Please ask me to be the emperor
Chapter 378 Complete the mission
The leader of Baodu Village, Chen Taojin, left the village and rushed to the east gate of the village. There is a steep stone wall on one side of the east gate, and a cliff as low as one can see on the other side. There is only a winding mountain path for passage.
Chen Taojin saw more than ten people surrounding him from a distance, so he rushed over with his men. I saw that the leader was dressed in fine clothes and had a calm air. He looked like a person of high status.
He was followed by about a dozen followers, holding knives and guns. In front of him, there were two people tied up with their heads bowed.
One is a strong man, with a follower holding his three-foot-long waist knife; the other is a Taoist priest with gray hair, and a follower is holding his whisk.
Chen Taojin quickly stepped forward and asked, "Who are you? How can you make noise at the gate of my village?"
The leader of the group cupped his hands and said, "My surname is Zhang, and my name is the Governor. I am a businessman who came here to buy mountain products. I was recommended by Mr. Lu from Sanchuanji, so I came here specifically to buy some 'yellow goods'!"
"I just happened to meet these two people on the road. They claimed that they were also here to buy goods, so they wanted to go with me. I was confused and secretly eavesdropped. I heard what they said, 'They captured my master's cronies.' This is what Chen said when he was tired of gold mining."
I knew that the rest was not good for the leader of the village, so I used Mongolian sweat medicine to numb it and gave it to leader Chen as a favor. "
Chen Taojin didn't believe what he said. He was already suspicious and suspected that Liu Yinggui was a ghost. Now that the so-called "Master Zhang" really sent someone here, he needed to be careful.
But Chen Taojin was still vigilant and asked: "Where is Mr. Lu's letter? Please give it to me for a look!"
Upon hearing this, Governor Zhang took out the letter from his arms and ordered someone to pass it over. Then Chen Taojin opened it and saw that it was indeed Mr. Lu's handwriting.
I saw it read:
Brother Chen, there are merchants from the east of Henan. I have tested them and they are indeed real merchants. If you want to buy "yellow goods" from you, please contact us!
Chen Taojin was relieved. As the saying goes, "Rabbits don't eat grass beside their nests." Although Chen Taojin, the leader of Baodu Village, is ferocious and difficult to offend, he also has a place where he can win people over.
Although the gold mined in their gold mines is valuable, it can only be used if it is exchanged for silver taels and copper coins.
Although gold was a precious metal in the Ming Dynasty, it was not a currency and could not be used to purchase necessary items for the village. Therefore, Chen Taojin was able to gain some respect by selling Mr. Lu.
As time went by, the two of them, one in black and one in white, worked well together. If the last sentence of Mr. Lu's letter is "Please contact me as a matter of business", it means that the visitor can be robbed and killed; if the last sentence of Mr. Lu's letter is "Please contact me as a matter of business", it means that the visitor must not be touched. .
It turns out that the Lu family has many mountains and few fields, and food and salt are the most scarce. Because of his accent, Song Xiance deliberately said he was from the east of Henan Province, but it plucked Mr. Lu's heartstrings.
There are many plains in eastern Henan, and there are no other special products except grain. Mr. Lu knew that food was most scarce in places like his, so he decided to make more friends with grain merchants.
In addition to being able to deal with it well, Song Xiance and others also saved their lives thanks to the unintentionally fabricated origin.
When Chen Taojin saw this letter, he felt relieved. Mr. Lu is a mature man and has eaten more salt than he has ever eaten. There should be no problem with his recommendation.
Chen Taojin took the "reassuring pill" and let Governor Zhang and others in with a wave of his hand.
Governor Zhang entered the village gate, quickly approached Chen Taojin, and asked in a low voice: "I want to buy so many 'yellow goods', does the owner of the village have the goods?"
Chen Taojin was stunned when he heard this. He lowered his head and saw that the governor was holding a bright dagger in his hand. Before he could react, Governor Zhang pushed the dagger forward and plunged it into Chen Taojin's waist.
As soon as Governor Zhang plunged in, he felt something was wrong and quickly took two steps back. It turned out that Chen Taojin had suffered similar losses and had already worn a set of chainmail under his clothes, just in case.
Governor Zhang was stuck in his chainmail and did not make any meritorious deeds. Fortunately, as a royal guard, Governor Zhang is quite agile.
He quickly pulled the ropes on Song Xiance and Xiao Qinhu. Both of them were tied with live buckles and they were pulled apart at once. Song Xiance and Xiao Qinhu quickly grabbed the weapons from their left and right hands and rushed over.
Chen Taojin was caught off guard and quickly drew out his sword to fight. Xiao Qinhu then divided his waist knife into two swords. The dancing water could not splash in, so he came to fight Chen Taojin.
As the saying goes, "Watch the hand with one sword, watch with two swords." Xiao Qinhu moved left and right on the edge of the cliff, beating Chen Taojin without the ability to fight back. Chen Taojin was about to retreat, but he saw Song Xiance stabbing him out from the side. With just a whisk, Chen Taojin's head exploded, his brain collapsed, and he twitched and fell to the bottom of the cliff.
The rest of the people were fighting with the gangsters in the village, and they couldn't help but be overjoyed when they saw that Chen Taojin was dead. Song Xiance took advantage of the situation and shouted loudly: "The leader of the thieves is dead, and the rest will not be killed if they surrender!"
They are all just a bunch of people, relying on the advantages of copycats to dominate and dominate. Now that the leader is dead, how can he still dare to resist?
Immediately, they all dropped their swords, guns, bows and crossbows, and knelt down to beg for mercy.
Xiao Qinhu, Song Xiance, and Governor Zhang rushed to the mountain stronghold with their men. They were relieved when they saw Liu Yinggui and others tied up in a side room with no loss.
Everyone finally saved Liu Yinggui. Liu Yinggui bowed his hands in thanks and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Fortunately, you arrived in time so that I can complete the task as soon as possible!"
The three of them were stunned when they heard this, but Song Xiance reacted quickly. He slapped his thigh and said, "You silly boy, you are too evil-minded. Could it be that you want to seize this Baodu village and become the lord's inheritance?"
Hearing this, Liu Yinggui smiled naively and said, "It's a coincidence. When I took people to Sanchuanji to investigate, I accidentally leaked the itinerary and was caught by this thief."
"I was traveling along the way and saw that the terrain here was difficult, easy to defend and difficult to attack. I thought it was a first-class place. So I thought of it and falsely claimed that I was a trusted aide of a wealthy family and could get a lot of silver. The thief was indeed greedy. Silver, please spare my life and report the matter to the Lord."
"I still trouble you all so that I can save my life, and I can complete my lord's work."
Governor Zhang and Xiao Qinhu were both a little embarrassed when they heard this, so they had no choice but to bow their hands and say: "We just made some mistakes along the way, and we don't have any merit!"
When Song Xiance heard this, he patted Liu Yinggui and said with a smile: "Good boy, I have made your grandfather proud. I was a boring gourd before, but now I have only been here for a few days and I can speak well. You two don't have to be modest. If you say that you have an affair, If you just click on your feet, then this old man like me is just talking."
The four of them laughed when they heard this, and each of them successfully completed the task.
