Chapter 799
The men of the Shengyue caravan shouted a few times and blew a few loud whistles, and the grassland was full of jubilation, and the atmosphere suddenly became relaxed. The men's eyes were shining, and they couldn't wait to grow their wings, so they immediately flew to the battlement village.
Ge Changzhuang laughed a few times, and only said: "This group of monkey cubs is greedy, lazy feet, loose waist, and there is no good thing."
In addition to living safely and eating comfortably, there is also a most popular place for caravan men, that is, there are prostitutes in the village, and those women solicit business in the village, and they will pay at least ten taels of silver for a visit. That's it, you still have to be average, if you are younger, look more thoughtful, and have a plump body, the price will still double up!
Twenty taels, enough to buy three or four girls elsewhere! Here, you can only have a night with a merciless prostitute, which is quite unreasonable.
However, this group of big men in the caravan is the age of blood and strength, and they walk back and forth in the desert for four or five months, how many of them can survive? Don't say that the teenager who is not married and spends the money at will, even the person who has parents to support and a wife and children to make ends meet, can't care much at this time.
The caravan didn't care about the money for calling prostitutes, and the money spent for nothing, it was all exchanged for everyone's lives. They can also think about it, as the so-called: there is a life to earn, but there may not be a life to spend. Not necessarily when, horse bandits, soldiers and ruffians will come out, and then there will be wolves, quicksand or something, if you really lose your life, what is the use of more money? It is better to spend it cleanly, and the business is benevolent, if the people in the caravan die, they will give money to settle in, and they will also take care of the aftermath. With this heavy guarantee, the old men in the caravan don't care about spending money.
No, when I heard that I could go to Duozizhai to stay, a group of people were excited, and they ate well. It's nothing to sleep well, the key is that when they think of the white body of the big girl and the little daughter-in-law, they can't help it. Only then did they change their calm appearance in the past, and they all made a fuss.
Qian Cannongou is also quite happy.
Duozizhai is another ambush site for them. Last time in Shikanzi, I don't know why, my own people didn't come, this time in the battlement, they can't run away.
The smile on Qian Paozhan's face was bright with a hint of gloom, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were fierce!
Laugh, laugh, it's over the night. You're afraid you're going to laugh in Hades' palace.
Ge Changzhuang, who had been watching him secretly, narrowed his eyelids and rode forward as if nothing had happened.
With the battlement village as bait, the speed of the caravan was much faster, and the group rode their horses and whips, and rushed to the battlement village non-stop. Finally, at sunset, we arrived at the battlement village.
The desert is boundless, the yellow sand is everywhere, and the sunset renders a piece of gold everywhere in sight, and from a distance, it looks like a piece of gold scattered in the wilderness. Dazzling. The sunset was shining, trying to release the last afterglow, and the clouds on the horizon seemed to be dyed golden, and the heavens and the earth seemed to be shrouded in this soft light, covered with a mysterious golden coat.
Battlements in the sunset. It seems to be covered with a golden veil, and on the simple roof, there are a few lonely geese, which add a bit of warmth to the cold of this stack.
Everyone in the Shengyue Trading House dismounted together, led by Ge Changzhuang. led the horse and walked towards the gate of the battlement.
The gate of three zhang high and more than ten zhang wide has been opened, and the sentry on the gatehouse raised the flag in his hand, as if to welcome Ge Changzhuang and their arrival, and the sharpened bamboo rows were neatly stacked on the wooden fence at both ends, saying that it was a thief prevention, as if it was a little weak and could not help the wind, and it seemed to be more like it was used to prevent animals.
A young man who entered the desert for the first time didn't understand, so he asked the man next to him in a low voice, "Uncle Wang, what is this bamboo for?"
The man surnamed Wang glanced up, laughed twice, and then said, "Raw melon eggs, this is used to prevent wolves."
The boy sighed, stopped talking, but tightened the camel in his hand.
Some drunken people ran out and said directly to Ge Changzhuang: "Yo, Ge Xingtou, I haven't been here for a long time." Eat or stay?"
Ge Changzhuang threw the reins in his hand directly to him, and said, "What nonsense are you kids?" When you come to Duozi Village, how can there be a reason to only eat and not live in the store? The wolves behind me are already in a hurry to take off their pants......"
Ha ha~
This is a bit muddy, but it is also a true portrayal of the men who walk the business road in the desert.
"Hehe, okay, there are not many guests in the past two days, and the girls are idle! Ge Ye, do you want to introduce you to one as well? The girl who came in person has a white face, a big buttocks, and fine hands on her small hands, so you can be happy too?"
Not many guests? Is there a vacant room? Luck is good.
"Go, go, you kid won't die, even I dare to joke." Ge Changzhuang is not good at this mouthful, everyone in the buttress knows that the drunken plan also knows that this joke can be made, so he will be open-mouthed, otherwise, he will not dare to make such a joke at will, offend the guests, even if they don't make it difficult for themselves, the boss, the boss and the lady can't explain it.
