Chapter 114
It is said that Jia Cong coaxed the bandit leader to come under the tree, sat down and rested for a while, and looked at the man: "Brother leader, there is no one here, how about we open the skylight and say something?" Who sent you? ”
The bandit leader was stunned. "What?"
Jia Cong waved his hand and said, "It shows that you are not a real thief, who sent you to find us trouble." ”
The bandit leader sneered, "How am I not a real bandit anymore? ”
Jia Cong said: "You don't have the temperament of a thief. Originally, it could also be someone who strayed into a bandit for some reason, but you still have the heart to pretend that you are a bandit. So it can only be who sent it. ”
The bandit leader only looked at him indifferently.
"The sentence just now, 'Even if I die, my brothers can get money to live, why should I be afraid of death.'" You answered too quickly, too fakely, too righteously. Posturing is my forte, so I can see who is pretending better than the average person. The bandit leader is not so righteous and awe-inspiring. In addition," he glanced at the group of bandits below, "although there are many of them, they don't look like elite soldiers, and it is easy for the regular army to fight them." You look like a wise man, and if you are their leader, how can you be willing to take an egg and touch it on a stone? It's just asking them to die. Therefore," Jia Cong said with a grin, "Big Brother Leader, who is behind you?" Why do you come to trouble us? There's always a purpose. Now that you are difficult to ride a tiger, it is better for everyone to discuss openly and honestly, and there is a way to ensure that there is a way. ”
The bandit leader's face changed back and forth, and Jia Cong knew that he was right, and said tentatively: "It's good to get to know each other, my name is Jia Cong, what about you?" …… Hey, don't pretend, look at your expression very clearly, you already knew that my name was Jia Cong. How did they sue you? Is the smartest kid Jia Cong? ”
The bandit leader saw that he couldn't pretend anymore, so he had to say: "There are two children from Rongguo Mansion, and the fat one is called Jia Cong." ”
Jia Cong glared and said, "Isn't Brother Huan fat?!" He's also clearly fat, but he's just a little thinner than me. ”
Where did the bandit leader have the heart to discuss with him whether he was fat or not, and ignored him.
Jia Cong said again: "Big brother leader, what are you singing this play for? Gave Uncle Gao a faceless and robbed under his rule? Or is there another group of men waiting behind the mountain, and in the middle of the fight they come out to help us fight, and then take the opportunity to get to know Lak? Or is there another group of men and horses waiting behind the mountain, and they come out halfway through the fight to rob and throw the black pot to this group of ordinary bandits? I don't think you have much murderous energy, and you are not prepared to take our lives? Oh, no, it won't come out when I talk about murderousness, if I have something to say......"
The bandit leader sneered: "There are so many words at a young age, I will kill you with one sword, it is the most troublesome!" ”
Jia Cong snorted: "Come on, you're not so afraid of death, you still want to be alive when I die?" Is it okay to get a good idea? You see, it's not going to be a fight, it's not going to be a fight, it's not going to be a fight, it's not going to be a fight, it's not going to be a fight, it's not going to Besides, you're really not afraid of a mistake, you let us shoot into a hedgehog first? Hey, I've been talking for a long time, and I still won't say my name. Or you can sue me for a pseudonym, or a nickname. What little Song Jiang, thin Li Kui, and vulgar Lu Zhishen ......"
The bandit leader waved his hand: "You don't have to spy on me, it's useless for you to listen to your pseudonym." "I had a plan to take all of your birthday gifts, but now it seems that it will fail." That's it, sure enough, there are people outside the world, and today is only a trip for nothing, and there will be a period later. Then he turned around and was about to leave.
Jia Cong grabbed him: "Wait! Big brother, at least tell me if I'm from Ping'an Prefecture or from outside. If it's in Ping'an Prefecture, I have something to tell you. ”
"What's the matter?" "Gao suddenly collected a lot of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes in the past two years, which is a deception." Jia Cong said solemnly with a stiff face, "Now that he has understood, he will not pit the people again in the future." It's just that the ones that were taken away in the past probably won't be returned. ”
The bandit leader had already taken two steps and was stunned when he heard the words.
"In short, if you are really a local citizen, you will believe me when you see the tax collection document in the near future."
The leader of the bandits came back again: "Who deceived him?" ”
Jia Cong shook his head: "I really can't say this." Even if you exchange your backstage for me, I can't say. ”
The bandit leader hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm really a bandit." ”
Jia Cong glanced at him: "I don't believe it." It's not a thief, it's fake. ”
The bandit leader smiled bitterly: "That's it, believe it or not, I meant to get money." "Anyway, really withdraw and go down.
Jia Cong hurriedly followed and shouted, "Hey, do you really not leave a name?" If the mountains don't turn around, they won't be able to see each other again in the future. It doesn't matter which battalion general you are, the general robs ordinary things. ”
The bandit leader almost stumbled under his feet.
