Chapter 201 Encountering a Devil on the Road

"What can this thing do?" Xu Youran asked, looking at the cart and bucket after bucket of black things. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"It's a lot of use. The golden shopkeeper worked hard to sell to Xu Youran, "Oil can not only be used as an electric lamp, but also can ignite a fire, and can also be used as a torch, you can come back when you go home and use it, next time you come to buy salt, I will send you some." ”

The golden shopkeeper said generously.

After finishing speaking, the golden shopkeeper instructed again, "But this thing is flammable, you must be careful, don't light it." ”

Xu Youran listened to this thing, it was good that it could be ignited, they sometimes had to raise a fire in the wild along the way, and it would save some trouble with this thing, and besides, it would be free anyway, so if you don't take it for nothing, you won't take it.

And this salt Xu Youran was a little worried, the amount of this salt was much more than she expected. She's here to smuggle, and when she came, she said that if she went back with so much salt, it would be too eye-catching.

Xu Youran looked at the barrel of oil, and then asked the golden shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, do you still have this kind of barrel for oil?" can you give me some?"

"What do you want this for?" asked the golden shopkeeper suspiciously.

"Hehe, you'll know when you bring it. Xu Youran said with a mysterious smile.

The bucket is not worth much, Xu Youran's subordinates have helped the gold shopkeeper a lot, he naturally will not be stingy with a few buckets, so the gold shopkeeper brought the bucket according to the number Xu Youran wanted.

The golden shopkeeper was very curious, but saw that Xu Youran asked his subordinates to pour all the salt into the bucket, and then began to mix the water.

"What are you?" the golden shopkeeper was a little puzzled, but then his eyes lit up and he understood.

This method is good! The golden shopkeeper praised his cleverness in his heart, and with his eyesight, he could naturally see that Xu Youran should not be from the Wei State, and the reason why he bought salt was definitely not pickled vegetables, no matter how stupid he was, he understood that this group of people were here to sell smuggled salt.

However, Wei is not strict in this regard, although it is not allowed on the surface, but secretly it still turns a blind eye, after all, Wei is close to the sea, and there is salt in the sea, this is a business without capital, and the more salt they buy, the more profitable their country will be.

There are so many people who buy salt, but everyone is carrying salt back in bags one by one, which is very dangerous, and it is possible to be robbed when encountering bandits.

It is much safer to put salt and water in a bucket, and it is usually a car that pulls water, and it is impossible for robbers to see the wealth, and if it rains, the bucket has a lid, and it is not afraid of drenching at all. Except for the accident of going back and boiling the salt out with a little effort, this method is simply a multiplicity.

The decision of the gold shopkeeper will also recommend this method to this kind of smuggling customers in the future, which will definitely increase the number of repeat customers. After all, the fewer people who are arrested, the more people who come back.

Xu Youran and his entourage happily got on the road, followed Xu Youran's cavalry team felt that this trip was really worth it, everyone had gained weight in the past half a month, although they were tired of work, but the food was simply too good, every day was a big fish and meat, and then thought about the days when they used to wait for a day in the snow for a sparrow, and suddenly felt that it was great to follow such a captain.

When they came, it was Xu Youran and his party who were lucky, so they didn't encounter interrogation. And when they went back, they still didn't meet the interrogation, but this was not because of good luck, but because the seventh princess had already greeted her when she went back, so although all the officials saw that they had transported so many things, they all turned a blind eye, and no one asked a word at all.

Until the defense of the Wei State, Xu Youran and his party were all smooth, which made people feel incredible, but after entering the mountain, the good luck seemed to be gone, and Xu Youran and they encountered the first danger of this trip.

When he came back, Xu Youran felt that the road was familiar, so he didn't ask Xiaobai's wolves to come and show them the way. This is not because Xu Youran is trusted, but because Xu Youran has a salt truck this time, so he has to take the big road.

Although there is a sentry on the road, the cavalry team also knows the location, and everyone knows it, and they can go over with a little money to buy it, but if they bring a wolf pack, it will be too conspicuous, so Xu Youran still decided not to summon Xiaobai.

It's just that Xu Youran thought about how to go, but he didn't expect that they would be so unlucky, and they met the red-haired devil directly halfway.

The red-haired devils are actually some original Northern Xinjiang people, they actually lived in the territory of Wei before, but they were later killed by Wei, so they fled to the border. The border is an extremely sensitive place, and neither Wei nor Yan is good at leading troops to exterminate it, so the problem of historical remnants is resolved. At first, it was fine, but in the last two years, it has become more and more climatic, and the people of northern Xinjiang are fierce and unpredictable, and it is difficult to find them. And they ran so fast that they hid in the forest when they faced the large army, which was a great headache.

There are more than 100 red-haired devils encountered by Xu Youran's group, in winter, they are dressed in animal skins, their legs and feet are exposed, and some of them are decorated with several human skulls, and with the red hair at that end, they look particularly hideous, no wonder the locals call them ghosts!

This group of red-haired devils may have eaten the sweetness of robbing the army supplies last time, this time they were ambushed here, and when they saw Xu Youran and they pulled so many carts and things, they immediately rushed out, and they didn't know what to say to block the way of Xu Youran and the others.

"What should I do, captain?" As soon as he saw this group of red-haired devils, all the people in the cavalry team suddenly felt a sudden burst in their hearts, and the fat man asked Xu Youran with trembling all over.

"What else can I do, run! It's impossible to fight at all, I can't let you go to death!" Xu Youran glanced at the fat man as if he was looking at an idiot, and then said.

Everyone thought that Xu Youran could say something that he would rather die in battle than retreat, after all, the things here are all Xu Youran's net worth, but they didn't expect Xu Youran to care about money at all, but put their life and death first, which made everyone very moved.

In fact, they don't know, if they fight, they will fight, and if they can't fight, they will run, this is Xu Youran's policy, although they have run now, it does not mean that this thing is not needed, anyway, it is not impossible to take back these salts, but if they die here, they may not come.

Xu Youran said hello, everyone scattered the car and fled back with Xu Youran, the group of red-haired devils obviously didn't expect this group of people to run away, they have been robbing for a while here, and all they met was to fight with them first, and they really couldn't beat before they escaped, and it was the first time they met so happily.
