Seeing that Yang Changfan still had some doubts and fears in his eyes, the wolf soldier immediately handed over his wine bag: "Master, drink." ”

Yang Changfan was stunned for a moment, this title is inappropriate, and then he reacted, the owner should mean the owner of this place, and they are guests.

Yang Changfan was really a little cold, and immediately accepted the kindness and took the wine bag "Gu Dong Gu Dong" and took two big mouths, and then wiped his mouth and exclaimed: "Sweet? ”

"Hahaha!"

The wolf soldiers around them burst out laughing.

"Glutinous rice liqueur, how's that?" The wolf soldier asked.

"Comfortable!" Yang Changfan hurriedly returned the wine bag after admiring, "I just don't dare to drink more!" ”

The man said very freely: "Drink! We, eat your mules, you, drink our wine! ”

Yang Changfan smiled "gratefully", and took the opportunity to stumble with this person to investigate.

Judging from the pronunciation, this small leader is named "Teqi", a native of Nadizhou, who was called by the very famous Washi, and Teqi called on more than ten brothers in the village to come to Pingwei. Of course, they had never met the Japanese in their lives, let alone had any deep hatred, and the purpose of their visit was very clear - to make money.

No matter how poor you are, there are even poorer ones, there are many mountains in the southwest and little land, and the productivity itself is also there, it is basically enough to survive, and there is basically no way to live well. Although in principle, they can participate in the imperial examination, but this is too difficult for them who do not know Chinese characters, as for the local Tusi and other officials, it is basically hereditary, so most of the young people in the village are in the stage of eating and drinking enough to sing mountain songs, and a few industrious hunting some mountain delicacies and game meat are sold.

Therefore, in this case, it is too tempting for a person to earn a tael per head.

Yang Changfan also figured out that these people were not ordinary recruits, they were mercenaries.

Effective and direct, use it and come and go.

And they are very poor mercenaries, the cost is low, and a tael of silver is enough to be happy for a month.

And they are tough mercenaries, as can already be seen from the way they cut the flesh of the mule.

Eating mule meat and drinking wine with these dozen or so, Yang Changfan took the opportunity to ask why they broke away from the army.

Teqi is really too much, and the local dialect plus Chinese gives the reason simply and straightforwardly-

Supplies are more cost-effective than killing.

The wolf soldiers gave (qiang) all the way to the fate, and the economic benefits they got had already exceeded the interests of killing one widow per capita, but the Washi military discipline was quite strict, and excessive "supplies" would be beaten, so these few people "accidentally" broke away from the large army and chose to get lost, and took a detour to Jiaxing.

Such mercenaries are a double-edged sword.

Fortunately, it is reasonable in nature, otherwise Yang Changfan will be roasted and eaten by the way.

Yang Changfan was actually slightly moved, although the interest of the Japanese in the north shore of Hangzhou Bay is much greater than that of the south shore, but after all, it is only a few tens of kilometers away, and if you are not happy one day, you should come over and walk around, and it is obviously unrealistic to pin your hopes on Pang Quyi for the defense task, and it seems that it is far more cost-effective to raise a team of such mercenaries than a family member or a thug.

But when Teqi asked "where is the surrounding wealth", Yang Changfan shrugged again, once he couldn't control it, the lethality of these dozen bachelors would inevitably be far greater than that of the Japanese on the other side.

Zhang Jing was really anxious, and he was stunned to transfer these guys to the East China Sea.

The language is not comprehensible, and no matter how deep the conversation is, Yang Changfan will retire after filling his stomach, and it is too risky to spend the night with them. More than a dozen Zhuang brothers did not have any ill thoughts about Yang Changfan, and they let him leave generously after saving him.

Yang Changfan got on the road again, without the mule cart, and he was not familiar with the road, so he really didn't know how long it would take to walk back to Lihai.

……

At the mouth of the Qianqing River, ten miles west of Lihai Village, two behemoths quietly docked at night, anchored and laid off the board, crowded in silence, and dozens of people landed in turn.

The first person walked to a place, took out the fire sickle, lit the torch with a few "stabs, stabs, stabs", raised it above his head and shook it high, his bald head was even brighter than the torch.

In the dark, a man in a green robe flashed out from behind the tree.

The bald head immediately handed the torch to the person behind him, and stepped forward to respectfully bow: "Young Master Mao." ”

"Earlier next time, don't drag it out until it's ugly." Mao Haifeng said impatiently, "I still have to transport and load the goods, I'm afraid it will be delayed until dawn." ”

"There are many guards here, so it's better to be careful." The bald head is really a bold and careful person, "When you are young, you go out of the boat, when you are ugly, you can stay on the shore, and you should be safer." ”

"You can rest assured that even if you enter the port at noon, the people in the guard will only be invisible." Mao Haifeng smiled slightly, "Take the guys, come with me." ”

Under the leadership of Mao Haifeng, dozens of people pushed the cart and didn't go far to the hiding place.

He Yongqiang has been waiting for a long time, and he also secretly transported hundreds of boxes of goods by night. If he had seen it in the daytime, he would have been hiding in a small cargo dock.

Everyone is an old businessman, and there is no need to say a word, the bald head began to direct the workers to carry it, and Mao Haifeng and He Yongqiang stood side by side and watched.

Mao Haifeng said unhurriedly: "Someone will send the silver to the house tomorrow." ”

"The owner of Wufeng is naturally reputable, and Mao Gongzi doesn't need to say much." He Yongqiang looked at the goods and said, "No inspection? ”

Mao Haifeng also waved his hand generously: "I've been with you for so long, I can trust it." ”

"I like to do business with Mao Gongzi, happy." He Yongqiang sneered, and when he saw that Mao Gongzi was in a good mood, he said, "Mao Gongzi will go with you." ”

"Well, I haven't been back for a few days, and I'll come back when the trouble over there in Jiaxing is over."

"That's right, it's time to avoid it." He Yongqiang then asked, "As for the last time, ......?"

Mao Haifeng said impatiently when he heard this: "Don't worry, I remember." ”

"That's good, that's good." He Yongqiang was relieved at this time, and immediately made a move, "Since this is the case, I will leave first." ”

"Let's go." Mao Haifeng didn't look at him, "It's not good to be bumped into by someone." ”

"If anything, the officers and soldiers will go around the ship of the owner of Wufeng when they see it." He Yongqiang said embarrassedly, "I'm afraid that someone will pass by and complain to the government." ”

"The government dares to manage?"

"Young Master Mao doesn't know, we have a deadly magistrate here."

"It's just a county."

"Although the magistrate is small, he is also a parent official." He Yongqiang took half a step back, "Then you will leave first?" ”

"Hmm."

After He Yongqiang left, Mao Haifeng pulled his bald head and asked, "Where are you going this time?" ”

The bald head whispered: "Macau." ”

"Not going back to Japan?" Mao Haifeng frowned.

"The owner of Wufeng has personally negotiated, and this batch of goods will be exchanged for Franc Machine, and the profit will be twice as much as if it returned to Japan."

"Hmph, Francois is willing to pay twice the money, and when he goes back, he can sell it for twenty times the profit, and then use one of them to buy guns and transport them to sell, I am afraid that it will not be used for a few trips a year, and the profit will be worth the annual income of the treasury."

"Childe, this can't be red, the outside routes are all theirs. Moreover, our profits are not thin, and it is enough to control the East China Sea as far as the South Sea. ”

"Don't talk about this, what will you change this time? Spices can not be changed. ”
