Chapter 785 Who cares about him?

Mouping

Goods are the best shops in the world

Zuo Mingchan looked solemnly, and after looking at Zhou Mingli, he said, "This matter is beyond our imagination. We must send someone back to report to the lord immediately. If we continue to investigate, we obviously have insufficient staff and cannot touch it at all. Now we can confirm that those people are from the military, but we cannot determine which team of troops it is. But since we can do such a thing in Dongjiang, most of the tenth cannot do without the Mu Mansion..."

"I understand why the people in the Mu family want to give Mouping to Yang Shunhui!"

Zhou Mingli suddenly raised his head: "If the Mu Mansion bought a large number of firearms from foreigners, then Yang Shunhui's entry into Mu Ping is just a trick for Mu Mansion. If you give Mouping to Yang Shunhui, who would suspect that the Mu Mansion was the Mu Mansion who traded firearms with foreigners? Yang Shunhui is a shield. No wonder Mu Mansion gave out Mouping, who earned money every day."

Zuo Mingchan nodded: "The people who traded are from Dongchu, but obviously the foreigners behind the scenes."

Zhou Mingli suddenly thought of one thing: "I have been in Mouping for a long time, and when dealing with the merchants of Dongchu, I can always hear some things on the other side of the ocean. The merchants of Dongchu have mentioned before that after the Duchy of Ross was swallowed up by the Oplu Empire, the Oplu Empire sent a grand duke named Shuluns to take over the Duchy of Ross and began to suppress the original nobles of Ross... and those nobles of Ross naturally would not sit still and wait for death, so they formed a rebel army to fight with the army of the Oplu Empire, but because of their limited strength, they could only make small fuss."

Zuo Mingchan thought carefully: "So, if you analyze this, it is definitely not the people from the Oplu Empire who sell firearms to the Sui people, but the rebels of the Ross. They need to exchange firearms for money and expand their army, and they can also use firearms for support from the Sui people. In the eastern border of the Great Sui Dynasty, the only one who has the strength to support the Ross rebels is Mu Mansion!"

Zhou Mingli's face changed: "What secret agreement does the people in the Mu family and the foreigners have!"

"That's right!"

Zuo Mingchan's eyes sterned: "It is obviously not enough for our current personnel to find out about the Mu Mansion. But we can start from another direction. If the rebels of the Mu Mansion are dealing with the Ross Kingdom, then the Dongchu merchants in the city are just here to cover them. Behind the Dongchu merchants, there must be people from the Ross Kingdom rebels staring at them."

He stood up and said, "What we need to do now is to find out as soon as possible that the Dongchu merchants have shipped the caravan, and then keep a close eye on them. We will definitely find the people from the Ross rebels. If we can catch a few Ross rebels... this matter will be revealed."

"Several foreigners moved in at Tongsheng Inn."

Zhou Ming thought about it: "When I sent someone out to stare at the Dongchu merchants yesterday, I saw a few foreigners coming out of the General's Mansion and staying in Tongsheng Inn."

Zuo Mingchan was stunned: "If these foreigners were rebels from the Ross Kingdom, then... Yang Shunhui also knew about this?"

Zhou Mingli shook his head: "That's something wrong. If Yang Shun knew about this, there was no need for the people in the Mu Mansion to do things secretly. You can put the transaction in the General's Mansion, so who would see it? There is no need for the Mu Mansion to hand over Mouping to Yang Shun. As long as Mouping is still in the hands of the people in the Mu Mansion, wouldn't it be more convenient to trade?"

"Makes"

Zuo Mingchan nodded: "Then these foreigners may have nothing to do with the rebels of the Ross country."

"I'm thinking..."

Zhou Mingli said: "Why do the people in the Mu family do so much? If it is just to cover up the matter of trading firearms with the rebels of the Ross Kingdom, Mouping is obviously more convenient in their hands and can do it more secretly. Unless the people in the Mu family are afraid of something, once this matter is exposed, the people in the Mu family can shirk their responsibilities, because Mouping is from Yang Shunhui now!"

"What are you afraid of?"

Zuo Mingchan paced back and forth, his eyes flashing: "There is nothing in the Sui Dynasty that the people in the Mu Mansion can be afraid of. The people in the imperial court were restrained by Luo Tu's rebels and could not move in Jiangnan. The only remaining troops in Gyeonggi Province were to defend against those in the northwest Jin Shixiong. In the eastern border of the Sui Dynasty, who could worry the people in the Mu Mansion?"

"No"

Zhou Mingli shook his head: "If even the court is not afraid of it, what else can the Mu Mansion be afraid of?"

"The person Mu's family is afraid of is not in the Great Sui Dynasty!"

Zuo Mingchan suddenly found the idea: "The people in the Mu Mansion secretly trade firearms. First, they don't want the people of the Sui Dynasty to know about this. They want to train an army equipped with firearms. Who can't guess at now? Second, the people in the Mu Mansion went around such a big circle to trade with the people of the Ross rebels. They were not afraid of the people of the Central Plains, but... the powerful Oplu Empire on the other side of the ocean!"

Zhou Mingli suddenly realized: "If this is the case, then it can be explained clearly. The people of the Oplu Empire are definitely not allowed to sell firearms to the Sui people. If the Mu Mansion wants to buy firearms, they can only deal with the rebels of the Ross Kingdom. Once the people of the Oplu Empire know, the people of the Mu Mansion are worried that if the people of the Oplu Empire find out that the Mu Mansion deal with the Ross Kingdom rebels, they will retaliate against the people of the Mu Mansion."

"Yang Shunhui is really a shield!"

