Lu Chen said, "I won't hide it from General Tibit. After the war between the Xia Xia and the Persian Empire, I predicted that there would be a shortage of food. I have a lot of food, but I haven't sold it yet. I hope that General Tibit can introduce me to the people in charge of purchasing food. I'm willing to sell my food to the army. This is a business I want to do. Similarly, I'm willing to give General Tibit 20% of the profits from this business. "
This was Lu Chen's reason.
Tempting with profits.
This was the only way to attract Tibit. Otherwise, Tibit might suspect Lu Chen's intentions.
After hearing this, Tibit's expression changed. Although he had some small businesses, they didn't make much money. However, his expenses weren't small either. After all, he had a wife at home, so he spent a lot. If Lu Chen wanted to do business here, he would be able to make a lot of money through his connections.
This was an opportunity.
Tibit frowned and said, "Wait a moment. Let me think about it."
Lu Chen nodded and waited.
However, Lu Chen was relieved. Since Tibit chose to think about it, it meant that he would agree.
After a moment of silence, Tibit nodded and said, "No problem!"
He had a lot of connections in the military. Moreover, the current military really did need food. They were all buying food from outside. Tibito could also gain a lot of benefits from Lu Chen. Therefore, Tibito was naturally willing to use this strategy. This way, Tibit could also get a share of the profits.
Lu Chen said, "Thank you, General Tibit. This way, we can make money together."
Tibit shook his head and said, "Lu Chen, don't be so happy. Although I agree, I have a condition. My condition isn't 20%, but 30% of the profits. "
Lu Chen said, "General Tibit, I'll give you 30% of the profits. After all, doing business is being a person. This is the first time I'm talking to General Tibit. Once we get familiar with each other, General Tibit will know that I, Lu Chen, am a very particular person. I won't act recklessly. "
Tibit nodded and said, "I hope so."
Lu Chen changed the topic and said, "Everyone knows General Tibit's hobby. I have ten jars of wine here. They can be called peerless wine. The wine is just outside the camp. Should I send it in immediately? "
When Tibit heard this, he smiled and said, "Of course I'll send it in immediately. You said that it's a peerless wine. If it's not, then you have to be careful. I, Tibit, will not tolerate sand in my eyes. "
Lu Chen replied, "I guarantee that General Tibit will remember this for the rest of his life!"
"Men, bring in the wine."
Lu Chen immediately ordered.
The soldier who had been waiting outside the tent replied and immediately went to make the arrangements. After a short while, ten jars of wine were sent into the tent.
With a smile on his face, Lu Chen waved his hand and said, "Please have a taste."
Dibit nodded.
He walked up to a jar of wine and reached out to remove the seal. The moment the seal was removed, a rich wine fragrance wafted out. Just by smelling it, Tibitt's face was filled with disbelief as he said, "Good wine, good wine! I've tasted this wine before. It's brewed by Xia Xia, and it's hard to find even a single jar in Bolang. You actually have ten jars of wine here. "
Lu Chen also had a pained expression as he said in a deep voice, "General Tibit, I've been saving these ten jars of wine for many years. A few years ago, I went back to Xia Xia to buy them and have never drunk them. Now, I'm giving them all to General Tibit. After all, working together with General Tibit is equivalent to being friends. Doing things as a person first is my point of view. I treat you as one of my own, so I'm naturally willing to give you the best wine in my collection. "
"Well said!"
Tibit gave a thumbs up and praised, "Lu Chen, I'm definitely going to make friends with you."
A smile appeared on Lu Chen's face.
It's done!
Lu Chen didn't say anything else and turned to leave. As for Tibit, he couldn't wait to start drinking. He didn't drink from a wine bottle, but from a large bowl. He drank one bowl after another. If it was ordinary wine, it wouldn't be so bad. However, this kind of high alcohol content wine was different. After drinking a mouthful, it would make one feel dizzy.
Lu Chen didn't need to worry about Tibit drinking because with Tibit's nature, he would definitely drink. Moreover, he would drink in large mouthfuls. While Tibit was drinking, Lu Chen returned to his residence. When he saw Meng Huan, he told him about meeting Tibit and selling food.
In the end, Tibit said, "Brother Meng, the reason I told you about food can be delayed for a while. The problem is, it won't last for long. At most, it will last for half a month. How long will your plan take? If it isn't completed by then, it will be difficult for me. For this matter, I told a big lie. "
Meng Huan said, "I said earlier that it won't take long. It will be completed within half a month."
Lu Chen said, "Now, can you tell me why you're here?"
Meng Huan asked, "Brother Lu, do you really want to know?"
"Yes!"
Lu Chen said, "I believe that Brother Meng won't harm me, so I want to know what you are doing."
Meng Huan said, "I'm Xia Xia's man."
Lu Chen raised his eyebrows.
He understood.
Lu Chen said seriously, "I already understand what Brother Meng is doing. But what I want to say is that Brother Meng is Xia Xia's man, and I'm also Xia Xia's man. Although I'm just an ordinary person, as Xia Xia's man, everyone is responsible for this matter. Brother Meng, if there's anything else you need me to do, just tell me. As long as I can do it, I won't refuse. "
Meng Huan said, "Thank you, Brother Lu. I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave first."
Meng Huan got up and bid farewell.
After leaving the Lu family, he went straight back to his residence to wait. Everything had been arranged. He just needed to wait. Meng Huan saw Lai Ji and explained the situation.
Lai Ji asked, "Meng Huan, do you know how to play chess?"
Meng Huan said, "A little!"
Lai Ji said, "In that case, let's play chess to pass the time. Everything has been prepared. All we need to do is wait. There will be news about this matter soon. "
Meng Huan nodded and said, "Indeed."
He asked someone to bring over a set of chess and played with Lai Ji. The two of them played chess without realizing it. Two hours passed in the blink of an eye. At this time, there was a knock on the door outside the study.
Meng Huan said, "Come in!"
The door was pushed open. It was the steward of the residence who came in and handed over the latest news. Meng Huan opened the letter and looked at it with a joyful expression. He said, "Mister Lai, it's done. I asked Lu Chen to send wine, and Tibitt drank it immediately. He was so drunk that he was yelling and screaming in a drunken frenzy. The ordinary soldiers we sent to meet him were all beaten black and blue. "
"This matter has already spread in the army. After the news spreads, Kass will soon know. Let's see how Kass will deal with it. At this time, Kass will most likely punish him severely. "
Meng Huan's eyes were full of expectation. He said, "Kass will be punished no matter what. As long as he takes care of Lu Chen, your people can use Zhao Qingyao to blow pillow talk to Tibitt. In the end, it will be easy for us to recruit him. "
Lai Ji's plan was not complicated.
The first step was to let Lu Chen get close to Tibitt. It was said to be business, but in reality, it was to let Tibitt get drunk and vent his anger. As for the people who went to see Tibit, they were actually soldiers who had already surrendered to the Xia Kingdom.
The second step was to drive a wedge between Tibitt and Kass, causing conflict between them.
The third step was to persuade Tibitt.
The fourth step was to recruit Tibitt.
Only when Tibitt was angry in his heart would he be able to recruit him. Otherwise, it would not be easy to instigate Tibit to betray him on a normal day.
Lai Ji smiled and said, "Right now, we just need to wait for news and see how Kass will deal with it. I hope that he will punish him severely, or even kill the chicken to warn the monkey. "
Meng Guan nodded.
Both of them had smiles on their faces. They were even looking forward to it.
