Chapter 114: Bad Water
For half a month, Yu Liang took people to three intersections in Qingyuan County to set up porridge stands, and there were ready-made soups.

One after another, more than 600 people were brought back.

The cottage is very busy.

Wan Jinlan divided the open space of the back mountain into areas, and arranged people to the innermost side of the north, while the young and strong in training leaned against the mountain pass, and the space of nearly [-] mu was enough, and it was specially paved. There is a martial arts arena with regular archery targets.

It takes a lot of medicinal materials, coal and food every day. Wan Jinlan has calculated that the money in their hands can last for more than a year, but after a year, they will have to worry about money.

During this period, everyone got news again that it was the Third Prince Xiao Minghuan who came to deliver the military pay and rations.

The imperial convoy escorting grain and grass had already entered Liangzhou territory, and the name of the third prince Xiao Minghuan was widely spread.

The four counties of Liangzhou have a very long border with Beiman from west to east. The Helan and Bacha tribes are now mainly attacking the border towns of Ganzhou County and Jinquan County.Xiao Minghuan and the Thousand Imperial Army had just entered Liangzhou County, and it would take a long time to transport the food supplies to Jinquan and Ganzhou.

At this time, there were only Wan Jinlan and Xiao Feng in the room, and it was rare for them to have lunch together.

After eating, she picked up the map, pointed to the locations of Yixin County, Qingyuan County, and An County, and looked at Xiao Feng, "I really didn't want to grab the military salary, but the person who came to deliver the military salary was Xiao Minghuan, and I really don’t want him to come to Liangzhou to earn merit.”

Since Xiao Minghuan was able to get this errand, at least it shows that the emperor reuses him now, but he doesn't know whether he really reuses him or pretends to reuse him.

I don't know what happened to King Shun who "has no bones left". King Guangling was captured by King Su and should be escorted back to Kyoto.

Liangzhou is far away from the emperor, so the situation outside is closed to the outside world after all.

Xiao Feng looked at her, his eyelashes slightly lifted, "Do you have a problem with Xiao Minghuan?"

Wan Jinlan paused, "He once calculated that I wanted to marry me as a holiday?"

Xiao Feng's facial expression changed slightly, and there was a faint glint when his eyelashes drooped.

After pondering for a while, he said: "We might as well use our strength to fight."

Wan Jinlan was taken aback, "How can I borrow it?"

Xiao Feng's finger pointed to the location of Mang Mountain on the map.

Wan Jinlan's eyes lit up.

Yeah yeah.

The iron ore in Mang Mountain is a sweet pastry, but for those who have no foundation, it is also a hot potato, and if they don't pay attention, they will burn themselves to death.The most important thing is that in Qingyuan County, they will be made to be wary.

If Xiao Minghuan, who came with a thousand forbidden troops, was robbed by the horse bandits from Mangshan Mountain, would Xiao Minghuan swallow his breath?
If he insisted on bringing a thousand imperial troops to suppress the bandits and get back the looted military supplies, he would definitely confront the real master behind Mangshan Mountain.

They can also take the opportunity to see who the real master behind Mangshan is.

As for the outcome of the confrontation between Xiao Minghuan and the local snake in Liangzhou, what does it matter to them?
Wan Jinlan almost beamed with joy.

"Then, shall we rob the military pay for real or fake?" The money in their hands will not be enough in the future.

Xiao Feng said: "This time we can't show up, and the salary and food can't be moved for the time being. This matter has to be handled by Wang Shu."

The two went to the study, and after a while, Xiao Hua called Xia Feng, Wang Shu, and Li Dazhuang in.

Li Dazhuang was ordered to take the horse bandits who were familiar with the road conditions to investigate the situation of Xiao Minghuan and the imperial army.

Wang Shu went to the gambling house to try to instigate the brother-in-law of Mangshan Wu's family.

The group of horse bandits from the head of Wu's family guarded Mang Mountain, and occasionally went to plunder the village, just to cover the iron mine and let people avoid that area.

Wu's brother-in-law, Peng Lin, has been addicted to gambling for the past six months. Wang Shu knows the manager in the gambling shop, and knows that he has lost a lot recently and can't afford it.

