Chapter 12: Go to Zhangjiakou to sell goods

Zhao Wen unhooked the draft horse from the tree, and then tied the cart around the draft horse's neck.

"You deal with these corpses first, and I'll take all the goods back first." Zhao Wen pulled the draft horse and walked towards the beacon.

After working hard for more than an hour, Zhao Wen lay on the fire bed with a tired look.

"All those draft horses were killed?" Song Hu and others walked in from outside.

Zhao Wen sat upright and said: "No, there is only one left. If all these draft horses are killed, what will be used to pull the cart?"

"Oh, by the way. I haven't unloaded those goods yet. Come over here and help me unload the truck."

Zhao Wen stretched, yawned and walked outside.

Li Xiaosan followed Zhao Wen and asked expectantly: "Brother Zhao, where are the horses you killed? Why didn't I notice them when I came in just now?"

Zhao Wen turned around and smiled slightly: "Just follow me."

When Zhao Wen and others were resting the beacon, they built a wall outside the beacon to surround the entire beacon.

The goods and the draft horse killed by Zhao Wen were now placed behind the beacon.

"I took a look before, and the carts were all covered with fur, Korean ginseng and the like." Zhao Wen pointed to the carts in front of him.

"Fur? Korean ginseng?"

Zhao Daniu's eyes lit up instantly. These things are in short supply. If they were brought to Zhangjiakou, they could be sold for a lot of money.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Zhangjiakou had become the largest trading place in the Ming Dynasty and the grassland. Zhao Wen still understood this.

"What do you do with these goods?" Zhao Daniu said with gleaming eyes as he looked at the goods on the cart.

"Sell it for money, otherwise, you won't be able to eat or drink it here." Zhao Wen took a sack from the cart and tore open the opening.

I saw that the entire sack was filled with shiny black fur.

"I plan to bring a batch of goods over tomorrow morning to test the market. If the market is good, I will sell them all."

There are four large carts stored in the backyard, and each cart is piled high.

"Hey, by the way. Where is the person I brought back before?" Zhao Wen suddenly remembered that he knocked out the survivor and brought him back.

"In the hall!" Zhao Daniu jumped directly to the cart. In Zhao Daniu's eyes, these things in front of him were nothing but money.

"By the way, Brother Liu. I asked Brother Liu to take care of these three dead horses. Stew a pot of horse meat soup and let all the brothers eat meat. If you can't finish it, make it into horse meat jerky."

After Zhao Wen brought all the goods back, he killed three of the draft horses, leaving only one.

If you leave all these draft horses, they will inevitably be discovered. Besides, feeding the horses requires a lot of fodder, especially at this time, and you need to feed some concentrated feed such as soybeans to help the horses gain autumn fat.

. But now in the whole Fengsui, everyone has no enough food to eat. How can it be possible to save food to feed the horses?

Liu Wu carried a sharp boning knife and headed towards the three dead horses on the ground.

After Zhao Wen finished explaining, he headed towards the hall.

"Haha, you are border troops!"

As soon as Zhao Wen walked into the Fengsui Hall, he heard a sharp voice.

Zhao Wen looked at the smuggler squatting in the corner, tied up with five flowers, and said coldly: "What can I do if he is an officer?"

The person was stunned. Don't they know their origins? Otherwise, how could they speak to themselves in such a tone?

"Do you know who I am?" the smuggler said coldly.

At the beginning, the smuggler was still very scared, but after he found out that Zhao Wen and his group were border troops, he felt relieved a lot. After all, no matter how big these soldiers are, they can still defeat the commander-in-chief.

go?

Zhao Wen squatted on the ground, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said jokingly: "Oh? Then tell me, who do you belong to?"

"Hmph, I'll scare you to death if I tell you. I am the servant of General Hou Shiluhou, the commander-in-chief of Xuanfu Town." When the smuggler said this, he puffed up his chest and looked at Zhao Wen with a look of disdain on his face.

Listening to this man's words, Zhao Wen suddenly had a bad feeling.

"You said you are the servant of Hou Shilu, the commander-in-chief of Xuanfu Town? Who believes it?" Zhao Wen said coldly.

"Don't believe it? Believe it or not, it's up to you. I've been walking this road for several years. Most people on this road know our origins. If you go out and ask around, who doesn't know that we are the servants of Lord Commander-in-Chief? I

I would like to advise you to let me go as soon as possible, and then serve me with delicious food and drinks, otherwise, be careful with your heads." The smuggler looked at Zhao Wen and said in a strange way.

