Chapter 117: Hearing the Wind and Moving
"Boss! money! a lot of money!" the black-faced young man, who hung upside down under the eaves, stayed at the corner of the street for a whole hour, until all the carriages carrying the copper coins had driven into the restaurant called Qiushui Pavilion.
Xu Chen's side is really busy tonight, there are too many copper coins! The manpower in the hotel is completely insufficient, so he has to divide half of the teenagers to guard in the backyard, counting copper coins This kind of thing Xu Chen naturally can't do, there are more than a dozen big scales in the backyard of the hotel, the copper coins shipped by the buyers, Xu Chen directly put them on the big scale, as long as the weight is generally passable, it is considered to be the handover is completed, as for the loss of it, Xu Chen no longer cares.
The area of the cordon outside has been reduced by half because the number of people has been reduced by half, and the prevention has naturally weakened.
In fact, such a big movement in Yuzhang City tonight has already alarmed many night owls, not only the black-faced young man's family, but many snakes, insects, rats and ants in the city have heard the news, but some weak people reluctantly retreated after inquiring about Xu Chen's name, and those who regard themselves as having some strength still haven't given up this big piece of fat in front of them......
"Drink saliva first, slow down, and speak clearly!" The burly middle-aged man saw that the black-faced young man looked out of breath, and hurriedly handed over a glass of water and said.
The black-faced young man took the water, poured it down, and took several breaths to calm down, and before he could put down the tea cup in his hand, he said impatiently: "Boss! money!
The young man frowned and said, "You just said that!
"Oh......" the black-faced boy laughed wryly.
"Boss, all the copper coins from the convoy at the gate just now were transported to a liquor store in the city! And not only this convoy, but also many convoys that transported money all went there!" When the black-faced young man talked about money, his black eyes were still glowing with excitement.
The young man frowned and thought for a moment, and asked, "What is the purpose of bringing so much money to that liquor store?"
"This ...... I didn't find this .......," the black-faced boy said with a look of shame as he lowered his head.
"What's going on?" the young man asked, he knew Xiao Si's skills, a foundation building master who specialized in cultivating these scout methods, it must be extraordinary for him to be at a loss.
"Boss, I didn't even get close to that liquor store, the guards around it were so tight! I was spotted as soon as I got close!" the black-faced boy explained.
"What are you talking about?" This time, even the Taoist priest surnamed Kong was a little surprised, Xiao Si's ability was not doubtful, he couldn't even take a step closer, such a tight defense was a bit unusual.
"Yes, I didn't even notice the other person's figure, and I only noticed the other person's existence by feeling. Xiao Si said helplessly.
This time, the other two people in the room were not surprised any more, but fell into deep thought.
After a long time, the young man spoke: "Uncle Kong, I'm afraid you will have to go out in person this time!"
Daoist Kong nodded and said, "Don't worry, the altar master!
"Don't worry! Let's get down to business first! There are so many copper coins, those people can't spend them so quickly!" said the young man after a moment's thought.
"My subordinates know!" replied with a nod of his head.
It's just that what young people don't know is that so much money is really nothing! At least in Xu Chen's eyes, it's really nothing! It's actually very simple and fast to spend it!
The next day it was just after dawn, and the gate and the city gate were already open. The backyard of Qiushui Pavilion was full of neatly loaded carriages, and there were a full fifty of them! Fortunately, when the shopkeeper Wang was choosing the location of the new store, he deliberately chose such a courtyard with a spacious backyard, otherwise he would not have been able to put it down this time.
The carriages were all specially asked by Xu Chen to be left by the buyers, and those buyers handed over when they saw that Xu Chen didn't even count them, although they did not miss Xu Chen's copper coins, but this kind of courage still satisfied them. After spending so much money, they didn't care about these broken cars, so most of the people happily agreed to Xu Chen's request.
Besides, although they don't have a little bit of copper coins, in fact, in the process of handling and weighing, there are still some losses, but these losses are deliberately left by Xu Chen to those buyers, and those buyers naturally know about these.
After the fifty carriages were assembled, Liu Jin said goodbye to Xu Chen, Xu Chen nodded, Liu Jin led this large convoy out of the backyard of the wine store, and went out directly to the west gate of Yuzhang City.
Out of the west gate of Yuzhang City, Liu Jin sped up, there is no way that Wuyue Town is still not a short distance from Yuzhang City, they are such a huge convoy, the speed of travel is not fast, but Liu Jin must arrive at Wuyue Town before dark, the time is still a little nervous, and he has to speed up!
"Big brother, when are we going to do it?" said a bald man to another one-eyed man, deep in the woods beside the road.
"What kind of place is this, you idiot, and if you stop for a moment, the defenders of the gate will rush over, and then you will go to prison, or will you go to Hades?" said the one-eyed man, turning his only remaining eyeball, and looking at the bald man next to him with contempt.
