Chapter 24 Driving Dogs and Tigers
Feng Gongzi immediately twitched, obviously shocked by the two key words of "hundreds of horses" and "hundreds of taels per horse", with his IQ, he actually didn't have a profit at this time, and actually asked a very critical question, which shows that even this kind of fool is definitely not a fool who can be fooled at will.
"How is this possible? How can horses from the north be trafficked to our south?"
Horses are strategic materials, similar to modern uranium ore and the like, which are definitely embargoed substances, and the importance of cavalry is well known to the buyer, and the seller is also clear, so the geographical location of Nanzheng, the price of horses can be said to be ten times, or even twenty times the place of origin, and even this is priceless. In response to Feng Gongzi's suspicions, Lin Fengjin immediately threw out a killer idea:
"There are probably two or three more teas left, and the people who are standing in front of the horse gang are about to arrive, can't you clean up a few people? Am I talking nonsense, when the time comes, these people will touch the horse with their own eyes, and then ride two laps, won't it be clear?"
As soon as he heard Lin Fengjin say this, Feng Gongzi's breath immediately became thicker, as if he was a bull that had seen a red cloth, and he had no doubts in his heart, and immediately shouted:
"Watching chess, where did you rabbit cub go?
However, a relatively old housekeeper next to him stepped forward and said in a low voice:
"Young master, the master has a strict order, not to attack the past businessmen, this is the foundation of our family"
Feng Gongzi immediately scoffed, spit out as soon as he soaked his saliva, and said unscrupulously:
"What bullshit, didn't the old man of the caravan that sold silk and satin the year before last send someone to follow him for a hundred miles? How did last year's batch of jewels come from? All the guards of that caravan were sunk in the river!"
Lin Feng saw that the old butler with a bitter face seemed to want to say something, so he said:
"The goods of this horse gang also seem to come from the wrong way, and these horses of theirs seem to have been stolen from the Hexi Horse Prison in the Middle Tang Dynasty, who reported the violent death of the horse plague! This kind of thing is a hammer deal, and it will never come again after this time, unlike us who sell grain, and we have to go back and forth from Guizhen five or six times a year, to say the least. I think that what Master Feng has to take care of should be a long-term repeat customer like us, the goods of this gang of bandits are originally unknown, and it is the Feng family that should arrest the bandits and appease the place!"
After listening to Lin Fengjin's explanation, the old housekeeper came down the stairs first, secondly, he also felt that it was very reasonable, and thirdly, he felt that he had hated the young master by talking too much, so he should make up for it twice as much as he flattered him, so he immediately came up with the idea of pouring down the waterway:
"Young master, since these people can escort such valuable goods here, then they must be ruthless, so if you want to make this ticket, then you have to do it well, and you can't let the cooked duck fly, with these people in our hands, it's really a little insufficient. ”
Lin Fengjin glanced at this treacherous old man, and secretly said that your old man is really my best partner, and my brother is worried that it is inconvenient to say something, so you actually picked it up, and immediately added oil and vinegar and said:
"This ancient housekeeper said very well, it is really ginger or old spicy, we young people are impetuous, and there is always a place to do things, so we need this kind of old-timer with virtue and virtue to be by my side. ”
Young Master Feng was a straw bag, and he was dazzled by a lot of silver, and immediately said anxiously and worriedly:
"I can't let go of half a horse! What about a few hundred taels of silver?
Butler Gu was in the focus of everyone at this time, and a fluttering feeling immediately arose, although there was still half a mouthful of phlegm on his face, he touched his goatee and said with a wicked smile:
"Now the three masters should be resting, it is not appropriate to alarm them at this time, otherwise, it will be difficult for the young master to leave some private money, and it should be Feng San and Feng Wu who are on duty today, and only the two of them can mobilize the manpower in our castle, young master, you can wipe some blood on your face and forehead at will, just say that you were bullied by a group of outsiders, and ask Feng San and Feng Wu to transfer people to help, and when the people are transferred out, Feng San and Feng Wu are slaves after all, do you dare to argue with the young master? In this way, isn't it you who have the final say?"
Lin Fengjin said at this time:
"I heard that Feng San and Feng Wu are quite unruly in temperament, what if they refuse to hand over power after they arrive?"
Young Master Feng immediately jumped up and screamed:
"He dares to ?!! these two rammed goods are my dogs, let him go east, he dares to go west?"
