Chapter 82: Well Come!
In the main hall is a large round table, on the round table there are all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and there are already seven or eight people sitting at the table, all of whom seem to be the high-level leaders of the Giant Whale Gang Wuqing Dividing the Rudder. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ info On the first seat sat an elegant man wearing a jade crown and a green robe, the man was about forty years old, quite generous, presumably he was Chen Tianyu, the helmsman of the Giant Whale Gang Wuqing.
Seeing Qin Shuhuai, Chen Tianyu immediately got up and said with a smile, "Lord Qin Xiang's arrival really makes the contemptible gang shine!"
Qin Shuhuai also greeted him, "Master Chen Helm is polite, I take the liberty to disturb you, and I hope that Lord Chen Helm will not blame you." β
Chen Tianyu smiled, "Where, where." Then he glanced at Sun Chengzong again and said, "Who is this old gentleman?"
Sun Chengzong smiled quite heroically, and arched his hand with full of anger, and said, "In Xia Sun Dazong, the steward of Qinglong Hall is also." β
Chen Tianyu said politely, "Sun is in charge." β
Then he took Qin Shuhuai's hand and invited him to sit beside him.
The feast begins.
According to the rules, it is impolite to talk about things as soon as you sit down, so everyone staggered, drank heartily, and there was a harmony between the guests and hosts, and soon the wine passed three rounds.
Putting down a glass of wine, Chen Tianyu asked first, "Lord Qin Xiang came this time, I don't know what you are doing?"
Qin Shuhuai chuckled and said, "It's not a secret, I was entrusted by the helper to talk to Chen Duo about a deal." β
Chen Tianyu also smiled faintly and said, "What kind of business?"
Qin Shuhuai said, "We want to sell the wharf around Lizhuang to your gang, as for the price, it's easy to discuss, as long as your gang can feel the good heart of our gang." β
Sun Chengzong smiled slightly, and said in his heart that this kid still acted well. Let's talk about Li Zhuang first, this is the strategy they set last night.
Chen Tianyu was slightly shocked in his heart, this sudden gift caught him a little off guard.
The River Gang, which has been expanding wildly in recent years, wants to sell its land? This is unexpected.
As an old Jianghu, Chen Tianyu was naturally not so naΓ―ve as to really think that the Jianghe Gang wanted to curry favor with himself by selling some land to him cheaply.
So what is their purpose?
I didn't figure it out after thinking about it for a long time, but one thing was clear to him. Now that the Giant Whale Gang and the Cao Gang are heavily armed in the Wuqing and Jinmen areas, even if they get all the docks in the Lizhuang area, it is impossible to divide their troops to guard them. At this time, divide the troops to lengthen your own battle line, aren't you waiting for the Cao Gang to break them one by one?
So he shook his head and said, "I have helped you understand the kindness of your gang." However, I believe that Lord Qin Xiang also knows that our gang and the Cao gang have been heavily armed on the front line of Wuqing and Jinmen, and they have been facing each other for a long time, and they really don't have the extra energy to take over these docks. After a pause, he added, "However, if your gang needs money, I can help you a little bit, and it also shows that I am good friends!"
This additional sentence is actually a test of the true intention of the Jianghe Gang to sell the land.
Qin Shuhuai sighed and said, "Don't hide it, I helped sell the wharf around Lizhuang, not because I was short of money, but because I was ......."
looks like he wants to speak and stops.
Sun Chengzong immediately took over the conversation and said, "It's because the Cao Gang has already proposed to buy this land, and they have to give a reply within two days." Our gang is now in a dilemma. If you sell it to the Cao Gang, you will offend the Gui Gang. If he doesn't sell it, the Cao Gang's intention to take Li Zhuang is extremely resolute, and if our gang fights with him, it will definitely suffer heavy losses!"
Chen Tianyu was shocked when he heard this. If the territory around Lizhuang falls into the hands of the Cao Gang, then this matter will be a big deal!
Originally, in the area of Wuqing and Jinmen, the Cao Gang controlled the wharf on the south bank of the canal, and the Giant Whale Gang controlled the wharf on the north bank, and the two sides were evenly matched. And Lizhuang is on the north bank of the canal, and it is only less than 100 miles away from Wuqing. If the Cao Gang gets Li Zhuang, then they can send troops from Li Zhuang and the south bank at the same time to attack the Giant Whale Gang on both sides, so that the Giant Whale Gang will be dangerous.
