Chapter 150: A Hammer Deal (Part II)
As soon as Liu Fan mentioned grabbing money, he came to his senses, and when he heard this, he stood up and said excitedly: "Master Guoshi, you are really smart and confused for a while, you can send troops to fight the tribes of those small countries, there must be no money in the treasury of those countries, but there are many rich people among the people, haven't you heard of the saying that the wealth is hidden from the people?" Go and loot them all, and then give the money to Benhou, and Benhou will give you the food, fodder, and weapons you need...... And then you go ahead and grab ...... In such a virtuous circle, we can achieve mutual benefit and win-win, you are good, I am good, everyone is good, it is really good......"
Shu Lu's eyes straightened when he heard this, he smacked his lips, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, isn't it time to talk about an alliance with the Chu Dynasty? How did he feel as if he was talking to a bandit leader about robbery and dirty?
Even Liu Qiaode and Chu Yi, who were sitting on the side, couldn't help frowning, Shouting Hou instigated the Khitan to rob other neighboring countries, if this matter spreads, wouldn't the good reputation of the Chu Dynasty for more than 150 years of intersecting with all nations with benevolence and courtesy be completely destroyed by him alone?!
Liu Qiaode coughed and interjected: "Master Hou, this ...... The ...... you just mentioned" Old man Liu has read the sage books all his life, and he seems to be very unfamiliar with the word "robbery". Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Robbery," Liu Fan kindly helped him out, "What's wrong?" ”
"Ahem, robbery, this ...... Doesn't seem right? Regardless of the Khitan national teacher Shulu beside him, Liu Qiaode felt that if he didn't stop this unobtrusive Shouting Hou, he didn't know what this negotiation would be like for him.
Liu Fan was dumbfounded: "What's wrong?" It's not like we're going to grab it ourselves. ”
As he spoke, he turned his head and smiled kindly, winked and said, "Our bold Khitan friends will help us grab the drop, right?" Shu Lu was silent, but just squeezed out an ugly smile to Liu Fan.
The more Liu Fan spoke, the more he felt that the robbery was extremely operable, and it was easy to achieve it under the guise of the hands of the Khitan, so he continued to foam at the mouth and said: "Robbery is a very high-tech job, Master Guoshi, if this matter is good, it will be more than the money you make from raising cattle and herding sheep in the wind and sun." ”
Although Shu Lu is a very rational national teacher among the Khitan people, but the nature of the Khitan people is full of aggressive nature, after hearing Liu Fan's words, Shu Lu couldn't help but be interested, and couldn't help asking: "Lord Hou, what else is there to say about this robbery?" ”
Liu Fan saw that someone accosted him, and he was even more out of control, and rolled up his sleeves and said excitedly: "Of course there is a saying!" Killing, robbing, and burning all of them with a single move like you does, that's a fool's job...... I'm sorry, Ben Hou is saying that doing this is tantamount to killing chickens and taking eggs, everyone has been killed by you, who will you rob next time? So it's no wonder that you Khitans have to starve and freeze in winter, it's your own stupidity, you deserve it! What should those small countries be in your eyes? It's a customer! You also know that you raise cattle and sheep and then slaughter them after fattening, so why do you forget them when you rob them? For those small countries, you have to plan to rob, you can't rob them all at once, you have to leave some for themselves, so that they will feel that their lives are still running, and they will see that most of their money has been robbed, what should they do? Then make money, and then when they make almost the same money, you go to rob again, remember, the way of robbery can not be too rough, it is better to be elegant, polite, leave a good impression on others, maybe you go again next time, people will take the initiative to pay, save more trouble, this is the same as the state officials go down to collect taxes. Also, try not to kill people, kill people, next time you rob whoever you go to ......"
Shu Lu's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he had to admit that for a nation that is accustomed to burning, killing and looting, Liu Fan's words are very attractive and reasonable.
Liu Qiaode couldn't listen to Liu Fan's bandit theory anymore, and frowned and said in a deep voice, "Hou Ye, Liu Hou Ye, are you off topic?" Let's continue to negotiate, it's not too early. ”
Liu Fan and Shu Lu suddenly realized that the two had wasted a lot of time in a heated discussion about the actual operation of the robbery, and they were getting farther and farther away from the topic of negotiation. Both smiled embarrassedly at each other.
Liu Fan smiled dryly: "...... Uh, negotiate, let's talk ......."
Shulu nodded in kindness: "...... Okay, Lord Hou, let's continue, continue. ”
Coughing twice, Liu Fan said seriously: "The matter of 10 million taels of silver is so decided!" Don't bargain anymore, I gave you such a clever trick, and Benhou hasn't even asked you to charge yet. ”
Shu Lu's face was calm, he didn't agree or refuse, and said in a deep voice: "Lord Hou, you still say the second condition." ”
Liu Fan glanced at Shu Lu seemingly casually, and said lightly: "The second condition is simpler, much easier to handle than the first one." Do you know the Xingqing Mansion of our Chu Dynasty? You Khitans used to be too immoral, and they always surrounded Xingqing Mansion when they had nothing to do, making the garrisons of Xingqing Mansion very insecure. Therefore, if you want to garrison troops farther to the north, you just need to advance a little more in the direction of your Khitan. ”
Shulu frowned and said, "I don't know what Lord Hou said...... How far away is the place where it is lost? ”
Liu Fan smiled and raised two fingers: "Not much, not much, just two hundred miles." ”
Shu Lu silently pondered Liu Fan's words in his heart, then raised his eyebrows, and said angrily: "What does Master Hou mean, don't you want me to cede the land to your Great Chu in Khitan?" ”
Liu Fan waved his hand again and again, and said with a smile: "I misunderstood, the national teacher misunderstood, how can it be said to be a cession?" How ugly it is to say this, it seems that my Da Chu bullied you Khitan, and it will have a bad impact on our Da Chu. National Teacher, please note that Ben Hou means just to garrison troops, yes, just garrison, if you Khitan people are treacherous one day and suddenly stab at our Great Chu, our Great Chu can also know in advance, so it is convenient to arrange defense deployment, of course, if you Khitan have always kept their promises, it would be better, everyone is safe, the garrison is nothing more than a show, and please consider one or two carefully. ”
Shu Lu sneered: "Lord Hou Ye said it so well, the two hundred miles of land, the main peak of Helan Mountain has been included, Liu Hou Ye, if the old man hands over these two hundred miles of land to you, won't he become a sinner of my Khitan Khanate through the ages!" ”
Liu Fan said bitterly: "Master Guoshi, there are not many miles of land in two hundred miles, why bother with this little bit of territory?" To tell the truth, you Khitans are so powerful, just do it casually, conquer a small country, far more than these two hundred miles. If you give this land to Da Chu, our negotiations will be very hopeful to reach a consensus, your country has the help of my Great Chu, the elimination of the Turks will not be a problem, and even food and clothing will be abundant, 200 miles of territory in exchange for the prosperity of the Khitan, it is already very cost-effective, you say yourself, where do you find such a beautiful thing? If this matter is successful, the national teacher should be a great talent of the Khitan through the ages. ”
Shu Lu shook his head and said calmly: "Lord Hou, the conditions you put forward are more than one too much, forgive the old man for not being able to agree, it is better for you to say all the conditions, the old man listens first, if you can talk, we will continue to talk, we can't talk, we don't have to rap anymore, the old man just said goodbye and left." ”
