The closer he got to kill Hukou, the more cowardice Ning Sheng's heart became. He has always been just a young man who sells goods, but now the big boss treats him as a shopkeeper, and the goods on the back of the pack horse, according to his estimate, are thirty or forty thousand taels of silver, and they will be handed over to him with a slap.

The caravan walked in the canyon between the two mountains, the canyon walls were rocky, the convex places were covered with snow, the recesses were dark in color, and then the verdant pine forests whimpered under the cold wind.

On the towering city walls, the soldiers guarding the city saw the people from a distance and whispered to each other.

"Coming to the caravan?" The tone was full of suspicion.

The caravan got closer and closer, and it became clearer and clearer in the eyes of the soldiers.

"Really! It's really a caravan! ”

When the caravan came to the gate, Ning Sheng had the courage to shout before the gate: "I am a Ming person, this is the caravan of the Ming Dynasty!" We're going to get in! ”

The soldiers on the city wall responded loudly: "Where is there still a caravan in the grassland in the Ming Dynasty?" ”

Ning Sheng spread his hands helplessly and said, "I am Ning Sheng from Ningjiazhuang in Youyu County, I have been doing business in the grassland, and many people in my mouth know me!" ”

On the castle tower, the soldiers laughed at each other, and no one paid any attention to them. The caravan stopped in front of the city gates, helpless.

There was no war between the Ming and the Chahars, in fact, during the day, the city gate that killed Hukou was not closed, but no one came out of the pass for several months, and Lingle was in strict trouble, and the garrison Zhang Guang simply ordered the city gate to be closed.

The soldiers of the city tower rushed to the garrison and announced: "A caravan has come from the grassland outside the pass, saying that it is a Ming person. ”

"Which other merchant has a caravan outside the Cypriot? I haven't been out of here for half a year, isn't it a bandit disguise? ”

The soldier scratched his head and said, "I don't see it, there are only thirty or forty men, and sixty or seventy pack horses and goods are blocked in front of the city gates!" ”

Zhang Guang thought about it for a while, and always felt that there was something strange about this matter, and said: "It's when the wind is tight, don't make trouble for yourself, ignore them." ”

"Are you going to drive them away?"

Thinking of the arrogant Chahar people who now occupy Naturalization City, Zhang Guang was worried about causing trouble, and said, "No! ”

The caravan was shelved under the city gate, and the soldiers on the city wall were giggling and fighting with Ning Sheng, and his throat was smoking. If he didn't use the identity of the caravan, he would not be able to enter the customs at all, and the Ming Dynasty issued an order a year ago to strictly prohibit the Han people of the Tumut Department from returning to the Ming Dynasty.

From morning to afternoon, Ning Sheng paced back and forth under the city wall, as long as he didn't enter the customs, his fate was like that of a stray dog. The horse thief uses him as a treasurer, if the horse thief does not use him, will he return to his previous fate? The cavalry shuttling back and forth at the foot of Montenegro made him understand the strength behind him, and he had both confidence and fear.

In the afternoon, the soldiers who had changed shifts in the castle tower entered the tavern in the collection and began to talk about it. The killing of Hu is not big, and it spreads in less than half an hour.

In the northeast corner of the group, a young man ran quickly into the backyard and shouted: "Shaodong, I heard that there is a caravan from outside the Saismen!" ”

It has been half a year since the caravan went out of Hukou, at this time the Lantern Festival has not passed, the war in the capital has just passed, and the businesses in Daming are basically in a state of semi-closure, and most of them only leave some men to watch the door, waiting for the situation to change. Only Liu Quan, the young owner of Dexiang Pavilion, stayed in the collection as usual.

Dexiang Kuiliu's family is well-known in Youyu County, taking advantage of the convenience of the local area, it has gradually expanded over the years, but it is far from the big businesses in Jiexiu and Qi County that have been operating in Hukou for many years. Liu Quan's father, Mrs. Liu, went out of the West Exit to save up the family business for decades, and knew the difficulties and risks, only \u5

EOC Wangliu can take a fame test, and there is no need to eat this risky meal. Liu Quan didn't like the eight shares, he had not been able to win the exam for several years, and he was used to seeing the officialdom walking on thin ice and not inferior to the businessman, and the son inherited his father's business and took over the business.

