Although he just learned that Wei Bao was going to buy Liaomin, Wu Sanfeng seemed to be in a particularly good state today, not only with clear arguments, but also eloquent and powerful, and not stumbling at all.

Wu Xiang was also very satisfied when he heard this, no matter what, as long as the eldest son can be as clear as he is now, no matter what his son does is right or wrong, he will be happy.

Wu Xiang's most sorrowful thing is that Wu Sanfeng doesn't know why, he is confused all day long, and he acts irritable, impatient, and reckless.

"What Master Wu said is good, it's all good." Wei Bao smiled and slapped his face gently.

"Hmph, still use you?" Wu Sanfeng himself was also very satisfied with the performance just now, and secretly thought that he was already invincible! What else can Wei Bao say this time?

"It's really hard for me to prove that I have the ability to keep southern Liaoning, and I want so many people, I really want to put it in southern Liaoning to fight for construction." Wei Bao was a little stunned.

"Hahahaha, hahahahaha, we heard you right, right? I...... Hahaha...... "Wu Sanfeng laughed arrogantly, laughing so refreshingly and happily, I haven't laughed so heartily for a long time."

Wei Bao's head swept through three black lines, as for being happy like this?

Finally waited for Wu Sanfeng to finish laughing, Wu Sanfeng continued: "Wei Bao, Wei Bao, isn't your mouth very hard?" Isn't it true that everything that is dead can be said to be alive? Why can't you speak now? No excuses now? ”

"It depends on the eyesight, I believe that the eldest prince and the eldest lord Wu should have this eyesight! Millions of Liao people are not millions of leeks, they are placed in Liaodong and harvested every year, and there will be no more than 500,000 left in three or five years! But if I concentrate on southern Liaoning at one time, it's different! Just because the common people are defending their bases, taking mountain after mountain as defense, river by river, and even tree by tree as defense, 20,000 or 30,000 Jiannu will be like entering the vast ocean, and they will not find a chance to fight if they have the power to turn the earth upside down! As long as you keep southern Liaoning, the big families in eastern and western Liaoning can get dividends every year! Wei Bao said indifferently.

"But you can't prove that you can defend southern Liaoning, if the common people can prevent slaves, why can't they defend themselves in Liaodong? Hahaha...... "Wu Sanfeng is energetic, so he grabbed a little bit and attacked Wei Bao fiercely."

Wei Bao sighed secretly, secretly thinking that he had indeed thought things too simple before, and now it seems that if he wants to convince the big families in Liaoxi and Liaodong, he must first have someone of Wu Xiang's level to take the lead, but this is almost an impossible task.

"Lord Wu, I am very sincere, I am willing to bet 4 million taels of silver in the Wu family first, and 400,000 catties of pure grain to the Wu family! In this way, I will pay the ransom of the Liao people and a year's grain in advance, and there is no risk to the big families in Liaodong and Liaoxi! If you want to lose, you will lose it to me! Wei Bao no longer talked nonsense with Wu Sanfeng, who was messing around, and instead continued to focus on Wu Xiang.

Wu Xiang still pretended to be deaf and dumb, as if he hadn't heard Wei Bao's words at all.

Wei Bao sighed, seeing that Wu Xiang really didn't give face, he didn't bother to talk nonsense, and secretly thought that if he was yellow, he would be yellow! Anyway, I didn't lose anything, and I already worked hard anyway!

However, thinking that a large amount of food, manpower and material resources that have been invested in southern Liaoning are likely to be given to Jiannu for free, I still can't help but feel a tingling in my heart, no, it should be a severe pain, and I sweat profusely on my forehead.

Although he was in pain in his heart, Wei Bao mixed up to this level, and he still had this concentration, and he ate wine and food slowly like no one else, just waiting for this banquet to end early!

Mao Yuanyi and Jiang Yingzhao were originally the main lobbyists, but now that Wei Bao is out of line, they can see that this matter is absolutely impossible, so they also whisper to each other and drink slowly.

Wu Sanfu really couldn't stand it, although Wei Bao pretended to be very calm on the surface, but Wu Sanfu had talked to Wei Bao just now, and he knew how much capital Wei Bao had invested and how eager he was to succeed.

Wei Bao glanced up at Wu Sanfu and understood, but he took a square towel at hand and wiped his mouth: "Everyone, use it slowly, I'll come when I go." "Don't say what to do, Wei Bao wants to leave early.

