The words were divided into two ends, but they said that the Xu family brothers, not long after they left Songjiang City, were captured by Renyazi as Kunlun slaves.

That night, when the group of traffickers arrived at the agreed place and opened the box to sell people, they were stunned to find that the two Kunlun slaves had turned gray and white.

"Scared, why is it still fading?" The human teeth were dumbfounded.

As soon as the mud was dry, it turned from black to gray-white, and even a fool could tell that they had caught an imposter.

In a fit of rage, they punched and kicked the brothers, knocking out the urine of both brothers.

Middle-aged men are worthless, if it weren't for the special skin color, who would tie them up?

The rich people of the Ming Dynasty, although there is no shortage of people around them, are very envious of the Tang and Song Dynasty doctors who have orchid Kunlun slaves by their side.

However, the country is forbidden by the sea, and Kunlun slaves are extremely rare, so the price will naturally be higher.

But I didn't expect that these professionals actually fell into the eye? Transported the two fake babies out like dozens of miles!

In shame, a guy is about to chop up these two waste wood. Fortunately, Xu Fan's gag was knocked off, and he hurriedly shouted: "The hero spares his life, we can pay the ransom!" ”

When the head of the human tooth heard this, he drank his subordinates and ordered Xu Wan to explain the origin and why he was pretending to be a Kunlun slave bare.

Of course, Xu Wan will not say that he is the son of the former prime minister, and he is a dignified and upright Xiaojiuqing...... Well, they don't believe it anyway.

On the way to Songjiang Mansion, he encountered gangsters who robbed him, not only his property was looted, but even his clothes were stripped clean.

As for why he was blackened, it was just a cover-up......

Hearing the gang laugh heartily, they thought that these two guys were really unlucky, and they had just been ransacked and ran into them again.

Xu Fan took the opportunity to say that he could take them to Changxing to get the silver, and give as much as he wanted, as long as he could save their brother's life.

A few people saw that although he was bare-assed, he talked extraordinarily, and he was fat and fat, and he looked like a rich man. And they believed his words.

The head of the human tooth was ruthless and asked for 10,000 taels.

Xu Fan pretended to be in pain, and after being entangled for a long time, Fang gritted his teeth and agreed.

He is not as stingy as his old man, but he knows that the other party will not believe it if he says too much, and he may also invite death.

Sure enough, his reaction made people treat the two brothers as treasures, and he didn't feel the pressure to provoke the big guys.

The head of the man's teeth had his brothers washed and washed out, and brought them clothes and food.

The brothers who escaped death got dressed and gobbled up, feeling like they had escaped death.

The next day, the man found another mule cart and tied his brothers to it. I also sat on the side and watched with a knife. The guys drove the mule cart towards Changxing County.

It's more than 200 miles away, in fact, it's more comfortable to take a boat, but these people are old bandits in Taihu Lake. Jinke's Taihu Lake security team had already scared off their souls, and they didn't dare to leave Taihu Lake at all.

You can't walk Taihu Lake, you could have walked the river. But the Huzhou polders are fierce, and the rivers are crisscrossed by the dismemberment of the Ligang dam, and the water flow is extremely slow. Outsiders rowing a boat is like following up the ecstasy array, and if you don't get it right, you can't drive it.

Therefore, they honestly walked the dry road, and traveled seventy or eighty miles in one day, and they arrived in three days.

In the past three days, in order to improve the chances of survival, the Xu family brothers have done everything they can to coax their personal teeth into dizziness...... They said that not only did they not hold grudges, but on the contrary, they were grateful to the heroes for saving their brothers from danger.

He also said that his brothers usually admired the heroes of the green forest the most, and the chaos of the Ming Dynasty has appeared now, just like the end of the Sui Dynasty, it is the time for the heroes to show their talents!

Xu Fan expressed the hope of becoming a brother with him. He also said that after swearing, he would stop being a trafficker, and the three brothers followed Liu Guanzhang's example, recruiting troops and horses, and training village bravery, waiting for the sky to change.

"The eldest husband should mention the three-foot Qingfeng, build a great cause, and live up to this life!" After a generous presentation by the former deputy ministerial-level official, the blood of the man was finally boiling!

The head of the human tooth immediately untied the two, and then asked his subordinates to find a land temple on the side of the road, ready to worship with the two.

Taking advantage of the man's teeth to find the rooster, Xu Ying whispered: "It's over." Who are we? Bow to someone? Insulting the ancestors......"

Xu Fan glanced at Xu Ying, lowered his voice and said, "No, what should he do if he takes the money and tears up the ticket?" ”

"Uh......" Xu Ying didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore.

"Let's survive first, and then kill them all, so that no one will know what we did." After Xu Fan finished speaking, he continued to go to the man to discuss the recruitment of troops.

After a while, the chickens came. The three of them cut off the head of the chicken, burned yellow paper, and knocked one head on the ground, worshipping as brothers with different surnames.

