Traveling through time and space and becoming a deposed prince, he just wants to survive!

Chapter 477 North Shore Chamber of Commerce

Gojile's disappearance was like a sudden shadow that quickly enveloped Huxietu's heart, making him realize in an instant that this was most likely a long-planned act of revenge by Nalan Yilan and Yelu Feng.

He sat in a spacious but slightly gloomy room, and the walls around him seemed to exude an oppressive atmosphere in silence.

Huxietu frowned, his eyes filled with suspicion and uneasiness. Various details related to Gozel kept replaying in his mind. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that there was a huge conspiracy behind this matter.

He even pointed his suspicion at the person who set up the trap.

In this environment full of intrigues and calculations, he is well aware that behind every seemingly ordinary event, there may be a complex entanglement of interests.

He knew in his heart that the Black Python Society was a key organization that knew the entire process of the whole incident.

However, there were too many unreasonable things in this matter. When Hu Xietu thought of this, he couldn't help but mutter to himself: How could the Black Python get weapons so easily?

You have to know that Dingzhou is the world of Wang Zhao Xin, a king of a different surname, and his son-in-law has now taken over the Li family's business in Dingzhou. If it is just for the purpose of making money, there is no need to use other people's hands to engage in smuggling.

Is there really some unspeakable secret hidden here?

The more Hu Xietu thought about it, the more he felt that this matter must be brought to light.

When he works in Yi Yu in the future, he will inevitably have to deal with the Black Python Society.

Whether this organization is a friend or an enemy must be determined as soon as possible. Otherwise, if we are not careful, we may end up in an irretrievable situation.

So, in the following days, Huxietu's men were like ants on a hot pan, or busy worker ants, running around and working tirelessly to collect information about the Black Python Society.

Especially for the person behind this mysterious organization, they invested a lot of energy to find out, not missing any clues.

Just as they were frantically trying to gather information, another piece of news spread rapidly among the Yi people like a gust of wind.

After preliminary evaluation by the railway group, it was felt that it would be more appropriate to build the railway from Yiyubei to Jiuyuan County.

At this time, the atmosphere in the Yi Yu North Club was warm and noisy.

Since Gozel was eliminated, this place where people gathered has returned to its former bustle. Every day, people come here to drink and chat, as if the bloodshed and disputes before had never happened.

Hu Yanzhan walked up to the group with a confident look on his face, raised his voice to drown out the surrounding noise, and said, "The route they decided on is very reasonable."

Li Gengbao's face was filled with smiles, his eyes sparkling with excitement. He quickly agreed, "Now that this railway is built, our Di people's goods will have to travel a thousand miles less. That's really great."

He secretly thought that once the railway was opened, transportation costs would be greatly reduced, and the Di people's commercial trade would surely usher in a new prosperity.

However, Lan Xiongying always felt that something was wrong. He felt like there was a stone blocking his heart and was in a very bad mood.

He frowned slightly and said with a hint of dissatisfaction: "Why not extend it to the north? This will also benefit my Lan family."

He was quite depressed, feeling that his family's interests seemed to have been neglected in this railway planning.

"Don't worry, getting here in Liaodong is the most difficult. You can build a station along the railway line, and then build an expressway at the station. That way you can kill two birds with one stone."

A man who didn't get to build the railway said this with a face full of complaints.

This sentence was like a heavy hammer hitting Yuwen Xicheng's heart. Every time the Yuwen family delivered goods, they had to run nearly a thousand miles, and the transportation cost was really expensive. He was deeply touched by this and couldn't help but nod secretly.

"Everyone, stop arguing. This is just the beginning, but definitely not the end. I believe that after the railway is opened in Yanzhou, construction will continue towards your area."

Yelu Feng leaned back in his chair and spoke lazily, then took a sip of wine leisurely.

He knew that everyone had their own interests and arguing would be useless, so it would be better to give everyone a reassurance.

Everyone was discussing this at once when Lan Xiongying suddenly raised his voice and asked a question, "Our North Shore Chamber of Commerce needs a new president. Hu Xietu hasn't been here for a few days. He can't just occupy the position and not work for our benefit!"

Speaking of Huxie Tu, the smiles on some people's faces froze instantly, a hint of hesitation flashed in their eyes, and they fell silent.

After all, the power behind Huxie Tu cannot be underestimated, and offending him is no small matter.

However, Yelu Feng was always fearless. When he saw Lan Xiongying's suggestion, he immediately agreed without hesitation:

"The Lan family is right. If we don't change people, I guess the South Bank won't negotiate with us. If we miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to make this happen in the future."

Everyone understood the interests involved in Yelu Feng's words.

However, everyone is still afraid of offending Huxie Tu. After all, the forces behind Huxie Tu are complex and intertwined, and if one is not careful, it may bring disaster to oneself.

……

After Xiao Ran received Yelu Feng's letter, he frowned slightly and thought about the importance of this matter.

It just so happened that he also had something to discuss with Yelu Qing, so he took his guards and rode at full speed to Linhai.

At this time, the former site of Linhai Prefecture was lush and green, and the sunlight shone through the dense branches and leaves, casting mottled light and shadows.

Yelu Qing was beside Dun Chanyu, and the Grand Marshal Huyan Yang had just sent Huyan Duo out to purchase some supplies such as ammunition.

Xiao Ran's arrival made Yelu Qing feel nervous, thinking that something big had happened in Shizhou.

He called Xiao Ran into the Chanyu's tent to talk without any hesitation.

"Could it be that something happened in Shizhou that is causing you trouble?"

Yelu Qing knew very well that Xiao Ran was young and energetic, and that there was some disagreement between him and Gulizar, so he asked directly in front of Dun Chanyu, with concern and worry in his eyes.

"The capture of Shizhou this time was truly accidental, but there is currently disagreement within the army, so it would be best if the chieftain could take charge."

Xiao Ran naturally wouldn't criticize his son in front of Chanyu Dun, but the situation in Shizhou was indeed difficult and he had to report it truthfully. He felt a little uneasy, not knowing how Yelu Qing would react.

Hu Yanyan felt unhappy when he heard that something happened to Shizhou and he, the Sikong, was totally unaware of it.

He secretly speculated that this kind of thing was most likely supported by Dun behind the scenes.

He coughed lightly, breaking the brief silence, and said, "General, you are the leader of the Western Route. You should go and take a look at this matter and act accordingly."

Upon hearing this, Dun Chanyu felt that what Hu Yanyan said made sense.

He knew in his heart that not only could he not stop such things, but he had to vigorously promote them in order to consolidate his power.

Then a smile appeared on his face, and he said to Yelu Qing: "Yes, the Grand Marshal said so. If you stay here, it will not be conducive to the advancement to the south in the future."

Yelu Qing certainly knew the priorities of the matter, but when he looked at the current situation, he felt helpless.

Every time he destroyed a weapon, he had one less. Even if he wanted to go to Shizhou now, he had to wait for Hu Yanduo to come back to replenish his ammunition.

"Wait two days, I'll take some ammunition with me so we don't run out of ammunition when we go south."

Yelu Qing said slowly, with a hint of worry in his eyes.

When Chanyu Dun heard this, he cursed inwardly, "I don't think you have the brains of a fox. Why do you still try to take advantage of me?"

He still maintained a smile on the surface, but in his heart he was somewhat dissatisfied with what Yelu Qing said.
