Chapter 116 Pang Tong’s method
After Cai He left, Fei Qian thought about it for a while and felt that although he had roughly guessed the meaning of Cai He''s words for Cai Mao, he was still not sure. After all, this matter was not a joke...
But why did the Cai family do this?
Are the Cai family and the Kuai family the same group?
If it turns out to be another pit, it won’t be fun at all…
?Why can’t these people have fun? It’s just the New Year and I’m busy thinking about this and calculating that. Are you tired?
??Unfortunately, the complaints turned out to be complaints, and Fei Qian returned to the wooden house in Lushan full of depression.
As soon as he raised his eyes and saw Pang Tong, Fei Qian suddenly had an idea. Isn''t this a ready-made strategist? Please ask for advice. Who is Pang Tong? Feng Chu! Even though it is indeed a bit "younger" now, don''t treat the bean buns as dry food!
Unfortunately, when Fei Qian and his smiling face approached Pang Tong, Pang Tong suddenly became alert. He looked Fei Qian up and down, picked up the letter and prepared to go back to his room...
Hello! I haven''t said anything yet!
Fei Qian hurriedly stepped forward to stop Pang Tong and said, "Shi Yuan, um...what do you think I do to you?"
“Not very good.” Pang Tong replied without thinking.
"No...what''s wrong with that?" Fei Qian rolled his eyes and said, "There was roasted leg of lamb yesterday. I let you eat it!"
“Hmph! You have the nerve to say that, if you really couldn’t eat anymore, would you give it to me?” Pang Tongyi twisted his face, not appreciating it at all.
"Well...it was the day before yesterday. Did I drink the newly delivered tea without even drinking a sip of it, and gave it to you and Zijing to drink?"
Pang Tong thought for a while, nodded, but still said with some doubt: "There is nothing wrong with that, but... I always feel that you think the tea is not delicious, so you don''t drink it..."
Fei Qian categorically rejected it and put on an expression of being wronged: "How is it possible? I saw that the tea soup was a little short, not enough for three people to drink, so I didn''t drink it!" - Fei Qian would not admit that day even if he was beaten to death. It''s because a few more things were added when making the tea. It really makes people lose any desire to drink it after just one look at it...
??Tea in the Han Dynasty was boiled, not brewed, and it was customary to add various things to it...
Pang Tong looked at Fei Qian''s expression carefully, blinked, and said hesitantly: "...Okay, let''s forget it. Let''s talk about it. Let''s see if it''s worth a bowl of tea..."
Fei Qian ignored Pang Tong''s complaints and told the story of being thrown into the toilet, and then told the story of meeting Yi Ji and Cai He, as well as everything he said. .
Unexpectedly, Pang Tong actually clapped his hands after hearing this. He laughed and said, "This day should have happened a long time ago. Who told you to just take money and food without working, haha..."
Fei Qian''s face suddenly darkened, and he moved closer and said, "Didn''t you share the money and food I got back? Why didn''t you say this when you were eating? If you don''t like it, you can give it to me as much as you eat. Spit it out!"
"This..." Pang Tong choked for a moment, and then said: "...This is not simple. Since the Cai family has said this, what are you still worried about? Just grab some and send them to the Cai family. Say more. Isn’t it just a matter of saying something?”
Fei Qian nodded, shook his head and said, "But I don''t think it''s that simple. Since the Kuai family has proposed it, don''t they have the means to control it?" Pang Tongyi nodded and said casually: "Zi Yuan, you have considered it. It makes sense, and this is a possibility, but the Cai family should also have some ideas..."
Fei Qian said depressedly: "Why are you looking for me? I didn''t provoke the Kuai family..."
"It''s not aimed at you. Who are you? They are..." Pang Tong was halfway through the sentence. He realized that he had let something slip and stopped talking. "...In this case, I will go back to the room first and I will help you think about it when I have time." …”
Fei Qian was stunned, thought about it for a moment, then realized what he was doing, grabbed Pang Tong who was about to escape, and said: "So I am just a scapegoat who throws stones to find a way out! No, in this way, you are also involved in this matter, and you must pay for it." I''ll think of a way..."
Pang Tong saw that Fei Qian had understood the true purpose of the matter, and since he was being pulled and couldn''t get away, he had no choice but to come back obediently, and then he could really think about it -
Pang Tong licked his fingers and said one by one: "First, the Kuai family is now an official. Although they have held some important positions, how can they be compared with your official position..." He also glanced at Fei Qian.
“Hmm, don’t look at me, I know, keep going…”
“Secondly, the Kuai family is based in Nanjun. It has been in business for many years and has a deep foundation. Now that it has come to Xiangyang, it must have the intention to expand in Xiangyang...” Pang Tong raised his second finger.
Pang Tong continued: "...Thirdly, the Pang family has lived in Jingxiang for a long time, but this time Liu''s recruitment failed, and the Kuai family may also want to take this opportunity to stir up the relationship between Liu''s governor and the Pang family..."
"...So Ziyuan, you happen to be the best candidate. If you join, you can hope to get a special position, and you can also damage the Pang family''s reputation. You can take this opportunity to expand the Kuai family''s influence in Xiangyang. It doesn''t hurt if you retreat. Anyway, Kuai The family has a great sense of justice, and you, a person with a foreign surname, cannot cause much trouble in Xiangyang..."
Fei Qian nodded and said, "So the Kuai family made this plan, so what does the Cai family mean?"
Pang Tong smiled and said: "The Cai family, haha, I guess they want to use the Pang family to attack the Kuai family''s outstretched hand. After all, the Cai family is based in Xiangyang, so how can the Kuai family step in easily? What if Ziyuan wants to To put it simply, just follow the Cai family''s wishes. At most, you owe the Cai family a favor. That''s about it. It shouldn''t be a big deal..."
After listening to Pang Tongyi''s words, Fei Qian became somewhat clear. It seemed that the Cai family and the Kuai family were not of the same mind. So what the Cai family said about the military scribe was nothing more than a hint to Fei Qian, as long as he sent some arrows there. , the personnel of the Cai family are of course hiding things from the truth or pretending to be fake, but they will definitely allow Fei Qian to have 40,000 arrows on his books...
As for the Kuai family''s random inspections, according to Pang Tong''s wishes, it is estimated that the Cai family also has countermeasures and is well prepared.
But in this way, Fei Qian is equivalent to owing a favor to the Cai family for no reason, just like leaving his pigtails in the hands of the Cai family. If something happens to the Cai family in the future, it will not be easy to deal with. .
So Fei Qian thought for a while and said to Pang Tong: "If you don''t want to owe the Cai family this favor, is there any other way?"
"What if we don''t take the Cai family''s route..." Pang Tong pondered for a moment and said, "...there is another way..."
All aristocratic families have some private soldiers, so it is natural for the Cai family to store some commonly used arrows. Therefore, the Cai family would simply collude with the military scribes and increase the accounts. The more complicated method would be to take out the stored arrows and add them to Fei Qian. Among those who came... 40,000 to 50,000 may seem like a lot, but in fact, it is just a pot of arrows spread over a soldier''s head... The author Jun asks for recommendation votes and collection...
