Chapter 487: Since we are brothers, I cant take advantage of you!
Hear the words.
Qu Bo and others' hearts moved slightly.
If Liu Jizhen could get ten pieces of armor, they would really be able to escape while taking advantage of the chaos. But what they wanted was not just to escape, but to completely escape Chu. At the moment, all the officials and officials in Chu were
The nobles and the nobles had already regarded them as dead people. After escaping from Shouchun City, if they were discovered, they would inevitably not be killed.
Ten armors for them.
not enough!
It's not even close to enough.
Qu Bo's eyes shrank and asked: "Ten armors are indeed very exciting, but they are not safe. After all, we are at odds with other nobles now. It will undoubtedly be dangerous to continue to stay in Chu. Therefore, Brother Liu, you
Is there any way to get ten horses?"
“The price can be negotiated separately.”
The eyes of the others lit up and they all said, "Yes, Chu Land is not safe for us. What we want to do is not only leave the city, but also leave Chu Land. Brother Liu, you can get both armor and armor."
Now, horses should be no problem either."
"If Brother Liu is worried about not having enough money, I still have some private money saved in some places. As long as Brother Liu gets horses for us, it won't be a problem."
"Brother Liu, please help me."
"..."
Others also agreed.
Liu Jiman's eyes were moved, but in the end he shook his head.
Sighed:
"Money is all I want."
"But it's true that horses are not something I can get."
"Even with these ten pieces of armor, I almost risked my life. Horses are too conspicuous. This general does want to repay his kindness, but if he puts his life on the line, it is absolutely impossible for him to agree."
"Don't make it difficult for me."
"I can't do this."
Seeing Liu Ji's refusal so firmly, Qu Bo and others' eyes dimmed, but they also knew that Liu Ji was telling the truth. In real life, even one horse, let alone ten horses, would attract a lot of attention.
Attention, if ten horses were left standing aside, they would definitely attract countless onlookers, which would actually be superfluous to their escape.
It's just that Liu Ji was able to get the Qin army's armor, which made them think a little more.
Now that I think about it carefully, it is indeed a bit excessive.
Qu Bo cupped his hands and said:
"It is true that we thought too much before. After all, our own wealth and life are at stake, so we inevitably want to be more thoughtful. Please don't take it to heart, Brother Liu."
"Ten pairs of armors are ten pairs of armors, we have made this deal!"
Hear the words.
Liu Ji also showed a satisfied smile.
He looked slightly relaxed.
There was a hint of greed for money in his eyes.
Pretending to be pretentious, but very conspicuous.
Liu Jidao: "It is true that I can't get horses, but I have been to Shouchun a lot over the years. In addition, as a pavilion chief in the past, I would escort corvees and prisoners from time to time, so I happened to know some shortcuts to Shouchun.
If you gentlemen don't mind the small road, I can lead the way for you."
Hearing Liu Ji's words, Qu Bo was stunned.
Then a sneer flashed across the corner of his mouth.
What kind of people are they? How could they not see Liu Ji's little thoughts? Liu Ji was obviously thinking about the 'private money' hidden outside that Jing Ju mentioned earlier, but he could see through it without telling it. If Liu Ji could really help them find a way
On their way out of Chudi safely, they might as well 'trust' Liu Ji one more time.
after all.
They had already reached a secret agreement.
Except for the five thousand acres of farmland at the beginning, it is impossible to fulfill all the subsequent promises. Now that Liu Ji has offered it, how can they be disrespectful?
Qu Bo and others looked at each other with a cold look in their eyes.
Qu Bo said happily: "Brother Liu, are you serious about this?"
Liu Ji patted his chest and said, "Of course it's true. Don't think I'm careless, Liu Ji, but I know those country roads better than anyone else. As long as you trust me, I will definitely keep you safe. When the time comes,
Not to mention that the Qin army can't find you, even the nobles of the Chu region can't even hope to find you."
Liu Ji looked arrogant, and his nostrils almost went up to the sky.
immediately.
His face darkened.
He said awkwardly: "If there are only one or two of you, I can take the initiative to help you, but there are ten of you this time. This is a lot of people, and it is relatively dangerous. Even on a small road, there is a risk of exposure."
"This...ahem, pretend I didn't say it."
Liu Ji showed his shyness as a bachelor.
See the situation.
Qu Bo, Jing Ju and others knew this very well.
How could Liu Ji not want to go?
He just didn't want to go in vain.
This person is so greedy!
But for Qu Bo and others, they are not afraid of Liu Ji being greedy, but more afraid of Liu Ji not being greedy. Now that Liu Ji has taken the initiative, how can they let him go?
Jing Ju hurriedly said:
"Brother Liu, you can't just die without saving me."
"You also know that our situation is critical now, and there are countless pairs of eyes outside looking at us?"
"And Brother Liu also knows."
"We used to have clothes on our hands, food on our hands, and mouths to open, and slaves and servants would guide us when we went out. How could we know the paths ourselves? By then, we might just be running on the main road. We might not be able to go very far before we are discovered.
At that time, Brother Liu will also be implicated. Brother Liu understands the righteousness so well, why doesn't he just go with the flow and give us another ride?"
Others chimed in:
"It's the best, it's the best."
"Brother Liu, you have to help us!"
"Brother Liu, can you just watch us die?"
