Chapter 103: Instead
Huanxituo and others were untied and taken to a big room in the middle, they almost couldn't believe their eyes, only to see Simao sitting in the middle, accompanied by a few people such as the lean man who started when he robbed himself yesterday, and what made them even more angry was that there was wine and food in front of Simao and others, although the dishes were not rich, but they were fresh seasonal fish in the lake, but for Huanxituo and others who had been running around in the middle of the night, running, and swimming, and had completed a triathlon, the hungry Huanxituo and others, no less than a shy and delicious taste, Huanxituo picked up a fish from the bowl in front of Simao, chewed it, and said with a hum: "You kid is not enough brothers, you trick us into working for half a night, you eat and drink spicy." ”
Simao smiled and said, "Do you spit fish bones?" Don't get stuck, eat slowly. ”
Many Cao Gang Gang Ding was let into the banquet, although this big table has no taste of salt, but for them, it is already the most delicious meal in their lives, and no one on the table speaks, the other party just blindly persuades wine, persuasion of food, Simao does not explain why there is such a change, from the prisoner under the stairs to the guest, Huanxituo Although he has a stomach of doubts, but he is scheming, very able to endure curiosity, everyone eats and drinks, until they are full of wine and food, these people are placed in a big room, is no longer a cell, at this moment, there is no one to supervise the earthen kang along the root of the wall, and there is no one in front of the door to supervise it, Huanxituo looked at the surroundings of his own people, and then punched Simao's chest, and scolded hatefully: "You kid is too bad, you tricked us into making bait, you are tired and half dead, and you don't want to recruit it quickly." ”
Simao said with a smile: "I can't help it, they don't talk to us, I can only force them to talk, without you to lead away the pursuers, how can I turn over his old kiln so easily, and also arrest his old handsome, you and your brothers should take the first credit." ”
"Don't come here, fool me, tell me, how did you talk to him?"
"It's very simple, I'll build a north-south cargo store for them in the mouth, and in the future, they will enter the salt themselves, and the local fresh food can also be directly traded ashore for silver, and their people and ships can be traded into our Cao Gang, I will count him as a share, and I will take them to play with the private goods on the Cao Road in the future. In this Hongze Lake, they are the largest, but out of this realm, their eyes are black, it is better to be trapped here than to rely on the big tree of the Cao Gang, after all, no one is born willing to lick the blood of the knife, it is nothing more than no way out. ”
"That's all?"
Simao nodded: "Isn't that all?" You're tempted to change you. ”
Huanxituo rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "No, you and I are a hollow, Hong Ze water bandits have never been the idea of beating our Cao Gang, yesterday he knew our details and robbed our boat, there must be a problem, how to explain this matter?" ”
Simao glanced at him, and said with a haha: "You're just too careful, let's sleep back when you're full of food and drink, he sent us on the boat at noon, and we have a tiger into the mountains and forests, and the dragon returns to the sea." After speaking, he stood up and walked outside: "I'll go to the thatched house, brothers should hurry up and rest, maybe I will catch a night flight tonight." ”
Huanxituo was so alert, seeing that everyone was down, he also took a cold breath and slipped out, there was really no one watching outside the house, Simao stood far away under a crooked neck willow tree and beckoned to himself, Huanxituo looked around, and quickly followed, and the two disappeared in a forest together.
"What can't you say to your face, God is talking about your own brothers?" Huanxituo asked in the first sentence.
"We have spies with golden eyebrows mixed in." Simao's words made Huanxituo's eyebrows wrung together immediately, but a mystery hidden in his heart was also uncovered at this moment, and he was familiar with the transaction with Hong Ze water bandits, of course, he was familiar with the road inside, according to the rules, it was impossible for the two parties to agree on the place and timing of the transaction in advance, the reason is very simple, if the news is leaked, it is easy to be given a pot by the official army. Therefore, every transaction is irregular and irregular, the boat to the boundary of Hongze Lake, naturally someone will find the traces of the Cao Gang and then go to report the news, so the other party is every household rowing a boat, often pouring out of the nest, trading on the water, after the transaction is completed, it will naturally be clean. And this time, when entering this water, the other party ambushed all over the place, and there were many people, as if they came out from under the water, and in the blink of an eye, they surrounded their own people, which was obviously prepared, and after full planning and arrangement, they waited for work, but how could they know their itinerary and traces in advance? There is a big mystery in this, but Huanxituo doesn't dare to think deeply.
Huanxituo immediately asked: "Did you guess it yourself or did you see something?" ”
Simao said lightly: "No, it's the leader of the other party, the lean man told me." ”
"He told you?" Huanxituo will be happy when he hears it, if this news comes from the other party, eighty percent is true, but whether the other party is a fake enemy or a real friend is still two words, and the possibility of setting off smoke bombs is not ruled out, so he asked: "Why did he tell you this news?" ”
Simao said in a low voice: "Their boss Qiu Lao Pole has a good friend in the Baoxiang Courtyard in Chukou, and last month he was ambushed in the good bed, and was caught by the people with Jin Baimei, and Jin Baimei asked them to rob the boat carrying smuggled goods by the Cao Gang, otherwise they would have to take Qiu Lao's life." ”
Huan Xituo scolded hatefully: "I knew that Jin Baimei, this old bastard, didn't hold back his fart, but he didn't expect to wait for us here, what is he going to do?" ”
Simao sneered: "What else can you do?" Now that the golden and white eyebrows on the dock have dominated the world, and such a good private goods deal on the thousands of miles of waterway is given to the Cao Gang alone, can he not be blushing? He wanted to mix sand into it, and he was about to meddle in the road step by step. ”
"That's why he used the Hongze Fish Gang as a gunman?"
Simao nodded: "Of course, the Hongze Fish Gang is stuck in the half of the Cao Road, how can there be a thousand days of anti-thief truth, pinching the trump card of the Fish Gang, he is equivalent to holding the seven inches of our Cao Gang, this old boy is really powerful, put the harrier in our Cao Gang, the other party told me that he knew about this trip three days ago through the eyeliner of the golden eyebrows." ”
"If the Fish Gang cooperates with us, will their boss die? There's no fraud in this, right? Huanxituo suddenly realized another question and immediately asked.
"You're right, of course they're afraid that Jin Baimei will tear up the ticket, but the boss of Qiu Laogang is also detached, what if someone takes the opportunity to replace him?"
