The yard is not small, and there are many houses in the courtyard, all of which are closed and guarded. Those who know each other and acquaintances naturally talk when they see each other.

When the bandits came down from the mountain, they were very quiet, shouting and shouting, and they had already alarmed the bandits guarding the granary, and when Yang Congyi and Brother Fu came to the courtyard later, they saw that the leader of the bandits guarding the grain arrived later.

The leader of the bandits, with a fat head and big ears, and a series of horizontal meat, walked up, and the flesh on his face was shaking.

Brother Fu told Yang Congyi that this was the brother-in-law snatched by the big boss.

I heard him say on the road before, the big boss robbed a girl to go up the mountain, when she first came, the girl still had to live or die, making a lot of noise, and followed the leader for a few days to obey, sticking to the big boss before and after, for fear of leaving for a while. It didn't take long for a banquet to be held, and she was accepted by the big boss as the lady of the village. After that, the whole family went up the mountain. When this brother-in-law just went up the mountain, he was as thin as a little chicken, and he was fat and undignified within two years, and they all said that he had eaten all the meat on the mountain.

Looking at his current appearance, to say the least, there are three hundred catties, and the bandits are probably right, maybe most of the meat on the mountain is really eaten by him.

I saw the fat man slowly walk to the granary, look at the bandits who were resting and laughing, and then raised his head and shouted: "Left village, right village, front village, the leaders are here." "It's completely his biggest appearance here, which makes people look very unpleasant.

Yang Congyi was beside Brother Fu and heard him scolding in a low voice: "Pretend to be your mother's big-tailed wolf." sighed secretly, it can be seen that nepotism, no matter where it is, no matter when, is not welcomed.

After scolding, Brother Fu stepped forward and greeted the fat man with a smile: "Brother Ping, I'm here." The smiling face was full of flowers, and Yang Congyi was secretly funny, these people are all talents.

The brother-in-law looked at Brother Fu and said, "Ah Fu, why is it you every time, and you are not tired of being so far away?" ”

Brother Fu said with a smile: "What did Brother Ping say, this is the food you have worked hard to grow for us to eat and drink, I just came to move it, compare with you, where can this be considered tired, if you want to say tired, you are really tired, you are the hero." ”

The brother-in-law was happy to hear this, raised his fat palm, patted Brother Fu's shoulder, and said, "Do a good job, your benefits will be indispensable in the future." ”

Brother Fu nodded yes, and as soon as he turned his head, his face turned dark, and he spat out a mouthful of phlegm on the ground.

I heard my brother-in-law shout again: "Where is Zuozhai and the debtor, hurry up." ”

I saw a big man thief lazily step forward and said, "Brother Ping, I'm here early." ”

The brother-in-law frowned and said, "You don't make a sound when you come." ”

The brother-in-law's tone was not good, and the bandit listened to him, did not refute him, did not pay attention to him, and went to talk to the others.

Yang Congyi stepped forward and said loudly to his brother-in-law: "Yang Lao Wu of Qianzhai, bring your brothers to carry grain." ”

The brother-in-law was snubbed by the bandit just now, and he was unhappy, and when he heard Yang Congyi so loudly, he immediately started to come over, only to hear him reprimand loudly: "Move grain, move grain, why are you so loud, when I am deaf." ”

Yang Congyi smiled: "There are too many people here, it's not that I'm afraid you won't hear it." ”

As soon as he saw the smiling face, the brother-in-law's anger disappeared a lot, and he only listened to him say without annoyance: "Don't talk nonsense, how many people have come to your front village, a hundred stone of grain, have you finished moving?" ”

Yang Congyi said with a smile: "There are few people in the front village, and there are twelve of them." ”

The brother-in-law said, "Then you will move for two more days." You all listen, count the villages in a while, even if the settlement is clear, I don't care. If you like to move, you can move for as long as you like, and don't come to me again if you lose it. Then he turned and walked towards a house, and when he reached the door, he took out a bunch of keys and opened the door.

"Fifty quintals of Zuozhai, let's be clear."

As soon as the brother-in-law shouted, a bandit immediately entered the house to count.

The brother-in-law came to the door next to him again, opened the door, and said in a loud voice: "Zuozhai, fifty dans." ”

Immediately another bandit went to count.

In this way, three rooms were opened, and fifty quintals of grain were stored in each room, all of which were rations from Zuozhai, a total of one hundred and fifty quintals.

Next is the right village, the right village also opened three rooms, two hundred tons of rations, Brother Fu personally entered, one room by one room points. After confirmation, it was the turn of Houzhai.

I saw that my brother-in-law opened two rooms in the last few locked rooms, and said loudly: "One hundred quintals in the front village, come and count." ”

The catchers still have the knowledge to count, and they helped Yang Congyi enter the room to count, Yang Congyi entered one room, and they entered another.

The grain in the room is not very neat, it is all packed in a sack, and it is placed on the ground, Yang Congyi picked up a bag casually, it is not very heavy, and there are still 100 catties. A little counting, no more, no less, exactly fifty bags.

After counting in the other room, it is naturally fifty bags, and one hundred quintals in two rooms, no more, no less.

