Chapter 172 Dig three feet into the ground
On the way back from the mud in the north, Li Wuchang pondered how to deal with the mud.
He had already seen it, the mud was indeed very large, and it was indeed very soft, the surrounding area was fine, and people could walk, and it was mud in the middle, and it was easy to sink in, and he tried it, and although it was not as scary as the swamp, it was not much better.
Just as he was thinking about how to deal with it, he ran into Fat Bear and a few brothers on the way.
"Stunned, people are coming from Chang'an City, and Brother Xun is greeting them. "Fat Bear Road.
"It's very fast, it seems that Tang Bao, the bandit leader, is still a little valuable!" Li Wuchang laughed and quickened his pace.
Because of the exploration these days, Li Wuchang is very familiar with the roads on the Zhuangzi, knows all kinds of paths, and returns to the Zhuangzhu's Mansion after a while.
"Oh, Ma Da Shao, Lin Er Shao, Liu Er Shao...... Even the Mu guards are here, alas, it's really an honor for me to be the owner of the village, come here, quickly prepare the wine and food!" Li Wuchang was shocked by the people who came.
These young people came here in person?
Does Tang Leopard really have such a great charm?
Not really, right?
Ma Kun, Lin Zheng and Liu Qizheng greeted Li Wuchang one after another, and their tones were natural, similar to friends.
Mu Tianfeng said respectfully: "Mu Tianfeng see Lord Li!"
Ma Kun They are the sons in law of a big family, they can be at will, but Mu Tianfeng can't be at will, Li Wuchang is His Majesty's own viscount, and ordinary people have to be extremely respectful when they see him.
Li Wuchang snorted and said with a smile: "Guard Mu doesn't have to be polite, you are a celebrity in front of His Royal Highness the Prince, please take care of him in the future!"
Lin Zheng saw that Li Wuchang's trouser legs were full of mud, and he was curious: "Impermanence, what are you doing here?"
Li Wuchang waved his hand and said, "Alas, don't mention it, this poor and remote place, I will fall into the mud when I walk casually...... Brother Xun Minglun, you will entertain all the distinguished guests on my behalf, and I will go and change my clothes. ”
After Li Wuchang took a shower and changed his clothes, the wine and food were ready.
This trip is Lu Desheng in charge, the brothers have a hand, and the fat bear has also made a hand, Lu Desheng and the fat bear often messed around in the back kitchen of the Dongli Restaurant when they were in Chang'an City, and they had a lot of fights.
Not to mention chickens and ducks, the specialties are all kinds of game, supplemented by seasonal vegetables and fresh wild vegetables, as well as river fresh and rice wine bought from Feng Yicheng.
Li Wuchang personally greeted Ma Kun and the other four.
Zhao Xun and Jiang Minglun beckoned Ma Kun and the men they brought.
"The countryside is vulgar, there are no good things to get your hands on, everyone will just take a moment, when Li Mou returns to Chang'an City, I must invite you to have a good drink." Li Wuchang said politely.
You had a great time.
Ma Kun praised: "Although the dishes look rough, they have a unique taste. ”
Lin Zheng and others also praised it.
Li Wuchang smiled: "It's good if you like it...... By the way, although Tang Bao has some value, but the three young men and the Mu guards are here in person, do you think a little too highly of Tang Leopard?"
Lin Zheng said solemnly: "The Fire Wolf Gang kidnapped my sister and killed my Lin family's entourage, I can't wait for a moment." ”
Ma Kun also nodded, his eyes showing a fierce light.
Liu Qizheng coughed lightly and said, "I'm going to go to Northland County on an errand next, and it is rumored that there are also rudders of the Fire Wolf Gang there, so I want to make more preparations, I want to make some contributions as soon as possible, and don't laugh at our city's philistine." ”
Mu Tianfeng continued: "The Fire Wolf Gang often causes chaos in Jingzhao, but because they can't find their chief rudder and don't know their specific combat strength, the extermination operation has not made much progress, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is quite concerned. ”
Li Wuchang nodded, and said seriously: "What everyone said makes sense, the rudder of the Fire Wolf Gang in Feng Yijun is only used to probe the news, and the big head is still in the Jingzhao chief rudder and the northern rudder, Tang Leopard is a high-level figure, he must know the details, but he has been arrested for several days, everyone must pry his mouth open as soon as possible, and then make arrangements as soon as possible." ”
After a pause, he continued: "In addition to Tang Bao, there are still seven or eight fifth-grade masters, and their status should not be low, they know some things, you can take them together, and there are also some miscellaneous forces' minds, if Liu Ershao doesn't dislike them, take them away, and there are many people in those miscellaneous forces, which are distributed in Feng Yi and all over the north." ”
Liu Qizheng was overjoyed and said, "Then thank you impermanence." ”
After eating, Li Wuchang took a few people to the miscellaneous room to meet the group of prisoners.
There are dozens of people in total, and they are all in good spirits.
