Chapter 277
salt lake?

This was a pleasant surprise.

However, Ren Ning twitched his mouth, "Nonsense. You didn't find any private salt in your goods."

Matthew said in distress, "It's not that I don't want to take it, but I don't have time to take it."

Not long after his caravan returned to the Principality of Langston from Xiliang, the war between the principalities of Beixiong broke out.

Before Matthew even got together with his family for a few days, he was forced by Duke Langston's men with a knife to set foot on the road to the south again.

And when is there time to sneak some private salt into the goods?

Lei Er suddenly realized: "It turns out that you are the guide of Duke Langston's journey to the south, no wonder you are caught in their vanguard."

"That's even more damnable!" Ximo over there said in a gloomy voice.

Without Matthew as a guide, maybe his people are still alive in this world.

"I'm sorry," Matthew begged for mercy with a sad face, "I didn't expect Viscount Andrea's men to be so cruel and merciless, just..."

Massacre.

Ren Ning seemed to have never heard of it.

He looked up at the northern sky, and suddenly turned around and called, "Tie Le."

The brother-in-law didn't care about the smell of corpses all over his body, and hurried over: "What's the matter?"

Ren Ning pointed to the boxes that were dug out: "Distribute the ordnance to the brothers under your command, and replace the wood in their hands. Send all the others back to Kailun."

"Great!" Tie Le beamed happily.

Kailun moved thousands of miles from the east to the Desert of No Return, and now his money is bare.

With so many goods, at least it will last for a while.

He is also very good at being a man, first waved to Gu Datou and the others: "Many brothers in the Eighth Battalion have broken equipment. Let them pick first."

The soldiers of the Eighth Battalion were not polite, and after Ren Ning nodded, they came up one after another to choose weapons and equipment suitable for them.

Not long after, they changed into new equipment one by one, and returned with a smile.

Even so, they were full of pickiness: "Beixiong's stuff is so rough, it's really 01:30 worse than our Yunchui's."

Tie Le couldn't laugh or cry, and let his subordinates pick and choose, and almost took all the ordnance before giving up.

Matthew's life was still in the hands of others, and he didn't dare to make a sound. In the end, he could only watch helplessly as the Kailun people rushed over and happily took their camels and left.

"Everyone, speed up." Ren Ning raised his voice: "Bury Luoxi's brothers and sisters, we still have things to do!"

The crowd cheered.

Someone yelled loudly: "Young master, do you want to chase up and kill those escaped Beixiong dogs?"

The others were moved and their ears were pricked up.

Ren Ning turned around: "The army of Grand Duke Langston killed so many innocent brothers and sisters of Luoxi, and committed a heinous crime. We will never let them go."

hum!
Everyone was overjoyed immediately.

"That's right, never let them go."

"It's only right to kill people for their lives. Even if we escape to Tianya Promontory, we will find them to avenge Luoxi's brothers and sisters!"

……

Ren Ning nodded, "Revenge must be avenged."

"But brothers, have you ever thought about why our brothers Kai Lun and Luo Xi fled here from their distant hometowns, and still cannot escape the fate of being killed?"

"Kailun's hometown is like this, and so is Luoxi in front of me. They are all in ruins now. What is the reason for all this?"

All around suddenly became quiet.

Everyone including Chi Tie Le and Xi Mo blushed, and couldn't help raising their heads to look at the tall and straight figure in front of them.

Ren Ning continued: "Is the Benlu tribe too vicious? Or is it that the royal court of Xiliang regards everyone as nothing, and destroys the entire tribe as long as they don't obey the order of the grassland king. In the end, we were forced to move our family and cannot return home ?”

"Or maybe the men of Grand Duke Langston are too cruel, and they will kill without asking 21 after they come?"

Boom!
Ren Ning stomped heavily on the ground under his feet, "These reasons can be said to be true, but they can also be said not to be true."

He didn't wait for everyone to speak, and continued: "The reason for saying yes is indeed because the royal court is strong, and all small and medium tribes who do not obey orders can only be destroyed. At the same time, it is also because of the brutality of Duke Langston's troops, so Luoxi There are only a few left now."