Zhao Wen suddenly laughed: "Let you go? That's impossible, but I can treat you to a big meal."

After being tortured by Zhao Wen and others, the man was already hungry and cold, but now he became excited when he heard that there was a big meal in store.

"You still have some discernment, but where's the big dinner? Bring it up to me quickly." The smuggler shouted loudly.

Zhao Wen looked at the shouting smuggler, sneered, and then took out the big black star from his waist.

"A big dinner? I'll treat you to a big meal."

Zhao Wen aimed at the smuggler's head and pulled the trigger.

"Bang!"

The smuggler's head was like an exploding watermelon, with brains splattering everywhere.

After Zhao Wen's killing that night, he no longer looked like he had just traveled through time when he killed people.

Song Hu and others in the backyard heard the gunfire and hurried over.

"What's going on?" Song Hu looked at Zhao Wen nervously.

Zhao Wen said: "It's nothing, I just killed that smuggler."

"By the way, I also got some news from him. Do you want to listen to it?"

"What's the news?" Song Hu and others looked at Zhao Wen.

"These things we robbed belong to Hou Shilu, the commander-in-chief of the Xuanfu."

"What? How is it possible?"

Zhao Daniu jumped up from the ground and walked around anxiously.

Liu Wu and Wang Qi didn't react much. In their view, the matter was already done anyway, and there was no point in rushing.

Song Hu glanced at Zhao Daniu and scolded: "What are you afraid of? Who knows we did it? As long as you don't spread the word, who knows we did it?"

"Yes, as long as we don't tell anyone, no one will know." Zhao Daniu reacted and stood there, as if he had some enlightenment.

"Have you cleaned up that place?" Zhao Wen asked worriedly.

Song Hu nodded and said: "It's been cleaned up, no hands or feet are left."

"That's good. Now as long as this guy is dealt with, no one will know about it except us." Zhao Wen pointed to the body on the ground and whispered.

Song Hu looked at Zhao Wen's distrustful look, then glanced at everyone, and said coldly: "I hope everyone will keep this in their stomachs. If anyone dares to spread the word, don't blame me for being rude.

"

"Hu Zi, we are all eating from the same pot, don't you trust us?" Zhao Daniu patted his chest and said plausibly.

Liu Wu also echoed: "Yes, we have been brothers for so many years, don't you still trust us?"

Zhao Wen gradually felt relieved when he saw everyone's vows. Also, if it was leaked, he would not be the only one who would suffer. No one here could escape. Thinking of this, Zhao Wen's heart finally settled down.

Zhao Wen and Zhao Daniu dragged the body outside and pushed it into the large hole that Zhao Daniu had dug in advance.

After everything was dealt with, Zhao Wen wiped the sweat from his forehead and returned to the beacon.

It was still early before dawn, and Liu Wu and others were busy processing horse meat, and Zhao Wen had nothing to do. So Zhao Wen took some time off, lay on the fire kang and squinted.

When Zhao Wen opened his eyes, it was already bright.

There was a faint scent of meat floating in the beacon. After Zhao Wen smelled the scent of meat, he instantly sobered up a lot.

This is the first time Zhao Wen has smelled meat since he came to Ming Dynasty.

"Brother Zhao, hurry up, this horse meat is really fragrant." Zhao Daniu squatted next to the iron pot and kept fishing in the pot with the chopsticks in his hands. When he saw Zhao Wen, he moved his butt to the side and gave it to him.

Zhao Wen made room.

Zhao Wen was not polite, squatted directly next to Zhao Daniu, took the chopsticks handed over by Zhao Daniu, and picked them up in the iron pot.

"This meat is really good!" Zhao Wen said vaguely as he took a bite of the juicy and rotten horse meat.

Li Xiaosan held a piece of bone in his hand and kept chewing it. "Of course, my brother Liu's craftsmanship is beyond comparison."

Liu Wu smiled and said: "Hehe, back then, my craftsmanship was famous throughout the country."



After drinking and eating, Zhao Wen wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and then said: "Now that we have eaten and eaten, it's time to work. Which one of you will come with me?"

"I, I, I! I have never been to the city before in my whole life!" Li Xiaosan's eyes lit up, and he kept jumping on the spot with his hands raised.

Zhao Daniu patted Li Xiaosan on the head and frowned: "You little brat, what are you going to do? Don't you know how dangerous this journey is? It will take four or five days to walk. What should you do if you meet a thief at night? Just you.

What can you do with your small body?"

When Li Xiaosan heard what Zhao Daniu said was so dangerous, he immediately pursed his lips and said, "Then I won't go."
