When Pan Geng moved to Yin, I initiated Jian Shang

"Is this how he was fooled by you?"

Yao Ce met with Mo Sunji, and then Xinqu asked the accompanying Lu Jia to lead him down to rest, and also asked someone to give him new clothes to change and prepare for the evening banquet.

Then when the others left, Yao Cecai looked at Xin Qu strangely.

He admitted that he couldn't see through his nephew.

Such a good person, Mo Sun, was so deceived into lameness?

"Yu Bin was not prepared that I would definitely accept their funding, so he sent a grandson who was not taken seriously as a pioneer. He was worried that I had defected to the Guzhu clan, or that I was afraid of the Dayi merchants in the south. But let the Guzhu family go south.

In this way, the Shang clan in Hebei would have to face a head-on war with the Guzhu clan.

When the situation returns to Shang Xian, the Hebei nobles will really be completely abandoned.

If it were you, uncle, would you be able to sit back and do nothing? "

Xinqu supported his chin, touched the table, pulled out a grid, picked out a yellow and white jade rabbit pendant, and then hung it around his waist again.

Yao Ce looked at the jade pendants in a grid and was used to it.

Jade with the Xin family is continuously produced, and what can be put into the Xin family grid now are a bunch of jade pendants of average quality, specially used for rewards, gifts, and generosity.

In Xin Qu's words, the defective products we take for granted are sometimes treasures that can shock others.

Sending it out when necessary may play a good friendly card.

Of course, in addition to this jade pendant, Xin Qu also has a piece of jade with the character "Xin" that specifically represents the canonization of his surname. Like the jade with the character "Lu", it is of the scholar-bureaucrat standard, with four-sided fringe, and is extremely exquisite.

The whole family only had two pieces, and one piece was taken to the south by Lu's father. When the jade rabbit jade pendant was hung on the leather belt, it was a small piece next to the "Xin" jade, which was not as luxurious as the "Xin" jade.

"Anyway, uncle, your skills in dealing with this young man are no worse than mine. If you give him more compliments, he will be happy and things will go smoothly for us.

With the Min family helping us solve the Ji family's problem, the impact on the war situation in the entire north can be minimized. We can also get a batch of supplies along the way, and we don't have to worry about the war being stretched this winter.

Later, if we want to make more money while we can, this young man must become our bridge. "

Yao Ce clasped his hands and sighed: "Honestly speaking, you are really a thief who never misses the opportunity. Even if these supplies haven't arrived, you are thinking about more."

“There are benefits, but if you don’t take it, you won’t get it for free.

After you go to Cangyi, you tell the Wei brothers to find a way to get us a batch of bronze. There is a population gap between the Xin family and the Guzhu family, and there are not enough bronze weapons. Although we can delay it, we can always If there are any omissions, they will have too many enemies to deal with.

The south cannot be directly affected by the Guzhu clan, otherwise the risk will be huge for their masters.

Once the main force of the Guzhu clan crosses Cangyi and goes south, Hebei will be shaken. At that time, if any of the nobles in Hebei don't have a clear head and join the King of Shang, I can't imagine how long their master can hold on.

Therefore, both parties worked together to provide everything in place, even with Xin's strength. "

Xin Qu explained to Yao Ce alone, and Yao Ce nodded.

To be honest, he might have felt that suffering was too much before, but not anymore recently.

Disenchantment!
It turns out that Dayi Shang, who seems to be very good on the outside, has so many troubles internally, and looks very strong, but in fact that's all.

Perhaps like Xin Qu, if we actively build the Xin family together, the future will be more promising.

Soon Xinqu entertained Mo Sunji for two days, and it was not until Mo sent a batch of thirty leaders and one hundred thousand catties of grain as preliminary support that the cooperation between the two parties was finalized.

Then Mo Sunji took Yao Ce and his party to the east.

The Ji clan in the south sent people to inform Xinqu that they hoped to renew the armistice agreement.

That's right, the one-year truce agreement has expired. Xu Zhui, the head of the Ji clan's Xu tribe, hopes that Xin Qu will come to Xiaodianze and the two sides will renew it for another year.

However, Xinqu did not go, but ordered Liu Yuan to go to Xiaodianze as a representative.

The armistice agreement for this year was renewed.

Xinqu continued to focus on analyzing intelligence and investigating the enemy's core military base.

……

Little Yodozawa.

Liu Yuan came again, but unlike the last time he was carried away, this time he came with a mission. "Is there any Xin clan leader who didn't come?"

Xu Zhui was a little "disappointed", but he was actually relieved. He actually didn't want to deal with Xin Qu now.

