This kid...... A face seems to be gentle and kind, but the speech is too choking!

Since the potter entered the main hall, Diao Chan's beautiful eyes never seemed to leave his body.

Through the matter of the right talent, coupled with seeing him at this moment, Diao Chan can be more sure of one thing in his heart.

For the rest of his life, only to be a gentleman.

I saw Diao Chan slapping at Wang Yun and Pingzheng respectively, and held back a smile: "Father-in-law, what did Tao Gongzi say...... It does seem like a problem. ”

Wang Yun's face turned red and white, thinking that he and this kid could finally work together to play a rival show, and unite him to frustrate the prestige of these noble clans.

Who would have thought that this bastard thing would ruin himself again.

Even if the potter was helping him...... But Wang Yun felt that he was so helped, why was he so heartwarming?

Yu Guang saw Diao Chan standing beside the potter, his cheeks slightly blushing, and Wang Yun was even more angry.

It's really a big girl, stinky girl, I would have known that you would marry Ping's grandson! …… Save yourself two little ones from being angry at this old man!

However, he was angry and let Wang Yunping be a generation of peace, but the old man could never agree.

Since he met the potter, Wang Yun felt as if everything was out of his control, as an important minister of the Han Dynasty, he had been controlling the rhythm of others for many years, but since he knew this bastard, every time he spoke and did something, this young descendant could firmly lead his nose, so that Wang Yun was powerless to refute and could not punish him.

This bastard boy, isn't it sent down by God to specialize in conditioning the old man?

Seeing that the pottery merchant came out to completely stir up the matter, Huangfu Song, Wang Kuang and others came out to be peacemakers in order to save the face of the noble clans.

Huangfu Song patted Wang Yun's shoulder with a smile and said with a smile: "Zishi, today, it's not the right time to discuss this, besides, today is Gong Li's birthday, what are you doing talking about your own trivial matters?" Aren't we here to drink Li Gongshou wine? ”

Wang Yun gave the potter a fierce look.

is also a foil person, you look at the emperor Fu Yi really can talk...... Turning back allows you to reflect and reflect.

The potter pretended not to see Wang Yun's eyes, but turned his head towards Huangfu Song, only to see Huangfu Song smile and wink at him.

Wang Yun came back to his senses and said through the steps: "The words of righteousness are very true, the old man is old, and he can't distinguish between the main and the secondary, and he has been the guest of honor for a long time in vain, Pinggong, everyone, let's have a chance to talk about it in the future, how about it?" ”

Speaking of which, Pingzheng's idea of wanting to cling to the Taiyuan Wang clan was completely blown up.

Everyone returned to their seats with their own thoughts, and they were a little cold for a while.

The potter didn't care, he was also guided by the waiter to his seat.

As soon as Fang sat down, the potter found that the person opposite him was looking at him with a resentful gaze, and there were a lot of feelings in it......

The potter laughed at himself, turned his head to look at Diao Chan, who happened to be sitting on his right seat, and said in a low voice: "Seeing the old man's eyes panic? Now you know what it means to be in trouble, right? ”

When Diao Chan heard this, he pursed his lips dissatisfiedly and whispered, "I really don't like it...... I'm not a scourge. ”

The potter shook his head and explained, "Of course you're not, I'm talking about myself...... Alas, everywhere you go, you are excellent and jealous, isn't it a curse? I can't even beat myself to death. ”

Diao Chan: "............"

The potter actually didn't deliberately provoke Pingzheng, he knew that Wang Yun was a person in the gate, and Pingzheng was a capable person from a local family, the status of these two old men was not low, when they met, it was not a big deal to talk about a policy marriage for the children for the benefit of the family, but Pingzheng had no skin and no face and was sticky all the time, and on this point, the potter was not used to it.

For things that are not used to seeing, when it is time to stir up, it should be properly stirred, so that it can not only play a catalytic role in the development of ancient human society, but also make yourself physically and mentally happy, why not?

