Chapter 231: Imp Robbery
Early the next morning, according to the direction introduced by the beard, Qi Lang and Gulf came to the gate of the foreign currency exchange agency. Like the supply cooperative, it is still a high-walled compound that does not fit in with the surrounding adobe houses, lonely and deserted. There were three or two tables and chairs in the hall, and five public servants in gray uniforms were holding tea, or leisurely flipping through newspapers, or lying on the table to rest listlessly, and even a couple of men and women who were 800 meters away were still there with their eyebrows and flirtatious.
Qi Lang learned a lesson this time, and refused to come forward to suffer the wretchedness, and only arranged the task of exchanging coins on Gulf's head. And Gurf also memorized the exchange amount in advance, swaggered up, and threw a bag of silver coins on the table: "Exchange banknotes, eighty-three sils, for six thousand two million two hundred and fifty thousand yuan." ”
Probably because Gurph's Middle-earth language was too authentic, the brother on the other side thought that the local residents were coming to stir up, so he didn't raise his head, but turned a page of the newspaper in his hand, and replied skillfully: "The complaint for the origin of the silver coin, the approval of the management committee, the approval of the Market Stability Society, the receipt of the paper application tax and the garbage removal tax...... Come back when these documents are ready! Office will be open from 10 p.m. to 10:13 p.m., and there will be no waiting for the expiration date!"
Hearing this long series of names of various documents, Gulf was dizzy for a while, and was trying to memorize it with his fingers, when the old man raised his eyes, and suddenly saw the face of the foreigner in front of him, and stood up straight: "Hello, honorable sir!"
Gulf was taken aback, and the phrase "Long live the great Jiang Ping brothers" was almost blurted out, but he was first conquered by the other party's amiable smile, and asked back tremblingly: "Please repeat it again, what documents do you want?"
The person on the other side had already revised his rules and regulations: "Look at what you said, those cumbersome procedures can be avoided. For a valued guest like you, you only need to sign this settlement slip and we can take care of the rest. However, this fee may be charged...... But the rules are so, and we do the same. ”
Gulf couldn't help snickering and nodded solemnly: "You can collect the handling fee if you should collect it, I just hope that your hands and feet can be faster, as you said, your office time is only thirteen minutes a day, but don't delay your rest." ”
"We've worked tirelessly to serve you. With a smile on his face, the old man beckoned to his partner and began to get busy. It didn't take long for Gulf to have a five-bag bill full of five hemp bills at his feet.
"You look at it, after deducting the handling fee, it is a total of 48.55 million yuan, one is not much, one is not much, the price is fair, and Tong Su is not deceived. ”
"Is this so expensive?" Gulf stuck out his tongue, but he was not in the mood to think about it carefully, grabbed two bags in one hand, and another bag under his arm, turned and left.
The benevolent brother led a few partners to nod their heads and bow their heads, and asked cautiously tentatively: "This distinguished guest, are you from the south?"
The so-called "south" seems to refer to the Otto Empire. Gulf nodded vaguely, "That's right, it's the south...... But I can't tell you too much, because our king has given us an important mission, which is confidential!"
The one hurriedly covered his ears with one hand, blindfolded his eyes with the other, and bowed down to reply: "Then we didn't hear anything, we didn't see anything." You always walk well, watch the steps. ”
Out of the gate, Qi Lang hurriedly put five bags of banknotes on the horseback, and the two of them took the horses and rushed straight to the supply society to buy grain. Halfway down, Gulf glanced at Qi Lang, lowered his voice and said, "The old gentleman yesterday should have said right, they should still have a connection with the Otto Empire, I only falsely reported that they came from the south, and their faces changed with fright. I guess the great Jiang Ping brother should be the puppet of the Otto Empire. It seems that our Legion of Hope didn't make this trip in vain, and maybe we'll have to fight a few fights with those guys. ”
Qi Lang nodded thoughtfully, feeling more and more that this matter was a little tricky - as that old Mr. Sang said, the Jiang Ping brother in power at the moment has used his propaganda offensive to control people's hearts, and the whole country regards him as a great person like a savior, if he jumps out to make things difficult for him at this time, it can almost be called an enemy of thousands of civilians in the whole country, and the difficulty of achieving it can be imagined. It seems that if he has the opportunity, he really has to go to Dongyang City and ask the very knowledgeable old gentleman for advice, after all, in his memory, Dongyang City is also his own hometown.
The purchase in the supply agency was quite smooth, Bazihu had already prepared seven or eight donkey carts, almost without any words, paid off the banknotes, and after the delivery, Qi Lang and Gulf took this team of donkeys, went out of the town, went around a few times, and saw that no one was following, so they crossed the Daxin River north and went straight to the Zhongyang Mountains.
