after marrying stepbrother

Chapter 738 Robbery

Chapter 738 Robbery

Wei Lan was wronged, so there was a gap between him and Bai Dingfeng. The couple ignored each other, stopped and stopped on the road, and had to catch up with the progress at night. Even so, they arrived in Licheng a few days later than expected.

After arriving in Licheng, the dart team delivering the cloth had already been waiting in place.

"The big thing is not good, our fabric was robbed by bandits!"

The head of the bodyguard went to Bai Dingfeng and complained, they took a small road to transport, but unexpectedly met a group of people on the road, the other party was all from the Lian family, with extraordinary skills, they came here specially to rob the cloth.

"Kidnapped?"

Bai Dingfeng felt incredible, and quickly asked, "Is it bandits or..."

"It should be a bandit, but it doesn't look like it."

The head of the bodyguard was not sure, the whole group was missing an arm and a leg, only he and a few brothers with lesser injuries rushed to Licheng to deliver the letter.

The group of people had a clear purpose, and they came straight to the military supply, and left after grabbing it.

The opponent left no room for attack, and most of them were killed or injured.

"how is this possible?"

Bai Dingfeng rubbed his chin. If he loses 3 taels of military supplies, he still has the ability to make up for it. What makes him anxious is the origin of this group of people.

Could it be someone from King Luo?
No, Bai Dingfeng eliminated King Luo almost instantly. The war in the northwest was tight, and the border town was lost. King Luo was already in a state of desperation, so it was unlikely that he would be distracted by military supplies.

Before Qin Cheng could make a move, what was the opponent's purpose?For this reason, Bai Dingfeng found Bai Youran, and the brother and sister whispered behind Wei Lan's back.

"Brother, you look listless, are you too tired from the journey?"

Bai Youran asked the question knowingly, feeling very refreshed in her heart.

"Yeah, I've been traveling day and night recently, so I'm a little tired."

Bai Dingfeng brought up the topic uncomfortably, and then asked, "Did you find something wrong when you were buying cloth in Cangzhou?"

"No."

When Bai Youran heard that the military supplies had been robbed, she was extremely shocked.

She was indeed responsible for the purchase, but the follow-up packing and inspection, as well as finding the escort team for delivery, were all handled by the Wei family.

The bodyguard team was robbed because the Wei family was not doing well, so it's best for Wei Lan to make up for the money.

"Brother, you don't suspect that there is a ghost among us, do you?"

Except for Li Ruoshuang who accompanied the bodyguard team, and the bodyguard team brought the female relatives with them, there was no one suspicious.

Bai Youran was very sure that such a big matter as robbing military supplies had nothing to do with Li Ruoshuang, and the Li family was not short of money, which could be seen from the considerable dowry left by Li Ruoxue.

Bai Dingfeng was silent. He really suspected that someone had tipped off the news.

"Our goal is not small, and anyone who is interested can guess it."

Besides, robbing military supplies is a felony, what is the other party planning?

"I suspect Lin Yuesha."

Bai Dingfeng spoke his mind, he excluded Lin Yuesha all the way, the strange thing is that Lin Yuesha silently acquiesced, "Lin Yuesha and Xu Da are close, why don't they care about the military supplies sent to the northwest Woolen cloth?"

"Brother, you are too suspicious."

Bai Youran clicked her tongue, suspecting that the Wei family robbed the military supplies and resold them for a second time, it was more reliable than suspecting Lin Yuesha.

Fighting on the battlefield is a man's business. A woman only needs to marry a good man and dress beautifully every day.

What's more, this time Lin Yuesha's entourage was selected by the ladies, so if you lose the military supplies, you can find someone to frame them at will, which is unnecessary.

After the group arrived in Licheng, Lin Yuesha didn't make another purchase for a long time. Only then did Lin Yuesha learn that the military supplies had been robbed.

"Could it be that the group of people who followed us before belonged to the Wei family?"

Lin Yuesha couldn't figure it out, the other party didn't do anything in Qincheng, but chose to act on the road from Cangzhou to Licheng.

"That group is still there."

Qing Xing whispered authentically, just now the master and servant went out for a stroll, and the people who followed them were from the same group as Cangzhou, so in sync, they must have known about their itinerary in advance.

"Who robbed the military supplies?"

Lin Yuesha thought about it and suspected that it had something to do with Li Ruoshuang. The only accident in Cangzhou was Li Ruoshuang.

If things go wrong, there must be a demon, but I don't know who is behind Li Ruoshuang.

"Thanks to your resourcefulness, miss, you changed the fabric in advance, and those fools who robbed only robbed a lonesome, ahaha!"

Qing Xing laughed out loud at first, and then frowned when she had had enough laughs. She didn't know how to deal with the loss of military supplies. Bai Dingfeng would only be more careful, and if he used the same method to exchange goods, he might not be able to.

"Miss, Miss Bai, please go to the room to discuss."

A group of people settled down in the inn, Lin Yuesha went out to familiarize herself with the market of medicinal materials, and was sent a letter by Bai Youran as soon as she came back.

Lin Yuesha hurried to the next room and found that Bai Dingfeng and Wei Lan were also there.

The couple had a cold war, sitting far away from each other, looking businesslike.

"Cough cough."

Wei Lan cleared her throat, looked up at Lin Yuesha and said arrogantly, "Lin Yuesha, you must have heard the news that our goods were robbed by bandits."

"Well, I heard about it."

Lin Yuesha sighed, "Luck is bad, and people's hearts are not old. Those fabrics are used to make cotton coats for soldiers in the Northwest in winter. How can we deal with the ladies when we return to Beijing?"

Wei Lan lowered her eyes and said in her heart, "That depends on you being able to go back to the capital."

"Our money for purchasing military supplies is allocated in advance. We were robbed this time, so we had to use our own money to make up for it. Otherwise, there will be a shortage of winter clothing for soldiers in the Northwest. Soldiers are fighting the enemy on the front line. They must not be short of clothes or food. Heart!"

Wei Lan spoke righteously, Lin Yuesha raised her eyebrows, she had a hunch that what Wei Lan said next would be quite shameless.

As if to match Lin Yuesha's thoughts, Wei Lan said: "I heard that you raised more than 4 taels of silver with the troupe in Cangzhou, and you can just make up for it by taking it out."

Bai Youran was taken aback, Wei Lan and Lin Yuesha had a festival, so she asked Lin Yuesha to come over to discuss with her as an intermediary, unexpectedly it was not a negotiation, but someone to support the vat.

"Before the trip, what did you, Wei Lan, say? You said that everything in the itinerary was arranged by you, and you were in charge of finding the escort team to transport it."

Lin Yuesha slapped the table and stood up, the persimmons could be squeezed softly, but she didn't bring such a bully, Wei Lan took advantage of the reputation and benefits, let her bear the risk, no way!

"Don't bully me. I have never seen the world. Before delivering the goods, I made a contract with the escort team. Whoever loses it will be compensated. Why did you follow me? Did I find the escort team? Did I rob the military supplies? ?”

It is true that Lin Yuesha has money in her hands, and she brought nearly 10 taels of silver from the capital. She also wants to establish a good reputation for herself, and she does not want to make wedding dresses for others.

"Lin Yuesha, you are so vicious!"

Wei Lan covered her heart with her hands, and said quite emotionally, "In order to transport the cloth, the bodyguard team died or were injured, how dare you make them lose money?"

"So, you pay for it."

Lin Yuesha remained unmoved, forgive her for being difficult to empathize with, it is not easy to live these days, and there are rules for doing a job, and no one can change it.
