Chapter 178: The Merchant's Secret (I)

What if I came to tell you that there was a way for them to escape?

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone was stunned, and the old guys who were about to cry and bite their tongues to commit suicide just now didn't seem to react, and thought they had heard it wrong, and subconsciously asked, "Well, what did you say?"

Hearing Li Liehuo's words, at this time Lieyang Yan finally understood what he meant, and couldn't help but say loudly: "Lord Yan is kind-hearted, we admire it from the bottom of our hearts, but the people in these merchants are all guilty sinners, and they will inevitably have resentment towards you when they abscond, I am afraid that even if you spare them, those people will not be grateful, and they will find trouble with you in the future, which is not good." ”

Hearing Li Liehuo's words, Lieyang Yan wanted to persuade a few more words, but at this time, the people of those merchants had already knelt down in front of Li Liehuo, and Shang Juyin said in a long voice: "Lord Yan is kind-hearted and broad-minded, I and other merchants are very impressed, and I am extremely ashamed of what I have done to Lord Yan before, as long as Lord Yan has a way to protect our business, we promise to tell all the remaining clansmen that they will never pursue this matter, please rest assured that Lord Yan Envoy!"

Hearing Li Liehuo's words, the people of these four merchants could only nod their heads again and again, this was simply unbelievable to them, where did they dare to say a word, as long as they could leave a little blood for the merchants to tell them to do anything, they were willing to do it.

Lie Yang Yan had already returned to his original state at this time, and called a few of his soldiers to come over and point to the four merchants on the ground, but these four people did not resist, and let them rush over and grab their hands one by one, pull them up, and rush to Li Liehuo's house.

After the previous battle, these people were all embarrassed, especially Shang Juyin, who had fought with Blazing Sun Yan before, was seriously injured, his face was bloodless, his clothes were rotten, and he looked like a beggar, and he still needed a few other people to help him not fall.

Li Liehuo looked at the four people kneeling down below, and sighed: "I knew that there was today, why bother in the first place, I should have been severely punished according to your crimes, but it is not easy to read that your business has been operating for many years, and I, Li Liehuo, do not want to kill, now I give you a chance, as long as you cooperate well, we can not pursue the rest of the business!"

The four merchants nodded again and again: "Lord Yan Envoy will try to be as straightforward as possible, and I will wait for a few guarantees to know everything and say everything!"

Oh, it turns out that this kid wants to ask this! Lieyang Yan was also observing everything in the room at this time, and when he heard Li Liehuo's words, he realized in his heart: Originally, I didn't understand what this Li Liehuo wanted to do, but I wanted to take advantage of the fact that these people were not dead to find out about the Fengyue Empire. Also, if they die, no one will know about the collusion with Fengyue anymore, and I can't imagine that this kid is really thoughtful at a young age.

Li Liehuo knew that the people of this merchant were not good for him repeatedly, although they were innocent of death, but compared to other countries that have always been unfavorable to the Cangyan Empire, this Fengyue Empire was more threatening to himself and the Cangyan Country, one was the Fengyue Imperial Family who was eyeing his own Yanshen bloodline, and the other was a small merchant who had offended him, and it was still clear who valued and who was light on Li Liehuo.

Their only hope is that they don't want to see the last bloodline of their family slaughtered, anyway, I, Li Liehuo, can't do such a cruel thing, so it's better to be a favor, and let them and the Fengyue royal family come out from this matter.

Hearing this, Li Liehuo couldn't help but think of what Lieyangtian had said that the purpose of Fengbai Gongzi and their trip to the Cangyan Empire was to discuss the matter of fire ore trading with our country, and Lieyangtian had no intention of handing over the mining rights of the fire ore to the hands of Fengyue Kingdom, so he never agreed.

Li Liehuo immediately asked, "Did you and Feng Bai Gongzi talk about the fire ore business in their business?"

So that's the case, Li Liehuo suddenly realized when he heard these words: the guys in the Fengyue Empire saw that the lord of the country did not agree to the business of fire ore, so they turned their attention to the merchant, trying to take the power of the merchant to mine fire ore as already owned, so that not only can he get the mining right of the merchant, but also slowly control the merchant, one of the top ten nobles in Yandu, which will definitely be quite beneficial for the future intelligence collection of our country, and at the same time, it can also use the merchant as the stronghold of Yandu to slowly infiltrate the interior of our Cangyan Empire, which is simply killing two birds with one stone, and it is really a good means!

Li Liehuo thought for a while and said, "Are you so relieved to cooperate with the Fengyue Empire, aren't you afraid that they will slowly infiltrate your merchants and finally control your people, thus turning you into a Fengyue puppet existing in the Cangyan Empire?"

"This matter is that I, Li Liehuo, came to Yandu as the messenger of the God of Fire, you saw that I was treated so courteously by the people and the lord of Yandu, and I was afraid that our Li family would replace your merchant and become one of the top ten nobles in Yandu, without the name of the top ten nobles, there would be no benefit for your merchant in the future, so you had a bold idea that you wanted to assassinate me!"

Li Liehuo looked at the four people below, and then said: "So you are ready to do it, but at this time, it was discovered by the people of Fengyue Country who often have business dealings, so you reached a cooperation, and the plan is still the same, and at the same time, the people of Fengyue Country will not take this matter out, but the price is that you merchants must listen to them in the future, otherwise you will shake this matter out, right?" n!~!
