Chapter 1051 Bandits Invasion

"How's it going, dick? Did you get any new information?"

The sky was turning dark, and a bunch of boats, large and small, quietly gathered on a waterway from all directions. A man with a strong back and a muscular body jumped from the bow of the big ship and asked the burly second master who had just boarded the ship.

"I inquired carefully and learned some information, but there was nothing special about it. It was similar to what I had inquired about before. I mainly looked at the surrounding environment, and it was better than expected.

There are many major waterways in the surrounding area, all flowing into the surrounding area, and there are also numerous small tributary irrigation canals. Although many of them have dried up or are temporarily unnavigable, the weather cannot continue to be dry.

When the rain comes, these places will be filled with water, and we will be able to escape in all directions. The shop is also big enough, and the surrounding villages and towns are quite prosperous. I feel that with a little management, life will be better than that poor place.

!”

"Okay! When will we do it? Do we do it now or wait until dawn tomorrow?"

The leader nodded and continued to ask the second brother what he meant. Although the second brother was taller, the second brother obviously had a role as a strategist in the gang.

"It's just right now. Those who sent the fish haven't come back yet. Wait until tomorrow, at noon, and all those who ran the boats will leave. It's not appropriate to take action at that time.

But don’t shoot directly when you go in. Surround them outside first, then scare them, and try to see if we can talk about the cage. If we can talk, it can save us a lot of trouble."

"Okay, let's arrange it according to your wishes!" The leader still nodded in agreement and did not object.

"Okay, big brother, hold on to me from behind, and I will go up and talk to them in person!"

After the second brother finished speaking, arrangements were made immediately. Soon there were people on the boat, but there was not much noise. Then people got off the boat in an orderly manner.

The sky had just been sprinkled with silvery white. Under the slightly hazy light, a small boat full of people sailed out along the waterway and rushed to the edge of an inlet, where lanterns were hung to guide the lighting.

"...touch..." Someone insisted on kicking the open door, attracting the attention of the shopkeeper, waiter and others who were busy in the hall.

"Brothers, I don't know if you're here late at night. What can you tell me?" The shopkeeper walked out of the counter and bowed his hands to the dozen or so people who came in.

"I heard that your store is very popular, we brothers! I want to borrow your store to help me get some food!" The second brother didn't show politeness and spoke directly, even with a little tact.

The shopkeeper was a little unhappy, but in the end he managed to smile and said, "With just a few brothers, I'm afraid I won't be able to afford this restaurant."

"Our brothers are here, and naturally there are more than just these people. They are waiting around! I just want to give you face, and don't want to hurt the harmony."

The shopkeeper heard this and looked outside the door. The second boss also asked his subordinates to get out of the way. There were indeed many people outside the door.

Seeing this scene, the shopkeeper seemed to have given up. He sighed helplessly and said: "I can give it to you brothers, but you have to buy it with money. You can't borrow it for nothing.

Judging from the accents of several brothers, they must be from out of town. Although we don't have much ability, we may not be able to do anything to you, but we still have the ability to add a little bit of trouble, and I guess it won't be that easy at that time."

The second child stared at the person facing him for a few seconds. He didn't hide at all. Although he seemed a little guilty, he still felt confident.

"...Okay..." The second child nodded decisively and said, "The money can be spent, but please tell me how to sell it!"

The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief and said: "We are not greedy. Based on the cost invested, it is the money spent on buying it, repairing and adding items, as well as the up and down management expenses, and the remaining inventory payment.

Forget it! If the payment is settled quickly, we can help introduce you to the connections, purchase channels, ship passengers, etc., so that you can take over the business smoothly. "

"...It's so refreshing..." The second child cupped his hand, but quickly changed the topic and said: "The shopkeeper agreed so readily without asking the boss? Or do you just want to delay the time?"

"... Don't worry, don't worry..." The shopkeeper waved his hand and said with a smile: "I also raised shares, so I can be considered half the boss of this business! We just saw business opportunities and took the opportunity to make some quick money.

The reason why the business is so booming is that there is a drought around Shanghai, and the supply of aquatic products produced in fresh water is difficult, so the price has increased slightly, which is profitable.

Someone set up a game, so we joined in. We don’t have much to do with this industry, and we don’t want to do it for a long time. We just plan to make a quick buck after finishing this wave of market trends.

.

However, it is a bit unexpected for you to come to us so early. However, as long as you can get back the money you invested, then what you earn in the past few days will be considered as interest. We are not greedy, and it is enough to earn this.

You don’t have to worry, even if the Shanghai fish market declines, the main impact will be on those who deliver fish, and the impact on accommodation and ice sales should not be much."

After hearing this, the second child frowned slightly, his heart sank, and said, "Isn't the shopkeeper joking? If the market is not good, how can anyone be willing to send fish? How can there be people living there or buying ice?"

