Back Off, Let Me Come

Shen Tang deliberately kept Wu Yuan in the dark for two days.

Wu Yuan was forced to take the initiative to come to the door.

Of course, he took Gu Chi's route first.

The gifts prepared this time are staggeringly rich.

Gu Chi had already received instructions from Shen Tang and calmly accepted Wu Yuan's gift. In addition to Wu Yuan and Gong Cheng, there are two maids on this trip. Wu Yuan followed his promise and took them to the house with a lot of money to apologize. Gu Chi accepted the gift but his attitude was very cold.

The two women came forward and bowed and apologized, but he drove them out.

Seeing this, Wu Yuan could only wink and ask them to step back, so as not to offend Gu Chi: "Sir, please have mercy on Bei Mo."

He is a flexible person.

Even if Gu Chi scolded him to "get lost" on New Year's Eve, Wu Yuan could still pretend that the incident never happened, and used the excuse of "the maid's rude collision" to visit Gu Chi to apologize. But his real purpose was to bribe Gu Chi and help speed up the progress.

Gu Chi: "Why does the Northern Desert need mercy from a sick man?"

Wu Yuan smiled bitterly: "How do you not know the current situation in the Northern Desert, sir? Lord Kang has reduced trade between the two places, and many tribes in the Northern Desert have been affected. The big tribes are better off, and have a deep foundation to survive, but the small tribes are not so lucky. Nowadays, During this season, more ordinary people are suffering from cold and hunger. If the situation cannot be controlled, when spring comes, the situation in the country will probably be uncontrollable..."

What he said was pitiful.

What he said was both a threat and a threat.

Shen Tang was afraid of the Northern Desert, so he strangled the trade in the Northern Desert, causing many tribes in the Northern Desert to lack supplies. The winter in the Northern Desert is relatively long, and many ordinary people cannot survive this period. The grief and anger that had been accumulated for a long time could not be vented. In order to survive, the tribesmen would ignore the royal court's idea of ​​peace and insist on sending troops to plunder. Local wars in the two places rekindled.

This is something neither party wants to see.

If Shen Tang hadn't forced people to a dead end, why would this have happened?

Kang State was newly established and needed to rest and recuperate.

The Northern Desert doesn't want to start a war either.

As long as each takes a step back, the two places will be able to live in peace!

This is a win-win situation.

Wu Yuan put a high hat on Gu Chi: "Sir, you are a close confidant of Lord Kang. If you are willing to report to Lord Kang and explain the relationship of interest, then if you are as open-minded as she is, you will also consider this matter. It will be beneficial to the people of Beimo, but it will not benefit the people of Kang." It’s better for the people.”

They were also willing to buy Shen Tang's grain seeds at a high price. With this amount of money, wouldn’t it be possible to be more comfortable in the early days of the founding of the People’s Republic of China?

Wu Yuan even revealed that the price can be negotiated.

Gu Chi sneered and said, "This is not like you."

The negotiations between the two parties are psychological warfare.

Only by grasping the opponent's psychology can you gain the biggest bargaining chip, but Wu Yuan seems to be a reckless idiot, blowing his own bottom line and taking the initiative to give away profits. Do you dare to say that there is nothing fishy in this? The more diligent and proactive Beimo is, the more it appears that there is something wrong with the cooperation proposed by Beimo.

"Mr., you still have an insight into people's hearts." Wu Yuan simply laid out his ambition, "To be honest with you, sir, if Wu can really promote the exchange of trade between the two countries and buy Kang's high-yielding grain seeds, the prestige gained will be enough to surpass other countries." Brother. In the Northern Desert, Wu Mou has the final say on the next generation. How can people not be moved by this? This matter is related to the future throne. Compared with the throne, why not give up some benefits to friendly countries? If this matter comes to pass, , Wu is willing to establish a permanent friendship with Kang State and help each other."

All he had to do was tell Gu Chi that it was not him who paid for the grain seeds, so why was he feeling so distressed? Only if this thing is accomplished, the credit will be his. This time I am really sincere!

Gu Chi was noncommittal about this.

But for the sake of this generous gift, I am also willing to say a few words to Wu Yuan. Wu Yuan got the answer and smiled all over his face.

He just calmed down the moment he stepped out of the tent.

As everyone knows——

The same goes for Gu Chi.

He pushed aside the pile of gifts with his hands and knocked for a while.

10% will be kept and 30% will be packed and sent out.

The remaining 60% was sent to Shen Tang.

Not surprisingly, they acted like they were running away from home.

Shen Tang was not surprised by this scene.

What she cares about is——

"Wu Yuan is a very generous boy. He spent a lot of money to bribe you. But why did you only give me 60%? If it weren't for your lord and I left him alone, how could he have given you so much? Bribery is illegal income. No matter what, I should give it 70%!"

Give her 70%, and the remaining 30% will be considered his innocent income.

Gu Chi said: "Chi also needs to save some savings."

He doesn't have any wealth at his age, so he's not decent.

Shen Tang curled his lips and muttered: "Save some savings? You're single... Forget it, there's no point in worrying about this. It's the same as scraping some more flesh off Wu Yuan's body to settle the account later. I'll see you tomorrow. Give him a taste of something sweet."

