Chapter 40 Yuan Shao was helpless
After Li Hui bargained, Yuan Shao promised that as long as Kong Rong gave him a million loads of grain and grass, he would immediately withdraw his troops and leave, Li Hui looked at Xu You very meaningfully.
Kong Rong was very happy to learn that Li Hui had gone and returned. Meet you at the gates of the city in person. Seeing Li Hui smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid I'm going to bother General Li again this time, I, the jackal of the North Sea, just left, the tiger arrived, I really want to resign and go into hiding, how can I help the people of a city, so I don't know where to go!" ”
Li Hui shook his head: "Kong Taishou's Beihai, located in the key Chong, surrounded by princes, everyone is eyeing each other, this time I went to Yuan Shao's place first, and then came over, to tell you the truth, Yuan Shao wants a million loads of grain and grass, otherwise he will definitely conquer Beihai!" ”
"What? A million quintals? Kong Rong was shocked: "I have so much grain and grass there, and the people who have helped the victims and served have used some of it, and I can take out 800,000 taels for the days to come!" ”
"That's a bit tricky!" Li Hui scratched his head: "If Kong Taishou really can't take it, I only have the latter's cheek to talk to Yuan Shao again, to see if he can be lenient, if he still refuses, he can only fight hard!" ”
Kong Rong is very grateful. After Li Hui finished talking to Kong Rong at the city gate, he turned back again. As soon as he saw Yuan Shao, he directly picked up the water bowl in front of Yuan Shao, and took a sip of it himself: "Father-in-law, my son-in-law has done my best, Kong Rong can only take out 800,000 quintals now, if my father-in-law can be lenient, I will say again, if it doesn't work, I can only fight!" ”
Xu You sneered: "I'm afraid you want to swallow 200,000 quintals!" Who doesn't know that General Li has always been the master of plucking the feathers of geese? ”
Li Hui glared at Xu You. glanced at Wen Chou. Wen Chou smiled, grabbed Xu You and said: "You dare to insult my father-in-law, take a walk, I see that you want to be paraded on the street again!" ”
Xu You screamed in fright, shouting for Yuan Shao to save him. Yuan Shao didn't even pay attention to it, and said to Li Hui: "It's okay! For the sake of General Li's face, 800,000 quintals are 800,000 quintals, and the remaining 200,000 quintals should be a gift for Kong Rong! ”
Tian Feng and Fu Zhi both nodded. Seeing Li Hui away, Yuan Shao wanted to cry without tears: "You all tell me, I'm helpless to do this Jizhou assassin history?" What are you doing, you have to look at the face of a little General Zuo, Li Hui, I swear that one day I will break your body into ten thousand pieces! ”
Riding on a horse, Li Hui's ears burned uncomfortably. Keep touching with your hands. Zhao Yun asked, "Second brother, what's wrong with you?" ”
"I feel like someone is scolding me!" Li Hui touched his ears again. Zhao Yun Yile: "What you did just now, look at that Xu You, if I were him, it would be strange if I didn't scold your brother for the eighteenth generation!" ”
"It's not him!" Li Hui shook his head: "He scolded me, I don't mind!" ”
"And who else?" Zhao Yun asked.
Wen Chou smiled: "Yuan Shaobei! Yuan Shao was humiliated again and again by the lord, not to mention scolding, the heart to kill the lord has already been there! ”
According to the time and place agreed between Yuan Shao and Kong Rong, Kong Rong delivered the grain and grass to Yuan Shao. Li Hui, as an intermediary, was talking to Yuan Shao Kongrong. Yuan Shao's grain supervisor suddenly ran over and muttered in Yuan Shao's ear for a while. Kong Rong's heart sank: It's over, Yuan Shao can see it, Beihai is not guaranteed now!
Kong Rong looked at Li Hui, and Li Hui looked at him with a smile. The more Yuan Shao listened, the more ugly his face became. After listening to the report of the grain governor, he pointed at Kong Rong: "Kong Taishou, you pretend to be a gentleman, and you obviously promised to give me 800,000 quintals of grain and grass, why is there only 500,000 quintals left?" ”
Kong Rong was about to answer. Li Hui stopped him and said, "Father-in-law, don't be angry, Kong Taishou gave 800,000 quintals, and after deducting my labor fees, there are only 500,000 quintals left." ”
"What? What labor costs! Yuan Shao glared at Li Hui.
Li Hui said with a smile: "I'll be a middleman for you, I've been running back and forth so many times, you can't let me run in vain, otherwise I won't do it!" Think about it, if it's no good, why am I running so? ”
"But, there's not so much to it!" Yuan Shao was completely speechless. Li Hui's labor fee will be a small half, and 500,000 yuan will be able to attack Gongsun Zhan.
Li Hui said with a smile: "I am greedy, when the tiger prison was closed, my third brother and I both asked for 50,000 quintals, and now such a big formation, there are no 500,000 quintals, I don't want to do it, and now I have only taken 300,000 quintals, I still feel a little lost!" ”
Yuan Shao really wanted to be ruthless, and led his troops to fight Beihai. But last night, he, Tian Feng, Fu Zhu and others had already calculated that if Li Hui was no longer there, he would be able to take Beihai if he lost about 20,000 troops, and now there was one more Li Hui, and without more than 50,000 troops, he would not want to take Beihai. The battle with Gongsun Chan is imminent, and the soldiers must not lose one more.
Yuan Shaoqi's hands and feet trembled, he looked at Li Hui for a long time, turned to Kong Rong and said, "You wait for me!" Walk! ”
Yuan Shao took people away. Li Hui shouted loudly behind him: "Son-in-law sends off father-in-law!" ”
As soon as Yuan Shao left, a stone fell to the ground in Kong Rong's heart. said to Li Hui: "This time thanks to General Li, this Beihai Taishou, I can't do it anymore, if I don't dislike it, I am willing to give up the post of Beihai Taishou to the general!" ”
Li Hui waved his hand again and again: "Don't!" Although Beihai is good, it is a place of four stations, my nest is far away in Changshan, I can't take care of it, I don't want it, in my opinion, Kong Taishou don't want it, all the money and grain in the treasury will be distributed to the people, and Beihai will be disbanded, so as not to worry all day long! ”
Kong Rong shook his head: "This Beihai is granted by the imperial court, how can it be easily disbanded, absolutely not!" ”
Li Hui smiled: "Since Kong Taishou is unwilling, I am not reluctant, in a word, let's do it myself!" ”
Li Hui jumped on his horse and walked away. Kong Rong looked at Li Hui's back, and didn't know what to do in his heart. Wu Anguo said: "My lord, General Li's words also make some sense, in Beihai today, who can't resist it, and the imperial court has already existed in name only, why should you bear such a mess?" ”
Kong Rong said: "I heard that Li Hui said to Huangfu Song back then, one person in this world is for fame and one for profit, you and I are among them, how can you be as free and easy as him!" ”
Li Hui left Beihai. Wen Chou said: "Lord, can you go to Xuzhou now?" ”
Zhao Yun smiled: "You want to kill again?" It's only been a few days, why do you keep thinking about killing, is it interesting to kill people? ”
Wen Chou smiled: "There is no trace of killing, I like the process of killing people the most, the big knife is opened, the blade looks at the person, the kind of sticky, the smooth feeling when the flesh comes out." ”
Zhao Yun asked Li Hui again: "Second brother, do you like to kill people?" ”
Li Hui has not yet answered. A rough voice laughed and said, "He definitely doesn't like to kill, he likes to be killed!" ”
The three of them turned their heads to look, and five big men blocked their way, the first one, with a full beard, not tall, and slightly fat, was smiling at Li Hui and the others.
