This time, Cao Yi and the others came back, and they did not notify Jiang Ning in advance, but the date when Liu Defa's people would come over to receive the liquor was set. So when Cao Yi and the others arrived at the dock, only Wei Chi Hongkuang from Taibai Villa was present.

He led the Taibai secret guard to ensure the smooth delivery of the goods with Liu Defa's people, responsible for the safety of the way from Taibai Villa to the wharf, and when he met with Liu Defa's people, one side of the two sides inspected the money, one side inspected the goods, and after the two sides signed each other for inspection, he could go back.

Of course, on the way back, it is necessary to ensure the safety of these hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, and this round trip requires dozens of carriages.

However, Cao Yi gave a hint in advance, don't let them salute in front of so many people.

"Childe! You're back! Yu Chi Hongkuang said excitedly.

"Hehe, Yangzhou is now on the right track, so I'll come back, how about the Drunken Immortal Building, Taibai Villa, and Ziji Mountain?" Cao Yi took Wei Chi Hongkuang to the side, otherwise so many people crowded in the middle of the road would block the road to pedestrians at the dock.

Although there are so many of them standing, and all of them are so strong, they will not attract public anger and criticism, but they will eventually leave a bad impression in the hearts of others. Yu Chi Hongkuang followed Cao Yi to the dock and kicked him, and the remaining Taibai secret guards took advantage of the situation to form an encirclement outside, facing Cao Yi one by one, staring at the people who came and went.

Cao Yi hadn't seen these secret guards who hadn't graduated from the Taibai secret camp for more than a month, and found that they all had an iron-blooded temperament, obviously they had practiced a lot in the past month.

"Everything is normal in the Drunken Immortal Building, the attacking girl and the musk moon girl manage the Drunken Immortal Building and the Cao Mansion very well, everyone praises it, and they are all very convinced, that is, recently, when I occasionally went to the Drunken Immortal Building to transport wine and silver back and forth, I found that both of them were emaciated and emaciated......

"Hmm!" The expression on Cao Yi's face changed slightly, then returned to normal, and continued to ask, "What about Taibai Villa?" ”

"At present, Taibai Mountain Villa is managed by me, Baiqiu and Bu Zhengqing, and everything is developing in a good direction, and there are currently only seven killings, broken army and Tianfu three departments, and there are already 1,500 people!"

"What!? Now there are five hundred people at every step? Cao Yi asked in surprise.

Wei Chi Hongkuang nodded: "Yes, after the military division came back from Yangzhou, he has been buying innocent young men in Taiping Prefecture and nearby state capitals in the past few days, so now each department has reached five hundred people, and the Lian Zhen Department has reached one thousand people, and the Taibai secret guard has the smallest number of people, only three hundred people......"

"In this way, our Taibai Secret Camp, in addition to those who have graduated, counting the five departments and the Taibai Secret Guard, there are more than 3,300 people in total?" Cao Yi asked in surprise.

"Well, yes, because the Taibai Secret Guards are all in Ziji Mountain, there are Yun Commander, Brother Gongye, and Kang Kui, Zhang Qian and others over there. There are now 1,800 people over there, and 1,500 people in Taibai Villa. Wei Chi Hongkuang replied respectfully.

"In this case, the number of people on both sides is just right......," Cao Yi said to himself.

"What? Childe, you also brought back 300 people this time? "Wei Chi Hongkuang is also a flexible person, and he guessed it as soon as he heard Cao Yi's words.

"Well, but these three hundred people are not our Taibai Secret Guards, but the Cao Gang, we will train them and help them improve their combat strength, so that they will have a better chance of winning back the Cao Gang when the time comes." Cao Yi nodded, and his heart was still in the specific arrangements of the three hundred people in the city.

Yu Chi Hongkuang heard Cao Yi's words, and looked like he wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't help but say it, because he saw the people that Gongzi said, and walked down from the merchant ship that Liu De sent to receive the wine, and saw at a glance that there were more than two hundred, which should be the people Gongzi said.

"Okay, I'll let them go back to the boat first, you and Liu Defa's people will quickly hand over and check it, and lead the silver two back to the villa first, and then come over and take these people back to Taibai Villa!"

"Then ...... son," Wei Chi Hongkuang asked hesitantly.

"Don't worry, it will take time for you to count the silver taels and check the wine from the other party, and your carriage transporting the wine should have been unloaded."

"Well, it's all empty......"

"In that case, you can send someone to send the red-sleeved women back to Cao's Mansion first, and then return after sending them......

"What about Childe?"

"I'll stay at the dock first, and after I'm done, I'll go to Taibai Villa with you, it's a little uneasy not to see there, you go and hand over to Liu Defa's people."

"Then I'll leave ten secret guards to protect Gongzi......" Yu Chi Hongkuang said tentatively.

"No, I also brought back fifty secret guards from Yangzhou! They are all on the boat now, and I'm afraid that too many people will come out at once, too high-profile! Cao Yi shook his head and refused. Wave

"No wonder!" Yu Chi Hongkuang showed a look of sudden realization, and he said why he hadn't seen Deputy Commander Liu and the other secret guards all this time.

