Chapter 610: What Purpose

The people who discussed the matter immediately shut up, talking about the affairs of the court was not a joke, they weighed a few heads and it was not enough to cut off.

This is how the news spread, and some people said that the head of the Xiao family was in a hurry, and there was even more exciting news that the Xiao family was going to be an enemy of Youzhou.

All kinds of news is spreading, and the cement workshop of the Xiao family has stopped working, and all the personnel have gone home and have been dismissed without paying more.

This incident can already prove that Youzhou has put pressure on the Xiao family, and it is almost impossible to resist the pressure and intends to pay all the properties of the Xiao family.

The situation of the Xiao family is really bad, winter is the off-season for business, and a lot of shops were closed in a few days, although they are not the Xiao family in name, but in fact they all know, but they just don't explain.

"My lord, your plan has worked, now the Xiao family has become a mess, the subordinates have verified the accuracy of the information, even the head of the Xiao family has not been out of the door of the back house for many days, Zhang Zhongjian has been to the Xiao family several times and is helping to raise money, but 50,000 yuan is not something they can come up with."

"Well, you're doing a good job, keep an eye on any news to report in time."

In a courtyard on the outskirts of Jiangling, Li Mi explained the matter to his subordinates, and the matter against the Li family's salt mine was his doing, and it was naturally the emperor standing behind him.

Staring at the titular royal agent was beyond the spy's authority, but his husband had to arrange for him to do the same.

After more than a year of hard work, Li Mi has already sat in a very high position, and it can be said that at least one-tenth of the royal agents of the entire Sui State must obey his arrangement.

The purpose of this plan is to think that maybe the production process of salt has failed, so the second set of plans has been thought of one after another, and the information deliberately prompted is deliberately left by the official.

He didn't know that Hua Chen was a secret agent, but he knew that Hua Chen was related to Li De, and he had already grasped the information of the Cheng'an Inn in Taiyuan Mansion, and he deliberately arranged people in the Chengnan Inn in Chang'an just in case.

Originally, he planned to kill two birds with one stone, attacking the Li family's salt mine, or after the formula, he deliberately left clues in the restaurant, thinking of using the knife of Youzhou to get rid of the Xiao family.

Judging from the current situation, the Xiao family has no strength to match it at all, why they chose to get rid of the Xiao family, because it was mentioned in their intelligence that the Xiao family secretly cultivated power, and the guys in the business industry were all Deadpools raised by the Xiao family, with more than 600 people.

If the workers of the cement workshop are added, if the Xiao family turns the tables, it will be able to pull up at least no less than 3,000 soldiers and horses, and if Zhang Zhongjian is counted, it may not be too much to have 20,000 soldiers and horses.

The Zhang family is the richest man in the south, and even in the entire Sui country, it is quite rich, if there is no Li De and no Li family, then the Zhang family is definitely the richest man deservedly.

If you sell your property and pull up the team, you can feed at least 50,000 soldiers and horses, you must know that these 50,000 soldiers and horses can reach the dark kind that can fight all year round.

Zhang Zhongjian is also the target they want to eradicate, but the Zhang family's forces are very unfavorable to their actions in the south, at least they can't fight the south with Youzhou soldiers and horses.

It's not that the vanguard isn't strong, it's that no one does.

According to common sense, it is impossible for the vanguard to use troops internally, and once they do so, it is equivalent to touching the emperor's scales, and it is very likely that a civil war will break out.

The strength of the Xiao family is not strong and it is a hidden danger, and the most important thing is to have the opportunity to take advantage of it.

Li Mi began to calculate out of these considerations, waiting is always the loneliest behavior, and the spies sent were verifying the situation between the two parties, and the Xiao family had done it Now that Li De already knows the situation and has begun to do something against the Xiao family.

The information he has is much more reliable than the rumors, and there is a lot more news, and the merchants in Youzhou have begun to act with the aim of thinking that economic pressure is aimed at the Xiao family.

The Xiao family's purchase channels and the products of the workshop were targeted in a short period of time, things could not be sold, and the products of the workshop had no sales channels, so production was consuming financial resources, and finally the Xiao family closed most of the industries.

The facts are in front of him, but Li Mi ignored the economic pressure of Youzhou, and did not use Youzhou soldiers and horses to settle accounts, such pressure was far from enough in his opinion.

What he wants is for Youzhou to send troops to fight, and now it seems that the Xiao family is not worthy of being an enemy with him, since this is the case, it is better to help him.

Li Mi's new plan came up at this moment.

A few days later, the Xiao family made a big move, selling the store and preparing to run away.

Li Mi's spies found out and immediately came back to report.

"Xiao Miao, you really can't hold your breath." Li Mi muttered.

It was only after the Xiao family's convoy quietly left the city that Li Mi determined that Xiao Mo was transferring property, and in this case, if he didn't stand up, he might miss the opportunity.

Li Mi came to Xiao's house and was welcomed into the living room.

"Wait, you'll go tell the master."

Li Mi's visit was as the head of the Li family, and the two families were not much anxious, but it also happened that the two families of the ancestors really had some origins, at least they had communication with their ancestors, after all, they were both big families with a reputation.

"Ahem, ahem!" Xiao Miao's improvement was very bad, and he knew that he was sick at a glance.

Li Mi had been carefully observing and had not seen anything unusual.

"The head of the Li family doesn't know what the purpose of the visit is?" The head of the Xiao family asked.

"Oh, in the early years, I heard that you and I had a lot of connections, and now I heard that the Xiao family is in trouble, so I happened to come over to visit in Jiangling to see if there is anyone who can help." Li Midao.

"The head of the Li family is polite, I will bear the debts of the Xiao family with perseverance, so I won't drag you down, if you don't have any Changhua to borrow money, you will receive it." Xiao Milling.

It is human nature to be rejected, after all, there are a lot of debts, and even several families may not be able to come up with so much money when they join forces.

Li Mi's spies have already checked that the Youzhou City Lord's Mansion is indeed collecting debts from the Xiao family, and 500,000 yuan is the Xiao family's violation of Youzhou cement.

Nominally, the Xiao family is stealing the formula of cement and then maybe making huge profits, this kind of behavior is much more serious in the sphere of influence in Youzhou than stealing, and the personal formula can be protected in Youzhou.

The current situation is to use Youzhou's decree to require the Xiao family in Jiangling to abide by it, so that there are many things involved, and the contradiction between Youzhou and Sui State arises in this way.

Li Mi's appearance is to intensify the contradictions.

Now Xiao Mo doesn't appreciate it, which makes him feel a little passive.

"Master Xiao, my Li family may not be as powerful as other families, but there is still some money, and 100,000 yuan can still be taken out."

As soon as Li Mi said this, Xiao Mi's eyes lit up, this is a normal reaction, anyone will be surprised, being able to take out 100,000 yuan to help is absolutely weird.

"What you said is true, Master Li, you can really come up with 100,000 yuan, what are the conditions?"

Xiao Miao's excitement was not pretended, he was really curious about what the purpose of this Li Mi was.
