Chapter 90: Take it to heart is the truth

In the Gubei Village, in front of the Sihai Warehouse, there were many people standing under the banner embroidered with the words Sihai, most of whom were the servants in the warehouse, and many of them were whispering.

"Justice Guan is going back to Camel City, but I don't know who the new owner is?"

"How can you just leave? If Mr. Guan is not here, who can shake the gang of sluts around you?"

After Guan Qi returned to Gubei Village, he explained to Hou San and his confidants. Compared to sending other people to the General Office, Hou San and the others felt that it would be better to let Gao Jin, an acquaintance, take over the Sihai Warehouse. Although Gao Jin was young, he knew the rules and was polite and generous.

At the railing on the second floor of Sihai Freight Store, looking at the crowd below, Hou San, the accountant, said to Mr. Guan, "Mr. Guan, I really don't want these guys in the mansion. Many of the old people in it were taught by me, but they are no worse than those in the mansion..."

In addition to two horse teams, Sihai Warehouse also has nearly 50 staff members working in the Warehouse. More than ten of them were trained by Hou San himself, who can read and settle accounts, and even the business gangs placed in the customs can get a position of manager.

"The industry in the mansion is all about carrots and pits, so where is the turn of outsiders involved?"

Mr. Guan shook his head. In the general's mansion, although the eldest son was the most favored by the master, the other sons were not very easy to use. When they left, they were just an old slave. What else could he have to do when he went back to Camel City to speak in the future.

Even if these guys are shameless and ask others to take in, they are just a humiliation. He can ask for something from the eldest son, but the eldest son's confidants have their confidants to arrange it. If he goes to ask for it, he will be evil to these people.

Although the Sihai Warehouse was a foundation laid by Mr. Guan, the guys in the Warehouse have been together for many years and have some affection, but in the end, they are not well enough to make Mr. Guan ignore his own family and find a good future for them.

Hou San sighed lightly when he heard this. Those who work in the Sihai Warehouse were actually poor and homeless people. He himself was a scholar who was kidnapped by the Tartars. If Guan Ye hadn't bought him back from the Tartars, he would have died long ago.

"Okay, what's the point of sighing? The old man didn't find you a good home!"

Over the years, Mr. Guan has become a hand-off manager of many of the miscellaneous tasks of Sihai Warehouse. Hou San is in charge of all the affairs. It is not an exaggeration to say that Hou San is the main housekeeper of Sihai Warehouse.

Mr. Guan originally wanted to take Hou San back to Camel City, with Hou San alone. Their friendship also made Mr. Guan willing to recommend Hou San to the eldest son. After all, Hou San's ability to settle accounts was very powerful, but Hou San couldn't bear to part with those guys and was unwilling to go to the General's Mansion to do business.

"Master Guan is talking about Madam!"

When talking about Gao Jin, Hou San was shocked and said to Master Guan, "Master Guan, you just came back, I'm afraid I don't know that this Master has done a big thing again!"

"What a big deal? I met him in Hakou Fort a few days ago, but I didn't hear him mention it?"

Mr. Guan knew that Hou San was a human being, and knew that he had always been steady and could be called "a big deal". I think Gao Jin made a lot of noise.

"Master Guan, remember the Black Sha Horse Thief!"

"Those thieves are also a bit capable, but they hate Xiao Gao and even Li Da died on the little master. What's wrong?"

Guan Ye is very familiar with the horse thieves near Gubei Village. When he first arrived at Gubei Village to establish rules, he killed several groups of horse thieves to establish authority. Then Li Da led his men to break out of the title of Black Sha horse thief. However, this guy has always been so obedient, he is too lazy to pay attention to it.

"Two days ago, someone passed by the black sand horse thief's nest and found that Bai Ying, the third leader of the black sand horse thief, died miserably. All the remaining horse thieves died, and they were stripped of their armor and inserted into wooden stakes..."

Hou Sanlei saw that the defeat of the Black Sha horse thieves was successful. It was not that the Sihai Warehouse did not want to wipe out the surrounding horse thieves, but the horse team of the Warehouse was actually the private army of the General's Office and wanted to suppress Gubei Village. It must not be easily damaged. Therefore, as long as the surrounding horse thieves were not too quarrel, they could only turn a blind eye and pretend that they were not aware of it.

"Did Xiao Gao do it?"

Mr. Guan looked at Hou Sanmei's expression and asked half-confidence. Gao Jin had made a name for himself. When they came back from Guihua City, they had defeated several horse thieves on the way.

"It was done by Gao Ye. Gao Ye not only put the thieves on the stumps, but also wrote blood words..."

"This little tall is so killing!"

After hearing this, Mr. Guan stroking his beard and laughed. He admired Gao Jin's ruthlessness. He could not scare them if he was not cruel enough. When he established rules in Gubei Village, he led the horse team to break through two big villages, and cut the heads into small hills to show them.

"Yes, now the news has spread. Many horse thieves privately call him "Gao Yanluo" and are afraid of death."

Hou San glanced at the caravans from the south in the square in front of the cargo warehouse below, "Grandpa is famous now, but I don't know how many people there are. Can I take this Gubei Village?"

