Speaking of this, Luo Xin smiled faintly and said: "In this way, we can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight and reap the benefits of the fishermen." ”

Looking at Luo Xin's young face, Xu Shixing didn't know what to say at this time, and sighed that he was still too innocent compared to Luo Xin.

At this time, Lu Daqing had already left. Only Luo Xin and Xu Shixing were left in the room, Xu Shixing thought for a while and said:

"In this way, the five great families will not deal with Xu Luqing?"

"He can't see the head of the five great families at all."

"How do you know?"

Luo Xin smiled, without words, but said secretly in his heart: "Are you eating for nothing when I am a secret agency?" ”

In fact, on the night of Luo Xin's arrival in Hangzhou, Wang Cuiqiao's subordinates went to see Lu Ding with Luo Xin's message and informed Lu Ding of the plan of the matter. Regarding these, Luo Xin naturally wouldn't tell Xu Shixing, but just said lightly:

"Wait, word will come back in a moment."

Sure enough, at noon, Lu Daqing walked in again and said:

"Master Hou, Xu Luqing went to visit the five great families in turn, but they were all closed."

"Got it!" Luo Xin nodded.

Lu Daqing turned around and left again, Xu Shixing looked at Luo Xin and said, "My lord, are the five great families really not afraid of Xu Jie's revenge?" ”

"Afraid! How can you not be afraid! Luo Xin laughed.

"And they still are?"

"That's because I thought they were more afraid of me."

Xu Shixing's expression was stunned, and then Luo Xin's past confrontation with the original six great families in the southeast sounded, thinking about Luo Xin's ruthlessness during that period, Xu Shixing's heart was a little sudden, I am afraid that Luo Xin had already planted the seeds of fear in the hearts of the five great families. In this world, I am afraid that today's five great families, even if they are not afraid of the emperor, they will be afraid of Luo Xin.

Moreover, Luo Xin is not simply afraid of the five great families, but also able to make money with the five great families. In this way, they naturally leaned towards Luo Xin and rejected Xu Jie.

"My lord, what do you think Xu Luqing will do next? He simply could not afford to complete the organization of the supply in two days. ”

Luo Xin sneered again and said, "Of course he has a way?" ”

"What's the solution?"

"Come and beg me!"

"Please?" Xu Shixing opened his mouth wide, and said in surprise for a long time: "Won't it?" Xu Luqing turned his face with you just now. And you won't come here again to seek humiliation, right? ”

"He can't help it, because I'm the only one who can save Xufu. And their Xu family's family style is timid, and there are no strong people. Therefore he will surely come back and ask me. ”

Just as he was saying this, Lu Daqing walked in again and said, "Master Hou, Xu Luqing asks to see you." ”

"Here we go!" Luo Xin smiled at Xu Shixing and said with a smile.

Xu Shixing's face showed admiration and said, "The adults have already rejected him, and the lower officials don't know why he still comes?" Could it be that he had come up with something to get the adults to agree to a grace period? ”

Luo Xin waved his hand and said, "This is not what he came to ask for this time. ”

"What's that? What could be more important today? ”

"He came to beg me to match him with the five great families."

"Huh?" Xu Shixing looked at Luo Xin with his mouth wide open.

Luo Xin said to Xu Luqing: "Go and invite him in." ”

"Yes, Master Hou!"

Lu Daqing turned around and left excitedly, and after a while, he walked in from outside with Xu Luqing. Xu Luqing walked in, looked up and saw Luo Xin, who seemed to be smiling, and his face was blushing. But under the low eaves, I had to bow my head. Forced himself to endure the shame and anger in his heart, squeezed out a smile on his face and said:

"Lu Qing has seen Lord Luo."

The last time Xu Luqing came to visit Luo Xin, Luo Xin personally greeted him out of the door, this time not only did he not go out to greet him, but he didn't even stand up, and he didn't give up his seat to Xu Luqing, but said lightly:

"Brother Xu went and returned, I don't know what to learn?"

Xu Luqing's face was full of shame, and he couldn't wait to turn around and leave at this time, and he had already hated Luo Xin to the extreme in his heart. However, at this time, only Luo Xin could save the Xu family, his father was far away in the capital, and the distant water could not save the near fire. Only swallowed his anger and squeezed out a smile on his face and said:

"Lord Luo, there's a request below."

Luo Xin said lightly: "If it is the previous request, then there is no need, this official will not forgive time." ”

"No, no, no!" Xu Luqing waved his hand again and again: "It's not that thing." ”

"Oh?" Luo Xin's face was stunned for a moment, and then a relieved smile appeared: "Please sit down and serve tea." ”

Seeing the changes on Luo Xin's face, Xu Luqing couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, could it be that this ten-day period was not ordered by Luo Xin, but set by His Majesty? Otherwise, how could Luo Xin be afraid to ask him for a few days? How can you show a relieved expression?

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he sat there distracted.

Luo Xin sat there and stopped talking, at this time he completely took the initiative and naturally did not speak first. In negotiations, it is often the case that whoever speaks first loses the upper hand.

Soon, someone served tea, which woke Xu Luqing up from his trance, smiled awkwardly, looked at Luo Xin and lowered his posture and said:

"My lord, in order to complete this transaction, our Xu Mansion has sold a lot of family property and prepared enough silver."

"Hmm!" Luo Xin nodded appreciatively and said, "This attitude is good, I will play it to Your Majesty truthfully." ”

Luo Xin's condescending tone made Xu Luqing very unhappy in his heart. Don't say that you are just a fourth-grade official, even if you are a first-grade official, you have to be polite when you see him Xu Luqing, there is no such high-minded appearance.

However, being under the eaves, I had to bow my head. Who made his Xu Mansion ask Luo Xin now?

took a breath, calmed the displeasure in his heart, and said with a smile on his face:

"However, it is still difficult for us in Xufu to complete this transaction."

"Oh!"

Luo Xin didn't have the anger that Xu Luqing imagined, and he didn't even have a dark face, he still looked faint. This appearance made Xu Luqing's heart hang.

What does Luo Xin's expression mean?

I don't care if the Xu Mansion can complete the transaction at all!

There is even a possibility, that is, hoping that their Xu Mansion will not be able to complete the transaction, so it is good to raid the Xu Mansion. Once the house is raided, a lot of things will be copied, and once the house is raided, Emperor Jiajing will not save any face for Xu Jie, that is to say, Luo Xin will force Emperor Jiajing into a corner, and it will not work if he does not deal with Xu Jie.

Xu Jie's home has been raided, how can Xu Jie's cabinet be the first assistant?

Not to mention the first assistant, even ordinary officials don't think about it. Saying goodbye to the old man and returning to his hometown, it was all a fluke, maybe Emperor Jiajing would send Xu Jie.
