Chapter 77 Bandit Leader Li Xiong
The house is very crudely built, but there are a few bandits guarding the door: "Please tell the leader, Wu Jie, Wu Jie has something important to report."
"Well, I'll go right away, please wait a moment." The bandit guarding the door also knew Wu Jie. When he saw Wu Jie coming, he said something and walked in.
After a while, he came out again and said: "The leader invites you."
Wu Jie nodded to the bandit and walked in.
This living room is very simple, with only a few desks and a few oil lamps.
A man in his thirties was sitting there in the hall.
This man was not a tall man, but his cold aura made Wu Jie feel chilly when he came in.
This person is the leader of the Yushan bandits, Li Xiong.
"Why did you come to see me?" Li Xiong just glanced at Wu Jie and asked casually.
The two have always cooperated. Wu Jie is from the village and can easily disguise himself, so he often helps Li Xiong to find out information. After receiving the information, Li Xiong sends troops to plunder, and then distributes some benefits to Wu Jie. Every time Wu Jie comes, he basically
It was for them to find prey.
"Report to the leader, today we encountered a prey, about a thousand guards, dozens of vehicles, thirty of which contained grain." Wu Jie then explained what happened in detail.
"Are you kidding me? There are about a thousand guards? I don't think this caravan is like a prey." After hearing this, Li Xiong frowned and said displeased.
"I'm just telling you the news. There is endless food in the car. This is what I saw with my own eyes. Whether you grab it or not is not a villain's concern." Wu Jie chose to eat the bowl of rice.
, I think he is not a timid person. When he saw Li Xiong being unhappy, he did not feel afraid because of it, but said calmly.
"Could it be a well-prepared army?" Li Xiong glanced at Wu Jie coldly after hearing this, and then asked.
"Chief, don't you think about it, what other troops from the surrounding area can come to our place now? If there are any, they are just the remnants of Yuan Shu's defeated army. What other decent troops can there be? What's more, what reason do they have to deal with us?
These bandits? Could it be that they are interested in Yushan and want to occupy your mountain stronghold?" Wu Jie replied calmly.
What Wu Jie said is true. Who among the princes from all over the world has the thought to take care of this desolate Shouchun, let alone their broken mountains. Thinking about it, it is extremely ridiculous.
Although Wu Jie's words were unpleasant, they were reasonable, and the displeasure on Li Xiong's face suddenly disappeared.
Moreover, if that batch of grain and grass is real, it will be enough to solve their food problem in the next few years, which is indeed very tempting to him.
"When will they leave?" Li Xiong asked coldly.
"Report to the leader, they will leave tomorrow." Seeing this, Wu Jie naturally knew that Li Xiong had made a decision and was ready to plunder.
"Hmph, you think you can pass by my place safely with a thousand guards. What a bunch of fools." Li Xiong said with a sneer, a cunning and cold look in his eyes.
"The leader is wise." Wu Jie also smiled. If this deal is successful, he will naturally benefit a lot.
Now that the purpose of coming here was achieved, Wu Jie left Yushan and returned to Wujiacun without staying long.
At this moment, Wu Niu, who was staying in the village while Wu Jie was staying, also received Liu Gui in his yard.
Although it is a farmer's house, Wu Niu's home still has a living room, but it is a little small. The floor is made of wooden boards and there are three shabby tables.
At this moment, Wu Niu was sitting on the main seat, and Liu Gui was sitting on Wu Niu's right hand side.
"My father has already told me the reason for your visit, sir. It's okay to need manpower, but..." At this point, Wu Niu hesitated for a moment, wanting to attract Liu Gui's attention, but glanced at Liu Gui.
Gui, found that Liu Gui's expression was extremely dull, and his face couldn't help but trembled, and he said: "However, sir, you also know that there is a group of bandits lurking nearby. If we help you transport the goods, the risk will be very high. The price is not cheap.
.”
"I'll pay you fifty gold." Liu Gui said calmly without changing his expression.
"Fifty gold?" Wu Niu was shocked when he heard this, and a surge of greed surged in his heart, but then he wondered if he had heard it wrong, so he couldn't help but wonder.
He colluded with Li Xiong, Wu Jie and others, and the annual distribution was not even ten gold. Now only he and Liu Gui were present, Liu Gui gave fifty gold, and he hid twenty-five gold without anyone noticing.
"Yes, fifty gold." Liu Gui replied firmly.
Wu Niu could hardly suppress the greed in his heart when he heard this. He nodded repeatedly and said: "Okay, tomorrow will be tomorrow."
"Haha, there are ten pieces of gold here. It's a deposit. Please lead me to wait outside the camp tomorrow." Liu Gui chuckled, took off the money bag from his waist, and poured it all on the case.
A burst of golden light flashed, and ten golden cakes fell with a clatter.
"Sir, please don't worry. I, Wu Niu, always talk with ease. This matter will definitely be done, it will definitely be done." Wu Niu took a deep breath with greed in his eyes, and said with a smile on his face.
Liu Gui snorted coldly in his heart when he saw this. The price he paid now must be repaid ten times or a hundred times. But on his face, he raised his fists gently and smiled. "So, I'll just thank you here. It's nothing."
I will take the first step."
After finishing speaking, Liu Gui stood up.
"Haha, sir, you are so polite. I'll see you off, sir." Facing Liu Gui, a rich man, Wu Niu forcibly took his eyes back from the pile of gold and said with a smile.
Immediately, the two of them left Wu Niu's house one after another. After saying goodbye in front of the door, Liu Gui rode back to the camp stationed near Wu Niu's house.
After Liu Gui left, Wu Niu stopped in front of the door for a moment. Then he returned to the house and looked at the small pile of gold left by Liu Gui on the table. The golden light dazzled him.
Wu Niu suppressed the excitement in his heart and divided the ten pieces of gold into two parts. He hid one part under his desk. The other part was carefully put into the money bag and prepared to be handed over to Wu Jie. He had been in contact with Wu Jie all the year round.
Naturally, Niu knew that Wu Jie was not an easy person to fool.
Wu Niu squinted his eyes as he held the money bag in his hand, feeling secretly proud in his heart. You go ahead and rob it. After you rob them all, you have to give me a share. Then I will be rich, haha.
Just at this moment, there was a knock on the door suddenly.
Wu Newton was suddenly excited. Knowing that Wu Jie might be back, he kicked the gold into his arms and immediately went out to greet him.
