Back Off, Let Me Come

Chapter 738 738: Start (Part 1) [Please vote]

"What? Qianzhou Granary?"

Shen Tang's voice suddenly rose several times, and even Ning Yan outside the room could hear it. Even Shen Tang, who was used to seeing strong winds and waves, couldn't control the cracked expression on her face. It was not her fault for her poor concentration, but the operation of Xie Qi was really unexpected.

She immediately lowered her voice and asked again: "Is this serious?"

"It is absolutely true. I am willing to pledge my head to Mr. Shen." This is the biggest political bargaining chip of Xie Qi. It was originally used to prepare for emergencies, but the plan could not keep up with the changes. Now that it can be put to use, it can be regarded as making the best use of it.

Shen Tang looked not very happy.

She frowned and put down the object in her hand: "Zheng Qiao is so guarded and unlikely to truly trust anyone. Isn't Shizang worried that this is his old trap? He took the initiative to let your family leave. This behavior It’s inherently suspicious.”

Xie Qi was shocked: "Mr. Shen, is he suspicious of Xie?"

Shen Tang hurriedly waved his hand and explained: "No, no, no, no, I didn't mean that. Although I don't dare to boast about my sharp eyesight, I haven't misjudged anyone in these years. I naturally trust Shizang as a person, and I am glad that you are willing to work with me." I'm telling the truth...it's just that Zheng Qiao is insidious and I have to be on guard. He does have the possibility of using Shi Zang to plot against me. This matter should not be taken lightly."

Xie Qi calmed down after hearing this and secretly sweated.

Shen Tang's worries are not unreasonable.

It was indeed Zheng Qiao who could do it.

This guy likes to throw out a handful of bait to lure fat fish to the bait. Who can guarantee that the bait he used was not deliberately released by Zheng Qiao to catch the fat fish Shen Youli? Xie Qi's heart surged, and he blamed himself on his face: "It's true that Qi didn't think well."

Shen Tang smiled and thanked him with relief: "Shi Zang doesn't need to belittle himself, it's just my guess. No matter how powerful Zheng Qiao is, he is just a lonely man after everyone betrayed his family. Even though there are countless minds, one person can't do everything for the shortcomings. , my mind is racing. I’m just curious, how does Shizang know the location of this batch of grain and grass? Doesn’t it mean Zheng Qiao is suspicious? "

Xie Qi had already collected his emotions and replied: "No matter how suspicious he is, he can't do everything by himself."

Zheng Qiao is not a diligent person, and he has nothing to do with him. What Zheng Qiao is best at is threatening those who can do the work to help him. If he does well, he will continue to do it. If he doesn't do well, he may kill him at any time to vent his anger. It just so happened that Xie Qi was the one who had the ability to do a good job without beeping. This meant that although he was laid off as a waiter, he had never been replaced by Zheng Qiaoga and his life was still good.

He also has access to many confidential matters.

However, Xie Qi knew that this kind of comfort was only temporary. As Zheng Qiao's condition worsened day by day, the outside world also had the Dragon Slaying Bureau eyeing him. With internal and external troubles, Zheng Qiao would lose his life sooner or later.

If you have a chance to escape, of course you have to take the first step.

Shen Tang: "..."

Fortunately, she was able to imagine that Xie Qi had stolen secrets before leaving, and all of this was a drama that Zheng Qiao had expected. As a laborer, the content of his work may be exposed to confidentiality. This time, she was not sure anymore.

The thank you gift is too tempting.

She hesitated for a moment and swayed.

He sighed: "This is too difficult to handle."

"If the granary can be taken down, Zheng Qiao will definitely lose this game!" Xie Qi cautiously tested. This is the perfect opportunity to hit Zheng Qiao's lifeline with one blow. Risks and crises coexist. "Mr. Shen is worried about an ambush in the granary? What if it is burned down?" granary……"

In theory, you don't need too many elites.

The investment is nothing compared to the income.

Shen Tang sighed and asked Xie Qi: "Why burn the granary? Why burn the granary?"

Xie Qi and Shen Tang looked at each other, confused.

"How can we win without destroying the food and grass and cutting off its roots?"

Shen Tang did not agree with the gesture of thanking the utensils. She sighed: "As the saying goes: Who knows that every grain of food is hard work. This is a year of disaster, and the forces in various places are only focused on fighting each other. How can we control people's livelihood? Fight wars. Not only that, how can the common people farm with peace of mind? Previously, Zheng Qiao was clearing the fields in Yanzhou, not only destroying spring plowing, but also plundering grain from various places and taking away all the young and strong. The old and weak left behind were helpless and could only wait for death in despair. If Burning the Qianzhou granary is tantamount to sending these people to a dead end."

I'm sorry for how difficult people's lives are.

Even if reason told Shen Tang that burning down the granary was the least costly method, and it was also the move that would most damage Zheng Qiao's troops and quickly undermine their morale, but when he thought about the lives that food was related to, how could Shen Tang bear it? Burning food is tantamount to killing people.

