Seeing that Wu Tuzi and Gou Tianming seemed to believe in Su Ren, Brother Bad Breath couldn't hide anymore, so he came out of the shadows, feeling quite resentful that iron could not become steel.
"Uncle, please don't believe this kid's lies. My county magistrate will never do anything like demolishing a bridge. If we use this method of making salt, our two families can definitely make a lot of money by operating it together. From now on, Shuangzui Mountain will be our home."
The largest official salt merchant in Wenshui County.”
"Hahaha!" Su Ren laughed: "This is really funny. Don't you know that Wen Dang, the prefect of Shu County, took away this salt-making method from me a few days ago. He must be on his way to Chang'an now. At most
In less than half a year, the entire Han Dynasty will be full of cloth bags of salt. How much money will he make by then? Liu Xiancheng should know this, why didn’t he tell the two eldest brothers? "
Gou Tianming immediately felt like he was being cheated, and glared at Brother Halitosis fiercely. Brother Halitosis quickly took two steps back, pointed at Su Ren and yelled: "Nonsense, this is a remote and remote place, how can the prefect of Shu County come here?
"
Su Ren sneered: "A few days ago, the county magistrate Chang Shi and Liu County Cheng came together with the Shu County Prefect. Many people saw it. How could I be talking nonsense?"
"You!" Brother Bad Breath didn't know how to argue, so he quickly said to Wu Bald, "Master, don't listen to this kid's nonsense. This is absolutely not the case."
Gou Tianming had already drawn out his dagger, grabbed Brother Halitosis, and held the tip of the sword in front of Brother Halitosis: "Tell me, did Liu Wen lie to us? If you dare to say anything nonsense, I will dig out your eyes!"
The brother with bad breath was a little stupid: "The county magistrate never lied to you, he just said that he has this method of making salt and let Hou Jian handle it."
Su Ren let out a sigh of relief, knowing that his life was saved. When things got to this point, all he could do was watch the fun.
When Gou Tianming heard this, he became furious and looked up at Wu Tuzi: "Brother, this Liu Wen really has no good intentions. Kill this guy first and see what Liu Wen can do?"
Wu Baldzi also frowned. It was not that he had not thought of this meaning at the beginning. His original plan was to use this salt-making method to do it himself. He would not be stupid enough to believe that Liu Wen would share the good things with him. What is Liu Wen?
Such a person, Wu Tuzi is also a Wenshui person, how could he not know that?
The brother with bad breath was so frightened that he begged for mercy again and again.
But Wu Tuzi asked Su Ren: "What you said is serious!"
Su Ren nodded, with a smile on his face and sincerity in his eyes: "I don't need to lie to you two eldest brothers. If you want to lie, just find some lies. Let me tell you, you can definitely get rich with this salt-making method."
But the enemy country, maybe you will let me go as soon as you are happy, but now that your wishes have been frustrated, why should I seek death on my own?"
"Say it again! I have enmity with Liu Wen, but not with you two. In the past six months, we have always kept the same. Our salt men have never done anything. Even the salt merchant has not raised a finger. Why bother?
What if I offend you and let this hugely profitable business of mine go to waste?"
"I will not join forces with Liu Wen. I thought that my master had Liu Wen's youngest son executed. Now I have stolen Liu Wen's business, and Liu Wen has also deceived you two. After all, our two families should stand together the most.
It’s just right to be together.”
…
Wu Baldzi asked one question, and Su Ren answered ten sentences. The brother with bad breath wanted to argue several times, but looking at the bright dagger in front of him, he swallowed his words back and changed his mind.
"Su Xianzuo is right, Liu Wen is not a good guy. This time he just tricked the two uncles into getting rid of Su Xianzuo, and then took over the bag salt business and promised to provide the two uncles with food. Liu Wenyi
Even though I was not prepared, I could see clearly that Liu Wen was just trying to fool you two."
In order to survive, the brother with bad breath dared to say anything just like pouring beans through a bamboo tube.
"You two uncles, please get around this villain. I am Liu Wen's dog. I run errands and deliver messages for others. Even if he kills me, Liu Wen won't even look at me, and my hands will be dirty. Please, please, please, please,
Just think of me as a fart, right? I have an old man and a young man, so there is nothing I can do to pass on Liu Wen’s message. There are several members of the family waiting for dinner, so I can only do it against my conscience."
The brother with bad breath had runny nose and tears. What he said was so miserable that his whole body softened. If Gou Tianming hadn't pulled his collar, he would have been lying on the ground.
"Brother! Big brother?!" Gou Tianming looked at Wu Baldy in a daze.
Wu Tuzi raised his foot and kicked Brother Halitosis. Brother Halitosis was kicked far away like a sandbag. He got up, knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.
Su Ren took a step forward and made a bow: "You are all heroes. It is my goal to rob the rich and give to the poor. Although I am not as capable as heroes, I can still give you a few stones, rice, and a few coins. Everyone can live."
It's not easy. Today I will be the master. You heroes have circumvented this reckless dog. I give you this method of making salt. Although the court already has it, it will take some time to straighten it out.
