Chapter 118 Angry Eight Great Families
"Take your silver notes and find a place to enter the pass. The compassion of my boss not only saved your lives, but also bought your goods at a high price. You can leave." The sudden and loud sentence said.
"Just leave like this?" Obviously, the business travelers did not expect that the bandits in front of them were so kind. Not only did they not kill themselves, they also bought their goods at a high price. This was probably said to be something that no one believed, but that's the truth.
"Why haven't you left yet?" Ju Chu glared at her eyes, and her murderous aura enveloped everyone, scaring the vendors all ran away in a panic. How dare they stop here?
"As for you, you have already killed your shopkeepers. If this matter is spread, let alone we will kill you, even the Fan family and the eight major families will kill you." Ju Tu said in a gloomy manner: "Now there are only two roads in your place, one road, telling the Fan family what happened here, and there is another road, which is to get a little injured and flee back to Zhangjiakou, which means that you encountered a bandit, and the old shopkeeper died in battle. You may be able to escape. But, hehe, if one day, when we attack Zhangjiakou, you will set fire in the city and pick us up. When we break through Zhangjiakou, each of you will get a reward of 1,000 taels of silver."
"Ah!" The remaining servants of the Fan family and vendors were shocked. Unexpectedly, Li Xin and others left him for such a thing. Everyone hesitated for a while.
"You can only have some people leaving here, and there will be another person who will follow some of our troops to escort these things to our old camp." After Ju Chu received the instructions from Li Xin, he said loudly: "Some people will stay in the old camp. Only when we conquer Zhangjiakou can we go back to reunite with our family. Don't worry, you will definitely not be much worse than your family in our old camp. Now you can divide up. Are you going to go back after being injured? Or are you going to stay with us!"
"I'm willing to go back." A gloomy servant said without thinking.
"I do, too." Two or three people shouted in an instant.
"Kill them." Ju Chu was about to speak, and suddenly Li Xin's cold voice came. As soon as he finished speaking, several sharp arrows flew out and shot the four people into hedgehogs. He was dead and could not die any more.
"Hmph, I really thought I didn't know that I was hiding here." Li Xin rode forward and walked to the people's side. When he used the tip of the knife to cut the clothes of several people, he saw a stack of papers inside. He suddenly didn't dare to be negligent, so he jumped off the horse and took out all the papers and handed them to Li Xin.
"Tongguan defense map, Guanzhong military map, Luoyang food and grass reserves." Li Xin flipped through these papers, and a hint of coldness appeared on the corner of his mouth. This is the result of the Eight Great Masters during this period. They want to send these information to Jiannu, which may be useless in a short time, but in the future, when Jiannu goes south to herd the Horses and Herding Central Plains, he will definitely be able to use it.
"These guys deserve to die." Ju Tu kicked the guys fiercely, and then asked curiously: "Master, how do you know that these guys still have these things on them?"
"Hmph, we mean to hurt them, but we didn't say where the injury was. Maybe they were cut off their arm, chopped their fingers, or dug their eyes, and the degree of injury was different. Anyone, when encountering this situation, would first consider it. It was just like them." Li Xin pointed to the person on the other side, then pointed at the four people on the ground, and sneered: "Only they, without thinking, said that they would rather be injured. Obviously, no matter where these guys were injured, they were going back, which made me wonder. Sure enough, this is the real big fish. When these people go back, they will definitely tell the people of the Fan family. Not only will our plan not be implemented, but even those business travelers who escape will be in trouble afterwards."
"The wisdom of the master." Not only was he surprised, the remaining eight masters also showed admiration on their faces.
"Jutu, tell them what to say when they go back? Stop them from going back and let it go. Humph, we have to go to the next place. There are more than one business trip in the Eight Great Masters!" Li Xin clamped his legs on the horse and went lazily towards the distance. Behind him, Jutu was sweeping the tail.
Three days later, Li Xin led his troops to kill the Tian family business travelers among the Eight Great Masters again. For a time, his troops increased again, and there were gradually more legends about Li Xin on the grassland, saying that there was a team of horse bandits on the grassland, wearing a silver wolf mask and holding a big knife, and brutal and ferocious. More importantly, this horse bandit specifically caused trouble for the Eight Great Masters. As long as it was the Eight Great Masters' business travelers, he would come forward to rob them. There was even a small tribe. In order to curry favor with the Eight Great Masters, the other party was slaughtered cleanly by the other party with thunder. For a moment, the business travelers on the grassland saw the big flag of evil wolf, and the business travelers entering the grassland were also in a panic.
