For Song Tianyuan, this intrigue was the most failed one in his life.

This is a game of the wise, or even a bloodless war.

But in the end, it still became a dead end, and when the picture was exhausted, the swords and soldiers faced each other.

And in the end, he still lost, which can be described as a complete defeat.

All the schemes are in the calculations of the other party, and there is no way to fight back.

Even if he finally felt that he was at the end of the road, he used the deepest hidden force to intercept and kill Zhuang Ming in order to turn the situation around, but he was still calculated by Zhuang Ming.

Song Tianyuan has always been conceited, but he fell into traps everywhere and couldn't help but feel bitter.

However, for Zhuang Ming, this is nothing more than a twist and turn in his mortal world, but he did not fall, and once again stepped over and was able to move forward.

"The winner has been decided, and I have lost. ”

Song Tianyuan said: "I can tell you, but you have to let me go first, so that I can be safe, and then I will leave a message for you." ”

Zhuang Ming looked calm and said, "You can't trust me, I can't trust you, Song Tianyuan, I said it, you don't have a choice." ”

Song Tianyuan fell silent.

Zhuang Ming said slowly: "You are not my opponent when you are alive, do you want to defeat me after your death?" Take a step back and say, even if my Zhuang family business bank collapses, you will not be able to see it after you die, and it will not be beneficial to you after death. ”

Song Tianyuan nodded and said: "Yes, no matter what plan I leave behind, no matter how much loss your Zhuang family firm suffers, after I die, I will not be able to benefit, let alone see." ”

Speaking of this, he smiled bitterly, laughed at himself slightly, and said, "As you said, I did leave a back hand, and even if I die, I will still continue." Although I didn't think that I would be here, I was even thinking about defeating you and then crushing you by subsequent means, rather than killing you at this time......"

Zhuang Ming said indifferently: "What means?"

Song Tianyuan was slightly silent, and seemed to have a trace of hesitation in his heart.

He hesitated.

He doesn't believe in Zhuang Ming.

But I have to believe it.

If you believe it, you still don't know whether you will live or die.

If you do not believe, you will surely die.

"Over the years, you have earned a lot of money and developed such a strong trading house, and you have offended many people. ”

Song Tianyuan said: "In the past two years, you have expanded your business and set foot in all walks of life, and this year not only involves the cloth merchant industry, but also the salt merchant industry. You spent a lot of money, obtained the qualification of a salt merchant, and in order to protect your own interests, you secretly helped the government and eliminated many people who sold smuggled salt......"

Zhuang Ming's expression was flat and slightly groaned.

For the past few years, the Dongsheng Dynasty was originally a salt and iron official camp, but since thirty years ago, when the first emperor was in power, the situation was turbulent, and many things have changed.

For now, salt merchants are also a stable business, with a lot of profits, but heavier taxes.

The smuggler of salt, who evades taxes and makes greater profits, has a greater impact on the price of a serious salt merchant like him, and has great damage to his interests.

It's just that he also knows that those who dare to sell a large amount of illicit salt in Dongsheng at present, because the benefits are too huge, there must be a big man behind it.

Therefore, he did not take the lead, but secretly helped the government, secretly spread the news, and used the hands of the government to defeat many gangs and commercial houses that sold illicit salt.

And during this period, he also ordered someone to close his tail, and no traces of Zhuang's firm were exposed.

"No matter how careful you plan, there will always be traces. ”

Song Tianyuan said: "It may be difficult for ordinary people to find out, but I, Song Tianyuan, went to investigate in person, and still found traces and obtained evidence." ”

Zhuang Ming groaned: "You handed over the evidence you got to the person behind it?"

Song Tianyuan said slowly: "The method of borrowing a knife to kill people is also my follow-up plan. ”

Speaking of this, Song Tianyuan said again: "You know that I am in the capital, working for the Seventh Prince, and I also have dealings with the king with a different surname, and now he knows your affairs and hates you to the core." Moreover, in a few days, he will be ordered by the emperor to come to Huai'an to take office, and he will become the most powerful person in the sixteen prefectures of Huai'an, ruling the general trend and covering the sky with one hand. ”

Zhuang Ming was silent.

Frost Spirit didn't quite understand.

It's just that Bai Lao's face changed and he was worried.

Those who are engaged in business have always had to deal with the government.

Over the years, Zhuang's firm has grown, and I don't know how many benefits it has given to the officials of the Sixteen Prefectures of Huai'an.

And if in the future, the most powerful person in the Sixteen Prefectures of Huai'an has already held a grudge against the Zhuang Firm, then the situation of the Zhuang Firm will be extremely dangerous.

In this way, even those officials who have benefited from Zhuang's firm in the past will probably have to attack Zhuang's firm under the instruction of this high-ranking official, and dare not disobey.

If it is at the level of the official family, if you want to attack the merchants, the world is so big, which commercial house can stop it?

Isn't this going to cut off the lifeline?

"What else?"

