"Cong Shu, Tianlong, I will not force you in this matter, if you want, we will work together to revitalize Yanyun County and make it prosperous, so that the people can live a good life, if you don't want to, I understand, you can leave at any time, you can go anywhere, I will give you a sum of money that is enough to live and live." Xiao Chen has always been straightforward when talking to his own people.

"Boss, this is not a casual remark, when he was in Nine Creek City, he also told us such things, we don't want to go, he is not happy...... So you don't have to worry about him going back on his word, the boss is not a good person, but he will never deceive people...... Outsiders are excluded. Ye Baiqing said.

"Boss, Cong Shu thinks that since the emperor has called you back, then you have to go back." Liu Cong's statement has already expressed his attitude.

"Oh? Why? Xiao Chen asked.

"Because we can't rebel openly yet." Liu Congshu either didn't speak, or as soon as he spoke, he was shocked.

"Nonsense, who said we were going to rebel?" Chen Jisheng touched his beard and smiled, "Go on." ”

"If the boss doesn't go back, it will be a blatant rebellion! Even if the emperor can't mobilize a large army to clean it up now, if he blocks Yanyun Pass and all the sea transportation channels, then what will we do with the mutual market in northern Xinjiang? Once the northern tribes are discredited and the war breaks out, we will definitely die if we are attacked in the north and south. ”

It's clear and clear.

And with Xiao Chen's current strength, in fact, he doesn't have to wait for the northern Xinjiang tribe to attack, and Li Wanjiang doesn't have to send any troops from other places, as long as tens of thousands of soldiers and horses from Yanyun Pass and Wolong Pass are dispatched, he can't deal with it.

Therefore, neither north nor south can openly become enemies with them at present, and can only skillfully maneuver between the two sides, so that they can temporarily survive in the cracks.

"But what if, as Bai Qing said, the boss goes back and is detained by Li Wanjiang, and another governor is sent?" Lin Yue asked.

"Hehe, the current situation in Yanyun County, except for our boss, who can control it? Not to mention sending a governor, even if the emperor comes in person, it is useless. Liu Cong recounted.

"Then what if he kills the boss directly?" Lin Yue asked again.

That's what the big guys are most worried about.

"If you kill the boss, Yan Yun will die, and no one can save it this time! Wanyan Pingqiu and Queen Moro are both handsome for a while, how can they sit back and watch the changes? I'm afraid that as soon as the boss here dies, their combined army will immediately gather and head south! Completely occupy the entire Yanyun County. Liu Congshu is quite clear about the situation.

The reason why Wanyan Pingqiu and the tribes in Northern Xinjiang formed an alliance with Xiao Chen was that they wanted to use Yanyun County as a buffer place, and then solve the current crisis of their tribes through mutual markets, and slowly develop and strengthen their own strength.

In other words, they had already placed all their bets on Xiao Chen.

So as soon as Xiao Chen dies, they will go south directly without hesitation!

And this time he is also famous, because he has made a life and death pact with Xiao Chen.

If you dare to kill my brother, you must be.

They are not fighting alone, don't forget that there are Zhuge Xiaosheng, Li Tanhua and them, as soon as Xiao Chen dies, they will immediately turn against each other and unite with the northern Xinjiang tribes to deal with the Great Zhou.

No matter what success or failure, it will give Li Wanjiang a heavy blow!

If Li Wanjiang was a smart person, he should not act recklessly.

But what if he loses his mind and goes crazy, and he will kill the boss regardless of three-seven-twenty-one?

Then it depends on the boss's own ability...... And luck.

Boss's luck is always good, right?

"Oh, I didn't see it, Cong Shu, you guy really has the potential to rebel if you don't say anything." Ye Baiqing said with a smile.

"Leopards come out of wilts." Lin Yue nodded yes, he hadn't seen it before.

"Well, I said that Cong Shu is a talent, right?" Chen Jisheng said that he was very pleased, the old man would not look at the wrong person!

"Bai Qing, you are going to reply to the emperor and his old man, just say that I suddenly fell ill, was bedridden, and couldn't go back for the time being...... But as long as you can barely get out of bed, you will crawl back immediately! "Xiao Chen has already decided to go back, but not now.

"Then our emperor is only afraid that Long Yan will be furious." Ye Baiqing said with a smile.

"He can't die!" Xiao Chen can now openly slander Li Wanjiang, this feeling is really not too cool.

Li Shi, the king of Jiangdong, also sent a secret letter and persuaded Xiao Chen to go back.

In addition, Zhu Xiaochuan, Wu Zicheng, Wang Anbang, Ma Mingwu, and even Chen Wenqi, Lu Jing and others all wrote to him, and they all persuaded him to go back.

Of course, there are also some top-secret letters, which were sent by Xiao Chen's brothers who stayed in Fengyang City and the palace, and the contents should not be published.

The brothers who purchased grain from Myanmar also sent a message saying that a large amount of grain had been transported to Minzhou County, and that it was being loaded and shipped soon.

But it also mentioned that the current situation in Minzhou County is tense, so the cost of hiring a boat has almost tripled!

Moreover, this grain route may not be open in the future, and it may have to be transported from the port of Jiangnan County or Jiangdong County, but in that case, the road will be even farther away, and there will be more local deductions, and the losses will be more serious.

This is not counting, the main reason is that there is a shortage of food in all parts of the Great Zhou now, especially the military food is quite scarce, and the king of Fengyang led an army of 100,000 to Minzhou County in the south, and grain and grass are also being collected along the road, so we are afraid that our grain will not be intercepted if it does not reach Jiangnan Jiangdong.

Chen Jisheng has already ordered someone to reply to the letter, asking them to suspend the purchase of grain from Burma, and they can't spend a lot of money, and finally give it to Da Zhou for nothing, right?

Zhao Gongming, who was far away in Sichuan, also sent a letter, saying that several tea factories had been set up there, and when the new tea came down in spring next year, it would be processed into tea bricks and shipped immediately.

Duanmu Nanfeng sent a letter saying that a large number of supplies had been hoarded and would be sent in a steady stream.

Shi Mingtao also wrote to him, saying that the goods would not go through Yanyun Pass in the future, and would be loaded and shipped directly from Haining Bay, which was not only fast, but also greatly increased the volume of goods.

But the three of them are all worried about the current situation in Yanyun County, if the emperor orders the blockade of Yanyun County's sea and land passages, then we will not be able to transport these things anyway.

If these materials can't be transported, and the goods exchanged for from northern Xinjiang can't be transported, it will be very bad.

So the current situation is generally both gratifying and sad.

There's another sad thing.

After a day's meeting, Xiao Chen, who was physically and mentally exhausted, was about to fall asleep, but Duan Ling'er slipped in quietly and sat at the head of his bed for a long time without speaking.

"Grandma, what's wrong with you!" Xiao Chen was going to die of sorrow.

Please, let me get some sleep first, okay?

Even if the sky falls, please help me with it first, sister.

"The chief helmsman has sent for you, saying he wants to see you." Duan Ling'er said softly.

"Alas......" Xiao Chen sighed, it should come, it will always come.

"It's Qian Yunfei, the master of the Vermilion Bird Hall, I said that you were asleep, but he insisted that I come, and said that I ...... Brother, I'm not a little spy of the Tianxuan Society, and I don't want to leave. Duan Ling'er also sighed softly.

"Who let you go?" Xiao Chen was taken aback when he heard this, and his sleepiness disappeared.