If nothing unexpected happens, Gao Jin will be Hou San's new owner in the future, so Hou San is quite concerned. Nowadays, the caravans of Gubei Village are gathered, and the Sihai Cargo Warehouse can set rules to control this Gubei Village. In addition to the caravan team of the cargo warehouse, it also relies on the General Mansion behind it.

Those merchant gangs are the smartest. In the past few years, due to internal struggles between the Tumote tribe, Gubei Village has become increasingly depressed, but it is not that the news that Guihua City has opened another border city this year has spread, and many merchant gangs rushed to Gubei Village to transfer goods. It is not because Du Wenhuan, the master, became the general!

With the General's Mansion as your backer, isn't this Gubei Village the most stable market outside the Great Wall? It can also curry favor with the General's Mansion.

Hou San could see clearly that Gubeizhai was far better than the prosperity of the past because of the General's Mansion. Guan Ye was there. Even if there were only more than a hundred horse teams in the Sihai Cargo Store, those hundreds of horse thieves dared not easily make mistakes. If Gao Jin was replaced, the result might not be.

There is no airtight wall in this world. Master Guan handed over Gubei Village to Gao Jin. In the eyes of those who don’t know the inside story, he naturally thought that Gao Jin was from the General’s Mansion. However, the interests in the General’s Mansion were complicated, so some rumors were inevitably heard.

Mr. Guan looked at Hou San's expression and guessed what he was thinking. There were so many horse thieves outside the border. The richer and more powerful the Gubei Village, the more likely they were to be coveted by horse thieves. Everyone knows that the horse team in the Sihai Goods Store is from the General's Mansion. No one dares to come to capture tiger beards. But if Gao Jin is replaced, it will be different.

"There are always hundreds of soldiers under the little master."

Mr. Guan frowned. He suddenly realized that he had thought about Gubei Village too simply. Gao Jin's men were really useless to throw Gao Jin into Gubei Village. Although his servants could fight, they were all infantrymen.

"These people are not enough. Even if you add the guys in the warehouse, you can protect yourself at most."

Hou San shook his head. The guys in the Sihai Warehouse were all brave people. Although they were not as good as the horse team, they could fight with swords. But that was the only thing that was the case. Gao Jin wanted to take charge of Gubei Village and needed to have the strength to suppress the big horse thieves around him.

"Mr. Guan, in my opinion, if you don't have three hundred people, you can't defend the wealth of Gubei Village?"

"Okay, what's the use of saying so much nonsense? When Xiao Gao comes, what's the idea for him?"

Mr. Guan glared at Hou San, and he suddenly understood that Hou San said so much, and this is complaining to him, and giving Gao Jin benefits!

Hou San didn't say anything anymore. He didn't deal with Gao Jin much, but he was quite familiar with Mulan and Li Laogen. The reason why he thought about Gao Jin was that Gao Jin wiped out the old nest of the black sand horse thieves, took in those poor women, and said that he wanted to sweep away the thieves. Hou San felt that Gao Jin was worthy of assistance.

Hou San was originally a scholar in Yanggao County, Datong Prefecture. He married the daughter of a teacher and was a scholar. He was full of fame and fortune. At that time, he was full of energy. But who would have thought that there would be unexpected events in the world. He brought his beautiful wife and family back to the countryside to visit relatives. As a result, he encountered the Tartars rampant, his wife and children died tragically, and he was also captured on the grassland. If he hadn't met Guan Ye, his study seed would have long become the bones on the grassland.

After suffering a tragic change, Hou San gave up his real name and realized that the Tartars were able to pass through the walls, not only because the government troops were incompetent, but also because of the generals and the Tartars. He had grudges against the so-called generals who were famous, and even the Du family behind Guan Ye, he was unwilling to deal with them more.

However, Gao Jin, who was obviously lonely and weak, dared to deal with the Tartars. When he encountered a horse thief who did evil, he would kill him. It was completely different from the children of the generals and military generals in the border areas who were called heroes. This was because Hou San was willing to speak in front of Mr. Guan for Gao Jin.

"You, I haven't let it go in so many years!"

Seeing Hou San silent, Master Guan suddenly felt soft-hearted, and then sighed. Hou San's background, how could he not know about it for so many years? But there was nothing strange about the fact that the generals here had a connection with the Tartars. That was the master who was afraid of being called "Taishi Du" by the Tartars, who had been fighting with the Tartars for half his life, but he still had to make acquiesce to some things.

Since the Ming Dynasty's rebellion against Tumu Fort, civil officials became more and more precious and military officials were low. If the Tartars were really killed to peace, the court would not treat them as border generals. Therefore, raising thieves and respecting themselves was tacitly understood by the generals and military generals in the border town.

"Master Guan, how can you let go!" Hou San, who had always seemed quite hunched, suddenly straightened his waist when he heard Master Guan's sigh, "I originally couldn't say that I could be a Juren or a Jinshi, but now I can only be an alcoholic outside the frontier. Who would be willing to do so!"

"You are right. If you change the old man, you are not willing to accept it." Mr. Guan was silent for a moment before saying this, then looked at Hou San, "But some things are gone, and the more you can't let go, the harder you are."

"I understand this principle, so Mr. Guan and Hou San just want to do something within their ability to help Mr. Gao and count the land here. Are there people like Mr. Gao who care about the safety of the people!"
