MTL - Fight the Giants-Chapter 821 Up and down

  Chapter 821 Rising brightly and falling darkly

  The news of Mu Yan's distress in the army quickly reached Huo Xi's ears.

  She secretly called Xun Wu, Zhen Liu and others.

   commanded: "Five stewards, immediately send someone to check the Jun family's business in Yunnan, as well as the current inventory and shipments of all shops, and which merchants are cooperating with them. Find out carefully, and I will be useful."

"yes."

   "The sixth steward will contact Guangfengshui's shopkeeper in the southwest and ask them to prepare enough goods."

   "Yes, ma'am."

   Then he asked Gen Qi again, "The eldest son is in Brown's jade mine, which other company has shares in it?"

  Gen Qi replied: "Reporting to Madam, only the eldest son, the Jun family and Wuzhi's family hold shares in it now. The eldest son holds four shares, and the Jun family and Wuzhi chieftain's mansion each hold three shares."

  Wuzhi chieftain mansion?

  The Jun family looked at Mu Zhan and acted with winks. If Mu Zhan wants to sell, the Jun family will not have another word. It's just that Wu Zhi will listen to him?

  Huo Xi pondered for a moment, "If the eldest son wants to sell that mine, can Wu Zhi let it go?"

Gen Qi nodded: "Actually, the jade mine was snatched by Wu Zhi from others. He was afraid of retaliation, so he reluctantly transferred it to the eldest son. It was said to be the dowry of the eldest lady, but in fact it was run by the eldest son. The prince asked us to encourage the eldest son to sell the jade mine before, but now the matter is half done, but the price still cannot be negotiated, and the other party's asking price is too high."

   "I wonder if you want to buy it from the eldest son?"

"I don't know. We act cautiously. The prince's properties in Yunnan are all under other people's names, and there are others who are in charge of him. Even if we check the yamen, we can't find the prince's name. Moreover, the name that is hung also has a background, and we dare not provoke it. Ma'am, don't worry."

   "That's good." Huo Xi nodded, "Should you continue to talk, drag the other party first, and wait for my instructions."

"yes."

   After two days, the information about Jun's property in the southwest has been sent to Huo Xi.

  Seeing that the Jun family has also done a large amount of business with the various tribes of Xifan, they had to send a lot of food, salt, cloth, etc. to trade there. Instantly had an idea.

   "Mobilize people from Zhuangzi, and be sure to stop Jun's shipment to Xifan on the way. No matter what method is used, they must be prevented from delivering on time."

  Xifan is now in the season of heavy snowfall, and is waiting for food, salt, cloth and other items to continue their lives. If Jun’s delivery fails, the various departments of Xifan will become annoyed and will demand a large amount of liquidated damages from Jun’s.

  Besides, at this time, the large number of horses, cattle and sheep that Xifan planned to trade with the Jun family, not only could not be sold, but also consumed a lot of food. If they stayed for one more day, they would have to compete with the living for food.

  It will be snow-covered on the side of Xifan, and it is winter at home, and it is a time when there is a shortage of food. As long as it works properly, not only can Jun's family delay the delivery and pay a large amount of money for breach of contract, but she can also intercept the goods that Xifan should have traded to Jun's family at a low price.

   She is not short of food, salt, and cloth, and sells them backhand to Xifan, leaving Jun's goods to rot on the road.

   commanded: "Let the Guangfeng Shuixi Southwest branch store sufficient goods and be on standby at any time."

"yes."

  Huo Xi made repeated deployments here. Mu Yan kept stumbling and stumbling over there. There are often various situations on the road, but fortunately they were prepared and resolved them easily.

  After leaving Maguan, Mu Yan received a letter from Jun Ruoxu secretly.

   After reading it, the master and servant couldn't help but be happy.

   "What's the matter with this young master Jun? His grandparents and aunt conspired to make the son die or be disabled. He is holding back? Send a secret letter to the master, inform me?"

  What is this young master thinking? It's really strange.

