Chapter 486: The Talks Collapsed
The mules rushed to the nameless valley overnight.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw his eldest brother sitting on the edge of the fire, staring at the flames with his chin in one hand, and holding an iron chisel in the other, and skewering a few chicken wings on the edge of the fire.
It's just that the chicken wings have been baked, and he didn't even notice it.
The throbbing of the firelight on his face rendered his face cloudy.
"Master Chu, the chicken wings are paste. ”
He called softly.
Zhang Chu came back to his senses at this time, and beckoned to him with a smile: "Here, sit down." ”
The mule nodded, and moved a smooth stump to sit by the fire.
Zhang Chu glanced at the chicken wings in his hand, pretended not to see the roasted side, and stuffed this string of chicken wings into the hands of the mule, and then picked up a string of chicken wings that had been marinated a long time ago from the wooden barrel next to him, and inserted it next to the fire.
The mule looked at the paste chicken wings in his hand and decided to find a way to divert the attention of the eldest brother.
"Master Chu, Xiliang Warrior Building has made a move on Yanbei Seven Killings, and the soldiers are divided into three ways, it seems that they are running to leave this group of Yanbei Seven Killings!"
Zhang Chu: "When?"
Mule: "Before nightfall." ”
Zhang Chu calculated the time, that point was the time when Xie Xiaoqing went back from him.
Is it a coincidence?
Or is Xie Junxing waiting for his reply?
Zhang Chu raised his eyes and pondered for a moment, and said, "I'll talk about this matter later...... What I asked you to check, do you have any results?"
"There it is!"
The mule hurriedly responded: "As you expected, there is indeed something that we don't know about in Xiliangzhou. ”
Zhang Chu picked up a small brush and dipped it in some sesame oil and brushed it on the chicken wings: "What's the matter?"
The mule looked at him and said, "Yesterday, Wang Zhenyi set off to come to our Xuanbei Prefecture, but was blocked back by your senior brother. ”
Zhang Chu took the hand of the small brush and turned his head to look at him: "Who are you talking about?"
He heard it clearly.
Just wanted to make sure again.
The mule said firmly: "Your senior brother, 'soul chaser' Liang Yuanchang. ”
He understands the character of his eldest brother.
I'm afraid it's getting harder and harder to repay this favor......
Zhang Chu put down the small brush, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
This direction of events was indeed unexpected by him.
But compared to this change, he paid more attention to another matter: "I ordered you to send more people to Xiliang to control Wang Zhenyi's whereabouts, why did my senior brother block Wang Zhenyi back, I haven't received any news yet." ”
The mule was excited, and he put down the chicken wings in his hand and was about to stand up.
Zhang Chu seemed to have expected his reaction, pressed his shoulder with one palm, and said lightly, "Sit and say." ”
The mule swallowed a mouthful of saliva secretly, and said stubbornly: "Master Chu, I sent an additional group of people to go over at your order, but Xiliangzhou is not our own territory after all, they needed a little time to explore in the past, this is also to blame me, I never expected Wang Zhenyi's reaction to be so fast......"
Zhang Chu interrupted his defense expressionlessly: "If you want to find a reason, you can always find it." ”
"You can give yourself a chance. ”
"I can give you a chance too. ”
"But the enemy won't give us a chance. ”
"The enemy will only wait for us to make mistakes!
"Who is Wang Zhenyi?"
"What do sand pirates eat?"
"What if he really let him enter Xuanbei Prefecture, and he doesn't come to me and goes straight to Taiping Town?"
Zhang Chu said lightly.
But the mule suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
He broke free of Zhang Chu's hand, stood up and said loudly: "Helper, my subordinates know their mistakes, there will never be a next time, if there is a next time, if you don't do it, I will break it myself!"
Zhang Chu glanced at him and said softly: "Don't bluff me with big words, brother, even if you do something wrong, I won't really do anything to you, but if there is a next time, you will be the master of your Houtu Hall in a down-to-earth manner, and I will find another person to take over the affairs of Fengyun Tower." ”
His tone remained flat, neither cold nor angry.
But just because of his blandness, let the mule know that the eldest brother was serious and didn't joke with him.
