Zhuo Wangsun stood in the dark shadow far away, and the east gate of Chengdu was in front of him. A long convoy of cars, swinging out along the roads of the city, was very long, full of a hundred and ten vehicles. The car is covered with thatch, which covers the goods inside tightly, and the bundle is also very strong, so you can tell that you have to go a long way at a glance.

The county soldier guarding the gate yawned and glanced at the convoy: "Which?" Is there a warrant? ”

The housekeeper of Zhuo Mansion glared: "Blind? Don't see the Zhuo Mansion mark? ”

"It turned out to be the Zhuo family! Hey, hey, hey! The county soldier smiled, waved his hand, and more than a dozen came out of the door hole behind him, the weapons in his hands were very simple, but the momentum was not weak at all.

"What are you going to do?" The butler took a step back, and the guards behind him immediately rushed up.

The county soldier guarding the gate glanced at it: "Ordered to check, what's the matter?" Do you want to fight back? Come, see who's afraid of whom! Call someone! ”

When the housekeeper heard this, he knew that he only used the name of the Zhuo family to think of Chengdu, so he hurriedly walked out: "This, there is something to discuss, we are Li Sima's people, and he entrusted our Zhuo Mansion to transport some goods!" As he spoke, the butler handed a money bag in his hand to the head of the county soldiers.

Weighing the money bag in his hand, the head of the county soldier smiled: "That's right!" Can Li Sima's goods have Li Sima's warrant? ”

"Yes, yes!" The butler took out a slip from his bosom and handed it over.

After reading the bamboo slips, I weighed the money bag again. The butler took out a bag again, and a smile finally appeared on the face of the county soldier: "Is this right!" Hello and I'm good if you have a warrant! Brothers, open the gates! ”

"Squeak......!" There was a thud, and the heavy gates were opened. The housekeeper hurriedly urged the driver of the car to hurry out of the city, pulling so many goods, he must not stay in Chengdu for a long time, if he was discovered, he could not be suppressed by Li Cheng's name.

Zhuo Wangsun watched the convoy all go out of the city, and then turned around and walked back. As soon as he got home, he went to the wing room in the front yard. The house was still dark, and there was a strange person inside, who came in the middle of the night, and asked Zhuo Wangsun for a secluded room, never going out during the day, and not lighting the lamp at night, completely hiding himself. Except for him Zhuo Wang Sun, no one else in the Zhuo Mansion knew that there was such a person.

"It's been sent away! I watched out of town! Zhuo Wangsun stood at the door and said to the black shadow inside.

The black shadow was by the wall, dressed in black, and his face was flushed: "Very good, I'll leave in a while, nothing can happen to that batch of soldiers." ”

"Do you want to prepare anything?"

"No!" The black shadow waved his hand, and Zhuo Wangsun hurriedly retreated.

Zhuo's housekeepers were in charge of escorting the goods, and their destination was Liujiaao, twenty miles outside Chengdu. As long as the goods are delivered to Liujiaao, his task will be completed, and these things will have nothing to do with Zhuo Mansion. The housekeeper walked last, constantly urging the car to speed up. There were a hundred and three oxen and carriages, all of which were armoured, enough to arm two thousand.

When I went out of the city, it was the middle of the night, and it was still the moon, and the faint sky light could not illuminate the road clearly. They didn't dare to light the lamp, so they could only walk as fast as they could in the dark and rely on their memory.

"How far is it?" The butler wiped the sweat from his head and craned his neck to look ahead.

One of the riders replied: "It should be almost there, turn the mountain pass in front of you and be Liujiaao!" ”

"Oh, okay, quick, you can rest when you get to Liujiaao!"

Arriving at Liujiaao safely, the housekeeper was as tired as a dog, and he had never felt like this before when he delivered goods. This time it's not just fear, it's extreme fear, there's nothing to die, if there is something wrong with these goods, it's not as simple as killing him alone. The housekeeper didn't want to stay in Liujiaao for a moment, so he walked back immediately after completing the handover.

Looking back at Liu Jiaao, the head of the family breathed a sigh of relief: "I have been scared for so many days, and I can finally sleep peacefully today!" ”

ran back to Chengdu in one go, and Zhuo Wangsun hadn't slept yet. As soon as the housekeeper stepped into the door, Zhuo Wangsun's eyes opened: "How?" How is it all good? ”

The housekeeper hurriedly took out a piece of silk silk from his arms and held it to Zhuo Wangsun with both hands: "Everything goes well, this is a receipt!" ”

Zhuo Wangsun let out a sigh of relief, glanced at the receipt, and put it in his arms: "Very good, hard work, go down and rest!" I'm going to invite Li Cheng tomorrow, and I'm going to talk to him about my distant niece. ”

"Whoa!"

That night, Zhuo Wangsun and the housekeeper slept very well and steadily, and their dreams were all good dreams. In months, I had never slept so well and woke up very late. Sitting on the couch, he yawned, and the two maids hurriedly came over to wash up King Zhuo's grandson.

The housekeeper knocked on the door and said outside the door: "Master, Li Sima is in the lobby, when will you see him?" ”

"So fast?" Zhuo Wangsun thought for a while: "Let him wait a while, I'll be here right away!" ”

"Whoa!"

