Pei family.
Pei Yanshu was sitting in the hall, drinking tea leisurely. After handing over the family affairs to Pei Li, he had a lot of free time every day.
Of course, although Pei Li became the head of the family, he still gave instructions behind the scenes to ensure that Pei Li would not make mistakes.
Pei Yanshu spit out the tea leaves he had drunk, put down the teacup, and prepared to go outside for a walk. At this moment, the housekeeper ran in with a carrier pigeon.
"Old Master, a letter from the Young Master."
"Oh, give it to me now."
Pei Yanshu took the letter and unfolded it. There were not many words on it, but it mainly said that the goods had arrived in Yangzhou and were very popular. Many people were rushing to buy them, and the demand was completely outstripping the supply.
"Okay! Okay!"
Pei Yanshu put the letter down, and the wrinkles on his face smiled so much that they could kill mosquitoes. "I still underestimated the value of this batch of goods. At this price, I'm afraid I can make more than I thought."
Just then, Pei Li rushed in.
"Dad, it's not good."
"Why are you so flustered? I've told you so many times that you are the head of the family and you should stay calm. What happened?"
Pei Yanshu spoke slowly. After reading the letter from Pei Feng, he was in a good mood. But when he saw Pei Li like this, he felt that his son was still too impetuous.
"Dad, I received news from Qingyang County that Yiyun Store has reopened and has more goods than before."
"What?"
Pei Yanshu was stunned for a moment. "How is this possible? Didn't you always send people to keep an eye on Yiyun Village? How could there be goods being sent there and you didn't know about it?"
Pei Li said: "Yes, there are people watching it all the time, but no goods have been delivered."
Pei Yanshu's face was gloomy. "If the people you arranged were not lazy, then they have stocks in Qingyang County."
"Dad, what should we do now? Should we let someone rob us?"
"Robbery, what the hell? Where is Qingyang County? Is that a place you can commit a crime? And Liu Yiyi must have been prepared, so it's hard to do it."
Pei Yanshu spoke in a deep voice, his heart bleeding. Those were all the goods of his Pei family, and they were handed over to Liu Yiyi to be sold at a low price by that little beast Pei Yun.
Did you know that these goods are very valuable in Jiangnan?
"If you send more people to keep an eye on the mountain stronghold, they will definitely transport goods to Qingyang County. It is much easier to rob in the wild than in the county town."
Pei Li nodded, and that was the only thing he could do.
"This is a letter from Feng'er, take a look."
Pei Yanshu handed the letter over. After Pei Li read it, his face lit up with joy. It was a good thing that the goods were popular in Jiangnan. As long as there was a follow-up supply of goods, they would have a steady stream of income.
"Then I'll send more people to keep an eye on the village."
Pei Li said this and was about to go out.
"Wait." Pei Yanshu said.
"We are too slow in robbing their caravans. We may succeed once or twice, but there will always be times when we fail. It is better to end it once and for all."
"Dad, what do you mean?"
There was a hint of ruthlessness in Pei Yanshu's eyes. One cannot stand firm without being ruthless. He had understood this truth since he was a child. He asked Pei Li to come closer to his ear and whispered a few words.
Pei Li showed a look of shock on his face. "Dad, this is not right. We and the Liu family..."
"Those who achieve great things don't care about small details. If you want Pei Yun to spit out all the goods from the cottage, this is the only way."
"What if Pei Yun disagrees?"
"Then let's spread the rumor that he is heartless and ungrateful, and that he didn't help someone in need. In addition, he was unfaithful and unfilial before. Even if your letter doesn't reach the prince, he will be able to hear the rumors, and then Pei Yun's reputation will be ruined."
Pei Li gritted his teeth and said, "Then I will go find the cold-blooded Thirteen Eagles now."
That night, Liu Jingzhi disappeared, and a bloody letter was left at the Liu family.
When Liu Jingzhi's wife Chu Nianci saw the letter the next day, she almost fainted. Last night, Liu Jingzhi slept with his concubine and wanted to have a baby with her.
Ever since he thought Liu Xiao was dead, Liu Jingzhi has been particularly active in this regard. He wants to have another son, otherwise his Liu family's business will have no one to inherit, which would mean the family will be cut off.
But they didn't expect such a disaster to happen. The concubine was knocked unconscious and Liu Jingzhi was abducted. The letter warned the Liu family not to report to the police, otherwise Liu Jingzhi's life would be in danger.
Let the Liu family find Pei Yun and let Pei Yun go to the designated location.
"Quick, prepare the car to go to Qingyang County."
Chu Nianci calmed down. This was aimed at Pei Yun. Liu Jingzhi was just a bait. As long as Pei Yun went, Liu Jingzhi should be fine.
However, Chu Nianci and Pei Yun were not familiar with each other, so she could only go to Qingyang County to find her daughter.
…
Qingyang County.
Liu Yiyi was slightly startled when she saw Chu Nianci, "Mom, why are you here?"
"Yiyi, you must save your father."
"What happened to my dad?"
Chu Nianci took out the letter, and Liu Yiyi's face changed drastically after reading it. His father was from a noble family, but he was kidnapped.
"Yiyi, their target is Pei Yun. Go find Pei Yun and ask him to save your father."
"Mom, I..."
Liu Yiyi was not very willing. She had just had a sweet time with Pei Yun and her heart was all on Pei Yun. The other party specifically asked for Pei Yun, which was obviously a premeditated plan. What if Pei Yun was in danger if he went there?
On one side is my father, and on the other side is the person I like. It’s very difficult.
"Yiyi, you don't want to save your father, do you?"
"Mom, that's not what I meant. Even if I go, Brother Pei may not agree."
Chu Nianci was anxious. "How would you know if you don't go? Don't think I can't see your little tricks. You have been staying in the village and not coming back. Now you are helping Pei Yun with business. Don't you just want to stay with Pei Yun?"
