Chapter 25: People's death plan is still there, Xuancheng Song Tianyuan
For Song Tianyuan, this intrigue was the most unsuccessful one in his life.
This is a game between wise men, even a bloodless war.
But in the end it turned out to be a dead end, and the end of the road was revealed, and the swords and weapons were facing each other.
And in the end he was defeated, a complete defeat.
All the strategies were planned by the opponent, and there was no way to fight back.
Even though he finally felt that he was at the end of his rope and used the most hidden force to intercept and kill Zhuang Ming in order to reverse the situation, he was still plotted by Zhuang Ming.
Song Tianyuan has always been conceited, but fell into traps everywhere, which made him feel extremely bitter.
However, for Zhuang Ming, this was nothing more than another setback in his mundane world, but he did not fall down. He crossed over again and was able to move on.
"The victory has been decided, and I am the loser."
Song Tianyuan said: "I can tell you, but you have to let me go first so that I can be safe, and then I will leave you a message."
Zhuang Ming looked calm and said: "You can't trust me, and I can't trust you, Song Tianyuan, I told you, you have no choice."
Song Tianyuan fell silent.
Zhuang Ming said slowly: "You are no match for me even when you are alive. Do you want to defeat me with your arrangements after death? To say the least, even if my Zhuang Company collapses, you will not be able to see it after death, and you will not be able to see it after death.
There will be no benefit to you in the end either."
Song Tianyuan nodded and said: "Yes, no matter what plans I leave behind, no matter how much losses your Zhuang's Trading Company suffers, I will not be able to benefit from it after my death, let alone see it."
At this point, he smiled bitterly, mocking himself a little, and said: "As you said, I did leave a backup plan, and I will continue to carry out even if I die. Although I never thought that I would fall here, or even
At first, I only considered defeating you and then using subsequent measures to defeat you, rather than killing you right now..."
Zhuang Ming said calmly: "What method?"
Song Tianyuan was slightly silent, as if a trace of hesitation flashed in his heart.
He still hesitated.
He didn't believe Zhuang Ming.
But I have to believe it.
Even if you believe it, life or death is still uncertain.
If you don't believe it, you will definitely die.
"Over the years, you have made a lot of money and developed such a strong business. You have offended a lot of people."
Song Tianyuan said: "In the past two years, you have expanded your business and got involved in all walks of life, and this year it is not only involved in the cloth merchant industry, but also in the salt merchant industry. You spent a lot of money to obtain the qualification of a salt merchant. In order to protect your own interests, you secretly helped the government
, and eliminated many illegal salt sellers..."
Zhuang Ming looked calm and thought a little.
Throughout the history of the Dongsheng Dynasty, it was originally a salt and iron official camp, but thirty years ago, when the late emperor was in power, the situation was turbulent and many things have changed.
According to the current situation, salt merchants are also a stable business with considerable profits, but the taxes are heavier.
Those who sell illegal salt evade taxes and make greater profits. This will have a price impact on serious salt merchants like him, which will cause great harm to their interests.
But he also knows that anyone who dares to sell large quantities of illegal salt in Dongsheng must have a big shot behind him because the benefits are too huge.
Therefore, he did not take the lead, but secretly helped the government, spread the news secretly, and used the government's help to destroy many gangs and trading houses that sold illegal salt.
Moreover, during this period, he also ordered people to keep his tail in check, and no traces of Zhuang's Trading Company were exposed.
"No matter how careful your planning is, there will always be traces left behind."
Song Tianyuan said: "It may be difficult for ordinary people to detect it, but I, Song Tianyuan, went to check it myself and found traces and obtained evidence."
Zhuang Ming pondered: "Did you hand over the evidence you obtained to the person behind it?"
Song Tianyuan said slowly: "The method of killing people with a borrowed knife is also my follow-up plan."
Speaking of this, Song Tianyuan said again: "You know that I am in the capital, working for the seventh prince, and have contacts with that king with a different surname. Now he knows about you and hates you to the bone. Moreover, in a few days,
, he will receive the emperor's holy order and come to Huai'an to take office, and will become the most powerful person in the Sixteenth House of Huai'an, taking charge of the general situation and covering the sky with one hand."
Zhuang Ming remained silent.
Shuang Ling didn't quite understand it yet.
However, Bai Lao's expression changed and he felt worried.
People who engage in business have always had to deal with officials.
Over the years, Zhuang's trading firm has grown, and I don't know how many benefits it has given to the officials of the Sixteenth Prefecture of Huai'an.
And if next, the most powerful person in the Sixteenth House of Huai'an has already harbored a grudge against Zhuang's Trading Company, then Zhuang's Trading Company will be in an extremely dangerous situation.
As a result, even those officials who had benefited from Zhuang's Trading Company in the past would probably act on Zhuang's Trading Company under the instructions of this senior official and would not dare to disobey.
If we were to attack merchants at the government level, in this vast world, which commercial firm could stop us?
