Those who were good at fighting had no illustrious achievements. When things had just started, or even when there was only a hint of it, he had resolved it. Although it seemed calm and peaceful, it was actually more skillful.
Compared to being forced into a corner and suddenly counterattacking, sending Jung Genzun to Jixia Academy, and using Xu Fang to implicate the Jubao Merchants, the way Chung Geng Sheng dealt with Wen Lianmu made Jiang Wang sigh in admiration.
Simple, direct, and without any ripples, he easily smoothed things over.
Therefore, Jiang Wang was actually very curious about what this fatty had prepared.
"What do you plan to do?" Jiang Wang asked.
Chung Geng Sheng clicked his tongue and said, "I'd better not say it. People like me are always beating around the bush. I'm afraid you'll get dizzy!"
"That's true." Jiang Wang held his hand and said, "I get dizzy easily. It's only suitable for me to study Dao techniques and practice swordsmanship! It just so happens that my new swordsmanship is not complete yet. Can you practice it with me? "
"Look at what you're saying." The fat on Chung Geng Sheng's face jiggled, and he forced a smile. "Oh right, what did you ask just now? What do I plan to do, right? We're best friends. If you have any doubts, how can I not tell you? "
As he spoke, he changed the topic. "Now that the whole of Linzi knows that Wang Yiwu has begun to fight with me, it's the best time for me to make a move on the Jubao Merchants!"
Previously, when the Eleventh Prince Jiang Wuqi attacked, Chung Geng Sheng immediately stopped and gave him a certain degree of respect. He also acted very cautiously.
It was indeed unexpected that he would turn around and attack the Jubao Merchants at such a time when he was fighting with Wang Yiwu.
Even Jiang Wang, who was on the same side as him, did not expect this. "It's indeed an unexpected move. It's also necessary to kill the Jubao Merchants. But at this moment, was it the most important thing? Now that Su She was pretending to be dead, all the Jubao Merchants had ceased their activities, and there was no way they could help Wang Yiwu. Wouldn't it be better to just ignore them? It won't be too late to turn back after you've dealt with Wang Yiwu, right? "
"What I'm afraid of is that after dealing with Wang Yiwu, or after being dealt with by Wang Yiwu, the limelight would be over. Su She doesn't need to play dead anymore. " Chung Geng Sheng shook his head. "If I hadn't grasped his weakness and forced him to retreat, he would have been even harder to deal with than Wen Lianmu."
Jiang Wang had his own considerations. He didn't give up on thinking just because Chung Geng Sheng was smarter than most people. "It's like fighting. Compared to facing two opponents at the same time, it's definitely a better choice to deal with one first and then the other. Wang Yiwu is not easy to deal with, and neither is Su She. Don't be too careless. "
"You're right. But what we're facing isn't just fighting. What we have to consider isn't just victory or opponents. We have to see both on and off the stage. "
Chung Geng Sheng explained, "Do you know what kind of person Wen Lianmu is? For five consecutive years, he ranked first in the art of war. He's the most famous genius of the younger generation. His reputation in the art of war was even close to that of the War God's eldest disciple, Chen Zeqing. "
"Of course, the art of war isn't the same as strategy. In Linzi, he might not have been able to do as well as he did on the battlefield. I'm not saying all this to boost his morale or diminish my own. But you have to know, since this kind of person was hired by Wang Yiwu and painstakingly plotted against me, wouldn't he have considered my counterattack? "
"I have a lot of information now, and I see many opportunities every day. But I don't dare to grab any of them, because I don't know which one is his trap. Before I step into it, I really don't know. "
"But why should I target and counterattack him? Don't you understand? "
In fact, Chung Geng Sheng had been guiding Jiang Wang in these areas all this time.
He knew very well that Jiang Wang wasn't stupid. He just lacked experience in these areas.
"Competition mainly focuses on two points: weakening the opponent and strengthening oneself. We don't have to only focus on the former. That's petty. " Chung Geng Sheng said, "If I were to eat up the Jubao Merchants, would Wang Yiwu be able to hold on by himself?"
Jiang Wang was convinced.
It was the same problem, but Zhong Xuan Sheng had indeed seen it further and more deeply than him.
To be able to pry open Jung Genzun's almost certain position as the head of the family, this fatty's ability was becoming more and more recognized by everyone, including Jiang Wang.
