Chapter 35: Dian Wei chases a tiger across the stream, Huang Zhong shoots an exotic beast (2nd update

"That's good!"

Su Xuan nodded affirmatively, then cautioned: "But remember to control the volume of goods; it's not appropriate to have too much at the moment! Lest it attract the attention of those with ulterior motives;"

"Currently, we can rely entirely on things like Drunken Immortal Brew to earn more money;"

"The cloth business will touch upon the interests of too many people, so we can slow it down;"

"The confidentiality work at the workshops must be done well; don't let anyone steal the technology!"

"Only when our family's strength and power are stronger will it be the time for the cloth business to truly exert its force, understand?"

You must know that in this era, cloth can even replace coins to a certain extent to serve as currency and salary.

Su Xuan being this careful is not excessive at all.

One does what one is capable of doing based on one's strength.

"I understand! I will control and pay attention to it!"

Upon hearing this, Su Yu's expression also became stern; realizing the hidden dangers, he immediately agreed.

He prepared to make arrangements as soon as he returned.

Ten-plus minutes later,

Huang Zhong arrived with 300 private soldiers disguised as caravan guards.

"Alright! I'm setting off! Second brother, Mother, you all go back! No need to see me off!"

Su Xuan waved goodbye to Su Mu, Su Yu, and the others, and even brought Su Yi along, setting off directly, leading the caravan in a grand manner toward the north.

3 days later, Su Xuan and his party arrived at Jiwu County in Chen Liu, temporarily stopping there.

"My Lord, what are we doing here in Jiwu City? Do you have some important business to attend to?"

Huang Zhong asked, somewhat confused.

This is clearly not the direct route to Bingzhou; it has already deviated somewhat.

Jiwu doesn't seem to be a big or famous city either.

"Hehe!"

Su Xuan smiled slightly upon hearing this: "I heard there is a righteous man named Dian Wei here whose strength is very formidable, so I came specifically to scout for information;"

"If I can recruit him, that would be even better!"

As he spoke, Su Xuan immediately dispatched dozens of scouts, telling them to spread out and scout for news of Dian Wei.

"So that's it!"

Huang Zhong suddenly realized, and immediately became interested: "To be valued by my Lord, it seems this Dian Wei is really not an ordinary person! I wonder how his strength is?"

If his Lord could have one more martial arts expert under his command, he couldn't be happier.

This way, not only would his Lord's influence be further strengthened, but he would also have one more person to spar with.

"As for this, I'm not clear yet! However, he should at least have Danjin Realm cultivation, right? It's highly likely he's in the Gangjin Realm; his strength and talent should be quite strong, and in the future, he might have the potential to compete with you, Hansheng."

Su Xuan pondered for a moment and replied.

He really isn't clear about what Dian Wei's strength is like in this world at this time.

"Oh?"

Huang Zhong was very surprised to hear this: "This person can actually receive such high praise from my Lord; I'm looking forward to our meeting."

"Let's wait and see! Haha!"

Su Xuan laughed happily.

Over half an hour later,

All the scouts had returned one after another. The leader reported to Su Xuan: "Reporting to my Lord! We have already found news of that Dian Wei; this person avenged a good friend several months ago, killed the Fuchun Chief Li Yong, and has been wanted;"

"He fled into the depths of the mountain forest to the north, and the government has never been able to find him!"

"However, the subordinate scouted a piece of news: there is still a good friend of Dian Wei in Jiwu City, who secretly brings some food and clothing to a certain place in the northern mountain forest every half month;"

"The subordinate infers that this person should be going to deliver things to Dian Wei!"

"Therefore, if my Lord wants to find this person, tracking this person should work!"

"Moreover, it just so happens that the subordinate saw that person has already set off with the items; my Lord, do you need us to track him?"

"Oh?"

Su Xuan was somewhat surprised to hear this: "It's actually such a coincidence?"

He didn't expect these scouts to actually find useful information for him.

"No time to lose, you take ten scouts and follow me and Hansheng to track him;"

"The rest of the people listen to my fourth brother's orders and temporarily stay here waiting for us to return."

As he spoke, Su Xuan gave a few instructions to Su Yi, then took Huang Zhong and ten scouts and hurried off.

They tracked Dian Wei's friend very smoothly.

Following him, they wove through the mountain forest, taking many turns, and it took another hour or so before they arrived near a mountain stream.

That person waited here.

Half an hour later,

"ROAR!!!!"

Suddenly, a heaven-shaking roar erupted from the depths of the mountain forest to the west.

However, this sound seemed a bit off, with a feeling of being strong on the outside but weak on the inside.

"There's a big worm? My Lord, be careful!"

Upon hearing this sound, Huang Zhong's expression tightened slightly; he shielded Su Xuan and reminded him in a low voice.

At the same time, he signaled those ten scouts to protect Su Xuan in the surroundings.

"Crack, crack, crack!"

Immediately following, a sound of breaking branches rang out.

Two minutes later, a giant fierce tiger with a body length of over 5 meters and a shoulder height of over 2.5 meters rushed out from the forest, about to leap directly across the small stream in front.

Looking at its expression, it was clearly fleeing.

"This is... an exotic beast?"

Seeing this fierce tiger, Huang Zhong's expression tightened, and he whispered with surprise and joy on his face.

"Hmm?"

Su Xuan was stunned upon hearing this: "This is an exotic beast?"

He immediately observed it carefully. ===== CHAPTER 37 =====
