Chapter 114: Qi Guo's brother-in-law

It was also when Bai Gui was discussing with his subordinates the assassination of Wei Jun (King Wei Hui), the brother-in-law of Qi Guo came over in person.

The eldest brother-in-law inherited his father's business and took over the family's business. Right now! His business such as inns, inns, and wine stores has been opened throughout the Qi country. Other than that! In the capitals of the vassal states of the Great Zhou Dynasty, branches were opened. In almost every big city, there are also his branches.

He's no one else! It is Linyi, a famous Qi businessman during the Warring States Period. His name is second only to Shang Shengbai Gui, just! Later, he was controlled by the magnates of Qi and became a spy of Qi. No! He is the leader of the spies.

Take advantage of the opportunity to open inns and inns in the various princes of the Great Zhou Dynasty to collect intelligence and serve the monarch of Qi.

At this time, Qi Guo was just planting spies to be young men in Linyi's warehouses and other stores. There are many things that the shopkeeper in charge and the brother-in-law of the boss behind the scenes don't know.

At this time, Linyi had only taken over the family's business for a short time, and the climate had not yet formed. The status of Qi is still very inconspicuous.

When Bai Gui rescued his father-in-law, Lin Yi was not yet an adult. When the brother-in-law became an adult, he began to let him take over. But he was disappointed! This brother-in-law, Qi Guo's "national concept" is very important, and he relies on Qi State wholeheartedly and interacts with the magnates of Qi State. Since then, Bai Gui has moved his family out of his father-in-law's house and lived in seclusion in the mountains, trying not to interact with his brother-in-law.

The failure of the old man's business was not in the business method, but in the way! Failed in the suppression of the magnates of the Qi State and other aspects.

Because! The nobles of the Qi State, they also want to use their power and financial resources to quickly occupy the market of the Qi State. But because of the old father-in-law, the family business of the powerful people has been severely hit. So! The collusion between officials and businessmen bankrupted the old man.

At that time, the Tian family, after the Tian family replaced Qi, first stabilized the political situation, controlled power, and fully controlled the situation of the Qi country. After the internal situation of the country stabilized, there was also a breakthrough in diplomacy and began to develop the economy. Nature! Fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, and the development of commerce must be in the hands of their own people.

Outcome! Their business was suppressed by the old father-in-law's family.

Bai Gui warned his brother-in-law more than once, telling him not to be controlled by the magnates of the Qi State, and to distinguish the line. Don't forget history and learn the lessons of your fathers. But! The brother-in-law is young and vigorous, but he can't get in. In desperation! Bai Gui had to give up his father-in-law's business.

When the sharp-beaked monkey gills were killed, there was not only one spy from the Qi Kingdom, but more than a dozen. But when they found out that Bai Gui had killed the sharp-beaked monkey gill, they didn't dare to show up again, leaving two people to continue watching Bai Gui's actions, and the others went back to report separately.

When the Qi State learned that Bai Gui was still in Zhongshan Kingdom, the spies did not blackmail him, but were killed, and the plan fell through. had to send someone to arrest Lin Yi overnight and let him persuade Bai Gui.

"Tell Baekyu! If you say yes, you have to say yes! If you don't say yes, you have to say yes! Otherwise! Your sister and your nephew are in our hands! Don't think that if you live in seclusion, you won't be able to find it? We're in control......"

Seeing that Lin Yi was reluctant, Qi Guo revealed his true form and told him: "Your family is also in our hands!" Just watch it out! As a member of Qi, who are you not for Qi? As a person! You can't protect your family, you're still a mess? ”

Under the coercion and temptation of the powerful, the eldest brother-in-law Linyi was powerless, so he had to agree to come to Zhongshan Kingdom.

"Brother-in-law! Uncle! Oh no! You and my family are all controlled by them! My sister her! My nephew is not long in coming! My women and my sons and daughters, they will not live long! Woooooo ……”

After seeing Bai Gui, the eldest brother-in-law Lin Yi crawled to Bai Gui and cried and told him what had happened.

"Where are your sister and your nephew now? Where are the people? Baekyu asked calmly.

"I don't know! I was caught straight by them, and then! Just force me to come to Zhongshan to find you! ”

"That is? You don't know what your sister and your nephew are doing? Baekyu asked.

"I don't know! Woooooo Brother-in-law! I know who they are! With their people, they can do everything! Brother-in-law! Woowoo woo ......"

"Then you don't know if your family is controlled by them? Isn't it? Baekyu asked again.

The thing is probably like this: in order to achieve the goal, the Qi side arrested his brother-in-law Linyi, scared him, and forced him to comply. Outcome! This brother-in-law is young and doesn't take care of things, and he is afraid when he encounters big things. He thought that his family was being controlled, and if he didn't obey, he would die. And actually! People probably didn't touch his family.

"I don't know! Brother-in-law! I believe in them! They do everything! If I don't agree, he will kill my family first and show me their cruelty! Brother-in-law! Woowoo woo ......"

Bai Gui knew in his heart that even if Qi Guo wanted to do something, he would not do it directly. It's a big deal to scare you first, and then negotiate terms with you. At last! If you don't agree to them, they will turn their backs and turn against your family.

With his current status, ordinary princes and kings would not dare to do anything to him. Let alone! Those magnates below the Qi State. This matter should not have reached the time when the king of Qi came forward. This matter has just begun, and it should not have alarmed the king of Qi yet.

If something happened to Qi Guo's family, someone would come over to report it in a day or two. By the side of Qi Guo's family, he arranged a few diehards. Other than that! In the territory of Qi State, after he gave up his father-in-law's business, he secretly opened his own business network. If something happens to the family members over there, the inn and inn will send someone to protect it. So! Under normal circumstances, there will be no accidents.

"It's okay to sell five thousand horses to the Wei State! But! Blackmail me, don't give a penny, I can't do it! You don't want to think about it either? Where do I have so much money? I don't give money to the horse dealers in the grassland, and the horse dealers in the grassland will not give me the horses! People are not stupid! If you don't deliver the goods to him, it will be impossible for them to give the horses......" Bai Gui explained, looking embarrassed.

"They say! If you don't give horses to Wei, they will kill your daughter Baimei!" Your daughter Baimei is in their hands! Qi Guo's brother-in-law Lin Yi said.

"Why is my daughter Baimei in their hands again?" Baekyu asked puzzled.

"I listen to them! Bai Mei was released by Wei Jun. But! But it's under their control. That's it! If you don't give it, you have to give! Give and give! Lin Yi said in a tough tone.

"I can't help it! Brother Linyi! I can't come up with the money! There is no money, and the steppe people don't give horses! Where do I have a horse? Isn't it? I tricked the grassland people into coming to Zhongshan to sell horses. I'm doing business without capital! I? ”

"Then you don't care about the lives of my sister and your family? You don't care about me? Lin Yi asked.

"Isn't this a matter of care? I can't take care of this! Bai Gui waved his sleeves and said impatiently: "You go back and tell them!" Sell them 5,000 horses to them! But! Absolutely no way without money! I can't do anything about blackmailing me! ”