Peng Lin himself didn't live up to it. On weekdays, the head of the Wu family just guarded the iron mines in Mangshan Mountain, and occasionally took horse bandits out to plunder to scare the surrounding area.

Xia Feng looked at Xiao Feng: "Boss, last time you entered Mang Mountain at night, were those horse bandits used as miners?"

Xiao Feng knew that he wanted to ask if all the horse bandits knew that they were guarding the iron mine.

Xiao Feng nodded slightly, "I'm afraid it's because there's a lot of movement in the mining at night, otherwise I wouldn't know there's something tricky in it, and go deep inside to investigate."

The group of horse bandits has been guarding the outside for a long time, and they spend their days there, how can they not hear the movement inside?
Xia Feng frowned, "This is not easy."

If the group of horse bandits were working together, how could Peng Lin move them?
Xiao Feng said: "Take advantage of it."

Xia Feng rolled his eyes and hooked his hands to ask Wang Shu to come and listen.

After saying something, Wan Jinlan chuckled, "You really don't look like a scholar with such a bad stomach."

Xia Feng's face was a little red.

Wang Shu stood up against Xia Feng and said, "My father is also a scholar. He is so poor because he is too honest. In winter, he fell into the river and froze to death just to get me a bite to eat. No matter how despicable the method is, as long as it works."

Xia Feng was a little annoyed, "You are despicable!" Can the dog-headed military master speak?

Wan Jinlan and Li Dazhuang laughed, Wang Shu shrank his neck, and the bookishness on his body immediately became a little wretched.

In the two courtyards connected behind a brothel named Changlefang in Gu'a Town, Peng Lin, who had been sitting on the gambling table for two days and two nights without sleep and his eyes were bloodshot, was thrown out the back door.

"The surname Peng wants to come to play again, and pay back the previous debt!"

Peng Lin got up on the ground, his eyes were fierce, "Do you know who my brother-in-law is?"

The person who threw him out said, "It's useless for you to move your brother-in-law here. It's not that I didn't give you face before, and your face has long been used up! If you are sensible, go back and raise money! Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude." .”

After the back door was closed mercilessly, Peng Lin spit out a mouthful of bloody saliva, and limped towards his home in the town.

Before he walked out of the alley, Peng Lin, who was already dizzy, was trapped by a sack that fell from the sky.

In the darkness, Wang Shu and Li Mazi carried Peng Lin to the dense forest behind the residential area with their faces covered.

First he was punched and kicked, then Peng Lin screamed again and again, from cursing angrily at the beginning to begging for mercy.

"Forgive me, strong man, my brother-in-law is..."

Wang Shu took his words back, "The owner of our Changle Square knows who your brother-in-law is, don't use his name to deceive you every day, your brother-in-law doesn't care about you, if you do, how can you have no money!"

After Wang Shu finished speaking, the stick in his hand dropped, "How much silver do you owe our boss, since you don't want to come back, it's better to be you!"

Peng Lin was startled, and the crap was blown under one stick after another.

"I'll pay it back, I'll pay it back! I'll definitely pay it back!"

Wang Shu's stick stopped.

"Our boss pointed out a clear way for you. Recently, people from the imperial court are coming to deliver military pay and rations. If you can snatch it, pay back our boss's debt, and you will still be friends in the future."

Peng Lin sniveled and burst into tears. He had heard rumors in gambling houses before, but how could things from the imperial court be so easy to grab?
"I am single-handedly, robbing the army pay is a dead end."

Li Mazi kicked up, and said in a rough voice: "Aren't you stupid! The surname Wu doesn't care about you, you won't drag his brothers to do it together, snatch it, plant it on Mangshan Mountain, and return the money!" After giving it to our master, you will either hide or fly away after dividing the bill!"

Peng Lin's eyes lit up in the sack!
Yeah yeah.

He once thought of robbing the army's salary, but he had no one in his hands.

If he ran away after finishing the work, and could throw the stall out, the brothers under his brother-in-law would definitely follow him for the sake of money!