"Hehe!" The bald man laughed twice and said, "Aren't we in a hurry! So much money! Not to mention all, as long as we grab a few cars, it will be enough for us to eat and drink for a lifetime!"
"Look at your little bit of interest! Since such a piece of fat meat has been targeted by me He Laosan, then don't want to slip away from Lao Tzu's palm!" the one-eyed man clenched his palm and said viciously.
"That's a must! Our boss can make a move, can he still let him run?" said the bald man with an exaggerated expression.
The one-eyed man was also very useful, but he still pretended to be indifferent, and said, "Okay! Don't fucking slap the sycophants! Hurry up! This time, not only are we eyeing this piece of fat, I'm afraid we'll have to grab it when the time comes!"
After the one-eyed man finished speaking, he hurriedly bent over and followed Liu Jin's convoy, and the bald man also followed, and there was also a dense "shuddering" sound in the grass behind the two, obviously there were a lot of people!
And in the woods on the other side of the road, there are also longing figures, and what the one-eyed man said is indeed right, there are not a few people who are eyeing Liu Jin's convoy! These people are naturally the guys who feel that their strength is good!
"Lao Liu, there are really a lot of insects coming from behind!" On the carriage where Liu Jin was, a person dressed as an ordinary man sitting next to the coachman said to Liu Jin.
"What the fourth prince said is! We have such a big movement, if no one notices it, it will be strange! However, this qiē is all expected by the eldest prince, Yuzhang City is all the way from Wuyue Town, and there are densely populated towns and villages next to it, and this group of people does not dare to do it on the road! They don't know where we are going, so they will definitely wait and see the right time before making a move. When we enter Wuyue Town before dark, these guys will not dare to do anything, the defenders in the town are not vegetarians! As soon as dawn we will start to buy ships and goods, which are 10% higher than the market price, and I am afraid that it will not be long before all this money will be turned into ships full of goods! Could it be that they still come to rob these ships? If they rob them, they will not be able to sell them! These guys are just following our ass and eating ashes! In the end, we will not get anything!" Liu Jin said with a smile.
Sitting next to the coachman was Lao Zhou Kang! Xu Chen naturally couldn't let people run around the world with such a large number of copper coins unsuspectingly, so he asked Zhou Kang to disguise himself and lead a team of teenagers to pretend to be guys and follow the convoy together.
Zhou Kang listened to Liu Jin's words and nodded, this Liu Jin really has some skills, no wonder the eldest brother values him so much. In fact, Liu Jin didn't deliberately show his ability in front of Zhou Kang, the departure of the shopkeeper gave him a deep sense of crisis, this time he came out alone, if he didn't do a good job, I am afraid that he would follow in the footsteps of the shopkeeper Wang!
And the silent young man next to him is one of the eldest prince's most trusted brothers, and it is naturally of infinite use to be able to show himself in front of him and leave a good impression on him.
When Liu Jin was in a hurry with the people, some people in Yuzhang City were also shocked by Xu Chen's fanfare.
In the house of the Wan family in Yuzhang City, the second son of the Wan family was listening to Luo Bin's report in his study.
"Childe, Xu Chen's money convoy left Qiushui Pavilion early this morning, led by that Liu Jin last night to the West Gate, judging from the information just now, they should be heading in the direction of Wuyue Town!" Luo Bin reported to Wan Shijunyu.
"Wu Yue Town?" Wan Shijun frowned and thought about it when he heard the name of this place, and then stretched it out again, the corners of his mouth rose, and said with a smile: "Okay! Good way! Xu Chen's methods are really extraordinary!"
Luo Bin didn't answer suspiciously when he heard Childe's self-talk, since Childe didn't say it to him, then these are not what he should know.
"Childe, as soon as the convoy carrying money left the city gate, someone followed!" Luo Bin then reported.
"Oh, are there those people?" Wan Shijun asked with a smile.
"It's not a great person! It's just some gangsters in the city!" Luo Bin knew the names of these people, but he knew that his son-in-law would not bother to remember this group of unpopular people, so he didn't report their names.
"Hehe, since that's the case, then don't worry about it! This group of people just ran away for nothing!" Sure enough, Wan Shijun didn't bother to ask these people again.
After Luo Bin finished reporting, he bowed down and retreated.
Liu Jin hurried the road as fast as he could, as long as he ensured that the carriage would not fall behind, and soon it would be dark, and the city wall of Wuyue Town was also close in front of him.
Along the way, as Liu Jin said, although the followers behind have been sticking to the convoy, they have no intention of making a move, and they should still be waiting. This group of people obviously found out about Xu Chen's situation, and they dared to keep up, thinking that they were all veterans in the rivers and lakes, and they still had this caution.
It's just that what they don't know is that the end point of the convoy is Wuyue Town! Once the convoy enters the town, they will completely lose the opportunity to do it.
