"What I said just now is just one of them. If we are afraid that the shopkeepers who come to take over will give away the secret business, or use coercion or inducement, the worst is to use the magical power of the caravan in Fengyou County to find out the origin of these people. Depending on the force of the son and the mother, maybe these people will not dare to cross." It seemed that just casually, Mi Yuhuai had already expressed his thoughts. Although he was cruel, his words were smooth and he could not hear the slightest fluctuation.
"The second thing is even more difficult to explain. The current governor of Fengyou County is not just an oil lamp. When he saw the new governor of the neighboring West County take office, he started a fire at the same time, and he was very effective. He was also an official. People, who can watch being overpowered by others? In recent years, the power of the caravan has become stronger and stronger. On weekdays, people in the government are very polite and unwilling to make enemies with the people in the caravan. This is only because there are few people in the caravan. People's extraordinary skills make it difficult to catch people. A few days ago, I secretly sent a sentry to help the people to inquire about the news. It was said that many days ago, someone from the county governor's house came to visit. If I guessed correctly, it was probably That person from the Zhang family, the leader of the merchants in the city, stayed in the mansion for a long time, and he must have become well connected."
Mi Yuhuai did not hide it, but spat out all the words. His thin face was uncharacteristically full of publicity and wantonness.
"Actually, the three families in the city were incompatible with each other. The horse gang spoke for the Jianghu people, and the government and merchants also interacted with each other. Previously, the government had always stayed seated because they had not found any excuses. Furthermore, they were quite afraid of the powerful and abrupt nature of the horse gang. The sword was used, fearing that something unexpected might happen, causing people in the world to rise up one after another, and as it has been unusual recently, I am afraid that they already have a way to deal with it. At present, there are frequent movements in the Baihu Sect, most likely because of the instructions of the county guard, but even I don’t know, the leader of the Ye clan has always had a wantless temper. For many years, the caravan has been pressing hard, but he has never taken action personally. This time, he is willing to be a knife in the palm of his hand. I guess the county guard is already Offered a huge price.”
When Li Wuji heard this, he already didn't know what to say. He could only look at the thin-shouldered scholar, who was beaming with joy among the guests. He was completely different from the usual posture of a decadent scholar.
Although he had sat on the helmsman's seat, Li Wuji asked himself that he did not have such ability. Even if he noticed that the wind outside had changed, he would never have thought of it. It is easy to say that one leaf falls and the world is autumn. But in the end, it is difficult to say how many people can really discern the details, not to mention the length of two sticks of incense. Mi Yuhuai has already explained the current situation thoroughly.
"Seriously, if there are merchants who are fighting to the death, they come to help openly, but secretly destroy all the caravan's money and shops. After many years of hard work, I am afraid it will be destroyed. Although I think I have some idle talents, But you can’t do everything yourself, and if you screen for omissions, the few smart people you have today will definitely suffer losses. By then, money will suddenly shrink, people’s hearts will be scattered, and it will be difficult to rise from the east.”
"Don't mention it again about sending the shopkeeper to take over the caravan business. Even if you come uninvited, just decline politely and never entrust your life to others." Mi Yuhuai sighed, maybe he was sitting at the gate himself, when Even if he rejected it outright, although Li Wuji had been in the position of helmsman in recent years and his vision was more advanced than before, he still regarded other people's thoughts as too kind.
People often say that kung fu and skill are all about fighting for the smallest details, but here, nothing can be done without fighting for the smallest details. There are countless precedents where one wrong step has ruined one's fortune.
Li Wuji frowned and said nothing, still thinking about it, but just as this was happening, a man walked out of the side hall. Seeing that it was Mi Yuhuai and Li Wuji, he cupped his fists and saluted, and said with some trembling, "The worshiper and the helmsman are both here. , The villain has something to say, but I don’t know whether to say it or not.”
The rules among the caravans have always been strict. Those on duty are never allowed to enter the main hall and side halls. Except when spies deliver urgent messages, in other seasons, even if they are at the helm, they are not allowed to come or go at will. And now this man Worry is mostly due to this.

Seeing the man on duty entering the hall for no reason, Li Wuji also felt strange. He was originally uneasy after being told by Mi Yuhuai. Now his expression was even worse, and he said angrily, "Everyone on duty needs to enter the hall. I would like to inform the supervisor first that whoever allowed you to act like this is actually entering without permission. If he heard that there is an important matter within the gang, even if he sacrifices your life, you may not be able to survive in the end."
Mi Yuhuai was not angry at all. He shook his head at Li Wuji and asked, "Since he entered on his own initiative, he probably has something important to repay. Besides, what you and I just said is not an important matter. Let's tolerate this person." After all, it’s not too late to make plans.”
Although the man was frightened, he still took a few steps forward, handed the unopened letter in his sleeve to Mi Yu's hand, and whispered, "This matter is really urgent. Even if you know that you have violated the gang rules, how can you think of it?" I didn't dare to delay even a moment. After I took over the duty of duty this morning, I saw an old man dressed as a servant coming to deliver a message, saying that Ye Zhai, the master of the Baihu Sect, would set up a ring outside the county in the near future and invite me. Help me go to the meeting."
There were only a few words on the rice paper, but the handwriting was extremely clear. It was written with such tiny strokes that it looked like a thin sword cutting silk. It was so sharp that Mi Yuhuai's expression became slightly gloomy as he read it carefully. There are a few lines of small words, but the expression is as if it is snowing in the middle of winter, and there is no trace of blood at all.
Li Wuji's sharp eyes saw that the scholar's face suddenly turned pale. Compared with the time when he just entered the school, he was still much worse. He frowned and asked, "Mi Zongzong, what is stated in this letter? It actually made his face change drastically. .”
The scholar did not say anything, but placed the letter on the table. Without waiting for Li Wuji to ask again, he poured wine on it, stood up in a daze, and threw it into the wine-warming brazier. He was silent for a long time before slowly speaking.
"Leader Li, you must not discuss today's matter with the gang leader. The letter clearly states that the leader of the White Gourd Sect, who has never made a move in recent years, will also go to the ring in a few days. There are two dangers in this matter. , in addition to what I just said about the two joining forces to suppress the caravan, I am afraid that now I really need to add a Baihumen. Although it is troublesome, it is just an extra force to cover up the water and the soil. It will cost a few more points. That’s the mental strength, but the second thing is what worries me the most.”
"Although the gang leader has not been confused by martial arts, he himself is a competitive person. There is no second in martial arts. I also know it very well. If I know that the leader of the Baihu Sect has arrived in person, I am afraid that I will You can't help but come forward to discuss moves and fight. If you don't win, just return it. If you are injured or die, what will happen to the caravan?"
Mi Yuhuai pressed the odd points on both sides of his forehead, and suddenly felt that autumn was approaching day by day, and the fire in the fox fur could not drive it away.
