Chapter 104: People die for money, birds die for food
"Haha, get rich!"
"We've made a fortune this time!"
"The two masters are really wise and martial, and they are clever!"
As Lei Bao and others successively brought back more than 50 boxes of silver from the county government treasury to Heihu Mountain, they all seemed full of ambition and high spirits, and the entire cottage was immersed in a sea of joy and ecstasy.
Everyone put all the boxes in a spacious open space, and someone said with a dry smile: "Big boss, today is a good day, shouldn't we drink wine in a big bowl and eat meat, so that everyone can celebrate?" ”
This proposal quickly received an enthusiastic response from everyone.
Lei Bao sat on top of one of the boxes and waved his hand, "Bring the wine!" ”
After a while, people kept bringing good wine and food, obviously the people in the cottage had received good news early in the morning.
After some staggering, the warm and cheerful atmosphere of the scene was pushed to the highest point.
When the wine was drunk, someone held the wine bowl and said with a big tongue: "The big boss, the little one is the first time since he was born to see so many white flowers of silver, it feels like a dream." Can you open the box and let everyone see it? ”
Lei Leopard drank a lot of wine, but he was too happy today, and many of his brothers took turns to toast him, he was a little drunk at the moment, but his consciousness was still very sober, and he laughed when he heard this: "What's so difficult about this?" ”
As he spoke, he got up and lifted the lid of the box he was sitting on, and then fell to the ground with a bang.
Everyone on the side craned their necks, their eyes wide in anticipation, and as the box was opened, they only felt that their eyes were bright. But when they saw Lei Leopard pour out all the silver in the box, they couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
After a while, Lei Leopard noticed that everyone's expressions were not quite right, and he turned his head to see that except for a few pieces of silver on the ground, everything else was shiny stones.
He rubbed his eyes in disbelief and laughed, "Damn, I must be drunk, and the silver actually made me look like a stone!" ”
After a short period of stunned thought, the people below had already whispered about it.
At this time, Huang Shulang didn't care about eating and drinking, so he hurriedly stepped forward to support the crumbling Lei Leopard, and said with an embarrassed expression: "Big boss, you are not mistaken, these are stones, not silver." ”
"What's going on?" Lei Leopard has fully sobered up, and still doesn't quite understand.
Huang Shulang said with a little shame: "We let them play tricks, but I didn't expect that we had calculated everything, and in the end we still fell into the way of those official dogs." ”
"I see!" Lei Leopard slapped his bare head and scolded hard, "No wonder, let us get it so easily." ”
Speaking of this, he waved his hand and shouted again: "Open all the boxes for Lao Tzu, they son of a bitch!" ”
Sure enough, as expected, among the more than 50 boxes, only when they entered the county government treasury, they saw that the outermost two boxes were indeed filled with some real silver, and the others, except for some fake silver wrapped in silver paper, were mostly stones, all of which added up to only two hundred taels of silver.
When everyone saw it, they first looked at each other for a while, and then they all opened their mouths to scold the government.
Huang Shulang saw that Lei Leopard's face was pale, and he couldn't help but say loudly: "Big boss, brothers, this matter is all to blame for my carelessness, knowing that the official dog is not well-intentioned, but he still fell for them." ”
"Needless to say!" Lei Leopard waved his hand and said, "I can't blame you for this, I also personally checked the silver, and it was too cunning for the official dog." ”
Everyone below hurriedly responded, and for a while they were saying that it was not that we were too incompetent, but that the official dog was too cunning.
Lei Leopard raised his hands, and waited for everyone to gradually calm down before he said loudly: "Brothers, don't be too discouraged, in fact, we didn't lose but earned!" ”
As he spoke, he paused slightly, and then said, "Although we didn't really grab that much silver this time, there are at least nearly two hundred taels here, right?" Think about it, in Fengcheng County, apart from our Black Tiger Mountain, who else dares to go to the county government treasury to grab silver? This time they were lucky, but next time they won't be so lucky, don't you think? ”
The sound below was like a cloud, and the cheers were thunderous.
Besides, Lao Fu looked at the time and it was almost time, the purpose of his trip had been achieved, and all the people in Qifeng Mountain were blocked in the cottage by them and did not come out.
Just as he was thinking about what excuse to find to collect the troops, he heard Shen Jingbei and others say that they had seen through their plan, and Lao Fu would inevitably feel suspicious, but he also took this opportunity to let everyone go home.
It was only when he saw the scene in the city from a distance that he realized that something was not quite right, and he didn't have time to think about it so that he asked the officers and soldiers to hurry back to the city.
After Lao Fu returned to the city, he saw the fire and smoke everywhere, and the doomsday scene of chickens flying and dogs jumping, crying and shouting for his mother, he couldn't help but be a little panicked, and quickly ordered his officers and soldiers to fight the fire and relieve the disaster, and then rushed to the county government in three steps and two steps.
What he didn't expect was that Zhu Chenglin didn't behave like thunder, but sat in the courtyard leisurely sipping fragrant tea, and couldn't help but cautiously stepped forward and said, "My lord, there are no accidents, right?" ”
"Accident?" Zhu Chenglin put down the tea set in his hand, raised his head and glanced at him, and asked without answering, "Are you back?" It's all going well, right? ”
Lao Fu bowed and nodded, and said, "Lord Qiyu, the villain is fortunate not to be dishonored!" ”
"It's okay!" Zhu Chenglin nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Everything in the city is under the control of this county, although there is a little accident in the middle, it is not necessarily a bad thing." ”
Lao Fu was still worried: "Yes!" It's just that the villain listened to the leader of the thieves in Qifeng Mountain on the mountain say that they had seen through our plan, knew that the county government treasury was a trap, and was ready to sack the county seat, and it really scared the villain to see the chaos in the city again. ”
"Oh!" Zhu Chenglin said with interest, "I can't imagine that there is such a clever person in just one Qifeng Mountain, no wonder they were able to rescue the prisoner from the prison last time." ”
Speaking of this, he smiled again and said: "But a thief is a thief, after all, it is inevitable that a person will die for money, and a bird will die for food, just like no matter how cunning a rabbit is, he can never escape the means of a hunter." ”
Lao Fu bowed when he heard the words and said, "My lord, Mingjian! ”
He is also a shrewd person, listening to Zhu Chenglin say this, the silver that he wanted to come to the county government treasury as bait should have been taken away by the thieves in Black Tiger Mountain. But for some reason, he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure it out when he thought about it, so he could only give up helplessly.
