Chapter 3 Invitation (1)
"Xiao Yu, go home and tell my father and my mother, I will go home to live in another month for ten years, this is the two hundred and sixty money I saved, it is the tip that the guests have rewarded me this year, you help me take it back to supplement the family, and by the way, say hello to your mother for me!" And I wish her a speedy recovery! Xiao Si said to Shang Yu and stuffed a small money bag into his hand.
"Got it, thank you for blessing my mother's words, I will definitely bring the money and words. It's not too early, I have to hurry up to Jishantang to get medicine, if I go back late, my mother will worry about me again! I'll go first! Shang Yu took the money bag, turned around and walked out.
At this time, it was already less than three minutes, and if Shang Yu didn't hurry home early, it would probably be dark when he got home.
Watching Shang Yu leave, Xiao Si had a smile on his face, and muttered: "This kid has gone to shit luck, Mr. Lu doesn't want to give him a good leather robe, just from this point makes Mr. Lu value him even more, he was actually accepted as a buddy in the store in advance, and he can come to the warehouse to work at any time, but he is much luckier than me, I only entered the warehouse when I was sixteen." ”
"It's just that Mr. Lu will hire him for this reason, which is too far-fetched? But it's okay, with this kid to accompany me, I won't be tortured by Xiaoyuan's second lady anymore, phew! Why do I think so, Xiao Yu is my good brother, I actually want him to suffer for me! Thinking of this, Xiao Si actually slapped himself lightly in the mouth.
Just as Xiao Si finished beating his mouth, a voice sounded in his ears: "Man, may I ask if this is the Lu Warehouse?" ”
Xiao Si hurriedly turned his head to look, and immediately saw two men standing behind him, and there was a person behind the man who spoke.
The person who spoke was a man dressed in a lustful garment, wearing a religious hat, and although his face was kind, his eyes were shining with a sparkle that made it impossible to look at directly.
"Oh! This boss, this is Lu's Warehouse, I just don't know what you need me to do? "Look at people accurately, this is the ability that Primary 4 has learned in the past two years.
The clothes that the other party was wearing showed that the other party was not a merchant, and looking at the person on this person's back, although his hair was scattered, there was a faint fragrance, he could be sure that it must be a fat powder fragrance, and that person must be a woman on his back.
From these two aspects, he concluded that the other party must have something else, but he still politely called the boss.
"We want to find Mr. Lu Shaobei, the bookkeeper of Lu's warehouse, this brother behind me is his cousin, we are specially visiting him from Jiaoshui Town, a hundred miles away, can you please go in and report it?" The man said slowly, his tone tepid.
"Oh! You are looking for Mr. Lu, can you tell the little one? So I can tell him who is coming for him, do you think? Xiao Si rolled his eyes and asked, he felt a little suspicious about the person who came, but he didn't want to do anything that offended people, ask the name and then go in to report, so as not to be reprimanded by Mr. Lu.
"My name is Guorui, go in and report it!" The man with the woman on his back immediately said, although his voice was not loud, but Xiao Si had a cold war after hearing it.
Xin said: "Although this person's voice is not loud, but it makes people's hearts tremble when they hear it, what is the reason for this?" When did Mr. Lu have this kind of unsightly cousin again? I've never heard of it before. ”
Although he had doubts in his heart, Xiao Si immediately smiled and said, "Please follow me into the outer hall of the warehouse and wait, and I will immediately report to Mr. Lu!" As he spoke, he motioned for the two of them to follow him into the hall.
After hearing this, the two nodded and did not speak, and soon followed Xiao Si into the outer hall and sat on the coffee table in the hall.
"This chick is really not scared, she has fainted and hasn't woken up yet, I'm still a little worried about putting her here!" The man on his back whispered to the man named Guorui at this time.
"Why don't you worry, just kill it and throw it on the street later!" The man named Guorui snorted coldly and said.
"Brother Guorui, be quiet! This woman is the county lord of the Yuan court, and now the emperor of the Yuan court is her father-in-law, if we use her to make some articles, don't you think this is a great plan? The Seeker replied in a whisper.
"Brother Tang, are you saying that we can use her to threaten the emperor of the Yuan Court? It's just a woman, where can there be so much weight? Guorui couldn't help but ask with some puzzlement.