Li Cheng's face was not shocked, and he sat in the lobby leisurely drinking good tea. He had only drunk this kind of tea soup a few times at Su Ren's place. Su Ren said that the annual output of this superb roasted tea is only a few catties, and even less is sold outside except for what is left for him. In today's Shu County, the price of this superb roasted tea is a little more expensive than gold.

Li Cheng couldn't drink this tea well, and it was as bitter as it was in his mouth. The housekeeper was by Li Cheng's side, saying painless words, looking very happy and excited. When Zhuo Wangsun came, it was already three poles in the sun. took square steps, with a smile on his face: "Li Sima came so fast!" ”

Li Cheng hurriedly got up and saluted King Zhuo Sun: "Zhuo's shopkeeper beckons, naturally faster, but I also have something to find Zhuo's shopkeeper today, so I will come faster." ”

"Oh? Hehe! Zhuo Wang Sun smiled: "Li Sima is more anxious than me, my niece will come to Chengdu in a few days, and I will discuss it with his father at that time, Li Sima can rest assured, he will never regret what he promised, not to mention that Li Sima helped me so much yesterday." ”

"I'll put this matter aside for now, I'm talking about another thing."

"Oh? The other thing, what? ”

"Does Shopkeeper Zhuo know that we made trouble in Chengdu last night?"

"Mountain bandits?" Zhuo Wangsun was shocked: "There are a few cottages on the mountains outside Chengdu, but they have never been to Chengdu, besides, there are more than 1,000 county soldiers in Chengdu, how dare those people come nonsense?" ”

"Hey! Who's to say it isn't? But here it is! ”

The housekeeper glanced at Zhuo Wangsun and said to Li Cheng: "Can Li Sima say it clearly?" What we are most worried about as businessmen is these bandits! ”

Li Cheng nodded, thought for a while, and said: "It's not a big deal, last night a group of mountain bandits suddenly attacked Liujiaao in the east of the city, and it was already morning when I received the report. These ......"

"Where?" Zhuo Wangsun's eyes widened and he stared at Li Cheng.

"Liujiaao in the east of the city!"

"Last night?" The housekeeper had already lost his voice: "Do you know that it is the mountain bandit?" How many people are there? ”

Li Cheng shook his head: "The captain hasn't come back yet, the specific situation is not very clear, I heard the shopkeeper Zhuo say yesterday that he was going to transport the goods out of the east gate, I don't know if there is a problem?" Shopkeeper Zhuo should send someone to take a look, in case ......"

The butler had already rushed out of the door, running in such a hurry that he almost tripped over the threshold.

Zhuo Wangsun lay down on the Taishi's chair and said nothing. Li Cheng said something later, but he didn't listen to a word, and it was as if there were hundreds of flies spinning around in his head, and he panicked. When did Li Cheng leave, Zhuo Wangsun didn't know. When he came to his senses a little, the butler stood in front of him with a sad face.

"The hosts! It's over, it's all over! ”

Zhuo Wangsun completely collapsed, and fainted as soon as he raised his head.

Wen Dang and Chang Shi, Tang Meng and a Shu County official sat in the lobby. Su Ren stood in the hall, reporting on the situation of the bandits in Liujiaao.

"According to preliminary estimates, the number of bandits is large, definitely not less than five hundred, and all of them are brave and good at fighting, but the strange thing is that the losses suffered by the people of Liujiaao are not large, only a few thatched huts were destroyed, and the personnel were not injured, and the food and items at home were not seen, but a caravan temporarily living in Liujiaao was poisoned, from the driver to the guard, no life was returned, and the goods were also looted, and the preliminary estimate is that these bandits are going to those goods."

"Goods? Do you know whose caravan it is? What's being transported? ”

Su Ren shook his head: "Whose caravan doesn't know yet, the goods transported should be military armor, there are traces on the ground, and the people can also confirm that it took a long time for those mountain bandits to move those armor, and they can see it clearly!" ”

"Humph! can transport armor and more than a hundred vehicles, who else can there be besides the Zhuo family? Chang Shi was furious: "Let him sell our armor, he said no, it's good now, he actually shipped a large number of armor, and the Zhuo family deliberately gave these armors to those mountain bandits!" ”

Tang Meng said: "Lord Changshi can't guess, before there is no evidence, it's better to be cautious, Captain Su, can you send someone to track down the whereabouts of those armors?" ”

"My subordinates have already sent someone! It should soon be reported that it will not be easy to transport or hide thousands of armor sets. ”

Wen Dang nodded: "Shu is mountainous, bandits are endless, although there are fewer in the past two years, there are still there, these bandits do not produce but wreak havoc, is the root cause of the disaster, if not eradicated, how to be worthy of the people of Shu County, this time and snatched thousands of pieces of armor, even more like a tiger with wings, Tang Duwei, you are the Captain of Shu County, it is your duty to arrest bandits, whether you can stabilize Shu County depends on you." ”

Tang Meng hurriedly got up: "Tang Meng, who is too obedient to the teachings, should remember that he should die for the people of Shu County!" ”

Wen Dang nodded. Tang Meng turned to Su Ren again and said: "Captain Su, this time the matter of Liujiaao happened under the jurisdiction of Chengdu, as the captain of Chengdu, you have a great responsibility, this matter is handled by you with full authority, be sure to clean up those bandits, and leave no one behind!" ”
