Chen Tao was escorted to a room by the jailer and saw Liu Xin and others chatting. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Cao Cao asked the jailer to retreat, while Wang Shuang and the others guarded the door to prevent Chen Tao from escaping suddenly.

Liu Xin picked up a cup, walked to Chen Tao's side and said, "If I'm not mistaken, you should be called Chen Tao, and as far as I know, you should still be from Xuzhou." ”

Chen Tao, who originally looked indifferent, as if he had seen through life and death, changed his complexion in an instant, and stared at Liu Xin deadly.

Chen Tao remembers very clearly that he should not have exposed his background in front of Liu Xin and others.

Seeing this, Liu Xin smiled and continued: "And I heard that your family should be in business, the reason why you came to Luoyang is to seek a protective umbrella for your family, of course, you are a proton to put it bluntly." ”

Proton refers to the hostage that one party voluntarily sent in order to reassure the other party in the negotiation between the two sides, and Qin Shi Huang was also a proton back then.

Chen Tao's face became more and more pale, he didn't expect Liu Xin to know so much information about himself, and everything about himself seemed to be no longer a secret in Liu Xin's eyes.

Only then did Chen Tao remember that the person in front of him seemed to be an immortal master.

Liu Xin smiled secretly, and now the plan is going well.

Liu Xin handed the cup in his hand to Chen Tao and said: "Chen Tao, I'll tell the truth now, we already know who the mastermind behind the scenes is, the younger brother of one of us, am I right?" ”

Chen Tao took the cup indifferently, glanced at Yuan Shao, and couldn't help but nodded.

Liu Xin nodded with a smile, and continued: "Just now Meng De, uh, that is, Master Cao said, we want to let you live, as long as you name the mastermind behind the scenes, I can call the shots now and arrange a carriage for you to return to Xuzhou." ”

Cao Cao on the side saw that Liu Xin had pulled himself in, and said with a smile: "Big brother, don't take you to tease the little brother like this." ”

Chen Tao took a sip of water, sighed, and said with a wry smile: "Immortal Master Liu, you all know who is behind the scenes now, why do you have to let me say it?" ”

Liu Xin smiled and didn't speak.

Chen Tao was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Our mastermind behind the scenes is Master Yuan Shu. ”

Liu Xin smiled again, patted Chen Tao's shoulder, and said happily: "Isn't this the end, it's so simple to say Yuan Shu's name, why do you have to worry about it for so long?" Okay, since you have said the name of the mastermind behind the scenes, I will arrange a carriage, and you can leave Luoyang within today. ”

Cao Cao saw that Liu Xin didn't mention the undercover plan he had just said, so he was a little anxious, and just wanted to open his mouth to remind, Yuan Shao patted Cao Cao and gave Cao Cao a look to watch the changes.

Did Liu Xin really forget the undercover plan? Of course not, Liu Xin is just trying to get away with it.

Because Liu Xin can be sure that Chen Tao will not be able to leave Luoyang as he said, because of Yuan Shu.

Sure enough, Chen Tao smiled bitterly and continued: "Immortal Master Liu, I understand your kindness, so you don't have to prepare the carriage for me, just let me go." ”

Liu Xin nodded with a smile and said affirmatively: "Of course, I will definitely let you go, but to be honest, if you really want to do that, write a letter to your family first, let them leave Xuzhou, and besides, do you need me to go to Yuan's house the next day to collect your body?" ”

Chen Tao's body was shocked, but he didn't expect Liu Xin to guess his thoughts.

Chen Tao was mentally prepared, as long as he was released, he would go to Yuan Shu to plead guilty.

Of course, although Chen Tao has not been with Yuan Shu for a long time, he is also very aware of Yuan Shu's character, and he will definitely not believe that Liu Xin and others already know that he is the mastermind behind the scenes, and will insist that he betrayed him, so he may not escape death today, and he can only hope that his family will not be harmed.

However, what Liu Xin said also gave Chen Tao a wake-up call, how could a person like Yuan Shu not be angry with his family?

Chen Tao suddenly felt a burst of despair, and he couldn't imagine that he not only failed to glorify the lintel, but let the whole family bury him, Chen Tao only felt that he was sorry for his ancestors.

Liu Xin on the side saw that the time was ripe, and finally got to the point, "Chen Tao, I heard that the reason why your family asked you to follow Yuan Shu is that they hope that Yuan Shu can take care of your family's caravan, am I right." ”

Chen Tao nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Liu Xin smiled, pointed to himself and said, "You should know who I am." ”

Chen Tao suddenly smiled, nodded and said, "Of course I know, Immortal Master Liu's name is now in Luoyang, who doesn't know, who doesn't know?" ”

Liu Xin nodded and said with a smile: "Thank you for the compliment, then you should know about the auction I held in Chengdu, right?" ”

Chen Tao nodded, and couldn't help but admire: "Of course I knew about the auction in Chengdu, but unfortunately I couldn't go to the scene in person, I heard that there were all kinds of rare treasures at the auction, and the final transaction price reached one million taels of gold." ”

Liu Xin nodded, and said: "Since you know so much about the auction, then I don't need to bother to make an introduction, I'll tell you the truth like this, I hold this auction, naturally it can't be to do a hammer deal, I have determined that there will be many auctions every year, but Yizhou is in a corner, and the influence of Chengdu Auction House is difficult to expand to the entire Han Dynasty, so I plan to open a branch in Xuzhou, and I am naturally responsible for the auctions, and the profit of each auction is 10%, Naturally, it's owned by the person in charge of the branch, so you know what I mean. ”

Chen Tao's eyes lit up, in his opinion, the Chengdu auction was held in Yizhou, and the time was urgent, so basically except for a few outsiders, only Yizhou's family businessmen participated, and the transaction price of one million taels of gold looked very amazing, but Chen Tao believed that if the auction was held in Xuzhou, even if it was only ten days for publicity, it could attract more wealthy families, wealthy businessmen and giants to come, and the final transaction price might break two million taels of gold!

Chen Tao felt sorry for Liu Xin for a while.

However, Chen Tao is now very clear about Liu Xin's words, Liu Xin wants to use the position of the person in charge of Xuzhou Auction House in exchange for his own effectiveness.

However, Chen Tao was not carried away by interests, because Chen Tao is very self-aware, he is just the son of an ordinary businessman, how can He De be favored by Liu Xin, and still give heavy profits? !

Chen Tao didn't believe that pie would fall from the sky, and it could hit his head. (To be continued.) )