Zhuang Ming asked with a calm expression.

Song Tianyuan exhaled, with a strange look on his face, and said: "Your wisdom and scheming city mansion are far beyond my expectations, and those other plans can be solved by just turning a palm of your hand for you." Of course, if I can succeed this time, and the Zhuang family is defeated, then all the follow-up plans, after I personally perform, are all your talismans, which can completely defeat you, but unfortunately I have been defeated this time, and in the follow-up means, only this matter can threaten you. ”

Zhuang Ming said slowly: "You don't want to mention other plans, and let me wait for your attack? This means that at this moment, you still have something to hide?"

When Song Tianyuan heard this, his heart jumped, and he was about to continue to speak.

Zhuang Ming said again: "In this way, can I think that your words are not true?"

Song Tianyuan's pupils shrank, and a sense of crisis rose in his heart.

Poof!

Severe pain in the chest!

The tip of the blood-stained knife peeked through his chest.

"You ......" Song Tianyuan opened his mouth, the blood in his chest couldn't stop surging up, he looked at Zhuang Ming, his eyes were about to split.

"I said I'd consider sparing you. Zhuang Ming said calmly: "Now that I think about it, I won't spare you." ”

"Despicable ......" Song Tianyuan clenched his teeth and held back the blood gushing up from his throat.

"Taking a step back, even if I decide to spare you, it is not me who kills you now, but my subordinates will not spare you. Zhuang Ming leaned closer and said softly: "Also, I can start from scratch and become the richest man in the sixteen prefectures of Huai'an in six years, relying on honest management, but that is only limited to business." In the shadows where I can't see blood, I rely more on intrigue and intrigues, and on my ruthlessness, and on what you call despicable, but I am more ruthless than you think, and all the enemies who have seen me break my word are dead...... Now, add another Xuancheng Song Tianyuan. ”

"As expected...... Song Tianyuan only felt a chill on his body, but it was not as cold as in his heart, he laughed miserably, and said: "How can a person who can create such a huge force in the Sixteen Mansions of Huai'an in just six years be a soft-hearted person?"

"You don't have to look down on yourself, between life and death, the idea of survival, and the common feelings of people. Zhuang Ming said: "The straw that saves lives, even if it looks very fragile, but no one is willing to let go, this is the same for everyone......"

"What if...... One more time...... I ......" Song Tianyuan's voice was gradually getting lower and weaker, and he gasped: "I won't...... Careless...... Nor will it ...... Defeat!"

"I know. Zhuang Ming said: "I don't think I'm smarter than you, if you're also in a wheelchair, maybe your thinking is higher than mine." ”

"I did consider sparing you just now, but the level of consideration is not whether you are truthful, but your ability and heart. ”

"If you weren't so jealous, I would have looked down on you, and might have considered letting you go or subduing you. ”

"But your plan is too poisonous, your heart is too ruthless, I can't let you go, and as you said, I don't dare to let you go, because this is no less than letting the tiger go back to the mountain. ”

"I don't dare to subdue you, because it's no less than raising a tiger. ”

"So, you can go in peace. ”

As Zhuang Ming's voice fell.

The knife that pierced through Song Tianyuan's chest pushed forward one foot further.

Song Tianyuan screamed, but opened his mouth to laugh, his mouth was full of blood, hideous and terrifying.

"The power of the king, like the law of heavenly might, no matter how wise you are, you are a businessman after all, and you will not be able to survive this catastrophe. ”

"After you die, it's my business, don't bother. Zhuang Ming said flatly.

Zhuang Ming...... On Huangquan Road, I ...... Waiting for you to ......" Song Tianyuan's breathing gradually weakened.

"You can't wait for me. ”

Zhuang Ming's expression was as usual.

At this time, the blade in front of Song Tianyuan's body suddenly flipped over.

The blade is sideways to the left, and then cuts out.

Cut Song Tianyuan's heart in half!

This strategist, who is known for his deep wisdom, can't match a steel knife after all.

"Childe ......"

Liu Quan looked over, and pointed the blade at Song Tianyuan's subordinates, revealing an inquiring look.

Zhuang Ming stretched out his hand to remove Song Tianyuan's corpse, and looked at these characters who blocked the way to intercept him, with a cold expression.

"Mr. Thirteen spare his life!"

"I waited for the old and the young, but in order to support the family and earn some silver taels from the Song family, I worked for the tiger. ”

"I hope Mr. Thirteen will be gracious!"

One of them knelt down and wept bitterly.

When the others saw this, half of them immediately abandoned their swords and fell to the ground to beg for mercy.

Zhuang Ming laughed and said slowly, "What's the difference?"

He patted his shirt and said, "Whether you are loyal to Song Tianyuan or Yinliang, it makes no difference to me, after all, you came here to kill me, it's not fake." People always have to pay for their decisions, such as Song Tianyuan, who is already dead......"

After saying that, he reached out and waved it lightly.

Extinguish!
