Even though the Spring Festival has not long passed, the people in Shillong still have a high consumption pleasure. What makes the people most happy is the goods shipped by Hu Biao, which are urgently needed by these people, and the prices are also fair.

In the past, horse gang vendors who came to Shillong would find ways to lower the prices of goods for the people. Cashing at low prices and selling at high prices is also a common method for many merchants. But this time, the price given by Hu Biao did really satisfy the people.

Li Dacheng, who temporarily acted as the shopkeeper of the horse team vendor, said somewhat puzzled: "Mr. Hu, if you receive goods at such a high price, there is probably not much profit! If you do this, it will probably ruin the market!"

In previous years, Li Dacheng, who also traveled to various places to purchase mountain goods and other goods, naturally knew what price they could sell these local specialties in the southwest when they were sold outside. The price given by Hu Biao is enough to make other vendors unprofitable and can never receive goods again.

Although the people and mountain people are simple, it does not mean that they are stupid. After suffering a loss, it is almost impossible for those vendors to buy the goods of mountain people at low prices. This also means that the monopoly of the horse gang is broken.

Faced with Li Dacheng's concern and confusion, Hu Biao smiled and said, "Tao Li, the price I gave is actually not high, but there is still a good profit. For those vendors who purchase your goods, they are also second-hand dealers.

I looked at it before and found that the things sent by these people and mountain people were of good quality. I would ask someone to take these collected goods to Longzhou at that time, and then find a ship to ship directly to Shanghai. These local specialties can be sold at high prices in Shanghai.

Since I can make money, why don’t I share some profits to these people and mountain villagers? Only by giving them more benefits can they sell more goods to me. If you can receive goods from other places, I can also receive them at a high price!"

Compared with horse-drawn vendors who sold the collected goods to other vendors, Hu Biao could save the procedure of reselling goods. Hu Biao directly transported them back to Shanghai through his own cargo ship and sold them directly.

Aihua Business and Fuxing Business can both become terminals for selling these mountain goods. The retail price is naturally higher than the acquisition price. Isn’t it better to save middlemen from making the difference and give the saved money to the people and mountain people?

After hearing what Hu Biao said, Li Dacheng was surprised and said, "People in Shanghai also eat such things?"

"Why don't you eat it? There are many mountain delicacies in the southwest, and they are all popular goods in Shanghai. Many times, if you have money, you may not be able to buy them! Now you have higher prices. Those mountain people will get benefits. In the future, they will definitely work harder to find mountain goods. Isn't that better?"

After convinced Li Dacheng, this grand event belonging to the people of Shillong was soon exhausted and the goods were about to be consumed and ended. Many mountain people who came to trade even said with great concern before leaving: "When will you come next time?"

Thinking of the goods sold at a cheap price in the past, these mountain people naturally hate the vendors. Now seeing that Hu Biao gave a purchase price so fair, mountain people naturally hope to sell the goods they dug out and sell more money to vendors.

Faced with the inquiries of these mountain people, Hu Biao quickly asked someone to reply: "Our caravan will not leave. We will open a store in the city in the future and specialize in purchasing mountain goods. The price is similar to today's. As long as there is goods, we will collect it!"

"Will you open a shop in the city?"

"Yes! If you want to buy anything in the future, you can come to our store to buy it. Even in the future, if you can't find work in the mountains, you can also come to the city to take a look. At that time, we will spend money to hire people to work."

Taking advantage of this grand goods trade fair, Hu Biao also promoted the subsequent recruitment of workers. In that case, some mountain people who lack financial resources will be interested and come to the city to find work.

If you don’t want to collect money, Hu Biao can send food and stuff. In short, Hu Biao, who plans to build a large scale in Shillong, is not short of supplies, but more of a manpower. The premise is that the potential threat must be dealt with.

The trade fair that lasted nearly three days ended, and the people of Shillong who had benefited also devoted more enthusiasm to the mountains to dig mountain goods. During this process, Hu Biao asked people to spend money and bought two private houses in the city as shops for buying and selling goods.

Zhou Shuo and others, who watched all this coldly, did not want to make things too big, and even seized the time to contact more people. Even though the bandits invited were not from the same group, they were still lured by them.

Such incidents of bandit attacking the city often occur in some remote small counties in the southwest. Zhou Shuo, who was behind the scenes, was extremely happy and felt that he was the controller of Shillong.

On the other hand, Hu Biao's side had already explored Zhou Shuo and his party's conspiracy through the foreign reconnaissance team. Seeing the bandits gathered one after another outside the city, Hu Biao did not alert the enemy, but carried out corresponding arrangements.

By sending private messages, Hu Biao quickly conveyed corresponding instructions to Qin Tianyou and Zhu Chengzong. There is only one core requirement, that is, to be sure to wipe out this group of upcoming bandits and ensure the safety of the people in the city.