"Big brother!"

"Second brother!"

"Third brother!"

Three pairs of hands, clasped tightly together, vow never to part with each other again.

Of course, brothers go to brothers, and money goes to money. The people still have to go to Changxing and get real money to be convinced.

So he continued on the road, and entered Changxing County on this day.

~~

In the meantime, Zhao Gongzi and his entourage walked more than ten miles along Hexi, turned over a mountain range, and everyone was cheerful in front of them, only to see a basin appear under their feet.

"Childe, out of this polder, it's Guangdezhou." Jin Ke's calm and relaxed report.

Polder means basin surrounded by mountains.

Zhao Hao sat on a rock, snorting and panting, before he smiled with a white face: "Then we are almost there." ”

The reason why he is so sure is because the Changguang Coal Mine is very strange, known as 'the ground Anhui pipe, the underground Zhejiang digging', so the memory is very deep - the Changguang Coal Mine is located on the border between the two places, and most of it is in Guangde.

"Go, inquire, have the villagers ever seen a charcoal?"

Changguang Coal Mine is a large open-pit mine, and the area is quite densely populated, and some people must have seen coal lumps.

~~

After Zhao Hao ate dry food on the mountain ridge and regained his strength, the coal miner who went down the mountain to inquire about the news came back.

The shearer reported to his son, the mountain they are located is called Grape Ridge, and there are three villages in the basin under the mountain, which are called Changjie, Jijie and Huashujie...... It means mountain valley, Zhao Hao thinks so.

A few people went to the three villages to investigate, and sure enough, the villagers had all seen black coal, but in the wooded mountains, these things were really worthless, and no one picked them up, let alone dug them, so no one knew where the mines were.

Of course, the coal miners have a set of methods for prospecting.

But they are unwilling to show their ability to eat by themselves in front of so many people.

Second, the ore veins are not to be found by looking for them, at least they have to be surveyed all over the big and small Niutou Mountains, and they can't be completed at all in a month.

Chapter Eighty-Nine

In addition, these outsiders dig pits and rummage everywhere in the mountains and mountains, which can easily attract the suspicion of the residents, thinking that they are here to destroy feng shui. At that time, it is not impossible to report to the officials, or arrest them, beat them to death, and bury them in the wilderness.

Zhao Hao thought about it for a while, and felt that their concerns were reasonable, anyway, the mine was here, and it would not run away, and he was not in a hurry at this time, so he would go back to make preparations and come to prospect again.

These trivial matters don't need Zhao Hao to worry about. Jiangnan Group has a strong public relations team, and the Pan family has a strong influence in Huzhou.

By the way, before Wu Chengen was imprisoned, he was the Cheng of Changxing County. He also led the people of Changxing to Hangzhou to petition...... Although he was intercepted halfway through, his local prestige was evident.

Zhao Hao decided to let Wu Chengen be in charge of lobbying after he went back, and took the opportunity to take the opportunity to take a stake in the coal mine, believing that the government, squires and people here could be settled quickly.

~~

The group hurried out of the mountain, got on the boat and rowed desperately down the river, and finally arrived at the south gate of Changxing County before the city gate was closed.

It is such a coincidence that the brothers of the Xu family over there also came to the south gate of the county with their teeth, but the former took the water gate, and they took the dry gate.

On the carriage, Liu Zhun, the head of the human tooth, looked at the official errand outside through the car window, looking a little nervous.

People generally don't go to the city, because they all commit crimes in the countryside outside the city, and the chance of being caught is much smaller. This time I had to go into the city to get the money, so I was naturally very cautious. They deliberately chose to enter the city before the city gate was about to close, so that people were in a hurry to enter the city, and the officials did not have time to check it, which was the safest.

"Big brother can rest assured, the city gate Ding recognizes money and not people, give them dozens of dollars, so it doesn't matter where you are sacred." Xu Fan's face was relaxed, but he was actually very nervous. He knew that the more he got to the end, the easier it was for the kidnapper's mentality to collapse, so he naturally spared no effort to massage the human tooth leader's mind.

"What the second brother said is that the eldest brother is in love." The head of the human tooth smiled embarrassedly, pointed to his right eyelid and said, "The main thing is that the eyelids are jumping over here." ”

"In our Changxing, it is the right eye that jumps wealth." Xu Ying hurriedly comforted: "Big brother, this is following the customs of the locals. ”

"Hahaha, the third brother is really good at talking, and the second brother is even more." The head of the human tooth finally relaxed, and laughed heartily: "You Changxing people are all talents, and you speak well, I like it here so much." ”

"Then stay, our family is the eldest brother's home, and the three of us brothers will never be separated!" Xu Fan said affectionately.

"Yes, from now on, we will eat at the same table and sleep together." Xu Ying also said affectionately.

"Second brother, third brother." The tears that moved my personal teeth came to my eyes, and I felt that I had never been so warm.

