In the study room of Guanfu, the curtains were hanging low and the light was dark.

Because Zhou Cang investigated the real source of the "this batch of armies", the whole incident gradually became clear.

"General Zhou means that these weapons all come from the villa on the outskirts of Jiangling City?"

Ma Liang still didn't believe it, so he asked again and again to confirm.

Zhou Cang nodded heavily and answered the word "yes" with great firm determination.

He said in detail: "Today, Guan Gong asked Mo Jiang to investigate the identity of this 'Jiaozhou' merchant. Mo Jiang followed them and found that there were hawkers selling wood in the market who recognized Shi Huolong!"

"...This is not a big deal. Even if I am worried about missing something, I will send someone to check the wood vendor. It doesn't matter if I don't check it. After checking, I found out that the vendor has recently sold a large amount of wood. This amount of sales is more than he has added up in the past few years... and even caused the wood prices in Jingzhou to rise rapidly."

Speaking of this, Zhou Cang paused, "Following this clue, I sent someone to continue to check, and then I found that the places where a large amount of wood poured in was a villa on the outskirts of Jiangling's western city. Not only wood, but even the black market...the massive iron was transported here. You can hear the sound of forging in the villa from a distance..."

Speaking of this, Ma Liang followed Zhou Cang's words and tried to say. "Making side vans, wooden ox and flowing horses, and crossbows all require a lot of wood and iron. Therefore, General Zhou boldly speculated that these wooden ox and flowing horses all came from the villa, and the so-called "Huang Lao Xie" was even more here!"

Ma Liang proposed "Huang Lao Xie".

Zhou Cang didn't know, "What Huang Laoxie was not found in the end? Who is Huang Laoxie?"

Ma Liang told Zhou Cang the four words "Huang Lao Xie" engraved in the side van mentioned by Guan Yinping.

Zhou Cang suddenly realized.

He exclaimed—"So that's it...so that's it!"

Ma Liang then asked: "Since it has been speculated that it was the villa, why didn't General Zhou break into it and investigate it?"

this…

Zhou Cang scratched his head, "Guan Gong only asked the general to inquire secretly. The general found that there were many secret messages around the villa. I was afraid that if I got closer, I would start to alarm the snake... Therefore..."

Ma Liang nodded understandingly, "General Zhou did the right thing. If he broke in abruptly, he would be reckless... it was something that he had negligent."

Just like, Ma Liang realized.

Since the name of "Huang Laoxie" has the word "evil", I guess... I have a bad temper.

If you offend me, wouldn’t you lose a “famous friend” who is likely to win over the recruitment?

And with this series of reports.

Guan Yu's eyes darkened, "Since this 'Huang Lao Xie' is in Jiangling, why not just sell arms to Guan? So arrogant... or to borrow the Yunqi? Is the purpose just for money? Or is he to deceive Yunqi?"

Guan Yu raised his concerns...

Ma Liang couldn't guess...

Just like his name, Huang Laoxie... This person is very evil.

"Huang Laoxie, Huang Laoxie..."

Ma Liang couldn't help but murmur the name again...

Wait, suddenly... his eyes must have been thought of something suddenly.

It's a letter!

It was a name mentioned in the letter Kong Ming sent him some time ago.

——Huang… His surname is also Huang!

——"evil" words... He is very evil in dealing with people!

Huang Laoxie, Huang Laoxie, could it be... he?

Immediately, Ma Liang's eyes were fixed and he hurriedly said, "Mr. Guan, who do I know this Huang Laoxie?"

"Who?"

"A name was mentioned in the letter sent back by Kong Ming, that is his father-in-law Huang Chengyan!"

Ma Liang explained in detail: "Kong Ming said that his father-in-law Huang Chengyan returned from traveling around and his hometown Miannan was destroyed by war, so he settled in a villa in the west of Jiangling City..."

"Kong Ming also said that his father-in-law has a strange temper and does not like ordinary things. Moreover, Kong Ming has arranged some servants to guard the villa, so he usually let us not go to visit him, leaving him with a quiet family."

Having said this...

With a "gudong", Ma Liang swallowed, and he seemed to suddenly realize it.

He pursed his lips and said, "In the suburbs of the west of the city mentioned by General Zhou, I remember that there was only a villa in that place. And the owner of that villa, besides Kong Ming's father-in-law Huang Chengyan, who else can there be? That is to say...that is,..."

Without waiting for Ma Liang to say it.

Guan Yu's eyes suddenly widened, and he shouted: "This 'Huang Laoxie' is the 'Huang Chengyan'..."

"Shh..."

Guan Yu's words had just been heard, and Ma Liang quickly showed his index finger.

Because of Zhuge Kongming's explanation, they just need to know about this and must not be spread.

It cannot go against Kong Ming's intentions, which will cause people everywhere to disturb you.

Can…

Guan Yu's eyes are deep.

He suddenly fell into great thoughts, if...if Huang Chengyan was Huang Laoxie.

Then he made these weapons and raised the price to sell them?

...He...is not right!

What does he need so much money to do?

etc…

Guan Yu suddenly thought of a point.

He opened his mouth quickly, but the words came to his mouth but did not say anything.

He actually wanted to say a guess...

What if, what if not only Huang Chengyan, but that boy Yunqi also participated in this matter?

Although this idea is very bold, Guan Yu couldn't help but guess.

——『Is it that Guan Lin asked him to come out and cooperated with such a play. The superficial purpose was to raise the price of weapons, but behind his back...」

Guan Yu couldn't help but think of his previous epiphany again.

——"Regulation and chaos are counting;"

——『Courtesy is power;』

——『Strength and weakness are also shape.

Because of Guan Lin, Guan Yu's extra insights into "The Art of War" drove him to think from another perspective.

What is hidden behind this incident, or what he saw in Guan Yu's eyes, was actually what some people wanted him to see.

The whole incident may be a matter of itself.

Of course, this is just a guess...

Guan Yu asked casually: "Have Yunqi ever been to the suburbs of Xicheng..."

this…

Zhou Cang's eyes turned, and he didn't think about it at first.

But now... suddenly implicated the fourth young master, Zhou Cang suddenly remembered something.

“Have been!”

Zhou Cang's tone was confident, "Previously... the young master of Yunqi would go there every half a month, and often after that, he could bring back a lot of stewed beef. It was told by the civil servants in the mansion in person!"

Because it is related to the cow, there will always be "a person who loves the cow" sues Guan Lin, so Zhou Cang is naturally familiar with it.

Can…

Thinking about it this way...

——『Is it…』

Zhou Cang's eyes condensed and he quickly said, "Mr. Guan, is it... Master Yunqi..."

Before Zhou Cang finished speaking, Guan Yu waved his hand... and signaled him not to continue.

Connected...

Now, the whole incident is connected!

As Guan Suo, he would not run to Baojiazhuang on the outskirts of the East City for no reason;

Of course, this boy Yunqi would not go to the suburbs of Xicheng for no reason.

Thinking of Guan Lin’s recent fortune, the purchase of large amounts of wood and iron, and the villa on the outskirts of Xicheng, the thought of Shi Huolong, You Tanzhi used Guan Lin’s platform to make this magical ordnance public.

Guan Yu had reason to believe that this kid must have participated in this matter.

——『Can this kid actually win over Huang Chengyan?
