Chapter 748: The Battle of the Alliance Sword

That was a piece of news worth fifty taels of silver. It was naturally difficult to find out the real inside story.

So the guys ran around inquire and even invited someone to have a few meals, but they still found nothing. Ping Tongfeng couldn't help but paced in the yard and considered this issue: "What kind of big thing happened that made this fat man willing to spend such a lot of money!"

He felt that he would be troubled by this problem and couldn't sleep all night. Suddenly a young man ran in outside: "Master, Master, I've found out clearly, I've found out!"

"Xiao Gao, tell me what's going on?"

Ping Tongfeng was overjoyed: "What important news did Fat Zhang get?"

"I don't know what kind of news Boss Zhang got, but I heard that Denglai's Hundred Swords Alliance will issue another batch of alliance swords this time!"

Haiyouhui? Hundred Swords Alliance?

Ping Tongfeng suddenly became excited. He couldn't believe the news: "Didn't it mean that the total number of alliance swords in the Hundred Swords Alliance is only 100. Can't we send more? Why are we going to send alliance swords again now!"

For the Hundred Swords Alliance and the so-called alliance sword, he once felt that it was very far away from him. He was a great merchant in Jining Mansion. Jining Mansion was far away on the canal of the Western Sanfu, and had no relationship with the Haiyouhui of the Eastern Sanfu. The Hundred Swords Alliance had no relationship or any contact. The alliance swords of the Hundred Swords Alliance may be of some use in the Eastern Sanfu, but they were useless in the Western Sanfu.

Not to mention Pingtong Peak, far away from the East Three Prefectures, even many big figures in the East Three Prefectures did not take it seriously after getting the swords of the Hundred Swords Alliance. They thought this thing was purely a decoration and had no use at all. They were just a large toy.

But everyone soon discovered that this toy-like alliance sword is not only not a decoration, but also has many real benefits. If you get a alliance sword, you will have the full support of Haibei Town and Haiyouhui, and you can walk horizontally in the East Three Mansions.

The reason why Ping Tongfeng's life in the past two years is that he got a sword of the Hundred Swords Alliance from a competitor of the East Three Prefectures.

He has always looked down on this competitor, thinking that this old friend is used to being too big and can't do business at all. His mountain goods warehouse will go bankrupt sooner or later, and he will definitely give the business to their Ping's warehouse in the end. As a result, the other party not only did not go bankrupt, but instead beat Ping Tongfeng to a loss of money.

Ping Tongfeng took a closer look and found that after getting this alliance sword, he could reduce his expenditure of at least nearly a thousand taels of silver a year.

Whether it is local officials, powerful people, gentry, bandits, or checkpoints along the way, bandits, when they hear that the other party has a sword of the Hundred Swords Alliance, they are honest and dare not take too much money that should not be needed. Even if the money that has to be collected, they have to be discounted.

Ping Tongfeng worked hard all year, and the net profit calculated by the end of the year was only more than a hundred taels of silver. As soon as he entered and exited, no matter how big the people were, they would have nothing to do. Just a wave of concessions could make Ping Tongfeng kneel down and beg for mercy.

Moreover, in the past, this alliance sword only had absolute authority in the three eastern prefectures. Even the internal officials, Jinyiwei or officials from the mansion were extremely polite when they encountered the alliance sword, for fear of causing the Liu Tongzong and the Haiyou Alliance behind the alliance sword. However, now that Liu Peng has made contributions to Liaonan, the influence of this alliance sword has gradually spread to the Western prefectures.

Although Longkou is a bit out of reach for the three Western prefectures, everyone knows that Liu Daotai has opened Zhenhaibei. Now the Haibei Army is the world's number one military town. It has repeatedly defeated Jiannu, comparable to Li Chengliang in Liaodong back then. It is a real dragon crossing the river. With just one order, it will pull out thousands of people.

Even if the local snakes in the Western Three Prefectures do not know how to live or die, they should pay attention to the incense. Otherwise, if Liu Daotai gets angry, it would probably be a situation where people are killed. You must know that every time Liu Peng gets angry, he will be killed with hundreds of lives.

Now the power of the Alliance Sword in the three Western Prefectures has increased by a hundred times. This time, the Haibei Army's record in the western expedition of the canal was particularly brilliant. Not only did it defeat the lotus demon in Yuncheng and killed and captured more than 20,000 yuan, it can be said that it was the biggest setback since the uprising of the lotus demon, but it also incorporated the men of the canal general Song Zhifu.

The general of the canal transport garrison is not an ordinary military position, but a real official of the canal transport garrisons in the Shandong section of the canal. As long as he says something, the merchant ship can take a boat on the canal with a fair amount of filial piety, and he doesn't need an extra filial piety of a penny.

If the Song Gan General is evil, the goods from the Shan Cargo Store will not be transported out of the water, otherwise they will either catch fire or be knocked over by the waves. Even if Ping Tongfeng is willing to take the risk at his own expense, no ship owner will be willing to take the goods from Ping's family.