Jia Cong saw it clearly, and without waiting for him to react, he continued: "My family has opened several antique shops. If you're a bandit, we can still do business. You can't take antique calligraphy and paintings and go directly to exchange firewood, rice, oil and salt. If you sell it to a pawnshop, won't the pawnshop kill you? My antique shop is doing business fairly. ”
The bandit leader had stopped and looked back at him.
Jia Cong said very sincerely: "Now my family committee is not as good as it was back then, but it is still more or less a national mansion and has a few noble relatives. Ordinary small antique shops dare not do business, we dare to do. ”
He's been thinking about money laundering for a long time. This business is simply tailor-made for the current magnates, the money is easy to make, it doesn't take too much effort, and the current chaos makes the court unable to take care of such small things. If the princes and princes want to go their own way, money is the most important thing, and it is inevitable that a large amount of money from unknown sources must be laundered. This bandit leader is only afraid that he is just like Jia Pardon and Jia Si back then, and he was ordered to rob. There may not be only one person like him, and this business is done.
The bandit leader looked at him carefully for a long time, and said, "That's it, I can't be the master, I'll talk about it later." ”
Jia Cong nodded again and again: "Okay!" Why don't you set a code? ”
The leader of the bandits said: "Please settle Third Master Jia." ”
"Hmm...... Signal...... I'm afraid you're heartbroken and no one will help you wipe your tears? ”
The bandit leader was stunned: "What kind of code is this?" Three long and two short whistles are enough. ”
Jia Cong grinned and nodded, "Okay!" I'll wait for you! "And an ok gesture.
The two of them walked down one after the other. The bandits saw that their leader and the friendly people came down, and they also guessed that they would not fight today, and some of them were anxious and began to pack their weapons. The leader waved his hand, and his men climbed up the hill in a hurry, and in the blink of an eye there was no shadow. The leader was on horseback and hugged his fist to Jia Cong: "Master Jia, I hope what you said is true, and the future will be long." "The horse is gone.
Seeing that he was gone, Gao Ying hurriedly asked, "Cong'er, what did you tell him?" ”
Jia Cong sighed lightly, and said: "I said that Uncle Gao will no longer collect harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, let him and his bandit brothers go back and find a way to wash their white, and return to the township to live a good life." He looked at Gao Yingzheng and said, "Uncle Cousin has already agreed that day, so I swear by the curse, don't cheat me." ”
Gao Ying hurriedly said: "Listening to Weiss's words that day, my father already understood, and he issued a document to remove many taxes before, and they came here late." He looked at the whereabouts of the bandit leader again and said regretfully, "Just now you took advantage of the situation to recruit him, a group of ordinary bandits let him practice so neatly, Zhao'an came back and let my father teach, you can be a general." ”
Jia Cong rolled his eyes: "This person has suffered from your family for two years, and they want to recruit an in a few words?" If you want to recruit An, can you wait for your cousin's tax reduction for half a year? Horizontal on the top of your house, if you are really a character, you can still emerge sooner or later. At that time, he saw that his cousin was also pleasing to the eye, and it was easier to recruit him. ”
Gao Ying thought about it too, so he just stopped. The crowd made a false alarm and straightened out the carriages and horses.
Because this section of the road is really not a prosperous place, I only walked to a very small village at dusk to spend the night, thanks to Gao Ying's recognition of the road. There were only a dozen or so households in the village, and there were not many houses, so they gave the villagers a few extra money and rented some three farm yards to rest, so that the owners of the families could stay with relatives for a while. Fortunately, the land here is not valuable, and the yard is not small.
After cleaning up, Jia Cong was curious about what the village looked like in ancient times, so he took advantage of the darkness to walk around with his sleeves, feeling that the difference from hundreds of years later was not too big. Just as he was about to go back to his residence, he suddenly heard three long and two short whistles in his ears, and hurriedly raised his eyes to look around. I saw that the bandit leader was sitting under a big locust tree, and he had changed into an ordinary villager's dress, which was quite rustic.
Jia Cong hurriedly smiled and ran over and stretched out a thumbs up: "Brother Villager, you are very handsome!" ”
People had never seen such a skinless and faceless person before, so they were stunned and said, "My surname is Zhong." ”
Jia Congxiao took a branch on the ground and drew the word "bell": "Okay? ”
Zhong Heng couldn't help but chuckle, took the branch and wrote the word "Heng".
