Chapter 689 Threat? Reminder?
Regarding the delay of this update, I once again explained that I originally planned to add a few supporting characters, which was the guy who fell into the water at the end of the previous chapter. However, I sat in front of the computer and thought about it, but it still felt that it was not suitable. It would not help the plot progress much, but it would make the plot longer.
So, I decided to delete it.
You can take a look at the end of the previous chapter...
Very sorry!!!
Nowadays, it is very difficult to go out. Either you don’t go out, it’s not ordinary.
The merchants in Jiangnan finally came to Chang'an, but it was impossible for them to bring two sacks of local specialties. They must have made enough preparations before they came, and at least they earned the shipping fee back.
Nearly a hundred large trucks lined up in a long fleet, which looked so spectacular from a distance.
You should know that these are all private merchant fleets, and it would be even more amazing to include the imperial court's canal ship words.
This can be said to be Han Yi's magic weapon to win. Without this fleet, Han Yi was quite troublesome, because if he wanted to win the merchants of the Western Regions, he had to have goods. Without goods, everything was useless. This was also the most scarce thing in Beixiang. His perfume, paper and ink were not sufficient, and even Chang'an could not satisfy him. What's more, the merchants of the Western Regions were the advantage of the two cities and the Yuan family market. Fortunately, when Yang Zhanfei talked about business with him, he talked about this, which was considered a great help to Han Yi.
When we got closer, we saw many people standing on the bows of the first three ships, all dressed in merchants, and a few of them pointed at Han Yi and the others and were saying something.
Han Yi also waved his hand very enthusiastically.
The merchants on the ship also waved back to the gift.
After a while, the boat landed. Under the noise, these merchants took the lead in getting off the boat.
Han Yi and the others hurriedly met.
"Welcome to Chang'an."
Han Yi bowed and smiled.
"This must be Brother Han from Ume Village."
The middle-aged man walked up quickly.
“That’s right.”
Han Yi nodded.
Those who gave guidance just now were those sent by Han Yi.
The middle-aged man said, "In Lujiang, Xiawujun."
"It turns out it was Uncle Lu, who has long admired him, long admired him."
Everyone already knew that Han Yi was the Royal Special Envoy, so he was a little nervous just now. After all, the official and businessmen were very different, but seeing that Han Yi was so easy to talk to, he even called them uncle, and he felt much more relaxed.
At this time, a middle-aged man next to him said in a strong Yangzhou accent: "When I was in Yangzhou, I heard of Brother Han's name. It's a pity that I couldn't see you at that time. It's really better to meet you than to be famous."
“Where, where.”
Han Yishou led the way to the side and said, "This is the second son of the governor of Yangzhou."
The middle-aged man had not paid attention at first, so he went to look at Han Yi. Now, hearing what Han Yi said, he couldn't help but look at him, "What a second young master! He is rude and rude. What kind of virtue does the villain Zhang Fu have? How dare you come here to greet him."
The other merchants also quickly saluted.
Yang Zhanfei smiled and said, "I am half a native of Yangzhou. Now that you are here to Chang'an, I should come here to welcome you."
Han Yi pointed at Shen Xiao again and said, "Shen Xiao, the eldest son of the Shen family on the first floor of Yangzhou."
Shen Xiao said carelessly: "Do I still use your introduction? I know Uncle Zhang. Hello Uncle Zhang."
Zhang Fu said, "Your father is not at ease with you. He also specifically told me to see if you have caused trouble in Chang'an."
Chen Xiao asked hurriedly: "Is my dad okay?"
Zhang Fu joked: "You can make your father angry, it's no problem for your father to live a hundred years."
I smiled embarrassedly when I heard it.
Han Yi introduced Xiong and Ono to them again.
Although everyone has never been masked, there is a saying that when you meet an old friend in a foreign land, you can communicate in Yangzhou dialect. You only feel like you are in Yangzhou. Your heart is very warm, and Brother Xiong seems extremely excited.
Everyone talked at the dock for a long time. After the ships were successfully docked, Han Yi invited them to Beixiang. They were the bosses, so of course they didn't have to help unload the goods. Moreover, the court had a special warehouse for them to release goods. They were not the first to come back and were familiar with it. So these merchants were very relieved and handed over the work to their men, and then followed Han Yi and the others to the city.
However, Yang Zhanfei did not enter the city with them, but found a reason to go back.
It's okay outside the city, but it's not possible in the city. Merchants are humble. Yang Zhanfei is a royal family member of the previous dynasty. It's too unreasonable to walk together. It's already very good that he can come here.
When they arrived at Beixiang, Qian Dafang, Jia Fugui, and some merchants from the two cities, Zhou Fei, Wan Jichun and others, were already full. They all knew each other, after all, they used to often come and talked enthusiastically as soon as they met.
"Brother Xiaoyi."
At this time, Cha Wu suddenly walked over quickly.
"What's up?"
Han Yi saw that his expression was different, so he asked.
Cha Wu whispered a few words in Han Yi's ear.
After hearing this, Han Yi frowned slightly, and then bowed to the businessmen and said, "Elders, I suddenly have some urgent matters to deal with here, I'm afraid I'll lose my companion for a while."
