Su Qian was not surprised by the sudden sound. He raised his head and said to the air.
"Miss Jiu, if you have any suggestions, just tell me. There is no need to show off here."
Immediately afterwards, a figure came quickly into the room, and a girl in a red dress appeared.
Since the last meeting between Miss Jiu and Qin Ziyin, Miss Jiu has never appeared for more than a month.
Su Qi'an was not surprised that Miss Ninth's whereabouts were erratic.
The two have been together for a while, and they still understand Miss Jiu's personality. If she really had any bad intentions, how could Su Qi'an be able to sit there as stable as a mountain?
As long as she has no bad intentions, Su Qi'an will not ask where Miss Ninth goes. Likewise, Miss Ninth will not interfere with Su Qi'an's actions.
The two sides maintained a tacit understanding in this way.
Miss Ninth moved and sat on the chair casually, as if she were at home. She drank tea and looked at Su Qi'an with her lips curled up.
"This is the attitude of asking for advice."
"Okay, okay, Miss Ninth, if you have any insights that can break this current situation, please enlighten me."
Su Qi'an stood up and bowed respectfully to Miss Ninth.
Looking at this appearance, Miss Ninth smiled and nodded with great satisfaction.
With a wave of his hand, a scroll flew towards Su Qi'an.
Su Qi'an stretched out his palm and took the scroll. The scroll opened with a road map on it.
Looking at the route on the map, it is not Xizhou City, it should be a suburb outside the city, and it should be some distance from the city.
"Miss Jiu, what are you doing?" "
"This is the breaking point you are looking for. Even if you take over the Gongsun family's property, it will only hurt the Gongsun family at most."
"To be able to become a member of a noble family, one's background is not that simple."
"And the one in this picture is what really hurts the Gongsun family."
"Miss Jiu, is the source of this picture reliable?"
Hearing this, Miss Ninth raised her brows, obviously unhappy, "Humph, believe it or not, I will go on this trip anyway, whether you come or not, whatever you discover then, it will all be mine. of."
"Don't be angry, Miss Ninth. Su apologizes to you because he considers the safety of his family. With what Miss Ninth said, Su will accompany you no matter what he says this time."
"That's pretty much it. You clean up. We'll see you in an hour."
Miss Ninth left these words behind, stood up and left, with such a vigorous and resolute manner that Qin Huai snickered a little.
Unexpectedly, his brother-in-law, who was fearless, would now have another person who could control him.
Su Qi'an rolled his eyes and warned Qin Huai not to talk nonsense. Then he stood up, said hello, and started the next arrangement.
An hour later, at the gate of Su's house, a carriage stopped early. After a while, a figure shrouded in black robes got on the carriage.
There were a large number of soldiers guarding the carriage, led by Captain Wang, and the carriage drove slowly.
As the carriage left, there were countless eyes staring at it, and in the distance, a large number of people were walking like shadows.
At the same time, inside the Su residence, more than a dozen figures stood in front of the courtyard wall.
Except for the leader, who is a young man, the rest of these people have dark skin.
A woman dressed in maid's clothing stood next to the young man.
These two people are Su Qi'an and Miss Jiu, and the person behind them is Heilu who Su Qi'an bought back.
Miss Ninth said jokingly, "It seems that Mr. Su has become a big celebrity in Xizhou City. How about it? It doesn't feel good to be a celebrity."
Su Qi'an nodded helplessly. He had no choice. Ever since he became famous in Xizhou City, whenever he left Su's house, he would be followed by a lot of flies that he couldn't shake off.
In order to have a smooth trip this time, Su Qi'an made full preparations. Qin Huai took his place at the front door and took the flies in circles.
And he could only leave quietly through the back door.
Shaking her head, Su Qian said, "Let's go."
The next moment, a group of people climbed directly over the courtyard wall. When they landed, their appearance changed.
It's not that he's disguised, but his temperament has changed. From a distance, he looks obviously dandy.
A group of people swaggered out of the alley, got on the carriage, and quietly headed out of the city.
The place where Su Qi'an and the others went this time was some distance from Xizhou City, about ten miles.
It was already a suburb outside the city, and they were not taking the official road this time.
It is a secluded path with dense woods on both sides of the road.
The sun is shining brightly and the trees are lush. This kind of road is very quiet, but it is also a good place for robbery.
There are naturally no so-called bandits in Xizhou City, but outside the city, in the suburbs more than ten miles away, there will always be some desperate people who are determined to go up the mountain to become bandits.
These bandits are very smart and will never rob the children of wealthy and powerful families.
Generally, the targets selected are all big businessmen, and they will never kill people or steal goods.
Even if they are kidnapped, as long as they give enough silver, they will be released.
This is not because the bandits are kind-hearted, but because they know how to do business for a long time.
No lives were lost, and the kidnappers were not members of aristocratic or powerful families. Even if the bandits were suppressed, it was just a show.
Over time, these bandits wandering on the outskirts of the city reached an agreement with the gangsters in the city.
If you pay enough protection fees every year, you can live on the outskirts of the city without harming anyone.