Wouldn't this cut off the lifeblood?
"anything else?"
Zhuang Ming looked calm and asked.
Song Tianyuan breathed out, with a strange look on his face, and said: "Your clever plan for the city is far beyond my expectation. Those other plans can be solved with just a flip of your hand. Of course, if it were me this time
If you can succeed and Zhuang's trading company is defeated, then all the subsequent plans, if I personally execute them, are your reminders and can completely defeat you. Unfortunately, I have been defeated this time. Among the subsequent methods, this is the only one.
Only then can I threaten you."
Zhuang Ming said slowly: "You don't want to mention other plans, but let me wait for your attack? Does this mean that up to this moment, you still have something to hide?"
When Song Tianyuan heard this, his heart skipped a beat and he was about to continue speaking.
Zhuang Ming said again: "In this case, can I think that your words are not complete and untrue?"
Song Tianyuan's pupils shrank, and a sense of crisis suddenly arose in his heart.
Puff!
Severe chest pain!
The bloody tip of the knife emerged from his chest.
"You..." Song Tianyuan opened his mouth, and the blood in his chest couldn't stop rising. He looked at Zhuang Ming with tears in his eyes.
"I said I would consider sparing you." Zhuang Ming said calmly: "Now that I have considered it, I won't spare you."
"Despicable..." Song Tianyuan gritted his teeth tightly and held back the blood that surged from his throat.
"To take a step back, even if I decide to spare you, it's not me who kills you now, it's just that my men won't spare you." Zhuang Ming moved closer and said softly: "Also, I can kill you in six years
, started from scratch and became the richest man in the Sixteenth House of Huai'an, relying on honest management, but that is only limited to the business field. In the dark place where blood cannot be seen, I rely more on conspiracy, my ruthlessness, and you.
It's despicable and shameless, but I'm more ruthless than you think, and all the enemies who have seen me break my promise are already dead... Now, there is another Xuancheng Song Tianyuan."
"As expected..." Song Tianyuan felt cold all over his body, but it was not as cold as the cold in his heart. He laughed miserably and said: "To be able to create such a huge force in the Sixteenth Prefecture of Huai'an in just six years.
How can a person be so kind and soft-hearted?"
"Don't underestimate yourself. Between life and death, the desire to survive is human nature." Zhuang Ming said: "No one is willing to let go of the life-saving straw, even if it looks very fragile. This is the same for everyone..."
"If...one more time...I..." Song Tianyuan's voice gradually became lower and weaker. He gasped: "I will not...be careless...nor...defeat!"
"I know." Zhuang Ming said seriously: "I don't think I am smarter than you. If you are also lying in a wheelchair, maybe you are thinking of a higher strategy than me."
"I did consider sparing you just now, but the level of consideration was not whether you told the truth, but your ability and character."
"If you weren't so fearsome and I looked down upon you, I might consider letting you go or subduing you."
"But your scheme is too vicious and your character is too cruel. I can't let you go. And as you said just now, I dare not let you go, because this is no less than letting the tiger return to the mountain."
"I don't dare to conquer you, because it is no less than raising a tiger to cause trouble."
"So, you can go in peace."
As Zhuang Ming's voice fell.
The knife that penetrated Song Tianyuan's chest was pushed forward one foot again.
Song Tianyuan screamed, but then he opened his mouth to laugh, his mouth was full of blood, it was hideous and terrifying.
"The power of the king is like the law of God's power. No matter how clever you are, you are still a businessman and cannot survive this disaster."
"After you die, it's my business, don't bother me." Zhuang Ming said calmly.
"Zhuang Ming... on the road to Huangquan, I... will be waiting for you..." Song Tianyuan's breathing gradually weakened.
"You can't wait for me."
Zhuang Ming looked as usual.
At this moment, the sharp blade in front of Song Tianyuan suddenly flipped.
The blade moved horizontally to the left and then cut out.
Cut Song Tianyuan's heart in half!
This so-called wise and profound strategist was ultimately no match for a steel knife.
"Son..."
Liu Quan looked over, pointing the blade at Song Tianyuan's men with a questioning expression.
Zhuang Ming stretched out his hand to push away Song Tianyuan's body, and looked at the people who blocked the way to kill him, with a cold look on his face.
"Mr. Thirteen, spare your life!"
"I am an old man and a young man, but in order to support my family and earn some money from the Song family, I worked for the tiger."
"I hope Mr. Thirteen will have mercy!"
The first person knelt down and cried bitterly.
Upon seeing this, half of the others immediately abandoned their swords and fell to the ground to beg for mercy.
Zhuang Ming laughed and said slowly: "What's the difference?"
He patted his clothes and said: "Whether you are loyal to Song Tianyuan or Yinliang, there is no difference to me. After all, you are here to kill me, it is not fake. People always have to make their own decisions
If you pay the price, like Song Tianyuan, he will be dead..."
After he finished speaking, he waved his hand lightly.
