Chapter 0150: The White Ghost Reappears
Looking at Nock who came over, the people of the caravan hesitated for a moment, but still spoke: "Brother Nok, this is not good. Fei Meng is also from our village, so if something happens to him, we can't explain it! ”
Hearing this, Nock sneered and glared at the man.
"If you don't feel good, stay with him, or go to Mr. Blue. I'm not the leader of the caravan, and it's not me who makes the decision, I just beat him up when he doesn't like it, and I don't have the right to expel him from the caravan. ”
"Besides, he has hands and feet, and the caravan doesn't move fast, and if they really want to keep up, can Mr. Blue still be able to drive people? But if they don't follow themselves, you're going to carry them yourself? ”
"Don't be stupid, they're all adults and have their own ideas. Your kindness may not be appreciated by others. Just as I am kindly persuading you now, you may not listen to me. Let's go, you make your own decisions, I won't accompany you. ”
"Faemon is right, I'm an outsider, what do you do with your business. All I need to do is protect Mr. Blue, and then let him take us out of this hellish place, whether you are dead or alive, why should I care too much. ”
"Leo, don't rub it off, let's go, people may not appreciate it after they are broken!"
"Here, young master!"
Leo, who had been pretending to be wooden, ran up with a smile and followed Nock towards the front of the group.
At the front of the team, there are Blu's most loyal followers, who have been running with Blue for many years. It won't be provoked by Fermont in a few words.
The people in the middle of the team were all people who saw that Blue had made a fortune in the back, licking their faces and begging to join, but they didn't taste any sweetness, they belonged to the grass on the wall, and they were swaying.
On the contrary, this guy Feimeng, who has been running a business with Blue for two years, thinks that he is familiar with the road, knows the route, and knows how to run a business to make the difference, so he wants to set up another door. Eat the big head yourself.
Because as a team leader, you can draw 20% of the commission after the caravan members have earned it!
He planned to organize a caravan on his own and draw thirty percent of it himself.
Therefore, he didn't want these people who had not yet traded to follow Blue, and if they tasted the sweetness, they might not be willing to do it with him again.
That's why he entangled a few young people and promised to only draw one percent of their commission in the future, in exchange for their support for him to set up another business.
And this time, the business is running in order to attract more people to join.
Unexpectedly, he thought it was a perfect excuse to make trouble, but it was rudely ruined by the kid named Nock.
Fei Meng, who was difficult to ride a tiger, was in a dilemma at this time, and he didn't know whether to get up and follow the large army, or leave with his own people.
He knew the trade routes, and he was not afraid that he would not find the way without leaving the army.
The Kingdom of France was divided into north and south because it was blocked by the Dokosom Mountains from west to east.
To get from the north to the south, you need to cross the Dokosom Mountains.
However, the only way to the south of the Dokosom Mountains is a broken valley in the Dokosom Mountains, and that broken valley was built into a fortified city, and in order to pass through the fortress, not only identification and passes, but also customs clearance taxes.
Another way to get from the north to the south is to take a boat from the north side of the Dokosom Mountains and go ashore from the Atlantic Ocean to the south.
In the northernmost part of the westernmost part of the Dokosom Mountains is the town of Kagara, which has regular boats to the south of the Fran.
And in the westernmost south of the Dokosom Mountains, there is a bustling village that is the destination of regular boats in Kagara.
As a result, Bratis, although a small village, had a well-developed transportation industry, and every household either ran a carriage business or a hotel business.
As a result, Bradis is a nationally known village.
Blue, on the other hand, has found a third shortcut to the south!
Taking advantage of the frozen rivers in winter, Blue found a river running north and south in the steppes of the northern Dokosom Mountains.
The river is dangerous in autumn and summer, not only is the river fast, but there are also many giant pythons and strange water monsters in the river. Ships are impassable.
But in winter, the river is frozen, and the giant pythons in the river will disappear, and those water monsters don't know whether they are hibernate or migrated, in short, they don't appear.
As long as you don't step on the weak spot of the river and fall into the ice cave, it is safe at other times.
It is precisely because of this that Blue will farm in spring, summer and autumn, and then start preparing northern goods after the autumn harvest, and wait until winter, taking advantage of the cold winter and early spring, to travel back and forth between the north and the south, and sell the goods that are inconvenient because of the heavy snow, and earn the difference.
Now that Femmon thinks he has mastered this trade route, he naturally wants to make more.
He could have sold different goods from Bru to other cities and make more money.
Even, if he has the opportunity, kill Blue's caravan, and his caravan will be able to enjoy this benefit exclusively.
But all this came to naught, and he was unwilling.
Just as he was thinking nonsense, three young men beside him suddenly shouted "Mommy". Then chase after the team.
"Bastards, you three traitors! Give me back! ”
Feimeng jumped up angrily, pointed at the backs of the three and scolded, just scolding and scolding, he suddenly felt a chill in his back.
