Chapter 116 The Foolish Heroine's Counterattack 18
According to the bearded man from the Hutu caravan who was the only one to escape from the Green Clothes Cult, the Green Clothes Cult's followers are a group of teenage girls who wear green shirts, white skirts and large cloaks. They look delicate and weak, but in addition to their superb kung fu, they can also tame beasts and use poison, and their methods are extremely cruel.
If you encounter the Qingyi Sect, it is best to turn around and run away immediately. Don't fight hard, it will be miserable!
However, the bearded man did not elaborate on how tragic it was. He vaguely revealed that it was a few caravans that had an accident on that road half a year ago...
The bearded man's rumor-mongering science was very hardcore, so hardcore that after the news spread, Ayan's escort agency received dozens of new orders.
Although their escort agency is called "Xiangyang", their attire is very consistent with the legendary Qingyi Sect.
Obviously, the Xiangyang Escort Agency is just an external disguise, and their real identity is the Qingyi Sect!
Since the Qingyi Sect has such a fierce reputation outside, it would definitely be safe to ask them to escort the caravan!
That’s right!
The wealthy businessmen who thought they had understood the secrets of heaven even abandoned the most prestigious escort agency at the time and found the Xiang Escort Agency hidden in the mountain city.
A Yan: Well, it’s quite unexpected!
But Nanxi denied the claim.
She believed that the main reason for the recent booming business was that there was a new lady who could play the piano in the escort agency. She played the piano for them every day and it was said that anyone who heard the music would become rich.
And Nanxi's statement was recognized by more than a dozen little girls.
The person who had the most say among them was Bei Xue, because she picked up two copper coins at the door the day after she listened to the piano girl's performance.
People don’t get lucky for no reason. If they do, it must be because of metaphysics!
The escort agency almost set off a wave of feudal superstition.
Fortunately, A Yan stopped it in time and dispersed the girls to various places to escort the goods.
After half a year of development and growth, the Xiangyang Escort Agency has grown from a dozen people to more than a hundred people now.
These extra girls were some who were rescued along the way, and some who were sold and then snatched back by the sisters.
Not only did the number of people increase, but the beast team also grew a lot stronger.
After robbing several caravans half a year ago, A Yan took his men to the Colosseum owned by one of the caravan owners and looted all the wild beasts inside.
If things continue to develop in this way, Xiangyang Escort Agency will have to expand outward!
When Nanxi found Ayan with the sorted account book, she and Big Cat were playing with the conch that they brought back from escorting.
Nanxi walked over and said, "Miss Ayan, why don't we move our escort agency to a more prosperous place? This way, customers won't have to go to the mountain city first if they want us to escort them!"
Ah Yan asked, "Then why don't you ask the magical conch?"
Nanxi: ???
Ah Yan coughed dryly and said, "What I mean is that our escort agency doesn't have to move. This is our base camp. I plan to set up a branch of the escort agency in a more prosperous place. If the subsequent development is good, we can open branches in more places.
When the time comes, we will only need to deliver the goods to the next base, and then the troops from the next base will escort them. This way, not only can we reduce the risk, but our journey can also be shortened a lot, making it more efficient!"
This mode of operation is also called: express delivery in later generations!
The post stations nowadays follow a similar model, but they not only take a long time, but also only escort large items for the rich and powerful. This is why merchants would rather find escort agencies than take the safer official route.
Nanxi followed Ayan's train of thought and said, "Then where should we set up a branch first?"
Ah Yan returned to his room and took out a map, which was covered with marks and arranged in order.
"Shuzhou...Shuzhou is not far from here. If we encounter any problems that cannot be solved, we can rush there in time. Miss Yan, I understand!"
Nanxi got the answer he wanted and returned to the shop in front with high morale to prepare for opening a branch.
A Yan felt that she had some of the temperament of a curling queen.
She doesn't want to roll, she just wants to play badly!
But her beautiful hope of giving up was shattered by Li Hongmei the next day.
"Miss Ayan, Beixue and the others are in trouble!"
There was no internet in this dynasty, and Ayan was afraid that something might happen to the girls, so every team that set out would bring a tamed pigeon to report safety regularly.
This time, the pigeons from other teams came back one after another.
Only the Beixue team that was heading to the capital had no news yet.
Today, Li Hongmei finally saw the pigeon flying back. But what the pigeon brought back was not a letter announcing safety, but a red rope tied to the pigeon's foot.
Red is a level one warning, meaning they are already in jail and need rescue!
A Yan sighed secretly.
As long as Rong Chi is not dead, or has not completely lost the opportunity to turn things around.
Fate will push her towards Rong Chi countless times until the outcome is decided between her and Rong Chi!
She doesn't want to lose.
So, it's time to go back to the capital.
A Yan counted five girls who followed her to Beijing, including Li Hongmei.
Li Hongmei was the first person to follow her. When she first met her, she was in the town behind the Xishan Hunting Ground.
At that time, A Yan did not hide his experience.
After traveling around for half a year, Li Hongmei has already guessed A Yan's background.
Three months ago, the Regent purged several important ministers from the faction of Duke Gao, and since then the confrontation between the two factions was completely broken.
The Regent resumed his previous arbitrary and crazy style of criticism, and the first thing he did was to send people to look for Ayan's whereabouts.
It was from that day on that A Yan stopped following the girls on escort missions and instead stayed in the mountain city to command the base camp.
At this time, when she proposed to go to Beijing in person to find the Beixue team, Li Hongmei was the first to disagree.
Li Hongmei held the carrier pigeon and said, "Maybe that person has discovered your identity and detained Beixue and the others. If you go to the capital in person, wouldn't you be walking into a trap? No, absolutely not!"
A Yan said: "If that's the case, then I should go to the capital!"
Li Hongmei stamped her feet and said, "No, it's impossible! The Regent is a lunatic. It's too risky for you to go back! I will lead the team and I promise to rescue Beixue and the others!"
Ah Yan tapped her forehead and said, "Little girl, we all know that I have to show up. Otherwise, Rong Chi will not let anyone go. No matter how many people you send, it will still be a waste of lives! Besides, I am not going to the capital just to save people, I want to solve this big problem once and for all!"
When she escaped from the Xishan hunting ground, she saved Rong Chi's life.
Firstly, she was a newcomer at that time. Even if she had some tricks, she was no match for Rong Chi. To kill him, she had to hit him with one strike. She was not so sure.
Secondly, she was isolated and helpless, so even if she really killed Rong Chi, she would not be able to deal with the aftermath. Rong Chi's death would definitely have a significant impact on the court and the world!
Taking both into consideration, her final choice was to conserve her energy and wait for the opportunity.
Now, it's finally time!
