The next day, Zhao Junsheng was not in a hurry to go to the city, but practiced martial arts, horseback riding and archery in the camp outside the city. This was the first time he devoted a whole day to this aspect.

At dusk, Pei Jin came to meet with several carriages.

Zhao Junsheng didn't leave the camp all day long, so he didn't know much about what happened in the city, but he guessed that Wu Ce's death must have caused shock in the government and speculation among the people.

Chapter 431 Miss Wan's Whereabouts

Riding a horse on the streets of Shanwu County, Zhao Junsheng found that the place is still very lively and bustling. The streets are full of people, traffic, and hawking. Everything seems to be unaffected by Wu Ce's death.

When he came to the mansion of Dabo Xiaoyi, the Governor of Grain and Grass, Zhao Junsheng asked Pei Jin to hand in a letter of worship.

Dabo Xiaoyi came out to greet him, cupped his hands and smiled, "Brother Zhao's visit makes the humble house flourish!"

Zhao Junsheng cupped his hands in return: "Brother Dabo's words are insincere!"

"Hahaha..." The two laughed at the same time.

After laughing, Dabo Xiaoyi invited Zhao Junsheng to enter the mansion, and came to the front hall to divide the guests and hosts.

The two chatted all over the world, Dabo Xiaoyi never asked what Zhao Junsheng was doing this time, Zhao Lusheng had to take the initiative to tell.

He took a sip of tea and said, "Brother Dabo won't ask me why I came here this time?"

Dabo Xiaoyi: "Brother Zhao will naturally say it when he wants to talk, and if Brother Zhao doesn't want to say it, even if I ask, it's useless!"

Zhao Junsheng shook his head: "Brother Dabo, you are not very good at chatting, you should know that chatting starts with nonsense!"

Dabo Xiaoyi laughed loudly: "Brother Zhao's words are incisive! Hahaha..."

Zhao Junsheng didn't waste any time, and went straight to the point, he said seriously: "To be honest, I came here this time to prepare for the establishment of two other caravans under the order of my military master. The last time was just to test the waters. !"

Dabo Xiaoyi was stunned: "So Brother Zhao has two more customs clearance certificates?"

Zhao Junsheng nodded: "Exactly!"

Dabo Xiaoyi has always been worried about not being able to buy the customs clearance certificate last time, but this time he did not show any surprise or desire.

He looked at Zhao Junsheng for a while, and after confirming that Zhao Junsheng was not guilty, he asked, "Is what Brother Zhao said true?"

"real!"

Dabo Xiaoyi was silent for a moment before asking: "Brother Zhao, do you know that Magistrate Wu is dead?"

Zhao Junsheng pretended to be surprised: "Magistrate Wu... is dead? Brother Dabo, are you kidding me?"

Dabo Xiaoyi: "It's true! The night before yesterday, an assassin broke into the county office, and many people died, including Wu County Magistrate, but... Wu Ce didn't seem to be killed, because there was no scar on his body Judging from Wu Ce's expression when he died, it seems that he was scared to death!"

Zhao Junsheng pretended to be thoughtful: "A county magistrate, how can ordinary people kill him? If he disagrees with his colleagues, political opponents will definitely not resort to assassination methods. If they are not at that level, even killing people will not solve the problem. ah!"

Dabo Xiaoyi sighed: "Who says it's not!"

Zhao Junsheng suddenly asked: "Isn't the assassin doing it for the customs clearance document? No way, we all know that the customs clearance document is in Wu Ce's hands. If anyone uses it, wouldn't it be tantamount to admitting to the world that it was homicide?" Wu Ce?"

Dabo Xiaoyi nodded: "This is exactly what we are wondering about!"

"Have you found out who did it?"

"Not yet!"

Zhao Junsheng changed the subject: "I plan to invite wealthy businessmen and patriarchs from the surrounding counties to come to the banquet tomorrow at the Fortune Restaurant like last time. The two tickets will be auctioned separately, and the highest bidder will win!"

Dabo Xiaoyi hurriedly said: "Brother Zhao, there are two cards this time, with our friendship, you should leave one for brother no matter what!"

Zhao Junsheng pretended to be quite embarrassed: "Brother Dabo, there are only two in total, this is not easy!"

Dabo Xiaoyi smiled and said: "Brother Zhao, don't be sloppy with me. Since you have been ordered to handle this matter, you must be deeply trusted. Put a big seal on a piece of white paper and write a few words. Don't you want to As much as you want?"

"Brother Dabo, see what you say! This thing is worthless if there are too many, you should know better than me! If the quantity is too large, it will overflow, and then there will be accidents. Besides, you think our army just wants to sell some money? A customs clearance document is a caravan, and any supplies that cannot be supplied by the military, our army will hand them over to these caravans for purchase."

Having said that, Zhao Junsheng leaned closer and said in a low voice: "It is impossible for our army to keep fighting all the time.

Are you staying in Jinling?Sooner or later, they will go to Huaishuo Town to garrison. When the army is gone, the family members will also follow the army, and the court will move a large number of people. Huaishuo Town is in the north of the mountain. A convoy of supplies and caravans are needed to transport them there. In several counties around Huaishuo Town, only caravans with customs clearance documents issued by our army can go there!What a huge benefit is this? "

Dabo Xiaoyi also knew that he would not be able to serve as the governor of the Jinling Camp all the time, and when the court settled Hu Xia, he would definitely turn around and deal with Rouran. things.

At that time, the troops of Huaishuo Town and Woye Town will go to the garrison. This time will definitely not be too far away, at most one or two years.

What Zhao Junsheng said is reliable, with that customs clearance certificate, there will be a lot of money.

Dabo Xiaoyi immediately had a calculation in his heart, and he said to Zhao Junsheng: "Brother Zhao, if you give me one, I will pay two thousand gold. In addition, as long as you like the supplies in my military warehouse, You can take it away, I will never say anything, how about it?"

Dabo Xiaoyi was willing to pay such a price, Zhao Junsheng was very surprised, he weighed it and asked: "Is this true?"

"a man of his words!"

"That's the deal! When the two thousand gold is sent to the camp outside the city, the customs clearance document will be handed over to you!"

After leaving Dabo Xiaoyi's place, Zhao Junsheng immediately sent people to send invitations to the wealthy businessmen and wealthy family heads in the surrounding counties.

"There are still two days, we don't need to worry, but things need to be done well, you should pay more attention to this matter!"

After hearing Zhao Junsheng's order, Pei Jin agreed: "Understood, please rest assured, Captain!"

After Pei Jin left, Zhao Junsheng continued to practice martial arts and bow horse riding and shooting diligently.

Most of the day's riding and shooting used up a thousand arrows, and the horse was tired from running.

Zhao Junsheng was about to have dinner when Lu Xuanbo walked in and cupped his fists and said, "Master, I saw Miss Wan's maid Xiaocui at the market!"

Zhao Junsheng got up suddenly: "What? Where is it?"

"At the market!"

"No, I'm asking where she is staying?"

Lu Xuanbo said: "I followed her to a village thirty miles south of the city. She seems to be married. Her husband seems to be the captain of the guard who protects Miss Wan. Several other guards also married wives in that village. !"

Zhao Junsheng was startled by the news for a while before recovering, and immediately asked, "Where is Miss Wan?"

Lu Xuanbo shook his head and said, "I don't know, I haven't seen Miss Wan in the village!"

Zhao Junsheng thought for a while and said, "Miss Wan must be near that village, but you didn't find it!"

"I think so too. Xiaocui and the others must know the whereabouts of Miss Wan. Should the young master go and see?"