This is absolutely not a no-go!
Chen Tianyu immediately said, "Lord Qin Xiang, the territory around Li Zhuang must not be sold to the Cao Gang!"
Qin Shuhuai nodded and said, "Well, then you want to buy it?"
Chen Tianyu smiled bitterly, "Even if I buy it, I definitely can't divide the troops to garrison it!"
Sun Chengzong lost no time in snorting coldly and said, "The Gui Gang doesn't buy it, and we are not allowed to sell it to the Cao Gang, this is a bit overbearing!"
Qin Shuhuai looked at Sun Chengzong's serious expression and almost laughed.
Sun Chengzong continued to sing his black face and said, "Master Chen, the old man is a straight man, so let's tell you the truth." Now our gang, your gang and the Cao gang are like three kingdoms, and if any two parties fight fiercely, only the third party will benefit. If the Cao Gang wants to get Li Zhuang, they originally just wanted to get a springboard to attack your gang, and if our gang defends desperately, it will become a fool who guards the door for your gang. That's it, when the time comes, our gang and the Cao gang will both lose and lose, and your gang will still be able to reap the profits of the fishermen! Our gang will not only guard the door for your gang, but also give the profits of the fishermen that should belong to our gang to your gang.
Qin Shuhuai waited for Sun Chengzong to speak, and said lightly, "Master Chen, Steward Sun speaks more straightforwardly, and I also invite you Haihan." However, Li Zhuang and my Jianghe Gang will definitely not defend it, and if you don't want it, then you can only sell it to the Cao Gang. But for my Jianghe Gang, this big battle is better to let your gang win than let the Cao Gang win. After all, the power of the Cao Gang is too great, and if something happens to your gang, my Jianghe Gang will also be cold. Therefore, when I came this time, I asked you what you mean, if your gang intends to take over Li Zhuang, then my gang can give it to you immediately. That's all I can do. β
The atmosphere suddenly fell to the freezing point, and both sides were silent.
Chen Tianyu's brows were twisted into a rope.
He is well aware of the importance of Li Zhuang. But the problem now is that he has no soldiers to defend it, and the Jianghe Gang has made it very clear that he will definitely not defend Li Zhuang as a wronged leader.
But Li Zhuang must not fall into the hands of the Cao Gang, no matter what, it is necessary to say that the Jianghe Gang will defend Li Zhuang for himself.
Qin Shuhuai and Sun Chengzong quietly glanced at each other, and a smug smile appeared on each other's faces.
The two sang and harmonized, and finally did enough foreplay. Now there is no need for them to bring up the matter of the alliance.
Sure enough, after being silent for a while, Chen Tianyu smiled stubbornly and said, "Just now, Lord Qin Xiang proposed the matter of the establishment of the Three Kingdoms, and I also thought it was true. The Cao Gang is now like the ambitious Cao Cao, who is bound to want to unify Cao Yun. If my Giant Whale Gang and your Gang continue to fight separately, I'm afraid they will be divided and wiped out sooner or later!"
Qin Shuhuai knew that what he wanted was coming.
However, his face was still indifferent, and he nodded slightly, "What Lord Chen said is extremely true. β
Chen Tianyu continued, "For the sake of today's plan, I think that only when the two gangs join forces to fight against Cao can we stop the ambitions of the Cao Gang. β
Qin Shuhuai made a thoughtful look and said, "What Lord Chen Helm said makes sense." It's just that the matter of this alliance is very important, does Master Chen have a specific charter? β
Chen Tianyu thought for a while and said, "The alliance between our two gangs should start with the battle between Wuqing and Jinmen! Now the Cao Gang has coveted these two places for a long time, if these two places are lost, the upper can attack your gang, and the lower can attack our gang, which is a big trouble for us! Therefore, expelling the Cao Gang from Wuqing and Jinmen is the common top priority of our two gangs, what does Lord Qin Xiang think?"
Chen Tianyu's intention is very clear, that is, he wants to pull the Jianghe Gang into the water and participate in this big war, so that no one can think about the fisherman's profit, and the Jianghe Gang can still be optimistic about Li Zhuang for themselves.
Qin Shuhuai laughed in his heart, it's a good time!
