Chapter 22 The Driver Wu San

On the second day, Ling Ran left the inn early in the morning.

The White Emperor City, where He Yaoju is located, is still some distance away from Jeju Port, and Ling Ran plans to go to the carriage and horse shop to rent a carriage.

It's not that he has the luxury of building a carriage, how handsome he is to ride a horse and whip,

But he doesn't know how to ride a horse.

Ling Ran sometimes thinks about why every grass and tree in this world is so similar to the earth?

So far this has been a mystery.

Because I woke up early, there was still some mist on the street, and it was very cool.

There are not many pedestrians, and the few who are in a hurry are all in a hurry.

Ling Ran was walking, and suddenly someone patted him on the shoulder from behind, and Ling Ran twisted the person's arm with his backhand.

He had already noticed that there was a person behind him following him, but he just kept quiet to see what this person wanted to do.

"It hurts! Ouch!

It's actually the little guy who solicited customers yesterday, and he still has half a bun in his mouth.

Ling Ran let him go and asked unceremoniously,

"It's you, what are you doing sneaky?"

The little guy moved his arm and smiled,

"Master, you misunderstood, I saw that you went out early in the morning, I was afraid that you were not familiar, and I wanted to show you the way!"

Lead the way?

He asked from the inn junior about the general direction of the carriage and horse shop, but it was indeed not convenient for him to find an acquaintance to lead the way.

But remembering that the two brothers deceived themselves yesterday to lead the way, and today they are eyeing themselves again, this is treating themselves as fat sheep?

Ling Ran looked back, he was the only one,

"Where's your brother?"

When the little guy heard this, he scratched his head,

"You all know, my brother is young and sleepy, so he hasn't woken up yet, hehe. ”

When Ling Ran heard this, he remembered the appearance of the little radish, and he didn't have much resentment towards the two brothers.

"Then you lead the way. ”

The little girl was very happy when she heard this, and handed the bun wrapped in oil paper in her arms to Ling Ran.

Ling Ran really didn't eat it, his stomach growled, and he was not polite, so he took it and gnawed it.

The two chatted and gnawed all the way, and the little guy told Ling Ran some interesting things all the way, Ling Ran felt that the direction seemed to be a little wrong, he stopped, a little displeased,

"Wu San, isn't there something wrong with this direction?"

Wu San is the name of the little guy.

Wu Sanyi heard it and said busily,

"Master Ling, don't get me wrong, the car and horse you said are expensive and the quality of the car and horse is not good, the house I am taking you to now is good and cheap!"

Ling Ran's face softened when he heard this, but he still thought that this Wu San was taking him to his familiar house.

There were even fewer people here, and the neighing of horses was faintly heard.

"Master Ling, the front is "Mingji Che Ma", his family is of good quality and low price, you can rest assured. ”

As he spoke, he took out two coppers from his arms and presented them to Ling Ran.

"This is the five coppers you gave to the foolish brother yesterday, take a trip to collect a copper This is the rule, yesterday and today will receive you a total of two, this is the rest, please take it. ”

Oh?

Ling Ran felt a little interesting, he thought that this Wu San would slaughter him as a sheep, but he didn't expect that he was here to repay the money.

No wonder he didn't know what to do when he gave the first two radishes yesterday, it turned out that he gave too much.

Ling Ran shook the two sons in his hand and asked again,

"Isn't it two? I gave five, and I should have found three. ”

Wu San smiled,

"Master Ling, the bun you just ate is also one. ”

Ling Ran was speechless......

Take an old horse out of the carriage and horse dealer and pay a deposit. When you arrive at the White Emperor City, go to Ming Ji over there to get the carriage and horses, and you can return the deposit.

Why is it an old carriage? Mingji's fellow learned that he had never driven a car and was not familiar with the route, so he recommended this old horse to him.

Say it's mild-tempered and skilled?

also asked him if he wanted to rent a guy to catch a car, Ling Ran waved his hand to indicate that he didn't need it.

Out of the Ming Memory, leading the old horse, Ling Ran always had a strange feeling of being pitted.

From a distance, I saw Wu San looking this way, so he beckoned to him,

Wu San immediately ran over with his waist down, and said happily,

"Master Ling, but you need Wu San to send you out of the city? ”

Ling Ran shook his head and said mysteriously,

"Would you like to send me to White Emperor City?"

Wu San was stunned at first, and then couldn't hide his joy, but immediately showed his sadness.

"What's the problem? ”

Ling Ran asked when he saw Wu San's expression change, he deliberately wanted the two brothers to earn more.

Wu San thought about it and made up his mind,

"No problem, it's about four days to drive, and I have to go back and forth, and I'll charge you two silver dollars!"

Ling Ran nodded in agreement.

Wu San said again,

"Please wait a while, Wu San will settle down when he goes home, and his younger brother will come. ”

Ling Ran asked curiously,

"Your parents aren't there?"

Wu Sandu,

"My brother and I are the only ones at home. ”

After Ling Ran heard this, in this case, he said that he didn't need Wu San to send it, but Wu San insisted, saying that the promised deal must be completed.

Ling Ran said that he couldn't move him, so that he didn't have to rush back to settle the little radish properly.

To say that Ling Ran's impression of Wu San has changed again and again.

From the beginning of the market to make a living, to some money-greedy liars, to sincere hawkers, to the elder brother who takes care of his younger brother.