But it's true that he didn't do it well.
really let Wang Zhen enter Xuanbei Prefecture unknowingly, and the consequences are indeed very serious......
The mules didn't complain!
Zhang Chu didn't look at him again.
He picked up the tongs and gently flicked the firewood in the fire pit, and said, "Send two more groups of people to Xiliangzhou, expand with the previous way of the Blood Shadow Guard, and allocate 100,000 taels of silver to them every month...... Don't ask about the accounts, just the results!"
The mule sat on the stump, and whispered with some concern: "Master Chu, will it get out of control if you do this!"
He single-handedly created the Blood Shadow Guard, and led the Blood Shadow Guard from a grass platform team composed of idle people in society to an elite spy who can now execute the capture of the five rank powerhouses, and no one knows Fengyun Tower better than him!
Fengyun Lou is now taking the high-precision route, and all the secret agents are selected from the huge spies of the former Blood Shadow Guard, not to mention their abilities, they are all first-class!
But it is precisely because they are so capable and lack the object of comparison that the twelve secret envoys are all arrogant masters!
The best example is Hongyun, when she first arrived at Zhang Chu's side, she even dared to throw her face at Zhang Chu!
Now they can obey because of the various restraint methods inside Fengyun Tower, as well as the pressure he and his eldest brother are pressing on top.
Really let them take root in Xiliangzhou, give them so much power, so much money, don't they have no tigers and monkeys in the mountains to be kings?
Zhang Chu silently stirred the fire.
After a long while, he said, "What do you think of Da Liu?"
The mule was not surprised, and after a little hesitation, he shook his head and said: "Da Liu's temperament is too sincere and too generous to treat people, and he can't do this kind of dirty work!"
"Where's the old cow?"
Mule: "Niu Thirteen is too reckless, he is a good hand at killing him, but he wants to do this job, and within three months, he will have to die on the streets!"
"Then I don't have the right person in my hands. ”
Zhang Chu said helplessly.
The four secret agent groups are already one-third of the strength of Fengyun Tower, which is not trivial, they are not people he absolutely trusts, and it is absolutely impossible for him to hand over such a powerful force that can devour Fengyun Tower.
But Xiliangzhou is not the territory of the Taiping Society after all, separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, transportation and communication are extremely inconvenient, and it is necessary to have a stable person to sit in the town.
The mule pondered for a while, and said, "Otherwise, let Zhang Meng pass, he has a steady temperament and a lively brain, and he will be able to get started soon." ”
"Zhang Meng?"
Zhang Chu wrung his brows: "Mengzi is safe, but Qingyetang's business can't be lost, it's our money bag......"
The mule smiled lowly: "Aren't our Taiping Society and the Northern League going to merge into the Beiping League? Zhang Meng is a good hand at doing business, but compared to Wu Da Shao, he is still far behind, right?"
Baldheads?
He can't even manage himself, how can he still manage so much business in the Beiping League?
However, when the mule mentioned him, Zhang Chu remembered a person.
But the white-headed guy is declining, isn't it inappropriate to leave the henchmen who take care of his daily life now?
After pondering for a moment, Zhang Chu shook his head and said: "This matter will be explained later, you send people over first, and the order to expand, don't give it yet, wait for my order." ”
The mule nodded, "Yes." ”
After a pause, Zhang Chu said again: "Later, I will write a letter, and you will send someone to send it to my senior brother." ”
The mule continued to nod yes, and finally looked at him with some surprise and said, "Master Chu, tonight, Xiliang Warrior Mansion will attack Yanbei Seven Killings, why don't we go over and join in the fun?"
It's not like Big Brother.
Zhang Chu shook his head: "No, this afternoon, I have promised to form an alliance with the Xiliang Warrior Building, it is inconvenient to join in this excitement, you should also pay attention to your actions in the future, try not to touch the people and things related to the Xiliang Warrior Building, the man stands in the world, and he still has to be true to his word." ”
The mule lost his voice in shock: "Alliance?"
Zhang Chu: "For the time being, after defeating the Tianxing Alliance, maybe we will have to fight it out." ”
"Listen to what you mean...... Have we completely collapsed with the Skywalker Alliance?"