Hearing the shouting outside, Liu Quan closed the book in his hand and said, "Liu Rui, say something slowly." "Liu Rui is also a member of the Liu family, and Jin merchants usually give priority to their own family when they choose their partners.

"I heard that there was a caravan outside the gate, but the officers and soldiers guarding the gate would not let it in!" Liu Rui said as he gasped after entering the door.

"Caravans?"

Liu Rui nodded again and again.

Liu Quan put down the book in his hand, stared at the ice skate hanging on the eaves, and said after a while, "Follow me to see!" ”

The snow on the street had cleared up, and Liu Quan put on a fur coat and walked towards the city wall with Liu Rui.

When the soldier saw Liu Quan coming, he greeted happily: "Young owner, come here!" ”

Liu Quan smiled and nodded, and asked, "I heard that there is a caravan from outside the city gate?" ”

"Yes, the order of the lord, you are not allowed to enter the city, hang them first!"

Liu Quan took out two pieces of broken silver from his sleeve and handed them over, saying, "Can I go up to the city to have a look?" ”

The two soldiers took it and said happily: "Young owner, please!" ”

Liu Quan stepped onto the city wall, carefully looked at Ning Sheng who was scurrying left and right under the city, and asked, "How long have they been here?" ”

"It's half the morning!"

After pondering for a while, Liu Quan turned around and went straight to the garrison mansion under the city wall, he walked very fast, and Liu Rui behind him couldn't keep up, so he trotted.

Garrison the palace.

"You want to get them in?" Zhang Guang was taken aback when he heard Liu Quan's intention.

Liu Quan nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "Ning Sheng was originally my De Xiangkui's buddy, he was exiled in the grassland during the war years ago, and now he can't let him enter the door when he comes back!" ”

Zhang Guang stared at Liu Quan with a pair of eyes and said, "You didn't lie to me? You know that if something goes wrong at this time, it can't be solved by spending a little money. ”

"How dare I lie to my lords!" Liu Quan took out a silver ticket from his sleeve and quietly handed it over.

Zhang Guang peeked at a \u7

73c face value, five hundred taels! This is a lot of money. If you want to say that the caravan outside the plug belongs to the Liu family, Zhang Guang doesn't believe it if he is killed, but the silver ticket in front of him is the most genuine.

"Good! Release! ”

Outside the city gate, Ning Sheng was ready not to enter the customs, and only waited for it to be later in the morning to lead the caravan back to Montenegro. Suddenly, the soldiers on the castle tower shouted loudly: "Listen to the caravan under the city, your lord has an order, let you enter the customs, but you must hand over your weapons and the goods will be inspected!" ”

Ning Sheng hurriedly replied, "Okay! ”

Seven or eight soldiers pushed the wheels of the city gate inside, and with a piercing creaking, the two iron-clad city gates opened, and two rows of soldiers were neatly lined up inside, and Zhang Guang personally rushed over.

Ning Sheng led the way in, and the guards confiscated the bows, arrows, and swords that the guards carried. After the pack horses rushed into the city, the soldiers looked through the bags one by one and confirmed that they were correct before letting the caravan into the set.

Ning Sheng walked up to Zhang Guang, bowed and saluted, and said, "Thank you for letting me go!" ”

Zhang Guang squinted his eyes and looked at Ning Sheng carefully, and asked, "Liu Shaodong's family said that you are his buddy, right?" ”

"Ahh Ning Sheng was a little hesitant, and then agreed: "Exactly!" ”

"If there is no Liu Shaodong's family, you don't want to enter the city today!" Zhang Guang smiled knowingly at Liu Quan and turned to leave.

After taking Zhang Guang away, Liu Quan stepped forward and arched his hand: "Contemptible Liu Quan, can you be honored to invite Mr. Ning to the trumpet for a gathering." ”

Ning Sheng hurriedly returned the salute and promised: "Thank you Shao Dong for your help, let's stay at the guest house!" ”

"Okay, I'll come back to you when Mr. stays!"

After a long period of depression in the mouth of the killer, Ning Sheng finally found a Yuelai Inn, which was a bit open, everyone lived in, unloaded the goods, and asked Xiao Er to take the pack horse to the livestock shed. There were few men in the inn, and they were too busy to breathe, so they finally settled them down at nightfall.
