The sun is lazy, people are also lazy, go to the depths of the ancient road in Chang'an, slowly come to a dart team, the dazzling dart flag flutters in the wind, "Long's dart game" four big characters, the dark blue color will be every word is smoked with bones.

Under the flag, a man in a blue silk robe rode ahead of everyone.

The man was in his forties, not tall, his eyes were like torches, and he exuded a fierce air all over his body. He doesn't seem to be outstanding, but he is also a famous figure in Luoyang City: Long Zhuang, the leader of the Long Clan's Dart Game.

The person riding next to Long Zhuang has a face like jade, handsome facial features, but there is a clear scar on the left cheek, which makes people feel a little more weird in the handsomeness, he is the most powerful dart head Lin Yun under Long Zhuang.

Behind the two of them were more than 20 dart masters and executioners of the Long Clan's Dart Bureau, all of them riding healthy horses, staring nervously ahead, each of them exposing their blades lightly in order to deal with any unexpected situation that could arise at any time.

The sale of the dart board is called "walking darts", according to the distance of the foot, the value of the goods to take different "dart profits", after the agreement to sign the "dart list", in the dart list indicates the name of the goods at the place of departure, the quantity, the amount of dart profits, etc., and both sides cover the book.

The goods are escorted to the designated place, if everything is safe, you can get the dart profit, the dart seems to be infinite, but in fact, all you earn is the money that licks the blood of the knife.

In the past, the Long's dart game dart was generally driven by the head of the dart or the experienced dart head alone, with seven or eight dart masters and trippers. The master of the game and all the dart heads and dart masters poured out of the nest, which has never been done before.

If the goods are worth the money, but this is not the case.

Long Zhuang couldn't help but look back, looking at the forty or fifty big cars winding behind him, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Except for a dozen or so carriages used to sit on people, the rest of the carriages were loaded with strange "goods": hundreds of jars of good wine, rice, white flour, clear oil, seasonings, cured meat, stoves, tea sets, hu tables, hu chairs, and sunshade umbrellas......

There are all kinds of daily necessities, which are no worse than living at home.

Long Zhuang even suspected that the owner of the goods was not doing business at all, but purely for sightseeing, and those things were also prepared for the journey.

This trip can be counted with people and goods, and you can make a net profit of three thousand taels of silver. But the owner of the goods is very generous, and the price is 8,000 taels, which is more than twice the actual profit.

Of course, it is a good thing to have such a big profit, but Long Zhuang has not seen the world, if it were not for the last resort, he would not have made such a big formation for eight thousand taels of silver.

Originally, he planned to send Lin Yun on this dart, but three days before his departure, a mysterious guest suddenly came to the dart bureau: a father-in-law surnamed Yang in the palace.

Yang Gonggong clearly told Long Zhuang that he must do his best to ensure the safety of people and goods, otherwise Long's dart game will disappear completely.

The dart game is a legal livelihood, and it will not last long without the government as a backer. So they won't easily offend the government, let alone the people in the palace.

Long Zhuang didn't expect that this dart had something to do with the palace, where did he dare to slack off, not only did he take the dart himself, but also brought everyone in the dart game.

In Luoyang's Long's Dart Bureau, in addition to the remaining bookkeeper Director Zhang, there is only the old king who guards the door.

I thought that this trip would definitely be extremely difficult, but after setting off, Long Zhuang found that it was not the case at all.

Along with the dart team, there were two other pullers.

One of them was the strong slaves brought by the cargo owner, about fifty people, each in charge of a carriage, and the care was well organized along the way, and the people of the dart board could not intervene at all, and they were happy to be idle.

The other person was even more evil, it was a group of sergeants with Xuantie and Mingguang armor, under the banner of Yulin.

Long Zhuang has lived in Luoyang for a long time, of course he knows what the Yulin Army is, it is a pro-army to protect the emperor.

Thinking of the father-in-law who came from the palace a few days ago, Long Zhuang was even more curious about the identity of the owner. But no matter how curious you are, you can't inquire about the details of the owner, which is the rule of the dart bureau.

The people of the Long Dart Bureau walked at the front of the team, fifty strong slaves drove the carriage in the middle, and fifty Yulin soldiers slowly followed at the end of the team. With such a large formation, how could there be a thief who is not long-sighted to rob the dart. If someone really comes, it won't be a robbery, it's no different from a rebellion.

Long Zhuang and his subordinates felt very wronged, they were completely useless, and the only thing they could do was to take out the official government when they encountered the pass

Passes, show the officers and soldiers.

In the past, when darts encountered such a situation, in order to avoid entanglement, they would easily stuff some silver taels into the officers and soldiers. But this time it was different, seeing the feather forest banner at the rear of the team, the officers and soldiers urged them to clear the customs as if they were afraid of the plague, how could they care about asking for silver taels.

A strong slave quickly ran from behind to the front of the dart team, and shouted at the dragon who was riding on the horse: "Dragon chief dart, my master commanded, rest for a while before leaving!" ”

Long Zhuang frowned, and nodded towards Zhuang Nu: "Okay, I know!" ”

After hearing this, the strong slave ran away quickly.

Lin Yun's face was unhappy, and he complained to Long Zhuang: "Bureau master, do you say there is something wrong with him, how long has he been walking for a while, and he wants to rest again?" According to this way, I'm afraid I won't be able to get to Taozhou in three months! ”

Lin Yun has been walking darts for so many years, and it is the first time he has encountered such a strange cargo owner. Other shippers hope that the dart team can go faster along the way and get the goods to their destination as soon as possible. But this owner is not in a hurry at all, he sets off every day at three poles, and he has to stop and rest after walking more than ten miles, and he is in a hurry to find a place to stay before the sun sets.

From Luoyang to Chang'an, it took five days, and it was not half the way, which was simply turtle speed. According to this way, it will take two months to get to Taozhou.

Long Zhuang was also anxious, but after all, he couldn't rush after the people paid the money. Besides, those Yulin soldiers are following behind, how can he speak.

Long Zhuang glared at Lin Yun: "If you take over the business, you have to come according to the instructions of the owner, this is the rule of our dart game." Let you rest, you will rest, where are so many words? ”

Seeing the displeasure on Long Zhuang's face, Lin Yun stuck out his tongue and stopped talking.

Long Zhuang got off his horse and arranged for a few dart masters to go to guard from afar.

When you are resting or sharpening, it is the time when the dart team is most lax in terms of defense. Although this trip was very safe, it was a habit that had been cultivated for many years, and Long Zhuang still sent people out.

The whole team stopped in an orderly manner, and Zhang Meng commanded the strong slave to drive the carriage to the open space next to it, so as not to block the way of others.

The dart team was in the middle of a luxurious carriage, and Lu Xiaoxian stretched his waist and slowly got off the carriage.
