Chapter 674 From this moment on, the blood began to flow
Chu Qianqiu left Shangjing and walked slowly on the road.
He had no sense of urgency at all, but rather a rich man who had returned to his hometown.
If there is one thing that is the most crowded in this line, it must be the most carriages.
Before leaving, Chu Qianqiu bought a full twenty carriages, and then asked the Fan family to build a special stainless steel treasure chest, secretly installed countless mustard seed rings in it, and confirmed that there was no problem inside and out, so he hired a large number of horsemen and went on the road with his entourage.
With so many carriages on the road, people are imaginative, and his reputation has deteriorated.
"Although this Chu Zhongwu is a very good person, he must also be a big corrupt official."
"Nonsense, Chu Zhongwu has only been in Beijing for a few days, what can he embezzle?"
Public opinion among the people is noisy, and both sides insist on their own opinions.
However, Chu Qianqiu didn't take everything away, he just didn't want the mustard seed ring to be discovered.
With so many mustard rings, once exposed, it will definitely trigger countless conjectures.
In order to keep it a secret, Chu Qianqiu naturally wanted to pack all the mustard seed rings and take them away.
Of course, he also left a large number of gold, silver, jewelry, elixirs, spirit soldiers, treasure armor, divine crossbows, heavenly machine birds, and so on.
It was enough for her to arm a hundred guards in Shangjing and arm them to the teeth.
Although these quantities seem a bit amazing, they are just all the belongings in a [Treasure Pavilion], with the current identity of Chu Qianqiu, releasing these treasures will not cause huge suspicion, and it belongs to the configuration that the top magnates can have.
"Where the hell did you get all this gold, spirit soldiers, and crossbows?"
"Even the guards around my father-in-law can't muster so many spirit soldiers and armor."
Yao Leng took a deep breath and asked in disbelief.
When Chu Qianqiu took her to the basement, there were one million taels of gold, one hundred spirit soldiers, two hundred treasure armor, fifty divine crossbows, five hundred arrows, a heavenly bird, and all kinds of jewels.
】
"These are the rewards of Her Majesty the Empress."
"The eldest sister also needs to reward her subordinates, arm her personal guards, and help me manage my connections."
"This trip to leave Beijing, there are still many nobles who have not made friends, so please ask the eldest sister."
Chu Qianqiu said without changing his face, now these treasures are not of much value to him, it is better to use them for the eldest sister to play.
Let her understand that opening resources is so cool!
"If Uncle Tianqi, General Lan, and General Jiang need help, you can also give them a little profit."
"The eldest sister should pay special attention to the Shence Army, General Dou is not a peaceful person."
Chu Qianqiu reminded seriously.
"The Divine Army?"
"I'm afraid that the Shence Army also has something to do with King Jing."
"This time, the Shenwu Army withdrew from the battle for the Praetorian Guard, and there is also a hidden danger of luring wolves into the house."
"After all, the person who inherits the Praetorian Guard is the person of the Dou family."
The last time Chu Qianqiu was in the Hanyuan Palace, he heard the connection between King Jing and General Dou, and felt that the situation in Fengzhou was extremely complicated.
King Kong Temple, Shence Army, Buddha and Demon Descendants, King Jing, Great Xia, multiple forces are intertwined.
"I see, I'll focus on sending someone to investigate him." Yao Leng agreed without hesitation.
The authority of the Queen Mother has further risen, but the hidden dangers of the Dou family are very great.
Because the person who will inherit the throne in the future is the child of Chu Qianqiu and the eldest princess.
Once the Empress Dowager dies, the Shence Army will encounter the embarrassing scene of the original Shenwei Army, and they do not have enough interests to represent and support the central government.
Therefore, it is not strange that the Dou family has a relationship with King Jing, people have no long-term concerns, and there must be near-term worries.
"I'll leave everything to my eldest sister."
After Chu Qianqiu finished his order, he took a large amount of belongings on the road.
Instead of obeying the law of not revealing money, he hired a large number of grooms, retinues, and dart masters, and went on the road in a good way.
The whole style highlights an underbeaten.
Chu Qianqiu seemed to be announcing to the world.
Come and rob it.
You see, I have prepared so many belongings, and I won't rob them if I don't rob them.
grabbed a handful, and it was fattened directly.
Even the Fuwei Dart Bureau under the Guangming Temple, the big shopkeeper in charge of the house persuaded him bitterly:
"Lord Zhongwu, your miraculous skills are world-renowned, and the villain admires them very much."
"But with so many people on the road, isn't it enough to hire only 40 dart masters who are small enough to store gas."
"If you have any mistakes, how can the villain explain to the Zen master?"
"Or I'll transfer 200 monks to you, no, 500!"
Fuwei Dart Bureau is also a famous dart game in the Shenwu Dynasty, and the lay disciples of Guangming Temple basically take the dart game route to be promoted, and many Jianghu casual cultivators will also join it.
"Enough, as long as I have someone to watch over the carriage and prevent some people from petty theft, it's enough."
"Look at how much it is, you're welcome, it should be calculated according to the market price."
"Chu and Zen Master Yuanjue have some friendship, and we must not let you suffer."
The big shopkeeper of the Fuwei Dart Bureau could only say helplessly:
"The dart master who has a small amount of energy, take the official road route of Lingzhou, at least a month and a half, 50 taels of silver a trip."
"At the same time, customers need to provide food and accommodation along the way."
"If the route is changed and the journey is longer, additional silver will be needed."
"40 dart masters took this trip, a total of 2,000 taels."
"When encountering bandits, dead and wounded, you need to bury and burn silver."
The price of the game is calculated on a per-trip basis, taking into account the average income level of a martial artist.
The martial artists of Xiaocheng and Dacheng, they do martial arts hall teaching, sparring, and serving as a nursing home for the landlord's family, and they also have two taels of silver a month.
If you take into account the risk of escorting goods and thieves along the way, as well as the profits of the dart game, the price is naturally much higher.
"No problem." Chu Qianqiu readily agreed.
So there is this scene now-
Dusk is approaching, the huge convoy just wants to settle in the nearby villages and towns, for the people of Fuwei Dart Bureau, the villages and towns along the way, how long they need to walk, they are already familiar with the road.
But now it has become desolate, and a steady stream of displaced people, some carrying hoes, some carrying bamboo poles, is pouring like a tide.
At first, the dart masters thought it was a nearby villager and didn't pay much attention to it, and even Chu Qianqiu thought that it was a villager who was rushing home from the market.
Because none of the homeless people approaching the convoy knew how to cultivate, and they didn't even have internal strength.
This is like an ant on the ground, no matter how keen Chu Qianqiu's perception ability is, he will not care about ordinary people who don't know martial arts at all.
One of the dart masters shouted enthusiastically.
"Fellow, are you from Putuo Village?"
"Are you coming back from the market today?"
Then he was greeted with a raised hoe.
Are these thinly dressed homeless people actually using hoes to fight martial arts masters, are they crazy?
The dart master froze.
Even bandits know how to pick up swords and put on leather armor, and these outcasts are more like beggars than bandits.
Then they picked up the hoe and killed it.
"Kill!"
These homeless people suddenly seemed to hear the command, their eyes were empty, but they were full of killing intent, regardless of the sword, regardless of the martial arts master, just charge forward.
"Damn, are they crazy?" A dart master was smashed in the head and died instantly.
The other dart masters were shocked.
"Raise your shield!"
"Defend your line!"
"Shoot the arrows!"
Chu Qianqiu's personal guard Changyang Guang's face changed, and he quickly began to counterattack.
Burst! Burst! Burst!
Today, Putuo Village is full of blood.
