Zhai Zhe and Xiao Zhiyan followed Zhai Tang back together.

Zhai Tang didn't say much along the way, and walked forward silently alone. After entering the villa, he reached out to greet Zhai and said, "Follow me to study!"

Zhai Zhe followed his brother into the study in the other courtyard. The servant lit the oil lamp and left the door. Zhai Tang leaned on a magistrate chair and signaled Zhai to sit down opposite him, asking, "What do you think about what happened tonight?" Zhai Tang has always been arbitrary, and this is the first time he has talked about affairs with Zhai Zhe.

"I just happened to be the right person." Zhai Zhe smiled casually after sitting down. He knew that his brother never liked him. He was reserved and stern, serious, and unruly, but he acted unruly. After being influenced by later generations, he did not value ethics and was not particular about details. The two had different temperaments.

Zhai Tang leaned on the handle of the chair and lowered his eyes for a moment. Fan Yongdou's attitude towards Zhai Zhe just now and Zhai Zhe's performance made him feel that there must be hidden information. The Fan family had no reason to show that they trusted the Zhai family so much.

Zhai Tang opened his eyes and looked at Zhai Zhe. Seeing that he was still as if nothing had happened, he scolded him: "Don't forget that you are a member of the Zhai family. Every word and action represent the attitude of the Zhai family."

"I know!"

Zhai Tang tapped the table with his index finger for a while and said, "I'm going to set up a caravan in winter."

Zhai Zhe was not surprised that the company had already been preparing, but he didn't know why his brother told him this.

"Where do you go?" he asked casually.

"Go to Liaodong!" Zhai Tang patted the table and said, "I can do it too. Zhangjiakou's future hope is all in Liaodong, I just didn't expect Fan to do it.

Yong Dou is so fast.”

Zhai Zhe reminded: "That road is not safe!" From Zhangjiakou to Shengjing, Liaodong, you must pass through the Duoyan Grassland. When the Chahar tribe was nomadic there, it completely isolated the road between Zhangjiakou and Liaodong. Although most of the Chahar people are moving westward to conquer, there are still left-behind Chahar tribes there. More importantly, the war has caused the horse thieves who were originally active outside Datong in Xuanfu to escape to the mountains on the border between the Duoyan Grassland and Daming.

"Of course, how can a businessman traveling to the frontier be without risks?" Zhai Tang was very calm. The opportunity to rank in the east entrance was right in front of him. Who would not be moved by the ambitious boss in this episode?

"The Xiao Zhiyan, who you recruited into the Zhai family, was once a horse thief on the grassland. I know that you also have familiar people who are working as bandits outside, and the Zhai family has to do their part."

Zhai Zhe smiled bitterly. His brother's connections were not comparable to those of him. He had no secrets in front of his brother, and even Xiao Zhiyan's background was clearly found.

"With the Fan family first, have you negotiated with Fan Dongjia about this?"

"It will be announced tomorrow, but our Zhai family cannot rely entirely on the Fan family."

The future of Zhangjiakou is in Liaodong. Fan Yongdou was the first to take the lead and also opened a window. The Tumotes were defeated in a clear manner. The Chahars were barbaric and poor, and did not understand trade. The Jurchens became stronger and stronger in Liaodong and needed to obtain materials from the Ming Dynasty. After the trade route was opened, the two sides hit it off. Zhai Zhe knew that he could not stop such a general trend, but he wanted to get rid of the current dilemma from it.

"I can try it, but the bandits are all greedy." Zhai Zhe was almost ecstatic, but his attitude was very restrained. In front of the family, he also needed to hang a mask, and people had to bow their heads under the eaves. For him, horse thieves were much more reliable than guards. Horse thieves were all desperate people and had nothing to lose. The guards had small families. One day, no one would really follow him.

"The business name will support you!"

While the two were talking, Hao Yangyou's majestic voice sounded outside: "Boss, Fan Dong's family has ordered people to hand over Ge Feng."

Zhai Tang stood up and said, "You sold a big favor to the Fan family today. Ge Feng has a complicated background. You can go and receive it!"

Zhai Zhe didn't know whether these were his brother's original plan or whether the incident tonight made him change his mind, but at least now he had a chance. Zhai Zhe stood up and said goodbye. In the yard, Ge Feng was still tied up tightly, with four Da Shengkui's guards accompanying him.

"Uncle Hao, brother said, leave Ge Feng to me, you can rest early!" Zhai Zhe greeted Hao Yangyou. It was already late at night. In late autumn, the yard outside was cold.

"Yes, the second young master!"

The second master and the second young master are just one word different, but they reflect his status in the business name.

Zhai Zhe stepped forward and cut off the rope on Ge Feng's body, and said to the people who were escorting him: "You can go back too, so don't worry if Ge Feng handed it to me."