"I'll just say that, whatever you want, don't be angry." He nodded drunkly, with a smile on his face, and he didn't look scared at all.
Ge Changzhuang didn't take him seriously, but said: "The old rule, the goods are moved to the warehouse, you show me." Sixteen of us stayed for one night, and we asked for eight pounds of wine, six medium rooms for three people, hot water, two tables of eight vegetables and eight vegetables, four horses to feed fodder and brush their hairs, and twelve camels. Ge Changzhuang walked towards the courtyard and said, "At least the girls' affairs, let them go by themselves." Those who work hard for the commercial house are not low-paid, eating and drinking well is the basic, and calling prostitutes is not within the scope of the commercial bank's contribution.
"Okay!" The drunken plan responded quickly, and said, "Send the master to move the goods with us!"
Ge Changzhuang pointed to the money cannon and said, "Cannon fight, you take a few people to follow, be careful, and get the key to the warehouse back by the way."
Qian Cannon answered, picked four people and followed the guys to the warehouse in the backyard.
The village occupies a lot of area, although it is built in the desert, there is no village in front of it, there is no store in the back, and there is not even a block, but the layout of this village is very fine, there should be a lot of things, but there are many things that ordinary people can't imagine.
The stockade was built in the middle of the desert. There is no terrain to rely on, but the layout of the village is very exquisite. The outer three gates, each with its own potential, but also rely on each other, have something in common, and can defend independently. Not to mention the simple bunkers like turrets on the gatehouse, even in the house, there are fortifications everywhere.
The layman looks at the bustle, and the insider looks at the doorway.
People who don't know how to do things come into the battlement village to see what is fresh. But those who know the layout can see the subtleties at a glance. Although the village looks shabby and simple, if you think about it carefully, you will find its extraordinary. The desert is dry and flammable, and the warehouses and guest rooms of the stacked village. They are all piled up with stone bars, and it is not difficult to see the stone houses, but in the desert, it is really a scene, and it takes a lot of effort to remove the stone bars from the rock wall, let alone the hard work of transporting them.
From this alone, it is enough to see the owner of the battlement. Is it a person with good strength, or someone who opens a store is not for money at all?
As for what, it's hard to say.
Ge Changzhuang followed the guy who led the way into the inn lobby.
The lobby was deserted, there were only three tables of guests, and Ge Changzhuang saw at a glance the proprietress who was pulling the abacus behind the counter - Pan Shuangshuang.
"Yo. Boss, why is business so deserted?" Ge Changzhuang leaned on the counter, pointed to the empty hall and said, "I see that your business, I'm afraid it's going to close down, right?"
The proprietress who had been immersed in settling accounts couldn't help but raise her head when she heard this. first glared at Ge Changzhuang fiercely, and then snorted at him unceremoniously.
"Phew, let your mother's old stinky fart, you're out of business!"
Pan Shuangshuang is not a peerless beauty, she has a small round face, her complexion is not white, and her pair of Danfeng eyes are quite amorous. At the age of twenty-six or seventeen, she only combed a low ingot, with two silver hairpins obliquely inserted on it, and it looked like the weight was not light.
In the desert, women are absolute daughters-in-law, even if this Pan Shuangshuang is only a middle-aged person, but he still has the name of a desert flower. The men are happy to call, and she herself is willing to listen, a win-win situation.
Ge Changzhuang smiled and said, "Just kidding, what are you anxious about?" We were sixteen men this time, four horses, twelve camels, the old rules. After saying that, he took out a bag of silver from his waist and threw it on the counter with a clatter.
Pan Shuangshuang pursed his lips and smiled, gave Ge Changzhuang a wink, and said, "It's about the same." Then he grabbed the money bag and couldn't wait to open it to take a look, and the smile on his face instantly more than doubled.
She knows Ge Changzhuang's rules, what kind of dishes she wants, what kind of house she opens, she knows it clearly, according to this calculation, the money is not only enough, but also more.
Who doesn't like money, she Pan Shuangshuang just loves money.
"Okay, you're talking." Pan Shuangshuang stuffed the money bag into the counter, and then explained to the drunken plan on the side, "You lead people to the second floor, pick a few medium rooms for three people to settle down in, and then explain to the back kitchen, don't drink too much, and put eight dishes on two tables." Hot water should also be prepared, and I will not entertain stinky men who haven't taken a bath for two or three months. ”
Ge Changzhuang listened on the side, and said with a smile: "The boss still has a good memory, we are regular customers, you should be lighter when you slaughter it!" The money has been given, where is there room for resistance, he said this, it was just a joke.
Pan Shuangshuang also knew this truth, and only raised his eyebrows and said: "What's the matter, don't you want to live, but the door is open, and I didn't keep you." Hmph~"
Ge Changzhuang laughed twice, disagreed, and came over to beckon everyone to go to the second floor.
As soon as he walked to the stairs, Pan Shuangshuang's penetrating voice rang out, "Surnamed Ge, don't smoke a cigarette bag and pot in my guest room, let the old lady smell the smoke, I won't peel your skin alive!" ”
