Su Jin turned to look at Lang Shaodong, stretched out his hand to pull him up, and sighed: "Lang Shaodong's family, your appearance makes outsiders think that I am forcing you. In fact, you should be happy."
Lang Shaodong thought to himself: Wasn't it you who forced me? Otherwise, why would I beg you for mercy?
"Su Dongjia, you didn't force me, I did it voluntarily..."
"That's the truth. This matter will be of great benefit to you and not harmful at all. You will understand this in the future."
"Yes..." Lang Shaodong got up and said, "But I don't know what you want to do down here? I can't do anything too difficult."
Su Jin smiled and said: "It's very simple. I want you to do three things. The first thing is to use your relationship with the Chamber of Commerce to keep an eye on Zhu Shiyong and everyone in the Chamber of Commerce, and report their words and deeds to me in order to capture them.
You must know yourself and the enemy, and you cannot blindly touch things.”
Lang Shaodong scratched his head and said: "But... how could they say something confidential in front of me? How can I find out any useful information?"
Su Jin said: "This is the time to test your ability. They exclude you just because they are not trustworthy about you. I can give you a trick. From now on, you must show your kindness to them, such as Zhu Shiyong
, not only can you not show jealousy because he beats you, but you should sincerely apologize to him, scold yourself for being ignorant of current affairs, and show complete repentance; for example, it is the second day of the lunar new year, and you are sitting here
This is a bad behavior at home. You should take the initiative to visit Magistrate Zhu with gifts in order to eliminate their wariness towards you."
Lang Shaodong thought to himself: Damn it, I'm going to be a grandson. If someone beats me up, I have to come to the door to admit my mistake. My face is completely gone.
"But the Sudong family, just like this, may not be able to gain their trust. I'm afraid it will be difficult for them to immediately tell me their secrets without hesitation."
Su Jin smiled and said: "Of course, the gesture is just a prerequisite. Of course you have to take practical actions to make them trust you; I have prepared four heavy gifts for you. You will immediately take the gifts to Zhu Shiyong and the three presidents of the Chamber of Commerce in person.
I’ll come to your house to fix it; I’ve also prepared a super gift for you. Once this gift is given, you will immediately gain their trust. ()”
Lang Shaodong was surprised: "What kind of super gift?"
Su Jin beckoned: "Come here with your ears!"
Lang Shaodong quickly lowered his head and stretched his ears. Su Jin whispered a few words in his ear. The more Lang Shaodong listened, the more frightened he became. His legs became weak and he sat down on the chair. He was speechless for a long time.
The pain in my body was completely ignored.
"Su Dongjia...is everything you said true?" Lang Shaodong swallowed his saliva and asked.
"Will I tell lies? Now you understand that I am saving you? If you are involved in this matter, how many of your heads can you save?"
Lang Shaodong nodded repeatedly and said: "I understand, I understand now. Did Magistrate Zhu really write a letter to inform the bandits?"
Su Jin hissed, and cautiously ran to the entrance of the hall to look around. When he saw no one around, he turned back and scolded in a low voice: "What are you doing? How can you say this loudly?"
Lang Shaodong hurriedly apologized and said in a low voice: "Su Dong's family, I have a doubt."
Su Jindao: "You can ask whatever you want. Since we are cooperating, I will not keep you in the dark. I am not the Chamber of Commerce and Zhu Shiyong."
Lang Shaodong was a little moved and said softly: "You want me to tell Magistrate Zhu that the letter he wrote to inform the bandits has fallen into the hands of Ouyang Zhongcheng, and the person who sent the letter, Chen Laogen, is also in the hands of Ouyang Zhongcheng. Doesn't this mean that it is given to Zhu Shiyong?
Did they tip off the news?"
Su Jin smiled and said: "It is indeed a tip-off, otherwise there would be no good show?"
Lang Shaodong blinked his eyes in confusion; Su Jin chuckled and said, "What do you think Zhu Shiyong will do when he finds out?"
Lang Shaodong frowned and thought hard, his face suddenly turned pale, he shook his head and said, "I don't dare to make any assumptions."
Su Jindao: "It's okay not to speculate, but you don't need to guess. What Zhu Shiyong wants to do is his business. You only need to send this gift package and the task will be completed."
A fine cold sweat broke out on the tip of Lang Shaodong's nose, and he couldn't help thinking. Zhu Shiyong actually dared to send a letter to the bandits and let the bandits steal the grain shipped to Yangzhou. Lang Shaodong didn't know about this at all; but what Su Jin said about having a nose and eyes, maybe it was true.
What happened is also unknown.
Assuming that this matter is true, what is Su Jin's purpose in revealing the news to Zhu Shiyong? Doesn't this remind Zhu Shiyong to be on guard? Doesn't he want to bring down Zhu Shiyong? Why does he suddenly help him again?
