Chapter 414: 15
297 Chen Jie said: "The master of the Ghost Hand Hall, Gu Qingfeng?"
"Yes, this man is Gu Qingfeng's man. I know that he was behind the scenes and followed the path of Mr. Bai Mosheng from my hall. He was sent to Liu Song as a guard."
"But he didn't know that Mr. Bai was very strict with his subordinates, and this matter was not kept secret. Only Gu Qingfeng himself didn't know, and his arrangement was exposed."
"Mr. Bai and I have been investigating Zhao San for a year and found that he did not behave improperly. We all thought that Gu Qingfeng had received money and used the back door to get him in to gain a patronage, so we didn't take it seriously."
"It seems that this is not the case now."
"Also, it's strange that Gu Qingfeng invited me to drink today. He asked me to drink at this time. Now I think he didn't want me to stay in the mansion and get Song'er's distress signal by then!"
At this moment, Old Monster Liu suddenly understood the connection between the two, and a murderous look suddenly appeared on his face: "Gu Qingfeng, you actually set your sights on my son, how can I tolerate you!"
After hearing this, Chen Jie looked at Old Monster Liu and said, "Boss Liu, there is one thing I don't understand. Why did Gu Qingfeng want to kill Young Master Liu Song?"
Old Monster Liu was stunned, and then said: "I'm afraid it's because of this iron mine. This iron mine has always been under the control of Ghost Hand Hall. Until a while ago, Liu Song said that his friend needed a batch of goods, so I asked him to pick up a batch of goods. I didn't expect that he actually sold it to me. I planned to let him try to take over the iron mine business."
"Maybe it's because of this that Gu Qingfeng's interests were affected. I just didn't expect this guy to be so cruel. Song'er grew up under his watch, yet he had the heart to do that to her!"
Old Monster Liu frowned, his eyes filled with undisguised anger and murderous intent.
Chen Jie was silent, but he heard something useful from Old Weird Liu's words. Chen Jie looked at Old Weird Liu and said, "Boss Liu, you just said that Young Master Liu helped your Cao Gang to deal with a batch of goods. What goods were they?"
Old Monster Liu was stunned, and looked at Chen Jie and asked, "Why are you asking this?"
Chen Jie paused for a moment, then took out an account book and gave the envelope in the account book to Old Monster Liu.
When Old Monster Liu took the envelope, he saw the pattern on it, the flamingo with a fire lotus symbol on its forehead.
"Phoenix!"
Old Monster Liu screamed and came out. Chen Jie looked at Old Monster Liu and said, "Boss Liu, what's the origin of this?"
Old Monster Liu said, "That fire lotus symbol is the symbol of the Zoroastrianism. In addition to the leader and the two great venerables, the Zoroastrianism also has four great Dharma Kings!"
"The Four Dharma Kings?"
Old Monster Liu nodded gently and said, "Fang Guozhen, the dragon who entered the sea, is a powerful figure in Jiangnan. Du Zundao, the tiger who came down from the mountain, is the mastermind in the middle. Mr. Guan, the wise fox, is a wanderer in all directions. Han Miaozhen, the phoenix bird, is a powerful figure in the Central Plains!"
"This symbol is the symbol of Han Miaozhen, the Phoenix, one of the Four Dharma Kings."
After hearing this, Chen Jie swallowed his saliva. It sounded really awesome.
At this time, Old Monster Liu took out the envelope and saw the words written on it: [There is a problem with the goods, trace the source, and kill him! ]
Suddenly everyone fell silent. So that's it, so that's it. This evil beast in my family is really bold and presumptuous!
He actually dared to have secret communication with Zoroastrianism and even sold that thing to Zoroastrianism. No wonder they wanted to kill him!
Old Monster Liu looked at Chen Jie and saw that he was puzzled. He sighed and said, "Are you confused? Let me tell you..."
Chen Jie said: "Thank you, Gang Leader Liu, for clearing up my confusion."
Old Monster Liu sighed and said, "Actually, this is my fault..."
It turned out that the matter was like this. Ever since the last incident of Zheng Chuan reselling iron ore, the iron ore business in the entire Mianshui County had rarely been traded on a large scale to the outside world. However, the Zoroastrianism's hidden troops in Mianshui County were in urgent need of iron tools.
