After hearing Tian Cheng's report, Qian Wen looked away from the bamboo slips and looked at him kneeling on one knee.
"Oh, found it?
Where is Gao Yao now? "
Three weeks ago, Qian Wen sent Shan Gen with a few servants to find Gao.
Because the place where the plague occurred in the play is called Shuijing Village, Yi Xiaochuan was infected with the plague, and Lu Su desperately saved him regardless of his own safety. Even with the physical strength of a weak woman, the unconscious Yi Xiaochuan could not run far.
Qian Wen asked Shan Gen and others not to go near the plague-infected Shuijing Village and to find Gao Yao in a nearby city. The secret code was 'tomato scrambled eggs'.
Now it seems that the direction he gave Yamane and others to search for is correct.
"Shan Gen didn't come back. He was afraid that the young master would be anxious to send a servant back to report the news.
Gao Yao was found in a restaurant in Gaofeng County, thirty miles away from Shuijing Village, and he was helping cook there when he was found.
However, because he didn't know Shangen and others, he was unwilling to come to Pei County with them.
Shan Gen reported that Gao Yao was in a very poor condition, his clothes were shabby, and he did not dare to look directly at people when talking to him. He must have suffered some kind of suffering.
Before Shan Gen asked his servant to come back and report, he told Gao that Mr. Yi was also in Pei County. Gao Yao hesitated, but Shan Gen said that if he could not invite him back peacefully, he would kidnap Gao and ask him to return to Pei County.
Young Master, this is all Shangen’s report. "
Is Gao Yao very depressed? It seems that his trajectory has not changed at all, or after suffering some hardships, he used his cooking skills to settle down in the Qin Dynasty.
"Okay, got it.
How is the situation at the cottage, and how is the situation with the bandits near Peixian County?" Qian Wen stood up and picked a wick to make the study brighter.
The wick of the lamp flickered, and uncertain shadows flickered in the study.
"Get up and talk." Qian Wen asked Tian Cheng, who had been kneeling on one knee, to sit on a chair beside him.
"Thank you, sir." Tian Cheng stood up and bowed before sitting down, sitting upright.
"Sir, we haven't had much idea about the cottage yet. We have too few manpower. It's too difficult to find a place that is secretive, easy to defend, difficult to attack, and unknown to people to build a cottage. We are still looking for it.
As for the thieves and bandits near Peixian County, we have roughly figured out the details of several thieves and bandits after this period of investigation.
There are thirteen gangs of thieves in total, and the largest group has hundreds of people, making it the largest group of thieves here.
The at least three or five people should be people from nearby villages. They rob strangers during their spare time in farming to subsidize their families.
There was a cottage among them, and seven groups of people settled there.
At present, the most suitable place for us to capture is Heifeng Mountain. There are thirty-six bandits. They burn, kill and loot. They have been surrounded and suppressed many times by Peixian County troops. However, the enemy is very slippery and never confronts them head-on. When they see infantry, they scatter into the mountains and forests. He ran away, waited for the infantry to leave, and then gathered a crowd to rob the road, giving the merchants passing by Pei County a headache.
We have Lord Zhentian, it will not be difficult to round them up.
And Youlinshan..."
Qian Wen knew that troubled times were approaching, and he was arranging his own self-protection plan step by step.
When looking for a copycat, the purpose of settling down is to cultivate a group of usable private armies, so that you can have all the possibilities.
Asking Tian Cheng to lead people to find out the situation of bandits near Pei County, Qian Wen wanted to borrow chickens to lay eggs and use their people to form his own private army. The most important thing was that they were all murderers. Qian Wen would not use their lives. Softhearted.
It's just that he has too few manpower now. Apart from him, Tian Cheng, Shan Gen, Zhao San, and Hu Quan are just a few hunters from other countries who want money or their lives to surrender to Qin.
Qin is still here, and he can't make a big splash about this matter, so so far his small team only has so many people.
Listening to Tian Cheng's detailed description, Qian Wen was thinking and planning in his heart.
There are not many others, so losing troops and generals is definitely not allowed.
