Chapter 301: Showing Off Your Wealth
What has Luo Xiaoshan relied on for so many years to maintain, that is, he relied on kidnapping tickets and smashing kilns to do some bandit work, and he was more restrained in front of Qi Rui and them, and when he received an order to let them loot the horse bandits, they all rushed to scream with excitement.
Tong Chan and Tong Lu personally took five hundred ghost dragon iron horsemen and chased the horse bandits in the direction provided by Tong Xi.
When the rescued group saw that the four trucks had knocked the bandits away as soon as they appeared, and the fire was so fierce, the four cars and eight machine guns rushed over to thank them.
Seeing that they were all Han Chinese, Qi Rui asked, "I thought you were a caravan!" ”
"We didn't bring anything! But we are indeed merchants! This time, we came to purchase in a group. A middle-aged chubby man said,
"Oh! Listening to the accent, you seem to be from the mainland? Qi Rui asked,
"That's right! We are indeed from the mainland, what are you doing here? ”
"My family has opened a new tannery, and I came to the desert to buy some sheepskins!"
"Oh! Is this your first time here? ”
"Yes! For the first time! Do you know a fur supplier? Qi Rui asked,
"Really! But you're not in the right season! ”
"Oh!? Does it still depend on the season to collect the skin? "Qi Rui didn't understand it in the first place, so he didn't pretend at all,
"Of course!"
"I don't understand! I thought I'd get it whenever I came! ”
"I don't know if you're still doing this?" Someone asked strangely,
"I used to make clothing, but recently I have added leather clothing and shoes manufacturing, but it is too expensive to buy leather directly from others, so I plan to buy it myself! This time I came mainly for the sake of the trip. Qi Rui said,
"Why don't you come with us! If you come across a fur supplier, I'll introduce it to you! The middle-aged man was worried that the horse bandits would come back to retaliate, so he wanted to be safer with Qi Rui and them.
"Where are you going?" Qi Rui asked,
"Kashgar!"
"Is there a sheepskin over there?"
"Absolutely! And there are leather of any quality! The middle-aged man flickered,
"That's good! Let's go together! Qi Rui agreed very realistically,
"Let's go! Today we will stay overnight in Turpan, and we would like to thank you for saving your life! The middle-aged man said,
"I'm also planning to go to Turpan to eat grapes!"
"It's a good time for you to come, it's a good season to eat grapes and cantaloupe!"
"Haha! Come! Get in our car! Qi Rui said hospitablely,
"You're welcome!" A few merchants let the fruit army follow on horseback, and they all got into the wagons.
Qi Rui asked Tong Xi to inform Tong Chan and Tong Lu that no matter how much money they robbed today, they would send someone to send it, and he would show off his wealth tonight.
Because Luo Junnan opened Tucheng mainly to receive rich people, showing off his wealth in front of these merchants and escort teams would definitely attract Luo Junnan's attention, so it should be much easier to enter Tucheng.
Tong Lu and Tong Chan took five hundred iron horsemen to find them along the hoof prints left by the horse bandits, and the horse bandits didn't see anyone chasing them at first, and thought that it would be fine, but they didn't want hundreds of horses to suddenly appear behind them and shoot directly.
There weren't many horse bandits left, but they were basically wiped out by a single charge of the Ghost Snake Iron Cavalry, leaving a few who surrendered and didn't kill them in order to ask where their nest was.
After a simple interrogation, Tong Lu and Tong Chan escorted a few horse bandits directly to the horse bandits' den, which is a small cottage, and there are not many horse bandits in it, so they robbed thousands of oceans and dozens of horses after going in and looting.
But because they learned that Qi Rui wanted money, Tong Chan and Tong Lu also sent the money they brought, and together there were less than 20,000 oceans, of which 10,000 oceans were still silver tickets for 'Rishengchang' (the first private ticket number at that time).
Qi Rui still has some on him, enough for him to toss today, in fact, thousands of oceans are enough, because at that time, a piece of ocean could buy a load of rice, a piece of ocean in the late Republic of China could also buy a load of grain, and five oceans could buy a cow, so thousands of oceans were a huge amount of money at that time.
At the banquet, Qi Rui asked to find a beautiful Uyghur girl to dance, and it was to give a reward in advance, fortunately, the Uyghur girl usually likes to dance, and now someone gives more money than they have earned by planting grapes for a year, knowing that some rich Han people came, so not only danced for them, but also gave them the best fruits and the most sumptuous meals.
Qi Rui was very happy to keep rewarding, he looked like a complete loser, those businessmen saw that he had brought so much cash alone, and then they didn't compete with him to pay.
Finally, after the banquet, Qi Rui also made a pervert and asked how much money the girl here needed to buy it, but if it wasn't for Guo Qu and their protection, they would have to be beaten.
Of course, this is all Qi Rui's pretend, which is to make these merchants and the escort Guo Jun think that he is a squirrel, and he has a lot of oceans and silver tickets on him.
This trick is really good, Luo Junnan received the news that night, I heard that the army escorting the merchant met a loser who collected skins, Luo Junnan immediately called back and asked them to take him to Tucheng together, this is the God of Wealth sent to the door.
Qi Rui was helped back to the inn by Tong Xi and Long Lan, and when he closed the door, Long Lan smiled: "I didn't expect my big brother Qi to pretend to be a loser, and he looks like a gentleman!" ”
"Lan'er, didn't I go to Tucheng?" Qi Rui argued,
"I also fell in love with the most beautiful Uyghur girl!" Tong Xi smiled,
"How can you be beautiful!" Qi Rui flattered,
"Brother Qi! These Uyghur girls are so beautiful dancing! The lamb pilaf they caught was also delicious! Of course, Tong Xi knew that Qi Rui was not that kind of person, and patted his round stomach and said,
"It's really delicious! If you love to eat, you should eat it often in the future, because the further west you go, the more Uyghurs there are, so what roasted whole lamb and mutton pilaf should be enough! Qi Rui said,
"That's great! I like it! Tong Xi ate until he was full, also because they didn't have a good meal these days.
"Brother Qi, why did you let the two of us sleep in the same room with you?" Tong Xi saw this and asked on a big bed,
"You two sleep on the bed, and I sleep on the floor! Don't think about it! "Qi Rui wants to be a gentleman and a loser, how can he do without a woman by his side,
"Oh! I know, Sister Long Lan and I are your women now, right? ”
"Pretend! Pretend! ”
"You're trying to take it seriously!" Tong Xi couldn't wait in his heart, and snorted,
"I dare not think! Don't dare to think! Qi Rui didn't dare to mess with Tong Xi, so he slept on the ground with the futon.
Long Lan said distressedly: "Wear a cotton jacket in the morning, wear yarn in the afternoon, and eat watermelon around the stove!" The temperature difference here is very cold at night, what should you do if you sleep on the ground and get sick! Just go to bed and sleep, you sleep on the outermost. ”
"Brother Qi, do you want to sleep between me and Sister Long?" Tong Xi asked badly,