The Zoroastrians in the north are now carrying out a large-scale uprising and are in need of weapons. The iron mine in Mianshui County is the most convenient place to support the north because it is close to the waterway. As long as the goods are purchased, they can go upstream along the waterway and transport the ironware directly to the north to support the rebels in the north.
The transportation of iron ore from other places would encounter various difficulties and checkpoints set up by the Daqian army, and the transportation costs would be extremely high.
Therefore, the higher-ups hoped that the Zoroastrians in Mianshui County would think of ways to buy some iron ore to support the north.
In this context, the Fishing Gang was like a piece of raw iron that would not be sold outside, so the Zoroastrianism could only place its hopes on the Cao Gang.
So they set their sights on Liu Song.
This Mr. Liu often went to Yihonglou to play, and he would complain every time, saying that his father didn't let him do this or that, and he really wanted to do something to impress his father.
For some unknown reason, this news reached the ears of Zoroastrianism.
Not long after, someone contacted him and said that he wanted to buy a batch of pig iron at a price 30% higher than the market price, and wondered if Liu Song could help.
Liu Song was reluctant at first, but later he could not resist the other party's nagging, and he also wanted to do something to show off so that his father would look at him with new eyes. Then, he began to supply pig iron to the Zoroastrianism.
At first he used good iron.
The Zoroastrians also asked for very little, and after doing a few business deals with each other, both sides developed trust in each other.
The Zoroastrianism wants a big order. Liu Song is really smart. He wants so much money, so I might as well adulterate it.
So he mixed a lot of scrap iron into it.
We have introduced scrap iron in the previous article. It is the kind that does not appear to have any defects on the surface, but is brittle and breaks at the slightest touch.
This kind of iron cannot be used to make weapons at all, and Liu Song is a really ruthless guy. He sold all the scrap iron that had been accumulated by the Cao Gang for ten years in one go.
He made a lot of money for the Cao Gang all at once and showed off in front of Old Monster Liu.
As for Zoroastrianism, they did not expect that the young master, with whom they had cooperated well in the past, would do such a wicked thing as selling scrap iron as good iron.
I suffered a huge loss.
But are Zoroastrians the ones who suffer losses?
After knowing this, a hunting order was immediately issued, which led to what happened today.
When Old Monster Liu saw the order issued by Phoenix, one of the four Dharma Kings of Zoroastrianism, he immediately understood the cause and effect of the matter.
He is really like a newborn calf that is not afraid of a tiger. I am afraid that Liu Song is the only one in Mianshui County who dares to do such a thing.
Even Old Monster Liu and Nan Batian did not dare to use scrap iron to sell to the Zoroastrians as pig iron. They could choose not to make the money, but they could never cheat the Zoroastrians, unless they were really prepared to fight to the death with the Zoroastrians.
If you don't sell to Zoroastrianism, at most you are not cooperating, and Zoroastrianism cannot do anything to you.
But you dare to sell them scrap iron and pass off inferior goods as good ones. You are just making fun of them. Do you really think Zoroastrianism is made of clay?
Can this sect that dares to challenge the imperial court head-on be bullied so easily?
I have to say that only Liu Song dares to do such a big job.
Chen Jie and Old Monster Liu looked at each other and were both speechless about this Young Master Liu. It was truly ignorant and fearless. It was not easy for him to save his life now.
Thinking of this, Old Monster Liu put his hands down dejectedly. This rebellious son really knows how to cause trouble for himself!
Thinking of this, Old Monster Liu looked at Chen Jie and said, "Okay, now I know. This matter has nothing to do with you."
Chen Jie said: "Okay, now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, Boss Liu, we can talk now."
Old Monster Liu asked, "What do you want to talk about?"
Chen Jie said: "Join hands to kill Nan Batian!"
"Um?"
Old Monster Liu looked at Chen Jie with shock in his eyes. You are not serious, are you going to kill Nan Batian?
Chen Jie met Liu Laoguai's surprised eyes and said, "Well, Liu Gang leader, Nan Batian is a sinister person. He has framed you and me again and again. If we don't unite, he might have more despicable means. He can attack Master Liu Song now, but what about in the future?"
"Although we have seen through his trick this time, he will definitely have more tricks against us in the future. If you and I don't join forces, I'm afraid we will die without a burial place!"
