For those who have not entered those top families, it is difficult to imagine what kind of gold and grandeur the accumulation of hundreds of years is. Even in early winter, you'll still see lush evergreens and well-decorated attic pavilions along the way. Just the periphery of the front yard of this family took a full ten minutes.

Although Dian Yong is the son of Haoqiang, his family background is declining after all. Suddenly seeing the wealth of the top gate valve, I was inevitably greatly shocked. Thanks to him, he is not very human, although he is surprised in his heart, his face is always the same.

This calmness made the accompanying Lin family look the other way.

As the general of Tiangong and the leader of the righteous army, Chen Wu can have this expression. Now even Dian Yong is like this, and he has to surprise them.

How many such talents are there in the famous Taiping Army?

Finally, bypassing the flowing water in front, Chen Wu, Dian Yong and the Lin family arrived at the most outstanding garden view of the Lin family's mansion - Langya Pavilion. The area is enough to tens of thousands of square meters, the central pavilion is more gorgeous, with Yunding sandalwood as the beam, crystal jade as the platform, the pearl curtain is hung on all sides, and the ground dragon fire kang is laid underground, even in winter it can be warm as spring, extremely luxurious. At the top of the pavilion, a fist-sized pearl of the night hangs high, shining brightly, echoing with the crystal lamps of 64 on each side, and its brilliance makes people dazzled.

As Chen Wu, Dian Yong and everyone in the Lin family took their seats, the pretty maid dressed in flowers and butterflies walked up. After taking turns to deliver jasper, golden foot bottles, jade plates, refreshing tea, gargling ginseng soup, seasonal melons and fruits, and various kinds of wine, in the melodious and pleasant sound of silk and bamboo, the exquisite food box began to be served.

Twenty-four cold cuts, forty-eight hot dishes, a variety of dishes.

Just the appetizer is unimaginably luxurious.

Think about the way the rebels started before. How many homeless people are desperately killing the city in order to eat a full meal, and comparing the feast of the Lin family in front of them, it will make people have an indescribable complex mood.

The ancient poem "Zhumen wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road" before crossing is too incisive. Whip in!

After the maid tasted the food with a small plate and inspected the silver needles one by one, Lin Anhe raised a glass to persuade the wine, and the atmosphere quickly became hot. Even before the crossing, Chen Wu had only experienced a banquet of this specification a few times, so it was rare that he didn't think much about it, but enjoyed this luxurious experience to the fullest. However, this calmness and harmony without the slightest discomfort is another matter in the eyes of the Lin family, who are secretly observing him.

"This person is really from a certain big family!"

Lin Anhe, Lin Yunwen, Lin Anluo and others unanimously determined this.

The feast they used to entertain. There are a lot of details and exquisiteness, and Lin Anhe deliberately told the maid to take care of it slowly. Like Dian Yong's side, there were several jokes that were not big or small, and they didn't know it, and the Lin family didn't see it. However, Chen Wu was very skillful from beginning to end, and did not make the slightest mistake.

If you say that the villagers in a small place who have never seen the world can do this casually. The son of the family carefully cultivated by the Lin family could move a brick and die head-on.

I just don't know, which family Chen Wu comes from?

With this question. Lin Anhe intentionally or unintentionally diverged the topic, knocking on the side. But no matter what he talked about, Chen Wu could answer calmly, and occasionally he could say unique insights that surprised Lin Anhe. The breadth of his travels and the breadth of his vision are far beyond Lin Anhe's imagination.

As far as the four countries of the Western Regions, the anecdotes of the three families of Zhongzhou, the imperial capital. He could have interjected.

However, where Chen Wu's identity is really involved, Lin Anhe has never been able to ask. Seeing that the wine had passed three rounds, he had to give up this attempt and asked Chen Wu about his intentions instead.

In other words. How to solve the problem of the Lin family.

If you don't figure this out, the rest of the Lin family will be difficult to swallow, even if these delicacies from the mountains and seas in front of them are all from the top chefs in Wu'an.

"Ben Jiang's intention?"

When asked this question, the slight drunkenness on Chen Wu's face disappeared instantly, and looking at the Lin family members who were staring at him, he said lightly: "The Lin family's eight major valves are famous all over the world, and they will naturally know about it." Although there was a conflict before, you and I both suffered heavy casualties, and the so-called grievances should be resolved rather than settled, so this trip naturally came with peace. ”

Saying this, he glanced at the faintly visible figure in the darkness in the distance of Langya Pavilion, and said word by word: "I just don't know, whether the Lin family is willing to ask for it!" ”

"Lin would like to hear about it."

Lin Anhe did not let go of Chen Wu's word "peace", he knew that Chen Wu did not attack directly, not because he was afraid of the Lin family, but because he was unwilling to break with the family class represented by the Lin family. But if you don't fight or don't fight, it doesn't mean that you will let go of the Lin family in vain, and you will definitely put forward enough interest requirements.

"First, the Lin family's private soldiers will be able to keep it, but they must hand over all their weapons and armor! In addition, they are not allowed to leave the house until they have the permission of the rebels, and they must be monitored by the soldiers of our rebels. ”

"What a big guts!"

"Traitors dream!"

