News of Mu Yan's army being in danger quickly reached Huo Xi's ears.
She secretly called Xunwu, Zhenliu and others.
He ordered: "Fifth Manager, please immediately send someone to check the Jun family's property in Yunnan, as well as the current inventory and shipment status of all shops, as well as the merchants that are cooperating with you. Find out in detail, I will be useful."
"yes."
"Manager Six will contact the shopkeepers of Guangfeng Water in the southwest and ask them to prepare enough goods."
"Yes, ma'am."
Then he asked Gen Qi, "Eldest Master, in Brown's jade mine, which other family has stocks in it?"
Gen Qi replied: "Reporting to Madam, now only the eldest son, the Jun family and the Wushi family hold shares in it. The eldest son holds four shares, and the Jun family and the Wushi chieftain's house each hold three shares."
Wushi Tusi Mansion?
The Jun family acted based on Mu Zhan's wink. If Mu Zhan wanted to sell, the Jun family would not say anything. But would the Wushi family listen to him?
Huo Xi pondered for a moment, "If the eldest son wants to sell the mine, will Wu Shi let go?"
Gen Qi nodded: "Actually, the jade mine was snatched by Wushi from someone else. He was afraid of retaliation from others, so he reluctantly transferred it to the eldest son. It was said to be a dowry for the eldest lady, but in fact it was all run by the eldest son's manpower.
.Earlier, the prince asked us to encourage the eldest son to sell the jade mine, and now the work is half done, but we still can't agree on the price, and the other party's asking price is too high."
"I wonder if you guys want to buy it from the eldest son?"
"I don't know. We act cautiously. The prince's properties in Yunnan are all bearing other people's names, and there are others who are responsible for them. Even if we check the Yamen, we can't find the prince. Moreover, this name has a background, so we don't dare to provoke it easily.
.Madam, don’t worry.”
"That's good." Huo Xi nodded, "Should you continue talking, hold the other person aside first and wait for my instructions."
"yes."
Two days later, the status of all Jun's properties in the southwest was sent to Huo Xi.
I saw that Jun had done a lot of business with the tribes of Xifan and wanted to send a lot of grain, salt, cloth and other items to trade there before the year before. I instantly had an idea.
"Assemble manpower from Zhuangzi to intercept Jun's shipment to Xifan halfway. No matter what method is used, we must prevent them from delivering the goods on time."
It is the season of heavy snowfall in Xifan now, and they are waiting for grain, salt, cloth and other supplies to survive. If the Jun family fails to deliver the goods in time, the tribes of Xifan will become angry and demand a large amount of liquidated damages from the Jun family.
Moreover, at this time, the large number of horses, cattle and sheep that Xifan planned to trade with the Jun family not only could not be sold, but also consumed a large amount of food. If they stayed for one more day, they would have to fight for food with the living people.
At this time, Xifan is covered with snow, and the cat is in winter at home, and she is short of food. As long as she operates it properly, she can not only delay the delivery of the Jun family and pay a large amount of defaulted money, but also intercept Xifan's original plan at a low price.
Goods traded to the Jun family.
She had no shortage of grain, salt, and cloth, so she sold them to Xifan, leaving Jun's goods to rot on the road.
He ordered: "Let the Guangfeng Shuixin Branch prepare enough goods and be on standby at any time."
"yes."
Huo Xi made repeated deployments, while Mu Yan had constant stumblings. Various situations often occurred on the road, but fortunately they were prepared and resolved them easily.
After coming out of Maguan, Mu Yan received a secret letter from Jun Ruoxu.
After reading it, the master and the servants couldn't help but feel happy.
"What's going on with this young master Jun? His grandparents and aunt conspired to make the prince die or become disabled, and he's holding back? Did he send me a secret letter to tell the truth?"
What was this young master thinking? It's really strange.
"Sir, what do you mean by Young Master Jun? Why can't I understand? Is he playing hard to get and showing off on purpose? Or does he have other agendas?"