Li Wuchang didn't starve them, he just didn't let them heal well in case they escaped.
"Tang Bao, someone has come to see you. Jiang Minglun shouted.
"Hmph, if you want to kill, you will kill, Hugh has to say more. Tang Leopard's face was full of rebelliousness.
The fat bear rushed up and kicked it, and said fiercely: "You still dare to be a good man in front of the uncle, you are the most active every time you eat, and you pick out the good ones, is there a tough guy like you? There is a kind of fucking hunger strike." ”
Everyone laughed.
It seems that this Tang Leopard is not a person who sees death as home.
Zhao Xun pointed to the captives and said: "The three big young men, Mu Guard, this is Tang Leopard, the few on the left are his subordinates, all of them are five-grade strength, the few on the right are the heads of miscellaneous forces, and the back are a group of small minions, how many of you look?"
Lin Zheng said: "Tang Bao and his five-grade masters, as well as these miscellaneous leaders, we will take them away, and you can deal with the other little minions by yourself." ”
Li Wuchang smiled: "Very willingly." ”
The actions of the crowd were very fast, and Tang Bao and his gang were escorted away, leaving some small minions with little use value.
Before leaving, Lin Zheng and the other four each left a silver seal, saying that it was a hardship fee for Li Wuchang.
When everyone arrived at the goal, they then said goodbye, which can be said to have come and gone in a hurry.
Li Wuchang was unusually polite and asked everyone to walk slowly.
After everyone left, Li Wuchang muttered, "The competition between the crown prince and the second highness is really hot. ”
Zhao Xun and Jiang Minglun on the side also understood.
Although Lin Zheng and Lu Xuandong are close, his eldest brother Lin Di is a popular person in front of the prince, so Lin Zheng's attitude is unknown for the time being.
Liu Qizheng Ma Kun and the second prince Lu Xuandong are close, and they are really the Xuandong Party.
Mu Tianfeng is the guard of His Royal Highness the Prince, and he is the right-hand man of the Prince, which is extraordinary.
This time, for the sake of a bandit leader, these people went into battle in person, making it clear that they didn't want the other party to get the first opportunity, and they had a feeling that every inch of land would be contested.
The young and strong generation also began to be errands, and their performance was strong.
There is still the situation of the Xiongnu on the battlefields of Jizhou and Yangzhou, and the juniors can't get involved, and the credit of ordinary errands needs to be precipitated and accumulated, and the bandits are different, and they can quickly show their faces.
Moreover, the places where the Fire Wolf Gang is causing chaos include Jingzhao County, which is not trivial.
Fat Bear heard Li Wuchang's self-talk and said, "Why did you have anything to do with the crown prince and the second highness?"
Zhao Xun said with a smile: "Fat bear, you just seriously think about how to dig three feet into the ground, in the next two days, you will go into the mountains to sweep away the miscellaneous forces, and when the time comes, you will follow in, and the looting will be handed over to you." ”
The fat bear patted his chest and said, "For such a trivial matter, Brother Xun, you can just give it to the old bear...... By the way, if we exterminate the rudder of the Fire Wolf Gang, can we take credit from the imperial court? ”
Li Wuchang came back to his senses and replied with a smile: "It's not us who exterminated it, it was Xue Tingshi and Dali Temple who joined forces to exterminate it, we can keep a low profile, don't shout all over the world." ”
Everyone nodded.
Li Wuchang said again: "Haozi brought some brothers to give these minions to Feng Yi Taishou, and we didn't bother to deal with it...... Take that person, Nie Quan and Xie Changhao, let them learn a little too, and find a time to recruit them in. ”
Cao Hao arched his hand and nodded yes.
Li Wuchang handed the silver seal to the fat bear, and said with a smile: "Count, see how much Tang Leopard they sold?"
The number of the four silver seals is the same, all of them are five thousand taels, and it seems that they were negotiated.
Zhao Xun smiled: "This is not a small amount, it seems that they are still very concerned about being stunned, and the meaning of wooing is obvious." ”
That's true, they originally wanted to sell it to Lin Zheng and Ma Kun, but Lu Xuanyi and Lu Xuandong intervened, if they really wanted Tang Bao, just send a sentence, how could they send hard money, it was clear that they meant to win over Li Wuchang.
Li Wuchang shrugged, did not comment, and said with a smile: "Fat bear, everyone has worked hard in the past two days, and their brothers will each give a bonus of one hundred taels, and the rest will be used as development funds, buy food or something in the future, and wait to copy the old nest of those bandits, see if you can make a small fortune, and then you have to think about the way to make money, let Zhuangzi have a better time first, and then compensate everyone when you really make a fortune." ”
Fat Bear and all the brothers smiled and thanked Li Wuchang, in terms of bonuses, this time it was the most.
For these brothers, Li Wuchang doesn't want to treat them badly.
