~~~~~~

Zu Dale did not expect that Li Yuanqing would be so straightforward.

But for a moment~, a knowing smile appeared on Zu Dale's face.

Li Yuanqing is so straightforward, which means that it is entirely possible for the two parties to continue talking.

Zu Dale no longer hesitated and said carefully: "Li Shuai, as long as Li Shuai can stand on the side of our warriors and uphold justice for our warriors, my ancestral family is willing to offer 10,000 taels of silver to Li Shuai!"

Ten thousand taels of silver was already the biggest bargaining chip Zu Dalue could control. If it was more, he wouldn't be able to take control.

After saying this number, Zu Dale felt a pain in his heart, and his eyelids were twitching slightly.

Li Yuanqing naturally noticed Zu Dale's little movements, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Although the ancestral family is deeply rooted in western Liaoning, Guan Ning's stall is very large and its inherent territory is not fully guaranteed.

To put it more bluntly, the ancestral family has more property and fixed assets, such as the shops and land deeds in Ningyuan City, the equipment and armor of the soldiers under his command, and the land around Ningyuan and Jinzhou.

But due to the limitations of the entire structure, their cash flow should not be much.

Zu Dalue can tell you ten thousand taels of silver, which is no longer a small number, and the weight is no longer light.

After all, Guan Ning at this time was only in its infancy, far from the deep-rooted tail that Chongzhen had become more than ten years later.

"Li Shuai..."

Zu Dale saw that Li Yuanqing did not express his position for a while, and cold sweat began to break out on his forehead.

If Li Yuanqing sided with Wang Zhichen at this time... the consequences... Zu Dale would simply be unable to imagine.

Although Guan Ning and his gang are so talkative, they all understand that Li Yuanqing is a big fish in the sea, and they are ornamental fish in a fish tank.

Li Yuanqing opened the court, and they still had wine and meat every day, but once they left the court, or in other words, broke the original rules, then...

Seeing that the fire was almost done, Li Yuanqing smiled faintly: "Second Master, regarding this matter, Yuan Qing is really flattered by the sincerity of our ancestors."

Zu Dale couldn't help but be overjoyed and said with a smile: "Li Shuai, we are brothers in the same boat after all. With Li Shuai's words, Zu will feel at ease."

Li Yuanqing smiled and shook his head, "Second Master, you have misunderstood what Yuan Qing meant. Yuan Qing cannot accept this money."

"Uh? This..."

Zu Dale was sweating profusely and simply didn't know how to continue.

On the side, Zu Dabi also swallowed with some difficulty. Is Li Yuanqing trying to add insult to injury so that their ancestral family will never be able to stand up again?

Li Yuanqing smiled at this time and said: "Second Master, as for money, I, Li Yuanqing, am also short of money. But compared to money, I hope to get more sincere help from my ancestors."

After a long while, Zu Dale finally realized what he was saying, and hurriedly wiped the cold sweat off his head, "Li Shuai, I don't know, I don't know what you mean by sincerity..."

At this time, the rhythm of the entire conversation had completely fallen into Li Yuanqing's applause. Li Yuanqing no longer hung up and said with a smile: "Second Master, it's very simple. I hope that the ancestral family can rely on the advantage of the geographical location to cooperate with me.

Nan, let’s trade war horses. Of course, you can pay according to the market price. But the quality of the war horses must be guaranteed!”

"Well?"

Zu Dale never expected that Li Yuanqing would make such a request and also ask for the market price. This...

He quickly looked at Zu Dabi beside him.

Zu Dabi was also a little confused. Li Yuanqing, what kind of medicine was sold in this gourd? Did he want the Zu family to make money?

Li Yuanqing took his time, smiled, lit a cigar, and quietly waited for his ancestral brothers to think about it.

After a long time, Zu Dale finally realized what he said. He exchanged a look with Zu Dabi, looked at Li Yuanqing respectfully and said, "Li Shuai, do you really mean what you said?"

But after saying that, Zu Dale suddenly wanted to slap himself in the face.

At Li Yuanqing's level, can he still make jokes?

To a large extent, their ancestral family did have a hostile relationship with Li Yuanqing, but Li Yuanqing's reputation in the Liao region, and even in the entire Ming Dynasty, was unspeakable.

Li Yuanqing smiled and said: "Second Master, are there any times when the words I, Li Yuanqing, have said do not count?"

Seeing that Li Yuanqing didn't look angry, Zu Dale felt relieved and respectfully hugged Li Yuanqing and said: "Li Shuai, your heart is so big that Zu can't even flatter you!"

…………

Brothers Zu Dale and Zu Dabi chatted with Li Yuanqing for almost half an hour and agreed on some specific transaction details before leaving in indescribable excitement.

At this time, Man Gui also came to Li Yuanqing's room.

Li Yuanqing smiled and helped Man Gui pour a cup of tea, "Brother Gui, you won't blame me for this matter about our ancestors, right?"

Man Gui couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Yuan Qing, if you say it's not strange, that's a lie. To be honest, when I first heard you mention this, I almost jumped up. But at this time, I already understood

, the meaning behind your words is obvious."

