Dai Qin also happened to see Zilong's expression, and mistakenly thought that the two might be a little reluctant, and immediately said: "It's not that the two of you will go for nothing, you will just put on the name of my Dai Qin caravan guard, and I'll hire you at the price of one or two taels of silver a day, okay?"

"One or two?" Wan'er finally understood Zilong's purpose at this time, and said in surprise at the moment.

"Indeed, the two of them are so powerful, if it is one or two a day, it is indeed impossible to match the skills of the two!" Dai Qin said one tael, which was originally a tentative price, at this time, seeing Wan'er like this, he had a turn of inspiration, and his heart was settled, and he said, "That's not as good as ten taels a day, I will enter the Hetao, and it will take at least more than a month to leave the Hetao, and the two of them will have more than three hundred taels of silver just as I walk around! You can also enjoy the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River, but it is a good thing to have the best of both worlds, and you don't have to refuse, right?"

"Three hundred taels?" Wan'er rubbed her chin and said, "Is it me and Brother Long who are three hundred taels each, or are the two of them only three hundred taels combined?"

Dai Qin thought that the two of them had just come down the mountain, so he was so foolish, and he didn't want this white-faced young man to be so shrewd, so he coughed and glanced at Zilong without a trace.

found that Zilong didn't seem to listen to the conversation between the two at all, just kept drinking.

I immediately understood, I was afraid of these two people, the bearded man was responsible for fighting, and the white-faced man was responsible for communication.

At that moment, Dai Qin smiled and said: "I am inviting you two brothers, naturally it is ten taels per day each!

"Yes!" Wan'er nodded, picked up the mare's milk wine, and said, "Then I will treat the boss with a bowl on behalf of my senior brother, thank the boss for his generosity!"

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!" Dai Qin saw that the two agreed, and he also happily lifted the wine bowl, touched it with Wan'er, and drank it all.

The reason why Dai Qin recruited the two into the caravan was for two reasons. First, the merchants traveled all over the place, although he was in the Hetao, but he had the support of the Tianwang faction behind him, so he didn't have to worry too much trouble on the surface, but the Hetao was not a monolith, and there were always people who didn't deal with the Tianwang faction, so he invited so many guards and followers.

It's just that today's dozen or so guards were beaten by Qin Wei's two iron fists and couldn't get up on the ground when they didn't have a stick of incense, but Dai Qin was also frightened. I happened to find out that Zilong and Wan'er were two chicks who had just come down the mountain, and their martial arts were strong, so they immediately recruited them into their caravan and added a safety lock.

And this second point is because of Qin Wei. Although it was just for a small matter such as a table, Dai Qin was afraid that this Qin Wei would be taught a lesson by Zilong, so he didn't dare to trouble Zilong again, but secretly led people to catch up with his caravan.

Based on these two points, Dai Qin would bring Zilong and the others into the caravan no matter what. Anyway, a few hundred taels of silver is only a drop in the bucket for a trader like him who walks the grasslands and the Central Plains, and even if the price is increased by ten times, he can afford it.

At the moment, both sides reached an agreement, and they were both overjoyed. Dai Qin also began to introduce the customs of the Hetao to Zilong and the others, but Wan'er was also extremely smart, and without a trace, she explored some things about the Tianwang faction in the Hetao from this Dai Qin's body.

But this Dai Qin is not an ordinary person, whenever he talks about the Heavenly King Sect, he stops directly, and then changes the topic and continues. Wan'er tried her best, but she only inquired about the location of the main altar of the Heavenly King Sect and the status of the Heavenly King Sect in the Hetao.

No matter how detailed the rest of the information was, Wan'er didn't poke it out of the mouth of this cunning businessman.

At the moment, I couldn't find out anything, and both sides had already achieved their goals, so I took my leave when I was full of wine and food.

Dai Qin told Zilong and the others his room number, and told Zilong and the others to come tomorrow morning, and then they were about to set off towards the Hetao.

Zilong and the others naturally agreed, and then retired. After leaving Dai Qin, the two returned to the room, and when they pushed the door in, they found a tall and fat figure sitting on a stool in the room of the two.

