Xiaosheng is really not a nerd Chapter 670 The Gu family is majestic
Xie Fu smiled and said: "I am now preparing to transport the silver to the states in the east of the Yangtze River."
Gu Chong took the initiative and said: "Master Xie, let Chongzi Guards escort you to avoid being robbed by bandits along the way."

It's not that Xie Fu didn't think of these concerns, but transportation already consumes a lot of manpower, and escorting can't be comprehensive. After listening to Gu Chong's words, he said happily: "Then I'll have to help Chief Guard Gu."
"Thank you, Mr. Sir, there is no need to be polite, just call the villain by his name."
Xie Fu said: "It's just that I have eighteen fleets, and your number may be a bit stretched."
Gu Chong smiled: "Young Master Xie, you are worrying too much. There are forty guards in the Tiger Guard. Most of them are at the Rudongyuan Campus and can be reached in a quarter of an hour."
Xie Fu said: "There are forty elites among the elites like you."
Gu Chong did not answer Xie Fu's question. He turned to his deputy and said, "Master Xie needs more manpower. Please return to the school grounds to inform him immediately."
After finishing speaking, he reported to Xie Fu: "Thank you, Mr. Xie, as soon as you go, you will come back. The man will be here in two quarters of an hour."
Xie Fu secretly thought to himself that being able to mobilize personnel and arrive so quickly would definitely be like a war coming from heaven.
"Chief Gu, time is pressing, so Raul and others will escort the first convoy to Huzhou."
"Thank you, sir, for your peace of mind!"
One by one, the convoys were escorted away by Gu Jiazi guards.
Ye Yui couldn't help but thank Fu and said: "With these guards escorting us, nothing will go wrong. Brother Fu, you can actually mobilize such personnel, I am really impressed."
Xie Fu responded: "I would also like to thank Third Master for your love for me!"
Ye Yui smiled and said: "Isn't it because of the fairy court?"
Xie Fu smiled and said: "That's right."
…
There is an army stationed at the gate of the city. It is the temporarily mobilized Zhechongfu Buwu Battalion, led by the seventh-grade Zhechongfu Xiaowei.
The soldier came to report: "Sir, the convoy from Tantai Mansion is here."
Colonel Bu Wu nodded: "Get ready."
As soon as the convoy arrived at the door, it was stopped by soldiers, and a loud voice came: "To prevent anyone from smuggling food out of the city, all people leaving the city need to be searched closely."
The leader of the transport convoy immediately stepped forward and said with a smile: "General, we are a convoy from Tantai Prefecture, and we are preparing to transport silver to Huzhou."
At the same time, he quietly handed over a piece of silver in his hand. If he met a government soldier on weekdays, he only needed to give his name to the Tantai Mansion, and the other party would be able to help him.
Captain Bu Wu directly threw the money to the ground and shouted coldly: "Trying to bribe this general, search!"
At this moment, the sound of galloping horses came, the sound was loud and neat, like a horn.
Gu Chong, who was following closely behind the convoy, led the Eighteen Chongzi Guards to the front.
Eighteen people were on horseback, none of them dismounted. They looked arrogant, condescending and majestic. The momentum of this group was immediately reduced by a lot.
It can be said that the Zhechong Fu Infantry Battalion can be regarded as a regular army that can fight. It does not need ordinary government servants, but compared with this Chongzi Guard, it immediately looks like a small soldier.
Lieutenant Buwu was surprised, and his expression suddenly became serious. He had never eaten pork and had never seen a pig run away.
Gu family tiger guard!
Although the Gu family's Tiger Guards are very low-key and stay at Rudongyuan campus all year round, they are well-known. When I saw them today, it turned out that they were all tigers and wolves.
After all, he was a seventh-grade captain, but the other party didn't even bother to glance at him.
Gu Chong said coldly: "The Chongzi Guards of the Gu family were ordered by the third master to escort the convoy out of the city. Bandits appeared out of nowhere to block the road and rob."
The eighteen guards immediately displayed their bright weapons at the same time and shouted in unison: "Where are these robbers from? They don't know whether to live or die!"
Captain Bu Wu was stunned when he heard this. Is the other party blind? They are all wearing military uniforms, so who are they?
Seeing that the other party looked like they were murderous and wanted to kill them as bandits, a chill immediately ran down their backs.
The tiger guards found a reason and dared to kill them as bandits.
Immediately, he took the initiative to reveal his identity: "We are the Buwu Camp of Zhechong Prefecture. Everything is a misunderstanding!"
After saying this, he moved out of the way as an example, and his subordinates also gave way to both sides.
"Walk!"
Gu Chong led his cavalry to clear the way out of the city, and this step of the army seemed to be sending them off.
After the rush guard and the convoy had gone away, the deputy asked in a low voice: "Sir, are you just going to let them go like this? When General Zhu arrives..."
Lieutenant Buwu interrupted: "Are you blind? They are the guards of the Gu family. If they kill you, you will die unjustly. No one will stand up for us?"
"There are more than a hundred of us, how can we be afraid of a dozen of them?"
Lieutenant Buwu snorted coldly: "You are still ignorant, look at the ground."
