Because of the existence of this contract, there is a little more trust between the wealthy families, and the strength is more cohesive.

It is also today's Huimeng that has achieved the "Business Alliance" that will be rich and rival the country in the future, and will be flocked to by countless businessmen and wealthy families.

Situ was also sentenced because of this one merit.

He was revered as the "God of Contract" by later generations.

Whenever a person or family member wants to make a contract, he will swear an oath in his name.

Situ Xing could never have imagined that his seemingly unintentional move today would actually create a financial kingdom in the future, and even ignite the divine fire and collect countless beliefs.

But now, it's just a very weak, embryonic business alliance that has just taken shape.

It is far from reaching the point where it can easily set off a financial tsunami and affect the country's political situation in later generations, like the existence of a giant Mac.

Situ Xing's purpose today is very simple, that is, to use Huairou means to reshuffle the wealthy family in Zhibei County.

Eliminate hostile or disobedient objects.

In order to achieve his goal of completely controlling Zhibei County.

He also has his considerations for cultivating the wealthy forces in Zhibei County headed by the Hu family, the Bai family, and the Lu family, and being his spokesperson.

In addition to the fact that the Hu family, the Bai family, and the Lu family are the most powerful in Zhibei County.

It is also because of the discord between the three forces, which restrain each other and balance each other, forming a three-legged trend.

This is also deliberately done by Situ Xing.

The three forces are almost the same, and they are full of contradictions, and they will definitely not form a monopoly.

It will not threaten the prison sentence.

Rather, every family will have a request from Him ...

Situ didn't notice it, and unconsciously, his mentality also changed subtly.

The momentum of the whole person has converged a lot, and it is no longer as sharp as before. There is also a little less rigidity and more tenderness in the means of dealing with the world.

There is also the unique "imperial heart technique" of the superior, the way of balance.

This is what status influences mentality, and mentality affects behavior.

。。。

Wow!

Wow!

Wow!

The weather in June, although not as hot as in May, is still a little hot.

The air is even more dull, making people feel indescribably irritable and depressed.

That's why

Whether you are visiting relatives or friends, or merchants, you like to avoid the noon sun when it is at its hottest, and take advantage of the morning and evening, when the sun has just risen, and in the evening when the sun is about to set.

A few wealthy merchants, dressed in their coats, sat on the ox carts, fanned the wind with their hands, and shouted loudly urging their men to hurry as soon as possible while the weather was slightly cool, so as not to miss the hour and delay the camping.

But at this moment, there was a sudden sound of rapid armor rubbing in their ears.

Everyone subconsciously turned their heads, and a team of neatly dressed and majestic soldiers, under the leadership of the captain and the team, surged forward like a tide.

"The soldiers of Zhibei County?"

"What's going on?"

"Could it be that Montenegro is not quiet, and the government soldiers come out to suppress bandits?"

The merchant also had some knowledge, and when he saw the flag fluttering in the wind, he instantly knew the identity of the government soldier, and he thought of it with some surprise.

"Quick!"

"Speed up!"

"Don't delay camping!"

Li Ling, who was wearing red armor and carrying a tall bow behind his back, sat on a tall horse, looked at the sun that was about to set, and said a little anxiously.

"No!"

"No!"

The soldier also knew the dangers of camping in the wilderness, so he nodded without hesitation.

The speed of the march has also increased a lot.

"Your Excellency!"

"It's dusk, but it's still hot!"

"You go to the machine car and rest for a while, and in half an hour, the army will be at the camp. ”

Fan Gou'er looked at Situ Xing, who was standing on a bronze chariot with a long knife at his waist and a straight body, like a javelin, and hurriedly stepped forward and whispered to admonish.

"No!"

"The soldiers can insist, and the officers can naturally insist!"

Situ Xing turned his head to look at Fan Gou'er and shook his head without any hesitation. Suddenly, Situ Xing's eyes flickered a few times, as if he had thought of something, and he lowered his voice and whispered:

"You go to the machine car!"

"Ask Miss Lu if she needs anything... ”

"Although she has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, she is a woman after all. ”

"No!"

Although Fan Gou'er had doubts in his heart, he didn't know why Situ Xing would take the daughter of the Lu family on the expedition.

You must know that it is very taboo to have female dependents in the barracks.

Many soldiers believed that this would lead to a defeat and was a bad omen.

Of course, it's more of an inconvenience.

After all, there is a difference between men and women.

But Situ is the chief official, and he is the main general.

No one dared to disobey his orders, and even if the generals were a little reluctant in their hearts, they could only carry her on the road with them.

Fortunately, Lu Pheasant is not the kind of weak woman, and she didn't cause any trouble to everyone along the way.

Slowly, everyone became less repulsive to her.

On the contrary, it feels interesting, after all, the eldest lady of the Lu family is not only noble and beautiful, but also a woman who does not let her eyebrows go.

With her presence, the originally boring and rapid march was not so boring.

Thinking of this, Fan Gou'er turned the horse's head without any hesitation, leaning next to Situ Xing's huge machine car, with a smile on his face and a slight open mouth, as if he had communicated with the people inside for a while.

That's when he left.

