Dark Fairy

Chapter 279
Having said that, Bailang also understood the purpose of Zhou Yu and Hou Wangtong's visit this time.

To put it bluntly, it is to surrender.

Obviously, these businessmen have already felt that in the years of military disasters, it is obviously unrealistic to let the city lord's mansion protect them comprehensively by relying on the benefits of their members' money, so they are ready to find a way out.

But now, Zhou Yu and Hou Wangtong decided their new way out on him, Bailang.

"Bailang has received the kindness from the two old gentlemen. The industrial park is still generally in charge of the City Lord's Mansion, whether it is taxation or the appointment of personnel. The law and order here continues to be in charge of the Yongchuan City Yamen. Dao It is not known where the museum will go now, and I don’t know what help it can give to the two of you.”

Zhou Yu became a little anxious when he heard this. He felt that Bai Lang was trying to evade.Just as he was about to make another effort, Hou Wangtong beside him tugged at the corner of his clothes to signal him not to worry.

Hou Wangtong took over from the sidelines and said, "I understand the meaning of Baizuo Dao. That is to say, the industrial park will not have any changes from before, right?"

Bailang picked up the tea and took a sip, then let out a "huh".

After being affirmed, Hou Wangtong felt confident and continued to say: "On the surface, it will not change, including Bai Zuo Dao continuing to sit in the industrial park, right?"

Bailang gave another "hmm".

Even Zhou Yu next to him started laughing again. He finally understood what Bai Lang meant.

"Understood. On the surface, it will remain unchanged, but the identity of Bai Zuo Dao will change. In the future, it will not be the City Lord's Mansion but General Liu Jianyu of the Zuo Army who will make Bai Zuo Dao move?"

Bailang glanced at the two old men, and then said as if he didn't answer the question: "General Liu is recruiting people, but the sword hall is under the control of the City Lord's Mansion. I don't care what others think, but it's like this here."

This answer immediately confused Zhou Yu and Hou Wang, who didn't know how to talk to each other. They could only subconsciously give a thumbs up to express their inner feelings.

After all, he is from the knife shop!This face is thicker than the corners of ordinary city walls!Zhou Yu and Hou Wang thought so at the same time.And I have a new understanding of Bailang, a vicious figure named "Baitu" in Yongchuan City.

In other words, as long as Bai Lang is still the master swordsman of Dongcheng Sword Hall, he must obey the orders of the city lord's palace and the control of city lord Feng Mingyuan.At the same time, he also admitted that he would be recruited into Liu Jianyu's Left Army and become a member of the army.

It is also the seat knife of the city lord's mansion, and at the same time it is a newly enlisted soldier.You have to take both ends, and you have to take advantage of it!

Zhou Yu and Hou Wangtong glanced at each other, and then Zhou Yu smiled and said, "I've been lucky recently, and I've gathered some food from other places, but the amount is not too much. There are only two boats. I don't know if there is a need for Bai Zuo Dao."

Nothing is as in short supply as food now, and it is precisely because of this that Zhou Yu and Hou Wangtong thought of using this kind of thing as a stepping stone, and it happened that Bailang also needed food when he wanted to be paid.Otherwise, you have the nerve to say that you are here to surrender?
It's just that this time it's different from the last time I got paid.This time it was a free gift, or a gift.Although it was sent clearly, it was not said clearly.Just don't mention the price.

As long as Bailang accepts the things, it means that he has accepted the surrender of the Zhou family and the Hou family, and will continue to safeguard the interests of the two families in the industrial park in the future.

But Bai Lang smiled and didn't say whether to accept or not. Instead, he said something that made Zhou Yu and Hou Wangtong murmur in their hearts.

"Two old gentlemen, this food is a good thing, no matter how much it is, it is not too much. But Bai doesn't take things for nothing, I just hope it can be cheaper."

While talking, Bailang raised his hand to stop Zhou Yu and Hou Wangtong who wanted to explain "free gift", and continued: "Don't worry, you two, I know what the two old gentlemen are thinking. Actually, there is no need. One It is also a big burden for the two of you, and to tell you the truth, what I need is far more than food, and there are other needs.

So instead of begging for it brazenly, it's better for the two old gentlemen to give some connections and less money, so that Bai will be very grateful. "

"What does Bai Zuo Dao mean by this? Our two families really have some connections, and I would like to hear what else Bai Zuo Dao can ask for, maybe he can help." Hou Wangtong asked curiously.

"Medicinal materials and cloth can be used in these two categories. It just depends on how much you two can help."

Hearing that Zhou Yu and Hou Wangtong glanced at each other again, they both saw doubts in each other's eyes.Whether it is medicinal materials or cloth, these are sought-after items, and with the emergence of military disasters, it has become increasingly difficult to buy, especially in large quantities.However, these two things are usually hoarded by big companies or officials, and ordinary people hoard these two things and they will not be used in time like food.

"Bai Zuo Dao, I dare to ask, what do you want the cloth and medicinal materials for? If you want to resell it, the price is actually not going up at all now, the government is very tight, and a bad one can easily be confiscated and end up losing all your money. .It’s better that the food is real, and it can also equal the risk.”

"Hehe, thank you Mr. Zhou for thinking about me. But now Bailang is not alone. A group of brothers as big as the knife shop follow me. It can be said that my wealth and life are tied to me. Now the world is in trouble. Just some food is afraid It is difficult to be stable and worry-free, and the necessary medicinal materials and cloth are always indispensable. The amount can be less. But I still hope that the two of you can help a lot.

Of course, there is still as much food as there is.Bai Mou will never let the two of you suffer. "

Faced with Zhou Yu's provocative words, he didn't know whether Bailang was intentional or unintentional, so he clearly laid out his "brother's property and life" and bluntly said that these things were not for reselling, but for the sake of the brothers behind him. We seek a safe guarantee.

The two old foxes changed their minds sharply at this time, and soon thought of the same possibility.

"Could it be that the meaning of Baizuo Dao is to find a place outside the world for the brothers in the sword hall to avoid disaster?!"

The military disaster is already on the rise, and there are tragic and terrifying endings after losing to Yunyan several times in the history books, but anyone with some resources will subconsciously consider a way to avoid disaster.

Building a place outside the world is the most common one that people often hear.Naturally, Zhou Yu and Hou Wangtong had heard about it, and even their two families secretly had similar arrangements.But it never occurred to Bailang that he seemed to be doing the same thing.This involuntarily made the two of them extremely curious, wanting to hear what Bailang had to say about this place of refuge.

"May Bai Zuo Dao give some pointers?"

"Haha, it's actually not that big of a deal. First of all, keep the place secret, and the place itself needs to be concealed enough, and it also needs to have a certain defense structure to avoid having no room to fight back if something goes wrong and someone comes knocking on your door.

The second is to have the power to protect yourself.The stronger the self-protection force, the less afraid of some disturbances.Even when danger comes to your door, you can fight and retreat.

The last point is to have a certain amount of material reserves and the ability to be self-sufficient.After all, the Yunyan disaster was the longest in history, but it lasted more than six years.In the case of a large number of people, it may not be enough to rely solely on reserves.Moreover, the storage conditions may not keep the materials fresh for several years. "

Every time Bailang said something, Zhou Yu and Hou Wangtong's expressions became more and more ugly.They found that the place of refuge that their two families jointly built could not be measured according to Bailang's requirements.In addition to storing a lot of materials, there is almost no mention of safety and concealment.