Lin Fengjin said lightly:
"Of course he doesn't dare to clash with you head-on, young master, but it is a good thing that can harm you------- what if he goes to meet the master to complain immediately after handing over the power? According to the sternness of the master, even if he succeeds, he must have transferred all the horses to the account in the castle, Young Master Feng, your hard work is not in vain." What's more, I heard that Feng San has always been disrespectful to you, and once he was drunk in the tavern, and he said something rebellious about wild seeds!"
Although Lin Fengjin was sowing discord, the last sentence was definitely not fabricated, even Young Master Feng himself had heard it a few times, and he did not look like the three brothers of the Feng family at all, so this matter was his biggest pain.
At this time, the new hatred of cutting off people's financial routes and the old hatred of being insulted came to his heart, and the fierce light in Young Master Feng's eyes flashed, and he immediately gritted his teeth and said:
"Very good, very good! Then today is the death date of these two dogs! It's a big deal, I'm fighting for my father's punishment, and I want the two of them to die!"
The ancient housekeeper also put his heart sideways, as if he was going to immediately cast his name, and continued to damage the waterway:
"Actually, it's not good to push this matter directly on those horse thieves, let's just say that Feng San and Feng Wu are very brave, but they fell for the enemy's tricks and unfortunately died, young master, haven't you been thinking about Feng San's wife for a long time?
"Oh, yes, yes."
“”
The more the old and the young man talked, the more speculative he became, from how Feng San's wife and children got down to business, such as arranging people to plot against Feng San and Feng Si's precautions, and how to deal with those "horse thieves", what lime boiling water and sweat medicine stumbling horses, etc., etc., almost took care of everything, and in some details, it was to ask Lin Fengjin to go into battle in person, and it was impossible to do it so thoroughly.
How to deal with cavalry?
In the era of cold weapons, this is the ultimate problem that is difficult enough to eat snacks, fatty meat, ice cream, hot pot, chocolate and all other high-calorie and high-fat foods with girls----- but make the increased fat only grow on the breasts.
In fact, if someone could find a way to complete the cavalry in the age of cold weapons, there would be no Genghis Khan's great reputation for sweeping across the Eurasian continent with cavalry marksmanship.
It's just that the ancient butler who has a bad stomach full of bad water has a flash of inspiration and came up with a very creative idea to deal with these horse thieves, that is, ------ turn cavalry into infantry!!
At the end of the north street of Quzhen, there is a checkpoint connecting the official road to the north, and the surrounding area of Quzhen is also built according to the standard of the walled city, which can be said to be better than the quality of the city wall in many counties, and the so-called checkpoint is similar to the city gate.
Lin Fengjin stood in the hidden place of the sentry post with Young Master Feng and Steward Gu, and of course, there were several heavily armed guards beside him. If Lin Fengjin lied, I believe that Young Master Feng would once again show his "stunt" of turning his face like turning a book.
As time passed, Young Master Feng was obviously an impatient person, and almost every few seconds he would anxiously ask "Why don't you come", and when he got to the back, he almost didn't grit his teeth and came to Lin Fengjin to ask about the correctness of the news.
Fortunately, before Young Master Feng's patience was about to run out, one of the guards beside him suddenly moved, half-knelt on the ground and then knelt on the ground to listen, and then whispered happily:
"It's the sound of horses' hooves!
However, this guy's diligence was exchanged for Young Master Feng's kick directly in the face, and this guy's tension finally found an outlet to ease:
"** is really nonsense, young master, I have already seen the gas death wind lamp approaching in the distance!"
The sound of hooves approached, just as Li Hu said, the three riders stood forward, they were all wearing ordinary variegated clothes, but their faces were full of fierce colors, and they didn't even shy away from the weapons on their bodies. These details seemed normal in Young Master Feng's eyes, but if it weren't for the outlaws who didn't have two brushes, how could they dare to steal horses for thousands of miles to sell them?
And when the rider approached, when the sentry who was pretending to doze off opened the door, the guard next to him, who was the most calm, also twitched fiercely, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva with a grunt!
After hearing that the three men had thrown a reward to the sentry who opened the door, they asked if there were any suspicious people. The sentry was naturally saying in his heart that the most suspicious thing was the three of you horse thieves who killed a thousand knives, but he said with a smile that the local security was excellent, and it could be said that the road was not forgotten, and more than half of the chickens had not been lost for more than ten years.
The three of them didn't get the clues, and they didn't care, they were just pawns, and many things were not their turn to worry about. He asked the sentry where he could temporarily place the men and horses of the brigade, and it was estimated that two or three teas would be enough, and the first was that the people wanted to take a break, eat something, drink some wine, move their hands and feet, and by the way, they had to feed the horses that had galloped all night, and they had no intention of staying. (Because you have to get stuck here immediately)
