After seeing the colorful world, Wei Laosan was already a little distraught. Coupled with the matter of his nephew, he also had some opinions about Zheng Fang and the Zhenyuan Escort Agency.
It happened that at this time, Zheng Fang fired his nephew in accordance with the rules of the escort agency jointly formulated by Jin Feng and Zhang Liang.
Wei Laosan was completely disappointed with the escort agency, and the secret agent finally took action and successfully bribed Wei Laosan.
In fact, there are many people like this hidden line, but this hidden line was lucky and got on this line before Jin Feng reused Wei Laosan.
Because of this, Zhong Ming's team was not very strict in investigating hidden clues. After all, the two had a good relationship when Wei Laosan was firing the kiln.
It can be said that in order to bribe Wei Laosan, the secret team and the entire team behind him have been busy for more than a year.
Likewise, their gains were also huge.
Not only did it destroy all the hot air balloons in the warehouse, it also seriously injured the Ninth Princess and burned many villagers and houses to death.
"Madam, I'm sorry, I didn't do my job well, please punish me, madam!"
Xiaoyu lowered her head and said.
Since the last attack on the ninth princess Guan Xiaorou, the village has launched an internal investigation.
A few days ago, Wei Laosan's nephew left Xihewan with his family, and went to the Zhongming Group to say hello, saying that he was going to visit relatives in the county government, and that he would let the undercover agent and his entourage live in their house for a few days.
The secret agent has a good relationship with Wei Laosan. When he comes to Xihewan to purchase goods, he often stays at his house, and Zhong Ming's team doesn't pay much attention to it.
As a result, the secret agent and his entourage assassinated the ninth princess.
As the leader of the Zhongming Group, Xiaoyu indeed has an unshirkable responsibility.
"Is it useful to punish you now? Hurry up and disperse your people and capture Wei Laosan!"
Guan Xiaorou said coldly.
"Yes!" Xiaoyu quickly ran out.
Wei Laosan threw too many jars of kerosene into the village, and the villagers worked until dark before they finally put out the fires all over the village.
A total of twenty or thirty families' houses in the village were burned down, and the textile factory was almost completely burned to the ground.
In addition to property damage, dozens of villagers were burned to death, and more than a hundred people suffered burn injuries.
The harm caused by a traitor is greater than when the bandits besieged Xihewan.
All the villagers in Xihewan who learned about Wei Laosan's behavior were filled with hatred.
Unfortunately, the arrest operation was as Guan Xiaorou expected, and the escorts failed to capture Wei Laosan.
This cannot be blamed on the pursuing escorts. The surrounding terrain was too complex. Wei Laosan flew over several mountains in a hot air balloon, and the escorts had to ride for half a day on horseback.
By the time they found the hot air balloon in the ravine, Wei Laosan had already gone to nowhere.
"Check it for me!" Guan Xiaorou lost her temper in a rare moment: "Post Wei Laosan's portrait, we will never let him leave Jinchuan alive!"
However, Dakang's communications were lagging behind, and Wei Laosan had advisers to help plan an escape route. The probability of catching him was lower than that of Iron Hammer finding Jin Feng in the East China Sea.
At this time, Wei Laosan had followed the people sent by the counselor and took a shortcut to the border of Jinchuan County.
As long as they climbed over this mountain, they would be out of Jinchuan.
Wei Laosan stood on the top of the mountain and looked in the direction of Xihewan with extremely complicated eyes.
He is not a professional assassin and cannot have a heart of steel.
After all, after living in Xihewan for half his life, Wei Laosan felt uncomfortable when half of the village was burned down at once, and so many villagers who met every day were burned to death.
"Mr. Wei, stop looking. There is no turning back when you shoot your bow. You can't go back now."
The guard responsible for protecting Wei Laosan said with a smile: "Let's hurry a little while it's still dark and try to reach Ci'er Ridge tonight."
"Yes, there is no turning back when you shoot a bow!"
Wei Laosan sighed and looked back: "Have my family made arrangements?"
"Don't worry, everything has been arranged."
The guard flattered and said with a smile: "They are all waiting for you at Qierling. After meeting, they will leave for the capital immediately!"
"Do you recognize what Lao Yuan promised me?" Wei Laosan asked.
Lao Yuan was the secret agent who bribed him. Before taking action, he promised him many benefits.
However, Qin Ming had already killed the Ninth Princess in secret, and Wei Laosan was worried that the other party would regret it.
"Mr. Wei, what are you talking about? Of course we all recognize what Mr. Yuan promised!"
The guard patted his chest and said: "One thousand taels of silver, a large courtyard with three entrances and three exits in the capital, ten girls from Jinyue Pavilion, and thirty slaves and slaves are all prepared for you.
Our master also said that as long as you can make a hot air balloon in the capital, all the things you just mentioned can be doubled again!"
"Make everything five times? Isn't that five thousand taels of silver, five large courtyards, fifty girls, and more than a hundred slaves and slaves?"
Wei Laosan's breathing couldn't help but become heavier.
Although Jin Feng valued Wei Laosan and paid him a good salary, it was far from this level.
"Mr. Wei, now you know our master's sincerity, right?"
The guard approached Mr. Wei: "When Mr. Wei becomes rich, don't forget about my little brother!"
"Brother, don't worry, if I can really get five sets of yards, I'll give you one set!"
Wei Laosan said boldly.
"Then thank you Mr. Wei."
When the guard said this, he leaned into Wei Laosan's ear and whispered: "Mr. Wei is so generous, so I won't hide it from you. Our master also said that as long as you make grenades, the conditions just now will be doubled, and we will
My master will arrange for a county magistrate to do it for my husband!"
In the feudal era, county magistrates were called parent officials.
For mountain people like Wei Laosan who have never seen the world, the county magistrate is like a super official like the sky.
After all, officials at higher levels are not accessible to them.
This kind of temptation is greater for Wei Laosan than the girl from Yinzi Zhaizi.
It's a pity that he can only make hot air balloons but not grenades. He can only shake his head and say: "Sorry, I can't!"
"Does the gentleman know anyone who knows how to make grenades?" The guard then asked: "Our master said that as long as you find someone who can make grenades, you can also be the county magistrate."
"I seem to have heard that the people who made the grenades were all death row inmates that Mr. found from outside. Outsiders have no access to them." Wei Laosan shook his head again: "I don't know such people."
"All right."
The guard actually knew about the death row prisoners. He just asked casually with the idea of giving it a try. When he found out that Wei Laosan really didn't know, he gave up.
He pulled out his saber and cut away the thorns on the roadside: "Sir, let's hurry on. Your family is still waiting in Cier Ridge."
"good!"
Wei Laosan nodded and followed the guards down the hill.
However, at this moment, an arrow suddenly flew out of the grass in the distance and hit the guard in the neck.
The other guards immediately drew their sabers and tried to surround Wei Laosan.
However, more arrows flew out of the grass, and in just a few breaths, all the guards protecting Wei Laosan were killed.
A group of men in black emerged from the grass. The leader pointed at Wei Laosan and asked: "Are you the Wei Laosan who can make a hot air balloon?"
