When receiving the membership application from Yunyingzhai, Xie Yu also looked puzzled.
He didn't understand why Huo Feng from Yunying Village was so crazy?
How could he suddenly put aside his past hatred and surrender to his enemies?
So Xie Yu asked someone to find out if anything big happened in Yingzhou recently?
After the news about Mao Tou came back, Xie Yu realized that the matter was serious!
This Huo Feng's basket is really not that big!
He estimated that the current Zhizhou Caojian could not sit still.
The reason why Huo Feng wanted to join the "Emergency Development Committee" at this time was probably Cao Jian's instruction.
He wants to spread the hatred caused by Yunying Village to all the bandits in Yingzhou!
Xie Yu analyzed the matter to Bai Xiaonan.
Bai Xiaonan was ready to have someone reject Yunying Village on the spot.
As a result, Xie Yu stopped Bai Xiaonan.
"Why did you refuse? It's a good thing that he wants to join! During this time, Cao Jian has been stuck in the Ying and Development Committee. Now if Yunyingzhai can join, there is no reason for Cao Jian to be stuck in the Ying and Development Committee. .”
"Let him join! And I told the people in Yunying Village that the position of vice president of the Development Committee is reserved for him! But the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. As the vice president, he should do more Be responsible! The standard for the vice president’s dues is five hundred taels a year! Let him pay for ten years first!”
Ten years is five thousand taels!
Bai Xiaonan felt that Xie Yu's words were a disguised attempt to persuade Yunying Village to retreat.
So after the messenger left, Bai Xiaonan asked hesitantly: "Then Huo Feng... won't agree to such an outrageous condition, right?"
"It doesn't matter whether he agrees or not. Anyway, there is no loss for us." Xie Yu said casually, "But... now we, the bandits in Yingzhou, are going to have a hard time! We have to think of a way!"
Xie Yu understood that things this time were not as easy to settle as before.
If the higher-ups want to appease the Oala people, then the bandits will be suppressed for sure! And when the time comes, it will definitely not be just the Yunyingzhai family that will be suppressed!
So judging from the current situation, whether Huo Feng joins the Yingzhou Bandit or not, the Yingzhou bandits are just like grasshoppers on a rope!
Xie Yu sighed: I have a headache!
…
Huo Feng has also been a little anxious these past two days.
After receiving the letter from his brother-in-law Cao Jian, Huo Feng also understood how much trouble he had caused.
In order to avoid being scolded, he simply stopped "annoying" his brother-in-law.
He directly read the letter written by Cao Jian to him over and over again several times.
Finally, a theme was determined: no matter what, we must join the "Committee on Development and Response".
But... when the messenger from Baishizhai replied and told him the conditions for joining the "Emergency Development Committee", Huo Feng almost chopped the messenger with a knife.
"Why? Why do others only have to pay a hundred taels of membership fees to join, but I, Yunying Village, have to pay five thousand taels to join?"
Acting as messengers were Liuzi's army of men.
This kid is also quite clever in the mountains.
He could see the violence in Huo Feng's eyes!
In order to avoid further irritating this guy, Dajun thought about his words for a while and said: "Our boss said, this is a responsibility! Of course, the greater the responsibility you bear, the greater the final benefit!"
"This is just like buying and selling shares. If someone else buys a hundred taels of shares, you can only get a share of one hundred taels in the end. If you buy a share of 5,000 taels, and you split the money later, you will definitely get the big share!" "
"Huh? Really?" Huo Feng felt much more comfortable after hearing this explanation.
Later, when I thought about it more carefully, five thousand taels was the membership fee for ten years. On average, it was only five hundred taels a year!
Five hundred taels is really not much!
Think again about what his brother-in-law told him in his letter: he must join the "Emergency Development Committee" no matter what.
Thinking of this, Huo Feng felt balanced.
"Okay, five thousand... taels, just five thousand taels! I'll hand it over!"
He figured it all out, but when it came time to hand over the money, Huo Feng still felt a lot of pain.
He suddenly felt that when it came to being a bandit, the people in Baishi Village were indeed more talented than him!
He worked so hard to rob the Wala people's envoy, and the gold and silver he obtained went into other people's pockets before they were warmed up!
It seems that in the future, I will have to learn more from the people in Baishi Village, and become a bandit... I have to change my mind!
…
Xie Yu asked the people of Yunyingzhai to pay a membership fee of five thousand taels, which was actually a bit of nonsense.
But when the army really returned to the mountain with five hundred taels of gold, Xie Yu was stunned for a long time: "He really handed it over?"
Xie Yu couldn't help but gasped: If I had known it, I would have ordered more.
The current exchange rate in the Yong Dynasty is one tael of gold and ten taels of silver.
And looking at the fineness of the gold, Xie Yu guessed that it was a reward from the capital to the Wala people.
Although it was royal money, Xie Yu didn't feel it was hot.
Just ask someone to remelt it later.
What Xie Yu is worried about now is what's going on with the envoys.
I heard that the diplomatic mission is now "detained" in Datong Mansion by the prefect Luo Yongshi.
This is a good thing.
It shows that Luo Yongshi also knows the seriousness of the matter.
And Cao Jian also sent several letters a day to Luo Yongshi.
Xie Yu had no idea what was in the letter. But the days of Wu Jingtong, the magistrate of Danta County, have become increasingly difficult these days.
It is said that Cao Jian transferred the people from Andong Zhongtun Guards to Ta County. They directly surrounded Wu Jingtong's family at home and did not let Wu Jingtong leave even half a step.
Judging from Cao Jian's posture, he was probably planning to put all the blame this time on Wu Jingtong's head.
Cruel enough!
Wu Jingtong was trapped in Ta County. Not to mention running away, he couldn't even deliver letters outside.
But money can make the world go round, and there are always more solutions than difficulties!
Wu Jingtong finally relied on money to clear the way, found someone to help, and delivered a letter asking for help to Huaxuan Club.
When Xie Yu got the letter, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
This time Wu Jingtong also lost his head.
He thought that the Huaxuan Club owned 20% of Cao Jian's shares, so when this letter was sent to the Huaxuan Club, it would eventually reach Cao Jian's hands.
In the letter, Wu Jingtong spoke sincerely and expressed his hope to cling to Cao Jian's thigh. Then he recalled the past and told about the things he had done under the leadership of Mr. Cao Jian Cao.
The letter was a combination of soft and hard tactics, and the begging for mercy contained the threat of death and destruction!
Mao Tou asked Xie Yu what to do with the letter.
Xie Yu thought for a while, then directly painted the letter and resealed it, and then asked him to hand the letter to Cao Jian.
After Mao Tou handed over the letter, he came back and told Xie Yu that Cao Jian didn't say anything.
But one day later, the number of guards outside Wu Jingtong's mansion doubled again!
Xie Yu immediately understood that Cao Jian was determined to kill Wu Jingtong this time.
So Xie Yu simply packed up his things, took the short gun that Yu Bai gave him with him, and then called Bai Xiaonan to go down the mountain with him.
"Down the mountain? Where to go?"
Bai Xiaonan was a little confused.
During this period, Xie Yu traveled frequently to Ta County, Yingzhou and Zhaizi, but basically he had no intention of inviting her to go with him.
Why are you taking her with you this time?
Xie Yu checked the horses and finally said: "Go to Datong! We have to find a way for our colleagues to survive! Then we can take the opportunity to make a small fortune!"
