Chapter 265 Camel City

In Camel City, in front of the Fan Ji Trading Store, Fan Yong, who was calling his friends to unload goods in front of the gate, was stunned when he saw the few people leading horses in front of him, then he threw the friend down and quickly met him.

"Master Gao, why are you here?"

Seeing clearly Gao Jin was wearing an ordinary blue robe, Fan Yong lowered his voice. The high man obviously wanted to hide his eyes and then disguised himself.

"Something needs to be done, are Brother Fan here?"

In the Camel City, there are places where Gao Jin can go to besides Guan Ye’s house, which is also the Fanji Store. Moreover, it is too eye-catching to go to Guan Ye’s house, which is not as convenient as the Fanji Store, which is coming and going.

"The master has gone to Fugu County. If the master has any instructions, just tell me to do it."

Fan Yong led Gao Jin and his men into the warehouse. After the Battle of Gubeizhai, his master almost put all the possessions of the Fan family on this master. Even if the master did not give any special instructions, he knew what his family should do.

When he arrived at the wing room behind the warehouse, Gao Jin took Sha Dediao and Luda to live, Fang Zi said to Fan Yong, "Then please go to Guan Ye's Mansion and send me a letter, saying that I want to see the eldest son, the faster the better."

"Grandmaster is here, I'll go to Mr. Guan's mansion now."

Fan Yong was also a decisive person. After entertaining Gao Jin, he called the slave servants whom the Fan family raised since childhood to serve him. He immediately rushed to Guan Mansion. However, Guan Mansion was not in the mansion, so he turned to the General Mansion and only then did he meet Guan Mansion.

"Manager Fan, why are you here?"

When he saw Fan Yong, Mr. Guan was a little surprised. Although he knew that the shopkeeper Fan was very close to the eldest son, he rarely had contact with him.

"Master Guan, the young man came in the name of Master Gao."

Seeing that there was no one around, Fan Yong said it directly. When he heard that Gao Jin wanted to meet the eldest son in private, and the faster the better, Master Guan knew that something must have happened. Thinking that Gao Jin's parents-in-law killed the two of Tuoqian and the blood flowed in the street that night, he felt a little shocked. Could this little Gao have caused any trouble again!

"Manager Fan, go back and ask Xiao Gao to wait for peace of mind. Someone will go to your warehouse later."

Mr. Guan dropped the pen in his hand, stood up and said to Fan Yong, and then sent Fan Yong away and went straight to see the eldest son. Now the general's mansion is the head of the eldest son.

In the study of the General's Mansion, Du Hongyu was reading the military deployment map of the Xiawei Station in Yansui Town, as well as the real news that he asked the spies to inquire. His face, which was originally as gentle as jade as a prince of a noble family, was so angry that he turned blue.

It is not a strange thing to be vacant jobs these days, but in the garrison below, less than 30% of the soldiers who are actually registered to fight, so how can he show his ambitions?

"The bastards are all groups of jackals who cannot be fed."

When Mr. Guan came, Du Hongyu cursed and vented his anger. Now he finally understood why his father sneered at his ambition to recover Hetao. In fact, Yansui Town is known for 150,000 troops, and the number of troops that can be pulled out is only 50,000. Among them, there are 20,000 people who can be called the elite.

Guan Qi's arrival made Du Hongyu suppress his anger. After he met his uncle more than two months ago, the quiet and moving uncle agreed to his father's conditions and is now the general of Shanhaiguan, but before this uncle left, he brought a lot of servants from their family.

It can be said that in the General's Mansion, Du Hongyu can use most of the core force, but this is impossible. Uncle went to Shanhaiguan and no one could trust him. Besides, this was the decision made by his father, so he could not object.

So even if Guan Qi is old, it can still be used in Du Hongyu's eyes. At least it is not a problem to recruit No. 20 servant from Guanfu. "Brother Guan, why are you here? Is it the honeycomb coal business..."

In the past few months, relying on Fanji Stores and many warehouses and shops under Suide Trading Gang, coal stoves have bloomed everywhere in Shaanxi, and even imitated ones have been sold. However, the honeycomb coal is still tightly held in the hands of Fan Xiu'an. In the past two months, the honeycomb coal can be said to have been selling crazy. Even the originally low price has been rising due to insufficient supply, almost 30% of the charcoal price.

In the General's Mansion, the one who connects with Fan Ji Business Name is Mr. Guan. In the past two months, Du Hongyu is in a better mood. He is still very polite when he sees Mr. Guan.

"Young Master, Gao Baihu has come to Camel City. He said he wants to see you, the sooner the better."

"Why is he here?"

Du Hongyu stood up. After the Battle of Gubeizhai, Gao Jin also sent someone to report the number of soldiers and horses under his command, which surprised Du Hongyu. Who would have thought that just one winter passed, Gao Jin had nearly 500 soldiers and horses, which was almost as close to thousands of households.

"The Tongtulou Tower is so eye-catching. By the way, where is Gaobaihu?"

"Gaobaihu's warehouse in Fanji Store."

Du Hongyu decided to go to the warehouse of Fanji Store. Since he became the deputy general, he felt very upset. The generals under his command who were lip service were not easy to deal with. As soon as his uncle left, the people who were available under his command became increasingly difficult. Now Gao Jin has become the leader of his subordinates.

A few hours later, it became completely dark. Du Hongyu, who had changed into ordinary casual clothes, left the martial arts field behind the General's Mansion, with only Du Tieniu and a few confidants beside him. He did not ride a horse, but took a carriage to go there.

In the carriage, Mr. Guan sat honestly, looking at Du Hongyu frowning, and was worried about Gao Jin. He knew that the eldest son was upset recently, and that the generals in Camel City were not so obedient. The eldest master went to Shanhaiguan but transferred most of the servants in the General's Mansion. The only thing left was not enough to make the generals afraid.

