Zhan Xiaoxiao also heard some news that Qin Tai wanted to know from Furong's sister Wang Guihua, and Huiyan Town was a demarcation point. There are two small roads leading to Yumen Pass out of Huiyan Town, connected to an official road, and there are three roads to Yumen Pass. Yumen Pass is the critical point of the border pass, and leaving Yumen Pass is equivalent to leaving the national border at that time, so the inventory there is very strict. But as a businessman who often walks this trade route, the inventory of Yumen Pass is not terrible. They have to worry about how to cross the desert and the territory of Xiangma, as long as they get to the Yumen Pass, they will be safe. The official road looks peaceful and easy to walk, but it is full of dangers. People who return to Yanzhen know that from Huiyanzhen to Yumen Pass, they have to cross two deserts, one large and one small, and they have to cross a no-man's land. On the road, there were eight or nine bandits who either occupied the mountain as kings or blocked the road and robbed them irregularly. Although the two trails are a little more difficult to walk, one trail is much closer, and the other trail only needs to cross a desert.

The two paths are controlled by two stronger ringing horses, so their territory. As long as the merchants honestly pack the quantity of goods and pay enough "fare" according to the quantity, they will not go too far. But taking the official road is different, not only asking for money and goods, but also asking for everyone's lives. So everyone chooses to take the small road, preferring to spend some money rather than earn this small amount of money. The pot head and the guys in Huiyan Town know this, so they will persuade the merchants to take the path. The path is one left and one right, and the path on the left is relatively close, but the road is more difficult to walk, and it belongs to the territory of the "Black Widow" of Hibiki. The road on the right is farther, and there is a large desert to cross, but there are more people walking, because their leader is the "Red Spider". It is said that the "Black Widow" was a woman who married a husband who made a ringing horse, and later formed the current stockade. After her husband died, the "Black Widow" became the boss and was more upright, but she did not allow her subordinates to bully women. There are too many rules for "Black Widow", so everyone is reluctant to deal with her. "Red Spider" is a mysterious person, and even few of his subordinates know his true face. Everyone who has seen him says that he is dressed in red and even wears a spider-shaped mask on his face. However, this person is easier to speak, as long as the money is enough, if the merchant is more polite, he will charge a little less next time. Once a merchant sent a beautiful woman to the "Red Spider", the "Red Spider" was overjoyed, exempting the merchant from "filial piety" this time. Since then, some big merchants have sent beauties and antiques to the "Red Spider" from time to time, and the "Red Spider" has generously let them pass. In contrast, the "black widow" has many rules, such as not carrying or selling weapons and iron to foreign countries, abducting women, buying and selling young children, and so on. So gradually, the business of "Red Spider" surpassed that of "Black Widow" and became the big winner on this road.

Zhan Xiaoxiao also learned that the "Red Spider" intentionally or unintentionally wanted to annex the "Black Widow", not only for the territory of the "Black Widow", but also for people. It is said that "Black Widow" is not only beautiful herself, but also has a group of female soldiers who are loyal to her. Some of the ringing horses who are willing to stay with the "Black Widow" are left behind in order to be able to get the "Black Widow" or her subordinates. The people and territory of the "Red Spider" who want the "Black Widow" are almost all known to those who return to Yan Town. Over the years, in order to get the "Black Widow", the "Red Spider" has used all kinds of means, such as robbing business, winning over people, slandering the "Black Widow", luring the "Black Widow's" subordinates, creating trouble, and so on. But the "Black Widow" still goes her own way, and if her business is not good, she goes to the official road to do business, but she does not bow to the "Red Spider". The people below also fought several times, each with damage, but there were no major problems.

Sister Furong also told Zhan Xiaoxiao that the relationship between the two parties has become tense again recently. The "Red Spider" wants people to let out the rumors, and whoever is better with the "Black Widow" or does business, the "Red Spider" will cut off all relations with them. Not only were they not allowed to cross his territory, but they were to rob once they saw it. A merchant had done business with the "Black Widow" several times, and because of this, the "Red Spider" not only did not accept the merchant's "purchase fee" to cross the border three times higher than others, but also robbed people and goods together. The reason is to set an example for all businessmen, and whoever chooses the "Black Widow" is the enemy of the "Red Spider". Therefore, some shops in Huiyan Town are reluctant to do some merchants' business because they choose to go out from the "Black Widow". The "Red Spider" is aggressive, and the shops make it clear that the merchants choose to give up or turn their backs on the "Black Widow". It won't be long before everyone will no longer rely on "Black Widow", and "Black Widow" will lose their existing territory and advantages. At that time, the government, rivals, and businessmen will force the "black widow" to hand over the territory, and without the territory, there will be no capital to support their subordinates. Without the support of his subordinates, "Black Widow" can only be bullied by "Red Spider". What a powerful serial scheme, such a powerful poisonous plan to clear the wilderness.

