"Murong Fu, you are talking like a lion!" Emperor Hu De suddenly shouted, his face turned red, and he was obviously extremely angry. It is conceivable that if the person in front of him hadn't been extremely skilled in martial arts, and if it hadn't been for the Heaven and Earth Society, the situation would have been unbearable.
Optimistic, he must be unable to hold back and take action at this moment.
"Mr. Hu, please don't get excited. As the saying goes, 'ask for a price and pay back on the ground,' we can negotiate the price." Murong Fu said with a smile, without any hint of shame in his words.
No wonder, he has done this kind of thing countless times, and now this small battle is really not worth mentioning.
Emperor Hu De had a gloomy face and said nothing. The Heaven and Earth Society has always been living in a very tight situation. Let alone one million dan of food, even one hundred thousand dan is not something that can be easily obtained.
Yuan Chengzhi knew some of the situation of the Tiandihui and said with an embarrassed face, "Mr. Murong is telling you the truth. During this period, there was a problem with our food and grass transportation. There was a shortage of food and grass, and we couldn't produce any extra food. Can the conditions of Mr. Murong be changed?"
?”
Murong Fu's eyes flashed and he shook his head indifferently, "Brother Yuan, you know me well. Generally speaking, I will not change what I say. Allowing them to bargain is an exception. If you want me to change other conditions, I can't do it. If heaven and earth will
If you feel embarrassed, just don’t talk about it.”
"This..." Yuan Chengzhi looked slightly suffocated and was speechless for a moment.
Emperor Hu De snorted coldly and said in a cold tone, "It seems that Mr. Murong wants to kill the fish and break the net!"
Murong Fu shook his head in a funny way, "I think Captain Hu may have some misunderstanding about me. I agreed to the peace talks just because I didn't want to waste money in vain. It's not that I can't afford the expense. So Captain Hu, don't always resort to 'the fish is dead and the net is broken'"
He came to threaten me. Even if we start a war and the fish dies in the end, the net will never be broken. If the chief helmsman doesn't believe it, you can give it a try."
When Emperor Hu De heard this, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. This man was basically sure that Tiandi would give up the cause of resisting the Qing Dynasty and start a war with the Murong family, so he dared to speak loudly with confidence.
Murong Fu figured it out, but he couldn't see through Murong Fu's reality at all.
After a long silence, he sighed, "Mr. Murong, I am not afraid to tell you that the Heaven and Earth Society will indeed not choose to go to war with your Murong family unless it is absolutely necessary. But have you ever thought about it, rabbits will bite when cornered.
, maybe I am not qualified enough to fight the young master to the death, but I can still bite you a few holes."
"Murong Fu, we are also worried about food and grass. At this time, let alone one million shi of food, even one hundred thousand shi cannot be obtained. Please change the conditions." Wen Qingqing advised him at the right time.
Murong Fu ignored her and said to Emperor Hu De with a faint smile, "I heard that the Zheng family has been expropriating money in Taiwan over the years. They must be extremely rich. A mere million dan of grain is only a drop in the bucket."
"You...it turns out you are plotting against the Zheng family!" Emperor Hu De reacted immediately and couldn't help being shocked and angry.
But Yuan Chengzhi and Wen Qingqing stopped talking, and their expressions became very strange, with a hint of gloating about their misfortune.
Murong Fu spread his hands and said, "Anyway, I'll leave it here. No matter you give it or the Zheng family gives it, the Shenlong Sect will never retreat until it sees food. Whether you are rabbits or fish, we will just waste it like this. Look,
Whoever finishes playing first."
Although Emperor Hu De was angry, he had to admit that they must be the ones who finished first. Ever since Chen Jinnan took away most of the elites, the Heaven and Earth Society had suffered repeated defeats. It also dragged down the Golden Snake Camp and was almost driven out of Shandong. At the moment, Kangxi and Wu Sangui
There are signs of joining forces again, and the situation is extremely pessimistic. If the Murong family intervenes again at this time, it will be like adding insult to injury. The first to be destroyed will be the Tiandihui. Even if the Zheng family defeats the Shenlong Sect, they will not be able to control the Central Plains again.