Chen Xiao was stunned and said, "Is it okay?"
"A little private matter."
Han Yi smiled.
Lu Jiang hurriedly said, "It's okay, it's okay, you go quickly."
"Sorry, sorry."
Han Yi bowed his hand and followed Cha Wu to the dedicated passage on the side.
He came to the gate of the Woman House, first asked Cha Wu to go back, and then opened the door and walked in.
"who?"
When he was still walking up the stairs, a voice came from the upstairs. He replied, "It's me."
When I arrived at the second floor, I saw a slender young man standing in front of the window.
Han Yi smiled and said, "Miss Peony, don't be fine."
This "young boy" is Yuan Mudan dressed as a man. She looks heroic and handsome just because she is tall and wears men's clothes.
Since Han Yi was assassinated last time, the two have never met again. In addition, the conflict between the two families is getting worse, so Han Yi is still a little surprised by the arrival of Yuan Mudan, and can even be said to be ignorant.
"Don't come and be fine!"
Yuan Mudan smiled faintly and said, "I came to you today because I want to solve something that should have been solved long ago."
Han Yi said in surprise: "What's the matter?"
Yuan Mudan said: "It's about me being a beauty in the free world."
Han Yi was stunned for a moment and looked at Yuan Mudan in confusion.
"I plan to return these parts to you, and the price will be calculated based on the original ones. You will only make money but not lose money." Yuan Mudan's words were very simple and clear.
If Yuan Mudan came to tell him about this before, Han Yi would not be surprised, but when he mentioned this matter now, he was quite confused and said with a smile: "I said a long time ago that this is just a struggle between Beixiang and your Yuan family market, and there is no need to affect our private contact. Besides, whether you still have to return or not, it will not affect the overall situation. I don't think there is still this need."
"Don't affect the overall situation?"
Yuan Mudan smiled slightly and said, "You said it seems that you have already won."
Han Yi shrugged and sat down, saying, "I didn't say that, but - tsk - I'm basically invincible, unless your Yuan family can make something good, but unfortunately, you don't have it. I still have it, but I haven't taken out my new sugar yet."
Yuan Mudan shook her head gently, "You are so bad. If you say that Beixiang is invincible, then I do agree. Our Yuan family has indeed lost the best opportunity to defeat Beixiang. But if you are invincible, then it is not certain."
Han Yi frowned slightly and said, "How do you say this?"
Yuan Mudan said: "Do you still remember the first time we met?"
Han Yi nodded in confusion.
Yuan Mudan smiled contemptuously and said, "I remember I once said that if I were born like you, even if I broke your legs at that time, it would be normal. The uncle at that time would never become enemies with our Yuan family because of you."
Han Yi frowned. He couldn't understand what the words meant. He smiled and said, "It seems that your Yuan family has reached the end of their strength, and they actually used this trick to scare me. I'm so sorry, I was so scared."
"Scared you?"
Yuan Mudan chuckled twice and said, "Bluffing has always been your strength, not what I am good at. This struggle is far from over, and it will be more intense than before. After all, at the beginning, our Yuan family just wanted to crush your North Lane, but now you have threatened the foundation of our Yuan family, and even brought considerable harm to our Yuan family's reputation. Now our Yuan family is not just about crushing your North Lane, but also destroying it together with you. Therefore, I think these members are no longer important."
Damn! You are too despicable. If you can't win the business, just use these brains.md! I'm afraid of this! Han Yi was silent for a moment and said, "I have always admired your Yuan family very much. I didn't expect that your Yuan family would do such despicable things."
Yuan Mudan said: "This is the absolute advantage our Yuan family has for you. We didn't take it out before, but that's just not necessary. Now it's necessary, so why not take it out and use it? Of course, this is not a big deal."
Han Yi sneered: "I don't believe that your Yuan family dares to do this, this is the capital."
Yuan Mudan smiled and said, "Our Yuan family has always been law-abiding and there is nothing to be afraid of, but the world is so big, there will always be people who encounter accidents. Will there be no accidents in the capital?"
Han Yi said, "Whether it is scaring me or really coming, I, Han Yi, listen to you. Just so, I always feel that the court is boring. If new players jump in, I believe it will be full of more fun."
Yuan Mudan smiled contemptuously and said, "Don't bluff here. This is not a business, but a more real strength. With your little bit of strength now, our Yuan family is enough to make you have an accident every hour. The only thing I can advise you is to stay with others less, otherwise, be careful to harm others and yourself."
The second half of the sentence is exactly what Han Yi's re-scaled. He frowned and looked at Yuan Mudan with his eyes full of fierceness, and said, "If your Yuan family dares to do this, I swear that I must not die well in the Yuan family."
Yuan Mudan smiled and said, "Sorry! I have never believed in this saying of gods and ghosts."
Just then, a cunning laughter suddenly sounded downstairs, "You fool, my sister Mudan dared to resist her kindness to remind you that you wouldn't appreciate it, but instead spoke rudely to my sister Mudan. I really let my sister Mudan down, and even outsiders look down on me." (To be continued.)
Chapter completed!