The deputy looked at the ground following what Colonel Bu Wu pointed at, and saw cracks on the stone slab where the horse's hooves had just stopped.
Colonel Buwu said: "This crack was caused by the moment the guard showed his weapon and saw the lock."
The deputy was shocked: "A martial artist."
Lieutenant Buwu said in a deep voice: "Even if you 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 a dead soul under their swords at this moment."
"After all, we are a well-organized army. Do they really dare to kill us?"
Lieutenant Bu Wu snorted: "Don't doubt the ability of the Gu family. Even if the Gu family is in trouble now and the news reaches the court, the court will not only pretend to be dumb and deaf, but also cover up for the Gu family.
"If you really dare to attack the Gu family, the world will immediately be in chaos. Do you think this guard dares to kill people? Do you think General Zhu can avenge us?"
Upon hearing this, cold sweat broke out on the back of my deputy's arm.
At this moment, another subordinate came to report: "Sir, another convoy from Tantai Mansion has arrived."
Lieutenant Bu Wu was not impatient, but asked: "Are there any guards accompanying me?"
"Yes, Gu family guard."
Lieutenant Bu Wu took a breath of air: "Withdraw!"
But he didn't even have the courage to meet the Gu family's tiger guards.
…
As soon as Zhu Shide returned to the hall, a group of grain merchants immediately surrounded him: "Master Zhu..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhu Shide turned a deaf ear and ordered loudly: "Make me a cup of tea right away!"
I sat down and rinsed my mouth with tea. I had never been so humiliated in my life, having someone stuff my mouth with shoes and boots!
It's just that the person who gave him this humiliation was someone he 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 looked around the hall and said calmly: "Why are you panicking? I'm not back. I'm a member of the Zhu family. Even Lu Tao doesn't dare to do anything to me."
These words also reminded everyone present that he still had Zhu Clan's backing and there was no need to be afraid of Lu Tao.
After all the grain merchants looked at each other, one of them spoke first: "Mr. Zhu, something bad is going to happen."
Zhu Shide looked calm and calm: "What's the matter? Tell me!"
"Changzhou, Huzhou, Muzhou, and Mingzhou were overtaken by Tantai Heqing, and we gained nothing."
Zhu Shide was furious when he heard this: "These people dare to defect in front of the battle! Don't you want to hang out?"
"No! Tantai Heqing was the first to buy grain from farmers, and our people were late."
Zhu Shide blurted out: "That's nonsense. Tantai Heqing is a cloth merchant, not a grain merchant."
Every industry has its own channels. Zhu Shide could not imagine the possibility of a layman stealing business from them in such a long period of time.
And this is not one household per household, but four entire states, thousands of farmers, which Zhu Shide can hardly imagine.
Another older and seemingly more stable grain merchant said: "Mr. 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 ignored us and took the initiative to send grain to Tantai Heqing and sell it to her like crazy."
Zhu Shide asked: "How did Tantai Heqing do it?"
“When purchasing grain with cash, the purchase price is directly increased by 50% compared to previous years.”
When Zhu Shide heard this, he couldn't help but be amazed by the other party's courage. Although he was a competitor, he was also impressed with admiration and asked: "Where can Tantai Heqing get so much cash?"
Silver needs to be transported slowly, but it cannot be delivered in such a timely manner.
"I do not know about this."
Another grain merchant said: "I have received some news that Tantai Heqing asked local cloth merchants for help. The money should be temporarily borrowed from these cloth merchants, and the manpower and fleet should also belong to these grain merchants.
"
Zhu Shide blurted out: "What an amazing woman!"
Even if he handles this matter personally, he may not be able to handle it as well as Tantai Heqing.
What kind of talents, connections, persuasiveness, leadership skills does this woman have...
He is simply a born king!
To be honest, Zhu Shide didn't take his opponent seriously from the beginning. All he was worried about was Lu Clan and Gu Clan meddling behind the scenes.
Unexpectedly, Tantai Heqing used his fair and honest business methods to make him fail in his first battle.
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 anymore.
He asked in a serious tone: "What should we do now?"
The hall was silent for a while, and then the steady grain merchant said: "Changzhou, Huzhou, Muzhou, and Mingzhou are all lost. Spending time and energy on these four states will not help. Now we should follow the way of others."
Compete with Tantai Heqing for enough food in other state capitals."
Someone echoed: "Yes! After all, we are familiar with this trip, and our manpower is spread all over Jiangnan East Road. We only need an express letter to go anywhere and anytime. It is no more hands-on than Tantai Heqing."
Zhu Shide said loudly: "Then why are you still standing there? You should be one step faster than your opponent."
…
The two competing parties competed to purchase grain in various places in Jiangnan East Road. Just as Jiangnan grain merchants said, they already had a foundation in various places and could take action anytime and anywhere.
But Tantai Heqing needs to do it personally 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 entire Jiangnan East Road grain merchants.
Things did not go as smoothly as they did in the first few days, and we missed several states one after another.
A carriage traveling through the night was walking along the pipeline.
The person sitting in the carriage was none other than Tantai Heqing. He was doing business during the day and traveling at night. This was the case for the past few days.
Tantai Heqing 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.