Already.
After weighing for a long time, Emperor Hu De still tried to win over, "Mr. Murong, I can't make the decision with Prince Zheng. Do you think it can be like this? You retreat first, and I will write a letter to report the matter to the prince, and then the prince...
"
Before he finished speaking, Murong Fu suddenly sneered, "Isn't Commander Hu joking? If I retreat first, will Zheng Jing agree to my terms?"
Emperor Hu De was silent after hearing this. He didn't know his master's temperament. Even if he retreated his troops, even if his troops came to the city, he might not pay this money.
This is a very helpless thing. The Zheng family has almost no inheritance of Zheng Chenggong's fine qualities when it comes to Zheng Jing's generation. For many years, they have been extravagant and greedy for pleasure, so much so that they occupy a huge island of Taiwan, but they are unable to manage it well and their strength is weak.
The Ten Thousand Dragon Army frightened the Zheng family and had to recall Chen Jinnan urgently.
What is even more chilling is that since its establishment, Tiandihui has been self-sufficient and has never taken a penny or a grain of grain from the Zheng family. On the contrary, it has handed over a lot.
There was silence in the tent. Murong Fu waited for a while and became a little impatient. He stood up quickly and said, "Okay, please think about it slowly. I will not accompany you anymore and take my leave."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Emperor Hu De's expression changed drastically and he looked towards Yuan Chengzhi.
Yuan Chengzhi understood and said quickly, "Mr. Murong, please wait."
Murong Fu paused and said, "Is there anything else?"
Yuan Chengzhi smiled bitterly, "Mr. Murong, you just said that the price is negotiable. Look..."
What is the concept of one million stones of food? It is basically enough to feed an army of 200,000 people for more than half a year. This is indeed not a small amount. Even if you kill people, you have to see how much blood they can kill, right? He pondered for a long time.
Murong Fu said, "Eight hundred thousand stones cannot be less."
"One hundred thousand stones." Emperor Hu De said through gritted teeth. He finally chose to compromise, or in other words, he could only compromise.
Of course, he dared to make such a decision without going through the Zheng family, so he naturally made up his mind that even if the Zheng family did not provide the food and grass, he would raise enough on his own.
After that, there was a fierce bargaining between the two parties. Emperor Hu De was worthy of being a military advisor and think tank of the Tiandihui. He was also very good at bargaining. He actually reduced one million dan of grain to 300,000 dan.
For such a result, Murong Fu showed great dissatisfaction on his face, but he was very happy in his heart. God knew that he only wanted one hundred thousand dan, but he didn't expect that he would get an extra 200,000 dan for nothing. The price he paid was only
It's as simple as an order to retreat, it's like a robbery!
The most important thing is that if he withdraws his troops today, he can send troops again tomorrow. As for credibility... what is that? I've never heard of it.
However, Emperor Hu De was not stupid. After reading the terms of the agreement drawn up by Murong Fu, he immediately proposed that the food and grass would not be delivered until the Shenlong Army went north and participated in the battle against Wu or the Qing Dynasty.
Of course Murong Fu disagreed, and the two sides argued again. In the end, each took a step back and handed over 100,000 stones first, and then gave the rest after the Shenlong Army reached the conditions for withdrawal.
"One hundred thousand stones... is barely enough to support the Shenlong Army for two months." Murong Fu thought a little unhappily, and finally signed the agreement and wrote a withdrawal letter in front of everyone.
Order the letter to be stamped with his seal.
This letter will be delivered to the Shenlong Army by people from the Tiandihui, while the food and grass will be brought from nearby Taiwan by Chen Jinnan.
It was already late at night when everything was settled. Although it could not be said that everyone was happy, at least it was not the worst result. Yuan Chengzhi breathed a sigh of relief and sent someone to send Murong Fu to his residence to rest. This time, he seemed to be more thoughtful and did not let Wen Wen.
Instead of Qingqing, it was a tall man with a long beard who was called "Iron Arhat". Murong Fu could not say anything except being secretly depressed.
