Chapter 770
Xie Fu said with a smile: "I am now preparing to transport the silver to the eastern states in the south of the Yangtze River."

Gu Chong took the initiative to say: "Young Master Xie, then Chong Ziwei will escort you, so as not to be robbed by bandits halfway."

It's not that Xie Fu didn't think of these concerns, but the transportation has already consumed a lot of manpower, how could he cover everything in terms of escort, after hearing Gu Chong's words, he said happily, "Then I will have to take care of the Chief Guard."

"Young Master Xie, you don't have to be polite, just call the villain by his name."

Xie Fu said: "It's just that I have eighteen teams, and the number of you may be a bit stretched."

Gu Chong smiled: "Young Master Xie, you are worrying too much. The Tiger Guards have a total of forty guards. Most of them are in the Rudong Garden campus, and they can be reached in a quarter of an hour."

Xie Fu said in shock: "There are as many as forty elites among the elites like you."

Gu Chong didn't answer Xie Fu's question, but turned to his deputy and said, "Young Master Xie needs more manpower, please go back to the school grounds and let me know."

After finishing speaking, he reported to Fu Xie: "Young Master Xie, once you go and come, you will be there in a quarter of an hour."

Xie Fu thought to himself, if people can be mobilized so quickly, if there is a war, it will definitely be like a heavenly soldier.

"Mr. Gu, time is running out, so Raul and others will escort the first convoy to Huzhou."

"Thank you, young master, don't worry!"

The convoys were escorted away by Gu's family guards.

Ye Jieyi couldn't help thanking Fu and said: "With these guards escorting you, you are absolutely safe. Brother Fu, you can call such personnel, which really impresses me."

Xie Fu responded: "I also want to thank the third master for his great love for me!"

Ye Jieyi smiled and said, "Isn't it because of Xianting?"

Xie Fu smiled and said, "That's right."

……

There was an army stationed at the gate of the city, it was the Zhechong Mansion Infantry Battalion that had been mobilized temporarily, and its commander was Cong Qipin Zhechong Mansion Captain.

The soldier came to report: "My lord, the motorcade from Tantai Mansion is here."

Captain Bu Wu nodded: "Get ready."

The convoy was stopped by soldiers as soon as it arrived at the gate, and a loud voice came: "In order to prevent people from smuggling grain out of the city, all people leaving the city must be searched closely."

The leader of the transport convoy immediately stepped forward and said with an apologetic smile: "General, we are the convoy from Tantai Mansion, and we are preparing to transport silver to Huzhou."

At the same time, he quietly handed over a piece of silver in his hand, and when he met government servants and soldiers on weekdays, he only needed to report the name of Tantai Mansion, and the other party would make it easier for him.

Captain Bu Wu directly threw the silver on the ground, and shouted in a cold voice: "Trying to bribe the general, search!"

At this moment, there was a sound of galloping horseshoes, loud and orderly, like a horn.

Gu Chong, who was following closely behind the convoy, led the Chong Ziwei Eighteen Cavalry to the front.

None of the 18 people got off their horses, their expressions were haughty and condescending, and the momentum of this troop immediately became much shorter.

Zhechong Mansion Infantry Battalion can be regarded as a regular army that can fight, and it does not need ordinary government servants, but compared with this Chongzi Guard, it is immediately like a small soldier.

Captain Bu Wu was surprised, but his expression froze. He had never eaten pork and had never seen a pig run.

Gu family tiger guard!

Although the Gu family's tiger guards are very low-key, they have been in the Rudongyuan campus all year round, but they are well-known. When I saw them today, they were indeed like tigers and wolves.

I am a seventh-rank captain, but the other party doesn't even bother to glance at me out of the corner of their eyes.

Gu Chong said coldly: "Gu Jia Chong Ziwei was ordered by the third master to escort the convoy out of the city, and robbers appeared somewhere to block the road."

The eighteen guards immediately showed their bright weapons at the same time and shouted in unison: "Where did the robbers come from? They don't know how to live or die!"

Captain Bu Wu was taken aback when he heard the words, is the other party blind?They are all wearing military uniforms, where are they robbers.

Seeing the other party's murderous look about to kill them as robbers, a chill came down their spine.

Tiger Guards found an excuse and dared to kill them as robbers.

Immediately, he took the initiative to reveal his identity: "We are the infantry camp of Zhechong Prefecture, everything is a misunderstanding!"

After speaking, he moved out of the way as an example, and his subordinates also gave way to both sides of the way.

"go!"

Gu Chong led the rider to clear the way out of the city, and Wu Ying seemed to be sending him off respectfully.

After Chong Ziwei and the convoy had gone far away, the deputy asked in a low voice: "My lord, let them go like this? General Zhu when the time comes..."

Captain Bu Wu interrupted: "Are you blind? They are the guards of the Gu family. If they kill them, they will die unjustly. No one will stand up for us?"

"We have more than 100 people, are we still afraid of more than a dozen of them?"

Captain Bu Wu snorted coldly: "You are still ignorant, look at the ground."

The assistant followed Bu Wu's point and looked towards the ground, only to see that there was a crack on the stone slab where the horse's hoof was at the position Chong Ziwei had stopped just now.

Bu Wu Xiaowei said: "The crack is caused by the moment when Chong Ziwei showed his weapon and saw the lock."

The deputy was shocked: "A man of martial arts."

Captain Bu Wu said in a deep voice: "Even if you still have some knowledge, they are all martial arts people. Those of us who have not even touched the threshold of martial arts, how can we be their opponents."