Wei Bao is rarely so graceless, he is really aggrieved, uncomfortable, and angry, for fear that if he stays for a while, his concentration is not enough, and he can't help but lose his temper.

"Hehe, let him go, I think he's uncomfortable here." Wu Sanfeng laughed and said: "If I sent millions of stones, grains and grass to Mao Wenlong, and invested so much silver to go to southern Liaoning, but the bamboo basket was empty, I guess I will immediately go to find a rope to hang it clean!" ”

No matter how big Wei Bao's qi was, he couldn't help it anymore, Tie blushed his face, stood up, stopped talking nonsense, and walked towards the door.

Wu Sanfu and Wu Xuexia stood up in unison to stop each other.

"Xiaobao, let's leave after eating, how many chopsticks have you just eaten? Let's have two more glasses of wine. Wu Sanfu said.

"Yes, you can't eat in such a hurry, you have to chew slowly." Wu Xuexia also said softly.

Mao Yuanyi and Jiang Yingzhao didn't say anything, they looked at Wei Bao coldly, and also watched the father and son of the Wu family, although the two were the main lobbyists, but there was no pressure, whether this thing was successful or not, they felt that it didn't matter. Because there is no interest in the two of them.

"Sit down, sit down, you see that Xuexia has asked you to eat more." Wu Sanfu pressed Wei Bao to sit down.

Wei Bao had to sit down again, showing a wry smile, secretly thinking what if he could sit down for a while? He can still see the scene accurately, as far as Wu Xiang's current posture is concerned, let alone him, even if Sun Chengzong and the Emperor of the Apocalypse come in person, it is estimated that he will not be able to move these local tycoons in Liaoxi and Liaodong! Although these people are not warlords, they are quasi-warlords who are born with warlord attributes! You don't have to buy anyone's account at all.

"Daddy." Wu Xuexia gently pulled Wu Xiang's sleeve and whispered.

Wu Xiang frowned, and said in a low voice: "Eat your things, and go back to the pavilion with your second brother after eating." ”

Wu Xuexia mumbled angrily and returned to her seat.

The meal became even colder now, and everyone finished eating silently, and ended earlier than everyone in the big courtyard.

Wei Bao did not go back to Sun Chengzong's side directly, but went to the small room where he was temporarily staying to rest. I was sad about alcohol, and although I didn't drink a few glasses just now, I had a headache and stomach ache, and it hurt everywhere.

Although Wei Bao didn't want to show his face, Wei Bao's people did not stop working, although the Ningyuan area was not as good as Shanhaiguan and Yongping Mansion, there were so many people from the Heaven and Earth Society, but there were also people from the Heaven and Earth Society in the open and secret, as well as the special service personnel of the Statistics Bureau.

The gang is stepping up their activities at the wine table, bribing, courtesy, and making big promises, all of which are routine tactics.

The rumor that Wei Bao wants to buy a large number of Liao people has been released.

The big families in Liaodong and Liaoxi are not stupid, everyone has an account in their hearts, including Wu Xiang, although it was like a monolith just now, and he didn't give Wei Bao a chance at all, but if he reckoned with the account, if he really followed Wei Bao's method, he would definitely earn more than now, and few of them were butchers, they were neurotic, and they were willing to watch a large number of Liao people be killed and taken away by Jiannu every year!

It's just that these things are thought to be the business of the superiors, and they just listen to them, so many people don't say anything on the surface, and even claim that they are, saying that Wei Bao's method is very good, not bad, but they don't particularly take it to heart.

Wu Sanfu took Wu Xuexia out, sighed, and said softly: "Xiaobao is afraid that he will be taught a lesson this time, his business is too smooth!" It's a big profit all the way, and if you fall down, I'm afraid that this heel is too big and it will collapse. ”

"Not necessarily!" Wu Xuexia replied to Wu Sanfu softly: "If there is no support from the Supervisor, this wine will not be able to be drunk!" ”

"But our father and uncle don't need to buy Sun Chengzong's account." Wu Sanfu said disapprenously: "Do you still think there is a play?" ”

"There's a play! The plays in the world are all made up by people, and now Wei Bao just doesn't know how to continue acting, but the stage has been set up, and the play has not ended. Wu Xuexia came up with an idea that was much more mature than her age.

Wu Sanfu took a deep look at his sister, and secretly thought that his sister was also a serious person, which was really compatible with Wei Bao.