"Eat … the Jubao Merchants. How? "Jiang Wang racked his brains but still couldn't figure it out.
After all, the Jubao Merchants were such a huge existence. It was already shocking that they could beat Su She until he pretended to be dead.
The newly established Desheng Trading Company didn't have the appetite to eat up the Jubao Merchants. Even the Four Seas Business Alliance couldn't do it. If they could, Qing Xi wouldn't have held back.
Chung Geng Sheng laughed and said, "I'm just bragging. Of course, food should be eaten one bite at a time. Things should be done step by step. "
He squinted his eyes and said, "If you want to eat meat, kill the pig first!"
…
From this day on, the news suddenly spread like wildfire in Linzi.
The Qi Emperor was very dissatisfied with the Jubao Merchants' support in dethroning the Crown Prince in the early years. He wanted to settle the score.
The source of the news was unknown, but it became more and more intense.
The Jubao Merchants, who wanted to live a low-key life by cutting off their meat and pretending to be dead, were once again dragged into the teeth of the storm.
In the "Cornucopia".
After kneeling outside the Green Stone Palace, Su She ran around outside for a day and returned empty-handed. He locked himself in the headquarters of the Jubao Merchants. He didn't leave the main door, didn't take a step out, and started to study in seclusion.
He allowed the Four Seas Business Alliance and Chung Geng Sheng to crazily suppress the businesses of the Jubao Merchants. He watched as the shops closed down and changed owners.
The huge Jubao Merchants were silent when their meat was cut off. They didn't seem to resist at all. There was no movement during the whole process. For a moment, the Jubao Merchants seemed to be "invisible".
As a result, many people began to wonder if the Treasure Gathering Chamber of Commerce was already gone.
Of course, in the eyes of the truly smart people, this was undoubtedly the wisest choice when the Qi Emperor's attitude was unclear.
Temporary profits and losses were secondary. The Emperor's likes and dislikes were the most important thing that concerned the survival of the Chamber of Commerce.
If they were to jump up and down at this time, no matter what they did, it would inevitably attract the Emperor's attention. At that time, fortune and disaster would be hard to predict.
Hence, Su She pretended to be dead on the surface and acted as if he was willing to be beaten or scolded. He was absolutely loyal and willing to be punished by the Emperor.
As for how many favors he had secretly used to make the name of the Jubao Merchants fade away from the Emperor's ears, no one knew.
Ever since the Eleventh Prince, Jiang Wuqi, appeared on Mount Yunwu, Chung Geng Sheng had already stopped. After the Four Seas Business Alliance took a few bites of meat, their cautious and joyful attitude also became gentler.
Everything was in line with Su She's expectations.
Until such a piece of news suddenly spread. Furthermore, it spread so quickly that it spread all over Linzi.
"How foolish and laughable. How can such a crude rumor spread like this?" Another vice president sneered.
This vice president's surname was Li, and he was extremely experienced. He agreed with Su She's previous judgment. He had also endured hiding for so long and waited for an opportunity. He had actually seen the light at the end of the tunnel.
Hence, when he heard such a piece of news, he felt that it was especially absurd. "If the Emperor really wanted to deal with the Jubao Merchants, would we still be alive?"
Su She tapped the armrest with his finger. "We have to deal with this immediately. We can't let people reach a consensus."
"What consensus?" Vice president Li wasn't willing to change his strategy of playing dead. "We've endured for so long, and it's about to come to an end. Are we going to change our strategy so easily?"
"What consensus?" Su She said coldly. "If the Emperor wants to deal with the Jubao Merchants, we're doomed."
"What kind of consensus is this? It's completely fake. What consensus? It's ridiculous and ridiculous! Do we even need to care about such a so-called 'consensus'? " Vice president Li was so angry that he laughed. He even suspected that Su She's brain was damaged from the blow.
Cheng Shiyi also didn't think that there was a need to care about such a rumor. You didn't even say anything when I cut off your flesh. You can't even take a few scoldings? This didn't make sense.
However, since the two presidents had different opinions, she couldn't express her true thoughts. She could only mediate the situation. "Dean, what's the point of such a rumor?"
"Remember this." Su She looked at the two of them coldly. "A false consensus is still a consensus."