Jia Cong rolled his eyes: "This name, do you believe it yourself if you want to say that you are a child of an ordinary family?" ”
Zhong Heng sighed: "Don't mention it, I didn't intend to tell the third master the name, and I don't know how to ......" he shook his head, "Zhong was ordered to discuss business with Jia Sanye." ”
Jia Cong nodded and asked, "Do you know my family's dart game?" ”
Zhong Heng said: "Taiping Dart Bureau." ”
Jia Cong said: "You go to the Taiping Dart Bureau to find Jia Si's shopkeeper." ”
Zhong Heng couldn't help but sigh: "The pardon committee really values Jia Si's shopkeeper. ”
Jia Cong said: "That is natural, they are a lifelong friendship. Well...... This one...... And a code. It's really a code, just a little weird. He said embarrassedly, "The code is, Marvel was originally called Amazement." ”
Zhong Heng frowned: "It's really strange. ”
Jia Cong smiled: "So there will be no mistake." ”
Zhong Heng nodded, and asked again: "Those little crossbows, are they from the Gao family or yours?" ”
Jia Cong rolled his eyes: "I said, Brother Zhong, do you think I will sue you for such an important matter?" ”
Zhong Heng couldn't help laughing: "It's too." Then he got up and patted the dust, hunched over and walked slowly, walking like an ordinary villager.
Jia Cong looked at him for a long time, and only walked back leisurely when he was gone.
That night, Jia Cong and a group of henchmen talked about Zhong Heng in detail, and asked Gong Kun if he knew the name. Gong Kun frowned and thought for a long time, and said, "I haven't heard of this name, so it's better to ask someone to find out." ”
Jia Huan said: "If you don't do business, you can't make it so clear." ”
Gong Kun waved his hand and said, "It's not just about business. Now that he was able to change into the farmer's clothes and wait for him, it was evident that he had been prepared. I'm afraid that the third master Cong has guessed right, they still have a backhand, so be cautious tonight. So he went out and commanded everywhere, whether it was food or drink, or that all the people who came and went in the village should be careful. Everyone knew that he was Mr. Wei, and when they saw him so solemnly admonished, they were all a little more vigilant.
When he heard that he insisted on being on duty in person, Jia Cong persuaded him for a long time but he didn't listen, so he had to tell him to bring a Western fire. gun, and took a telescope for him. Gao Ying originally respected him, and he had never seen him like this all the way, so he was a little uneasy, and after thinking about it for a long time, he actually went on night duty in person.
And in the evening they all fell asleep. There was nothing going on until three o'clock in front of them, when someone shouted, "It's on fire!" ”
The village suddenly became lively. In the distance, a house was smoking in the moonlight, some were howling and crying, and many dogs were barking together. Immediately, someone came and called for help, and asked them to help put out the fire.
Mi'er shouted: "Don't run around, I'm afraid there will be fraud!" ”
The man shouted, "The village has let you live, and you strangers refuse to even help put out the fire?" ”
Mi'er stood in the moonlight and squinted at him, and suddenly threw a flying knife over, only to hear the man cover his arm with an "oops". Before he could speak, Mi'er said first: "I have never seen a village man wearing such boots, it is obvious that they are in the barracks." ”
The man shouted half a word, and lost his voice when he heard the words.
At this time, Gao Li came over, and couldn't help but exclaim: "The things of the barracks? Who is he? ”
Mi'er said: "Heng Zhi is not a villager." ”
The man hurriedly shouted: "I have ordinary boots, where is the barracks?" When did the barracks manage the boots? ”
Mi'er said: "I'm sorry, I just said casually, the moon is not clear today, I only see boots." ”
The man shouted again, "Can't ordinary villagers wear boots?" There are also hunters in our village. ”
Mi'er said: "The villager can naturally wear boots, but the villager doesn't need to explain to me that the half-day boots are not in the management of the military camp, and he doesn't know that the military camp is in charge of the boots." As he spoke, he looked up and saw that there were already a lot of people surrounded by black pressure in front of him. Then he sneered, "My brother is still Zhong Heng is a man." ”
I saw a man come over from the crowd and said, "It has nothing to do with Zhong Heng, he is already leaving." ”
Mi'er said "oh": "So, are you having a collapse inside?" ”
The man sneered, "We don't bother you with our business. Acquaintances hand over the things and let the group of you go. ”
Mi'er smiled lightly: "People are self-aware. Judging from this article alone, Zhong Heng is ten times stronger than you. ”
The man snorted, waved his hand, and said, "Don't talk nonsense, see the truth under your hands!" Nai lifted the big knife in his hand and rushed over.
Where can Gao Ying let a half-year-old child fight with others? Moreover, in his eyes, Mr. Jarvis is a military advisor in the coming day, and he can't go to the battlefield lightly, so he hurriedly stopped the front with a gun: "Don't bully children, Gao will fight with you." ”
At this time, Jia Cong and the others got up early, and quietly walked around these small courtyards with their young age and short body, good guys! There are many families, and their side has been solidly surrounded
Jia Cong, the bear child of the Red Mansion