The road Su Qi'an took was considered by the bandits on the outskirts of the city to be the most profitable place.
The carriage drove slowly by, and beside it were a group of black men. However, the black men were dressed like servants hired by merchants.
Su Qi'an and Miss Ninth were sitting in the car. Compared to Su Qi'an who was calm, Miss Ninth in the car seemed a little excited.
She looked out at the scenery outside and thought to herself, "Why don't these bandits take action? They are really a bunch of ink-stained guys."
In other words, only Miss Ninth dared to say such words. If it were anyone else, it would be too late to hide.
Su Qi'an smiled and said, "Miss Ninth is really impatient. I hope this journey will help us gain something."
"Just watch, there will definitely be big fish this time." Miss Ninth said confidently.
Su Qian nodded and was about to say something. Suddenly, his expression changed and he said with a smile, "They are here."
The moment the sound fell, an arrow was shot out from the dense forest on both sides at extremely high speed.
The arrow hit directly a few meters in front of the carriage, and the tail of the arrow swayed.
The carriage stopped immediately, and then, about forty or fifty bandits rushed down from the dense forest on both sides.
Each one held a big sword and directly surrounded Su Qi'an's team.
Hei Lu, who was guarding both sides, had already received the order, showed a look of fear, and retreated continuously.
The next moment, Su Qian came out of the carriage, jumped down, and looked at the bandits. He was startled at first, and then laughed, cupped his hands, and said to the big man who led them.
"I don't know which mountain master has arrived. I'm sorry for missing you. I hope you'll forgive me."
Saying that, he quickly stuffed the banknotes.
"Hmph, you are quite sensible." The big man at the head nodded with great satisfaction.
After sending the banknote, Su Qi'an said with a smile on his face, "Uncle, we are doing a small business. I hope you can let us go. I'm very grateful."
The leading man glanced at Su Qi'an and ignored him. He turned his eyes and looked at the carriage ahead.
He said loudly, "Stop hiding. I can smell it from several miles away. Come out."
After a while, the car curtain opened, and Miss Ninth got out of the car in a panic, looking frightened, and hid behind Su Qi'an.
The head of the big man's eyes suddenly lit up and he said with a smile, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, this trip is not bad, she is still a beautiful woman, not bad."
"Brothers, take action and bring them all back to the mountain. I think the boss will be very happy to know this."
"Sir, didn't you take the money? Why don't you let us go?"
Su Qian quickly stepped forward and begged for mercy.
The leader of the big men snorted coldly, "Humph, let me go? The little money you have is not even enough to send the beggar away."
"Come back to the mountain with us, obediently. We need some manpower during this time on the mountain. As long as you obey, I promise to let you go down the mountain as soon as the matter is over."
"We still have credibility. You should understand. If you don't obey, you know what will happen!"
"This...this, okay, sir, don't do anything, we will do it ourselves."
Su Qi'an sighed, and then he and a group of Black Lu tied each other and stood together.
"You know what you are doing, don't worry, as long as you are obedient, I will let you suffer less and take them all away."
After a while, Su Qi'an and others were surrounded by a group of bandits and walked away.
The base camp of the bandits on the outskirts of the city does not occupy a hilltop, but a stockade.
It's just that this village is relatively secretive, hidden in the dense forest, and it's far away, at least ten miles away.
In such a remote place, it would be difficult to find it without a large-scale search.
Everyone was escorted all the way to the village, and the leader of the group, the big man, shouted loudly to the gate of the village.
"Hurry up and open the door. I, Li Wu, am back. Quickly report to the boss. This time the harvest is not small."
The village gate opened, and soon a bearded man was seen, surrounded by a group of bandits.
Li Wu stepped forward quickly and said with excitement, "Master, look, the quality of the meat tickets caught this time is not bad. Look at these servants, they are arranged to go to the back mountain to work as coolies for a few days. There is absolutely no problem. For that one of us It’s an explanation.”
After the voice fell, the bearded headmaster stopped Li Wu with a cold expression.
The headmaster shook his head and whispered, "These people are indeed good, but it's better to be careful. They must be strictly monitored before sending them away."
Li Wu nodded heavily and then said, "Master, look, not only are these coolies brought back this time, but there is also a pretty beauty. How about we..."
The headmaster turned his eyes and looked at Miss Ninth in the crowd. His cold expression softened and he patted Li Wu on the shoulder.
"Well, Li Wu, you did a good job this time. When this happens, I won't be able to treat you badly."
"Hey, thank you so much, Master."
"Those good guys before have paid tribute to those gentlemen. This time it's finally our turn. Brothers, bring them in."
Li Wu's face was full of excitement and he ignored Su Qi'an who was being escorted into the village.
His eyes were fixed on Miss Ninth, wandering back and forth.
He suppressed his excitement and signaled that the nine girls should be brought to the Dangdang's residence to enjoy the beauties in order.
As everyone entered the village, a deep voice sounded in the ears of the boss, Li Wu.
"I didn't expect there to be such a secret bandit camp here. It's interesting. Let's take action. Except for these two, no one else will be left."
