Chapter 347 The Test of the Shelly Family
Zhao Hai and the others have become accustomed to it these days. If no one comes to attack at night, they will feel something is wrong, so when they hear the sound of hoofbeats, several people stand up After getting up, Zhao Hai also turned on the monitor projection of the space.
After a while, a group of cavalry appeared on the monitor. The number of this group of cavalry was about 500. However, these 500 cavalry were not heavy armored cavalry, but carried bows and arrows on their backs. A light cavalryman wearing leather armor and a knight's lance, a two-handed sword.
There are several human heads hanging on the saddles of this cavalry team, which makes Zhao Hai and others confused. Judging from the bloody appearance of the heads, they must have been killed not long ago. Time, what the hell is going on?
After a while, the cavalry team arrived at the end of Zhao Hai's camp. However, this team of cavalry did not attack Zhao Hai and the others. Instead, they stopped, and then they all jumped off their horses.
The cavalry dismounting is a kind gesture, because everyone knows that the cavalry's main combat power is on the horse. If they dismount, it means that they are not here to attack you.
Zhao Hai looked at the cavalry in confusion, not knowing what this group of people meant. At this time, a cavalry took a few steps forward and saluted Zhao Hai: "In front of you is Mr. Wells. ?”
Zhao Hai nodded and said: “I am exactly the same, I wonder who you are?”
The cavalryman immediately said: “This is the Xie Li family, the captain of the light cavalry, the Feng family. I'm here to protect my husband's safety. "Sir, I have been frightened these days. It's just that my husband suddenly changed the road, which made some people in the family not react in a hurry. Please forgive me, sir."
Zhao Hai was stunned. He really didn't expect that he would come. He is a member of the Xie Li family, and he is still protecting him. He said quickly: "Don't dare, it turns out to be a friend of Xie Li's family. Please come and sit in the camp. Wan Ying, Shunyi, prepare mutton for these brothers." Lamb soup.”
Xu Wanying and Shun agreed, and immediately took out a few large pots from the car to prepare food for Wei Li and the others. When Wei Li saw that Zhao Hai had let them enter the camp, they also breathed a sigh of relief and immediately called to his men to let them go. His men first built a few tents outside the camp, and then collected the heads on the saddles. Zhao Hai knew without asking that these heads must have wanted to attack him, but Wei Li and the others killed them.
Zhao Hai invited Wei Li to sit next to the bonfire, and then said to Wei Li: "Brother Wei Li, you are saying that you followed the orders of the Shelly family to protect me? Why is this? It seems that I just followed The Xie Li family has some milk wine trade, so the friendship is not that deep, right?”
Zhao Hai also knows that you can’t say polite words to these soldiers. It’s best to be direct, otherwise they will turn back. Will like it more.
Sure enough, Weili immediately said: "Sir, you are too polite. Although you only have some milk wine transactions with our family, you have helped us a lot in recent times. First, you worked for Baizhan Fortress. Our family suffered, and then we were constantly hunted by Archduke Ryan. All of this was because of our family. I couldn't bear it, so I wanted to send someone out to protect Mr., but our family has been suppressed by Archduke Lane recently and has been too low-key, so we only found Mr. Zhao today."
After hearing what Wei Li said, Zhao Hai. He knew that this time he was really on the line with the Shelly family. The Shelly family had sent people to protect him. This was definitely a good start.
Zhao Hai quickly smiled and said: "It's nothing. We are partners. I was just accommodating them, and those people used me as an excuse. Naturally, I can't ignore it. This has nothing to do with whether I can help your family or not." Relationship, this is related to my reputation."
Weili laughed and said: "Sir said so, but. It's us but we have to accept this. Anyway, this incident happened because of us, so the family sent us out to protect my husband's safety. The family also asked me to bring a message to my husband, this incident The matter will be over soon."
Zhao Hai was stunned, looked at Wei Li and said: "Why. ? Are you ready to fight back?"
The power was not hidden from Zhao Hai, but he said solemnly: "No one can suppress the Xie Li family like this without paying the price, but the Xie Li family is a business family. , generally we will not go head-to-head with such a big noble. Our family values being a harmonious person who makes money, but this Ryan went too far once, and our Shelly family will not bear this tone."
