"Brother, what's wrong? It's still early, and it's time to set up camp? With a glistening sweat on her forehead, she came to Zhiwen's side and asked.

"It's here!" Zhiwen said with a smile.

"Arrived?" The three girls were a little ignorant at first, but they quickly reacted.

Xiaoying screamed, "Brother Xiaozhi, are you going to enter the customs?" ”

Although they are greedy for fun, they have been out for too long this time, and they are homesick, and they are so excited to learn that Zhangjiakou is in front.

As soon as Zhiwen nodded, Xiaoying continued, "Then what are you waiting for?" Let's go. With that, he kicked off the horse's belly.

Zhiwen, who was quick-eyed, grabbed the reins of the horse, "Don't worry, let's come back this time, it's not the same as when we went out of the customs, if we go like this, it will be easy to cause misunderstanding." ”

The three girls were very smart, and when they saw the smoke and dust rising into the sky behind them, they all understood what Zhiwen meant, and stayed in place with him at the moment, waiting for the arrival of the rear team.

"Huh..."Steward Qian came to Zhiwen's side and stopped, "The proprietor, customs clearance documents are required for customs entry as usual, I wonder if you have prepared for us?" ”

"Huh?" Zhiwen was dumbfounded, when he was out of the customs, Si Cha only did it for him and the three girls, plus Liu Cai's paperwork, not to mention Si Cha's unexpected, even Zhiwen himself couldn't have imagined that he would bring so many people back.

Steward Qian sighed lightly in his heart, it seems that this young proprietor really doesn't understand these tricks at the border pass, and the general Ming caravan must always prepare more blank paperwork when leaving the customs, so that if you receive people on the grassland, it is convenient to bring them into the pass.

Of course, there are too many people Zhiwen has to bring this time, and the money manager doesn't think that Zhiwen can prepare so many documents, but he didn't expect that there would be more than one.

As for the Mongolian people who come to Zhangjiakou to sell cattle, horses and sheep are different, they cannot have documents, they need to exchange silver money for customs clearance, but the road guide is generally not too much, the Mongolian tribe here is often only one percent of the people can drive livestock into Zhangjiakou to trade.

"Proprietor, proprietor!" Steward Qian woke up the distracted Zhiwen, "Why don't you go in first if you have the paperwork, get the paperwork and then come out to answer us?" ”

Zhiwen turned his head, looked at the crowd of black presses, the horses, and the wool on the horseback, and shook his head slightly.

Regardless of whether Si Cha is there or not, he believes that as long as he and others go to ask for help, although there are many people, it is not difficult to clear the customs documents.

But the problem now is that their momentum is too big, 2,000 horses, 1,000 people, except for the super caravan of the eight major grain merchants, the general merchants do not have this scale, and except for a few Han people, the others are Mongolian, and it is difficult not to attract attention.

Just went to the Pujie Hall to help, and the relationship with the salt merchants in southern Jinnan was bound to be exposed to the eyes of the eight families headed by the Fan family, which was very unwise.

Seeing that Zhiwen shook his head, the money manager who has been giving advice to others all the year round is very good at observing words and feelings, and did not continue to entangle on the paperwork, and coughed lightly, "The proprietor, if the silver taels are enough, it doesn't hurt to have no documents." ”

When Zhiwen heard this, he took a long breath, and said earlier, Yin Liang is now the most useless thing in his place, he can't eat or wear, and it's best to use it to open up joints.

At that moment, he pretended to put his hand into his arms, but in fact, he took a large bag of silver from the warehouse, and without looking at how much it was, he stuffed it into the money manager, "Take it, Mr. Qian, let Liu Cai accompany you." ”

Zhiwen's arrogant behavior made the money manager a little unable to react, the bag of silver in his hand, to say the least, is around three hundred taels, I don't know if Zhiwen regards money as dung, or is very relieved of him, and he is so generous.

"What, not enough?" Seeing that the money manager did not react, Zhiwen took another bag of silver and put it in his hand.

"Enough is enough, proprietor." The money steward hurriedly wanted to return a bag of silver, his idea was actually to spend money to buy road guides, this kind of road guides are actually very cheap, otherwise it would not create the status of Zhangjiakou Saibei trade town, although the number is limited, but the money steward believes that as long as the silver money is enough, there will be no problems.

"Take it." Zhiwen didn't accept the money handed over by the money manager, "It's not too late to return it if it's more, if it's less, it'll be troublesome." ”

"Yes, proprietor." Although he knew that nine times out of ten it was the owner's move to buy people's hearts, the money manager was still a little moved by being trusted and valued.

"Liu Cai, you accompany Mr. Qian for a while." Zhiwen said.

Liu Cai arched his hand on the side, indicating that he understood.

"Others... Let's camp on the spot, even if we can enter the customs today, we have so many people, I'm afraid it's too late, rest for one night, and enter the customs early tomorrow morning. Zhiwen commanded.

......

"Squeak... "The north gate of Laiyuan Fort made an unpleasant noise, and it was already halfway closed.

Zou Qun was holding the steel knife in his backhand, and was driving the people in the caravan with the back of the knife, although he no longer cared about the face of this caravan, he still didn't want to cause trouble.

The steward, who was rolling on the ground in pain just now, was relieved, suddenly stopped, raised his tearful face, and didn't bother to wipe it, and shouted at Zou Qun tremblingly, "General, general!" ”

"How?" Zou Qun glared at him impatiently, and raised his waist knife, "Could it be that the kick just now was not enough, so you have to eat me with a knife?" ”

"No, no, no, the general is mighty, and the small ones don't dare." That kick made the steward no longer as contemptuous as he used to be, "There is no sound of horses' hooves." ”

"What did you say?" Zou Qun asked with a frown.

"The little one said that there is no sound of horses' hooves, I don't believe you lie down and listen!" The steward said flatteringly.

Zou Qun finally understood what he meant, "Don't move!" With a loud shout, he frightened the restless crowd, and also lay on the ground, put one ear to it, and listened carefully.

He also had to do this, if it wasn't for the enemy attack, but he was so frightened that he closed the city gate without permission, then he would have come to an end as the sentry commander.

"Little one, right? Checkmate. After a while, the steward asked.

"Get out of the way!" Zou Qun got up with a calm face, walked to the city gate and looked into the distance.

"Sentry Chief, it doesn't seem like it's coming from the North." Rhoda spoke, gesturing to the smoke and dust that had dissipated in the distance.

At this moment, two black shadows appeared, and it was obvious that they were two horsemen, who were speeding towards Laiyuanbao.

"Hahaha, it's not the Tartars coming." The steward didn't know when he came behind Zou Qun, and when he saw this scene, he couldn't help laughing out loud, and the other people in the caravan also cheered in unison.

Luo Da and several other soldiers stopped their movements and looked at Zou Qun steadily.

"Look at what I do, open the door and open the door." Zou Qun said angrily, it was a false alarm after a long time.

"Phew!" Zou Qun took a sip secretly, patted the dust on his body, and cursed in a low voice, "it, I don't know which merchant it is, such a big battle, it seems that there is no oil and water again." ”