Because Xinqu was not easy to pull, and some people from the Min family passed by him some time ago, followed closely by Shuidi's invasion of the southern border area of ​​​​Ji's family.

If there wasn't anything about the Xin family, he wouldn't believe it.

Other members of his tribe have been speculating about the reason for Shuidi's sudden journey north.
After arguing for a while, they still couldn't convince each other. Finally, Xu Zhui and the others decided to renew the contract to test Xin Qu's attitude.

If Xinqu came in person, then he would have to judge Xinqu's attitude and see whether Xinqu regarded the Guzhu clan as his life-or-death enemy, or whether he regarded the Ji clan as his enemy.

If he doesn't come, then it is basically certain that Xinqu's main energy is involved in the Guzhu family.

Now you can deal with Shui Di with confidence.

"The clan leader has told me that we can renew the contract. It's a fixed price. We need the Ji family to give up the passage of Wuding River to me and the Xin family."

When Liu Yuan saw Xu Zhui, he directly made a price without being too reserved.

"I said, what's the matter with you having the Xin family? We haven't even started talking yet, and you're asking for a price!"

Infuriated by Liu Yuan's harsh words, Ji Xun was the first to jump up.

Liu Yuan didn't care and looked at Xu Zhui: "Both sides use Qianling Mountain-Shijing Mountain as the boundary, the east and south belong to your tribe, and the west and north belong to my Xin family.

Although your department has a camp in this area, flash floods this summer and autumn will have a considerable impact on your department. "

Xu Zhui nodded slightly.

The Mentougou area was the main road of the Yongding River in later generations, and because it faced mountains, the mountain pass, which was still called Wuding River at this time, was divided by several waterways.

The North Wuding River directly connects to the lake near Zhuqueying where the Xin family is located and then merges into Xiaodian Ze.

The Nanwuding River rushes directly from the south to Fengtai. It splits at Fengtai. Part of it flows into the swamp here, and part of it continues to the southeast and leads directly to the sea.

The reason why Wuding River is called Wuding River is because of the seasonality, which causes the waterway to be messy. No one can tell when the water here will flow more northward and when more water will flow southward.

Therefore, the water here caused a village in Xu tribe to be almost wiped out just a few months ago, but it also made nearby tribes change their minds after hearing about it.

Although people can live in the nearby mountains, if you want to grow food, you have to open up wasteland by the river. If the flood comes every year, can the water withstand it?
Therefore, most of Ji's people have withdrawn from this land and shrunk to the position of Fengtai in later generations.

Now that Xinqu wants this piece of land, he is essentially getting a benefit out of it, and then arranges a sentry tower to completely block the gap in the southwest. When he has time and energy in the future, he will slowly sort out the Wuding River and turn it into a Cheng Yongding River.

"Do you only want this piece of land?" Xu Zhui asked again.

"Yes, we only need this piece of land." Liu Yuan nodded, "If we take this piece of land, we won't have to go through Shuidi's territory to transport supplies to Monyi, which will also give you peace of mind."

"As expected! This matter has nothing to do with you!" Ji Xun's face became more and more ugly, and he patted the table.

"Sit down!" Xu Zhui turned his head and shouted down his idiot son.

Didn't you hear that this was a threat?

If this piece of land is not given, where will the Min family go if they want to send supplies to the Youxin family?

If the Ji family dares to steal the supplies given by the Min family, are they ready to go to war with the Shang clan in Hebei?
The Guzhu clan is still the enemy of the entire Hebei Shang clan at this stage!The other side needs the Xin family to stop the Guzhu family from going south!
That’s why I invest like this!

If the Xin family didn't give up the supplies in time because of the Ji family's obstruction, the Ji family would become a thorn in the side of the entire Shang clan and a thorn in the flesh!
"Then it's settled." After Xu Zhui weighed it, he decided to give up the land he didn't need.

"The contract is made, and we should respect it together. Those who betray it will be despised by heaven!"

After Liu Yuan and Xu Zhui signed the contract, they didn't stay much and left quickly.

"This bastard!" Ji Xun couldn't help scolding, Xu Zhui didn't bother to stop him, Qi Mu solved it, and the Xin family had to be the main force to face the Guzhu family, which was a good thing and a bad thing.

If the Xin clan and the Guzhu clan both suffer losses, that will be an opportunity for the Ji clan to rise.

But what if...

"Both sides must suffer." Xu Zhui laughed dumbly, "How can we defeat the Guzhu clan when the Xin clan has only a small population? Let's deal with Shuidi first. There is no need to scare yourself." (End of this chapter)
