Chapter 755: Grabbing Territory

"Xiaomi, apologize!" Grandpa Qin scolded in a deep voice, dissatisfied with her rudeness to her elders.

The clerk said hurriedly, "Uncle Qin, please don't blame my niece. It's good that I can speak out my true feelings. At least it's better than those children who keep silent and suffer in silence."

Qin Xiaomi smiled: "Look, Uncle Guan thinks it's good to speak frankly... I'm sorry, Uncle Guan."

After he apologized, Grandpa Qin's expression improved.

Everyone continued to sit down and talk about the Yamanouchi spies.

"It is a foregone conclusion that there are spies lurking in the mountains, there are descendants of spies, the old village is another spy den, and A-Zu is suspected to be a spy."

"Bazi, Aweng, and the mountain people who got the token to meet Azu directly are likely to be descendants of spies... but they may not know it."

"The current problem is that the relationship between the mountain people and our court outside the mountain is not deep, and the mountain people will recognize you as one of their own as long as you continue to live in the mountains and admit that you are a mountain person."

"So even if we tell the mountain people who are the spies and who are the descendants of the spies, they will not feel anything. They may even help the spies, just because those are brothers who live with them day and night."

"It's not possible to just send troops in to attack..."

"The spies have infiltrated the mountains for many years. I'm afraid they have become leaders. They can command the mountain people to resist with just one order. If we send troops directly in to attack, the end result will be a lose-lose situation for both sides."

"So Captain Lang and his men discussed for a long time before deciding to use a gentle method to win over the mountain people and then slowly catch the real spies and their descendants."

Everyone listed out various key points.

but……

Qin Xiaomi said: "After all, my Qin family still has to endure and support Bazi and the others, but on what basis?"

Hua Zongqi hurriedly said: "Master Qin, please be patient... The Qin family does not need to keep holding back. We just need the Qin family to continue to patiently cooperate with the Wei army."

Qin Xiaomi looked at him and asked, "Can I cripple that bastard? Can I cripple mountain people like bastard?"

This?
Little girl, can't we be a little gentler?
Jiang Dalang smiled secretly and promised: "Don't be angry, Xiaomi. The Wei army will find a way to deal with Bazi and the others. They won't be able to jump around for long, at least they won't jump around in front of you."

Qin Xiaomi pointed to the paper on the table and said, "Write down your promise."

"Okay." Jiang Dalang wrote what he had just said on the contract between the Wei army and the Qin family.

Hua Zongqi and Pang Zhanggui: "..."

You listen too much to your fiancée.

But Captain Lang and his men handed the task of "dealing with the mountain folks and luring out the spies hidden in the mountains" to Jiang Dalang. They were just cooperating, so they knew better and kept their mouths shut.

Everyone continued to discuss and finally made the next arrangements...

Jiang Dalang said: "Xiaomi should continue to play the good guy. He should get angry when necessary and should not tolerate the villagers too much... The Qin family should continue to help the chieftain with his treatment. He is a living signboard for the villagers and nothing can happen to him. So we should also be on guard against Bazi Aweng and others who might harm the chieftain."

"The Third Village Chief is greedy, and we can defeat him with people and money, so we can continue to win him over... I will credit Fourth Master Qu for his contribution here."

"Bazi and Aweng are very vain, especially since they are envious of the third village leader recently, so we can use a beauty to hit them and see how they deal a blow."

The discussion lasted until it was completely dark.

Jiang Dalang divided the token rubbing papers among them and said, "Uncle Guan, Shopkeeper Pang, General Hua, and I, let's all try to forge a token. We may need it in the future."

Hmm, hmm, hmm, everyone responded, and became more and more convinced of Jiang Dalang.

Qin Xiaomi looked at Jiang Dalang, then looked away after a while... He was smart and resourceful, but his methods were still too naive and too merciful compared to those of the Dog Emperor.

Take the matter of the mountain people for example. Even if the dog emperor had no military force, he had already devised a plan to make the internal strife between the two feuding gangs of mountain people turn into a direct fight.

