"The owner, I've searched it all!"

I searched back and forth for a few dilapidated houses, but I didn't find much. Except for the four south-maned horses, and the previous horse goods, the rest were only worth a hundred taels of silver.

Chen Jing turned his head and glanced at Huang Tong's villagers. Needless to say, Xing Xiaojiu and Tang Ao were willing to follow him all the way.

In addition to Huang Tong, the other four young villagers all had excitement and even greed on their faces. Murder and arson of the gold belt, in such years, under the decay of the dynasty, more and more people take risks and fall into the grass.

This way to Wuzhou, what he did was a life-threatening business, and there must be no ill-intentioned people in his back.

"Brothers, please take the silver." Chen Jing spoke calmly.

Several young villagers looked at the more than 100 taels of cash, and their faces were surprised. But fortunately, they all turned their heads and looked at Huang Tong.

Huang Tong exhaled and came out to clench his fists.

"The owner, although we are begging for money, we also know the truth of the word."

"What is righteousness?"

"As the owner's martial arts, if the owner is divided, we will naturally rejoice. If the owner does not divide, we can only give up. ”

Chen Jing smiled.

"Do you have any relatives at home?"

"It's all there. Otherwise, they won't cover their faces, for fear of causing trouble to their families. ”

"How's that? After this trip to the horse gang, take your family and follow me into Huaizhou. I don't dare to say anything else, but with my Chen Jing's meat, there will definitely be your soup. ”

The fight just now is enough to illustrate the blood and spirit of these five people's martial arts. In addition, Zhuangzi was short of manpower, and although he had twenty or thirty old soldiers, he eventually needed other manpower to fill the number of two hundred private soldiers.

"The owner...... Looking for a hired worker? ”

"It's looking for a brother, and he's walking with me all the way." Chen Jing smiled, pointed to Xing Xiaojiu next to him, and asked Tang Ao, "Just like them, they are also Zhuang Ding in my horse farm." In addition, the more than 100 taels of silver, when the horse returns to Huaizhou, those you follow along the way will be divided equally, and I will not take a penny. Of course, if you don't want to join my village, you will get a share, and there is no ambiguity. ”

Huang Tong was silent for a while, and finally had some insight.

"The owner, what you do is to make a living from the horse racing gang?"

"Businessman, the business will be very big in the future."

Huang Tong turned around and looked at the other four young villagers. Like them, even if they come back safely this time and take a lot of silver, what about after spending all the money.

Huang Tong seemed to have made a big decision, seriously clasped his fists, and spoke at Chen Jingning.

"If that's the case, I'm willing to follow the owner to beg for food!"

"I want to follow the owner!" Seeing Huang Tong speak, the remaining young villagers also clasped their fists together.

"Good!"

In the pouring rain, Chen Jing smiled with satisfaction.

……

Suppressed the gangsters of the ugly four mothers, for Chen Jing, the biggest gain was the addition of three south-maned horses. Previously, I was worried about the horseback riding problem of Huang Tong and others, but now it has been completely resolved.

I deliberately gave some time for Huang Tong and a few people to return to the village, so as to inform the family to move to Mazhuang.

As for the injured Li Heng, Chen Jing already had a plan. Leaving two young villagers, they followed the migrating Zhuangren and sent Li Heng back to Zhuangzi by the way.

"Sun Xiong, how far is it?"

"More than two hundred miles. But it rained heavily, and I was afraid that the forest road would be muddy. ”

Chen Jing didn't know, but at the moment, he couldn't continue to consume. The news of the death of the ugly Siniang will eventually reach the ears of the Wuzhou Shangrud. If you continue to stay and get suspicious, you will probably enter Wuzhou and cause a commotion.

"Let's hit the road first."

After everything was done and a wave of episodes were experienced, the people of Chenjia Horse Village, plus three Huang Tong, a total of eleven people and seventeen south-maned horses, continued to rush in the direction of Wuzhou.

……

After three or four days of starry nights, except for the necessary rest, it was almost non-stop, Chen Jing and the people of Chenjia Mazhuang finally rushed to the border of Wuzhou.

Sun Xiong, as a guide, finally breathed a sigh of relief. Along the way, I met at least four or five bandits, and of course, with Li Heng's lesson, the group was very careful. Except for one of them, who insisted on stealing horses in the middle of the night and were killed by two people, the rest of the bandits retreated, not daring to provoke.

But Chen Jing understands that the real danger is not in the south. Instead, on the border of Wuzhou, dozens of miles to the Yue tribe. According to Sun Xiong, there are a lot of dense forests over there, and those who do murder and goods are all extremely vicious prisoners, deserters, and a group of people who have no way to live and no way to retreat.

Most of the merchants, when they bring goods here, will choose to sell them in the same place, and after earning a cheap piece of silver, they will immediately drive their horses home.

But Chen Jing didn't want to do that. His life is not satisfied with just being a person who is rich and secure. In the future, if you want to raise private soldiers, soldiers, grain, grass, silver, and even armor, you need to spend silver.

"Sun Xiong, do you know any pimps? I can buy a road. ”

Buying a road means giving a piece of silver, and when you go to the Yue tribe, those bandits will not be embarrassed.

"Boss, I need to ask."

"Tang Ao, you go with me, remember to be careful, you will come to the Shang Mansion to find me later."

"Don't worry." Tang Ao and Sun Xiong hugged their fists together.

Chen Jing raised his head and looked at the small town in front of him. Compared with the wealthy Dengfeng City, this small city on the border of the Central Plains is somewhat dilapidated.

In Xing Xiaojiu's words, even those little flower girls who stood on the platform and solicited business were not very good-looking, and they were less delicate and angry.

The four old pawns of Zhuangzi walked at the end with their knives, carefully guarded. Huang Tong and two other village youths led the mule and supported the horses.

A fierce and vicious official came and was about to take the opportunity to make trouble, probably to extort money. But Chen Jing took out the notarization and then took out the knighthood, and the two petty officials suddenly became flattering, pointed in the direction of the Shang Mansion, and hurriedly ran away.

Da Ran's law decrees that when merchants enter the border of Wuzhou, they need to go to the merchant to leave a document.

Even if the dynasty decays, even if the whole edifice is crumbling, there are some things that you can't fail to abide by. Unless you say that you are willing to be like those bandits, you will fall into the grass and ignore everything.

But throughout the ages, this kind of unsuccessful way has always ended in misery.

"Owner, isn't it over there?"

Following the direction of Xing Xiaojiu's fingers, Chen Jing raised his head, and from a distance, he saw a huge official mansion, standing at the end of the long street.

More than a dozen soldiers in armor and swords were staring ahead with their heads held high, their eyes heavy.

Next to the Shang Mansion, there is also an ancestral temple. When I got closer, I found that it was a living shrine, and the person enshrined in it was Mr. Zhao Shengniu.

The incense was in full bloom, and the people who came and went included women, children, and old farmers carrying vegetables...... Whenever they pass by, these people will arrange their robes, kneel down earnestly, and respectfully worship a pillar of incense.

In this drowsy world, there was once a sick and infirm pioneer who held a lamp and wanted to lead them to the light.

The bright hall is obviously close at hand.
