After the two entered the living room, Zhou Shun sat directly on the main seat, while Chen Guang knelt and sat on the seat where Xu Tian was originally sitting. (Apex Fiction hand-written novel)

After sitting down with each other, Zhou Shun looked at Chen Guang, who looked cautious, and said, "Has the surname Xu talked to you?"

"We've talked. And the price for crossing the river has been finalized, a total of fifty gold. Here is the hardware deposit." Chen Guang still looked cautious, took out the money bag from his arms, and handed it to Zhou Shun.

He didn't feel guilty about hiding the hardware just now.

After Zhou Shun took the money, he opened the bag and took a look, then threw it to Chen Guang.He said lightly: "Take it and distribute it to the people in the village."

"Give all the money to those fishermen?" Chen Guang asked a little puzzled.

According to his thinking, those fishermen can just dismiss them casually.Even giving some copper coins can make those fishermen happy for a long time.

"Don't worry about the little money, we have accumulated a lot of savings over the years. After this is done, we will abandon this poor place and go north to follow General Zhang." Zhou Shun rolled his eyes at Chen Guang lightly, and said .

It was just a faint look, but it made Chen Guang tremble all over, but he was very concerned about General Zhang in Zhou Shun's words.

"General Zhang?" Chen Guang asked with bright eyes.

"Yes, General Zhang." Zhou Shun said softly.

After Zhou Shun finished speaking, he ignored Chen Guang.Instead, he looked up and looked outside, thinking in his heart, something worth a thousand gold, plus his savings over the years.It's enough for me, Zhang Gui, Chen Guang and others to return to General Zhang's tent.

The next morning.

The fishermen in the village did not sail their boats to salvage fish and shrimps in the river as usual, but moored together by the river.However, the faces of the fishermen are not depressed, but with a little joy.

This morning, Chen Guang distributed the money to them. The whole hardware was almost equivalent to the whole village's income for a season.The fishermen will rejoice.

Zhou Shun was also pulling the boat on the shore. He was the head of the village. There were more than a dozen people in his family and four fishing boats.

However, Zhou Shun's face was not as happy as the fishermen in the village, but looked up at the sky from time to time, with a somewhat uncertain expression.

The appointed time has passed, but Liu Feng and the others did not see them put away their tents and come to cross the river.

"Go and ask the owner of the caravan if you want to cross the river today." Zhou Shun whispered to Chen Guangdao who was beside him.

"Yes." Chen Guang also waited anxiously, and nodded immediately upon hearing this.

However, before the fisherman started, the sound of hurried hooves sounded.It was Xu Tian who came here on horseback.

"My lord, that man is the owner of the caravan." Chen Guang took a look, and immediately whispered to Zhou Shun.

"The owner of the caravan? Maybe it's an official in the army." Zhou Shun's eyes flashed a trace of calmness, he took a few steps forward, went up to meet him and cupped his fists and said, "I wonder when Mr. Xu's caravan will leave?"

Xu Tian reined in the horse's reins and glanced at Zhou Shun.Feel unfamiliar, so there is no answer.

"This is our village chief. He had something to do last night, so he didn't discuss with Mr. Xu in person." Seeing this, Chen Guang hurriedly said.

"Oh, so you are Village Chief Zhou." Xu Tian raised his fist calmly, and said politely after seeing him.After a pause, he continued, "I'm here to inform the village chief that my caravan is not going to cross the river."

"Isn't this playing tricks on us?" Seeing the cooked duck flying away, Chen Guang couldn't bear it anymore, and said in a serious voice.

"I will pay the price for crossing the river." Xu Tian glanced at Chen Guang lightly, and said coldly.

When Chen Guang heard this, sweat immediately appeared on his forehead.If the price was paid face to face, wouldn't his greed for money be exposed on the spot?

According to Chen Guang's original plan, he would complete the transaction with Xu Tian alone, and then hand over the fifty gold to Zhou Shun.

However, Chen Guang also had quick eyes and quick hands. Before Xu Tian could say anything, he took a stride and pulled Xu Tian to the side.

"How do I pay the price?" Chen Guang asked urgently after the two walked a certain distance.

Chen Guang has also followed Zhou Shun for seven or eight years. When Zhou Shun was a military marquis under General Zhang's tent that day, he was the head of Zhou Shun's tent.Knowing that Zhou Shun is a man with deep scheming and vicious means, if he finds out that someone is greedy for ink, he will immediately use military law.

If he is exposed today, he will definitely not escape death.

"You come to my camp to get it." Of course Xu Tian didn't know what Chen Guang was thinking, so he replied flatly.

"Okay, I'll go with you." Chen Guang was overjoyed and said immediately.

After finishing speaking, Chen Guang hurriedly returned to Zhou Shun's side and explained the situation to Zhou Shun.

After Zhou Shun finished listening, his complexion froze.

He knew that Xu Tian and his group came here for the water pirates in Du Island.However, these people can be regarded as brave people with high skills, since Xu Tian has given the bait, they dare to rob him.

But only on the water.If Xu Tian didn't cross the river.Their chances of success will be much lower.

Zhou Shun only found it tricky.

Thinking about how to successfully plunder those pearls, Zhou Shun didn't care at all about the fifty gold ferry fee that Chen Guang said.

He just waved his hand and asked Chen Guang to get it.

Seeing Zhou Shun like this, Chen Guang was unspeakably happy, he clasped his fists at Zhou Shun, and followed Xu Tian to the camp where Liu Feng was stationed.

The big camp is not small, almost as big as the military camp in Xinye.The camp tents were also neatly tied up, and wooden fences were added around the perimeter.

After the two entered the camp, Xu Tian ordered a total of [-] gold pancakes for Chen Guang to take back.

Immediately, he got up and went to the big tent of the Chinese army.

In the big tent, Liu Feng sat quietly on the handsome seat, looking down at the bamboo slips in his hand.Hearing the movement outside, he couldn't help but raise his head.Seeing that it was Xu Tian, ​​he put down the bamboo slips and asked with a smile, "Did you give me the money?"

"Yes." Xu Tian also laughed and sat on Liu Feng's right.

"Ah, let's go. Let's go by land to Xiangyang. Let's see if this gang of water thieves will be robbed." Liu Feng cheered up and said with a smile.

"Promise." Xu Tian raised his fist in response.

Of course Liu Feng, Xu Tian and others knew how dangerous it was to fight water thieves on the water, and they had no intention of crossing the river in the first place.It's just a pretense.

In the end, they will still go overland, waiting for the gang of water thieves to rob them.

But doing so is tantamount to telling the gang of water thieves that we are the bait and we are ready to exterminate you.But so what, Liu Feng has always believed in Lida and let an honest farmer pick up a hoe to kill people.Similarly, if the benefits are huge, the gang of water thieves will also take risks.

that's enough.

Their caravan carried goods worth nearly two thousand gold.

A moment later, the horn sounded for the departure of the camp.

Under the dumbstruck eyes of the fishermen and village women around, this caravan paid a huge amount of money to cross the river like a fool, but changed its mind to the caravan traveling by land.Carelessly along the road to the south, heading towards Xiangyang.