Tian Cheng reported everything he found out, and suddenly said, "Wait a minute, you mean I have a hunter's relative who is a bandit, a bandit?"
Tian Cheng paused, stood up, clasped his fists, and said respectfully, "Yes, sir, it is Hu Lie's relative named Hu Lin. Because he killed people on the street, he became a bandit in Youlin Mountain. Because he was ruthless, he is now a small leader with ten people under his command."
Qian Wen asked Tian Cheng to sit down and not to bow to him at all, "I heard you just reported that there are fifty-three bandits in Linshan?"
"Yes, it was Hu Lie who helped Hu Lin escape after he killed someone. When things settled down, Hu Lin often came to see Hu Lie in disguise. Because of Hu Lie, we made the most detailed inquiries about the bandits in Linshan. They..."
Tian Cheng also explained in detail the situation of bandits in Linshan. Qian Wen thought about it and said, "Let Hu Lie ask Hu Lin to come out to meet him. Money is not an issue."
"Yes, sir."
After chatting with Tian Cheng for a while, he asked him to retreat and asked the maid to prepare some supper and think about something while eating the supper.
Three days later, Hu Lie's relative Hu Lin made an appointment. Qian Wen planned to meet Hu Lin in person to ensure the safety of his first hunt for bandits.
The meeting place was at Hu Lie's house in the west of the city. Qian Wen was not in a hurry and took the people to stroll by.
Halfway there, a strange smell of meat made Qian Wen turn his head.
Looking up, Qian Wen smiled and saw the dog meat shop, turned around and led people inside.
"Master Qian, sit down, sit down, haven't been here for a while, are you still the third child?" Fan Kuai, who was cutting dog meat, became enthusiastic when he saw Qian Wen. He wiped his hands and hurried forward to entertain him.
"Well, the third child is the same.
"Old Fan, why are there so few people today?" Qian Wen looked at the dog meat shop. There were only two and three people inside, but there were usually a lot of people. After all, Fan Kuai's dog meat is the best in Peixian County. Not only the people of Peixian County love to eat it, but also the passing merchants. People are also hungry for this bite.
Qian Wen sat down, accompanied by Tian Cheng, and the others sat at another table.
Tian Cheng wiped the table quickly with his hands and feet, and smiled flatteringly, "Master Qian, isn't it time to eat meat?"
"Fan Kuai, what are you thinking about? It's better to follow me than to stay in a small puppy butcher shop." Qian Wen looked at the busy Fan Kuai's back and said.
When he came to Peixian County, he knew about Fan Kuai and he had plans for the future. How could he not arrange for the famous Fan Kuai.
Some time ago, I came to Fan Kuai's place from time to time to taste dog meat, and the two of them became familiar with each other.
Of course, with Qian Wen's current status, Fan Kuai has always been careful to laugh with him. Friends, Qian Wen has one-sided ideas.
Fan Kuai quickly served a plate of dog meat, two side dishes, a pot of drunken immortal brew, and set out the bowls and chopsticks with quick hands and feet.
After doing all this, Fan Kuai smiled with a flattering expression, "Master Qian, what am I doing with you as a dog meat seller?
Bring tea and water, I'm afraid I'll make you angry.
When it comes to cooking in the kitchen, I can only eat dog meat. It’s delicious and I’m tired of it every day.
I really don’t know how to do anything else. "
Seeing Fan Kuai's face full of flesh but pretending to be honest, Qian Wen patted the seat beside him and asked him to sit down. He picked up a piece of dog meat and tasted it. It was really delicious.
"To be honest, I'm attracted by your strength, your roughness and fineness, and your shrewdness." Qian Wen said bluntly, staring at Fan Kuai.
The previous few times he came here, Qian Wen had just chatted casually. This time, he was looking at Fan Kuai's attitude towards him. He was talking about a rich man who likes to eat dog meat, so he couldn't be a close friend. He just came in for a casual stroll and showed off his face. Now I plan to cut through the mess quickly.
Being able to follow Liu Bang in the uprising shows that he is not someone who is willing to be ordinary.
