"Who made Minister Liang so angry? Minister Liang, please tell me. I won't forgive him.”
Just as Liang Qianqiu was about to lose his temper, someone walked in from the door.
It was Ye Qiu.
However, Ye Qiu was a little different from before. He was dirty all over, and his white clothes had a fishy smell. There was even a little blood.
"Old Tie Cheng, did you make Prime Minister Liang angry because you didn't entertain him well?”
Ye Qiu looked at Old Tie Cheng and pretended to be angry.
Old Tie Cheng quickly said with a wronged look,"Chief, you've been wrongly accused. I was planning to bring Minister Liang to Drunken Phoenix Restaurant today. I don't know why he's angry.”
"You still dare to say that you must have made Minister Liang angry. Hurry up and apologize to Minister Liang.”
Ye Qiu glared at Old Tie Cheng, and Old Tie Cheng didn't dare to say anything. He hurriedly said to Liang Qianqiu,"Minister Liang, I, Old Tie Cheng, didn't take good care of you. Please don't be angry.”
Liang Qianqiu looked at the two of them angrily.
Pretending!
Continue pretending!
I want to see how long you can pretend.
"Look, look, Minister Liang is still angry. From this, it can be seen how many days you've been doing it. It's a matter of anger." Ye Qiu pointed at Old Tie Cheng's nose and cursed, then turned to Liang Qianqiu."Minister Liang, I will definitely seek justice for you today.”
After saying that, Ye Qiu rolled up his sleeve and hit Old Tie Cheng.
Old Tie Cheng covered his head and fled like a rat. The two of them chased after each other, as if they were putting on a farce.
Liang Qianqiu couldn't bear to see these two acting in front of him anymore.
"Leader Ye, you don't need to act anymore. You should know why I'm angry.”Liang Qianqiu said.
The two of them also stopped.
"I really don't know." Ye Qiu pretended not to know.”
Liang Qianqiu harrumphed." Leader Ye, let's not beat around the bush. May I ask when you'll send your troops?"”
"Aiya, look at my memory. It's all my fault. Butcher Zhang's old sow in the west of the city had a difficult labor. I was busy with this matter. You don't know, Butcher Zhang's old sow is really too old. I don't know what he's thinking every day.”Ye Qiu said, not mentioning the matter of sending troops.
"Master Ye, don't play dumb. Today, this Liang only wants to know about this matter. This Liang has been in Guangyang County for some time.”Liang Qianqiu asked.
Ye Qiu looked at Old Tie Cheng.
Old Tie Cheng hurriedly said," Chief, you really can't blame me. You know how the people of Guangyang County were harmed by the soldiers. They have a natural resistance to the soldiers. Our recruitment notice has been out for so long, but no one has joined the army."”
"Now, I can only run from house to house and persuade them one by one. I'm exhausted.”
Ye Qiu nodded and said,"Minister Liang, you know the exact situation as well. This really isn't our fault. If we want to blame someone, we can only blame that Li Hancheng. If it wasn't for the fact that he caused the people's resentment to boil and made the people hate the officers and soldiers, we would have recruited quite a number of soldiers by now.”
Liang Qianqiu wasn't a fool. He knew that Ye Qiu and Old Tie Cheng were just playing a double act. They didn't take this matter to heart at all.
To be precise, the so-called lack of money to recruit soldiers was actually an excuse, an excuse to scam money.
This Ye Qiu was completely tricking an honest person like him.
Liang Qianqiu took a deep breath. If he still didn't understand this, he would be the biggest idiot in the world.
"Leader Ye, if that's the case, then our cooperation will end here. Return the money to me now and we will still be friends.”Liang Qianqiu said.
"Then hurry up and return the money to Minister Liang.”Ye Qiu looked at Old Tie Cheng and said without hesitation.
Seeing how decisive Ye Qiu was, Liang Qianqiu was stunned.
He wanted it back just like that?
That simple?
Why did it feel like there was a trap?
As soon as Ye Qiu finished speaking, Old Tie Cheng immediately said with a sad face,"Chief, I don't have money.”
Liang Qianqiu's heart skipped a beat.
As expected, things were not that simple.
"No money?" Ye Qiu was furious. Didn't Minister Liang send over two million a few days ago? Where's the money?"
"Chief, you should know how Guangyang County has been ravaged by Li Hancheng. The commoners have no clothes to cover their bodies and no food to fill their stomachs. On the day that the money was sent, we had already arranged for them to buy some rice, grain, and clothes for the commoners.”Old Tie Cheng wanted to cry.
"Silly, how can you use Minister Liang's money to do this?”
"Chief, I have no choice. This is also for our recruitment. Think about it, the commoners hate us to the core now and will definitely not be our soldiers. If we build a good relationship with them, they will definitely be willing to be our soldiers.”Old Tie Cheng said.
Ye Qiu sighed before turning to Liang Qianqiu."Minister Liang, you know what happened. There's no money for the time being. Why don't you go back first and I'll give it to you when I earn money in the future? Or, when we have a good relationship with the people and recruit soldiers, we'll contact you to send troops to Chang 'an together?”
Liang Qianqiu was so angry that his entire body was trembling. He couldn't hold it in any longer."Ye Qiu, you're shameless."
After saying that, Liang Qianqiu flicked his sleeves and left.
After Liang Qianqiu left, Ye Qiu and Old Tie Cheng looked at each other and laughed.
"Brother, you're getting smarter and smarter. You know how to cooperate with me.”Ye Qiu said.
Old Tie Cheng smiled proudly.”
"Come on, I said you're fat, but you're still panting.”
"Chief, do you think Liang Shidu will send troops to attack us after we swindled him of two million taels?”
" What's there to be afraid of? We'll deal with whatever comes our way. Aren't Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong powerful? They were still defeated by us. So what if he's Liang shi?”Ye Qiu said.
"Haha, that's true. This Liang Qianqiu is really funny. There's a reason for giving gifts in this world, but there's no reason for receiving gifts in return. The money that was in our hands, and we still have to take it back. That's really amazing.”
