Chapter 3 Down the Mountain

Although Chu Yu was the second in charge, he usually ate with everyone in the cafeteria. The cafeteria was to the west of the village, not very far from where he lived. Chu Yu was afraid that the other party would see any flaws, so he tried to speak as little as possible along the way.

When he arrived at the cafeteria, Zhai Zili's brothers all greeted him warmly, and Chu Yu dealt with them carefully with a smile.

Chu Yu didn't have to cook the rice himself. Someone had already brought it to the table, a bowl of porridge, two plates of black pickles, and a plate of green vegetables that looked like cress.

"Is this enough for lunch? Can I be full?" Chu Yu looked around with suspicion and found that everyone was eating the same thing. Some people even had worse food. They didn't even have any vegetables, just a bowl of porridge.

There wasn't much food left in the village. Chu Yu knew that, but he didn't expect it to be like this. He hesitated for a moment, and finally picked up the chopsticks and settled for a while. When the empire world is developed, everything will be available.

The bowl of porridge was finished quickly. Cai Chuyu only tasted it twice and stopped eating. It was too unpalatable and he couldn't force himself.

After the meal, Chu Yu tried to chat with everyone. Although he had the memory of the original owner, he still had to communicate appropriately so that he could get along with everyone more naturally.

After some exchanges, Chu Yu gradually became familiar with the people around him. The short boy who brought him here just now was called Lu You, and he was his follower.

Among them was a bearded man named Zheng Xing. He was the fiercest in fights and was Chu Yu's right-hand man.

There is also a tall and thin man named He Changqi. He is probably a counselor. He usually has the most clever ideas.

These three were the ones who followed him the closest before. After Chu Yu understood them more or less, he asked everyone, "The days have been getting worse and worse recently. It's not going to work like this. I wonder if you have any ideas."

Chu Yu was not very familiar with this world, so he wanted to hear if the "locals" like them had any way to make money.

"Second Master, I heard that there is a tiger in Maple Grove. This guy is worth a lot of money. How about we go and kill it." The first one to speak was Lu You.

After hearing this, He Qichang immediately objected, "This won't work. Tigers are not easy to kill. If something happens, many brothers will die."

"Then tell me, what can we do?" Lu You was a little unhappy when his proposal was rejected.

He Changqi looked around and saw that there were no outsiders, so he came over and whispered to Chu Yu, "Second Master, how about we go down the mountain and have a go at it."

The master has been gone for so long and there is no news. There is no need to always abide by his rules. People should live for themselves.

When Zheng Xing heard this, his eyes lit up and he echoed, "Yes, do it!"

"This is good!"

"I agree!"

"I agree too!"

Not only Zheng Xing, but everyone present responded loudly. They were originally bandits, and it was too much to let them stay in the mountains all day long and do nothing.

Their commotion caught Chu Yu a bit off guard. He was a modern man and had lived in a civilized society since he was a child. To be honest, it was hard for him to accept the bandits' robbing families and homes.

"Second brother, don't hesitate. As long as you do it, everyone will have meat to eat." Zheng Xing was very excited now, thinking that Chu Yu would nod quickly so that he could copy the guy down the mountain immediately.

Seeing that Chu Yu was silent, He Changqi couldn't help but start to persuade him, "That's right, Second Master, there are so many merchants passing by on the official road every day, and there is a lot of property waiting for us. We only need to pick one at random to rob him."

"Let me think about it again!" Chu Yu was a little moved. This job is indeed very profitable. No other business can compare with it, and it doesn't require capital. To develop his empire world, he also needs to build a legion. He relies on doing

Trading is indeed a bit slow.

When a bandit collects some money to buy a pass, this is just a trivial matter. It is too fussy and seems a bit unnecessary. What's more, this is still in troubled times, so why bother with so much? It is the last word to be strong. Besides, I don't kill people or set fires.

Just borrow some money and use it. This is not a sinful thing. Thinking about it this way, Chu Yu felt much better.

"Brothers, take the guys with you and let's go down the mountain." Now that we have figured it out, let's do it. Chu Yu took the lead and walked outside with firm steps.

Chu Yu didn't bring many people down the mountain this time. He only called a dozen or so of his own people. After all, this was a private action and it shouldn't be too public. If Mo'er knew about it, it would cause a lot of trouble.

The mountain road was a bit rugged, and after walking for more than an hour, we finally saw the legendary official road. Everyone was a veteran, so they took their positions and found the best ambush position with ease.

After holding it back for so long, everyone was very excited, wishing for a fat sheep to come over immediately so that they could fuck it. Only Chu Yu was doing this "for the first time", so he was inevitably a little nervous, and his palms were

I was sweating all over.

After waiting for about a stick of incense, the official said, "Don't talk about merchants and fat sheep." He didn't even look at anyone.

"It shouldn't be!" This is an official road, and it is the only way to go to Zhoufu. There are quite a lot of pedestrians passing by on weekdays. How come it took so long for no one to pass by? It's a bit abnormal.

Waiting like this was not an option. Chu Yu wanted Zheng Xing to go explore the situation. At this moment, the sound of fighting suddenly came from the front.

What is going on? Chu Yu frowned, turned his head and told Zheng Xing, "Go over and see what's going on!"

"Yes!" Zheng Xing nodded, then ducked back from behind the big bluestone.

After a while, Zheng Xing ran back. He stood on the official road, raised his head and shouted to this side, "Second brother, let's go over quickly, the gang in Laohuzhai is robbing us of our jobs."

Chu Yu jumped out from behind the bluestone and asked eagerly, "Why are the people from Tiger Village here? Are you sure you read that right?"

Laohuzhai is another group of bandits in this area. One of them is on the east side of Qixing Ridge and the other is on the west side. The two groups have always been in harmony with each other. Why did they suddenly come here this time? They were just passing by here.

After all, they still came to grab the territory.

Zheng Xing nodded affirmatively, "That's right, I can see clearly that the leader is Liao Laosan from Laohu Village."

If it was really them, then the matter would be very serious. As the second master, Chu Yu could not ignore them. He thought for a moment and asked in a deep voice, "How many people are there in the Tiger Village?"

Zheng Xing replied, "I took a look, and there were about forty people."

There were more than forty people, almost twice as many as they had here, so things were a bit difficult to handle.

"What about the other party? Who is he?" Chu Yu continued to ask.

"That group of people looked like officials' relatives. They had a gorgeous carriage and about a dozen guards following them." Zheng Xing often did this job before, and the intelligence work was still very detailed.
