Chapter 149: Smuggling

At the beginning of May, when spring and summer meet, the weather turns from warm to dry.

Many merchants and travelers who should have traveled in a hurry would find a place to rest and drink tea at noon, and the business of teahouses and taverns in various places became booming.

Songhelou is the leading restaurant in the whole Yishui County, with an endless stream of guests coming and going from the south to the north, and everyone may appear here.

Yan Qi walked into the Songhe Tower, looked around, and saw that more than a dozen tables on the first floor were full of guests at the moment, so he walked up the stairs to the second floor.

Yan Qi found a window seat and sat down, and immediately a guy from the restaurant came over to greet him and said, "Guest officer, what do you want?" ”

"A pot of Taishan Daqu, and a plate of donkey meat with sauce." Yan Qi said casually, he was not actually hungry, but it was because of the dry weather, so he thought of this to have a sip of wine and relieve his boredom.

"Great!" The guy in the restaurant put the rag on his shoulder, and then dragged a long voice and shouted, "A pot of Taishan Daqu, a plate of donkey meat with sauce"

There weren't many things ordered, and there was no need to fry them freshly, so the wine and sauce donkey meat were quickly delivered to Yan Qi.

Yan Qi drank the elegant and mellow Taishan Daqu, while tasting the most authentic sauce donkey meat made by Songhe Restaurant, thinking about the recent gains and losses of business.

At this time, the conversation of a few people dressed as business travelers at the adjacent table attracted Yan Qi's attention.

"I heard that the bandits of all sizes in Mengyin County and our Yishui County have basically been swept away."

"Why haven't you heard about it, this matter is about to spread throughout our Yimeng. That Yimeng Autonomous Alliance Army is really powerful, since it destroyed Yu Sanhei and dominated Yiyuan County, it has begun to continuously sweep away the large and small bandit gangs in the surrounding counties. ”

"I just don't understand, it is said that this Yimeng Autonomous Alliance Army is also a bandit who has opened a mountain and set up a cabinet, how can it be like a bandit. Bandits are being exterminated everywhere. ”

"It doesn't matter if he has a grudge or not, this bandit has been swept away, and it will be much safer for us to go, right?"

"That's right, I heard that there are nearly 10,000 people in this Yimeng Autonomous Alliance Army, and I don't know when we will be able to completely eliminate the bandits in the entire Yimeng Mountains."

"I guess it's going to be fast, but I heard that this Yimeng Autonomous Alliance is still expanding its manpower. Attacking in several ways, they were sweeping bandits from all over the counties of Yimeng. Nowadays, those bandits, big and small, are terrified of the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance. ”

"Okay, if we can really get rid of the bandits, then our Yimeng days will be much better."

……

When Yan Qi heard this, he was extremely shocked, he didn't expect that he had only been out to buy goods for a few months, and the situation in the Yimeng Mountains had changed so drastically.

Could this Yimeng Autonomous Alliance Army be pretended to be by the Beiyang Army?

It can wipe out bandit gangs of all sizes with the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves like this. This strength is truly terrifying. I don't know if the sudden appearance of the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance will affect and hinder his business.

Just as Yan Qi was pondering, a young man with two retinues appeared in front of him and unceremoniously sat down in his seat opposite him.

Yan Qi frowned and looked at the young man in front of him who he had never seen before, and was about to open his mouth to drive people away, when he heard the young man ask, "Yan Qi?" ”

Yan Qi didn't expect this young man to know him, and he was suddenly puzzled, and was about to ask. However, the young man's next words made his face change drastically.

"Known as the Seven Masters of Lunan, the largest tobacco smuggler in the entire southeast of Lunan. Right? ”

Yan Qi and Qi Ye are two completely different identities, many people in Yishui County know Yan Qi, but there are absolutely very few people who know Yan Qi is the largest tobacco smuggler in southeast Lu.

Yan Qi immediately thought that it was the enemy or the opponent who sent someone to try to disadvantage him, so his right hand quietly touched the shell gun on his waist.

The young man smiled slightly and said, "If I were the Seventh Master." Surely the gun will not be used in this situation. ”

Yan Qi looked up, and at a glance, he saw the barge gun exposed by the two attendants behind the young man after slightly opening the hem of his clothes, he was not sure that he would retreat after killing the young man in front of him with one shot, so he had to give up the plan to use the gun for the time being.

"I don't know which way the little brother is from, what do you call it?" Yan Qi asked with an ugly face.

The young man replied, "Wang Mo." ”

That's right. This young man was none other than Wang Mo, who had recently been busy expanding his army and sweeping up bandits in various counties in the Yimeng Mountains.

Yan Qi carefully searched through the memories in his mind, but he still couldn't think of what kind of person this young man named Wang Mo would be.

Seeing Yan Qi's puzzled expression, Wang Mo smiled faintly: "I am the commander of the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance, so maybe Yan Qiye will understand better, right?" ”

What the?

The commander of the recently rising Yimeng Autonomous Alliance Army turned out to be this young man who was about the same age as his son?

Yan Qi looked at Wang Mo in shock, and at the same time, he had to admire in his heart that the means of the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance Army could actually stop him at the only time and place when he did not bring an escort.

"It turned out to be Commander Wang of the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance, I don't know if Commander Wang is looking for me Lao Yan, what are you doing?" Yan Qi, who came back from the shock, asked in a deep voice, he couldn't understand a little, why Wang Mo was looking for him, a tobacco dealer, could it be that the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance Army also wanted to intervene in the tobacco business?