What are the goals of the uprising, other than money, status, and women?
This is so easy for him now.
The current Fan Kuai doesn't know how capable he is. Of course, the current Fan Kuai is definitely not as good as the future general Fan Kuai, but he is worth investing in.
As long as the time traveler is unwilling to be ordinary, how can any famous general look ahead and not hook up a few times.
Fan Kuai was shocked. It was the first time he heard someone talk about him like this. He was a dog meat seller, just like a piece of grass on the roadside. No one would care about him. Hearing Qian Wen praise him so much, he felt very good in his heart.
Qian Wen, a well-known wealthy man in Peixian County, invited him so formally, how could he not hesitate a little.
But he was also a bit clever and timid, and couldn't make up his mind for a moment.
Seeing this, Qian Wen glanced at Tian Cheng who was standing beside him, then took out a medium-sized gold cake from his purse and placed it in front of Fan Kuai, making Fan Kuai jealous.
Gold cakes, he could hardly save this thing even if he sold dog meat for a lifetime. His eyes were hot for a while because of the gold cakes that were so close. Fan Kuai withdrew his eyes with restraint, looked at Qian Wen and said in confusion, "Master Qian, this is... …?”
Seeing Fan Kuai break away from the temptation so quickly, Qian Wen nodded secretly. There is indeed something to be said for being able to follow Liu Bang and eventually become a general.
"Do you dare to accept the money from your sacrifice?" Qian Wen looked at Fan Kuai with a faint smile on his lips.
Tian Cheng, who was on the side, also looked at Fan Kuai with an aggressive look. He had known that the young master wanted to take this stupid dog meat seller under his command. Although he could not see what was so strange about this guy that made the young master admire him so much, he knew that at this time, he What should be done.
Fan Kuai smacked his lips, looked at the gold cake and swallowed his saliva, paying for his life? This is too much.
A normal slave transaction in the Qin Dynasty only cost a few thousand dollars, and this piece of gold cake paid too much for selling one's life.
Moreover, Fan Kuai was very keen to realize that he, who was worth a fortune in the eyes of Mr. Qian, would not be an ordinary servant if he surrendered.
Seeing Fan Kuai's hesitation, Qian Wen said nothing and continued to eat the dog meat in front of him and drink his own Drunken Immortal Brew.
It's not his show anymore.
Tian Cheng slammed the table and the gold cake fell to the ground. Fan Kuai, who was thinking about it, was startled and looked at Tian Cheng quickly, "Steward Tian, what is this?"
"You ignorant bastard, my young master thinks highly of you, so he has a friendly discussion with you. You still dare to hesitate. You have to accept the gold cake today, whether you accept it or not, otherwise my family The young master is magnanimous, and I, Tian Cheng, cannot let my young master be humiliated.
From now on, you don’t have to stay in Peixian County. "
After Tian Cheng finished speaking, Qian Wen said angrily before Fan Kuai could speak, "Tian Cheng, what are you doing? Look, look at the stains on my body, young master. You are so upset that you dare to slam the table in front of me."
Qian Wen scolded Tian Cheng angrily, and went up to him and kicked him to the ground. Then he looked at Fan Kuai, who was a little overwhelmed, and smiled kindly, "Fan Kuai, I just made a mistake, don't blame me, don't blame me, just Pretend I didn’t say anything, nothing.”
Old Fan became Fan Kuai, which made Fan Kuai feel excited.
He is a gangster and has a temper, but he is not lacking in sophistication. He is a dog-meat seller and makes the famous young master in Peixian County fall into disgrace...
Thinking about it, Fan Kuai looked at Qian Wen who was about to bend down to pick up the gold cake that fell on the ground. Fan Kuai also saw Tian Cheng who was lying on the ground and staring at him fiercely, and other Qian family servants who were looking at him fiercely.
He hurriedly picked up the gold cake from the ground before Qian Wen, kneeled down in front of Qian Wen, held up the gold cake and said loudly, "Thanks to the young master for not giving up, Fan Kuai pays homage to the young master."
When Qian Wen saw this, the corners of his mouth rose.
