The wealth of Anyi is obvious to all, but not only Pei Xiaoer can see it. In fact, some people have already coveted it.

When Pei Xiaoer's plan to plot Anyi was still on paper, someone had already taken the lead in taking action.

Anyi, a hundred miles away.

When Pei Xiaoer captured Xia County, he scared Qiao Chun, the magistrate of Anyi.

He hurriedly ordered the gate of Anyi to be closed tightly, and no one was allowed to enter or exit. At the same time, he recruited the best people in the county to go to the city tower to defend, as if facing a formidable enemy.

After half a month, the Pei family army in Xia County had no intention of attacking Anyi. But the people in Anyi City couldn't hold it in any longer. The people wanted to eat, the merchants wanted to do business, and it was almost winter.

Now, the people have to go out to cut firewood. If there is not enough firewood, people will die in winter. In short, they have to leave the city.

The county magistrate Qiao Chun could no longer withstand the surging public opinion. What he wanted was to defend the Pei family's army in Xia County, rather than force the people in the city to rebel. So he first stipulated that the city gate should be opened for two hours every day. When the city gate was opened, the people

We can enter and exit the city gate at any time according to our own needs, but we need to undergo strict inspection to prevent rogue bandits from sneaking into the city.

Later, I heard that Pei Xiaoer of Xia County not only did not attack Anyi, but instead went north to attack Wenxi County, which had fallen. The county magistrate Qiao Chun breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed the control at the city gate, allowing the people to

You can enter and exit freely, but there are still government officials checking at the city gate.

On this day, three young men dressed as farmers were walking toward Anyi carrying several bundles of firewood. They were stopped by the government officials as soon as they arrived at the city gate.

The squad leader stared at the three of them with disdain, raised his chin, and looked up to the sky, and asked maliciously: "What do you three do? Why do you want to come to Anyi?"

"Master, we three brothers came to Anyi to sell some firewood and buy some salt." A young man seemed particularly smart. He put down the firewood on his shoulders, walked quickly to the front of the class, and reached out to grab the right hand of the class leader.

, a few broken pieces of silver were quietly stuffed into the hands of the squad leader, and he said, "Master, please make it easier to pass."

The team leader weighed the money in his hands, feeling that it was almost a pound or two heavier. He was very satisfied, and a smile appeared on his face, showing his big yellow teeth.

You, go in!"

"Thank you, Mr. Cha. Thank you, Mr. Cha." The young man seemed extremely polite. After thanking the leader, he greeted the two companions behind him and hurriedly walked into the city.

After entering the city, the three of them slowed down their pace and walked towards the city in a leisurely manner. They looked around and seemed particularly interested in things in the city.

When they reached a fork in the road, the young man secretly said to the two people behind him: "Let's split up."

The two people behind him nodded at the same time and walked towards different paths.

The young man carried a large bundle of firewood on his shoulders and walked through the streets and alleys. In a long time, he walked half a circle around Anyi, a large city, and finally stopped next to an open space.

This open space was originally the place where Qiao Chun, the magistrate of Anyi County, convened the training of the people. However, after waiting around and waiting, there was still no news of Pei Xiaoer's attack, so in line with the principle of not wasting a grain of food for the country,

These civilians who only ate and did not work were sent back again. So this original military camp became an open space again.

The young man walked around the open space a few times, and carefully questioned the passers-by. After confirming that everything was correct, he left in a hurry.

After returning to the fork in the road and meeting the other two people, the young man whispered: "Have you checked everything?"

"We have checked the city wall. There are not many people guarding the city. Most of them are local police officers. Some of them were still drinking when I went there."

"We also went to the county government to have a look." Another person also said: "I spent a couple of silver to find out from people that the three classes of government officials in Anyi combined have less than 300 people."

The young man couldn't help but look happy when he heard the two talking. "Okay, I think I can defeat Anyi with one blow. Go back quickly and report to the king."

The other two nodded, and the three casually threw the firewood in their hands into an inconspicuous corner, and hurried to the city gate.

The squad leader at the gate of the city was still lying there drinking tea. When he saw the three people coming out of the city, he bowed his hands and greeted them, "You three came out very quickly. It seems that there is a lot of business in this city."

Pretty easy to do, right?"

"Yes, yes." The young man nodded with a smile, "I didn't expect Anyi to be so rich. The firewood the three of us carried was sold out within a few streets. There wasn't even a counter-offer. How generous.

!”

"Really? Our city, Anyi, has been a prosperous place since ancient times. Next to it is Jiechi. It really belongs to God to provide food for you. You don't have to be rich even if you don't want to be rich. If you can sell firewood here, I guarantee that you will be able to do so in a few years.

Make a fortune.

But, our Mr. Qiao from Anyi has been very strict lately, maybe there will be martial law again in two days, and we won’t be able to come over to do business.”

The squad leader looked at the three of them with a smile, but complained about the inconvenience of getting in and out of Anyi.

The young man was certainly a smart and intelligent person. When he saw the look of the class leader, he immediately understood what he meant and cursed in his heart, this greedy thief. However, with a flattering smile on his face, he approached the class leader.

Next to his head, he took his hand and placed another ingot of silver in his hand.

"There are several people of the same age in our village who will be doing business in the next two days, so I would like to ask Mr. Chai to take care of them then."

The squad leader weighed the money in his hands and felt that this time it was much larger than the one in the morning. He couldn't help but feel happy, but his face became more and more pretentious and he continued: "It's easy to talk, my little brother is so understanding and pleasant, here.

Anyi will make a fortune sooner or later."

"Then I would like to thank you for your kind words. If there is nothing else, we brothers will leave first."

"Well, let's go." The team leader was obviously full of money this time, and he waved his hand to them nonchalantly, signaling them to leave quickly.

Watching the three people leaving, the team leader couldn't help but think that next time there were a lot of them, they would have to order more. Speaking of which, these people were really generous! They were so damn rich.

On the other side, the youth of Sanmin hurriedly returned to a manor. From the outside, this manor looked no different from an ordinary manor, but inside it was stained with blood. A plaque with the words "Ji Shan Home" was thrown casually at his feet.

, and even some places are still burning.
