I don’t know if it’s true or not, or maybe I’m worried that Nagahiko will kill people and seize the treasure. Hijikata deliberately mentioned to Nagahiko that he would pay after the escort mission is completed, because he doesn’t have enough silver on him now. He can only wait until he reaches his destination.

Only after receiving the land can he pay the reward to Chang Yan.

Nagahiko didn't care about this. It didn't matter whether he paid early or late. The money couldn't escape anyway.

Soon, under the escort of Nagahiko, Hijikata and his group continued to move forward.

It takes about half a month to reach Biting Village from here.

Along the way, although there were attacks by bandits or other low-level ninjas, they were weak, and Chang Yan didn't even need to take action. The group of warriors alone were able to eliminate all these low-level people.

This involuntarily made the samurai who were closer to Hijikata a little aggrieved. If their journey was extremely dangerous and they needed Nagahiko to help them fight their way out, then that would be fine.

Now the road is calm, and if there are some obstacles occasionally, Nagahiko doesn't need to take action. Hijikata spends money to recruit an ancestor to support him, but the latter doesn't do anything. Not only does he want a generous reward, but he also eats and drinks from them.

They used theirs, which made them, the samurai who received lower remuneration, feel dissatisfied.

But the samurai had seen Nagahiko's skills before and knew how powerful he was. Even if they were dissatisfied, they could only keep it in their stomachs. In this way, when dealing with Nagahiko, they would at best speak in a weird way, but not

Dare to offend more.

Now, it is already the seventh day that Nagahiko has been escorting Hijikata. Now they are halfway through the journey. If they continue at this speed, they will reach their destination, Bone-piercing Village, in less than seven days.

Unlike the samurai, Hijikata was a wealthy businessman. Several million silver taels were indeed a sky-high price for the samurai, but for Hijikata it was within an acceptable range.

He had no intention of defaulting on the debt, and spent the money as buying peace. Therefore, he would not have a sad face every day, and he often chatted with Nagahiko Sahi and others on weekdays.

Hijikata had no other intentions, he simply wanted to chat with them and exchange information. Business opportunities were often discovered inadvertently.

In this way, Nagahiko is also very familiar with Hijikata.

Through Hijikata, he knew why Kirigakure's ninjas came to assassinate him this time.

Hijikata has recently started a new project, and this new project has just blocked the financial path of another wealthy businessman in the Kingdom of Water. With Hijikata working on it, the other party will be greatly restricted.

And that wealthy businessman was a ruthless person with extremely extreme thoughts. He often did things at all costs. When doing this, Hijikata also knew that the latter would make a crazy counterattack, but he didn't expect that he would just run away.

The hidden village hired ninjas to attack them...

...

"Where is Mr. Hijikata? Why don't you see anyone else?" In the camp, a female warrior with delicate appearance and curvy figure had something important to discuss with Hijikata and was looking around for Hijikata's location.

"No, I'm chatting with those bandits over there." The male warrior curled his lips, pointed in the direction of Chang Yan, and said with dissatisfaction.

"What on earth are you thinking, Mr. Hijikata! What can you say to a robber like this?" The female warrior snorted, puffed up her cheeks in dissatisfaction, and said to herself: "If it hadn't been for Hijikata this time,

The husband has arranged other tasks for the senior brother. If the senior brother can accompany us to escort Mr. Hijikata, there will be no chance for those bandits to take advantage of the situation."

The male warrior also nodded, but sighed: "That's what I said, but it's a pity that the senior brother is not here. So I gave them a chance."

The female samurai glared at the male samurai, who quickly shut up. Then the female samurai walked towards the area where Nagahiko was and shouted to Mr. Hijikata: "Mr. Hijikata, why are you talking to these bandits here again?

.”

"Huamanji, please be careful with your words. These people (Nagahiko and others did not reveal their names) are our guards, not bandits." Hijikata said with a hint of blame.

...

Time flies by quickly, and another seven days pass quickly.

During these seven days, Hijikata and his party had a smooth journey and still encountered no danger.

This made the already dissatisfied warriors even more angry, but fortunately, the dissatisfaction gradually disappeared when they remembered that they would soon be separated from Nagahiko.

Out of sight!

Hijikata didn't take it seriously. During the few chats with Nagahiko during these days, he discovered several business opportunities. He already had a rough idea and could try to develop it in the future.

Now, Nagahiko has escorted Hijikata back to Biting Village.

After arriving at Hijikata's mansion, the latter ordered the guards to take out Nagahiko's reward this time.

Chang Yan quickly accepted the reward and glanced at the nearest man.

This man was handsome, although he was a little less handsome than me, but he was still one of the best.

He has short black hair, is tall, and has a strong build. He is the senior brother Blue Shark that the previous "Hua Man Ji" always talked about.

While Chang Yan was sizing him up, he was also sizing up Chang Yan. But maybe Hua Manji instilled her negative emotions into this senior brother, so he didn't give Chang Yan a good look.

"Since the escort has been completed and the money has been received, please leave." Blue Shark glanced at Chang Yan and Sha Xi lightly and spoke calmly. Chang Yan knew that he was chasing people away.

Chang Yan glanced at him but didn't pay much attention.

Instead, he said to Hijikata on the other side: "Mr. Hijikata, according to my guess, with the character of that wealthy businessman, he will probably not give up easily after this defeat. If you don't mind, we can continue to protect you here."

.Of course, you need to pay a small amount of money, only one million silver taels per month."

Huamanji puffed up her cheeks in dissatisfaction, and Blue Shark frowned and said directly: "No need."

Nagahiko ignored the blue shark and continued to look at Hijikata behind him.

Hijikata also shook his head. Although he was rich and not a miser, he was not a nouveau riche. He earned his money piece by piece, so when he spent money, he could spend it, but it depends on the value.

From Hijikata's current point of view, there would be no problem if he returned to the mansion and was protected by so many samurai. So there was no need to spend such unjust money.

"Thank you sir for your kindness, but I think it won't be needed for the time being." Hijikata also shook his head and smiled at Nagahiko.

"Understood. In that case, see you later." Nagahiko curled his lips and smiled, without paying much attention, and left quickly with Sahi and Kushina.

I believe that we will meet again before long.

Nagahiko thought in his mind.