In the meantime, the brothers in Shuangzuishan can still make some money, and we will work together from now on. We will only know if it is good or bad after we have gone through it. What do you think, heroes?"
Gou Tianming nodded: "Brother, Su County Assistant is right. We can't work for those dog officials in the first place. Being used as a gunman by a turtle son has already ruined our face." He raised his foot and kicked the bad-breathing brother:
"Go away, go back and tell Liu Wen that grandpa and him are sworn in!"
"Yes, yes, thank you grandpas for sparing your lives!"
"Get out of here!"
The brother with bad breath quickly got up, without even bothering to wipe the blood from his face, turned around and ran quickly into the woods.
Wu Tuzi looked Su Ren up and down. This man was only fifteen or sixteen years old. He had an ordinary appearance and was wearing a gray robe. He looked like a country boy that could be seen everywhere in mountain villages. But this man could speak well, and
There are all kinds of tricks in his hands. Tonight was originally a certain death situation, but he kept saving his people with a few words, and even said that he seemed to have done something wrong. Although it was the first time to deal with Su Ren, I felt sorry for this doll in my heart.
Be vigilant.
"Are you going to deal with Liu Wen when you go back?"
Su Ren chuckled: "We still have to rely on the help of Wu Village Master. Only if Liu Wen or the Liu family cannot live in Wenshui County can our good life begin. As long as there is a breath, that kind of insidious guy will backhand us sooner or later.
Kill him, I think it’s better to get rid of him.”
"You have a plan?"
"Not yet, but things are done by humans, there is always a way."
"Okay, then I'll just trust you for now!" Wu Tuzi clasped his fists and turned to leave. Suddenly he remembered something: "Don't forget what you promised me."
Su Ren nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, Master Wu, I am a good person, and I will never forget what I promised."
"That's good, even if you forget, I will remind you!" With a wave of his hand, a big tree as thick as a bowl broke in half and crashed on the thatched house where the salt was stored, crushing half of it.
Su Ren sent all the bandits away with a smile. From the sound of the sound, they must have gone far away. Then he sat down on the ground. His whole body seemed to be exhausted. He felt light and light. Cold sweat came out and soaked his clothes.
The robe was cool when the cold wind blew.
The evil society is really not a place for people. Killing a person is like killing a chicken. Think about where you come from. How dare you kill someone? That is a big deal. Even if you commit suicide, many people will advise you. This is good. You want to die too much.
It's easy, just find a ruthless person and say a few harsh words, and the person will be cold the next day.
Hawking gave a thumbs up with excitement on his face: "Brother, you are so awesome! From now on, you will be my role model."
"Stop flattering me!" Su Ren was lying on the ground with no strength to move: "Aren't you here to protect me? Why didn't you say a word just now?"
Hawking smiled: "Brother is eloquent. If I say something with a stupid mouth, it will definitely be bad. It's better to keep my mouth shut."
Su Ren sighed. This Hawking was only ten years old, how could he turn into a gangster? His master Leng Jun was so incompetent.
I slept one night in the brine spring and walked back the next day. On the way, I met Leng Jun and Huo Laosi. The two of them led 34 young people with farm tools and wooden sticks. Huo Jin was far away.
When he saw Huo Laosi, he rushed over in a hurry. Before he could hug him, he was slapped on the face with a loud slap.
Leng Jun looked behind Su Ren: "They didn't kill you?"
"Nonsense, how can you still stand here after being killed?"
"That's not right. Baldy Wu has always been ruthless. How could he let you go?"
"Are you expecting me to be killed? Okay, do you see? These are arteries and trachea. Take your sword and hit them. I guarantee you will never survive again."
Leng Jun rolled his eyes: "Isn't this because I care about you? Forget it if you don't appreciate it."
It was already noon the next day when we returned to Laojun Temple. As soon as he came back, Su Ren locked himself in the room and refused to open the door. Hawking took his spear and stood at the door of Su Ren, not letting anyone get close.
Even if Huo Laosi came, he would not be accommodating. Of course, the result would be another beating.
Outside Laojun's view, a group of people were kneeling in darkness. They had all returned from the brine spring. Hu Ji was already able to get out of bed, and the leader was kneeling outside the door. He refused to listen to anyone's advice and must wait for Su Ren.
After kneeling for a whole day, Su Ren came out of the room. In just one day, Su Ren's face had become much thinner, his clothes were loose, and his eyes were even deeper. This cannibalistic society
, since if I don’t eat people I will be eaten by others, so there is no need to be a vegetarian.
"Get up!" Su Ren yelled, full of energy.
Hu Ji glanced at Su Ren. Although he was thinner, he was much more powerful. With the help of his wife, he slowly stood up. Everyone behind him also stood up quickly.
"Fourth brother, give everyone a hundred dollars, even as a mental comfort payment. If you want to follow me in the future, let's continue. If you don't want to, I won't stop you. Everyone must think about it after this matter. If you are willing to come tomorrow morning
Let's meet at the door." After saying that, Su Ren turned around and left, ignoring the expressions of those at the door.
Leng Jun hurriedly caught up with Su Ren: "What's wrong with you? Why do you pay me so well?"
"I have money, why do I want to give it to them? Do I need your permission?" (To be continued)
