On that day, the north was windy and the snow was falling all over the sky finally stopped. However, the temperature did not rise but fell. It was covered with silver everywhere, snow was covered with ice, and the land of Liangzhou was still in a storm.

Moreover, as the snow eased, various conspiracies and battles that were blocked by the wind and snow became popular.

Meng Zhao, Si Peng, Xiang Qing and Wei Hua walked out of Hushan and headed to Jichang County, border county of Yongjian County. On the way, there were no less than ten bandits. The martial artists and strong men fought against each other, and they fought for no less than twenty times, and they could be said to be fighting everywhere.

The fields along the way were deserted and the people withered, and most of them were left with only some elderly people dying, and even froze to death and starving in their own houses because of the cold and hunger. The number was difficult to clarify.

As for the governments set up in various places in the Dayong court, seven or eighteen years of government officials were paralyzed, and officials fled. The real masters of the country had already been replaced by powerful forces from all over the country.

What he saw and heard along the way was also called Si Peng, Xiang Qing and Wei Hua, who rarely came out of the mountain, were both surprised and happy.

What was shocking was that the situation in Liangzhou was so corrupt that the court had not yet come up with a charter to relieve the disaster. I wonder what the whole house was thinking, or what was difficult to describe.

What I am happy about is that such chaos is actually a good thing for their Shenwei Army.

If they are not chaotic, if they are not defeated, if they still maintain the characteristics of Liangzhou being brave, fierce, and brave, they will be afraid that they will not cause any storm.

Now, it has given ambitious people, including Shenweijun and Meng Zhao, an opportunity to realize their great wishes.

As for everyone's goal of this trip, it is naturally to benefit the business.

If this trip can swallow Lifeng Trading Company in one bite and turn it into the industry of Shenwei Army, it will be considered a complete success.

To settle for the second best, we must continue to cooperate with Lifeng Trading Bank to seek its support for the supply of food, grass, weapons and other resources to maintain the combat power and organization of the Shenwei Army, which will be of great use in the future.

The most time, the most time, also need to rob and cut off a piece of meat from Lifeng Trading Company to ensure that in the short term, the Shenwei Army will not be disturbed by logistics disadvantages.

This can be done by relying on the transcendent martial arts of several people, or by being able to take advantage of the tricks and robbery.

However, if you do this, you will lose your reputation and popularity. If you want to make friends in the future, it will be difficult to get funding.

After investigation and deduction, Meng Zhao, Si Peng, Xiang Qing and others focused their attention on the three managers of Lifeng Trading Company, and they were also the person in charge who had always been connected with Shenwei Army.

According to what Xiang Qing found out, the three stewards of Lifeng Trading Company, named Jie Wen, were the old man under Jie Widow. He was the confidant of Jie Widow at the beginning. He was smart and good at calculating.

Later, Widow Jie started her business herself, and Jie Wen also helped her a lot, thus becoming the three manager of the business, with a high position and great influence.

In addition to operating many industries, it also manages four business roads under the name of Lifeng Trading Company. Three are connected to the Central Plains and one is connected to the outside of the Great Wall. It buys low and sells high, which is an important pillar of Lifeng Trading Company.

What is the most valuable thing for a businessman?

Of course it is their connections and various channels.

Jie Wen mastered many of the connections and channels of Lifeng Business, including the various grain merchants, ordnance manufacturers that Shenwei Army values, etc.

After all, if you are sent to contact the Shenwei Army and have no shortage of supply for several years, it can be seen that this disbanded manager is still very good at it.

Xiang Qing also verified that this person, Jie Sanguan, is relatively self-disciplined. Although he is a merchant and is calculating, he is considered to be rich in family wealth, but he does not have any extravagance and is relatively simple.

The food and clothing cost is only suitable for the rich, but not too much pursuit.

The only difference is probably that this person is somewhat difficult to control his beauty. In addition to the old wife he married in his early years, there are also six beautiful concubines, dozens of beautiful maids in the family, and countless beauties he raises outside the house.

These were all played with by him, but for some reason, they had no children and might have hidden diseases.

Moreover, Xiang Qing found out that Jie Sanguan was involved through the channels of the Heavenly King Gang, and once insulted an important maid next to Jie Widow. Later, he didn't know what method he used to ask the woman to hide it.

Until three months ago, the incident was exposed, Widow Jie scolded Jie Wen and hammered the girl to death.

It's a bit ruthless, no wonder I can win such a career.

Xie Wen was probably scared and begged repeatedly. At the same time, he bought the closest people around the Widow and said good things to him, so that he would be exempted from punishment. At least from the perspective of status and internal Lifeng Business, it had little impact on him.

The close women around the master dare to get involved. This matter alone is enough to show that this Jie Wen is actually a lustful person, and has weaknesses and flaws.

Moreover, after the incident, his attitude towards Widow Jie also showed that he was timid and spared no means of help.

It is very consistent with the temperament of a businessman, and there is nothing to say.

There are actually many ways to deal with such people.

However, Meng Zhao has no beautiful women around him now, so it is very difficult to buy him.

Instead, it would be better to come to Jie Wen directly and use force to force him to find out more information about Jie Widow from him, which is more likely to be achieved.

Xiang Qing and Si Peng have had contact with the Xie Sanguan affairs and thought it was indeed feasible.

It is true that the business of profit and business is powerful and has attracted many desperate people to do things, with experts in it in charge.

However, Jie Wen was not qualified to mobilize such strong people to protect himself.

However, this person is not the owner of the Lifeng Business after all, but is just a manager. Under authority, it is okay to use some means to seek personal gain.

It involves mobilizing a large number of materials and even using the channels of the business to do things, but it requires the widow's approval. Otherwise, there would be no way to mobilize a grain of rice.

With force, he could only pry out some information, and at most he robbed the Wen family's family resources. He wanted to make profits, but it was not enough, which was a bit regretful.

Meng Zhao felt that it was enough, just because after understanding some of the situations of Lifeng Commercial Bank, he no longer had too much fantasy about swallowing this big commercial bank quietly.

Lifeng Commercial Bank, as a major commercial bank with many talents in the North, has extremely strong foundation and strength.

Its influence cannot be simply regarded as a merchant, because the people they cooperate with include powerful people, aristocratic families, sects, even underworlds, evil people, and all kinds of religions and all kinds of people.

This is a huge collection of interests and Widow Jie should be just a relatively important part of it, but it cannot represent all of it. The resources and wealth it can use may be less than one-tenth of that of the entire Lifeng Business.

Therefore, as I thought before, the possibility of swallowing Lifeng Commercial Bank is very low, especially without disturbing too many forces, it is almost impossible.
