Ryan stood stupidly in front of Xu Yunyan again, but Xu Yunyan had already made plans for the next step.
He looked at Ryan again and shook his head.
"There is no need for you to stay here anymore. What you have to do now is to keep a low profile and be ready for opportunities at any time. As soon as something happens in Lane City, you can immediately bring order to the overall situation and bring new hope to the people of Lane City."
After Xu Yunyan said this, Ryan nodded immediately.
"Don't worry, Master, I won't let you down."
After Ryan nodded, he was sent away by Xu Yunyan. Xu Yunyan looked at Ryan VI Shuke who was walking away, then looked at the people next to him, and hurriedly made arrangements there.
"Now let's sell all the goods first, no matter whether they are cheap or not, exchange them for the supplies we need, return to the camp, and wait until we have new supplies to prepare for coming to Lane City."
Xu Yunyan had no choice. He originally wanted to leave manpower time and time again, and when enough manpower was left, he would launch a one-time attack to completely control Lane Yin City in his own hands.
But now there is an opportunity. A young master named Ryan VI Baker gave himself a dagger that could represent his identity. Then he would be able to travel unimpeded. Ryan City would be undefended against him.
Why bother with troublesome steps when it’s so convenient?
When Xu Yunyan and the others returned to the carriage house, Sun Ning looked at Xu Yunyan who came back happily. He was so happy that he couldn't help but hurried forward.
"Did something happy happen to my husband? Seeing you smiling so happily, there must be some good news, right?"
Xu Yunyan looked at the people coming up
Sun Ning hurriedly hugged her.
"Madam, there is really good news this time, great news."
Just when Sun Ning was confused, Xu Yunyan talked about his good news today.
After hearing Xu Yunyan tell him the good news, Sun Ning was also happy there.
When his husband encounters good news, doesn't it mean that she encounters good news, and doesn't it mean that her brothers and sisters encounter good news?
"Husband, you are amazing. I never thought that setting up a stall would yield such unexpected gains."
Xu Yunyan nodded.
"Just when we have this opportunity, we quickly go back to deploy manpower and see if we can find a place to supplement the manpower. We still have too few people. Although there are five or six hundred warriors, for a huge city , five or six hundred people will not have any effect."
When Sun Ning heard what Xu Yunyan had just said, he looked at Xu Yunyan curiously.
"But husband, aren't there only three to five hundred soldiers in the Rhine City in the city? They can clearly regulate the control of the Rhine City. Could it be that we have more people than them, so we can't do anything when we enter the Rhine City? ?”
Xu Yunyan saw that Sun Ning was taking things for granted, and started to learn more about the situation in the Rhine City with her.
In addition to the armored soldiers in Lane City, there are also many patrolling guards and dispute handlers. They are not included in the team, and the noble families also have some to maintain the stability of their area. Household servants, these people are also not considered.
If these people are included in Lane City, there will be at least nearly a thousand people.
This time Sun Ning was a little unhappy.
"But as long as we are clean and not guilty, where can we find so many people?
Even all the teams that went out to search for people around the Rhine City were eliminated by us, and we only had so few people. Where can we find the other people? Presumably the villages around Lane City have been abandoned a lot, right? "
As soon as Sun Ning finished speaking, Xu Yunyan looked at Sun Ning and kept nodding.
“Madam’s thinking is right, but since we have reached this situation, we cannot give up Lane City easily.
There is no place around Lane City that can replenish our population, so let's go back to the grassland. There will be some like-minded people in the grassland, right? "
Although Xu Yunyan did not say clearly what kind of person this like-minded person was, Sun Ning nodded.
"Then just listen to your husband. If nothing can be done, we will stay on the grassland and never come back."
"How could we not come back? The grassland is where we will gain a foothold in the future. After all, Lane City is the territory of the black-clad cannibals. We have to let Lane preside over it openly. There is no way for us to act openly in Lane City. "
After Xu Yunyan finished speaking, Sun Ning looked at Xu Yunyan, "Everything depends on my husband. We will do whatever he arranges."
"Very good, then we can return to the camp to clean up."
"OK."
When Xu Yunyan led Sun Ning and his party out of the city, they came to the city gate and ran into the black-clothed guards who were making things difficult for them to enter the city. After they saw Xu Yunyan, no matter what their identity was, they were all touching. He walked forward with his chin in a nonchalant manner.
"I didn't expect your team to fail.
You are really capable. You have gained a lot of money so quickly, and you have also purchased so much food special to Lane City. Are you going back? "
Xu Yunyan nodded, "Yes, we are going back. After all, we have been away for a long time, so we can't stay in Lane City for a long time, right?"
After Xu Yunyan said polite words to them, those people rubbed their chins, "Since you have obtained so many treasures in Lane City, you have to keep some no matter what, right? What if you take away everything in Lane City?" ,what should we do?"
Xu Yunyan looked at them and sneered.
