After Lao Banzhai broke up, Tang Buwen handled things so quickly that even Liu Mao could not imagine it. Before it was dark, Tang Buwen personally sent three large boxes of silver ocean to the guest house where Liu Mao temporarily lived. "You are lucky, Brother Mao," Tang Buwen gasped after climbing more than a dozen stairs, "The master is generous enough this time, all the money is paid at the original price-here is Dayang 6000 yuan, this is the contract, this time It’s a receipt—you don’t need to fill in the blanks, maybe he can use this to ask the commander in chief for money.”

"Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations on the deal!" Qi Xiaoshe heard the news from somewhere, and shouted along the way. Mao Liu quickly signed the contract and the receipt, and a stone in his heart fell to the ground; the contract stipulates when will he be able to capture and kill Guan Ba?When will we attack Yanshi?Everything was clearly ordered.But Mao Liulian didn't even bother to look at it—if Yinyang was in his hands, what did he care about the four judges, Yanshi and Guanba?Finally, with the help of Qi Xiaoshe as a stepping stone, Liuqian Dayang was cheated!But he didn't know that half of Tang Buwen's offer to Bi Bi was 8,000, and the other 2,000 had already fallen into his pocket; and the reason why Mr. Pi Bi was willing to pay the money, it turned out that the money was a duck's egg. Yes, it doesn't hurt to spend money to buy a peace of mind.Secondly, I just received an urgent call from the Commander-in-Chief, and the date for breaking through the salt market has been set. Anyway, this money will have to be spent sooner or later.

Mr. Slack Nose showed the urgent telegram to Tang Buwen, but Tang Buwen, who spent two thousand oceans, had already called for four months of sick leave... He planned to go to Yangzhou City for hospitalization, and he lived in a first-class brothel, not a hospital. Well, the only medicine that can cure him of this problem is one blindness, the thin, tender, soft, white, tender, flower-like women in the brothels in Yangzhou that he can't live without. But Mao Liu, who was more eager to get out of the county than Tang Buwen, could not get away. He thought that he would fly away if he got the money, but he never expected that too many Yinyang would trap people like quicksand. How to transport this money?I couldn't sleep after thinking about it all night.Six thousand silver coins are divided into three big boxes, too much and too heavy, so heavy that it can crush a person to death, even if you turn on the coal lamp and look at those boxes a few more times, your heart will be crushed. I can't breathe.

It would have been much easier if it hadn't been in the freezing midwinter and the Grand Canal hadn't been blocked by spikes of ice; all I had to do was pretend to be a big merchant, and pack the six thousand silver oceans into several small boxes. If you hire a new and large sailboat at a high price, you can transport this batch of silver ocean to North Xuzhou by water. There, you still have a bunch of buddies, and you can use this money to go out of the province and go to the world. Now that the waterway is blocked by drifting ice, we have to turn to the dry road to make up our minds, saying that we should hire a car to push it. The four townships are in chaos, and it doesn't matter if we meet bandits who are scattered and robbing the road. They backed off, but if they were to meet someone from the fourth judge, wouldn't they have sent money for him? !It's not bad to meet the four judges. If you want to transport money to North Xuzhou, you have to go through the throat area near Yanshi. that's it!

Guan Ba ​​yo!Guan Ba ​​yo!As soon as he thought of Guan Ba's name, and the image of Guan Ba ​​Ye being imprisoned in North Xuzhou appeared in his eyes, Mao Liu couldn't help but burst out bloody and terrifying wailing from the depths of his heart; a man who was about to be executed The death row prisoner will frighten himself tonight. This is something that he never thought of when he raped the old jailer's daughter Aigu. What I didn't think of at three o'clock was what I didn't think of when I occupied Bian Sanmei's little wonton, but I thought of it tonight when I was facing these three boxes of Yinyang... Take my head away, it's not mine anymore!

The cold rooster crowed sadly as if chasing after its soul, and the sound of water at the gate was even more shocking in the still night. The more Mao Liu pressed himself not to think wildly, the more his head refused to obey, and the more he thought about it. The more frightened I became.The cold wind shook the panes behind him, rattling, and the shadow of Bian San, who had been buried for a long time, reappeared, his mouth was wide open, and he made an empty voice in the shadows in front of him, as if to say: Mao Six, Mao Liu, what kind of air is there to cheat Yinyang?How you kill, people will kill you!

"Bah!" Mao Liu leaned on the bed, spat fiercely, spat Bian San's shadow away, and complained, "You're so fucking suspicious! Where did you get your courage? !" No matter how much you curse, the evil heart still can't come back.Even Liu Mao himself wondered why he was so afraid?When I was a jailer in my early years, in that eerie prison, didn't I drag the dead out from the black hole that day? !Didn't you hear the rumors about the haunted cells that day? !At that time, I was never afraid, as if I was full of courage.Really as the saying goes? ——People are not guilty, not afraid of ghosts and gods?

fuck it!What Bian San and Guan Ba ​​are all illusions born of doubts and fears in my mind!Mao Liu changed his mind again and said, money can make ghosts turn the mill, I have money, I like to go there, there are more leaves in happy days than when spring comes, do you need to think about it?Let's go to sleep, the cold rooster crows again. ...Well, no!He just fell down and sat up again, holding his knees with his hands.I haven't figured out how to transport these three boxes of Yinyang! ... Saying that he didn't want to, he picked up another cigarette, and his thoughts became gloomy and nightmarish.

