When Zhu Wu and the three of them heard this, they couldn't believe that Shi Jin actually offered to bow down to them.

Shi Jin's family is honest and has a lot of farmland, and he is willing to worship a few of his own people, which is obviously his own climbing. Chen Da and the others were in the excitement of wine again, and they just wanted to nod their heads in agreement.

But Zhu Wu shook his head and said, "Thanks to Shi Dalang for not disliking us for being a thief, we are very grateful." But Shi Dalang is innocent, and he is tired, which is not appropriate! Inappropriate! ”

Hearing Zhu Wu say that he was afraid of affecting Shi Jin, Chen Da and the others suddenly calmed down when they were happy.

Oh, yes! Shi Jin has a great future, and his people say it is good, and they are called to live freely. But he knows his own affairs, but these people are living on the edge of a knife, and they don't know when they will be exterminated by the government, and they will take the head of the person to receive the reward. Where is it worthy to bow to Shi Jin!

Shi Jin immediately pretended to be unhappy and shouted, "We put righteousness first, why bother with those false names." Could it be that you dislike Shi? ”

Zhu Wu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, how dare we dislike it!" ”

Shi Jin said with a smile, "Since this is the case, it is better to choose a day than to hit the day." Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, why don't we and the other four of us sacrifice to heaven and earth in the courtyard today, show their will, become brothers, and pass on a good story.

Although Zhu Wu still wanted to refuse, Shi Jin strongly demanded, plus Zhu Wu and they drank a lot of wine and were on the rise. Half pushed and half went down, and bowed to Shi Jin with incense.

Shi Jin told people to prepare the three sexes, rituals, and other items.

The four of them burned incense and bowed again and swore an oath: "Nian Shi Jin, Zhu Wu, Chen Da, although Yang Chun has different surnames, since they are brothers, they will work together to save the needy; Report to the country, under An Lishu. I don't want to be born on the same day and month of the same year, but I want to die on the same day and month of the same year. The emperor and the queen of heaven, learn from this heart, betray righteousness and ingratitude, and kill heaven and man together! ”

After the oath, at the beginning, Shi Jin pretended to say that he was ranked by age. But how dare Zhu Wu and the others be ahead of Shi Jin, so they can talk about it.

Zhu Wu shouted, "I put righteousness first today, and I am willing to respect Shi Jin as the eldest brother." ”

Chen Da and Yang Chun shouted, "Yes, we are willing to respect Shi Jin as the eldest brother." ”

Shi Jin hurriedly said, "No, I'm a few years weaker." Wouldn't it make people laugh if you have a thick face to be your big brother! ”

Zhu Wu shook his head and said, "Brother Shi's words are wrong, Brother Shi is strong in martial arts, and his family background is solid, and he is even more kind to my three brothers." I don't know how to be ashamed, and being a big brother with a thick face is what makes the heroes of the world laugh. If Brother Shi is humble again, I will have to retire! ”

The three of them held on, Shi Jin pretended to excuse himself, and then accepted it.

At this point, everyone's relationship is close to another level, and everyone returns to the wine table after worshipping and eating more happily.

When they were almost drunk, Shi Jin put down his wine glass and said to Zhu Wu and them, "Three brothers, you respect me as the eldest brother, and the eldest brother can't watch you go astray." It's not a way for you to rob your house like this, Shaohua Mountain is heavily guarded by the imperial court on all sides, and sooner or later it will provoke the encirclement and suppression of the soldiers. ”

When Zhu Wu heard this, he put down his wine glass, sighed and said, "Big brother, you are not an outsider, and you are not afraid to say anything to you." What you're saying is exactly what we're worried about. It is precisely because of this that we dare not rob in all directions, and even more dare not pull people up the mountain. What I'm afraid of is provoking the court! It's just that the thieves are in charge today, and the three of us are tired of being forced by the lawsuit, so we have to go up the mountain and fall into the grass. Otherwise, we don't want to go up the mountain to be bandits, and humiliate our family!"

