Chapter 80: Road Money
Zhang Hai saw that Duan Ke began to hesitate, and his heart perked up slightly, "You are robbing the Tao here, what you are doing is just the word money, if you don't have your life, what's the use of asking for so much money." You dislike that a hundred taels of silver is too little, and Zhang is willing to pay a thousand taels of silver as money to buy the road, I don't know if you can accept it?"
Saying this, Zhang Hai's heart was bleeding, this thousand taels of silver was the payment received on the way, and he had to use his savings for many years to compensate for it, and at the same time, he had to owe a large amount of money to the commercial bank, and he didn't know how many years it would take to pay it off.
It's just that if you can escape with your life under this heart-destroying hand and save these dozen truckloads of goods, this thousand taels of silver will be nothing.
That Duan Ke pondered for a while and said, "Okay, a thousand taels of silver, let you go." ”
This goods worth 10,000 gold were let go, which made him really unwilling in his heart, but who would have thought that there would be people from the official mansion in this caravan, and such a prominent background. Although he was ruthless, he really didn't want to make a feud with the town guard general who held a heavy army.
Zhang Hai took out the 1,000 taels of money from the convoy, showed it to Duan Ke, carefully placed it under the tree next to the road, and then said: "The silver is placed here, can you give way? ”
Duan Ke looked at the white silver shining silver on the side of the road, nodded, waved his hand, and shouted to the guards and thieves, "Let them pass." ”
Following the leader's orders, the bandits retreated into the woods beside the road and gave way to the road.
Zhang Hai commanded the convoy to walk carefully past the bandits in a dense formation. His heart tightened, and he held the steel knife in his hand, ready to meet the enemy. He was afraid that this group of bandits would suddenly repent, and suddenly attack when he and others were passing by.
Luo Yin, who has been sitting quietly in the car like an ordinary scholar, actually pays attention to the movement in front of him at all times, and once the two sides start to move, he is ready to rescue the people in the convoy, and by the way, teach this group of evil bandits a good lesson.
It's just that I didn't expect that the two sides didn't fight in the end, and the bandits that the team bought for 1,000 taels of silver actually gave way, which made Luo Yin's plan fall through.
He chuckled softly, which would save the innocents in the convoy from being injured in the clashes. As for this group of bandits, after the convoy leaves Mopan Mountain, he will come back to them for a while, otherwise how can he let this group of bandits entrench here again and harm the merchants.
The innocent people who have been killed by the bandits over the years are still waiting for themselves to avenge them.
In front of the carriage that Luo Yin was riding, in a carriage, the yellow-clothed girl escorted by Li Ban and others, the daughter of the prefect, was frightened when she encountered the bandits, and hid in the carriage to pray to all the gods and Buddhas he knew, praying that he could escape the poisonous hands of the bandits this time.
She regretted that she had chosen not to take a detour instead of taking this dangerous mountain path to save time.
I don't know if her prayers worked, and the bandits finally agreed to let them go. Hearing this, the girl's heart finally settled down a little.
As the convoy passed by the woods where the bandits were, the girl peeked out through the cracks in the curtain of the carriage, and she wanted to see what these murderous bandits looked like, whether they were the abominable faces of the green fangs in people's mouths.
Through a small gap in the curtain, she saw the appearance of this group of bandits, although they were not the legendary blue-faced fangs, but they were also holding weapons one by one, exuding bursts of cold air. And among this group of bandits, there is a handsome man dressed as a scribe, personable, gentle and elegant.
At this moment, a gust of wind suddenly blew in the mountains, and the wind was strong, blowing up the curtains of the carriage, revealing the handsome face of the girl in yellow in the carriage.
The girl was startled when she saw the curtains in front of her being blown up. At this moment, she saw the handsome scribe's eyes on her, as sharp as a sharp knife, stabbing people uncomfortable, and like a poisonous snake staring at its prey, it made people shudder.
She retracted into the carriage like a frightened bunny, and her heart began to pound.
Duan Ke was unhappy when he saw a pile of silver about to pass by him, and at this time, a strong wind suddenly blew in the mountains, lifting the curtain of a carriage in the mountain road, revealing a beautiful face in the car.
His eyes instantly sharpened, as if he had seen something more precious.
"Wait!" Duan Ke yelled.
More than a dozen carts of belongings are gone, as long as you can get the beauty in this car and give it to the hall master, the lustful hall master will definitely give himself more rewards.
Hearing the leader's shout, the bandits around them clenched the weapons in their hands, and faced the convoy in the mountain road, waiting for the leader's order to rush directly to slash and kill.
Hearing the shouts of the bandits, the convoy, which had been on guard at all times, stopped instantly, and flashed a weapon at the bandit on the side of the road.
"Do you want to regret it?!" Zhang Hai raised the steel knife and pointed at Duan Ke and said angrily.
"Shicai thought it was only a dozen carts of silk before allowing you to buy a road for a thousand taels of silver. I didn't expect you to wait for this trip and there were other treasures hidden in it, which could not be bought by a thousand taels of road money. Duan Ke chuckled.
"In my convoy, except for a dozen carts of silk, there is no other cargo, if you want to break the contract, just say it, don't make excuses. Zhang Hai said angrily.
Duan Ke pointed to the carriage in front of him and said with a smile: "A gust of wind blew just now, and I saw that there was a beauty in this carriage." Wouldn't this beauty be more precious and valuable than your goods?"
Li Bantou saw that the thieves actually had the idea of the prefect's daughter, and said coldly: "This is the daughter of the prefect of my family, the niece of the general of the town, don't mess around with your thoughts!"
"Since there are beauties involved, this thousand taels of silver to buy the road is obviously not enough, you have to add money......" Duan Ke thought of the reward he would get for such a beautie, and he didn't take Li Bantou's words seriously anymore, and he would go back to the main hall after finishing this ticket, presumably the hall master would not let himself fall into the grass in this barren mountain and wilderness for the sake of his beauty.
"How much do you want to add before you can let us go?" Li Bantou said with a slight sigh of relief when he saw that he just wanted to add money.
"Beauty is like jade, it is a priceless treasure. I don't want much from you, but if you give you ten thousand taels of gold, you will naturally be able to pass through this place. Duan Ke laughed.
"You ......" Zhang Hai was angry, and Li Bantou was furious.
Then this passage continued: "Ten thousand taels of gold to buy a beautiful woman like jade, this is not expensive at all. Why, can't you afford it? It doesn't matter, I'll stay with the beauty first, and I'll take good care of this little beauty. When will you gather together ten thousand taels of gold, and when will you come again to redeem people. ”
As soon as the words fell, Duan Ke's figure flashed, and he rushed towards the carriage of the girl in yellow.