"...Sigh..." the shopkeeper waved his hand and said: "You can't calculate the accounts like this. It costs money to send fish to the boat. If you don't use it, it's all in vain. As long as they still make a little money, they will continue to run.

And it’s true that Shanghai is close to a river, but the freshwater fish products are far inferior to those in the surrounding lake areas, where millions of people live! There are so many people eating there, so even if the price is lowered, it won’t be much lower.

No matter how bad it is, they have an empty boat on their way back now! At worst, they can carry some goods along the way to earn freight, or they can even get some fish from the sea from Shanghai, and they can probably make a bit of money.

How can a living person suffocate his urine to death? There are always people who can find a way, but whether you can make money from it depends on your ability, and even whether they can make money may also depend on you."

The second child also nodded slightly and thought about it, but even if he couldn't make this money, he was still going to let them stay here. After hearing this, he felt that there was hope for a change, but he was not convinced either, so he still had to go and find out for himself.

"If you feel that you can't believe this, you can also reserve some shares for us. To be honest, if you can find them so early, it seems that some of them have some vision and ability. It is worth investing. If you are willing, the corresponding share will be deducted directly from the capital.

That’s all.”

"...We will consider it..." The second son nodded seriously and responded. The shopkeeper did not force himself and reported the corresponding costs directly.

After the second son nodded in approval, the shopkeeper stopped talking and directly summoned all the helpers in the store to indicate that he could take over.

The second brother did not let people in directly, but first signaled to his subordinates to look around inside to make sure everything was correct, and then asked the eldest brother behind him to lead people in.

There was no body search, but the second child believed that if the other party did not dare to do anything in front of his eyes, he would not do anything wrong!

A large number of people poured in at once, almost occupying half of the lobby. The shopkeeper looked surprised, as if he did not expect there to be so many people.

The second child met with the boss, third, and fifth, and discussed in a low voice. The third child was the one who rushed back to join the boss before the others left. He was also a slightly stronger man, but a little fatter.

After discussion, the boss and others also agreed to spend the money and settle it directly to save themselves as much trouble as possible in the future.

"We will settle the capital directly at once and keep another 20% of the shares. However, we need you to keep it and explain it to us. It will not waste too much of your time. After selling the ice once during the day tomorrow, it will not pass.

Stay more."

Hearing this, the shopkeeper nodded in agreement and said, "We still need to tidy up some things and clear the place for you. Of course, we will hand them over as well."

After the second son agreed, Zhang refused without being polite and immediately led people to start packing things. Of course, the second son also arranged for someone to watch and quickly came over to report to him.

The second brother felt a little uneasy and rushed over. He saw the shopkeeper and someone carrying several long wooden boxes out of the woodshed. When he saw no movement, he felt a little relieved.

"Shopkeeper, what are you carrying? It looks heavy. Do you need a helper?"

After looking at the dozen or so people behind him, the shopkeeper didn't criticize him and said with a smile: "No need! We can do it ourselves. As for the things! It's just a little thing. This person has no business and no business, so there's nothing wrong with it.

I don’t dare to do business here!”

The second child also smiled when he heard this, haha! Who would hide the things they need to protect themselves? What really happened? Is it too late?

However, the second child was also slightly shocked. It was a bit beyond his expectation. This guy looked a bit harmless. Although he didn't really believe it, he never expected that the other party would hide such a pile of things.

My brothers just now saw it very clearly. The shopkeeper led people to move the firewood pile, peeled away the top layer of soil, and directly pulled out three boxes of guns.

One box of long guns and one box of cannons were only missing a few guns, while the other box contained more than half of a box of almost unopened bullets. How could ordinary people hide these things?

But despite this, the second child did not expose it directly, but asked with a smile: "Since we are no longer operating here, we probably won't need these, why don't you just give them to us cheaper? It just so happens that we are also a little short.

"

The shortage is indeed a shortage. Of course, the shortage is not just a gun for each person. Although the guys they have are not enough for each person to have one, they do not need one for each person.

After all, there are always people in their group who are responsible for running errands, cooking, operating boats, and doing various chores. Not everyone needs a gun, so the ones they have are enough.

It’s just that things don’t always go smoothly with those guys, and they can also break down or get damaged. It’s good to buy them, exchange them, save some for spare, or recruit people later.

Of course, there are also those that he values, such as those bullets, which have been worn out along the way. Those who are unfamiliar with the place have no place to replenish them. There are not many left on hand. This is because after easily defeating Jin Asan's men, they now want to try their best.

Reasons to avoid each other.

The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement and motioned to his subordinates to put down their things and let the second man check them.

Seeing this behavior, the second child became more sure of his guess, but he didn't waste any time and checked it himself. After confirming that there was no problem, he quoted the price.

This time the shopkeeper didn't hesitate, he just nodded and handed the items directly to them without asking them to pay.
