Mu Feichen's face once again showed a trace of self-deprecation and a wry smile: "My father was the leader of the Cao Gang before. ”

"Oh? And now? Cao Yi frowned, instantly heard the important information in Mu Feichen's words, and asked.

"Now?" Mu Feichen seemed to be just repeating Cao Yi's words, and seemed to be asking himself again, but with a sad look on his face, he gritted his teeth and said: "Now it is my father's former good brother, and the original deputy gang leader Jing Zhe has become the help of the Cao Gang!" ”

Cao Yi could hear the anger in Mu Feichen's words, especially in the words "once" and "good brother", he seemed to have exhausted his strength to eat milk, word by word, with Cao Yi's guess, the tenth ** is this Jing Zhe usurpation, and the usurpation was successful, so before Liu Baiqing found Mu Feichen in the Yangtze River Basin, after being rescued, Mu Feichen could explain without saying a word.

It must have been Mu Feichen who was chased and killed by Jing Zhe, and in the process of escaping, he had no choice but to jump into the Yangtze River to get a chance to survive, but later he fainted for unknown reasons, and when he fainted and where he fainted is unknown.

Cao Yi had been paying attention to Mu Feichen's expression, and asked while watching, "That's ...... What is your father's man? ”

Mu Feichen showed a painful look on his face and shook his head: "I don't know...... I don't know where he is now, or if he's alive or dead......"

"And where are you now?"

"After my father's disappearance, Jing Ze suddenly set himself up as the leader of the gang, and then expelled some of my father's diehards from the Cao gang or killed them, I was under the desperate protection of my father's diehards, so I escaped from Xicheng along the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal, thinking about going to Bianjing, where there are still some of my father's relations......" Mu Feichen said that he did not continue, his face showed a more painful look, obviously recalling something that made him feel very uncomfortable.

Cao Yi didn't urge him, after all, for Mu Feichen, maybe he had already experienced the tragic incident of his family being ruined and his family power being taken away, and his heart was very painful and struggling at the moment, Cao Yi naturally wouldn't bother him so blindly, but kept waiting for Mu Feichen to recover himself.

After a long while, Mu Feichen continued to speak: "But when I arrived at the Yangtze River, the pursuers sent by Jing Zhe had already arrived, and you also knew that the Cao Gang was very good at water warfare, so they took a small fast boat and boarded a merchant ship to intercept and kill us. ”

"In the river, I also swam for a long time, because I didn't dare to float on the river, I could only hold back in the river for a long time, swim far before I dared to surface, I was exhausted, and the river was windy and waves, a wave knocked me to the bottom, and then I was unconscious and unconscious, I thought I was so dead, but I didn't expect to be ...... by the willow Rescued by Brother Liu. ”

Saying this, Mu Feichen stood up, walked in front of Liu Baiqing, and bowed deeply to Liu Baiqing to show his life-saving grace, "Thank you Brother Liu for saving your life that day, I don't dare to say a word to you these days, just because I have a deep blood feud, and the enemy has been chasing and killing me, so I can only do this to protect myself, and I hope that Brother Liu will forgive." After speaking, he bowed to Liu Baiqing again.

Of course, he is just expressing his gratitude, not that the grace of saving his life is just that, when he can fly again in the future, he will definitely repay Liu Baiqing and Cao Yi, of course, this kind of thing is just thinking in his heart, and he didn't say it, and he didn't plan to say it, as long as he kept it in his heart, he would believe it if he reported it well in the future, and it didn't make sense to say it now.

"Brother Mu doesn't need to be polite, no matter who it is, in that situation at that time, I think I will think about picking it up, in fact, I won't tell you, at that time, we even thought that you were dead, but we just thought that death is great, so we fished you up and buried you on the shore, after all, it was ...... to be buried in the ground."

"Feichen, what are your plans now?" After they exchanged pleasantries for a while, Cao Yi spoke.

Cao Yi's words stopped Mu Feichen again.

After a long time, he said, "I want to go to the capital......

