"My lord, this is unfair, my lord!"
"Sir, please let me out! I come from the future, maybe you are still my ancestor!"
Those time-travelers who were imprisoned in the prison were yelling and screaming all day long.
The prison guard knocked on the cell door several times with a waist knife: "If it hadn't been for the superior's orders, you guys would have been beaten to death and dragged out to feed the dogs! If you shout again, I will starve you for a few days! Let's see if you are still alive Shout with strength!”
"The Emperor! Brother, I want to see the Emperor!" A man hurriedly stretched out his hand from the cell door and grabbed the corner of the jailer's clothes. "Brother, sir, tell the Emperor that I am from the future! I know many things. , Li Zicheng is going to rebel!"
"You bastard! How brave!" The jailer was furious, "How can you see the Emperor whenever you want?"
"Brother, brother! I am also from the future. Please tell the emperor not to set up the East Factory! Otherwise Wei Zhongxian will usurp power!"
"I am the Ming God of War! Give me three thousand soldiers and horses, and I will wipe out the Tatars in five days!"
"Sanyang is an idiot!"
"???"
"Crazy, all crazy!"
"I want to see the emperor! I know the whereabouts of Zhu Yunwen!"
"I want to see the emperor! I am his long-lost son!"
"..."
"Treason! Palm!"
"Pah! Pah-pah—" Rhythmic claps sounded in the prison.
…
That night, Qiu Bu was very drunk and his eyes were blurry: "Didn't you say, take me to find gold? Let's... let's go!"
Lin Linyou was still awake and looked at Qiu Bu with cold eyes: "Go to sleep! When you fall asleep, you will have everything in your dreams!"
When he woke up the next day, Qiu Bu found that he was still naked, lying on the cold wooden floor, with a wine bowl covering his belly button.
He picked up the wine bowl doubtfully.
The fire next to him had long been extinguished. Thanks to his strong physical condition, otherwise he would have caught a cold wind all night. Even so, he was also very cold. He shivered and took the dried clothes and put them on. While glaring angrily at Lin Linyou, who was lying comfortably on the bed, wrapped in a thin silk quilt and still sleeping soundly.
"You thief! You made me drunk last night, so you won't let me go to bed! At least give me something to cover me with!"
"Didn't I cover it for you?" Lin Linyou faced inward without turning his head.
Qiu Bu looked at the wine bowl he had just thrown on the ground, leaned over, grabbed it again, and threw it on the bed.
One hand stretched out from the bed and firmly grabbed the flying wine bowl. Lin Linyou got up from the bed and stretched out comfortably. He opened his hand and the wine bowl fell to the ground.
"Let's go!" Lin Linyou put on his clothes and stood up, carrying a Yanling knife - he would use this Yanling knife when it was inconvenient to use the Xiuchun knife for what he wanted to do.
Speaking of which, he is also a double-sword style with a hidden sword within a sword.
"What are you going for? Get gold?" Qiu Bu immediately became excited and grabbed the horse-killing sword.
"Have breakfast." Lin Linyou was neatly dressed, opened the door, and took a deep breath of the fresh air of the early morning pasture, mixed with the fragrance of the light green grass after the rain and the sour taste of cow, sheep and horse dung.
The grass shed next to the house was leaky and leaky. Lin Linyou had let his horse rest in the stable a few days ago. Now he went to the stable to pick up his own horse, and another one, and threw it to the herdsmen who were watching the stable. For a few cents of money, he said, "I'll ride back in a minute."
Du Lifu had already told him that whatever he wanted to do, he could do it. Naturally, the herdsmen had nothing to say, let alone receiving the reward money.
The water in the Yangtze River is still very deep and fast, and the capital in the east cannot pass it.
Lin Linyou and Qiu Bubu each rode on their own, galloping towards the west. Blocked by Lion Mountain in the west, the terrain is high and has not been affected by floods, so the road along the way is flat and easy to walk.
In less than three-quarters of an hour, the two arrived at Jiangpu County.
Jiangpu County Government is only more than 20 miles away from the grassland.
Lin Linyou took Qiu Bubu and sat at the noodle shop opposite the county government office to eat noodles. Each person had a large bowl of water-smooth noodles, and each added three poached eggs as toppings.
"Are you really here for breakfast?" Qiu Bu pulled the noodles.
"Have you seen the pawn shop across the street?" Lin Lin opened his chopsticks and pointed one of them at the "Jushan Pawn Shop" next to the county government office. "After finishing the noodles, we will go to the inner room to get them."
