Chapter 7 Bait

The seventh octopus bait

After lunch, Gongzi Wei Xing went to comfort the injured people, let everyone recuperate calmly, and told everyone that since they were lucky to survive, Phoenix Fort would not ignore it and keep raising until everyone recovered!

Most of the wounded were not from Phoenix Fort, and Phoenix Castle had no obligation to provide for them in the next few months, but a few heart-warming words spread, and the wounded's mood suddenly stabilized a lot.

Originally, there were some uneasy emotions hidden in their hearts, but now after listening to Wei Gongzi's words, everyone feels that Wei Gongzi is a very kind person.

In the Western Regions, where the natural conditions are harsh and living materials are scarce, life seems to be a little cheap most of the time, and death from starvation and cold is very common;

Phoenix Fort allows the wounded of the Chamber of Commerce to be treated the same as the wounded of their own family, without mentioning any charges, which is already a very rare and valuable act!

Walking out of the healing courtyard full of medicinal smells, Mr. Ning showed a grateful expression on his face, and thanked him heartily: "Wei Gongzi's great kindness, the Demon Suppression Dart Bureau will never forget!" This friendship, Ning wrote it down! ”

"Chief dart, you're so polite! Don't talk about anything else, just talk about the life and death of our joint fight against horse bandits, and Wei should do the same! Switch to the total dart head, and you will do the same! It's just that the living conditions in the fort are much worse, and everyone suffers! Childe Wei Xing said apologetically.

"It's already very good, it's all fish and porridge, and we don't have this condition to eat meat in our hometown in Liangzhou!" Mr. Ning responded happily.

Gongzi Wei Xing shook his head lightly, thinking: If you are allowed to eat fish for a winter, and vomit when you smell the fish, you will have this happy look now!

Gongzi Wei Xingke has eaten enough of all kinds of fish and meat, and now that he thinks back to the winter days, he only has fish in his impression, or fish, and finally it is still nausea fish!

Winters in the Western Regions are snowy, the temperature is very low, and it is extremely cold, so they can only survive on food stored in autumn.

Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and the water to eat the water, there is a small lake around the place where Phoenix Fort originally lived;

Every day's task, everyone is to chisel ice, fish, ice, fish, and fresh fish, and most people are tired of it!

The best way, and the stupidest way, is to sleep for a few days and nights until you can't stand it anymore, and then get up and eat the fish!

In those very boring winters, how Gongzi Wei Xing wanted to eat some green vegetables;

It is a pity that there is no condition to build a vegetable greenhouse.

Although his background was extremely noble, Gongzi Wei Xing felt that his life was not as good as a random beggar in later generations.

Gongzi Wei Xing glanced at the arrow wound on the left arm of Mr. Ning's dart head, and kindly persuaded: "Chief dart head, don't be too tired, you are also a wounded!" ”

"Childe, compared to my children, I'm not injured, it's a trivial matter, and I'll be fine after half a month!" Mr. Ning replied indifferently.

"Chief Dart, you are also in your forties, you need to pay more attention to your body, I don't want to lose your friend!" Gongzi Wei Xing continued to persuade tactfully.

"Don't worry, my old man and old lady are still alive, I won't take the first step, they still need me to break the pot and send it to the end!" Mr. Ning quipped with a smile.

One big and one small, one old and one young, both of them are interested in deepening their feelings for each other.

"Childe, if you don't say your age, most people will subconsciously think of you as a fifteen or sixteen-year-old young hero, looking too old and a little!" Mr. Ning said abusively.

Gongzi Wei Xing immediately waved his hand and said: "Chief dart, your praise is too outrageous, the word hero, Wei is far behind!" I can't afford to evaluate these two words at all! ”

The memories from his previous life made him subconsciously resist these two words very much, not wanting to have anything to do with them;

Because in the world of later generations, most of the word "hero" is entangled with tragic and desolate characters, such as Yang Ye Yang Invincible in the Northern Song Dynasty, Yue Fei and Yue Pengju in the Southern Song Dynasty, Ran Min the Great who promulgated the "Hu Elimination Order", Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu who swore to die in Wujiang, Yuan Chonghuan, the famous anti-gold general of the Ming Dynasty, etc., are all heroes with strong tragic colors;

Gongzi Wei Xing's inner instinct refuses to be a hero, and he doesn't want to be a big hero;

I just want one day to no longer worry about the secret pursuit of the Western Jin Dynasty, no longer flee to the end of the world, no longer frightened, marry a few wives like flowers and jade, give birth to a group of cute and beautiful little guys, drink fine wine, hum a little song, and live a free life.

