After listening to Wei Hong's method, Lei Chuhan immediately agreed. Businessmen travel from south to north and come into contact with all kinds of people every day, and it can be said that every businessman is an efficient intelligence gatherer. The members of the Blue and White Society are placed in various trading houses.,Under the cover of business.,Secretly doing intelligence gathering.,No one can find out.。

Just when Wei Hong and Lei Chuhan were having a deep discussion on the details of this matter, Li Zongren suddenly stumbled in, and as soon as he saw Wei Hong, he hurriedly shouted: "Son, something is wrong!" ”

Wei Hong and Lei Chuhan hurriedly stopped the topic and looked at Li Zongren in unison. Seeing that Li Zongren was sweating profusely and discouraged, he expected that something big had happened, but Wei Hong had already developed a surname that was not shocked by changes everywhere, so he was not the slightest nervous. He pressed his hand against Li Zongren, signaling him not to panic, and then said, "What's the matter?" ”

Li Zongren glanced at Lei Chuhan, then took a deep breath and said loudly: "The batch of grey cloth we transported back from Jiangzhou was robbed halfway!" ”

"What!?" Wei Hong, who was still unfazed just now, heard the news, involuntarily bounced up from his chair and looked at Li Zongren in disbelief: "When did it happen?" ”

"Yesterday, when a caravan carrying grey cloth entered the capital, it was robbed in the evening. I just found out about a groom who was driving a cart and came back! Li Zongren said in a trembling tone, as if he was frightened by this.

Although Wei Hong doesn't care much about the business of Hongyuan Commercial Bank recently, he still knows what kind of business Hongyuan Commercial Bank has done. Seeing that the weather is about to get warmer, the thick clothes of the people have to be replaced, so it is necessary to rush to make spring clothes, but there are not many grey fabrics in the warehouse, and the grey fabrics of the Tianyou Commercial Bank are also in short supply. For this reason, Li Xiehe simply decided to buy a batch of cloth from Jiangzhou and ship it back to the capital directly. First, the difference in the middle is omitted, and the cost will be cheaper. Second, it can also solve the urgent need of Hongyuan Commercial Bank. As far as Wei Hong knows, the amount of that batch of grey cloth is very large, and it cost a full 100,000 taels of silver to buy it alone, if it loses this batch of grey cloth, although it is not fatal to Hongyuan Commercial Bank, it is a big blow.

Upon learning of this, Wei Hong's first reaction was that other firms with conflicts of interest had done good deeds. But after thinking about it, now Hongyuan Commercial Bank is even controlled by the Chamber of Commerce in Beijing, and there is no commercial bank in the cloth industry that can compete with Hongyuan Commercial Bank. The firms whose financial resources are comparable to those of Hongyuan Commercial Bank are all engaged in the trading of tea and porcelain, and there is no need for all walks of life to risk angering Wei Hong and attack Hongyuan Commercial Bank. If it's not commercial competition, who would it be? Wei Hong couldn't figure it out after thinking about it, and finally could only ask Li Zongren again: "Did the coachman who escaped say who robbed him?" ”

Li Zongren hurriedly said: "The coachman said that it was two women, and they both covered their faces with scarves, so they couldn't see their appearances clearly. Listening to the accent of the speak, it doesn't look like a person from the capital, but with a hint of the tone of the capital, it is obvious that a foreigner has lived in the capital for a while. The driver said that the two women hijacked the entire convoy and detained it in Bishan on the border with the capital. Childe, did you hurry up and contact the Ministry of War and ask the Ministry of War to send troops to take the convoy back? This batch of grey cloth must not have the slightest mistake! ”

Wei Hong, who was still surprised just now, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after listening to Li Zongren's words, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, waved his hand, and said softly: "Okay, I know, you can step down." ”

"Childe ......" Li Zongren saw that Wei Hong was not the slightest nervous, and was very puzzled, but instead of retreating, he wanted to ask for an understanding.

Wei Hong said confidently: "Sir, you don't have to worry about this matter, and don't leak out the news that the convoy was hijacked." Later, I will personally go to Bishan, and the 100,000 taels of silver will be brought back, and you can rest assured. ”

After sending Li Zongren away, Wei Hong sat on the chair, took a sip of tea, and couldn't stop laughing in his heart. Two women? Foreign accent, and have lived in the capital for a while? If it's not Yan Ruyu and Ya'er, who can it be? This hijacking of the convoy must have been an attempt to make a trip to the mountains. Since Yan Ruyu let herself go, then just go for a trip. It's a bit ridiculous to just invite yourself with such fanfare.

When Lei Chuhan heard that the convoy of Hongyuan Commercial Bank had been hijacked, he was nervous for a while, and hurriedly said, "Brother Wei, do you need me to send some of my subordinates to Bishan to inquire about the news?" ”

Wei Hong put down the teacup and waved his hand: "No need, I'll just go later." ”

"The other party hijacked the convoy, it must be ill-intentioned, Brother Wei went in person, if there is any mistake, what should I do?" Lei Chuhan said nervously.

"Don't worry, it's okay." There are some things that Wei Hong is inconvenient to say to Lei Chu Hanming, after all, even Wei Hong's wife doesn't know about Yan Ruyu. It's not that I'm worried that Wanniang or Lei Chuhan will spread the word about this, the main thing is that the fewer people who know about it, the better, after all, he is entangled with the son of a traitor, if Comrade Lao Li knows, then Wei Hong is not as simple as sitting on a cold bench.

After sitting in the lobby for a while, Wei Hong sent someone to clean up a room for Lei Chuhan and arranged for Lei Chuhan to stay. After settling down Lei Chuhan, Wei Hong took Zhou Dali and rode a horse towards Bishan. Wearing the stars and the moon, the starry night rushed, and arrived at Bishan at noon on the second day. Just when Wei Hong and Zhou Dali were leading the horse and walking along the wheel print to the mountain, there was a sudden sound of breaking the sky out of thin air, and when Wei Hong reacted, he saw a trembling feather arrow inserted at his feet.

"Not good! There is an ambush! When Zhou Dali saw this arrow, he didn't say a word, and directly threw Wei Hong to the ground, dragging Wei Hong behind the horse. One hand pressed Wei Hong's head, and the other hand rested on the horse's back, preventing the horse from escaping. After a while, no more arrows were fired, so Zhou Dali had the courage to stick his head out of his horse and quietly look up the mountain.

As a result, as soon as he raised his head, a feather arrow grazed Zhou Dali's scalp and shot over, startling Zhou Dali, and cold sweat dripped down Wei Hong's face.

"What to do, what to do, what to do!" Zhou Dali said three things to do in one breath, his eyes kept turning in circles in his sockets, thinking of a way. After a while, Zhou Dali gritted his teeth and shouted at Wei Hong, who was caught in the squeaky nest: "Sir, that archer is so powerful, it's not a way for us to hide like this." Wait a minute, let's rush back together, you're in front, I'll protect you behind you! Zhou Dali means that he wants to use his body as a shield to create a chance for Wei Hong to live.
