Chapter 132 The Bandits' Confidence

"Thank you, brother!"

The little boss respectfully picked up the small sign and walked away with a smile on his face.

Although they are all bandits, the Iron Can Mountain bandits are not only larger in scale than the original Maomao Mountain bandits, they are also more organized.

The Maomaoshan bandits are a group of outlaws. They don't care about tomorrow after today. There are no women in the village, and there isn't much food in stock.

When I ran out of food and wanted a woman, I went down the mountain to grab her.

When he lifted his pants, he killed the woman he had snatched, because raising a woman also costs food.

But the Tiegun Mountain bandits are different. Their main business is harvesting grain, and they cannot rob women at will. Therefore, they usually buy some women who cannot get married privately, force them to take sterilizing drugs, and then raise them in captivity in the mountains. If

When a bandit performs meritorious service, the boss will treat these women as objects and reward one or two of them to his subordinates.

Of course, this reward is not given to the bandits who have made meritorious services, but like the little boss, it is "lent" to him for a period of time, and when the time is up, it still has to be returned.

This can also be regarded as a method used by bandits to win over people's hearts.

When the little boss left, the second boss once again clasped his fists and asked for help: "Brother, I am willing..."

As a result, he was interrupted by the boss as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Forget it if others are making fun of you, you will also follow suit!"

There were no outsiders present, so the head of the family stopped calling his second brother and said with a cold face: "Have you forgotten Master Zhou's instructions?"

Hearing the words Master Zhou, the second master subconsciously shrank his neck.

As the second-in-command, he knew very well that the current scale and strength of Iron Can Mountain was all because of Master Zhou.

Although Iron Can Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is not invulnerable.

Before they occupied Tiegun Mountain, there was also a powerful group of bandits here. For some reason, they offended the county magistrate at that time. The county magistrate directly set up the army camp at the foot of Tiegun Mountain for two and a half years and forcibly captured the bandits.

They all starved to death on the mountain.

But with Master Zhou, every time the soldiers came to Iron Can Mountain, they would just show off and leave with just a few shouts.

When you return to the county government, you can also ask the common people to collect military expenses for suppressing bandits.

This is how the two parties have cooperated over the years, and Mr. Zhou is the link and bridge.

Last time he and Liu Jiang went to the county government to meet Master Zhou. Master Zhou asked them to take action against Jin Feng, but repeatedly told them not to hurt Jin Feng.

"Shuanzi is the envoy we sent there. If this bastard Jin Feng hits him, he is slapping all our brothers in Iron Can Mountain in the face! But we can't do anything to him. This is too frustrating!"

The second master asked depressedly: "Brother, isn't this boy named Jin Feng just a mountain man? Does a big man like Master Zhou need to be so careful when dealing with him?"

"What do you know? The relationship between Jin Feng and Qing Huai is very unusual."

The big boss said: "Qing Huai once stayed at his house for many days, and even took him to the battlefield. When he came back, he sent his own bodyguard to escort him back. He obviously valued Jin Feng very much."

"That Lord Qing from Qingfeng Courtyard?"

The second master asked in surprise.

The headmaster nodded: "Besides him, who else in Jinchuan County can make Master Zhou so afraid?"

"Brother, Lord Qing is a Marquis of Wu who was born as a military general. I heard that he has thousands of soldiers under his command!"

The second master looked worried and asked: "Since this kid has something to do with Lord Qing, why would Master Zhou ask us to provoke him? Isn't it because he is dissatisfied with us and wants us to die?"

"what are you thinking?"

The headmaster said: "Although Jinchuan is Qinghuai's fiefdom, Qinghuai cannot gather sergeants here, otherwise it will be a rebellion. Moreover, his mind is on fighting, he rarely participates in county government affairs, and he has no influence in the county government.

Master Zhou said that it is normal for factions to fight in the officialdom. We are Master Zhou's subordinates, and Jin Feng is Qinghuai's subordinate. Our threatening Jin Feng can be regarded as a secret fight between the two factions in the officialdom.

As long as we don't hurt Jin Feng's life, Qinghuai can't do anything to Master Zhou, nor can he cause trouble for us. This is a common unspoken rule in officialdom."

"All generals have bad tempers. What if Qinghuai ignores this and attacks us directly?"

The second boss is still a little worried.

"Then he just can't afford to flip the table. No one will want to play with him in the future, and he won't have to hang out in the officialdom. Master Zhou said that Qinghuai is a very cautious person and will never make such a low-level mistake.

Besides, besides obeying Master Zhou’s orders, is there any other way for us to do this?”

When the second master heard this, he lowered his head and sighed.

"Don't worry, Master Zhou still relies on us to make money for him. He won't give up on us easily."

The first master patted the second master on the shoulder and comforted him: "Let's think of a way to force Jin Feng to hand over the spinning wheel."

In front of the mountain people, they were the feared leader and second leader of the bandits, but in Master Zhou's eyes, they were just tools to make money.

In fact, this is where their confidence lies.

In their view, the amount of money offered to Master Zhou every year was a large sum of money, and Master Zhou would definitely not abandon them.

But they don't know that once Mr. Zhou gets the spinning wheel, he will immediately go to Bianjing Zhou family. Who will care about their life and death?

The reason why the bandits were not allowed to hurt Jin Feng was because Master Zhou knew that Qing Huai was from the Qing government and was afraid of killing Jin Feng. Qing Huai fought with him to death.

Because in the unspoken rules of officialdom, it is okay to fight for power, but not to kill people. This is the bottom line that everyone must abide by.

Otherwise, everyone will train a group of assassins, and whoever loses will kill the opponent, and everyone will stop playing.

If he only takes away the spinning wheel, the Zhou family in Bianjing will definitely protect him because of the benefits brought by the spinning wheel, otherwise no one will work for the Zhou family in the future.

But after killing Jin Feng, the nature changed.

Even if it is just a show, Qinghuai will fight back crazily, otherwise no one will be willing to follow Qinghuai in the future.

At that time, it would be useless even if he hugged the Zhou family's lap in Bianjing. The Zhou family would not be able to find a reason to speak for him.

In fact, if Master Zhou knew about the battle between Jin Feng and Qing Huai in Qingshui Valley, or knew that Qing Mulan was also in Xihe Bay, he probably wouldn't take action.

It's a pity that communication in this era is too backward, and he is just a master in a remote corner. He is also restricted by Zhou Changlin and has no idea about this.

Master Zhou didn't know, and the bandits from Iron Can Mountain didn't know either.

If the negotiation fails, the first boss and the second boss can only think of other solutions.

"Let the warehouse prepare one hundred catties of bacon, one thousand catties of rice, and ten feet of fine cloth."

The boss said: "Didn't that guy Jin Feng say that we are not sincere? Then let's show him our sincerity!"

"What if this kid doesn't know how to advance or retreat?" the second master asked.

"Then we can only give him some colors to see."

"But didn't Master Zhou say you can't touch him?"

"There are many ways to deal with a person, you don't have to touch him!"

A fierce light flashed in the headmaster's eyes.