As if he had guessed Yan Qi's thoughts at this time, Wang Mo said again: "Seventh Master, you can rest assured, our Yimeng Autonomous Alliance Army has no idea of getting involved in the tobacco business. ”

Hearing this, Yan Qi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, if the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance Army had the idea of meddling in the tobacco business, with the strength and strength of the other party, he really couldn't resist.

As long as it doesn't involve tobacco smuggling, then it's easy to say anything, Yan Qi's face softened slightly, and said, "Then I don't know what my old Yan can do to help Commander Wang?" ”

A tobacco smuggler like Yan Qi is indeed ruthless, but he is also a person who understands current affairs. As long as his head was not stupid by the door, he would never have rashly offended Wang Mo, who held the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance.

Wang Mo was also very satisfied with Yan Qi's knowledge, so he said: "It's nothing, it's just that our Yimeng Autonomous Alliance Army wants to borrow a way from the Seventh Master." ”

"Borrowing the way?" Yan Qi groaned, and seemed to understand what Wang Mo meant.

Wang Mo nodded and said, "That's right, borrow the road!" Our Yimeng Autonomous Alliance Army wants to buy a large number of goods from Shanghai and come back, and we want to take the road of the Seventh Master to transport it back to Yimeng, I don't know what the Seventh Master wants? ”

Yan Qi thought for a while and asked, "If it's convenient, I don't know if Commander Wang can tell me what kind of goods it is and how many?" ”

"There's nothing inconvenient, the goods that our Yimeng Autonomous Alliance wants to buy are oil!" Wang Mo replied, "As for the quantity of goods, it depends on the specific situation, and in principle, of course, the more the better." ”

"Oil?" Yan Qi was surprised, he had also heard a little about what oil was, this oil seemed to be a foreign product, but he didn't understand what Wang Mo wanted to buy this thing for.

"I will arrange for someone to go to Shanghai to be responsible for matters related to the purchase of oil from foreigners, but I will borrow the way of the Seventh Master to transport it back to Yimeng. However, there is one thing I hope the Seventh Master can do, that is, this batch of goods must be concealed from any civilian government, even foreign forces, and it is best to ensure that no one knows that there is oil transported into Yimeng. Wang Mo Zhengse emphasized.

If you want to keep it as secret as Wang Mo, the difficulty will inevitably double.

"This ......" Yan Qi was a little embarrassed, he didn't want to take this job, he was shrewd and sophisticated, and he faintly smelled the huge risks hidden in it.

"Seventh Master, rest assured, everything will come according to the rules of the road, and we will pay double the money for the road!" Wang Mo also said that oil is a big deal, and he doesn't mind spending a lot of money on it.

Seeing Wang Mo's inevitable posture, Yan Qi became more and more uneasy, and said hesitantly: "Commander Wang, it's not a matter of money, I'm just worried about ......."

Before Yan Qi finished speaking, he was interrupted by Wang Mo: "Seventh Master, I'm afraid you don't know why I was able to find you in this place at this time, right?" ”

Yan Qi was stunned for a moment, and looked at Wang Mo, he was also very strange why Wang Mo could grasp his whereabouts so accurately and find him silently. You must know that Yishui County is his old nest for many years, and it is full of his ears and eyes, otherwise he would not dare to come to this Songhe Tower alone to drink.

Wang Mo smiled slightly, and said neatly: "Seventh Master, do you know that now the entire Yishui County, large and small bandit gangs, have been completely wiped out by my Yimeng Autonomous Alliance Army. The entire Yishui County is under my control, and you people, as long as I want to move, absolutely none of them will be able to escape. ”

Speaking of this, Wang Mo's eyes lit up, his voice turned cold, and he asked, "Seventh Master, are you sure, do you really want to reject me?" ”

The Yimeng Mountains are a place where the law of the jungle is followed, and the local government is negligible, and the most powerful local bandits or bandit alliances basically have the final say.

Since the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance Army has wiped out all the bandit gangs in Yishui County, it means that they have the power of life and death in the entire Yishui County from now on.

Because of this, Wang Mo didn't say that he quietly found Yan Qi, even if he destroyed Yan Qi's entire smuggling gang, it was only a matter of one sentence.

The more he thought about it, the more frightened Yan Qi became, and his entire back was soaked in cold sweat.

"Everything...... Everything is at the command of the commander. Yan Qi nodded with a pale face, he was a person who knew the times, and he understood the consequences of rejecting Wang Mo, so he naturally didn't dare to have the slightest objection.

Wang Mo nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's good, I hope we can cooperate happily." The seventh master doesn't have to worry too much, our Yimeng Autonomous Alliance Army is by no means a bully, everything is in accordance with the rules of the road, and the money will not be half a cent less than you. For specific matters, I will arrange someone to contact you later. ”

After saying that, Wang Mo turned around and left Songhe Tower, leaving Yan Qi in a cold sweat.

To smuggle oil to Yimeng, Wang Mo was, of course, to prepare for war and reserve strategic materials. He planned to build a large airfield near Dujiazhai and set up a flying group under the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance.

Think about it, at this time, hundreds of flight students transferred from Hubei Aviation Institute should also arrive in Dujiazhai with the third batch of personnel.

However, when Wang Mo rushed back to Dujiazhai, he hadn't seen those pilots yet, but he had met a few people he didn't expect. (To be continued......)