On the eve of the banquet, although there was some small unhappiness, under the persuasion of Huangfu Song, Wang Kuang and others, everyone still cared about holding on to their faces.

After all, this Pan family is only a temporary idea, and the focus of the Wang family today is not here.

After everyone sat down, they saw Li Shao raise his hand and clapped his hands lightly, and more than 20 maids dressed in various colors flowed endlessly, sending the dishes that had already been prepared.

Seeing that these maids who delivered food were all beautiful and out of the ordinary, but they could only play the role of waiters in the mansions of these scholars, the potter couldn't help but sigh secretly.

The decadent and degenerate feudal life has been fully cashed out from these noble families!

It's really nourishing to live.

Li Shao raised the wine cup and smiled at the guests in the hall: "The old man's 60th birthday today, he has to be visited by all the sages, and he is overjoyed. ”

Everyone raised the wine cup in their hands, gestured to each other, and then covered their faces with their sleeves and drank it all.

When Li Shao put down the wine cup, Yu Guang saw Ping Zheng giving him a look.

Li Shao understood in his heart, ordered someone to pour wine, and then raised it, and gestured to Bao Xin from afar: "General Bao, this wine is the old man's reparation to you." ”

Bao Xin was taken aback and looked at Li Shao in astonishment.

With Bao Xin's political literacy, although he also guessed that the Hanoi Wang clan was using Li Shao's birthday to discuss Bai Bojun today, he never expected that the head of the wild king Li clan would bow his head to him so directly.

You must know that Li Shao served as the assassin of Jizhou in the past, and his former official authority and pomp are only a few points stronger than the current Bao Xin.

Stretching out his hand and not hitting the smiling person, Bao Xin can pretend to be an egg again, but at this moment, he is pushing again and again but avoiding it.

The potter squinted at Li Shao, who was pretentious, and was amused.

When he and the others first arrived in Hanoi, these people pretended to be unstoppable...... Now that their respective family businesses are in trouble, they are low-brow and obedient, pure snobs......

Such a person is either a great traitor or a great evil in the hearts of the potters, and he is resolutely not worthy of sympathy.

Bao Xin raised the wine cup: "Gong Li's birthday today, speaking like this really makes Bao embarrassed, and he is ashamed!" Bao should return the salute and wish Li Gong good health. ”

Li Shao smiled and said, "General Bao said this, could it be that he is still worried about the little misunderstanding between you and me a few days ago?" ”

Bao Xin laughed when he heard this, and said, "How can Bao be such a rat belly chicken intestine." ”

Without saying a word, he drank all the water and wine in his hand, his face was calm and did not hesitate, and the potter couldn't help but praise it when he watched it from the side.

Bao Xin is a good man with a true temperament.

Pingzheng stood up, saluted Bao Xinyi, and said on the donkey: "General Bao, I don't hide it, I invite you to come here today, in addition to asking you to add glory to Li Gong's birthday, there are also some things I want to ask General Bao and Wang Fujun to agree." ”

Over there, Wang Kuang was also shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Why should Pinggong be like this, it doesn't hurt to say it directly." ”

Ping Zheng sighed and said quietly: "Alas, the old man is old, timid, and has become afraid, far from the full of enthusiasm in the past...... General Bao and Tao Gongzi worked tirelessly to come to Hanoi, wanting to get rid of the white wave thieves and return the land of the Three Rivers to Qingping, which was originally a feat for the country and the people, but hated the old man and others for holding the Hanoi scholars, but because of timidity and avoided the war, admonished and obstructed...... A few days ago, the Baibo army led the troops to plunder the people, turning the four wild places around Huai County into a scorched earth, and harming how many innocent children...... This is all the fault of the old man and others. ”

As he spoke, two tears even flowed out.

The potters looked stupid.

I have to say that Pingzheng, this old man is very talented in acting, and he cries when he cries, which is what ordinary people can do? This is a drama spirit!

Most of the people present were moved by his tearful performance and sighed.