The business travelers in Zhangjiakou are also talking about this matter. Many people dare not go out of seclusion at this time. Of course, they also have bold ones, but they dare not lean under the banner of the Eight Great Masters, for fear that the Eight Great Masters would cause unhappiness and that they would lose both money and money. The Zhangjiakou Horse Market, which was extremely lively in the past, will also have a lot of business bleak due to Li Xin. The Eight Great Masters led by the Fan Family suffered heavy losses. More importantly, the Eight Great Masters' reputation plummeted, which is the most important thing.
When the Eight Great Family joined forces to eliminate a business trip and only dozens of people fled back, the Eight Great Family finally couldn't sit still. Fan Yongdou finally summoned the eight great masters and minds in the Fan family compound to discuss the matter. Wang Dengku, Jin Liangyu, Wang Dayu, Liang Jiabin, Tian Shenglan, Zhai Tang, Huang Yunfa and other eight great officials gathered together.
"It was just a small thing, but I didn't expect it to have developed to this point now. It's not my husband's." Fan Yongdou's face was calm, but there was a smile on his face.
"I don't know what the head of the Fan family said was Li Xin?" Wang Dengku frowned and said disdainfully: "But is it necessary for a teenage child to pay so much attention? Didn't you say that there? Li Xin doesn't need us to deal with it at all. Neither there nor the court will let Li Xin go." Everyone knew that the side Wang Dengku's words meant Jiannu.
"The East side was defeated by Li Xin this time, and endless changes will occur from now on." Fan Yongdou sighed.
"Isn't this a good thing? They lose even worse, so they will buy more things from us." Wang Dayu laughed haha, his eyes swam, but he seemed extremely cunning.
"Yes, with our help over the years, Dongbian didn't know how much advantage it had taken. Although we also got a lot of things from them, relatively speaking, they were seeking a country, and we were just a merchant, and the things we got were far less than the other party's." Although Tian Shenglan was named a woman, she was a strong man with a fleshy face. If it weren't for his gloomy gaze that flashed from time to time in his narrow eyes, people would have thought that Tian Shenglan was just a butcher.
"Li Xin's affairs are secondary. Now there is a horse bandit rising on the grassland. There are about a thousand people, very brave. The leader, wearing a silver wolf mask on his face and holding a big knife in his hand. I don't know where it came out, and he specifically went against our eight families." Fan Yongdou shook his head and said, "In less than ten days, I have lost more than 100,000 taels of silver. I believe you have also lost a lot!" Everyone did not speak when they heard this, but their faces were very gloomy. Obviously, Fan Yongdou's words resonated with everyone. This kind of loss was not only Fan Yongdou, and the rest of them would be in trouble afterwards.
"For us, more than 100,000 taels of silver are just a drop in the bull market, but now this group of bandits appears outside the horse market. With this bandit on the grassland, our goods can go to the grassland." Huang Yunfa said coldly: "The merchants gathered in Zhangjiakou have shaken their confidence in ours. If this continues for a long time, it will be extremely unfavorable."
"What do you say about the General's Mansion?" Zhai Tang said coldly: "With so much money we have every year, don't you want to work at this time?"
"Are you talking about the General's Mansion?" Fan Yong said with a hint of disdain at the corner of his mouth: "Depending on those people, I'm afraid these people will run away as soon as they meet thieves. My servants are more elite than these people."
"Then it's the old way, let the beards deal with it!" Wang Dengku said lightly: "I believe that this sudden horse bandit has touched the interests of the beards on the grassland. It's time to use these guys to deal with the horse bandits. At worst, you can just pay some more money."
"Where did this horse bandit come from? I felt a vague feeling of uneasiness in my heart. This horse bandit came very suddenly." Fan Yongdou said softly.
"So what? No matter how powerful the other party is, he can't do anything to us?" Zhai Tang said disdainfully: "Where are we now? We are in Zhangjiakou. More than ten miles away from this place is Xuanfu. More than 100,000 elite soldiers are nearby. As long as someone comes to invade, that's just one word, death. Then Lin Danhan is so powerful! This person has been lying on the grassland for so many years, but seeing us spending money and wine in Zhangjiakou, here is full of gold and silver mountains, but what can we do? We are still blocked from Xuanfu."
"Yes." Everyone nodded, and a hint of pride appeared on their faces. It was a blessing to choose Zhangjiakou.
"Okay, since you all agree to mobilize those people, let those people set out! One hundred thousand taels, one hundred thousand taels per family, how about it?" Fan Yongdou finally made the decision.
