Chapter Twenty-Six: The Swinging Dart Game
After a few days of hard work, I finally got things done perfectly, and of course there were no lack of unexpected gains. Pen~Fun~Ge www.biquge.info didn't care too much about the steward Bourhan, this world is like this, don't you also exploit those craftsmen when you are strong? This is reminiscent of the old saying: When you come out to mix, you always have to pay it back! The lime craftsmen have been recruited, and then there is the grain left, Ningxia Town is located in the Hetao irrigation area, surrounded by the Great Wall on three sides, and the Mongolian tribes are outside. Since ancient times, it has been easy to breed bandits, robbing past merchants, and Burhan originally came to bring sufficient guards, after all, there are so many silver taels and horses, as well as grain to be repurchased that need to be escorted. But when I think about it, Feng Ji said that sending a large army to come will make the Ming army's spirit tense, maybe it will not be good if someone's tension is broken and then there will be some friction. Thinking about it, only the dart bureau can afford to escort these grains out of the country.
When it comes to dart games, this dart game is an institution that receives money from people and relies on martial arts to protect people's property or personal safety, also known as dart business. In the old days, the transportation was inconvenient, the passenger travel was difficult and unsafe, the bodyguard industry came into being, and the dart bureau was established. Dart is a very special industry. In general martial arts novels, the dart game is often classified as a vein of the martial arts of the rivers and lakes, but in fact, the dart game has both dealings with the green forest and the government, and its benefits determine its nature. Between the government and the people, the game often shows a contradictory dilemma. The dart game not only depends on the robbers on the rivers and lakes to survive, but also has a close relationship with the rivers and lakes. Some Jianghu people who have received the attention of the government, if they live in the dart bureau after entering the city, the government cannot arrest them. First, because the dart game is powerful, and secondly, the dart game often has the government as a backer.
The dart of the dart board is very similar to the current logistics, but the dart (goods) transported by the dart board in ancient times are only valuables (such as rare treasures), not ordinary items, so it must be protected by someone who knows kung fu to complete. The dart master is not only good at martial arts, but also must know the lip dictionary on the rivers and lakes, that is, the jargon, in order to deal with the green forest characters who rob the dart. If you find thorns in the middle of the road, you must be prepared to meet the robbers. If you climb the friendship and agree with each other, you can pass smoothly. Otherwise, you have to rely on the level of martial arts.
To be honest, Burhan is still reluctant to deal with these so-called Jianghu characters, if nothing else, he thinks that the people in the rivers and lakes are too difficult. From time to time, because Burhan is afraid, can a martial arts master who is too difficult to deal with be worth thousands of troops? It's really that what martial arts grievances I saw in the TV series in the world are too complicated, and Burhan, who didn't think he had enough time, didn't want to waste more experience and bother with such things. In fact, Burhan thought too much, how could he know that he would definitely have a grudge against the characters in the rivers and lakes? How do you know that this trip must be in trouble?
Burhan and Feng Ji walked on the wide streets of Ningxia Mansion, and began to think about what this Zhenwei dart game that Feng Ji admired twenty years ago was like. Crossing two streets, you will see an incomparably magnificent building complex, of course, which cannot be compared with the government, but in terms of scale, it is not far behind.
As soon as I arrived at the door, I found that there were two strong men holding short sticks to guard the door, and it was probably this dart game that reflected the faΓ§ade! Feng Ji stepped forward and handed over the name post, the name post has become a must-have thing for travel in Borkand since he Pi Wu, and the business card of the present world is a truth, anyone who wants to visit some heads and faces must use it, otherwise you have to see the mood of the next person. One of the guards at the door took the name card and ran towards the inner hall, and they were waiting outside, and it was a different thing if the master could not see it! In general, Burhan came to Ningxia Town with good luck, at least the people who wanted to visit him were given a face, and after a while, he saw an adult uncle (35-6 years old) who was dressed plainly but looked extraordinary, and a large group of people who looked like dart masters came behind him, and they came at Burhan with great momentum. Don't think you're here to fight, this time of year is when all the dart games in Ningxia Town are doing light business, how can you not welcome the "master" to worship the head?
"Haha! Distinguished guests come to the door, and there is a loss of welcome and look at Haihan! Feng Ji whispered in Burhan's ear: "The one who spoke is the head of the Zhenwei Dart Bureau, Blue Dye!" Burhan did not lose his courtesy, and returned the salute with his fists. Lan Ran saw that the person in charge of the family was still a young man, and immediately put away his contempt. People who run the rivers and lakes have a sentence on their lips, that is, "If things are not normal, there must be demons!" "If you look at a child and think it's a bully, it's a big mistake, then it's not that he is blue-dyed. After a little sluggishness, he returned to his true colors, and said to Bohan and Feng Ji, "Distinguished guests, please!" In an instant, the crowd that was still chaotic separated from each other like a water ridge, standing neatly on both sides of the doorway, is this the "show meat" on the rivers and lakes or a dismount? Entering the door is a large martial arts arena, which contains various objects used by the dart masters for daily exercise, of course, there are also essential weapons, which are roughly the same as those seen in the TV series in the previous life.
I have to say that this "mansion" is very good. After walking for a while to the living room in the back hall, Burhan didn't understand why the living room of the big family was afraid that people would not know, but the living room of this dart game had to turn around. The location of the living room is also important, it is very empty and there is almost no place for hiding.
Come in and sit down, and there will be quick-eyed men who will serve hot tea and snacks and fruits. When everything was in order, Aizen spoke and asked, "Forgive me for taking the liberty of asking, I don't know who the two are?" What is the so-called matter of my Zhenwei Dart Bureau? Feng Ji arched his hand and said, "The little old man's surname is Feng and his name is Sanhuai, this is my son-in-law Yang Gongzi." Before coming, Burhan instructed everyone to call themselves Yang Gongzi without their permission.
