Chapter 173: Does the third brother-in-law want to rebel?
A man in black quickly jumped up the wall and looked into the courtyard of the inn for a long time. There was no movement inside, and there was the sound of horses panting from the stables in the backyard. Only then did the man in black wave to the person behind him.
Behind him, outside the wall, six men in black crouched in the darkness. They all had knives in their hands. In order to prevent the knife from emitting a cold light, they all pointed the blade towards the dark side.
The black-clothed man on the wall waved and jumped off the wall without saying a word. And then! Reach for the door in front of the inn compound. Gently open the door and let your companions in. Then he gently closed the door, leaving one person to guard the place, and the other six people felt towards the main inn building.
When they got to the main building, two of the four of them, they approached the door. One of them pulled open the door with the blade of his knife and looked inside. The door was not fully opened, only a crack opened.
In the hall on the first floor of the inn, two lights are on. The wick was visibly pressed down and not very bright. In the hall, a young man on duty was already asleep on the counter.
The four men in black nodded, ready for battle.
A moment later, the sound of frightened horses came from the other side of the backyard.
"Do it!" The leader held a knife in his right hand, waved his left hand, and shouted in a low voice.
"Bang!" With a bang, the door of the inn was slammed open. The three of them rushed to the top of the stairs and went up to the second floor. A person ran directly to the young man who was sleeping on the counter. Before the young man could wake up, he raised his knife and slashed down.
"Dang!"
That's it! A man jumped out from behind the counter and smashed an iron rod on the blade.
"Ahh There is an ambush! The man in black who cut the boy screamed.
OK! His hands are clenched, or else! The knife in his hand will definitely be knocked down by the other party.
"There's an ambush!" Seeing this, the three black-clothed men who rushed to the top of the stairs also screamed, did not dare to break upstairs again, and retreated.
"Kill! Kill them! ”
That's it! In the hall on the first floor of the inn, more than a dozen people suddenly appeared, each holding a sword, eyeing at each other. On the top of the stairs leading to the second floor, a large torch was suddenly lit. The torches shine high above, and the scene below is clearly visible. Beside the young man with the torch stood the shopkeeper of the inn.
"Hehehe! We're worried we can't find you! Didn't expect it! You fools! It came again! ”
Speaking of this, his tone changed, and he ordered: "Kill!" ”
"Withdraw!" Seeing this, the four men in black hurriedly ran to the door.
The people at the inn didn't even have time to close the door, and watched them run out of the door.
Then! The two men in black in the backyard had already succeeded and rushed four horses. The man in black guarding the gate saw that there was an ambush and hurriedly opened the gate of the courtyard.
The people at the inn were prepared, but they still let the seven men in black run away! The man in black had already planned and stole the horse first.
"Sure enough! They are Wei people! ”
"That's right! They are Wei people! Not Qi people! ”
"That's right! They are the accents of the Wei people! ”
"I also thought it was someone from the Qi State Cheetah Team, but it turned out to be not! They are Wei people! ”
The assassination attempt failed, and the seven Wei assassination team members were furious. How could they never have imagined that the people of the Baigui caravan were so vigilant? How many days have passed, and they will still think of us coming over to assassinate again?
I even suspect that the people of the Bai Gui caravan may have been staying in the inn these days, waiting for them to take the bait.
"No! They have seen through our intentions! We have to hurry up to capture the third brother-in-law! After going back, the seven Wei people gathered around to discuss.
Day 2! Seven people disguised themselves as businessmen from Zhoudi, acted separately, and moved in Yinshan Town and other places. Others! All go to spread rumors. The ringleader took two people with the best martial arts and went directly to the third brother-in-law.
Bai Gui's third brother-in-law of the grassland, after leaving the inn in Yinshan Town, went directly to Heyang Town in the north.
Heyang Town is the closest town to Lan Gongzi Ranch. It is not as big as Yinshan Town, and there are not many businessmen.
The rich people in the town are all descendants of hereditary nobles. Most of these people have lost their ancestral businesses and have no right to inherit land, so they can only rely on the savings of their ancestors to run warehouses, wine stores, inns and other places to make a living.
The descendants of the hereditary aristocracy are far more than that, and some of them have long been reduced to commoners and fend for themselves. Most people, because of poverty, have left their ancestral fiefdoms in search of the most suitable place for them to survive.
Not all the descendants of the Son of Heaven, kings, and important ministers can live happily ever after. At that time, there was their "inheritance law". From generation to generation, those descendants who did not enjoy the inheritance law gradually became commoners and paupers.
Exactly because of this! The princes and sons of the Son of Heaven and the king's family, in order to compete for the right to inherit, the family does not recognize the family, brothers and sisters kill each other, and if one is killed, one less can inherit more.
But they still don't see it: some of their descendants are still reduced to civilians and paupers in the end. The end result of the competition is the same: it cannot shelter all future generations. just created one tragedy after another in which a family did not recognize a family and brothers and sisters killed each other.
"This week's horse business is so good! I heard that Qi Guo wants to buy 10,000 horses! The state of Chu wants to buy five thousand horses! South Korea, a small country, also has to buy 3,000 horses! Yes! ……”
After finding the inn where the third brother-in-law and other grassland people stayed, the leader sighed.
The two asked for food and drink, and talked quietly while eating and drinking. On the surface, it was a whisper, but in fact, it was for the third brother-in-law and other grassland people.
The third brother-in-law took all the grassland people and stayed in this inn. Wandering around town all day, looking for people to buy horses. Other than that! He also sent someone to secretly go to Yinshan Town to find a buyer. There are many merchants in Yinshan Town, and this town called Heyang is a place where birds don't.
"You want to buy a horse?" When a prairie man heard this, he leaned over and asked.
"We want to buy horses and do a horse business. But? We can't get horses, can we? Now Zhoudi, Marco is worth a lot! And in the steppes of the north, horses are the least valuable......"
"Where? Where? The steppe man interrupted: "The horses on our steppe are not like in the past!" The price of our horses on the steppe has risen! Before! Our horses can't be sold. Now it's different! It's not enough horses to sell! ”
"Oh?"
"When someone goes to our grassland to buy it, as long as they fancy the horse, the price will be high!"
"It seems! This horse's business won't work! The cost is high, where can we afford it? ”
"We also want to sell a dozen or twenty horses and sell them all over the world! Outcome? This? Alas! Never mind. ”
"Do you want to be in the horse business? Come here! Come upstairs! I'll talk to you! ”
Then! Bai Gui's third brother-in-law appeared at the staircase on the second floor, looking towards the hall on the first floor, waving at them!
"He's a horse dealer from the prairie! Yes! He's talking to you! You're going to be big this time. A young man said politely.
"I don't have the capital!" The assassination boss pretended to be a joke.
"What do you want to do business with him? He has tens of thousands of horses on his hands. As long as you have a market! He's willing to partner with you......"
With the little man's improvisation, the little leader went up to the second floor with a suspicious look.
I thought: Nimadhi! And such a good thing? Lackey 1 urine?
