Forcing me to keep vigil for your childhood sweetheart? Then I'll leave you.

Chapter 164 Merchants Take Refuge

These secret processing points are limited by recipes and equipment, and cannot produce very good things, but the advantage is that the price is low!

"Can you take me there? I can talk business."

Lin Yi nodded slightly, pretending to be excited, "From now on, we will be traveling together!"

"Okay, you're the only one talking to us like this. We're all going to go buy some goods later in the evening."

"Wait for us outside the west gate of Donghai City. It's a good idea for you to bring some money with you."

As they said this, several vendors climbed over the wall and ran away with their goods.

Lin Yi also happened to go back to get money and exchange information with Bao Bu Tong.

"So fast?"

In the room, Bao Bu Tong had a look of surprise on his face.

He spent most of the day investigating and pursuing the criminal, and in terms of efficiency, he was the fastest in the entire Dayong.

Even so, he couldn't compare with Lin Yi's "super speed".

"I told you, most people are soft-hearted and don't take hardship."

"As long as we can start a conversation and get to know him slowly, we can find his weaknesses."

Lin Yi slowly said, "As for judging and investigating cases... I'm definitely not as professional and fast as you."

Then the two of them agreed that one of them would play the black face and the other the white face.

Lin Yi was responsible for taking over these processing points and vendors, while Bao Bu Tong was responsible for threatening with force.

After all, the Ministry of Justice has already issued a decree, and special matters should be handled specifically.

As long as these vendors do not agree to cooperate with Lin Yi, they are "criminals."

After making these arrangements, Lin Yi took several hundred taels of silver notes and set off.

Bao Bu Tong secretly brought people to follow nearby.

The people he brought with him were all highly capable, and unless there were special circumstances, their tracking would never be discovered!

As the sun set, Lin Yi arrived at the west side of Donghai City, where several vendors were waiting with their horse-drawn carriages carrying goods.

"I'm here, and this time I've brought out all my wealth of several hundred taels!"

"We must do a good job in business!"

Lin Yi pretended to be excited, making these vendors believe without a doubt: this is the person who wants to join their gang!

"A few hundred taels?"

"Brother, I can't believe you have so much money at such a young age!"

Several vendors were staring in amazement.

What kind of business are they doing?

The items are cheap and the quality cannot be guaranteed. I am thankful to be able to earn five taels of silver every day!

"Little brother, why don't you tell us how you made this money, and we'll follow you?"

One of the vendors looked as if he wanted to "pay for it".

"It's just that my family is wealthy."

"My parents and grandfather were very frugal in the past. They saved up these hundreds of taels of silver after decades of hard work."

As he said this, Lin Yi also briefly "introduced" himself: his family was a craftsman, and he made a lot of money building houses.

"If we had this ability, why would we have to go to this extent?"

Several vendors sighed to each other and thought about their miserable lives now.

"I don't know how to do that, so I can only sit back and enjoy the fruits of my labor."

Lin Yi also sighed, "With this little bit of family wealth, I can finally start a business."

Under this deception, they headed west and into the woods.

Relying on some special marks, they wandered around in the woods for a while and finally found a small workshop area deep in the woods.

According to what Lin Yi learned from the conversation on the way, in addition to this workshop, there are actually several other workshops hidden in the trees around the capital.

"I see."

Lin Yi nodded slightly, then glanced back.

Bao Bu Tong was secretly watching from the tree.

Lin Yi had sharp eyes and knew that Bao Bu Tong was following him, so he was able to see that no one else noticed Bao Bu Tong hiding in the tree.

Walking into the workshop, Lin Yi frowned instantly.

This workshop is similar to the original one in Niujia Village.

If Lin Yi had just developed a woolen cloth workshop in Niujia Village, he might have thought it was a good workshop, but now... it was too backward.

The workshops making milk tea powder and instant noodles are placed together, and there are even some making cloth on the side.

When frying instant noodles, the oil will "fry" on the cloth!

Some people are boiling sugar next to others who are polishing chess pieces. Will the wood chips also jump into the sugar pot?

There are also some poker cards whose paper is not strong enough and is even glued together multiple times...

Occasionally, the wood glue would be thrown into the frying pan for frying instant noodles...

Seeing this situation, Lin Yi was very troubled.

To say that they already have a workshop... is indeed true.

If you say this thing is "formal", it's also very dirty and messy when it's done.

"How's it going, little brother?"

The vendor who brought him here asked with a smile.

"The food is good, but...isn't it too crowded?"

Lin Yi forced a smile and asked slowly.

"Just make do with it, it's cheap!"

As they said this, several vendors started to buy goods.

Lin Yi walked around and looked at the situation.

After understanding it, Lin Yi walked to the door and stretched out his hand slightly.

This was his signal to Bao Bu Tong.

At this time, different people have been distributed around the entire workshop.

"Do it!"

At Bao Bu Tong's command, his subordinates from the Ministry of Justice immediately took action and took control of the scene with lightning speed.

"Everyone, my name is Lin Yi."

Hearing this, everyone trembled.

If a businessman has never heard of Lin Yi, it would be like Dayong not knowing that there is an emperor!

"If you are interested, I can cooperate with you. Not only will you be fine, but you will also work under me."

"I will give you money to renovate your workshop."

He glanced at the group of people who had been restrained as he spoke, "From now on, what you make will be the authentic ones."

"If you think you have to continue doing such low-quality things in secret, then..."

After Lin Yi finished speaking, he glanced at Bao Bu Tong.

"According to the decree, you are all criminals. I will put you all in jail and put you on trial."

Under such soft and hard tactics, or in other words, under the "contrast" between Lin Yi and Bao Bu Tong, they naturally chose to cooperate with Lin Yi!

After all, Lin Yi can give him a way to survive, and even a way to get rich!

Not long after, Xu Chuan arrived at the scene and began to register and understand these people.

In addition, Xu Chuan replanned the workshop based on the workshop inside the comprehensive post station and even built an extra road out.

Of course, some iron ore was also sent there, and bicycles can also be produced here.

Lin Yi and Bao Bu Tong’s action this time was like a signboard, and all kinds of secret workshops and vendors came to join Lin Yi!

There were even many people who wanted to give up being businessmen due to the downturn in business, but they also came over and were ready to cooperate with Lin Yi to do big business!

A few days later, Lin Yi received a piece of news: a large number of businessmen cooperated with Lin Yi, which led to many raw material merchants "changing careers".

Since no one is "operating" the raw materials section, these workshops are about to face a shortage of materials.
