Chapter 935 It Doesn't Matter Who He Is
Chen Fang went to the small world to log and saw no one for two days. Jimo and the others also laid the floor of the house for two days, but because they couldn't bear the cold ground at night, they had no choice but to move back to their original residence.
Only during the day, come and use the exotic flowers and plants cultivated by buds to fill the vacant flower beds in the house and add a vitality to the house.
After waiting anxiously for another day, the girls complained why Chen Fang hadn't come back, and when they were discussing whether to go to him, Chen Fang came back without waiting for him to answer the girls' various questions. At the time of the request, a soldier came to report that an envoy had arrived from Jiangcheng and was waiting at the gate of the city.
So Chen Fang was dragged over by Mei Mei and Jimo again.
When he arrived at the city gate, Chen Fang saw a beast carriage, surrounded by three servants and a few Jiangcheng soldiers, the envoy did not get out of the carriage for the time being, and stayed in the very old-looking carriage.
"Didn't you say that Jiang He is the most beloved son of the city lord of Jiangcheng? No matter how you look at it, you don't pay enough attention to such a poor envoy."
Chen Fang was a little puzzled and had some guesses.
Could it be that the other party deliberately sent this kind of envoy in order to cover up, fearing that the lion on my side would speak loudly, to show that his side doesn't really take Jiang He seriously, so as to lower the price?
"Then I don't know, don't talk about it, let's receive it first."
Charming finished speaking and walked forward.
"Please get off the messenger, the roads in the city are dilapidated, it is inconvenient to travel, please walk, please do not take offense."
Saying this does not mean to give the other party a bad blow. The fact is that the new city is built, and when the houses and other facilities have not been built, the roads will be repaired last. Otherwise, people will come and go to transport stones and wood. What, press back and forth, it's useless to fix it.
"Squeak."
The door of the carriage opened, and a young man with an ordinary appearance and a mediocre temperament came down and came in front of Chen Fang and the others.
"Hi, I'm Jianghu, from Jiangcheng, the second son of the city lord. I'm here to discuss with Guicheng about the prisoners, and I want to meet the very powerful commander who defeated our army."
The young man's tone is gentle and humble, without any arrogance, neither alienating nor overly enthusiastic attitude, and facing the two beauties, Mei Mei and Jimo, his eyes are also the same, and the whole person is very cultivated Feel.
Second son? !
Chen Fang and the two women looked at each other in surprise.
"What is the Lord of Jiangcheng thinking? He actually sent his son out. Isn't he afraid that we will catch him and ask for a ransom?" Chen Fang whispered.
Charming and Jimo were also very surprised that the other party had such an identity, but they rolled their eyes after hearing Chen Fang's words.
But it’s good to be a person with a bottom line. There is no way to arrest someone’s messenger and ask for a ransom, and the reputation is bad.
Even if this world doesn't have any latent rules about not killing people in times of war, there are still some conventions that draw the bottom line.
For example, if you arrest the envoy casually and ask someone for a ransom, this is more morally corrupt than killing the envoy. If you spread your reputation, no one will do business or communicate with you in the future.
Wu Mei slapped Chen Fang, telling him to be more serious, and then politely said to Jianghu: "I am Wu Mei, and they are Jimo and Chen Fang. We know the purpose of your envoy's visit. There is a lot of sand and dust here, so it is not suitable for conversation. Please Follow us inside."
Jiang Hu nodded, his expression was still peaceful, without any embarrassment or fear, he led his servants and soldiers into the city gate very calmly following behind You Mei.
"There is no energy fluctuation in this person. As an ordinary person, when we have just fought a battle, he is not afraid at all when we come to the hostile territory. Is he brave or fearless?"
Chen Fang looked at the rivers and lakes who followed Mei Mei leisurely, feeling a little admiration, but also a little doubt.
Jimo shook his head lightly, indicating that she didn't know either.
Mei Mei led everyone to the house where Gong Xiaobai usually works and will be used as the city hall in the future. After entering, she led Jianghu to the meeting hall.
After the two parties sat down, they didn't chat and went directly to the topic.
"Among the three, is there a commander who defeated my Jiangcheng army?"
"If not, could you come and see me?"
After Jiang Hu sat down, he couldn't wait to speak.
"Can I ask why you want to see him?" Charming asked.
Jiang Hu smiled sassyly, and said without hesitation: "I want to thank him for letting me out."
Chen Fang and the three looked at each other.
Bad breath?
Killing your soldiers and capturing your people, you actually said that you were angry, this...
Seeing that Chen Fang and the others were puzzled and suspicious, Jianghu explained with a smile: "To tell you the truth, I don't have a good relationship with my family, and I don't have much affection for Jiangcheng."
Chen Fang frowned when he heard this, this person was very strange, he said what it was for as soon as he came up, and he went round and round.
"Sorry, that commander is not in the city." Charming replied.
Chen Fang scratched his head, didn't he just open his eyes and talk nonsense, I'm right here, what happened if I said it.
But he is not stupid, after thinking for a while, he understood why Meimei said that.
The other party said thank you, but he was not sure what was on his mind. Who knew what he was planning, so he could not disclose it to be on the safe side.
Jiang Hu showed a regretful expression, "Well, I thought I could see it, it's really a pity."
Wu Mei is a straightforward person, and she didn't want to waste time on other matters, so she said directly: "May I ask if you are here this time, are you going to discuss the ransom with us? If so, let's hurry up."
"As you can see, our city is under construction, and there are still many things to be busy, and time is tight, so we can't waste it on other things."
The underlying meaning of this is that I have something to talk about, and I have no time to talk to you about other things.
Although Mei Mei didn't say it very blatantly, her words would also be impolite, but Jiang Hu was not angry, and still said calmly and with a smile:
"Well, let's talk about the business. I'm here this time to know how much ransom you need in order to let go of my city soldiers, as well as my brother and uncle."
Charming looked serious and said: "Maybe we deliberately sent back the person who brought the message and didn't tell you clearly, which made you misunderstood. There are only two people who can be sent back when we ask for a ransom, and we won't release soldiers. back."
The new city has not been built, there are few workers, and the population is small after construction, so those captives will never be let go.
Jiang Hu froze when he heard the original indifferent expression, and said: "You are not joking."
What's the matter, if only Jiang He and Tang Huang are redeemed to go back, what's the point of his coming this time.
"Of course not, just those two people, one hundred thousand gold coins, take it out, and they will take it away for you without saying a word." Chen Fang said.
Jiang He glanced at Chen Fang, then ignored him, and continued to say to Yu Mei: "Isn't it appropriate? The soldiers are from Jiangcheng, and their ancestors lived in Jiangcheng. Isn't it too much for you not to let him go?"
ignore me!
Chen Fang became angry, "That was in the past, but now they are our captives, whether to sell them... Bah, let them go, it's our business, you can control them."
Jiang He's face darkened, "Could it be that your side treats the person who talks about things in good faith with this attitude, and who is he, what is his status, and he can make the decision?"
Just as Chen Fang wanted to say that if he does not make the decision, whoever will make the decision, he was stopped by Charming.
"It doesn't matter who he is, the important thing is that what he said is indeed what we want to express." Charming said.
Chen Fang's head was full of black lines.
What do you mean it doesn't matter who I am?
I'm very important, okay, it's not me, how did Jiangcheng's army lose and how did the prisoners be captured?
But Chen Fang wasn't angry because Meimei said that, he knew that Meimei was just diluting his sense of identity in Jiang Hu's heart.
