, so Shen was on the sidelines." ”

Although Wang Renze has a big personality, he has experienced a lot with Wang Shichong over the years, and he is quite shrewd, as soon as he heard it, he knew that Shen Liusheng was not worried about Lei Shimeng and the others, and he was afraid that they would reach an agreement with him in private, so he refused to leave.

Thinking of this, Wang Ren also smiled slightly: "So that's the case." Boss Shen is afraid that the conditions offered by our Wang Tingshi will be better, so that they can't refuse outside of Lei Yuan, so they will trade with us instead? ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of Lei Shimeng and the others changed, and Wang Renzezheng said what was on their minds, if he didn't know that Shen Liusheng had been eavesdropping on the side, in fact, Lei Shimeng would be happy to listen to Wang Renze's follow-up offer again.

Shen Liusheng was staring at Wang Renze, but Yu Guang kept glancing at Lei Shimeng and the others, seeing that his face changed color, he suddenly understood what they were thinking, and secretly said Fortunately, he kept an eye on these guys and kept an eye on these guys here, otherwise maybe they would really switch to Wang Shichong.

Shen Liusheng said: "Friend Wang, you should know that this transaction is not just as simple as Shen and Lei Yuanwai's private trading shop, but involves the in-depth cooperation between Shen and Mr. Xiao. Before Wang Tingshi came to Yingzhou, Shen had already agreed with Mr. Xiao to transfer Lei Yuanwai's property in Yingzhou to Shen, for which Shen also offered a price that was enough to satisfy Mr. Xiao, and even delayed Shen's business elsewhere. ”

"In business, this transaction has been finalized, and Friend Wang should not interfere with it again, otherwise when Wang Tingshi first came to Yingzhou, he would have a reputation for robbing other people's industries, but I am afraid that it will not be beneficial to what he will do next."

When Shen Liusheng said this, his tone was full of threats, and he was undoubtedly tough.

Wang Renze's face was also covered with a layer of frost, and he said coldly: "Boss Shen, if your transaction is a foregone conclusion, then it is naturally inconvenient for my Wang Tingshi to interfere more, but don't forget, in the next few years, you will have to make a deal with Wang Tingshi in this Yingzhou City, and now threaten us like this, aren't you afraid that Wang Tingshi will trouble you in the future?" ”

Lei Shimeng saw that the two of them were getting stiffer and stiffer the more they talked, so he hurriedly snorted, came out to play a round, and smiled at Wang Renze: "Friend Wang, don't misunderstand, Boss Shen means that our deal has been decided, and he has indeed made many sacrifices and concessions, if this transaction changes, his loss there will be great, not that he has any opinion on Wang Tingshi, right, Boss Shen." ”

There was a hint of coldness in Shen Liusheng's voice: "Lei Yuanwai, thank you for your kindness." It's just that Shen heard that Wang Tingshi has always liked to list the conditions openly and honestly, and said that this is called frank and honest meeting, and it will be clear whether it is a friend or an enemy in the future. Mr. Xiao told Shen about this, and told Shen not to play any tricks with Wang Tingshi in the future, which would make him angry, right, friend Wang. ”

Wang Ren didn't laugh angrily: "Boss Shen, you have a clear understanding of our family's Wang Tingshi's temperament!" Yes, Wang Tingshi does like people like you, but I don't know if the nobles behind Boss Shen are interested in meeting Wang Tingshi at a time? ”

Shen Liusheng's face changed, and he said in a deep voice: "Shen doesn't know what Friend Wang meant. ”

Wang Ren shook his head, sighed, and said, "Boss Shen, you just said that you wanted to be open and honest, why are you hiding it again now?" You won't say that your industry in Jingxiang and you started it from scratch. ”

Shen Liusheng snorted heavily: "Why not?" ”

Wang Ren smiled slightly, touched his beard, and said: "Boss Shen, you should know Mr. Xiao, only people with money and power, he will not choose to cooperate, Mr. Xiao has a big heart and high vision, and he will never be an ordinary rich businessman who can enter his eyes, do you say yes?" ”

Shen Liusheng sneered: "Shen and Xiao Gongzi have always been business dealings, and they never ask about what he does, Mr. Xiao said that he wants to be an official in a different place, so let Lei Yuan and them follow, so he asked Shen to take over those shops, is there anything wrong with this?" ”

Wang Ren suddenly burst out laughing, and pointed at Shen Liusheng while laughing: "Boss Shen, do you really think of me as a fool, even if it's a lie, it's so unreliable." ”

Shen Liusheng shook his head, his face did not change: "What did Shen say wrong?" (To be continued......)
