Chapter 56: Variance

Liu Han couldn't figure it out, why did this Master Bai become interested in Hanhai Trading Company, could it be that Bi Liang offended this surnamed Bai?

Back in Dajin, he must be careful every step he takes, and if he is not careful, he may not recover.

Someone came to pick up the goods, the guys in the yard were counting loudly, a few guys moved the goods out of the warehouse, put them in the yard to count, the sun shone hot in the yard, and the white slate was dazzling in the sun.

Liu Han was still holding the teacup, just like he was still in the earthquake pass, but his mind couldn't help but roll, from the beginning to the present, assassination, food delivery, betrayal, inexplicable blackmail, these things are not related, after thinking for a long time, Liu Han determined that these things happened in isolation, especially what happened in Guzang, and Chang'an was not connected at all.

Since there is no connection, then do you want to check that Master Bai, if you want to check, how should you check? Liu Han felt that there was nowhere to start, of course he could send someone to investigate, but his intuition told him that he couldn't find out, if this person had some purpose, he was so deep hidden, he would definitely be good at concealment, and unless he monitored it for a long time, it would be impossible to gain anything at all. Is it possible to monitor for a long time?

The answer is clearly no.

In addition to someone who purposefully investigated Hanhai Trading Company to investigate him Liu Han, there is another possibility, someone is eyeing Hanhai Trading Company, using this hand in the earthquake to test it, if so, what he may lose is the Chang'an Store of Hanhai Trading Company, which will have little impact on his ultimate goal.

Liu Han felt that he had made a mistake in arranging, and he brought all his hands to the imperial capital, there was no need for this.

For more than ten years, he imagined countless times what kind of person it was, he had those cards in his hand, and abolished a killer battalion, more than ten years have passed, and the second killer battalion may have been established, and his subordinates can mobilize super masters like the head of the chief instructor, and there may be a large group of samurai warriors, when he escaped death, he already had the strength of the four grades of the samurai, and the scholars faintly reached the realm of the seven grades of the samurai.

Therefore, to deal with him, it is also necessary to have a large number of powerful subordinates, so in the Western Regions over the years, he has cultivated a group of loyal subordinates and trained a group of subordinates who have cultivated to be superb, and this time he wants to take them to God.

But now, he feels that there is something wrong with this arrangement, he doesn't need to bring so many people to God, the people of God's capital should be capable, although cultivation is important, but more important is brain, flexible, and his stores distributed all over the country should become his eyes and ears, that person may or may not be in the imperial capital.

The geese have left traces, no matter how secretive that person is, there will always be clues.

The sky gradually darkened, and Liu Tie's footsteps appeared in the courtyard, although the footsteps were very light in the ears of ordinary people, but in his ears it was like a drum.

Liu Tie came to tell him that the fang ding was already urging and was about to close.

Liu Han came out, the cleaning of the store had been completed, and the guys were squatting or sitting in twos and threes, waiting for him.

"Let's go back, everyone be careful lately, and report to the store if you have to bear with me beforehand. Liu Han instructed, he must guard against it, the guys looked at each other, I don't know what this means, Qian Ming explained a little on the side, and the guys then understood, but then they became angry, five hundred taels, many people can't earn so much money in their lives, and they are clamoring to fight with the Iron Fist Club.

"Shut up! What are you fighting?" Liu Han shouted loudly, the courtyard was suddenly silent, the guys turned their heads to look at Liu Tie, as if they didn't understand why he was angry, Liu Han said slowly: "Now your first thing is to pay attention to your own safety, beware of the attack of the Iron Fist Club, no matter what, save your life first, and then say, if you have a life, come back and report a message, and the store will stand up for everyone." ”

Qian Ming also hurriedly explained: "Don't panic, don't be afraid, the master is already dealing with this matter, it's not a big deal, the master can even deal with the horse thieves on the Western Regions Trade Road, and the Iron Fist Society will never be more powerful than the horse thieves." ”

After saying a few words, the guys' emotions calmed down, closed the door of the shop, when they went out of the market, they were already the last group of people in the market, when they passed through the gate of the market, the young man muttered a few words of dissatisfaction, and the older man hurriedly knocked him aside, whispered a few words in his ear, and the young man looked at them sympathetically.

Every move in the market can't be hidden, today the Iron Fist will find the Hanhai Trading Company, which is the biggest news in the Fang City, although the result is not known, but looking at the excitement in the earthquake, it is estimated that the Hanhai Trading Company is bleeding.

It is the nature of human beings to sympathize with the weak, especially ordinary people, Fang Ding is obviously such a person, watching this group of people who were found by the Iron Fist Club go out, the two Fang Ding sighed while closing the door, they still remember that after the Iron Fist Society occupied the East Fang, they collected protection money from door to door, and there were a few shops who were unwilling to pay, but as a result, not only were people injured, but the goods were robbed and stolen, and finally they had to pay a higher protection fee.

"Alas, it's hard to see them dressed brightly, but it's hard to be behind their backs. The old man sighed, but the young man looked at him with a strange look.

"Don't look at it, this Hanhai trading company is one of the largest trading companies in the industry, why do you want to go there?"

"I want to go to the Iron Fist Club, damn it, I'll pay a little money every month, when will I save enough money to marry my daughter-in-law. Fang Ding muttered under his breath.

"I miss my daughter-in-law. ”

Fang Ding's words came from afar, Liu Han couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, gangs like the Iron Fist Society eat knife-headed rice, in the eyes of the official scholars, they are bandits, in the eyes of the common people, they are also bandits, but among many poor teenagers, they are very influential, and these little guys yearn for their style.

