Zhang Mazi glanced at the south city gate, stomped his feet on the spot, exhaled, and saw a white mist appear in front of him.

Behind him, ten ox carts lined up, and behind them everything was piled high, covered with felt cloth, and covered tightly.

One of the coachmen shook the whip in his hand and looked impatient, not only for him, but for most of the others. It was an ox-cart, not a horse-drawn carriage, there was no carriage, there was no shelter on it, and they sat on it with cold and their livers ached. That is, these coachmen have been doing some heavy physical work for many years, and their bodies are strong, and they are replaced by Hou Fangyu's sons, who are afraid that they will freeze and fall seriously ill.

But although he was dissatisfied, no one dared to say it.

They are all drivers of a car dealership, and the location of that car dealership is the area managed by Liu San'er. The owner of this car dealership has some background, but this background is also a bit bigger, Liu San gives the people behind him a little face, and he doesn't have to pay money every month. The owner of the car dealership is not a person who doesn't know what to do, but what do Liu San'er and Zhang Mazi have to use every day, and the car dealer is trying their best to welcome them. People are giving you face, but if you don't know what kind of character you really think of, it's not a matter of raising your mouth if you want to clean up?

Every time Zhang Mazi sent Zhang Xiang'er back to her mother-in-law's house, she hired the carriage of this car dealer, but she never gave money.

Last night, Zhang Mazi ordered ten carriages, saying that he would transport some things to Panshi Fort in North Hebei Province early in the morning tomorrow - people who drove in Panshi Fort did not know, but when they heard about North Hebei Road, they knew that it was quite far, and it was a hundred and ten miles away. Ten ox carts are not a few, and it is a long way, no one wants to go in the cold weather, but Zhang Mazi did not dare not leave the city after speaking. It's the most sad to offend this kind of street character, they don't know how many small means there are to toss you to death, but they can't say it.

They went to Zhang Mazi's house before dawn to move things into the car, and after they got their hands on it, they also knew what it was, it turned out to be dozens of sacks of copper coins! Good guy, it's heavy, I'm afraid that a sack won't weigh two hundred pounds, and if you count it, it's six or seven thousand pounds!

How did Zhang Ye get so much money? What is going to happen to the Rock Fort where the money is to be transported?

The coachman who threw the whip before became bold, and asked with a smile: "Master Zhang, which uncle are you waiting for here?" This shelf is not small...... Hehe......"

"Is there anything you have to say here?" Zhang Mazi didn't give him any face, turned around and glared at him fiercely: "Shut your stinky mouth, don't talk nonsense when you shouldn't say something!" ”

The coachman shut up and did not dare to speak again. Seeing that he was eating, no one else dared to ask, and some were snickering.

After waiting for about a cup of tea, when Zhang Mazi was almost frozen and couldn't stand it, Dong Ce and his party rode out of the south gate. When Zhang Mazi saw it, he quickly rubbed his face, made a smiling face, and walked quickly to meet him.

Several coachmen looked at each other, and they understood why Zhang Mazi was so patient and waited here, without a word of complaint. This is a great relationship! Look at the group of people who came over, when they were a young man, the people around him looked strong, maybe they were the men in the army. At a glance, you can know that you are either rich or expensive, maybe you are still a high-ranking officer in the army, and the common people can climb it, which is really the fate of several lifetimes.

"The little ones have seen the adults." Zhang Mazi walked quickly to Dong Cema, knelt down and saluted.

"Get up, I'm really tired of you this time." Dong Ce looked at the carriages and said with a smile: "Drink, it's really enough." ”

Zhang Mazi thanked him and got up, and said with a smile: "This money is coarse, it is indeed not good luck." ”

It is indeed the case, such as Dong Ce's five hundred taels of silver, exchanged for 690,000 seven thousand Wu Bai copper coins, these copper coins are generally thicker and heavier than the government's money, and they are calculated based on the weight of one five grams, that is, three hundred thousand seven thousand Wu Bai Ke. A catty in the Ming Dynasty was about 590 grams, so it was more than 6,000 catties. In this era, whether it is an ox cart or a carriage, the carrying capacity is not very good, and it is not an exaggeration to ask ten carts to pull 6,000 catties of copper coins.

Zhang Mazi said to Dong Ce: "These ox carts have been promised, and when they get to Rock Fort, they will come back by themselves." You can use it with confidence. ”

Dong Ce nodded and didn't say anything more. For a character like Zhang Mazi, Dong Ce is very polite, but there are also limitations, otherwise he will lose his identity.

Zhang Mazi went back to say a few words to the coachmen, then said goodbye, hesitated when he left, and said: "My lord, please say a word to Uncle Shi, the little one has given him a New Year's greeting." ”

Dong Ce smiled: "Don't worry, I'll bring you this." ”

He knew that Shi Jin and Zhang Mazi were quite close to each other, and he also gave him a smooth knife, Zhang Mazi could not forget his roots, he was very pleased.

Wang went to beckon the ox carts to follow, and Dong Ce and his party left Yanghe City and walked slowly in the direction of Rock Fort.

