Chapter 178 A cage within a cage, a cage within a cage
The people in the house were still waiting for news. Soon someone on horseback stopped outside the courtyard. He got off his horse and rushed in, shouting as he ran: "Old man, the Wan family is smuggling fur goods."
Everyone in the room stood up and asked, "Is it really a leather goods?"
"Where did you come from? Have you seen the previous family clearly?"
"His grandma, after a long time, he is still a big fish!"
Smuggling goods is a big business. The speaker gritted his teeth and resented the neglect of the small Wanchun leather goods shop over the years.
The whole room was extremely excited, but only Hong Jingtian and the ordinary-looking Huo Laoer sat calmly.
Huo Lao'er is dark-skinned and looks very honest. He wears patched coarse clothes, just like the farmers in the village who farm with their backs to the sky and their faces to the loess.
No one would have guessed that he was the second master of Tianxiang Tower.
Now that Wanjia's smuggling of goods has been discovered, we can't let it go.
Huo Laoer stood up, slowly tightened his belt, and said to Hong Jingtian: "Master, just wait for the good news. The revenge of Lao San and Lao Si must be avenged, and Tianxiang Tower must be recovered again.
Huo Lao Er is the least influential person in Tianxiang Tower. The third lao Qin He and the newly recruited fourth lao Ming Qiande are always doing everything.
If Mr. Hong hadn't brought everyone to the village this time, no one would have known that this Mr. Huo was the Mr. Huo from Tianxiang Tower.
Hong Jingtian nodded and said: "Second brother, if you hadn't acquired a piece of land here, I wouldn't even have a place to hide. When Tianxiang Tower is taken back in the future, I will give you half of it."
Mr. Hong knows how to employ people well. Regardless of success or failure, he must first paint the cake.
The Xianglou was actually a shell that day, and all the money was not in the building.
But now there is a notice posted at the city gate, making it inconvenient to pick it up.
Huo Laoer did not call the people in the house, but went out and walked around the village. He took more than 20 people behind him, each carrying a knife and a stick, and headed straight for the official road.
If the Qili County Magistrate had seen this scene, he would have cried out that he was wronged.
He was beheaded and never thought until his death that the usually honest farmers in his jurisdiction would be the ones involved in the "gold tragedy".
Back then, thousands of people were plundered from Ruijin Town. It was obviously not possible to rely solely on the dozens of Dilu people to bring people into the grassland.
Huo Laoer and his group of placer workers contributed a lot. They not only acted as internal agents, but also helped escort people to the grassland.
Only they themselves know about this.
In order to prevent their identities from being exposed, all the Wu Dynasty people who saw their true faces along the way were fed to the vultures and wolves.
It is said that when Song Liyun saw Manager Wan leaving Suijin Town, he set up his car and turned around immediately. As soon as he arrived at the guardhouse, Luo Baihu walked out in armor.
"Master Baihu, the fish has been hooked!" Song Liyun jumped out of the car, looking a little frightened, and said hurriedly to Luo Baihu.
Luo Baihu snorted coldly: "I understand, which direction are they going?"
"Yes, we are going to Pingyang Mansion." Song Liyun winced, then whispered: "Sir, will Wanda Manager and the others be..."
Luo Baihu waved his hand: "You give the money to Wang Zhong and then go back to rest. You don't have to worry about anything anymore. You just need to hear the good news."
Song Liyun agreed, picked up the silver box and went to the guardhouse.
It was late at night, and the lights in Wang Zhong's official room were brightly lit. He was still waiting for the money to be paid into his account.
When he saw Song Liyun coming in with a silver box in his arms, Wang Zhong suddenly smiled and said, "Come on, girl Song, pay some money!"
Making money is something that both Wang Zhong and Song Liyun like.
The silver box was opened, and the shiny silver ingot was revealed.
At this moment, as the whistle sounded, there was a heavy sound of horse hooves running out of the guardhouse.
Song Liyun's hand holding the silver paused and he glanced outside involuntarily.
Wang Zhong saw through her thoughts: "With adults from hundreds of families leading the team, you can rest assured that anyone who dares to rob Wanjia will be uprooted. I have to say, Girl Song, this is a great plan!"
Song Liyun felt a little guilty and said: "My family is short of money. If the general judge can't deal with Tianxiang Tower, it will be difficult for me to go out.
But if Manager Wan Da knew that we were using him as bait, I'm afraid he would be angry for a few days."
Wang Zhong put away his smile and said seriously: "Although you are not a member of the military, you must have heard that soldiers are not afraid of deceit. If you can get rid of those bandits, there is nothing to be afraid of taking a risk.
Forget it, it’s normal for a girl like you not to understand this. I will settle the money here for you, so you should go back and rest early!”
Song Liyun frowned, and after putting the one hundred and twenty taels of silver that belonged to her into the cash box, she left the guardhouse.
At this time, Han Ming was still waiting outside the door. As soon as Song Liyun got in the car, Ju Qingma went straight to Baolinju.
There were few stars at night, and there were only night crows crows everywhere. Seeing no one around, Han Ming, who was driving the carriage, said: "The girl is really a girl with seven orifices and exquisite heart. With this trick, the mantis will catch the cicada, and the oriole will follow, and the people of Tianxiang Tower will never be able to catch the cicada again."
Can't run away."
Song Liyun's face no longer had the fear and anxiety just now, and he said calmly: "The people in Tianxiang Tower are seeking their own death, and they can't blame others. Luo Baihu can make meritorious deeds again."
Being able to wipe out the bandits' nest is certainly a great achievement.
Ever since Manager Wanda came to Suijin Town, Song Liyun had expected to be targeted by people from Tianxiang Tower.
But Manager Wan was confident in his words and didn't care. It could also be heard that he was prepared and wanted to fight head-on.
If you want to fight, then fight thoroughly.
When Song Liyun went to the health clinic to place an order, he probably mentioned Manager Wan Da to lure Tianxianglou into taking the bait.
"Manager Wanda said that we need to bring more goods. Maybe we can lure people from Tianxiang Tower out."
Wang Zhong was experienced in the battlefield, so how could he not understand the key point of this matter? He quickly made a plan with Luo Baihu and asked Song Liyun to come over and notify him as soon as the goods were delivered.
Things were going according to Song Liyun's ideas, but she didn't want to be too sharp.
People who are too smart should show off all their intelligence.
Luo Baihu and the others have expressed their intention to cultivate and support themselves.
Rather than leaving the impression of being cunning, she would rather become a girl with a little brains but a little frivolousness in the eyes of Luo Baihu and others.
Back at Baolinju, Yun Niang and Song Zhenping were still awake. After eating Yun Niang's pork wontons and washing them with hot water, Song Liyun went to sleep comfortably.
At this time, the official roads were filled with flashes of swords and murderous intent.
The Wan family's three large oil shed carriages were driving quickly on the official road. The carriages were heavy and bumpy, and the road was narrow. From time to time, they would scrape against low-hanging branches or run over rocks.
The waiter kept waving his whip, urging the horse to gallop.
Sitting on the shaft of the car, Wan Liangjin looked calmly ahead, but out of the corner of his eye, he kept scanning the surrounding paths and forests.
When the car reached a corner, it was stopped by a fallen tree.
Wan Daguanshi’s heart, which had been in suspense, dropped: It’s finally here!
"Get out of the car and move!"
The two guys jumped out of the car and as soon as they walked to the big fallen tree, a group of people emerged from both sides of the official road.