"If I hadn't reacted in time just now, I would have become their dead soul at this moment."

"Anyway, we are also a well-organized army. Do they really dare to kill?"

Captain Bu Wu snorted: "Don't doubt the ability of the Gu family, even if the Gu family is in trouble now and spread to the court, the court will not only pretend to be deaf, but also cover it up for the Gu family.

"If you really dare to attack the Gu family, the world will be in chaos immediately. Do you think this Ziwei dares to kill people? Do you think General Zhu can avenge our grievances?"

Hearing this, the deputy's back immediately broke out in cold sweat.

At this moment, another subordinate came to report: "My lord, another motorcade from Tantai Mansion has arrived."

Captain Bu Wu was not impatient, but asked, "Are there any guards to accompany you?"

"Yes, Gu family guard."

Captain Bu Wu took a deep breath: "Withdraw!"

But he didn't even have the courage to meet the Gu family Huwei.

……

Just as Zhu Shide returned to the hall, a group of grain merchants immediately surrounded him: "Master Zhu..."

Zhu Shide turned his ears off, and ordered loudly: "Make me a cup of tea right away!"

He sat down and rinsed his mouth with tea repeatedly. He had never been so humiliated in his life, being gagged with shoes and boots!

It's just that the one who gave him this humiliation was someone who couldn't afford to offend—Lu Tao, the leader of the Lu Clan, Zhu Shide had to swallow all the grievances he had.

After cleaning his mouth, Zhu Shide inspected the hall with his eyes, and said calmly, "Why are you panicking? I'm back. I'm a member of the Zhu faction, and he, Lu Tao, doesn't dare to do anything to me."

These words are also reminding the food present that he still has Zhu Clan behind him, so there is no need to be afraid of Lu Tao.

After all the grain merchants looked at each other in blank dismay, one of them spoke first: "Master Zhu, something is wrong."

Zhu Shide looked calm and calm: "What's the matter, tell me!"

"Changzhou, Huzhou, Muzhou, and Mingzhou were one step ahead of Tantai Heqing, and we had nothing to gain."

Zhu Shide was furious when he heard the words: "These people dare to fight against each other! Don't you want to mess around?"

"No! Tantai Heqing was the first to buy grain from the farmers, and our people were one step behind."

Zhu Shide blurted out: "Nonsense, Tantai Heqing is a cloth merchant, not a grain merchant."

Every industry has channels for every industry. Zhu Shide couldn't think of the possibility of a layman stealing business from them in such a long time.

And it's not one family, but four states, thousands of farmers, Zhu Shide can't imagine.

Another older grain merchant, who seemed more stable, said: "Master Zhu, it's true. We were also shocked when we received the news. We didn't expect it at all."

"When we wanted to make amends, those farmers didn't care about us at all, and took the initiative to send the grain to Tantai Heqing and sell it to her like crazy."

Zhu Shide asked: "How did Tantai Heqing do it?"

"To buy grain with cash, the purchase price is directly increased by [-]% compared with previous years."

Zhu Shide heard the words, and couldn't help being amazed at the opponent's courage. Even though he was a competitor, he admired him and asked, "Where did Tantai Heqing get so much cash?"

Silver needs to be transported slowly, but there is no way to arrive in such a timely manner.

"I do not know about this."

Another grain merchant said: "I have received some news that Tantai Heqing asked the local cloth merchants for help, the money should be temporarily borrowed from these cloth merchants, and the manpower and the team should also belong to these grain merchants. "

Zhu Shide blurted out, "What a powerful woman!"

Even if he handles this matter personally, it may not be as good as Tantai Heqing.

What kind of talents, connections, persuasiveness, and leadership skills does this woman possess...

Simply a born king!
To be honest, Zhu Shide didn't take his opponents seriously from the very beginning, all he was worried about was Lu and Gu's meddling behind his back.

Unexpectedly, Tantai Heqing defeated him in the first battle with his aboveboard business methods.

To be honest, he admired this woman from the bottom of his heart, and from this moment on, he did not dare to underestimate his opponent.

Asked in a serious tone: "Then what should we do now?"

The hall was silent for a while, and the stable grain merchant said: "Changzhou, Huzhou, Muzhou, and Mingzhou are all lost, and spending time and energy in these four states will not help. Now we should use our own way Compete with Tantai Crane for enough food in other states."

Some people echoed: "Yes! After all, we are familiar with this trip, and with the help of manpower, we only need an express letter to send it anytime, anywhere. It is not like Tantai Heqing, which requires us to do it ourselves."

Zhu Shide said loudly: "Then why are you still standing there, you should be one step faster than your opponent."

……

Competitors are vying to buy grain in various parts of the Jiangnan East Road. Just as the Jiangnan grain merchants said, they already have a foundation in various places and can sell anytime, anywhere.

However, Tantai Heqing needs to do it by himself, and rush to every place.

No one else can help with this matter, after all, Tantai Heqing is fighting alone, and her opponent is the grain merchants in the entire south of the Yangtze River.

Things didn't go as smoothly as they did in the first few days, and they lost several states.

A horse-drawn carriage traveling overnight was on the pipeline.

It was Tantai Heqing who was sitting in the carriage, doing business during the day and traveling at night, this has been the case for the past few days.

Tantai Heqing also hasn't had a good night's sleep for several days, she only takes a nap when she can't stand it anymore, but she doesn't dare to sleep too much.

She is simply a woman made of iron.
