Chapter 128 Shen Nanfeng was attacked on the official road
"Why, do I need you to teach me how to govern Jinghai County?" Xia Qin looked at Yuan Tao and had already developed a great dislike for this man.
Yuan Tao was still arrogant. He looked at Xia Qin again and whispered, "Of course I dare not do that. I am just reminding you as a citizen of Jinghai County with good intentions."
"Thank you for the reminder!" Xia Qin made a gesture to show the guest away.
Yuan Tao waved his sleeves, his eyes filled with malice: "Then Lord Mu, take care of yourself!"
"My lord, I'm afraid Yuan Tao won't give up. Should we let Master Mo deal with it?" After Yuan Tao and others left, Gongsun Xin said with some concern.
Xia Qin said calmly: "It's okay, let them keep jumping. If they jump higher, we can pull out their roots. Shen Nanfeng has already set up various shops in Chongchuan County, including Jinghai County, so he doesn't really need people like Yuan Tao."
Over the past month, the fine salt made by Shen Nanfeng using the method taught by Xia Qin has become very popular.
These fine salts were not only enthusiastically sought after by officials and wealthy businessmen, but were also sent to the imperial palace as precious tribute.
Although the price of this fine salt is twenty times that of ordinary coarse salt, for those powerful people, this amount of money is nothing.
At the same time, the dyeing grasses recommended by Xia Qin also showed magical effects.
After continuous experimentation and adjustment, Shen Nanfeng's dyeing workshop successfully produced cloth of excellent quality.
Both the color style and the brightness of the color are obviously better than other competitors.
Therefore, even though the prices are a bit higher, Shen Nanfeng's cloth shop will usher in a buying frenzy as soon as it opens every day, and all the cloth will be sold out quickly.
In addition, Xia Qin also taught Shen Nanfeng some simple methods of making products from time-travel novels, such as soap, perfume, and white sugar.
In just one month, Shen Nanfeng went from being a little-known businessman in Shu to becoming one of the most talented businessmen in Yangzhou.
If he continued to develop like this, he would most likely become one of the richest businessmen in the entire Great Xia Kingdom.
On the official road not far from the border between Yangzhou and Xuzhou, four carriages were driving at high speed, and Shen Nanfeng was sitting in the second to last carriage.
He was playing with the rose soap that he had made a few days ago using Professor Xia Qin's method.
"This smells really good. Here's a gift for you!" Shen Nanfeng handed the soap to Huo Yanruo, who was wearing a yellow tassel skirt sitting opposite him.
Huo Yanruo took the soap and sniffed it, then asked curiously, "Is this also the method that Lord Mu taught you?"
"Yes, this Miss Mu is really an extraordinary person," Shen Nanfeng opened the folding fan in his hand and commented thoughtfully, "Whether it is military affairs, general affairs or business affairs, she always does amazing things."
"She seems to have a close relationship with Mr. Mo?" Huo Yanruo asked absentmindedly, looking at the soap in his hand.
"Why, are you also interested in Mr. Mo? I advise you to give up this idea. You know that he and the eldest daughter of the Mu family are childhood sweethearts. Why don't you consider me?"
Shen Nanfeng raised his eyebrows and looked at Huo Yanruo with a smile.
"I'm not very interested in Mr. Mo, but Mr. Shen," Huo Yanruo looked at Shen Nanfeng with ill intentions, "I'll tell you if you can last ten moves under my hands."
After hearing this, Shen Nanfeng immediately backed out and said angrily, "Forget it, fighting and killing is not elegant."
"An excuse!" Huo Yanruo was obviously disappointed. "Mr. Mo's martial arts are unmatched in the martial arts world, and he has never lost his composure."
"How many Mr. Mo are there in the world? If they were all Mo..."
"Bang!" Shen Nanfeng was speaking when the carriage suddenly stopped and the sound of horses neighing could be heard outside.
"Someone! Get off!" Without waiting for Shen Nanfeng to react, Huo Yanruo pulled him off the carriage and hid behind it.
"Thump, thump, thump!" A burst of hidden weapons were shot into the carriage.
Then there was silence.
Shen Nanfeng looked at the dark woods all around and couldn't help but muttered quietly: "I never understand why trees are planted on both sides of this official road. Doesn't this increase the possibility of robbers hiding?"
"How many robbers dare to rob the official road?" Huo Yanruo observed the surroundings. "In front of the left and right. Fortunately, Mr. Mo asked Ye Ling's people to follow, otherwise it would be troublesome."
Shen Nanfeng didn't seem nervous: "By the way, can you martial artists see things in the dark?"
As he was speaking, there was a sudden flash of cold light, and in the moonlight, he also saw a flying sword coming straight towards him.
Huo Yanruo had no time to block it, so he had to kick him away. The flying sword passed by and directly cut open Shen Nanfeng's clothes.
Huo Yanruo whispered, "You may not be able to see it, but you can definitely hear it. Shut up first."
Looking at the torn collar, Shen Nanfeng immediately shut his mouth and imitated Huo Yanruo to look around.
Ten minutes passed and no one moved.
The night in mid-July was still a bit stuffy, and Shen Nanfeng was already sweating profusely.
He swallowed and whispered, "What's going on? No movement?"
As soon as he said this, two figures suddenly approached him from both sides like ghosts, and two long swords had already pierced his chest.
However, when the sword tip was three feet away from him, the chests of the two assassins had already been pierced by the chain knives.
Looking at the assassins slowly falling on both sides of his body, Shen Nanfeng, who was originally irritated by the heat, instantly broke out in a cold sweat.
Huo Yanruo stared at him and whispered, "Keep talking."
Shen Nanfeng closed his mouth tightly and shook his head vigorously.
"Speak!" Huo Yanruo whispered again.
Shen Nanfeng had a sad face and spoke in a voice as thin as a mosquito: "Sister, I have changed. I won't dare to do it again."
Huo Yanruo replied with a smile: "I asked you to speak to attract the other party's attention."
"Oh, so that's it," Shen Nanfeng said, and immediately stood up, "Who is hiding in the dark and sneaking around? Your Grandpa Shen is here!"
"idiot!"
Huo Yanruo knocked him down with a sweeping kick. At the moment of the knockdown, a volley of hidden weapons flew over again. However, the Night Spirit members hiding in other carriages also discovered the opponent's position.
The next moment, just a moment, several low humming sounds were heard in the woods.
Huo Yanruo exhaled lightly and pulled Shen Nanfeng up from the ground: "Shen Nanfeng, aren't you usually very smart? Why did you keep doing something stupid just now?"
"Didn't I tell you that I don't like fighting and killing?" Shen Nanfeng rubbed his leg and complained, "But you kicked me really hard just now."
"I was saving your life!"
"Then I can pledge my love to you."
"Keep it for the next person who saves your life!" Huo Yanruo looked at the bodies on the ground, "These people are professional killers. I guess you will have a hard time in the future."
"Targeting me?" Shen Nanfeng was obviously a little surprised, "I have never offended anyone."
"That's what you think. Let's hurry up! Take advantage of the night. When it's daytime, the Night Spirit members will need to rest."
"Don't tell me, they were so steady and ruthless just now. They scared me."
Shen Nanfeng has regained his composure, as if what happened just now had nothing to do with him.
"Because they know best how to kill people."
At this time, a member of the Night Spirit came over and handed Huo Yanruo something.
"Captain Huo, this was found on them."
Huo Yanruo tightly grasped the token in his hand, his eyes flashing with uncontrollable anger and hatred.
"It's them again!"
