When Old Man Hui and the others heard this, they were no longer suspicious. Knowing that they were traveling together, one of them, a wretched man in his forties, also deliberately choked: "You two don't look alike. People should not be judged by their appearance. We are all in this business." It’s an ancestral craft, tell me, where is the big tomb?”
"It's still early to say this. You have to meet our boss." Fang Yuhai bowed his hands: "But we made it clear before we formed the partnership. This time there is a risk. There is also a group of people from the other party who are eyeing the big tomb. We need to have a fierce fight. Secondly, this area has been very tense recently. I don’t know why the rebels are patrolling the surrounding area so strictly. We still have to get past them."
"Hey, this doesn't matter. Who in our industry has ever thought about what a good death is like? We even dare to rob the dead and we are afraid of the living. As long as there is money to make, you are really willing to pay a hundred taels. Are you hiring us with money?"
Tao Yundong smiled: "The living are much scarier than the dead, but since you are willing to do it, the money is indispensable. I have already paid the deposit and will pay another fifty taels when we get to the field. I will make up the forty taels after the completion!"
The eyes of the group of tomb robbers lit up. To be honest, not all tomb robbers can make a lot of money. Firstly, there are too many tomb robbers these days, but only a few can get the big tomb. The rest are just for soup. Picking up a leak may not fetch a good price, so I heard someone here offered a hundred taels of silver. A hundred taels of silver, on average, one person can divide it into ten taels. Do you know what it means these days? A family of five people can get one tael. Year’s expenses!
"Wait a minute, we have just discussed this matter and have a small request." Old Man Hui said: "We only need fifty taels of silver, how about half of the treasure in the tomb?"
Fang Yuhai frowned: "You must have changed your hexagram too quickly."
Old man Hui smiled and looked at Tao Yundong without saying a word.
Tao Yundong was very indifferent: "It's fair. They put in people and put in effort. Besides, the number of treasures in the tomb is still only 50 to 50. Let's just try our luck."
"In that case, let's leave quickly. Where are your leaders? Let's meet first. If you want to leave, leave before dawn. Those soldiers who are doing something lately are wandering around. If they bump into them, it will be troublesome. " Old man Hui said to Tao Yundong: "You said there might be a fight. You have guys and so on. We can't let us fight with others with our bare hands."
"The horses and guys are all ready, let's send out the men!" Tao Yundong said, taking the lead in leaving the yard, looking around, and then ran towards Wulong Mountain in the east.
We even prepared horses, that’s great, even if we encounter soldiers interrogating us, we can run away without fear of them catching up...
Chang Yu and the five men unexpectedly killed the thief who wanted to drink. After forcing the incision, they took away all the weapons and horses. Then they rode straight to the foot of the east slope of Wulong Mountain. After blowing a whistle, Wang Fuchen and Wu Mushan came out of the bushes. After getting out, during this period of time, the two of them also made a trace of entering the mountain a hundred meters away. If the officers and soldiers came after them, they would think that they had fled into the mountain.
Where is Lao Lu? Chang Yu asked, and as soon as he finished his words, Lu Dahu responded not far away: "Come on, come on." He was running over with a raft behind him. The big rake was seriously injured, and it would be easy to tear open the wound while riding a horse. Continuous blood loss would be life-threatening, so he made a raft to be dragged by war horses. There was no rope at hand, so Lu Dahu made a raft out of bark and rattan, which was about five or six meters long.
"Let's go!" Chang Yu shouted, and everyone started riding around from the foot of the mountain toward the west slope.
"What if Tao Yundong and the others can't find anyone?" Kuang Ren looked a little worried, Chang Yu said in a deep voice: "It's best to find someone. If we can't find someone, we have to leave immediately and force our way out. This place will leave us in more danger." Just increase it by 10%."
Fortunately, Tao Yundong did not disappoint him. Not only did he find one person, he also found nine, but more than half of them were old and weak. If they really fought, they wouldn't be able to do anything. Fortunately, Chang Yu didn't expect them to come to fight, and they were just trying to kill people. Just come to paralyze the bandits for interrogation.
Without lighting a fire under the starlight, Old Man Hui and the others vaguely glanced at the leader who turned out to be a young man. They were very confused, but they didn't think much about it since they thought that age was not the key to success in this business. They were more concerned about their own interests. Don't forget that Tao Yundong called Chang Yu the shopkeeper and they also called him: "Shopkeeper, where is the big tomb?"
