443: Work hard to complete KPI (twenty-three) [asking for monthly votes]
The salt seller was confused at first.
He looked into Shen Tang's eyes, and the shopping mall veteran immediately understood what it meant. He hesitated for a moment because he couldn't figure out the identities of Shen Tang and others. Once he answered this kind of question wrongly, his old life would end prematurely. .
Shen Tang saw his difficulty with sharp eyes.
He said: "If you have anything to say, just say it. I will not punish you because of your answer. I will keep you safe."
The salt seller asked anxiously: "The accent of this gentleman doesn't sound like someone from Shiwu. Do you want to..."
Shen Tang smiled and said, "No need to ask more about this."
The salt seller immediately realized what was going on and chose to shut up.
After sifting the answers over and over again in his stomach, he cautiously said: "Hui Langzhu, based on the fact that Xiaomin has been doing business in Shiwu for so many years, most of them are shameless people and are the best at repetition. But they also have some If you have a little advantage, you will be a mother if you have milk, and you will be attached to whoever gives you benefits. If you use it properly, it is a sharp weapon, so you need to use it with care."
Shen Tang looked a little more playful.
Xu Quan frowned and said, "If you have milk, you are a mother?"
Seeing that this beautiful woman had a somewhat unkind tone, the salt seller immediately took advantage of the situation and said, "If you have money, you will be your father!"
Xu Quan: "..."
Shen Tang burst out laughing.
I just feel that this salt dealer is worthy of being a profiteer who has been smuggling for many years and is very rich. This mouth is indeed eloquent and his ability to figure out people's hearts is not weak. However, this person also agreed with his evaluation of Shiwu, so be careful when using it. .
Xu Quan turned around and said angrily: "My lord, this man has a smooth tongue. He is not a good citizen at first glance."
The next sentence should be "drag him out and kill him".
The salt seller's face turned pale. He didn't expect that he was just playing a clever trick and got himself killed. He was so frightened that he kept kowtowing. While kowtowing with a bang, he said: "Spare your life, generals, I mean no offense to the common people." …”
Seeing that he was about to leave a red mark on his forehead, Shen Tang stopped his self-mutilation and comforted him: "We are not murderous people. We do have an important matter to take care of during this trip. Once our identity is revealed, we will You have to kill people and silence them. I think you are also an old businessman who has traveled all over the world. You should know when to be smart and when to pretend to be deaf and dumb."
The salt seller quickly said: "I know, I know, the common people know."
Shen Tang stated his purpose.
He said coldly: "The military strength in the valley is so unbearable, I will send someone to go back with you to negotiate with the refugees. If this matter is successful, you will be prosperous in the future. If not, you, together with more than a thousand people in the valley, will No one left alive!"
When Xu Quan heard this, he felt like he had a job.
Looking at Shen Tang eagerly: "Master~~~"
Despite his feminine appearance, even if he didn't mean it, there was still a bit of coquettishness when he spoke. Coupled with his seductive bright eyes, he looked like a naughty dog with his tail wagging like a propeller. But Shen Tang, a pretty dog, couldn't resist it at all. Defeated steadily.
As everyone knows, as soon as this inner voice came out, Gu Chi's eyes were a little frightened, and he stopped talking for a long time.
He looked at his lord and pressed his forehead with a slight headache and said: "That's all, I'll leave this matter to you. But to be on the safe side, you should order two hundred elites to go with you. Pay attention to safety and call us if anything goes wrong. Arrow warns."
Xu Quan blinked.
I didn't expect it to be so easy to grab.
Don't you leave a chance for Bai Su to practice?
He had doubts in his heart, but since he had obtained the military merit, he had no reason to push it out. Dang even ordered two hundred elites, got ready to go, and escorted the salt seller to the valley. Shen Tang was still worried and asked Jiang Sheng to make a hard trip. Follow along.
Gu Chi was silent.
Not to mention attacking only a hundred or so so-called "elite" refugees with this configuration, even if the number was doubled, they could easily be defeated.
It is true that a butcher's knife was used to kill the chicken.
There is no doubt about Xu Quan's ability to act. He does what he says. Relying on his previous experience in suppressing bandits, he followed the same method and easily destroyed the simple sentry tower high in the valley and stormed in with force. However, this group of refugees has been entrenched here for a long time. , it's not that there are no traps, but for the two hundred armored warriors, they are vulnerable to the elite troops led by Xu Quan who charge in formation.
Crispier than paper mache.
Jiang Sheng occasionally took care of him and secretly attacked with cold arrows, and then paddled the water for the rest. Within a quarter of an hour, he reached the family's lair and captured a group of young and strong men. The remaining ones were either old, weak, women and children, or young men with yellow faces and weak muscles.
Each of them held simple weapons in their hands.
Calling it a weapon is a bit exaggerated.
It's just a pile of polished, relatively sharp stones.
There are not even decent knives.
Xu Quan was riding a horse in full armor, looking majestic. His body was wrapped in thick armor. Although the lines could not be seen, he could still tell that he was slimmer than other soldiers wearing armor. He looked like It's a female form.
"Everyone is here?"
The difficulty level was too low, and Xu Quan found it uninteresting.
But don’t let your military exploits go to waste.
After a while, the soldiers caught a few guys who were trying to escape one after another and threw them on the ground: "Come back to the captain, everyone is here." Xu Quan did not reply, but squinted his eyes and fell on Se Se On the trembling salt seller.
The salt seller said: "They are all here."
Xu Quan waved his hand.
"Take away the leader among them, and keep the rest under guard, waiting for the death of the lord. Don't worry, you will be obedient, your lives will be safe, and you will still have a full stomach. It is no better than squatting in the valley eating grass and peeling tree bark. many?"
When I just broke in, I saw something simmering with yellow juice in a simple stone pot. At first glance, it looked like corn paste. After a closer look, I realized that it was ground bark into powder and put in the pot. Boil until soft and drink as porridge.
This thing is not easy to digest but it is resistant to hunger.
It is a good choice for the refugees who lack clothing and food in the cold winter. Xu Quan looked at it and sighed - it seems that the refugees all over the world are forced into desperate situations, and their situations are similar. Eating tree bark, Eat weeds, eat mud...
The only difference is that when the refugees in Shiwu are pushed into a hurry, they will kill and plunder with their own hands, and continue to plunder when there is not enough. However, the common people in the inland countries have been reduced to this situation, and they still want to survive this obstacle and find their way out.
One acre of land is cultivated to support the family.
After being identified by the salt dealer, the principal was found out.
About ten people were tied up.
Xu Quan was about to go home when he caught a glimpse of a strange color from the corner of his eye. He subconsciously cast his eyes to search for it, only to realize that the strange color was not the ore, but a person's hair. He was curious. The salt dealer was also a sharp-eyed, dog-legged person.
He rushed into the crowd, pulled the target out, and flattered Xu Quan, nodding and bowing.
Xu Quan ignored his flattery.
He received the order: "Take off the cloth from his head."
The salt dealer ignored the ferocious warning look in the young slave's eyes and pulled off the cloth, revealing a head of braided hair that glowed with a mysterious purple light in the sun. The salt dealer said: "This is a slave that a commoner bought with interest during his business trip...
…”
Teenage slaves are more than just good-looking.
This hair of different colors is even more rare.
The salt seller bought it at a high price to get a rare product. After all, who wouldn't be curious about such an unusual hair color?
When he was attacked and captured by the refugees, the young slave was also taken in and worked hard in the valley every day.
Despite being exposed to the wind and the sun, it did not damage the young man's appearance, but instead gave him a breathtaking perseverance.
The salt seller believed that Xu Quan liked his face.
