Someone snorted coldly, "It's not the filial piety that the merchants give them, these merchants can't go to Zhangjiakou, but they are cheaper." ”

"That's it!" The soldiers spoke out in agreement, and they did not have a good impression of these colleagues who robbed them of their benefits.

"I said Hao Qing, you can't say that you are an acquaintance of this dungeon, what is there to say, they have no way to get money except for receiving filial piety, don't say it." When Zou Qun heard this, he suddenly felt bored and wanted to leave.

"He's right, but this guy does have a way." Hao Qing hurriedly explained, "Zou Tou'er, what do you think, when we were able to receive filial piety in the past, how many caravans in and out of Zhangjiakou had to be, it was just enough to make a living, they were on the dungeon, although there are some entries these days, but the merchants are so much on the dungeon, how much can this guy do last night, but he was more generous than I used to be, if there is no other way, where does this money come from?" ”

Zou Qun put down the foot that had been raised, "Have you figured it out?" Don't talk about smuggling goods, anyway, you and I don't have the capital, if you go with them to the outside of the plug, you can consider being a guard. ”

He thought about it, and those who could get money, except for smuggling, were to serve as guards, anyway, although they were border troops, because of the arrears of wages, the generals did not dare to manage too strictly, and the work of guarding the door was not all their work, besides, even if it was their turn, they didn't need a single sentry to gather here.

In the past, it was not that there were no small merchants who came to the door and asked them to help guard out of the fortress, but at that time, there was filial piety to take it, so it was not very careful, and more importantly, it was to be such a guard, and it was inevitable that the dwarf would feel that the dwarf was the same in the future, and how to scold these small merchants at the gate of the city, and collect people's money without blushing.

Now that there is no filial piety, and the silver is nowhere to be seen, for the sake of the family, this guard may have to do it.

"Look at what you said, Zou Tou'er, how could I let the brothers do such a tasteless thing as guarding." Hao Qing was not happy, after all, he was single, and there was no pressure, but he didn't notice that everyone, including Zou Qun and Luo Da, had a disapproving look after hearing his words.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, tell me as soon as you find out any news." Zou Qun urged, but felt in his heart that even if he was really a guard, as long as he could make money, "Put away your tricky kung fu for me." ”

Hao Qing smiled stupidly, he also planned to take advantage of the large number of people today, and talk about it well, after a good time, the captain Zou Qun said this, but it didn't work, so he had to make a long story short: "Dunbao This person said, there is a big trading company that is implicated, and they can't get out of Zhangjiakou, they need a lot of wool..."

Need a lot of wool? Hearing this, Zou Qun's heart moved, and he always felt that something was wrong, and he couldn't remember it for a while, so he had to put it down temporarily.

I only heard Hao Qing continue, "... Their people have been divided into batches, from the various dungeon military platforms out of the customs to collect wool, but the wool back manpower is not enough, because now there is an urgent need for people and horses, they buy the wool back to the customs, the trading company is willing to pay for this, it is said that this trading company is in Baoan Prefecture, there are mules, horses and idlers in Baoan Prefecture, all moved, presumably the news will soon spread to the Xuanfu area. “

"Cut, Hao Qing, what are you talking nonsense? Although the wool is not valuable, this trading company is really relieved that we will pull the wool away? If you don't send them to the place, what if you sell them yourself? Someone retorted.

"Are you as stupid as you are?" Hao Qing was not convinced, "People said that only the family members who work in the trading company, or the people who have planted their food, can get the wool from outside the plug without any cost, if you have bad intentions on the road, the trading company will find your family to settle accounts after the autumn." ”

"So, people who have nothing to do with their trading company can't do this job, right?" Luo Da asked a little dejectedly, when he first heard what Hao Qing said, he was still full of joy, and felt that he had seen a glimmer of light, but he didn't have the heart to swallow people's goods, this kind of thing can only be done once, but it is not as good as working honestly for people, and it is good to work for people.

"Yes, after talking for a long time, we can't do anything else." There are many soldiers who have the same thoughts as Rhoda, and they all feel pity when they hear this.

Only Zou Qun was still staring at Hao Qing, "Then tell me, Hao Qing, you kid, I know what shit you want to poop when you pout your ass, if we can't do this, what are you going to do?" ”

"That's right." Luo Da also suddenly realized, "Your acquaintances in the dungeon, they may not have anything to do with that trading company, they haven't done the same." ”

"Hey, hey, hey." Hao Qing saw that his mind was seen through, and he was not embarrassed, so he only laughed a few times.

When the rest of the soldiers saw him like this, they knew that what Zou Qun said was true, and began to rush Hao Qing again, and the anxious one had already squeezed in front of Hao Qing and was about to do it.

"I said I said." Hao Qing saw that the crowd was angry, and hurriedly raised his hand to surrender, "As long as we have something to mortgage the trading company, we can help them transport wool and earn money and food." ”

"Mortgage?" Zou Qun frowned, "As far as those of us who are poor soldiers, how can we have anything of value or collateral for others." ”

"That's right." Rhoda was also embarrassed to think about his four-walled house.

"What can I use as collateral?" Zou Qun doesn't believe in evil, it doesn't make sense that those soldiers in the dungeon fort have a thicker family background than them, they can have a mortgage, don't they have it for others.

"Silver, grain..."

Before Hao Qing finished speaking, he was interrupted, "What we lack is money and food, and what we want to earn is also money and food. ”

"Shut up!" Zou Qun shouted, the trading company wants collateral, if you can get the money and food, there is no reason for people not to accept it, but there must be more than these two things.

Hao Qing glanced at the person triumphantly, and then said, "Mules and horses, cloth are also fine." ”

"Mules and horses?" Zou Qun muttered, there are a lot of horses in the border army, and they can use them, but since it is to transport wool, the more horses the better, and besides, this horse is not private after all, so it feels like it is not a matter to mortgage it like this.

As for the cloth, Zou Qun didn't think about it at all, everyone was dressed in tatters, how could there be extra cloth?

"Anything else?" Zou Qun then asked.

Hao Qing nodded, looked left and right, deliberately put his mouth to Zou Qun's ear, and whispered, "They also accept armor and weapons." ”