Towards evening, the grain and grass truck finally arrived at its destination, but unexpected trouble came again.
After an hour of circumambulation in the feng shui array, Qi Lang and Gulf unexpectedly got lost again. Gulf had obviously walked through the inexplicable ghost wall array a few times, and the return was unimpeded, but this time, although he was unusually sure that he had not missed any of the signs, the left turn password was invalid. It seems that someone has done something in this feng shui array, and it is very likely that Joanna was angry and forced Qingguo to play tricks on the two brothers who bought it.
Gulf was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and the newly learned phrase "these grandsons" came in handy, and he kept babbling on and on. However, at this moment, Qi Lang quieted down, he waved his hand at Gulf, pulled out the Holy Blood Bow and arrow from his bag, and began to enter the state of preparation.
"Come out!" he cried out into the depths of the woods, "I have found you, seventeen of them, one of whom we have met. Little Brother Ruth, you know I don't want to hurt you. ”
Sure enough, after a loud noise, a group of teenage little guys poked their heads out from all directions. Some of them had daggers and clubs in their hands, some were carrying stones, and a little boy with a bald head and a single pigtail was carrying a wooden sword like a toy, and when he came up, he stammered and shouted: "I opened this mountain, I planted this tree, if you want to live from now on, stay ...... Stay...... Stay and buy the road money!"
Gulf glanced at Qi Lang curiously: "'Stay...... Stay...... What does it mean to leave for the road'?"
Qi Lang shrugged his shoulders: "I seem to have some impression of these words, it should be the usual slogan used by robbers in some dramas." To put it simply, we've been robbed. ”
"Just these stinky boys?" Gulf chuckled, "give me three minutes to show you what I'm capable of, and I'll make sure to tie them all up and kick them in the ass one by one." ”
Qi Lang smiled and pressed Gulf's shoulder: "Don't mess around, let's see what kind of drama they are singing first." ”
He took two steps forward: "The money we brought out has been spent, if you are really short of money, I'm afraid you will have to let us go first, and then we will think of a way for you when we go back." ”
The little guy jumped out and swung the wooden sword twice: "Less...... Few...... Less nonsense. We don't have money, we want donkeys......! Leave at least a cart of rice, I ...... The guy in my Lu Huan's hand is not a vegetarian...... Oops!"
At this time, Ruth walked out from behind him, slapped his bald head, and the little guy bared his teeth in pain, turned around and flew up but kicked it in the air: "Fuck you, stinky bastard......! You...... Why are you hitting me? ”
"Let your mouth be cheap, it's light to hit you!" The young man standing side by side with Ruth scolded impatiently, "Next time, grab my lines, and I'll sew your stinky mouth close!"
The boy was seventeen or eighteen years old, with a straight nose and a square mouth, his hair standing on lock by lock like a mess of grass, and a pair of tiger eyes that were blazing. He was wearing a chain of armor, but the front and back were clearly attached to the back, and a large piece of the heart guard was rotten, and the rusty copper plate almost hung down to his stomach. He held a short sword in his hand, the blade of which had been cracked, and the hilt of the sword was barely wrapped in rags.
Apparently he was the leader of the bandits. While Qi Lang respected his bravery and fearlessness, he also wanted to suggest to him that he should train his brother well, because the dozen or so little guys not only have amazing tactical literacy, but also have a lackluster combat level.
Secretly amused, Qi Lang hugged his fist towards the young man and greeted politely: "This little brother, everyone is a sibling, let's make it convenient." ”
The young man frowned, as if he was carefully recognizing Qi Lang's appearance, but the corner of his eyes swept to Gulf, who was full of disdain, and clearly found the other party's contempt, and immediately raised his tiger eyes again: "Don't be close to me, who is your brother! This is a forbidden place, no one can enter it alive, my brother mentioned it to me that day, saying that a group of foreign races broke into this place, I think it was you, a traitor, who attracted them, right?"
"I brought them here, that's right. Qi Lang smiled and said, "But they are all brothers who were born and died with me, although their skin color is not the same as ours, they are all good people, and they came here to help our Zonghao Kingdom restore its former glory." ”
Hearing that Qi Lang was talking about the Zong Hao Kingdom instead of the Republic, the young man's face seemed to soften, but his brows furrowed even tighter. He took two more steps forward and asked, "What did you say your name was?"
"My name is Qi Lang, what about you?" Qi Lang greeted him, smiled and stretched out his right hand to him.
