Kong Rui thought that Zhao Xiuying really had a task, but thinking of what Zhao Xiuying said at the time, he was also worried that there would be any accident if Zhang Yuanzhi escorted these gold and silver properties back to the mining valley alone, after all, although the forces in the other mountains in this mountain area were ostensibly obeying Zhao Er in the mining valley, they also wanted to fight for more benefits for themselves, how could they not be blushing in the face of so much gold and silver property?

Thinking of this, Kong Rui had no choice but to say to Zhao Xiuying: "Miss Zhao, although the property in these boxes is owned by Brother Chen of Black Tiger Mountain, since they have been brought to the mining valley, they must also be divided into the mining valley, so they are very important to the entire mining valley. ”

Zhao Xiuying was worried that she would not be able to come out again once she returned to the mining valley, but she also understood the importance of this batch of belongings, so she hesitated a little at the moment.

Zhang Yuanzhi was thoughtful, and he already knew that Zhao Er had sent someone to find a way out of iron ore, and soon guessed what Zhao Xiuying was worried about, so he walked out of the tent and said to Zhao Xiuying: "Miss Zhao don't worry, we just need to go back to the vicinity of the valley, and it will definitely be safe when we get to that area, and we will come out again." ”

As soon as Kong Rui heard Zhang Yuanzhi say this, he immediately guessed that Zhang Yuanzhi also had some other ideas when he came out of the mountain this time, so he was silent and did not speak; Zhao Xiuying said yes in a row, her idea is also simple, if Kong Rui and Zhang Yuanzhi can prove it, she would also like to stay outside for a few more days, so she agreed immediately.

Sure enough, on the way back to the mine valley for Kong Rui and the others, from time to time, there were armed forces on other hills who saw a heavy cart passing by, and immediately sent people over, hoping to get a piece of the pie, but as soon as these people saw Zhao Xiuying escorting these two carts, they didn't dare to come and rob them, and went back after being polite. Kong Rui and Zhang Yuanzhi were also happy, and they returned to the vicinity of the mouth of the mine valley all the way.

Zhao Xiuying and Zhang Yuanzhi saw that they had seen the emirate city, and knew that it was very safe, so they decided not to move forward, Zhang Yuanzhi gave some instructions to his brothers, and then they let them escort the two carts on the road; Zhao Xiuying glanced at Zhang Yuanzhi who was staying, and called two cronies to stay and follow him, and sent the remaining seven people back.

When the people saw that the cart had entered the city of the chieftain, they turned around and walked out of the mountain.

Along the way, Zhao Xiuying also introduced two of her cronies to Kong Rui and Zhang Yuanzhi, one is called Sun Meng and the other is called Wang Lin, both of whom are shrewd and strong in martial arts.

Kong Rui thought that Zhang Yuanzhi and Zhao Xiuying both had tasks, but they didn't know what they wanted to do, and this time there were a lot fewer people, so he asked him: "Second Brother Zhang, Miss Zhao, what are the tasks of the two of you when you go out of the mountain?"

Zhao Xiuying looked at Zhang Yuanzhi on the side, and did not hide it: "Our mine valley has been blocked by the Qiqian people for too long, and many materials are lacking, I just want to go out this time to see if there is any opportunity to find a bigger channel, and I can get more salt and cloth at a time." ”

Kong Rui naturally knew some of the situation in the mining valley, and also knew that this matter was a major event at the moment, so he nodded and said: "This is indeed very important, no wonder Miss Zhao wants to go out in person." ”

Zhang Yuanzhi was a little surprised by the purpose of Zhao Xiuying's trip, he was thinking about how such a big girl could do this kind of thing, but he said to Kong Rui: "We have just arrived, so I went out of the mountain to look around to see the situation, and it is always good to know more about the situation." ”

Kong Rui naturally knew about this situation, so he nodded.

