Zhao Tai wanted to force Li Fen down to satisfy his own evil taste.
However, Li Fen was also a man who wanted to save face, so he gritted his teeth and insisted on returning to the cabin before vomiting.
At this time, Zhao Tai saw their ship returning to Haizhou and waved: "Go back to the island."
Not long after, Zhao Tai returned to the island. He drank several drinks and was a little drunk, but instead of resting, he went to see someone.
Because Li Fen and Zhao Tai did not trust each other, they each sent a hostage before the meeting.
The person Zhao Tai sent over was Sun Li, and the person Li Fen sent over was Yang You.
Now that the meeting is over, both sides need to release people immediately. Zhao Tai must seize the time to meet with Yang You and give Yang You some instructions.
After Yang You came to the island, he was locked in a room.
He is Zhao Tai's mastermind. After he comes here, he doesn't have to worry about Zhao Tai being unfavorable to him, so he should eat and drink and live a comfortable life.
At this time, he was drinking Songhe wine and gnawing on a chicken leg in his hand. The door was suddenly pushed open and someone came in. It was Zhao Tai with a handsome face.
Yang You quickly dropped the chicken legs, wiped his hands on his body, cupped his fists and bowed, "Mr.
Zhao Tai smiled, nodded, and said casually: "Sit down!"
Zhao Tai directly pulled a stool and sat down opposite him. Seeing this, Yang You dared to sit down.
Zhao Tai continued: "You have done a lot to get Li Fen to sign a secret contract this time. I will remember you! In the future, if you complete your mission, I will not hesitate to reward you. At least I will make you a marquis!"
Listening to Zhao Tai painting cakes for him, Yang You felt a little excited, but he soon sobered up. Zhao Tai himself worked for others, how could he have the ability to make himself a marquis.
Although he saw through the past, he did not tell the truth.
After all, his control was in Zhao Tai's hands, so he could only show joy and echoed with a smile: "For this humble position, I'll thank my husband for the promotion first."
Zhao Tai nodded with satisfaction, and then handed the secret contract he had just signed with Li Fen to Yang You, "Put this away!"
Yang You couldn't help but ask: "Ms. sir, what is this?"
Zhao Tai smiled and said: "This is the secret agreement I just signed with Li Fen. I will hand him over to you now, you have to keep it well!"
Yang You was a little confused. Zhao Tai worked hard and gave Li Fen so many supplies almost for nothing before signing a secret agreement with Li Fen. How could he just change the hands and hand them over to him?
"Ms. sir, why do you let me keep such an important thing?" Yang You asked his doubts.
Zhao Tai grinned and revealed his real purpose, "Put this thing away. After you go back, you have to get the information about the transaction between Li Fen and me, as well as the account books. Then at the right time, you can take it with you These people should go to see Kuo Duan or other Mongolians and tell them that Li Fen secretly colluded with me to prepare for rebellion."
As soon as these words came out, Yang You was shocked.
He didn't expect that Zhao Tai went around in a big circle and actually wanted to frame Li Fen and use the Mongols to force Li Fen to rebel.
Yang Yan was shocked in his heart and his head was buzzing. Li Fen and others wanted to make money from Zhao Tai, but Zhao Tai wanted their lives.
After all, Yang You and Li Fen were relatives. If he did this, Li Fen might be killed by him.
Zhao Tai saw Yang You's dull expression and some fear in his eyes, and couldn't help but said: "Do you have questions?"
When Yang You came back to his senses, he felt that the handsome Zhao Tai in front of him made him shudder. From the bottom of his heart, he felt that Zhao Tai was a bit scary, "I don't dare to do this in a humble position!"
Zhao Tai smiled and said: "Don't worry, I don't want to kill Li Fen, I just help him make the right choice. You must also be able to see that I have a background in the Song Dynasty. With the fall of the Jin Kingdom, the Song Dynasty will face Mongolia and Shandong One place will become the focus of contention. If Li Fen is forced to rebel by the Mongols, the Song Dynasty and I will raise troops and we will not let him be annihilated by the Mongols!"
Zhao Tai continued to draw cakes. After hearing this, Yang You finally felt relieved. He couldn't help but admired, "My husband's plan really makes me admire him so much!"
Zhao Tai nodded with satisfaction, "It's getting late. If Li Fen becomes suspicious, you should return to Haizhou immediately. As for when you will take action, just wait for my news!"
Yang You apologized and saluted, and then hurriedly left the island and returned to Haizhou by boat. Sun Li was also returned to Donghai Island by Li Fen.
Li Fen vomited wildly on the boat and was almost carried off the boat.
He slept in the cabin until the next morning, then woke up leisurely, feeling exhausted.
At this time, he got up, washed his face, took the tea soup brought by his subordinates and took a sip. Then he remembered what happened yesterday, so he quickly asked someone to find the secret agreement he signed with Zhao Tai for inspection.
Li Fen took it and unfolded it, reading it one by one. There was no big problem in the content, except for one that made him frown.
According to this stipulation, Zhao Tai sold grain, iron, cloth, and tea to him at preferential prices. In addition to paying for the goods, he also needed to provide Zhao Tai with the same goods, which were horses.
Horses are important strategic materials. Selling horses to Zhao Tai is tantamount to endangering the enemy. Once discovered by the Mongols, the consequences will be disastrous.
Li Fen couldn't help but slap his forehead, "Drinking will cause trouble! Go and call Peng Huizu!"
Not long after, Peng Huizu came over. When he saw Li Fen, he smiled and said: "Commander, you're awake! That Song River wine is very strong, so you can't drink too much. But Zhao Tai's drinking capacity is really extraordinary. Even a low-ranking official might not be able to drink him!"
Seeing that Peng Huizu did not hide his admiration for Zhao Tai, Li Fen took out the secret treaty with a dark face, "I remember yesterday, I let you read the treaty. There was a horse sale in it, why didn't you remind me handsome?"
"Oh, really?" Peng Huizu looked surprised and stepped forward to take it and take a look. "It must have been exposed because I didn't look carefully at the time. However, Zhao Tai sold us supplies and we sold them horses, which is also very important." It’s normal!”
Peng Huizu actually saw it at the time, but he was stationed in Haizhou and the agreement was reached, which would benefit him a lot, so he didn't remind Li Fen.
"The nature of buying supplies from Zhao Tai is different from selling horses to him, do you understand?" Li Fen was quite annoyed.
Peng Huizu said: "What should we do? The secret agreement has been signed. Do we want to tear it up and stop doing business?"
Li Fen heard this, exhaled heavily, and finally compromised, "Business must be done! Alas! You must be careful when sending horses to Zhao Tai, so that the Mongols can't notice!"
Peng Huizu said: "Commander, don't worry. We will buy horses from the Mongols on the pretext of forming a cavalry. At that time, we will find a few more tribes and buy them separately. They don't know how many horses we bought in total!"
Li Fen nodded, "This is the only way!"
Li Fen had some concerns about the need to buy horses for Zhao Tai, but his concerns were quickly forgotten because the first batch of goods was successfully sold and he made a net profit of 30,000 yuan.
As real money came into his account, Li Fen immediately became addicted to the huge profits brought by the smuggling trade, unaware that he was falling into Zhao Tai's trap. Deep down, he began to like Zhao Tai.
