Ji Wuye didn't doubt Ji Yihu's words, but didn't believe a single word.
Can he take down the moody and scheming leader of the merchant alliance?
Don't be ridiculous, I'm afraid his stupid son was fooled by others and foolishly counted money for others, and even looked like he was enjoying it.
It seems that he should find a doctor to properly treat his son's hypochondriasis.
"Old man, you don't believe me?"
Based on Ji Yihu's understanding of his father, one look at Ji Wuye's expression and it was clear that he didn't hear a word of it at all.
"Hmph, it's just because I believe in you that I know it's impossible." With that said, Ji Wuye turned around and was about to leave, "Take good care of yourself and prepare to marry Princess Honglian. This is our chance!"
If the leader of the merchant alliance really fell in love with his son, with his domineering character, wouldn't he keep his son with him all the time, even if it was just a pretense?
Even the fact that his son returned to Korea disheveled and covered in mud might have come from that person's order.
That also proves that she has no interest in his son at all.
Although he didn't know what his son had gone through and would mistakenly think that the one actually accepted him, his son was definitely seriously ill and needed to see a doctor.
However, Ji Wuye did admire his son a little.
He actually had the courage to pursue that one person, and he came back alive.
"We're already sleeping in the same bed!" Ji Yihu shouted out when he saw Ji Wuye not believing that he was about to leave.
Ji Wuye turned around and raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at his son's extremely serious expression.
Forget it, just spend a lot of money to hire a famous doctor.
Ji Wuye sighed softly, as if he had aged more than ten years in an instant, and slowly walked out of the door.
"Major General, the general has ordered the young general to have a good rest." The maid who bumped into Ji Yihu before now walked into the room with her head lowered and said softly.
Ji Yihu glanced casually, then frowned and looked at the maid again.
He always felt that this maid seemed familiar.
"Have we met somewhere?"
The maid was shocked, thinking that the young general had recalled that she had knocked him unconscious.
"Come back to the young general, Nunu. Maybe the young general has seen the young lady before when he returned to the mansion." The maid said nervously.
Ji Yihu didn't pay much attention. All he could think about now was the woman in his dreams, so he looked away.
The maid took a careful look at Ji Yihu and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Shuli took a boat from the Medical Village again and came to a restaurant by the [Business Alliance] by the lake. Old Zhaotou had been waiting in the restaurant for a long time.
"Young Master." Old Zhaotou made a cup of hot tea for Shu Li who had just arrived, and then said, "The war in Chu that has been brewing for a long time is likely to start soon."
"Yes." Shuli picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and responded lightly.
Upon seeing this, Old Zhaotou thought Shuli was not interested, so he stopped talking and started talking about another thing.
"Young Master, a letter came from Baiyue saying that they are in urgent need of a batch of weapons and armor."
"Baiyue?" Shuli seemed to have not paid attention to Tianze and the others for a while since he 'pried' away the Baidu King, and he didn't know what was going on with them recently.
"They lost the battle again?"
This was Shu Li's deepest impression of them. They couldn't even defeat South Korea.
Old Zhaotou smiled, admitting what Shu Li said.
Although there is a steady stream of support from the [Business Alliance] behind it, Baiyue, which has been extinct for more than ten years, is no longer the weakling it used to be, and now it can barely scrape together an army.
"Tianze still has more than 80,000 people, but the real combat strength will not exceed 50,000 at most, and South Korea only sent 60,000 people to suppress them."
"In addition to the difference in military strength, the people of Baiyue are accustomed to fighting without wearing armor, so the casualties are higher."
"Tianze won't find out about this now, right?" Shuli didn't understand, "So how many soldiers does he want?"
"Thirty thousand."
"Thirty thousand?"
Shu Xi thought for a while.
At present, all the weapons stocks of the [Business Alliance] are basically being transported to Chu State immediately. If it is only a few thousand, it is okay to say that they can barely scrape it together.
But if it’s tens of thousands, it’s a bit difficult to handle.
This is also the reason why Old Zhaotou asked Shuli for instructions, because he wanted to use the power of Qin State.
"First send a batch of weapons from Chu State to Baiyue for emergency relief, so that they can hold on for a while longer." After a pause, Shuli continued, "As for Chu State, I will write a letter back to Qin State later.
.”
Although a large number of orders have been pushed to Chu State, the orders that have been accepted still need to be completed.
As a businessman, the most important thing in doing business is credibility.
"Also, Old Zhaotou, how long do you estimate it will take for the war in Chu to begin?"
Even if you use the [Qian Dagger] to send the message back to Qin at full speed, it will still take five or six days at the earliest.
(PS: Estimate: 480 kilometers from Chudu to Qindu, speed 20-30 kilometers per hour, allocated to 8 hours a day, 3-4 days)
In addition, Ying Zheng read the letter, allocated supplies, and then sent them down the waterway to Chu State.
All this back and forth would take at least ten days.
Old Zhaotou did not answer immediately, but saluted and said, "Young Master, please wait for a moment."
He's going to get some information.
Not long after, Old Zhaotou came back with several scrolls. On the scrolls were written different sending and receiving times, the transmission location and the general content.
Shu Li picked up a scroll at random and looked at it, and found that the scrolls were mostly sent out within the past two days, and received at the same time today.
In other words, the scrolls here are the latest information that has just been returned.
"This is information that was sent back early in the morning, and I haven't had time to check it yet."
Old Zhaotou's words confirmed Shu Li's conjecture.
Old Zhaotou continued, "In addition, Shaojun had previously said that the King of Chu and people from the three major families might have conspired, so his subordinates sent people to pay close attention and found that it was indeed as Shaojun expected."
"[Qian Dagger] stole a secret letter from the three major families from the Chu Palace. It is a picture of the defense deployment and troop distribution against the aristocratic forces, and the same secret letter also appeared in Xiang Yan's
Inside the tent."
Shu Li listened to Old Zhaotou's information and opened one of the scrolls.
What is recorded above is the mobilization of the troops of the three major families in the past three days. They were either moved to the rear or fell to important passes.
Judging from the distribution of this force, it seems that they have begun to spread the net across the board.
I continued to quickly look at the information sent back from other scrolls, which were basically detailed records of the recent actions of both parties.
In the eyes of the [Business Alliance], they have almost no privacy.
"Let [Qian Dagger] make some noise, at least let this war be delayed until half a month later." Shu Li put down the scroll in his hand, looked at Old Zhaotou and ordered.
As for making some small noises, that's not what Shuli needs to worry about.
She only needs to be responsible for giving orders and waiting for the final results.
As for the process, it is left to the people below to think and execute.
"only."
After Lao Zhaotou saluted, he slowly exited the room.