"Childe, even if you don't need these two words for the time being, the word "Haojie" is enough, hundreds of times stronger than the third child in my family! ”

Thinking of his own old Sanning Xiaowu, Ning Lao Dart had a headache, but he was helpless.

Hearing that he had become a role model and a "child of another family", Gongzi Wei Xing couldn't cry or laugh.

Ning Xiaowu, who was thousands of miles away, sneezed inexplicably, feeling very bad, he didn't know at this time that his own carefree career would end soon, and miserable days were waiting for him.

"The third child of my family is the same age as your son, but he is too stubborn, lazy and lazy, and does not listen to the lessons of his elders; If you have the opportunity, please give you more guidance and training! ”

Mr. Ning's heart suddenly flashed with a flash of inspiration, and he wanted to throw the naughty boy here to exercise for a while and sharpen it well, so he took the opportunity to mention it.

"If I really have the opportunity, I want to get close to Ling Lang, learn from each other, and make progress with each other!" Gongzi Wei Xing said modestly and perfunctorily.

After talking about the kung fu of incense again, seeing that the fire was almost over, Mr. Ning asked cautiously: "Childe, is the previous proposal about leather armor still effective?" ”

Gongzi Wei Xing glared, and said very unhappily: "A gentleman's words are difficult to chase, and Wei's words are like spilled water, and he will never break his word and get fat!" If you are always darthead, this is a slap in the face of Wei! ”

Mr. Ning was very happy in his heart, but he apologized again and again, but he didn't pay a big loss.

In the Phoenix Castle, the crossbow was a piece of equipment that they themselves had not yet equipped, but leather armor and leather hats were not precious things;

As long as there is enough leather, a batch can be sewn out quickly.

In the vast Western Regions, sheepskins, horse skins, wolf skins, and deer skins are very common, and for most herders, they are very cheap!

However, in order to maintain the unique strategic advantage of Phoenix Fort, the people of Phoenix Castle did not trade these leather armors and fur hats to the surrounding kingdoms and tribes at all, even in the most difficult times.

As for the Demon Suppression Dart Bureau in Liangzhou, Central Plains, there is no conflict with Phoenix Fort in terms of interests;

In some ways, it even needs the help of the Demon Suppression Dart Bureau, and Phoenix Fort doesn't mind accidentally selling out more than a dozen sets;

Besides, trading some urgently needed population is a very cost-effective business for the current Phoenix Castle!

"Thank you for the friendship of the son, the Magic Dart Bureau of Jiuquan County Town, Liangzhou remembers the kindness of Phoenix Castle, and will repay it in the future!" Mr. Ning thanked him very gratefully.

For Ning Zhenhu, a perennial martial artist, a set of leather armor and leather hat produced by Phoenix Fort is equivalent to a life of a dart master, which is very precious and can be passed down as a family heirloom!

It is very worthwhile to trade some cheap slavery that is not registered in the imperial register!

There are many slaves attached to the landlords of the family, and these slaves do not pay any taxes and fees to the imperial court, and the local officials naturally subconsciously ignore their existence and do not care too much about their life and death;

As long as it is not too out of line, the government will turn a blind eye and let their master bullying and abuse.

Although the Demon Dart Bureau makes a living by walking darts, there are still hundreds of acres of fields under the house, protecting many displaced and landless tenants.

Spend some more money and secretly buy some slaves from the big families with good relationships!

"Total dart head, is a dozen sets of leather armor and leather hats enough?" Gongzi Wei Xing gently cast the bait and asked casually.

Concerned about the future of the dart game, Mr. Ning is very concerned about these leather armor and leather hats, and when he heard Wei Gongzi's question, his emotions immediately fluctuated, and he asked nervously: "Is there any extra leather armor and leather hat to sell to us in Phoenix Castle?" ”

At this moment, Ning Zhenhu's mood was unprecedentedly anxious and nervous, not at all like an old man walking the world.

Seeing that Ning Zhenhu's dart head bit the bait and took the bait, Gongzi Wei Xing was very excited!