Everyone left separately. Just as Ge Feng was about to speak, Zhai Zhe reached out to stop him and said, "This is not a place to speak, please follow me."

Zhai Zhe led Ge Feng out of the villa and went to the next door of the wing where he lived. He opened the door and lit the oil lamp in the house with a flint. Ge Feng finally couldn't hold it in and said first: "Thank you, Second Master tonight!"

"I just told the truth and didn't help you. I just lived next door. If you need anything, just call me!" Zhai Zhe seemed to have nothing happened.

Ge Feng gritted his teeth and said, "I only recognized Erye today. Erye is a friend. I, Ge Feng, owed Erye a favor. The Lu family is the grasshopper in the autumn after the autumn can't jump for a few days."

"Stay!" Zhai Zhe smiled slightly, turned around and went out, and closed the door. The more he was so kind to such a person, the more he looked down upon him. If you don't say anything, the better the effect.

Zhangjiakou was no longer as calm as before. On the wide streets, lights were shining from time to time, and the alarmed dog barking came one after another. This was the busiest night for the owners of major businesses in many years. The lanterns of the Fan family swayed from Jidong to Jixi, and remained unsheathed all night.

There are not many hours left before the day of the Ming Dynasty, and Zhai Zheyi leaned against the bed. The Liaodong Jurchen was the most powerful enemy of the Ming Dynasty in the future, but he had to stand now

1000

5728 On the side of Fan Yongdou, before he has no ability to change the situation, he can only strengthen himself by standing on the side of the winner. Compared with the complex interpersonal relationships in the mainland of the Ming Dynasty, the market town of Zhangjiakou is very simple, and the code of conduct here is money. There will be no sudden yamen runners sealing the shops, nor will the officials impose heavy taxes. As long as you can earn money, these businesses do not care whether they are doing business with Mongolia or Jurchens. Here he must follow the rules here.

Lying on the bed, Zhai Zhe remembered a saying from a later generation that when capital has more than three times the profit, beheading cannot be stopped.

When the rooster crowed for the fifth time, when the first whitening appeared in the east, Zhai Zhe, who had been sleepless all night, climbed out of the door and washed up briefly. Ge Feng next door slept calmly, and the snoring sound was shocking. He could not imagine how strong the confidence Fan Yongdou gave him.

All shops open normally, almost one morning. Last night's events were like a gust of wind, and almost everyone knew about them. While the guys were talking, they were worried about their own destiny. Two hours later, the Shanxi Business Guild will be held at the Zuibaxian Teahouse in the middle of the market town. The storm is about to come and the wind is filling the building.

Zhai Zhe and Xiao Zhiyan used up their breakfast early, ordered the servant to make two cups of tea, and waited quietly at home for news. This was a rally related to the situation in Zhangjiakou.

"Brother Xiao, let's make a bet. Do you think the injured guard of the Lu family died last night?" Zhai Zhe was very bored and asked Xiao Zhiyan.

"Die? Not dead!" Xiao Zhiyan seemed to have a hard time making a decision, and finally shook his head and said, "I would rather believe that he is not dead."

"I guess he must be dead!" Zhai Zhe's voice was loud, which made Ge Feng in the room hear clearly, and he couldn't help but push the door and walk out.

Ge Feng looked a little nervous and said, "Lu Fuyou is not so shameless, right?" He believed that Fan Yongdou would not abandon him casually, but for so many years in the collection, he understood the nature of those people better.

"Brother Ge, be careful, the Fan Dong family will not let you get wronged." Zhai Zhe asked Ge Feng to sit beside him. The three of them were drinking tea while talking about anecdotes on the grassland.

Until the sun is at midnight, a little news\u4e

5f did not come out, Ge Feng was restless and absent-minded.

There is a roadside teahouse not far from Zui Baxian Tower, where two grassland people with fur hats are also drinking tea and chatting. The man on the left is thin and fair-looking, looking like a Han scholar. The man on the right is strong, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a creepy scar on his right face.

"Master Beile, it seems that our new friend is in some trouble!" said the scar man lowering his business.

"If he can't even solve this problem, I will be in vain." The person who is known as the scholar of Baylor replied, "After these few days, don't you understand this market town? As long as you have money to make money, some people are willing to cooperate with us."

"Uh Ruzhuo, I can't give you too many people, but you must control the horse thieves in Duoyan Grassland. According to the Khan's plan, these merchants in Zhangjiakou will become one of the most important reliances of my Dajin. If you are familiar with the grassland, don't lose my face with the red flag."

"tie!"

The scar man's forehead was so excited that he replied a little loudly.

The scholarly-like Beile glared at him and said, "Control these Han merchants is the basis for the great Jin Dynasty to dominate the grassland! If you have more things to do, you should not threaten and bully him at will."
