Chapter 143
Pull out the bamboo poles, put them together, and fix them with hemp ropes. The slaves take off the mats they are carrying, open them, and put them on the shelves built by the bamboo poles, and the simple tents are formed.

The slaves were assigned to each other, and they rested in a simple "tent" outside the Jiang family's vehicle!

Although it was just a simple shed, they were surprised that the Jiang family was willing to spend the space of their own ox cart to help the slaves transport the things used to build the tent.

What's more, these slaves still have mats to sleep on, and there are things like jerky in their evening meals?
The seven sons of the Mo family felt that the Jiang family was the most caring family they had ever seen.

At the end of the day's rush, Jiang Anrao and other members of the Jiang family rested in the carriage in the evening. Jiang Chiyu arranged for the generals to take turns on duty at night to ensure the safety of the team at night.

Have a safe night.

On the second day, the team set off at dawn, and did not stop until Chen Shi to rest.

The place where the team rests is chosen to have a water source nearby.There are still some traces of human activities in this place. I think other people passed by here before Jiang's team and rested here.

At this time, it has already left the scope of the city of Song Dynasty, and there are not many pedestrians and teams on the road.After the Jiang family rested, they continued to organize the team and set off.

The land area of ​​the Song Kingdom is relatively small among the countries, and most of them live in the inland plains. If the road is straight all the way, then it will be very fast to reach Daliang, but the road conditions are not good at this time, and many places do not even have official roads. They were all trampled by businessmen and pedestrians.

Coupled with the overgrown trees, it will affect the speed of travel more or less.

The second day passed safely.On the third day, the Jiang family still set off early and left the Song Dynasty smoothly all the way to the Song Wei border.

It is said that it is called Sanshan Pass by the people nearby.Probably because there are several mountains nearby, the mountains are not high, but the mountains are densely forested and the roads down the mountain are rugged, and the road people take passes through the mountains.Hence the name.

Jiang Xi ordered from here to be more careful when walking, the team tightened up, pay attention to observe both sides, and walked for half an hour. At this time, the road explorer in front suddenly reported that there was a big tree blocking the road ahead.

Jiang Xi immediately ordered the team to stop.

He walked to the fallen trees and suddenly shouted to the dense forest not far away: "Friends ahead, we are Beibo City, Jiang's caravan, going to Daliang to sell grain!" Yes, it’s a small business, and I hope that you will do me a favor and let me pass by! I have a small gift for you!”

Shang You quickly rushed to Jiang Xi's side.Jiang Chiyu made sign language, and the generals raised their crossbows and bows one after another, fully alert.

All the people in the live broadcast room, who were bored watching on the way, all became energetic at this moment, and some people had already guessed what was going on.

Light up the lamp and watch the sword: Did the An'an family encounter bandits who robbed their way?
Overwhelming country and city: Wow, I opened this mountain and planted this tree. If I want to pass by here, I will save money to buy roads!

I really can't think about it: who is so overwhelmed that he dares to rob An An's team?

Chaohuaxishi: It's hard to say, if a bandit really makes a living by robbery, he must have a certain force value.No matter how powerful An'an's family is, they can't hold back because there are too many people and goods to protect.

If there is a real fight, maybe there will be some kind of loss!

Jiang Anrao's family didn't have the energy to care what the people in the live broadcast room said.At this moment, Jiang Chiyu told the people to hide in the carriage and not come out.The slaves should not move around and hide on the side of the carriage or bullock cart away from the big tree blocking the road.

Mother Jiang, grandfather Jiang and father are all together at this time, and Wang Yun is not far from them, but it's okay, Jiang Chiyu can rest assured.

After thinking for a while, he said something to Jiang's father, and then went to Jiang Xi's side.Seeing this, Jiang Anrao also followed.

Seeing the two of them approaching, Jiang Xi was a little nervous, but she first spoke to comfort her:
"Don't worry, there have always been bandits and bandits on the Wei and Song borders. These bandits are not too big. Although most of them are skilled in bows and horses, they are very difficult to deal with. The Wei State has repeatedly sent troops to encircle and suppress them. They don’t kill all the ordinary caravans. As long as they report the name of the caravan and pay tribute, they will let the caravan pass, and most of the time they will not hurt anyone.”

Jiang Anrao was not surprised that there would be bandits blocking the way. After all, in this troubled world, a country is wiped out from time to time, leaving many people displaced and homeless.These people have no support, so they have to occupy the mountain as bandits, which is also a helpless move.

If it's true what Jiang Xi said, these bandits can keep their word and don't kill innocent people indiscriminately, it's not too bad.

If you can avoid conflicts and pass this road safely, it is not unacceptable to spend some money.

Jiang Xi explained to Jiang An and Jiang Chiyu, and then yelled the words just now to the forest.

After a while, there were rustling footsteps in the forest.

Jiang Anrao looked over with all his eyesight, and found that the people who came out were all young and strong men, there were more than a dozen of them.

The first person is dark complexion, strong and strong, with eyes shining.The man looked at the appearance of the Jiang family's team, obviously a little surprised by the momentum of the caravan's generals.

But maybe because of his confidence in his own strength, the strong black man still led someone out to confront Jiang Xi.

Seeing this, Jiang Xi saluted and said:
"The caravan we are waiting for is just a small business, and I hope you will let us go there."

The black and strong man looked at it and asked, "Are you a caravan from Song?"

Jiang Xi said, "Exactly! The Jiang's caravan is going to Daliang to sell grain,"

"Where's the seal?" the bandit asked.

There is no perfect household registration system in this era, and because of the war, the number of floating population is very large, so traveling between countries, unless they are envoys of the two countries, ordinary people do not have any formal customs clearance documents.

But in the world, anyone with an identity will have a certificate like a seal.After all, there are few people who can read and write in this era, and there are also few people who can engrave seals.The pattern of the seal is not drawn casually, and generally contains information such as the family totem and surname.

Most of those who can read and write are of noble origin, so those who can carry seals with them are mostly nobles.Those who are capable of running a caravan cannot be ordinary people.So the bandit asked this question.

"Here." Jiang Xi hurriedly took out something like a seal, and took out a silk bag from his bosom, as if to give it to the black and strong man, "There is still some money here, to buy wine for the strong men?"

The black and strong man was silent for a moment, then raised his chin.He saw a man walking towards him, and the two slowly walked towards Jiang Xi together.

The man first looked at Jiang Xi's seal.Then he nodded to the black and strong man.Seeing this, the strong black man took the bag from Jiang Xi's hand and weighed it, it was not light.

After looking at the Jiang family's carriage and ox cart, the strong black man opened the drawstring of the bag and took a look inside. It was full of coins such as knives, coins and cloth coins.

The black and strong man showed satisfaction.
