Chapter 22 Making a fortune

Zhou Yu waved the dagger in front of the man's face, "You're not honest yet."

The man was afraid, but he insisted on asking for money, "This is our first robbery today."

Yang Xi didn't believe it. Look at how well they cooperated. They had obviously done it several times. She was impatient in the cold weather. "You are asking for people. Tell me, how many people have you sold?"

The man's pupils shrank, but he still bit him to death to ask for money.

Wu Shan realized that they had not missed any money, and the most valuable thing was not the people. The two young women of the Zhou family, including his daughter-in-law, there were four of them, were sold to a dirty place and were worth a lot of money. When he thought about it, he was filled with anger.

It was normal for him to sell his son or daughter on the way to escape. No matter how difficult it was for him, he never thought of selling his daughter.

Wu Shan kicked him and said, "Zap."

Zhou Yudao: "The villagers don't welcome us, probably because they know the immoral things these people have done."

Wu Shan then recalled Li Zheng's hesitant expression and frowned, "How to deal with these people?"

Reporting to the official? Don't be ridiculous. Not to mention that the Zhou family cannot see the official. Even if there is no Zhou family, no one will care if he reports to the official. What's more, in this kind of mountain village, every family protects each other. They are so weak that they are afraid that they will not be able to get out by then.

Mountain village.

Yang Xi said leisurely: "We are refugees and no one cares about reporting to the official. They also dare not report to the official."

Ancient government offices are not like modern police stations in the hearts of the people. People are afraid of government offices and many matters are handled within the family.

Zhou Yu answered: "They are our hostages."

Yang Xi smiled and said: "We lack everything. Look at the thick cotton clothes of a few of us. We have a solid foundation at home. I think we can redeem ourselves."

Wu Shan swallowed his saliva. Are all officials and family members so powerful? How could Mrs. Zhou Yu say something against robbery with a smile?

However, Wu Shan was happy that the Yang family was so wise and they also benefited.

Then they all went back to sleep, not caring about the few people who were freezing, as long as they made sure they couldn't die.

After a few hours, everyone woke up and packed their things and put them on the sled.

The eight men were wearing cotton-padded clothes that had been returned. They were also freezing. At this time, they just wanted to survive. No matter how much hatred they felt, they had to endure it and obediently told them where their families were.

The two families pulled the sled out of the village first, leaving behind Zhou Xiaodi and the two younger sons of the Wu family. Zhou Yu and his party pulled the two hostages into the village.

In Zhou Xiaodi's heart, his sister-in-law's image became taller overnight, "Sister-in-law, will brother and the others go well?"

Yang Xi looked at the remaining six hostages and said, "Yes."

These eight people are the breadwinners of the family at first glance, and the people in these eight families are not good people.

Zhou Xiaomei was a little scared, "Sister-in-law, when will we arrive at our destination?"

Yang Xi patted Zhou Xiaomei. She had just set off on her journey. She felt like she wanted to learn from the experience, so she wanted to unite the Wu family.

Zhou Yu and the others came back very quickly. Everyone was carrying a bag, and they also brought back two hostages. There were torches behind them. It was obvious that everyone in the village was awake, and Li Zheng was walking at the front.

Zhou Xiaomei grabbed her sister-in-law's hand and said, "Sister-in-law."

Yang Xi is very calm, and they are confident with the hostage in hand.

Zhou Yu put down the two bags in his hands, "One bag of fine grains and one bag of odds and ends."

Yang Xi thought to himself that a bag of fine grains was not light, weighing at least thirty or forty pounds, and a smile appeared on his face, "Yeah."

Sure enough, they made a fortune through robbery. They tried their best to buy grain but could not buy much fine grain. The robbery amounted to thirty or forty pounds. The good life of these families shows that their conscience has long been gone.

The Wu family sent another bag. Wu Shan was in a very good mood, and even Yang San was carrying two bags.

Li Zheng said, "Can I redeem someone now?"

Zhou Yu seemed to be smiling but not smiling, "We are weak and you are outnumbered. Who knows if they will detain us and let us take them for a while, and then we will let them go."