"Okay, I'll arrange a clean carriage to send Miss Redsleeves and them back first." Yu Chi Hongkuang said.

Then Cao Yi returned to the merchant ship and explained the next arrangements to Red Sleeves, Yu Youwei and others.

"Childe, then you ......" Red Sleeves was very smart, and as soon as he heard Cao Yi's words, he knew that he must have other arrangements, so he asked at the moment.

"I will first arrange for the shepherd to help them go to Taibai Villa, after all, more than 300 of them came to Jiangning with me, and they must always do their best to be the landlord." Cao Yi said with a smile.

"That'...... Childe, will you come back in the evening? Yu Youwei on the side frowned and asked.

"Uh...... It shouldn't be, I've been away from Taibai Villa for more than a month, and I have to arrange the next things, tomorrow, I should be back at noon tomorrow, and I'll go with you to meet Lu Lao and them in the afternoon, and the letter from my senior brother is on your side, right? Cao Yi asked a little weakly.

Yu Youwei didn't speak at first, just nodded, which was an answer to Cao Yi's later question. Then she suddenly thought of a question, and hurriedly asked: "Childe, go to see my father-in-law and mother tomorrow, I brought gifts for them, Childe, you are ...... here"

"Don't worry, I've brought it too, we'll go together tomorrow afternoon." Cao Yi said with a smile.

Then Red Sleeves, Yu Youwei, Jin'er, and Tanyun got out of the car, and as for their luggage or something, naturally Taibai Secret Guard was responsible for carrying it.

Cao Yi also accompanied them to get off the boat and walk down the dock, at this time there were two carriages parked near the merchant ship, obviously arranged by Wei Chi Hongkuang, one carrying people and the other carrying gifts.

Cao Yi accompanied them to the side of the carriage, watching Tan Yun, Jin'er, Yu Youwei and Red Sleeves enter the carriage, but when the last Red went in reverse order, she suddenly stopped there, lifted the curtain, revealing her more beautiful face as the moon passed, stared at Cao Yi and said, "Childe ......"

"Huh?" Cao Yi looked at Red Sleeves curiously, not knowing what she was going to say.

"Drink less tonight......"

"Uh......" Cao Yi looked at the concerned look in the red sleeves' eyes and nodded.

"Good! I listen to our Red Sleeves! Drink as little as possible! Cao Yi said with a smile at the red sleeves.

A glamorous smile appeared on the face of the red sleeves, which had always been relatively calm, at this time, of course, this kind of smile would only smile sweetest when facing Cao Yi.

In fact, Red Sleeves knew that Cao Yi would definitely drink a lot tonight, and he had not drunk a drop of wine on the boat before, and told Mu Hong and them at that time that he would give them a good pick up after arriving in Jiangning, and he would rest when he was drunk.

With the ingenuity of the red sleeves, he naturally knew that only tonight, when Gongzi arranged Mu Hong and the three hundred people to Taibai Villa, it would be the most suitable time for the official.

And there are not many others over there, that is, there is a lot of wine and food, and Red Sleeves, as the head of the Taibai Chamber of Commerce, naturally knows where the massive amount of money in Taibai Villa is spent every month.

In her opinion, the food standard of the Taibai Secret Camp can definitely be compared to the standard of ordinary wealthy families. The point is that it's not a few dozens, but hundreds of people. This has already formed a quantitative change and caused a qualitative change. Therefore, the daily food purchase cost of Taibai Villa is an astonishing figure.

Although Red Sleeves has not handled the accounts of Drunken Immortal Mansion and Taibai Villa in Jiangning for a month, they are all jointly managed by Musk Yue and Raider, but Red Sleeves has been in charge for so long before after all, and these data fluctuate in a small range at most, so the total amount Red Sleeves can still guess.

Based on the amount of food she guessed, it was already enough for Taibai Villa to pick up the wind and wash the dust for Mu Hong and the others many times. So tonight, Gongzi will definitely treat Mu Hong and these people well, and he must be drunk again, so Red Sleeves said hello in advance.

And Red Sleeves didn't think that Cao Yi would agree, in fact, she was all out of concern, so she reminded her that she was Cao Yi's personal maid. He knows that the friendship between men sometimes has to rely on wine to deepen and improve, as for why it is like this, she doesn't understand it, and she doesn't want to understand.

But Cao Yi agreed to her request, so Red Sleeves was a little surprised, so a dazzling smile appeared on his face. In fact, she also knew that Childe would definitely drink more today, but as long as he promised Red Sleeves to drink less, then Childe would definitely try his best to drink less.

Although Cao Yi didn't say too much to Red Sleeves, Red Sleeves knew his son, and he had always said nothing to them, as long as he agreed, his son would definitely do his best to achieve it.

After Cao Yi watched Red Sleeves, Yu Youwei and the others leave, he asked Mu Hong to gather all the three hundred people under him to Cao Yi's merchant ship, because at this time on Liu Defa's ship, Wei Chi Hongkuang still had to contact the person in charge sent by Liu Defa this time, and both sides were checking the quantity.