It's not a problem if you leave it dry all the time.

With Gong Cheng's strength, who knows if he has been "wandering around" and "checking out places" during this period. She has to bear the risk by keeping such a group of people in her main camp. Some things are difficult to deal with, so it’s better to send people away quickly.

Shen Tang left two Wenqi incarnations to work overtime.

My true self went out to eat after eating.

I was a little full from the late night snack just now.

Unconsciously, I wandered a bit out of the way.

Shen Tang paused and looked in a certain direction: "Come out and be sneaky, and you won't be afraid of being treated as an assassin."

A young figure walked out of the darkness.

It was none other than Gong Cheng and Gong Yunchi.

The latter was still dressed in simple and elegant clothes, with the ever-changing silence on his face. He stopped two feet away from Shen Tang. Seeing that Shen Tang went out without even a personal guard, he disapproved and said: "Gentleman How can Lord Kang know if he doesn't build a dangerous wall?"

"How can I be killed in my own camp?" After a short walk, she noticed someone peeping in the dark, but the other person had no killing intention. She wanted to know how long the other person could hold it in, pretending not to know, but unexpectedly Gong Cheng really kept his composure, "Besides, not to mention this camp, every inch of land in Kang State is mine. Since they are all mine, why bother threatening the wall?"

Gong Cheng still stood there and said nothing.

Shen Tang said: "Speaking of it, what's the matter?"

Gong Cheng had no problem following him, but he had no intention of taking action. He must have something to ask for. It won't be a reminiscence anyway.

"Are you familiar with Gong Xiqiu?"

Shen Tang did not expect to hear the name of his confidant from Gong Cheng. He glanced at Gong Cheng up and down, guessing the other party's purpose, and said: "I am very familiar with him. Are you here for him? He is with You probably don’t have any grudges. You can’t seek revenge from him for the battle at Xiaocheng, right?”

Xiaocheng was indeed captured by Gong Xichou, but he was a general and he was only following orders when he attacked the city. And Gong Cheng was not from Xiaocheng, so why seek revenge on him? If you really want to seek revenge, you can go to the royal family of King Xin - if the royal family is still alive, or go to Zheng Qiao's grave, dig out his body, whip it and trample it.

Unexpectedly, Gong Cheng nodded.

"Yes and no."

Seeking revenge is true, but it is not about fighting for Xiaocheng.

Hearing this, Shen Tang decisively refused: "Since you know that I have a good relationship with Gong Xiqiu, you should also know that I will not betray any of my own people. Of course, I don't know where he is now. How can such a big living person stay in one place forever? .”

Gong Cheng: "I heard that Gong Xiqiu has a younger sister."

Shen Tang laughed and sneered: "So what? Gong Xichou has a grudge against you. If you go to fight with him and use an ordinary female prostitute as a threat, are you still the same Gong Yunchi as before? Sorry, before Gong Xichou left, Entrust his sister to me, and I will ensure her safety regardless of emotion or reason. If you want to kill someone, you need to go through me first. Are you sure you want to die here?"

Gong Cheng has received the [Enlightenment of Enlightenment] and is very strong, but he also becomes stronger when encountering strength. The upper limit is unknown. If he really wants to take action, who will be the first to burp his ass to meet the King of Hell is still in doubt. What's more, this is her base camp. Why should people fight alone when they can be solved in a group fight?

"I have no grudge against Gongxi, it's just that someone wants his life." Gong Cheng's dark eyes were unmoved, as if it had nothing to do with him, "To be precise, he wants the lives of the entire Gongxi clan. Anyone with this surname All will be killed."

Shen Tang frowned: "Why?"

Second question: "Who is it?"

Then came a more pointed question: "Could he be the person who used [Daigo Initiation] to pass on his lifelong strength to you?"

Gong Chengcheng suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Shen Tang. There was finally a wave of emotion in his eyes. Shen Tang pretended to be profound: "What's so difficult about guessing this level? You were deposed from the Dan Mansion back then, and you were supposed to have nothing to do with martial arts in your life, but... In just a few years, you have developed profound cultivation that I can't even see through. Isn't the progress of your reconstruction too fast? A brief guess will tell that there is something wrong with your strength."

The waves in Gong Cheng's eyes calmed down again.

He quietly admitted: "You are right."

Gong Cheng accepted the gift from the other party, and in return he helped the other party slaughter all the Gongxi clan. But he used Wu Yuan's connections to investigate, and found that the Gongxi clan had been exterminated. There is no need for Gong Cheng to do it himself, so he has fulfilled his promise.

Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he discovered that Gong Xiqiu was also from the Gongxi clan. He and Shen Tang were not acquainted with each other. Judging from the intelligence, this guy also took in a younger sister and is now living in Xiaocheng. That is, the territory of Shen Youli, the leader of Kang State.

Gong Cheng let Gong Xi Lai go, not wanting to embarrass an ordinary female family member, but Gong Xi Qiu had to die. However, after Gong Xiqiu left his troops, he wandered around alone all day long. Gong Cheng couldn't find anyone even if he wanted to look for him, so he had no choice but to look for Shen Tang.