Ping choked up and continued: "Today, the old man and the patriarchs of Hanoi are here, and they are cheeky to ask for their lives, and ask the prince of the palace to help General Bao and Tao Gongzi send troops to Baibo Valley to fight against the rebels, and seek justice for the people who died around our Huai County!" ”

Wang Kuang touched the beard on his chin and said with relief: "What do you mean by that are you willing to help the officials and soldiers fight the thieves?" ”

Pingzheng wiped the tears on his face, and said proudly: "The old man and others discussed, the main prince sent troops, and during the period of begging for thieves, we and other clans are willing to work together to support the tripartite military horses, and give the soldiers cotton clothes and other things to ward off the cold before the winter solstice." ”

When Wang Kuang heard this, he breathed a long sigh of relief, turned his head and looked at Bao Xin for a while, and both of them smiled.

With the support of these Hanoi nobles, there is no need to worry about sending troops to fight against the White Polish army.

Wang Kuang cleared his throat and was just about to get up to express his gratitude, but he heard the potter suddenly speak.

"Pinggong, I think that the conditions you put forward seem to be a little unreliable, right?"

As soon as he said a word, Wang Kuang, Bao Xin, Wang Yun, Huangfu Song, Diao Chan, and the people of the Hanoi Wang clan all shifted their attention to him.

There were still tears of sadness on the old face, and at this moment he suddenly heard the potter speak...... The eyelid of the right eye jumped slightly for some reason.

"What does Tao Gongzi mean? The old man didn't understand...... The old man and others subsidized the officials and soldiers to break the thieves, when did they have the conditions? ”

The potter propped up his legs, stood up slowly, and slowly walked to the middle of the hall, scanning the people present one by one with his eyes, with a warm smile on his face.

"Really? Pinggong, what you said Tao didn't think was right. ”

Ping's two old eyes stared at the potter tightly.

"If the old man says something wrong, I hope that Mr. Tao will correct it."

In Tao's view, the word 'funding' is too ...... 'generally someone takes the initiative to do something or formulate a certain initiative, and others help, which is called 'funding'...... Just like a few days ago, we planned to destroy the Baibo army, and at that time, if Pinggong gave food and baggage, it could be called funding. ”

Ping Zheng spread his hands and said, "Isn't this what the old man and others are doing?" ”

"No, no, no." The potter stretched out a hand and waved it: "The premise I said is that we 'take the initiative' to exterminate the Baibo army, and what we do is called funding...... But now, we are no longer going to conquer the Bai Bo army, I discussed with General Bao, and after Li Gong's birthday, our two armies will go back to their respective territories...... At this time, Pinggong and your patriarchs stood up and asked us to suppress the thieves, which is not funding, but hiring...... I don't know if you understand this word? ”

Seeing that the leaders of several major clans led by Ping Zheng opened their mouths in surprise, the potter's smile became even more profound.

"Yes, that's it! The current situation is that you paid us to fight the White Polish Army for you, since you paid to hire it, I personally think that the bargaining chips that you are suitable for are not at all up to the standard that we can send troops to fight the White Polish Army for you...... So, I need you to re-weigh the quotes...... I don't know how to explain this way, so I can't understand it? ”

What the potters meant, how could the leaders of the Hanoi noble clans not understand?

Not only is it clear, but it is much more thorough than the average person! They're all human spirits, who doesn't know who?

The straight hand was hidden in the sleeve of the robe, and he was a little trembling with anger, but fortunately, the sleeves of the robe were wide, so he was not seen by others.

Zheng Yan, the head of the Zheng family in Ji County, stood up, glared at the pottery merchant with an angry face, and said, "What the Tao prince means by his words, doesn't he want to take the sheep by the hand?" ”

The potter pouted secretly, and said in his heart that this Zheng Yan is really uneducated! The word "hand-in-hand" is simply not appropriate here...... This is obviously a robbery by fire, okay?

At this level, it's still a family.

