Chapter 15: The Carriage and the Horse

There are only thirty miles from Xingning Town to Luoxing City, and you can walk back and forth in a day, but it is nearly six hundred miles to Starlight City, if you walk for half a month, you may have to take half a month, and the mountains and forests are dense on the way, the cliffs and rivers are dangerous, and the thieves who rob the road are all risks to face, so the safest way is to spend money to hire a car and a horse dealer.

The carriage and horse shop is specialized in long-distance transportation, both carrying people and selling goods, and the profit of going back and forth is quite lucrative, so almost every carriage and horse shop has the shadow of a big force behind it, and the general thieves dare not provoke, and the convoy of the carriage and horse shop is escorted by a master, as long as the star beast is not too powerful, it can be safe.

Biaofeng Carriage and Horse Shop is not only the largest carriage and horse shop in Xingning Town, but also quite famous in the entire Wenyue Kingdom, almost every town has its branch, and it is rumored that the boss of Biaofeng Carriage and Horse Shop is the royal family of Wenyue Empire, which is not big.

At this moment, Lin Xiaogou was standing in front of the door of the Biao Windmill Carriage Deal, only to see an endless stream of people coming in and out, and the registration team was discharged to the gate, and the business was quite hot.

Lin Xiaogou, as a high-quality young man in the 21st century, naturally would not do anything to cut in line, and honestly walked to the back of the line to line up, and the two big men with big shoulders and round waists at the door of the carriage and horse shop withdrew their sharp eyes staring at him.

"It's worthy of being a windmill, even looking at the door is so majestic and sharp!"

After about two teas, Lin Xiaogou finally entered the reception hall, only to see a row of counters placed in the hall, and behind the counters there were three beautiful women in uniform who were in charge of reception and registration, and the efficiency was quite high, and soon it was Lin Xiaogou's turn.

"Lin Xiaogou, the two of you, Starlight City!" Lin Xiaogou watched in the back for a long time, and he was already familiar with the process, so he immediately reported his name, number of people and destination.

The beautiful women with slightly baby fat cheeks on both sides glanced at Lin Xiaogou and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, the convoy to Starlight City is full, do you want to report for the next trip?"

Lin Xiaogou couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and asked, "When will the next trip start?"

"Our convoy to Starlight City is once a month!"

Lin Xiaogou was suddenly petrified, mud horse, this shabby place is really poor and backward, and the intercity "shuttle" actually takes to go once a month!

"Do you still want to sign up, if you don't bring goods, you can pay 20 gold star coins per person!" the beauty smiled.

Lin Xiaogou couldn't help but blurt out: "It's so expensive!"

Immediately attracted attention, many of which were ridiculed, and some even sneered in a low voice.

The professional quality of the baby fat beauty is obviously very good, and she still smiled sweetly: "Guest officer, our Biaofeng car shop is safe and fast, from Xingning Town to Starlight City, this line has been operating for more than ten years, and we have never been on a business trip. ”

"Hehe, boy, if you are too expensive, you can go to those car dealers, but it is difficult to say whether you can reach Starlight City safely!" said one person behind Lin Xiaogou.

Although this guy is yin and yang, what he said is not unreasonable, money is a foreign thing, personal safety is the most important thing, and it is also appropriate to spend more money, but it will take too long to wait for a month.

Lin Xiaogou has another layer of worry, that is, the cheap brother-in-law Xue Zhu who is worried about his own life, although that guy is fat like a pig, but he is not a pig brain, he must have guessed that he is plotting against him, if he recovers, I don't know what way to deal with him, so it is best to leave Xingning Town while the goods have not recovered.

"I'm sorry, I'll go back and think about it. Lin Xiaogou smiled at the baby fat beauty, turned around and walked out the door.

Lin Xiaogou left the Biao windmill and horses, and just walked ten meters down the long street, there was a rapid sound of footsteps behind him, and a slightly childish voice shouted: "Big brother, please stay." ”

Lin Xiaogou turned around in astonishment, and when he saw the person behind him, he almost fell headlong.

I saw that the man behind him was looking like a tiger, wearing a black short, with his biceps high and strong like a calf, half a head taller than himself.

Lin Xiaogou couldn't believe it, the young and childish voice just now came from the big piece of hair in front of him, and asked suspiciously, "You called me just now?"

The short-hit man scratched the back of his head and said, "I called it!"

"I'll ...... Your voice is so distinctive, little brother, when did you wean?"

The big man's face was flushed, and he laughed twice!

Lin Xiaogou saw his naΓ―ve and bowful appearance, but he felt a little good, and asked, "Stop me?"

The big man nodded violently and said, "Is the eldest brother going to Starlight City?"

Lin Xiaogou asked suspiciously, "How do you know?"

The big man's eyes suddenly lit up and said, "Big brother, you really went to Starlight City, great, come back with me!"

Lin Xiaogou cried and laughed: "I said brother, are you pulling Zhuang Ding or something, where are you going?"

The big man stuck out his tongue in embarrassment and said, "It's my mother looking for you...... No, no, it was my mother who asked me to catch up and ask you if you were going to Starlight City!"