Zuo Mingchan was stunned for a moment: "In other words, the people in the Mu Mansion knew very well about the matter on the other side of the ocean. Since they were afraid of the Oplu Empire, it means that this country must be very powerful!"

"Send someone to go back and report to the lord immediately."

He said with a serious tone: "Anyway, this matter seems to be moving in the direction that the lord is worried about. The lord personally wrote a letter to remind the Mu Mansion and Yang Shunhui to remind them to beware of foreigners. Now it seems that no one cares about the lord's reminder. The people in the Mu Mansion want to use the Ross rebels to provide firearms to equip the army. I not only found muskets, but also unassembled cannons from the caravan's carriage..."

"Mu Mansion, we are finally going to join Zhulu Central Plains."

Zhou Mingli sighed, his eyes full of worry.

"But what the lord is worried about..."

Zuo Mingchan sighed: "Foreign people"

...

...

There are two main streets in Mouping, one is north and south, and one is east and west. More than 80% of the restaurants, casinos, brothels and inns in the city are concentrated on these two streets. In order to facilitate transactions, merchants from south and north also choose to live on these two streets, so the inn business is excellent.

Although the Dongchu merchants were stingy, they would not live in remote places because of their feelings of distress. In that case, the delayed business would cost much more money than they would save.

Therefore, the people from the Xiaoqi School soon discovered that there was a group of Dongchu people who were suspicious. The masters selected from the Tianxiaochuan and the people from the Xiaoqi School stared at the Dongchu people, staring at them for a day and a night, and finally found clues. After the transaction, one of the Dongchu people kept wandering on the streets that were walking east and west. They first found a restaurant to have dinner, and then went to the teahouse to listen to the opera, and did not leave until it was dark.

They took advantage of the night to leave the teahouse and then turned into an alley. The people from the Knight School followed carefully, and those people seemed to be very alert. They would separate one person in another direction without passing a fork in the road. There was no doubt that this was enough to confuse the people who followed them.

Although these people did not notice anyone following them, they remained wary.

If it weren't for the staff of the Xiaoqi School, it would have been almost lost. Because it was impossible to determine which of the people assigned to the school was the main target, the Xiaoqi School could only allocate personnel. It was not until the second half of the night that it was confirmed that those people lived in a very inconspicuous inn east of the city.

Perhaps even the people from the Mouping Government Office are hard to find this place.

However, it can be concluded from this that there must be something wrong with this group of Dongchu people. Such a remote place and such careful guarding can only show that they have a ghost in their hearts. After discovering where they were settled, the people from the Knight School immediately notified Zuo Mingchan.

Zuo Mingchan and his men arrived here while the night was dark.

"I'll take two people to see. You can hide around this inn. Don't show your tracks. Don't do anything without my orders!"

Zuo Mingchan gave an order, and then took two skilled subordinates to the small inn. The three of them were good at light skills. After carefully avoiding the secret whistle outside the inn, they flipped in through the courtyard wall on one side of the inn. This inn is actually a house, and the house should be idle, so they simply opened an inn. There were only two waiters in the room in front, but they were already asleep on the table.

The lights in the courtyard behind were still on. Zuo Mingchan looked inside through the gap in the flower wall and found two people standing at the door of the house. They looked like they were not from the Central Plains. They were tall and had a firearm in their hands.

He signaled his two subordinates not to move, and then he quietly flipped over the courtyard wall on one side, jumped onto the roof lightly, then walked from the roof to the eaves with one hand, hooked the eaves with one hand, fell down obliquely, and peered into the room from the window above, while the two foreigners guarding the gate stood under him but did not notice it.

The Dongchu people in the room were saying something in foreign words. A foreigner sitting on a chair interrupted and asked a few questions from time to time. Zuo Mingchan didn't understand foreign words, so he didn't understand a single word.

He took out the incense from his skin. When he was about to poke the window paper, he suddenly felt a slight sound of footsteps. He immediately turned back to the roof and lay down.

Immediately afterwards, a few figures flipped in from outside the courtyard wall with very light movements. Several of them blew out stings with blow pipes, and the two foreigners guarding the door fell down softly. Then the few people approached the house, and then about six or seven people jumped in.

Zuo Mingchan was stunned and thought to himself, who else was staring at this group of people besides himself?

He did not dare to act rashly, but leaned his head down to look down. There were about a dozen people coming in. Although they were very flexible, Zuo Mingchan was sure that these people did not know how to practice, but they were more agile. After entering the yard, these people took off the short gun from their belts, which shows their identity.

Zuo Mingchan felt moved, thinking why so many foreigners came into Moupingli? Obviously, the later foreigners were definitely not from the same group as the people in the house. If the people in the house were from the rebels of the Ross Kingdom, then were these people?

Before Zuo Mingchan could figure it out, there was already something wrong in the yard below. Later, the foreigners kicked the door open and rushed in with a short gun. Then they heard a few scoldings, but Zuo Mingchan still didn't understand. He hung his body from the eaves and looked down, and found that the foreigner in the room had been subdued and cursed something. And the Dongchu people were all held down and cut their throats with daggers.

This group of foreigners is extremely cruel.

At this time, the two guys who heard the shouts got up and rubbed their sleepy eyes to the backyard. Two foreigners came out of the house and waved to the guy and said something. The guy couldn't understand, so he quickly rushed to the backyard. Zuo Mingchan's eyes changed, and he knew that these foreigners were going to kill and silence him.

No matter who he is, he will take it first!

Zuo Mingchan flipped out a whistle and bounced his fingers away. After the whistle flew out, it made a very sharp sound, just like the scream of a bird. The foreigners in the yard looked up but didn't care. Speaking of these useful small tricks in the world, they were too far apart.
