Early the next morning, without waiting for the Miantang to come out, I went to Mr. Wang's office to wait for him as promised, and I knew that he was also waiting for me at this time. When I got to the office, he was answering a phone call, he was talking to someone privately, I didn't want to disturb me too much, and I was going to go out the door and wait for him.

He looked up at me and signaled that I would stop and wait for him. Then, he looked up and asked me about my plans.

I said triumphantly: "I thought about it for a night yesterday, you only need to give me five or six hundred brothers, and equip them with guns, and dozens of boats at the same time, and I can set off immediately, and I will never let your precious Jin'er damage a single head, and you can rest assured in our news." ”

Master Wang looked at me silently, without saying a word.

"Five or six hundred brothers? And guns, plus ships? The old man looked at me with a playful smile in his eyes, as if he thought I was very funny.

"That's right," I replied confidently, "that's enough, no more, and more is wasted." ”

Old Man Wang stretched out his opponent and posed the numbers "five" and "six": "I'll give you this ......"

I said with a bitter face: "Fifty or sixty people? God, this number is not enough at all, there are so many on the mountain, you have to fight, you are not going to play, you have so many brothers, you are too small to be afraid, this amount must be insufficient, increase a little more, and then add a hundred brothers, at least 200, this number can not be less. No matter how little I can't guarantee the safety of that Miantang, this number is enough for me to protect my capital at most. ”

Old Man Wang smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "One!" ”

I was extremely frightened this time, and my mouth formed an O shape, and this one by one did a dead rhythm!

"Huh?" I was stunned......

"It's impossible, I can't ask for your money, you want me to die?" I said.

I thought to myself: Could this be a trap? Is he going to take advantage of this to attack me, isn't it, didn't that Miantang also go, won't he even pit him, what is his purpose? How can you give me money so happily, usually like that Miantang to guard against giving me cash and silver, what kind of rhythm is this.

It's the rhythm of finding death! I hit the muzzle of the gun.

"Shall I give you my back? I don't earn your money, okay? "I've begun to retreat, in order to save my life, money and love are all floating clouds, life is gone, what kind of money to talk about, let alone love, it's just a dreamer.

"It is said that I have prepared the money for you, and besides, we have negotiated the price and the contract yesterday, who asked to go yesterday, and who was brave enough to go? If you're going to quit at this time, don't you think of me and my contract as something? If there is no integrity at all, is it understandable that the matter between Miantang and Bai Wei can also be talked about being a husband and a wife? ”

I was stunned on the spot, this old zombie, it turned out that he put down the coil yesterday, and he had successfully hooked me, and I was stunned while standing in his trap.

I think my cat Jiujiu was actually calculated by him, careless, really careless.

I gritted my teeth and said, "I'll return the money, I'll go!" I'll do it. ”

Old Man Wang smiled, and took a sip of water happily: "Okay, have the courage, sure enough, I didn't misunderstand you, that Miantang will leave around 10 o'clock, he will definitely not let you go, you have to be wronged......"

I was extremely vigilant, and looked at him with distrust: "What grievances, it's better to say them directly." ”

"When Mian'er goes later, I will prepare a gift for him in advance to pay tribute to the other party, and at the same time there will be a box of good goods, so you only need to hide in this cargo box, and when you get on the boat, you can wait until you go up the mountain and then come out of the box, I have a gun ready in the box, you can use this for self-defense, and the brother who sent you on the ship will not say half a word."

"This ...... It's a good idea, I'm small. ”

The old man continued: "It's not just that, Cat Jiujiu, I need this person to be witty and calm. ”

I stood up and thought for a moment. "I like this plan, old man, I'm worried that Na Miantang will be angry when he finds out, you know that sometimes that Miantang is sometimes very opinionated, and ten cows can't pull it back." ”

Lao Tzu grinned: "No, that Miantang is a very gentle man, or how to lead you by the nose, you are poisoned, if it succeeds, I will pay you another fish as a reward." ”

I looked at him in surprise: "One more?" ”

He nodded: "There are 6 in total, now I will pay you one first." With that, he took out a sparkling gold from the drawer and put it on the table, I swallowed uncontrollably, but it didn't affect me to take it quickly, and bit it hard with my teeth, and carried it! I took a deep breath, "Deal." ”

The old man had other purposes, he continued: "You are going to investigate, not to suppress bandits, so your purpose is very clear, cooperate with Mian'er and find out the good news." ”

I said, "But I don't know what the situation is on the mountain now?" I heard that they colluded with others, and they didn't even pay attention to the three major enjoyments of Sanxin Company, so the purpose of this trip is still full of crises! ”

Old Man Wang didn't know what he meant, and said calmly: "Mian'er's woman, she will have to take care of major affairs in the future, how can it be absolutely safe to mix temples or run the rivers and lakes?" If you want to be safe, you can open a small restaurant or sew clothes, and you get what you pay for. ”

