Zhao Er took office, and Dongfeng proudly became the steward of the justice office.
He secretly sighed in his heart: It is true that a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Although the Yan Party has been hit hard by Xiao Feng repeatedly, it is still so powerful.
Qiu Luan is the most favored military commander in Long Live at the moment, doesn't he also have to give face to the Yan family? It seems that my good days have finally come!
The location of the mutual market was set up in an open space ten miles away from Datong City. There were some sheds, drinking water stations, fair offices and other buildings built inside. This was funded by the imperial court and designed and built at a friendly price by Tianci Construction.
There was no help from Anda Khan, not because he was stingy with the small amount of money, but because the Tatars really couldn't handle the construction technology.
The Tatars, who are accustomed to setting up tents, felt a little ashamed when they saw the Han construction team skillfully turning mud bricks and tiles into houses: The hands of Han men feel more skillful than those of us Tatar girls!
Ten miles away was Xiao Feng's idea for Qiu Luan, and was fully affirmed by Qi Jiguang. Both of them emphasized that if something unexpected happened and the Tatars jumped on the horses they were supposed to sell and attacked Datong City, it would be ten miles away. The distance is enough to make the city ready for defense!
Zhao Er was indeed frightened by various punishments in the imperial edict, so when he first took office, he cherished his job, worked conscientiously, and had the attitude of a prodigal son who never returns money in return.
Although Qiu Luan didn't understand why Xiao Feng suddenly treated Zhao Er so well, he still unswervingly fulfilled Xiao Feng's instructions - treating Zhao Er as his own son!
Qiu Luan never forgets to think about Zhao Er when he has a delicious bite, remembers to give it to Zhao Er when he has a good dress, and remembers to give it to Zhao Er when he has a good woman... He also doesn't forget to let Zhao Er meet him and tell him that she is your godmother. , remember not to touch it in the future!
As time went by, not only the soldiers and people of the Ming Dynasty knew that Qiu Luan regarded Zhao Er as his own son and nephew, but the Tatars also knew that Zhao Er had an extraordinary relationship with Qiu Luan, and he might be Qiu Luan's illegitimate son!
"Have you not noticed that Manager Zhao and Governor Qiu look more and more alike!"
"That's impossible. Governor Qiu is only forty-five years old, and Manager Zhao must be at least thirty. His age doesn't match up!"
"What's the point? Isn't it normal to have a son at the age of twelve or thirteen? Maybe Director Zhao is a little anxious, but he is actually less than thirty!"
"When you say so, they do look alike, especially the look in their eyes when they see Yinzi and the woman, they are very similar!"
A country is easy to change, but a character is hard to change. Zhao Er holds the most power, and he doesn't know why Qiu Luan takes care of him like a godfather. He naturally thinks that this is due to the power of the strict party.
So gradually, Zhao Er healed his scars and forgot about the pain, and began to use his rights to blow a black whistle in the stock market.
Zhao Er's black whistle was fair and did not contain any nationalistic sentiments, let alone ethnic discrimination. Regardless of whether the right person is a Han or a Tatar, whoever gives more money will be right.
For example, the Han people exchanged the iron pot for sheep, but found that there were a few sick sheep in it. They might not be able to drive out of Datong and they would be turned into mutton skewers. The Han people naturally refused and asked for returns or compensation.
The Tatar businessman also had experience in the world. He gave Zhao Er some silver and Zhao Er stared.
"What you exchanged is a sheep, and the sheep you gave me are also sheep. Did you ever say that the sheep you want to exchange must be healthy and good sheep? What's your point?
If you dare to cause trouble and disrupt the market, I will arrest you and put you in jail! "
Zhao Er learned this trick from Xiao Feng. He learned it well and could definitely scare those businessmen.
Another example is when the Han people exchanged silk for Tatar horses, but it was discovered that only the outer layer was good silk, and the inner silk was old, so the Tatars naturally didn't do it.
The Han people gave Zhao Er some money, and Zhao Er also stared.
"What you exchanged was silk, and what I was given was also silk... I will arrest you and put you in jail!" The middle part was omitted to avoid being criticized for the number of words.
Those who couldn't afford the money knew that Zhao Er was suspected of being the illegitimate son of Governor Qiu, so they could only admit that they were unlucky. However, Zhao Er's reputation became worse and worse in the mutual market, almost replicating his glory in the main street of the capital.
Xiao Qin, who was far away on the coast, looked at the report of the Datong secret agent and frowned. Gu Yue'er couldn't bear to see him like this and couldn't help but ask.
"Brother Qin, is there any trouble?"
Xiao Qin shook his head: "It's not a bad thing, it's just strange. Qiu Luan transferred Qi Jiguang to Datong, and Qi Jiguang was no less talented than Hu Zongxian.
He established identity files for people entering the mutual market and required both parties to provide joint identity certificates of at least ten people. This made it difficult for our people to enter the market and cause trouble.
But Qiu Luan reused Zhao Er and made the mutual market a mess. Now both sides are dissatisfied.
Qiu Luan is smart and stupid at the same time, just like during the peace talks, which really makes me confused. "
Gu Yue'er thought for a moment: "Didn't you say last time that Yan Dang sent money and a letter to Qiu Luan, asking him to treat Zhao Er well? Maybe Qiu Luan is just a money-grubbing fool.
The reason why Qi Jiguang went there was not because he was wise, but because he was afraid of death. With so many Tatars gathering outside Datong, how could he not be afraid? "
Xiao Qin's thoughts were deeper than Gu Yue'er's, and he frowned, feeling that things were not that simple, but he couldn't figure out why his luck was so strange. It was difficult to make trouble, but the enemy was in chaos.
At this time, Gu Yue'er's words made him turn his mind to a more critical matter.
