Chapter 1559 - Escort Errand
At dinnertime, the smoke of the cooking was everywhere, and Chen Baihu reprimanded his wife at home: "I went to five houses, but I didn't come to our house to ask for debts, what do you say?"
The leopard lady pouted and had no words.
"I can afford two hundred taels of silver, but I can't afford to lose that person. β
Chen Baihu said again: "Such a No. 1 person, you still let me take revenge on him, isn't it ugly?"
"Okay, I see, are you right this time?"
The leopard lady is rarely soft, and during the day, Luo Dong led the troops to ask for debts, but she was frightened, lest the next family would come to her door.
Fortunately, when Chen Baihu went out to check the situation, he also had a few cordial conversations with Luo Chong, and he didn't mention the IOU written by the leopard at all, and there was no doubt that this stubble passed without incident.
"This guy is so bold, he dares to do anything!"
The leopard's evaluation of Luo Chong has changed greatly, from disbelief to disbelief, from disbelief to faint admiration, but he hasn't admitted it yet.
Before eating, the leopard mother pondered for a while, and said to her husband and son: "I think this person is too arrogant, sooner or later he will cause a big disaster, you better stay away from him, don't get too close." β
"What are you going to do about this? β
Chen Baihu did not refute, but looked solemn: "It's like a gamble, the bet is right, follow him to the wind, if the bet is wrong, then it will be ......."
"Let's not bet!"
The leopard lady said vigorously: "You can make more money if the money is gone, and if your life is gone, you can end it as soon as you die, we can't afford to gamble!"
"Let's see. β
Chen Baihu shook his head and waved his hand, but the leopard was silent on the other side of the table, thoughtful......
Luo's family, after dinner.
"Sister-in-law, put these bills away. β
Luo Chong put a thick stack of silver tickets on the dining table that had just been cleaned, Luo's mother's eyes were dizzy, and the candle flame was not very bright, and when she looked closely, she only felt that there were a lot, but she didn't know how much, so she asked: "How much silver is this?"
Luo Chong replied: "One thousand taels." β
During the day, he asked for debts, went to five houses, and asked for 1,300 taels back, deducting the 300 taels issued to his soldiers, and there was exactly 1,000 taels left.
"The court's reward has come down?"
Luo's mother was very excited, of course she remembered what Luo Chong said when she first returned home: The thousand taels of silver rewarded by the imperial court will be delivered together with the official documents.
"It's not. β
Luo Chong shook his head: "The silver hasn't come yet, the court is doing things, and it's very procrastinating, and this is what I got from the debt during the day." β
Guangling Town is divided into slum areas and rich areas, of course, the daytime ho
"Who will owe you a thousand taels of silver?"
Luo's mother was really shocked, a thousand taels of silver, ordinary military families can't earn so much for generations.
"Oops, sore throat. β
Luo Chong opened his mouth wide and gestured with his hand: "Sister-in-law, you can explain it to your mother." β
My sister-in-law went to Renshizi that day, met a few young masters, and cleaned them up...... After talking about it in detail, Luo Xiuer also heard about it for the first time.
"A total of 1,300 taels, you really want to come back. β
Luo's mother didn't know what to say, she held it for a long time, and she didn't know whether she was praising him or criticizing him, anyway, she slapped her son twice on the back: "You have long skills, you are really good at it, you have learned to force debts everywhere." β
"The money of those guys is exploited from the poor, don't let it be in vain. β
Luo Chong laughed.
"Backwards......"
Luo Mu pondered and said: "Let's go out and really have a few big-headed soldiers to protect us, don't be knocked on the stick in the back." Not to mention that a few of them may retaliate, there are a thousand taels of silver in the family, and the whole town has spread the word, right? β
"Well-thought-out, mother-wise. β
Luo Chong hurriedly complimented.
"Don't use officialdom against me. β
Mother Luo couldn't cry or laugh, shook her head and sighed: "Anyway, I also figured it out, with your temperament, in the future, you will offend more people, a few of us, but we all have to live carefully." β
However, before waiting for her sister-in-law's persuasion, Luo's mother turned her tone, and her eyes and tone were full of ruthlessness: "Move, remember, if you want to be ruthless, you will be ruthless to death, so that others are afraid of you and dare not think of revenge against you." Don't be that kind of half-, saying that you are ruthless or not, and give others a loophole to exploit. β
"Huh?"
This remark not only stunned his sister-in-law and Luo Xiu'er, but Luo Chong didn't expect it in advance, is this still a charitable old lady?
"What's so strange?"
Luo's mother snorted: "In my life, I lost my father early, I lost my eldest brother, and then I lost my husband and eldest son, I lost no less than anyone, and the hatred in my heart was no less than anyone. But I don't know who the enemy is, I don't know who I should hate......"
As he spoke, he couldn't help choking, and tears came out again.
If there is no return of 'Luo Dong', this mother will be so miserable.