No matter who dies, the fight should start early, and a large number of people will die early, so that the remaining people can be easily subdued.

Then, they can interrogate him however they want and easily find out who the spy is among the survivors. There is no need to be so roundabout.

Going roundabout is such a waste of time and it makes you angry!

It must be said that the dog emperor's ruthless tactics were more effective. After the meeting was over, it was already dark, and General Hua, Xiao Tao, Manager Pang and others did not stay any longer and left immediately.

Guan Shuli stayed for dinner.

At this time, the small door leading to the back house opened, and Grandma Qin brought people out with food, and greeted the clerk with a smile: "You've been busy all day, sit down and eat. I made a basil fried egg to dispel spring dampness and coldness."

"Aunt Qin, you have worked hard." Guan Shuli smiled, looked back, and when he saw Aunt Qin, his smile deepened. He took the tableware basket from Aunt Qin's hand and helped to set the table.

Qin Xiaomi and Jiang Xiaozhu looked gossipy and stared at them.

Qin Xiaogu blushed and said angrily, "What are you looking at? It's time to eat."

"Yes, yes, let's eat, eat." Jiang Xiaozhu responded and helped to serve the rice.

The two families, plus the clerk, a total of twelve people, had a warm dinner together.

After the meal, the clerk Guan talked about the negotiations with the mountain people: "Although the negotiations still failed, it's not a big problem. The Qin family can just live their lives as usual. But we still have to be careful. Don't trust the mountain people easily. Always bring someone with you wherever you go."

After giving them a lot of instructions, the clerk still felt uneasy, so he asked tentatively, "Uncle Qin and Aunt Qin, I want to leave Youyu at the Qin family to protect them at night. What do you think?"

He asked tentatively because he was afraid that the Qin family would not accept his kindness... Many fathers-in-law felt that accepting the kindness of their sons-in-law was a blow to their self-esteem.

Today, my granddaughter flipped the table and started swearing, and Grandpa Qin was afraid that his family would be stabbed by some mean-spirited villagers.

So Grandpa Qin didn't refuse, but only asked: "Leave the surplus to my family. You are the only lucky one around you. Can you make use of it?"

The clerk smiled and said, "Uncle Qin, don't worry. I have people around me who can help me."

"Okay, when the villagers return to the mountains, you can take the surplus back." Grandpa Qin agreed.

Youyu is a master, much better than the soldiers on guard. With him on guard, Qin Xiaomi can feel more at ease, so she thanked him: "Thank you, Uncle Guan."

Guan Shuli smiled, called Youyu who was outside the house, and told him what had happened.

Youyu bowed to everyone in the Qin family, and the matter was settled.

Only then did Guan Shuli get up and go home with peace of mind.

……

The next day, Qin Xiaomi slept in and didn't get up until 9 o'clock.

After breakfast, he took his servants and Aunt Qin to the construction site of the medicinal materials workshop.

Why do we need to bring Aunt Qin along?

Grandma Qin said that she was already fourteen and a grown-up girl, and whenever she went out she had to be accompanied by her fiancé or a female elder.

If she wasn't allowed to accompany her, Grandma Qin would cry.

Qin Xiaomi had no choice but to compromise.

The open space where the medicine shop is located is between the old street and the new street. The land is very wide, at least three miles long and wide.

As long as the medicinal materials workshop is built, the old street and the new street can be connected, which is equivalent to expanding the town.

By then, there will be no distinction between the old street and the new street. This area will be just a street, and the entire Taifeng Town will be more lively and prosperous.

So before the foundation of the Qin family's medicinal materials workshop was dug, there were already several construction teams nearby, all scrambling for the land to build shops, waiting to get some extra cash.

Qin Xiaomi got out of the car, glanced around, ignored the construction sites, and walked towards the construction site of the Qin family's medicinal materials workshop.

"Mr. Qin? Is that Mr. Qin's carriage in front?!" Village chief Cao and his wife, along with their entire family, ran towards Qin's vehicle.

Qin Xiaomi pretended not to hear and kept walking.

"Mr. Qin, please stay. We have something important to report to you." Village Chief Cao shouted anxiously.
