It turns out that as a bookkeeper, there is still so much work to do.
Li Yang sighed: "It's not easy to get that secret book."
And at this time, he had a hot task, which was to pick up a batch of books, and he wanted to hand-pick them.
It's just that these books were seized by road bandits, and Li Yang still needs to return these books.
A disciple reported: "Do you want to bring someone with you, Master?"
Li Yang replied: "Just call a few people. You don't know martial arts. If you go there, it will cause more trouble."
"Okay, I'll go call someone right now."
The scholar called some strong men.
Li Yang took them down the mountain and climbed up another mountain to the top of the mountain where the road bandits were.
A few people walking wildly stared at them, "Who are you? You dare to break into any place. You are very brave."
Li Yang replied calmly: "At noon today, your people robbed a batch of books from the academy, and I am here to get them."
The few people behind Li Yang also had fierce looks on their faces. If someone hadn't taken the lead, they would have gone up to argue with these road bandits.
The person opposite raised an eyebrow and said, "If you want to take the book, you have to pay for it. It must be at least this amount. It doesn't matter if it's less, otherwise you won't be able to take it away."
They thought they had picked up a big fat piece of meat, so they had to pay a heavy price.
Li Yang thought it was only fifty taels of silver, but he could still afford it.
"Here are fifty taels of silver for you. Please hand over the book."
Before the money was taken, the bandit frowned and said, "Fifty taels? No, it's five hundred taels, but I can ask for less. Give me two hundred taels."
These road thieves robbed others of their belongings and gave them back. Li Yang looked cold and said, "Greedy is not enough for a snake to swallow an elephant."
No matter how much money they give, Li Yang will teach them a lesson today.
Without a few moves, he beat these people to the point where they knelt down and begged for mercy.
"Spare your life, hero, isn't it just a cart full of books? I'll give them back to you now."
At this time, they pushed a cart of books over. Li Yang checked it and found that not a single book was missing.
"Don't worry, hero. We won't touch these books. We took them intact and will return them to you if they don't move."
They had never seen someone with such strong martial arts skills before, and they were really scared out of their wits.
Li Yang gave them ten taels of silver, and several of them held the silver in their hands as if they had found a treasure.
"What is this, hero?"
"We don't dare to ask for it. This can't be done. We'd better give it back to you."
"From now on, you will help escort and collect the books. The academy will reward you with money from now on. You are not allowed to rob other people's money in the future. If you don't listen, I won't let you live." Li Yang said with cold eyes.
After hearing this, several people quickly responded: "Yes, we will definitely be good people from now on. Thank you for the reward, hero."
Several book disciples began to return pushing the book cart.
On the way, he was still praising Li Yang for his awesomeness.
"Li Zhangshu is really powerful. He not only took back the books, but also taught them a lesson and made them correct their evil ways."
"Yes, otherwise this cartload of books will be useless. We have lost a lot of books in the past, and the road bandits around here are a hidden danger."
Amid their praise, they arrived at the academy and all the new books began to be put into storage.
After finishing the warehousing work, Li Yang could no longer straighten his waist. Who asked him to have these responsibilities?
When he went to eat, the kitchen left him a deluxe meal.
"Li Zhangshu, please eat quickly. We know you have finished eating, so we specially set it aside for you."
The fat guy in the kitchen was a good person, but Li Yang was not sure about the others, so he tried it with a silver needle. When he found that it was not poisonous, Li Yang started to eat with confidence.
After finishing the meal, Xiaopang came over and said, "I heard that Li Zhangshu has made another great contribution. I guess the mountain chief will promote you again."
Li Yang really didn't know, "It doesn't matter, I really don't care about this."
"It's really a drought. I've been working as a chef for eight years and I haven't been promoted once. I also want to manage books, but they won't let me." Xiaopang said with a bitter smile.
The little fat man was holding an iron spoon and looked very happy.
"Your cooking skills are good, you are already the best. Everyone has their own division of labor. Even if you manage books, won't your cooking skills be buried?"
Hearing Li Yang's words, he suddenly understood, "You are right, maybe I am the destiny of the God of Cooking."
"I really can't bury the cooking skills my mother gave me. I have to carry them forward."
"That's right." Li Yang replied, "I'm full and I'm leaving now."
Li Yang stood up and left the cafeteria. Xiaopang held up a spoon and said, "Walk slowly."
He returned to the room, feeling sleepy all at once.
"Sleep and sleep, this is more tiring than leading troops to fight."
The workload of being a bookkeeper is staggering.
And at the same time.
Over at the camp, I also received a reply from Li Yang.
After reading the letter, Hao Liu felt confident, "King Yi Xing is right, you must pay attention to the enemy's sneak attack."
He sent people to get ready and began to build defenses to block the enemy's sneak attack.
…
The next day.
The mountain chief said: "Today is the academy's annual physical strength test. Everyone in the academy must participate. The top three will receive a jade book. Today is different from previous years. There is an extra reward for the first place. It’s a golden book, and those who want to get these rewards should work harder.”
"If everyone is ready, you can set off. Just like in previous years, we will be divided into ten groups, and we will draw lots to determine the number of people."
Li Yang drew the seventh group, and there were only seven people in it. Of course, the fewer people, the better. With more people, there would be more things to do. Seven people were just the right number.
"Let's go now."
"By the way, I forgot to remind you that you must be careful in this year's test."
Everyone started to set off.
"I don't know what Chief Shan means. Isn't it the same in previous years? Why do you remind me again this year?"
"Isn't it because this year's test is different from previous years? I'm afraid something terrible will happen."
"These are just our thoughts, and we can't be sure yet."
The people in Li Yang's group were pretty good, most of them were disciples, and there was only one person with a higher position than himself, and that was a middle-aged man who held the position of guild leader.
"Then let's go too."
Several people began to leave the academy and follow the direction on the map.
Li Yang knew the map very well and he analyzed the route in no time.
"If we take this route, the time will be shortened, and we can avoid many dangers. Maybe we can be the first to return to the academy."
“If we’re lucky, we can still finish in the top three.”
Upon hearing this, the leader objected: "No, you can't choose this place. We have experience and should listen to us. This road is very dangerous."
