Not long after Fang Jue led the team to leave, An Daolun returned and reappeared in public view.
"Master, will Young Master be angry if you avoid him like this?"
Outside the city gate, the master and the apprentice watched the newly sent food team, and they looked at each other in a playful manner.
An Daolun was stunned when he heard this: "I can't afford to offend him, so why can't I afford to hide from you?"
"Young Master paid with cash this time." An Baili felt that the Young Master was not as cunning as Master said.
Isn't this quite a business deal?
"You still have the nerve to talk about banknotes?"
An Daolun was speechless: "I have seen those banknotes, and they are all issued by Taishan Bank, which belongs to Emperor Zun Pavilion."
"Taishan Bank?"
An Baili suddenly realized: "Is it fake?"
"How is it possible? That boy can't give you such a handle," An Daolun shook his head, "The bank note is real, but..."
There are some things that cannot be told to the apprentice too early, so An Daolun cannot explain them clearly.
What the young apprentice doesn't know is that An Daolun himself also works for Emperor Zun Pavilion!
Taishan Bank is run by Emperor Zun Pavilion. Although it is not the best bank in the world, it is the best and most reputable bank in the world.
And all the money An Daolun earns is from Taishan Bank.
Fang Jue used money from Taishan Bank to buy food from Tai'an Chamber of Commerce... Isn't this right-handed?
No one in Emperor Zun Pavilion or Fang Jue suffered any loss, only An Daolun, a wage earner, had to work in vain.
An Daolun became more and more angry as he thought about it. He looked at the food team going away and said speechlessly: "In addition to rations, I also want all kinds of food. It's just for disaster relief. He wants to set a precedent. How many people will hate him..."
"Ah?" An Baili was still thinking about the half-sentence that Master just left unfinished.
"Oh shit, go back and prepare the next batch of goods. This order is in vain, but luckily you won't lose money."
…
Suzhou.
When Fang Jue saw Ye Hongyi and others, they were all injured.
"What happened? Who did it?"
When he saw the blood-stained cuffs of Ye Hongyi's clothes and an obvious scratch, he felt an unknown anger in his heart.
Ye Hongyi smiled and said nonchalantly: "It's okay, I just encountered a tough idea and underestimated the enemy."
"Is it okay?" Fang Jue asked Qin Mengchi hurriedly. She was born in a family and had excellent medical skills. "Is it poisonous or damaging the meridians?"
Qin Mengchi smiled and said: "Don't worry, young master, Hongyi's injury is not a problem. It will heal in a few days. My golden sore medicine will not even leave any scars."
"That's good." Fang Jue nodded.
Then they started asking what happened to them.
"The journey was very safe, and many people were arrested. Along the way, we ordered the county governments to bring people to escort us. Just when we were approaching Suzhou, we encountered some remaining Beiliang troops and were attacked."
Qin Mengchi said: "One of them was a fourth-rank general from the Northern Liang Army. He injured several of us, and was finally captured by Hong Yi with a hidden weapon."
hidden weapon?
Fang Jue glanced at Ye Hongyi.
Ye Hongyi nodded, indicating that it was that thing.
Fortunately... Fang Jue was extremely lucky to have given Ye Hongyi a handful of those things for self-defense.
The little thing has already achieved success twice!
"Is this what Bai Qing said, the surprise you gave me?" Fang Jue's eyes lit up, and the two of them mentioned being a fourth-grade military attache.
Ye Hongyi answered and said: "That man has good martial arts skills. After we captured him, Sister Qin tortured him and found out that he was actually a fourth-grade military attache of the Beiliang Army and a personal guard military attache of the commander Luo Yang."
Luo Yang has a title, he is a first-grade military attache of Beiliang, and as a marquis, it is normal to have a fourth-grade military attache as a guard.
But what makes Fang Jue confused is that such a high-level military attache and a confidant of Luo Yang cannot be treated as an abandoned son like a dead soldier.
The fact that this person remains in the country is definitely not an oversight, but a deliberate act.
"Let's go, take me to see him." Fang Jue said seriously.
"We detained him at the Xuanjian Division's station," Ye Hongyi said.
This person was captured by the Xuanjian Division, so the credit goes to the Xuanjian Division. The Xuanjian Division was also responsible for the series of interrogations, and there was no need to report it to the local government.