After burning a stick of incense, Iron Arhat brought Murong Fu to his residence and said respectfully, "Mr. Murong, are you satisfied with this tent? If not, let's find another one."
Murong Fu rolled his eyes, "No, that's it."
He really doesn't have that many requirements for a place to live.
"Okay, you can stay here. If you need anything, just ask the brothers outside and they will try their best to help you."
Murong Fu nodded and was about to enter the door when he suddenly stopped and turned his head to look east.
"What's wrong?" Iron Arhat asked in confusion.
Murong Fu didn't answer, and walked towards the east. He said he was walking, but he moved very fast, and the few flickers of his body disappeared into the night.
Tie Arhat's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly followed after a slight hesitation.
"Hmph, you bitch, who do you think you are? A mute, bitch slave. It's your blessing that I like you. I didn't expect you to be so ignorant and reject me again and again. Then
Don’t blame me for being rude!”
In a dimly lit grove, two figures, a man and a woman, were tugging and tugging. The man kept cursing and had a bit of a tongue in cheek. The woman seemed unable to speak and could only make anxious noises.
Ahhh, these two people were Feng Nandi and Little Mute whom Murong Fuxing had just met at the banquet.
It turns out that Feng Nandi has long been interested in the little mute. He had restrained himself somewhat due to his reputation and image, but tonight the little mute insulted him in public at the banquet, and there was another scene where Murong Fu called the little mute to stop him.
We had to take action in advance. The little mute was so pretty and charming, and Murong Fu was known for being romantic and lustful. How could we feel at ease if we didn't take care of the matter first?
Of course, although he is a lecherous person, he is not a brainless and reckless person. He came here drunk. In this way, even if the incident is exposed, it can be dismissed as "drunk immorality" and the loss of reputation can be minimized.
With a sizzling sound, the little mute couldn't struggle, and a large piece of his clothes was torn open, revealing the cute pink bellyband inside. His skin was snow-white, looming, and his figure was exquisite and very moving.
When Feng Nandi saw it, his eyes immediately turned red and he laughed ferociously, "Hahaha, okay, she is indeed the woman I like. She has a good face and a good body. Huh, originally I only planned to play.
Just for fun, now, I can consider taking you as my concubine. If you are wise, just obey me, otherwise you will suffer!"
After saying that, a hungry tiger pounced on the food.
The little mute was holding on to the tattered skirt of his clothes with one hand, while he was running away in panic, staggering and swaying. He almost fell into the hands of the wolf several times, but he managed to avoid it with narrow escapes.
"Hey, you still dare to run? When I catch you, I will cripple you!" Feng Nandi said with a lewd smile. Although he was a bit drunk, he did not forget that he knew martial arts. He suddenly raised his hand and a piece of
The pebbles were thrown out.
The little mute fell to the ground with a cry, and looked back at the rapidly approaching black shadow, his face full of helplessness and despair.
At this moment, a joking voice sounded, "How come I look so familiar? It turns out to be you."
When Feng Nandi heard this voice, his whole body froze, as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
The little mute was overjoyed, and following the sound, a figure slowly walked out from the shadows. Shengxue's white clothes seemed to glow, instantly driving away the darkness between heaven and earth. She had seen this person before, and it was at the dinner party.
The handsome man scared her so much that her hands and feet were cold, but at this moment, the man only gave her endless warmth.
Suddenly, she got up, bypassed Feng Nandi, ran towards the man desperately, and finally plunged into his arms.
Murong Fu was also shocked for a moment, but he quickly adapted to it. It is the right thing for a hero to save a beautiful woman and throw himself into his arms.
Naturally, he hugged the girl with his backhand, gently raised her chin, and took a closer look, "Wow, it looks like it, it really looks like it. I didn't expect to see Teacher Bo in this world. It's such a fate!"
He finally remembered why he felt that this face looked familiar. The corners of her eyebrows and eyes were strikingly similar to a certain famous actress he had seen in his previous life. This actress had many nicknames, but most people would call her her affectionately.