Just the first condition has once again stimulated many Lin family members to take the case. In their opinion, Chen Wu obviously deliberately made a peaceful appearance in order to paralyze them. Once the Lin Mansion hands over the weapons and armor and abolishes its martial arts, it is equivalent to the tiger pulling out its teeth, and it will not be slaughtered by others at that time.

Lin Anhe was unmoved, his eyes swept over the clansmen, and immediately pressed them back.

He was noncommittal about this first condition, and motioned for Chen Wu to continue.

"Second, within a week, deliver 100,000 stone grain to the rebel army and 5 million imperial golden tickets!"

This request is also extremely staggering, and in the eyes of many people, it is a lion's mouth. However, the attitude of the Lin family was not as fierce as before.

The reason is very simple, the Lin family can afford it!

The wealth of the eight major valves has always been in billions of gold coins. Although five million is an astronomical amount, the Lin family squeezed it and struggled for a few months with difficult turnover, and it was completely possible.

For them, it's not even nerve-wracking.

"Third, one hundred sets of heavy armor and two hundred war horses!"

After saying the three conditions, Chen Wu closed his eyes and slowly took the tea in front of him.

He has already made a offer, and it is definitely a conscience price. As long as the head of the Lin family doesn't go crazy, he will definitely agree in the end.

If he didn't want to keep the line of the Lin family in case of future contact, even if the lion opened his mouth and doubled the asking price, the Lin family could only agree in the end. After all, compared to the momentary pain and the destruction of the family, it is needless to say how to choose.

In fact, after listening to Chen Wu's words, Lin Anhe did breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.

In his imagination, Chen Wu might offer conditions that were much harsher than this, and there was no lack of content that was very sensitive and made it extremely difficult for him to make a decision. Now Chen Wu has offered these three conditions, which are just above his psychological price, and he can directly agree without hesitation.

Of course, whether the rebels will abide by the credit, rather than repeating it after the fact, is also a point that needs to be carefully considered.

After discussing a few words in a low voice with several elders of the Lin family, Lin Anhe sat up straight and asked, "I already know the general's conditions. So, what do we get if we say yes? ”

"Two o'clock!"

Chen Wu raised two fingers: "First, if Wu'an is in my hands for a day, the Taiping Righteous Army will not enter the Lin family's mansion for a single step; Second, my rebel soldiers will try their best to protect the Lin family's property in Wu'an City. ”

He only emphasized the Taiping Rebels, but did not mention other forces such as the Good Friends Association.

Of course, Lin Anhe heard this.

After a moment of deep thought, he spoke: "First point, I know that the general is quite wary of the Lin family, and I am willing to believe in the general's promise. However, you are not the only one in the rebel army, and other thieves such as the Good Friends Society do not understand the power of the family. I can guarantee that as long as the rebels do not enter the Lin Mansion, the people of the Lin family will not go out. However, there is always some strength to guard against those little thieves. ”

Chen Wu nodded slightly and said, "What does the head of the family mean?" ”

"Hand over half of your weapons and armor, and at the same time, the rebels' brigade retreats to a mile away!"

"So be it." Chen Wu decided not to go around in circles with him, and directly reported a real number: "My Taiping Righteous Army is ready to expand the army after defeating Wu'an, but it still lacks blades and armor. As long as the Lin family gives me a thousand sets of weapons and armor, how much else is left, I don't care about it and don't pursue it, how about it? ”

He knew that the Lin family must have a surplus replacement weapon in their hands, and it was impossible to have one in their hands just right. Even if he forcibly demanded that the armor and swords of the current private soldiers be stripped off, they would still be able to send out new spare goods if necessary.

It's better to simply ask for a wing of arms!

"Yes!"

After a moment of deliberation, Lin Anhe nodded.

There is no need to talk about the second point, Chen Wu knows what the Lin family's wealth is, and Lin Anhe also knows that Chen Wu knows, so both sides didn't bother to speak, and directly made a deal.

It is very cost-effective to exchange these money and food for the safety of the Lin family.

The key lies in the third point.

"Two hundred war horses...... I can call the shots for the generals. Lin Anhe hesitated again and again and agreed to this request, but said in embarrassment: "Heavy armor is strictly forbidden to be held by the empire, and the Lin family naturally does not have it." Being able to equip the generals with those standard leather armor is already the limit of what the center can endure. ”

Most people will believe this, and a small number of nobles will be skeptical, but the Emperor ** Intelligence Bureau and Chen Wu will definitely not believe it.

The family of the eight major valves has been inherited for so many years, who can not have a little background in the family?

What's more, Chen Wu, who has experienced thirteen years in "Empire", really knows a lot about the things hidden in the Lin family's underground secret room. looked at Lin Anhe with a smile, and it wasn't until he was a little inexplicably panicked in his heart that he made it clear: "Heavy armor is the same as a crossbow arrow, and the empire is indeed strictly forbidden to possess it, but ...... Ben Jiang watched the sky last night and found that there seemed to be a sword and killing aura floating above the Lin family's Mending Heaven Pavilion. Why don't you dig ten meters down? ”

Before the words fell, as far as the line of sight could see, the faces of the Lin family head and several elders changed together. (To be continued.) )
