Once they entered the troubled times, the Meng family was just a noble family. Although they had troops, it was limited. They didn't have descendants who could carry the flag. It was already difficult enough for them to survive in the troubled times with the little troops they had. How could they deal with the Meng family?

You think too much!

Qiguan Rang recovered from his initial shock and composed himself.

He had already mentally prepared himself for the shocking news.

"What else is there? Tell me all at once. With your audacious personality, I don't think this is all you have."

Jiang Pengji smiled shyly. Qiguan Rang felt a chill in his heart. He heard her say, "My accountant gave me an idea."

"What idea?"

Qiguan Rang asked again, and Jiang Pengji briefly explained Xu Ke's plan.

"This is indeed a very bold idea, and it's feasible. However, what's troubling is where will the first batch of rice come from?" Jiang Pengji suddenly smiled. "I was just worrying about it when Meng Liang appeared. Wouldn't it be a pity if I didn't make use of him?"

Xu Ke was stumped by Jiang Pengji. He didn't know what she was going to do next, but Qiguan Rang could see it clearly.

It was precisely because he could see everything clearly that he was dumbfounded by Jiang Pengji's thick skin, which was as thick as the corner of a city wall.

"Are you trying to tell me that you want to use Meng Liang to exchange for a large amount of grain from the Meng family? Then, you want the captain to kill Meng Liang to vent his anger? You want to tell the public that the captain has already been killed by you. You want to use Meng Liang's life as a favor to recruit the captain and let him bear the anger of the Meng family?"

How could he be so thick-skinned!

You've reaped all the benefits, but you're still acting like you're at a disadvantage. 【Love ↑ Go △ Small ↓ Say △ Net





"Ah, you forgot something. If the commandant 'dies' in my hands, I can ask the Meng's for another sum of money."

Qiguan Rang, "…"

Not only that, she could also use the grain she got from the Meng's to swindle those aristocratic families who had money and grain.

From the beginning to the end, she didn't put in any capital, but after a round of rolling, she was able to earn a lot.

Qiguan Rang was puzzled, so he asked an important question.

"But why are you telling me such an important matter?"

Jiang Pengji said, "Mr. Wei is interested in finding a son-in-law, but Wenzheng has no assets. Which of the three letters and six rites do you want to remove?"

Qiguan Rang was silent.

After a while, he said, "Is Lanting trying to buy people's hearts with this?"

Was he that cheap?

Telling him all this in the name of roping him in, was actually dragging him down with them.

If he failed, everyone would die together. If he succeeded, he would be able to earn a small profit.

No matter how he thought about it, he felt that … he was at a disadvantage.

Jiang Pengji raised her hand and patted his shoulder, but she was short, so she could only pat his arm.

"It's not about the value of the gift, it's about the thoughtfulness."

Caring to the point of taking his life?

Qiguan Rang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but surprisingly, he didn't reject it.

He had to admit that Liu Xi — Liu Lanting's temperament was just to his liking. They were too compatible!

Xu Ke heard about Jiang Pengji's arrival and hurried over. He saw his Langjun sitting opposite a cold-looking young man. The former was smiling and talking, while the latter's face was still cold, but his expression was gentle and his eyes were full of vigor.

"Ke greets you, Langjun."

Xu Ke cupped his hands in greeting, but he secretly sized up Qiguan Rang. A strange look flashed in his eyes.

Qiguan Rang saw that Xu Ke's face was covered with a thick white cloth, which covered the mark of punishment. He frowned but didn't say a word.

"Wenzheng, this is my accountant, Xu Ke. Xu Xiaoyu, I'll leave the troops to him for now."

Qiguan Rang's relaxed attitude became serious when he heard Xu Ke's name.

He didn't miss the fact that the plan Jiang Pengji had mentioned came from this person named Xu Ke.

"He's a brave one." Qiguan Rang's lips curled stiffly. He was more interested in Xu Ke now.

It was a kind of intuition. It was as if he had smelled the scent of a kindred spirit. Even if Xu Ke was different from him, the two of them were quite compatible.

Compared to open and aboveboard schemes, he and Xu Ke were more adept at sinister and treacherous schemes. Naturally, their auras were similar.

"This is … my future brother-in-law …" Jiang Pengji stared at Qiguan Rang's gloomy gaze. She was not afraid of lowering his seniority, but it wasn't really lowering his seniority. Qiguan Rang's seniority was lower than Wei Yuan's. "He's also an interesting person."

Xu Ke took the opportunity of cupping his hands in greeting and secretly rolled his eyes.

Every time his Langjun said that someone was interesting, he knew that the person was probably a black-hearted person.

Birds of a feather flocked together. A playmate attracted by his Langjun's temperament was definitely not a good person.

Jiang Pengji did not avoid Qiguan Rang and asked Xu Ke, "Did those people come last night?"

Xu Ke looked at Qiguan Rang cautiously, but the latter was calm.

"They came in the middle of the night."

Jiang Pengji's smile brightened. "Did they take everything?"

Xu Ke nodded. "Yes, they did."

Qiguan Rang silently listened to the conversation between the black-hearted master and servant. He secretly broke into a cold sweat for the rumored kind-hearted and honest County Chief.

"I'll go change my clothes first. Xiaoyu, please entertain Wenzheng for me." Jiang Pengji got up and went to the farm master's room to change into a set of brown clothing that was easy to move around in. She was wearing layers of clothing that were complicated and gorgeous, but it still could not change the fact that the bottom part of her clothing was exposed.

Without Jiang Pengji present, Qiguan Rang could openly size up Xu Ke. He did not have the slightest bit of stage fright, and the two of them exchanged glances.

Jiang Pengji, who moved swiftly and efficiently, changed her clothes into a brown one: "…"

Although it was popular to be gay these days, the two of them were looking at each other affectionately. As a companion, she was very nervous.

"Cough, cough, cough …"

The fake cough that could not be more fake broke the tense atmosphere between the two of them.

It was the first time Qiguan Rang saw Jiang Pengji wear brown clothing. He could not help but raise his eyebrows. "Why did you change into this?"

Although brown clothing was convenient to move around in, it was worn by commoners or poor families.

An aristocratic family like Jiang Pengji wouldn't even touch it, let alone wear it. Moreover, according to the rules of etiquette, it was not in line with etiquette. If some old scholars saw it, they would probably criticize her for not understanding etiquette.

"Aren't clothes made for people to wear? As long as it's comfortable to wear, then it's a piece of clothing. It's also valuable. It looks gorgeous, but it's a hindrance when you wear it. It's better to hang it on a hanger to admire. Why do you make yourself uncomfortable? " Jiang Pengji said indifferently, "Wenzheng is not a stubborn person. Will you be angry because I'm wearing brown clothing?"
