When setting off again, the man named Wang showed a look of shame on his face and said: "In the past two days, Mr. Wang was really a bit of a mastermind. I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed..."
Only then did he understand why the other party dared to walk in Shuzhou without any bodyguards. Brother Fang alone was worth their entire escort agency.
Even saying this seems to be a bit flattering. After all, facing dozens of bandits, they had no choice but to lay down their weapons and surrender.
Not to mention the heroine who only shows one hand and makes people tremble with fear, and the old man who always makes people shudder even though he is old. Even Brother Li himself is very skilled. How can such a combination?
He doesn't even look like an ordinary person.
"Use your strength and don't be lazy!"
"Hurry up, you haven't eaten yet!"
"You, I'm talking about you, look at whatever you want, and if you look at it again, I'll dig out your eyeballs!"
…
The escorts were sitting on the cart, holding a straw rope as a whip, and from time to time they would hit the bandit pushing the cart behind.
More bandits followed, with their hands tied and strung together with a rope, and the other end of the rope was tied to the carriage.
After chatting for a while, Wang Chang finally couldn't help but ask: "What does Brother Li's family do?"
"Like them, they are also bandits."
"Bandit?" Wang Chang was stunned, shook his head and said, "Brother Li is joking again."
"I used to live in places like Qing'an Prefecture and Kyoto, but the government in these places was very strict and it was not easy to live..." Li Yi explained: "I heard that there are so many bandits in Shuzhou, and the government doesn't care much about it, so I just
I plan to come here to develop and develop.”
Wang Chang smiled, but of course he didn't believe what he said. He didn't mention Brother Li's polite appearance, but said that those women looked like bandits. He shook his head, not caring, and asked: "Li
What are the brothers and their family doing in Shuzhou? They are not really here for fun, are they?"
These days, no one believes the truth. Li Yi sighed and said: "It's true that I'm going to have a little business at home. Shuzhou is a special place. It's not far from Qi and Wu. I was wondering if I could come here."
Make the business bigger..."
Although there are many frictions between Qi State and Jing State, this does not affect the commercial exchanges between the two countries. Every year, many businessmen travel between the two countries. When he first saw Brother Li, he could tell that he was attracted to the other country.
Either rich or noble, not an ordinary person.
Wang Chang thought for a while and reminded: "There are many caravans in Shuzhou traveling between Jingguo and Qiguo. Unfortunately, I have cooperated with two of them. Brother Li is new here and is not very familiar with this place. If you are interested,
, I can introduce to you one or two things. It is much safer and more convenient for you to join a certain caravan."
Li Yi said politely: "Thank you very much, Brother Wang."
"You're welcome." Wang Chang shook his head and said, "However, you can go to Qi State, but it is better for Brother Li not to go to Wu State."
Li Yi looked at him and said in surprise: "Why is this?"
On a horse in front, Miss Liu Er tilted her head slightly.
Wang Chang explained: "The situation in Wu State is different from that of Qi State and Jing State. Although they are not hostile to our merchants from Jing State, there are rebellions in Wu State and domestic turmoil. No caravan is willing to risk going to Wu State for the sake of
Losing money and losing lives is not worth it."
Li Yi smiled and said, "I understand, thank you, Brother Wang."
For Shuzhou, Li Yi had already made arrangements a few years ago.
Now Goulan has opened all over Shuzhou, and Home Inn has also fully covered the seven counties of Shuzhou. A huge information and intelligence network has long been established and perfected. The situation in Shuzhou does not need him to introduce too much.
Although business is just getting started, this is just the beginning. In the coming days, business will be one of the directions for vigorous development.
Of course, there is still a lot to do before that.
…
Shuzhou is remote and its people are poor. Although Yongxian County, where the city of Shuzhou is located, is relatively rich, it is not much richer.
Therefore, when carriages that looked very exquisite and luxurious drove into the city gate, all the people passing by stopped to watch.