That's why I thought of asking Wu San to send him to White Emperor City, firstly, to let him earn more, and secondly, to be such a know-it-all that he could also have a good understanding of some situations along the way.

Ling Ran was waiting outside the West City Gate, and he made an appointment with Wu San to meet here.

At this time, there were many people coming in and out of the city gates, and there were merchants, swordsmen, swordsmen, and beggars coming and going.

Wu San called out to him from afar, and trotted over with a package on his back,

"Master Ling! Master Ling has been waiting for a long time. ”

Ling Ran saw that he was running out of breath and asked him to rest and leave again.

Wu San smiled, rode onto the carriage, and looked very skilled.

"Master Ling sit down, drive!"

The old horse moved in response, and although it was not fast, it was very steady.

Ling Ran saw that Wu San was very skilled in driving cars, so he asked him if a solicitor would he still catch a car?

"Oh, Master Ling, Wu San used to rush to deliver goods, this job, it's familiar! ”

Ling Ran nodded,

"Coincidentally, do you know where I've delivered the most in the past?"

Ling Ran smiled,

"White Emperor. ”

Wu San was stunned,

"You've said it's a coincidence," Ling Ran added.

"Hehe, Master Ling is really smart!"

Ling Ran was not at all interested in this kind of stiff sycophant, and asked again,

"Why don't you deliver now?"

After all, soliciting is not a long-term livelihood.

Wu San laughed twice and didn't answer.

Seeing this, Ling Ran must have been worried, so he said,

"I asked casually, don't take it to heart. ”

Wu San smiled reluctantly,

"It doesn't matter, it's just that the delivery lost the owner's things, and the person came back, the goods were gone, and they were driven out. ”

Wu San said it simply, and Ling Ran was secretly in his heart.

"Master Ling, it's good that you are just in a hurry and don't have any goods, otherwise Wu San really wouldn't dare to accompany you this way. ”

Ling Ran was curious, "What do you say?"

"It's a long story, master, you also know that this road is the main road between Jeju and the White Emperor, and the White Emperor City has our two major pill forces in Cangyun......"

Wu San said slowly.

To put it simply, this road was originally quite peaceful, and most of the exchanges were for the medicinal materials business.

For some reason, a convoy dedicated to looting and transporting medicinal herbs suddenly appeared a few months ago.

Nowadays, the past delivery team has to hire people to protect it, otherwise they will not dare to go on this trip.

Ling Ran listened to this, and somehow remembered that a few months ago was not the day Xiao Xiao came back, and it involved medicinal herbs?

What's the connection?

Ling Ran asked,

"In addition to robbing and killing medicinal herbs, has this group robbed anything else?"

Wu San thought about it,

"I haven't heard of that, but nine times out of ten on this road, it's all about the medicinal herb business. ”

Ling Ran nodded,

"Do you know if there is a specific medicinal herb?"

Wu San shook his head,

"This is something that a small citizen like me can know. If you rob the goods, you will rob the goods, and which one will you choose? Isn't this aimed at?"

Wu San didn't understand this.

Ling Ran thought about it, how could a little guy who worries about a mouthful of food every day know this.

"But," Wu San hesitated,

"But what?"

"But the time I was robbed of the delivery, I knew who the goods were going to be given to!"

Ling Ran became interested, and he moved out of the carriage,

"To whom?"

"A pharmacy in White Emperor City, Lin Zhitang. ”

Lin Zhitang? I haven't heard of it.

Wu San was driving the carriage, as if he had something on his mind between his eyebrows, and he didn't have that laughing look.

"Lin Zhitang is a pharmacy in White Emperor City, you must not have heard of it, Master Ling, but many of the medicinal herb businesses in White Emperor City basically belong to those two major forces, and Lin Zhitang belongs to He Yaoju. ”

As soon as he heard He Yaoju, Ling Ran's eyes narrowed slightly, and he vaguely smelled a trace of unusual breath.

Wu San licked his lips, the hand holding the reins tightened, and said with some gritted teeth,

"This gang of robbers has the courage to kill people blatantly!"

Ling Ran knew that Wu San was dismissed because the goods were robbed this time.

He patted Wu San on the shoulder,

"When people come back, they do. ”

"But my dad didn't come back!"

Wu San glared at him and suppressed his throat.

Only then did Ling Ran notice that his eyes were red,

"Wu San ......"

Wu San waved his hand, immediately controlled his emotions, and turned his face away,

"My father is an old man in the industry, and he has taken me around with the team to deliver goods all these years, and he will tell me all kinds of interesting stories, although he has had a hard time, but he is very happy.

That time, we ran as hard as we could, we ran as hard as we could! We couldn't avoid the people with knives behind us. Later, my father probably stopped running because he was too old to run, and he told me to run, and he went and blocked the knives......

I ran back, but the boss in the business only blamed me for how to compensate for the loss of the goods, but he didn't care about more than a dozen lives, haha, haha. ”

Ling Ran didn't feel good when he heard it, according to his guess, this was probably not just killing people and stealing goods, Wu San's father and other people in the team were all victims of some interests.

He wanted to comfort Wu San, but he didn't know how to speak.

Wu San recovered faster than him,

"Master Ling, don't be surprised, I've been sullen with these words, and it's much better to say them today. ”

Ling Ran sighed secretly, he admired Wu San's strength, looking at his appearance, he should be a year or two younger than himself.

"Have you ever thought about revenge?"

Wu San smiled,

"What revenge? I still have to raise my brother. ”
