Tuan Chong Guai Guai: The whole family can listen to my voice
Chapter 253 The person who leads the way
Chapter 253 The person who leads the way
Lin Baoer's eyes widened in surprise. She didn't expect that Jiang Yuzhi came to them today because of this matter.
Lin Zhishen also had a subtle expression for a moment.
They couldn't find another caravan for a long time, and they were already planning to spend money to form a new caravan. It was not easy to build a new caravan, but there were very few people who were familiar with the desert terrain.
Those who are not proficient in the terrain are digging their own graves, while those who are proficient in terrain have already been dug up by the trading companies, and their turn will not be available at all.
It's not like they didn't go to the trading company to ask, but the company's reply was that all the team leaders who were familiar with the desert terrain had joined each caravan, and there was really no one else.
Either they would go into the desert alone, or they could only wait for the last caravan to return.
But how could they wait so long?
It's not like no one among them discovered their purpose and came here pretending to be there, but they were all exposed by Lin Zhishen and driven away.
Lin Zhishen had at least traveled through the desert several times. Although he was not very familiar with the terrain inside, he still remembered many of the iconic things inside clearly. Just a few questions left those people speechless. Lies are broken without attack.
Just when they were at their wits' end, Jiang Yuzhi suddenly brought them the news. They were surprised and couldn't help but wonder, was this person also deliberately defrauding money under the guise?
In just a moment, Lin Baoer felt a lot better. She hesitated for a while, then asked carefully: "Miss Jiang, are you sure? What if..."
She saw that the man was so thin that he really didn't look like he could cross the dangerous desert. Moreover, he was lame. Although she was not discriminating, the injury to his foot would greatly hamper his ability to cross the desert, right?
Thinking that she didn't believe it, Jiang Yuzhi was a little anxious and hurriedly explained: "Miss Lin, don't worry, he is definitely not a liar! Before I found him, I went to confirm that he was indeed the leader of a caravan before, but However, during a certain operation, they had an accident. Only three people in the group of more than ten people survived. He was one of them. His foot was also injured at that time. Since then, he has voluntarily quit the caravan. Out of sight.”
Lin Baoer: "..."
Hearing this makes you more worried, okay?
Jiang Yuzhi hesitated a little, "I traveled to many places in the past two days, but I only found him. He also spent a lot of money before he agreed to meet me."
Hearing this, Lin Baoer's expression softened and he sighed softly.
After all, Jiang Yuzhi is like this because of them...
"Don't rush to conclusions yet, ask first before speaking." Lin Zhishen said thoughtfully.
Lin Baoer nodded.
At this time, the man also walked out of the inner room. I wonder if he heard what they said.
"You can ask whatever you want to ask? You only have a quarter of an hour." He looked a little impatient and expressionless, as if he was forced to do this.
Lin Baoer frowned at his attitude, but she could only suppress her displeasure and said seriously, "Master Yu, just now did Yuzhi say that you used to be in a caravan and are familiar with all the terrain in the desert?"
This was the first time he heard his name from Lin Baoer's mouth. It seemed very intimate, which made Jiang Yuzhi very stunned.
From Lin Baoer's perspective, she just didn't want to expose their unfamiliar relationship with Jiang Yuzhi in front of outsiders, so as not to let others take advantage of the situation and do something wrong.
From Jiang Yu's mouth, they learned that this man's name was Yu Sheng. Yu Sheng didn't even raise his eyes and gave a faint "hmm", confirming what she asked.
"I heard that the reason you left the caravan was because of an accident. Only three people came back from the desert alive. What happened?"
Yu Sheng pulled his lips sarcastically, finally raised his eyes to look at Lin Baoer, and sarcastically said, "Are you here to dig up my past?"
Lin Zhishen frowned, didn't say much, and just threw a bag of money on the table.
This purse is heavy, containing at least fifty taels of silver.
Seeing the money bag, Yu Sheng's pupils shrank, and then he put the money bag into his arms calmly, and said seriously, "Tell me everything you know."
Later, through Lin Baoer's persistent questioning, they learned the truth about Yu Sheng's departure from the caravan at that time.
Yu Sheng had a sister named Yu Huai. Unfortunately, Yu Huai was born with a weak constitution and could only survive with medicine. However, their parents died young, so this burden fell on Yu Sheng's shoulders.
Fortunately, Yu Sheng grew up in Huangsha City and went to the desert once because of his parents. Later, because Yu Huai fell ill and needed a lot of money, he decided to take a wrong approach.
At that time, before the two countries were connected, there were many traveling and foreign merchants traveling to and from Huangsha City. However, due to the desert, the merchants who came and went suffered heavy losses every time, and many died and were injured. , there are many doctor's clinics in Huangsha City, which is caused by this phenomenon.
For the rest of his life, he found a way to make money from it. With his passion, he went deep into the desert alone several times, and with desperate energy, he drew the road in the desert into a map and remembered it in his heart.
From then on, whenever someone wanted to cross the desert, he would recommend himself and have people pay him to hire him. Over time, his name was sold to several surrounding cities. On the contrary, traveling merchants who wanted to cross the desert would come to him by name. .
He also made a lot of money, which he used to treat his sick sister.
Later, the two countries formed a good relationship, and more and more people traveled between the two countries. Many people were also jealous of this job, so they followed Yu Sheng's approach and became familiar with the desert and became the person who led the way.
This method of making money requires a tough life. If you don't have a tough life, you may lose your life while crossing the desert.
Therefore, this is also the reason why even if a complete trading company is established now, such team leaders are rare.
Just when Yu Sheng was prospering, three years ago, his sister's condition suddenly worsened and she was spending money like water. The family's savings were about to be spent. Yu Sheng couldn't care about anything else and could only continue to take care of her day and night. An errand across the desert.
And that's when the accident happened.
They were a group of fifteen people, formed by a young man from a rich family. Because the young man wanted to visit other countries, he asked Yu Sheng to be the team leader.
It was fine at first, but Yu Sheng relied on his own experience to avoid dangerous areas many times. Just as he was about to leave the desert, he suddenly encountered a group of bandits.
In the past, all you had to do was get money to get rid of the disaster, but this time, for some reason, the rich man seemed to be possessed. He just refused to give the money, and even let his thugs fight with the gangsters. A life or death.
During the fight, a sandstorm suddenly struck. He screamed and ran, but it was too late. The sandstorm soon swept everyone, including him.
When he woke up, he found that one of his legs was bleeding profusely, and the others had long disappeared.
