Chapter 376 Extra Chapter: Song Erniang (18)

Long Hanshi had previously told Song Erniang that he was traveling southwest with the Ye family's caravan, and the money would be calculated based on the length of the journey. There were quite a few goods going to the southwest, and many of them were valuable. Since the caravan was led by the Third Master of the Ye family, the money for everyone would be even higher.

I estimate I can get a hundred taels.

Knowing that the caravan was being accompanied by elderly members of the Ye family, Song Erniang became even more nervous.

"Tell me about what happened this time, or I won't feel at ease!" Song Erniang stared at Long Hanshi.

Long Hanshi initially didn't want to talk, but simply stuffed three one-hundred-tael silver notes into Song Erniang's hand.

"Will you talk or not? If you don't, you'll be sleeping on the floor!" Song Erniang said angrily.

Long Hanshi quickly sat up straight. "Wife! Sit tight, I'll tell you how wonderful our trip was!"

...

The goods transported by the Ye family this time, which were publicly stated to be goods from the Ye family merchant caravan, actually included many items that the Southwest Army secretly purchased in Jiangnan at the request of the imperial court and sent to the Biao Kingdom.

This matter cannot be handled openly, otherwise other forces in the Biao Kingdom would definitely cause trouble, arguing that the Dayu side is biased towards a certain force.

Because of some future plans, a certain talent in the imperial court approached the Ye family's merchant caravan.

If the goods weren't a bit special this time, the Third Master of the Ye family wouldn't have personally led the team.

Unfortunately, this news reached other forces within the Biao Kingdom when it entered their territory.

Those forces just wanted to double-cross each other...

It's true that they don't dare to touch the merchant caravans of Dayu on the surface, especially the imperial merchant Ye family, who are even less likely to do so.

But even after learning what was inside the goods, the men still decided to take the risk.

They planned to ambush caravans, plunder their goods, and then frame other forces...

The Ye family's caravan had a very smooth journey within the territory of Dayu, but after entering the former territory of Biao Kingdom... all sorts of troubles began.

They drugged people, set up obstacles, and even bribed some people at the post stations along the way...

The older members of the Ye family caravan could handle any other troubles, but once they entered the post station... everyone would definitely relax.

At the beginning, Long Hanshi just followed the group and didn't stand out.

But after entering the post station, Long Hanshi felt like a completely different person.

The things his master had taught him immediately came to mind.

The most relaxing places are often the most dangerous places...

The waiter used the wrong wrist position when he brought the food over; it was obvious he was nervous, a sign of guilt...

The innkeeper was clearly distracted while feeding the horses...

Also, the food tasted right, but the steamed buns that were served were suspicious. While others might not be able to smell it, Long Hanshi had a master who could become the leader of the top assassin organization, and this master had allowed Long Hanshi to smell and test various sleeping pills…

Long Hanshi has developed some resistance!

Long Hanshi watched the minor official at the post station chatting warmly with Master Ye, and he hoped that he was just overthinking things...

But the truth is... the minor official at that post station has already been bribed.

The men following Master Ye inspected all the vegetables, but they overlooked the basket of steamed buns...

After finishing their meal, everyone in the caravan felt completely exhausted, except for Long Hanshi, who remained unresponsive.

But he pretended to be just as weak as everyone else...

Seeing everyone staring at him in shock, the junior official at the post station simply sighed.

"Third Master, I'm so sorry! I had no choice... They gave me more money than I could ever spend in a lifetime."

Don't worry, you're a member of the Ye family, we wouldn't dare touch you, but we'll definitely take these goods with us.

"You'll be fine by midnight!"

After saying that, the minor official at the post station sent a signal outside...

Just as he finished sending the signal, he turned around and saw someone standing next to him.

“You…” The post station official looked at the person in surprise.

This person was a newcomer to the caravan, completely unremarkable, and he hadn't paid any attention to him, but this person...

"How are you alright?" The post station official's lips were trembling. He clearly saw him eat a lot; he ate three steamed buns...

How could nothing have happened to them...?

Ye Sanye and his men also looked at Long Hanshi in surprise.

This kid... he was just eating with them, how come he's perfectly fine! It's unbelievable!

"Oh, you mean this! These things are useless to me! Can't you just be a good person?"

You insist on taking money and playing the bad guy; aren't you just preventing me from making money?

"Hey, you dare to come up here!" Long Hanshi grabbed the waiter by the neck with one hand, and with a forceful pull, the waiter's eyes widened and his hands fell limply to his sides.

The junior official at the post station was terrified and turned to run away, but was grabbed by Long Hanshi.

"Third Master, is this person a bad guy?" Long Hanshi turned to ask Third Master Ye, who was leaning weakly against the chair.

"Leave them alive!" Master Ye shouted with all his might.

Upon hearing this, Long Hanshi casually dislocated the innkeeper's jaw, then kicked him in both legs. The innkeeper, unable to speak and only able to groan, immediately had his legs crack with a series of sounds...

With his legs broken, arms dislocated, and jaw severed, the innkeeper watched in despair as his comrades ran toward them...

Long Hanshi, on the other hand, pulled up a chair and sat down at the entrance of the post station...

Those who were temporarily unable to move watched in disbelief as Long Hanshi dealt with the Biao Guo people who had received the signal to transport goods one by one.

When the honest and simple-minded Long Han saw these people, his eyes lit up.

He made a killing move the moment he struck, without any hesitation, and was more efficient than anyone else, as if he had practiced it many times.

These people are from Biao Kingdom, and also from foreign lands. As my wife said, any foreign land people have had designs on Dayu. Otherwise, why would they have stationed a Southwest Army in the southwest?

These people are still trying to steal the goods they are escorting; they are definitely not good people.

Therefore, with the added advantage of being from a foreign land and dealing with bad guys, Long Hanshi had no psychological burden at all when dealing with these people.

Presumably because he thought it was dirty, he didn't use a knife. Basically, everyone's neck was snapped by Long Hanshi, leaving no chance for treatment...

Of course, in the end, two were spared. It was only because Master Ye said he would send the two to Long Hanshi of the Southwest Army that he showed mercy.

By the early hours of the morning, everyone who had been given the medicine had recovered.

Looking at the intact goods and the corpses scattered on the ground, everyone looked at Long Hanshi with deep respect.

This is a true master of seclusion! He looks honest, but his every move is a deadly strike.

Master Ye was so happy he couldn't stop smiling.

The Ye family has struck gold! This person must stay with the Ye family, by their side, and cannot be snatched away by other merchant caravans.

"Master Long, you've worked hard!" Master Ye immediately bowed to Long Hanshi.

Long Hanshi was so frightened that he quickly took two steps back.

Master Long? Who are you calling? Should I call him? Honesty and simple sounds much better...
