"Commander Shen, I have already said it. I can't watch more than 1,000 people led by the lord of Gao Dazhai die in Funiu Mountain, so even if there is little hope, I have to find a way to help them. In the current situation, I think that only by making them strong can they defeat a strong enemy and gain a foothold in the Funiu Mountains. Therefore, I have to find a way to get a batch of armor, weapons, bows, crossbows, shields, and other combat equipment and give them the strength to fight. It's the best I can think of. I didn't hide anything from Commander Shen, and I told everything I thought and did calmly, and Commander Shen should understand my intentions. ”

Lin Jue put down the wine glass, looked at Shen Tan with blazing eyes, and said in a deep voice.

Shen Tan swallowed the wine that had changed the flavor in his mouth, coughed twice, and said in a low voice: "Lin Gongzi's thoughts are naturally clear to Shen. But I have to remind Childe that Childe's move is to directly provide swords and weapons, which is not an ordinary bandit, or even a bandit. Does Childe really want to do this? ”

Lin Jue smiled and said: "Bandits are also dead, and raising bandits is also death, what's the difference?" I don't care about those things. My purpose is just to help them, I don't want them to die in the mountains, and at the same time make up for my previous guilt. My purpose is not to do anything rebellious, this section of Commander Shen must understand. ”

Shen Tan thought for a while and said: "That's true, it seems that you can't sit back and watch them being surrounded and suppressed to death by mountain bandits, that is also against morality." ”

Lin Jue arched his hand and said, "Thank you Commander Shen for your understanding." But I want to do it, but there are some things that are not easy to do. As the commander said, weapons, armor, bows, crossbows, and other things are all materials strictly controlled by the imperial court, and it is not easy to get their hands on them. I inquired, and there are some sales on the black market, but the quantity is insufficient, and the second is not safe, and it is easy to leak the news. Thinking about it, I really don't have a clue. I am not too familiar with this kind of channel for the exchange of military equipment and materials, and I have the heart to inquire about it, but I am afraid of causing trouble. After thinking about it, I think it's better to ask someone who understands this aspect and reassures me. No, I'm afraid that only Commander Shen meets this condition in the circle I have associated. Therefore, I invite Commander Shen to gather today, and I would like to ask Commander Shen to point me in the direction. ”

Shen Tan sighed in his heart, he guessed it, sure enough, this wine is not ordinary wine, and Lin Gongzi will not be so bored that he invites himself to a drink for no reason, this matter is finally clear.

However, this matter is very important, and Shen Tan is more careful in his heart. If you are not careful, you will be involved in it. It's really just himself, for his friends, especially a friend like Lin Jue, he is also willing. But this is the act of gangsters and bandits, and if you involve yourself, you will be involved in the palace, which is a big deal. Don't be careless.

"Lin Gongzi, this matter is not easy to handle. I do know where these supplies flow, and I even know that some people make money by stealing and selling military equipment, but these things are extremely secret, and I have never done anything like this. If I want to help you contact this matter, I will have to ask someone else to open the joint, but then the matter will be easily leaked. And this matter is too sensitive, after all, this is provided to ...... Mountain bandit stuff. Let's make it clear, if the news is revealed, it's not your business and mine, it's going to pull out the prince. Shen Tan groaned with his beautiful hair.

Lin Jue nodded and said, "Your worries are right, this matter must not involve others, it is out of extreme caution that I am reluctant to buy from the black market." Every joint needs to be a person who understands himself, and anyone who doesn't know the details can't teach him to know, otherwise there will be endless troubles. ”

Shen Tan said: "Childe understands this section, so I don't need to say more." Shen Tan is just the commander of the guards of the palace, not the chief general of the imperial court. If I were the commander of the Ning Navy and I was in power, then this matter would not be a problem. It's a pity that I have little power and can't do anything. ”

Lin Jue smiled, thought about it, nodded and smiled: "That's right, it's me who is too whimsical, and it is really difficult to pull Commander Shen to help with such a favor." Anyway, I won't talk about it again. Commander Shen didn't say it, let's drink and catch up, just have a drink. Come on, drink and eat. ”

Lin Jue grabbed the wine jug and poured wine for Shen Tan, raised his glass to toast Shen Tan, and then pointed to the dishes on the table and introduced it.

"Come, try this, this plate is said to be the specialty dish here, called green onion and splash rabbit. At the beginning of winter, the hare is fat, and it is the best time to eat. This is a newly killed black rabbit, I am a live rabbit ordered by myself, I watched this kitchen kill with my own eyes, you taste it, the taste is really good. ”

Shen Tan nodded and put a piece in his mouth, it tasted really good, but Shen Tan didn't think this rabbit meat was so delicious at the moment. Because he was a little panicked in his heart. Lin Gongzi is a person he admires, and if it weren't for his resourcefulness during the trip to Guishan Island, he would probably have died there. Since then, he has been looking for an opportunity to repay Lin Gongzi, but Lin Gongzi is not a person who wants to repay his kindness, so he always feels that he owes him something. And today, Lin Gongzi asked him to help with his errands, but he politely refused him, and he was really panicked. However, this matter is really not trivial, Lin Gongzi's idea is too bold, and if he is not careful, it will be an uncontrollable situation, and he can't be cautious.

