Chapter 1007: Also a bandit?

"Brother Li really hides everything..."

When setting off again, the man surnamed Wang showed a look of shame on his face and said: "In the past two days, Mr. Wang was really a bit of a mastermind. I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed..."

Only then did he understand why the other party dared to walk in Shuzhou without any bodyguards. Brother Fang alone was worth their entire escort agency.

Even saying this seems to be a bit flattering. After all, facing dozens of bandits, they had no choice but to lay down their weapons and surrender.

Not to mention the heroine who only shows one hand and makes people tremble with fear, and the old man who always makes people shudder even though he is old. Even Brother Li himself is very skilled. How can such a combination come true? He doesn't even look like an ordinary person.

"Try hard and don't be lazy!"

"Hurry up, you haven't eaten yet!"

"You, I'm talking about you, whatever you look at, I'll dig out your eyeballs!"

The escorts were sitting in the car, holding a straw rope as a whip, and occasionally whipped the bandit pushing the cart behind.

More bandits followed, their hands tied and strung together with a rope, and the other end of the rope was tied to the carriage.

After chatting for a while, Wang Chang finally couldn't help but ask: "What does Brother Li's family do?"

"Like them, they are also bandits."

"Bandit?" Wang Chang was stunned, shook his head and said, "Brother Li is joking again."

"I used to live in places like Qing'an Prefecture and Kyoto, but the government in these places was very strict and it was not easy to live..." Li Yi explained: "I heard that there are so many bandits in Shuzhou, and the government doesn't care much about it, so I just I plan to come here and develop.”

Wang Chang smiled, of course he didn't believe what he said. He didn't mention Brother Li's polite appearance, but he said those women looked like bandits. He shook his head and didn't care, and asked: "Li What are the brothers and their families doing in Shuzhou? They’re not really here for fun, are they?”

These days, no one believes the truth. Li Yi sighed and said: "It's true that I'm going to have a little business at home. Shuzhou is a special place. It's not far from Qi and Wu. I was wondering if I could come here." Make your business bigger..."

Although there are many frictions between Qi State and Jing State, this does not affect the commercial exchanges between the two countries. Every year, many businessmen travel between the two countries. When he first saw Brother Li, he could tell that he was interested in each other. Either rich or noble, not an ordinary person.

Wang Chang thought for a while and reminded: "There are many caravans in Shuzhou traveling between Jingguo and Qiguo. Unfortunately, I have cooperated with two of them. Brother Li has just arrived and is not very familiar with this place. If you are interested, , I can tell you something. It is much safer and more convenient for you to join a certain caravan."

Li Yi said politely: "Thank you so much, Brother Wang."

"You're welcome." Wang Chang shook his head and said, "However, you can go to Qi State, but it is better for Brother Li not to go to Wu State."

Li Yi looked at him and said in surprise: "Why is this?"

On a horse in front, Miss Liu Er tilted her head slightly.

Wang Chang explained: "The situation in Wu State is different from that of Qi State and Jing State. Although they are not hostile to our merchants from Jing State, Wu State is now full of rebellions and the country is in turmoil. No caravan is willing to risk going to Wu State. For the sake of Losing money and lives is not worth it.”

Li Yi smiled and said, "I understand, thank you, Brother Wang."

For Shuzhou, Li Yi had already made arrangements a few years ago.

Now Goulan has opened all over Shuzhou, and Home Inn has also fully covered the seven counties of Shuzhou. A huge information and intelligence network has been established for a long time. The situation in Shuzhou does not need him to introduce too much.

Although business is just getting started, this is just the beginning. In the coming days, business will be one of the directions for vigorous development.

Of course, there is still a lot to do before that.

Shuzhou is remote and the people are poor. Although Yongxian County, where the state capital is located, is relatively rich, it is not much richer.

Therefore, when a carriage that looked very exquisite and luxurious drove into the city gate, all the people passing by stopped to watch.

Of course, there is another reason why they can't take their eyes away.

Behind the last carriage, there was a long queue.

A group of dozens of people were tied with ropes and followed behind the carriage. Some pedestrians took a few glances and immediately recognized their identities.

"This, these are the bandits from the Heihu Valley area!"

"I recognized it. The one at the front is not Lin Ershangzi. He is the biggest bandit leader in the Heihu Gou area!"

"This Lin Ershangzi is the most insane. Six months ago, my old sow was just a few days away from giving birth. He was the one who ruined it!"

"How did they get caught? Which hero did this? I didn't expect these people to be where they are today. It's so satisfying!"

"But I heard that Lin Ershangzi has some relationship with County Magistrate Zhang. Could it be..."

We originally planned to arrive in Yong County that evening, but the trip was delayed because of the bandits. We rested for one night and arrived at Yong County at noon the next day.

Prince Jing's Mansion is still under construction. When Li Yi set out from Kyoto, he sent a letter here. Prince Jing's Mansion cannot be lived in before it is completely built, but they have renovated the original Prince Shu Mansion, so they can take a break first. Rest your feet.

I had some small grudges with the King of Shu before, but now I have to occupy someone else's place, and I still feel a little uneasy.

But there are many people in the family, so we need a bigger place. We can't take Ruyi and the others to stay in an inn...

Before settling down, we have to deal with these bandits first.

The Yong County government office is not far from the city gate. Led by Wang Chang, the group quickly walked to the gate of the county government office.

The yamen runner on duty at the gate of the government office leaned against the wall and dozed off. Suddenly, he felt a black screen in front of his eyes. He opened his eyes, looked up at the people opposite, and frowned and said, "What are you guys doing!"

Wang Chang walked up, bowed, and said, "Brother, we caught a few bandits on the road. We dare not deal with them privately, so we brought them to the county government office."

"Bandits?" The yamen runner asked impatiently, looked around, and asked, "Where are they?"

"Come out, hurry up!"

A bodyguard pulled the dozens of people out from behind the carriage with a rope.

The yamen runner looked at them with wide eyes and immediately ran into the government office.

When he ran into the door, he stopped again and turned back and said, "You wait here, I'll go ask the county magistrate!"

The county magistrate of Yong County is named Zhang, and he has just taken office.

He can be promoted from county magistrate to county magistrate in just a few years, thanks to his predecessor.

Some time ago, because of the burden of the King of Shu, the previous county magistrate of Yong County, that is, his predecessor, was escorted to Beijing as a member of the King of Shu's party after the King of Shu fled. Now he has been exiled to move stones for a long time.

Therefore, he, the county magistrate, was naturally promoted to the top leader of Yong County.

Especially when the new governor was transferred away and there was no governor in the state capital, he was the absolute ruler here.

Speaking of which, I have to thank His Royal Highness the King of Shu for not accepting his kindness. As a small county magistrate, I personally went to the door to give gifts several times, but I didn't see the King of Shu. Maybe the King of Shu didn't bother to recruit a small county magistrate at that time...

In short---now this Yong County is his territory.

At this moment, he sat in the back hall, took a sip of tea, frowned and said: "Xiaoer has become more and more ignorant recently. He hasn't come for a whole month."

A woman who was massaging his shoulders behind him said softly: "Master, you are wrong about Xiaoer. You know that business is difficult recently. A group of bald men rob them, causing them to have no home to return to and can only do some small jobs. Their lives are not easy, but they definitely haven't forgotten to respect the master..."

"That may not be the case..." County Magistrate Zhang put down the teacup and said: "Maybe after so long, he has become wild and bold, and has forgotten how he got to this point today..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a yamen runner ran in panic and shouted: "Master, it's bad, Lin Er is here!"