"but!"

Ren Ning shook his head: "It can also be said that these are not all the reasons for what happened."

Everyone looked at each other.

Someone couldn't help but say: "What is the reason?"

"Good question!" Ren Ning said in a deep voice, "The real reason is that we are too weak."

"So weak that anyone can handle it at will, and anyone can kill at will."

"If we are strong enough, so strong that everyone is afraid and afraid. Then no one will dare to kill casually, and drive away as soon as they want."

There was a buzzing in everyone's mind.

After a while, Tie Le stood up straight: "That's right. Asking others is worse than asking ourselves. Instead of asking others to let us go, it's better for us to become stronger so that they don't dare to mess with us again."

"Being strong is not for ourselves, but for our future generations. They can no longer be driven around like us, and worry from time to time whether they will see the sun tomorrow."

"That's right! Young Master is right." Alun Youmeng and the others looked at each other and echoed, "We have had enough. Our children can no longer live like this."

"Uncle, tell me how to become stronger. We all listen to you."

"Yes. If it weren't for my uncle, let alone the victory just now, the Beixiong people might have already killed our tribe."

……

Amid all the commotion, Ren Ning pressed his hands.

"To be strong. The tribe has to have people and money, and at the same time have a strong team to guard it all."

Ugh.

There were sighs everywhere, "The team has been practicing, and we are not afraid of death when we fight. It's just that this is a place where there is no desert and no bird shit. Where do we get money and people?"

Ren Ning waved his hand: "Don't worry."

Now the three big countries of Yunchui, Xiliang and Beixiong are in turmoil everywhere, and the people are hiding in peaceful places.As long as they can guarantee stability, if the news spreads, the number of people will rise sooner or later.

"One more person means more strength. Therefore, I hope that everyone will not look at where the other party comes from or what tribe they come from. As long as they sincerely seek refuge, we welcome them all."

Everyone in Karen nodded.

Their ancestors had the habit of intermarrying with Yunchui, and they never cared much about their race or skin color.

"But we must also pay attention to the screening." Ren Ning reminded, "We don't want that kind of sloppy."

People like those who immediately surrendered to Ben Lu as soon as Kai Lun had an accident, and even attacked Kai Lun in reverse, absolutely cannot.

"Understood." Tiele and the others nodded.

"As for the money." Ren Ning smiled: "First of all, everyone needs to raise more horses. Now there are wars everywhere, as long as the horses are bred, there will be no worries about selling them."

While talking, he pointed to Matthew who was listening intently: "At the same time, I have to ask this horse merchant."

"Me?" Matthew pointed to himself inexplicably.

He quickly realized, "You mean the Great Salt Lake?"

"Is the salt lake real?" Lei Er narrowed his eyes dangerously.

As long as Matthew hesitated a little, his big knife was guaranteed to strike.

"Of course it's true." Matthew was so frightened that his hairs stood up. "It's a huge salt lake. I can guarantee that even if it is mined for 1000 years, it will never dry up."

The question is how to ship it out and sell it.

"As long as the Salt Lake is real." Ren Ning smiled: "It's still the same sentence, now is a good time to make a fortune."

The Desert of No Return is sandwiched between Xiliang and Beixiong, and they have a certain foundation in Yunchui.It is a good choice no matter which country the private salt is shipped to.

"So you want me to join?" Matthew stroked his chin, his eyes flickering.

"You won't join?" Lei Er stared at him.

Matthew burst into tears, and only then did he realize what it means to be a knife and a fish to me.

He wiped his sweat and nodded decisively: "Join!"

They are all making money to support their families, who are they running for?
"Very good." Ren Ning nodded with satisfaction.

He pointed to the hill to the south of the ruins: "Everyone hurry up and work. After burying Luoxi's brothers and sisters, go to that hill and dig a sand bunker."

At this time, the wind was blowing.The sky is getting grayer in the north.

A sandstorm is coming.