Of course, there is another reason why they can't take their eyes away.
Behind the last carriage, there was a long queue.
A group of dozens of people were tied up with ropes and followed behind the carriage. Some passers-by took a few glances and immediately recognized their identities.
"This, these are the bandits from the Heihu Valley area!"
"I recognized it. The one at the front is not Lin Ershangzi. He is the biggest bandit leader in the Heihu Valley area!"
"This Lin Ershangzi is the most insane. Six months ago, my old sow was just a few days away from giving birth. He was the one who ruined it!"
"How did they get caught? Which hero did this? I didn't expect these people to be where they are today. It's so satisfying!"
"But I heard that Lin Ershangzi has some relationship with County Magistrate Zhang. Could it be..."
…
We originally planned to arrive in Yongxian that evening, but the trip was delayed because of the bandits. We rested for one night and arrived at Yongxian at noon the next day.
Prince Jing's Mansion is still under construction. When Li Yi set out from Kyoto, he sent a letter here. Prince Jing's Mansion has not yet been completely built and cannot be lived in. However, they have renovated the original Prince Shu's Mansion, so they can rest temporarily.
Rest your feet.
I had some small grievances with the King of Shu before, and now I have to occupy his place, so I still feel a little uneasy.
But with a large family, there must be a bigger place, and we can't live in an inn with Ruyi and the others...
Before settling down, we need to deal with these bandits first.
The Yongxian County Government Office was not far from the city gate. Under the leadership of Wang Chang, the group quickly reached the county government office gate.
The yamen guard on duty at the yamen gate was taking a nap while leaning against the wall. Suddenly, his vision went dark. He opened his eyes, looked up at the people opposite, frowned and said, "What are you doing!"
Wang Chang walked up, cupped his hands, and said, "Brother, we caught a few bandits on the road. We didn't dare to deal with them privately, so we brought them to the county government."
"Bandits?" the officer asked impatiently, looked around, and asked, "Where are they?"
"Come out, hurry up!"
An escort held the rope and pulled the dozens of people out from behind the carriage.
The yamen servant looked at it with wide eyes and immediately ran into the yamen.
When he ran into the door, he paused again and turned around and said, "You guys wait here, I'll go ask the county magistrate for instructions!"
The magistrate of Yongxian County, surnamed Zhang, had just taken office not long ago.
He was able to go from county magistrate to county magistrate in just a few years, and he must also thank his predecessor.
Some time ago, due to the drag of the King of Shu, the previous county magistrate of Yong County, his predecessor, as a comrade of the King of Shu, was escorted to Beijing after the King of Shu fled. Now he is exiled to an unknown place to move stones.
went.
Therefore, as the county magistrate, he was naturally promoted to the top of Yong County.
Especially when the new governor was transferred and there was no governor in the city, he was the absolute person in power here.
Speaking of which, I would also like to thank His Highness the King of Shu for his unrequited kindness. As a small county magistrate, he personally visited the door and gave gifts several times without seeing the King of Shu. Perhaps the King of Shu did not bother to recruit a person at that time.
The little county magistrate...
In short - now Yong County is his territory.
At this moment, he was sitting in the back hall, took a sip of tea, frowned and said: "The waiter has become more and more ignorant recently. He hasn't been here for a whole month."
A woman who was squeezing his shoulders behind him said in a soft voice: "Master, you are wrongly blaming the waiter. You don't know that business is difficult to do these days. There is a group of bald heads who are trying to rob them and hurt them."
They can't go back home, so they can only go out and do some small jobs. Their life is not easy even if they think about it, but they definitely haven't forgotten to respect their master..."
"That's not necessarily the case..." Magistrate Zhang put down his teacup and said, "Maybe after so long, he has become ambitious and bold, and has forgotten how he got to where he is today..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a government servant from outside ran in in a panic and shouted: "Master, it's not good, Lin Er is here!"
