Chapter 118 The Eight Wrathful Families
"Take your bank notes and enter the customs at any place. The head of my family is merciful, not only saving your lives, but also buying your goods at a high price. You can go." The sentence suddenly said loudly .

"Leave like this?" Apparently those merchants did not expect that the horse bandits in front of them would be so kind. Instead of killing themselves, they even bought their own goods at a high price. Believe it, but it is the truth.

"Why don't you leave?" Jutu stared, his murderous aura enveloped the crowd, scaring the vendors to run away in embarrassment.How dare you stop here.

"As for you, you have already killed your shopkeeper. If the news gets out, let alone we will kill you, even the Fan family and those eight great families will also kill you." Ju Tu said in a dark voice: "Now There are only two paths for you, one path is to tell the Fan family what happened here, and the other path is to escape back to Zhangjiakou with some injuries on your body, saying that you met a horse bandit and the old shopkeeper died in battle, You may be able to escape with your lives, but hey, if one day, when we attack Zhangjiakou, you will set fire to the city and support us. When we break through Zhangjiakou, each of you will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver."

"Ah!" The remaining servants and vendors of the Fan family were shocked. They didn't expect Li Xin and others to stay behind for this kind of thing, and everyone hesitated for a while.

"Only some of you can leave here, and some of you will follow some of our troops to escort these things to our old camp." After receiving Li Xin's signal, Jutu said loudly: "This group of people, We will stay in the old camp, and we will not be able to go back to reunite with our families until we conquer Zhangjiakou. Don’t worry, your life in our old camp will definitely not be much worse than at home. Now that you can divide, are you going to go back with some injuries? Ready to stay with us!"

"I'm willing to go back." A servant with a gloomy face said without thinking.

"I am willing too." In an instant, two or three people said loudly.

"Kill them." Gou Tu was about to speak, when Li Xin's cold voice suddenly came, and as soon as he finished speaking, several sharp arrows flew out, shooting the four people into hedgehogs, they were already dead and could not die anymore up.

"Hmph, I really thought I didn't know it was hiding here." Li Xin rode forward, and when he walked up to those people, he used the tip of a knife to slit their clothes, only to see a stack of papers inside.That sentence suddenly didn't dare to neglect, jumped off the horse quickly, took out all these papers and handed them to Li Xin.

"Tongguan Defense Map, Guanzhong Military and Horse Map, Luoyang Grain and Grass Reserve." Li Xin flipped through these papers, and a trace of coldness appeared on the corner of his mouth. This is the result of the Eight Great Families. It's useless for a short time, but it will definitely be useful when Jiannu goes south to herd horses in the Central Plains in the future.

"These guys are really damned." Ju Tu kicked those guys viciously, and then asked curiously, "Master, how do you know these guys still have these things on them?"

"Hmph, we meant to hurt them, but we didn't say where the injury was. Maybe it was breaking their arm, or chopping off their fingers, or gouging out their eyes. It's different, anyone who encounters this kind of situation will first think about it. Just like them." Li Xin pointed to the people on the other side, then pointed at the four people on the ground, and said with a sneer: "Only Without even thinking about it, they said that they would rather be injured. Obviously these guys are going back no matter where they are injured, which makes me strange. Sure enough, this is the real big fish. These guys go back, I will definitely tell the Fan family everything here, and then not only will our plan not be implemented, but even those merchants who fled back will be in bad luck."

"The head of the family is wise." Not only was Jutu surprised, but the remaining servants of the Eight Great Families also showed admiration on their faces.

"Gudu, what should I tell them to go back? lest they go back and say something wrong. Hmph, we have to go to the next place. The Eight Great Masters have more than one business trip!" Li Xin put his legs on the horse, lazily Going away towards the distance, behind him, Jutu is finishing up.

Three days later, Li Xin once again led his soldiers and horses to kill the Tian Family Merchant Brigade among the Eight Great Families. For a while, his soldiers and horses increased again, and there were gradually more legends about Li Xin on the grassland, saying that there was a man on the grassland. The horse bandit, the leader, wears a silver wolf mask and holds a big knife in his hand. He is brutal and ferocious. More importantly, this horse bandit is specially looking for trouble for the Eight Families. , and even a small tribe, in order to curry favor with the Eight Great Families, was completely slaughtered by the other party with the momentum of thunder.All of a sudden, the business travelers on the grassland ran away as soon as they saw the wolf banner, and the business travelers who entered the grassland were also panicked.

