Chapter 45

The first student to get off the bus was just getting off at night, and the second one was kicked off at dawn. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Yang Li was the third to get off the bus, the time was noon the next day, and when he got off the car, he was also stuffed by the soldiers of the Golden Scale Army with an iron token engraved with the number "1365".

The token is in very new condition, and it should have been made recently.

Yang Li estimated that this was specially used for the students when registering the results of the battle, so as not to be recognized by the officials in the various county offices, and it could be regarded as a kind of protection rule specially formulated by the Ministry of War for itself.

After getting out of the car, Yang Li found himself in a field, surrounded by grain fields with no edge in sight. It's just that the autumn harvest time has passed, and the ripe crops in the fields have been harvested, leaving the ground full of straw.

There is no map, a completely unfamiliar place, and it seems that this plan of action of the Ministry of War has indeed been brewing for a long time.

Although he didn't know where he was at the moment, Yang Li was sure that since there was a road here, it must not be too far from the county seat, and the danger level was not too high.

According to the original rules, students are not allowed to enter the county until they have achieved actual results, otherwise they will be punished with warnings. If it is found that there is any ventilating behavior such as contacting the post station or acquaintances, it will be directly expelled.

However, Yang Li still felt that for his own safety, he had to act in a different place.

There are so many people in the military department, even if those who have relatively high official positions can be trusted, but what about the various officials below? Maybe there will still be mistakes in any link and their whereabouts will be exposed.

So the first thing Yang Li did when he got out of the car was not to look for the whereabouts of the invading wolf barbarians, but to find a nearby farmer, ask where the county seat was, and then go directly.

After this inquiry, Yang Li also learned that he was currently in Changyu County, and there was an ancient new county between him and the territory of the wolf barbarians.

When you come to the gate of Changyu County, you must routinely go through the verification of the guards guarding the city. In order not to reveal the identity of his university students, Yang Li did not take out the identity token of the Yuan Controller or Xingchangbo, but accepted the inspection like ordinary people.

Because Yang Li was dressed simply, he carried few items with him, but he passed without any accidents.

After entering the county seat, Yang Li came directly to the carriage and horse shop, ready to take the car to other places.

The boss of the carriage and horse shop was a middle-aged fat man, and when he saw that the person who came was an ordinary poor boy, he didn't pay much attention to it, and said without raising his head: "There is one last trip today, which is to Guxin County and Yangwu County, if you want to go somewhere else, just wait for tomorrow!"

Yang Li didn't answer immediately, but first glanced at the map hanging on the wall.

Yangwu County is located in the inner area, at the junction of Cangzhou and Fengzhou, even if there are wolf barbarians infested, I am afraid that there are not many of them. Guxin County is similar to Muyuan County, which is directly adjacent to the territory of the wolf barbarians, and is most severely attacked at this time of year.

Yang Li didn't think too much about it, and asked directly: "How much does it cost to go to Guxin County?"

When the fat boss heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Yang Li and reminded: "Little baby, that Guxin County has not been peaceful recently, and we only dare to go in five cars." If there is no urgent matter, I advise you to wait a while before going. ”

Since the other party was kind, Yang Li no longer kept smiling, but replied politely: "Thank you Uncle for reminding me, I only go to Guxin County this time, and I don't go to other remote places, so there shouldn't be any safety problems." ”

Everyone met in Pingshui, and it was enough to persuade such a sentence, since people had already made up their minds, the fat boss would not say more. After collecting fifty yuan, the fat boss led Yang Li to the last carriage in the backyard, and then said that he would leave in about half an hour.

The spatial pattern of this civilian carriage is naturally much smaller than that of the four-horse chariot specially dispatched by the Ministry of War.

But even so, when Yang Li entered, he found that there were already four people sitting inside, and it was only after six people could sit that he would set off.

On the left are two sweaty men who are closing their eyes and recuperating, and one of them is still snoring. On the right is an old man in his sixties, leaning against a little girl of eleven or twelve years old, who seems to be the granddaughter of the old man.

Although this old man had a bitter face, his body was relatively clean, so Yang Li asked softly, "Can I sit here?"

The old man just glanced at Yang Li blankly, and then nodded.