Zhao Xiuying said on the side: "What is there to know here? If you want to know something, just ask me directly, I know everything." ”

Zhang Yuanzhi smiled in his heart, thinking: If you want to know, how about going to find some big salt and iron merchants? In fact, he really wanted to contact some salt and iron merchants who had contacted him before to help the mine valley solve their current difficulties, after all, the people of Heihu Mountain had just arrived, and they still needed to make some contributions to the mine valley; and they had some network resources in this area when they were in Heihu Mountain before, but the needs were different at that time, this time Zhang Yuanzhi also wanted to contact those network resources again, which can be regarded as some credit for the neutrality of the mine valley, and also lay a good foundation for long-term foothold and cooperation in the future。

In the afternoon of this day, Kong Rui and his party of five people soon arrived in Qingshui Town, and when they saw that there was nothing abnormal in the four places, Kong Rui thought of the inn where they stayed when they came, and only heard Zhang Yuanzhi say: "Brother Lin, this time we need to find a better inn to live in." ”

Kong Rui was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted, but Zhao Xiuying didn't know what was going on, and asked, "Why is that?

Zhang Yuanzhi smiled and said: "Miss Zhao doesn't know, now you are looking for those businessmen, how can they live in those very poor inns? And Miss Zhao herself doesn't like the environment in the very bad inns." ”

He naturally knew that Kong Rui had a lot of money and things on him, and of course there was no problem with staying in a good inn; Zhao Xiuying thought about it and was about to speak, when suddenly Sun Meng walked up to Zhao Xiuying and whispered to her: "Miss, we don't know what the task is this time, and we didn't bring money out." ”

Zhao Xiuying was stunned for a moment, glared at Sun Meng and Wang Lin with dissatisfied eyes, and then stopped talking more, and planned to follow Kong Rui and Zhang Yuanzhi to be dealt with by them; Kong Rui's ear power was far beyond ordinary people, and when he heard Sun Meng's words, he couldn't help but feel speechless for a while at Zhao Xiuying's actions.

Everyone found the best inn in the town, and as soon as they entered the inn, Kong Rui and they found that there were indeed a lot more people in the inn, presumably many outside businessmen learned about the situation in this area, and they also came to inquire about the news, hoping not to miss this opportunity to make money.

Kong Rui and the others also ignored them for the time being, and said to the shopkeeper: "The shopkeeper, give us five upper rooms." ”

The shopkeeper's face smiled and said, "Guest officer, I'm really sorry, we only have three rooms left now, and I ask the guest officer to forgive me." ”

Thinking of the possible reasons, Kong Rui and the others didn't ask much, and asked for three upper rooms and moved in, Zhao Xiuying's room was next door to Sun Meng and Wang Lin's room, but Kong Rui and Zhang Yuanzhi's room were separated by two.

Kong Rui originally planned to go to Qingshui Town, so he left first, leaving Zhao Xiuying and Zhang Yuanzhi to complete their tasks by themselves, but seeing that Zhao Xiuying acted hastily, had no plan, and was informal, he was worried that she would cause trouble if she couldn't do it, so he hesitated a little in his heart; Zhang Yuanzhi and Zhao Xiuying tried their best to keep them, and Kong Rui had to decide to stay first, planning to see the situation first.

At dinnertime, Kong Rui and the others also went to the dining hall below to eat with other guests, only to see that the rest of the people at the table looked cautious, and they all lowered their voices when talking about things, Kong Rui could naturally hear the conversation of many people, and he obviously heard that the rest of the people were cautious, even if they lowered their voices, they were all cautious, for fear of being known by others; 。

In this environment, Zhao Xiuying, a woman with thick lines, felt depressed and abnormal, and wanted to have a seizure several times, but fortunately, Kong Rui reacted very quickly, and saw that her expression changed, and even made her look calm down a little; Zhang Yuanzhi also felt that it was not good, so he hurriedly beckoned the guy to settle the account, and everyone walked out of the inn.

As soon as he left the inn, Kong Rui said to Zhao Xiuying: "Miss Zhao, on the one hand, we are looking for some salt and iron merchants who can open up the channels of the mine valley to the outside world, and on the other hand, we are also going to find out if there are other conspiracies of the Qianqian people, so we must also listen to the opinions of the rest of the people on this matter." Most of the people sitting in this canteen are some businessmen, and they should be the people we need to contact, and everyone is right to be careful, so I still hope that Miss Zhao can control her temper. ”

Although Zhao Xiuying felt some truth in her heart, her mouth was still very hard, and she said: "Looking at those big men's families, they are sneaky one by one, where do they look like doing things?"

Zhang Yuanzhi couldn't help frowning on the side, Kong Rui also felt that it must be a mistake to let her come out to do this kind of thing, so he had to explain a few more words to her.
