Zhang Yuanzhi led eight brothers from the original Black Tiger Mountain to come over early in the morning to listen to Kong Rui's dispatch, but saw that Zhao Xiuying had changed into men's clothes, and also led eight or nine people to drive two carts and pull a few empty boxes to set off together.

Walking to the road in the mountains, Kong Rui realized that his twenty people and two carts were walking on this silent mountain road so dazzling, although it was said that the people had all evacuated from the vicinity of the mine valley, but who knew if those cunning people had other insidious means to stay nearby, thinking of this, Kong Rui couldn't help but be a little worried.

Zhang Yuanzhi also seemed to think that their group was too conspicuous, so he asked Kong Rui and Zhao Xiuying: "Brother Lin, Miss Zhao, why are many of us walking here, will it attract the attention of the sinister people?"

Kong Rui was also thinking about this problem, but he only heard Zhao Xiuying say with a big grin: "This is still in the middle of the mountains, and there are also several nearby mountains where there are still my brothers stationed, what can be the problem?"

Kong Rui and Zhang Yuanzhi heard her say this, although they were a lot more relieved, they were still cautious.

That night, the people still set up temporary tents on the roadside and settled down.

Kong Rui used his mana slightly, and felt that the forbidden disk in the mine valley no longer had a suppressive effect on him, so he took out the seized communication array disks from the storage bag, and quietly called Zhang Yuanzhi and said: "Second brother Zhang, these are all communication array disks seized from the hands of the stingers, and it is useless for me to keep them, so you can take them back to the mining valley." ”

Zhang Yuanzhi already knew about this, and he was not surprised, so he said to Kong Rui: "Then thank you, Brother Lin." In this way, after I have done a matching of the teleportation array, I will still have my brother with me, and I can easily contact him if I need it. Kong Rui naturally agreed.

After receiving Zhang Yuanzhi's matching communication array, Kong Rui said again: "Second Brother Zhang, I always feel that something is not very right these days, and there are many of us, it is easy to be discovered by others, it is better for you all to go back to the mine tomorrow, and it is convenient for me to act alone." ”

"That's fine, but I don't know what Brother Lin brought these two big cars for?" Zhang Yuanzhi asked.

"I came from elsewhere with some autumn breeze, and I just brought it back by you as a gift for you to come to the mining valley from Black Tiger Mountain, and you two will be able to talk better in the future. Kong Rui said with a smile.

When Zhang Yuanzhi was in Kongjia Town, he knew that Kong Rui had a lot of money, and he was righteous and squandering money, but he didn't expect that he also planned to bring some property back for him to consolidate his relationship with Zhao Er, so he solemnly bowed to Kong Rui and said: "Then I will thank Brother Kong on behalf of all my brothers in Black Tiger Mountain." ”

"Second Brother Zhang is polite, we are fellow villagers, and I have been taught under Lingzun Hall since I was a child, so I should be like this. Kong Rui hurriedly said, and after speaking, he took out a storage bag containing silver money and property, and said: "This matter must be kept secret enough not to be known to some dissenting people." ”

"The eight brothers I brought with me are all strong-willed people, and I think they can be trusted. Zhang Yuanzhi naturally knew Kong Rui's worries.

"Well, let's go to their tent, and let your brother carry the boxes outside the tent, and the two of us will fill the boxes inside. Kong Rui arranged.

"This is a good law, and there shouldn't be any problems. Zhang Yuanzhi also nodded.

Kong Rui only took out half of the silver money he had searched from Gao Qiao, there were thousands of taels of gold and tens of thousands of taels of silver, although Zhang Yuanzhi knew that Kong Rui had a lot of money, but he didn't expect such a amount, and couldn't help but look a little dumbfounded.