"Big brother!"

"Big brother!"

Xu Fan and Xu Ying also stretched out their hands excitedly, and their three hands clasped tightly together.

Sure enough, after paying a hundred literati heads, the soldiers guarding the door were directly allowed to go, and there was no investigation at all.

The people let go of the hand holding the sharp blade in their arms, and hugged the carriage towards the Xu family's house in the county seat.

~~

On the other side, Zhao Hao's boat also docked at Chengguan Wharf.

On the wharf, the citizens of Changxing County, wearing blue uniforms, blocked the entire section of the trestle. Several men with extraordinary bearings in lake silk robes were waiting in anticipation.

Seeing Gao Wu's eye-catching burly figure, one of them said happily: "Coming, coming!" ”

Only then did Zhao Hao know that these people were here to greet him.

However, Secretary Ma was not around, and he couldn't remember who the other party was.

Alas, there is no way, who let Ben Gongzi see too many people?

Jin Ke reminded in a low voice: "The one who spoke is Pan Zhongcheng's third brother." ”

"Oh." Zhao Hao nodded slightly, remembering. Pan Jitao has the first three brothers, the eldest brother is called Pan Boxiang, who has been a magistrate, is old, his legs and feet are inconvenient, and he no longer goes out.

The second brother Pan Zhongqi, who was born in Hanlin as an editor, unfortunately caught up with Yan Song's dictatorship, was demoted to the prefect of Anqing, resigned early and went home to teach his nephew to read. Now he was abducted by Zhao Hao to Yufeng Academy and served as the executive vice president. More than a dozen children of the Pan family also enrolled in academies or elementary schools.

The rest is the third brother Pan Shujun, who is two years older than Pan Jitao, but he looks more than ten years younger, obviously well-maintained, has never suffered a crime, and has not suffered hardships.

He is not a gentleman, and the family style of the Pan family can't come out, but among the brothers, someone has to guard the family business and support their parents, and it is impossible for everyone to go out and work hard. The third child of the Pan family is such a task, from a left-behind youth to a left-behind elderly.

However, after sending away his father and mother one after another, Pan Sanye, who has been a rich and idler all his life, is also a little quiet. It's just that his eldest brother and fourth brother pressed him and didn't allow him to break the Pan family's family motto of 'cultivating and reading heirlooms, not doing business', so he didn't get involved in the Jiangnan Group.

Because of the relationship between the second brother and the fourth brother, Pan Sanye often goes to Kunshan, and he is very familiar with many people in Jiangnan Group.

Zhao Hao has also seen Pan Shujun twice, and he also went to Wucheng Pan's house to worship the New Year during the New Year, but there are too many people surnamed Pan, and he didn't think about it for a while.

~~

After being reminded, Zhao Haoma smiled affectionately on the horse, and waved at Pan Shujun in surprise: "Why is the third uncle here?" ”

"Of course, I'm here to greet Childe." Pan Shujun greeted Zhao Hao with a smile, and then introduced the middle-aged man next to him: "This is Jia's parents in this county." ”

"Oh, it's really hard to welcome Lao County." Zhao Hao was taken aback, but he didn't expect Jia Gui from Changxing Zhixian County to come when he heard the wind.

That Jia Zhixian was busy returning the courtesy, and said politely: "Zhao Gongzi, who is famous in the south of the Yangtze River, is here in our county, and it is an honor for the lower officials, and the prince is not abrupt." ”

"It's uninvited, and I ask my parents to forgive me for being presumptuous." Zhao Hao stepped on the plank, hugged the guards and got off the boat, and greeted Jia Zhixian and Pan Shujun.

After the greetings, Jia Zhixian wanted to set up a banquet for Zhao Hao to catch the wind, and Zhao Hao still had a request for someone, of course, he couldn't refuse, so he readily agreed.

Jia Zhixian got into the sedan chair first, set up the guard of honor and led the way in front...... It is about the same as the police car in the previous life, which opened the road and diverted the traffic pipe, which gave Zhao Gongzi enough face.

Zhao Hao got into Pan Shujun's carriage here. Although Jia Gui prepared a sedan chair for them. But both of them are scholarly families, so naturally they won't learn from those local buns and monkeys and sit in a sedan chair.

On the carriage, Zhao Hao asked curiously, "How did the third uncle know that I came to Changxing?" ”

"Haha, Childe's Science is so beautiful, it's hard not to be eye-catching." Pan Shujun joked, and said honestly: "The area along the lake in Huzhou is my family's land, and when you changed boats at the mouth of the Xiaqi River, I got the news and hurriedly took a boat from Fucheng." ”

"I see." Zhao Hao was stunned, and suddenly heard Gao Wu knocking on the car window outside.

"What's the matter?" He pulled the window.

Before Gao Wu could answer, Fang Wen flashed out and approached the report: "Childe, the two brothers have come to Changxing." ”
