Jin Yiwei trained these spies, not as later generations thought, full of cold-blooded, withdrawn and cruel, the means are actually quite clever, the spies not only have eyes, means, have their own unique skills (if you don't have much ability, you can't be favored by the master's family, if you can't be favored by the master's family, how to find out important information), and most of them have no heart, especially these orphans, they are even more loyal to Jinyiwei.

In fact, this is in line with common sense, if you can't let most of the spies return to their hearts, how to drive them to serve sincerely, if Ma Er is not because he has been without food and clothing for a long time, and his mind is more mature than that of young people, he can see from the various behaviors of the imperial court, it is estimated that it will be difficult for him to return to Jinyiwei in this life, otherwise he may not be so easy to give his bottom to Zhiwen.

After listening to Zhang Xiao's words, thinking of this kid's previous behavior of being good at drinking but not greedy for cups, combined with his performance after learning the identities of himself and others, Ma Er already believed most of this kid's words in his heart, he was really lucky, he found someone at random, but he didn't expect to be able to pick up a treasure.

"There's another person, who is in the same place as you, and you still know each other's existence, which is not very distant." Although Niu Wu's words are a bit nitpicky, they are not unreasonable, Zhang Xiao's situation is not common, and most of the spies don't know who their companions are even if they are in the same place.

"That's right, Senpai." Zhang Xiao hurriedly explained, without the slightest dissatisfaction, in his opinion, so cautious, is the real brocade secret agent, "We grew up together, with tacit understanding, the original Shangfeng said, I complement each other's temperament, and the role together is greater, and I also said that I have a temperament that jumps out, and I should focus on Yu Da in case of trouble." ”

Ma Er nodded, "Cheng, I believe you are." "He used to run between the secret agents, and in the end he saw more, although there are not many cases of Zhang Xiao and Yu Da, but it is not nothing.

"Then why didn't this Brother Yu Da come with you this time?" Xu Jiu asked.

"The Fan family sent him to Datong." Speaking of which, Zhang Xiao was actually a little puzzled.

He knows what happened to Yu Datong going to Datong, isn't it more suitable for him to spread rumors, how could he let Yu Da, a stuffy gourd, go, and go to the Baoan Prefecture to secretly inquire about the news, which is consistent with Yu Da's temperament, but it turned out to be his own arrangement, but this is fine, if Yu Da comes here, with his caution, he may not be able to fall into the trap of the general banner, it is not beautiful.

Zhang Xiao's idea was right, in fact, Fan Xuan, the head of the Fan family, arranged it this way, but the two of them were not well known to the rest of the Fan Mansion, so they were arranged by mistake in the end.

"Brother Zhang Xiao, can you tell me the purpose of your coming here, and why did Brother Yuda go to Datong?" Ma Er This is the final test for Zhang Xiao, if he is unwilling to say it, or hesitates to say it, then his identity and what he said before will be very suspicious.

Ma Er has dealt with the spies for many years, distributed money, and recorded what they saw and heard in detail, and the more people have seen, it is natural to see people, since Zhang Xiao said that he wants to serve Jinyiwei again, then as a new Shangfeng, it is a matter of course to interrogate information, how does this Zhang Xiao's subsequent reaction, Ma Er is confident that he can see whether he is sincere.

"Your Excellency's words are wrong, as a brocade secret agent, you are our superior, and it is our duty to report the news to you, and there is no need to ask for our opinion." Zhang Xiaozheng said, "If you don't ask, I'll say it too." ”

After speaking, he did not hesitate, and told Ma Er and the three of them in detail what he had to do when he came to the security state capital and Yu Da went to Datong.

"Good boy, you've got yours." Ma Erzhong patted Zhang Xiao on the shoulder, "These two pieces of information of yours have helped Zhuolu Trading Company a lot." ”

I really had the intention to plant flowers and flowers, and I didn't intend to plant willows and willows, but I didn't expect that the information brought by Zhang Xiao, this kid was all related to Zhuolu Trading Company, the last trace of doubt in Ma Er's heart disappeared completely, he believed that this kid in front of him regarded himself as the real Jinyiwei General Banner, and he was sincerely willing to serve Jinyiwei.

"Zhuolu Trading Company?" Zhang Xiao raised his eyebrows, "Lord Zongqi, where did this trading company come from?" ”

Ma Er secretly screamed badly, he didn't expect this kid to be so alert, and he didn't choose to say anything in excitement, and actually asked him to listen, but looking at him, it was not that he was suspicious of his identity, but that he was very interested in Zhuolu Trading Company.

Although I can't tell him clearly at the moment, but in the future, I will ask them to find out the news, and it must be related to Zhuolu Trading Company.

Ma Er's face was the same, and the thought in his heart turned around, and he already had a plan.

"Zhang Xiao, right? What I'm going to say next is a matter of confidentiality, and you should have done some credit to hear about it, but the two messages you brought today have made a lot of contributions, and you are qualified to hear them. Ma Er said seriously.

"Today actually wanted to revive the brocade cloth majesty, but has been suffering from the shyness of the interior, last year to the east of the prisoner, there was no news in advance, today was angry, so he made up his mind to restore the glory of the brocade cloth in the past, the money and food are insufficient, then earn it yourself, this Zhuolu trading company, is adhering to the will of the present and established, its purpose is not to treat us people badly, in the future, all the rewards of you and me, are from the Zhuolu trading company."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Er couldn't help but praise himself, he didn't expect this lie to be combined with the facts of the court, and the more he said it, he thought to himself, if he replaced himself with Zhang Xiao, most of them would believe this, yes, in the future, the newcomer will say so.

Sure enough, after listening to this, Zhang Xiao clapped his hands and said, "The emperor has finally enlightened, if there is no us, how can we know the real public sentiment and public opinion, and it will only be played by those courtiers, so in this way, Zhuolu Trading Company will be our food and clothing parents in the future, right, Lord Zongqi." ”

"Food and clothing parents? That's right. Ma Erdao, "Therefore, in the future, if there is any news related to Zhuolu Trading Company, we must pay close attention to it, especially if there is such a hostile act against the trading company today, it needs to be reported urgently, have you heard?" ”

"Understood, Lord Banner." Zhang Xiao replied, and then said with some remorse, "Speaking of which, the fact that the head of the Fan family was able to find the location of Zhuolu Trading Company so quickly should be related to the news I confided in order to attract attention, but this matter was done poorly, I should have kept my mouth shut." ”

"Oh, what's going on? Tell me about it? Ma Er was very interested, and when Zhang Xiao said this before and after, he was relieved, "Those who don't know are not guilty, besides, Fan Xuan, the old fox, if you don't say it, he can think of it sooner or later." ”

Then after thinking about it, Ma Er said that the Jinnan salt merchants led by Zhou Chengyun had a part in the Zhuolu Trading Company, and asked Zhang Xiao to pay attention to the relevant information of Zhou Dagongzi in the future.

Zhang Xiao had no doubt when he heard this, the emperor was already short of money, if there was no external help, especially the support of these big businessmen, what would he use to support this business and raise so many secret agents, "Don't worry, Lord Zongqi, I will take care of it, and I will not disappoint you." ”
