Chapter 984
"So that's it. Then some of the things he did before make sense, especially his relationship with the Fuyun Sect." said the confidant.
"Now is not the time to talk about this." Hu Wo thought for a while, "I was wondering if he came to find me, would it be related to Your Highness."
"Sir, it's really possible." The confidant said with a serious expression, "I think Yao Qile was in his hands at the beginning. Sir, I'm even more worried that the second master's affairs would be related to this Lin?"
"What do you want to say?" Hu Wo's face changed slightly.
"Since the person surnamed Lin is in the caravan, there must be a master in the caravan who secretly protects him. The villain is worried~~"
He didn't say it any more, and I believe the adults knew very well what they wanted to express.
The adults and myself sent six masters to assist Zhou Li before, and they felt that it was foolproof.
But at that time, they didn't expect Lin Xiqi to be inside.
If they knew that Lin Xiqi was also in the caravan, they would definitely not have moved the caravan.
Even if you want to move, there will not be only these six masters.
Hu Wo's heart was sank. There was no news about Zhou Li now, and the caravans from Sifang Trading entered the city safely. For him, there was another bad possibility.
Even Zhou Li and the others probably encountered big trouble, rather than not having a caravan without Sifang Trading.
"It's too early to say this now. This boy named Lin came to us. Maybe there was something else, but we were thinking too much. You and I will go there, and it's not too late for Zhou Li to contact us later." Hu Wo said.
"Yes, sir."
He just mentioned this possibility a little.
Not long after Lin Xiqi sat down, he heard a hearty laugh outside.
"What a rare guest." As soon as he finished speaking, Hu Wo stepped into the VIP room.
"Mr. Lin?"
"Mr. Hu?"
Of course, Hu Wo knew that the young and overly young boy in front of him was Lin Xiqi, the county magistrate of Dunhuang County, and he had seen the portrait.
Even if I have never seen the portrait, Hu Wo can still know which one is Lin Xiqi.
The two people here were just sitting on the chair, and another middle-aged man stood behind him, obviously not.
In fact, it can be seen by age alone.
Lin Xiqi also knew that this fat man in his fifties who came in first and was in casual clothes was Hu Wo.
As for the person following Hu Wo, Cui You found that the other party was not weak.
It seems that even if the other party is not Hu Wo's guard, he is still a confidant.
Hu Wo's appearance is very different from Zhou Li. If the two were put together, no one would believe that they were brothers.
"I took the liberty to visit, please forgive me, Lord Hu." Lin Xiqi said with a smile.
"You are guilty, of course you are guilty." Hu Wo said in a deep voice, "You must know that you, Lord Lin, come here, and I have to go out to greet you. Isn't it seem like I'm too lazy now?"
"It's all my fault." Lin Xiqi said hurriedly.
"Haha~~" Hu Wo laughed, "Sit down, let's sit down and talk. When I came here just now, I had already ordered the kitchen to prepare wine and food. I will have a good drink with Brother Lin later."
"Mr. Hu is so kind."
"I've called you brother, so don't say that you are a master. Look at me. How old is I, just call Brother Hu. I know you are from the world, so it should be more friendly to shout like this." Hu Wo said.
Among officials, especially civil officials, they rarely call them big brothers, and they often use "a brother".
Lin Xiqi heard what Hu Woyan meant.
Hu Wo specifically mentioned that he was once a native of the world, which means that he wanted to tell himself that he knew that he was the junior brother of Fuyun Sect and that he knew a lot about him.
Lin Xiqi was not surprised by this.
As a person valued by the third prince, Hu Wo is naturally well-informed.
Even if he has no channel to learn about himself, the third prince will probably tell him some.
"It's better to obey me than respect. Brother Hu, I happened to pass by Fengshan County when I entered Beijing this time and came to visit me. Of course, there is something I want to trouble my brother." Lin Xiqi paused and glanced at the person beside Hu Wa.
"Brother Lin, he is an old man in the mansion. If you have anything to do, you can say it's okay." Hu Wo said.
"That's right." Lin Xiqi continued, "I guess my elder brother has some understanding of my affairs in Dunhuang County?"
Hu Wo nodded and said, "I understand a little, but not much, I don't know what I am referring to?"
"Sifang Business Name." Lin Xiqi said, "To be honest, this Sifang Business Name has a share of the Fuyun Sect. Brother Hu should know the relationship between me and the Fuyun Sect. When the Sifang Business Name's caravan went to the capital, my brother's Fengshan County was the only way, so I came here this time to hope that my brother would take care of me in the future."
After saying that, the middle-aged man behind Lin Xiqi immediately stepped forward, walked to Hu Wo, and presented a small exquisite box with both hands.
"Brother Lin, are you?"
"Brother Hu, I also handed over it on my behalf. This is the kind of intention of Sifang Business Company to respect my elder brother. I hope my elder brother will not refuse." Lin Xiqi said.
Hu Wo stared at Lin Xiqi for a while, nodded, and signaled the people beside him to take the box.
"Brother Lin, you are so polite." Hu Wo said, "This matter is very easy. With just one word from me, no one dares to make things difficult for the Sifang Merchant caravan in Fengshan County in the future. As long as it is the Sifang Merchant caravan, I will let the people below escort it."
"Thank you, brother. The Sifang Business is really afraid of the Fengshan bandits. Now there are officers and soldiers escorting them, so I think there is no problem." Lin Xiqi said.
Hu Wo was shocked. He was now a little sensitive to Fengshan bandits, especially when he spoke it from Lin Xiqi.
However, he looked at it secretly and found that Lin Xiqi seemed very natural and did not deliberately imply anything. It seemed that he was thinking too much.
"A group of little thieves, Brother Lin doesn't have to worry at all." Hu Wo waved his hand and said, "What else do you have to do? Just say it. As long as you can do it, you will never be vague. At least you can still make the decision on this acre of three-point land in Fengshan County."
"It's gone. With the elder brother's accurate letter, I can also explain to Sifang Business Name." Lin Xiqi smiled. "Sifang Business Name has made some money in the Western Regions over the years. I believe that I will be able to respect my elder brother in the future, and I have to ask my elder brother to take care of him."
"It's easy to say," Hu Wo said with a smile, "You have to drink it later."
He refused to accept the silver.
It seems that I am thinking too much, and the other party is here to ask me for some connections. This is very good, I have money to get it.
Especially this Sifang Business is indeed quite rich, and I will find an opportunity to criticize him hard in the future.
"That little brother sacrificed his life to accompany the gentleman. I heard that the wine in Fengshan County is good."
"That's natural. Brother, I have a few jars of good wine I have in my collection." Hu Wo said, "You go to the wine cellar first and prepare the wine."
"Yes, sir, sir, go now." The confidant immediately stepped down.
Lin Xiqi was a little funny in his heart. Hu Wo was really preparing to invite himself.
I didn't give any instructions to the kitchen just now, I just said politely, and I'm just asking this person to notify me now.
Lin Xiqi knew it very well, but he really wanted to have this banquet for Hu Wo.
Because he came here this time to have a good relationship with Hu Wo.
