It snowed heavily for a while, and Sun Lei wanted to leave early, but he couldn't help Chai Jin staying with him, and it was a loss of face, so he had to stay a little longer.
Chai Jin entertained Sun Lei and the others all day long, which really opened Sun Lei's eyes to the fact that the life of a nobleman could be so luxurious.
"Brother, it's a pity that the snow has not melted yet, so I can't go out hunting in the countryside. When the snow melts, I will take my brother and all the brothers out for hunting. There is a special hunting ground nearby."
Chai Jin smiled and said to Sun Lei and others.
"It's interesting. I haven't gone hunting formally yet. Is there any particularity to hunting?"
Sun Lei became interested and asked with a smile.
"Brother, this hunting is just a game, but hounds and eagles are indispensable. These three or five friends go hunting on horseback, and the eagles explore and the hounds hunt are also a great pleasure..."
Chai Jin introduced it with a smile. As a member of the royal family, he knew these pleasures very well.
As time went by, the government's manhunts gradually disappeared. Cangzhou was not a big city. If no one was found after several rounds of manhunts, it was assumed that the thief had escaped. They only issued a list of arrests, and the local officials stopped searching. Sun Lei was almost ready to leave.
"Erlang, do you want to go together?"
Lu Zhishen asked, looking at Wu Song holding the bundle.
"I have been away from home for a few months. I thought I would not dare to go home because of the lawsuit. Now that I am fine, I want to go back and see my brother."
Wu Song nodded and said that Sun Lei told him that there was no arrest warrant for him in Qinghe County. At that time, the official secret should have been knocked unconscious but not dead.
After learning that there was no murder, Wu Song returned home quickly. If the heavy snow had not stopped, he would have gone home long ago. Now Sun Lei and his party are going back to Liangshanbo, and he happens to be traveling with them.
"Erlang, we have to take a detour from Qingzhou this time, which may delay your time."
Sun Lei looked at Wu Song and said, Qinghe County is two hundred miles northwest of Liangshanbo. They are taking a detour this time. If Wu Song goes together, they will have to walk for at least an extra month, which is equivalent to making a big circle.
"Wu Song is lucky to be able to travel with his brother! With all the brothers accompanying him, I won't be lonely on this journey!"
Wu Song said that although he missed his brother in Qinghe County, he was also very close to the eldest brother he had just met in the world. It was so happy to get along with him these days. He was always a little reluctant to part ways, so it was better to go on the road together.
"Haha, it's even more lively when Erlang is walking with you!"
Lu Zhishen said with a smile that he was crazy and wished that the more good brothers the better.
"Let's leave early while the heavy snow stops!"
Sun Lei raised his feet and walked outside the courtyard.
"elder brother!"
As soon as he left the yard, Chai Jin came up with a group of stewards and servants.
"Master Chai!"
Everyone clasped their fists at Chai Jin. Chai Jin treated him very warmly these days.
"Brother, let me give you a gift!"
Chai Jin took Sun Lei's hand and said.
"Thank you, sir."
Sun Lei smiled and did not refuse.
"Brother, I have some horses on the farm, and I want to take a detour back to serve as a foothold."
Chai Jin pointed to the horses held by the servants and said.
"You're so polite, Mr. Chai. These are all good horses. Any one of them is extremely rare!"
Sun Lei looked at the horses. Each one was tall, slender, strong and powerful. No matter which one was better than Zhou Tong's horse in Taohuashan.
"It's just a horse. Brother Nengbo can just smile. There are no specialties in Cangzhou, but horses are easy to get!"
Chai Jin smiled and asked everyone to mount their horses.
"Master Chai, these horses are extraordinary. In such thick snow, these horses can walk on flat ground!"
After riding a horse for a while, Sun Lei looked at Chai Jin with a smile.
"My brother has a good eye. These are BMWs sold in Liaodong. Liaodong is bitterly cold all year round. These horses are very good at walking on snowy roads and can withstand cold weather. They are most suitable for use as foot power at this time."
Chai Jin introduced with a smile.
"Chai Daguan is interested!"
Sun Lei smiled and thanked him. It was really timely to bring in these horses. He was still thinking about how to drive in the snow yesterday.
We walked south for nearly ten miles amid laughter and laughter. This Liaodong war horse was truly amazing. It carried people for ten miles without even breathing.
"Master, we are already far away. We have to say goodbye after a long journey, so please come back."
Sun Lei looked at Chai Jin and said.
"The farewell of ten miles will eventually come to an end. I don't know when we will meet again! Brother, take care of yourself all the way. If you come to Cangzhou in your spare time, Chai Jin will definitely sweep up the bed to welcome you."