Seeing that Zhang Yuanzhi was a little out of shape, Kong Rui whispered to him: "These are all snatched by my brothers from those scheming people, and they must have been scavenged from the people of my Great Yan Country, so it can be regarded as returning them to our Great Yan Country." ”

Zhang Yuanzhi realized his actions at this time, and hurriedly replied: "I didn't expect Brother Lin to have such a net worth, if you let others know, you will inevitably be coveted." ”

Kong Rui's heart moved, and he smiled and said, "Brother is a cultivator, and he doesn't care about money and things. But it's up to him to snatch it from me. ”

Zhang Yuanzhi nodded and said, "As far as Brother Lin's ability is concerned, no one must dare to do this." Kong Rui smiled slightly, didn't answer him, and took out Mr. Zhang's bookcase and other things and put them aside.

Zhang Yuanzhi saw that Kong Rui had already packed the money and goods into the wooden box here, so he walked out of the tent with Kong Rui and ordered the eight brothers in a low voice: "You must keep your mouth shut about tonight's matter, and you must not leak it out no matter what. The eight men whispered yes, and he ordered them to seal the wooden boxes and move them into the tent, and then they entered the tent with Kong Rui to guard the boxes of belongings.

Early the next morning, Kong Rui came out of the tent as if he was fine, and was about to discuss with Zhao Xiuying that they should all escort the carts and wooden boxes back to the mine valley, and he could continue to Suidu.

I didn't want Zhao Xiuying to see Kong Rui as soon as she saw it, so she asked directly: "Brother Kong, what were you busy with last night? ”

It turned out that Zhao Xiuying's subordinates discovered Kong Rui and Zhang Yuanzhi's movements at that time, but they didn't dare to approach to investigate at that time, so they had to wait until dawn to report to Zhao Xiuying.

Kong Rui also knew what he was hiding from her, so he said: "It's nothing, just put some of the belongings brought from Black Tiger Mountain into a box, and I was also planning to discuss with you." You should go back and take these things back to the mine with you. ”

As soon as she heard that there was property, Zhao Xiuying immediately became interested, and hurriedly lowered her voice and asked, "How much money do you have?" ”

"These are all things that Brother Chen has in Black Tiger Mountain, I just brought them here for him. If you want to ask you, ask Brother Chen. Kong Rui smiled.

"Forget it. Did you just say that we all have to go back to the mine valley now?" Zhao Xiuying thought about it, knowing that she couldn't ask about such a thing, so she had to give up.

"Of course, you want to send me to Suidu?" Kong Rui smiled.

"I have other tasks after sending you out of the mountain this time, and I must go to Qingshui Town. Zhao Xiuying replied.

Originally, because the mine valley was blocked by the people for many years, although there was no shortage of food and pig iron, and there were some secret channels in the mine valley that could get some other resources into the valley, but because the channels were limited, the risk and cost were also extremely high, and the number of materials obtained each time was not much, and those daily resources such as silver money, cloth and other materials were relatively lacking; especially salt, which was even more expensive and difficult to find, had a huge impact on the lives of people in the mine valley.

Zhao Er and Yang Liqing immediately thought that this was an opportunity after careful discussion, and quickly sent a lot of spies to inquire about the specific situation, hoping that they could mine some iron ore as an economic source in the valley in the future, so as to solve the shortage of other materials in the valley.

Zhao Xiuying naturally knew about this matter, so she applied to Zhao Er to go out to help find out the news, Zhao Er of course knew his sister's temperament very well, and knew that she was not suitable for doing such things, so he made excuses at will not to allow her to go out; Zhao Xiuying also guessed that her brother doubted her ability, and she was angry, so she secretly decided to find a way to go out of the mountain and make some achievements for her brother to see, it happened that Kong Rui and Chen Daniu and others returned to the mine valley, and Kong Rui was going to leave soon, Zhao Xiuying insisted on sending Kong Rui out of the mountain, and by the way, he wanted to come out to inquire about some news; for such a reason, Zhao Er naturally could not object, and thought of having Kong Rui and Zhang Yuanzhi go with him, there should be no problem in terms of safety, so I had to agree to her after some advice.
