Although Wan Tiangui already doesn't look at Zhou Wen as an ordinary rich man, walking on mountain roads and at night is no joke. The disadvantage is getting injured or even losing his life. He doesn't want any accidents to happen to such a good financial backer.
Seeing that Wan Tiangui wanted to speak, Zhou Wen said with a smile: "I know Master Wan's kindness. Just watch from behind. If it doesn't work, how about you lead the way?"
Speaking of which, Wanda Gui couldn't argue anymore. Anyway, the beginning of the road was quite smooth. You would know whether you could walk or not.
After the others left for about an hour, Wan Tiangui was immediately convinced. Not only was he convinced, but he was also incredibly convinced.
Can you be dissatisfied? You are not affected at all in this dark night. Not only are you walking fast on the mountain road, you can even see the forked road 100 meters ahead clearly. It is no different from driving during the day.
What shocked him even more was that the long guns and short cannons carried by the young master's men seemed to have no weight at all. They were so light and calm along the way that they didn't even breathe. Especially the tall guy, who was carrying a machine gun and two long rifles across his back, walking on the mountain road as if walking on flat ground, just like for fun.
It turned out that in order not to cause trouble, when they separated, Zhou Wen carried all the spears he brought this time on his own. Miaohua, Xu Dacheng and the others took the box cannons into Jianchang Camp.
Jianchangying is the town closest to Lengkou Pass, and the garrison inspections must be strict. It is not safe to hide these long guys in the car. If they are discovered, you will be in trouble. You have so many spears in a caravan, and even some Machine gun, are you going to rebel or what? How do you explain that?
If there was no such path, Zhou Wen originally planned to ask a few team members to wait outside the city, but now he might as well lead a few of them along the path.
Wan Tiangui was thinking about it. Looking at this young master's actions and abilities along the way, he was afraid that he was not as simple as the young owner of Fuyuan Company. Among his young subordinates, not only did this young master obey his words, but they also followed rules and regulations in every move they made. , he looks like someone who lives with a gun, so he definitely didn’t go to Lengkou Pass to gain knowledge. He is not a high-ranking official, right?
Not to mention, Wan Tiangui is more knowledgeable than ordinary country people. He found some clues through the behavior of these team members, and his guess was quite accurate.
He also discovered that although Zhou Wen had a kind attitude, his words and deeds always had the aura of a superior, even more elegant than the officers he had seen before.
He then thought about Zhou Wen's previous attitude towards his nephew. He was not pretending, he really wanted to recruit his nephew away, and he began to feel entangled in his heart.
If this young master is really a high-ranking official, and his nephew can be appreciated by such a person, it will be like smoking in the ancestral grave and burning incense.
Instead of letting my nephew live in this poor ravine for the rest of his life, it is really better to let him go out with this young master and have a career. In a few years, maybe our Lao Wan family can also become an official, right?
Besides, this young master is a man of great benevolence and righteousness. Even the three Panshanhu brothers did not treat him badly. He was even more generous to his uncle and nephew. Now the five oceans hidden in his chest are still warm in his heart. This is just a deposit. , and the young master also said that when the things they said coldly are finished, there will be a reward of no less than this amount, and rewards will be given if they do a good job.
Think about it, that’s more than a dozen oceans. My dear, I’ve never seen so much money in my life. It’s a lucky turn of events for me, Lao Wan, to meet such a big benefactor with such generous spending.
No, no matter what, I have to convince my eldest brother and sister-in-law to let my nephew follow this young master to see the outside world.
Wan Tiangui was still thinking about how to tell his family, but he didn't know that a group of uninvited guests came to his home in the afternoon.
…
Back in the afternoon, more than ten miles outside Lengkou Pass, there is Lengkouwai Village, located at the foot of Fenghuang Mountain.
Lengkouwai Village is said to be a village, but in fact it is a small village with only eight households.
The history of Lengkouwai Village is not long. At first, it was just a sleeping place for hunters in the mountains. A few thatched houses were built beside a stream. Later, seeing that this land was mostly ownerless, a few hunters simply moved there. He came here and hunted for a living while letting his family open up wasteland and farm in this mountainous area. Later, several families moved in one after another with relatives and friends.
Now there are only eight families, and most of them have the surname Wan.
The villages around Lenkou Pass are all named after Lenkou as the coordinate. There are Lenkou East Village and Lenkou West Village, both of which are within the pass. Wanjia’s small village was built outside the pass, so the locals call it It is called Lengkouwai Village or Kouwai Village.
Country people only eat two meals a day, so it is not yet four o'clock in the afternoon, but smoke is rising from every house, shrouding a small mountain village in clouds of smoke.
Wan Qiangui was sitting on a mound at the south entrance of the village, sipping the dry pipe in his hand, squinting under the western sun, and looking towards the mountain road to the south from time to time.
Although Wan Qiangui is not even fifty yet, due to being exposed to the wind and sun all year round in the mountains and fields, his face has long been covered with layers of terraces like tree bark. He accidentally fell into a ravine while hunting in the early years. His leg was broken and he was lame. He was a good hunter who could be counted for dozens of miles around, but now he can only help with some farm work at home.
Fortunately, his brother Wanda Gui's job is not bad, and he has a good gun, so the family's livelihood is not worried.
Both Wan Qiangui brothers' parents died young. It can be said that Wan Tiangui was raised by his elder brother, so the brothers have a very good relationship.
After Wan Qian Gui became lame, his originally promised marriage was rejected by others and he regretted the marriage. He didn't marry a girl from a refugee family who was passing by when he was thirty years old.
The younger brother, on the other hand, had to wait until his elder brother got married before he began to think about his own marriage. After the two brothers got married, they also lived in separate houses without separate kitchens. The two families have been living together, and they have lived in harmony for more than ten years.
The older brother had a son soon after getting married, while the younger brother only got a daughter in his early thirties. One was the only Miaomiao of the Wan family, and the other was a daughter who had gone through all kinds of difficulties to get it, so these two children were the daughter of Wan. The two babies at home are always very loving and protective.
Wan Qiangui was smoking a dry cigarette, but he was thinking that his brother and son would probably be back in the next two days, because it would snow heavily in a few days and the mountain road would be blocked.
Thinking of his son, Wan Qiangui felt a wave of warmth in his heart. Apart from his stupid mouth, this child has been well-behaved and sensible since he was a child. He is also filial to his elders in the family. The most gratifying thing is that he is also kind to his seven-year-old sister. She loves her very much. Every time she goes hunting with her uncle and comes back, she always tries her best to bring her a gift for her sister.