I thought for a moment and nodded, "That's right...... Now there is also a cost to a fight. ”

Mr. Wang was very satisfied with my obedience, and then continued: "We were originally a family with the same roots and branches, and the boundaries were only separated fifteen years ago, so the relationship between our two families has always been very good, and I am still childhood friends with the current gang leader on the mountain, and since he left, his son has not been in much contact with each other, and the relationship is still maintained, so don't break this relationship balance when you go, this is one of them; The gang leader on the mountain, the 'Raptor Crossing the River', Hu Tianba, had met several times in the early years, he was a native of Chongqing, and his personality was very proud, I wrote a letter to him, and you happened to hand it over to him when I handed it over, and said that when I was free, I invited him to go down the mountain to my home for a small reunion. If he's not free, that's fine, and it's also great to move around the two families a lot. With that, he handed me the letter.

I put the letter away, put it in my bag, nodded and said: "Okay, don't worry, I will meet the wind and rudder, see people talk about people, talk nonsense when I see ghosts, when I encounter difficulties, I will blow up mountains and build bridges in rivers, in short, your affairs will be done." ”

Old Man Wang smiled knowingly and said with a smile: "Ghost girl, no wonder Bai Wei wants to be bullied by you." ”

"Hey—" His mind was so active that I didn't follow his rhythm.

When I was about to discuss it with him, he changed his words again and said solemnly: "Remember, this time I am here to cooperate with the investigation, not to fight!" So, it's just you and that Miantang! You appear as a woman in Mian'er, with more sincerity. ”

Why do I always feel that this Lao Tzu in front of me has too many conspiracies, seven seven and forty-nine bends and ten bends after ten bends. Before I found out his purpose, in order to save the money, I reluctantly said, "Okay......"

Old Man Wang said again: "Of course, I will also help you." ”

"How can you help me?"

"I'll keep an eye on the six ponies with you, and won't let them starve until you get back. I'm responsible for their safety. You can rest assured of this. ”

"Good! One last question: When do I put it in the box? How to get out? ”

"You are not stupid when you ask this question, there is a canvas on one side of this big box I have prepared, and because of the recent increase in rain on the mountain, the box is fastened with ropes. For safety reasons, your box will be on board before the moment Mian'er gets on the ship, so that you will not be crushed under other boxes and be the first to unload. ”

I said, "So, I'm hiding in it from the beginning, so how do I open the box?" ”

"Yes, Mao Jiujiu, in the process, when the time comes, you only need to cut the rope and open the goods, and when Mian'er finds out, you will already be on the mountain, and you will be arrogant and so on, I guess you are good at this." He'll be angry soon, and trust me, everything will be arranged and nothing can go wrong. ”

A thought flashed through my mind, making me shiver and shudder: "How long am I going to stay there, will I be suffocated to death, will I be frozen to death?" ”

Old Wang and his grandfather smiled: "No, it won't be too long, I opened holes in the box, which has a breathable function." It won't suffocate, it won't freeze to death, and there will be some small biscuits in it, and you will be very comfortable. However, it may be squeezed a little, and the rest is very good. ”

After hearing this, I finally decided to follow his advice, and in two days I could get another 5 pieces of gold, and I reconsidered the whole plan from all angles, and it worked, I thought, as long as he didn't lie to me.

The old man looked at me, and when I answered, my eyes looked out of the window, and I could see the bridge in the distance, and the two lovers on the bridge were whispering from me, and I seemed to see the happy flush on the girl's face, she was a happy woman, I thought, I made up my mind, and I met the old man's gaze and said, "Okay, I agree to do it." ”

I immediately dispelled the tension at the table.

"We're running out of time," said the old man, his calm face turning to me, "and soon Mian'er will leave, and after you say goodbye to him, I will delay him for five minutes, and you can get into the box and tie the canvas cover in these five minutes." Hopefully, you're not claustrophobic. ”

I shuddered, my claustrophobia! It follows like a devil, this secret is only known to Na Miantang, I decided to fight!

"Don't worry about me...... How long does it take to complete the trip? ”

"I had to stay in there for at least an hour, and about five hours up in the mountains."

I shuddered, trying to control.

"How big is the container?"

"You can sit in there, and there's something in there to cover you — just in case."

I began to feel a little unsteady and thought: I can't go wrong, he has vouched for it, but what if it ......

"You still have about half an hour to prepare, you go and prepare."

"Okay." I don't know how I got out of the room.

Damn claustrophobia, I'm about to forget my fatal heart disease, I'm about to forget about this link, what should I do? I'm going to die, that suffocating feeling is going to kill me!

I pretended to be asleep for a while, and I felt him gently caress my face and muttered, "Wait for me, I'll be back in two days." ”

I rolled over: "Hmm. “