Zilong quickly walked in with Wan'er, covered the door, and then Zilong arched his hand at Qin Wei and said, "Brother Qin, if it weren't for you today, my plan would not have succeeded!"

Qin Wei's arm at this time, where was there still an injured look, seeing Zilong like this, he smiled lightly, and said: "Brother Zilong is also polite! You have the Zizhu Order given by the helper, that is, a good friend of my beggar gang, this little favor, I must help! It's just that the Hetao is run by the Tianwang faction like an iron pass, over the years, although we have placed some spies in it, but most of them are not in important positions, they are all inconsequential small roles, so, in the Hetao, I am afraid that my beggar gang will not be able to help Brother Zilong too much!"

"It's okay!" Zilong smiled heartily, took the two of them to sit down, and said, "This time, Brother Qin can help me find a businessman to join the set, which can be regarded as a great help to me! It's just that after all, it's the first time I've been in the set, Brother Qin has been in Liangcheng for a long time, and the news of the Hetao is a little more than we know, and I hope to give me advice!"

"Don't dare to be!" Qin Wei was polite, and then said, "Actually, I really don't know much! But since Brother Zilong wants to know, I will naturally tell you everything! First of all, this Hetao is actually not a monolith, there are no less than ten tribes, distributed on this fertile soil.

Originally, they all belonged to the Mandu Lu department, but later I came out of the fortress and defeated the tribal alliance of the three tribes such as Mandu Lu in Hongyanchi, and Mandu Lu lost control of the Hetao, so the Hetao was restored to more than ten tribes.

Later, the defeated Ming army forces slowly withdrew from the Hetao due to the lack of whip length, and soon after, the Tianwang faction suddenly appeared on the Hetao, quickly integrated the major forces of the Hetao, and became the de facto ruler of the Hetao, and called the king and the ancestor in the Hetao!"

"The Heavenly King Sect only appeared in the Hetao after the Battle of the Red Salt Pond?" Wan'er asked after hearing this.

"Yes!" Although Qin Wei didn't know Wan'er's identity, she came with Zilong, so Qin Wei naturally wouldn't ignore her.

"As soon as the Ming army withdrew, the Tianwang faction integrated the forces of the Hetao and became the ruler of the Hetao, which is really weird!" Wan'er was also slightly strange when she heard this, twenty years ago, the Ming army defeated the rule of the three major tribes such as Mandulu, won the victory in the battle of Hongyanchi, and obtained the opportunity to rule the Hetao.

But why did the Ming army give up ruling the Hetao, and instead acquiesced in the Tianwang faction, such a suddenly rising sect, to control the Hetao? Is there any secret in this that they don't know?

Although Zilong didn't know what Wan'er was thinking, he also felt that this Heavenly King Sect was a little weird, but now he and the others were like seeing flowers in the fog for the Heavenly King Sect, and they couldn't see it clearly. At that moment, Zilong arched his hand and said, "Brother Qin knows, is that all there is?"

"Hehe, ashamed, ashamed, I know so much!" Qin Wei scratched the back of his head and said embarrassedly, "Most of these are spread from the Hetao, and a small number of them are found by our spies! The rule of the Heavenly King Sect in the Hetao can be said to be untouchable! We have sent hundreds of spies before and after, but there has been no progress, which makes the Zilong brothers laugh!"

"Then I don't know if there are any forces in the Hetao that are pro-me and the Ming Dynasty?" Zilong always felt in his heart that after the battle of Hongyanchi, those old people who supported the Ming army to rule the Hetao must not have all died. And those who can stay will become loyal supporters of the Ming army, and these people should form a certain pro-Ming force.

"I don't know!" Qin Wei shook his head regretfully and said, "Perhaps, there is! The rule of the Heavenly King Sect is as high-pressure as that of Meng Yuan! It is very brutal! So there should be opposition forces, but we have not come into contact with them! As for the pro-Ming forces, so far, I really haven't received anything in return!"

"Okay!" Zilong nodded regretfully and said, "It seems that all this can only be known by entering the Hetao!"

