Although he was not involved in the unloading, he did not eat dinner.

In fact! Although everyone didn't eat dinner, they didn't eat nothing. Didn't the caravan stop when it came time to handle taxes? At this time! He asked the guys to take the time to eat dry food and pad their stomachs first.

Because! I have to unload and work when I go back. If you don't eat a little mat first, the guys won't have the strength to work.

The goods that are pulled back must be unloaded immediately. Because! Horse-drawn carriages can't always be parked on the street. Only when the goods are unloaded can the driver be sent away.

Normally, the coachman does not eat here. When the men unloaded, the coachman had to stand in front of the horse and pull the reins to prevent the horse from moving.

When the goods are unloaded, the coachman is willing to eat at the side of the warehouse, so he eats in advance. If you're in a hurry to get home, leave quickly.

The carriages and coachmen hired by the old man were generally locals, people from the city. So! Most of these people are reluctant to eat in the warehouse. They drove home in a wagon, and they had a good meal. You can drink more alcohol and then sleep with your wife in your arms.

Most of the other people who traveled with me were temporarily hired by my father-in-law. Generally, they are acquaintances who often help with the work of the warehouse, and they are short-term workers who make a living in the city.

The standard configuration of the old man's caravan is generally as follows: a carriage is equipped with one coachman and two entourage, and one carriage is equal to three people. Other than that! Three pathfinders, a few guards who can fight.

In fact! All the entourage must be physically strong and able to fight.

Because! In this troubled world, robbers can be encountered at any time. So! In troubled times, the larger the caravan, the safer it is.

The team of ordinary robbers has at least a dozen or twenty people. Robbers are generally outlaws, capable of fighting without fear of death.

And some robbers, for example, those who are hidden in the mountains, or robbers in other places, their ranks are even larger, hundreds of people.

Generally, the very big robbers are entrenched in certain places, and the government has no way to do it. But! Such robbers can be bought. When a caravan needs to pass through their territory, you can send them money and pay for the road first.

In fact! This kind of large-scale robber is not harmful to regular merchants. Opposite! There are also benefits. Regular merchants passing through this route will inevitably have a good relationship with the leader of such robbers.

And this kind of robbers, on the other hand, want regular merchants to pass through their territory. Therefrom! They can get the benefits without much effort.

So! Sometimes these robbers not only don't rob you of your money, but they protect you. If a "bandit" steals your goods on his territory, they will help you recover it.

If such robbers do not have a moral bottom line, regular merchants will not take this trade route. I'd rather take a detour than walk here. Even! I'd rather not do business than take risks.

Sum up! So! In troubled times, the bigger the caravan, the safer.

Your caravan has a hundred and ten people, and the robbers will not dare to move if they are ten or twenty or thirty people.

And also! Ancient caravans were generally accompanied by companions. After the goods are delivered, they can quickly form a market.

The old man came back this time with twenty-three carriages, in fact! His caravan to Taoyi was only fifteen. When they came back, there was a caravan that was going to Yiyi to buy, but they didn't want to empty the car. Just right! The old man wants to traffic more goods. The two hit it off and collaborated.

The other eight cars and personnel belong to each other, and the husband pays for them. Such! As long as the cost of one trip is the cost from Taoyi to Yiyi.

If you deliberately rent a carriage from Taoyi to return to Yiyi and don't pay the fare to go back, most people are unwilling.

Just like city taxis in modern society, if you don't pay to go back to the city, people won't go out of the city to the countryside. Because! The return to the city is definitely empty.

In addition to the coachman who left, there were more than 50 people who stayed to eat. Including the dozen or so guys and others left behind in the warehouse, there were more than eighty people in total.

Today, during the day, Lege has been helping out in the kitchen, slaughtering a sheep and cooking it whole. Other than that! I prepared a lot of fresh vegetables and other dishes, and cooked a lot of millet and rice. wine, also prepared two carriages.

When Lege came back from unloading, the original chef in the kitchen had divided the mutton and dishes into eight pots and placed them there. One serving is enough for ten people, and eight is just enough for more than eighty people.

The old man, the uncle, the person in charge of the warehouse and the transportation road, Le Ge, Da Nizi and others, another copy. In fact! Their dishes are the same as everyone else's. It's just that! The portion size is much smaller.

The hall in the backyard can't accommodate so many people at all, and everyone can only see the seams and insert needles, and put them wherever there are gaps.

The guys at our restaurant didn't grab the land with the outside customers and temporary hired short-term workers, they brought the dishes to the yard and put them on top of the goods, and everyone gathered around, standing and eating and drinking. There are torches lit around and there is that candlelit dinner feeling.

The outsiders, the people who had hired eight wagons from Taoyi, sat on the main seats in the drawing-room, eating and drinking. Those temporary workers, they are also interested, where there is a place, they don't care about whether to sit in the main seat or not.

Now everyone! The only purpose is: to eat! Drink!

"Everyone's done a great job! Eat! Drink! When you're full and drunk, it's time to leave! Don't rush to go! I have a gift for everyone! The old man held the wine bowl and greeted the eating team one by one.

If you don't have any other gifts, you just give them bowls or other small items. This is a separate gift, not a reward.

These things don't need to be done by the father-in-law himself, and the people below will give corresponding gifts according to the personal performance of the guys. But! The difference is not too big, so as not to cause displeasure in others.

Only with additional rewards, others will be willing to work hard or even die next time.

"You're welcome, shopkeeper!"

"Thank you, shopkeeper!"

"the shopkeeper! We all do! ”

"Come on! Shopkeeper! I salute you with a bowl! ”

"Drink!"

The atmosphere was very warm! Everyone toasted to the shopkeeper. Whether the shopkeeper drinks it or not, they drink it all.

The old man smiled and held the bowl, and when he saw that everyone had drunk dry, he also meant to take a big sip at once.

"Good!" When everyone saw this, they all cheered and applauded!

After greeting everyone, the old man returned to the room with a wine bowl. The young man holding the wine jar also came in.

When the old man greeted everyone just now, the young man held the wine jar and poured him wine.

When greeting everyone just now, the old man toasted some people who worked hard separately to express his special thanks to them. So! You have to bring wine.

On the side of the eating team, there are regulations on wine, five altars for a team, and an average of two people for one altar. You can't have too much wine, but you can't have too little.

"You eat too? Drink? What are you waiting for me? The old man saw that everyone was not eating or drinking, and said angrily.

Everyone looked at each other and smiled, and then! Pretend to prepare for a meal.

"Lege! Do you eat? You're not hungry? Seeing that Le Ge was also sitting there without moving his chopsticks, the old man hurriedly greeted.

"Daddy let you eat! You're not hungry, are you? Da Nizi took a pair of chopsticks of mutton, put it on the plate in front of Lege, and whispered.

She sat in the middle of her father and Lege, and her cousin sat next to her father-in-law. The others sat in a circle in turn.

"Hahaha!" When they saw this, they all burst out laughing. Take a hundred plating to read the latest chapter of "Confucius Scumbag Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