Lang Shaodong was puzzled. It seemed that Su Jin would not tell him his true intention, but one thing was correct. As long as the news was true, telling Zhu Shiyong the news would be a great achievement, and he would be able to
Gain Zhu Shiyong's trust; but the way of telling must be careful, and must not be straightforward. This matter is related to life and death. You must pretend to be vague and do not understand the inside story, otherwise it is equivalent to holding Zhu Shiyong's handle; the mouse's
The tail can be held in the hand to contain it, but the tiger's tail must not be grasped.
Lang Shaodong made up his mind, his face calmed down a little, and he asked in a low voice: "Su Dongjia, what if Zhu Shiyong asks me where I got this news?"
Su Jindao: "Of course I can't say that I told you. You can say that your man and my personal companion accidentally learned about it when we were drinking in a restaurant. In short, you decide how to explain the source of the news. If you want me to do this,
If you give me step-by-step instructions, it will appear that you are too incompetent."
Lang Shaodong cursed secretly, but there was really no need to teach him about this matter. The source of the information could not be concealed, so it was nonsense.
"The third thing I want you to do is to find a way to invite several owners of car dealerships in Luzhou to have a drink at Hefeng Tower. I might as well tell you that people from the Chamber of Commerce and Yamen are staying near the car dealerships.
The surveillance was because they were afraid that I would come into contact with the truck dealers; because when we were transporting grain, Zhu Shiyong had ordered the dealers not to rent the trucks to the Imperial Army escorting the grain, in order to delay the time of transporting grain and make my errand in Yangzhou
If it goes wrong, I will have to get a confession from the owner of the car dealer so that I can convict Zhu Shiyong in the future. If you succeed in this matter, you will have made a great contribution; after completing these three things, you can sit back and relax."
The more Lang Shaodong listened, the more frightened he became. He didn't expect that there were so many things in Luzhou City that he didn't know. Lang Shaodong was both annoyed and grateful. What was annoying was that the Chamber of Commerce and Zhu Shiyong never took him seriously. These things were under his nose.
I knew nothing about what happened underground; fortunately, I was not involved, otherwise Su Jin would never have been able to sit here and talk to me. Maybe I was just in the dark like Zhu Shiyong, Tang Jiyuan and others.
Waiting to die.
"Don't worry, Mr. Su, I will do my best to handle these things, but I have a small request."
"Please say."
"If once Zhu Shiyong finds out that I am being used by you, I am afraid he will kill me. Please give me Mr. Su's protection when the time comes. They can do anything."
Su Jin chuckled and said: "I will give you authorization. Once you feel that your life is in danger, you can come to me immediately and I will protect you. I have nearly two hundred imperial guards and horsemen on hand to protect you.
It won’t be a problem for you.”
Lang Shaodong burst into tears of gratitude and thanked him repeatedly.
Su Jin said calmly: "Since you have said ugly things in front of me, I have also told you ugly things in front of you; I have informed you of the most important secrets, and you are free to seek your own death if you want to; you must know that the imperial faction
The Imperial Envoy has come down to investigate this matter thoroughly. A person like you will be easily crushed like a small insect. If you don't believe it, you can bet your life on it. It is said that there are many people in Yangzhou Prefecture who are a hundred times smarter and more resourceful than you.
The backstage is a hundred times tougher than you, but they are on the wrong team and with the wrong person, so now they are lying in the mud rotting and getting maggots; you must cherish this opportunity I gave you."
Lang Shaodong had actually understood this truth for a long time. Su Jin's words were just superfluous. When what Zhu Shiyong and others had done without telling him was exposed, Lang Shaodong knew that Zhu Shiyong and everyone in the Chamber of Commerce were doomed.
Fortunately, he did not become one of the victims. Su Jin took the initiative to give him a thigh to hug, which was already favored by God. Lang Shaodong was determined to hold this thigh tightly and never let go. This little life
Whether you can keep it or not depends on your performance.
Su Jin ordered Xiaozhu to take down the four packages he had prepared from the car and give them to Lang Shaodong, saying: "I have been extremely kind to you. I have even prepared gifts for you without you having to spend a penny. That big package
There are thirty taels of gold in it, and these three are thirty taels of silver, which is enough for you to take."
Lang Shaodong clicked his tongue, not because of such a large amount of money, but because of Su Jin's careful arrangement. This gift had been prepared from the beginning, which showed that Su Jin actually knew that he would give in.
In fact, jumping around for a long time has always been part of other people's plans.
Until this moment, Lang Shaodong finally understood why Su Ji's young master's family was so prosperous. Compared with him, his family was like a shining star in the sky, while his family was just a cold piece of shit on the ground.dd