He turned around and looked, and suddenly felt cold all over his body, and wanted to open his mouth to shout for help, but was frantically drilled into by white shadows from his mouth, nose, and ears.
He trembled like a sheep's madness, and then slammed into the snow.
And the team moving forward in front of them was still silent because of Blue's sudden anger.
A scream frightened them.
"Help! The white ghost is coming! ”
"Help us! We don't want to die! ”
At the back of the team, I saw the three young men in front of me chasing after the team like crazy, and behind them, there was actually a group of white shadows!
"Damn! It's really a white ghost! ”
"The white ghost is coming! Run! ”
The team was in chaos, everyone panicked, and some even pushed down the people in front of them, just to let themselves run to the front.
Nock kicked a man who tried to knock him down, shouting, "What for! If you want to run, you won't run from the side! Whoever pushes someone again, I will break his leg and see how he pushes! ”
Blue also spotted the riot and rushed back.
However, after learning that there was a white ghost chasing after him, he also panicked.
"Mr. Blue, there is only one way to go, let everyone drop their goods and flee for their lives with dry food and water. Otherwise, die! ”
Nock has a pertinent suggestion for Blue.
"That's right! That's how it should be! Blue hurriedly repeated Nock's words.
But Blue and Nock underestimate human greed.
What they are carrying on their backs is the wealth they can't earn in a year, how can they lose it.
People always think that they will be the lucky one, that they will definitely escape with the goods.
As a result, except for a few businessmen who were most loyal to Blue, the others did not listen to Blue's advice at all.
"Forget it, it's hard to persuade the damned man, Mr. Blue, it's time for us to go. Although we may not be able to outrun the white ghosts, as long as we can outrun this group of greedy ghosts. ”
As he spoke, Nock patted Leo on the shoulder and said, "You don't want to throw away these burdens, you plan to take them with you!" ”
Leo smiled, threw away the goods on his back, scooped up the water bladder and dry food who he didn't know and stuffed it into his arms, carried the ice armor shield on his back, and then picked up Blue with one hand, and strode forward.
Speechless, Nock kicked down a guy who wanted money, snatched his water bladder and food, and then ran towards Leo.
At the same time, he did not forget to shout to the smart people who lost the goods: "Keep up, don't care about this group of dead money!" Don't get lost! ”
After saying that, he ran away in a puff of smoke.
Nock and Leo took the lead, and Bru, who was being carried, realized that these two had been pretending to be pigs and eating tigers!
Fortunately, their caravan didn't think about the black hand, otherwise, they were afraid that they would finish the game before they met the white ghost.
"Run over there!"
Blue, who reacted, couldn't take care of others anymore, and when it came to life and death, people were selfish.
"Don't worry, those few followers of yours are smart people and will follow our footprints!"
Nock saw Blue's guilt and hurriedly comforted him.
When Blue heard this, too, as long as his loyal followers were okay, his caravan could still be formed.
Anyway, they made a lot of money last winter, and they lost a batch of goods, not to the point of breaking their bones, they can afford to lose.
Besides, it's not that you can't make money when you flee to the south and work to earn money to buy some goods and go back, but you don't earn that much.
Although it will certainly not be possible to take this trade route at that time, it is much cheaper to take a regular boat back to the north shore than to take the Broken Valley Fortress.
This is also the reason why the main cities of the Kingdom of France are located in the northeast and southeast, otherwise the west would be more convenient for transportation by water.
However, the freight from the west to the east will increase the cost, so the north would rather take the land route than the water transport, and two more freight charges will greatly increase the cost.
With Blue to show the way, Nock quickly threw off the people behind him.
"It's the river over there, but it's early spring, so we'd better walk along the river so that it doesn't get too weak. When we reach the break of the mountain range, the section of the river that needs to be passed is about 300 meters on the river, so we must be careful. There are demonic beasts sleeping at the bottom of the river due to hibernation, and if we fall into the river and wake them up, we will basically die. ”
"So how did you get through before?"
"We all made a sleigh by the river and paddled quietly, but we certainly don't have the time to run over the adventure. After a while, let me down, and we ran sideways, holding hands, and the thickness of the river was different, so that if something happened to one of them, the rest of us would be able to pull him up. ”
When Nock heard it, he could only do so.
Soon, the three of them arrived at the break point where Blue said.
Sure enough, the snow on the shore seemed to have melted.
After all, the temperature in the south is higher than in the north, and it is not surprising that the ice and snow are melting.
Nock casually found some snow and piled an arrow to point to the river, indicating that they were heading south first.
As for whether the people behind can see it, they can only ask for more blessings.
The three of them held hands and stepped onto the frozen river.
"Gala~"
There was a strange noise on the surface of the river.
"No, Leo, you're too heavy, or you should throw your shield away."
Blue looked at the shield on Leo's back, and the crack under his feet, and suggested.
Nock shook his head and refused, "No, I have a way." How did I forget it! ”
Nock laughed mysteriously.