After making the corresponding decision, Hu Biao quickly ordered: "Zhuzi, after dawn, you should take people and take a batch of goods out of the city. There are so many of us who stay in the city, and the other party will definitely not dare to do it easily. We should give them some confidence.

After leaving the city, a team was sent to escort Li Tou and his party back to Longzhou. The assault battalion brought by Lei Company was already on the way to arrive. Judging from the time, they should not be able to arrive soon.

We will try to solve the hidden dangers in Shillong before Lei Lian and the others arrive. All those involved in this incident must be solved cleanly. Don’t be afraid of things. Since these people take the initiative to seek death, we will help them."

"yes!"

Just as Zhou Shuo and others began to take action, the spy responsible for monitoring the horse team, and soon the news came: "The horse team is planning to leave tomorrow morning. Should we do it tonight and keep all these people?"

When asked about his subordinates' inquiry, Zhou Shuo pondered for a while but shook his head and said, "If we offend the horse gang, we can't sell anything in the future. Let them leave. When they leave, there will be only a hundred people named Qin left in the city. Are we still afraid that we can't win?

When we get rid of Qin and his subordinates, we have the final say in Shillong. At that time, are you still afraid of not making money? Don’t lose the big picture because of small things. The most important thing for us now is the goods grown in the mountains, and it is not appropriate to cause trouble!”

With Zhou Shuo's final decision, the other subordinates dare not say anything. In fact, this horse team has a lot of people. If it really fights, I'm afraid the county town will be ruined. At that time, it will be extremely unfavorable to Zhou Shuo and others.

In this atmosphere, Li Dacheng and his party quickly left Shillong with the purchased goods. As for Hu Biao and his guards, they moved into the purchased house and settled down as shopkeepers.

Worried that the horse team would return halfway, Zhou Shuo also sent spies to follow him. When the horse team left Shilong, the spy returned to report the news and informed the horse team that it had already set off and would not return again. This also gave Zhou Shuo great confidence.

Then he sent an order: "Xu Wang, wait until you go outside the city, get two hundred guns, and hand them over to your subordinates when it gets dark, so that they can cooperate with each other. At that time, I will go outside the city to contact other masters and discuss plans for siege.

You are responsible for the matters in the city. If everything goes well, use gunfire as a sign. Remember, be careful and don’t let anyone with the surname Qin discover it. As long as the group of people with the surname Qin is solved, we will have the final say in the future!”

"yes!"

When Zhou Shuo and his confidant quietly left Shilong and came to the hidden valley of the bandits, the reconnaissance team also promptly reported the situation to Hu Biao. After receiving the intelligence sent by the reconnaissance team, Hu Biao immediately ordered: "Order all departments to prepare to close the network!"

As night fell, the officers and soldiers of the former security regiment who had been resting for a few days also seemed a little nervous. Many officers and soldiers were actually reluctant to do so about Xu Wang's plan to eliminate Qin Tianyou and his party. The reason was that they had a very comfortable life in the past three days.

The three-day meal alone made these officers and soldiers feel that it would be better to be a job under Qin Tianyou than to be a job under Xu Wang. Unfortunately, most of them are locals, and they know how powerful Zhou Shuo and Xu Wang are in the local area.

If they do not obey the orders of the two, they will also be retaliated after the matter is completed. Thinking of this, the people from the former security team have to surrender. They obey the orders and are ready to catch Qin Tianyou off guard tonight.

Seeing Qin Tianyou's subordinates, most of them went out to patrol and stand guard on duty. There were not many people left in the military camp. Xu Wang, who had already returned to the city with weapons, began to send people to gather his subordinates who were resting in the camp.

Not long after, the subordinates who were sent from the camp to drink soon appeared in front of Xu Wang with a group of people. What shocked Xu Wang and his confidant was that just when Xu Wang was about to order the distribution of weapons, the team that came out quickly changed.

"Don't move! Whoever dares to move will kill anyone!"

With flashlights and muzzles pointed at Xu Wang and his subordinates, most of the security soldiers who went out of the camp seemed very honest. Facing these flashlights and muzzles, Xu Wang was also shocked and said, "How is this possible?"

"The clown jumping! If it weren't for the purpose of attracting you to the bait, I would have dealt with you. Xu Wang, would he still want to resist?"

"Brothers, fight with him!"

When he heard it was Qin Tianyou's voice, Xu Wang quickly decided to take a life-threatening blow. It turned out to be obvious that at Xu Wang's greeting, his confidant directly raised his gun to resist, but saw cold crossbow arrows piercing the throats and chests of those confidants.

Qin Tianyou, who came to Xu Wang, punched Xu Wang without saying a word. After screaming, Qin Tianyou said with a cold expression: "At this time, do you still want to resist dyingly? Do you really want to die so much?"
