Chapter 204: People are concerned about the wealth of the big bargain hunter(2/3)

Dahu took out his telescope, looked back and forth and frowned: "Brother Yuan, there is someone following us on horseback. He looks a bit like the man painted by Mr. Zhao. He hung up our convoy in Hexian County and followed us all the way to Pingxian County. He was always there

A mile away!"

Wang Yuan frowned and asked: "Are you riding a rogue horse? Do you have a sword?"

In this era, many people travel and are willing to hang behind a large group of people.

Mainly just want to be safe!

"It's a rogue horse, and he also carries a sword. His costume is exactly the same as what Master Zhao painted!"

Dahu looked solemn.

With a telescope to explore the road, he can clearly see things six or seven miles away!

"That's okay!"

Wang Yuan's eyes darkened: "Let Uncle Tieshan take the black-armored veteran and capture him for questioning. Don't hurt anyone first!"

Everything has a coincidence, so arrest the person first to see if it is related to Leng Yun!

It’s never too late to make a decision!

With two veterans in black armor, Yu Tieshan fell behind the team and galloped away!

A mile away, the middle-aged man's pupils shrank. The instinct he had developed over many years of life and death made him feel the danger. He slapped the horse's butt and ran towards the road.

When he found out that Wang Yuan's guards were extraordinary, he didn't dare to follow him too close and kept following him from a mile away!

How come he was discovered by his people? Do his people have the eyesight of a sharpshooter?

Yu Tieshan and the three men are chasing after him!

On a horse, Wang Yuan held up a telescope and looked at a group of figures chasing each other.

It seems that this person is the one who killed the bandits in Qinglong Gorge and came to find Leng Yun!

Looking at such superb riding skills, he is also a battle-hardened figure!

Could it be that he was sent by the rebel King Fukuyama!

The four of them disappeared from sight!

The team of carriages and horses stopped and waited!

An hour later, Yu Tieshan took two black veterans and galloped back!

Two veterans in black armor, their chests and clothes were torn, and the iron lining was exposed.

Wang Yuan stepped forward and asked, "Are you injured?"

Two veterans in black armor held up the iron piece and smiled: "Thank you, sir, for inventing the inner armor."

Wang Yuan smiled bitterly.

This is what inner armor is, it means that all the way to the city, the team cannot wear armor.

He was also afraid of encountering bandits, so he imitated the Ming Dynasty cloth face armor and put iron pieces under his clothes.

The defense is not as good as fish scale armor!

But it is easy to disassemble and difficult to see!

Yu Tieshan looked guilty and said: "Sir, we chased into the woods, and he ambushed us in the woods. Fortunately, we have the inner armor you invented, otherwise the two brothers would have gotten in. But he didn't feel well either, and I slashed him

I felt red, but he knew how to use concealed weapons, so I didn’t dare to pursue him anymore, for fear of being plotted by him and capsizing him in the gutter.”

"Uncle Tieshan, you did the right thing! No matter what we do, our safety comes first!"

Wang Yuan chuckled: "With the telescope, let's take the initiative and catch him sooner or later! Let's go!"

The group moves on!

We arrived in Pingshan County before dark, booked an inn, and started eating, washing, and resting!

Early the next morning, after Wang Yuan had eaten at his stand, the carriage and horse team were just getting ready to set off.

A luxurious carriage drove up, and a middle-aged man with a big belly got out of the carriage.

Longnan County City!

Last night, a group of cavalry rode straight to the government office, headed by Wei Cheng, a general in bright light armor.

He turned over and dismounted, and quickly came to the backyard of the government office. He saluted the red-robed official, who was embroidered with landscape patterns, and said hurriedly: "Sir, I have received news that Wang Yuan's son has come to Longnan County to do business!"

Years ago, the imperial court not only issued an edict to scold him for his incompetence, but also demoted his generals to partial generals!

It took him five years and five thousand taels of silver to be promoted from general to general.

There are so many rebels in various places, and there are so many rebels in one county that the generals in one county cannot defeat them!

If Wang Yuan'er hadn't led the soldiers to capture the Green Faced Beast, how could he be demoted due to his incompetence?

