Chapter 14: Acting

The caravan was robbed by Chu Xiu and asked Han Bao to send people, but Chu Xiu just meant to kill Zhang Quan's stewards, and he was still ready to keep the others, otherwise there was no one in the caravan, what was the point of his caravan?

And in fact, they didn't have many deaths, but the rest of the people seemed to have been frightened, and they didn't dare to continue to go, which made Chu Xiu sneer in his heart, his cheap father really didn't care about the affairs of the Chu family, these people have been used to this kind of appearance, and he doesn't care about it.

Looking at the people present, Chu Xiu said coldly: "Cultivate for a period of time? Think of a countermeasure? It's just a joke!"

It's not you who died, you didn't even suffer a little injury, what are you cultivating?

As for countermeasures, the bandits in the north and south of the Tomb Mountains have been causing trouble for decades, and even the Wei County official mansion and the Beiyan Imperial Court can't manage it.

The members of those caravans all had angry faces, but no matter what Chu Xiu said, he was also the second son of the Chu family, they were not even in charge, and they didn't dare to argue with Chu Xiu, they just were silent there with an angry face.

Chu Xiu sneered: "You think it's over if you don't speak?" With so much business in the Chu family, the caravan's treatment is the highest.

The other miscellaneous subordinates only have one tael and two taels of monthly money, and your caravan is at least ten taels, and the steward can even reach one hundred taels!

The Chu family gave you so much monthly money, not to let you be the uncle, you don't want to go for fear of death, some people want to go!

Chu Xiu shouted, and Gao Bei immediately walked out and said, "The villain is here." ”

Chu Xiu said lightly: "Go, tell those subordinates in the Chu family's miscellaneous room that some of them dare to work hard, and my caravan will dare to ask for it, with a minimum monthly salary of ten taels, as long as they return smoothly every time, half of the caravan's income will be used as their reward." ”

Chu Xiu turned his gaze to the rest of the people in the caravan, and said lightly: "As for you, it doesn't matter if you don't want to work hard in the caravan, go to Steward Liu and ask him to reassign a place for you, of course, Steward Liu is still lying on the bed now, and it is estimated that he will not have time to care about you." ”

The faces of those people in the caravan changed suddenly, they didn't expect Chu Xiu to do so desperately, and he would kick them all out of the caravan at once.

To tell the truth, among so many businesses in the Chu family, the treatment of the caravan is indeed the highest, and they have not encountered any great risks after walking for several years in a row, only this time they were scared.

Just because he gave up such a good position this time, the person who was still firm immediately hesitated.

And compared with when Zhang Quan was in charge of the caravan before, the second son was very generous, and he was willing to take out half of the caravan's income as a reward.

Don't look at this half of the money seems to be very small, and the share in the hands of these hundreds of people is even less, but the income of each caravan is thousands of taels, and on average, they can also get a few taels of silver, which is a lot for them.

At this moment, Fang Cai, the first person to jump out and question Chu Xiu, was the first to defect, and hurriedly begged: "Second son, Fang Cai is a villain lard blinded heart, the Chu family treats me well, and asks the second son to give me a chance." ”

Chu Xiu didn't know anything about the caravan, and now that those stewards were dead, it was naturally impossible for him to really drive them all out of the caravan.

So Chu Xiu just said lightly: "There is only one chance, if you don't grasp it again, then don't blame me for not being emotional." Those who are willing to stay in the caravan now will come with me. ”

Of the more than seventy members of the caravan present, only more than ten were really frightened, and they would rather leave without the treatment of the caravan, as for the others, they all obediently followed Chu Xiu to prepare and start again.

The charter of the caravan is actually not too difficult, it is nothing more than to exchange what you have, sell the specialties of Wei County to Yan Kingdom, make a lot of money, and then bring some special products back to Wei County from Yan Kingdom.

It's just that if you walk from the main road, although it is safe, it will take too long, and you can't get around the mountain for a month.

And if you go directly across the mountain, you can walk twice a month.

This time Chu Xiu led the team, he had already greeted Han Bao and asked Han Bao's subordinates to cooperate with him to perform a scene, which was for the people of the Chu family and other bandits in the mountain.

After entering the Mourning Mountain, Chu Xiu took another trade route that Zhang Quan and the others had walked, and the subordinates of those caravans along the way seemed to be frightened birds, for fear that there would be more bandits.

But the reality is that he is afraid of something, and at this moment, a loud laugh suddenly came: "Little ones, come out, business is coming! People are killed, things are left!"

As soon as the words fell, hundreds of bandits rushed out of the dense forest and surrounded the caravan.

By this time, the people in the caravan were already regretting their deaths.

Knowing this, they wouldn't have continued to come to seek death with Chu Xiu, but now that the money has not been obtained, their lives are almost gone!

