Chapter 201: Hidden Crisis
According to the agreement between Zhao Dahai and the wealthy merchant gentry in Mizhi, Zhao Dahai took the people down the mountain, and intercepted a quite rich caravan on the main road adjacent to the cottage.
The caravan's big cars and small cars were discharged far away, but in addition to the car owner, there was only one shopkeeper, and there was not even a bodyguard.
So, Zhao Dahai, as the first time he joined this great bandit profession, shouted resolutely and arrogantly: "This road is my drive-" unceremoniously and without hesitation intercepted these materials.
When the car owners saw that the bandits were strong, they dropped their whips and shouted, and left in a hurry.
These materials include: 200 stone of salt, 2,000 stone of grain, 500 horses of cloth, and 25,000 catties of fine iron.
The opening is a good one.
When Zhao Dahai intercepted these materials with great power, the shopkeeper did not run, just waited for Zhao Dahai to check, and waited for Zhao Dahai to take the horsewhip and stare at the shopkeeper with a black face and roar angrily: "Why are the materials half and not all the agreed?" ”
The shopkeeper stepped forward with a smile and said: "According to the rules, redeeming the kidnapping ticket is also to hand over the person with one hand and pay the money with the other, but the rule of paying the money is to only pay half of the money, otherwise, we will give you all the money, and as a result, you tore up the ticket for my people, so wouldn't I be empty of people and money?" ”
Zhao Dahai could only stare at the time and had nothing to say, if he was fighting and killing, mixing in the officialdom, then he would definitely not say that he was like a fish in water, but he could also understand half of it, but this underworld handover, he really didn't know anything, and he couldn't even reach the little understanding of his stupid brother, and at that time it made the family speechless for a while.
"So what do you say you should do?" However, in fact, now Zhao Dahai is already red and warm when he sees this big car, which is enough for him to show off his power in front of those brothers in the cottage.
"Look, you only got those things by fighting life and death, of course, except for my stupid brother's plan to take Zhangjiabao, the rest is that I, Zhao Dahai, not only did I get the most important materials without much effort, is that still the best I can on the cottage?"
The shopkeeper saw that Zhao Dahai's brothers began to collect materials happily, so he pulled Zhao Dahai aside with a smile, saying that he was checking the number of materials, but when no one was around, he quietly handed something to Zhao Dahai in his sleeve.
Zhao Dahai also knew the twists and turns between the officialdom and businessmen, so he took it quietly, but as soon as he started it, although the object was not big, he felt that his hand was extremely warm, and there was a burst of coolness in his hand.
Zhao Dahai has also made friends from all over the world, and he has also seen some objects in the world, and he couldn't help but be shocked at that time, this is a big deal.
Standing on the top of the slope on a high place, staring at the bottom of the mountain without blinking, Zhao Dahai said lightly: "The shopkeeper is generous, but I don't know what I need Zhao Dahai to do?" ”
The shopkeeper was busy and humbly said: "In fact, the big boss also knows that now the people are boiling everywhere, and the road is quite unclean, that is, these things are also left after we are ten percent, when we made an appointment with the adults to save our lives, now it seems that the cost is indeed too high, is it still ask Lord Zhao to give a postponement?" ”
Zhao Dahai's eyes didn't move, but he snorted in his nose, but said in his heart: "It's not that my life is important at the beginning, so I am so generous, but I am just a lion with a big mouth, and I also laid the foundation for you to cross the river and tear down the bridge today, and now you are out of the cage and your life is worry-free, and at this time you will start to repay the debt, but this is too little."
This life of sullen humming represents Zhao Dahai's dissatisfaction.
The shopkeeper saved it at the moment, and hurriedly compensated carefully: "Of course, these big cars can also be used in the cottage, and how about the right to compensate for some of them?" ”
Zhao Dahai still kept silent with a gloomy face, but he was already laughing in his heart.
The shopkeeper saw that Zhao Dahai was still holding it, so he smiled cautiously again: "When the little one came, all the gentry were grateful for the grace of Lord Zhao's life, and also thanked the virtue of Woniu Mountain to rescue your property, so everyone is still raising the needs of the cottage in various places, and it will be shipped again in the near future." ”
Zhao Dahai said in his heart, don't you want to make another fifty percent of the profits? Profiteers, they can't be relied on at any time, if they don't hold their life and death documents, they may have to bargain with themselves.
The shopkeeper looked left and right at this time, with a smile on his face but a look of wanting to speak and stopping, Zhao Dahai ignored it, and quietly said to the two cautious guards behind him: "Go, go over and supervise those boys, don't spoil things." ”
The two guards glanced at each other and walked away.
When the two guards walked away, Zhao Dahai closed his mouth and waited for the shopkeeper's words.
The shopkeeper looked left and right, and then carefully took out a letter in his bosom and handed it over. "Lord Zhao, this is your old friend Master Qian, now the Yan'an Governor's Mansion is walking on the painting of the book that Lord Qian gave you, please Lord Zhao-"
Zhao Dahai still held his hands behind his back and didn't pick up the book, but just interrupted the shopkeeper's words and said: "The officials and bandits are different, and I don't know how to read, so you should take back that thing." ”
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and understood the reason, in ancient times, especially the Great Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, strictly guarded against martial artists, strictly forbade martial artists to read, military men can only be promoted if they are illiterate by typing, and military men and military men are willing to degenerate and not learn literature and ink.