Old Monster Liu squinted his eyes and looked at Chen Jie and said, "Chen Jiusi, that's your gang leader!"
Chen Jie said: "When the king is not upright, the minister will defect to another country. When the father is not kind, the son will leave his hometown. He, Nan Batian, wants to kill me, but I am still loyal to him. Boss Liu, do you think that I, Chen Jiusi, am a loyal person?"
Upon hearing this, Old Monster Liu laughed and said, "Interesting, interesting."
"Chen Jiusi, you also know that if you and I join forces, it is very likely that Darughachi will be on guard, so it is risky for me to join forces with you."
Old Monster Liu said.
Chen Jie said: "Risks and opportunities coexist. If Gang Leader Liu doesn't dare to take risks, I'm afraid he won't be able to accomplish anything great."
Old Monster Liu said, "Chen Jiusi, you are really sharp-tongued, but I will not join forces with you just because of a few words from you. If you want to join forces with me, you have to promise me two things!"
Chen Jie narrowed his eyes and asked, "Which two?"
Old Monster Liu laughed and said, "First, help me save my son. If Liu Song dies, there is no possibility for us to unite. If Liu Song lives, we will be the best allies."
Chen Jie frowned slightly, but still said, "But, what about the second one?"
Old Monster Liu said: "Second, help me find the murderer who assassinated my son!"
Chen Jie frowned and said, "Boss Liu, this is a bit unreasonable. The other party is the Zoroastrianism. If we provoke them, our lives will be difficult in the future!"
Upon hearing this, Old Monster Liu laughed and said, "Haha, I don't care!"
Chen Jie frowned and said, "I can help you find them, but I won't help you deal with them, let alone kill them. Please forgive me, Boss Liu. I can't possibly offend the giant Zoroastrianism just to form an alliance with you."
Old Monster Liu said, "Okay, I don't need you to deal with them. I just need to know their identities. They assassinated my son, and I will never let them off easily!"
Chen Jie said: "Boss Liu, the Zoroastrians are not to be trifled with!"
Old Monster Liu said, "Humph, the Fire Worshipers in the north are not easy to mess with, but the south, especially the Mian River, is their territory. I must make them know how powerful I am."
Chen Jie said: "Okay, I promise you, but Boss Liu, I have done these two things, what are you going to do?"
At this time, Old Monster Liu said with a gloomy face: "I know several channels through which Song'er delivers goods. In this case, we can find the recipient of the Zoroastrianism by following these channels. This time, I want to make them disappear from Mianshui County!"
After hearing this, Chen Jie asked, "Boss Liu, are you going to do this yourself?"
Old Monster Liu: "I will inform the Darughachi Mansion. Of course, this kind of thing will be done together with the court."
Chen Jie was silent.
Then he looked at Old Monster Liu and said, "Boss Liu, I can agree to all your conditions, but I will come to rescue people and find people. I can't be the only one to pay for our alliance. Can you do something for me as well?"
Old Monster Liu said, "Chen Jiusi, I definitely can't spare the time recently, but you are right. Since we are forming an alliance, we must trade fairly. You just gave my son a Tai Sui Pill to save his life, so I will give you a treasure in exchange."
Having said that, Old Monster Liu turned around and returned to his horse, quickly bringing over a black cloth bag.
then!
Old Monster Liu threw it to Chen Jie, who felt his hand sink when he received it.
Chen Jie opened it and saw a piece of iron the size of an egg in the pocket. It was red and emitting heat.
Old Monster Liu said, "Fire velvet iron is a type of meteorite iron from outer space. It is very valuable and can be used to make precious weapons."
"Just this small piece mixed with other refined iron and materials can be used to make a top-level weapon. I'll give it to you. This piece of fire velvet iron is much more valuable than your Tai Sui Dan. How about this? This may express my feelings."
Chen Jie looked at the tinder in his hand and a smile appeared on his face. He knew that this was indeed a treasure.
Chen Jie always carries a short dagger called Qiu Chan on his waist. This short dagger is mixed with a small amount of tinder, making it a precious weapon. Needless to say, it is very sharp.
An ordinary fine iron sword can be made into a sword that is far superior to ordinary ones by adding a little tinder.
This piece of tinder was exactly what Chen Jie needed. Chen Jie had always wanted to make a good gun. If he used this tinder, he might be able to make a great gun.
