Chapter Ninety-Seven: Where Did Lang Lang Come?
Feng Yilong's intention was to see what kind of character the surnamed Qin was, and then to see if there was a chance to rob some food and go back.
After seeing the other party's two hundred horsemen calmly set up the formation, he knew that this grain could not be robbed, the other party's men and horses were not a rabble, and this was only a dozen miles away from Mengjiazhuang, and the other party's reinforcements arrived in only two quarters of an hour.
The surname Qin seems to be the number one person, no wonder he can make such a big battle in Lou Fu, and even Huang Congshan and Guan Di Mountain have been served by him.
Now, with a little trick, he can get 2,000 stone of grain from the Du family, and even the Zhang family in Lan County, the Hu family in Dongcun and the Wu family in Jingle are all planted in his hands.
This guy is too bold and reckless, isn't he afraid that the imperial court will send an army to eradicate him?
At that time, he couldn't take away the food he had robbed, so what was the use of robbing it?
Feng Yilong couldn't figure it out, and he didn't bother to waste time here, so with a wave of his hand, he turned around and returned with his people.
"Big brother, shall we just go back like this?"
The hairy boy Feng Shisanying caught up from behind and asked unwillingly.
Feng Yilong shook his head: "This grain can't be robbed, the combat strength of the Guan Emperor army surnamed Qin is not weak, even if it can be robbed, we will inevitably suffer heavy losses, as soon as the other party's reinforcements arrive, we can't even transport the grain, and the gains outweigh the losses." ”
"But...... Big brother, we can't go this trip in vain, otherwise, let's rob the Zhang Hu family or the Jingle Wu family, each of them has to transport a thousand stone of grain to the surnamed Qin, and they will pass through here tomorrow at the latest......"
Feng Yilong interrupted him with a calm face: "Thirteen, have you forgotten what your father said before he died?" ”
Feng Shisanying opened his mouth, and finally lowered his head in frustration and remained silent.
"Before his death, my father said that the rules of the Feng Zhanghu family cannot be broken, whoever breaks the rules first, who dies first, the big family with official status cannot be robbed, and a big deal will be obtained if you grab it, the reason why our Feng family has not declined for a hundred years depends on abiding by the rules, and our father and ancestors used blood to come out of the rules."
Feng Shisanying lowered his head: "Big brother, I know." ”
Feng Yilong leaned the horse over, touched his head, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, eldest brother is not a pedantic person, now that the troubled times have come, some rules no longer work, the eldest brother will give you a way in this troubled world, and in a few years, our Feng family will rely on you." ”
"Big Brother ......"
"Thirteen, from today on, we also have to recruit troops and buy horses, there are not enough people in Fengjia Village, we have to learn from the surname Qin, occupy the fields and grain, recuperate, and see how this troubled world is in a few years."
"Okay, I'll listen to my eldest brother."
……
Mengjiazhuang, on the upper floor of the city.
Looking at the villagers downstairs who were continuously transporting grain into Mengjiazhuang, Qin Chuan gathered his furry collar, and said to Zhao Wu next to him with a smile: "The Du family is finished, you can follow me." ”
Zhao Wu shook his head: "With the Du family's background, just two thousand stone of grain will not make them break their muscles and bones. ”
"What about this?"
Qin Chuan opened an iron box, revealing a box full of IOUs.
Zhao Wu picked up one suspiciously, unfolded it and looked at it carefully, his face suddenly changed slightly, and he hurriedly picked up another pile and unfolded it one by one.
After a long time, he put those IOUs back in the box, and sighed melancholy: "The big steward is clever, without these IOUs, the Du family is not far from decay." ”
"No, I not only want the Du family to decline, but also let the Du family sell their land and move out of Jingyou."
Zhao Wu sighed again: "With the means of the chief steward, this is not a difficult thing. ”
"So, can you follow me now?"
Zhao Wu bowed his head and was silent for a long time before asking: "It's just an ordinary deserter, why does the chief steward have to go to such great lengths to recruit him?" ”
Qin Chuan didn't rush to speak, but turned around, slowly walked to the other side of the gatehouse, pointed to the place where the smoke was rising, and said, "See?" There is a cannon foundry and a gun factory, which is preparing to build artillery and guns that are far superior to the imperial army, and the people who are there, one is called Chen Zhan, and the other is called Li Xuejing, who was originally a subordinate of Sun Yuanhua, the governor of Denglai, and I bought it from Yatouguan for five hundred taels of silver. ”
"The scholar who is arranging for the villagers to move grain, is called Wang Jizong, a person who is annoying, a well-known talent, who I coerced and lured with clever words, and is responsible for helping me manage internal affairs and production."
