C441 Again

Very quickly, night came. Everyone lit a bonfire, roasted a few lambs, and drank the strong alcohol that Zhao Yiming took out. It was a happy scene.

Ba Hai chuckled and gulped down his old wine, "Your Stellar Empire people are so clever that they were able to brew such a good wine. How could they be like us, who only know how to make some swill from bugs?"

Papa Ba also said at the side, "Ba Hai is right. In the past, if we wanted to obtain these things, we would have to pay a huge price.

"Ever since Old Master Taishang and the empire had reconciled, there have been many people who came to do business. Most of them were very fair. If we take out the same thing, we can exchange it for even more items."

Ba Hai drank another cup of wine and said, "But there are some people who are not satisfied. That bastard Ativan, has gathered many people to speak ill of Old Master Tu Si.

"To think that that fellow still claimed to be the wisest back to the borders. I said that he was a bastard, inciting us to make a ruckus with someone else and even thinking of snatching away the items of the empire's merchants. I think that he is just jealous."

This narrator didn't have any intention, but the listener did. These words were undoubtedly a very important piece of information to Zhao Yiming and the others when they heard it. It seems that this trip to the Tu Si City wouldn't be as easy as they had imagined.

Sun Yungang smiled merrily and said to Lai Yuxin: "I wonder what situation warrior Ba Hai was talking about and who that Ativan is. It sounds like he has quite a bit of prestige."

Lai Yuxin laughed and said: "There is one thing that I do know, that Ativan is known as the wisest person back home, and is very close to some middle class people, he is always playing with his own cleverness, raising his reputation.

Recently, he did not know which tendons were in the wrong. A group of people who are in charge of the alliance had proposed to return to the borders and separate out from the Stellar Empire. They even said that they should tax the merchants heavily and confiscate their goods if they don't hand them over. "

Zhao Yiming frowned: "Is there something wrong with this person's mind? Right now, returning to the territory was only a matter of Stellar Empire in name, so what difference was there between him becoming independent and fighting for that title?

"Once you guys have returned to the territory and become independent, then no matter which aspect you consider it from, the Empire will need to use the war to solve the problem in the future!"

Lai Yuxin nodded his head and said: "Young Master Zhao is indeed a famous person, it is exactly as my master had said, and it was precisely because my master appeared that this matter was temporarily put down."

Zhao Yiming continued to speak, "As for merchants who deduct taxes, confiscating their goods if they don't pay, this is clearly killing the chicken to reap the egg. It cannot be denied that the trade between the Empire's merchants and those who return to the borders did indeed benefit a lot.

But once the benefits are less than the risks. "Then the merchants will leave. At that time, although our losses will be great, I think your losses will be even more severe."

Lai Yuxin nodded his head again, "Young Master Zhao is right. After more than ten years of development, in many aspects, we are very reliant on the Empire's supplies.

However, these people were all short-sighted people. By doing so, they could quickly accumulate wealth. Thus, many people were in complete agreement with his opinion.

"Although my master has an extremely high prestige, he can't block other people's path to wealth. Currently, he is only relying on my eldest senior brother's influence to barely maintain his position."

Yao Qing interjected, "My eldest senior brother's family is the largest family on the border, so if he says something, it will temporarily play a role."

But Ativan is jumping up and down so much right now, even within my big senior brother's family, there are many voices opposing him, so if we do not settle this quickly, I am afraid we cannot suppress him. "

Zhao Yiming took a deep breath. He never thought that this matter would be so complicated, looks like he had to shed a few more hairs this time, why does he always have to deal with this kind of thing.

When he turned around, he saw Sun Yungang looking at him with a face full of desire. For this guy, it was easy to kill him, but to deal with this kind of thing, it was simply a headache.

Zhao Yiming nodded, with a look of "you can rest easy", he then gave him a comforting look, and the latter revealed a smile.

He hesitated for a moment. This was the kind of person who knew his enemy well enough to be able to win a hundred battles. It seemed he needed to understand more about returning to the border as he had no idea what was going on.

He smiled and said, "After all, we are outsiders. I don't know who else has the authority to rule the border, other than BaYi's toast."

Ba Hai laughed, "Besides Old Master Tu Si, Master Hong Zhihui is the one with the most power, all of our normal fighting strength is under the control of Master Hong."

Lai Yuxin had a smile on his face as he said, "Furthermore, the Big Senior that I was talking about just now, Wu Wen Yang, their Wu Family s are also overflowing with power when they return to the border.

Furthermore, my eldest senior brother also married Hong Zhihui's only daughter, Hong Baixue. The two families can be considered to be in a strong alliance, even Master Tu Si had to give him some face.

Alone, they are not strong, but Ativan has been connecting very strongly recently, so they already have the potential to become one, and should not be underestimated. "

Zhao Yiming nodded and said, "Then, what is the attitude of that Hong Zhihui?"

Lai Yuxin hesitated for a moment before saying: "Master Hong has never expressed his opinion, but since my senior brother is his son-in-law, he should be able to represent some of his views."

Yao Qing suddenly retorted, "You can't put it that way. The only nephew of the Master Hong, Hong Hai, has been very close to Ativan recently. Perhaps this is the signal that the Master Hong released."

Zhao Yiming's brows tightly knitted. It seemed like this Hong Zhihui had clearly placed both sides in a bet, and no matter which party obtained victory, he would always be in an invincible position.

He pondered for a moment, then said, "It seems like all of these roots of power are with this Ativan. Only by exchanging blows with him, will we know how powerful he is."

Sun Yungang smiled slightly and said: "Young Master Zhao doesn't need to worry too much. The current you is different from the past, I believe that your Government House has already imitated your war weapon.

Li Wu also laughed and said: "I feel that Second Prince is right, why don't we head back home now, we can test out the might of the imitation weapons."

On the contrary, they were paying special attention to the situation on the entire continent, and they also had detailed information regarding the Feng City defense battle.

He naturally knew the power of the Mechanism Apparatus, and was secretly surprised. However, there was a smile on his face as he said: "Second Prince is smiling, my master and Old Master Tu Si still hope to be harmonious with the Empire for a long time."

Everyone naturally changed the topic, but Lai Yuxin's eyeballs were rolling around and he had a lot of thoughts in his mind.