"Our local believers came to report that all those ninjas were not wiped out. One of them surrendered and was captured alive. It is said that Yu Dayou will personally escort the prisoners back to Beijing!"
Xiao Qin closed her eyes and thought for a moment, then sighed: "If Yu Dayou escorted him personally, I'm afraid I would be the only one to meet him in person.
I don't know how much this prisoner knows. It will take some time to prepare for the big event, and Yan Shifan is also needed. I can't risk him returning to Beijing.
If Yan Shifan's affair with the Japanese was discovered, even if he was imprisoned on suspicion, it would still ruin my major affairs! "
Gu Yue'er looked at him worriedly: "Brother Qin, Wuyou is injured, Yu Dayou's kung fu is really powerful.
He will definitely bring soldiers with him. You can't go alone. Gather our followers. This is a big battle. "
Xiao Feng was also looking at two letters at this time, one from Qiu Luan and one from Yu Dayou.
Yu Dayou's letter was very short. It probably meant that the news had been released according to the master's request. How should he deal with the White Lotus Sect next? There was a word attached to the letter: "Lotus", which is the lotus character of the White Lotus Sect.
Xiao Feng picked up the word and looked at it carefully. He didn't even react when his right leg was hugged. Wangcai's Qingxin Pill has long since expired, but he is afraid of Xiao Feng and has never dared to make mistakes.
Xiao Feng has been relatively friendly to it recently, so this guy has begun to be ignorant of the world again. Today, there are few people at home, and it has lost its target, so it takes a risk.
"The word 'Lotus' is on top. Now the power of the White Lotus Sect is in the hands of Xiao Qin. Both characters are Caotou. I have figured it out. This time my brother Qin will personally take action.
The word "lian" is at the bottom, which means "car" and "walk". You have to use a car to transport it. Don't go by water, go by land.
The word "lian" also means that there are many people following one after another. Xiao Qin will not come alone, he will lead the crowd to intercept and kill. Our strategy of luring the snake out of the hole and catching them all in one fell swoop was successful.
The 'car' has the shape of 'east' but does not have 'eight'. From the place where you start, eight miles to the east, an inaccessible place should be an ambush.
The "car" has the shape of "not one" in "ten" miles. The brutality of this battle is beyond imagination. You must bring more masters in the army, as ordinary soldiers will be difficult to use.
There is the shape of 'male' below the character '车', but it is tangible and intangible. It should be that there is a woman disguised as a man. m.
The character for "Che" is both "十" above and below, so this woman should be in her double decade. If there is such a person, let her go if you can, and don't kill her.
Because the word 'lian' means 'car' and 'walk' means 'walk', if this word really corresponds to this woman, then God's will is right and it is ominous to kill her.
As for my Brother Qin, kill him if you can. However, he possesses the Divine Art of Ultimate Bliss, so it will not be easy to kill him.
Although I don’t know how powerful this skill is, you still have to be careful! I couldn't have asked for a better apprentice than you! "
Xiao Feng tied the letter to the leg of a pigeon that was doing food. The pigeon looked at Xiao Feng sadly.
What are you doing? Don’t you know that I just came back from a long trip two days ago? The donkeys in the production team didn’t act like this!
Why don't you two have something to say at once? Going back and forth, is this through the city gate?
I'm so good at being a homing pigeon! Wouldn’t it be nice to fly freely under the sun? Just to eat a few bites of your broken persimmons...
The pigeon chewed the perilla seeds and flew away with a curse. Another Datong homing pigeon flying a short distance saw the non-stop workload of its companion and hurriedly started eating while Xiao Feng was reading the letter.
Unexpectedly, Qiu Luan's letter was shorter than Yu Dayou's. As soon as he opened the scroll, Qiu Luan's bitterness almost splashed Xiao Feng's face.
"Master Xiao sees his words as if they were face to face: Brother, what kind of bad idea did you come up with, and you asked me to treat you like your son? There is a lot of resentment in the mutual market now!
If he can change for the better, I can treat him as a father, but this guy can't change and eats shit. Tell me, what should I do? "
Xiao Feng sighed: "Zhao Er, Zhao Er, I gave you a chance to choose, but you didn't use the opportunity.
No matter what, I was always the one who set this up. I feel sorry for you to a certain extent. After we met you, I saw you off in person and gave you a good time. "
Xiao Feng picked up the pen, but instead of replying to Qiu Luan, he wrote a memorial to Jiajing.
"With the opening of mutual trade, I, as the person who initiated the initiative, should visit the place in person to show the court's attention, comfort, and deterrence.
If my prediction is correct, Anda Khan must be near the mutual market to observe the actual situation. When you sincerely adopt your heart and cultivate your mind, you must not be negligent and allow the traitors to take advantage of you.
Although Governor Qiu Luan was brave and good at fighting, and Qi Jiguang was resourceful, both of them had fought bloody battles with the Tatars for a short time, and the hostility between the two sides still existed, so it was inevitable that there would be some discord.
I have been on a reverse journey in the Tatar army, and the atmosphere is quite good. I also know Amada Khan very well, so I handle this matter most appropriately. "
After writing it, Xiao Feng folded it and put it in his sleeve. He did not intend to submit it to the cabinet, as that would not only be slow, but would also lead to accidents.
Anyway, he had to go to treat Princess Chang'an today, and by the way, he asked his senior brother directly for orders.
The murderous aura emanating from Xiao Feng's body was even felt by Wangcai, who was exercising fiercely. It raised its head in surprise and happened to see Xiao Feng's eyes.
"You are a dog and can't change..."
Before Xiao Feng could finish speaking, Wangcai let out a sob and ran as fast as he could, almost knocking the small door panel away.
Some people died, but not completely...