But at this moment, Chu Xiu suddenly said to Gao Bei: "Take the fire oil and prepare to light the fire!"

Gao Bei nodded, directly opened the carriage containing the goods, and opened a clay pot on the top of the carriage, which emitted a pungent smell, it was a jar of fire oil, and Gao Bei also took out a flint from his arms at this time, and the fire oil could be ignited at any time.

Chu Xiu pointed to the clay pot and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, there is such a fire oil tank on every carriage, you seek wealth and kill your life, but the people of my Chu family will not be slaughtered!"

It's a big deal that I'll burn the goods with a fire, and then I'll fight you to the death, and you won't want to get anything!"

Those people in the caravan looked at Chu Xiu, and their eyes showed a look of surprise, obviously they didn't expect this second son to have such a hand.

It's just that what if you run into a hot-tempered bandit and would rather kill them than this thing?

Among the bandits, a strong man carrying a mountain knife walked out, this person Chu Xiu knew, he was one of Han Bao's henchmen, and he had the strength of the body quenching realm, the daimyo didn't know, but the other bandits called him Feng Yidao, which means that his knife skills are very fast, and he often kills people with only one knife.

Feng Yidao pretended not to know Chu Xiu, and he sneered: "It's more tender to play this game with uncle, do you believe it or not, uncle, I'd rather not want these things, and I want to kill you?"

Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "What's the trouble with this, this good man, it's better to do this, you have a competition with me, I lose, let you deal with it." If I win, you'll let us go, how about that?"

Feng Yidao laughed and said: "A powerless boy also wants to do it with me? Since you want to find death, then I will fulfill you!"

The members of the other caravans were all frowning, no wonder they were worried, it was true that this second prince had never been famous for his strength in the Chu family.

In the entire Chu family, only the eldest prince is recognized as having a very good martial arts talent, and now he has reached the blood condensation realm.

Chu Xiu dismounted, took out the short knife in his hand, arched his hand at Feng Yidao, and attacked Feng Yidao directly.

Chu Xiu is good at the art of fast knives, and Feng Yidao is not an ordinary bandit, he was born in the thirty-six giants of the Northland, and his martial arts inheritance is not inferior to that of the disciples of the sect family, but he is also good at fast knives.

But now that the two of them are acting, it is naturally impossible to use the kind of quick knife technique that kills the enemy with one move, so just like ordinary martial artists, you fight back and forth.

There are almost no real martial artists among the subordinates of the Chu family, and most of them have only learned some superficial fist and foot kung fu, so in their opinion, the fight between the two sides is very fierce.

After fighting dozens of moves, Feng Yidao deliberately released water, and Chu Xiu directly slashed the mountain opening knife in his hand with a single knife, and arched his hand and said, "Accept it." ”

Feng Yidao's acting skills are not bad, he showed a depressed look on his face and said: "Okay, okay, let's go, I didn't expect that your son-in-law still has some strength, it's the uncle and I underestimate the enemy." ”

As soon as they heard this, the people on the other side of the caravan immediately breathed a sigh of relief and cheered collectively.

But at this time, Chu Xiu said: "This good man is slow. ”

Feng Yidao frowned and said, "What else is there to do with you kid?"

The people on the other side of the caravan were also very puzzled, they were now eager to get as far away from these bandits as possible, what did the second son do to the other party?

Chu Xiu arched his hand and said, "I want to talk to you about a business." ”

Feng Yidao pointed at himself and said, "I heard you right? You are talking to me about business with a bandit?"

Chu Xiu nodded and said, "That's right, it's about business."

In the next caravan, if this caravan transports this batch of goods to Yan Kingdom, it can be sold for thousands of taels when it changes hands, but in fact, if this batch of goods falls into your hands, you can only turn them into a few hundred taels with your ability.

This is a tenfold difference, and now I am willing to take out a thousand taels of silver, and ask you heroes to escort my caravan out of the Dead Mountain, so that you heroes have not taken this trip in vain, and even more than the silver earned by ordinary murder and robbery. ”

Feng Yidao's eyes suddenly lit up: "Your kid has a good idea, interesting, uncle, I agreed!"

The people of the caravan present all glanced at each other, they had been walking this mountain for more than ten years, and it was the first time they had seen this kind of practice, but if they thought about it carefully, they really didn't lose too much.

Although 1,000 taels of silver was a lot, in the past, they needed to hide in Tibet to avoid bandits, but now they are directly escorted by these bandits from the Yanbi Mountain, and the time taken is much shorter.

It wasn't until this moment that everyone seemed to realize that the second son seemed to have really changed, and the second son in their impression was simply like two people.

Chu Xiu's play was very successful, his side completely established his prestige in the caravan, and Han Bao's side could also spread the word about this matter, so that the other bandits knew the feasibility of their formulation of such rules.
