Chapter 8 Baodu Village

After a while, Mr. Lu’s servants indeed presented several furs of various colors. Song Xiance turned over and over, but he couldn’t tell whether it was good or bad. He thought about it and thought: There must be nothing defective in Mr. Lu’s hands.

, all you need to do is brag a bit, and you can make up for it!

Song Xiance felt at ease and was about to talk nonsense, but he didn't expect that Xiao Qinhu suddenly stood up and reached out to grab the fur.

I only heard Xiao Qinhu say: "The quality of the fur depends on the type first. Mink is the best, followed by fox, and the rest are just inferior."

"After the variety is established, let's look at the size. Mink fur should be no shorter than three feet, and fox fur should be no shorter than three feet and four inches."

"Secondly, look at the color, white is the best, the rest are inferior, and mottled is the worst! Mink is second, black, and fox, red."

"Finally, check whether it is intact or not. There are no wounds, no scars, no insect eyes. Damage is the best. If there are flaws, regardless of color and appearance, they are all inferior. The rest of the tiger and leopard species are a different matter because they are rare!

"

It turns out that Xiao Qinhu was originally a hunter. After hunting, he often sold it. Over time, he was tricked more, and he became a good doctor.

Mr. Lu was not a merchant at all, he only knew a little bit about it. He couldn't help but applaud when he heard this, saying that these three people were serious merchants.

Mr. Lu quickly apologized and said: "I am old and blind, and I didn't recognize the three of you. It's just that this is a serious matter, so you should be careful. Please don't take offense, three of you!"

Song Xiance almost capsized in the gutter. How could he be on good terms with him? He just said with a straight face: "It depends on Mr. Lu's sincerity!"

Mr. Lu Sanye has been receiving all kinds of merchants all year round, and his face has long been as strong as a copper wall. But since he was wrong, he had to admit it.

He smiled and said: "This is easy to talk about. Don't you just want to buy some gold? As long as the three of you have the courage, I will tell you!"

"Oh!" Song Xiance laughed when he heard this, "We are also people who travel all over the country. If we were timid, we would have gone home and farmed long ago. Why do we bother to do such a business?"

"Okay!" Mr. Lu stood up and said, "They are indeed three heroes. To tell you the truth, this man who mines and sells gold is not easy to deal with. Even I have to give him three points!"

"This man's surname is Chen Taojin. He was originally a wealthy man in the nearby Qingshan Village. He was idle and unruly. When his parents died at home, he lost all his family property and spent his days hanging out with ruffians. Unexpectedly, it was the right time for this man to make a fortune.

, he seized this gold mine from others, gathered two to three hundred people, and mined it day and night, with an annual output of three to five hundred gold."

"It's just that this matter is a beheading business. He was afraid that the government would come to suppress him, so he built a camp on the mountain behind the Fire Temple in Qingshan Village for shelter. The name of this mountain is Baochu Mountain, and the name of this camp is

Baodu Village is named Baocuo because the older generation said that a shepherd boy ate Ganoderma lucidum grass in this mountain and flew to heaven with a calf in his arms."

"This Baodu Village stands on the top of Baocheng Mountain, surrounded by hundreds of feet of cliffs. The south gate stands thousands of feet high, and birds cannot cross it; the west gate has two peaks facing each other, and there is a narrow valley only three feet wide rising up; the right side of the east gate

There is a "broken mountain trench", which is a place where "one man can guard the gate and ten thousand men cannot open it"."

"There are springs on this mountain that never run dry in winter and summer, and there are dense forests that can cover the sun. After Chen Taojin occupied this place, he sent men and women to guard it day and night, equipped with spears, bows and crossbows. It is a place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and it is also difficult to fly with wings.

Place."

"If the three of you are brave, you can take my letter and go to Baodu Village. You will definitely be able to buy what you want. However, this person is cunning and greedy for money, so you'd better be careful!"

"If you want to buy some mountain products and furs, I have everything in this nearby store. However, it is neither the first nor the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, and there is no market, so the prices will be a little higher!"

Song Xiance was overjoyed when he heard this and said: "I am very grateful for this. Even if Mr. Lu's shop is in his family, we should support it. But we are impressed by Mr. Lu's character. Even if it is a little more expensive, we will avoid being deceived."

The danger!"

Mr. Lu was so flattered by Song Xiance that he almost lost his smile. He waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Where, where! Open for business, shop around. I'm just reminding you, don't take it like this! However, if you say it is reliable,

, you can buy whatever you want in my store, if there is any fraud or deception, just come to me!"

After a polite exchange between the two parties, Mr. Lu wrote a letter and handed it to Song Xiance and the other three. The three of them also realized what was going on and hurriedly said goodbye. They went to the store in front of him and bought a lot of furs and mountain products before leaving.

The three of them were far away, and Song Xiance opened the letter written by Mr. Lu to Chen Taojin, then he put his hands on his hands and said with a smile: "It's really hard to find a place after wearing iron shoes, and it took no effort to get it. We originally wanted to find out something."

I'm looking for news about Baodu Village, but I got such an unexpected surprise. In this way, I have a plan in mind, please give me the details!"

When Xiao Qinhu and Zhang Dudu heard this, they couldn't help but cheered, so they followed Song Xiance's advice and prepared to plot the Baodu Village.

It is said that Chen Taojin released the news that Liu Yinggui had been arrested. After waiting for three or two days without seeing any movement, he felt confused.

He then ordered people to bring Liu Yinggui out and asked: "What is your official position and where is your family? Could it be that you are greedy and afraid of death, so you deceived me?"

How did Liu Yinggui, a stupid boy, make up the story? He had to move all Zhang Shenyan's affairs and put it on the head of an unreasonable master. He just said: "My master's real name is Zhang, and he is the right minister of the imperial court's criminal department. He is responsible for the names of criminals in the world! It's like you.

I don’t know how many people have been killed by people who kill people and set fires like this."

"Because I am now old and thinking about my ancestors returning home in rich clothes, I want to send my son back to his hometown and buy property."

Chen Taojin was also an uneducated master. Hearing this, he scratched his head and asked, "Have you ever heard from the elders in the village that any wealthy family with the surname Zhang in our villages and towns have made a fortune?"

Everyone shook their heads when they heard this, and some even said: "This gentleman is already in his seventies or eighty years old. It is estimated that he left home when his grandfather left home. We are only in our twenties and thirties. How could we know?"

When Chen Taojin heard this, he agreed and was about to order someone to take Liu Yinggui down. Suddenly he saw a boy running over, panting and reporting: "Shopkeeper, a group of people came down the mountain, claiming to be Lu San

I sent it here because I want to trade gold."

Chen Taojin was shocked when he heard this and thought: How could it be such a coincidence? He quickly asked: "How many people came, and is there anything weird about it?"

"That's not the case," the boy responded, "but there was one incident. He claimed that the shopkeeper had caused trouble. Fortunately, he saw the injustice on the road and eliminated it for us."