"It's just that I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you this time. We didn't know the path when we came here, and we didn't know the top of the mountain. But we have paid tribute to you. Why do you have to make things difficult for us this time? We didn't go out this time just for the sake of Do you have to do this for your own affairs?”
But just after Xu Yunyan finished speaking, the guard guard suddenly stepped forward and snorted coldly.
"Who do you think you are? It's not up to you to come when you want and leave when you want.
In Lane City, there are not ten but eight businessmen like you. You have to pay a certain amount of money for each entry and exit. This is the rule of Lane City. Do you still want to break the rules of Lane City? "
"is that so?"
After the soldier finished speaking, Xu Yunyan still didn't want to listen to him and handed him the money he had worked so hard to obtain. The soldier stepped forward and continued to threaten.
"Do you have anything to say? If you don't tell me why, I won't spare you the knife in my hand.
You can't go out safely even if you want to. Think about it carefully.
Down. We do what we say, this is Lane City! "
The little leader was very proud, and the soldiers beside him also hurriedly gathered around, looking like they were watching a good show.
If their little leader takes action, they will be criticized by the little leader if they don't, and as long as their little leader gets rich, they can always get a sip of soup.
Looking at the group of people coming up around him, Xu Yunyan sighed.
"Why don't you just be your guards? Why don't you live a good life? Why do you have to force me? This is your own choice. You can't blame me."
While Xu Yunyan was speaking, he was about to take out Baker's dagger from his arms, and the guards laughed even more when they heard Xu Yunyan's words.
"Interesting, what do you think you do and want us to live well? It's really bizarre. Do you still want to fight us in Lane City?"
Xu Yunyan looked at them and sighed.
"It's not that I want to fight you, but what you did this time is really too much. I have a mission anyway, and I'm not without a backer."
Xu Yunyan spoke righteously, and the guards even laughed at Lan Xu Yunyan's jokes.
However, Xu Yunyan didn't care about their attitude towards her. Instead, she raised her hand and took out the dagger that Baker gave her, shaking it in her hand.
"Do you know what this is?"
When the guard saw the dagger in Xu Yunyan's hand, he couldn't help but tremble.
"How come you have our young master's dagger? This is impossible. It is impossible for our young master's dagger to be given to others at will."
Xu Yun
Yan saw that the guard finally recognized Baker's dagger, and immediately started talking here.
"I also met Master Baker by chance. Master Baker also arranged a task for me and asked me to get some things that Master Baker needs. It's hard for you not to live here, and you also said that I won't be able to leave Lane City. , Okay, I'll go back and talk to Master Baker to see if I did the right thing or you did it. Do I need to pay you some respect? Can Master Baker allow me to go out? "
Just after Xu Yunyan finished speaking, the personal guard in front of him became scared and hurriedly began to admit his mistake.
"It's all because I'm blind, you can just leave and I won't embarrass you anymore."
Xu Yunyan looked at him like this and then touched his chin and said.
"But I was named by Master Baker to buy something for him. Master Baker didn't say that I need your permission to enter and leave Lane City, and I have to pay you taxes."
Xu Yunyan is completely using the tiger skin as a banner, and Xu Yunyan is also powerful and doesn't care about the few people in front of him. Speaking of which, the population in his team is larger than the dozen or so idle soldiers in black who are guarding the door. , and all of them were full of hatred for these black-clad soldiers.
When they did it themselves, it was obvious who would teach whom because of Baker's relationship. It must be Xu Yunyan who taught them a lesson.
After Xu Yunyan finished speaking, the gatekeeper's face looked so ugly.
"What do you mean?"
"I don't have many intentions, I just want to tell you not to have any other intentions towards me."
Xu Yunyan's words, which seemed like a warning, made the person in front of him grit his teeth.
"Okay, you can be cruel, I understand."
Then he saw the soldiers around him, "Why are you still standing there, why don't you just take all the money you have and give it to this one?"
Unsure of Xu Yunyan's identity, the soldiers guarding the city had no choice but to recognize Xu Yunyan as a Baker merchant. However, the younger brothers next to him suffered a serious crime after the leader yelled at them to come up with money.
"How can we be asked to pay? We didn't ask for the money he just provided. Isn't it appropriate for us to just take the money?"
Although they were all very unbalanced, after seeing the leader's murderous look, they trembled hurriedly and started to take out the money on their bodies. When they finally took out dozens of dinars, the leader's eyes were filled with tears. He walked forward resentfully and handed the dinar in his hand to Xu Yunyan.
"Is this okay?"
Xu Yunyan took the dinar and shook it.
"Yes, you are very good. I will be back in a few days. When that time comes, I hope you brothers can take good care of me and let me enter the city."
After Xu Yunyan said these words, he took the caravan and set off. Looking at the caravan going away, the leader's eyes were even more angry.
"Just wait. As long as you complete the task for Mr. Linebeck, I will not let you go."
