After these women arrived here in Zhaojiabao, the temporary nest seemed to be much richer, not only had porridge to drink, mixed flour cakes to eat, from time to time they could eat a little meat, and even drank a bowl of bone broth at night, and there were some vegetables made of wild vegetables dug up by women from the mountains, plus these women's craftsmanship was much better than that of Jin Fuzi, and the taste was also much better than before, for these people, this is undoubtedly a very rich meal.

So these days, everyone's mood has become much better, and they get along well, and when it's time to eat, everyone will line up to receive their own meals, and then get together to eat and chat, even the new people have gradually come out of the grief of losing their loved ones at the beginning.

But on this day, when Xiao Tianjian was busy all day, he queued up to receive his own meal like everyone else, and when he took a chopstick and wild vegetables into his mouth, he immediately frowned, so he immediately greeted Master Jin and said, "Master Jin!" Come here! ”

Jin Fuzi came to Xiao Tianjian at a trot, bowed his head and replied, "Here!" Top dog! What do you command? ”

"Why is this wild vegetable so light? It's less tasteless, how can you eat it? Didn't I say that? Now the big guys practice hard every day, and they sweat a lot, do you need to put a little more salt in this meal? What's going on? As soon as Xiao Tianjian put the chopsticks down, he reprimanded Master Jin.

Jin Fuzi looked embarrassed, nodded yes, and replied in a slurred manner: "If you go back to the plate, the little one also knows to put more salty salt!" It's just that now we're almost out of salt! The small one can only save a little, otherwise, the remaining salty salt will not last for two days! ”

Xiao Tianjian's brows furrowed even more, if it wasn't for what Master Jin said today, he really ignored this matter, just thinking about making food, but forgot to collect more salt to supplement the needs, the current world is not as stable as the era, if you have money, you can buy salt, not to mention the chaos, the price of salt alone is difficult for ordinary people to afford, and now they are not short of money, but if you want to buy salt, you don't want to buy this thing if you don't go to the town or the county.

Eating without salt is a big problem for them, Xiao Tianjian is training his subordinates, everyone has a lot of exercise every day, and now the weather is gradually starting to warm up, everyone sweats a lot during the exercise, and the demand for salt will be relatively large, and the direct result of eating without salt is that people will be weak, dizzy, and will have muscle spasms in serious cases, and even kill people.

Therefore, this problem is by no means a trivial problem, and it must be solved as soon as possible.

When Xiao Tianjian was eating, he gathered all his subordinates to his side and told everyone about their current lack of salt, asking everyone to think of a way to see how to get enough salt.

A group of subordinates are gossiping with opinions, but they mainly go to the township or county town on weekdays to exchange things for some salt to eat, and some people propose to simply grab the big households, and the big households will definitely have a lot of salt, but Xiao Tianjian now thinks that it is better to use the training of these subordinates first, and then take them out to do things, and reduce some losses as much as possible.

In the end, Jin Fuzi reluctantly expressed an opinion, that is, to send people to the nearest township or county town in Huangyang County to buy some salt, and by the way, sell the cattle they don't need now.

When they came back from Zhaojiabao, they got back more than a dozen cattle, and now they have no land to cultivate, and they have to allocate people to herd cattle, although they don't consume much food, but it's not a way to raise them like this.

Originally, Xiao Tianjian wanted to kill and eat one by one, but he didn't expect to attract unanimous opposition from everyone, and then Xiao Tianjian pondered for a while, and realized that it was illegal to kill cattle in ancient times, and it was necessary to have the permission of the government to plough cattle, and when they couldn't work, they could only be handed over to the butcher for slaughter, and these people used to be farmers, and they had an innate feeling for ploughing cattle, and felt that killing cattle was a very excessive thing, so no one wanted to kill these ploughing cattle.

Xiao Tianjian is really a little funny about everyone's opposition to the idea of killing cattle, they are all bandits now, and they are still thinking about bullshit and killing cattle is illegal, the officers and soldiers have been killed, what do you care about this!

So Xiao Tianjian didn't care whether they wanted to or not, he insisted on keeping these cattle, and after solving the problem of salt, he slaughtered them and ate meat.

For Xiao Tianjian's order, although everyone was reluctant, no one dared to insist on opposing opinions, after all, after the cow was killed, the meat still had to be eaten by them, so having meat to eat was a great blessing in this year, and no one would think it was bad to eat meat.

After discussing with everyone, Xiao Tianjian finally decided to let Jin Fuzi, Shi Ran and Feng Gouzi go out for a run, and buy some salt in the nearest place to come back, the reason why the two of them were chosen is because Jin Fuzi was originally a bookkeeper before, and he had some experience in dealing with businessmen, and it seemed that he would not be suspicious of others, so it was more convenient to do this, and Shi Ran was more calm after Xiao Tianjian's observation during this time, and Feng Gouzi was the most familiar in this area. It should be best for the three of them to do this.