"The one who is moving around outside, his name is Luo Wentian, Wang Jizong helped me trick me, I want him to help me open up business and recruit talents outside."
"There are also a group of my old subordinates, Luo Da Niu, Li Dingliang, Liu Youzhu, Lao Huang, including Luo Ba, who is standing next to you with a horn bow on his back, with these people, the entire system I constructed can operate normally, towards the ......"
"What a system."
Liao Sangun, who was on the side, suddenly interrupted him, and while picking at the gap between his teeth with a bamboo stick, he said disdainfully: "Isn't it just a boat, what kind of system is it, don't you just want Brother Wu to take a few brothers on your thief ship and help you fight the world?" ”
Qin Chuan smiled indifferently: "That's right, it can be said that it is a ship, I am at the helm, they are the first mate sailors, etc., with them, our ship can ride the wind and waves and march towards our goal." ”
"But now, there are still a few important people missing on this ship, and it is indispensable to sentry spies and spies in marching and fighting, but I am a talent like you who can sentry and spy on military intelligence, and if you get on the ship, this ship can drive more steadily and faster."
"Of course, I'm not in a hurry at this time, and it doesn't hurt for you to think about it for a few more days."
"Including you."
Qin Chuan suddenly rubbed Li Dingguo's head and said, "Follow me, it's much more promising than your cheap godfather." ”
The latter shook off his palm and snorted heavily.
Qin Chuan laughed twice, handed over the iron box to Luo Ba, and then went downstairs by himself, leading a hundred Guan Emperor troops out of Mengjiazhuang to join Luo Daniu.
Luo Daniu and his first camp took off all the face towels, escorted Du Yingguang and the others who were blindfolded, and slowly swam away.
As soon as Qin Chuan arrived, he personally untied the black cloth that was covering Du Yingguang's eyes.
The latter slowly opened his eyes for a long time.
Qin Chuan smiled and said: "Master Du, Qin, as an intermediary, has already given the two thousand stone grain brought by your son to the three cliffs Wang Gang, and Wang Gang handed you over to Qin, and the lives of you and the Du family, two dozen young and strong, can be regarded as saved." ”
Du Yingguang looked around and blurted out: "What about the box of IOUs in my Du family?" ”
Qin Chuan smiled: "You have to go to the three cliffs and ask Wang Gang." ”
Du Yingguang looked at him angrily: "The surname Qin, didn't you say that you would redeem a few of us with two thousand stones of grain and that box of IOUs?" ”
"Master Du, you have to figure it out, it was Wang Gang who robbed you, and it was Wang Gang who negotiated with your son, Qin is just a middleman, what is the matter for you to go up to the three cliffs and ask, okay?"
"You ......"
Du Yingguang was indignant, but he didn't dare to attack.
Qin Chuan cleared his throat and continued: "Master Du, Qin wants to make a deal with you, how about selling all the land of your Du family to Qin?" ”
"Don't you think about it!"
Du Yingguang replied without hesitation.
Qin Chuan didn't make any trouble, but still said patiently: "Master Du, let me tell you this, Dujiazhuang has been razed to the ground, if your Du family wants to continue to establish a foothold in Jingyou, you have to spend a lot of money to repair the house, during this period, it is difficult to guarantee that the thieves will not come to you for trouble." ”
"Moreover, a thousand villagers in Jingyou Town have disappeared, maybe they are thieves, your Du family has no tenants, who will farm for you? Even if you recruit hungry people, I'm afraid that the thieves won't let your tenants come to Lou Fu to farm unharmed, you know, Jingle is a full twenty miles away from Lou Fu, and this road is enough to intercept you several times. ”
"You ......"
Du Yingguang was so angry that he couldn't say a word.
"Master Du, Qin Mou will show you a clear way, sell all the fields, go away, buy thousands of acres of land, recruit a group of hungry people, your Du family can be the same as the local owner of the old wealth, now the war is in chaos, the fields are very cheap, and the good paddy fields in the Jinxi area are only one or two taels of silver."
"If you refuse to sell and only stay in the Silent Wandering...... I can only send you one sentence, there will never be peace. ”
"You ......"
Du Yingguang trembled all over, and pointed directly at him: "Lang Lang Qiankun, aren't you afraid of thunder and thunder?" ”
Qin Chuan smiled coldly: "Hehe, the land of China is full of sorrow, and the people are miserable, where does it come from?" ”
"Even if God opens his eyes, if he wants to split it, he will also split you scum in the fish and meat township, eat people and don't spit out bones, and split you traitors and lackeys who will gnaw the Ming Dynasty to a thousand holes, but still betray the country and collaborate with the enemy."
"Compared to Qin, you are the real thieves, traitors!"
Du Yingguang trembled and broke out in a cold sweat.