On the pawnshop flags and lanterns, there is the word "Shen" written on them.
"Can there be gold in this?" Qiu Bu asked doubtfully, "Shouldn't we go to the bank next door?"
Lin Linyou smiled and said nothing, lowering his head to eat noodles.
Qiu Bu felt energetic and finished a large bowl of water-smooth noodles in a few mouthfuls.
Lin Linyou ate slowly and leisurely, glancing at the pawn shop from time to time.
It was early in the morning, the pawn shop had just opened, and there were only two clerks inside. One was sitting behind the counter, and the other was dusting off the dust with a feather duster. There were two other nurses sitting around. There were no guests.
Lin Linyou had always had the idea of robbing a bank. When he came to Daming, he always wanted to find an opportunity to see if he could realize it. However, those who can open a bank must have the strength and background, and most of the Ming Dynasty's banks were opened near the Yamen. If something happens, the soldiers from the Yamen will swarm in and surround the bank in a short time.
The most important thing is that there are many more nursing homes in the bank than in the pawnshops, and they are well-trained and not easy to mess with.
Therefore, it was not that easy to rob a bank in ancient times. There are also successful cases, but those are the cooperation between bandits and bank guards.
Lin Linyou had no choice but to practice his skills at a pawn shop first.
He finally put down his bowls and chopsticks, dropped a few pennies, and strode towards the pawn shop.
Qiu Bu couldn't catch up quickly.
"Guest, what do you want to buy?" The waiter behind the counter saw the business coming and stood up to greet him.
The Yanling knife was unsheathed and placed on the man's neck: "How much can I pawn this knife for?"
The waiter was also someone who had seen big scenes. After being startled, he regained his composure and said, "Guests, please keep it far away so that I can't see it and I can't estimate it!"
"Just look at it this way." Lin Linyou pressed the blade.
The waiter was convinced that the person in front of him had bad intentions, so he glanced at the waiter holding the feather duster. The waiter understood, dropped the feather duster and ran towards the door. Suddenly, a short knife flew towards him and "grabbed" it. On the pillar, the guy almost hit him head-on.
The two guards didn't see the look in the man's eyes, but they finally reacted in shock. They pulled out their sabers and were about to rush towards Lin Linyou. However, they were caught up by Qiu Bu behind them, and each scabbard knocked him to the ground. .
Qiu Bu seemed to have just come to his senses. He stepped on the nursing home and shouted angrily at Lin Linyou: "If you want to rob the pawn shop, you should say hello early!"
"Who said I was going to rob him? I am here to be the knife." Lin Linyou said, and continued to ask the man, "Now, can you see clearly?"
"Yes, yes..." Seeing that his escape route was blocked, the man replied with a sad face.
"How much can you take?"
"Twenty taels." The waiter bravely reported the number.
But Lin Linyou was obviously not satisfied with this number.
"Fifty taels..." The guy had to re-quote.
"Too little." Lin Linyou shook his head, "Although my sword is not a precious sword, it can blow hair and break hair, and it can kill people with blood."
"Is it considered a treasure if you see blood when you kill people?" The man pretended to be calm, "It's only when there is no blood..."
"So I said, my sword is not a precious sword." Lin Linyou said, "With a neck as thick as yours, a precious sword only needs one strike, but mine may require several strikes."
As he spoke, the force on the knife became a little stronger, and the man could already feel the chill on his neck.
"One hundred taels!"
"I don't have much time, hurry up, five thousand taels!"
Hearing this, the man was dumbfounded. Could this man in front of him be a lunatic? That’s right, who in the right mind would rob a pawn shop?
"What the customer doesn't know is that our pawnshop's daily deposit limit is only one thousand taels. Where can I get you five thousand taels?"
Isn’t this just a lie?
Lin Linyou had obviously done his homework beforehand, and said: "Mr. Shen's family has a big business. The pawn shop is next to the county government office. The flower bottles and treasures of the county government officials are all displayed in your pawn shop. How can you only have One thousand taels?"
The man immediately understood that the guy in front of him was not a simple robber, but an enemy of the family owner who was here to seek revenge.
"It's really only a thousand taels..." the guy said.
"How dare you lie to me?!" Lin Linyou said angrily, swinging his knife to strike.
"There is only one thousand taels of silver in cash!" the clerk shouted quickly, "the only money left is the banker's ticket! If a customer wants silver, he can only go to the bank next to him to redeem it... The small sentence is true, we are just a small pawnshop, and in one day How can I get into a big deal with a thousand taels inside? I can’t even finish the one thousand taels..."