"Beside the Weishui River," Chang Yu said casually. Old Hui and the others couldn't help but whisper: "It's so far away. It's hundreds of miles away. Then why did you come so far here..."
"I'm looking for some brothers." Chang Yu pointed at Chen Ruxin and the others casually: "If you have a big deal, naturally you have to find an old guy to work with." He said to Old Man Hui and the others: "The ugly words are ahead. If you want to go, we will We need to be of one mind and not engage in shady activities to avoid endless grudges, and it is difficult to have peace along the way. We have to stick together when encountering trouble."
"That's natural!" Old Man Hui nodded quickly: "We are here to make money. Since we want to make a fortune together, of course we have to stick together. But according to the fifty taels of silver mentioned earlier, how about half and half of the goods? Or you can pay the price at that time. You can also give us discounted silver."
"That's no problem." Chang Yu directly threw the money bag over: "I'll pay you the fifty-two pieces here, more or less, first. When we get to the field, I hope you will work hard. If something good comes out, it's not impossible to double it!"
Good guy, Old Man Hui and his gang were immediately stunned by his generosity. They nodded with ecstasy in their hearts and listened to the shopkeeper: "Please ask me more about the origin of that big tomb."
"The origin is unknown at the moment, but it is definitely the tomb of the Song Dynasty. This is not the place to talk. Let's hurry on our way now. If we have anything to say, we'll talk about it on the way." Chang Yu joked casually, and several people around him suppressed laughter, watching him fool around.
All the civil and military officials in the dynasty could be deceived by him, not to mention these peasants. He could do it with just one move and use money to hit them.
When I go out, I don’t feel anxious when there is food in the warehouse, so Chang Yu and his party did bring a lot of money with them on this trip. In addition to daily expenses, money is of great use, including inquiring about information, and even saving lives at critical moments. Although it is not It is omnipotent, but it is also capable of nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine things!
Money can make ghosts push the mills, and even more so those who are not afraid of ghosts.
After spending some money with some words that seemed to be true or false, the group of local masters each picked up their belongings, got on their horses and ran southward with Chang Yu. Of course, they lit fires and started running openly.
The Wei River is in the south, and Chang Yu is to the west of Wulong Mountain at this time, so he has to go around Jinsu Mountain and go south. In that case, he has to pass by Pucheng. It is another heart-pounding feeling under the lamp in the dark, and it is quite exciting. Tooth extraction in the middle of the night.
Everyone held up torches and ran all the way. When they arrived at the foot of Jinsu Mountain and were about to escape, they saw fire approaching from the due west direction, that is, the direction of Pucheng. It was estimated that there were more than ten riders, and several fire lights also came from the due north direction. Various sizes.
Old Man Hui and his group were a little panicked: "What should we do if we encounter the Dashun Army?"
"Don't panic, we are not robbing our homes and it's not because the officers and soldiers are afraid of what they will do. All we have to do is listen to the shopkeeper." Kuang Ren shouted in a low voice. Several people nodded in agreement. Chang Yu looked around and then asked Wu Mushan and Lu Dahu to Protecting the big rake, he took advantage of the darkness to avoid it first. After all, pulling a wounded person on a raft would be too suspicious. Then he took the initiative to ride his horse towards the Zhengdong group. After more than ten steps, he repeated his old trick and shouted preemptively: "The king of heaven covers the tiger of the earth. slogan".
The other party immediately shouted: "Da Shun is mighty" and everyone felt relieved.
Wang Fuchen shouted: "Under our command, General Houyingzhi, the Crouching Mountain military camp was attacked by enemy spies just now. Five of them are known to have fled again. Have you ever encountered them?"
"We just learned that we are searching everywhere," the other party replied. Wang Fuchen hummed, and then cursed: "I ran around for a long time and didn't see any ghosts. I guess they have gone into the mountains."
"Nine times out of ten, the only way to be safe is to hide in the mountains at this time." The other party started talking nonstop. It is estimated that he was full of resentment in his heart when he came out to hunt in the middle of the night: "It's so dark that we can't To enter the mountain, you still have to wait for dawn..."
"Okay, stop complaining. It's not good to be heard by the superiors. Let's walk around for a while and wait until dawn." Wang Fuchen said, riding horses and leading the team south. The group also left immediately to meet the lights from the north. went.
