Chapter 71: The First Corrupt Official (1)

Today's first update.

The second watch is around 7 p.m.

---------------------------

Three days and two nights, but the bumps experienced were as long as three months. When the half-dry soil surface appeared in front of everyone's eyes, novices and veterans breathed a sigh of relief.

The tip of the ship came to a halt, and Mo Zi's heart that had been hanging for several days and nights was really half of it was put down, and the other half had to wait for the return trip. If God refuses to make people feel better, even if they improve and innovate, they can only contribute to the laying of a strong riverbed.

Going ashore, Mo Zi and Cen Er pulled up the cargo box that was towed behind the olive boat. When he turned around, he saw Bai Yu Zhong'an and the six of them looking at a big picture together.

"This place is called Steaming Xialing, fifty miles to the south, and it enters the boundary of Nandeyang City. You should know that if you go ashore from Pingjiang, you can go directly to Yangcheng. Mo Zi saw that he attracted the attention of the other party, and said, "If you look at the map of the Great Zhou, it is better to save energy, then there is only the name of the place of Surprise Fish Beach on it." No one came ashore from here, so how could they draw a map? ”

After a life together, how can you say a word, and the white feather queen brought, a bit like one of the three attendants, asked, "Is there a town near here where you can buy horses?" ”

"Surprise Fish Beach is uninhabited for hundreds of miles, I told you to bring enough dry food." Mo Zi shrugged his shoulders and said no.

"Fifty miles, no horses, how many days to walk? We will be in Yangcheng in two days. Shi Lei regained his voice.

"If you don't stop walking for a moment, with your footsteps, there is hope for two days. The weather is nice tonight, with a lot of stars, which is good for the road. "Mo Zi means, don't waste time, look for a direction, hurry up.

"Yangcheng is the closest big city to this place, and you can only find a suitable buyer for your private goods there. Excuse me, how do you ship the goods there? If you are trading here, the buyer will inevitably come by car. We can negotiate a ride. Bai Yu spoke politely, but it was very reasonable. They don't have horses, and neither do each other. They don't have luggage, and the other party has such a big cargo box.

Mo Zi lowered his head and pouted, this kid is difficult, and it is not easy to get past it.

"Forget it, seeing that you are very happy to pay the fare, I will also be kind. Later, someone will bring us a carriage, and you must not open your mouth, but follow us into the city. In fact, she thought of this inevitable result when she didn't let them take the horses on board. This is a dog skin plaster, although it is six hundred taels of silver, but there are more troubles.

At this moment, from far and near, the rolling of the wheels and the galloping of horses' hooves could be heard.

"Brother Mo, could it be that they are here?" Cen Er's face was happy.

"Two wheels and five horses." Shi Lei finished counting and said to the three people behind him, "Be careful." ”

The hands of the three people immediately pressed on the hilt of the knife on their left waist, and they drew the knife at any time and fought desperately.

It's another official, Mo Zi saw it in his eyes, and said indifferently, "Don't scare my friend away." ”

The tall grass hurrahed, and three horses and a two-horse carriage ran to the open space where the boat was parked. One of the horses was snorting, and on the saddle sat a little old man with a hippie smile, dressed in the light green uniform of the South German navy, with a helmet hanging diagonally on his head, full of military oil.

"Veteran, I thought you weren't coming." Mo Zi clenched his hands into fists, stepped forward to take the few unmanned horses in his hand, and asked the stinky fish to drive.

"I have something good to take, why don't I come?" The veteran turned over and hugged his fist back, "Brother Mo, your kid always looks like a little girl, you don't fart when you speak, Sven is a bird." After speaking, he showed a mouth full of scorched yellow teeth, silly music.

Bai Yu couldn't help frowning when he heard his rude words to people.

Mo Zi laughed, "Veteran, I look like a girl, and I don't drink like a girl." You forgot the last time we drank, and you lost even your pants. Lao Guan, you testify. ”

"Veteran, you can just talk about it." Lao Guan stepped forward and patted his shoulder, good brothers.