Zhao Hai nodded, the Shelly family is one of the largest business families on the mainland. , although they will not be as domineering as the Majidel family, they will not be polite to those who offend them.
Wei Li looked at Zhao Hai and said: "As a member of the family, I admire you very much. Archduke Ryan has been causing trouble for you these days, but he has managed to deal with it on his own. This really makes us very happy." "I admire you."
Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said: " If I didn't have such ability, I wouldn't dare to cooperate with the Xie Li family. If I didn't have such ability, I wouldn't dare to wade into this muddy water."
Weili felt Zhao Hai's confidence and He Hua. He was so proud that he couldn't help but feel even more happy. He laughed and said, "Mr. Ran is a cheerful person, hahaha, I just like to make friends with people like you."
Zhao Hai laughed slightly and said: "I also like to make friends with people like you, simple and direct. Dealing with those nobles is too taxing, hahahaha."
At this time, Xu Wanying and the others also prepared mutton soup. These muttons are war rations made from Tieshan Fort. They only need to be boiled in hot water for a while and then they can be eaten. Although the taste is not as good as fresh mutton. Okay, but in a winter like this, it’s a rare delicacy.
After eating, Weili and the others returned to their tents to rest, but he still left fifty cavalry to keep watch. Their purpose of coming out this time was to protect Zhao Hai, and they could not let Zhao Hai's men keep watch.
With Wei Li's men keeping watch, Zhao Hai and the others could naturally have a peaceful sleep. Early the next morning, after breakfast, Zhao Hai rushed to Lujiang City under the protection of Wei Li and the others. go.
Zhao Hai also knew that in fact, Weili and the others should have known their whereabouts for a long time, and could have caught up with them long ago. It did not take so many days at all. The reason why they showed up with so many geniuses may be because they wanted to Let's test Zhao Hai's strength and see if Zhao Hai is qualified enough for them to send people out for protection. Everyone in the Xie Li family knows that sending people out to protect Zhao Hai this time means that they will further cooperate with Zhao Hai. For a big family like Xie Li to find people to cooperate with, of course they also need to find some capable people. , otherwise it would really not match their status.
After these days of testing, the Xie Li family also believes that Zhao Hai has the strength to cooperate with them, so his power appears here.
Zhao Hai did not sit in the car today, but stood on the platform of the car. Wei Li was right next to his carriage. Zhao Hai turned around and glanced at Ryan's carriage, then turned to Wei Li and said, "We'll get to Lu later." Jiangcheng, I plan to rest there for a few days and resolve the matter of Princess Ryan. Now Princess Ryan is also involved in this matter. All her guards are dead and she cannot go to Carson. I am going to send someone to contact Grand Duke Iwan and ask Grand Duke Iwan to send someone to pick her up. But when I get a reply from Grand Duke Iwan, I will leave Lujiang City and go to Tianshui City. By then, Princess Ryan We will trouble you for his safety.”
Weili smiled and said: “As I said before, as long as he is a guest of our Shelly Hotel, we will take care of his safety. Guaranteed, not to mention that the city lord of Lujiang City is still on good terms with our Xie Li family, Princess Ruien's safety will not be a problem."
Zhao Hai nodded and said: "That's good. So this Lujiang City is the territory of your Xie Li family? Nothing will happen to us when we get there?”
Wei Li said with a smile: “Although it can’t be counted as us. But when we arrive at Lujiang City, it’s like arriving at our home. No one can touch us anymore. Even if the king of the Rosen Empire wants to touch us, we can escape intact.”
Zhao Haidian. He nodded and said: "Okay, I feel relieved with your words. By the way, I want to go to Tianshui City. What's the shortest way from Lujiang City?"
Weili smiled and said: "The closest is by boat. Lujiang City is close to Lujiang, and Lujiang can lead directly to Tianshui City and then go out to sea from Tianshui City. So if you want to go to Tianshui City, it is the easiest and easiest to take the boat."
< br>Zhao Haidian He nodded and said: "Yes, then we can wait until we get to Lujiang and take the boat. I want to go to Tianshui City, so I don't need your protection. By the way, how much do you know about Tianshui City?"
