Chapter 116 That guy is here again
"What choice, you tell me!"
Zhang Tao spoke lightly.
Whatever Chen Kun says is his business, but whether he will listen is Zhang Tao's business.
I can listen to your opinions, but the decision is mine.
Chen Kun cleared his throat and then spoke word by word, "First, we should send soldiers to seize the Liao family's rice and deny them the opportunity to transport it out of the city!"
"Once this rice leaves the city, it's like throwing meat buns at a dog. It's gone and never comes back. We are already short of food in Barbarian City. We can't let this rice fall into Chen Xuan's hands!"
"And this Liu Jinyu, he is Chen Xuan's right-hand man, he must be killed!"
Hearing this, Zhang Tao shook his head.
He could see that Chen Kun and Liu Jinyu must have some personal grudges.
According to Chen Kun's first method, it would be equivalent to directly breaking up with Chen Xuan. Zhang Tao is not willing to do that at all now.
"Just say the second one." Zhang Tao said calmly.
Chen Kun secretly felt a little regretful that he couldn't kill Liu Jinyu this time. He didn't know when the next time would be and whether he would have this opportunity again.
However, the prefect was unwilling to take action, and Chen Kun would definitely not be the first to take action.
After a moment's silence, Chen Kun continued, "The second option is to turn a blind eye and pretend not to know. Let the Liao family and Chen Xuan resolve the grudge between them on their own."
"Based on my understanding of Liao Qing, he would definitely not be willing to suffer such a huge loss."
"Sir, you and I both know what kind of person Liao Qing's wife, whom he cannot speak of, is!"
He stopped talking here, but a foxy smile appeared on Chen Kun's face.
"Haha, it seems that Patriarch Chen and I are of the same mind."
Zhang Tao suddenly laughed.
Qin Baiye interrupted, "But that coward Liao Qing, would he dare to go look for his wife who can't speak? If he dares to go to the Tianshan Sect, the people of the Tianshan Sect will scatter his ashes!"
Zhang Tao's eyes flashed, and he sneered, "There's no need for him to go to Tianshan Sect in person. In a few days, the Tianshan Sect's annual disciple selection will begin. We have three spots in Mancheng. When the time comes, people from Tianshan Sect will come to Mancheng."
"We just need to have the people from Tianshan Sect tell Bai Susu that Liao Jun has been kidnapped."
"How could Bai Susu possibly watch her own son suffer such an injustice? Even if I can't go down the mountain myself, sending a few experts to deal with Chen Xuan should not be a problem."
"No matter how powerful Chen Xuan is, I can't match him. He is even more powerful than the masters of Tianshan Sect!"
Every sect selects some extremely talented people from all over the country as disciples every year. After being selected, these people will not directly become outer disciples, but will serve as servants of the sect.
To put it bluntly, they are the kind who do odd jobs, serving tea, pouring water and washing clothes for the outer and inner disciples.
Afterwards, the sect will select some talented people from among the servants to become outer disciples. After hard training, they will have the opportunity to become inner disciples.
Large sects are very strict in selecting disciples.
Usually a city would only recruit a few people.
The Tianshan Sect’s base is the twenty-four border cities, and every year they send people out to select a few talents from each city.
So, this is an opportunity!
"Then, Your Excellency, are we just going to let them ship the rice out like this?"
Chen Kun frowned. Seeing Chen Xuan living so comfortably made him very uncomfortable.
"If you want to stop it, you can personally lead people to stop it."
Zhang Tao spoke with a smile.
Chen Kun immediately shook his head.
You brought Ling Mo with you and mobilized a total of four thousand elite soldiers, but in the end you were unable to do anything to Chen Xuan.
How many people are there in my Chen family?
Although my Chen family also has martial arts masters.
But, he could even severely injure Ling Mo with one kick.
The martial artist of the Chen family is old and his bones can't stand the torture.
"Hmph, then let this Chen Xuan live happily for a few more days!"
Chen Kun snorted coldly.
Zhang Tao glanced at him and suddenly reminded him calmly, "Don't pin all your hopes on the Tianshan Sect. You can't delay your son going to find the bandits and let them deal with Chen Xuan. If the Tianshan Sect doesn't intend to deal with Chen Xuan, then using the bandits will come in handy!"
Don't put all your eggs in one basket.
It’s better to have two plans than just one!
"Don't worry, Your Excellency. My Chen family has already sent a number of people to look for the bandits. As soon as I have any news, I will inform you immediately!"
Chen Kun nodded.
It is impossible to ask them to suppress the bandits. We must preserve our own military strength.
But taking advantage of others is definitely feasible!
Soon, ten thousand shi of grain were gathered.
However, because there were too many of them and the Liao family had limited horse-drawn carriages, Liu Jinyu dragged both donkey carts and ox carts.
But it is still not enough, and we need to make several more trips back and forth.
"Never mind, let's get these out of the city first."
Liu Jinyu waved his hand and gave the order directly.
Soon, horse-drawn carriages, donkey-drawn carts, and ox-drawn carts carrying rice arrived at the city gate.
"Open the city gate for me!"
Liu Jinyu shouted loudly.
"Captain, that guy is here again!"
The soldiers guarding the city spoke quickly.
A captain frowned, looked at Liu Jinyu, and said, "Does the governor have an order to leave the city?"
Without a second thought, Liu Jinyu opened his mouth and started cursing: "You grandma's legs, open the door for me quickly, or I'll kill you!"
The centurion's face suddenly turned gloomy.
After all, he was a captain of a thousand men, in charge of a thousand soldiers. Apart from the governor and the commander, who else would dare to scold him like that?
As a result, Liu Jinyu not only scolded him, but also scolded him in public, which made him very embarrassed.
"You're not opening the door yet? Let me tell you, Master Chen is waiting outside the city. If he gets impatient, believe it or not, he'll just come in and kill you."
"Anyway, Master Chen has already killed a captain, and he's probably still on the road to the underworld. If you hurry up, maybe you can even find him on the road to the underworld."
Liu Jinyu continued to speak.
This time, Chen Xuan was brought out.
Sure enough, when the captain heard the name Chen Xuan, his face changed.
As the saying goes, a man's reputation is like the shadow of a tree.
Chen Xuan has a record of single-handedly killing a thousand-man captain, and it is still fresh and hot, as it happened just yesterday.
Even their leader suffered a great loss.
This kind of person must not be provoked.
"Friend, without the governor's order, you are not allowed to leave the city. Could you please allow me to send someone to inform him?"
The centurion clasped his fists and said with a stiff upper lip.
The attitude has softened.
"Open the city gate first and let my people out. I have to transport this rice back and forth several times, so I don't have time to waste with you."
Liu Jinyu spoke impatiently.
