Chapter 144 Recruiting People



Liu Feng remembered the tips the old man gave him.

When Wang Changsheng framed him in the county government office, it was this brocade bag that saved his life.

But now it seems that this treasure bag is a hot potato, something that can be fatal if not handled properly.

I treat it as a treasure and carry it with me all the time.

Looking at Liu Feng's increasingly serious expression, Wu Jiang didn't know what was wrong and asked in a low voice.

"What's wrong?"

When Liu Feng heard Wu Jiang's question, he reacted instantly, laughed, and took out the treasure bag that once saved his life from his waist.

He has already decided to give it to Wu Jiang.

"I have something here, and I'll give it to you now."

"This thing saved my life, and it can save your life at a critical moment."

"But there's one thing: you can't look inside."

Wu Jiang smiled.

Does this thing need to be opened?

You only need to take one look to know its origin.

Who except the royal family would dare to use this kind of fabric?

Besides, the embroidery on it has a unique meaning. It is obvious that it belongs to Lord Li from the Imperial Observatory.

This embroidery and this Wu hook are symbols used only by this old minister among the regents.

It is said that when Lord Li was in the court, his token was a Wu Gou, and seeing a Wu Gou was like seeing him in person.

This is the symbol of power.

He already knew in his heart why Lord Li gave this thing to Liu Feng?

It was obvious that Lord Li believed that Liu Feng was the vision he saw.

The person who carries good luck.

If such a thing happened to someone else, Wu Jiang might just laugh it off and not take it seriously, but with Liu Feng, he believed it.

"I, Wu Jiang, didn't misjudge him this time."

Wu Jiang laughed heartily and put the brocade bag into his waist without saying a word.

When they were in Tianwai Tian, ​​Wu Jiang had already seen that Liu Feng was extraordinary. He had no intention of becoming a bandit, but even so, he had the talent for political strategy and the skills to slay dragons, but he ultimately did not have the ability to lead troops in battle.

Even though he had no plans to restore his country, he and his brothers needed a place to stay, so at that time he thought of following Liu Feng temporarily.

With Liu Feng's gradual rise, first he was the captain of Xinhe Ferry, and now he has obtained military power. Wu Jiang sees a bright future, and even the possibility of Liu Feng dividing the land and establishing new borders.

Wu Jiang knew very well that the reason Liu Feng gave him this thing was not because he was afraid of the court's investigation or because he was afraid of death.

Instead, they were worried that this thing on him would create obstacles in his future and make things difficult for him.

Giving this thing to Wu Jiang is the most appropriate and only option at the moment.

After all, if this thing was given to someone else, such as Wang Dingliu and others, no one would believe that Lord Li would choose such a person. No one would believe it.

If this thing is given to Wu Jiang, Wu Jiang will become another Liu Feng in the future. Wu Jiang will be the substitute, and Liu Feng can do more things behind the scenes and better grasp the overall situation.

From another perspective, Liu Feng has completely trusted Wu Jiang.

Liu Feng laughed and raised his glass.

Wu Jiang and I drank it all in one gulp, without any extra words, everything was in the wine.

Liu Feng was very satisfied. Wu Jiang was a smart man and could understand what he meant so quickly.

In fact, this is also a test for Wu Jiang. Once he accepts the secret bag, he may face various dangers, even life-threatening ones.

Being able to accept the treasure bag so readily is equivalent to completely handing over one's life to Liu Feng.

The two chatted until late at night and then went to rest.

After a simple breakfast the next day, the five of them mounted their horses and headed towards the Pig Camp.

Zhuzaiying is actually not called Zhuzaiying. There are three big characters on the wooden plaque at the entrance: Shuiyuezhai.

In fact, the government turned a blind eye to this place, and it was endorsed by the government behind the scenes, and the voices were very loud.

According to Wu Jiang, there are many such slave trading places in Dali today, and there are four or five in Youzhou alone.

The location of Shuiyue Village is very special and not many people know about it.

Those who come here are from major chambers of commerce and wealthy families.

Shuiyue Village is built deep in the mountains. There is a small path and pipeline connected to it for carriages to pass through. From the entrance of the path to the base camp of Shuiyue Village, there are more than a dozen outposts on this road of less than five miles.

Shuiyue Village was surrounded by high walls and wooden fences, and the defense was very strict, so the slaves had no chance to escape.

At the door, Liu Feng and several others were interrogated and the silver they carried was checked before they were qualified to enter.

This time, Liu Feng knew that the amount of silver needed was huge.

So before leaving, he asked Mu Wanqing to withdraw two thousand banknotes from his account.

Although he is not a wealthy man who can easily spend tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of silver coins, he is still among the middle-class customers here.

So after entering, we were warmly welcomed.

"Boss Liu, this way please."

"ah……."

“Kill me…”

Liu Feng's ears were filled with screams and even the sound of whips.

You can even smell a burnt smell in your nose, the smell of burning flesh and blood.

Liu Feng looked through the window in the corridor and saw four or five stripped men inside. They were fixed to a wooden frame, and red-hot irons were burning the word "slave" into their bodies.

With the word "slave" in their names, their fate for life is determined. They can only be slaves and there is no possibility of turning things around.

"Boss Liu, please forgive me for making fun of you. These people are all new here and haven't received much training yet. They're not very obedient."

"Boss Liu, please come here to choose."
