"Fan Debiao, you know each other, right? In the past, he sold illicit salt to the Hu people, and after being inspected by Xiliang Mansion, a family of seventy-three was killed! ”

"I have an eighty-year-old high hall and a three-year-old child, and if I die, I will die, but I must not let them sit together, and I will not do this smuggling business!"

"The problem is that salt and iron are extremely regulated, we have no purchase channels, and we have no smuggling channels, even if we want to do this business, it is impossible!"

The businessmen who were locked up in the prison cell, nine adults were unwilling to smuggle, and even Tang Hulu, who had always been self-interested, would rather sacrifice himself to protect his family this time.

Song Che must not be afraid, the emperor is his brother, what is he afraid of?

The only thing that made him resist was that the smuggled pig iron was obviously used to make armor, and these horse bandits should be trying to make a big deal.

"Hey, who's surnamed Song?" The caretaker walked in and asked.

Song Che frowned, "It's me, what's the matter with me?" ”

"Don't ask nonsense, just follow me."

The guards pulled Song Che out of the cell and carried him out with a knife.

"Boss Song! If I'm lucky enough to go out, I'll take care of your wife and children!" Tang Hulu held the cell door and burst into tears.

"Don't worry, Lao Tzu won't die!"

Just because Song Che is kind to the three masters, he won't be stabbed, right?

The guards took Song Che to a guest house.

On the front wall of the guest hall, there is a pair of shining golden armor and a high-speed sword, and the person who enters the door suddenly feels serious.

In the center of the living room was a table with a large pot of bone-in mutton, steaming.

Since last night, Song Che has not eaten a grain of rice, and his stomach has long been so hungry that his chest is close to his back, he doesn't care so much, he grabs the mutton and eats it.

But as soon as you enter it, it is extremely sour and unpalatable.

"Phew!"

He hurriedly spit out the meat in his mouth, thinking to himself that this could not have been poisoned, right?

"Boss Song, please forgive me, all the coarse salt used here is good, and the food cooked is naturally not good."

Three people came out of the ear room, two of whom had already appeared in the evening, the second master Kuijin, and the third master who was fortunate to be saved by Song Che, I don't know what their name was.

There is another person, twenty-five or sixteen years old, seven feet tall, dignified appearance, compared with the roughness of the Northwesterners, she is much more feminine and fair-skinned, with starry eyebrows, girls and men.

If it weren't for Song Che who was used to seeing the jade-faced Xiao Langjun, he might not be able to recognize her as a woman.

The leader of the horse bandits is actually a woman?

"Zou Ping, he is the one you said, the silk merchant who has saved your life?" The woman looked at Song Che and asked Zou Ping, the third master.

Zou Ping nodded, "If it weren't for Boss Song's righteous rescue, my head would have been mentioned to the government to receive the reward." ”

"So, I'm a lifesaver for you? How about the grace of saving my life, when the spring reciprocates and releases me? Song Che asked.

Zou Ping frowned, struggled for a moment, and said solemnly: "I do owe you a life, if I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely pay you back, but not now." ”

Song Che snorted lightly and threw away the mutton in his hand, "People have to bow their heads under the eaves, your knives are on my neck, in order to survive, I will agree to any request, why bring me to the guest hall and invite me to eat...... Such unpalatable lamb? ”

The female leader grabbed the beef and mutton, took a bite, and said coldly: "This mutton is not unpalatable, it's just that your mouth is tricky." ”

Kui Jin said at this time: "When I was in the field, I knew that Boss Song was a big businessman from the first time I saw him, and it happened that so many wealthy businessmen from Liang were invited today, so I wanted Boss Song to lead them and find a way to transport a batch of pig iron to us." ”

Song Che said: "They all have wives and children, and they would rather die than agree." ”

Kui Jin said: "Does Boss Song know what a 'leader' is? What the leader does, the lamb will follow. I think you'll have a way of convincing them to cooperate with us. ”

Song Che was indifferent: "I don't think it's necessary." ”

Kui Jin's eyebrows sank, and his voice became colder: "Liang people have a saying, called 'knowing the current affairs is a handsome', Boss Song, don't toast or eat and drink." ”

"Boss Kui misunderstood."

Song Che said, "I mean, if you want pig iron, I can get it for you alone, and I don't need their help." ”

The three of Kuijin looked at each other.

The female leader said, "We need at least 5,000 pounds of pig iron. ”

Song Cheyun was light: "No problem." ”

Kuijin wondered: "You are so confident? ”

Song Che said: "Self-confidence is only one aspect, boldness, good luck, also accounted for a part, after all, this is smuggling contraband, it is unrealistic to say that there is no risk." ”

"There is a risk, and if you fail, you all have to die," Quakin said. ”

"If you don't do it, you will die, and if you do it, you will die, so why not give it a go?" Song Che glanced at the three horse bandit leaders, and said, "As I just said, people have to bow their heads under the eaves, right?" ”

Kuijin smiled, "Very good, I really didn't see the wrong person,"

He added: "Actually, you don't have to think about this transaction too complicated, as long as you can prepare the pig iron, I have my own channels to transport it out of the border of Daliang." ”

At this time, the female leader said, "What about time? We can't take it for too long. ”

Song Che said: "Half a year and March." ”

The female leader frowned and spat lightly: "I'll only give you a month." ”

One month?

Song Che tilted his head and looked at the female leader, "I take the liberty of asking, what's your name?" ”

The female leader tilted her head and hummed softly: "Guo Yun." ”

Song Che shook his head, "No, this is a man's name, you should tell me, what is your name?" ”

"How do you know I'm ......"

The female leader swept Song Che's eyes, that deep and deep gaze, as if all pretense was in vain, she coldly spit out three words:

"Guo Shuyun."

"So, the plan to attack the field at night was also ordered by you?"

"It's me, what?"

"I'm a little curious."

"What are you curious about?"

"I wonder, how did you get into this position of leader with such simplicity?"

"What did you say!" Guo Shuyun's eyes widened, faintly angry.

Song Che said: "Rongchang is an important border trade town, if you make such a fuss, Daliang, Huguo, Xiqiang, and even Tubo, all countries will strengthen the borders, and there are very few salt and iron smuggling channels, so if you make such a fuss, won't it make smuggling more difficult?" ”

Guo Shuyun'e frowned.

Song Che said again: "You give a month to transfer pig iron, it is impossible, from procurement to transshipment, to liaison, smuggling, it will take at least three months, and it depends on whether the borders of various countries are lax." ”

Guo Shuyun looked at Kuijin.

Obviously, this second-in-command named Kuijin is more decision-making, and he nodded:

"Okay, I'll give you three months."
