Chapter 025: Crime Without Ben
No cost crime
Iron tomatoes, iron potatoes, and iron green peppers are known as the "three fresh iron on the ground" in Lingzi Village. Not because of anything else, just because the three of them are very good at playing treasures, and they don't look like an old boy, which can always give people a sense of novelty and freshness. If they weren't born in the mountains and could only rely on the "mountains" to eat, they would have been able to make money selling juggling in the county.
Since they each got married, married and had children, they have gradually matured a lot, and their hearts have gained a lot. The three of them are still good buddies and "like-minded" friends. Since embarking on the road of being bandits, they have been determined to do one line of love and stick to their posts for the rest of their lives.
But the years are not forgiving, the legs and feet are gradually unfavorable, and the waist is gradually rickety. So I want him to pass on his own craftsmanship and go. Uncle Potato and Uncle Green Pepper don't have any arthritic rheumatoid in their legs and feet. Di Sanxian and the others actually secretly decided to pass on their skills to their sons, and when the real people can't do it, they can also let their descendants have a craft. Don't go hungry.
The idea is naïve, and the implementation is serious.
Early in the morning, the sky was bright, and Iron Tomato took his son out with the dew. Because Lingzi Village is more than ten miles away from the wild road trade road, and the mountain roads are not easy to walk, if you don't go out early and wait until noon to get to the place, not to mention the big sun, you will not only miss many deals.
The pedestrians who come and go between the two counties are either buyers and sellers, or visiting relatives and friends. The distance between the two counties is about a day's foot, and a horse-drawn carriage ride on a donkey or mule may save an hour or two. Pedestrians who come and go, as long as they are not in a hurry, like to get up early and hurry up, and after the noon sun, they are in a hurry to catch the road. I want to take advantage of the cool time to walk more, and when the sun is in full bloom, I will hide in the shade of the trees and take a nap in the afternoon.
Therefore, if you can't be lazy, you must get up early and return late, and if you are not diligent, you will not be able to make money.
Iron Tomato and Iron Tiger came to the place where they robbed early, the first rays of dawn in the morning
Shine on your way in the low. The two of them came earlier than usual. So Iron Tomato pulled Iron Tiger to hide next to the low bushes next to the wild road and sat down, that position was just right, others could not see them, but they could faintly see others walking on the road. There are no pedestrians on the road now. So Iron Tomato pulled the Iron Tiger, untied the big blade pinned to his waist, and unfolded the cowhide cloth that wrapped the big knife. The broadsword was polished with terrazzo and glowed white in the sunlight. The back of the knife is broad and angular, and there are nine round holes, the size of quail eggs, each with a swarthy ring.
Iron Tomato gently picked up the knife, and the two adjacent iron rings quietly collided together, making a crisp sound like "clanging". Sounds good!
The iron tomato spread the kraft cloth on the ground, which appeared long and wide. The two of them sat on the floor.
"Huzi, this knife is a treasure passed down from the thieves who have been doing it for several lifetimes - the Xuanbei White Fang Nine-Eared Knife. Although this treasure knife can't do the same thing, it can split mountains and stones, sharpen iron like mud, blow hair and break hair, and kill people without blood, but it can support the scene and add courage to itself. With this diamond, we have dared to take this porcelain job for generations. ”
After Iron Tomato finished speaking, he saw eyes full of longing and envy. So he took out a kitchen knife from his own belt and handed it to his dear son, "Give it to your son, today you will take this kitchen knife that is also handed down by your ancestors, and complete the first robbery in your life! Don't care too much about the superficial things, your father and I used this kitchen knife to rob the first penny in my life." ”
Tie Hu reluctantly took the kitchen knife his father gave him, and said to his father innocently and sadly: "Daddy, but it's ......."
"But what! You boy, you are still young and strong-blooded, give you a quick knife, and you won't get into some trouble!" said Iron Tomato.
"Daddy, I want to say, we have a kitchen knife at home, how can my mother cook for us today?" Tiehu said innocently.
"This ...... This one...... You don't have to worry about it, there are always more ways than difficulties. Iron Tomato told his son very unwillingly. Because what he is usually most afraid of is the child's mother, the child's mother gives Iron Tomato task indicators every day, and if he can't achieve it, he can only not go to bed and sleep with him, Iron Tomato has been sleeping with Iron Tiger for more than a month. Today, the child's mother saw that she took the child out to practice, and she showed kindness as long as she could hand over ten yuan today, but she usually had to pay one hundred yuan. Looks like I'm going to sleep with this kid again today. Iron Tomato glanced at his son with a sad face. He took out a cigarette pouch from the basket and smoked it.
The back basket of the Iron Tomato was not large, which was equivalent to the current suitcase. Dry food and tea for noon, nothing else.
Iron Tomato smoked a cigarette pouch and pot while gesturing to Tie Hu, "Do you see the crooked neck willow tree on the left, do you look at the straight and tallest poplar tree on my right hand, the distance between more than ten steps is ours, after a while, whenever someone walks into this range, we will go out and ask people for money, if people go out of this range, this deal will not belong to us, don't chase it, you know!"
Tiehu looked at the sides of what his father said, and also saw the two trees that his father said, and nodded.
There are family rules, and the state has national laws. There are no rules. There are also rules for being a bandit, and if you break the rules, you want to mix in this place. The wild road between the two counties is about a day's walk - twenty or thirty miles. Almost four or five miles away from this road, there will be an ambush of a gang of bandits. It is hoped that pedestrians will leave a little money to buy roads.
It's ridiculous to say that there are not many people in a gang of bandits, just three or four. All four of them are a bit of a lot. Three people like Di Sanxian are just right. Those who have the courage can suppress and bluff people, and one person can do this thing. It's just that such people are more talkative, but they earn more than gangs of three or four people.
If you pass through this wild road, no matter how many people you encounter in the robbery, you can give a penny, which is the same as one yuan. The number of people passing by each day is limited, and the daily income of the bandits is also counted. There are many bandit gangs, and there are fewer bandits in front of each bandit. There is also a risk of going it alone. When there are many passers-by, the more courageous people are, the stronger they are, and if they don't give money to buy the road, it is small, and it is big to beat you up. The bandits can't be reasoned with yet.
Walking the official road between the two counties, Taiping is Taiping, but the distance of turning left and right is seventy or eighty miles, walking for two days and two nights, and taking a carriage for five hours.
Moreover, the tariff road maintenance fee is about ten yuan, which is three or four yuan cheaper than the wild road business road. This is also the reason why there are robberies on the wild road, and there are still people who are willing to go.
