Chapter 961: A Reliable Ally
The northwest is Su Qin's base camp, and now it has basically been pocketed by Su Qin, if there is no big rear in the northwest, once he loses, he will have no chance of turning the tables, he can only go overseas like his grandfather, and there is no possibility of coming back.
Overseas is the retreat left by his grandfather, and the northwest is the retreat he left for himself, as long as the northwest is in his hands, even if the worst possibility appears, he can continue to play with the Su family.
Ningzhou and Longzhou have been eaten by him one after another, according to his strategy, that is, to bind the entire Ningzhou and Longzhou interest groups, even if anyone wants to overthrow him, there is no possibility of victory, unless all forces in Longzhou and Ningzhou are wiped out.
Qingzhou and Xinzhou are also such strategies, not to mention that these two states are still the sphere of influence of the Su family in the northwest, as long as they are won, they will be more stable.
Xinzhou Su Qin is not worried, this is the base camp of the Su family in the northwest, plus Yu Liang is in charge, there will be no problems.
It's just that Liu Yuanzheng on the Qingzhou side can't be fully trusted by Su Qin, especially the last time Tuoba and Qiuyu reported that he had been in contact with other forces, and it might also involve the Helan Mountain turmoil, then Su Qin must keep an eye on it, in case Liu Yuanzheng turns against the water one day.
Liu Yuanzheng was originally collected and paid by Su Qin after both soft and hard, and he was also forced to do so, if it wasn't for the situation, it was estimated that it would be difficult to admit it, so there must be resentment in his heart.
Once there is something going on his side, the others will definitely not be good, but Liu Yuanzheng will definitely have two hearts on his side.
The most important thing is that it is still uncertain which side of the power that the middle-aged man Liu Yuanzheng came into contact with belongs to, and in the recent report of Tuoba and Qiu Yu, it was also mentioned that this middle-aged man appeared again in Qingzhou, and Su Qin was even more curious.
So when he arrived in Qingzhou, Su Qin would definitely have to test it, but he was not in a hurry now.
After returning to the hotel from the airport, after a simple wash and rest, Su Qin followed Yu Liang to a well-known local time-honored restaurant, where beef and mutton are eaten more in the northwest region, and the same is true here in Xinzhou.
Yu Liang knew that Su Qin had a lot of research on food, and he especially liked to eat local specialties, no matter where he went, so he brought Su Qin here.
The environment of the restaurant is average, but the reputation is absolutely no problem, the hand-grabbed mutton rice and a large plate of chicken make Su Qin feel that it is the best he has ever eaten, Su Qin didn't say anything during the meal, just lowered his head and ate in a sullen voice, the chopsticks didn't stop, everyone was used to Su Qin's eating, just smiled and watched Su Qin eat.
After eating and drinking, Su Qin chatted with Yu Liang, except for Chen Qiming's black rose hemp money brought by Su Qin, Yu Qiyin, the rest was Yu Liang and several of his henchmen, although there were more orders, but they would definitely not be wasted.
Su Qin was the first to ask, "Lao Yu, what do you think of the Northwest Su family during your time of contact with the Northwest Su family?"
Yu Liang said thoughtfully: "When I was in Longzhou before, I only had contact with Su Qilin, but after I arrived in Xinzhou this time, I had more contact with the Su family in the northwest, and I also visited the head of the Su family in the northwest, they gave me the impression that they were very pragmatic, and they could be contacted at any time for anything, and the efficiency of our cooperation was also very high, so I was able to make such rapid progress in Xinzhou."
Su Qin continued to ask, "Did the Northwest Su family interfere too much with your side?"
Yu Liang was silent and said: "Most of the time it won't, at most it will be discussed with me, if we can't make up our minds on both sides, they will ask me to report to you, the Northwest Su family is mainly responsible for winning over the relationship resources side, and at the same time resisting the pressure from the Li family's side, I am responsible for the main action."
Su Qin said with interest: "Then the Su family in the northwest is not bad, what I'm afraid of is that they interfere too much, so you can't use it, or they have selfish intentions to expand their influence, now it seems that I think too much."
Judging from the current series of cooperation, the Northwest Su family has made Su Qin very satisfied in all aspects, which Su Qin didn't expect at all, it seems that he really underestimated the Northwest Su family.
He hadn't been in contact with the Northwest Su family before, and it was only Fang Jinglong who introduced him to the Northwest Su family, and now it seems that the pattern of the Northwest Su family is bigger than he thought, no wonder they had the courage to bet on themselves and take the initiative to cooperate with themselves.
Because the Su family in the northwest has now reached a bottleneck, their influence is only limited to the northwest, if they sit in a corner of the emperor, it is enough to keep the achievements, but their ambition is not only limited to this, but based on the northwest and looking at the whole country.
Then entering the Su Elder Council is the quickest way, and now that Su Qin needs allies, they can just cooperate with Su Qin, so why not gamble?
If you lose the bet, you will be restricted to death, and at worst, you will be suppressed by the Su family, but it will definitely not be scattered, after all, their base camp is in the northwest, which is a place where all parties are relatively weak, mainly because of the deviation of the economic environment, and most families can't look down on it.
But if they win, then the children and grandchildren of the Su family in the northwest will go out of the northwest, and they may go to the southeast coast, enter the east of Shangjing, Haipeng City, etc., this is what they want the most.
Therefore, from the very beginning, the Su family in the northwest reciprocated with the greatest sincerity, because when they chose to cooperate with Su Qin, they had no second thoughts, and they did not leave a way out for themselves at all, they would do whatever Su Qin said, as long as they achieved Su Qin's goal.
They firmly believed that Su Qin would not break his promise, and after successfully inheriting the position of the head of the Su family, he would definitely agree to let the Northwest Su family enter the Council of Elders.
Next, Yu Liang said something about the Northwest Su family in detail, of course, he didn't deliberately tout the Northwest Su family, but the Northwest Su family did it.
After listening to Yu Liang's narration, Su Qin knew what kind of attitude he should take when he went to Su's house in the northwest tomorrow.
With such a reliable ally as the Northwest Su family, even if the Su family is in civil strife in the future, the Northwest Su family will definitely not betray him.
After chatting about these things, everyone went back to the hotel after eating and drinking, and after Su Qin returned to the hotel, he asked Yu Liang to inform the Northwest Su family that he temporarily chose to come to Wushi and prepare to visit the Northwest Su family tomorrow.
When the Northwest Su family received this call from Yu Liang, the people of the Northwest Su family were very shocked, they didn't expect Su Qin to take the initiative to come to Wushi, and they were going to visit the Northwest Su family tomorrow, which was an honor that the Northwest Su family had not had in the past hundred years.
In the past hundred years, after several generations of hard work, the Su family in the northwest has finally gained a firm foothold in the northwest and has become a big family that is enough to influence the pattern of the northwest, but it can't enter the eyes of other collateral lines of the Su family at all, let alone the recognition of these collateral lines of the Su family elders' association, not to mention that the Su family elders have never been to the Su family in the northwest.
But Su Qin, the current eldest young master of the Su family and the future head of the Su family, suddenly came to Wushi, and even more wanted to visit the Su family in the northwest in person, how could everyone in the Su family in the northwest not be excited?
So the head of the Su family in the northwest immediately informed all the members of the Su family in Wushi that they must all go back to his villa tomorrow to greet the eldest young master of the Su family, which shows how much importance the Su family in the northwest attaches importance to and how full of sincerity.
So when Su Qin went to the Su family in the northwest the next day, in the villa of the old man of the Su family in the northwest, nearly a hundred members had gathered, and this meeting was really lively.