Wei Bao's negotiations with Wu Xiang were unsuccessful, but the banquet at Sun Chengzong and Zu Dashou's side did not end.

said that it was a banquet, but in fact, Sun Chengzong and Zu Dashou had a meal, and Zu Kefa was not qualified to serve at this kind of banquet. Sun Chengzong did not recruit others to accompany him.

Wu Xiang left the banquet and came directly here to wait for Zu Dashou to meet.

Zu Kefa, who was standing not far from the door, was also waiting for Zu Dashou to come out.

When Zu Kefa saw Wu Xiang and Wu Sanfeng coming, he hurriedly greeted him, and the three of them touched a small head first.

Wu Sanfeng's mouth was fast, and he said what Wei Bao had just said during the banquet, and learned the incomplete words that Wei Bao refuted to Zu Kefa in a vivid manner.

Now all the nearly 400 Jiliao officials, and the big families in Liaoxi and Liaodong, almost all know Wei Bao's 'big plan', but Zu Kefa still doesn't know it.

After listening to Wu Sanfeng's story, Zu Kefa scolded angrily in a low voice: "This Wei Bao is really a bad stomach, he just bought Liaonan from Mao Wenlong, and now he has come to fight the idea of millions of Liao people in Liaodong?" It's really a toad eating swan meat, and you dare to think about anything! ”

"Isn't it? This villager is like a madman, anyway, as long as something hits this guy, it will be fine! Wu Sanfeng echoed with a smile.

"Uncle, don't worry, my father will not agree to this." Zu Kefa saw that Wu Xiang had not made a sound, thinking that Wu Xiang was worried, so he hurriedly comforted him.

Wu Xiang nodded: "I think so too." ”

Outside the door, Wu Xiang, Zu Kefa and Wu Sanfeng whispered, inside the door, in the huge hall, there was only one table, Sun Chengzong and Zu Dashou sat opposite each other, and the two were also talking.

"Think about it again, Xiaobao told me, if there was something that offended you before, he had the sincerity to resolve it! Do you understand what I mean? You are a general who leads a party, and a general must have the bearing of a general. Sun Chengzong regarded Zu Dashou as his own.

Zu Dashou was still respectful in front of Sun Chengzong, and said in a low voice: "Boss, I'm not stingy, at my age, no matter how bad I am, I won't be angry with a teenager, not to mention that Wei Bao is now a disciple of the Inspector, and I am angry with Wei Bao, isn't it just that I can't get along with the Inspector?" No, it won't. ”

"That's good, what I just told you is only good for Liaodong and not bad, don't be busy refusing first, and then think about it." Sun Chengzong said.

"Master Overseer, I'm not angry with Wei Bao, but there are indeed some things that I can't get used to about Wei Bao's behavior. Take what you said, if millions of Liao people are withdrawn, the outside of the border will be empty, and if there are no more people, what will we do against Jiannu? Wei Bao wants to buy people's hearts with silver, and wants to buy out the foundation of my Liaodong, and his heart can be punished. Zu Dashou said coldly.

"Huh? Are you talking about Wei Bao, or are you talking about me? Could it be that I, as the Governor of Jiliao, also hope that your Liaodong will collapse? Wei Bao can not only give you such a large sum of silver to buy the Liao people at one time, but also is willing to give you far more grain every year than you have in Tuntian! You can continue to get subsidized military salaries and food salaries from the imperial court, what's so bad about that? What have you lost? Sun Chengzong said unhappily: "Is it not true that a large number of Liao people are killed and abducted by Jiannu every year?" You don't want the silver and food for nothing, you can't get anything, you don't say anything, and you kill and kidnap the common people for nothing, this is what you want? ”

"Master Overseer! Let's not talk about whether Wei Bao can hold southern Liaoning, and whether he can fulfill his promise to pay grain every year! Liaonan can't even hold Mao Wenlong, otherwise why give it to Wei Bao? In addition, I think Wei Bao got so many people to go, and dared to take the initiative to go to southern Liaoning, it is already obvious that Wei Bao wants to build slaves! This is to bring people and land together to join Jiannu! Let's ask, with such a big benefit, will Jiannu not buy his Wei Bao's account? Wei Bao, a profiteer like him, what can't he do? I advise the Overseer to be more vigilant against this newly accepted disciple, otherwise you will be famous for a lifetime, and you will never make any flaws when you retire after success! Zu Dashou said very politely.

In fact, Zu Dashou's words not only damaged Wei Bao, but also damaged Sun Chengzong!

At the other end just now, Wu Sanfeng only used Wei Bao's inability to defend southern Liaoning as a blow argument, and did not propose that Wei Bao would directly surrender to the enemy, which even Wu Sanfeng did not believe.

