Chapter 38
Yinbao immediately let out a mournful howl, and cried a lot, but couldn't shed tears, "The crimes of Fatty Wang can't be summed up in just one or two sentences."

Hearing Yin Bao's flickering words, the governor's face was ashen, very angry, and he patted his thigh repeatedly, "This bastard, I will cut him alive sooner or later!"

"Don't cry anymore. I just said, where are you from? Do you know there is a place called Water Flower Village near here?"

Yin Bao was taken aback, and was about to speak, but hesitated to speak, lowering his eyelids to pretend to wipe away his tears, sobbing with snot, but thinking of a solution quickly.

Why did this iron cavalry commander look for their village?Shuihua Village is impoverished, there is no living food on the land, there is no wide river passing by, and there are no treasures.

"I've never heard of this village, but the governor doesn't have a map of this area? Just look for it!"

The governor sighed, took out a crumpled map from his pocket, squinted his eyes and quickly skimmed it, and muttered to himself, "Yeah, my lord asked me to find this too, but... the map There is no such thing as

Yin Bao's eyes trembled, lord?Which prince could it be?Now this place is the king of Zhao in the north and the king of Langya in the south. This man wants to take back Mizhuang so much
"The general is so wise and mighty. I don't know which prince he serves under?"

"You don't need to know the name of the governor. I belong to the king of Langya. Our lord has issued a death order. We must find the water flower village and burn it all. If you know the clue, you must provide it as soon as possible!"

Yin Bao nodded, and hurriedly responded, "Not to mention that I don't know, I've never heard of it in a radius of [-] li. Maybe the governor can expand the scope, and I'll help you find out!"

The governor saw that Yinbao was a savvy person, and also proved that she was not a secret agent or a bait at the city gate, deliberately luring them into the bait, so he released Yinbao, and more than 30 people were ready to go and continue to look for Shuihua Village.

In the middle of the night, Yinbao walked along the mountain road, relying on his excellent eyesight in the dark, and finally saw the shining water flower village at the foot of the mountain.The members of the congregation stood at the door and waited anxiously. When they saw a limping figure, they all ran towards it.

Yin Bao only felt dizzy as soon as she heard her elder brother calling her name, as if the world was spinning, and then fell to the ground with a bang, completely confused.

In the dream, there was a thick mist, and a beautiful woman was walking towards her in the emperor's clothes, embroidered with peonies with dragon patterns, shining golden light.

The voice is soft and gentle, but quite powerful.The red lips opened and closed, and the brows and eyes were full of sadness. He just stared blankly at Yin Bao, repeating a sentence over and over again.

"Binghe is the letter, Liangcheng is the number."

Yin Bao frowned, and wanted to step forward to ask more clearly, but the woman got farther and farther away until she disappeared from sight.

Brother's call came from next to his ear, and Yin Bao woke up with a jolt, only to realize that there was a towel on his forehead.She has a fever again.

"Naughty, you scared my brother to death. Where did you go today? Did you get caught by Fatty Wang?"

"No, it was the Iron Cavalry Commander we saw at the time. He thought I was from Wang Sanxiang. But he didn't make things difficult for me."

The three brothers and sisters were sitting at the table, surrounded by the brothers and girls outside the hall, looking inside worriedly, Yin Bao waved his hand, forced a smile from the corner of his mouth, "Okay, let's go back and rest, we have to hurry tomorrow morning .”

"Yes, Hall Master!"

After everyone had dispersed, the second brother just came to the door and took out the account books in the hall, "Today, the total income is [-] cash. After excluding the purchased items, the net profit can be [-] cash. The income is good, but I came to buy it. Most of the guests are men, which is indeed a bit different from our original plan."

The eldest brother nodded, "Indeed, they are just like the person who claimed to be Wang Sanxiang's godson, just came in to taste something new, and there are many people, just to see the situation of Yuhuan Pavilion opposite in our store."

"I heard from the owner of the neighbor's shop today that Yuhuan Pavilion just moved in yesterday and has not yet opened. He once released gossip that when it opens in three days, a beautiful hidden stone will be displayed. The auction price is 500 taels, which is quite a lot. The people who play jade are all discussing in the store today, Xiaoer heard it when he was on the water, and he told me to talk to the second child when he came back."

Yin Bao tapped the teapot on the table, the tea leaves in it were fluttering like feathers, and half of the pot was full of fragrance, and he carefully twisted it slowly, "Then how many consortiums are there in Mizhuang now?"

The second brother took out a blueprint from the back of the ledger, on which the streets of Mizhuang, the gates of rich people, and the places where Fatty Wang mainly built fortifications and defenses were all drawn according to the marks of Yinbaojiao.

"Sinan took people to find this secretly today. I have personally asked about the locations and specific conditions of these consortiums."

"There are [-] larger farm households, and [-] of them have joined Xue Minggui's Gaolianghui. Now Xue Minggui is missing and Wang Sanxiang is in charge. Through cooperation with Gaolianghui, these [-] households have brought Xue Minggui's Mi Zhuang The city under control is divided into [-] shares, and taxes are collected according to the share, each family is different."

"But now Mizhuang's treasury is empty, Fatty Wang's initial strategy of 'enhancing wealth' was unsuccessful, so the day we entered the city, he let go of the four city gates, whether he wanted to do business or settle down to escape With the flames of war, all departments have opened green channels."

"According to incomplete statistics, there are now about 5 subordinates of Gaoliang Huiyizitang."

Yin Bao twisted his braids, rubbed his index finger and thumb gently, and rolled his eyes, "All fifteen big families belong to him, there are eighteen families in total, what about the rest?"

The second brother circled a red mark on the drawing.

"Of the remaining three families, two are aloof from the world and are always neutral. They can't let go of a fart if they are beaten with a stick. There is only one family and Fatty Wang who work hard every day. This is Li Ren. Mi More than half of the fabric shops and silk shops in the village are run by his family."

"There is also this Yuhuan Pavilion. It is also related to him."

The eldest brother scratched his head, "Isn't this Yuhuan Pavilion from the capital, can this have something to do with it?"

"That's right, it's so nonsense, but I've asked many people. Although everyone can't remember everything, the general meaning is not bad. The shopkeeper of Yuhuan Pavilion is a woman. It is rumored that she is Li Ren's concubine! Fatty Wang! The first time I cried to my father and mother for nothing, I invited Yuhuan Pavilion here to do business."

Yin Bao glanced at the map on the wall, pinched his fingers to count the year, and smiled slightly, "Luoyang is about to go to war, and the people in Yuhuan Pavilion are not stupid. Find a place to avoid the limelight."

"Whether the rumors are true or not, it is beneficial to arrange us to do business opposite Yuhuan Pavilion. After all, they are famous all over the world. Today is the first day they open, and we can sell so much money for just one dish."

"I just want to find a way, how to attract some female customers. The male customers are really not sticky, and our daily income is not guaranteed."
