1202: Horse bandits
At this time, the atmosphere in the business alliance was not very good.
Qiao Anyi was also there, with a little haggard in his expression, the heads of the five major merchants such as the Nie family and the Wu family were all there, and their expressions were not very good at this time.
Old Taijun Yan looked at Fu Yuanling, "President, almost all the caravans of the entire Shang Alliance have been ambushed, this is not an accident. The old man has inquired, only the caravan of our merchant alliance has an accident, which is obviously aimed at the merchant alliance. Speaking of this, his face was heavy, "Especially the Yan family, which has suffered heavy losses, and the caravan that transported medicinal materials to the west of Linyu Zhiguan has been robbed three times before and after." ”
Fu Yuanling nodded, "Don't worry, since it is a matter of the Shang Alliance, you will definitely do your best to find justice." In this way, let's tell Qi Ruozhong about the details of their losses, and I am going to set up an escort team and hire masters at a high price, what do you think? ”
Old Man Jiang was the first to agree, "Yes, after all, this matter is related to the future of the Business Alliance and everyone's interests, so we have to unite." ”
In the past two years, after several of them have added the business alliance, they have made a lot of money, and now the king of Chu and the king of Wu are equally divided, and no one can say the future in the future.
Even if you suffer a loss now, you can't just quit the business alliance, so how can you gain a foothold in Shangjing in the future?
Unless they take refuge in King Wu.
However, since they have already stood on the side of the king of Chu and go to the king of Wu again, they are afraid that the king of Wu will not trust them, so they simply go all the way to the dark.
Fight for it.
"Yes, we can, but we're too passive to always wait for others to come to us for trouble. President, it's best if we can take the initiative and catch the people behind the scenes, so that we can prevent future troubles. Old Man Yi said.
"yes, how can you swallow this breath, these bastards really think we can't do anything about them? Just so many of us, a family can stone them to death if they take out a sum of silver! "Old Man Nie hasn't been so annoyed for many years, and this time it's really too deceitful.
Lu Chengyi looked at Qiao Anyi beside him and said in a low voice, "President Qiao, what do you think?" ”
Qiao Anyi was obviously a little distracted, and when he heard Lu Chengyi's words, he came back to his senses, and then said: "I came back from the northwest and got some different news, you may be a little interested." ”
Fu Yuanling looked at Qiao Anyi, listening to what he meant, he should have stayed in the northwest for a short time.
Speaking of which, Qi Ruozhong also mentioned to him that Qiao Anyi rarely came to the business alliance.
"President Joe, you say." Lu Chengyi said.
"This time, I stayed in the northwest for half a year, and everyone should not have seen me much in the business alliance. During this period in the northwest, in addition to paving the way for the merchants of our merchant alliance in the northwest, I heard that a group of horse bandits suddenly appeared in the northwest recently, coming and going like the wind, specializing in robbing passing caravans, and many caravans in the northwest also suffered. I wonder if the caravans in our business alliance are also targeted by such horse bandits? Qiao Anyi said.
Fu Yuanling lowered his eyes slightly, the Northwest horse bandits?
Thinking of the missing Mei Chengchuan again, it won't be such a coincidence, right?
However, the Mei family was born as a bandit outside the gate......
Fu Yuanling naturally can't talk nonsense without evidence now, listening to everyone's discussions, obviously Qiao Anyi's words made everyone find common ground, and the more they talked, the more they had common ground, the more and more common ground was kicked out.
Obviously, this horse bandit is very likely to be the one who robbed the Shang Alliance!
It's just that Qiao Anyi said that he was in the northwest, but this group of people went anywhere, and they didn't just commit murder and robbery in the northwest.
"Could it be that they are in the northwest just to disturb everyone's sight and prevent people from associating the people who robbed our business alliance with this group of people in the northwest?" Mrs. Yan spoke.
"There is such a possibility, but we can't assert it, we still have to find out."
"How do you check this? Unless they meet that group of people again, it is not easy for them to catch people without a trace. ”
"You have to have a careful plan, and you can't mess around, after all, those people are not easy to get along with, and they are very cruel."
Fu Yuanling listened to everyone's gossip and discussion, and finally said: "Then let's settle down first, let's recruit a group of masters to escort the caravan first, and I suggest that in the past six months, the caravan of the business alliance should try not to walk alone, and the important goods should not only have their own guards, but it is best to hire the guards of the dart bureau." Of course, if it is not an important cargo, the caravan should be suspended until the matter is clarified, so as not to have unnecessary losses and casualties. ”
This time, the Fu family's caravan did not have an accident, so Fu Yuanling would get the news a little later.
From now on, only the caravan of the Fu family is safe in the entire business alliance, and there may not be no intention of the people behind the scenes to sow discord.
By the time everyone has basically settled on things, it's not too early.
Fortunately, Fu Yuanling's decision was decisive, without the slightest drag, about the fact that the Fu family was not attacked, Fu Yuanling said his conjecture, everyone still thought it was very reasonable, but he didn't suspect anything else.
After everyone dispersed, Qiao Anyi stayed until the end and looked at Fu Yuanling, "I think I still have to go to the northwest to check." ”
Fu Yuanling looked at him, "Brother Qiao, are you going to move the business back to the northwest?" ”
Qiao Anyi's face froze, he did have this plan, he didn't know how to face her now, and he stayed in Shangjing to find a way out.
Now that the entire Qiao family is in their own hands, the foundation of the Qiao family is in the northwest after all, and in fact, going back to the northwest is the right thing to do.
"Princess......
"Brother Qiao, no matter what you decide, I hope you take it seriously and not act rashly." Fu Yuanling sighed, "I'll go first, I'll have someone check on the northwest side." ”
Qiao Anyi looked at Fu Yuanling's back and retracted his gaze for a long time.
If he stayed in Shangjing, Zhao Yunniang would be like crazy now, who knows what dirty things he will say, he wants to divorce his wife, but as soon as he mentioned it, Zhao Yunniang hanged himself, he thought she was scaring him, so he didn't take it to heart, how did he know that she was real, if it wasn't for her mother to take a look, maybe she would really die.
Such a person will suffer others when he lives, and others will suffer after he dies.
Qiao Anyi is now in a dilemma, thinking about it or going back to the northwest.
When he returned to the northwest and stayed away from Shangjing, he was naturally not afraid of Zhao Yunniang's toss.
Moreover, the horse bandits that suddenly appeared in the northwest also attacked his uncle's horse farm, and now the northwest is rumoring, and the Qiao and Wei families support each other, and of course the Qiao family has to go back to the northwest at this time.
The only thing Qiao Anyi can't worry about is his sister, but he really has no face to take care of his sister for him.
Thinking of Eryu, Qiao Anyi also had a headache.