"Bo Guan, what did you say that Gao Baihu came here to ask for a private meeting?"

Du Hongyu looked at Guan Qi. He knew that Guan Qi had a close relationship with Gao Jin, so he asked Guan Qi to manage the honeycomb coal business that cooperated with the Fan family and let him take charge of his own money bag.

"I'm not hiding it from the eldest son, Gao Baihu only sent a message, but the old slave thought it was not a good thing?"

Guan Ye has a deep understanding of how much Gao Jin can do. On that day, Gao Jin killed Zhang Gui and cheated the Tartars with only the group of young friends around him. He took the more than 200 Tartar heads and changed the officials from the master to a hundred households. When he came back, he dared to start a massacre and killed the streets in Tuoqian. With his temperament, he needed to sneak into this young master to find him, and he must have caused trouble.

"I hope it's not a big trouble?"

Hearing Mr. Guan, Du Hongyu murmured to himself that in fact, Gao Jin took the initiative to report his troops, which made him very fond of him. At least he felt that Gao Jin was ambitious, but he knew the general situation very well, knew that he was his backer, so he did not hide it from him.

As long as Gao Jin did not cause too much trouble, Du Hongyu planned to help him settle it, and even found a way to move Gao Jin's official position. Not only did the official position of a few households be too incompetent, but it also limited Gao Jin's military training ability. At present, the Du family's direct descendants do not have much strength in Camel City, but Du Hongyu has a lot of things to do, and he also hopes that Gao Jin can share more of his burden.

Half an hour later, Du Hongyu's carriage stopped in front of the Fanji Store. Du Tieniu stepped forward and exposed his waist sign, and was then welcomed into the warehouse. At this time, Gao Jin and Fan Yong came out to greet him.

"Gao Jin pays homage to the eldest son."

Gao Jin was not very rebellious about Du Hongyu, and was still polite, respectful and thoughtful, and then he greeted Mr. Guan.

"Xiao Gao, you haven't seen each other for a few days, but you seem to be more and more calm."

Du Hongyu seemed quite close to Gao Jin. Speaking of which, his Du family was in Yansui Town, and his uncle was also a bad temper, so there were not many foreign generals who could really rely on their confidants in the Du family. Although there were a few in Camel City at present, those veterans only listened to his father and respected him, the eldest son at most.

Several people entered the wing room and Sha Dediao was there to make tea. He was from the Sha family's manager and naturally he was very familiar with it.

After sitting down in the main and secondary position, Du Hongyu directly asked, "Xiao Gao, what's the matter with me when you come to Camel City this time?"

"I dare not hide it from the eldest son. Gao Jin really has important things to report to the eldest son."

Gao Jin didn't tell anything. He immediately told all the things that had happened, but just told Shan Ying and the others to work together to deal with him as Xu Tong's instructions. In addition, the remnants of the White Lotus Sect in the Motianling gathered thousands of refugees and dug up the mines and poked them out.

Gao Jin is not very interested in the copper mines in Motianling because he is not able to eat the only one. It would be better to take the initiative to bring out the news for Du Hongyu's support.

Du Hongyu listened to Gao Jin's story, although he did not believe it all, he believed it for seven or eight points. It was really the bad reputation of Xu Tong, a guardian dog. Even he heard about it. Gao Jin recruited military households and offended his colleagues. Xu Tong took the opportunity to deceive the other households. It was really not new to get rid of Gao Jin.

"The eldest son doesn't know anything. In order to redeem a few subordinates, I went to Fengzigou that day. Fortunately, I sent someone to spy on the other party's Xushi in advance. I realized that Xu Tong actually colluded with the bandits in Motianling and even privately lost the armor to the other party."

In Gao Jinkou, he sent people to investigate the enemy situation out of caution, and happened to meet Xu Tong instructed hundreds of households below to send several vehicles of armor into Motianling. Then he went into Motianling and learned that the thief head, who was the Purple-faced Heavenly King, had gathered thousands of refugees and dug copper mines privately, which was really terrifying.

Although Gao Jin did not explicitly say that Xu Tong colluded with the traitor and planned to rebel, the things revealed in these few short passages are enough to make people think about that aspect.

Du Hongyu did not expect Gao Jin to deceive him. It was really what Gao Jin said, and it was easy to verify afterwards. As long as Gao Jin captured the hundreds of households, he would know it clearly.

"Young Master, I am now in Fengzigou, and I was planning to redeem my subordinates..."

Gao Jin planned to make a mistake. Although he had already built Fengzigou, he told Du Hongyu that he had not taken action yet. He just discovered the tricks between Xu Tong and Motianling, so he came overnight to ask Du Hongyu for instructions.

"Young Master, then Xu Tong is Gao Jin's Shangguan. Gao Jin really doesn't know how to deal with this matter, and he can't trust Wei Li..."

"The White Lotus Sect is a cult that the state cannot tolerate. It would be fine if Xu Tong had a private communication, but he dared to lose armor to the other party. This is clearly a plan to rebel."

Du Hongyu said coldly. He was worried about how to establish his authority recently. He knocked down the generals in Luotuo City. Don’t think that his uncle took away most of the elites of the Du family. He did not have enough force to intimidate them. What’s more, there were copper mines in the Motianling. Although he didn’t know its size, the remnants of the White Lotus Sect gathered thousands of refugees, which was a must-see.

"Xiao Gao, if you let go of this matter, as long as Xu Tong is suspected of being rebellious, you can take action first and then report. Even if you are implicated in the Shenmu Guard, you don't need to worry."
