Sun Qiang stared at the Luo family's carriage not far away. When the goods were being loaded, he saw that many of the boxes were filled with gold and silver when he weighed them.
The Luo family is such a big family and has been struggling for nearly a hundred years. The cloth business is related to everyone's clothing problem. It is really hard to imagine how much money they can earn.
If it were before the war, he would not dare to have any other thoughts.
However, isn't this a bad world? Thinking of the person I met by chance some time ago, and the messages she brought me.
A hint of cruelty flashed across his eyes. A man without cruelty is not a hero. Some things can provide three generations with food and drink.
As for the unpromising wife and children at home, they had long been thrown far away by him.
"Brother, that Luo guy is such a piece of shit. He invited us, but he even hired some villagers right in front of us.
Bah, if I had known this was going to happen, I wouldn’t have taken the job.”
The brother came over and grumbled indignantly. Sun Qiang gave him a cold look.
"Bear with it for a moment, we'll do it tonight."
"Huh? Why so fast? Didn't we say we were going to Fengtou Pass?"
"There's a narrow passage ahead. Refugees will rush in there. When the situation gets disrupted, we'll take advantage of it and strike."
"This is good. If we can get it sooner, we brothers can go home to pick up our wives and children with peace of mind. I don't know if my wife and children will be affected.
Looking at these groups of people fleeing famine, I felt very panicked.
Sun Qiang stared at him coldly. "With money, you won't have to worry about not being able to marry a beautiful wife. Big Dog, think long-term. With a beautiful wife, you won't have to worry about not having children!"
"this?"
Da Gouzi was shocked. He understood what the boss was thinking. Thinking about the Hedong Lion at home, if he had money... it seemed that he wouldn't have to endure the woman's anger anymore.
"Brother, I'll listen to you."
Sun Qiang then smiled and patted his shoulder.
"That's right. As a person, vision is very important. Follow big brother, and you will have a good meal and drink spicy drinks without worries. In the future, we brothers can choose any beautiful bride we want."
"hey-hey……"
Big Dog let out an obscene laugh, as if he saw a future life with women on both sides.
After finishing his meal, Chief Luo strolled around and noticed something was wrong.
"Why are you all out there trying so hard to find something? Wild vegetables? No, they look old, they don't look like they're edible."
Butler Zhou went forward and asked a few women, and told them when he came back.
"Master, they are from Women's Village and Houshan Village. I heard that there are several doctors in Houshan Village. They said they can collect a lot of medicinal herbs."
"Harvesting medicinal herbs? Why do I think those women are picking chili grass? Can chili grass be used as medicine?"
His face was full of doubt. Although his family was in the fabric business, he also knew some things about life.
For example, if this licorice grass can really be used as medicine, why can it grow everywhere on the roadside?
Even if it can be used as medicine, it is very cheap. Is the doctor in Houshan Village messing around?
He shook his head and walked a few more steps. He became more certain when he found that someone was collecting toads and some very poisonous grass.
"This country doctor, who knows a few herbs, thinks he is a doctor. I think this so-called doctor in Houshan Village is just messing around."
The housekeeper also knew those herbs that were not very useful. They were either poisonous, very irritating, or had a paralyzing effect.
"Looking at the medicine they made, I think they are not doctors, but poison doctors."
"Ha, yes, all deadly."
Sun Qiang, who was following closely behind them, listened with a slightly moving look in his eyes.
I still felt a little nervous and afraid that something might happen. After all, the people in Houshan Village looked rough and vulnerable, but who can blame them for having weapons?
Now I am collecting these medicines that are not poisonous but can cause itching. Is there really a poisonous medicine?
"But don't worry, sir. Even if they have a poison doctor, they're probably just trying to scare ordinary people.
If you want to extract the poison from this medicine, you need the proper tools."
“Yes, being a poison doctor is not that easy. You need to understand various poisons and extract effective substances from them.
I'm not worried, sir, I just think this group of people are messing around."
When Sun Qiang heard this, he came over and added a sentence.
"It's out in the countryside. I guess I was lucky enough to pick up some weapons along the way. I hope they're useful enough so they don't get messed up when someone attacks them."
His words made Chief Luo a little worried. He was afraid that he would see the hiring decision made by the weapon and end up not being able to help, but instead making things worse...
This thought made him feel a little irritated, and he lost the desire to go for a walk. He turned around and planned to rest.
Not long after he lay down to sleep, Sun Qiang came over to call for help.
"Master, I see countless darkness swaying around. I'm afraid the situation is not good. Why don't we get on the road quickly?"
"It's probably even worse to travel so late at night, or..."
Sun Qiang added, "It sounds a bit like they're from Black Wind Village. If they really are that group, I'm afraid..."
This time, Chief Luo could no longer sit still.
"Then let's set off."
Anyway, it's only about an hour away from dawn, and sometimes you have to get up this early if you're in a hurry.
After receiving the news of setting off overnight, Li raised his eyebrows and once again warned the villagers under his command.
"Everyone, please be alert. It's especially easy to get into trouble when walking at night like this."
Originally, the people from the escort agency were the vanguards on this journey, but that night Li also sent a few smart ones to follow ahead.
When they reached the narrow area, the man from the escort agency made a safe gesture.
Li Da and Li Er look fierce at ordinary times, but they are actually nice people after getting to know each other.
For this reason, Li sent his two brothers out to scout the front line.
Seeing the man from the escort agency making a peace sign, it stands to reason that the two brothers Li Da and Li Er should have taken over to convey the message.
However, Li Er scratched his head at this time and whispered something to his elder brother.
"Brother, I hear something's wrong around here. Also, the road conditions look...if there's an ambush, what do you think? If our team passes through here and rocks roll down from above...will we have to run?"
"Of course we have to. This place can only accommodate one person and one car. Even if it's a car, it has to be sideways, otherwise I'm afraid it will fall off."
"So, I think we should stop spreading the word and explore a bit. I heard a slight movement on the left side ahead, and I don't know..."
As he was speaking, the mischievous Li Er suddenly threw a few stones.
"ah……"
"There's an ambush..."
This scream caused the two Li brothers to scream out loud.
The Chen brothers who followed closely behind shouted even louder.
"There's an ambush, sir, there's an ambush, brothers, poke around."
Chief Luo and others in the middle trembled all over when they heard this: It’s over!