Weili smiled He said: "I know There are not many. As you know, the headquarters of our Shelly family is not in the Rosen Empire, but this time the family has the intention to move the headquarters to the Rosen Empire. Although the people in the Rosen Empire are not very likable, but One thing they are right about is that the Rosen Empire is in the center of the continent. Not only is the land route extending in all directions, but the waterways are also very smooth, which is very suitable for doing business. Therefore, the family wants to move the headquarters to the Rosen Empire, and Tianshui City is , has always been the family leader One port to focus on is a natural port that can accommodate large cargo ships. From there, you can go directly to the Bibo Dynasty in the south, and to the Orc Grassland in the north. It can be said to be the maritime transportation hub of the Rosen Empire. However, it has always been under the rule of the Kalchi family. The Kalchi family is one of the old nobles of the Rosen Empire. It is very powerful, more powerful than Grand Duke Lane. Tianshui City is the money bag of the Kalchi family. No one can get in, so our power there is very small, and the same goes for other powers. Even the Church of Light, which is blooming all over the mainland, cannot take advantage of it. "
Zhao Hai nodded. Nodding and saying nothing, of course he couldn't tell Weili that the Kalchi family was the initiator of the Black Magician Alliance. It would be absolutely crazy for such a family to allow the Church of Light to establish its power on its own territory.
Weili turned to look at Zhao Hai and said: "What? Sir, you want to do business with the Kalqi family? The Kalqi family has always been very low-key. Few people on the mainland know how much property their family has and want to do business with them. I’m afraid it’s not easy to do business.”
Zhao Hai smiled and said: "That's what I said. As you know, I have business on the grassland, and Tianshui City can directly take a boat to the grassland, and the tax is not high, so I want to do it in Tianshui City." Business, and I have heard before that Tianshui City is well managed by the Kalchi family. When I get there, Grand Duke Lane will not dare to touch me, right?"
Weili nodded and said: " I really don’t dare. In Tianshui City, everything is You have to listen to the Kalchi family. As long as you settle down in Tianshui City, even if the king of the Rosen Empire wants to arrest you, he has to discuss it with the Kalchi family first. It is precisely because of this that merchants gather in Tianshui City. Just asking for the protection of the Kalqi family.”
Zhao Hai really didn’t expect that the Kalqi family would be so domineering in Tianshui City, but this is better, Zhao Hai likes to be so domineering, so no one dares. Move him.
The speed of the convoy was not fast, but when people on the road saw their posture, they all avoided them. Power also hung up the flag of the Shelly family. If anyone dared to attack the convoy at this time, , that is to start a full-scale war with the Shelly family. I believe that few families on the mainland have such courage. If the Shelly family exerts its full strength, even the king of the Rosen Empire may have to temporarily surrender.
Only someone as ignorant as Archduke Ryan would provoke a behemoth like the Shelly family. Although when people on the mainland mention merchant families, the first thing they think of is the Majidel family, because the Majidel family The family was so overbearing that people on the mainland were deeply impressed.
But everyone who knows the inside story understands that the Shelly family is also an existence that must not be messed with. Their family owns Shelly Hotels all over the continent, which in itself shows their strength.
The hotel industry is a very profitable industry, but for so many years, the Shelly family has maintained its position as the leader in the hotel industry. Isn’t this enough to illustrate their strength?
There are even rumors on the mainland that when the Majidel family was at its most prosperous, they also wanted to get involved in the hotel industry and had several conflicts with the Shelly family, but in the end the Majidel family also The status of the Shelly family has not been shaken, which is enough to illustrate the strength of the Shelly family.
Now Zhao Hai is like a little spider, weaving his own web bit by bit. When his web is completed, he will have the strength to revitalize the Buda family. .
Obviously the Shelly family is an indispensable part of this network. With such a strong collaborator, his network will be stronger and will not be broken by the wind.
They kept going all the way, and by noon, they could already see Lujiang City from a distance. However, they had to run away from Wangshan Mountain. Although they could see the blurry shadow of Lujiang City now, if they really wanted to go there, Lujiang City is still about two hours away.
Zhao Hai and others simply ate something in the car without stopping, but Wei Li and the others saw that they often went out. They also carried dry food in the car, and they all took a simple bite. , and did not stop.