But now Zu Dashou has said all the words that Wei Bao will defect to the enemy, which is a very serious crime, and it is really involved, and Sun Chengzong will bear the brunt of being implicated.

This is the place where one of his ancestors lost Sun Chengzong, and second, although Sun Chengzong is old, his body is still very healthy, and he has no aging at all, and it will not be a problem to gallop in the field for ten years, but Zu Dashou said that Sun Chengzong has reached the time of retirement!

For those who are in power, this kind of talk is the same as pointing at someone else's nose and saying that someone else's life is short, which is a very vicious curse.

Sun Chengzong's expression was still calm, but his eyes rarely showed murderous aura, and he looked directly at Zu Dashou: "You can't eat indiscriminately, and you can't talk nonsense!" Do you have any evidence for saying that? ”

"Not yet, but since Wei Bao dares to come up with such a whimsical idea, there is clearly a problem! I didn't mean to bump into the Overseer, just to remind him, the Overseer don't mind. Zu Dashou was shocked by Sun Chengzong's fierce gaze.

If Sun Chengzong is only popular and prestigious, it is not enough to deter the entire Jiliao, Sun Chengzong can mix in the current position of a super first-class official, and he is also a very capable person who is very proficient in the constraints of officialdom.

Sun Chengzong saw that Zu Dashou softened a little, and retracted his fierce gaze: "If there is no evidence, don't export it easily in the future." Beware of setting yourself on fire! ”

"Yes, Master Overseer, it's the last general who has lost his word." Zu Dashou hurriedly apologized.

"It's not a gaffe! This is not a small matter! Sun Chengzong buckled his hat and said: "I want to remind you instead, if this matter proposed by Wei Bao is spread to the imperial court, the imperial court will definitely evaluate the pros and cons of doing so, if you feel that the pros outweigh the disadvantages, and you have this iron-clad obstruction attitude, you have to beware of people saying that you are fornicating with slaves, deliberately destroying border affairs, and destroying border defense!" ”

When Zu Dashou heard this, he suddenly widened his eyes, which were originally always a slit, gloomy and godless: "Master Inspector, this is too heavy, right?" ”

"Is it heavy? Don't you know how many copies of the impeachment of you in Liaoxi and Liaodong have secretly conspired with Jiannu? I'll tell you the truth, your ancestor Dashou is the first to bear the brunt! Moreover, there are also people who have direct evidence to prove that you have been doing business privately with Jiannu all year round! Secretly deliver food to Jiannu! I don't even know how many times I've said love for you here, and I've even said good things for you directly in front of Your Majesty! No less than three times! Sun Chengzong said sharply.

Zu Dashou was shocked again, Sun Chengzong rarely used this tone to talk to people, and gentle people launched a powerful one, which was particularly powerful! At this time, Sun Chengzong's body seemed to be shrouded in a domineering halo.

"Thank you, Master, thank you, the last general knows, the last general has always been grateful for the kindness of the overseer." Zu Dashou hurriedly showed weakness.

"Okay, okay, when it comes to this, I see what you think! However, don't blame me for not reminding you in advance, sometimes, one wrong step can lead to lifelong regrets! I, Sun Chengzong, am not the one who was temporarily brought to Liaodong by the imperial court, I took the initiative to invite Ying! At my age, I sit in the court well, and I am friendly with everyone, and I won't live a good life? Sun Chengzong got up and said to the door: "Tell them that the banquet has been withdrawn!" And then the discussion! Today, it is necessary to agree on the matter of dealing with Jiannu within the year! ”

"Yes, sir!" The attendants outside the door hurriedly shouted their orders.

Zu Dashou was secretly surprised, Sun Chengzong's attitude was very abnormal, he was really a little scared, he had never seen the Inspector so 'horizontal', the Inspector usually seemed to laugh at Maitreya with everyone, and today it seems that he is going to do business?

Originally, everyone ate red-faced and red-eared, and this meal was eaten for more than an hour, and at this time, it was already approaching dusk from mid-afternoon, and they all thought that they would simply eat dinner together, and then end the session, and then discuss it tomorrow, right? Anyway, this kind of discussion is old wine and old food, and I can't discuss it ugly, every time I make a noise and shout, in the end, it means that there is no discussion.

Wei Bao originally thought that this was the end of the day, and planned to sleep for a while, and then wait until Zu Dashou and they left, and then meet Sun Chengzong, who knew that his subordinates would call him after a while, saying that they were going to discuss matters again.