"Eh! Brother Zilong must be careful when he goes! Dai Qin's brother-in-law is really a powerful subordinate of a hall master of the Heavenly King Sect, so he can move around in the Heavenly King Sect! Brother Zilong, you are walking in the Hetao, it is best to have a good relationship with Dai Qin, but you are also invincible!" Qin Wei nodded at the dragon for a moment and said.

"Well, I know, this time there is Brother Lao Qin, say thank you to Brother Ren for me! When I come back from Hetao, I will drink with everyone again!" Zilong also thanked him.

"It should be!" Qin Wei nodded, and was about to leave, walked to the window, turned around and said, "Brother Zilong, if you encounter something that can't be solved in the Hetao, or you need to pass on news or something, you can find our beggar gang's spies in the Hetao, although they have not been able to make any progress in intelligence, but the communication on the Hetao is not a big obstacle!"

"Thank you, Brother Qin, I know!" Zilong couldn't help but feel a little happy in his heart when he heard this. Although the beggars don't have much power in the Hetao, since the communication history is unimpeded, at least it can be regarded as a great luck in misfortune.

"Then I'm leaving, Brother Zilong, take care, remember to call the spies to send a message back! I will definitely take the brothers of Liangcheng to the rescue! Farewell!" Qin Wei saw that everything that should be said was said, so he directly pushed open the window and flew out.

"Big brother is good to go!" Zilong also raised his hand slightly and said.

After Qin Wei left, Wan'er asked, "When did Brother Ren give you the token, why don't I know?" Indeed, Wan'er has been staying with Zilong, but she has never found out that Ren Bufan has given Zilong a token!

"It was the last time the prince took us to the helm of the beggar gang, and during the banquet, Brother Ren gave it to me! The reason why I made a military order from the Duke of Dingguo was that I thought that with the help of the beggar gang, the largest gang in the world, I should reduce some resistance if I want to deal with the Tianwang faction!" Zilong sighed and played with the purple bamboo order in his hand.

"Hey, now that even the beggars' eyes are in the Hetao and can't get any useful news, what should we do?" Wan'er heard what Zilong said, and she was also slightly worried.

This time, the deadline for the national government was only two months. Now the arrogance of the Ordos Department and the Tianwang faction is rising, and the Ming army is fighting fiercely on the border of the Great Wall of Ningxia, and the two armies are combined, and the total number is estimated to be nearly 100,000. If you want to repel the attack of these 100,000 allied troops, how can the Ming army succeed in two months without increasing reinforcements?

If the alliance between Ordos and the Tianwang faction could not be defeated in two months, and then Zilong did not uproot the lair of the Tianwang faction, then the Duke of Dingguo would definitely give Ma Fengyue to the Tianwang faction. After all, although Dingguo Gong is noble, he is only the chief military officer of this expedition after all, Min Yushi is in the army, and Wei Bin is the superintendent of the army. Dingguo Gong must consult with these two people in everything, and must not act arbitrarily.

"Let's take one step at a time!" Zilong, who had successfully infiltrated the Daiqin caravan, was also slightly frustrated, and then said again.

"Well, in fact, Brother Zilong, your thinking should be right!" Wan'er comforted, "In the Hetao, it will definitely not be the Tianwang faction that dominates! Now that he has sent 30,000 troops to Ningxia, even if there is strength in the Hetao, there will not be too much! Those opposition forces must be plotting to subvert the Tianwang faction at this time, what we need now is to see the situation clearly first, and then try to do anything else!"

"What Wan'er said is true!" Zilong nodded and said, "Sun Tzu has a cloud in the art of war, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can win a hundred battles! Now our strength has not been completely integrated, and the situation of the Heavenly King Sect and the situation of the Hetao, we have not figured it out, and now we are discussing here, it is just like a blind man touching an elephant, let's enter the Hetao with this Daiqin first, and then let's see!"

"The child can be taught!" Wan'er saw Zilong say this, and praised happily.

"It's not early now, Wan'er, you go and rest first! I'll make a bunk on the ground and sleep all night!"

"Okay!" Wan'er was also very happy that Zilong took pity on herself so much, and immediately got up to wash up, and went to sleep directly with her clothes. Zilong saw that Wan'er was asleep, so he also washed and slept directly.
