Standing on the treetops, Qin Bai looked towards the stockade below, and saw a group of ragged empty-handed mining slaves being escorted into several stone houses, one of whom was in the shape of Li Kang. The windows of the stone houses are all open above, which seems very small, and it would be more accurate to describe them as air vents, which cannot be penetrated at all. When everyone had entered, the door was blocked by a few thick tree trunks, and then the escort took the tools he had received and ran to a courtyard on the other side of the stockade.

There is no difficulty in finding the location of Niu Sanye's private mine. Moreover, in Qin Bai's eyes, the defense of the stockade was quite sparse, and there was only one road leading to the stockade, but there were no light and dark sentinels arranged on the road at all, which even made Qin Bai worry for a while. Especially in this iron ore mining area, magnetite is easy to cause lightning strikes, so the stockade cannot be built on high ground, only in the middle of the mountain. This made it more convenient for Qin Bai's movements, as long as he went around to a high place, he would have enough time to observe carefully

Carefully remembering the location of Li Kang's stone house again, Qin Bai came down from the tree, and when he saw that the sun was already setting in the west, he opened his mouth and ordered: "Gaozi, eat first, and I will sleep first after eating." You count from one to a hundred, count a hundred times. Remember? Wake me up when you're done. We took turns on night duty. ”

"Eh, second brother."

Qin Bai's plan was very simple, he would enter the village in the middle of the night while it was dark, and save people when it was dark. On the one hand, this time is the most sleepy, and the guards are the most lax; On the other hand, it was dark and there was no way to escape. In this mountainous area, there are few people, and if there is no moonlight and starlight at night, you will really lose sight of your fingers.

……

At this time, in the courtyard of the house in the village, Niu Sanye slapped the person in front of him and turned around in a circle, and he scolded: "Dong Xiucai, Lao Tzu didn't let you go to the mine with kindness, but you knew a few broken words." You bastard, the accounts will be miscalculated? Why is there so much less this month? ”

That Dong Xiucai was still very young between his eyebrows, but he was thin and small, his face was full of vegetables, and he didn't dare to speak when he covered his face.

At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and one of his henchmen was smiling: "Third master, there is wine and meat today, and the brothers are waiting for you." I also sent two girls, let's have fun together tonight. ”

Niu Sanye waved his hand: "Get out!" Dong Xiucai hurriedly escaped from the door. Niu Sanye ripped off the gown on his body, revealing his burly upper body and tattoos on his back, which was a picture of a deputy tiger descending the mountain.

"Six sons." Niu Sanye wiped his body with the coat he had taken off, threw it aside, and then put on a single coat, "You can go by yourself." Explain it, don't make it too late, Ming'er still has work to do. ”

When the sixth son heard this, he was a little strange: "Third master, aren't you coming?" ”

"Not in the mood." Niu Sanye sat on the kang sulkingly, "I didn't figure it out, there are a lot of people in the mine, but how can the ore be dug less and less?" Feng Ye had a package ticket in front of him, and he gave at least 200,000 catties per month. What if you can't give it then? "In fact, Niu Sanye knew in his heart that Dong Xiucai's account was not wrong. It's just that he was in an irritable mood and took the opportunity to get angry and scold.

Liuzi immediately said: "This month, we have fought several times with those bastards in Lin Village, and we have delayed a lot of work. But didn't you just recruit a lot of people? Next month will definitely be good. ”

"Hey! It's this month that worries! I heard that the He family that Feng Ye relied on, they were going to open a new iron furnace. If something bad happens to us, I'm afraid our brothers will be crushed! ”

The sixth son thought about it and came up with an idea: "Third master." Then in the past few days, our brothers have also helped to work together, and we will deal with what is in front of us first. You are angry, and your brothers should fight for your face. But you have to make up your mind early in Shanglin Village, they rely on the Wang family, and we can't fight alone. Is it begging for Feng Ye? Let him Zhenwei send some people to help him? ”

Niu Sanye thought about it, and finally shook his head: "I mentioned it, Feng Ye said that he would not interfere in the affairs of the rivers and lakes outside. In addition, it is easy to please God and it is difficult to send God, so whose mine is this mine at that time? ”

"What then?" Liuzi asked.

"I pondered that I should give those who went to the mine a chance. If there is something in the future, let them rush ahead. Whoever is willing to work hard, let him be our brother. If you pay some money to hire a few knife hands, there is no hurdle that you can't overcome. Think back then, didn't a few of us kill it? Laid the foundation of his business in Jingjiazhuang? ”

"That's it, Third Master." The sixth son was also excited, "Back then, we had eleven knives, and the third master was at the forefront, so you stabbed him three times." That one of our brothers hung up the lottery, and they also lay down forty or fifty. As far as the third master was unharmed, your name of the Heavenly Tiger immediately resounded through the rivers and lakes of Shandong. ”

"Hahaha!" Hearing what he was most proud of, Niu Sanye laughed heartily. He was also interested, "Let's go, it's been a long time since I've had a lively time with the brothers, let's all have a few sips together." ”

"That's it, let's not get drunk and never go home."

"It's not okay to get drunk. Forgot that there is business tomorrow? ”

"Eh, look at my memory. Third master, hurry up, just wait for you to pick a girl first. ”

"Leave it to the brethren. After going back, I will bring a message to Cheng Niang, and these two girls will stay for a few more days. Each of them has. ”

"Xie Sanye!"

"Hehe, remember not to be weak, you still have to rely on your brothers to do things, it is best to destroy the group of bastards in Shanglin Village."

"There are three masters, they can't jump for a few days."

"Hahaha......"

……

It was a little nervous, but everything went smoothly over the top. After a short nap, they climbed up to the treetops again, and when they saw that the lights in the house had been extinguished, the brothers immediately went to the side wall of the stockade, and found a low place to climb into it.

There were no patrols in the stockade at all. Only the far gate, beside a burning bonfire, two vague figures dozing off.

There were more places to hide in the stockade, and there were piles of ore, so it was easy to find a hidden corner, and then the two of them sat down cross-legged to rest.

Then there was patience and waiting, waiting for the light to shine. Finally, a trace of fish belly white appeared in the sky, Qin Bai immediately got up, made a gesture to Qin Gao, and the two of them walked quickly in the direction of the stone house.

At this time, Qin Bai really didn't know whether to hate or thank that Third Master Niu in his heart. The care of the miners can no longer be described as amateurish, not only is there not a single guard here, but they don't even bother to use the door lock. Of course, with those few trunks against it, the people inside will definitely not be able to get out. But it's so convenient for people outside to open the door, and even the effort of picking the lock is saved.

Command Qin Gao to move those tree trunks together. With a "squeak", the door was pushed open, flashing into it to cover the door, Qin Bai shouted softly: "Dare, Li Kang, are you there?" ”
