"Come! Take these and share them."
After the carriage left Huaizhou, Lin Bai gave Yan Gang the banknotes he had received and asked him to distribute them to the people below.
Great talents are not short of money now.
And everyone has a share in the windfall!
It was indeed an unexpected windfall. It was really unexpected that the other party took the initiative to hand over the banknote so directly.
But it's right to think about it. He is still a "prince" after all, and the other party is still trying to fawn over him.
The soldiers were all very happy. They probably didn't expect such a big fat sheep. Yan Gang also took this opportunity to explain a few words.
Since my uncle wants to conceal his identity, he still needs to use the same tone of voice.
Taking advantage of this moment, Lin Bai had already opened the envelope.
His brows couldn't help but frown.
"You guys should take a look too!"
Then he handed the letter to Ji Xiaofeng and Yan Gang, and after they read it, he asked, "How is it?"
Ji Xiaofeng frowned slightly and said: "Although Guinan Admiral Jiang Hailiu is not under Prince Ning, he did have friendship with Prince Ning back then. It is not impossible to say that he is behind this."
It turns out that Admiral Guinan was mentioned in the letter sent by Kuang Zhiwei.
As you can imagine, the admiral of a province is a real official in a feudal territory. He is in charge of the military power of a province.
Lin Bai didn't expect that a little guy he met randomly in Huaizhou would give him a king bomb at the beginning and directly pointed out Admiral Guinan.
This joke is a little too big.
The admiral is a high-ranking official from the first rank, and he is not just a vain person, but a real big shot who holds military power.
If you want to be a boss like this, that's easy!
Of course, it is not impossible. Before setting off, the great talent had already been given the title of Right Minister of the Ministry of War. Although the admiral was a first-rank official, the right minister of the Ministry of War was a court official. Even the admiral of a province would be restrained.
Yan Gang said: "He is just the second son of Huaizhou. Is the news unreliable?"
Ji Xiaofeng thought for a while and said: "A second son is naturally not worth mentioning, but Liu Yunpeng, the prefect of Huaizhou, is not an ordinary person. He is a relatively famous chieftain in western Hunan, and has close contacts with the chieftains in Guinan..."
As both chieftains, in a sense, their interests are the same.
This is the case when facing the court.
So they will have a lot of exchanges in private, dealing with the above policies and the like.
If the information was only given by Kuang Zhiwei, then the authenticity is still open to question, but if it was given by Liu Yunpeng, then it is likely to be true.
Lin Bai asked: "Hasn't there been any suspicion from above?"
Since it was already suspected that something was wrong with the Southwest Army, Admiral Guinan, the boss among the bosses, was naturally also suspicious.
Lao Zhu won't make any movement at all, right?
Ji Xiaofeng shook his head and said: "I don't know the specific subordinates. These are all secrets. I'm afraid we won't know until we get to Guinan."
Right!
After all, he is a first-level official. If something really happens, unless the person in charge is in charge, most others will not be able to contact him.
Lin Bai nodded and added: "The letter also mentioned a place called Qinglong Taoist Temple. Let someone check it immediately."
"yes!"
"..."
Overall, the harvest from this trip was pretty good.
Not to mention the banknotes, we also obtained this information. Although the importance of this information is not yet apparent, it is a breakthrough.
The talented man was quite satisfied. Apart from anything else, he was still full of confidence in the thorough investigation of Tianzhu Hemp.
And as long as this thing is accomplished, it will not be considered a failure.
Delightful!
The task is completed ahead of schedule. As for integrating the toast, erasing the New Year's goods, etc., just let it happen! He had no hope at all.
The talented man was in a good mood, so he caught Zhuiyue and ravaged her on the spot.
My uncle is so happy, so it makes sense to celebrate, right?
Fortunately, Zhuiyue is a martial arts practitioner and can withstand hardships. No matter how bumpy the road is, he still has a different mood.
The carriage moved forward.
One day later, they entered the realm of Guinan.
Compared with Xiangxi, the official system here is even worse.
Forget it during exercise, there is still some fun. After exercise, it feels miserable, and the whole person is about to fall apart.
Lin Bai simply pulled Zhui Yue out and rode a horse, seeing the beautiful scenery along the way.
There's no other way, you can't keep exercising.
I really thought it was made of iron!
Zhuiyue's pretty face was always red, mainly because she was bullied by her uncle, but the corners of her mouth were full of sweetness, but she was a little shy.
After walking for a while, a killing cry suddenly came from the front.
The sound is quite loud.
Zhuiyue came back to his senses in an instant. Regardless of his shyness, he held the hilt of the sword and was already guarding his uncle.
And a group of guards were also on alert.
Some soldiers went to investigate and soon returned, "Sir, we found suspected bandits robbing the caravan ahead."
So exaggerated? Do you dare to commit robbery on official roads in broad daylight?
A flash of surprise flashed in Lin Bai's eyes, and he asked, "Are there many bandits?"
The soldier replied: "It's not much!"
Lin Bai nodded and signaled to save people.
No matter what, he is still an official, and as a time traveler, how can he ignore death? Of course, if there are many bandits, that is another matter.
The dog's head is important.
Wang Xiong immediately led a group of people and rushed there.
Yan Gang, Ji Xiaofeng and others were guarding Lin Bai and moved closer to the front.
The caravan looked quite small, with more than 20 cargo carriages and some accompanying guards, but compared to these vicious bandits, it was a little inferior.
Fortunately, Wang Xiong and others arrived quickly and were all very skilled. The bandits were beaten back and two of them were captured on the spot.
There are many merchants in the caravan, doing various businesses.
The leader was a slightly fat middle-aged man, who was extremely grateful to Lin Bai and his party.
Lin Bai smiled and said there was no need to be polite.
The middle-aged man's name was Tong Dahai. He was in the tea business. Guinan is rich in tea. He was going to buy some tea. He didn't expect that before the goods came in, he encountered bandits first.
Fortunately, Lin Bai and his entourage arrived and it was almost safe.
Lin Bai asked: "Boss Tong, are there many bandits around here?"
Tong Dahai shook his head, "I've never heard of it before. It only appeared recently."
He looked around as he spoke, then lowered his voice and continued: "I heard that it's because the authorities are checking Tianzhu Hemp, and some people won't survive, so..."
Lin Bai was stunned for a moment and said in astonishment: "Is this relevant?"
Tong Dahai said: "That's right. Young Master should rarely come to Guinan, right? There are many people doing that in this area, especially near Dali. Many people also plant secretly. According to the above investigation, so... …”
Good guy!
Has this become an industrial chain?
The superiors were conducting a thorough investigation and cut off their financial resources, so they started to cause trouble?
its not right! After all, this is a minority, so it’s not like that!
But it's not necessarily true. Although they are in the minority, those who dare to do such things are not good birds. It is hard to say that they deliberately incite others.
The two chatted for a while.
At this time, Ji Xiaofeng came over and said, "Sir, the two bandits have been recruited."
…