   "Master, what do you mean by Young Master Jun? Why am I a little confused? Is he playing hard to get, deliberately showing favor? Or does he have other plans?"

  Mu Yan stared at the letter in his hand and remained silent.

"Master, do you think this young master Jun was locked up by us? Or did his father's death stimulate him? How can people not understand what he did? He still wrote letters? Are you afraid that we will stay behind?" evidence?"

   Li Yi gave him a white look, "Where is this handwriting of Young Master Jun?"

   "Ah, isn't this his handwriting?"

  Kan Er took it over and took a look, hey, it’s really not. "This person, has he learned to be smart, or is he coaxing our son to play?"

  Mu Yan was silent for a while.

   "He doesn't have the guts to lie to me. This is to save himself a way out. Besides, the things about Jiao Zan said in this letter are probably true."

  The secret guards couldn't find out the relationship between Jiao Zan and the Jun family, and only Jun Ruoxu and other insiders of the Jun family could know such secrets.

   Unexpectedly, Jiao Zan's mother is the concubine sister of Mrs. Jun.

  According to Jun Ruoxu's letter, Jiao Zan's mother refused to contact Jun's family until her death because she was sent to marry by her own father. It was Mrs. Jun who saw Jiao Zan's brothers and sisters living in difficulties, and gave him money and things to help him. He also paid for his schooling, and later sent him to the army and helped him find a job.

   "It's no wonder that the old man Jun is equivalent to Jiao Zan's reborn parents. He will obey the orders of the Jun family and the explanation will make sense."

  Mu Yan nodded, "Now he is relying on Mu Zhan to rise up again and again. He has already been tied to Mu Zhan's boat."

  As for how to deal with Jiao Zan... According to the information obtained by the secret guard, Jiao Zan has performed well in the army these years, leading troops in several victorious battles, and has a good reputation in the army. Mu Yan hesitated.

"Even if he has made meritorious deeds, it is a fact that he harmed the young master. If we don't punish him, we should treat him as if we were afraid of him. If the eldest son sees that the master is soft, and his methods become more severe, and we can't handle it, we have to Kill chickens to make an example to monkeys."

   "My son, Kan Er is right, Jiao Zan has to deal with it."

  Mu Yan pondered for a moment, "Inform Fan Yang that I ask Jiao Zan to go to Kunming City and promote him to the right commander. Let him assist in the training of recruits."

   "Ah, young master, why did you promote him?" Kan Er was puzzled.

  Mu Yan glanced at him, "If you don't understand, you are not allowed to have dinner."

   "Huh?" Scratching his head and looking at Li Yi.

  After a while, I figured it out, "Young master, is this a secret promotion? He was promoted to an official, but he was not allowed to lead the army?"

  The garrison in Kunming City, unless the battle is very fierce, otherwise it is the top priority to guard Kunming City, the base camp of Yunnan Province, and will not send troops to join the war.

  If you don’t participate in the war, you won’t have the opportunity to make meritorious service, and if you don’t have the opportunity to make meritorious service, you will have no chance to get promoted and make a fortune. Young master, is this letting him be idle? Resigned from his post?

   "Ah, young master, is that what you mean? Why not put him in a random place? Why put him in Kunming City to enjoy the blessings?"

"If you want him to die, let him go crazy first. If he can keep his heart and serve the people and the army wholeheartedly, I can't let him go. After all, he has made a lot of military achievements over the years and is a talent. But if he Having been corrupted in Kunming City, it will be much easier to correct his faults and punish him again."

Li Yi agreed, "Young master is the best move. If you deal with him suddenly, it will cause dissatisfaction among the generals in the army. After all, nothing else happened on the martial arts stage that day. Everyone saw the young master." Defeated him. He was transferred and promoted, and everyone just regarded him as the young master's favorite talent."

  Kan Er stared at Mu Yan, and sure enough, the young master is still smarter than him. "Then I let Kunming City keep an eye on him?"