After the brother-in-law confirmed the amount of grain with Sanzhai and asked them to sign the account book, even if the two sides finished the delivery, the rest would be left alone, pat his ass and leave.

After the food was distributed, the bandits immediately got busy, this was their work, and they had to be moved at any time, so without waiting for the arrangement, each person carried a sack and left.

Yang Congyi was a little difficult, there were only twelve of them, there were 100 loads of grain, and they couldn't move it in four days, and the brother-in-law's people didn't guard the granary, although it was in the bandits' den, it was not guaranteed that no one would make it bad, and he had to leave someone to watch.

Seeing that Brother Fu hadn't left yet, Yang Congyi hurried over, leaned in and asked, "Brother Fu, you have a lot of grain in your right village, how can you move back?" ”

Brother Fu smiled: "Move slowly, what's the hurry." It will take three or five days to move back. "Asked in vain.

Yang Congyi shouted to the catchers: "How to get so much food, I can only run once in half a day, I already have news, we don't have so much time." ”

There is no good way to catch them, they are all mountain roads, no cars and horses, and some places can only be walked by people, so they can only carry it back.

Of course, the best way is to call more people, but now there is no way, so I can only go back first.

One person was chosen to stay, guarding the granary, Yang Congyi and the others each resisted a bag of grain, and followed the large army.

The sack of more than 100 catties is actually not heavy for them, but the key is that the road is long, and it will be dark when they go back this time.

Walk all the way and rest all the way, there is a lot of narrow road, only one person can pass, the front does not go, the back can not go, and can not put the sack on the ground to rest, can only carry the sack, etc., at this time, the scolding is shocking. It's like a traffic jam, scolding in the back, and the front is blocked, unless it's not blocked.

The most tired to go up the mountain, the most blocked is also the worst, a turn over the mountain beam, down the mountain like the wind, the sun has not set, it is to the place where the pig is raised in the valley, the rest of the distance, just climb the mountain, an hour is more than enough. So the army rested here for a while, and someone went to bring back a few buckets of water.

Yang Congyi had an idea at this time, what a chance, if the grain is here and a few catches are left here, it will be much more convenient to contact the pig bandits, the key is not to show traces. The more he thought about it, the more feasible he felt, and he could even put the grain in the pig farm, put it in the enclosure, and come into direct contact with the pig bandits.

After thinking about it secretly for a while, and finding that this idea was completely feasible, Yang Congyi's heart was hot, and he was about to jump up with excitement.

In the second half of the way, I was in a happy mood, and I climbed a mountain, but I didn't feel tired.

As soon as the grain was handed over to the warehouse, Yang Congyi went to the residence of the catchers and told them the news he had inquired about. The catchers also heard a lot of news, checked each other, and even confirmed that a few pigs were born out of Huaining Prison at the beginning of the year, and two of them even knew their names, which was really rare good news.

Yang Congyi took out the list of escaped prisoners and looked at it, and sure enough, he saw the two names on it.

Yang Congyi was happy in his heart, but he still warned everyone not to get carried away, finding the fugitives was only the first step, and how to catch them back from the bandits' den was the most difficult. Then he told the catchers of his plan, starting tomorrow, the grain will not be moved first, they will all go around the pig farm, some people will move the grain from the granary to the top of the mountain, and the other part will be moved from the top of the mountain to the pig farm, first all of them will be placed in the pig farm, where will the people be guarded, the important thing is to inquire about the situation of the fugitives, see how many they are, what are their names, and it is best to have direct contact without revealing their identities.

The plan is simple, and the catchers will understand it as soon as they hear it. Some of those fugitives were caught by them personally, some were not, and they themselves could not remember clearly, so in order to prevent them from being recognized by the fugitives, they finally chose to enter the yamen after a year, and let him stay in the pig farm to look at the grain and inquire about the situation. These fast catchers who go up the mountain are all selected, and they are quite clever, so there is naturally no problem in inquiring about some news, but the key is that the bandits have no sense of confidentiality, and there is no need for confidentiality.

The next day according to the plan, the 12 people who carried the grain in the front village were divided into four groups, one looked at the granary, one was in the pig farm, five carried the grain up the mountain, five moved the grain down the mountain, the road was more and more relaxed, moved a way, rested a journey, and the body could eat.

The left and right villages saw that they moved easily, and on the third day, they also began to learn the pre-school village, all of them were circling in the pig farm, and the pig farm was regarded as the second granary, and the pig farm was also unprecedentedly lively.

After all the grain was moved from the granary to the pig farm, the situation of several fugitives was also figured out. There are four in total, all of whom escaped from Huaining Prison at the beginning of the year, but they don't know what they committed exactly. The next question is how to get them down the mountain, which is a bit difficult, because it is impossible to rob them hard, unless they don't die, even if they don't die, they may not be able to snatch people down the mountain.

Yang Congyi decided to contact these fugitives in person, Huaining's fugitives should not know him, the key is that he has never been a fast catcher in Huaining, so he doesn't need to worry about his identity being exposed.

But before he could start making contact with the fugitives, there was a problem with food.

The grain keeper told him that he had accidentally discovered that there was a bag of grain adulterated, and that the sack was actually rice husk and sand, because the weight was the same, and he didn't notice it when he moved it back.