Lin Jue was still smiling, introducing another plate of black dishes like no one.

"This plate is called smoked rat roasted bats. Sounds a little creepy, doesn't it? This chef is from Guangdong, and this plate is a famous dish of Guangdong. It's a pity that no one dares to eat in my Hangzhou. Once again, I ordered a plate. Unexpectedly, the taste is unexpectedly delicious. No, I ordered it today, and you can taste the novelty too. Don't think that the raw materials are simple, mountain rats are easy to obtain, and bats are not easy to get at this time. This was still caught from a cave in Guangdong and transported thousands of miles away. It's not easy to let the bats freeze to death on the way. Come, taste it, don't look at the roast doesn't look good, the taste is first-class delicious. ”

Shen Tan silently stretched out his chopsticks and took a piece of black meat into his mouth, maybe this dish was indeed delicious, but Shen Tan felt that it tasted like chewing wax.

"This plate is called hand-washing crab. What is a hand-washing crab? I'll tell you ......" Lin Jue ordered another plate of golden dishes and introduced them.

Shen Tan finally couldn't help it, put down his chopsticks and said to Lin Jue: "Lin Gongzi, you say, what should I do about this?" ”

Lin Jue was surprised: "What's the matter?" ”

Shen Tan said: "It's the weapon equipment you just said, what else can it be?" ”

Lin Jue smiled: "Didn't I say it? Let's not talk about it, I'll figure it out myself. Commander Shen left it alone. ”

Shen Tan stretched out his hand and slapped the chopsticks on the table and said, "Lin Gongzi must think that I, Shen Tan, am not enough friends." But Childe knows, I really can't help. As I said earlier, there are too many links in the middle, and there is a danger of leakage. Childe wants to believe me, Shen is not the kind of person who refuses to help his friends. What's more, this is what Lin Gongzi said to me. ”

Lin Jue smiled: "I believe you, I didn't say I don't believe you." I don't think you're a friend enough. Commander Shen is the most righteous person I know, otherwise I wouldn't have asked you for help. If you say you can't help it, you must not be able to help, can I blame you? In any case, this incident will not have any effect on your friendship with me. Commander Shen doesn't have to think about it, don't mention this matter again, let's have a few glasses of wine, Commander Shen is also very busy on weekdays, let's get together rarely. ”

Shen Tan frowned and said, "But why do I always feel that Lin Gongzi has an opinion of me in his heart?" I always feel that in Lin Gongzi's heart, I am afraid that at this moment, I think that I, Shen Tan, am an unworthy friend. ”

Lin Jue smiled bitterly: "That's what you think in your heart, I don't think so." Commander Shen, you're really too worried. Come, drink and drink, don't mention this matter. ”

Lin Jue picked up the wine glass and toasted Shen Tan, and was about to drink it when Shen Tan suddenly reached out and grabbed Lin Jue's wrist.

"Lin Gongzi is not busy drinking, if this matter cannot be solved, Shen will feel uneasy, and he really can't drink."

Lin Jue put down his wine glass and sighed: "Why should Commander Shen be like this, don't take this matter to heart, I know that this matter is difficult to do, and I just want to try my luck when I invite Commander Shen, and it doesn't have to be Commander Shen to help with this." ”

Shen Tan frowned and said: "No, since you find me, you can afford me Shen Tan." Childe, let me think about it and see if there is anything else I can do. ”

Shen Tan stood up and walked around the box with his hands in his hands, frowning, thinking hard. Lin Jue sat there with a smile on his face, looking at Shen Tan and thinking bitterly. I thought: Shen Tan is really the kind of person he imagined, he is cautious, but he is very righteous and very gracious. This kind of person is sometimes more effective by retreating as a strategy. He had politely rejected himself just now, and if he forced his request again, he would be even more resolute. However, once he doesn't mention it, people like him will feel guilty in their hearts, and they will take the initiative to find a way.

As long as this kind of person touches his temper, he will put his heart into your heart and take great risks for you. If he was to think that he was cowardly, it would be a complete misinterpretation of this person. On that day, he dared to disobey the order of the little prince in the palace and let himself go, which shows that he is not a person without courage. Therefore, Lin Jue didn't think that Shen Tan didn't dare to do it because he was timid, but he did have some concerns. What he has to do is for him to dispel this concern by himself, and let the feeling of regret overwhelm the worry in his heart.

"Hey, Commander Shen, forget it if you can't do it, you really don't have to take it to heart. I can't bear to see Commander Shen worry like this. In fact, I was already very moved, and it was quite comforting that Commander Shen could think hard about this matter. Don't worry, not only did I not feel the slightest displeasure, but I respected Commander Shen even more. You're a friend, I, Lin Jue, have made up my mind. Lin Jue said in a sincere tone.

As everyone knows, the more Lin Jue said this, the more sorry Shen Tan felt in his heart, and the more unbearable he was.
