Chapter 110: Ransom Fee
This battle lasted until the sun set, and finally the besiegers were repulsed, and more than 60 people fell, and finally fled back with a shout. Li Yanqing wondered: "This really bad voice is no different from our Daming, is this not a distinction between China and Japan?" ”
"So that the lord will know that these people are not real people at all. The Giant Whale Gang is going to have a hundred true widows, is there still a way to survive in this Guangdong martial arts? He just dressed up his subordinates in the appearance of real widows, taught a few more words of Japanese language, and equipped them with long knives, pretending to be real Japanese bluffers. When the battle array is unfavorable, let them learn to shout a few times and take a knife to cut it. The adversaries were afraid of the real prestige, and most of them did not dare to fight and retreated. Relying on this skill, he defeated several officers and soldiers. But everyone eats at sea, and he can't fool me with this trick. ”
There were many casualties in this battle city, and the coffins stored in advance by the yamen were almost used up. The Chen family carried more than a dozen dead bodies and blocked the door of the yamen to explain the law. As a result, Li Yanqing gave an order, and the officials beat them with water and fire sticks, and the children of the Liang family helped to beat the Chen family and fled in all directions, and even the dead bodies were taken away by the officials.
Liang Ruimin accompanied Li Yanqing to the study and whispered: "Master Liu, it's not a way to fight like this." These people have already dared to attack, if they fight like this again, our Xiangshan is just a small land, and they can't help but attack this old army. In my opinion, it's better to pay the ransom fee. ”
"Ransom?"
"yes. In fact, this is also the old rule, when the Japanese were fierce, they also fought Xiangshan a few times, which time they paid the ransom fee to pass the customs, and the old folks would not have any complaints about the old man, but on the contrary, they thanked the big man for his grace, so that the county was less killed and robbed. A few of us discussed it, and we could probably make up 30,000 taels of silver, and if we didn't have enough money, we would use women and food to make up for it, and I think the rebels could nod their heads. ”
"How can you talk about this kind of thing with the rebels? Do you want us to go out and tell them to give them money and let them go out of the army? I'm afraid it's not that easy. ”
"This kind of thing, naturally there must be a middleman, otherwise the old man would not dare to talk about it. Speaking of it this time, I have to thank the people of the Chen family, it is not easy for them to come out and be this middleman. Chen Rongtai's old temper is a little rotten, but our friendship is friendship, business is business, we can't just talk about business because others can't do it, right? ”
"What Elder Liang said makes sense, I still invite the people of the Chen family to come here, let's talk face-to-face, or I won't worry."
After a short time, Chen Wangzong, the second young master of the Chen family, came to the study. Chen Yanzong is in prison, and the future leader of the Chen family is this second young master.
Chen Ershao was also quite respectful to Li Yanqing, and he gave a salute when he met, with a kind face, but he didn't have those squirrels.
"My parents and I were a little unhappy at home, but it was nothing. If you are not happy, we will buy and sell. The two countries are at war, and they can't delay business, not to mention that two miles are not as big as a war. This time, my Chen family is also for the sake of Xiangshan's father and elders not to be affected by the war, otherwise I don't want to carry this kind of thing on my shoulders, it is really burdensome and thankless. ”
"Chen Gongzi is anxious for justice and righteousness, and he can be a model for Xiangshan, and the official admires him very much. Our friendship is friendship, business is trading, I am clear. I don't know how much benefit Chen Gongzi wants to do this business? ”
"The old rule, one percent of the ransom fee. However, I have to add one more condition before I can come out to mediate. ”
"But you want me to help rescue Brother Ling? This matter should be handled by the official himself, but I am not sure if I can fish it out if I am in the city. ”
"The old parents misunderstood. I want you to promise my grandfather to save my eldest brother on the surface, but in fact, write a letter to Lei Laohu, and let him take my eldest brother's life in prison. As long as this thing is done, I will show enough sincerity to honor you and Lei Ye afterwards, and I promise that I am a much better partner than my eldest brother. I'm smarter than they are, and I won't go against you. Besides, now that the rebel army is besieging the city, my grandfather is so old, if he is hit by a stray arrow, it is inevitable. If this is done, I will divide half of the Chen family's property. ”
"There's no urgency in this matter, let's postpone it. Let's talk about the ransom fee first, we have the heart to pay the money, and the other party must be willing to nod, if it is just a hot deal, we can't do it. ”
Chen Wangzong proudly lifted Erlang's legs, "So that the old parents can rest assured, that end of the year, I don't want to fight for a long time." It has taken so long before and after we have been here, and the food is almost at the bottom, and they have long had no intention of fighting with us. It's just that the shameful knife is difficult to get into the sheath, as long as we are willing to give them a fate, they will happily withdraw their troops and return to the camp. ”
"Chen Gongzi knows so well about things over there, could it be that among the rebels, there are also your friends?"
"I don't dare to say friends, it's just something I can talk about. Now that the people have entered the city, they are staying on my side, and listen to your reply. Whether it is war or peace, it all depends on what kind of attitude we have in Xiangshan. In my opinion, this battle has been fought so far, and you are also the right emperor. The following things, it's time for you to be right, do you say this is the truth? ”
"Chen Gongzi is quick to talk, I love to listen to it very much. But I can't believe it, how did such a big living person enter the city? If he can enter the city, wouldn't the thousands of soldiers outside be able to enter the city, then what kind of redemption can be talked about, and it would be good to wash the city directly. ”
"Old parents, you can't say that. This friend's entry into the city was also a coincidence, and it took a lot of effort in the process. And it's only him, if there are a lot of people, it's not easy to use. Our Xiangshan is not muddy, they also want to talk and don't want to fight, I think it's better for us to poop each other, it's better than two evils. ”
"Chen Gongzi is very knowledgeable. The official has no opinion on this matter. But one thing, I don't count if I say it myself. ”
"Huh? Xiangshan County, your old man is in charge of the world and the land, what else do you say? Is it because he is afraid of the wife of Yanai? Forgive Xiaosheng for being brave, that woman who has no background is not your wife at first glance. It's just a woman, what's the big deal. But she was born a lovely person, so let's do it, you hand her over for a price, and I will spend a little bit of money in the middle, and promise that the price will not be less than eight hundred taels. When the time comes, I'll find you a few more beautiful and obedient ones to exchange, what do you think? ”
"Chen Gongzi, you are wrong. I said that it doesn't count, that is, it doesn't count. Whether this is successful or not, we have to ask his opinion. Lao Rui, hurry up and come out to entertain our Chen Gongzi. Neng Idiot, Qin Tianwang, don't be lazy with you two bastards, take your sons out and serve me well! Haven't you heard that you want to make the official's wife for eight hundred taels, such a good friend, if you don't let him enjoy it, we won't have enough friendship. ”