"..."
Liu Ji looked troubled.
He spread his hands and said: "It's not that I don't want to help, it's that there are too many of you. If I help you, I might get myself involved, and then I'll be trying to draw water out of a bamboo basket. You can ask someone else to do it."
"I really can't help!"
Jing Ju's face is sincere, and his eyes are even more sincere.
He said sincerely: "Brother Liu, in such a crisis, everyone else is avoiding us. Only Brother Liu is willing to help us. We also know that this trip is extremely dangerous, but the only thing we can rely on now is
It’s Brother Liu, if Brother Liu doesn’t wait for me, we may really be in doom.”
"I know Brother Liu has helped us enough."
"but......"
"We really have no choice."
"As long as Brother Liu is willing to help us, I will give the tens of thousands of dollars hidden in Nanjun directly to Brother Liu."

Others also followed:
"I also have several thousand coins in Dongting, and I gave them to Brother Liu as well."
"And me, I also have about a thousand yuan in Cangwu, and I will give it to Brother Liu as well."
"I also have some money left in Lingling."
"..."
"Brother Liu, please help me wait!"
"Thank you Jingju!!!"
For a while.
Jing Ju, Qu Bo, Zhao Zhou and others all saluted Liu Ji. Faced with such hospitality, Liu Ji couldn't help but look moved, with a look of struggle in his eyes. He pondered for a moment and finally said emotionally: "Young masters are so kind, I
Liu Ji is a common man in the countryside, how can he be so virtuous and capable?"
"Since all the young masters don't despise him, how can I, Liu Ji, dare to spare my life?"
"I, Liu Ji, would like to be the pioneer for all the young masters."
Hear the words.
Jing Ju and the other young masters looked at each other.
He bowed to Liu Ji again and said:
"Thank you so much, Brother Liu, for your help. We will never forget this great kindness."
"Brother Liu's trip has solved all our worries. Now that this situation has come to light, I will personally pour the wine for Brother Liu."
Finished.
Jing Ju picked up the jug and poured wine for Liu Ji.
Liu Ji did not dare to accept the refusal, but in the end he was not stubborn enough and gave away the wine glass.
Drunk with wine.
Everyone was actually smiling.
Then all the young masters actually stood up and poured wine for Liu Ji, and at the same time they also said all their compliments. I don't know if it was because they were drunk or because they were blown away, but Liu Ji actually accepted it with peace of mind.
While promoting the cup and helping the lamp, the time for the next meeting was also set, and Qu Bo and others were free to do so.
Full of wine and food.
Liu Ji was also a little drunk.
He shook his head, stood up, and walked a few steps, but he almost stumbled and fell on the spot, but managed to catch the door and stop.
He cupped his hands to the young masters in the room and said, "Brothers, I, Liu Ji, will leave first."
Finished.
He just walked out of the house on his own.
Seeing Liu Ji leaving, the faces of everyone who were smiling immediately turned gloomy. They even kicked the table Liu Ji was leaning on aside in disgust, as if the case had been stained with bad luck.
Zhaozhou's face was livid and he was about to speak.
A middle-aged man smelling of alcohol came back.
Liu Ji burped wine into the audience. The fishy smell made everyone present's faces darken. Everyone suppressed their dissatisfaction and disgust and said with a smile: "Brother Liu, you didn't drink."
With all your heart?"
Liu Ji said drowsily:
"I was walking on the road and suddenly remembered something."
"You haven't given me the money for dog meat and wine yet."
"A total of one hundred Qin half liang."
Finished.
Liu Ji spread his palms and started asking for money.
Jingju's face was as black as coal.
Where did they eat the dog meat Liu Ji brought? It was all eaten by Liu Ji himself, and where did Liu Ji really bring wine? It was clearly just a few empty bottles, did they really pretend they didn't see it?
And when he opened his mouth, he got one hundred Qin Banliang.
Do you really think he was taken advantage of?
Jing Ju was about to speak when he saw Liu Ji doing it again, as if he had just gone out for a few steps to eliminate his food, so that his stomach was empty again, and now he was gnawing on a piece of sheep bone, looking at Liu Ji's expression
The dead pig was not afraid of being scalded by boiling water, and he thought that he really had something to ask for, so he could only swallow his resentment.
Jing Ju slapped his forehead and said with a smile: "Brother Liu, look at my memory. I had such a good chat with Brother Liu earlier that I forgot about this matter. Public is public and private is private. I have to pay for this wine and meat."
.”
"One hundred Qin Banliang, right?"
"I give!"
Jing Ju laughed a few times and took out a hundred coins from his pocket, but in the end he didn't get enough. Then he looked at the others. When the others saw this, they also rummaged around, but finally got enough.
I bought a hundred coins and handed this large pile of Qin Banliang to Liu Ji.
Liu Ji drooped his legs, sat on the ground and started counting.
Finished counting.
Liu Ji nodded with satisfaction, then counted ten more from them, threw them directly on the ground, and said generously: "Since you recognize me as a brother, I, Liu Ji, can't take advantage of you, and I will also pay part of the food and wine.
"
"These ten are mine!"
Finished.
Liu Ji burped again and stuffed the remaining ninety coins into his arms. Suddenly, his chest became bulging.
Liu Ji waved to everyone, then held the door and walked out again.
