Chapter 233: Zuo Huo's Scheme
It's night, 'Wind and Fire Gate'.
Huo Wuyang lay on the wide bed, pillowing the legs of a stunning young woman, listening to the female music in the room, and the young woman's two tender jade hands were placed on his shoulders and gently massaged.
"Use some strength, haven't you eaten?" Huo Wuyang was quite dissatisfied with the woman's methods.
"Yes. The woman's hands were strengthened.
"Well, that's pretty much it. Huo Wuyang approved, his eyes were foggy, and he gradually seemed to be about to fall asleep. The woman helped him press his shoulders and his fingers slid to Huo Wuyang's left and right 'temples' and rubbed them gently, she only rubbed them once, and suddenly her neck hurt and was pinched, and then she shook it hard, she couldn't help but slam her head on the wall, and suddenly hit a big star, she groaned in pain, fell to the ground along the wall, and couldn't get up for a while.
Huo Wuyang had already stood up, his eyes were extremely ruthless, and Nule was so frightened that she stopped and stepped aside. Huo Wuyang waited for the woman, and said in a dark voice: "Say, who sent you to assassinate me?"
The woman shrank into a ball of fright and trembled, and said tremblingly, "No...... No. ”
"Then what are you touching my 'temples' for?" Huo Wuyang's face was cold.
The woman shrank back and said, "Press ...... Massage the 'temples' and ...... May relieve headaches. ”
"Oh! Then you go on. Huo Wuyang's expression eased and he lay back on the bed. The woman struggled to get up against the wall, walked over and sat on the edge of the bed, picked up Huo Wuyang's head and put it on her lap, and gently pressed Huo Wuyang's 'temples' with both hands and rotated them gently.
"Well, that's good. Huo Wuyang praised comfortably, slowly closed his eyes, the female music started again, there were those who played and sang, and there were those who danced, even if Huo Wuyang closed his eyes, this dance was a must, and he must not stop.
Huo Wuyang was enjoying himself, when suddenly there were two cries of pain, and then the candle flame at the door moved, and a man in black was already standing at the door.
"Get out. "The man in black has a black face, and his mouth is not inferior.
Huo Wuyang didn't open his eyes, the woman was still massaging his 'temples', and the other female musicians were afraid of the people in black, but they still didn't dare to stop.
"Get out!" the man in black opened his mouth and said another word, but the female music still did not stop, but the song was no longer a tune, and the dance steps were out of order.
Huo Wuyang smiled proudly and said, "Okay, you all go down." ”
"Yes. All the women were blessed and turned to go out, but only the stunning young woman still didn't dare to move.
The man in black stepped into the door, glanced at the woman, and said coldly: "Gang Master Huo is still in the mood to enjoy women's music, it's really interesting." ”
Huo Wuyang opened his eyes and said, "I'm very interested in finding a group of women, wouldn't it be more interesting for the Zuo gang leader to come all the way to find a man?" It turned out that the man in black was Zuo Qizhi.
Zuo Qizhi ignored him and asked abruptly, "What are you going to do?"
Huo Wuyang said: "What else can I do? Calculating others has been calculated by others, we are still thinking too ruthlessly, we didn't put the 'Yang Dao Alliance' into it, but instead took our own army, we don't seem to be able to win back this game." ”
"Gang Master Huo doesn't want to explain two sentences?" Zuo Qi pointed to him.
Huo Wuyang said: "There is nothing to explain, there is no problem with the people I planted, the 'Yang Dao League' did not have much silver before, according to the original plan, the grain he could buy at a high price was not one-tenth of that of 'Zhongzhou', we have the support of the yamen, there are four million taels of silver in our hands, and we can make a lot of money by reselling it at half price in the later stage, and the price of the grain collected by the 'Yang Dao League' is much higher than that of us selling at the original price. ”
Zuo Qi pointed and said: "What is the source of 'Dayoumixing', have you found out clearly?"
Huo Wuyang said: "'Dayou Rice Travel' has long existed, but this is the first time that such a big deal has been made this year. ”
Zuo Qizhi asked again: "What does this rice shop have to do with the 'Yang Dao Alliance'?"
Huo Wuyang said: "It shouldn't matter, the two families raised the price of each other when they collected grain, and tens of thousands of taels of real money and silver went out, which is not easy for the 'Yang Dao Alliance' to afford." ”
Zuo Qi pointed and said, "You are closer to Li Lin, what instructions does he have next?"
Huo Wuyang said: "Your gang is the richest, and in terms of grain business, it is the largest in 'Zhongzhou', you ask others in turn?"
Zuo Qi pointed and said: "The 'Inner Governor's Mansion' and the Yamen promised beautifully, Li Lin, an idiot, started to drag things with mud and water, and the 'Yuanrong Gang' ran away, and the 'Bingjia Gang' also ran away, which is not as as the original Gao Kuo." If they don't have any instructions in the future, we should also plan some benefits for ourselves, and we can't give up one in vain if we don't care what our more than 2,000 people eat? Lao Tzu follows them to see the benefits and not to ask for hardship, and looking at the weather this year, the grain price next year will only be higher, not lower. ”
Huo Wuyang said: "The governor sent such a person, what can be done? But it's not that there are no instructions, Li Lin sent someone here during the day today." ”
"What did you say?" asked Left Seven Fingers.
