Chapter 18: The Underground Dart Master

PS: The red ticket lacks stamina, and the domineering needs fierce fire support!

"Yes, at least tens of thousands, a little better, more expensive, hey...... Ling'er, our family has no money, and my father has a lot of things he wants to buy. Wan Ziyu sighed.

"Daddy wants a spar?" Wan Ling'er rolled her eyes.

"Yes, after you gave my dad that superb spar last time, my father's cultivation has increased greatly, but it is still a little bit away from breaking through, just a little bit, presumably, I want another piece...... I'm just saying, let's talk about it...... Ahem...... Tell me......" Wan Ziyu saw that Chen's face was not good, and immediately coughed twice in embarrassment.

"You two, don't do business, but spend money all day long, although Wanjia has some industries, but, the profits are meager, inside and out, to feed hundreds of people, five years ago, you spent money to buy a spare, Wanjia's funds almost had problems, later, Ling'er clamored for a flying sword, but also hollowed out the family, if you are still allowed to toss like this, Wanjia will close sooner or later. Chen snorted coldly.

"Ahem...... Ling'er is a girl, it is right to buy a better flying sword for self-defense, I am here...... It's a bit undeserved, don't worry, I won't buy spars again......" Wan Ziyu swore a promise.

"Buying is definitely going to be bought, and that's what you do. When the financial resources of the Wanjia family recover, I will buy you a little more spars, so that you will not be sad all day long. Chen sighed.

"Mrs. Xie Lu, Mrs. Xie Lu. Wan Ziyu was immediately overjoyed.

"I didn't say buy it now, so don't thank you too early. Chen glanced at Wan Ziyu.

"Uh-huh, no hurry, no hurry. ”

"By the way, in a few days, I'm going to go to Tongcheng, go back and live for a few days, I'm afraid it will take more than a month, and I may not come back until the New Year, you two will settle down, don't toss around. ”

"Madame, don't worry, just go, I will help you watch Ling'er. ”

"Look at me, I'll watch you. Wan Ling'er scoffed.

"Don't make any noise, in short, if any of you are restless, in the future, don't think about buying anything. ”

"Of course, of course. Hey, ma'am, didn't we go to Tongcheng last year, and what happened this year?"

"My brother-in-law has given birth again. ”

"Gave birth again" Wan Ziyu said with wide eyes: "Didn't he already give birth to five?"

"Yes, I gave birth to a sixth one this time, but I am really prosperous...... Hey, we ...... Wanjia" Chen glanced at Wan Ling'er, and his face showed a hint of melancholy.

"Our Wan family is very good, you see, Ling'er is so well-behaved. By the way, why don't you let me and Ling'er accompany you?" Wan Ziyu hurriedly diverted the topic.

"Xujiaqiao has been a little messy recently, you and Ling'er stay at home better, I'll go back quickly." Okay, I'm tired, let's rest for a while. Chen seemed to be aroused, frowned, put down the needle and thread in his hand, and walked into the inner room.

"Dad, why don't you have a few more children?" Wan Ling'er asked after Chen left.

"This ...... Your mother is a little sick and can't have children for the time being. Wan Ziyu hesitated for a moment and sighed.

"No way?"

"There is a way, I heard that in the Qiyang Mountain ("The Classic of Mountains and Seas 61 Qiyang Mountain"), there is a beast on the mountain, called Lu Shu, eat it, you can reproduce. ”

"Then why don't you catch it?"

"Grandma, that's in the flood generation, the mountains are 100,000, and it's just a legend, you can't find it, you can catch it, you can catch it......"

......

Time passed unconsciously, and it was only a little more than a month before the Chinese New Year, and the weather was getting colder and colder.

The number of people paying rent has gradually decreased, and many short-term workers have returned home, but the Wanjia East Courtyard has not become idle.

The mountains of grain in the warehouse in the east courtyard began to be transported to the big city, and every day there would be a horse team carrying the grain out of the east courtyard.

Zhao Yuan found that in addition to those porters, some tall bears began to appear in the horse team, those big men were not afraid of the cold, wore leather armor, carried blades, and were extremely arrogant in the eastern courtyard, and some workers would be beaten and scolded if they were not careful.

This strange phenomenon caught Zhao Yuan's attention.

Zhao Yuan has been in the Wanjia family for more than two months, and he has never seen these people appear, and these people are all coming with the horse team.

On this day, another group of rugged men with unfamiliar faces came with the horse team.

"Brother Pao, who are those people?" Zhao Yuan Zhu was strolling around the East Courtyard of Wanjia, and when he stayed by Zhao Yuan's side, Zhao Yuan pointed to the group of big men who were resting by the well and asked......

