Liu Ze sighed in his heart, celebrities are celebrities, and their psychological qualities are stronger than ordinary people, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the sky fell yesterday, but now he is calm and calm, even if Mount Tai collapses in front of him, he will not move.

But he didn't know, Jia Xu stayed awake all night, thought about it for a night, although he fell into Liu Ze's trap, didn't he also give himself a hundred taels of gold a year, one hundred taels of gold is not much, and it is not too much to say less, there is no problem in solving the family's food and clothing.

However, he is so smart that he is sure that Liu Ze has other plans for himself, and he only values his ability to speak foreign languages. Jia Xu is still quite complacent about his Wen Taowu strategy, but it is a pity that the current world is not his place to use, is it possible that Liu Ze really has the wisdom to see his potential clearly? Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to set such a trap for himself to drill. Judging from this trip to the Western Regions, Liu Ze is by no means a simple businessman, he has the air of a king who reigns over the world, and he is under his hands, and he does not know whether it is fortunate or unfortunate.

However, Jia Xu still hated Liu Ze's methods, and secretly made up his mind, the contract stated that he would only do translation, that was good, there was nothing to do after arriving in the Central Plains, he ate rice every day and didn't work, he was happy, so he let your one hundred taels of gold every year be wasted, and asked me to give you advice, you wait slowly.

The main intention is determined, Jia Xu naturally calmed down, the saint is not a cloud, once he comes, he will be safe, calm down, and enjoy his success. Liu Ze is also a smart person, so he doesn't know what kind of calculation Jia Xu is playing, and the two tacitly chatted for a while.

Pan Feng came over to report that he had packed up and whether he would leave immediately.

"Let's go!"

Liu Ze didn't have the heart to delay here, as soon as he walked for nearly a year, there were many things waiting for him to do in the Central Plains, and he didn't know if Jian Yong alone could be busy.

The caravan went all the way to the east, walking still the Hexi Corridor, but at this time the Hexi Corridor was not a peaceful place, although the Xiongnu were defeated and moved westward, but I don't know that many robbers and bandits emerged from there, plundering the past merchants from time to time, Liu Ze's caravan was not also robbed by many robbers.

But these robbers can be regarded as blind, they are the opponents of this team, and as soon as they fight, they will be killed all over the field, but the sweat and blood of the thousand horses are a big move, attracting the bandits and robbers to go forward one after another. Liu Ze wasn't worried, he didn't pay attention to the 100,000 Hun iron horsemen, and there were only a few thieves, so why worry about it. But he was very strange, in just one year, he didn't know that so many thieves and robbers had emerged from there, and he remembered that he didn't meet any thieves when he walked the Hexi Corridor last year.

Liu Ze has brave generals and strong soldiers, naturally he doesn't care about the robbers, but the merchants in their past are not so lucky, once they are robbed by robbers, they will be robbed of their property, and even their lives will be lost.

On this day, Liu Ze and his entourage arrived at the crossing of the Yellow River, but saw a group of robbers robbing unarmed pedestrians.

The group of robbers numbered a great number, about forty or fifty people, and a large number of pedestrians were waiting for the ferry, and the robbers were looting at the ferry. The robbers all held bright steel knives in their hands and forced passers-by to hand over their belongings. Although there were many pedestrians, most of them were women, children, old and unarmed, knowing that these robbers were murderous without blinking, and no one resisted, most of them obediently handed over their belongings, hoping that these strong men would leave quickly, and many children were so frightened that they cried.

A pockmarked robber was obviously the leader of this gang of thieves, he found a handsome young man from the crowd, stretched out his hand, ripped off the young man's hat, and his hair fell down, it turned out to be a pretty girl, and laughed evilly: "The little lady is very handsome, and it is very good to be the wife of Lao Tzu." ”

Several robbers around echoed the voice, and the girl was frightened, and she retreated again and again. An old man next to him, who was about the girl's father, stood in front of him, begging bitterly: "Good deeds, uncle, my daughter is the lifeblood of the old man, please be merciful to the uncle, let her go, the money-money is all for you." ”

The robber leader knocked down the handful of copper coins that the old man had brought over, and shouted: "Lao Tzu, I have a fancy for your daughter is her creation, don't be embarrassed, get out of the way!" ”

The old man stopped in front and begged: "Good uncle, spare her." ”

The leader of the robbers was furious, and he took up his sword and slashed down.

At this moment, Liu Ze had already arrived on a flying horse, and seeing that the situation was urgent, he waved the horsewhip in his hand and whipped it on the wrist of the bandit leader. The robber leader screamed, the steel knife flew out, Liu Ze's whip was fast and ruthless, and it was estimated that his right hand was useless.