"'Do a good job, the governor will not treat you badly, no matter what method you think, you must defeat the 'Yang Dao Alliance'', anyway, the 1.5 million taels of silver allocated by the governor have been given to us, and the rest of the silver is made by the grain merchants and has nothing to do with him, what else can he say. Huo Wuyang said.
Zuo Qizhi snorted and said, "These words are worth sending someone to make a special trip?"
Huo Wuyang said: "He thinks this sentence is very important, he thought that after following the governor to defeat the 'Yangdao Alliance' in one fell swoop, 'Zhongzhou' would be ours, who would have thought that it would be harmful so far, and he would have known what to do between them." ”
Zuo Qizhi snorted again: "Gang Master Huo's famous 'don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles' will also suffer, which is really rare." ”
Huo Wuyang said: "The 'Immortal Evil Venerable' is only such a record, what else is there to say? At present, we have no way to retreat, we can only follow the governor to the black, fortunately, in addition to my people, the 'Yang Dao Alliance' has more important chess pieces of the governor, and Shao Mingqian's defeat is a matter of time." ”
"Hmm. The left seven fingers looked slightly relieved.
Huo Wuyang said again: "The biggest benefit of this year was taken away by the 'Dayou Rice Bank', we can no longer control the price of grain, the 'Yang Dao Alliance' this time bet all the cash is the best opportunity, but it was pulled up by the 'Da You Rice Bank', it was saved, we can only find another opportunity to deal with the 'Yang Dao League', this trick has not worked this year." ”
Zuo Qi pointed and said: "I'm not Li Lin, I can see it." ”
Huo Wuyang said: "What does the left gang leader mean?"
Zuo Qi pointed and said: "The silver of dozens of grain merchant partners is in your hands and mine, does Gang Leader Huo want to return it as it is or give the profit?"
Huo Wuyang said: "I don't want to, if I return it, not only Li Linna can't explain, but if I want to partner next year, I'm afraid no one will believe it anymore, many of these people who take the silver are related to the yamen, and they are already seeking profits, if they know that they can make profits and then return them intact, I'm afraid it will inevitably give us some inconvenience in other things, and as for giving profits, then we are even more unwilling, we are still losing money, why give them money?"
Zuo Qi pointed and said, "So what is the plan of the Huo gang leader?"
Huo Wuyang said: "Call him 'Inner Governor's Mansion' and 'Yang Dao Alliance', we can earn some silver first, not to mention that if we can't invite credit, we must always invite some hard work, and if we can earn more than 100,000 taels of silver for the governor, it will be an explanation, otherwise Li Lin, that idiot, will let you and me take a break?"
Zuo Qi pointed and said, "Gang Master Huo coincides with me. ”
Huo Wuyang said: "The question is, now that the price of grain is already high, is there still room for a surplus if the price rises again?"
Zuo Qi pointed and said: "As long as the price increase does not exceed 30%, it is still profitable in the first half of next year, if the rain is sufficient in the second half of the year, we need to drop more than 80% before the autumn harvest, otherwise it is difficult to say." ”
Huo Wuyang said: "Then from tomorrow onwards, we will collect rice at the same price as the 'Yang Dao Alliance'." ”
Zuo Qi pointed and said: "Collecting rice at the same price, is the reputation of you and my gang better than the 'Yang Dao Alliance'?"
Huo Wuyang said: "It seems that our reputation is not as good as 'Dayou Rice Shop', so it is better for us to collect it in the name of other grain merchants." ”
Zuo Qi pointed and said: "The price is the key, and it doesn't hurt to raise it some, otherwise the 'Dayou Rice Row' will be collected for a few more days, and the 'Zhongzhou' is afraid that there will be no grain to sell, and then our silver can only be left in our hands." ”
Huo Wuyang said: "Okay, tomorrow we will raise the price by another two percent." ”
Zuo Qi pointed and said, "Farewell." ”
Huo Wuyang said: "Don't send it." With that, he slowly closed his eyes and enjoyed it again.
Zuo Qizhi glanced at it and said: "It's better for women to touch less, beware of being like a soldier's seal, because a woman has lost her life." ”
Huo Wuyang smiled disapprovingly and said, "Isn't Bingqi Seal alive and well?"
Zuo Qi pointed and said, "What's the difference between him and dead?" After saying that, he flicked his sleeves, went out of the house, and went to the room, and went far away in the blink of an eye.
After Zuo Qizhi left, Huo Wuyang's face became solemn, the fate of the 'Yuanrong Gang' and the 'Bingjia Gang' was vivid, and he couldn't help but be a little worried, especially the leader of the Bingqiyin Gang couldn't even protect his wife, and Wu Jingguo not only didn't make the decision for him, but also made people take away his gang.
"'Rabbit dead dog cooking' has been around since ancient times, but sadly, the rabbit of 'Yang Dao League' is not dead, and the dog of the veteran is cooked. Huo Wuyang said to himself, he knew that the ruthless left seven fingers also had this worry.
The tone of his words was a little gloomy, the woman seemed to be afraid, her fingers trembled slightly, Huo Wuyang smiled: "Did you hear what we said?"
"Listen...... Hear that, I ...... I'm not going to say it. ”
Huo Wuyang smiled grimly and said, "How can I trust you?"
The woman's face immediately turned pale, and her hands trembled uncontrollably......
