please make me king

Chapter 378 Complete the mission
Chen Taojin, the owner of the Baodu village, left the village and rushed to the east gate of the village.On one side of the east gate is a steep stone wall, and on the other side is a cliff that cannot be seen at a glance. There is only one winding path for passing.

Chen Taojin saw more than ten people surrounding him from a distance, so he rushed over with his subordinates.I saw that the leader was dressed in brocade clothes and jade belt, with a calm and dignified atmosphere, and at first glance he was a person of status.

He was followed by a dozen followers, holding knives and guns.And in front of him, there were two people who were tied up and bowed their heads.

One is a strong man with an attendant holding his three-foot-long waist knife; the other is a gray-bearded Taoist priest with an attendant holding his fly whisk.

Then Chen Taojin hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Who is it? How did you make a noise at the gate of my village?"

The leader cupped his hands and said: "My surname is Zhang, and my name is Dudu. I am a businessman who came to buy mountain goods. I was recommended by Mr. Lu of Sanchuan Ji. I came here to buy some 'yellow goods'!"

"It's just that I happened to meet these two people on the road, claiming that they were also the people who came to buy goods, so they wanted to go with me. I was puzzled, so I secretly listened to them and heard what they said, 'I caught my master's cronies',' This is Chen Taojin's words."

I knew that the rest were not good for the village owner, so I used Mongolian sweat medicine to anesthetize them, and gave them to the village owner Chen as a favor. "

That Chen Taojin believed three points when he heard the words, he was suspicious at first and suspected that Liu Yinggui was a ghost, but now that the so-called "Master Zhang" really sent someone to come, he needs to be careful.

It's just that Chen Taojin was still vigilant, and asked again: "Where is Lu Sanye's letter? Let me have a look!"

Hearing the words, the governor took out the letter from his pocket and ordered someone to pass it on.Chen Taojin opened it and saw that it was written by Mr. Lu.

I saw that it said:

Brother Chen, there are merchants from eastern Henan here. I have tried it out, and they are indeed genuine merchants.If you want to buy "yellow goods" from you, please contact us!

Only then did Chen Taojin feel relieved.As the saying goes, "rabbits don't eat grass beside their nests", although Chen Taojin, the owner of Baodu village, is vicious and difficult to provoke, he also has something to ask for.

Although the gold they mined from the gold mines was valuable, it could only be used if it was exchanged for silver taels or copper coins.

Although the gold in the Ming Dynasty was a precious metal, it was not a currency, and it could not be used to buy necessities in the cottage. Therefore, Chen Taojin somewhat had the honor of selling Mr. Lu.

After a long time, the two of them, one black and one white, cooperated effectively.If the last sentence of Lu Sanye's letter is "please contact me", it means that the visitor can be robbed and killed; if the last sentence of Lu Sanye's letter is "please contact me for service", it means that the visitor must not move up.

It turns out that there are many mountains and few fields in Lu's family, and the food and salt are the most scarce.Because of his accent, Song Xiance deliberately said that he was from Eastern Henan, but it touched the heartstrings of Mr. Lu.

There are many plains in eastern Henan, and there are no other specialties except grain.Nalu Sanye knew very well that he and other places were the most scarce in food, so he made up his mind to make more friends with some grain merchants.

Song Xiance and others not only coped well, but also saved their lives thanks to the inadvertently fabricated origin.

When Chen Taojin saw this letter, he felt relieved.Lu Sanye is an old man who has eaten more salt than he has eaten. His recommendation should be no problem.
After Chen Taojin took the "Reassurance Pill", he let Zhang Dudu and others in with a wave of his hand.

Zhang Dudu entered the village gate, approached Chen Taojin in a few steps, and asked in a low voice: "I want to buy so many 'yellow goods', does the village master have any goods?"

Chen Taojin was taken aback when he heard the words, and looked down, only to see that the governor was holding a shining dagger in his hand.Before he could react, Dudu Zhang just pushed the dagger forward and stabbed it in Chen Taojin's waist.

As soon as Zhang Dudu plunged in, he felt something was wrong, and quickly took two steps back.It turned out that Chen Taojin had suffered similar losses, and had already worn a set of chain mail under his clothes, just in case.

Zhang Dudu was stuck on the chain mail all of a sudden, and he had never done any meritorious service.Fortunately, Zhang Dudu, as a guard in Jinyi, is quite agile.

He hastily pulled the ropes on Song Xiance and Xiao Qinhu's body, the two people were tied with loose buckles, and they were pulled apart at once.Song Xiance and Xiao Qinhu quickly grabbed the weapons in their left and right hands and rushed over.

Chen Taojin was caught off guard, and quickly drew his waist knife to fight.Xiao Qinhu divided his waist knife into two swords, so that Wu's water couldn't get in, so he came to fight Chen Taojin.

As the saying goes, "Single swords look at the hand, two swords look away", Xiao Qinhu moved left and right on the edge of the cliff, and the Chen Taojin who hit him had no power to fight back.Chen Taojin was about to retreat, but he saw that Song Xiance came out from the slanting stab, Chen Taojin's head exploded with a single whisk, his brain collapsed, and he fell to the bottom of the cliff in convulsions.

The rest of the people were fighting with the minions in the cottage, and they couldn't help being overjoyed to see Chen Taojin dead.Song Xiance took advantage of the situation and shouted loudly: "The leader of the bandits is dead, and the rest of the descendants will not be killed!"

They were all mobs, relying on the advantages of the stronghold to domineering one side.Now that the boss is dead, how dare you resist?
Immediately, they dropped the knives, guns, bows and crossbows in their hands, and knelt down to beg for mercy.

Xiao Qinhu, Song Xiance and Zhang Dudu hurriedly led their men to the cottage, only to see that Liu Yinggui and the others were tied up in the side room, and there was no loss, so they were relieved.

Everyone saved Liu Yinggui with great difficulty, and Liu Yinggui cupped his hands and thanked him: "Thank you for your hard work. Fortunately, you came in time, so I can complete the task as soon as possible!"

The three of them were taken aback when they heard the words, but it was Song Xiance who reacted quickly.He slapped his thigh and said: "Well, you silly boy, but you have a lot of eyes. Could it be that you want to take this Baodu village, and you can't succeed as the master?"

Liu Yinggui smiled naively when he heard the words: "It's a coincidence that I took people to Sanchuanji to inquire, and accidentally leaked the itinerary, and was caught by this thief."

"I traveled along the way, and saw that the terrain here is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is a good place for first-class people. So I thought about it, and pretended that I was a confidant of a big family, and I could exchange a lot of silver. The thief really wanted to Yinliang, save my life, and report the matter to the lord."

"That's why I saved my life, and I was able to complete my lord's work after troublesome you all."

Zhang Dudu and Xiao Qinhu were a little embarrassed when they heard the words, so they had to bow their hands and said: "We just made a little trip along the way, and we didn't have any credit for it!"

Song Xiance patted Liu Yinggui when he heard the words, and said with a smile: "My boy, I've given your grandfather good looks. I was a dull gourd before, but now I've only been here for a few days, and I can speak well. You two don't have to be humble. If it’s a little bit farther, then I, an old man, am just playing lip service.”

The four of them laughed when they heard the words, and they had successfully completed their tasks.
