Chapter 11 Secret Discussion
Another day will be the beginning of winter, and the weather outside the border will be colder than the Ming Dynasty in the Great Wall. From noon, the sky in Zhangjiakou will be sparsely falling. This is the first snow in winter, which is concerned about the hearts of countless people. The snow is directly related to the livelihood of the grassland people and the roads of the caravans. The fine salt-like snow particles stopped for a while, and the air was very dry. The drought in Liaodong the previous year seemed to have begun to spread westward slowly, causing the first snow to end without a break.
The horse thief in the deep mountains was in full joy at this time, like a pie falling from the sky. I don’t know what the boss is capable of, but someone actually brought supplies to the old camp for no reason. More than twenty bags of grain, three slaughtered fat pigs, and the most important thing is that there are more than twenty jars of fine wine, which is even better than the New Year.
Zhai Zhe was furious and asked Meng Kang to put out all the things he brought into the valley so that all the minions could see clearly.
"Boss, I didn't lie to you, right?" Zhai Zhe laughed loudly, with a arrogant expression.
"Brothers, after you are working with me, you will never let you be hungry again! Enjoy this wine and meat!" Zhai Zhe raised his arms and shouted, and the horse thieves whispered.
The man behind the Sky Eagle changed his face and whispered: "Big boss, is this kid a little too much?"
The corners of the shriveled mouth of the Sky Eagle twitched a few times and said, "Zhang Er, you are just a young man, don't worry about him. I will squeeze the oil and water to look better than him."
The group still entered the largest earthen house and sat down with the guest and host. Zhai Zhe took the seat without hesitation.
Zhai Zhe picked up a wine jar and patted the mud seal at the mouth of the jar. A fragrance overflowed. Even the Sky Eagle hadn't tasted such a good wine for a long time.
"This is Zhuyeqing for five years, and it's not a good wine. When will the boss come to the market, I will invite you to entertain the boss. There are also girls from Yixiangyuan, whose skin is as smooth as milk!" Zhai Zhe said, and squeezed out a despicable smile.
"Young Master Zhai, I'm joking!" Zhuan Tianying handed over a porcelain bowl. Zhai Zhe poured wine into the jar, and the hops flowed out were as clear as a mountain spring, and the mellow fragrance of wine made people drunk.
"In a month, we will have a caravan to Liaodong. As long as the boss can escort us to travel safely, we will ensure that such fine wine is supplied." Zhai Zhe lowered his voice and said, "If this matter is done, the reward we will give to the boss is this number!" He stretched out his index finger on his right hand.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!" The clay eagle smiled and didn't smile.
Several people were drinking and drinking a few bowls. Xiao Zhiyan only drank without saying anything, while Meng Kang kept calling for pleasure.
After drinking a few bowls of wine from the Sky Eagle, he said to the two men standing behind him to serve him: "Come and try it too. I have never drunk such a good wine since I entered the grassland!"
Hearing this, Zhai Zhe immediately stood up and said, "The wine I brought here today is for the brothers in the mountain village to taste!"
The Sky Eagle was stunned and didn't say anything for a long time.
Zhai Zhe seemed to have a sudden realization and said, "You are afraid that you will not be able to drink enough, right? Today, I will drink all these for my brothers. In a few days, I will send some more. As long as things can be done, what are these things? Everyone will be friends in the future!"
The Zantianying laughed dryly, with a little embarrassed expression and said, "Yes, that's great!"
"After you and I cooperate, the hard days of brothers will be over!" Zhai Zhe turned to the ear of the Sky Eagle, and lowered his voice and said, "I'll give you a little news. In recent days, some small-scale caravans passed by Zhangjiakou to Tumochuan. If you are ambushing there for a few days, you will definitely win."
The Sky Eagle hesitated for a moment and said, "That is the Chahar people's residence."
"Twenty people are enough to lie in ambush." Zhai Zhe pointed out, this was the sweetness he gave to the Sky Eagle.
At one noon, more than half of the twenty jars of wine that Zhai Zhe sent, Zhai spent. Zhuantianying kept five jars privately, and all the others were shared with the horse thieves in the village. Stimulated by the alcohol, the horse thieves, who were originally silent, were in a high mood.
Zhai Zhe was unable to drink, and he was already a little drunk at the end. Xiao Zhiyan was completely opposite to him. He was not drunk for a thousand cups, and his eyes became brighter and brighter as he drank.
"Big boss," Zhai Zhe shook his body a little when he stood up, "Don't forget the serious business a month later. Before the caravan set off, our boss wanted to see you. Meng Kang is my brother, so we found you."
"Don't worry! I'm a little embarrassed in Duoyan Grassland." The sky eagle reached out to help him, but was blocked by Xiao Zhiyan on the side.
It was already half past when we bid farewell, and Meng Kang sent the two out.
When Zhai Zhe walked away, Zhang Er couldn't help but scolded: "This kid treats our village as his own!"
