Chapter Ninety-Seven: Buying and Selling
Hu Jing's eyes were red, as if she wanted to say something to vent her grievances, but in the end she didn't say anything, and turned her head and jumped out.
Chen Yuan chased after him, and Pang Xi behind him shouted: "Shopkeeper Chen, Shopkeeper Chen!" You haven't told you everything you've heard! β
Chen Yuan didn't care about it, and tried his best to catch up with Hu Jing. Di Qing stopped Pang Xi: "Don't shout, let him go." β
Chen Yuan chased all the way, and when he saw that Hu Jing did not run around, but returned to the inn, his heart relaxed.
You know, it's nothing for two people to quarrel, as long as they are willing to come back, the problem can be solved.
Chasing to the door of the room, Chen Yuan knocked lightly on the door very politely, but there was no movement inside.
That sentence was really a bit excessive, and now that Hu Jing was angry, Chen Yuan didn't want to go in and be scolded by her, or even hit him twice. It's better to let her be alone for a while.
Seeing that she was silent in the room, Chen Yuan stood outside the door and whispered: "Sister, I know I said the wrong thing, don't be angry." I'm leaving now, you also know that the Liao soldiers are coming, I'll go and find a way with Di Qing and them, you can rest first. I'll come back when the matter is settled, and when the time comes, I will beat or scold, whatever you want. β
After Chen Yuan finished speaking, he really turned around and went downstairs and returned to the barracks.
Inside the barracks, chaos and order have returned to normal. Li Yi and others gathered soldiers outside to count the losses caused by this chaos to the defenders.
Inside the house, there were Di Qing, the four rats, Pang Xi, A Muda, and Xiaowen who had just come in from outside. And this time, as the loser, Qi Wen, Yelu Nghu, and the man in black were also taken in the middle.
The man in black knelt in front of Di Qing, kowtowing and begging for his life, and the arrogant look in front of Qi Wen just now was completely gone.
Seeing his ugly appearance, I thought that everything that should have been said had already been said.
Chen Yuan saw that everyone's faces were solemn, and after coming in, he asked Pang Xi: "How is the situation?" β
Pang Xi shook his head, but Bai Yutang explained in detail: "The situation is very dangerous now, the sky has reached the time of the day, it is said that the Liao soldiers will arrive early in the morning, and the number is as many as 10,000. The most important thing is that Qi Wen's incident has dealt too much blow to the defenders, not only because this catastrophe has damaged the defenders' strength, but also in terms of morale. β
Chen Yuan looked at Di Qing: "Brother Di Qing, what are your plans?" β
Di Qing's expression was very firm and relaxed. Because for him, it's a thing that can't be chosen. Sticking to Wentong is the task of Wentong's defenders and the task of these 3,000 soldiers. It used to be Qi Wen's, but now, it's his own.
As for whether he can hold it, he doesn't have to think about this, all he has to do is to drag the Liao soldiers here, so that the Song army behind can be prepared! And do their best to keep the people of the city alive. It's his responsibility.
"Now we have four hours left, I have already sent someone to deliver the letter to the surrounding Song army strongholds, and I will stay here. As for you," Di Qing glanced at the people in the room: "You can take advantage of the fact that the Liao soldiers have not yet arrived, so leave quickly." β
Di Qing always had that confident smile on his face: "I will lead people to stick to Wentong and buy you the necessary time." β
Chen Yuan looked at Di Qing for a while: "Brother Di Qing, you can't hold it with those people under your command alone." β
Zhang Zhong was furious when he heard this: "Who said we can't hold it? We have 3,000 people, Brother Di Qing is brave and invincible, and we have never lost to the Liao! β
Chen Yuan sat down: "Of course you can't hold it, because tomorrow just 10,000 Liao soldiers outside the city will be enough to give you a headache, not to mention, who knows if there is still a Liao country in the city?" I'm afraid Big Brother Di Qing can't be sure, right? β
In a word, Di Qing's words are true. The biggest problem he is facing now is not that there are 10,000 Liao soldiers from outside. But I don't know how many Liao annihilations there are in this small city.
Liao can buy Qi Wen, but what about other generals?
When Di Qing didn't speak, Bai Yutang took Chen Yuan's words and said, "Yes, when we interrogated this guy just now, he also said that he was acting on orders, and the person who ordered him was called Yelu Shubao, and I heard that he was a close confidant of the king of the Southern Court of Liao. Now no one knows where Jerushubao is. β
Di Qing's brows furrowed: "Yelu Shubao? Haven't heard of this person? β
A violent cough came from the side, and everyone looked for help, only to see that JerΓΌne Gollum was struggling to sit up.
Chen Yuan went up and helped him: "The Ninth Prince has something to say?" β
Yelune grunted, "Well, I want to make a deal with you, I don't know if you want to." β
Xu Qingzheng wanted to scold angrily, but Chen Yuan said first: "Doing business is the best way to do business, and whether the transaction is successful or not depends on whether the price is suitable or not." If the prince is sincere, he will make a price first. β
Yelu Nee smiled, and saw that Di Qing and the others did not object, and then said: "That Yelu Shubao is the son of Yelu Renxian, the king of the Southern Courtyard, but it is Yelu Renxian who caused the affair outside, so until now, they are not commensurate with father and son. I am sending this news to you. β
Di Qing asked, "What conditions do you want to negotiate with us?" β
Yelu Grune gasped twice: "I'll help you find Yelu Shubao." β
Di Qing asked again: "What about the conditions?" β
Yelu Nee grunted and said: "Let me go back to Liao, I will exchange Yelu Shubao's life for my life, is it okay?" β
Di Qing looked at the four rats, the four rats also looked at each other, not knowing whether to agree or not, on the one hand, this ninth prince is very important, on the other hand, that Yelu Shubao is also dangerous, it is really difficult to choose.
While they hesitated, Jerman grunted, "You want to kill me, but you don't want me to take the map. Now that the map is gone, it's not interesting for you to keep me. β
Bai Yutang looked at Lu Fang, Lu Fang felt that what he said was very reasonable, if Yelu Nie Gulu was willing to help Di Qing find out the annihilation in Wentong City, there was no need for him to kill someone who had no reason to kill.
When Lu Fangzheng was about to agree, he saw Chen Yuan give him a look.
Chen Yuan smiled: "Ninth Prince, you are the best at doing business here, I think the price you offer is too low." β
"The life of your ninth prince is already in their hands, and that Yelu Shubao, if you are in Wentong now, they may be able to catch it without your help. If he leaves Wentong, you won't be able to help. What you are doing in this business, with all due respect, is really unfair. β
Di Qing smiled slightly when he heard this: "That's right, what Brother Chen said is the same as I thought." β
Yelu Gou's eyes suddenly released a wolf-like light, staring at Chen Yuan: "Shopkeeper Chen, I doubt that the purpose of your trip is to do business?" What does a trader do with so many things?