Lin Xiaogou was a little confused, and asked weakly, "I know your mother?"

The big man shook his head honestly and said, "I don't know, my family drives a horse, do you want to take my family's car to Starlight City?"

Lin Xiaogou couldn't help but suddenly realize that it was the "pheasant car" that pulled the business, and was about to say no, but saw a beautiful woman coming from a distance, and the big man immediately said happily when he saw her: "Mother, this big brother is really going to Starlight City!"

This beautiful woman is about thirty years old, she is also dressed in a short dress, and her gestures give people a heroic feeling, she walked up to her and smiled: "Hello, in the lower Mei, the post pear carriage and horses, our team will leave for Starlight City tomorrow, do you want to have a companion?"

Lin Xiaogou's heart moved, and he asked, "How did you know that I was going to Starlight City?"

Bian Mei chuckled: "We have a little bit of eyesight in this line, the Biao Windmill Horse Shop only has one trip to Starlight City every month, and next month is the Mu Xing Festival, there are many people who go to Starlight City, and it is estimated that the number of places in Biaofeng Bike Company this month is about the same, and then look at the expression of the little brother when he came out of it, so I dared to guess that you didn't book a place, so I asked Xiao'er to come and ask." ”

Lin Xiaogou had to admire the thoughtfulness of the young woman in front of her, and nodded: "You guessed right, the quota for the Biao Windmill to Starlight City is indeed enough." ”

Bian Mei said with a smile: "The Muxing Festival is the grandest festival in the mainland, if you miss it, you will have to wait for next year, we have just two places in the Yili Car Company, and the number of people is enough to leave tomorrow." ”

Lin Xiaogou couldn't help but be a little moved, but it seemed to be riskier to take the "pheasant car".

Bian Mei obviously saw Lin Xiaogou's scruples, and said solemnly: "Although the little brother can rest assured, although the scale of our Yili carriage is far less than that of Biaofeng Carriage, it has also been registered in the town guard yamen, and it belongs to the regular car dealership. ”

"That'...... How much does it cost?"

"Ten Venus Coins per person!"

This is twice as cheap as the Biao Windmill and Horse Shop, Lin Xiaogou was hesitating, and Bian Mei said: "Ten Venus coins, we will bear the food and lodging on the road, and the last two places are gone!"

Lin Xiaogou nodded and said, "Okay, I'll sign up!"

The big guy next to him suddenly jumped up with joy and shouted excitedly: "Mother, great, you can leave tomorrow!"

This cargo is comparable to the size of an adult, and making such a childish act looks unbearable.

Bian Mei smiled embarrassedly at Lin Xiaogou: "He is my son Meng Nan, but he is strong, but he is only twelve years old." ”

Lin Xiaogou's jaw almost fell to the ground, I strangled it, this big guy is only twelve years old, oh my God, what hormones did you eat to grow up, Yao Ming is going to be willing to lose, he is really a veritable macho man.

Bian Mei took out two bamboo plaques from the bag on her waist and handed them to Lin Xiaogou, saying, "Go to the Yili car shop before tomorrow." ”

Lin Xiaogou took the bamboo card and asked suspiciously: "That's it, you don't have to pay first?"

Bian Mei waved her hand and said, "No, it's not too late to hand it in when you leave, remember not to be late." After saying that, she pulled her son, who was a head taller than her, and turned away.

"What a bold woman!" Lin Xiaogou said secretly, put away the bamboo card, and walked towards the entrance of the vegetable market, where the little maid was still waiting.

......

Yixiangju is the best inn in Xingning Town.

At this moment, in a certain upper room on the second floor, Xue Zhu was lying on the bed with a pale face, and his body was covered with a quilt on a hot day.

At this time, there was a thin middle-aged man standing in front of the bed, about forty years old, his old face was as cold as water, and his eyes were staring gloomily at Xue Zhu's four followers.

I saw the four attendants kneeling in panic, their bodies trembling like a sieve, and they didn't even dare to breathe.

At this time, the room was opened, and a big man walked in and said respectfully, "Fourth Master!"

The thin man's expression slowed slightly, and he asked in a deep voice, "Has Lin Tianyou's rabbit cub been found?"

The big man nodded and said: "He sold snacks at the entrance of the vegetable market in the morning, and went to the Biaofeng Carriage and Horse Store at noon, it seems that he planned to leave Xingning Town and go to Starlight City, but the quota for the Biaofeng Carriage Shop this month is enough, and he didn't book it in place." ”

The thin man snorted coldly: "God help me, little bastard, it is heaven that you don't go, hell has no way to vote, immediately find out the carriage and horse line that the kid voted for." ”

A fierce cold glint flashed in the eyes of the big man, and he nodded: "Fourth master, don't worry, that kid can't run away!"

"Fourth uncle, you must avenge your nephew!" Xue Zhu on the bed wailed.

"Useless thing!" the thin man scolded, "I can't even deal with a piece of waste!"

Xue Zhu cried and said with a sad face: "My nephew didn't expect that bastard to be so insidious, he used to be like a play!"

The thin man said: "If you don't change your gluttony, sooner or later you will have to plant it!"