"Huh! It turned out to be Yang Gongzi! Look up for a long time, look up for a long time! Under the blue dye, I don't worship the brothers to give a face, which is the head of the dart of this Zhenwei dart game. I don't know..."Jiuyang on the rivers and lakes is just an honorific title, do you really think he knows you?" The dart game takes the route of friends, although I am not afraid of the enemy, but I am also afraid of breaking the road, it is better to show my intention first.
Feng Ji probably had dealt with people like dart games before, and stood up and said, "Hehe! Mr. Lan's dart head has been looking up for a long time, who doesn't know that this Ningxia Mansion is the best at this Zhenwei dart game? We have a batch of goods to go, I don't know the head of the blue dart...? "You can't break all the words, just say a little and leave a little, especially if you are in the dart business.
"Haven't asked the housekeeper what kind of goods he is, and do you need our Zhenwei Dart Bureau to pick it up?" Feng Ji looked around and knew about it. "You guys stand down first, I have something important to discuss with your guests!" The other dart masters and subordinates left, but this time it was Burhan's turn to say, "Mr. Lan, I'll just say it directly, you just need to tell me if you can take it or not, and it's over." I have 100,000 stone of grain to deliver. β
When I heard it, I thought it was something great, it turned out to be 100,000 stone grain, although the amount is a bit large, but it's not that I haven't seen it, so I don't need to be so careful! Burhan continued, "Originally, this 100,000 stone grain is nothing, but it needs to be cleared!" "Shhh Suddenly, Lan Ran gasped, and the imperial court repeatedly ordered that salt, iron, tea, and grain should not be allowed to leave the customs without permission, and those who violated the order were punished as treason. This little boy is really daring!
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just that you need the Zhenwei Dart Bureau to escort this batch of grain out of the customs, and it adds up to two or three hundred miles away, as for the coachman, horses, and how to clear the customs, you don't have to worry about it!" This list is really enough for ** people, and the blue dye began to struggle at this time, whether to take it or not? Pick it up and be afraid of being known - hey! That is 100,000 stones that will definitely be known as long as you are not blind, if someone knows that it is reported to the imperial court, then the Zhenwei dart game will be over, and the little arm can't twist the thigh. Don't take it, this is a big deal, according to the rules of the road, the dart board fifteen draw one, which is also more than 10,000 taels, the most terrible thing is that as long as you escort 300 miles to the sky. It's not that Zhenwei Dart has not taken over big deals, and there are bigger ones than this time, but none of them are easy, and the mileage of less than half a year or more than a year is really affected. Especially in this off-season, it is indeed not easy to meet such a customer.
Burhan saw the concerns of the blue dye, he took out the customs clearance document issued by Pi Wu to him to the blue dye, the blue dye opened it and saw that the seal in the middle of the text was very conspicuous, printed with the five big characters of "Ningxia Town Shou Liu", which scared him and shuddered, and quickly closed the text and handed it back to Burhan, "I didn't expect that the son was doing things for Liu Gonggong, forgive me for being clumsy!" "Since ancient times, the people have not fought with officials, even if they have the backing of the general's mansion, they are not willing to fight with those eunuchs, that is a group of greedy **. But then again, it would be much easier if the lieutenant guard was involved, no... It's just that they came to give silver.
After careful consideration, Aizen finally made a decision: "Okay, we have made this list." But let's say in advance, everything will be done according to the rules of the road. "Burhan is still not deeply involved in the world and doesn't understand what the rules of the Tao are that Lan Ran said, Feng Ji whispered that it is one out of fifteen. Burhan muttered in his heart, it wasn't that he was stingy, but he couldn't be atmospheric now. It's a bit of a mistake to think about losing 10,000 handfuls of silver all of a sudden... Ay! I can't say it, let's do it first! "Dare to ask Mr. Lan when will we be able to leave?" Lan Zhan didn't expect to really meet a anxious master, the more anxious the better. "It depends on when you are ready, and it will take some time for 100,000 stones to be loaded!" Burhan also nodded silently, yes, Pi Wu gave a rough calculation that day, to say the least, there was also a 3500 cart, fortunately there was that guy to help, otherwise even those carriages would not be able to get it themselves, let alone others.
Before leaving, Bulhan clenched his fists and said, "Well, your Excellency, just wait for our letter!" As soon as there is news, I will leave immediately, and I hope that Your Excellency will not disappoint me at that time. "Burhan is reminding them not to delay the master's important affairs because of 'you'." Don't worry, Childe, we have never made a mistake in this regard, so you can rest assured. β
Looking at the group of people traveling far away, a dart master next to Aizen said enviously, "Big brother, what are the origins of these?" You see, the guards are all murderous. Of course, Aizen noticed that they were not only murderous, but also had the temperament of a soldier. This was something he had not encountered among his previous patrons. "Listening to the accent is like a person from Beijing, but being bold should be everyone's background. Okay, I took this list and told the brothers to go back and prepare well, maybe when we will leave, you didn't hear people come and say don't we delay. β
"Don't worry, big brother! By the way, what exactly is this time? β
"It's grain, grain to be shipped out of customs." After Lan Ran finished speaking, everyone began to calculate, although the dart line is not a good hall, but there are rules, you can't commit crimes against the wind! "Big brother, isn't this a bit..."Lan Ran laughed when he heard this, and said to everyone, "This time the customers are not small, they have wedges." "That's good, if you have a wedge, you're not afraid to clip your tail."
