Chapter 170

……

It was night, in the northern border, the five cities in the south of the abandoned land ushered in a disaster in silence.

In Yeyin City, almost all the merchant families in the city were united together. It took only one stick of incense. A merchant association and a soul master family that had stood in Yeyin City for nearly a hundred years were completely wiped out. Yes, all the properties left by these two families are not missing a single cent, as if they are specially reserved for someone to take over.

On the other side, in Cold Iron City, the Spark Caravan was established less than a month ago.

"Miss, let's have some tea."

Weng Zimo's personal maid brought a cup of calming tea, and carefully placed it on the tea table in front of her.

"Well, let it go."

A light and pleasant voice sounded, but it was hard to hide the exhaustion in it. It seemed that this extraordinary lady's life in this cold iron city was not very smooth.

"Miss……"

The maid hesitated to speak, but finally couldn't help but speak.

"Let's go to another place. With our family's strength, why come here to look at other people's colors? I can't help but look at you from the head of the group..."

Weng Zimo rubbed his temples irritably. How could she not know what the maid said, but this time she came out with a military order. If she can successfully open the trade route between the Spark Caravan and the South this time, then She will be the next star of the Spark Caravan.

In her original idea, the most suitable place would be Yeyin City, but who would have thought that that person really didn't know what to do, so he was very angry when he said it.

As for the remaining four cities, except for Cold Iron City, which is firmly controlled by the Cold Iron Mercenary Group, the other three cities are almost in chaos.

What troubled her the most was the iron law of the Spark Caravan, that they were not allowed to participate in the struggle between any forces, let alone expand their territories outside, unless outsiders attacked first.

Damn it, sometimes she really wants to dig those old ancestors out of the ground and ask them what's going on in their minds. What's more important is that the elders of the Spark Caravan are still obediently implementing these iron laws.

"Should we continue to let him be so rude?"

"Ugh……"

Some unwilling Weng Zimo let out a long sigh.

"If it doesn't work, I'll write a letter back to the headquarters tomorrow and ask them to send an enshrinement over to beat and beat."

But once this is done, even if she really succeeds in opening up the business route, everyone will feel that she has borrowed the power of the headquarters, even if she only asks the priest to come and say a few words.

"By the way, how did the investigation I asked you go?"

A few days ago, her subordinates suddenly discovered that there were many spark caravan carriages coming and going in Yeyin City every day, so she specially sent someone to the house to inquire about the situation there.

"I've made it clear that it is Ms. Xu who is buying military supplies, medicines and other supplies. By the way, Miss Xu, why can Ms. Xu participate in the struggle of the forces?"

"Why do you say that Xu Shishi was involved in the struggle of the forces? Did she kill the second master Guan? Even if the people above investigate, they can't do anything about her. She can definitely say that she is in charge of Yeyin City Don’t forget, the entire Yeyin City is only controlled by that guy.”

After talking so much, Weng Zimo felt his tongue was a little dry, but he froze immediately when he picked up the teacup to his mouth.

"What did you just say? What did that girl Xu Shishi buy?"

The maid was taken aback by Weng Zimo's abnormal behavior, and immediately replied.

"They are all military supplies, such as standard cotton clothes and boots, and some medicines in the blood."

After hearing this, Weng Zimo's face became more serious, and he confirmed again.

"Are you sure that girl bought a large amount of Huaxue Powder?"

The maid thought about it carefully, her tone was affirmative.

"It's confirmed. It is said that nearly one-tenth of the backlog of Huaxue powder in the headquarters has been taken away."

Which side does Yeyin City want to wage war against? !Weng Zimo said to a lunatic, Huaxue powder is a special herbal medicine product, the preparation of this kind of medicine is simple, but it is extremely difficult to preserve, especially in high temperature or low temperature environment, it is easy to lose the efficacy of the medicine, this is special Everything has stepped into the cold winter with one foot, and Yeyin City still wants to buy this kind of thing.

It's just that she really can't figure it out. At this juncture, which force are they trying to attack, and what are they trying to do?
If it was for the resources to survive this winter, then their behavior was undoubtedly putting the cart before the horse. Weng Zimo recalled that guy named Xia Yi, with his cunning, it was impossible to make such a mistake, so why?
"Let there be a day when there is no choice."

The cup in her hand fell to the ground, and Weng Zimo thought of it. She knew which side Yeyin City was going to start a war against, and it was the Cold Iron Mercenary Group.

"Xiaoqing..."

Weng Zimo grabbed the maid's hand with a trembling tone.

"Hurry up, go to the Cold Iron Mercenary Group..."

The voice stopped at this point. She cannot participate in the power struggle. This is the iron law. She can also provide weapons and medicines for the Cold Iron Mercenary Group, provided that the Cold Iron Mercenary Group is willing to pay for it, but she She must not participate in any direct form, otherwise what awaits her is punishment.

"Go and send out a message to tell the caravans leading to various places not to return to Cold Iron City, unless you get my order again. In addition... from now on, let's close the mansion and mobilize all our manpower to the mansion. go!"

"But Miss..."

Although I know that my young lady's decision-making has always been extremely correct, but the order she gave this time is really a bit incomprehensible.

"Would it arouse the suspicion of the Cold Iron Mercenary Group if we mobilize our men on a large scale at such a late hour?"

Weng Zimo gritted his teeth.

"It's only good if it arouses suspicion. Can't you learn from others in Yeyin City? How difficult is it to arrange more people to watch the night at night!"

The maid Qing'er didn't suspect him, and ran out on tiptoe, but turned back after only three breaths, with a panicked look on her face.

"It's not good, miss! Someone is calling into the city!"

Weng Zimo suddenly stood up in disbelief.

"How could it be so fast?!"

According to her calculations, the action will take place the day after tomorrow at the earliest, which is a full two days in advance.

She hurried out to check, but saw that the night sky in the west had been illuminated with red light, and the huge footsteps coming from the street showed that Hantiecheng was flustered by this raid. Support has yet to arrive.

"Miss, what shall we do now?"

Although she is no stranger to this kind of thing, Qing'er still feels a little flustered. This kind of war between forces often leads to the death of hundreds of people.

Weng Zimo's face changed again and again, and finally returned to calm, and let out a long sigh.

"Let's go back and wait."

"Wait?"

Qing'er is about to die of anxiety, did my ice-snow smart lady burn out her brain today?The sound of beatings and killings in this city spread by itself. Although it is not possible to run away, you can't just wait so stupidly, right? !

Weng Zimo is the most helpless person. Based on her current understanding of that force, she doesn't believe that person named Xia Yi will fight an unprepared battle. As for why this battle is only fought today?It is estimated that his second master is back.

Since there is no room for her to choose, all she has to do is to calm her mind, and there will be a difficult negotiation waiting for her in a while.

But this time... She completely lost the right to choose.