Zhai Changping, Fat Bear, Cao Hao, Lu Desheng and several brothers who have followed Fat Bear for many years add up to nearly ten people, when they decided to follow Li Wuchang out of the city, Li Wuchang gave each of them a few hundred taels, that is not a bonus, but a settlement fee, since the moment they took over the silver tael, their fate was linked to Li Wuchang.
Not to mention Zhao Xun and Jiang Minglun, they were the first to follow Li Wuchang and experienced life and death together, and even Dongli Restaurant and Lu Ji had their share.
I don't know where I'll go in the future.
Jiang Minglun felt Li Wuchang's state of mind, and said with a smile: "Stunned, Heng and Zhi have been relatively calm in the past two days, or let's go to the ruins of the Fire Wolf Gang to look for it first, there must be no silver tickets, but there should be some copper coins and silver or something." ”
The fat bear was the first to agree, and said, "Yes, I really want to dig three feet into the ground for him this time." ”
Li Wuchang looked at the eager crowd and said with a smile: "It's okay, everyone is tired these days, go to the ruins of the Fire Wolf Gang to play, just look for treasures." ”
The Fire Wolves split the rudder.
It's a mess, and there's nothing wrong with calling it ruins.
Fortunately, the corpses of the bandits were burned after the end of the war, otherwise it would have been a terrible stench.
The place is not particularly big, but there are a lot of houses, and now they are all dusty, and it is difficult to find anything.
The fat bear is quite sharp, and he takes a few old guys to check around, each of them holding a long wooden stick in his hand, tilting from side to side, and occasionally pulling out a long knife to dig a dig, and it really feels like digging three feet into the ground.
From time to time, there were sounds of surprise.
"Haha, everyone, look, there are a lot of burned knives here, the materials are okay, and it's not bad to pull them back and re-furnace them. ”
"There's a lot of cutlery here, and it's a lot of money!"
"Wow, what kind of material is this brand made of, such a big fire has not been burned, it must be a good ironwood, and it is good to pull it back to make a small table!"
"What is Ironwood, there's a big vat here, and it's excellent to pull it back to take a shower. ”
"It's just a broken jar, you're a proud fart, look here, a good incense jar!"
"There is a hair in the incense jar, and there is a large pot here for boiling bone broth, which is enough for hundreds of people to drink. ”
"What a big vat is broken and the jar is broken, see what I have in my hand, the copper night pot, scared, it is absolutely cool to pee. ”
"It's made of copper, and at first glance, you can tell that it has been rubbed with a layer of paint. ”
Everyone shouted and screamed, and the things they found were not necessarily precious, but the tone was giggling and extremely happy.
"Hey, what is this place...... Heck, fuck, it's a pit!"
"Hahaha, Tang Leopard's guy actually hid all his money here, but he couldn't hide it from my old bear!"
As soon as everyone heard that there was money, they stopped what they were doing and rushed to the fat bear.
There was a lot of money, but it was all copper plates, a big pile, and the strings had been burned, and the copper coins were scattered, and they were covered with dust and dirt.
Zhao Xun glanced at it slightly, and calculated: "Four or five thousand should be there, not less." ”
One thousand copper coins is consistent, and more than four or five thousand yuan is indeed a lot in terms of the number of copper coins, but copper plates are copper plates, how can they be compared with silver.
Jiang Minglun sighed: "No wonder they all say that Feng Yijun has no oil and water, the money and property stolen by these bandits are all copper plates, and you can't see a single tael of silver, but after scraping so many copper plates, they are all people's fat and people's ointment, which is really hateful." ”
This pile of copper coins is not much to exchange for silver, but everyone is very happy.
Li Wuchang said with a smile: "It's also a harvest, okay, a few of you fat bears, you can carry as much as you can count as your own, the rest will be put into a sack and put on a donkey cart to pull away, part of the compensation will be used for the villagers, and the rest will be used as development funds. ”
Everyone laughed, since following Li Wuchang, everyone rarely used copper plates, and they were usually broken silver.
Jiang Minglun reminded: "Take away the pile of ironware, now that the war is fierce, Dayan ironware is not enough, the price has risen, let's pull it back to the furnace, and it is also good to build some farm tools for the farmers." ”
The sacks were all prepared in advance, and the fat bear and the others carried one by one, and then shave copper plates into it like a marmot.
I was stunned just now, and I can count as much as I can carry, which is an unexpected joy.
Fat Bear is okay, he finally has some martial arts, as for Lu Desheng and a few guys who are not very good at martial arts, their strength is limited, and they will definitely not be able to carry a sack.
"Hahaha, it's still my old bear who has the strength, brothers, look at my ...... Oops, my waist. The fat bear carried a bag of copper coins on his back, and just wanted to stink, but he almost flashed his waist.
Zhao Xun, Jiang Minglun, Zhai Changping, and Cao Hao didn't mess around with them, while carrying the loaded sacks onto the donkey cart, they smiled and watched the excitement.
