Araku World Chapter 25 The Villain (Supplement)
"The horses are dead?"
Chen Meng's gaze bypassed the people in front of him, looking at the horse corpses piled up together, and his heart was cold.
"Yes, I'm afraid this cargo won't be delivered. Bai Lang sighed beside Chen Meng.
Cangyang Ancient Road, a place where there is no village and no store in the back, cannot find a horse trailer with this book.
"Do you want to go back to East Cliff City, go to those sect families, and buy some horses? Gongsun Zhi stepped forward to give advice.
Chen Meng shook his head and said, "Ordinary horses are not good, you can weigh the weight of the carriage, and you will know why I said this." ”
Everyone was puzzled, and immediately walked out of several people to try to lift the carriage, but they were surprised to find that the carriage was extremely heavy, and even the eight people who went up could not shake the carriage at all.
"Childe, what's in this carriage?" Guilin was also the one who had just gone to lift the carriage, and he walked back to Chen Meng with a shocked face.
"A kind of demon beast, I only know that they are helpless with this kind of demon beast, although they are poisoned to death, but they can't break their scale armor at all, and after checking the classics, I learned that the scale armor of this demon beast is a good material for casting weapons, so I sent someone to the Forge Valley to reach this deal. Chen Meng stared at the carriages and said heavily.
"The horses that were towed before were a breed of famous rock horses, and unlike the horses you sat down to drive, they were specially purchased by the president to the horse farms in the south, and the speed of the journey was not fast, but the strength was amazing, and I think only horses of this breed can pull these carriages. ”
Hearing this, everyone sighed, although they were heading south, they all knew that the horse farm was in the southwest direction of the Star Rain Chamber of Commerce, and the direction where the Cangyang Ancient Road was located was in the southeast direction of the Star Rain Chamber of Commerce.
The two places are far apart, so I went to the racecourse to buy a rock horse, and then pulled the carriage to the Casting Valley, I am afraid that I will not be able to hurry.
"To buy horses, no matter what, we have to delay for ten days and half a month, even if we temporarily change the route and take the fastest road, it will take seventeen or eighteen days to reach the Foundry Valley, this is still a shit luck and did not meet the mountain bandits, even so, we will violate the deadline." Gongsun Zhi, the oldest with the most qualifications, began to analyze the situation of the caravan, and the conclusions he came to made everyone's faces sink down.
"What are you kidding, the fastest way to the Forge Valley, there are as many mountain bandits as there are cows, there is a mountain bandit den after walking a few miles, and going there to hurry is only slower than walking the cliff mountain range. Wang Xinjian snorted coldly on the side, the cliff mountain range in his mouth was also a road to the Forge Valley, but it was the most dangerous, the slowest way for the carriage to walk.
"The best plan is to take the waterway and go to Xuanyao Wharf in Xuanyi City to board the ship, but the ships at Xuanyao Wharf are not as small and slow as Tianlai Wharf, and when they arrive in the Foundry Valley, I am afraid that it will be two months later. Wang Shan stood aside and said in a deep voice.
Chen Meng looked at the people who were discussing fiercely, shook his head with a smile, looked up at the sky, and muttered, "Is this the will of heaven?" ”
Liu Jun clapped his hands and motioned for everyone to calm down, looked at Chen Meng and said, "What providence." ”
"The casting valley needs this batch of goods, and it is to prepare a gathering of casters who have no sect in the world, and the casting of the disciples in the valley, among the big competitions, the most core casting materials are these scales and armor in our carriage now. Chen Meng looked at Nanfang, the expression on his face was not a trace of heaviness, but a little relaxed.
"Now our best plan is to arrive in the Forge Valley in two months, and it would be good if the people of the Forge Valley didn't trouble us at that time, and they still want them to give us money? ”
Everyone thought about it carefully, and what Chen Meng said was also true.
The Star Rain Chamber of Commerce has an excellent reputation outside, for so many years, there has not been a time when the escort goods will be delayed, and the Casting Valley obviously took a fancy to this point before choosing the materials of the Star Rain Chamber of Commerce, but on the day of Dabi, the Casting Valley could not get the materials of the Star Rain Chamber of Commerce, and had to purchase it in a hurry.
"Could it be that we won't go?" Gui Rin Falcon looked at Chen Meng's face, and from the other party's nonchalant look, he vaguely guessed something.
"To be beaten, to be scolded?" Chen Meng shrugged his shoulders and said, "Return to the Star Rain Chamber of Commerce, don't go to the president for your wages, I will pay for it, and I will also explain what happened here with the president, and I will pay all the compensation." ”
"How can this be done, Childe, you treat us well, and it is not what you want when this kind of thing happens, how embarrassed we are to ask you for wages and compensation, we should also bear it together. ”
Seeing that Chen Meng wanted to take all the responsibility on himself, Bai Lang was the first to be unwilling.
Everyone also spoke out, saying that they didn't want the salary, and Chen Meng didn't need to bear the compensation alone, they would all pool funds to repay the president's loss.
On weekdays, Chen Meng's actions have long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and almost everyone in the caravan respects him, and never looks down on this captain because of his young age.
In the face of these sudden things, they don't want Chen Meng to bear everything alone.
Of course, there are always a few outliers in the crowd, who have no affection, and they are happy to see Chen Meng taking all the responsibility on himself, and the representative of them is Yuan Lin.
"Blindly mixed up, the son said that he was willing to pay all the compensation, and what else did he argue with him. Yuan Lin stood at the very edge of the crowd, looking coldly at Bai Lang beside Chen Meng.
"Yuan Lin, do you have a little conscience, you can't see how well Gongzi treats everyone on weekdays? At this critical moment, do you still want Gongzi to take responsibility alone?" Li Xiong leaned on Yuan Lin closely, and when the other party's voice fell into his ears clearly, a wave of anger suddenly rose in Li Xiong's heart.
"I used to pretend to be pitiful, and when I saw me, it was like a mouse meeting a cat, and Childe saw that you had seriously ill parents at home, and looked at your timid appearance, so every time I paid at the Chamber of Commerce, I gave you an extra 10,000 yuan, and now in such a catastrophe, you still let Childe bear everything for you, are you still human?"
When they heard the commotion behind them, they all looked back.
Yuan Lin was uncomfortable by everyone, and after glaring at Li Xiong, he jumped onto a carriage and sat down steadily.
Gui Rin Falcon looked at Yuan Lin and frowned, thinking about what Li Xiong had just said, and suddenly said to Chen Meng: "Childe, did Yuan Lin give you 450,000 Xiang coins today?"
"Why did he give me the money? ”
"Divide it, the fur of the bear, suffered. ”
When Gui Rin Falcon looked back again, he found that Yuan Lin had disappeared on the top of the carriage, and the people around him only said that Yuan Lin ran to the dense forest next to him, thinking that Yuan Lin was going to pee.
"Villain!"