"No, we want to kill this county lord secretly, and then blame the provincial overseer, so that the Yuan court will definitely remove this person, and then our marshal will lead the army to take advantage of it to change generals, when the army is unstable, we can capture this province in one fell swoop, with Quanzhou Mansion, our army will no longer have to worry about trivial matters such as military salaries, rice and grain, and can concentrate on recovering the Han world! Isn't that the perfect choice? The man surnamed Tang replied softly at this time.
The woman was gently placed on a chair by the man surnamed Tang, but she was still unconscious, and there was still a trace of tears on her face.
If Shang Yu was here, he would definitely immediately recognize these two men as the two Red Turban soldiers who rescued the county lord.
"Hmmm! This kind of strategy is good, no wonder the handsome man always praises you! Guorui nodded and said softly.
Xiao Si walked out again from the back after a short time, he walked up to a person named Guorui, bowed and said, "Mr. Guorui, we, Mr. Lu, please enter the two of you immediately to talk." Out of the corner of his eye, he still stole a glance at the woman who was placed in the chair.
"Oh! Then trouble little brother! The man named Guorui immediately replied and gave the man surnamed Tang a look.
The man surnamed Tangdi immediately turned around and walked over to the woman and carried her on her back again.
"Please follow me!" Xiao Si caused a way in front of him as he spoke, and the two followed closely behind the woman with their backs.
When Shang Yu went out of the city, he saw that there were several times more officers and soldiers at the city gate than when he came, all of them were armed with knives and guns, and more than a dozen archers were watching vigilantly at any time, and some people were holding portraits made of paper juan and looking nervously at the people leaving the city, and the vehicles out of the city were strictly searched.
I thought to myself: "It seems that the government has managed the city gate so tightly after searching for those two Red Turban soldiers without success. I just don't know where those two people and the county lord are now? He still knows about the Red Turban Army, the rebels who rebelled against the tyrannical yuan, but he is just a child.
For a young man like him, the officers and soldiers let him out of the city gate easily.
After walking on the road for an hour and a half, when it was about to get dark, Shang Yu returned to Lijia Village at the foot of the mountain.
In Lijia Village, which has hundreds of houses, only a dozen or so households have smoke rising from their roofs at this time. The village is backed by a mountain, and from time to time there are bursts of wolf howls from the mountains.
At this time, all the families were waiting for dinner at home, Shang Yu was carrying the one-tael-seven cents of silver in his arms, holding the yellow paper medicine bag in his hand, he didn't feel tired at all, and he still had joy in his heart.
Walking into the house, he slowly pushed open the door and said loudly: "Mother, I'm back!" ”
But when he saw that the house was full of people, all the people of the village came to his house, the oil lamps on the table flashed, and all the villagers had sad expressions on their faces.
"Kid, you're late! Your mother, she's no longer good! An old man stood in the crowd and said to Shang Yu.
When Shang Yu heard this, the smile on his face disappeared immediately, his mind buzzed, his hand shook, and the medicine bag in his palm immediately fell to the ground.
"Mother! ......" Shang Yu immediately rushed to his father's room......
"Absolutely not! Brother Guorui, my old Lu sells an old man! At present, the marshal of Quanzhou Prefecture can be defeated, but he can't defend it, after the defeat, how can he ensure the traffic and let the merchants pass freely? Under the use of troops, the trade situation of this city is bound to be destroyed, the economic land will become scorched earth, and then the merchants will no longer be able to operate, and they will not be able to pay the money to continue to support the rebels to recover the vast Central Plains! And now this woman must not be killed. After Lu Shaobei heard the plan of the man named Guorui and the man surnamed Tang, he immediately objected.
At this time, they were in a secret room in the middle of the ledger, and the woman was tied up and thrown in the corner, but she was still unconscious.
"The reason for not moving troops is also pertinent, but in the morning, in order to save this woman, we killed officers and soldiers, and exposed our identities, but we didn't expect to save a county lord of the Yuan Court, which can really be described as blind! Brother Lu, you actually said that this woman can't be killed? Can't this county lord be killed? Please tell me the reason, otherwise I will report to the marshal and make you sympathetic to the sin. The man surnamed Tang immediately said with some annoyance.