Besides, this Zhao Dahai has already gone up the mountain to be a thief, and took this hot book, if it is seen by his accomplices, it will be a fateful end, and he will not hand it over at the moment, and carefully put the book in his arms.
It seems that this Zhao Dahai is an iron-hearted thief, and it seems that the errand that Qian Zan has explained is hopeless.
When the shopkeeper was disappointed, Zhao Dahai suddenly said with his hands behind his back: "I don't know what Master Qian said in his book." ”
This abrupt sentence made the shopkeeper stunned, and then he was ecstatic in his heart, and hurriedly whispered: "Lord Qian said, you Lord Zhao is tired of the emperor's grace, and hereditary hundreds of households, I want to be wronged as a post station official I really wronged Lord Zhao, this time from the thief is Lord Zhao is righteous, for the Zhang family to get ahead, and the second is to be forced to be coerced by Lu Shi's thief, but it is understandable, but after all, the pole is a pole, and the momentary gain is just a clown who jumps the beam, but it can't last long, and the Huanghuang Daming is the orthodox royal road." ”
When he said this, the shopkeeper cautiously peeked at Zhao Dahai's color expression, but saw that Zhao Dahai was expressionless in front of his eyes, so he swallowed his mouth and continued to say cautiously: "Now the Manmeng Tartar is buckled, it is the imperial court that urgently uses a skilled hero like Lord Zhao to serve his life, if Lord Zhao has the heart to serve the court, Lord Qian is willing to run at the governor's office, for Lord Zhao to ask for the post of general of the border army, and go to the frontier to show the ambition in Lord Zhao's chest, in this way, you can repay the favor of the emperor, and comfort the spirit of your ancestors, can also be exchanged for a glorious and wealthy wife, wouldn't you be happy in life? ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the shopkeeper didn't realize that his palms were sweaty, and he quietly raised his eyes again, and Zhao Dahai was still standing there expressionless without saying a word.
The two of them stood silently in the slowly starting cold wind.
Just when the shopkeeper was worried, Zhao Dahai suddenly said loudly: "You blind things, what are you still doing there?" Are you blinded by this little thing? It's short-sighted, see that I don't chop up your pickled things. ”
The shopkeeper was frightened at that time, trembling and kneeling, kowtowing again and again to spare his life, but for a long time he didn't see Zhao Dahai's movement, let alone feel the sword and axe, flowing like water in cold sweat, quietly raised his head, but saw that Zhao Dahai had already strode down the mountain, and scolded those brothers to tidy up the convoy.
The shopkeeper stood up quietly and wiped the cold sweat on his face, and when the little north wind blew, his back was even colder, and the cold sweat had soaked his clothes.
Zhao Dahai commanded his brothers to tidy up the convoy, and those brothers happily raised their horsewhips one by one to become temporary car owners, and drove back to the mountain to report the good news.
Zhao Dahai urged the war horse, and the war horse raised his head and tail and ran to the shopkeeper on the hillside who was still ignorant, and threw the document written by the gentry to the shopkeeper, and said loudly: "Today, the king is happy, return your life and death documents, and go back to tell those gentry and businessmen that the things that my Black Tiger Army needs can only be transported up the mountain in the future, and there is no problem with the price." ”
"Yes, yes, I will definitely bring it if Lord Zhao speaks." The shopkeeper nodded like a pecking rice, and finally asked in a whisper, "Lord Zhao, then Lord Qian, I should-"
"Go tell the gentry and merchants." Zhao Dahai stopped him at that time and said: "Sulfur manganese nitrate iron will be shipped as soon as possible, and I won't want to ship it after a while, so the deal will not be done." ”
Without waiting for the shopkeeper to answer, he went down with a whip, and the war horse suffered pain, and rose up and raised his hooves and went away. Only the shopkeeper was left stunned in the billowing smoke and dust raised by the war horse.
Zhao Dahai returned to the mountain with the "looted" materials, and was immediately welcomed by the men, women and children of the cottage, and even those soldiers who were training intensively stopped the assassination in their hands and cheered and saluted Zhao Dahai.
When Lu Shi was brought in to inspect, he was full of praise for Zhao Dahai's exploits, the food was still second, the 200 stone salt was not bought if there was money in the cottage, and 20,000 catties of refined iron solved the big problem of the craftsman camp that was about to break off in the cottage, this time, Zhao Blacksmith would no longer worry about the raw materials, and the cottage could once again transfer manpower to speed up the progress of weapon building, and arm all the soldiers before the overall transfer.
The most important thing is the attached fifty-trailer cart, which is exactly what the cottage will need most in the future, well, really good.
Lu Shi did not hesitate to praise Zhao Dahai with his face up, Guo Tianxing even raised his thumbs high, and the third uncle decided to put the best wine in the cottage to Zhao Dahai in two jars, so that Zhao Dahai could have a good drink.
Zhao Dahai grinned and bowed his hand to the brothers and the third uncle: "Thank you, thank you, in fact, this is still my soft-heartedness, or I won't knock them to death." ”
Lu Shi said again and again: "That's it, the dog who knocked on the bamboo pole will really fight with us if he jumps off the wall in a hurry, it will be counterproductive, Brother Zhao is doing the fire number, look, who dares to say that my brother Zhao is brave and unscrupulous?" Hahaha. ”
Zhao Dahai was even more proud.
