Heaven's Martial Fate

Chapter 157 The Power
Beijing Baicao Hall, the old house of the Bai family.

A letter from Jiao'ao broke the tranquility of the Bai family's old house.

Several principals of the Bai family gathered together to discuss the sudden incident.

"Everyone is talking, shall we do this business?"

The second wife of the Bai family, who is the head of the Bai family at this time, spoke directly.

"Doing business with Jiao'ao, there should be no problem!"

"That's right, the uncle is over there too, he can't possibly harm us, right?"

"This time Jiao'ao's request is not small, at least it can make a lot of money if it is completed, and it will also be of great help to our family!"

"It's just a normal medicine business, don't worry too much!"

The rest of the Bai family and a few old people expressed their opinions one after another, almost all with the same meaning: this business is best done.

The Bai family was tortured a lot before. Not only did the old man die, but the family was also separated, which can be said to be a serious injury.

Although the second wife's wife was able to pull the Bai family out of the quagmire with great difficulty, the heritage of the Bai family was severely depleted.

At this time, the Bai family urgently needed blood to recover.

Seeing this, Erfang's wife sighed and said: "But, the uncle is working with Brother Ludi Fatan, so I'm afraid there will be trouble!"

"What's the trouble?"

"Bai Lian..."

Mrs. Erfang just revealed two words, which made the faces of the core members of the Bai family change drastically, completely losing their previous excitement.

The White Lotus Sect in Ludi is no joke, it has specialized in rebellion for hundreds of years.

The imperial court's suppression of it also began during the Qianlong period, and it must not be contaminated. The Bai family can no longer withstand too many twists and turns.

"Ma'am, are you sure that the elder brother Fatan that the uncle follows has something to do with the White Lotus Sect?"

Of course, after the panic passed, some Bai family members regained their composure and asked directly, "Could it be that the uncle is forced to..."

"No, I'm just worried!"

Mrs. Erfang shook her head and said: "Our family has traveled there a lot, and we know the situation in Ludi very well!"

"Many dharma altars have inexplicable connections with the White Lotus Sect!"

"Of course, the man that my uncle follows is quite cautious, and his behavior is quite low-key. There should be no problem in doing medicinal material business with him!"

Seeing that the core members of the Bai family were dissatisfied and puzzled, she continued: "Who knows if anyone continues to stare at our Bai family? What if they talk about it indiscriminately? The court doesn't care so much!"

"So, I just want to remind everyone that it is fine to do business with Jiao'ao, but it must not be leaked out easily, otherwise it will be framed and it will be unclear!"

What he said was justified and well-founded, and the core members of the Bai family nodded repeatedly to express their approval.

And what happened next forced the Bai family to make a quick decision. They sent the second master and the two children of Dafang, together with a group of old pharmacists from Baicao Hall, to go to Luzhou with enough medicinal materials and wound medicines. Dijiao area.

After the Sino-Japanese War, I negotiated with Xiaori, and Xiaori asked for a compensation amount of [-] million taels of silver.

My Qing court naturally refused to agree, especially the strength of Weihaiwei's great victory, which shows that the Qing army is not without the power to fight.

Even the Liaodong area occupied by Xiaotian was turned upside down by righteous courage at this time. Xiaotian's army could not be strangled at all, and even the British, French and Russian powers interfered. Xiaotian probably didn't stay long at all.

Under such circumstances, Xiao Zizi's claim for [-] million taels of silver is probably a sign of water in his head.

But those with a keen sense of smell, or the court deliberately blowing the wind, whether it is to reorganize the Qing army or pay compensation to Japan, will need a large amount of money to invest.

Right now, the imperial court has no money in hand, and the national treasury is very empty, so it is natural to ask rich people to share some money.

No matter what, the Bai family is a well-known medical family in the capital. They have news channels in the court and official circles. How could they not be in a hurry after hearing it?
Every time the imperial court assigns tasks, the Bai family basically doesn't have to run away, and it's probably impossible to hide this time.

The Bai family still knows what the current situation of the court is.

The lion who was connected to the little days opened his mouth wide, and the Bai family had to pay at least 30 taels of silver before they could barely pass.

If he was targeted by the boss who specifically raised money, he would have to bleed a lot.

Even in the heyday of the Bai family, it was a bit difficult to take out so much money in one go, let alone when it was just getting out of the quagmire now?
Therefore, the Bai family was in a hurry.

He no longer cared about the quality of the boss that the Bai family was following, he made the money first, otherwise life would be difficult in the future.

At this time, Bai Jingqi, the pig's foot of the mansion gate, was just fifteen years old, and it was time for rebellion.

Seeing the always honest father gets angry, and the atmosphere in the capital is quite depressing recently, so Nao Teng wants to go to Ludi together.

This guy, right now I can describe it in one word: bastard!
The second wife and the master couldn't resist Bai Jingqi's tossing around. Of course, the biggest possibility was that they were worried about something happening in the capital, so they acquiesced in his behavior.

