Chapter 191 Shen Zhong surrenders!

Su Wenyi walked quickly to Shen Zhong, his eyes revealing sincerity and expectation.

Su Wenyi stared at Shen Zhong with a sharp gaze and said, "Shen Zhong, if you are willing, you can join me."

Su Wenyi's voice was steady and powerful, and it was particularly clear in this chaotic canyon.

Shen Zhong was slightly stunned. He looked at Su Wenyi's determined eyes, and a thousand waves surged in his heart.

On the one hand, he knew very well that he was in a difficult situation, having lost power in the struggle in the Northern Qi court, and his future was uncertain.

And Su Wenyi's recruitment at this time was undoubtedly a life-saving straw.

On the other hand, he was somewhat hesitant. After all, he once had his own position and pride. Now that he had to join someone else's team, he couldn't help but feel a little conflicted.

His eyes wandered among the falling boulders and logs, as if he was thinking about his future fate.

Shen Zhong was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Master Su, why do you want to recruit me?"

Su Wenyi smiled and said, "Shen Zhong, I know you are talented and capable, and you are loyal and righteous.

I believe you will be of use to me in the future."

As Shen Zhong listened to Su Wenyi's words, the balance in his heart gradually tilted.

He thought of his past ambitions and ideals, and now perhaps he could find new opportunities with Su Wenyi.

He gritted his teeth and made a decision in his heart.

Finally, Shen Zhong raised his head, his eyes revealing determination, and said: "Master Su, thank you for your esteem. I, Shen Zhong, am willing to join your army."

Su Wenyi showed a relieved smile on his face. He patted Shen Zhong's shoulder and said, "Okay! From now on, we are a family."

Shen Zhong had just accepted Su Wenyi's offer. Although he had made up his mind, he still had some doubts.

He frowned slightly, looked directly at Su Wenyi and asked, "Sir Su, now that I am under your command, I wonder what you want me to do?"

His heavy eyes revealed caution and expectation.

Su Wenyi looked at Shen Zhong and said solemnly, "Shen Zhong, I plan to let you continue to do smuggling.

This time, however, the target will be Fan Xian and Northern Qi, and you will be the middleman yourself."

Su Wenyi's words were clearly audible in the noisy canyon.

Shen Zhong was slightly startled, and a hint of surprise and thought flashed in his eyes.

Smuggling is already full of risks, and now it is even more difficult to deal with Fan Xian and Northern Qi.

More importantly, if something happens like this, I'm afraid Fan Xian won't be able to bear it.

Shen Zhong's brain was working rapidly, thinking about the feasibility and potential problems of this task.

After a moment, Shen Zhong raised his head, looked at Su Wenyi and said, "Master Su, this is not easy, but I will do my best."

When Su Wenyi saw Shen Zhong agreed, a look of relief flashed in his eyes.

He did not hide anything and directly stated his plan: "Shen Zhong, Fan Xian is a man of extraordinary ability. He intends to take over the inner treasury of Qing State and promote trade between the two countries.

We will find a town on the border as a transit point to take full advantage of its geographical location.

In addition, Northern Qi would keep Fan Sizhe and let him vigorously develop the bank's business.

By doing this two-pronged approach, we can gradually control the economic lifeline of Northern Qi."

Su Wenyi's tone was steady and powerful, and his eyes revealed foresight. "Fan Xian has unique insights and abilities in the management of the inner treasury. Once he takes over the inner treasury, he will surely be able to further expand the scale of trade.

Fan Sizhe also has extraordinary talent in business operations. With his promotion, the bank's business will definitely provide strong financial support for our plan. In addition, we can also bring Dongyi City into it, so that this matter can be accomplished."

After listening to this, Shen Zhong took a deep breath and said, "In that case, from now on, I will obey you, my Lord."

In the canyon, the chaotic situation was gradually brought under control, and the delegation was busy clearing the road.

Su Wenyi and Shen Zhong stood aside, discussing every detail of the plan with a focused look.

Finally, Shen Zhong nodded slightly and got into the carriage with a complicated expression.

With the driver's shout, the carriage started slowly and set off again with the delegation's convoy, heading towards Shijia Town.

The wheels rolled, raising some dust, which seemed to carry a firm determination under the sunlight.

Outside the car window, the scenery kept changing, and the delegation's convoy was moving farther and farther away on the winding road.

At night, Shijia Town.

There was a tense and depressing atmosphere in the town.

Lin Gong led his elite men like a surging undercurrent and successfully occupied the entire Shijia Town quietly.

They acted swiftly and decisively, like well-trained cheetahs, precisely controlling every key position.

At the same time, Shadow also appeared like a ghost with his men and successfully met up with Lin Gong's men.

Their figures intertwined in the streets and alleys, yet there was a tacit order.

The mysterious figure of the shadow seemed to merge with the darkness, giving people an invisible pressure.

The ordinary people in this town were not alarmed and continued to lead normal lives, seemingly unaware of the undercurrents surging beneath the calm.

Lin Gong and Yingzi deliberately let the people maintain their original pace of life to avoid causing unnecessary panic and chaos.

However, all the important characters have been controlled.

They were held in a hidden place, with different expressions on their faces.

Some were terrified, some were angry and unyielding, and some fell into deep despair.

Lin Gong walked with steady steps and came in front of Shadow with a group of his men behind him.

His expression was respectful and solemn. He bowed slightly, clasped his hands together, and saluted respectfully, saying, "Greetings, Grand Master."

The mysterious figure of Shadow was like a silent mountain, exuding an awe-inspiring aura. He nodded slightly and looked at Lin Gong with cold eyes.

Shadow said, "Lin Gong, quickly send a message to Su Wenyi, telling him that Shijia Town has been taken control. There must be no mistakes."

The shadow's voice was deep and powerful, as if it came from the endless darkness, with an unquestionable majesty.

Lin Gong quickly responded, "Yes, Grandmaster. I will do it right away."

After saying that, he turned around and quickly arranged for someone to deliver the message to Su Wenyi.

In this tense atmosphere, Shijia Town seemed to be shrouded in an invisible net.

Shadow's order was like a boulder thrown into a lake, causing ripples and foreshadowing a bigger storm to come.

After Lin Gong finished speaking, he turned and left, and then began to ask his men to send a pigeon message to Su Wenyi.

Things are resolved here!
A few days later, Su Wenyi successfully received Lin Gong's pigeon message.

Su Wenyi was overjoyed when he saw the contents of the letter sent by carrier pigeon!
Afterwards, Su Wenyi directly ordered the delegation to speed up. Su Wenyi couldn't wait to go to Shijia Town.