After a while, the sound of the fat boss and a young man talking outside the carriage was heard again.

The young man said with a big grin: "Boss Ma, tomorrow you will give me all five carriages, how about going directly to Cangzhou Mansion City?

The fat boss seemed to be a little embarrassed: "There was nothing wrong with this, but the business you want to do is not so glorious after all." My carriage and horse business is a serious business, and if you make it like this, I will inevitably be pointed at behind my back, and I really don't want to. ”

The young man sneered twice, and continued with a shy face: "Everyone is in business, so why should you have trouble with money? If you don't say this, I won't say it, who knows what I'm doing with this carriage?"

The fat boss still shook his head.

The young man gritted his teeth and seemed to have made up his mind: "After this deal is completed, in addition to the original double fare, I will share 30% of your profits!

When the fat boss heard this, his eyes lit up, but he was still a little hesitant.

The young man saw that the other party's attitude had loosened a little, so he continued to instigate it, and even raised the three-component red to forty or fifty percent.

The fat boss finally couldn't resist this endless offensive, and finally relented: "Kong Cheng, then let's talk about it, this matter can only be done this once, not as an example." Also, you paid the fare to Guxin County this time!"

After Kong Cheng paid the money, he also got into the carriage where Yang Li was.

As soon as he saw the two big men covered in stinky sweat in the car, Kong Cheng's brows suddenly wrinkled into a pimple. While covering his mouth and nose, he turned his head to look at Yang Li, and muttered in a rather unkind tone: "Boy, let's change positions!"

Yang Li closed his eyes and didn't pay attention.

Kong Cheng raised his eyebrows and was about to have a seizure, but found that at this time, the two strong men beside him had already woken up and were looking at this side with unkind eyes.

He was shocked, and hurriedly smiled: "Two big brothers, I don't mean anything else, it's good to sit here, I won't change it." ”

Finally the carriage was full, and it wasn't long before the convoy of five carriages began to set off in earnest.

That Kong Cheng had just stopped for a moment, but after seeing the granddaughter of the old man in the corner, his eyes began to flicker again. After a while, I saw him ask in a gentle tone: "This old man, why are you going to Guxin County now? I heard that it is very chaotic over there, so I advise you not to go." ”

When the old man heard this, his already sad expression became a little more gloomy.

Regarding the question of the man in front of him, the old man just shook his head and did not answer.

However, Kong Cheng did not give up, he pretended to sigh, and then said in an extremely regretful tone: "You old man go to Guxin County, it is not a big problem. But I heard that the wolf barbarians like to attack eleven or twelve-year-old girls the most, the skin is good, the meat is tender, and the taste is the most refreshing......"

Before he finished speaking, the little girl in the corner was already clenching her grandfather's arms, her body trembled slightly, and her little face was so frightened that she lost blood.

The old man also looked frightened, and couldn't help muttering, "What can I do?

Kong Cheng used the technique of wanting to capture and indulge at this time, and after saying this, he kept silent and leaned on the carriage to sleep.

Yang Li suddenly felt a little angry in his heart, and he vaguely understood the purpose of Kong Cheng's trip to Guxin County: to accept orphans and women who had died at a low price, and then sell them to Cangzhou Mansion at a high price.

Most of the old uncle's family in front of him has already been attacked by a wolf barbarian, and now he is taking his granddaughter to join his relatives.

So he was targeted by Kong Cheng.

This little girl is well-behaved, fair-skinned, and most of them will be extremely smart when she grows up, as long as she is carefully cultivated, she will easily become the top brand in Yihong Courtyard in the future, and the sale price in Cangzhou Mansion is not low.

This is simply making a fortune!

However, Yang Li can't easily reveal his identity, this is not the time to act rashly, so he just pondered in his heart, or wait until he gets to the place to remind this old man, and give some money or something by the way.

The sky is getting dark, and the carriage will keep rushing at night, if nothing else, it will enter the territory of Guxin County tomorrow afternoon.

Before I knew it, five hours had passed, and it was late at night.

Almost all the people in the carriage had fallen asleep, and the little girl was sitting in her grandfather's arms, with some undried tears in the corners of her eyes.

"Boom!"

At this moment, there was a sudden loud noise not far ahead, which woke everyone up from their sleep.
