Their place is not a major traffic thoroughfare, and businessmen have always been on their way to transport goods, so how can they stay at will?
What's more, there is only one person.
"It's been a while!"
"I said I was coming in to ask for a bowl of water, and Brother Li happened to meet me and came in enthusiastically!"
"That man has a kind and kind smile on his face, and he looks like a happy and wealthy person."
Su Xiaoyue didn't know Zhang Bao's concerns.
He told everything he knew.
"There's a problem!"
"Why didn't Lao He and Hu Dugu stop them?"
Zhang Bao was a little angry.
From what Su Xiaoyue said, I felt more and more suspicious about this person.
If you enter the Wubao in such a grand manner, wouldn't you have seen all the secrets?
As he spoke, he quickly stood up and walked towards the village.
"Oh, sir, please slow down!"
"Brother Hu is arranging to dig a tunnel. Uncle He, didn't you ask him to go to the county government early in the morning to inquire about the news?"
"I haven't come back yet."
Su Xiaoyue said something while following behind.
When Zhang Bao came to the village.
I saw Li Daniu holding a large piece of silver in his hand, grinning widely, and being watched by a group of villagers.
From time to time, he would say a few words of flattery, which made Li Daniu laugh.
Zhang Bao was speechless.
This Li Daniu is really honest and honest.
If you don't give me some advice, you may still be able to help people pay for it if they are sold to you in the future.
"Master!"
"Young mistress!"
"Hello, Master!"
I saw Zhang Bao and Su Xiaoyue coming over.
Many villagers quickly said hello.
Now Zhang Bao's status in the village is unquestionable.
"hey-hey!"
"Master!"
"I just kindly gave a wealthy businessman a drink of water, took him around the village, and gave him such a large piece of silver."
"This all belongs to the young master!"
Li Daniu said as he prepared to hand over the money.
Zhang Bao almost laughed out loud when he saw Li Daniu's honest face.
"You come with me!"
Zhang Bao grimaced and walked towards his courtyard.
Li Daniu didn't understand how he made money for Zhang Bao. Zhang Bao still looked reluctant and didn't ask any more questions. He followed him obediently into Zhang Bao's yard.
According to Zhang Bao's request, he told the whole story of how he received the wealthy businessman before.
After listening.
Zhang Bao was even more convinced that this man was definitely not an ordinary wealthy businessman.
"Li Daniu!"
"If this person is someone with evil intentions, or even a spy who came in from the bandits, you will have done a great service for them this time!"
Zhang Bao snorted coldly.
Li Daniu listened to Zhang Bao's words.
Directly petrified.
How can your head turn around so many corners?
"No...can't?"
"I looked at this man with a kind face, and he was a good person at first glance!"
He said stammeringly.
"Then let me ask you, that man said he was thirsty and borrowed water, why did he stop drinking after just one sip?"
"And why did I let you take me around the Wubao for a long time?"
"And why did I give you so much money before I left?"
"Do you really think that a sip of water is worth so much money?"
Zhang Bao asked helplessly.
After hearing Zhang Bao's words, Li Daniu was dumbfounded.
When Li Daniu met the wealthy businessman before, he saw that the wealthy businessman praised everything in Wubao.
Li Daniu even attributed all the credit to Master Zhang Bao.
He even talked about the repelling of the bandits a few days ago.
I wish everyone knew about their young master's feats.
When I finally got that large sum of money, I didn't think much about it.
Thinking that because of his injured leg before, he didn't help Zhang Bao and the others to fight back the enemy.
Being able to earn these silver taels now can be considered as a contribution to the development of Wubao.
Feeling very proud of oneself.
But after hearing Zhang Bao's remarks, his enthusiasm fell to the bottom.
Li Daniu is not stupid either.
It's just that he is more honest and honest, and he is not wary of others, so he got the idea.
The more I think about what Zhang Bao said, the more sense it makes.
I couldn't help but feel chills running down my back, knowing that I was in big trouble this time.
I saw Li Daniu sweating.
Zhang Bao knew that Li Daniu had understood the clues.
It's hard to say too many harsh words.
He patted Li Daniu on the shoulder.
"Brother Li, I know you are warm and simple, but in this world, this simplicity will harm people!"
"If you harm yourself, if you really harm someone in this village, how would you deal with it?"
"If anything happens in the future, be more careful."
"Think about the bad beforehand. If it is really bad, you will be able to discover it in time. If it is good, wouldn't it be even more profitable?"
"Although the secret of this incident was leaked, Wubao is now complete in all aspects. Even if outsiders know about it, there is no danger, but you must be more careful in the future!"
Zhang Bao slowly said to Li Daniu.
I heard that Zhang Bao did not blame himself.
Li Daniu beat his chest with remorse, and after Zhang Bao comforted him, he walked out.
…
The person who entered Wubao was none other than the third leader of Erlong Mountain, Smiling Tiger.
After Erlongshan suffered such a big loss.
The one-eyed dragon was puzzled.
I always feel like there's something going on here that I haven't figured out yet.
If Lao Liu was in the village, now that the people in Qinglong Cave had retreated, there would be no news at all.
So he sent people to the county government to inquire.
Only then did I learn from the storyteller that all this was actually a plan by the county magistrate to fight against each other.
I guess Lao Liu has been killed long ago.
I couldn't help but regret it.
As for the county government, they were unable to conquer it.
But he was very angry about the Hejian village that was used by the county magistrate to lure the enemy.
He also heard that a Wubao was being built in Hejian Village, so he ordered Smiling Tiger to disguise himself as a wealthy businessman and go to the Wubao to find out what was going on.
Only after I went there did I understand.
It was actually the young master of the Zhang family who led everyone in the uprising.
Lao Liu has been killed!
He also heard that Wubao was heavily fortified and easy to defend but difficult to attack. So while annexing the rest of the hills and expanding his power, the One-Eyed Dragon secretly planned how to capture the people in this Hejian Village.
Avenge my eldest nephew Lao Liu!
Just attacking hard is not the answer.
You still need to find another way.
…
Lao He also brought back news from the county government.
With the horses this time, it was much easier to get to the county government. Even if there were some bandits on the road, Lao He could still get through with his skills.
After hearing the news brought back by Lao He.
Only then did everyone know.
It turned out that it was the county magistrate who fed them.
The reason why the two groups of bandits were fighting each other gradually became clear.
Although Zhang Bao was worried that the bandits would retaliate again, he was not too afraid considering that Wubao was already there.
I'm just worried about what happens after this storm passes.
What should I do if the county magistrate takes back the grain on a whim?
Or to put it another way, raising the poll tax in Hejian Village to fill the vacancies, what is the purpose of this?
The bandits can still be resisted by a fort, but the whole world is not the king's territory. Is it really possible to start a war with the government and the army with the help of a fort?
Even if I wanted to, I'm afraid those villagers would definitely not follow me.
Come to think of it, this government is as harsh as a tiger.