The Tao merchant's face showed a puzzled expression, and he said strangely: "Zheng Gong's words really make Tao confused, and what he said below is all real heartfelt words...... How did it get to Zheng Gong's mouth, as if I had become a thief like Bai Bojun? ”

Zheng Yan's face turned pale, and he said: "Tao Gongzi blackmailed my Hanoi Wang clan by conquest of the White Wave Thief, and his words and deeds are only afraid of ...... Hey hey ......"

Zheng Yan didn't say anything, but the meaning was obvious, he wanted to say that the potter was "no different from a thief".

Tao Shang coughed lightly, shook his head and said: "Zheng Gong's words made Tao not understand very much, dare to ask Zheng Gong, how to explain the word 'blackmail'?" ”

Zheng Yan was stunned when he heard this, but he didn't understand the meaning of this kid's words.

Seeing that he didn't speak, the potter said with a smile: "The so-called 'blackmail' refers to the use of violence, intimidation and other means to ask others for things that should not belong to them...... But dare to ask Zheng Gong, did Tao beat you just now? Or did it hit you? Or did you kill someone and set it on fire? I just made a request, Zheng Gong can not agree, how can it be said that I am blackmailing you Hanoi clans? This black pot, please forgive Tao for not carrying it. ”

"You're ............!!"

After saying something, Zheng Yan was only angry enough, and stammered: "You...... You...... The crusade against the thieves is the responsibility of the officials and the army, so why do you use this matter to blackmail us......"

The potter raised his hand, blocked Zheng Yan's words, and said righteously: "Dare to ask Zheng Gong, in the palace of the Han court, which law clearly states that my potter must clean up the thieves for you?" Hanoi's ...... Hehe, even if you are domineering in Hanoi, how dare you break ground on the heads of my Xuzhou people? ”

"You!!" Zheng Yanqi's face was red, and he sat in place with a "poof", panting heavily, his eyes instantly widened, and his breathing seemed a little difficult, looking at the surface he was a little unable to breathe.

Sima Lang and Li Shao were startled, and hurriedly got up from their seats, came to Zheng Yan's side, and smoothed his chest for him.

The potter's eyes widened......

No way? I don't mean anything serious...... Don't really me off.

Over there, Ping Zheng looked at the potter with a deep face, and saw that this kid had a sunny smile on his face, and an elegant and humble appearance...... Who ever wanted to speak but was so ruthless, he could choke a person to death.

I thought that by taking advantage of the face of the Zhuwang clan, I would first invite Wang Kuang, Bao Xin and others to the banquet, and then show the rights and wrongs of the Bai Bo Army, move them with affection, and finally promise to donate military food and clothing.

Things were already being rehearsed smoothly according to the Pingzheng script, and they were about to come to a successful conclusion, but after thousands of calculations, Pingzheng didn't calculate, these three soldiers and horses, the most difficult thing to deal with was not Wang Kuang and Bao Xin, it was actually this young and weak Tao family boy!

It was really a mistake to lose all the games, and in a few words, he let this kid lead the way by the nose and take the lead.

And on the other hand, Bao Xin and Wang Kuang were silent at the moment after listening to the words of the potter.

Obviously, the current conversation opened the hearts of the two princes a little...... They must also have moved to get more benefits from the Hanoi wang clan!

Who can be the governor of a party, who is a fuel-efficient lamp? Give them a chance, and they will immediately fight back and bite!

The Ping clan really hated the potter's teeth at the moment.

The old man remained silent, got up and arched his hand at the pottery merchant, and said indifferently: "Tao Gongzi, the old man has promised to fund your military rations and winter things, I don't know what else Tao Gongzi wants?" ”

The potter turned his head to look at Pingzheng and said with a smile: "What a good one to fund me...... Pinggong, Tao Moucai has already said that it should be 'hire' me. ”

Pingzheng took a deep breath, calmed the anger in his chest, and said, "Okay...... Then according to what Tao Gongzi said, the old man hires you! Tao Gongzi Jue, how much should the old man pay before he hired you to destroy the Baibo army thieves? ”