After a while, a sergeant carried a few buckets of water, sent them to the machine car, and handed them to Lu Pheasant's personal maid.

"Drive!"

"Drive!"

"Drive!"

With the shouts of the soldiers, the neighing of the horses, the sound of the wheels of the cars crushing the ground, and the sound of the soles of the soldiers stepping on the ground were mixed together.

forming a special frequency.

The merchant who was in the middle of the road, was taken by this momentum, and subconsciously drove the ox cart to the side of the road, got out of the way, and asked the soldiers to go first.

"Oh my god!"

"Uniform, high-spirited, what a strong army!"

"I didn't expect that there would be such a strong army in Zhibei County!"

The slightly chubby merchant stood on top of the ox cart, looked at the back of the army in the distance, and said in a whisper.

"Shopkeeper!"

"Shopkeeper!"

"What do we do now?"

"Because of the march, I'm afraid we won't be able to stay in time for dark!"

The man looked at the sky that had gradually darkened, and the dark woods around him, and a trace of fear suddenly appeared on his face.

Montenegro is wild, but it is not a densely populated northern county, nor is it a county town garrisoned by soldiers.

This is a dangerous place infested with wild beasts and monsters.

Especially at night, it is even more dangerous, and it is for this reason that people who come and go to trade have a very accurate grasp of their itinerary.

Traveling during the day, arriving at the camp at night and camping in a safe location.

"yes!"

"Shopkeeper!"

"According to the current situation, I will definitely not be able to get to the next camp!"

"Why don't we go back the way we came!"

"Before it's completely dark, let's go back to the last camp!"

The other guys looked at the sky and agreed.

"yes!"

"Shopkeeper!"

"In the wild region of Montenegro, safety comes first!"

"Safety first!"

"Return!"

"Return!"

"Just know how to return!"

"If we delay time, our goods will all rot in our own hands!"

"When that time comes, you, you, you, you'll have to drink the northwest wind!"

The shopkeeper looked at the work with fear and hesitation in his eyes, and a trace of anger couldn't help but rise on his face, and he pointed at the noses of several people with his thick fingers, and said angrily.

"The shopkeeper, it's not the little ones who are lazy, it's too dangerous to trade in the dark!"

"At night, there are monsters all around... We are again a small caravan with no samurai to protect. ”

One of them, who seemed to be the head of the man, looked at the shopkeeper with an ugly face, and said with a face full of grievances.

"Humph!"

"Everyone hurry up, don't be left behind, we're behind that army!"

"With their protection, what monsters are you afraid of?"

The shopkeeper naturally understood the guys' worries, but he still said with confidence.

"It's naturally good to follow the military master!"

"But will they protect us?"

The guy asked, skeptically.

"Definitely!"

"That's the government soldier of Zhibei County, the county lord of Zhibei County, Lord Situ, who is famous for his benevolence and righteousness, and loves the people like a son!"

"The army he led must be a division of benevolence and righteousness!"

"If we do encounter something, he will definitely not sit idly by!"

Compared with the worries of the guys, the shopkeeper said that he was full of confidence, but in fact, he did not have much confidence in his heart.

They hung behind the soldiers like tails, and with the help of the faint light, they kept moving forward.

The night is getting darker and darker, and the sky is getting a little chilly.

In the surrounding woods, there were many strange noises.

It seems that there are a lot of unknowns and dangers hidden inside.

The hearts of the businessmen and the guys slowly sank.

Beast!

Monsters!

Obviously easy to see!

Their caravans have been targeted by hungry monsters or wild beasts.

"Shopkeeper!"

"What should we do now?"

The young man listened to the strange noise around him, his whole body couldn't help but tremble, and he asked with some fear.

"Don't be afraid!"

"Speed up!"

"The front is the military, these monsters will not dare to be presumptuous... ”

The shopkeeper looked at the looming light around him, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, suppressed his fear, and said with a determined face.

。。。

"What's going on next?"

"Why do you keep hanging behind the army?"

"It's not the Zhang family's eyeliner, right?"

Fan Gou'er, who was wearing heavy armor and commanded the Xuanwu Battalion, looked at the convoy hanging behind the army and asked in some surprise.

"Return to the general!"

"It's a small caravan!"

"I'm afraid of being attacked by wild beasts and demon beasts in the middle of the night, so I hang far behind the army!"

"However, looking at the way they look now, they seem to be in trouble!"

The soldier looked up at the faint light of the moon and said with a smile.

"I see... ”

Fan Gou'er looked at it carefully for a while, and it was indeed as the soldier said, this caravan was in big trouble, judging by the frequency of the shaking of the woods, and the looming ghostly light.

They must have encountered a pack of blue wolves!

Without the protection of the military, they would surely become a pile of dry bones on the side of the road.

Fortunately, the people of the caravan were not stupid, and they knew that they were close to the army, which was angry because of the perennial war, and had a strong deterrent effect on the beasts.

But even then, sooner or later, something will happen to business travelers.

Thinking of this, Fan Gou'er said without any hesitation:

"You guys are waiting here, I'll go and ask your lord!"

"No!"

"No!"

Seeing that Fan Gou'er said solemnly, the soldier did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly promised loudly.
