When the Dajin Kingdom of Liaodong was in full swing, and the tribes of the grassland did not dare to disagree, when the eight Jin merchants could walk on the grassland unscrupulously and transport materials at will, suddenly the caravan was robbed.

These materials were clearly and urgently needed by the Great Khan of the Dajin Kingdom, and they were collected by the Eight Great Jin Merchants with extra money than usual, and they were also much more than the usual amount of goods. Suddenly, the Eight Great Jin Merchants learned that these goods had been robbed, which was like a stuffy stick, and it really hit the heads of the Eight Great Jin Merchants.

In Zhangjiakou Castle, it was the Wang family who cried the loudest, and the sound shook the whole city. Their head of the family, Wang Dengku, left only a heartless corpse. The people of the Wang family, while busy crying and mourning, began to intrigue for the election of the new head of the family, and no one cared about other things.

The heads of the other six largest Jin merchants in the city, Jin Liangyu, Wang Dayu, Liang Jiabin, Tian Shenglan, Zhai Tang, and Huang Yongfa, all gathered in the house of Fan Yongdou, the leader of the caravan, to discuss the robbery of the caravan.

None of the seven of them had ever considered whether the money was no longer earned. The silver money given by Liaodong Jianyu has already blackened their conscience.

"Brother Fan, the goods have been robbed, how can I give an explanation to the Great Khan?" Jin Liangyu looked at Fan Yongdou, who was sitting on the main seat, and asked with a frown.

Wang Dayu, who was sitting opposite him, didn't wait for Fan Yongdou to answer, he added worriedly: "Yes, we can't be sent to Liaodong as scheduled, if the Great Khan thinks that our words don't count, if we don't choose to trade with the eight of us anymore, what can we do?" ”

The eight of them were not very good before, and it was only after doing business with the Dajin Kingdom of Liaodong that the money rolled in, and they suddenly became the most powerful Jin merchants in Zhangjiakou. This cash cow. You have to catch it! As for the words about conscience that came back from the message, hehe, how much is conscience worth?

Although the other people didn't speak, they all stared at Fan Yongdou with their hearts, hoping that he could come up with a charter. After all, for the situation of the Dajin Kingdom. Fan Yongdou is the most familiar.

While they were talking, Fan Yongdou had already thought about it, and immediately replied: "Even if we spend more money, I'm afraid we won't be able to raise so many supplies for a while." And those subordinates were troubled by the horse thief, and they didn't dare to go out of the customs for fear. Therefore, it is impossible to fulfill the requirements of the Great Khan in a timely manner. ”

None of them are stupid, Fan Yongdou concluded. After a little brainstorming, they all agreed.

"Brother Fan, in terms of goods, as long as we spread the news more widely and raise the price a little more, I believe we can still collect it. In order not to lose his trust, spend more money, that is also a helpless thing. ”

Tian Shenglan frowned and spoke. The others nodded slightly, apparently agreeing with what he said, "As for the manpower." It's the same thing, as long as we spend a little more money, we will definitely be able to recruit enough people. However, there is such a horse thief outside the customs, and it is difficult to say whether this goods will be cheaper for them. ”

"yes. Listening to those who came back, this horse thief was different from the ordinary, and acted according to the rules, and had a crowd of 3,000. Ordinary tribes are no match for them. The most important thing is. They seem to be talking about morality, and they hate Dajin Guo to the core. We can't hold them back, let alone buy them, with money! ”

Huang Yongfa, who spoke, arrived at Fan's house at the latest, and obviously did a detailed investigation.

Fan Yongdou nodded in response to what they said, and after Huang Yongfa said it, he didn't speak again, he guessed to continue the topic he just said: "You can rest assured, the Great Khan is broad-minded, wise and martial, and my own family will take care of it, he will understand our difficulties, and will not embarrass our ......."

When he said this, the other six people were all envious in their hearts, he Fan Yongdou had a good family, although his official position in the Dajin Kingdom was not high, but he was deeply trusted by the Great Khan.

His family is really worthy of being a descendant of Fan Zhongyan, and as a Han Chinese, he has won the trust of the Great Khan, and his ability can be seen to be extraordinary.

"As Brother Tian said, while raising the price and spending more money to raise enough materials, we will send someone to send a message to Liaodong quickly, tell the situation of the horse thief, and let the Great Khan decide how to send this material to Liaodong?"

As soon as Fan Yongdou's words fell, Liang Jiabin, who had not spoken, suddenly interjected and said: "This is okay, I happen to have something, I can immediately send someone to Liaodong quickly!" ”

"Ah, I also have something to do, I also need to go to Liaodong quickly." When Huang Yongfa heard this, he said with a little surprise.

"I have something to ...... too"

“……”

After a circle, I found that everyone had something to do and just wanted to send someone to Liaodong. Fan Yongdou frowned, looked around at them for a while, and then said slowly: "Since everyone has something to do, I guess this matter is likely to be the same thing." It's better for us all to write it out and see if it's the same thing, so that we can contact the Great Khan. ”

The other six looked at each other, had no opinion, and quickly wrote down to look at each other.

In the end, Fan Yongdou said to the others: "Since the Great Khan has asked us to collect the defense situation of the Ming army in the land of Gyeonggi and the vicinity, the temper and character skills of the garrison generals, and the temper and character skills of those officials in charge, etc., why don't we summarize the information we have collected and give the Great Khan a detailed statement signed by everyone?" ”

Everyone looked at each other and knew that this was to avoid the internal friction of the eight families, and now it is the seven families. Moreover, it gave the Great Khan the most detailed instructions, which was also conducive to him making corresponding decisions, which was a two-way thing. Otherwise, if they are given separately, the Liaodong side does not know the details, and it is difficult to distinguish whose family is the most true.

They were all businessmen, and when they looked at each other, they understood the benefits and disadvantages, and even nodded and agreed to Fan Yongdou's proposal.

These people were very clever, and they had sensed something from the Great Khan's request. However, they did not consider the land of Gyeonggi, which would be devastated and mourned. What they considered was that with the wealth of the land of Gyeonggi and the boldness of the Great Khan, as long as they did what they did, the Great Khan would be satisfied, and the mountain of money would surely roll in!

The result of the discussion of the seven people was to ask Fan Yongdou to send people to Liaodong as soon as possible, and through his own family's connections, he personally explained to the Great Khan what was happening here.

At the same time, they will also send their men and horses to the grassland to track down the information of those horse thieves. As long as you can confirm the origin of these horse thieves who have never been seen before, you can report to the Great Khan and send troops to exterminate these evil horse thieves! They believed that no force on the steppe could stop the Khan's random twist. The army of the Dajin Kingdom is invincible!

And the so-called horse thief who made the seven Jin merchants worry about it, after many days of marching, finally bypassed the Naturalization City and returned to the base area. (To be continued.) )
