One hundred and fifty-six chapters become attached to Heifengzhai
Although the secret guard can protect his safety, if he is in the town he does not have the confidence to protect all the people, and if someone is injured because of his things, he will still feel quite embarrassed.
After following Yang Sanzhen and the others up Liangshan Mountain, Lin Chong looked around curiously. It seemed that there was no difference between this place and an ordinary mountain.
Except for some not-so-obvious signs on the winding paths they were walking on, and this was discovered by Lin Chong through careful observation while being guided by others, everything else seemed normal and ordinary.
Therefore, it makes sense that the government cannot exterminate the bandits here in Liangshan. The terrain is rugged and there are no obvious signs. If there is no one with you, it may not be easy to find this place.
"Hey? Brother Yang, aren't you worried that I am a traitor sent by the government? In fact, it is just a play. The purpose is to find your location so that you can go back and report the news."
Yang Sanzhen chuckled: "If you are really a traitor, our boss will not let you walk down the mountain alive."
"You are the boss? So you are not the boss yet?"
Yang Sanzhen scratched his head: "Of course I am not the master. In fact, I am just an ordinary person. Our master is very powerful."
When Lin Chong heard what he said, he was very curious about what this big boss was like. "Brother Yang, what is your name?"
"You mean us? We are Black Wind Village. Brother, have you heard of us?"
Lin Chong nodded, he had heard too much.
It seems that the reason why Heifeng Village is famous has a lot to do with the leader. Lin Chong's main purpose of going to Ivory Hill is to collect grain, but a very important reason why he is interested in these bandits is that he needs manpower now.
.
He heard that the bandits here had never done any bad things and were very upright, so he wanted to see if he could recruit them to join the army. This would not only solve a problem in business in the past, but also give these people a more open and honest way out.
After countless twists and turns, we arrived at a certain place in the mountains. To be honest, even if Lin Chong really wanted to remember the way here for the government, he might not be able to find it next time if he was asked to lead the way.
Come here.
When they went up the mountain, the sky had begun to darken, and the trees on the mountain were densely covered with shadows. It was even more difficult to remember the way. Lin Chong didn't know if his secret guards could keep up.
As they walked, Yang Sanzhen also struck up a conversation with Lin Chong: "Brother, I still don't know what your last name is and how you call me?"
"Oh, I was careless. I forgot to tell you that my surname is Lin. Just call me Lin Chong."
"Your name is very good, it sounds aggressive. I must be a few years older than you, so I call you Brother Lin. I wonder what I am doing here? This is not Ivory Hill either.
There is some kind of rare treasure hidden somewhere. It seems that your family is well off, why would you bring two children to a place like this?"
Lin Chong looked at the two naughty children beside him and let out a long sigh: "Brother Yang, let me tell you the truth. My family has opened a grain store in the capital. It's not just a matter of picking up grain just by looking at it."
Is it the season yet? My father asked me to come out and try my hand at it, so I came out with two boys. These two are my study companions. The older one is named Lin Muxi and the younger one is named Lin Fei. They have been together since they were little.
I grew up at home, I haven’t seen much of the world, and I’m very stupid.”
Mu Xi rolled her eyes, obviously disagreeing with his statement. Mu Xi didn't understand the current situation at all, so he didn't say anything.
It looked like the two of them were children who had never seen the world.
Lin Chong came closer to Yang Sanzhen and whispered to him: "Although my father says that he has to do everything on his own and he won't care about me, I know in my heart that he will definitely send everyone to follow me secretly. This
Once I saw those people misbehaving in the street, I was really angry so I spoke to stop them. Later, they went too far, so I wanted to trick them into a corner and teach them a lesson. I didn't expect to ask Brother Yang to come out first.
Got it."
Yang Sanzhen himself was originally a farmer. He didn't know what the guards trained by wealthy families should look like. After hearing what Lin Chong said, he felt that the matter was reasonable.
He suddenly remembered something: "I heard from people in the neighboring town that someone has been collecting grain from them in the past few days, and the price was one tael of silver per dou, could it be..."
Lin Chong chuckled twice: "Yes, I am the one who collects the grain. How about it? The price I set is fair, right?"
Yang Sanzhen shook his head: "The price you set is more than fair. Aren't you going to lose a lot? Your father will be very angry when you go back."
"Huh? How do you say this?"
Yang Sanzhen looked at him as if he didn't understand anything. He couldn't help but worry about his rice shop. How much would it cost to sell the grain at this price? If it's too cheap, he'll lose money; if it's too expensive, he won't be able to sell it.
If it goes out and rots in the granary, won't it mean that you will lose more?
"Brother Lin, although you have good intentions for the sake of farmers, if you take back the grain at such a high price, your rice shop will have to set a higher price to ensure that there is revenue. In this way,
No matter how good the quality of the rice you purchase is, it will not be easy to sell, and once the price is set too high, it will put a greater burden on farmers."
Lin Chong waved his hand: "When I collect grain, I always ask them to take out their own grain for the winter first."
Yang Sanzhen patted him on the shoulder: "You are still too young. If you buy it at such a high price, who will leave enough food?"
Lin Chong did not expect this problem, but if this is the case, the disaster will still endanger ordinary people. It is inevitable that food prices will rise. Even if he collects a large amount of food, it can only calm food prices to a certain extent.
This year, so many grain stores in the capital have not received good grain, so what they have hoarded will be sold at a higher price. Lin Chong has no intention of taking over the grain in their hands.
No matter what the world is like, if the poor want to eat, the rich will also eat, so let’s give this expensive food to the rich. This will not only ensure the country’s tax revenue, but also reduce the burden on the common people to the greatest extent.
This is the best solution Lin Chong can think of now.
Seeing that Lin Chong kept his head down and silent, Yang Sanzhen thought that his words had hurt his self-esteem. He was afraid of being scolded when he went home. So he comforted him: "It's okay. This is your first time to come out on your own after all. Some things are not completely understood."
If you explain clearly that your father is also responsible, I believe he will not blame you."