Xie Qi's face turned a little pale when he heard this.

He only thought about the benefits this bargaining chip could bring him.

He had never considered what Shen Tang said.

Even though Xie Qi didn't think there was anything wrong with his idea, he actually felt a little ashamed when facing Jun Shen who spoke sincerely.

"I don't mean to blame you, this is my problem. I am not decisive in killing, and even a little too indecisive... Shizang, you are just fulfilling your duty as a planner." Shen Tangyi Face sighed in frustration.

Xie Qi panicked and said, "Shen Jun must not think like this."

The young man in front of me was too sincere and kind, but that wasn't wrong. As violent as Zheng Qiao and others, they are decisive enough to kill, but has their existence changed the world for the better?

People's livelihood is in decline, and wars continue.

Because of Yan'an, Xie Qi also paid some attention to Shen Tang. He knew that Shen Tang had nothing to do with the word "indecisive". She had a compassionate heart but also had a scowl. Having a kind heart and overflowing with kindness are two different concepts.

With Zheng Qiao's experience as a control group, Shen Tang is emotionally stable and kind-hearted, so it shouldn't be too suitable for him.

Shen Tang's eyes fell on the "dowry" on the table.

Said: "Let's plan this matter slowly."

The location of the granary is most likely real. Even if Zheng Qiao had planned it carefully, it would be impossible to move so much grain in just a few days. The benefits this time were enough for Shen Tang to take a risk. But - there are not enough manpower at the moment, otherwise I would really want to open my mouth and bite him.

He cupped his thanks and said, "Wei."

After Shen Tang came out, he touched the furry heads of Xie Qi's two daughters and said a few words of good luck. The two children were not afraid of strangers, and the younger one looked up at her, unblinkingly. Shen Tang smiled and asked, "Why do you think you are looking at me like this?"

Mrs. Xie Qi's heart was hanging in the air.

She was afraid that her daughter's poor performance would leave a bad impression.

Unexpectedly, the youngest daughter said: "Shen Jun is so handsome. Can I touch your face? You touched my head too."

Shen Tang squatted half-crouched and stretched out his face: "Here, touch it."

The little daughter touched her cheek very carefully. This scene made Mrs. Xie Qi's blood pressure surge and her heartstrings tighten.

Before Shen Tang left, he did not forget to tell him: "You sisters must study hard and practice with Master Ning. When you grow up, you can become a pillar and benefit the people of the world."

The two girls nodded seriously to remember.

Gu Chi had been waiting for Shen Tang for a long time and joked: "Will the 'dowry' brought by the newcomer Xie Shizang win the heart of the master?"

Shen Tang complained: "You can watch it but not use it! Wang Chao, can you stop using this metaphor? It sounds like I am a peerless scumbag who covets the bride's dowry... ah no, scumbag..."

Gu Chi smiled and said nothing.

However, his eyes seemed to say nothing.

Shen Tang: "...I am so lucky to have you!"

"A blessed man should serve a blessed master. Speaking of which, the relationship between the Lord and Chi can be regarded as a 'snatching and plundering', right?"

Isn't this some compensation?

Shen Tang: "..."

Gu Chi couldn't help but laugh and stopped before Shen Tang became angry. At the same time, he reminded Shen Tang: "Oh, by the way, Shizang doesn't know that the master is a girl. I'm afraid the couple will be embarrassed for two days when they go back."

There were question marks on Shen Tang's forehead.

"Shizang should be quite satisfied with me and return home."

Why do you have to wreak havoc for two days?

Could it be that she was singing and chanting too hard just now?

Gu Chi burst out laughing, but refused to tell him why.

As he expected, Mrs. Xie Qi frowned for no reason not long after she returned, making Xie Qi confused.

The two daughters successfully became teachers, and the younger daughter also booked a great teacher. The futures of the three daughters are secure, but I can't understand why my wife is still unhappy. After he made some insinuations, Madam finally spoke in embarrassment: "How old is Mr. Shen..."

Xie Qi said: "Young talents have ambitions that are not due to their age."

Madam Who Guessed: "Mr. Shen hasn't made an engagement yet, has he?"

Xie Qi was puzzled: "Ask this... Do you want to protect your lord's matchmaking? Don't make random decisions about this matter, or you may annoy others."

The lady pinched the soft flesh around his waist and said, "Who said you want to provide a matchmaker for Mr. Shen? What I mean is that Mr. Shen is so young and has not yet been engaged, and our daughter is talented... Look at today, Mr. Shen treats them Very kind..."

Thank you: "..."

Becoming the future father-in-law of the new lord?

If there is a fate, it is not impossible.

The lady was furious: "Whatever you do!"

Xie Qi said: "Not to mention that this matter has not happened yet, even if it does happen, it will be too late to snatch it away due to the good conditions of the Lord."

Madam is very angry.

"It's no fun talking to you!"

