Chapter 430: Weapon trading, indeed “the righteousness is ruthless”

Huludao, Fanjia Water Village, and several warships entered the gourd-shaped water bay one after another. It has to be said that the tens of thousands of islands in Heze Lake are like a maze forest. If you are unfamiliar people can't find the southeast, southwest and northwest.

"This is your old nest! You have chosen the place well!" Leng Zhuo glanced at the rock walls on both sides. Such easy-to-defense and difficult-to-attack place is indeed worthy, but if you are really surrounded, it will be a dead place.

"The Marquis has been awarded. My Fan family has been in Heze Lake for seven or eight generations. After a long time of operation, I dare not say anything else. The entire Heze Lake is better than my Fan Family Water Village, and there is really no second place suitable for building a village. I have fought with people for more than ten years and died to occupy this place!"

Leng Zhuo smiled, but said nothing more. The warship on the roof was docked on the dock. Only then did Leng Zhuo see that there was a town of not small size here. On the dock, there were many children waving when they saw the fleet coming back and running with the boat.

Leng Zhuo was just watching along the way, following Fan Shuier all the way to a large mansion on a dirt slope: "Please take a bath and wash your dust first, and I'll invite you to have dinner together later, and talk about our business by the way!"

Leng Zhuo nodded, but his mental power spread rapidly around him. After entering the thief's nest, he naturally had to be extremely vigilant.

Fan Shui'er left Leng Zhuo's courtyard, but left the mansion, entered a small courtyard in the town, and came to the backyard hall with a familiarity, saying, "Your Highness the Second Princess, you have been invited and temporarily placed in the courtyard, but my subordinates still have some questions!"

The warm basin of the room full of light orchid fragrance gushed out. In front of the Eight Treasures table, the woman called the Second Princess was wearing a plain white dress, without any luxury, but was just a female skirt sewn with the most ordinary fabric, but when worn on her, she could not hide the graceful temperament emitted from her body.

"Fan Qing family, thank you for your hard work, let you run so hard. If you have any questions, just say that you have nothing to hide from you!" The faint voice did not make people feel that cold and kept people away from each other. Instead, it had a unique charm. It would not make people feel cold and would not forget the other person's lofty identity.

"Everything is for the empire. I just want to ask, will the Marquis of Ping'an sell us weapons? You must know that he is the grandson-in-law of Duke Wei and belongs to the empire. How could he fund our Tang Dynasty!"

The second princess smiled indifferently, put down the embroidery in his hand, and said, "Because he is greedy, not only lustful but also rich! And the Fan Qing family is so tempting, maybe that guy will agree!"

A faint blush suddenly appeared on Fan Shui'er's face and said, "Your Highness! There are so many greedy guys in the world, so you may not have to look for him! Maybe it will be less difficult to change someone!"

The second princess shook his head and said, "You are right. There are so many corrupt officials in the world who are greedy and lustful. It is easy to bribe them. However, those idiots cannot become the help of the re-emergence of the empire, but he can!"

"oh!"

"Okay, you won't understand some things when you say them, let alone my ignorant sister is still in this person's territory. As for how to talk about it at supper, Xiao Qing's family will help you. She is the future female prime minister of our Tang Dynasty. She is the best at this kind of thing!"

"Shui'er has met Mr. Xiao!"

"General Fan doesn't have to be too polite. I'll bother you later!" A woman in a colorful dress with a dress with crescent eyes, with a hint of natural cunning, and said with a smile.

"Marty Ping'an, the village is poor and cannot produce any delicacies. There is only some rural food. I hope you don't dislike it!"

Leng Zhuo hummed, but his eyes looked at a woman beside Fan Shuier. At first glance, Leng Zhuo was almost surprised and lost his voice. He thought he had seen Nangong Yuhu's girl, with the same fox eyes, with a sense of cleverness and cunning, his face and figure were all top-notch. There were actually two beauties in this cottage that people couldn't help but push down, which surprised Leng Zhuo!

"Oh, look at me, this is the second village leader of our copycat. Xiao Yuhe. I am the one who fights and kills outside, but I rely on the second village leader to manage the affairs in the village. How to negotiate this business, she is the main focus!"

Haha, I didn’t expect that there was a real master, the water bandit. There was no place in this girl who looked like a water bandit. This person’s temperament could not be hidden.

"I won't say much nonsense. What kind of business do you want to talk about? To be honest, I really couldn't imagine that there would be any business with you water bandits!" Although eating with a beautiful woman at the same table is a beautiful thing, if these two beauties obviously have bad intentions, the dining table will be no harmony.

"Don't Marquis Ping'an do you need to be so arbitrary? Since we have invited you, there are naturally some. Otherwise, why do we need to take such a big risk to invite the Marquis over? Maybe, a large number of naval troops will come to encircle and suppress them tomorrow!"

"Ha, you are still sure of your situation, but I want to hear it, so that you can take such a big risk and what is the deal you want to discuss!"