These days, he has been holding back this breath, looking for an opportunity to take revenge!

Not only him, but also the prefect was demoted, from the fourth rank to the fourth rank.

Pei Xian, the magistrate of Longnan, said with a smile: "I have also received the news, what are you going to do?"

"Simple!"

Wei Cheng's eyes darkened: "His people are all equipped with weapons. Send people to set up checkpoints to intercept and inspect him, and stuff a few sets of armor and crossbows into his goods, and then he can be arrested legitimately. When he arrives at the prison, there will be

Kill him in a hundred ways!"

"you're right!"

Pei Xianzheng, the prefect of Longnan, hummed: "But what good will this do to us!"

"Of course there are benefits!"

Wei Cheng said excitedly: "Sir, you and I were both demoted due to him. Only by getting rid of him can we take revenge!"

Pei Xianzheng, the magistrate of Longnan, hummed: "Then what's the use of revenge!"

"..."

Hearing the profound meaning in the words, Wei Cheng clasped his fists and bowed his head: "Please make it clear, Lord Magistrate!"

"I know you hate that kid, and I hate him to death, but is it useful to just kill him to vent your anger?"

Pei Xian, the magistrate of Longnan, said with a serious face: "It's useless. If we want to reinstate the official, we still have to send money to the higher authorities and find someone to help us speak!"

Wei Cheng came to his senses: "What do you mean, sir?"

Pei Xianzheng, the magistrate of Longnan, smiled slightly: "I heard that that kid made a lot of money during the Jiushan County War and made millions of dollars at a time. Now that he has caused us so much trouble, we should let him shed some blood to apologize.

Already."

Wei Cheng's eyes lit up: "I'll make arrangements right away!"

"Your methods are a bit extreme. Don't use them unless absolutely necessary. Someone in the court is optimistic about him!"

Pei Xianzheng waved his hand: "I have already made arrangements. If he is sensible, he doesn't have to make it so bloody!"

Wei Cheng frowned: "But I heard that boy has a bad temper and doesn't seem to be a sensible and obedient person!"

Pei Xianzheng squinted his eyes with a cold light: "If he doesn't know what's interesting, then use your method to make him know what's interesting!"



The middle-aged man who came down from the carriage was wearing a satin robe, a military hat, a fine white jade hanging from his waist, and a pair of bright eyes, giving him a very shrewd impression.

The innkeeper bent forward and apologized: "Why are the magpies chirping on the branches early this morning? It turns out that Mr. Fang is here. Please come in and invite me!"

The middle-aged man didn't answer anything and threw out a greeting card: "Give it to the prince who came to stay at your hotel last night!"

The shopkeeper took the invitation and ran into the yard, arriving at the door of Wang Yuan's room.

"Fang Buddha moves!"

Looking at the name on the greeting card, Wang Yuan was slightly surprised: "Who is this Master Fang?"

I came to stay at night last night, and this person wanted to visit early in the morning, and I didn’t even know him yet!

The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Master Fang is a great philanthropist in our Ping County. He is good at charity, builds bridges and roads, gives gruel to disaster relief, adopts orphans and widows, builds temples, and does good deeds. Even the county magistrate respects him!"

Wang Yuan frowned: "I want to hear the truth!"

The big tiger on the side took out an ingot of five taels of silver.

The shopkeeper happily took the money, but he was still very conservative and said: "Master Wang, Mr. Fang is a powerful man in our Ping County. He is known as Fang Bancheng. He owns less than half of the houses in Ping County. Even the county magistrate wants to avoid him."

I heard that it is related in the county and city, but I don’t know about other small ones!"

It turned out to be a powerful person from the county. Wang Yuan said expressionlessly: "Then invite him over!"

The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief and trotted out the door.

Not long after, two servants carried food boxes, and Fang Fodong came in with clasped fists: "Master Wang, your Majesty is coming to Ping County. Why don't you send someone to notify Fang and let him show his loyalty to the landlord? It's not worth it to be early."

It’s expensive, but it’s all made by a master chef, and the taste is quite decent!”

The two servants immediately opened the food boxes and brought them out in plates and dishes. The aroma was overflowing.
