Chapter 538: Yun Gu Returns to the Iron Hand Group
Chapter 538: Yun Gu Returns to the Iron Hand Group
Li Cunxi had no idea about the Iron Hand Group's conspiracy.
But he would soon find out.
The two carriages headed east from Ruzhou towards Yangzhou.
It was another sunny day. The trackers of the Yangzhou Canal Transport Office received the long-awaited canal protection pay. They were all delighted and no longer mentioned what had happened before.
In the afternoon, the trackers received orders from the government to go to the Han Canal area and fish out the salt that had sunk to the bottom of the water.
On a high place, Long Feng Hu Yun stood side by side, looking down at the trackers dragging bags of salt out of the water, their smiles never diminished.
"I think in two or three days, these people will no longer mention what happened before."
"These fools are like this. As long as they have a little money to live on and have food to eat, they will even temporarily forget their previous suffering."
Hu Yun was very happy, thinking that the issue of the trackers and the official salt had finally been resolved.
That day, Chen Yiqu proposed three strategies, the best, the middle and the worst. Everyone was amazed. Finally, Yuan Qi made the decision to implement the best strategy, the middle strategy was a backup, and the worst strategy would not be used until the critical moment.
Of course, when the critical moment comes, the worst strategy will probably not have the chance to be used.
"We are moving in a good direction, but..."
Long Feng frowned.
"I don't know what's going on with Bao Chong and Yun Gu. The owner of Crouching Tiger Manor is not a good person. Although Yun Gu has joined us, he has other ideas."
"The most important thing is that even though we have shown our strong side, he still looks down on us."
"Why do they think that since our Iron Hand Group lost to Li Cunxi, we will also lose to these idiots?"
Hu Yun also frowned.
Ge Tianba from the Iron Hand Group is not a good guy.
The fundamental reason why that guy surrendered to the Iron Hand Group was because the overall strength of the Iron Hand Group was much stronger than that of Crouching Tiger Village.
Last time, Yuan Qi was in seclusion and Long Feng was in charge of the Iron Hand Group. But Ge Tianba pretended to obey them but actually disobeyed them and didn't take them seriously at all.
If it weren't for Yun Gu's sake, Hu Yun would have taken his brothers to massacre Wohu Village and replace it with a puppet to end it all.
"Big Brother, what should we do?"
"That Ge Tianba is looking up at the sky with his butt sticking out - he is blind and really thinks he is Li Cunxi."
"What should we do if he doesn't even give face to his daughter?"
Long Feng shook his head slightly, with no idea what to do.
He does have a way to achieve the best of both worlds, which is to get rid of Crouching Tiger Village.
As long as Wohu Manor collapses, there will be nowhere to resell the official salt, and the puppet found in a hurry may not be the same as Ge Tianba.
By then, as soon as the new puppet reveals its true identity, Li Cunxi will be able to trace it back to Yuan Qi and make sure that Yuan Qi, the Prince of Ying, is dead.
At the same time, getting rid of Wohu Village could also please Yuan Qi. After Yuan Qi returned, he heard that Wohu Village had repeatedly disregarded Long Feng's decision, so he already had the idea of getting rid of Wohu Village.
It was only because of Yun Gu, a first-class master, that this matter was temporarily put on hold.
If Long Feng personally asked Yuan Qi to destroy Wohu Village, Yuan Qi would probably not refuse this good proposal.
"Big Brother, are you thinking of a countermeasure?"
Seeing that Long Feng remained silent for a long time, Hu Yun moved closer and asked.
Long Feng pushed Hu Yun aside and said calmly:
"Yes, I already have a solution, but it needs the Sect Master's approval before it can be implemented."
Hu Yun chuckled and came closer:
"We've been brothers for several years. There's nothing wrong with you telling me about this, right?"
Long Feng was getting a little impatient with Hu Yun's entanglement, so he just laughed strangely and asked:
"You are sure you want to listen and not give away my plans, right?"
Hu Yun patted his chest and said nothing, but he had already made his meaning clear.
He, Hu Yun, is a man of great righteousness!
I will never betray my brothers!
"I plan to destroy Crouching Tiger Manor before Li Cunxi arrives. Otherwise, given Crouching Tiger Manor's style of doing things, they will expose our affairs sooner or later because of their arrogance and ignorance."
"Hiss... is it so exaggerated?"
"What do you think?"
"I think it's feasible. After all, they are indeed such people. Ge Tianba and his sworn brothers are not good people."
"Don't tell Yun Gu that I should ask the Sect Master about this matter first."
……
Crouching Tiger Village!
Yun Gu and the limping Bao rushed into the manor, looking at the servants of Wohu Manor.
Today's servants are different from the usual ones. These servants no longer have any respect for the members of the Iron Hand Group.
The look in his eyes seemed more like contempt.
Bao Chong thought that these servants were looking down on him as a cripple, so he clenched his fists and wanted to kill all of them.
"Third senior brother."
Yun Gu turned her head and called softly.
Bao Chong clenched his fists, but finally forced himself to suppress the urge to attack.
He walked forward side by side with Yun Gu with his head down, and soon they saw the main hall of Wohu Manor.
The leaders of Wohu Manor who were sitting inside did not even look at the two people from the Iron Hand Group. They looked arrogant, as if they looked down on them.
Ge Tianba, who was sitting in the main seat, stroked his beard lightly, with a look of pride in his eyes.
The Iron Hand Group is no longer what it used to be. They can't even defeat Li Cunxi alone. Who else can the Iron Hand Group kill?
There are many masters in Ge Tianba's Wohu Manor. If Bao Chong dares to make trouble in Wohu Manor, his daughter Yun Gu doesn't need to do anything, these servants can beat Bao Chong to death.
If Yuan Qi dared to disrespect them and wanted to cause trouble for them using the excuse that Bao Chong was beaten to death, Ge Tianba would not mind drowning Yuan Qi in a cesspool and letting him eat shit until he was full.
Thinking of this, Ge Tianba became even more arrogant.
"Yayun, why are you back? Is there something you need help from your father?"
Ge Tianba held his head high and chest out, almost looking down at his eldest daughter, Yun Gu.
"Father, what are you doing..."
Yun Gu was stunned. She didn't know what was wrong with her father. He was no longer respectful as before and instead looked down on them.
"Nothing, Yayun, tell me, is there anything you need your father's help with?"
"Father, why is your tone getting weirder and weirder?" Yun Gu narrowed her eyes, not understanding what was going on.
"Yayun, isn't it normal for a father to speak to his daughter like this?"
"Father……"
No matter how slow-witted Yun Gu was, she now understood what her father meant.
Isn't this just looking down on the Iron Hand Group?
In order to become a puppet of the Iron Hand Group, Ge Tianba had to kneel down and lick Yuan Qi for several days, and also got Yun Gu to join the Iron Hand Group, only then did he succeed.
Why are you so ungrateful now?