Of course, if in the early years, it would be a safe and convenient way to deposit Yinyang in a big bank, get a bill for the amount of silver deposited, and go to a bank in Beidi that has dealings with a certain bank to get the exchange. The bureau is changing, and there is no such bank in the county!If people are with Yinyang, hire a car and push them on the road, and push them to North Xuzhou, a journey of nearly a thousand miles, how many dangers will there be along the way?It's sad that Tang Seng went to the west. ...Looking for a place to cellar?Or exchange for gold?Liu Mao racked his brains to think, but couldn't think of a perfect solution.The remnant charcoal fire in the copper stove illuminates his tired shadow curled up on the bedside, his pale and thin face, and the tired red eyes with black rings around them.

After he finished smoking one cigarette, he lit another. The extreme sleepiness made him a little at a loss, and he couldn't concentrate his thoughts on anything seriously; he jumped from Yinyang to Guanba, from Guanba to Bian Three, jumping from Bian San to Little Wonton. ... The small ravioli with thin skin and white meat naked, and the 4,700 Ruyi Tangzi, which was expanded by the ocean, are all in the water!I don't know what made Guan Ba's heart?Why bother to fight Liu Mao and me just because of an Aigu?Rape her and sell her, I, Liu Liu, didn't do it alone? !Didn't I share the money alone? !Does he need to meddle in his own business by biting a mouse? ...It seemed as if he had dozed off for a while, seeing white silver bills rolling all over the place, and every foreign coin had Bian San grimacing on his face, grinning grinningly, and then opened his eyes, the sky was gradually getting brighter.

Since I haven't figured out how to get rid of the silver money for a while, it's better to go to Xiangyun Village to discuss it with Qi Xiaoshe. It's better for two people to make up their minds than one person. Didn't he say that he can ask him for help? !He made up his mind to find Qi Xiaoshe, locked the door and went downstairs, and walked towards Huajie.There are few early pedestrians on the stone embankment, the morning wind is as thin as a knife blade, and it cuts people's nostrils sorely; the turtle-backed clouds on the zenith are low and thick, and the strong wind has lasted for several days, and the sky has not yet cleared. look.It was still early, and the city was still asleep, except for a few water bearers, who dug holes in the ice of the river below the stone steps to draw water, groaning and singing, and walked with the water load, splashing it on the road all the way. The water droplets on the ground turned into ice in a blink of an eye. Liu Mao flicked the woolen scarf to block his nostrils, left the embankment and turned towards Flower Street. Under the corridors on both sides of that low narrow street, many lanterns that had been lit all night were still facing each other sleepily, and no shop was open. ... No, no!As soon as the thought moved, Sixth Mao's footsteps slowed down.It's too early to find Qi Xiaoshe at this time!Although Qi Xiaoshe said that he was very speculative with him, but they had always known each other not long ago, how could he show his feet in front of him in such a fuss? !If he is asked to remove his hole cards and secretly report to the Jiang Fangjun that I, Mao Liu, intend to cheat Yinyang, then don't need Guan Ba ​​to step on me, I'm afraid my head will be hung on the horns of the copper bull! (Bronze bulls were used to suppress water when carrying rivers in ancient times, commonly known as copper bulls for water towns. Warlords shot criminals, and they used to cut off their heads and hang them on the horns of copper bulls for public display.) Qi Xiaosnake has many lines on his head, and his eyes can't be rubbed. Enter a grain of sand, the heart is separated from the belly, and the tiger's heart is separated from the fur. It is better not to look for him unless it is absolutely necessary.Bian San believed in me, Mao Liu, who was under the black knife. Mao Liu who killed Bian San was not stupid. Can he follow Bian San's old path just because he believed in others? ! There was a shop selling breakfast over there. An old man braved the cold wind to set up a stove to make sesame seed cakes, and an old lady was frying fried dough sticks in front of the street. up.The place in the shop is not very big, only four or five small square tables can be accommodated. Liu Mao sat down next to one corner and ordered some breakfast. Two men; the table next to it happened to be full, and the two men sat on Mao Liu's table as soon as they turned over. "I'm sorry, brother," the one wearing a black sheepskin two-tile tall hat smiled and greeted Sixth Mao and said, "There are no seats, so we will be squeezed!" "You're tired and squeezed," said the other, short and stout with a mustache. "Squeeze to get warmer," Mao Liu said, "It's really cold, the fur robe is full of cold air!" "It's really cold, isn't it." The Humpty Humpty said, "Fortunately, I'm fat and I'm not afraid of the cold. If I want to be as thin as you, if I get up early and go out, I can freeze into a chicken!" Humpty Humpty ordered two bowls of soy milk and two breakfasts , turned to the man wearing the black sheep hat and said: "Man, what did you do this year?...The colder the weather, the better the fur business. , you sent less?!" It turned out to be two fur dealers, Mao Liu thought: I should get a new one for my fur robe.He was eating his biscuits on the side.The hot soy milk warmed people's bodies, and the two chatted while eating. "Actually, I can't blame you, big boss," said the man in the black sheepskin hat. "Now the throat of Yanshi is very tight, and the large fur goods in Beidi cannot pass; I want to go to Dahuze to receive the goods. At the ferry at home, when the militiamen confronted judge Zhu Si, they came back again....I can’t accept the goods from the place of origin!" "Does the salt market also keep goods?" "Just to check." The man in the black sheepskin hat said: "Except for vegetables, rice and grains, other goods are not allowed to pass through the large and small ferries." Sixth Mao listened, his heart moved, and he pretended to be nonchalant, paying attention to their conversation.