Under the leadership of Ye Hongyi and Qin Mengchi, Fang Jue quickly met this person.
A burly man dressed in tattered refugee clothes was wrapped in chains and tied to a cross.
His blood had stained his skin and clothes. It was obvious that he had been beaten and he was now honest.
"You...are Young Master Daxia?"
The first time he saw Fang Jue, the man asked.
Fang Jue handed over his hand and said, "Jue below, haven't you asked your name?"
"Fang Hong, we are still the same family." The man smiled, not looking so scared, and his expression was very calm.
My family?
Fang Jue shook his head, thinking that my surname is not Fang. I don’t know the name of the original owner of this body.
"Fang Hong...you don't look so weak that you can be easily beaten until your identity is revealed."
This person's spirit is not sluggish at all, he is lazy and casual, as if he has everything under control.
There is no consciousness of being a prisoner at all.
Fang Hong chuckled: "You are indeed a young master... Mr. Luo always said that I must kill you at all costs. I always felt that it was a bit of a fuss."
"It seems you are worthy of being targeted."
"Then I have to thank you, Luo Shuai, for your respect?" Fang Jue rolled his eyes.
Speaking of Luo Yang, Fang Jue became very angry and regretted that he should not talk about martial ethics.
"You lost this fight, Master Young Master."
Suddenly, Fang Hong said disdainfully: "We have already obtained grain. In a few years, we will not have to raise troops to plunder, and can develop in peace... One day, our soldiers and horses will come to the city..."
"Are you awake?"
Fang Jueleng said: "Do you think that with those things, you are enough to compete with me?"
Not to mention such a small amount, even if Beiliang is given new grain reserves equivalent to Daxia, they will not be able to surpass Daxia.
Especially when I was still in Daxia.
If you think that new food is the most important thing, you are totally wrong. This is just the first step for Fangjue.
"What if there is another magical weapon that can spit out fire?" Fang Hong suddenly sneered and looked at Fang Jue proudly.
"Musket?"
Fang Jue looked at this person with a look of shock on his face.
Then he looked at Ye Hongyi and others beside him.
"The one hundred musketry cavalry of the Musket Bureau lost more than ten people. Naturally, there were muskets left on the battlefield and they got them." Ye Hongyi nodded.
"So that thing is called a musket?"
"It's long and can breathe fire. It's really appropriate." Fang Hong nodded.
Fang Jue frowned: "Do you still know about muskets?"
Now, Fang Jue immediately understood why there was still a fourth-grade military attache in the territory.
Coming for the musket!
If there is still this purpose, then it is understandable why Luo Yang would do this.
Musket...
"When the musket came out for the first time, it injured Bai Qing, so it naturally became famous in some circles." Ye Hongyi said.
Qin Mengchi looked strange and curled his lips.
"No, it's just a legend. I won't let a coach, Luo Yang, who is the third best player in the world, spend so much time."
Fang Jue stared at Fang Hong coldly: "You must have extremely high-ranking spies in our Daxia capital, who know the power of muskets, and know that I will bring a team of muskets out this time... I didn't say
Wrong?"
Luo Yang's original goal was actually a musket!
No wonder.
No wonder he deliberately provokes and creates various means to show off his strength and reveal his trump cards.
It turned out to be to test the musket and to seize it!
"I have already ordered that all musketeers should smash their muskets once they are in danger, but it seems that you still got the sample... I really want to know how you got it?" Fang Jue asked sincerely.
Fang Hong said proudly: "It's very simple. There are some of our people in the Great Xia Forbidden Army, and they happened to be among the 100 people you selected for this expedition... On the day you were attacked, he deliberately fell off his horse and handed the musket to us.
"
"At this moment, our people should have returned to Beiliang with the samples."
Fang Jue turned his head and looked at Ye Hongyi and Qin Mengchi.
Is this the surprise you said you gave me?
We all went to grandma's house, where did the surprise come from?
"cough……"
Qin Mengchi said awkwardly: "When we tortured him, that's not what he said..."
Ye Hongyi nodded sheepishly.
Fang Jue didn't even ask what they had found out during the torture. With Fang Hong's attitude, most of the things he told were not credible.
"I got a complete musket. With the skills of our Beiliang craftsmen, we can easily reproduce it!"
Fang Hong is very confident.
Fang Jue glanced at him coldly: "I don't know where you get your confidence."