Tao Shang smiled and said, "Tao is not an insatiable person, and what I said is justified...... Since Pinggong also agreed that it was 'employment' rather than 'obligation', then Tao would settle the account with Pinggong today. ”

Ping Zhengyi stretched out his hand: "I want to hear it in detail." ”

The potter raised his left hand, and one by one he broke his fingers and said to Pingzheng: "Pinggong, since I was hired to eliminate thieves, in addition to the military rations and winter things you said are necessities, people will die in battle!" The military management of our Xuzhou Army has always been very strict, and the dead soldiers on the battlefield must be subsidized, how much is this? Also, if the injured soldier needs to be treated, how many medicinal materials will be consumed? The widow's family of the deceased soldier in Xuzhou still needs to be supported, how much is this? Horses and ordnance are consumed during the battle, and how much does it cost? ”

Straight to the point of listening.

This kid...... Even the "loss and consumption" of weapons can be calculated with the old man?

"Tao Gongzi...... You don't have to talk to the old man here, you just talk about your conditions! Success or failure, the old man will follow! ”

At this time, the fairness has been thoroughly understood...... This kid is by no means an easy person, I'm afraid he is darker than Dong Zhuo in Chang'an!

Instead of grinding with him about these useless things, it is better to just say it directly.

The potter smiled slightly and said, "Pinggong is refreshing, then I said it...... Don't be anxious. ”

Pingzheng snorted and said, "Childe, please speak!" ”

The potter stretched out a finger, his face suddenly turned cold, and he said coldly: "First, take the money!" ”

Pingzheng was taken aback by the potter's sudden momentum, and was a little distracted for a while, muttering, "How much to take?" ”

The potter raised his head and said, "Ten million dollars!" One less son won't work. ”

Wang Kuang, who was holding the wine cup in the carriage over there, couldn't help but take a 'poof' when he heard this, and directly squirted out the wine he had just drunk into his mouth.

Ten million dollars...... This kid really dares to ask for it...... It's not that the family can't afford it, but the asking price is a little too ......?

Pingzheng stared at the potter with a gloomy face, and he couldn't wait to pounce on him and strangle him.

After a while, Fang heard him grit his teeth and said, "Master Tao, it's too much, right?" ”

The potter raised his eyebrows and said, "Ten million dollars, is it a lot?" ”

Ping Zheng snorted and said, "Is it a lot?" Hehe...... Why don't you grab it! No, no, no! ”

This kid wants to go crazy for money, right? It costs 10 million to open your mouth!

The potter pondered and touched his chin, and said, "I think you will definitely be able to get out." ”

Pingzheng had a gloomy face, and said: "Dare to ask Tao Gongzi, why do you say that the old man paid 10 million yuan?" ”

The pottery merchant smiled, suddenly bowed to the southwest, and said: "In the first year of Guanghe, Emperor Xiaoling issued a decree to determine the price for the center of my Han Dynasty and the civil and military official positions of local prefectures and counties. Emperor Shengming, the Emperor of Xiaoling, his old man must have done research on the property of the world's wang clans, so the consumption within 10 million yuan must be within the tolerance range of the average wang clan...... Not to mention that there are four of them here! ”

Pingzheng almost didn't get mad when he heard the words.

This bastard...... Actually moved out of Emperor Xiaoling? And use the politics of selling officials as the basis for how much money the family can come up with?

Pingzheng's eyes darkened a little, and he said angrily: "Even if we can afford it, why should we pay so much!" ”

The potter stretched out his hand and pointed at Wang Yun, and said loudly: "The kid thinks that the lives of the Hanoi Army, the Jibei Army, and my Xuzhou Army, these tens of thousands of soldiers are at least worth more than a bought Sangong, right?" So it's not too much for me to ask for 10 million! ”

When the whole hall heard this, they all fell silent.

After a while, he heard Wang Yun speak slowly.

"It doesn't matter how much money you want, but when you said you bought the third prince, why did you point to the old man?"
