"Lord County, we don't have to ask for help, we don't have to ask for help from other counties in Changning......" Qi Liangchen said after selling a pass.

"Don't ask for help from the counties of Changning? So who else can we count on? When this happens, we don't look for Changning's colleagues, and it's rare that we can still count on others? ”

You Junmin glared at Qi Liangchen viciously, obviously thinking that Qi Liangchen was a little confused now.

"Lord County, why have you forgotten, we have a neighbor who is very tough, even the barbarians have been defeated in their hands, what is the salt workers' rebellion, and he is not our people in Changning, there is no need to worry that he will report to the king, as long as the county head can invite them to send troops, the salt bandits who will extinguish the riot are just around the corner."

Qi Liangchen is sure to be authentic.

"Are you talking about the son of tranquility? Su Zhongqing, the head of Taidang County? You Junmin's eyes lit up, and he slapped his head and said.

"Yes, the head of the county, the subordinates are talking about Su Zhongqing, the head of Taidang County, Su Zhongqing's strong generals in his hands, all of them are old soldiers, unlike our Meiluo County soldiers, although they are well-equipped, they have never been on the battlefield, they are tied up as soon as they fight, and if they change these battlefield veterans in Taidang County, they will definitely succeed immediately, besides, my lord, Su Zhongqing has a relationship with you, and he asked you for help some time ago, I believe that now as long as you are willing to ask for help, I estimate that Su Zhongqing is even for the sake of relatives. I will also send troops to support the reinforcements. Qi Liangchen stroked his goatee and said with certainty.

"But Su Zhongqing's army is all deployed on the front line of the Northern Barbarians to guard against the barbarians, how can there be extra troops to support us? If he mobilizes troops and the barbarians come to attack, he will not gain more than he loses, and he will not be willing" You Junmin said with some hesitation.

"Lord County, begging Su Zhongqing to send troops with empty mouths and white teeth, he is naturally unwilling, but if you are willing to pay the price, as long as this price is big enough, then what else is Su Zhongqing unwilling? My lord, what is Su Zhongqing missing? Now he maintains such a strong army, and Taidang County has always been poor, there must be a shortage of money, as long as you are willing to pay a military fee, then Su Zhongqing will definitely send a part of the army over, by that time, Su Zhongqing will get the money, and help us extinguish the bandits, we will keep Merlot County, everyone has their own place, isn't it beautiful? ”

"How much silver does it take to exchange for Su Zhongqing to send troops?"

Thinking that he was going to spend a lot of money, You Junmin couldn't help but feel a little painful, but after thinking about it, he spent money now, as long as he kept Merlot County, there was a chance to earn it back, I hope Su Zhongqing's appetite is not too big.

"As for how much silver can satisfy the appetite of Su Zhongqing, the head of Taidang County, Liangchen really doesn't dare to say anything, it depends on how the county head and Su Zhongqing talk."

You Junmin turned around the hall more than a dozen times, but finally couldn't think of any other good way, so he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet and said fiercely:

"Okay, then the head of the county will personally go to Taidang County to talk to Su Zhongqing, no matter how much appetite he has, I will satisfy him, as long as he is willing to send troops."

You Junmin hurriedly packed up and hurried to Taidang County, while the rest of the Merlot County officials began to get busy, preparing for the city defense, the field army was gone, but the city still had to be defended, but as soon as everyone saw the thin and low city wall, the only reliance disappeared without a trace, and everyone pinned their hopes on the county head to bring back reinforcements on this trip.

Qi Liangchen, who had been busy all day, returned to his mansion, although he was so tired that his bones were about to fall apart, he was still full of energy, and came to his backyard alone, walked to a fine house, and knocked on the door gently.

"Come in," a female voice commanded.

Qi Liangchen pushed open the door and respectfully saluted the woman in the inner room, "Lord Red Demon, I have already done everything you ordered, and the head of You County has decided to ask Taidang County for help, and he has already set off today." ”

Chu Xuan smiled and said, "I already know, you have done a good job in this matter, sit down"

"Don't dare" Qi Liangchen excused himself: "In front of Lord Red Demon, how can I sit there." ”

Chu Xuan said with a smile: "Master Qi, you are very smart and wise, you know that the head of Meiluo County is already about to collapse, and you have no power to return to the sky, although you have joined the blood red demon queen and become my subordinate, but you don't have to be too formal, my subordinates kill people and set fires, steal chickens and dogs, but people like you who are knowledgeable, capable, and understand current affairs, and understand the overall situation are really rare, and there are still many places to rely on in the future."

Qi Liangchen couldn't help but be surprised and delighted, he was able to meet the Red Demon through the salt merchant Xue Kaiyi, and even if he guessed the truth of the whole thing, he was extremely wise and immediately chose to join the winning side and became a member of the Blood Red Demon Queen of Taidang County.

Listening to Chu Xuan's tone, he will inevitably gain a very important position in the Scarlet Demon Queen in the future, which can't help but make him overjoyed, he knows from Xue Kaiyi that the Scarlet Demon Queen Chu Xuan is basically covering the sky with one hand, except for Su Zhongqing, no one can reach into it, she said something, it is basically a certainty.

"My lord, my subordinates are a little unclear" sat sideways in front of Chu Xuan.

"Say," Chu Xuan said.

"My lord, since you say that Haikui County is extremely important to our Taidang County, why don't you just exchange the troops for Haikui County first? Wouldn't this be able to bring Haikui County under his command more quickly? ”

Chu Xuan said: "This is faster, I also believe that You Junmin will agree in a helpless situation, but this will be greatly detrimental to our future actions, what we want to get is the entire Meiluo County, not Haikui County, in fact, once Taidang County sends troops, Haikui County is already directly under our control, so why bother to make You Junmin realize in advance that we covet Meiluo County"

"Your Excellency is clever," Qi Liangchen complimented.

"Your next task is to constantly convince You Junmin to ask for reinforcements from our Taidang County, and at the same time convince him that we have no covetous intentions for Merlot County, but are only here for his silver, as long as he comes up with a large sum of silver, we will put out all the rebellions for him."

Chu Xuan said with a smile, but there was a chill in his smile.

This is both money and land, I am afraid that it may be fatal in the future, Qi Liangchen couldn't help but be glad for a while, fortunately he took the last bus, and couldn't help but feel some pity in his heart You County Shou who was rushing to Taidang County, if he knew that every time he took an extra step towards Taidang County, he would be one step closer to the Ghost Gate, I don't know what he would think?

Qi Liangchen said goodbye and left, and Mu Yunying, who had been standing silently on the side, finally couldn't help but remind:

"Miss, although this Qi Liangchen is talented, but he has no virtue, You Junmin treats him well, but he sold him clean in a blink of an eye, how can such a person be reused?"

Chu Xuan shook his head, closed his eyes and said:

"Yunying, you have been on the rivers and lakes for too long, and you understand the mystery there, if the water is clear, there are no fish, and if people are observant, there are no disciples, and it is better to be talented and virtuous, but how many such people can there be? Even if there were, would it be of any use to me? More people are like Qi Liangchen, as long as you control the Fa, I will use their talents. Don't worry too much. ”