The leader of the robbers was astonished and angry, and cried out, "Who is it? ”

Liu Ze jumped off the horse and said coldly: "In broad daylight, openly looting and killing people, do you know where the king's law is?" ”

The leader of the robbers was shocked, only to find that Liu Ze was just a single person, with no other blade in his hand, only a horsewhip, and he couldn't help but be arrogant, and shouted viciously: "There is a way in heaven that you don't take, and there is no door in hell to enter, brothers, chop him!" ”

The group of robbers swarmed up and surrounded Liu Ze.

Liu Ze sneered twice, a few thieves also dared to do it with themselves, and they cried with three punches and two kicks, and even crawled with a rolling belt, and the robber leader saw that Liu Ze was not easy to provoke, so he ran away in a panic, and he didn't admit defeat on his lips at the end: "Boy, you wait-you wait-"

Liu Ze didn't chase them, but turned around and said to the old man: "The old man is frightened." ”

The old man knelt down for Liu Ze excitedly, and kowtowed again and again: "Thank you for saving your life." ”

Liu Ze hurriedly helped him up and said: "The old man doesn't have to be polite, it's just that the road is uneven, but these robbers are too arrogant, and they openly loot in broad daylight, this place is not far from Jincheng County, why haven't you even seen a single officer and soldier?" ”

The old man shook his head and sighed: "The government is too lazy to take care of these small things, if it weren't for the excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and the people would not have a good life, there would be so many robbers there!" Yu'er, come and worship Gong Xie. ”

The girl answered, stepped forward to say a blessing to Liu Ze, Liu Ze saw that the girl was born with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, but she also had a bit of a look.

At this time, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei rushed over from the rear team, and saw that the group of robbers had already fled, Zhang Fei said with regret: "These rabbit cubs, they are running very fast, otherwise let them also taste my old Zhang's fist." ”

Liu Ze smiled: "It's been a year of fighting, haven't you had enough fun?" ”

"That is, it's really hard for me to have no arms and legs in the past few months. Hey, big brother, why did you let them go? ”

"A few thieves, who were originally also people from good families, were forced by life to be thieves, forget it, teach them a lesson, why kill them all."

"Big brother, I haven't seen you so soft on the Huns."

"The Xiongnu are aliens, and they are the enemies of my Han Dynasty, and it is a crime to be merciful to them, and these Han people with the same roots and ancestors must not be killed."

"Having said that, these people may not be able to repent after they flee, but I am afraid that they will still block the road and rob, which will be harmful to innocent people and passing merchants." At this time, Guan Yu interjected.

"The thieves in the world are swarming, how many can we cure by ourselves? However, this incident gave me the idea of forming a dart game. "Along the way, Liu Ze really has plans to build a dart game.

"What's a dart game?" Zhang Fei was curious.

"It is to organize some people who know martial arts to provide protection for merchants, commonly known as darts, but it is not free, and a certain fee is charged according to the distance and the value of the goods."

Guan Yu nodded and said: "Okay, if you can provide security protection for merchants, in today's world, it will inevitably make major merchants rush to it, and I think this dart business will be done." ”

Zhang Fei laughed and said: "Big brother just has a lot of ideas, and he can find business opportunities in a small matter." ”

As he spoke, the ferry was close to the pier, and people rushed to the ferry, and the frightened scene was still vivid, and they all wanted to flee far away. Liu Ze said to the old man's father and daughter: "Old man, please." ”

"It's better for Engong to ask first." The old man said with sincere fear.

"There is a large caravan behind the bottom, wait a while to cross the river, the old man will invite it first." The old man was very grateful, and the little jade girl glanced at Liu Ze, her face was full of shame, and she wanted to stop talking, so she had to go on the boat with her father, but she peeked at Liu Ze again.

Watching the ferry leave, Zhang Fei smiled and said, "Big brother is a hero to save the United States, so you don't have any other ideas?" ”

Liu Ze glanced at him and said, "Third brother, what do you want?" ”

"I see that little jade girl admires your eldest brother a lot, why don't you keep it and give others a chance to repay her kindness?" Zhang Fei laughed rather obscenely.

Liu Ze pointed at him and said, "You - I have served you." "When did Zhang Fei become so poor, Liu Ze really convinced him.

Zhang Fei heard Liu Ze say something that he didn't understand, his eyes widened, he really couldn't understand it, and said loudly: "What? ”

Liu Ze ignored him anymore and walked over to greet the caravan, Zhang Fei turned his head and Guan Yu saw that Guan Yu was also at a loss, shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands, and said that he didn't understand.

After crossing the Yellow River, the caravan marched towards Longxian, and there were still many bandits along the way who wanted to fight Liu Ze's caravan's idea, but without exception they were disgraced, because Liu Ze's orders were only punishments for them, and there was no killer, so most of the thieves could save their lives as long as they knew the difficulties and retreated.

As for some hard-fought and rampant robbers, without exception, they died under Zhang Fei's hands, hooking Zhang Fei's fire, do they still have their lives? Liu Ze thought about it for a long time on the road, and the idea of setting up a dart bureau is becoming more and more mature, and it seems that as soon as he returns to Luoyang, he has to hurry up and prepare.
