As a bandit who is not allowed by the law and lives a life of licking blood with the tip of a knife, he naturally has to understand the affairs of the world.
Rats have their own ways, and thieves have their own ways. Although they may seem lawless, they may not dare to do anything.
The ultimate goal of bandits in robbing homes is to survive and enjoy happiness, and they will never be as unscrupulous as a madman.
Robbery of auction proceeds from river mines is one of the taboos, and such things rarely happen.
First of all, there are endless troubles. Even if you can grab it, you may not be blessed to enjoy it.
Whether it is an official wanted order or a robbery from a fellow traveler, it is enough to make people unable to have a moment of peace.
Not to mention that such funds will be sent to each other by elite masters, and ordinary thieves cannot rely on them at all.
Sun Laowu had heard that teams like this escorting huge sums of money would be dispatched to explore the road ahead, and they would be followed by experts in front, left and right.
There are military sharpshooters in the team who have bows and arrows in hand at all times. Once a suspicious target approaches, they can shoot them directly.
After a thorough investigation, it was confirmed that they were not thieves, and the compensation was only ten taels of silver at most.
Ten taels of silver per life is really cheap.
When encountering such a vehicle passing by, it is best for ordinary people to stay away, otherwise it is easy to get into legal trouble.
Unless there is something wrong with such an unfunded business, the Black Wind Bandits will never touch it.
If there is even the slightest mistake, Heifeng Village will suffer disaster.
Now that he is a prisoner, he is even less likely to participate in this kind of thing. First of all, without this ability, it is also possible to implicate Lou Cheng.
Sun Laowu thought of this and said coldly to the man: "Shut up and leave here quickly, maybe you can save your life.
If you are a step too late and fall into the hands of this Immortal Mansion, I will discipline you to live but not to die!"
Sun Laowu's words were intended to scare the other party, and he also did not want to cause trouble for himself.
Now that you have an idea and plan to become a resident of Loucheng, you must make a clean break with the past.
Upon hearing Sun Laowu's threat, the man was stunned and subconsciously looked at the Loucheng soldiers not far away.
Just at this moment, the Loucheng soldier walked over, as if he had discovered his presence.
"If that's the case, then take care of yourself."
The man left a word and turned around and left without hesitation.
Sun Laowu sneered. He never thought about it and expected the other party to take action to save him.
Even if he really wants to escape, he can't count on this guy. His real purpose is to find out information about the Immortal Mansion.
If you get the information you want, how can you care about the life and death of the Black Wind Bandit?
Thinking secretly in his heart, Sun Laowu decided to report this matter to avoid Tang Zhen being caught off guard after the incident.
It should be noted that when such a big event happens, nearby forces will be affected, and Loucheng will certainly not be able to stay out of it.
After making up his mind, Sun Laowu immediately walked towards the soldiers in Loucheng and said that he had something important to report to Tang Zhen.
After hearing Sun Laowu's story, the soldier did not dare to be careless and quickly took out the walkie-talkie from his waist.
After saying a few simple words, he heard words from the other side, asking Sun Laowu to return to Loucheng immediately to report in detail.
Sun Laowu received permission and returned to Loucheng alone, and soon met Tang Zhen.
Sun Laowu was extremely respectful to the young city lord in front of him and did not dare to have the slightest bit of contempt or concealment.
Tang Zhen showed great bravery and single-handedly selected Heifeng Village, which made Sun Laowu frightened and admired in his heart.
The lives of the residents in Loucheng convinced Sun Laowu that Tang Zhen really wanted the residents to live a good life.
His status as a disciple of the immortal doubled Tang Zhen's worth, and he was born with a noble aura.
Due to multiple factors, Sun Laowu's loyalty is extremely high, not inferior to the existing die-hard residents.
After listening to Sun Laowu's story, Tang Zhen remained silent, obviously thinking.
Gu Yu
"What are you talking about about this river mine auction?"
Upon hearing Tang Zhen's inquiry, Sun Laowu quickly replied: "The auction of mountains, rivers and mines is a rule set by the emperor, and it will be auctioned every three years.
The imperial court contracted out mountains rich in minerals and rivers rich in water resources through auctions.
After the auction is successful, all the benefits generated during the period will belong to the contractor."
When Sun Laowu said this, he couldn't help but smacked his lips, and said with a very yearning expression: "It is said that the gold and silver obtained at each auction are piled up like a mountain, and it takes a long time to be transported before it can be loaded into the treasury.
The richest man in the world is our emperor, and his wealth is unmatched by anyone."
Tang Zhen shook his head slightly and said in a calm tone: "Such an auction method can indeed amass a large amount of money in a short period of time, but it will inevitably leave endless hidden dangers."
Sun Laowu nodded quickly and said that this was indeed the case, because the emperor's operation made the people of the world miserable.
Bandits are rampant in many places, and some people even rebel. Countries on the border are also watching with eager eyes, and frictions and confrontations never stop.
The dynasty was able to stand firm because it had an elite army, invested countless amounts of money, and was invincible in battle.
Sun Laowu was just the bandit leader and didn't know many things, but it was enough for Tang Zhen to understand the general trend of the world.
The world is not yet in chaos, but it is not far away.
"Since it is ill-gotten wealth, it should not be given to the emperor. It is better to keep it to help the poor people."
Tang Zhen suddenly spoke, but what he said shocked Sun Laowu.
"City Lord, do you want to..."
Tang Zhen nodded, looked at Sun Laowu and said, "I'm going to send you out to investigate and collect relevant information. I wonder if you can complete the task?"
Sun Laowu immediately nodded in agreement and patted his chest to express that there was no problem. If the city lord wanted this fortune, he would definitely do his best to help complete it.
It is better to fall into the hands of the city lord than to hand it over to the dog emperor.
"What you have to do is to figure out the specific time route, the specific information of the defenders, and the specific information of the actors.
Once the task is completed, I will allow your family to become residents of Loucheng and enjoy the same benefits as other residents."
Hearing Tang Zhen's promise, Sun Laowu was extremely excited and said that he would definitely complete the task.
Checking Sun Laowu's loyalty value, we found that it was almost reaching its peak, which was obviously related to the reward promised by Tang Zhen.
Such good residents must be given better protection.
"I have a skill jade card here. After breaking it into pieces, you can get the skill. It was originally a reward for completing the task, but now I will give you one in advance."
While Tang Zhen was speaking, he took out a skill jade token and gave it to Sun Laowu.
Sun Laowu was stunned. Looking at the skill jade token in his hand, he felt it was more valuable than a thousand taels of gold.
Without any hesitation, he broke the jade plaque into pieces on the spot.
A ball of cyan light appeared, wrapped around Sun Laowu's body, and transformed it at an extremely fast speed.
After a few breaths, the light disappeared without a trace, and Sun Laowu was completely transformed.
He has strong muscles and strong legs, exuding a powerful aura.
Sun Laowu had been training hard for many years, and he was already close to a third-rate warrior. Now the opportunity came, and he actually came into direct contact with the realm of a second-rate warrior.
Feeling the changes in his body, Sun Laowu was extremely excited and fell to his knees without hesitation.
This reward alone is enough for him to show his loyalty.
Tang Zhen's rewards were not limited to these. He also took out some technological equipment and taught Sun Laowu how to use them.
After mastering it proficiently, Sun Laowu said goodbye to Tang Zhen.
He first found his wife, told him to perform a secret mission, and then left Loucheng quietly.