"Zhang Er, you are a little bit too. The rich businessman is so arrogant and arrogant. But the person around him is good at it and should not be underestimated!"
"Do we really want to escort them through the Duoyan Grassland?" Zhang Ernanchou's family did not have this strength and couldn't help asking questions.
The Sky Eagle sneered and said, "I have my own idea!"
The horses in the forest were not walking fast. Zhai Zhe, Xiao Zhiyan and Meng Kang were wandering all the way. After leaving the valley, the cold wind swayed, and Zhai Zhe's alcohol was awakened by 80% of the time. The three of them didn't say much along the way. After leaving the winding mountain road, Meng Kang, who was walking in front, turned around and asked suddenly: "Do you two have any intentions? I know that although the guy is not good at drinking, his alcohol tolerance is not so bad." Zhai Zhe's performance today is very different from Meng Kang's memory. The more he thinks, the more he becomes, the worse it is.
"Not bad!" Zhai Zhe nodded, "We are going to escort the caravan through the Duoyan Grassland, but we will never pin our hopes on the Diantianying!"
Meng Kang was completely drunk and asked, "What do you want to do!"
"The Zhai family wants to fund a horse thief, but it must be in the hands of its own people!" Zhai Zhe said the truth, "We don't have time to reorganize a horse thief, so we discussed a plan to occupy the magpie's nest with Brother Xiao!"
"You want to plan on the boss!" Meng Kang was shocked and sweated coldly.
"It's not "you", it's us!" Zhai Zhe slowed down his speech. He had no intention of discussing with Meng Kang at all. He continued: "Kill the Sky Eagle, how sure are you to master this horse thief?"
Meng Kang was a little confused and shook his head and said, "I don't know!"
Xiao Zhiyan interrupted, "Brother will send another batch of supplies here. The third time we are about to take action!"
"You are going to do something in the old camp, it's so crazy!" Meng Kang shook his head repeatedly.
"You are also a horse thief, you should know them. You can only have enough food and clothing after the Zhuantianying. In winter, you will occasionally go hungry. With us, we have wine and meat, what will you choose!" Zhai Zhe amplified his voice. This was Xiao Zhiyan's idea, and he was also a horse thief.
"There are nearly twenty close friends in the Sky Eagle!" Meng Kang was still shaking his head.
"How many do you have?"
"Five or six!"
Seeing that Meng Kang was still hesitating, Zhai Zhe exclaimed him and said, "Kill the Zangtianying, this horse thief belongs to the three of us! The Zhangjiakou business name will fund us. At that time, this horse thief is no longer a rootless tree. Think about it, when will you live like this life be like this?"
"Damn it, I've done it!" Meng Kang gritted his teeth, "Zhuntianying has always used me as a knife! Don't blame me for being unfaithful! What do you want me to do?"
"Okay! This is the brother!" Zhai Zhe nodded, "You do nothing first when you go back, and promote our benefits more. Remember, once again, we will be the time to start! Be prepared to wait for my news first."
"good!"
The three of them broke up at the entrance of the Railing Stone Valley. It was only a few days before the last time they went out, but the weather was much colder. Zhai Zhe felt that the thin fur coat on his body could no longer block the cold wind on the grassland.
"You have leaked the news to Meng Kang so early, aren't you afraid that he will let it go?" Xiao Zhiyan asked with a smile.
"Meng Kang is a man with thick outside and delicate inside. It is good to tell him the news early!" Zhai Zhe and Meng Kang have been familiar with him for several years, and have helped him get out of here and understand his temperament. This man looks reckless and loyal, but in fact he is full of heart.
"Have you ever killed someone?" Xiao Zhiyan asked suddenly.
Zhai Zhe was stunned for a while and replied, "No!" He has been practicing martial arts with Hao Yangyou since he was a child, practicing kung fu every day, and often seeking people to discuss it. But if he wants to draw his sword and kill people with his own hands, he has never done it. The Zhai family has so many guards, why is it his turn, the second young master, to kill people?
"How can you be a horse thief if you haven't even killed someone? You still want to be angry in the horse thief's nest. If you have this courage, I don't want to accompany you to die."
Xiao Zhiyan's words made Zhai Zhe feel indescribable, but he had no way to refute it.
"Tomorrow, you can change your equipment and I will take you to try the feeling of killing!" Xiao Zhiyan's tone made Zhai Zhe feel heartbroken, and there was an indescribable excitement in his heart.
The winter night came very early, and the sky was completely dark when the two returned to the market. There were a few red lanterns on the streets that were swaying in the cold wind. Zhai Zhe returned to the business chef and fryed four side dishes and delivered them to his house. The two of them simply used up dinner.
Before leaving, Xiao Zhiyan had a bad smile on his face and said, "Tomorrow, you put on soft armor and change to a war horse. I will take you to the grassland for a while and let you see my skills!"
"Go to kill someone!"
"It depends on luck!"
One night, with excitement in fear, Zhai Zhe tossed and turned, unable to sleep all night.
