Ming Yi waited quietly to watch Xia Huanfeng's performance.

He was not in a hurry or impatient, and he looked worried: "Yes, there is a foundation in Chang'an, and there is such a prosperous foundation in the state." The Peach Seven Gang can be said to be facing a big chess game, and there is no shortage of chess pieces in their hands, but it is a pity that there is one less good chess player who can look at the overall situation and win thousands of miles. It's a pity to see that it is out of control in Chang'an and messed up in Yizhou. ”

Shi Ruoshan also sighed, but he didn't know what he was referring to: "This should be a lesson for us to expand the gang, and we must not let the situation exceed our control." ”

Xia Huanfeng held the wine glass in his hand, his eyes were attentive: "The current situation of the Peach Seven Gang is our best opportunity. ”

Mingyi cooperated in a timely manner and made a puzzled statement: "What do you say? Do you want to take the territory of the Peach Seven Gang in Chang'an? It's not feasible, the Tianyi Gang and the Shentu brothers are eyeing each other. ”

Xia Huanfeng said with a smile: "If we take it by force, we will definitely be counterattacked by the Peach Seven Gang, and there will be interference from the two gangs, and we will most likely not even be able to protect our own backyard." But if we outwit it, we can share the territory they captured in Chang'an with the Peach Seven Gang without spending a single soldier. ”

"How? Phantom maple, you just say it. Shi Ruoshan's interest increased greatly.

"Now the Peach Seven Gang sisters are busy solving the troubles on both sides of Chang'an and Yizhou, and they are anxious. Originally, the problem could be solved by expelling a few hall masters and their subordinates who were causing trouble everywhere in Chang'an. But Tao Sanniang was reluctant at all. If they are expelled, the foundation laid in Chang'an will be lost. Especially in Xishi and the surrounding areas, the Taoqi Gang has gained a lot of benefits, and they are willing to give up this piece of fat. If she hadn't been expelled, the ruffians wouldn't have told her rules, and in fact, they wouldn't have really obeyed a woman at all. Xia Huanfeng talked eloquently.

Shi Ruoshan nodded as he listened, but still didn't know what he meant: "It sounds like there is no solution to the two things of keeping the territory and getting rid of the trouble." ”

"There is a solution, but only in our hands." Xia Huanfeng raised the corners of his mouth, "Because we are the ones who tie the bell." ”

At this time, not only Shi Ruoshan, but even Ming Yi were at a loss.

Xia Huanfeng explained carefully: "In fact, since they came to Chang'an and wanted to get involved in the West Market, I began to arrange the current situation. The West Market is different from the East Market, the flow of people is complex, the background is different, thanks to the giant thunder operating here for many years, a wide range of good fate, in fact, Rongyifang has become the core of the West Market, any disputes and contradictions, by the owner of the fair presiding. Since I took the Xu's Silk Workshop and moved the Rongyi Workshop to the center of the West Market, it has been rumored that I have hands and eyes and a strong background. Merchants gradually began to voluntarily hand over some silver money to Rong Yifang to settle the officials, so the West Market became the freest market. Especially for merchants who trade underground, if they want to open a business, they must pay peace money to Rongyifang every month, which is an unwritten rule, but only every shopkeeper knows about it. ”

When Ming Yi heard the three words of giant thunder, he deliberately glanced at Shi Ruoshan, and when he saw that his gaze was stagnant, he quickly returned to calm.

Shi Ruoshan responded: "I see, even I don't know these things. Whether it is Thunder or Phantom Feng, I have absolute trust in you, and you have indeed lived up to expectations. ”

Xia Huanfeng ignored this stubble and continued: "The subordinates of the Peach Seven Gang began to get involved in the West Market, and I received the news from the shopkeepers. At that time, I knew that if they continued to mess around like this, they would definitely get into trouble, and these indiscriminate blackmail practices must not be instructed by Tao Sanniang. From time to time, the upper echelons of the gang represented by Tao Sanniang will have insoluble conflicts with the new members of the gang, which is what I want to see. So I stopped accepting peace money from merchants, and told them not to force themselves with the people of the Peach Seven Gang, and just give it if they make trouble. ”

Shi Ruoshan praised: "Mingyi is really far-sighted. ”

"A month ago, I bribed a new deputy hall master of the Peach Seven Gang to be my spy, asked him to inquire about the news for me, and asked him to incite the gang to escalate the blackmail and harassment of the merchants. The reputation of the Peach Seven Gang plummeted suddenly, the resistance of the merchants also escalated, and there was a lot of fist and foot friction, and if this continued, the government had to intervene. And the Peach Seven Gang is so noisy, the two gangs are afraid that she will completely subdue the West Market, and they will not stand idly by. Xia Huanfeng said.

Mingyi remembered that Hong Yi was kidnapped, it turned out that Xia Huanfeng had such a far-reaching plan to buy that Hu Shu, this person's mind was really unfathomable.

Shi Ruoshan asked, "Then how will this situation end now?" Will the Tianyi Gang or the Shentu Family attack the Peach Seven Gang? ”

Xia Huanfeng shook his head: "Ming Yi only went to the Shentu family a while ago, and he told me when he came back. The two brothers have developed too fast in the past two years, and I heard that their pomp and power are already on par with the Tianyi Gang. These two gangs are currently evenly matched, and no one dares to be distracted to treat the Peach Seven Gang, and no one will watch the other party swallow the Peach Seven Gang, so that Tao Sanniang can survive in the cracks. ”

Shi Ruoshan thought deeply: "Then what can we do?" With the strength of the above official gangs, even if the vitality of the Peach Seven Gang is greatly damaged now, we will not be able to reap any benefits. ”

Xia Huanfeng said slowly: "My spy said that a few days ago, Tao Sanniang went to the branch altar of the Tianyi Gang outside the city to have an interview with Gong Junhao. ”

"Is she going to cooperate with the Tianyi Gang?" Shi Ruoshan asked.

"The Peach Seven Gang was unstable at the beginning, so she went to the Tianyi Gang, and the spies said that she was furious when she came back, and she was in an extremely bad mood." Xia Huanfeng glanced at Ming Yi.

Ming Yi pretended to be surprised: "Ah, is that before I set off for Yangzhou?" As soon as I set off, I heard on the road that Ye had rejected Tao Sanniang's overtures. ”

"It's a well-known secret that she loves Ye, and Ye has always been grateful for it. This time, she seemed to have made up her mind, starting with Gong Junhao, and was bound to force Ye to marry her. Xia Huanfeng took a sip of wine and slowed down, "I also went to see Gong Junhao for this matter, he is very much in favor of the marriage, and he is willing to do his best to promote it." It's just that at the moment the leaves have not loosened their mouths. ”

Ming Yi suddenly realized: "I once met Tao Sanniang in the Shentu family, and I suspected that she was going to fight Shentu Yi's idea. But Brother Shentu didn't mean this at all, and it seemed that it was also because he refused to accept the woman who had been rejected by Ye. ”

Shi Ruoshan also took a sip of wine: "Since Gong Junhao has the intention to promote it, I'm afraid this marriage will be sooner or later." In this way, the Tianyi Gang is like a tiger with wings. ”

Xia Huanfeng smiled: "Not necessarily, there are still variables in things." I'm sure that this marriage will be ruined, and the Shangguan gang will be the biggest winner in this incident. It's just that I'm going to grieve the stone gang leader. ”

Shi Ruoshan's face changed: "You mean, let the Shangguan Gang and the Peach Seven Gang marry?" ”

"Yes, the Shi Gang Master and Tao Sanniang are married." Xia Huanfeng cut the railway. 2k reading web
