Shirong went straight to the location of the merchant that worked for the Ji clan secretly. There were many of these people all over the continent, in each kingdom. They would gather intelligence for the Ji clan and also help supply the things to their other members that were current in that kingdom.
In some cases, they also brought a lot of business and profit to the Ji clan. These people were still merchants in the true sense only difference was where their loyalties lied.
It took Shirong much longer than he had expected to reach the merchant. The place was much smaller than one would expect and looked a bit run down too. His carriage couldn't progress beyond a certain point due to the road being smaller and he stopped.
"Wait here, I'll be back later," Shirong ordered the servant and guards before walking into a narrow alley.