And the business travelers in Zhangjiakou are also talking about this matter. Many people dare not leave the customs at this time. And offending the evil wolves, bandits, and bandits will make you unhappy, and you will lose both your life and money.The Zhangjiakou horse market, which used to be very lively, also had a lot of bleak business because of Li Xin.The eight major families headed by the Fan family suffered heavy losses.More importantly, the prestige of the eight major families has plummeted, and this is the most important thing.

When a merchant brigade united by the eight major families was wiped out and only dozens of people escaped back, the eight major families finally couldn't sit still. Fan Yongdou finally called the heads of the eight major families together in the Fan family compound to discuss this matter.The principals of the Eight Great Families, including Wang Dengku, Jin Liangyu, Wang Dayu, Liang Jiabin, Tian Shenglan, Zhai Tang, and Huang Yunfa, gathered together.

"It was just a small matter at first, but I didn't expect it to develop to the point where it is now. It's the old man's fault." Fan Yongdou's face was calm, but there was a smile on his face.

"I don't know what Patriarch Fan is talking about is Li Xin?" Wang Dengku frowned, and said disdainfully: "But is it necessary to pay so much attention to teenage children? Didn't they say that? Li Xin doesn't need us at all. Come to deal with it, no matter where it is or the court will not let Li Xin go." Everyone knew that the side Wang Dengku was talking about referred to Jiannu.

"The East was defeated by Li Xin this time, and there will be endless changes in the future." Fan Yongdou sighed.

"Isn't this a good thing? The worse they lose, the more they will buy from us." Wang Dayu laughed wickedly, his eyes wandered, but he looked extremely cunning.

"Yeah, with our help these years, the east side has gained a lot of advantage. Although we have obtained a lot from them, relatively speaking, what they seek is the country, while we are just a mere merchant. , what he got is far less than that of the other party." Although Tian Shenglan gave a woman's name, he was a strong man with a fleshy face. If it weren't for the gloomy gaze that flickered from time to time in his long and narrow eyes, people would have thought This Tian Shenglan is just a butcher.

"Li Xin's matter is secondary. Now a horse bandit has risen on the grassland. There are more than a thousand people. They are very brave. The leader wears a silver wolf mask and holds a big knife. I don't know. Where did it come from, to fight against our eight great families." Fan Yongdou shook his head and said, "In less than ten days, I have already lost 10,000+ taels of silver, I believe you have lost a lot too!" Everyone Hearing the words, he didn't speak, but his face was very gloomy. Obviously, Fan Yongdou's words resonated with everyone. Fan Yongdou was not the only one who suffered this kind of loss, and the rest of the people would follow suit.

"10,000+ taels of silver is just a drop in the bucket for us, but now this group of bandits appears outside the horse market. With this group of horse bandits on the grassland, our goods can go to the grassland. "Huang Yun said with a cold snort: "The businessmen gathered in Zhangjiakou have shaken their confidence in us. If this goes on for a long time, it will be extremely unfavorable."

"What did the general's mansion say?" Zhai Tang said coldly, "With so much money from us every year, don't you want to work at this time?"

"You mean the General's Mansion?" Fan Yongdou showed a hint of disdain, and said, "Depend on those people, I'm afraid they will run away as soon as they meet a thief. My servants are more elite than these people."

"That's the old way, let the beards deal with it!" Wang Dengku said lightly: "I believe that the sudden appearance of horse bandits has already touched the interests of those beards on the grassland. Use these guys to deal with the horse bandits." It's just the right time for the gangsters. At worst, just pay some more money."

"Where did this banditry come from? The old man has a feeling of uneasiness in his heart. This banditry came very suddenly." Fan Yongdou said softly.

"So what? No matter how powerful the opponent is, they can't do anything to us?" Zhai Tang said disdainfully: "Where are we now? It's in Zhangjiakou. Xuanfu is a dozen miles away from here. 10,000+ elite soldiers are there. Nearby, as long as someone comes to attack, that is one word, death. That Lin Danhan is amazing! This person has been on the grassland for so many years, but he watched us spend our days and nights in Zhangjiakou, where there are piles of gold and silver, but what can we do? It's not that they were blocked from Xuanfu."

"That's right." Everyone also nodded, and there was a hint of complacency on their faces. The choice of Zhangjiakou by the eight major families is simply a blessed place.

"Okay, since you all agree to dispatch those people, let those people go! 10 taels, 10 taels per family, how about it?" Fan Yongdou finally made a decision.