Wei Bao was slightly puzzled, he didn't expect to start the discussion so soon?

The groggy and lengthy rhythm of the morning made Wei Bao feel that this ancient bureaucratic meeting was no worse than modern ones, and it was meaningless to say things without oil and salt.

It's mainly that I said a lot of things, all of which I didn't do, or did things that I didn't finish, and then there was no follow-up, and there were a lot of punishments or something.

It seems that the Ming officialdom only has rewards, no punishments? Everyone is in harmony?

If that's the case, it's still a matter of discussion?

However, Wei Bao still quickly turned over and stood in his position - behind Sun Chengzong, standing with a group of praise paintings, he was not qualified to participate in this level of deliberations, but as a disciple of Sun Chengzong, he can be regarded as a 'social elite'. If you want to stay in modern times, you can be regarded as a representative, and you have finally passed the addiction of no longer being represented in everything.

"I was surprised that someone was slandering my students during a meal just now! My Sun Chengzong's students, not to say that they are all perfect, at least they are all people that my Sun Chengzong is optimistic about! To say that I am a student of Sun Chengzong is to say that I am Sun Chengzong himself! Today, all the city building plans must be completed by a deadline, and tomorrow I will personally go to the capital to face the saint! The problem in Liaoxi and Liaodong is very big, and it can even be said that it is terminally ill! My Sun Chengzong is a handful of years, with the generosity of the emperor, but he lives a leisurely life, and he takes the initiative to invite Ying to the bitter cold place outside the Guan, and he has worked hard for several years, and he does not ask for a name in history, nor does he ask someone to read my good, but you can't have the idea of defecting to the enemy, you can't use this kind of black to disgust people, to pierce my old man's heart! Sun Chengzong said sharply, and then began to cry.

This made hundreds of people stunned, many people were drowsy from drinking just now, one by one, all of a sudden, the collective wine woke up, even if they were not fully awake, they all stared wide-eyed, and looked at the old man in a daze, their eyes did not dare to move away for a moment, they didn't know what was going on, anyway, they suddenly felt the majestic pressure, it seemed that the sunny, high autumn weather, suddenly turned into a sky full of iron and lead pressure down, this atmosphere can suddenly crush people to death, and the hall only heard the old man crying bitterly.

Wei Bao also looked at Sun Chengzong in astonishment, I don't know which play the teacher is singing? However, Wei Bao secretly wondered, since he was talking about someone slandering the student of Master Inspector when he was drinking just now.

Didn't Master Inspector just drink with Zu Dashou and the others? So who else could say that? It must be Zu Dashou who said it!

Who else can a student refer to? It must be him Wei Baobei.

It's not just Wei Bao who thinks so, everyone present thinks so, because now the people here, one is also one, they all know that Wei Bao is going to buy a large number of Liaomin, Sun Chengzong said that Zu Dashou slandered his students, it must be Zu Dashou slandered Wei Bao to buy Liaomin.

Everyone's main eyes were on Lord Sun Chengzong, but the afterglow invariably swept towards Zu Dashou at the same time.

Zu Dashou stood in place, his face instantly turned pale, he never thought that Old Inspector Sun would actually kill himself like this? Is this going to kill yourself? With the teacher-student friendship between the old superintendent and His Majesty, not to mention killing him an ancestor and a border general, it is directly killing the cabinet ministers, cabinet members, and various ministries, they are all very sure, in the officialdom, how many people dare to guarantee that the butt must be clean?

The most involved by Zu Dashou is naturally the direct members Wu Xiang, Zu Kefa, and Wu Sanfeng.

The three of them were all present, and the three of them were also hardcore members of the Zu Dashou family, Wu Xiang, Zu Kefa, and Wu Sanfeng were all so shocked that half of the three souls and seven spirits flew away, and all of them stood on the spot as if they had no souls.

Sun Chengzong really wants to fight head-on, who can resist it?

The key is that Zu Dashou, Wu Xiang, Zu Kefa and Wu Sanfeng really couldn't imagine that the old superintendent would support Wei Bao so strongly? That's the relationship between father and son, isn't it?

Impossible, impossible!

These are a few words that are repeatedly circling in the hearts of the four people, in their heads, and on their sides.

Other than that, there is nothing else that is powerless to think.

Wei Bao seemed to be a little enlightened, overjoyed, and at the same time in ecstasy, the whole person was in good spirits.