After dinner, Liu Han told Lao Huang about today's events, Lao Huang has no experience in these things, but this old guy's intuition is amazing, and he immediately realized that Master Bai has a problem, and then he has the same idea as Liu Han, whether this Master Bai is trying to make money or have other plans.

"Lao Huang, it seems that there is a problem with my original arrangement," Liu Han said slowly: "The manpower of our branches is too weak, so we need to strengthen it." ”

Lao Huang blinked his small eyes, frowned and asked, "What about the affairs of the imperial capital?"

"You don't need to bring so many people to God," Liu Han's tone was very slow, as if he was thinking while talking, but Lao Huang knew that the proprietor had already thought about it, otherwise he would never talk about it with him, and what he needed now was to check and fill in the gaps for him.

"If this is the god capital, our full strength will be exposed, which is not good for us, and the imperial capital does not need so many people. ”

Hearing this, Lao Huang smiled meaningfully at Liu Han, and Liu Han shrugged: "Those who are good at attacking move above the nine heavens, and those who are good at defending are hiding under the nine earths." Fiction is real, reality is fiction, fiction is real, true and false, let's have a good time with him. ”

"Then let's adjust it. Lao Huang returned to his original appearance and leaned lazily on the chair: "The imperial capital is not Guzang, nor Chang'an, the father-in-law in the palace is probably more powerful than that person." ”

Everyone in the world knows that there is a Duke Tu in the imperial capital Palace, this Duke Tu controls the Tiger Benwei, and his secret spies are all over the world, buried in all levels of the Great Jin Dynasty.

Lao Huang mentioned this Tu Gonggong, his expression was cold, when the King of Shaoyang County was in charge, he had weakened the authority of the palace eunuch and stripped Hu Benwei from the control of the palace eunuch, which was the only one of the many policies of the King of Shaoyang that was welcomed by the gate lord clan, but it also offended the terrifying Duke Tu, and a few years later, the Shi clan united the power of the palace and put the king of Shaoyang County to death in one fell swoop.

"Lao Huang, it seems that you are an enemy of the Manchu Dynasty, I really don't know if it is right or wrong to take you into Beijing. Liu Han said with a teasing smile, Lao Huang was silent for a while, and also showed a faint smile, Liu Han felt that he was very lucky, he actually recruited Lao Huang in the Western Regions, and with Lao Huang, it was equivalent to giving a guide.

But Lao Huang also felt that he was very lucky, when the reform of the king of Shaoyang County was at the climax, he left himself a way back, and later this retreat took effect, resulting in him not being sentenced to be killed, but exiled, but the enemy in the court still exiled him to Biansai, and it was such a dangerous place, I am afraid that the purpose was to let him be killed or plundered by the Hu people, and then they really achieved their goal, but I didn't expect that he was lucky, and he actually met Liu Han in the Western Regions.

Now the two lucky ones are together and ready to start their plans.

That night, Liu Han made adjustments, leaving twelve people for Liu Shui, letting Liu Bing take twelve people to Guzang to assist the king's shopkeeper, let Liu Nian take twelve people to Bingzhou, Liu Hua to take twelve people to Youzhou, and the rest to the imperial capital, and finally the number of people left in the capital of God should not exceed fifty.

"Actually, you can buy a dock fort," Lao Huang waited for his assignment to be decided before he slowly suggested: "Your current identity is the Shu clan, and the Shu clan can establish a dock fort, and then raise some private soldiers." ”

This dock fort is a bit like a small city, mostly inhabited by clans, usually scattered around, when it comes to war or **** period, it is gathered in the fort to avoid war. Because it is their own place to avoid chaos, all these dock forts are stronger than the general county town, and the gate lord clan has private soldiers, these private soldiers are not many, but they are all brave and good at fighting, some of the private soldiers of the dock fort of the wealthy clan, the equipment is even stronger than the official army, so whether it is the rebel rebels, or the plundering Hu people, they are not willing to attack this kind of dock fort, which is time-consuming and laborious, and the casualties are extremely large.

Such a dock fort is the most in the border fortress, taking Liangzhou as an example, as long as there are conditions, whether it is the gate lord clan or the Shu clan, there are dock forts, and some even have more than one, the Ma family with the most private soldiers, the number of people is as high as more than 1,000 people, and they are stationed in five dock forts.

The sources of private soldiers are complex, some are tenants, some are reckless people who take refuge in the rivers and lakes, and some are slaves, especially in the border areas. Bitter cold on the side, wars are continuous, you can buy all kinds of slaves at any time, and they are cheap, these slaves are also willing to be private soldiers, the treatment of private soldiers is excellent, no need to work, every day is to practice martial arts, if you are lucky, go to the battlefield with the master, make meritorious contributions, and upgrade immediately, what you want, the reward is even thicker than the imperial court.

"Private, pull it down, it's too much. Liu Han shook his head and said.

"Who said that you want to raise it in the imperial capital," Lao Huang said: "Aren't you scattered, raised in various places, Guzang Chang'an and Youzhou, as well as Qingzhou and Chenzhou, you can raise them." ”

Liu Han didn't answer, Lao Huang sighed: "Before you think about retreating, your advantage is to be alone, and your weakness is also to be alone, you have taught thirty-six iron guards, but only these thirty-six are not enough, the gate lord clan, the high gate and the deep house, how many people with profound cultivation are hidden, the person you want to deal with, there are countless strong players under him, even you are trained by him, and you also say that he is very rich, so does he raise private soldiers?"

"Well, let them try it first, buy some slaves first, try it. Liu Han finally relented, Lao Huang's expression was calm, and he sighed silently.

Until now, that person has not moved at all, and is still hiding under the Nine Lands.