"Underground Dart Master. Zhu Dacang glanced at it, lowered his voice and said, "It's all rough people, don't mess with them." ”

"What is an underground dart master?" Zhao Yuan looked puzzled, he had heard of the dart master, but he had never heard of the underground dart master.

"It's some people who are not qualified to be bodyguards, secretly undertaking some business and mixing a bowl of rice to eat, our thousands of businesses are operating some agricultural products, this is a small profit, and we can't afford to hire those regular dart shops, so we can only ask some underground dart masters to accompany them to protect. ”

"Why do you want to invite it, remember that you didn't invite it before?"

"This year's weather is abnormal, especially cold, I heard that many places and drought and floods, harvest, famine, that is, on some official roads, there are green forest robbers infested, it is said that in some places, there are people who occupy the mountains as kings, often hundreds or thousands, the government can not cope with it. We're pretty good on our side, but it's just some petty thieves, and hiring some underground dart masters is enough to deal with it. ”

"Oh......"

"By the way, do you know Ling'er?" Zhu Dacang suddenly asked casually.

"Ling'er, who?"

"Wan Ling'er. Zhu Dacang was stunned, he saw that Zhao Yuan was not pretending.

"I don't know. Zhao Yuan shook his head.

"However, she said she knew you and asked you a few times. Zhu Dacang's face showed a hint of suspicion.

"Oh...... You're talking about the girl who came to the East Courtyard last time?"

"Well, it's her, she's our Wanjia Miss. Zhu Dacang's spirit was lifted, and he looked at Zhao Yuan with wide eyes, as if he wanted to see through Zhao Yuan's internal organs.

"I once met a young lady when I was passing by Xiaoyang Mountain. ”

"I've seen it once. ”

"Once. ”

"Oh......" Zhu Dacang's face seemed to be a lot more relieved.

"Pillar, hard, hard!"

"Good!"

Just when Zhu Cannon asked Zhao Yuan, suddenly, there was a sound of cheering and coaxing, the two looked over, and saw that by the well, a large group of people gathered in a circle, and the two hurriedly squeezed over, it turned out that it was a porter who was wrenching with an underground dart master on a small wooden table.

The two of them were in a state of stalemate, the green tendons on their necks were bulging, and their faces were flushed.

"One, two, three!" Suddenly, the dart master shouted, and suddenly with a force, the porter fell down in response, "Ha Luha, give money and money, just like you bear, you still want to compare with Lao Tzu." ”

The porter looked frustrated, pulling out a few Imperial Coins from his bosom.

It turned out that everyone was idle, and someone proposed to compete for who had the best hand, and made some small bets.

"Who else? one by one. "After the victorious dart master stood up straight, his figure was extremely majestic, like an iron tower, and at first glance he was a powerful man.

Another porter went up to meet him, but he just shouted "one" and then fell down.

Several porters lost one after another, and a group of porters were not convinced, but they were helpless.

"Call the Iron Bull. A porter suggested.

"Yes, yes, we actually forgot about Iron Bull and called him. ”

"Go, call all of you, uncle, I'm not afraid of wheel battles, halu ha......" The dart master laughed arrogantly.

Soon, someone with good deeds called the iron bull who was nesting in the room to roast the fire.

"Just you?" the tower-like dart master looked down at the dwarf iron bull with a look of contempt.

"Come on," Iron Bull said without saying much, placing his hand on the wooden table.

"How much is the bet?" the dart master was not in a hurry, and his face was playful.

"One hundred Imperial Coins. ”

"One hundred, hahaha, no, no, five hundred! bet or not?"

"Five hundred...... I won't gamble......" Tie Niu hesitated for a moment and shook his head. Five hundred imperial coins is a large amount for a porter, equivalent to nearly half a month's salary.

"Can I advance five hundred imperial coins?" Zhao Yuan asked Zhu Cannon beside him in a low voice.

"Yes. ”

"Brother Tie Niu, I'll help you out of five hundred, if you lose, it's mine, and if you win, you win half of us. Although Zhao Yuan and Tie Niu have known each other for a short time, they have a good relationship, so naturally they don't want to see Tie Niu endured.

"Okay!" Tie Niu glanced at Zhao Yuan, gritted his teeth, and nodded fiercely.

The atmosphere became enthusiastic, and almost the entire workers of the East Courtyard gathered around, and everyone hoped that Tie Niu would win, after all, Tie Niu was the trump card of the East Courtyard.

The two squatted on the horse, their arms clenched, and in a "start", the two exerted force at the same time.
