Volume 3 Jianghu Road, People's Hearts Are Dangerous Chapter 158 The Real Counterattack (Medium)
Liang Zhengrong's face suddenly sank: "What do you mean by this?" Are you kidding the official? ”
"Don't dare, I'm just telling the truth, and it's also to report the difficulties I am facing in Ruzhou to my lords." Xu Sifei didn't see any panic and replied with a smile.
"Hmph...... I don't need you to remind me of these things. ”
"What the adults said is that there is no need to remind the questions below, but what if there is a way to solve these problems?"
At this time, Lord Taishou's face finally changed a little: "Can you help me solve this urgent need in Ruzhou?" How much grain do you have? How much silver? ”
"Well, it depends on what you can do for the people of Ruzhou."
There is a door!
Hearing Liang Zhengrong say this, Xu Sifei knew that he had grasped the other party's key point, once the other party was worried about the lack of food and silver.
Sure enough, I heard him hurriedly ask, "What do you say about this?" ”
"I don't dare to hide it from my lord, I can raise food and silver, but the things are not mine, but from merchants from all walks of life.
"But rest assured, they are willing to hand over the grain to the government free of charge, so that they can help the people and distribute food to the soldiers. It's just that...... They also have their demands, and I ask for your permission. ”
"What do they want?"
"It's just some of the decrees that Bian Taishou made with us when he was there. For example, Fengshui Pass continued to control the grain ships coming from the north, and for example, the official road in the south also increased troops and horses to prevent someone from transporting grain over without permission......
"Of course, these things are not in a hurry, as long as the adults nod their heads now and handle them accordingly, then we can guarantee that within ten days, food and silver will be delivered one after another, and we will never break our promise!"
Liang Zhengrong's face became a little gloomy, and his gaze was even more locked on the other party's face: "You want to take the opportunity to blackmail this official and set up many barriers for you to monopolize the management rights of Huguang grain?" ”
Xu Sifei was silent, but he acquiesced.
"You guys really have such a big appetite and so much courage!" Liang Zhengrong was finally angry, and suddenly slapped the table and scolded, "Do you think this will make this official comply?" ”
"Don't dare, I'm just talking to adults about a deal. And in this way, in fact, there is no harm to you, to the military and civilians in Ruzhou.
"There will be no shortage of local food, there will be no change in food prices, everyone can still live as usual, and adults will be supported by the people, so why not?"
"And what if I don't say yes?"
"Then I can only express my deep regret, I'm afraid that the next days in Ruzhou will not be too easy. Food shortages will become a reality......"
"You think this can threaten the official? You have food in your hands, and the official will be requisitioned from you first! ”
"Think twice, sir. First, I have no food in my hands, and I have hidden it outside. Second, it's not a few years ago, the world is in chaos, and there are some things that you should not do and don't take risks.
"Otherwise, I really don't want to see Ruzhou, which has just undergone a big change, fall into the military disaster again, and by then, there will be more deaths."
Liang Zhengrong fell silent, staring at him with a little rapid breathing, and his eyes were almost on fire.
In the face of Lord Taishou's anger, Xu Sifei was not moved at all, and did not make the slightest avoidance, so he used his eyes to fight against him: "My lord, the times have changed!"
"Some things are not as simple as you think, and once you make the wrong choice, the consequences are not something you can bear. You don't want to watch the lives of Ruzhou be devastated, with countless deaths and injuries, right? ”
"Hahahaha......"
His threatening words were exchanged for a burst of laughter from Liang Zhengrong.
And with the laughter, the expression on the face of Lord Taishou also changed, and his eyes turned from anger to contempt: "Do you really think that you can cover the sky with one hand and play with everyone in the world?"
"Do you think that just by saying such words, you can make this official throw himself into a trap, so that he will join you in the same stream, do things that will bring disaster to the country and the people, and let you benefit from it?"
The few words that suddenly erupted shocked Xu Sifei, who was still full of confidence, and his face finally changed: "You...... How do you know? ”
How did he know about the existence of the Society? And listening to the meaning of his words, it seems that he has even grasped the real purpose behind himself!
"Do you really think that your little conspiracy and calculation can hide from the rest of the world? Not only do I know about this incident, but also many hot-blooded men in my Ruzhou City! ”
Liang Taishou said, and suddenly slapped his hands twice.
With the sound of two snaps, there was a sudden squeak next to it, and then there was a chaotic footstep, and under Xu Sifei's stunned gaze, he saw dozens of tall and brightly armored generals who had arrived in front of the hall door.
Everyone stared at him with hostile eyes, and there was a killing intent to break him to pieces on the spot, and the killing intent was so overwhelming that he was about to lose his breath.
How could it be......
After Xu Sifei was stunned for a moment, he suddenly understood that these people had been hiding in the main hall on the side early in the morning, and through some means, they actually heard the conversation between themselves and Liang Zhengrong clearly.
Not only is he threatening the newly appointed Taishou, but he is threatening all of them!
At this moment, he figured out a little more, this is completely the bureau specially arranged by Liang Zhengrong, he came over yesterday and was not allowed to meet, not that Lord Taishou was too busy to spare time, but to make arrangements for today!
But immediately, an even more unsettling thought also came to him, Liang Taishou arranged it like this, which meant that he had actually guessed his intention early on, and knew that he would threaten with food or something.
Not only that, but he even knew that he was a member of the Zongheng Society!
Why?
How could he, like an unpredictable prophet, have so much inside information?
Didn't he be kicked out of the yamen a year or two ago and placed under house arrest?
How did he manage to keep it so secret?
"Soldiers, now you know that what I said is true, there have always been people in Ruzhou who want to control everything and kill innocents, right?" A voice rang out from the crowd outside the hall, "You say, what should we do if you are a troublesome place like this, and you are trying to use us as pawns and puppets?" ”
"Kill them all!"
"Raided their homes and ripped up their ancestral graves!"
The thoughts of the warriors are always the most simple and direct, and after confirming that all this is true, under the anger, they no longer have any worries, and only want to use the most drastic means to retaliate against each other!
Sun Ning smiled with satisfaction: "Then don't take him down for me!" ”
