Chapter 46 Prepare for Action
Before dark, Zhao Quan called all the long-term workers together and waved his hand, like a general commanding thousands of troops.

Li Alian was ordered to go out and bring out an iron pot from the kitchen, with a big piece of fat meat boiled in it.

There was also a bamboo basket with freshly steamed snow-white steamed buns, the kind with five black handprints in one grab.

"I know everyone has been working hard recently. My wife specially rewarded this. Today we are all open to eating and cooking."

He picked up a jar of wine and patted it hard: "You see, this is the best soju. Let's eat and drink well."

Hearing Zhao Quan's voice, the long-term workers did not step forward. Instead, they stepped back and formed a circle with Zhao Quan.

"Zhao Tou, if you have any steamed buns, give me two steamed buns as a cushion." Brother Veteran said.

"Why don't you eat the fat steamed buns, but you want to eat steamed buns!" Zhao Quan said strangely.

"Nonsense, I'm not stupid. My wife usually digs someone to death. If a starving ghost passes in front of him, he will also pull off two bones." Old Soldier curled his lips and said: "This time it's steamed buns and fat meat, unexpectedly And wine…”

"You have to risk your life."

Wang Laoliu added slowly.

Zhao Quan glanced around, and the eyes of the long-term workers shone brightly.

He was a little annoyed. If the long-term workers couldn't manage him well, then he would have no prestige in his wife's mind.

"Bah, look at the way you are urinating. If you risk your lives, you deserve it." Zhao Quan said, "Eat, give it all to me."

Yang Liang walked through the crowd, picked up the steamed bun, and sandwiched two pieces of fat meat. The oil and water immediately squeezed out, and the white steamed bun turned into vermilion brown.

"Yes, that's right."

Zhao Quan showed a smile and said: "A Liang is still good, everyone should follow Yang Liang's example."

Everyone around looked at Yang Liang, swallowing their saliva as they looked at him enjoying his meal.

For long-term workers, the best meal in normal times is cooking with lard, but now they are greedy for a pot full of fat.

But everyone also understands in their hearts that the Niu family stall is in trouble, and the stall is in serious trouble. Everyone is just doing some work to earn some food, and there is no need to risk their lives for the Niu family.

"A Liang, wake up, can't you be confused?" Wang Laoliu advised.

Yang Liang's appetite is inherently large, and he usually eats less when he is full and more when he is hungry.

At this time, I opened my stomach and devoured it, and my eyes filled with tears.

This seems to be the first time that I have eaten so happily.

"Eat slowly, don't hold on."

Li Alian brought over a bowl of crude tea, and said with affection in her voice, "Drink some water and go with it."

"A-Liang, A-Liang..." Old Soldier advised.

Yang Liang waved his hand and said, "You still have to work even if you don't eat meat."

His words reminded everyone, yes, you have to work if you eat meat, and you still have to work if you don’t eat meat. You can’t escape this.

Of course, everyone has complete control over how they do their work.

You can work, but you can't fight for your life.

"exactly."

The veteran brother also spread his arms and said, "Everyone wants to eat. Let's eat together. I wouldn't even know I'm hungry if you didn't tell me."

A group of long-term workers started working together, and within a short time, a pot of fat meat was almost ready.

"Okay, good job everyone."

Zhao Quan gave some hoes and sticks to everyone: "Let's take a rest for a while and be active. We have big things to do tonight."

"Zhao Tou, what's going on?" Old Soldier asked.

"No need to worry, we'll find out in the evening."

Zhao Quan waved his hand. In fact, he didn't know what the specific matter was. He just hit wherever the landlord's mother-in-law pointed.

Yang Liang nestled in the hay house, biting straw, but his heart was in a state of confusion.

"A-Liang, why don't you go out and get some fresh air? Come on, Auntie will bring you some water." Li A-Lian came over with a copper pot, added a bowl of water to Yang Liang's bowl, and said in a low voice: "Tonight, be careful. "

After that, she left and didn't stay long.

Yang Liang's heart was even more confused. Li Alian's threats were meant to push him to a dead end.

Will she report on herself?

The needle in a woman's heart is sometimes even more unpredictable than a quantum meter, and no one can tell what she will do.

Otherwise, run away!
The thought came to Yang Liang's mind. The Niu family was in chaos tonight, so it might be the best opportunity to escape.

No one in the Niu family was asleep tonight. It was not easy to escape with a living person like Li Juhong.

However, he had been forced into a dead end, so he had no choice but to take risks.

It's not dark yet, so I can only wait until it gets dark before making plans.

……

The Niu Family Courtyard.

The landlady came out holding a cloth bag. After opening it, there were white silver, bank notes and some gold jewelry inside.

"The accumulation of several generations is all here. It's almost enough if it's not enough for 3000 taels."

The landlady's voice was already crying.

When Wang Hong saw the money, his eyes were already straight. He tried his best to make a calm expression and said: "Madam, if everything goes well, the money will come back."

"Master Wang is right."

Niu Bencai came out of the back room, holding another bag in his hand. The two bags looked exactly the same.

"Master Wang, look, can you tell the difference?"

"This is..." Wang Hong made a surprised expression.

Niu Bencai laughed and said: "One is true and the other is false. One contains stones and tiles, and the other contains gold, silver and jewelry. When the time comes, Master Wang, you can catch a carriage and show the bandits that the bag is real and give it to them." It was just stones and tiles.

As long as they see someone and ensure the safety of my third brother, the county's garrison camp will swarm up and capture the bandits on the spot. "

Wang Hong was stunned and couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said: "That's high!"

"Haha."

Niu Bencai smiled heartily: "We will start taking action as soon as the garrison camp arrives. Master Wang, do you want to find a helper and let him help you drive? I heard that there is a good long-term worker in the backyard named A Liang."

"A Liang is indeed good, I just ask Zhao Quan to tell him." The landowner said.

Niu Bencai nodded: "Then let's call him A Liang."

A few people were sitting in the hall. It was getting dark. There was no wind or moon tonight, and the night was dim.

Suddenly, Niu Bencai slapped his thigh and stood up.

"The cellar, the bandits escaped from the cellar. I haven't gone to take a look yet. Maybe I can find clues."

Wang Hong held the teacup in his hand and fell to the ground with a clatter.

"Ouch!"

"Master Wang, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, I meant to accompany you to the cellar."

"Just sit here with my mother and look at the money bag."

"Look what you said, just bring the bag with you."

Master Wang raised the money bag and patted it into Niu Bencai's arms: "It's not safe now, but be careful."

Niu Bencai nodded heavily: "Master Wang is really a careful person."

He weighed the money bag in his hand and sighed, "It's quite heavy."