After deciding on this matter, Xiao Tianjian asked Jin Fuzi and the three of them to bring twenty taels of silver and a donkey to go out of the mountain to do this matter, and Xiao Tianjian also took his subordinates to continue to practice hard in the mountain.

But things often don't go as expected, just two and a half days after Jin Fuzi and the three of them went out, Shi Ran and Feng Gouzi ran back in embarrassment, and as soon as they returned to the lair, they knelt in front of Xiao Tianjian and asked Xiao Tianjian for their guilt.

Xiao Tianjian heard that only the two of them came back, so he was secretly taken aback, and quickly summoned them to the front and asked what happened, why did the two of them come back, and why didn't Master Jin come back?

Shi Ran angrily pointed at Feng Gouzi and replied to Xiao Tianjian: "Hold the plate!" It's all this fight, after the three of the little ones went out of the mountain, they went straight to Nanfang Town, and nothing happened on the road, but this guy was eventful, and when he met an acquaintance, he was close to it, and he showed others how he used to be! We didn't go to Nanfang Town, but we were blocked by dozens of poles, they robbed us of the silver we used to buy salt, not to mention, but also detained Master Jin, put the two of us back, and said let us take a hundred taels of silver to ransom people, otherwise, we will kill Master Jin! ”

Feng Gouzi was so frightened at this moment that his face was pale, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed again and again to confess, and hurriedly argued: "Hold the plate, this matter is not a small complaint!" The little one was on the road, and he met an acquaintance, who had drunk with the little one before, and the little one didn't expect him to do this too, and he was actually interested in us seeing money, and it turned out that this happened! The palm of the plate is to be the little one! ”

Xiao Tianjian suddenly became angry at this moment, he was not angry with Feng Gouzi, but he didn't expect that the first time he sent someone out to do something, he came out of this file, anyway, they also did this business, they would actually be blacked out, and they would kidnap his people, and they actually wanted some bullshit ransom, this thing of tying meat tickets is often done like them, but at least it is necessary to divide people! You can't be so immoral, even the people who travel with you are tied up!

"Let's not talk about this for now, is it Feng Gouzi's responsibility, let's not talk about it for the time being, what is the origin of robbing your pole, do you know? And when they rob you, will you show them the foundation? Xiao Tianjian interrupted their argument and asked them sharply.

Shi Ran saw that Xiao Tianjian was furious, so he closed his mouth, but Feng Gouzi hurriedly replied: "If you return to the plate, the little ones said it!" When the little one first ran into that acquaintance, he lied to him that the little one was now doing business with others, and then after they robbed us, the little one showed them a sign and said that we are doing this too! But their palms didn't buy our accounts at all, they still robbed our silver, and the donkey was also robbed by them, and they also detained Master Jin, saying that if they didn't ransom people with silver, they would be Master Jin!

The small one has heard that they are in charge of the plate, their surname is Sha, called Sha Erbao, is a person from the area of Huangyang County, I used to hear that this Sha Erbao is also a big family, but I didn't expect him to do this now, the small one sees that he has at least seventy or eighty subordinates, when we leave, his subordinates privately call him Sha Potian, presumably the nickname of Sha Erbao! ”

After listening to Feng Gouzi's words, Shi Ran also continued: "Feng Gouzi's words are true, on the way back, the little ones also probed the tone of a few guys who escorted us, and they told me that they were in the area of Nanfang Town, no one didn't know how powerful they were, let us be careful, it is best to send the silver honestly, but there are not too many of them, according to their own boasting, that is, about eighty people!" ”

Xiao Tianjian was angry enough, and his heart said that the surname Sha was too fucking arrogant, the well water on both sides of them did not violate the river water, and they just wanted to buy some salt on their side, and they actually wanted to rob it, it seems that this bandit may not be a goddamn morality.

"Then do they say where we should go and pay the money for ransom?" Xiao Tianjian then asked.

"That's it! Nasha Erbao said, let us take the silver, and go to the mountain temple north of Nanfang Town to redeem people within three days, and said that it will not be waiting for the corpse of Master Jin! Shi Ran hurriedly replied.

"Bastard! The tiger is not powerful, and we are sick cats! Since he dares to tie up our people, then if we pretend to be grandchildren, we won't be able to mix up in the future! All assembled! Xiao Tianjian laughed angrily, turned around and shouted.

With Xiao Tianjian's roar, his subordinates immediately swarmed over and quickly lined up in two rows in front of him.

"Brethren! Today, someone bullied us, someone robbed us of the silver we used to buy salt, and tied up Jin Fuzi's meat ticket, asking us to use the silver to ransom people! This is a provocation to us, what do you say we should do? Xiao Tianjian stood at the front of the queue angrily, shouting at the top of his throat and asking the gang of people under him.