"Are you sure you can use your father's relationship in the capital? I want to remind you that you have to first determine that in the capital, the relationship you are talking about is your father's personal relationship or the relationship between the Cao Gang, this is very important, after all, it is now Jing Zhe's controller Cao Gang, and you still have a relationship in the capital that you can take refuge in, Jing Zhe knows about this matter, if you know, you will be in the past now, you will be in the net now......" Cao Yi opened his mouth to explain.

"This ......" Cao Yi's words made Mu Feichen stupid, before Cao Yi asked, in fact, his innermost thoughts have always been to act at the opportunity and find an opportunity to go to the capital, but because he jumped from the Yangtze River before, he was not entangled at all, if he was penniless, he might not even be able to go out of Yangzhou, let alone go to the capital.

So his plan is to settle down on Cao Yi's side first, whether it is to ask Cao Yi to borrow money, or to do things for a period of time under Cao Yi's hands, and after earning enough to go to the capital, he will go on his own way, as for after going to the capital, those fathers have mentioned to him whether the relationship can be used, whether it is safe or not, whether it can help him, he really doesn't know, and he didn't even let himself think about it carefully.

On the one hand, he felt that the farther away from Xicheng was now, the safer it would be, and the other was that this was his only way out at present, and he didn't even dare to think about what to do if this road failed, this was his only spiritual sustenance now.

However, at present, under Cao Yi's questioning, this utopian-like spiritual sustenance has also been torn open to the beautiful skin, revealing the cruel reality inside.

Mu Feichen finally sighed and said frustratedly: "Actually, even I don't know, I don't know whether what my father once told me is my father's personal relationship or the relationship of the Cao Gang, and I don't know if they will help me if I really go over, or if they are together with Jing Zhe to deal with me, so I am a sheep into the mouth of the tiger and find a way out, I don't know ...... myself."

Cao Yi also sighed, originally thought that this young man would be different, but now when he looks at it, he is also a stunned young man, it seems that he still has not sharpened himself from the blow of his father's life and death, and the family gang was snatched away, but he was in the rivers and lakes, and recognized the cruel reality.

For a while, the whole room fell into silence, and the atmosphere became silent, Cao Yi looked at Mu Feichen who was in deep thought, and his inner thoughts were also flipping. This person, whether he should help or not, first of all, is to establish whether Mu Feichen's father Mu Hong is alive or dead now, if he is still alive, then where is it now? If he died, then it is unknown whether he left a back hand for his son Mu Feichen.

Even how many people in the Cao Gang are in Cao Ying's heart in Han don't know, after all, the Cao Gang has been controlled by the Mu family since ancient times, and the entire Cao Gang can be said to be equivalent to the private force or organization of the Mu family, so there must still be many people who are loyal to the Mu family in their hearts.

But judging from the information Mu Feichen said, it is really possible that after Jing Zhe's ruthless suppression and the party's disagreement in the early stage, these people will choose to submit on the surface and wait for the return of the Mu family in their hearts. There will definitely be such a situation, but it is uncertain who exactly intends to do so in their hearts, and how many people in the current Cao Gang have this idea.

So Cao Yi is still calculating, behind Mu Feichen, there is indeed something he covets, that is, the Cao Gang has been taking business routes and channels since ancient times, after nearly a thousand years of development, now the Cao Gang has basically covered all the cities that can be reached through the water system, and has its own cargo channels in some cities, especially in remote cities, which is a very good development opportunity for Cao Yi, who wants to develop and grow the Taibai Chamber of Commerce. Then the development speed of the Taibai Chamber of Commerce will definitely be increased by two or three times, which can shorten the time expected in Cao Yi's heart to more than half.

However, although it seems that the gains in the back are great, there are not a lot of things that need to be paid in the early stage. First of all, since the Cao Gang and the Salt Gang are both the two major gangs that have been circulating for nearly a thousand years, the natural forces are huge, and as for Mu Hong being seized by Jing Zhe, it will not happen under normal circumstances. But now it has really happened, showing that Jing Zhe does have strong means and strong strength to support his usurpation of power.