"Mother, I remember everything you said. β
Luo Chong held her hand and said softly: "I know who the enemy is, sooner or later I will kill them all and avenge my relatives." β
"Uh-huh. β
Luo Mu nodded and waved her hand again: "Don't talk about this, anyway, you are this kind of character, no matter how much you say, you can't change it." You just make it hard, it's a big deal, the old lady died with you, after these good days, I am also satisfied, there is nothing to be afraid of, I will never tie you and hinder you. β
"It's not so strict. β
Luo Chong turned around and pointed to the idol on the case: "Where did you put your firm faith again?"
mentioned faith, Luo's mother's mind slowly calmed down, but this time the excitement has a benefit, she has enough mental preparation from now on, even if her son breaks out of the uncontrollable catastrophe, the mother will accept her fate.
The son has the ability, but he still has this kind of life, so he doesn't complain about anything else.
After Luo's mother fell asleep, Luo Chong stood in the yard and smoked, and the family was used to the strange little paper scroll between his fingers.
The sister-in-law came out of Luo's mother's house, stood behind and hesitated for a moment, and then said softly: "Little brother, sister-in-law also supports you, no matter what, I feel very satisfied." β
Luo Chong turned his head and smiled: "Don't be so easily satisfied, you haven't tried the big bed made of gold." β
"Net nonsense. β
The sister-in-law chirped: "It's so hard, and I'm panicking." β
Of course, I understand, he is ridiculing that he is a money addict.
The sister-in-law went back to the house, Luo Xiu'er passed by with slight footsteps behind her, and Luo Chong asked her, "It's your turn, don't you say something?"
"I've got you some hot water, take a shower and go to sleep. β
That's what she's talking about.
"You're still the most promising. β
Luo Chong was convinced. In the side house on the side of the courtyard, Xiaoyu Xiaoyan covered her mouth and smiled, but she couldn't hide Luo Chong's ears......
Early the next morning, fifty soldiers were ready to go, all dressed in light armor, twenty of them with bows and arrows, and the other thirty with spears.
Escorting the commander is a serious errand, and of course he can temporarily receive regular armament from the arsenal of the guard.
Mrs. Liu and Miss Liu rode in a carriage, and Luo Chong and Lord Liu each rode horses, after all, Lord Liu was also a military attachΓ©, with a sword hanging from his waist, and he could also go into battle at a critical moment.
Their family of three went on vacation and traveled, only bringing four guards and a housekeeper, such a little protective force, it was okay in a stable period, and if they encountered abnormal banditry and dared to go on the road, it would be a risk of life.
Generally speaking, bandits are also reluctant to rob officials, especially military attaches of local health posts, after all, they will face crazy retaliation. But if it happens to happen, then you have to grab something, so as not to hurt people, and it will also disturb the family.
In addition, it coincided with the troubled times, the whole country was in turmoil, and bandits everywhere became more and more emboldened, and even gathered people to rebel one after another.
Over time, the mind of the bandit leader also came alive: the times create heroes, and they have to do it bigger, but it really doesn't work, we will also rebel, anyway, it's all a matter of losing your head!
At the north gate of the town, of course, there was the mayor of the town in the team who came to see him off, and in the face of Luo Chong, his expression was very embarrassed, and he learned that Lord Liu actually asked Luo Dong to escort him, so he temporarily extinguished the thought of complaining behind his back.
Luo moves Wuyong, everyone admits this, if Lord Liu wants to return safely, he also has to count on him.
Don't look at the fact that he only has fifty soldiers under his hands, anyone who knows a little can understand that all the old, weak, sick and disabled people in the guard are all added to the guard, and it is not enough for them to slaughter.
Don't forget, the battle of Hongyu has almost transferred young people from all over the country, Guangling Town sent out more than 100, and only these 50 or so came back alive.
Because of this, after Zhao Qianhu fell into a coma, he, a new hundred households, was unexpectedly uncontrollable.
Under the watchful eyes of the mayor and others, the escort team slowly went on the road.
Not long after leaving, Lord Liu was overjoyed and said: "Luo Baihu, you soldiers, your foot strength is good, and the speed of the journey is far beyond my prediction, so you can arrive in Guangling one day earlier." β
He is also a senior officer, and of course it can be seen that the marching state of these soldiers is not gritting their teeth, and it seems that they have long been accustomed to it.
"My soldiers, they are full, and they train every day, although they cost a lot, but they must be the best. β
Luo Chong is really modest when he says this, although he didn't use special means to transform their physique, but he taught them the so-called internal force cultivation in this world, although the time is not long, but there is still obvious growth.
The explanation to them is: The master taught me this, and I taught you, after a long time, everyone can become a fierce general like me, it depends on how far you can go.
In this regard, the soldiers are undoubtedly grateful: hundreds of households are really good to us, this kind of unique secret book can be taught, replaced by others, who can do it?
Therefore, you must train with your life and serve the life of hundreds of households!
"The road ahead is smooth, and the rapid travel of ten miles is regarded as today's training. β
Luo Chong gave an order, and the sergeants all ran up, and the marching speed increased several times, but they were still in a neat queue, not scattered.