"If Lord Kang can contact Gong Xichou, he will ask him to come to the North Desert to find me and fulfill this long-cherished wish. One-on-one, we can resolve the matter fairly and equitably. As for Gong Xi Lai, no matter which family she marries in the future, she will be considered as divorced. I can’t touch the Gongxi clan.”

Shen Tang: "..."

Hahaha, why don't you kill Gong Xilai?

Even if he wants to kill, he is not a decoration.

"If I can get in touch, I will tell him about this." Shen Tang agreed and then asked, "I just don't know what grudges the person who taught you [Daihu Initiation] has against the Gongxi clan? As far as I know, the Gongxi clan He has been hiding from the world."

Gong Cheng didn't hide anything.

"He was deceived by the Gongxi clan, and was seriously injured by a man named Jimo Xing and was on the verge of death. He was trapped in a place and could not get out. Seeing that his life span was about to run out, I happened to appear, and he gave me all his secret knowledge. "There is no such thing as a pie in the sky. After Gong Cheng accepted this "legacy", he had to abide by the other party's last wish, "Before he died, he asked me to swear on my courage that I would do two things for him, one of which is Destroy the Gongxi clan."

Shen Tang guessed that the other incident should be related to Bei Mo, and asked: "Isn't this logically wrong? The Gongxi clan deceived him, and it was just deception, but the person who seriously injured and trapped him was the one named Jimo Xing. Why not let him Are you going to kill Jimo Xing?"

Does what Jimo did have anything to do with Gongxi?

Gong Cheng said: "Jimo Xing is dead. This person seriously injured him, and he did not benefit from it. His level has declined, and his longevity is inevitable. It's a pity that his ashes were not found."

"That doesn't mean you can destroy the human race."

Gong Cheng said: "Jimo Xing, formerly known as Gongxi Xing. The Gongxi clan has a custom that if a clan member is selected as the high priest of the clan, his surname must be changed to Jimo. Therefore, this matter was done by the ancestors of the Gongxi clan from beginning to end. , not considered innocent."

Shen Tang: "..."

I clicked my tongue in my heart——

This guy named Jimo Xing didn't know how to eradicate the problem. He died, but his enemy survived. This leaves a problem for the Gongxi tribe. Gong Cheng is not easy to kill.

Shen Tang lowered his eyes and restrained his calculations.

Sighing: "I didn't expect it to be a feud between our ancestors."

Gong Cheng is now fighting for Bei Mo. Gong Xi Qiu beats him, isn't it just to help him contain Bei Mo's high-end combat power? However, Gong Cheng is now cheating, and Gong Xiqiu is facing him now, and the chance of winning one on one is hard to say. Shen Tang wanted to drag him until Gongxiqiu found his eldest brother and nephew who had never seen the dragon before he could see his tail, and then the family of three would come out to fight, and the chance of winning would be certain.

Wouldn't it be too shameless to fight three against one?

This is going to annihilate the entire clan, so who cares about this?

Promised again: "I will convey it to you."

Naturally, Gong Cheng didn't know what Shen Tang was planning. He cupped his fists and thanked her, then planned to leave. As soon as he turned around, he heard a strong wind coming from his ears. He raised his hand and grabbed a wine jar. Gong Cheng looked at Shen Tang confused: "What does this mean?"

"I'll give you a drink. Along the way, many old friends have left, scattered, and died. It's rare to see you, so I want to buy you a drink. It can be regarded as my apology for deceiving you back then." Shen Tang said, "But I didn't mean to hide it."

Gong Cheng shook his head: "It's all over."

He didn't care about it.

Shen Tang's identity has never been important.

"Master Kang, take your leave."

Gong Cheng accepted Shen Tang's wine.

Shen Tang: "There is also the matter of Wu Yuan..."

Gong Cheng didn't look back: "It has nothing to do with me."

Politicians are best at conspiracy.

He talks lies in his mouth, but there is not much truth in his heart. It was hard to tell what was true and what was false, and Shen Tang in front of him was the biggest politician in Kang State, telling lies all the time. If you want to find a breakthrough from yourself and plot against Wu Yuan and Bei Mo, you may be disappointed.

There was a gust of breeze, and Gong Cheng's figure was nowhere to be seen.

Shen Tang no longer had the leisure to take a walk.

Returning to the main camp, I assigned tasks to the two incarnations of Wenqi. I rolled up my beloved goose down quilt and lay down, sleeping dreamlessly until dawn.

At noon, Wu Yuan was summoned.

"Grain seeds can be sold, but not like this."

Wu Yuan thought that Shen Tang was dissatisfied with the price and was willing to give in another 10%, but Shen Tang waved his hand: "No, no, no, it's not about the price. Just ask - will the envoy use the eggs from a hen that lays eggs?" The price to sell to others? Eggs can be sold, but hens cannot. Of course, the price of eggs means that you can only buy eggs."

Wu Yuan asked her: "What about buying hens?"

Shen Tang: "It can only be a hen that has been slaughtered."
