Chapter 101: Ransom
Regarding Fude Commercial Bank, even Zhang Yue has heard of it. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
It is rumored that the Fude Commercial Bank is one of the largest commercial houses in the 39 northern states of the Da Geng Dynasty, and its sphere of influence spans the 39 northern states, and every county and even every county in the northern region has a commercial branch office, which is a veritable giant in the business world.
The Fu Trading Company located in Anchang County is just an inconspicuous branch of the Fu Trading Company in Huiling County, Liaozhou. However, it is this branch of the Fude Commercial Bank, but it is also one of the largest commercial houses in Anchang County, controlling at least eighty or ninety percent of the trade in leather goods and yams in Anchang County and its vicinity.
Anchang County.
Zhang Yue took Zhao Wuniang and led a team of Three Kingdoms Killing generals to the Fude Commercial Bank located in the northwest corner of Anchang County. At the gate of the Fude Commercial Bank, which covers an area of several acres, you can see hunters and hawkers who come to trade leather yams from time to time.
In the courtyard, as far as the eye can see, people come and go, horses and animals neigh, bustling and shouting, but it is a scene like a trading market. The smell of yam skin is overflowing, and the sound of bargaining is endless.
Here, it has become the largest mountain goods trading market in Anchang County!
"I'm Zetong Youjiao Zhang Yue, I have come to see the head of your bank, can you introduce me?" Zhang Yue led a group of people into the courtyard of the Fude Commercial Bank, and found a famous Fude Commercial Bank in the noisy crowd.
"Let me tell the principal, and please wait a moment. ”
Hearing Zhang Yue's identity revealed, the waiter of the trading house, who was about twenty years old, was slightly surprised, then hurriedly responded respectfully, and after making a salute, he moved to the backyard.
After a while, the waiter hurriedly walked out again, bowed down and stretched out his hand to lead the way, leading Zhang Yue and his party into the backyard.
In the backyard of Fude Commercial Bank, it is not as noisy as the front yard, but it is a little deserted.
In the entire backyard, on the huge field, I saw wooden cages standing, trapped in some ragged men, women and children, suppressed sobs from time to time, and from time to time, guards with knives and sticks could be seen patrolling back and forth.
The people trapped in the wooden cages were all slaves purchased by the Fude Trading Company from various sources, and they would soon be sold to the south.
Seeing Zhang Yue and his entourage walking in, in the field, an old man who was patrolling the wooden cage in the backyard surrounded by several people, wearing a blue silk suit, greeted him, saluted and said: "It is the main business of this branch below, I don't know what is the important matter for the Lord You to come to the bank?"
"When I came this time, I asked for something. Immediately, Zhang Yue did not hesitate and explained the purpose of this trip to the person who was in charge.
"Oh, you want to redeem people?" Hearing this, the principal was suddenly stunned.
After being stunned for a moment, the principal's face was full of smiles, and he replied with a smile: "No problem! If I had known that this family had something to do with Lord You, what would that debt be, and it would be forgiven." ”
He said to Zhang Yue with a smile as he called a black-bearded and white-faced man beside him and commanded a few words in a solemn voice.
The man hurried away, and after a short time, Zhang Yue saw five or six men, women, and children, and was brought over by the man. It can be seen that before this group of men, women, and children were brought over, they were specially cleaned and sorted out in advance, and the clothes on their bodies were changed into new ones.
"Dad, mother!" Seeing the group of men, women and children, Zhao Wuniang immediately cried and pounced, and a group of people hugged each other with tears in their eyes. There is no doubt that these people are Zhao Wuniang's relatives who were kidnapped by Fude Commercial Bank.
On the side, the principal also smiled and handed over the deed of sale of Zhao Wuniang's family to Zhang Yue.
After taking the deeds, Zhang Yue looked at them slightly, and then destroyed them. Since then, Zhao Wuniang's family has also been freed from slavery and regained their freedom.
Then, Zhang Yue, who achieved the purpose of this trip, did not stay for long, and exchanged pleasantries with the principal for a while, then said goodbye to the principal, and led a group of subordinates and Zhao Wuniang's family to leave.
……
Fude & Co.
After seeing Zhang Yue and his party leave, a black-clothed steward next to the rich chief wanted to speak and stopped, but finally couldn't help asking: "Chief, that Zhang Yue, it's just a tour, with the power of my Fu firm, why should I be afraid of a small tour, why ......?"
"Hmph, do you really think he's just an ordinary tourist?"
The rich chief glanced at the steward, his eyes were deep, and he snorted coldly, "How can you gather such a fierce warrior around you, how can you be an ordinary person?" Originally, I thought that the rumors in the county were exaggerated to Zhang Yue, but when I saw it today, I knew that he was indeed a famous warrior!"
"How can this sub-pattern be accommodated by just one tour?"
"Heng Zhu is just a few worthless contract slaves, it's just a little convenient for that Zhang Yue, why should you offend Zhang Yue for such a trivial matter, and what does it matter if you sell that Zhang Yue to save face!"
……
Dusk, Bienmin Village.
At Zhang Yue's house, smoke rose from the cooking.
After Zhao Wuniang's family was rescued by Zhang Yue, they temporarily lived in Zhang Yue's house because they had nowhere to stay. Although Zhang Yue's small courtyard in Bianmin Village is not big, it also has a few houses, and although these people are a little crowded, it is not a big problem.
The arrival of this family made Zhang Yue's slightly deserted courtyard a lot of noise.
Looking at the warm Zhao Wuniang family, looking at the smile on Zhao Wuniang's face that bloomed again, Zhang Yue felt relieved for the reunion of Zhao Wuniang's family, but he suddenly thought of Gillian.
Wu Niang's family is reunited, Gillian, when will we be able to meet again?
Gillian, where are you doing, are you doing?
Zhang Yue looked up at the sky, and under the afterglow of the setting sun, on the blue sky, the red fire clouds were connected, like a raging flame.
……
Yantian Sect.
Dongzhou, Pingtai Mountain, Luming Garden.
Pingtai Mountain is thousands of feet high, on the top of the mountain, a girl with a goose-yellow skirt, her hand is on the handle of the Pu knife hanging from her waist, standing on the top of the mountain on a big bluestone and looking at the north.
It seems that the girl is only in her teens, and her appearance has not yet grown, but she already has a bit of a national and urban color.
The mountain wind blew, the girl's clothes were flying, her long black hair was soft and waist-length, and she was looking at the north, but her eyes were a little blurry.
It seems that the girl is caught in some kind of inextricable memory.
The girl's name is Xiao Miaoyin, the current young sect master of Yantian Sect, the daughter of the sect master of Yantian Sect, is the real proud daughter of the sky, born with noble blood, just with the blood flowing in the body, she is a character standing in Dongzhou, standing at the peak of the entire Da Geng Dynasty.
Not to mention, the girl's cultivation talent is even more extreme, and after only a few months of cultivation, she has already cultivated the top technique Yantian Hui Pulse in the Yantian Sect to the point of entering the hall, from a mortal who has never cultivated, to a strong horizontal cultivator, and her name has moved Dongzhou.
However, compared with Xiao Miaoyin, a pleasant and slightly unfamiliar name, the girl still prefers to call herself Gillian. Gillian, this name with a bit of rustic taste and vulgarity is the girl's favorite. For example, the identities of each of the two represent.
This girl is the long-missing sister that Zhang Yue is worried about - Gillian.
