"In other words, you want to use this money to bribe me, and you want me to give way and let you pass?" Li Xin said with a half-smile. "That's right." Fan Sanba nodded without thinking. "One and a half million taels of silver is neither too much nor too little." Li Xin thought for a while and suddenly said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Fan, you said that we brothers are here, although We are horse bandits, but we are also human beings! People always need to eat food! We don¡¯t have salt, cloth, ironware, etc., so don¡¯t we have to buy it from you? , you gave me the money, and then we returned the money to you. You didn't lose anything, but we suffered a big loss!" "This?" Fan Sanba was so angry that he almost spit out blood. , there is such an algorithm, are there any such stupid people in the world? But he soon understood that Li Xin understood the truth, but he was just asking for the sky-high price in Hong Kong. What a greedy and stupid person. Fan Sanba cursed secretly in his heart, but he did not dare to show the slightest anger on his face. "Every year, one thousand catties of salt, one thousand pieces of Sichuan brocade, thirty thousand shi of grain, one thousand catties of tea, and ten thousand catties of pig iron." Li Xin ignored Fan Sanba's surprised look and offered the price with a cold hum, and then coldly He hummed and said: "Don't tell me that these things are an astronomical figure to you eight great families. In fact, these things are just a drop in the bucket to you. And I don't ask for these things in vain. , 50% off, that is to say, you give half away first, and we will spend money to buy the remaining half. Shopkeeper Fan, if you agree to this, I, the evil wolf, will agree to your deal, and I will fight wherever you want me to in the future. "You, why don't you go and grab it!" Fan San's handsome face turned red with anger, and his eyes were full of anger. The Li Xin in front of him was so abominable. He actually offered such a price. This was no different from robbery. "Why, if I don't get out of the way of the trade route, you may suffer even greater losses." Li Xin said with a cold snort. "Aren't you afraid that the imperial army will come to surround you? Then you will get nothing." Fan Sanba sneered: "Your appetite is too big, aren't you afraid of overeating?" "I am a bad wolf. "My appetite has always been like this." Li Xin said disdainfully: "What's more, this is a grassland. Even if the imperial army comes, I will just hide. Don't you think the imperial army will stay on the grassland for a lifetime?" Will the imperial army come? Iron Pili has been roaming the grassland for more than ten years, but have you ever seen the imperial army come to annihilate him? The imperial court is now in the midst of internal and external troubles. There are slaves outside and rebels inside. Such a court will send Are there people coming? Although there are many soldiers and horses in Xuanfu, where is Xuanfu and how far away is it from the capital? Will soldiers and horses be sent out in such a place? " "You." It was only at this time that I felt Li Xin's shrewdness and insidiousness, but there was nothing I could do about it. And even if there was a way, it would be hard to say it in front of Li Xin at this time. "What? You don't believe it, or are you unwilling?" Li Xin said coldly, and the murderous intent in his eyes was undisguised, revealed from the mask. "This guy is a madman." Fan Sanba suddenly turned pale with fright, and there was fear in his eyes. He felt this kind of murderous intention clearly, and knew that if he objected, he would probably be killed by the evil man in front of him. Even though he was killed by the wolf, he didn't expect that this guy Li Xin would be so crazy and really wanted to kill him. "This matter is easy to discuss, easy to discuss." Fan Sanba swallowed involuntarily, and finally said: "It's just that this matter is of great importance. Although I am highly valued by my father, this matter is a matter for the eight aristocratic families. You have to go back and discuss it with the others. Please give the leader a few days' grace. Then I will give you five days. If there is no news, then I will ask you eight families to change. One way!" Li Xin said grimly: "I heard that Shanhaiguan is good. It might be closer if you take Shanhaiguan." "Yes, yes." Fan Sanba cursed in his heart. How could Shanhaiguan be so good? It's easy to leave. Although Xuanfu is important and Zhangjiakou is also an important military location, with hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses here, Shanhaiguan is even more extraordinary. It is only a few kilometers away from the capital. The cavalry can arrive in one day, and the soldiers and horses stationed there are simply difficult to bribe. How could the eight major aristocratic families give up on the already mature market of Zhangjiakou? "Well, in that case, you should go back first, and I will wait for your news here." Li Xin suddenly smiled, as if he had not gotten angry just now, and just heard him say: "I believe that the eight great families will make a choice , because if I wait to get it myself, I¡¯m afraid I¡¯ll get far more than that, and you¡¯ll lose even more.