Back to Datang with weapons

Chapter 77 There Are Bandits

"What? You decided to go to Taizhou?"

Chen Qiaoxi looked at Zhang Twelve and Lu Fujing in disbelief. These two people had never been able to get along well. If they went out together, wouldn't that upset the sky?
Or Zhang Twelve was unilaterally beaten...

"Auntie, the Lu family's turbid wine is out of stock now. If this problem is not resolved as soon as possible, the business of the Lu family restaurant that has just recovered may be wiped out again."

"I know, but the mountains in Taizhou are high and the roads are far away, and you have never traveled far. How can you rest assured at home?"

Chen Qiaoxi held Lu Fujing's hand and said with a worried face.

Zhang Twelve knew that it was time for him, a man, to appear on the stage. "Haha", he said with a smile: "Miss Chen, you don't have to worry about that, don't you still have me? Just leave it to me to protect the eldest lady!"

He didn't forget to pat his chest as he spoke.

In fact, Zhang Twelve really wanted to go to Taizhou. In addition to enjoying the scenery of the Tang Dynasty, he also wanted to see what kind of tricks Qin Dayou was going to play.

With Zhang Twelve's current lightness skills and his arsenal, the average person is really not enough for him, so he can't wait to meet some bandits and bandits when he goes out, just to test his combat effectiveness. How strong!

But after listening to his words, Chen Qiaoxi and Lu Fujing tilted their heads and looked at him in unison, their eyes were full of contempt, then turned their heads at the same time, and continued talking...

Zhang Twelve felt that his dignity had been critically hit by [-] points, and he said dissatisfiedly: "What kind of expression do you guys have? Do you look down on me so much? I am very powerful, okay?"

Chen Qiaoxi tilted her head again, nodded and said, "Well, writing poetry is very good."

"It's also great at making spirits."

Lu Fujing added.

This—isn't it still the meaning of looking down on him!

Suddenly, Zhang Twelve didn't want to chat with these two wives anymore, it hurt his self-esteem.

…………

Although worried and reluctant, Lu Fujing and Zhang Twelve's going to Taizhou was still decided.

The five restaurants in the Lu family now need twelve catties of spirits every day, and the Lu family has already made nearly three hundred catties of spirits—that is to say, even if Lu Fujing and Zhang Twelve went out for a month, the Lu family’s spirits would still be the same. The wine stock is also completely sufficient.

And the business of Lu's restaurants is already on the right track, so even if Lu Fujing is not around, she believes that the shopkeepers of each restaurant can manage well, and it will be fine to check the accounts when she comes back.

So at least during this period of time, there is no need to worry about the business of the restaurant, which is why Lu Fujing dared to leave at ease.

Of course, the two of them were not the only ones in Taizhou. After all, Lu Fujing was a girl, so she brought a tall maid named Qiuping, while Zhang Twelve picked Lu San to follow him.

Lu San had never been out of Liangzhou, so he was very excited to go to Taizhou with Zhang Twelve this time, and he was grateful for Zhang Twelve's promotion in his heart.

…………

Without further ado, the next morning, Lu Fujing and Zhang Twelve packed up and saluted and were ready to set off.

Outside the gate of the Lu residence, a carriage was parked on the street, and people from the Lu residence had already surrounded the carriage.

"Fu Jing, based on my experience, Yu Haojie may have heard about our spirits business, so he naturally knows the price of five taels a catty. So he broke the contract this time, and he probably wants to raise the price. So if you talk about it, you can raise the price of [-] Wen first, and you have to take care of the follow-up situation—but the maximum should not exceed [-] Wen."

After all, Lu Ziliang had traveled the rivers and lakes for many years, so after hearing Yu Haojie's letter, he guessed about what had happened these days, so he gave Lu Fujing the last order beside the carriage.

Lu Fujing nodded, feeling a little nervous.After all, she had never traveled far, and thinking of the arduous task of going to Taizhou this time, she felt a little unsure.

However, he glanced at the relaxed Zhang Twelve next to him, and for some reason, he became inexplicably relaxed again.

Lu Ziliang and Chen Shi asked Zhang Twelve to take care of Lu Fujing on the road, and Zhang Twelve naturally agreed.

Chen Qiaoxi thought that in the future, he would suddenly be absent from her side, and she felt empty in her heart. There were so many things she wanted to say to him at the moment, but when she opened her mouth, she couldn't say anything, she just told him The sentence "Take care of yourself on the road and be more careful" is gone.

Under the watchful eyes of a group of people, Lu San drove the three of them away slowly in a carriage...

At the same time, the hall of the Qin Mansion.

A boy was reporting something to Qin Dayou.

"Several people?"

"Four people, besides Ms. Lu and Zhang Twelve, there is also a servant girl and a chauffeur."

"good very good."

Qin Dayou squinted his eyes, his face was full of complacency.

"Is everyone ready?"

"Back to the master, everything has been arranged."

"Hehe, let's wait and see the good show..."

…………

Although Liangzhou City is not big, the streets are full of pedestrians, and the speed of the carriage cannot be raised. It took two hours to walk in the city before leaving Liangzhou City.

From Liangzhou, I walked a long road, and then there was a small road between mountains and forests.

Lifting the curtain of the carriage and looking at the dangerous mountains on both sides of the path, sitting in the carriage and staring at the one-meter-long iron box, Zhang Twelve said in a teasing tone: "This kind of place will There won't be bandits and bandits?"

Because he guessed that Yu Haojie might want to sit on the ground to raise the price this time, before leaving, Lu Ziliang prepared 500 taels of silver for them, locked it in an iron box and carried it on the carriage.

Lu Fujing gave Zhang Twelve a disgusted look, and didn't bother to pay attention to him, but the maid named Qiuping was more lively, the young lady didn't like to talk, but she was suffocated.

Now that Zhang Twelve was looking for a topic, she quickly picked up: "Mr. Zhang, don't scare people. If there is such a bandit in the wilderness, it's just the four of us. How scary!"

Zhang Twelve said with a "hehe" smile, "That's not certain, look at our car, if you want silver taels, you want beautiful women—" He looked at Lu Fujing again, although his face was stinky, but he couldn't. Deny, people are still beautiful!
"So, even if there are robbers, it's not uncommon for us to rob money or sex, we have a lot of them, haha!"

After finishing speaking, Zhang Twelve burst out laughing again.

"Master Zhang, you are really bad, I hope your words are not too accurate—"

"Hiss law~~"

As soon as Qiuping's maid finished speaking, she heard a scream from the horse outside the carriage, and then stopped.

Zhang Twelve hurriedly lifted the curtain of the car and looked out, only to see five or six tall, burly men holding long knives and masked in black standing on the mountain road ahead.

"There are really bandits!"

Zhang Twelve returned to the car and said to Lu Fujing, but there was no worry on his face, instead he looked extremely excited!