Although Chai Jin was reluctant to leave, he knew it was time to say goodbye.
"Don't worry, Mr. Chai, I will definitely come when I have time."
Sun Lei nodded and said, but these are just polite words. Everything will be complicated after returning, so it may be difficult to see him again.
"Brother, this is some money, just take it as your wish, brother, don't refuse!"
Chai Jin asked the servant to deliver a heavy box and said to Sun Lei.
"What are you doing, high official? I'm ashamed to have been bothering you in the village for more than a month. How can I ask for more money?"
Sun Lei declined, saying that although he was also short of money, he was still the master of the mountain, so he still had to pay for it.
"Brother, if you don't accept it, you're looking down on Chai Jin."
Chai Jin said without allowing Sun Lei to refuse. Sun Lei could only nod and let Ruan Xiaoqi and Shi Qian take the box.
"Master Chai, I have a tip bag here. If there is a crisis in the future, you can open it."
Sun Lei took out a prepared tips bag and handed it to Chai Jin. If Chai Jin was interested, he couldn't do anything wrong.
"Chai Jin will be kept close to his body!"
Chai Jin nodded heavily while holding the kit.
"People from Chai Daguan, the mountains are high and the rivers are long. See you in the rivers and lakes!"
Sun Lei cupped his fists at Chai Jin and said.
"The mountains are high and the rivers are long, see you in the world!"
Lu Zhishen, Lin Chong, Wu Song, Ruan Xiaoqi, and Shi Qian also cupped their fists at Chai Jin at the same time.
"Goodbye Jianghu!"
Chai Jin returned the salute with cupped fists.
After everyone parted, Chai Jin led the stewards and servants of the mansion back.
"Brother, Chai Daguan is so interesting. This box is so heavy!"
Ruan Xiaoqi smiled and said to Sun Lei. He kept touching the exquisite box in his hand. The fine sandalwood box. The heaviness alone proved its value.
"Brother Qi, open it and take a look!"
Shi Qian had an old habit of wanting to open the treasure when he saw it.
"If you want to see it, just see it!"
Seeing that everyone was interested, Sun Lei opened his mouth.
"okay!"
Ruan Xiaoqi couldn't wait to open the box, and saw a dazzling golden light. Inside the box was an ingot of brilliant yellow gold ingots.
"Oh my god, I'm afraid this is three thousand taels of gold!"
Shi Qian's mouth opened so much that the boss finally said this. As a master thief, these estimates are very accurate.
"Chai Daguan is such a generous person! Cai Jing's birthday plan is the largest one, but it only costs 100,000 yuan!"
Lin Chong was also full of surprise. He had once been rich and could buy a knife for a thousand gu without blinking an eye, but he couldn't even think of giving someone 30,000 gu for trouble.
"Chai Daguan is famous for being generous and giving away wealth, but only my brother should be worthy of such a heavy gift!"
Wu Song also sighed and said that he came to Cangzhou to avoid trouble because he was attracted by Chai Jin's righteousness and wealth and his willingness to take in the perpetrators. There were days when he heard and saw a lot in Chai Jin's house. It was common for Chai Jin to hand out twelve hundred taels. Yes, these tens of thousands of coins have never been seen before.
"This is not mine alone, it is ours together! This gift of thousands of gold is really a sincere and sincere gift!"
Sun Lei shook his head and said, Chai Jin is indeed worthy of being from the royal family. He has considered every detail. What he lacked the most when setting up a stronghold in Liangshan was money and food. These 30,000 yuan was a huge sum of money, enough to be used as start-up capital.
"As for brother, Mr. Chai Daguan has already given us a lot of money this morning. These are all prepared for brother!"
Ruan Xiaoqi shook his head and said, it turned out that Chai Jin had already given him some money when they were packing their luggage in the morning.
"Ha ha!"
Sun Lei could only laugh.
"Brother, what is the purpose of the tips you gave Mr. Chai?"
Lin Chong asked strangely.
"Haha, just think of it as a thank you, I hope he doesn't need it."
Sun Lei pretended to be mysterious and shook his head.
"Brother, you didn't invite him up the mountain to join the gang, did you? He is from Chai Daguan, his ancestors are from the royal family, and now he is rich, so there is no way he will come to Luocao."
Lu Zhishen looked at Sun Lei and said.
"Am I the kind of person who forcibly drags people up the mountain to join the gang? Going up the mountain must be done voluntarily, and force will not be sweet."
Sun Lei saw the worry on Wu Song's face, as if he was worried that it would be difficult to refuse Sun Lei's invitation to join the gang, and Wu Song had no idea yet.
