Careerist in Qin Dynasty

Chapter 18 Negotiation Method
After finally using the prestige of the young master of Lu Qiuge to temporarily suppress the commotion of the caravan disciples, in the following high-level meeting, Xu Sheng punched the carriage carriage:

"This can't continue like this. The caravan has stopped moving forward. The enemies wandering in the darkness must be eradicated!"

"The disciples are very frustrated and panicked right now, but compared to this, I'm more curious about this." Zhou Wen looked directly at Xu Sheng, without looking like he was a subordinate at all:
"Qi State is the base camp of our farmers. As we are traveling as a caravan from Yan State this time, disciples from nearby branches should take the initiative to contact us every day to reduce possible misunderstandings and fulfill our responsibilities as landlords! "

"But why have I never seen these people once? As the young master of Luqiuge, you should have known something was wrong at the first time, why didn't you tell everyone!"

Under Zhou Wen's words, Lu Wei and Sang Lin looked at Xu Sheng who looked embarrassed.

"I didn't inform this side." Xu Sheng turned his head and said, "The peasant disciples in Qi didn't know we were coming."

"This is impossible!" Zhou Wen refuted this statement loudly: "Even if you are stupid and don't notify us, the scale of the caravan is so large, and we are taking a trade route that has never changed for decades. It is natural to be responsible for the branch here. We will also take the initiative to investigate!"

"The current situation is obviously your own fault! What secrets does this caravan hide? You must tell them before we can find ways to solve them."

"Do you think I want to do this?" Xu Sheng also loudly stopped Zhou Wen from continuing. His eyes were red and he glanced at the three of them:

"I am nominally the commander-in-chief of this caravan, but I know nothing except Lu Wei. You Zhou Wen and Sang Lin don't know anything either!"

"?" When mentioning his name, Lu Wei remained silent decisively. He could see that the three of them did have problems, but it seemed that things were more troublesome than imagined?

"Xia Kui, Yan Chunjun, Prince Dan all stuffed their things in, as well as Gonggongtang represented by Zhou Wen, and Yan Wangxi represented by Sang Lin. We set off from Jicheng. Every force knows when the caravan will arrive. It will appear somewhere, but they can’t let anyone else know that they know!”

"I want to hide all the secrets for everyone, and at the same time I have to worry about the life and death of the entire caravan. I seem to know a little bit about everything, but I dare not find out anything in depth!"

Xu Sheng's current mood is very crazy, and he is not as capable and elegant as when he met Lu Weigang.

This seemed to make Lu Wei and the other three people feel compassion. Zhou Wen touched Xu Sheng's shoulders and said in a much calmer tone: "I'm not forcing you. Now, resolving the current conflict is the most important thing. As long as we arrive in Chu State, I will Will leave the caravan.”

"Me too. Although we have different identities, we have the same purpose. After arriving in Chu State, I will leave with the same thing!" Sang Lin touched Xu Sheng's other shoulder and made a promise together.

Lu Wei stayed aside and watched the drama, feeling like an outsider for a moment~

"Okay!" Xu Sheng looked up again and his mood improved a lot: "In that case, let's deal with the killer in the dark first. We have maintained our friendship for such a long time, and it is not impossible to maintain it for a while longer!"

"Brother Lu, I'm sorry for hiding so much from you." Xu Sheng walked up to Lu Wei again and said sincerely, "If you don't want to be implicated, I can let you take your brothers back to Jicheng!"

"." Seeing the three other people's eyes locked on him at the same time, Lu Wei tensed up and smiled broadly: "In Jicheng, I said I would try my best to help you, and now I won't break my promise!"

The sharp gaze in the air gradually dissipated, and Xu Sheng looked overjoyed: "Okay, let's work together!"

"First we need to confirm who the enemy is. Do you two have any information on this?"

He turned around, his back to Lu Wei, and asked Zhou Wen and Sang Lin.

"It should be a snare." Sang Lin replied in a deep voice.

"The dragnet is all-pervasive." Zhou Wen read out these eight words and savored them carefully: "The killers sent by Luowang to deal with us will not exceed the killing level."

"How is your killing strength?"

The questioner is Xu Sheng.

"It's a little worse than before I was injured."

The answer is Zhou Wen.

"Then we have the strength to fight!" Xu Sheng regained his energy: "Brother Zhou, how are you recovering?"

Brother Zhou?
Lu Wei's heart moved. He had an impression of these three words.

Zhou Wen?Zhou Zhang!Former general manager of Gonggongtang!

Xu Sheng told himself last time that Zhou Zhang was framed by Tian Zhong to abolish his martial arts and was expelled from the farm. It was because of this that Xu Qiu had to return to the Gonggongtang headquarters to take charge.

Unexpectedly, he came to Yan State under a pseudonym and also went to Chu?
"The internal injuries are still there." Zhou Wen shook his head: "About [-]% to [-]%."

"That's enough! The next difficulty is just how to find them!"

Xu Sheng clenched his fist with his left hand and slapped it on the palm of his right hand, his expression returned to his original confidence. "It's difficult. As a predator, Snare is always very patient."

Sang Lin knew the snare very well.

But Mengxin Lu Wei just discovered a wonderful thing, and he asked softly:
“If Snare is the predator, who is his prey?”

"I!"

"I."

"I~"

Xu Sheng, Zhou Wen, and Sang Lin spoke at the same time, looking at Lu Wei for a moment: Are you so self-aware?
After the three of them talked, you looked at me, I looked at you, and then you shut up at the same time.

"What a wonderful idea, Brother Lu, we understand what you mean!"

Xu Sheng coughed twice to ease his embarrassment: the reason why he thought he was prey was because he understood Lord Yan Chun's plans for the Xu family's business, and already knew that he had planted some people among the caravan disciples.

The other two were similar to him, each had their own story, and they were convinced that the snare was aimed at them.

This led to a unanimous statement.

"Yes, if the prey is allowed to escape, the hunter will naturally be exposed, and the offensive and defensive momentum will be different!" Zhou Wen nodded and praised this idea.

"Then who is their most valued prey?"

Although Sang Lin was asking a question, his eyes were staring at Xu Sheng and he had clearly given the answer.

"You can't compete with me this time~" Xu Sheng teased and pointed his finger at his face:

"Everyone is related to me, the leader of the caravan, and the most important prey can only be me!"

"Have you considered it clearly?" Zhou Wen said calmly: "This time is very dangerous. I'm afraid you will have to survive for a quarter of an hour under the siege of at least four trap killers!"

"And they won't give you time to talk!" Sanlin added.

"Then I have to ask you to come and save people as soon as possible~"

Xu Sheng nodded. He was not a good person who was willing to sacrifice himself, but he knew that he could only take such risks if he wanted to survive in this situation.

"There are still a few days until they take action next time. We can use this time to polish the plan in detail!"

Lu Wei suggested.

------

Three nights later, it was time for the snare operation again.

In the caravan's main tent, the four people exchanged silent glances, then held up the torch and carried Qinggong openly and ran out in four directions.

When the secret killer saw this, he immediately evacuated and reported it to the killer leader.

"Hey, I want to run away!"

The leader actually understands that the other party is most likely luring the enemy: the killer does not have to be highly skilled in martial arts, but the brain must not be just muscles.

But he couldn't gamble. Once the other party took those things and ran into a nearby farmhouse branch, the mission would fail!

"Do you want to split up and chase each other?"

A subordinate suggested.

"No, kill them one by one!"

The leader makes a decision.

Tonight is destined to be full of blood.