"This time, when you're done, let's compare again. Lao Tzu has a lot of it, and he can't drink you stinky boy. The veteran patted Lao Guan back, "Don't talk nonsense, I'll take the silver and leave, so as not to delay your serious business." ”

"Okay." Cen Er trotted over and offered a purse in both hands.

The veteran took it in his hand, weighed it, there was no broken silver, fifty taels of gold ingots, and grinned happily, "Okay, according to the old rules, the other half will wait for you to come back and collect it." Don't say that I don't help with just the silver, tell you, the wind has been tight recently, and there are Qin criminals on the Yangcheng side who have been exiled to the north, heavily guarded, beware of encountering them, and stealing your goods. And your ship is well hidden. Yangcheng came to the big official, and the top was so afraid that he was holding back the turtle, and the thief was acting like he was in the water every day, and he was tired of the bears under us. ”

"What kind of prisoner, exiled and heavily guarded?" After Mo Zi answered, he asked casually.

"The first corrupt official in Nande, the prime minister of the previous dynasty." The veteran thumbs up to the sky and spits on it, as if admiring and contempt.

The first corrupt official-Mo Zi is not interested. In her opinion, Nande is insatiable even for sesame bean officials.

"Huh? These few,, face raw. In fact, the veteran had already seen it, and only after receiving the money did he say, "Brother Mo, if you bring a businessman, the price will have to be calculated separately." ”

"Yes, yes." Mo Zi hadn't made a big deal yet, and he didn't want to provoke the little ghost at this time, so he turned around and smirked at Bai Yu, "Brother Bai, this veteran is our guardian Buddha, one hundred taels of gold is smeared with gold, fifty taels come, fifty taels go, the most fair." ”

As the saying goes, Hades is better, but the imps are difficult. How could Bai Yu not understand the sophistication of human feelings, and immediately asked Zhong An to offer fifty taels of gold.

The veteran knocked his teeth with his teeth, so hard that his face wrinkled with black folds, "That is, to give your brother Mo a face." ”

The ghost thief who squinted his eyes, the veteran stepped on the crab step, got on the horse, and drank away.

"Let's go back and forth, borrow him a carriage and horse, and he will earn two hundred taels of gold." The stinky fish sniffed its nose, its eyes turned upside down, and it couldn't be seen.

"That's why he said that the first corrupt official, I would like to see it." Cen Er couldn't see it, and at the same time he was helpless. Those who smuggle goods will have to spend money to deal with them.

Mo Zi was busy assigning tasks, and had already left the water snake on the Yongfu, and then left Lao Guan and Fatty Shrimp to guard the olive boat. The goods have been put into the car, and she sat in the driver's seat with the stinky fish and gave Cen Er a horse.

"See? There can be two in the back of the cart, one in it, and one horse, and at most four of you can go into the city. After Mo Zi finished distributing, he sat in the carriage and asked Bai Yu.

"Untie one of the two horses in the carriage, and bring one more." Shi Lei thought to himself, six people may not be enough, how can there be two less helpers?

"A horse pulls a cart of goods for five people, and I am probably exhausted to death halfway through." Of course, Mo Zi couldn't agree.

"Or, you bring one less." Shi Lei did not give up.

Is there such a reason? You're in my boat, and you're in my connections. I'm going to be ruthless and let you go as infantrymen. Mo Zi snorted three times and said impatiently, "Have you decided in the end?" If you don't go, we can go. ”

Shi Lei took a step forward and wanted to have a bull's temper.

Bai Yu stretched out his arm to block, and pointed to the other hand to the two entourages to stay in the olive boat, let Shi Lei ride the horse, and he and Zhong An sat in the back of the car, and the entourage who had asked where to buy horses was crowded in the car behind Mo Zi and Stinky Fish.

The stinky fish shook the reins, and the car moved.

"When we get to the city, we'll go our separate ways. Two days later, we met at the place where the boat was parked in the afternoon. ”

The road was uneven, the tail plate was narrow, Bai Yu grabbed the wheel, careful not to fall, and heard the words of the smuggler, and was not surprised by the cold string that drew the line in the voice.