She hopes that her daughter will be Ning Tunan!

The couple's voices woke up their second daughter who was still sleeping next door. Most people in this era are precocious. She said calmly: "Isn't Mr. Shen a girl?"

Why did Mr. Shen come to mind when choosing a son-in-law?

Xie Qi and his wife: "???"

Their daughter's question echoed over and over in their minds.

The second daughter said confusedly: "Isn't it?"

Shen Jun is the most beautiful female monarch she has ever seen. She is good-looking, soft-spoken, and stronger than her father. She is also her father's new master. She wants to be such a person. It seems to be a good thing if the husband-in-law is like Shen Jun.

Xie Qi and his wife: "..."

The lady looked at Xie Qi: "F-female?"

Xie Qi struggled to answer: "...I don't know."

Because of an unintentional remark from their second daughter, the couple tossed and turned and lay awake all night. It was not until dawn the next day that the teacher Ning Yan came to the door, and they thanked Qi cautiously and made insinuations. Ning Yan said: "Shizang, you just know?"

Thank you: "..."

Can he know that Shen Tang’s daughter is pregnant with a ghost!

Ning Yan laughed at him: "Aren't you too narrow-minded to trick Dawei's identity? Why did you become blind when you came in front of the lord?"

Thank you: "..."

He really didn't expect it.

Ning Yan smiled and said: "My lord has always believed that forceful melons are not sweet. If Shizang you think it is shameful to have a woman as your master, you still have time to regret it, and my lord will not blame you."

Xie Qi's face turned as black as ashes on the bottom of a pot.

If he backs down now, his wife will tear him apart with her bare hands, which will also affect the future of his three daughters.

Xie Qi said: "When will Xie regret it?"

All the beauties were once his masters, so what about women?

He vaguely understood the secret of Ning Yan's and other women's cultivation, but these were no longer important.

Because the Cunshan city defense was well-armed to the teeth, Zheng Qiao only sent people to watch and guard instead of sending troops to attack. Shen Tang had a free day for two days. In comparison, the Dragon Slaying Bureau coalition forces are not so comfortable...

Huang Lie generously shared the Hercules Pill with his allies. For everyone, this thing was good, but more life-consuming.

At first I thought Huang Lie was being alarmist, but after actually using a batch, I realized that what he said was true and the success rate was indeed only 10%. Did they get discouraged? Of course not.

This is about the composition of the people's forces.

The ones with the strongest combat capabilities are naturally the elite of each branch, well-equipped, rich in combat experience, able to obey orders, and those with high standards can even execute absolute orders and prohibitions. But, those are only a few. A considerable number are urgently recruited cannon fodder.

The levels are uneven, and the equipment and weapons are even rudimentary.

Why bring them to the battlefield?

Naturally, they have a large number of people and can provide morale.

The members of the coalition were naturally reluctant to let the elite take Hercules Pills, which would not improve them much. On the contrary, the soldiers at the bottom were different.

Their physiques are average, their combat power is weak, and their mentality is not good. They are the most vulnerable weaknesses on the battlefield. If they were allowed to take Hercules Pills, it would be enough to produce a heavy shield warrior level out of ten, which was extremely cost-effective. At this point, everyone was extremely envious of Huang Lie. During the civil unrest back then, how many homeless grass bandits regarded Huang Lie as a savior and followed him?

No matter how many Hercules Pills you refine, you won't have to worry about no one taking them.

The soldiers are all ordinary people, how can they know the plans of the upper class?

When Kang Shi, Gu Ren and others heard the news, they were silent for a long time.

The same emotion was expressed for a while.

Few of their allies are human.

Slay the dragon?

It's just dog eat dog.

But what Kang Shi didn't expect was that these allies were not punished. Instead, he was sued by someone with disheveled hair and bloody scabs on his feet. He claimed to be Tao Yan's subordinate. When crossing the river, they were attacked by Shen Tang's troops and asked the leader of the alliance to seek justice.

Everyone looked at this man with a strange look.

Tao Yan's old subordinates were unaware. He encountered a lot of troubles along the way. It was the thought of redressing the grievances of his old master that supported him here. He thought that such a wise person as the leader of the alliance would definitely be able to seek justice for his old master and let all the evildoers be executed!

But what he never expected was——

Leader Huang asked him back: "Did you know that Tao Shenyu secretly colluded with the tyrant Zheng Qiao and planned to assassinate Governor Shen?"

The old man's brain was buzzing and he was confused.

"This, this, this must not be possible!"

How could his lord collude with the enemy?

Huang Lie said: "The evidence is conclusive, both the witnesses and the material evidence are there."

Jiubu's shoulders slumped, as if all his energy had been drained away. He looked at the people in the tent at a loss. These big shots were something he couldn't usually see. She was so close to him at the moment, yet seemed so far away from him. Laughing at his stupidity from above.

Alas, I felt sleepy as soon as I finished answering questions in the afternoon. It must be the problem of returning to Nantian...
