Chapter 898: Fallen Crocodile Village
Chapter 900
After leaving Nankang City, He Shen bought a boat to go down the river, and spent some silver to buy two maids who were waiting with him.
Yangzhou women are known for their gentleness and grace, mainly because they are cheap. Even the boat with the maid is only more than a hundred taels of silver.
The passenger ship went down the river, a thousand miles a day, so He Shen felt that life was better. Since leaving Liangzhou, I have suffered a lot along the way. There were ups and downs, and his life was almost lost several times. Now it can be regarded as making up for it, which can make Heshen breathe a sigh of relief and plan for the next thing.
The identity of the Zhu brothers is also rising, with fine clothes and fine clothes, and delicious food and wine every day. Boss Zhu was still a little apprehensive in his heart, he had enjoyed all the blessings of his life in the past few days. Will it be doom that awaits you next......
But then again, it feels really good to do the right thing for heaven and use other people's money to help your own poverty.
The road was calm, but nothing happened. Slowly, the Zhu brothers also felt a little bored, and listened to He Shen's tone inside and outside the words, wanting to know the destination of his trip.
Regarding this matter, He Shen is not revealing anything at all. And in his heart, he really already has a plan.
He took the water route instead of the land route, not only because He Shen was luxurious, but also because he felt that the water route was safer. In these years, there was a shortage of soldiers, bandits were rampant, and there were many bandits who wanted to rob a fortune. In any case, there are fewer thieves on the water after all.
Everything was as He Shen expected, and nothing happened in the past few days. But he still miscalculated one thing, it is true that there are fewer thieves on the water than on land, but it is not none.
He Shen has been living a leisurely life these days, but he doesn't know that he has become a fat sheep in the eyes of water thieves on both sides of the strait. The main reason why they haven't done it until now is that they haven't figured out who should do it.
During a docking to replenish supplies, Heshen's ship was pasted with red paper. He Shen has been a bandit, but he really doesn't know the rules of water thieves. The bow of the ship is pasted with red paper, which means that the goods have been owned. No one else can intervene until they have done it. Of course, if the force is strong enough and the fist is big enough, you can ignore any rules at any time.
On this day, the ship left Jingkou City, and it was not far from Yangzhou City. This is Li Xing's territory, and He Shen has to stay honest. With the relationship between Toad Village and Li Xing, if he falls into the hands of Li Xing, it is estimated that the end will definitely not be too good.
A bend appeared in front of him, and the speed of the river became turbulent. Boss Zhu lowered the sails to slow down the boat so that it could survive this rapids.
At this moment, two small boats suddenly appeared behind him and came in a hurry.
"Master, master......" Zhu Qi called twice: "The other party seems to be coming for us, and the person who came is not good." ”
He Shen came out of the cabin and sensed the hostility of the group. But after all, he is a person who has seen the world, although he is not shocked at the moment, he said, "How are you two watery?"
"Enough. The Zhu brothers replied in unison.
The Zhu brothers are all ordinary farmers, and they are not water-based, and at most they can do a few dog planings. And Heshen is also a landlubber.
He Shen became flustered.
The two small boats quickly approached the passenger ship, and a dozen or so people rushed up from the boat, all accustomed to this kind of business. After three or two clicks, he turned over to the boat and surrounded He Shen and a few people.
The Zhu brothers protected He Shen behind them, each of them clenched their weapons, and said in a low voice: "Master, let's jump into the river and escape." ”
He Shen has the heart to jump into the river, but this section of the water is turbulent, and the goose feathers can sink to the bottom when they see the water. With his water nature, it is estimated that jumping into the river is a dead end.
It seems that these water thieves must have a plan to do it here, and they are not the first time they have come out to do business.
A water thief with a black mole on his forehead said: "We are the men and horses of the boss of Crocodile Village Su, and we will hand over the valuable things to each other, and Lao Tzu will leave you a whole corpse." ”
Zhu Qi and Zhu Boss held their weapons, and they were about to make a move with the enemy at this moment. In this situation, there is no other way than to give it a go and fight to the death.
"Don't do it, don't do it. He Shen smiled and separated the two, hugged his fists and said: "Who should I be, it turned out to be Boss Su's people, this should be the flood that washed the Dragon King Temple, and the family didn't recognize the family." ”
He Shen was so calm, but the other party was impressed. The other party looked He Shen up and down, and said, "Do you recognize my owner?"
"I may not know your owner, but your owner must know me. ”
"What a big breath. ”
He Shen smiled: "How do you call a hero?"
"Crocodile Village Su Boss Wang Da Worm, friends in the rivers and lakes sent a small bandit number, called a nine-headed loach. ”
He Shen Wei has never heard of this name, and he has an uncultured energy, and he is not a great person.
He hugged his fists: "It's like thunder, and I have admired the name for a long time." They are all brothers in the rivers and lakes, you want to get rich today, and I can't stand in the way of your wealth, brothers. I just don't know if you brothers want to make a small fortune or a big fortune?"
"How to say small wealth, how to say big wealth?" Wang Daworm was also interested at this moment.
"If it is only a small fortune, my brother and I still have a few hundred taels of silver in my hand, which I will give to the brothers to make wine money. As for the lives of a few of us, if you want to stay, you can keep it, if you don't want to stay, you will kill us with a knife, and you can't complain about it. ”
"Oh, you're a sensible person. Wang Daworm smiled and said, "What about making a fortune?"
"If you want to make a fortune, lead me to meet the owner of your village. has been famous for a long time, I have never met, and I will talk about the way to make a fortune when I see him. ”
Wang Daworm frowned and thought about it, looked He Shen up and down, waved his hand and said, "Come on, tie it up, and transport it back to Shuizhai." ”
Lian Heshen, including the two maids who accompanied the boat, were all tied with ropes. The people and horses of the crocodile village escorted a few people and returned to their own water village by boat.
I have to say that the crocodile village is also on the table, although it is a business of killing people and selling goods, it is very popular with the rules of the rivers and lakes. It's not at all that Li Bald's group can be compared. It was useless to the two maids along the way.
In fact, up to now, He Shen has given up the idea of keeping these two maids. In this era, human life is not as good as grass, and these two people were bought by him for a dozen taels of silver, and they are goods like mules and horses. It's a pity to lose it, but it's not a big deal.
All the way to the crocodile village, a cursory look, there are more than 1,000 people here, but it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Obviously, it is along the river, a force that should not be underestimated.
The brothers of the Zhu family were worried, followed He Shen to do things, and didn't wait for the opportunity to make a fortune, so they folded in the hands of the water thieves first.
In contrast, He Shen is unhurried. I am not afraid that the other party has a huge force, but I am afraid that the other party will not be able to put it on the table. An existence like Crocodile Village, with a cushion on his toes, can barely talk to He Shen.
