Chapter 49: Transactions

King Xiao Liang smiled lightly and said, "As long as you can do it, the gold and silver are enough." I can let that little brother of yours go too. Tell me about your approach. ”

Jiang Zhenzi shook his head: "The little prince is really not a member of my generation, and he can't make an incision." ”

King Xiao Liang blushed and said, "Aren't you more at ease in this way, Jiang Fatty?" ”

"That's too." Jiang Zhenzi nodded and said: "The matter is actually very simple, little prince, you give me the goods outside the city, just tell me the unloading location in the city, and I have my own ship to transport the goods into the city." It's just that the place of unloading must be on the bank of the Bianhe River. ”

Ladies and gentlemen, the Bianhe River in the Song Dynasty crossed Bianliang City.

"When can it be shipped?"

"You can do it at any time, receive it on the same day, and enter the city within five days."

"What's the price?"

"Then it depends on how big the little prince's boat is?"

"This, I can't remember exactly, how big is your boat?"

"The water of the Bianhe River is shallow, and the depth is six feet, and my boats are all flat-bottomed boats that can carry 500 stones."

"How much does it cost to get your 500-stone punt boat?"

"Three thousand taels of gold per ship, pay the full amount first, and then transport the goods."

"Fat Jiang, are you too ruthless?"

"This is a brain-losing business, my Jiang fat man has always been a clear real price, and Tong Su is not bullied."

"Okay, for the price. But what if the goods are lost? ”

"The rules of the rivers and lakes, what you lose loses and what you lose."

"That's two ordnance, more than 100,000 pieces of cargo, how can you compensate Jiang Fatzi?"

"Ha Lu Ha it seems that the little prince is looking down on me Jiang Zhenzi, after the Liangshan heroes were recruited, the little whirlwind Chai Jinchai officials once went to our store to drink. Chai Daguan said that the article of the Chai family's iron coupon Danshu is that if the holder of the iron coupon Danshu does not rebel, no one can harm him; But if the government thinks that you are going to rebel, this iron coupon will not protect you, just like when Gao Lian, the prefect of Gaotang Prefecture, relied on the power of his brother Taiwei Gao Yu, and forced Chai Daguan to take him out of prison. And my holy decree is in Wufu Street, my Jiang fat man is half a level high, and no one can help me. My Wufu Street is a hundred feet in circumference, can live in thousands of people, every time I take in a death row prisoner, I will receive ten taels of gold per month, ordinary prisoners, ten taels of official silver per month, do you say I can afford to pay? ”

Yue Fei became more and more angry the more he listened in the next room, and he couldn't listen to it anymore and turned to leave.

After another stick of incense, King Xiaoliang and Jiang Zhenzi walked out of the inn together, looking close. Just as they were about to wave goodbye to each other, King Xiao Liang suddenly asked, "Fat Jiang, is your holy decree true or false?" ”

Jiang Zhenzi leaned into the ear of King Xiao Liang and said: "This holy purpose is that there are archives in the palace and Kaifeng Mansion to check, and the little prince can go and check it himself, but this freight will now be added to four thousand taels of gold per ship." ”

Xiao Liang Wang's face changed, he no longer paid attention to Jiang Zhenzi, walked quickly onto the sedan chair, and drove home.

Jiang Zhenzi had just returned to the elegant seat on the second floor of the store when he saw Yue Fei sitting in it with a gloomy face.

Jiang Zhenzi naturally understood Yue Fei's thoughts, and deliberately asked, "Did you hear anything about my conversation with that Xiao Liang King just now?" ”

Yue Fei asked rhetorically, "Do you really want to take that Xiao Liang King's money?" ”

Jiang Zhenzi was happy and replied: "Of course, is it true that someone sends money over and doesn't want it himself?" ”

Yue Fei was a little excited, and said, "Don't you know that this smuggling of ordnance is a great crime of rebellion and rebellion?" β€œ

Jiang Zhenzi's face sank, and he said coldly: "This is what you heard? β€œ

Yue Fei was taken aback, calmed down, and thought carefully: "If Jiang Zhenzi is selfish, he will definitely not let me eavesdrop next door, there must be some reason in it." ”

Yue Fei thought about it, hugged his fists and apologized to Jiang Zhenzi: "I was in a hurry, I was offended a lot just now, please forgive me, seniors, and give me some advice." ”

"Hmm" Jiang Zhenzi's face relaxed, and the old and cute look hung out again, and said with a smile: "Uncle, although you are strong in martial arts, you have little experience in the rivers and lakes, and you are inferior to that Xiao Liang Wang." Nothing is as simple as it seems. Take the conversation just now as an example, do you think King Xiaoliang really has two ships of ordnance? ”

Yue Fei was surprised: "There is no ordnance, what price did King Xiaoliang negotiate with you?" ”

"You still don't get it!" Jiang Zhenzi shook his head and sighed: "This Xiao Liang King must have heard some rumors about my rivers and lakes, and he wants to explore the road and find out the details." Have you ever thought about two questions: first, Xiao Liang Wang is clearly coming to me to be unlucky, how can there be a cooperation project that has been thought of in advance? Second, if there really were two ships of ordnance, how could he forget the size and load of the ship and use my ship to estimate it, with the wisdom of King Xiaoliang? ”

Yue Fei woke up like a dream and responded: "In this way, these two ships of ordnance are clearly made up by King Xiaoliang on a temporary basis. It's to probe your seniors, and maybe even set a trap. ”

Jiang Zhenzi laughed twice and said, "The son is teachable, it's not too stupid, but uncle, you still call me Jiang Fatzi, I can't get used to hearing about the seniors and juniors." ”

Yue Fei didn't force it, and replied: "Okay, I'll still call you Jiang Da Fatty, if Xiao Liang Wang really takes out two ships of ordnance, what will you do?" ”

"He has a good plan, and I have a wall ladder. But for the time being, you can't leak it, just watch how I tease him. Jiang Zhenzi said, and the topic changed. You brothers are brave and resourceful, and you can do great things. The only flaw is that there is too little experience outside, and there is a serious lack of experience in the rivers and lakes. The clerical boss wrote to me and asked me to teach you the "Art of War" to make up for your shortcomings. ”

Yue Fei was a little disapproving, and said: "I have learned the art of war such as "The Art of War", "Liutao", "Huangshi Gong's Three Strategies", and "Thirty-six Strategies", and I have never heard of any one-word art of war."

"Then if you haven't learned it, does it mean that there is no such art of war in the world?" Jiang Zhenzi asked:

Yue Fei was speechless for a while.

Jiang Zhenzi proudly introduced: "The "Art of War" of the clerical boss is broad and profound, distinctive, elusive, unpredictable, and can turn decay into magic. As long as you really learn this word and can understand it, you will find that the world in front of you has completely changed. The heavens and the earth can go anywhere, and the marches and battles are invincible......"

Yue Fei also smiled and said, "It's been bragging, how can there be such a magical art of war in the world." ”

"I know that young people nowadays are superficial and naΓ―ve, only looking at the surface, ignoring the inside, and can't see through the world at all." Jiang Zhenzi looked like he hated iron but not steel, and said: "I will take you brothers to a place tomorrow, so that you can have a long experience and see how big the difference between this world and the world world in your hearts is, and how far away it is. By the way, let you know the power of "The Art of War". ”