Moreover, this is just the power of General Song Shen. If General Song Shen starts to be ruthless, not to mention scouting the family and extermination of the clan, even killing hundreds or thousands of lives. After all, General Song Shen is now Liu Daotai's person, and Liu Daotai is now the chief inspector of the Shandong Censorate!

Therefore, everyone knows very well that the alliance sword of the Hundred Sword Alliance will be like a Shangfang sword on the canal for a period of time. Unfortunately, although everyone knows this very well, they also know that an alliance sword is hard to come by and they can't count on it at all. Unexpectedly, they would have a god-given opportunity to get a sword sword today and fall from the sky.

Therefore, Ping Tongfeng immediately grabbed the guy's hand and asked clearly: "Xiao Gao, where did you get the news?"

The young man lowered his voice: "I went to find Sister Pan and begged Sister Pan for a long time. Sister Pan came forward to inquire for me!"

Ping Tongfeng knew what was going on. This guy was purely unrequited love for Sister Pan. Sister Pan had long been in love with him, but the guy was just infatuated. Even if Sister Pan abandoned him like a waste, he still never left him, even if Sister Pan became a little widow twice.

As the saying goes, the harsh girl is afraid of tangling the man. Besides, Sister Pan is just a little widow, so after being pestered by the guy for so many years, she finally has a bit of a sense of gold and stone. Although the two have never really slept together, Sister Pan is definitely willing to come forward to help the guy inquire about news, and she really lets her find out the exact news.

Therefore, Ping Tongfeng immediately laughed: "You are doing this beautifully. Go back and get fifty taels of silver. You go buy a house. If you want to do a good job with Miss Pan, how can you succeed without a big house..."

But Ping Tongfeng quickly asked the key question again: "But aren't there only so many alliance swords in the Hundred Swords Alliance? Why are there suddenly another batch of alliance swords now?"

As the name suggests, the Hundred Swords Alliance means that there are only one hundred alliance swords. The actual total number of alliance swords is slightly higher. For example, the alliance sword under Lin Yalan's name does not include the number of hundred swords, but the total number is only 1120.

Moreover, there is an elimination system within the Baijian Alliance. As soon as Tao Langxian left office this year, several allies who relied on Tao Langxian's relationship to get in and eat and drink but did not make much contribution to the Baijian Alliance were eliminated as soon as possible.

But it was too late for Ping Tongfeng to get this news, and the Three East Governments had already digested all the quotas for the Alliance Swords.

The big men in the Western Three Prefectures actually have several alliance swords, but they are only possessed by the top clan forces in the Western Three Prefectures. Their news is a hundred times more informed than a small businessman like Pingtongfeng, and its power is also a hundred times stronger, so they can operate an alliance sword, and their vision and goals are longer, rather than just considering economic issues like Pingtongfeng.

The young man immediately said, "Sister Pan has inquired about how many alliance swords are fixed in the Hundred Swords Alliance. Even if the Haiyou Alliance wants to launch more alliance swords, it is not enough. However, this time the Haibei Army expedition was in a mess and the canal was full of chaos. The situation was so miserable. Someone made a suggestion to Liu Daotai, thinking that one or twenty alliance swords should be issued to restore the local energy. Liu Daotai thought this idea was good."

As soon as he heard this, Ping Tongfeng understood what was going on: "Okay, okay, continue to talk about what the specific damage is!"

He had made up his mind to dig out all the money buried in the back mountain of his hometown, and even at the cost of it, he had to operate it into a sword.

As long as he can get a Alliance Sword, although he has corresponding obligations and expenses for the Hundred Swords Alliance and the Haiyou Association, he can increase his business of at least a few thousand taels of silver a year and reduce abnormal expenditures of thousands of taels of silver. Regardless of the government, local tyrants, gangsters or Green Forest Road, he only dares to take the money he should have when encountering this Alliance Sword. They will definitely not dare to take more money that they shouldn't have.

When he thought of such a prospect, Ping Tongfeng couldn't help but smile.

However, Ping Tongfeng's smile did not last for a few days. Soon he discovered that although the news was controlled within the local scope of the top figures on both sides of the canal, the top forces on both sides of the canal were always secretive about such important news, but this also means that these top forces are very interested in this alliance sword and are determined to get an alliance sword, so they deliberately blocked the news.

However, the Pingjia Warehouse was too weak. Even if he raised all the silver buried in the back mountain of his hometown, the small Pingjia Warehouse, compared with these top forces, was nothing. People were willing to spend tens of thousands of dollars to exchange for a sword, and Pingjiashan Warehouse threw all the belongings into less than 7,000 taels of silver.

What's worse, although Xiao Gao first found out that the Hundred Swords Alliance was preparing to issue 1000 alliance swords on both sides of the canal, the clear news that Ping Tongfeng finally got was that there were only ten alliance swords issued this time, and this was the only one time to do so.

Not twenty or fifteen, but just ten. No wonder these aristocratic families were all crazy, and they all said something even if they took out 350,000 taels of silver and wanted to win a sword, and even brought a message to Ping Tongfeng to ask him to give up in advance.
