Chapter 11: Walking through the streets with a large sum of money 1



Chu Tian had really drunk too much. Not only was his face red and his hair messy, but the flowers he used to wear in his hair were gone. His clothes were even more tangled, like a rag. He must have rolled on the ground many times to be in this state. 』

Many onlookers looked up at the plaque of Qingliu Cottage and laughed with a meaningful smile.

A brave idler stood on tiptoe in the crowd and shouted in a strange voice: "What a romantic man Chu Dangtou is! He is truly a romantic man!"

Chu Tian burped, and a strong smell of alcohol came out of his pores. His movements were much slower than usual. He turned over a little stiffly and climbed onto the back of the old yellow wolf with a look of disgust, and waved his arms vigorously again.

"Leave the city, leave the city, now that you have the gold, leave the city and go home. You filthy bastards should be more careful. If you lose a piece of gold, your legs will be broken! When you go back, everyone will get some interest. Hee, enough for you to support another family of children!"

A dozen or so rickshaw drivers and dozens of porters gritted their teeth and stared at the ten fully loaded carts.

Like Chu Tian, ​​they had spent most of the day hanging out with their friends in the city of Qizhou, and were already drunk. They were all simple-minded people who roamed the streets!

Irritated by the neatly stacked small boxes on the ten carriages, these guys had bloodshot eyes and red faces, gulped down breaths of alcohol, and started yelling loudly, holding sticks and daggers that they had found from somewhere.

"Go back, go back, go home and share the profits. Wow, Mr. Chu is so generous!"

A group of staggering, drunken, red-eyed drivers and porters drove the carriages along the avenue slowly toward the south gate of Qizhou City. Countless onlookers along the way made way for the carriages, staring at the ten carriages with the eyes of a wolf seeing a little white rabbit.

In the crowd, Lan Butcher, the head of the butcher business in Qizhou City, suddenly leaned half of his body out and said, "Boss Chu, Boss Chu, it's almost night time now, why are you going out of the city? Why don't you wait until tomorrow morning and gather your guys to go back together?"

Butcher Lan frowned, looking at this mob of drivers and porters, and snorted coldly, "What use are these thieves?"

Chu Tian blinked his eyes. There were many people watching, many of whom were familiar faces to Chu Tian. They were all the bosses of various industries in Qizhou City, and they were the heroes who monopolized a certain industry. But among them, only Lan the Butcher came out to persuade him!

It was not in vain that two years ago, when Butcher Lan’s son-in-law caused trouble and colluded with outsiders to seize Butcher Lan’s position as the boss and wanted to harm his family, Chu Tian came to the rescue and took a few of his men to sink Butcher Lan’s son-in-law and the people who colluded with him into the river.

Blue Butcher is able to come out and call out at this time. He is a truly loyal person!

Keeping Lan the Butcher's round face in mind, Chu Tian deliberately burped hard, and with a bit of stupidity, he patted his chest and shouted at Lan the Butcher: "What are you afraid of? What are you afraid of? It's only thirty miles away, it only takes a pee to get there, what can go wrong? I, Chu Tian, ​​am also a well-known figure in Qizhou City, can't I protect this little thing?"

Chu Tian waved his hand and said to Butcher Lan with a smile: "Boss Lan, I'll have a drink with you some other day!"

Butcher Lan's face changed slightly. He was about to say something, but many unfriendly eyes in the crowd had already fallen on him. He was followed by three or four trusted disciples, all of whom were strong and fierce men who dared to use a butcher knife to cut people's bellies. However, there were a dozen or so equally fierce men in the crowd who were vaguely surrounding him.

Butcher Lan let out a long breath, waved to Chu Tian, ​​and said nothing more with a dead look on his face.

There were ten large carts, and the ten specially made four-wheeled trucks that Chu Tianyun brought back with the golden-scaled carp. A total of twenty large carts separated the crowd and slowly moved towards the south gate of Qizhou City.

The sound of desolate horns could be heard from the direction of the four city gates of Qizhou City.

This is the state soldiers stationed at the city gate notifying the merchants and residents inside and outside the city that whether they are leaving or entering the city, they must hurry up, because it is getting dark, and after three horn sounds, the city gate will be closed.

According to the rules of the Jin Dynasty, once the gates of cities were closed at night, no one could open the city gates unless an urgent edict from the emperor of the Jin Dynasty arrived thousands of miles away.

"Hurry, hurry, the city gate needs to be closed!" Chu Tian hurriedly patted the old yellow wolf's neck.

The old yellow wolf howled and walked forward in small steps. A dozen drivers hurriedly drove the carts to catch up. The laborers who were already drunk could not keep up with the speed of the carts. There were exactly ten empty four-wheeled trucks, so they climbed onto the trucks in a hurry and sat on them, laughing and shouting.

Twenty large carts, ten of which were horse-drawn carriages fully loaded with fifteen thousand taels of gold, arrived at the south gate of Qizhou City in a grand manner.

Most of the thousands of idle people who had just gathered at the entrance of Qingliu Villa have dispersed. Many of them were just there to watch the fun. If they really wanted to have any ideas about Chu Tian, ​​they would not have the courage to do so.

But there were more than a hundred shadowy figures following far behind, all of them hiding their heads and tails, and moving cautiously. It was already dusk, and the light on the street was extremely dim. They were very familiar with using the shadows of the streets and eaves to hide their figures.

Occasionally Chu Tian looked back and saw that among these people there were servants dressed in green clothes and small hats from wealthy families, as well as street warriors with bare chests and knives stuck on their belts. What surprised Chu Tian even more was that he actually saw a few policemen wearing coarse linen clothes on the outside, with their lapels sometimes flying, revealing the tight black uniforms underneath!

"You bastards, I've given you a lot of benefits on weekdays, yet you're thinking of stabbing me now!" Chu Tian sneered with his teeth bared: "It seems that the money I spent on tea and water on weekdays has been fed to the dogs!"

Another round of horns sounded, and the convoy had arrived at the south gate of Qizhou City.

The state soldiers stationed here today all looked a little strange when they saw Chu Tian's convoy coming.

Especially the two lieutenants who commanded the state soldiers at the city gate, the veins on the back of their hands bulged, and their hands kept rubbing on the handles of their swords subconsciously. It was obvious that if this was not the city gate, they would have been unable to hold back and draw their swords to hit Chu Tian hard!

A group of state soldiers and several patrolmen at the city gate stared at the carriage behind Chu Tian. Their faces were red, their breathing was heavy, and their movements were extremely stiff, as if they were tied with huge stones weighing thousands of pounds.

Chu Tian suddenly raised his head slightly and glanced at the gate tower on the city gate.