Shi Jin heard that he was busy and said: "Brother, I have a way to go, although I can't be rich and expensive, but I can also feed seven or eight hundred people up and down Shaohua Mountain." ”

Shi Jin clapped his hands and asked Wang Si to bring them a basket of fine salt.

Zhu Wu and the others saw the basket of fine salt, and asked puzzledly, "Brother, what does this mean?" ”

Shi Jin smiled and said, "So I want to persuade the three leaders to stop robbing houses and selling illicit salt?" ”

Zhu Wu looked at the basket of fine salt and said in surprise, "Brother has a way?" ”

Shi Jin nodded and said, "Well, it just so happens that I have a way to make salt." The three brothers could send someone to sell the fine salt, so that they would not have to rob their homes and ruin their reputations, nor would they have to worry about provoking the officers and soldiers. What do you think! ”

Zhu Wu said happily when he heard this, "Brother Shi, you are really the reborn parents of my three brothers!" Please wait for me! ”

Zhu Wu and the three of them hurriedly stood up and waved towards Shi.

Shi Jin also hurriedly stood up, helped them up and said, "Good brothers, share blessings and difficulties." Come on, drink! ”

"Come, drink!"

In the past, it wasn't that Shi Jin didn't want to make more, but without a bigger backer, Shi Jin didn't dare to make more.

It's like there are 100 people in the market and 60 people can only be supplied with salt. Now the supply is in short supply, and the price is naturally high.

Shi Jin made private salt, which can supply 80 people. However, supply still exceeds demand, and prices can remain high.

The smugglers saw that the price had not changed, the illicit salt was still selling well, their interests had not been harmed, and they would not risk their lives to tear their faces to find trouble with Shi Jin.

The government saw that no one had moved its territory, and no one had announced it, so it basically wouldn't care.

But if Shi Jin made a large amount of illegal salt, it would lead to the supply of 100 people, or even 150 people, in the market.

It's an oversupply and prices are plummeting.

Not to mention those who sell illicit salt, they hate Shi Jin, and the government officials who make a fortune from salt will come to arrest Shi Jin.

But Shi Jin has already thought about it now, anyway, he has already recruited the three people from Shaohua Mountain, and he is not ready to continue to stay in Huayin County.

Then why do you have to hide and hide, do a big ticket, make more money, and go to Liangshan in the future to have silver to use.

After Zhu Wu arranged for a few henchmen to learn the method of making salt from Shi Jin, where did the gang of thieves in Shaohua Mountain still care about robbery, and sent people to the salt mine to dig salt all night and transport it back to make salt.

In this way, from 10,000 catties of salt that can be made in a month to about 50,000 catties of salt in a month.

Then it was sold to the entire Yongxing Military Road through various channels.

His income also increased from 1,000 taels a month to 5,000 or 6,000 taels of silver a month.

Seeing that the white silver was exchanged for gold bars and silver and moved into the treasury of Shijiazhuang, the old housekeeper Shi Fu smiled happily.

After recovering the Shaohua Mountain bandits, Shi Jin thought about going to Tokyo.

Although he still practiced diligently every day, Shi Jin felt that his martial arts had come to a barrier, and no matter how much he practiced, he did not improve.

He wanted to go to Tokyo to find the Zhou Tong that Wang Jin said, hoping that he could give him some guidance.

In the past, it was because I was afraid of missing out on recruiting Shaohuashan Zhu Wu and them, so I didn't dare to leave.

Now that they have been recruited, it is also a matter of concern.

And with the care of the Shaohua Mountain bandits, I believe that there is no one who dares to come to Shijiazhuang to make trouble.

Shi Jin is like taking this opportunity to lie down in Tokyo.

Otherwise, when I go to Liangshan in the future, I don't know when I will be able to go to Tokyo.

Or take advantage of the good time to visit Zhou Tong in Tokyo, hoping that he can give him some guidance.
