Chapter 358, Attack and Defense

I can't even take back Daddy's bones! ......" Gai Wu's tightly clenched fists slammed on the desk, his eyes blood-red, like a wounded young beast, and he lost all his support overnight.

Tan Yuyu's mood is very complicated. She sympathized with Gai Wu. Even if she was locked up in the underground palace for ten years, her sky never fell. Father and mother were firmly propped on top of her head at all times.

At the same time, she breathed a sigh of relief. Although this matter is related to himself, it is not caused by himself after all. Since Tan Invite Yu knew his short life, he didn't want to take too much responsibility, so as not to inadvertently let anyone down.

Tan Yuyu also felt some unspeakable guilt, because the danger of the Lu Shuihu people happened to end the dilemma of Qiu Chi. She could see that Qin Zhongzhi already had a look of joy on his face that was difficult to hide.

Qin Zhongzhi's idea of fighting this mercenary army is not a day or two. He even prepared commissions and grain and grass, and only waited for Tan Yuyu to give an order, so that he could attack the south and the north.

If it weren't for the fact that Master temporarily asked Tan Zhaoyu to preach in the North, this mercenary army of Lu Shuihu would have already become the vanguard of Qiu Chi.

Of course, the overstretched treasury at that time was also the main reason why Lu Shuihu people could not be employed.

But now it's different. The Lu Shuihu people were forced to leave their homeland to defect, and if they wanted to stay in Qiuchi, then they would have a subordinate relationship with Qiuchi rather than an employer.

In this case, it hurts to talk about money again.

Qin Zhongzhi was afraid that he had already calculated this, so he replied to Invite Yu so leisurely just now.

Knowing that Qin Zhongzhi wanted to take this opportunity to squeeze the Lu Shuihu mercenary group, Tan Zhaoyu finally had the upper hand in Gai Wu's sympathy and did not do anything wrong.

"I can take them in."

As soon as Tan Yuyu's words fell, Qin Zhongzhi hurriedly called: "Girl! He obviously felt that Tan Yuyu had agreed too easily. This can be haggled for a while.

Tan Invite Yu didn't seem to hear Qin Zhongzhi's protests, and continued: "I can also order the clansmen to teach how to boil salt, and the salt wells in Qiuchi will need a lot of manpower to further expand. I will pay according to weight, so that my people can support themselves. I'm not going to control your usual freedom. There are a lot of caravans coming and going to Qiu Chi, and they can help them dart as usual. ”

After Tan Invite Yu finished speaking, he calmly looked at Gai Wu.

Gai Wu still frowned when he heard all these benefits, after his father's accident, he learned to think more about the pros and cons of everything, sometimes it looks like a good thing, and in the end it is most likely to become a trap.

"What about the conditions?" Gai Wu said coldly: "What do you want to exchange?" ”

Although Tan Zhaoyu sympathized with Gai Wu, she would not be a good person, and her crisp voice sounded in the main hall, "First, although they feel that they are Lu Shuihu people, if they choose to stay in Qiu Chi, they are the people of Qiu Chi. Whether it is boiling salt or darts, they must pay taxes according to the calendar of Qiu Chi. If there is a violator, it will also be dealt with in accordance with the Qiu Chi Decree. ”

"Second, our mercenaries must always keep fifty percent of their numbers in the pool on weekdays. Participate in the protection of the three counties without compensation. I don't even ask how these five adults are allocated and how their remuneration is allocated. You can go and consult with your clansmen on your own. ”

"Third, in case of war, the Lushuihu people must fight together with Qiuchi to resist the enemy. I will treat you like the enemy of the pond army. This will be your new home, and if we can't fight for it together, then I won't allow you to stay here. ”

After hearing these conditions, Qin Zhongzhi breathed a sigh of relief. He was always worried that Tan Zhaoyu, as a woman, although she could be ruthless to the enemy, she would have the kindness of a woman who had a little friendship with Gai Wu.

Gai Wu thought about it, these requirements are not difficult for a strong man, but they are not the best conditions. Fifty percent of the mercenaries stayed behind without compensation, which means that they gave up half of their income to pay the rent left in Qiu Chi. And the rent is obviously a bit high......

The conditions are only fifty steps and a hundred steps. Fifty percent is too high, and thirty percent is the most. ”

Tan Yuyu smiled, "Fifty percent, one percent can't be less." They killed the envoys of the frustrated Monxun and defected from the country. Even for the sake of his own authority, he will hunt them down. I'll take you in, and there's a good chance he'll send troops to the enemy. ”

"Fifty percent of the army for one country to protect each other, I think this is already a very fair price. If not, please ask the right minister to negotiate on your behalf, and you can also take advantage of this to stay for a few more days. After that, let the right side decide. ”

Qin Zhongzhi immediately cooperated with a mysterious smile, the face of a profiteer.

Gai Wu looked at his body and shook it, he couldn't make up his mind for a while, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at Yun Daosheng who was sitting in the first place. Seeing that Yun Daosheng nodded lightly to him, Gai Wucai gritted his teeth and said, "Okay." I promise! ”

Tan Yuyu clapped his hands, and suddenly changed his name and smiled: "That's very good." Presumably, Commander Gai still has a lot to discuss with his own people, so there is not much left in this palace. ”

As soon as Gai Wu left, Yun Daosheng stood up and said, "I'll go talk to that kid, so I won't bother my senior sister here." After Yun Daosheng finished speaking, he gave a salute and left.

Mo Yao also stood up with a twist and said, "Girl, the maid wants to go to see her sister, I haven't seen her for a long time, and the maid misses her very much." ”

Seeing that Tan Yuyu nodded in agreement, Mo Yao also jumped and left happily.

Zhu Rong saw that Yun Daosheng and Mo Yao were gone, and he also stood up and gestured for a long time, which meant that he went to guard the door.

Qin Zhongzhi said with a smile: "Everyone in the palace is now looking towards the fairy queen, and there is no need to bother guarding the door. A certain received a very poisonous herb from a passing caravan and put it in the house. Go try it and take a break. ”

When Zhu Rong heard this, he smiled and showed a mouthful of fangs, and others were afraid that they would tremble with fright, but Tan Yanyu felt that Zhu Rong was simple and cute.

She patted Zhu Rong's head, and the scorched yellow hair on his head was blown up on his head at any time, which was a little similar to the master.

"Go and rest. Thanks to the poisonous fog along the way, otherwise I really don't know how many times I would have to fight hard to break through the encirclement. ”

Zhu Rong continued to grin, as happy as a child who had eaten candy.

After Zhu Rong left, Tan Yingyu immediately collapsed on the circle chair, probably too tired, she closed her eyes and fell asleep without warning.

When she woke up, she saw that Zimo was still sitting beside her, and there was a table of dried fruit and tea on the desk in front of her. It must have been prepared by Qin Zhongzhi. Tan Invite Yu suddenly felt at ease, this is about what it feels like to be at home, right?

Qin Zhongzhi said: "The girl has really worked hard this time. It's better to rest for a day. Everything can be discussed later. ”

Tan Zhaoyu waved his hand, "Now this matter is not in a hurry. But it's always good to arrange it early. ”
