Qu Dayou walked next to Xu Ning and patted Xu Ning’s shoulder lightly.

He said earnestly, “Xu Ning, don’t blame me. Although you are in some trouble right now, this may also be a good opportunity in the future.”

Xu Ning was a little confused. “Sir, can you explain it slightly more clearly.”

Qu Dayou did not directly respond to Xu Ning, instead he asked, “Do you know a lot about Dayuan Trading Company”

Xu Ning nodded. “I have heard some information from Lieutenant Chen Ren, and people around me have also told me some stories about Dayuan Trading Company.”

“Oh?”

Qu Dayou asked again, “What did Chen Ren say about Dayuan Trading Company?”

After hearing this, Xu Ning repeated what Chen Ren said to him..

The main point was to recognize the contribution of Dayuan Trading Company to Kangyun County and recognize their status in Kangyun County.

Qu Dayou finished listening to Xu Ning’s words and did not comment. He continued to ask, “What about you, what do you think of them based on your recent encounter with Dayuan Trading Company?”

Xu Ning didn’t answer immediately. He organized his thoughts and said, “Dayuan Trading Company is not as good as what Lieutenant Chen said. They are too greedy.”

Qu Dayou was on the opposing side of Dayuan Trading Company, so Xu Ning spoke his true thoughts.

Qu Dayou nodded silently. “You are right, they are too greedy… But what Chen Ren said is also true. In any case, Dayuan Trading Company’s past contribution to Kangyuan County cannot be ignored, but…”

A cold light flashed in Qu Dayou’s eyes. “However, their past contributions do not cover their current behavior.”

Xu Ning frowned when he saw the murderous look on Qu Dayou’s face.

“At the beginning, Dayuan Trading Company did help the Black Armored Guards a lot. Without them, the Black Armored Guards would not be able to restore the people’s livelihood in Kangyun County so quickly. But as Dayuan Trading Company’s influence in Kangyun County increased, they began to turn on the Black Armored Guards.”

“They were no longer satisfied with just being a business, they wanted to seek more power in Kangyun County.”

“The biggest turning point was the replacement of the captain’s position in Camp Site One eight years ago. Back then, the Captain of Camp Site One stepped down and returned to Yunying City. At the same time, Captain Cai Qinghan took over Camp Site One. Since then, Dayuan Trading Company has continued to expand their power.”

As Qu Dayou spoke, his eyes were filled with nostalgia.

Xu Ning stood on the side, thinking while listening.

Among the Kangyun County Black Armored Guards, the highest ranked was Commander Wei Changqing, and there were four captains under him, namely, Ning Fengwen, captain of the personal guards, Cai Qinghan, Captain of Camp Site One, Xia Yuanxing, Captain of Camp Site Two, and Captain Qu from Camp Site Three.

Among these people, Qu Dayou was the last one promoted, so his power was relatively lower.

“After Cai Qinghan was promoted to captain, he kept making deals with Dayuan Trading Company. He and Dayuan Trading Company conspired together. He even allowed Dayuan Trading Company to participate in the policy formulation of Kangyun County.”

The more Qu Dayou spoke, the more cold his tone became.

“That coincided with the high-level changes of the Kangyun County Black Armored Guards. The commander and the captains resigned one by one. After the arrival of the new commander and captains, Cai Qinghan began to involve Dayuan Trading Company more and more into Black Armored Guards’ affairs.”

“The Maple Lane Guard Station you are at is the one that is the most involved. From the top to bottom, they are all puppets of Dayuan Trading Company.”

Xu Ning heard this and asked, “But master, no matter how powerful Cai Qinghan is, he is only a captain, while Master Wei is the commander… Does Master Wei allow Cai Qinghan to act like this?” 𝘧𝓇𝗲𝑒we𝙗noѵ𝑒l.𝐜o𝘮

“Master Wei does have a higher status…” Qu Dayou said, “However, he doesn’t want to get involved.”

“Master Wei comes from a big family in Yunying City, but for some reason, he needs to stay here for a few years. And during this period of time, Master Wei doesn’t want any trouble.”