Qin Tai listened to everyone's introduction, especially after Zhan Xiaoxiao, and thought about it for a long time. Finally spoke: "Is it clear to everyone?" That's the way it is. Now we have to make a decision, is it to help Black Widow'? Or against Black Widow? Or is it to remain neutral? If we were ordinary doctors, we could stay out of the world and just do our own business. But we're not, we're here to handle cases. The Northwest Rebellion seems to have no clue, but we stumbled upon a clue. The so-called Northwest Rebellion was actually a conspiracy to divide the country, and they wanted to use the ignorant common people to try to gain independence here. The Taoist temple incident confirms three points, first, they participated in the rebellion. Second, they are a group of organized, premeditated actions. Third, they not only have a clear division of labor but also have a certain sphere of influence. The man finally revealed his identity, and he was one of Black Widow's. The other party knew this, but still took advantage of them. It can be seen that they are not friends of the 'Black Widow', and even if they are not the enemies of the 'Black Widow', they are not afraid of the 'Black Widow'. Apart from the power of the government, there are few more powerful civil organizations here than the 'Black Widow'. If we want to deal with this group of people, we must have our own strength. We clearly can't get the power of the government, and after the three chiefs know about me, it is a great blessing that they don't want our lives. Since we can't use the official power, we can only rely on the power of the people. 'Black Widow' and 'Red Spider', we have to use one. Once you've won them over, increase their power and help us deal with our opponents, or lure out this mysterious one. ”

The old drunkard said, "Yes, this is our way out. Foreign forces can't intervene at all, and the official forces in the local forces can't use them, only these bandits. In fact, not all of these robbers are bad people, and some of them are forced out by the government. In the hearts of some ordinary people, robbers are sometimes more humane than people in the government, more like their relatives. Therefore, we must use these people and persuade them to do things anyway and become a righteous person who really does practical things for the local people. As long as the rebellion is quelled and the culprit is found, we can ask the court to give them a name, a legal identity. When the time comes, they will no longer be robbers that everyone shouts and beats, and they will not have to hide in the shadows, but they can come out openly and tell everyone who they are. This is the greatest wish of all robbers and their families, and I am sure they will be tempted. ”

Qin Tai said: "So who are we going to choose as the breakthrough?" Is it the more powerful 'Red Spider'? Or is it the 'Black Widow' who is a bit of a downhill now? They all have their own advantages and disadvantages. ”

Zhan Xiaoxiao asked, "Xianggong, no, it's official time, I should call you Lord." My lord, what are the advantages and disadvantages of both sides? "Zhan Xiaoxiao and Qin Tai have an agreement, and they are still subordinate and subordinate during working hours, and they are usually husband and wife.

After Qin Tai glanced at his wife, he said, "The current situation is out of balance. The Red Spider is a bit proud and arrogant because of its strengths. That's their shortcoming, and if we offered to work with them, they might be reluctant or demanding. Besides, while they force people to make decisions by doing so, it also affects their own reputations. Some people will know what the 'red spider' is and know their disdainful behavior, so as to alienate or guard against the 'red spider'. Judging from the long-term situation, if the 'Red Spider' can't eat the 'Black Widow' at once, the 'Red Spider' will be in great trouble. Everyone will follow suit, and in the future, the 'Red Spider' will be forced to step down by others. On the other hand, if the 'Black Widows' hold on and do not fall or be annexed, then they will become stronger and become the biggest force on the road. That's the respective strengths and weaknesses of both of them. ”

Zhan Xiaoxiao immediately said, "Then you mean to cooperate with 'Black Widow'?" Are you bullish on 'Black Widow'? ”

Qin Tai said slowly after a while: "Yes, I am optimistic about 'Black Widow'. First, they have rules than the Red Spider, which means that they know how to restrain their subordinates and think long-term. There is a big picture, and there are also lofty ideals. Second, many of their rules are for the common people, so they should be more just. Third, their leader is a woman, a woman can convince everyone and persevere, which shows that this woman is not simple. Such a woman will definitely persevere as long as she does not suffer a devastating blow. The 'Red Spider' came up with this kind of desperate plan, which shows that they are already poor in donkey skills, and there are no masters. Therefore, the final victor should be 'Black Widow', and after this turmoil, 'Black Widow' will be even stronger. So I chose the 'Black Widows', and only they have the possibility of dealing with our true enemies. ”