Li Yuanqing smiled and said: "Brother Gui, as a human being, this is actually the truth. There are no permanent friends, and there will be no permanent enemies. You can learn from each other's strengths to make up for your weaknesses. Besides, if I have benefits, what can I do without you, Brother Gui?"

Mangui smiled and nodded, but couldn't help but sigh: "Yuanqing, this is my fault. Although I am a Mongolian, in this regard, I don't have as broad a path as my ancestors..."

Li Yuanqing smiled and handed Man Gui a cigar and said: "Brother, a ruler is short, an inch is long. Our ancestral family has been operating here for several generations. How many days have it been for you and me? In time, we will compare

Are they missing?"

Man Gui also turned this corner, with a relieved smile on his face, but he couldn't help but shook his head and said: "Yuan Qing, to be honest. If you were in Liaoxi, my brother and I would be much more comfortable."

…………

After lunch, just after noon, Li Yuanqing, accompanied by Man Gui and more than a hundred soldiers, arrived at the entrance of Wang Zhichen's official hall as promised.

In the official hall, there were already waiters waiting, and they quickly and respectfully welcomed Li Yuanqing into the inner room.

Yesterday, the "Rabbit Master" boy respectfully served Li Yuanqing good tea. After a moment, Wang Zhichen, dressed in a red official robe, also came to Li Yuanqing's side with a smile on his face.

"Li Junmen, I haven't seen you for a day, and I suddenly feel as if I have been separated for three autumns."

Li Yuanqing stood up with a smile, respectfully bowed to Wang Zhichen, and said with a smile: "Master Jinglue is joking. A humble position does not mean a beautiful woman."

Wang Zhichen couldn't help laughing: "Li Junmen is really humorous."

The two exchanged a few words, and Wang Zhichen smiled and said: "Li Junmen, I heard that yesterday, you had some minor conflicts with people from the Jinzhou ancestral family?"

Li Yuanqing already had a plan in mind.

Shanhaiguan is such a big place. Even if Wang Zhichen did not have an overview of western Liaoning, it would not be difficult for him to get some news inside the city.

Even if his ancestors visited him this morning, the king's ministers would have heard about it.

But Wang Zhichen did not talk about the visit to his ancestors, but first talked about the conflict between Li Yuanqing and his ancestors, and his intention to win over was beyond words.

To a certain extent, Li Yuanqing actually understood Wang Zhichen's painstaking efforts.

To a large extent, Man Gui at this time should be regarded as his subordinate, and Li Yuanqing was on good terms with Man Gui, so Wang Zhichen naturally wanted to win Li Yuanqing under his command.

It's a pity that everything in the world can't be so easy?

Li Yuanqing hurriedly smiled and said: "Master Jinglue clearly sees that there is indeed some friction between Beizhi and the ancestral family. However, they are all working for the Ming Dynasty and the emperor, and Beizhi will do its best to deal with it thoroughly."

Wang Zhichen's expression changed slightly.

What a shrewd person he is?

In an instant, he understood what Li Yuanqing meant. Li Yuanqing did not want to fall into this tangled vortex...

But after waiting for so long, it was not easy for someone like Li Yuanqing who could break the situation to appear. Wang Zhichen did not want to give up yet and said with a smile: "Li Junmen, southern Liaoning is very stormy, and western Liaoning is the gateway to the capital and the country."

It’s a heavy weapon.”

If Wang Zhichen said what he said just now, it was still a bit vague, but at this time, he was completely determined to win over Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing hurriedly cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Yuan Qing is really flattered by Lord Jinglue's love. However, Lord Jinglue, you also know that this land in western Liaoning is a bit too... too deep. Even if you are in a humble position, there is no good way.

ah."

Wang Zhichen stared straight into Li Yuanqing's eyes, his face already a little cold, "Li Junmen, is there really nothing we can do?"

Li Yuanqing looked at Wang Zhichen respectfully, "Master Jinglue, don't you know better than your humble position?"

"Why!"

Wang Zhichen couldn't help but let out a long sigh, "Li Junmen, the state affairs have reached this point, how difficult it is, how difficult it is?"

Even though he knew that Wang Zhichen was acting, Li Yuanqing still decided to test Wang Zhichen's attitude, "Master Jinglue, three feet of ice is far from being as cold as one day. If Master Jinglue wants to break the situation, he is afraid~~, so he has to endure his temper and slowly

Picture it."

"Take it slowly?"

Wang Zhichen couldn't help but smile and shook his head, "Li Junmen, you can't break the situation. What can I do?"

As he spoke, he turned around and looked at a magnificent landscape painting on the wall, but the figure behind it was indescribably desolate.

Li Yuanqing narrowed his eyes slightly, but stopped talking.

…………

It was already evening when we came out of Wang Zhichen's official hall.

Wang Zhichen also knew very well that even if he could not win over Li Yuanqing, he could never push Li Yuanqing to be against him.

At this time, the dynasty was no longer what it used to be. Civil servants could just drag down the clothes of warriors and spank them on the street.