¡± Fan Sanba's expression changed when he heard this. After careful calculation, it was really like this. Although Li Xin extorted a lot, he always spent half the money to buy it. But once Li Xin was allowed to rob it by himself, not only would He would lose money, property, and even people, and the Eight Great Aristocratic Families couldn't afford to lose this person. From now on, unless Li Xin dies, this trade route will start again. Calculating it like this, the eight aristocratic families had lost countless things. Thinking about it, Fan Sanba felt that the Li Xin in front of him was probably much more merciful. "What the leader said is true. I just want to go back and report to my father and try to deliver all these things as soon as possible." When Fan Sanba thought of this, he didn't dare to stay here, so he quickly asked Li Xin to resign, and Pegasus came towards him. Zhangjiakou flew away. "My lord, have you really decided to accept their benefits?" At this time, Ju suddenly walked in and asked curiously. "Haha, who knew?" A strange look flashed across Li Xin's eyes. "It's ridiculous. It's disgusting." In the evening, Fan Sanba rushed into the Fan family's mansion and hurriedly told the story to his father. However, he saw Fan Yongdou's eyes bursting with anger and slapped him hard. He slapped it on the desk, and the sound of angry curses filled the entire study, obviously angry at Li Xin's shamelessness. But Fan Sanba stood carefully in front of Fan Yongdou, not daring to speak, and allowed Fan Yongdou to get angry. "You have also met Li Xin. What do you think of this person?" Fan Yongdou finally stopped and glanced at his son. Seeing his embarrassed appearance, he couldn't help but frown. "More difficult to deal with than Iron Pili, he is simply a lunatic." Fan Sanba thought about it carefully and couldn't help but said harshly. Immediately, he recounted everything he saw and heard in Perak Villa. "Yes, this person is different from Tie Pili. He is more difficult to deal with." Fan Yongdou's eyes flashed with a strange light and he said: "This kind of person must not stay on the grassland. Sooner or later, he will ruin our major affairs. "Father wants to get rid of him?" Fan Sanba was shocked. "Although Iron Thunderbolt is brave, he is not greedy. But this evil wolf is really a evil wolf and extremely greedy. If you give him one million taels today, he will ask you for another million taels tomorrow. His conditions are: He can't be satisfied. So this person must die." Fan Yongdou looked gloomy. "What about those things he wants?" Fan Sanba asked hesitantly. "Give, not only give, but also double." Fan Yongdou said without thinking, "I want to give him all for a year, so that he will have nothing to say in a short time." "Father. , this price?" Fan Sanba looked at Fan Yongdou in surprise. "I want to appease him for the time being. I have sent people to write to the court, asking the Xuanfu troops to come out and destroy Perak Villa. I have also sent people to spread rumors on the grassland, and ordered people to secretly gather all the horse bandits who are dissatisfied with Perak Villa. Together, I want to destroy Perak Villa in a short time." Fan Yongdou said proudly: "I want to tell others that the money from my eight major families is not so easy to get." "Then will the other major families agree. ?" Fan Sanba asked with some suspicion. "Yes, they will definitely agree." Fan Yongdou said without thinking: "Because only in this way, the loss will be the smallest, and the final gain will be the largest. Giving up temporarily is to get more. Evil wolf, Hum, this time I will turn you into a dead wolf. " Sure enough, just as Fan Yongdou said, early the next morning, hundreds of carriages and carriages from eight major families came out. City, heading towards the grassland. Some people staying in the horse market soon got the news that the new owner of Perak Villa on the grassland was very greedy and forced the eight major families to empty out their warehouses, just to reopen every business road and make everyone safe. appeared on the grassland. For a time, these merchants in the horse market were grateful to the eight aristocratic families. Some people even sold their goods to the eight major aristocratic families at low prices. In this way, the eight major aristocratic families also made money from this. Quite a bit, he finally reduced his losses. "Lord, the Fan family sent us something, and we did it all at night. It's a total of five hundred carts. I'm afraid we sent the things my lord asked for in multiples." In the big tent of Perak Villa, Jutu laughed loudly, There was joy on his face, and even Shen Fei had a smile on his face. The Li Xin in front of him was much stronger than Tie Pili. "Of course he will send it over, because he will soon be ready to deal with me." However, there was no trace of pride on Li Xin's face. Instead, he said coldly: "The Eight Great Families want to confuse me and make me do what I want." He became arrogant and arrogant due to everything in front of him and did not take precautions against them. Otherwise, would he have given me so many things? " "Then Lord, what should we do now?" Jutu said. Suddenly he realized it and said viciously: "These guys are really??Hateful, what should my lord do now? " "Huh, now that it's here, don't leave. Li Xin said disdainfully: "Go, Shen Fei, you lead a team of soldiers and horses, kill all these people, and just grab the things." Remember, don¡¯t kill those civilians. Hum, if all the servants of the Eight Great Aristocratic Families were killed, these people would have been loyal to the Eight Great Aristocratic Families. Even if they were sent to Yuan Zhi, they would probably still be loyal to the Eight Great Aristocratic Families. " "Yes, Lord. "Shen Fei marveled at Li Xin's shamelessness. He hasn't betrayed the covenant yet. It has only been a few days. In less than three days, Li Xin fell out as soon as he said he would. It is really unimaginable that once this matter spreads to the ears of the eight major families. What kind of result will the Lieutenant General have? However, isn't this what Shen Fei hopes?
