Chapter 379: Principled

"Lord Wang, you have worked hard." Lao Wei's car was in front, and he was a native of Meilong Town, and it was his responsibility to negotiate with the robbers.

"Oh, you also know that we work hard, don't you, the day of the big sun is behind the pile, is it easy for us? Yes, you seem to be an honest man, and you can leave half of the contents of the car so that you can have an explanation at the master's house. The bandit leader grinned, and said with a mouthful of yellow teeth, with three points of sarcasm in his expression, but his tone was very sincere, as if this was what he should have done.

"Uh, my lord, it doesn't matter if you take all the things in my cart, it's really not okay, you can just pull the carriage away." Lao Wei said with a smile - usually when I come back from Yangzhou, the car will pull some goods such as silk, porcelain, tea, etc., but this time I came back in too much hurry, and the shopkeeper Luo didn't have time to stock up, so there was actually nothing in the car, as for the carriage, the car was used for long-distance running, it was not worth much, and it was not a pity to have it, the horse was worth a little money, and it could not be bought without a dozen taels of silver, the question was what was the use of a thief asking for a horse? If you really have that patience, whether you hunt or farm, it is enough to feed and clothe, so why run to the mountains to be a robber? So if the robbers are just making money, he is not afraid, anyway, this place is not far from Meron Town, as long as the people are okay.

"Well, so generous? What do you mean? "It looks like a big grin, but it is impossible to be the leader of these robbers without a brain, looking at Lao Wei's dress and the complexion on his face, he is obviously a long-term worker of a large family, neither being a housekeeper nor being the master, so willing to cooperate, it is really a bit abnormal.

"Hehe, Lord Wang. You are wise, two cars, you leave one, leave us one, adults and children, it is not easy to travel all the way, what do you say? Lao Wei laughed with each other and discussed.

", staring at Lao Wei's face, the expression on the bandit leader's face seemed to be smiling, and he was not in a hurry to speak. staring at Lao Wei's heart, his body couldn't help but be lower, and his smile was more humble.

"Haha, I can't see that you are very bold, and you dare to play tricks with me, hmph, who talks here, is it you or me?!" The bandit leader's face changed suddenly, and his eyes widened. With a flick of his wrist, the big ring knife in his hand rattled, and the sharp blade reflected the cold light in the harsh sunlight.

"Ah, you. Of course it's you! "Those who can reason with you are not called robbers, in front of the steel knife, Lao Wei was so frightened that he almost didn't sit on the ground, and hurriedly took two steps back. He said without hesitation.

"Hmph, it's good to know, brothers. Search for me! The leader of the robbers snorted coldly, shook his steel knife, and commanded his subordinates to get into the car and search, and the seven or eight robbers had their own division of labor, some were responsible for guarding the road before and after, some were responsible for pulling the people in the car aside to take care of them, and some were responsible for rummaging through the boxes and cabinets in the car to search for things -- they were robbers, not called Hanako, they didn't rob anything they saw, and they were not interested in moving anything that was worthless.

Holding Zheng Xing's arm tightly, Tan Xiaotian hid his body behind the butler, but revealed a pair of eyes staring at the bandit leader, with deep hostility in his eyes, Zheng Xing was half-sideways, one hand around the child's shoulder, his eyes moved on the robber leader and the horse workshop that was being searched, his heart was nervous, but his appearance was strong and calm.

The robbers who searched the car did not find anything worthy of robbery in Lao Wei's car - bedding for sleeping and resting, several steamed buns and pickles for hunger on the road, sauce and meat, a clay pot with half of cold water left, and a blanket in which money was found, but there were only a hundred or so copper plates, if the thieves robbed and encountered such masters, they would definitely starve to death within three months.

"Old guy, when you're out of the house, don't you know how to bring more money?!" Although this little money is not eye-catching, but the robber still put the copper plate into the pocket prepared in advance, as for the other things, they all threw them on the ground, and then angrily threw the blanket on Lao Wei's body, feeling still angry, and raised a foot and kicked Lao Wei's waist, Lao Wei was caught off guard, and fell a butt pier, fortunately, he is a person who often does manual work, and his body is very leathery, if he is replaced by Zheng Steward, maybe he will have to fall bad at that time.

"Maotou, what are you doing?" Seeing the situation of this house, the leader of the robbers shouted, "We are robbers, not bullies, people honestly let you rob them casually, why are you kicking people if you have nothing to do?!" Thieves are also thieves, what kind of ability is it to bully honest people! The robber named Maotou who scolded was extremely embarrassed, so he had to help Lao Wei up from the ground, and reached out to pat the dirt on the other party's body.

"Don't, don't, I'll come by myself, I'll come by myself." Where did Lao Wei dare to let the other party shoot the soil for himself, he was busy blocking it with one hand, and quickly patted it on the ass a few times with one hand, as for whether the soil was cleaned or not, where could he care.

"Maotou, it's not easy to return his money to him, and he earns hard-earned money." This bandit leader also has a sense of justice, or he may really look down on the dozen or so copper plates, or maybe he looks at Lao Wei pitifully, waving his hand, and signaling Maotou to return the money.

"Ah, Boss, aren't we robbers? Why should the stolen money be returned? Maotou's brain didn't seem to be very bright, and he couldn't turn his brain for a while, so he asked the bandit leader in a daze.

"Your boss, my boss? Listen to yours or listen to mine? Isn't the money you robbed still money, isn't it okay to use it as an apology for you kicking someone's foot? The robber leader glared and scolded again, Mao Tou had no choice, and reluctantly could only take out the copper plate that had not yet been hot and stuff it into Lao Wei's arms, his own money was lost and recovered, Lao Wei was pleasantly surprised, Mao Tou was lost and lost, and his face became extremely ugly.

"Okay, who is pulling a donkey's face to see? Why are you standing stupidly, there's a car there! Seeing that his subordinates were in a low mood after being trained, the leader of the robbers then cursed again, and Mao Tou thought about it too, raised his legs and jumped into the second carriage and got into the vehicle, and continued to do what he had to do.

This time, he gained a lot - Zheng Xing came to ask Qiu Ju's opinion to let Tan Xiaotian go to the capital, so he brought a lot of gifts with him, including silk from Suzhou and Hangzhou, tea from West Lake, porcelain from Jingdezhen, silver bracelets, and gold earrings, all of which were packed in a red lacquered box, all of which were turned out by hair.