“Prior to this, Captain Xia and Captain Ning were interested in fighting against Cai Qinghan, but at best they were equal in power against Cai Qinghan and Dayuan Trading Company. When Master Wei agreed to the construction of Camp Site Three, I was promoted. Our strength against Cai Qinghan has greatly increased, and this has given us the opportunity to take the initiative and fight back.”

After hearing this, Xu Ning finally realized how deep this story went.

In addition to the localization of the forces behind the selection of the new Black Armored Guards recruits, there were also factors of internal resistance.

This group of newcomers had already become a part of other people’s plans before they even entered the Black Armored Guards.

This made Xu Ning feel the sense of being manipulated and being out of control.

“The reason why you were targeted by Dayuan Trading Company has something to do with our previous decision. When the newcomers were assigned a few days ago, Maple Lane Guard Station clearly stated that there was enough manpower, and to not send any newcomers. The real reason was because they did not want my people to enter Maple Lane, however, I still stationed you there.”

“The reason for doing this is because Maple Lane is their strongest foundation.”

Qu Dayou explained the reason for Xu Ning’s recent encounters.

Xu Ning was baffled.

In the eyes of Qu Dayou and others, he was just an offensive pawn, or a sting that made the opponent slightly uncomfortable.

As long as he was stationed at Maple lane, Dayuan Trading Company would feel uncomfortable. He had become a sword, and the person holding the sword might stab at any time if given the opportunity.

Therefore, Dayuan Trading Company spent much effort to win over him, to wear out the sword.

“But Xu Ning, you shouldn’t blame me either.”

Qu Dayou said, “We are preparing to fight against Dayuan Trading Company. You are our first move. Although you are facing a tough opponent, there are three captains that support you. You don’t have to worry too much about your safety. Moreover, if you can beat Dayuan Trading Company and weaken their strength, you will become a hero.”

“I can promise you now that as long as the power of Dayuan Trading Company decreases, you will be the first lieutenant of Camp Site Three!”

Xu Ning’s facial expression didn’t fluctuate much after hearing this.

In fact, regardless of whether he became a lieutenant or not, he did not have a choice at all.

“Master…”

Xu Ning understood the situation, but he still had a question. “Master, why did you choose me to go to Maple Lane? I’m just a cyan plate rookie, there are yellow plate rookies that are better than me.”

Qu Dayou laughed. “This is just a coincidence.”

“First of all, I checked your information. You are an outsider of the Tao Village. Generally speaking, there are problems with outsiders getting along with their village. But according to my observations, you are well integrated into the Tao Village. The young people of Tao Village accept you. This at least shows that you are not a bad person.”

“Not a bad person…”

Xu Ning listened silently.

“Secondly, back when you fought with the young man from the Tan Village, I was observing you. You are not like the other young people, who are hotheads. When both parties were fighting, you were finding opportunities using less effort. You make good decisions. I think you are a smart person.”

“It’s better to put a wise man in Maple Lane than to put a strong man. There is a high probability that you will not be corrupted, and you will find ways to protect yourself. Moreover, if the time is right and the conditions are met, you have the capabilities to cause lethal damage.”

“Of course, you have also noticed the problems of Dayuan Trading Company and chose to keep your distance. This also shows that my vision was correct.”

Qu Dayou finally gave Xu Ning all the information.

Although Xu Ning felt that there was no way for Qu Dayou to know all the inside business of the Black Armored Guards, after hearing this, Xu Ning was full of confidence.

Xu Ning also had a sense of how to deal with the Maple Lane Guard Station in the future and how to deal with the relationship with Dayuan Trading Company.

“Okay, that’s enough for now.”

Qu Dayou picked up the wooden box from the table and threw it directly to Xu Ning. “Take it, this is yours.”

Xu Ning took it with a look of hesitation.

Seeing this, Qu Dayou said, “I seized this wooden box, it is mine. Now I gave it to you, you don’t have to worry about it.”

“Thank you Master Qu.”

Xu Ning thanked him, but did not leave yet.

“Anything else?”

Qu Dayou asked.

“Master Xu…” Xu Ning asked tentatively, “Can I exchange these three Qinglu Dans for taels?”