Dong Zhongkang, Dong Zhongyong and the brothers are still lying in the ward of the hospital in the city, they have a lot of injuries on their bodies, and they want to heal, they don't think about it for a month or two, and they have to spend the New Year in Yanghe City. To be honest, this time, the two of them really lost a big one, and when they returned to Anxiangdun, the stronghold of the Jiading team, maybe something would happen. And the two of them have obviously become outsiders.

When he left Yanghe City, Dong Ce neither went to see them, nor did he let people inform them. This is Dong Ce's beating on them - you are my person, that's right, if you cause trouble, Lao Tzu will definitely support you and be your backer, but this does not mean that what you did this time is right. I'm not very happy about what you caused this time.

What Dong Ce released was such a signal. As for whether Dong Zhongkang and Dong Zhongyong can ignore it, it depends on their respective understandings, if they can't even understand this, then there is no need to promote and appoint.

Thanks to the ten slow ox carts, it was about three o'clock in the afternoon before they returned to the Rock Fort.

The area around the Rock Fort was empty, and occasionally you could see the members of the family team wearing battle armor, riding horses, and holding spears cruising past. Originally, Wang Hun was arranged to guard the captives who surrendered, but later the captives became more and more honest, and the internal contradictions became deeper and deeper, and the threat had been greatly reduced, so Dong Ce added the duty of patrol defense to them. All three take turns on errands, and they change every five days. Before the Fort of Rock was established, they were the only defensive force of Fort Rock.

Where do those coachmen from Yanghe City have any knowledge? They didn't know that a few months ago, this was still a deserted wasteland, and they just sighed that this Rock Fort was so tall, more majestic than Yanghe City. The layout of the road inside is so complicated that it is like a labyrinth.

When he arrived at the warehouse, Dong Ce did not let people come to pass the word before, which could be regarded as a surprise inspection.

It's not bad, Liu Daku and Su Dacheng are leading people to maintain the armor in the arsenal, and when Dong Ce came, the two of them were directing Kuding to wipe the armor and oil the blades.

Seeing Dong Ce coming, the two were stunned at first, and then hurried to see each other.

Dong Ce waved his hand: "Get up." ”

He smiled: "You two are good, very dedicated. ”

Su Dacheng and the others hurriedly said that they didn't dare, but they secretly broke out in a cold sweat. Adult's hand,It's inevitable to play too evil.,Come directly.,There are no two letters in advance.,It's too unreasonable to play cards.。 If you happen to be on duty at this time, or if you are lazy, won't you be scolded by adults?

Dong Ce said: "Come, come out and see, there are some things to be put into storage this time." ”

Both of them were a little puzzled, and they didn't feel that you followed Dong Ce out.

When the felt cloth was opened, the mouth of the bag was opened, and when they saw the sacks full of sacks of copper coins inside, Liu Daku, Su Dacheng, and those Kuding were stunned.

So much money? What do you do? Want to be tuned?

Seeing the looks on everyone's faces, Dong Ce smiled slightly, but didn't explain anything. Just let Su Dacheng vacate an empty warehouse, move these copper coins in, and keep them for safekeeping, don't get damp and rusty. Nearly 6,000 catties, dozens of sacks of copper coins also occupy a lot of territory, and it takes two or two large rooms to fill up.

Dong Ce was not stingy, each coachman grabbed a handful of copper coins as a reward, those coachmen didn't expect this unexpected surprise at all, I felt that this Dong Daguan was really a kind person, and he left with a thousand thanks.

Dong Ce casually found a bag of copper coins, grabbed a few and put them in a small cloth bag. Coming out of the warehouse, he asked Wang Tong and the others to go back first, and then took Ji Changyun to find Zhang Han.

Zhang Han's residence is outside the city, but it is far from other settlements. His dwelling was in the north of the Huanshui River, on a rather steep bank, about three or four feet high. Underneath the bank of the river is a deep pit where the water swirls and flows, and it is very fast. It is surrounded by a large area of reeds.

On the cliff bank, Zhang Han asked people to build three thatched houses, which were also very simple, and even more shabby than ordinary people's homes. There was a fence around the hut, and there was a vegetable patch inside, but now there was nothing in the vegetable patch, and he didn't have time to plant anything in winter.

Dong Ce asked him why he lived here, and Zhang Han's answer was also very interesting - he said that the scenery here is good, and it is a Yajia.

In early autumn, the warm orange sun shines down, and the slowly flowing river is flooded with a charming golden color, and the charming golden countryside is peaceful and quiet. In the reeds, wild birds fly, wild ducks pass through, a gust of wind blows, the reed poles rise and fall, and the reed flowers flutter with the wind. It is indeed a beautiful view.

But in winter, here by the river, there is no shelter, the cold wind is howling, even in the house, life should be quite difficult. Because Zhang Han lived here, the people who were looking for soft wood in this reed brick kiln did not dare to cut it, and Wang Yu also deliberately chose the fishing ground two or three miles downstream from here.