Xiao Yuhe smiled sweetly, but stood up and filled Leng Zhuo with a glass of wine, and then said, "This fish is the best in the Tianhe River. Tianhe Puffer and Tianhe Puffer are delicacies on earth. However, they are not cooked well, but they become highly poisonous. However, even so, many people are willing to taste it when they die!"

Xiao Yuhe said as she picked up a piece with chopsticks and put it into the cherry mouth: "Okay, let's get back to the point. It's said that we, the Heze water bandits, lived a very comfortable life. Our island is located in a good location and is stuck at the mouth of Heze Lake. You can enter Tianhe to the south. A large section of Tianhe is also the sphere of influence of our water village!"

"According to the rules on the river, the passing merchants and cargo ships have to pay us some tolls, so we can protect their safety. In this year, we have more than enough people to support a large village and can still accumulate some. However, in the past six months, the situation has been getting worse. Last month, we collected less than 60% of the money we had in previous years, and it seems that there is a downward trend. We can barely evenly in the past two months, but next year, we will have to spend our old foundation to supplement it!"

Leng Zhuo listened for a while and didn't understand what the other party meant: "Does this have anything to do with me?"

"How could it be okay!" This time, even Fan Shui'er rolled her eyes and glared at Leng Zhuo. His Fan family is growing in Heze Lake day by day. Although he has been encircled and suppressed many times by the government, he has been safely tideful every time. He relied on the prosperous waterways of Tianhe River. Even if they were seriously damaged, they could recover in three or two years. But at present, the rise of the Leng family is cutting off their roots.

Not only them, but also those local clans that started their own business because of the Tianhe Waterway and flourished, probably hated him so much.

"It really matters?" Leng Zhuo was also a little surprised.

"Marty Ping'an opened a golden river, connecting Chuzhou and southern Yangzhou. Over the past year, the business has been booming. Now he has taken over more than 30% of the trade in Chu and Yang. Even from Shu and Yong shopping malls in the upper reaches of Tianhe, there are also many shopping malls in the south. The low taxes on your side are about to force us to a dead end. Our water village is fine. After all, it has a thick foundation, but those small strands can no longer stand it, and there are even those who want to fight for you...!"

Leng Zhuo said oh, and suddenly realized that this was the case. However, Leng Zhuo did not mean to be sorry at all. Instead, he was a little proud. Speaking of which, he had to thank the chaos in the world!

Leng Zhuo went north to marry Wei Zhilan. The Leng family and Wei family were one. With the Duke of Wei, the Leng family naturally did not need to be as timid as before. Especially after Wei Zhilan returned to the Leng family, Lu Chanyue also completed the task assigned by Leng Zhuo, and there was no need to hide it. As long as the merchants in Chuzhou were not fools, they would know what to do.

Walking in Tianhe, what a joke? Not to mention the taxes along the way, the water bandits have to peel them. Even if they encounter small water bandits who are completely unruly, they will suffer some losses. Just the guards along the way will cost more. However, because the Leng family is a businessman, the waterways they walk on, not to mention half of the water bandits, are all smart about the business.

Tianhe shipping was naturally greatly affected, and the families, clans and interest groups that benefited from both sides of the Tianhe River naturally would not watch so much, and they used their relationships to clear the gap, but they just happened to catch up with the emperor's death. Then, the Northern Hu army went south, and then the Li Tang occupied half of Zhongzhou, and rebellions broke out in various places.

The Leng family was naturally pushed down, and the situation of Jinhe was not understood for a day, so Leng Zhuo was naturally happy to make more money by the Leng family, but there were many people in pain, and the two girls in front of him were one of the victims.

"Okay, let's talk about your business!" After hearing the general reason, Leng Zhuo couldn't help feeling very happy. His previous depression was gone, and he was much more pleasing to these two top beauties.

"Well, the meat of puffer fish this day is really good!"

Xiao Yuhe was slightly angry. This guy was serious just now, but now he has completely changed his personality. His eyes can see through his body and he feels uncomfortable all over.

"Let's just get straight to the point. We want to take over the weapons deal in your territory!" Xiao Yuhe didn't go around the corner and said frankly.

"Weapons trading?" Leng Zhuo raised his head and looked at Xiao Yuhe in amazement. It seemed that although the Leng family's Hongtu City had also become regular, it did not buy many weapons. Moreover, the empire had very "strict" control over the weapons trading. A group of water bandits wanted to buy weapons from him. Why do you rebel?

There seems to be only such an explanation!

"Do you want to rebel? No, don't sell it!" Leng Zhuo immediately shook his head. He would not do such a thing as helping the evildoer.

"We just want to make money when rebelling. As for rebellion, we are not interested. However, there are so many people who rebel now, and the weapons have increased by several times! And we can find out that the territory seems to be secretly selling weapons, and we just want to get a shot and make a difference to survive!"

"That's not OK. This is an enemy. I am a dignified imperial marquis..."

"The current market price is three times. As long as the quality is guaranteed, we will trade in cash!" Xiao Yuhe did not make any jokes and directly offered the price.

"Uh, that's the question, what is the market price now?" Leng Zhuo did not continue to be righteous, but asked a question that Fan Shuier would spray all the tea out in one sip!