Mu Yan stared at the letter in his hand and said nothing.
"Sir, do you think this Young Master Jun has been imprisoned by us? Or is it because the death of his biological father has stimulated him? Why can't people understand what he did? And he wrote a letter? Are you not afraid that we will leave him behind?
evidence?"
Li Yi rolled his eyes at him, "Where is Master Jun's handwriting here?"
"Ah, isn't this his handwriting?"
Kan Er took it over and took a look, hey, it really wasn't the case. "Is this guy trying to be smart, or is he trying to trick our prince?"
Mu Yan was silent for a long time.
"He doesn't have the guts to lie to me yet. This is leaving a way out for himself. Besides, what this letter says about Jiao Zan is probably true."
Even the secret guards were unable to find out the relationship between Jiao Zan and the Jun family. Only people within the Jun family such as Jun Ruoxu could know such secrets.
Unexpectedly, Jiao Zan's mother was Mrs. Jun's concubine.
According to Jun Ruoxu's letter, Jiao Zan's mother refused to contact the Jun family until her death because she was sent away for marriage by her biological father. It was Mr. Jun who saw that Jiao Zan's brother and sister were living in difficulty, so he helped Jiao Zan and gave him money and money.
He sent him things and paid for his education. Later, he sent him to the army and helped him get a position.
"It's no wonder that Mrs. Jun is equivalent to Jiao Zan's reborn parent. It makes sense that he will obey orders from the Jun family."
Mu Yan nodded, "Now he relies on Mu Zhan, rising one level after another. He has long been tied to Mu Zhan's boat."
As for how Jiao Zan should deal with... the information collected by the secret guards showed that Jiao Zan had performed well in the army in recent years, led troops to win several battles, and had a good reputation in the army. This made Mu Yan hesitate.
"Even if he has made meritorious deeds, it is true that he harmed the young master. If he is not punished, we will think that we are afraid of him. If the eldest master's people see that the master has softened and use more drastic methods, we will be able to cope with it.
Kill the chicken to scare the monkey."
"Your Majesty, Kan Er is right, Jiao Zan must be dealt with."
Mu Yan pondered for a moment, "Notify Fan Yang that I will ask Jiao Zan to go to Kunming City and promote him to the right commanding officer. Let him help train the new soldiers."
"Ah, young master, why did you get promoted to his official position?" Kan Er was puzzled.
Mu Yan glanced at him and said, "If you don't understand, you won't be allowed to have dinner."
"Ah?" He scratched his head and looked at Li Yi.
It took Li a moment to figure it out, "Young Master, is he promoted openly and secretly? You promoted him to an official, but you don't let him lead the army?"
Unless the war is very fierce, the troops stationed in Kunming City have to guard Kunming City, the base camp of Yunnan Province, as their top priority and will not send troops to participate in the war.
If you don't participate in the war, you won't have the chance to make meritorious service. If you don't have the chance to make meritorious service, you won't have the chance to be promoted and make a fortune. Is the young master making him idle? Removing him from his post?
"Ah, Master, is that what you mean? Then why don't you just stuff him somewhere? Why put him in Kunming City to enjoy the blessings?"
"If you want to kill him, let him go crazy first. If he can keep his heart and serve the people and the army wholeheartedly, I won't be able to let him go. After all, he has made many military exploits over the years and is a talented person. But if he
After being corrupted in Kunming City, it will be much easier to correct his mistakes and punish him again."
Li Yi agreed very much, "The young master is still good at this. If he is dealt with violently, it will also cause dissatisfaction among the generals in the army. After all, nothing else happened on the martial arts stage that day. Everyone saw the young master.
He was defeated. He was transferred and promoted. Everyone just regarded him as a young master who loves his talents."
Kan Er looked at Mu Yan with starry eyes. Sure enough, the young master is still smarter than him. "Then I let Kunming City keep an eye on him?"