I don't know why the third master Bai, who has already separated, heard the news from Bai Jingqi, and ran back to make money in Ludi, expressing his dissatisfaction to the fullest.

In the end, the members of the Bai family who went to Ludi had another rogue Bai Sanye.

Fortunately, there were no twists and turns, and we arrived in Ludi safely.

The situation in Ludi is not very good. Although the Xiaori army is completely wiped out, the Weihaiwei military port is always threatened by the Xiaori navy in the Lushun military port.

Such a situation made people in Ludi panic.

After all, knowing the good things Xiaotian did in Lushun, no one is worried that Xiaotian will rush over and do it in Ludi.

At this time of turmoil, various forces have stepped up one after another unwilling to show weakness, making the already uneasy situation even more complicated.

Thieves, bandits and bandits appeared one after another, taking the opportunity to loot a wave.

Brothers in Fatan all over the world went their own way, some fought with foreign churches, and some joined forces with the White Lotus Sect and Red Lantern Lighting to make the whole land messy and chaotic.

Such a situation shocked the Bai family who had just arrived in Ludi.

However, the rascal Bai Sanye even went to the fireworks and willow alley in the town with the rebellious Bai Jingqi, looking like a wealthy son, so he is not eye-catching.

As a result, how can one not get his shoes wet when he often walks by the river?

A trap was set up by a local snake in a certain town, and the uncle and nephew jumped in directly.

When Bai Erye, who led the team, saw the blackmail letter in his hand, he was trembling with anger, but he was helpless.

One is the third-bedroom master of the Bai family, and the other is his direct son. It is impossible to ignore them.

However, the relationship between the Bai family in Baicao Hall in Ludi is mediocre, and they don't know any powerful people.

It's always impossible, people will give you as much money as they want, isn't that digging a hole for yourself?
If the other snakes hear about it, maybe they will rob people directly, who doesn't like white money?

At this time, the old pharmacist who accompanied him reminded him that he could ask the uncle for help.

The master of the second room was also helpless, so he had no choice but to write to his elder brother for help, without any expectations in his heart.

Unexpectedly, within a few days, a capable cavalry team took the initiative to seek the door.

"Aren't you from the Bai Family of Baicao Hall in the capital?"

The head of the strong man is full of vigor, and he knows at a glance that he is not an existence to be provoked.

Under the protection of several guards, Bai Erye dared to speak to him: "Exactly, I am the second bedroom master of the Bai family!"

"I'm Brother Jiao'ao Fatan. I'm here entrusted by Senior Brother Wu to solve your troubles. This is your uncle's token!"

The leading man directly took out a token, handed it to Second Master Bai, and said in a deep voice, "I don't know what trouble the Bai family and his party have encountered?"

Holding the token of his eldest brother, Second Master Bai was in a daze for a moment, unable to turn his head around.

Didn't it mean that the eldest brother followed by the boss is very low-key, and he doesn't seem to be very powerful, and the current situation is like this?
A letter of pleading for help has attracted a team of very oppressive men in front of him. Is this a sign of strength?

Seeing that the man who came to help was a little impatient, he was embarrassed to tell the story of the third master of the Bai family and his own son, and finally said helplessly: "If there is no other way, it is not impossible to redeem people with money, but the price cannot be so high! "

"Haha, I thought it was a big deal. Erye Bai doesn't need to waste money on such a trivial matter, it can be easily resolved!"

The man who came to help laughed, waved his hands indifferently, and said leisurely: "Second Master Bai, wait a moment, I'll go and invite Third Master Bai and Young Master Bai!"

After speaking, he took the brothers who followed him and walked quickly towards a certain direction in the city.

Second Master Bai was very apprehensive, wondering if he should trust these men, but right now he could only wait anxiously for the result.

Fortunately, the man from Jiao'ao didn't talk big, and he really rescued him not long after, without paying any money.

At this time, Second Master Bai was completely convinced, and at the same time, he had the most intuitive understanding of the strength of Senior Brother Wu in Jiao'ao Dharma Altar.

Obviously not belonging to his own territory, but being able to easily rescue his third brother and son from the local local boss, this is not a small skill.

In fact, his guess was still somewhat inaccurate.

The brand of Jiao'ao Dharma Altar is quite easy to use in the whole Ludi at this time, and it is definitely a well-known existence. Senior Brother Wu is also a famous master, and everyone in Ludi should give some face.

There is no way, the Weihaiwei defense battle can be hidden from the imperial court and Li Zhongtang, but it cannot be hidden from the local snakes in Ludi.

When they knew the great achievements of Senior Brother Wu and the mighty strength of the Jiao'ao boxers, they were both admiring and shocked. Nima, isn't this too exaggerated?
More than 2 troops landed in the small day, and the mighty force that swept through Koryo and Liaodong was solved by Brother Wu with his boxers, right?
It's like, the army is just like paper in the old days, but it's not like that...
