Chapter 435. Robbers

Li Hao smiled mysteriously and shook his head slightly.

It's over, this child is so stimulating that he's useless! It's going to be a big deal in the future.

Seeing the slutty smile in the eyes of Lao Wei and Dai Zhou, the first reaction was that Li Hao suddenly became nervous.

Dai Zhou's whole body was tense, and he made an action that was ready to rush out to catch people at any time, and asked tentatively: "Mr. Li, you are..."

"Uncle Wei." Li Hao did not notice Dai Zhou's changes, but only focused on Wei Hongda: "As a general, one should know astronomy, geography, and one should understand people and harmony..."

The old guard listened with his ears stuck out for a long time, but he couldn't understand what Li Hao was saying. As his face became darker and darker, he couldn't help but say, "Boy, what do you want to say."

Li Hao showed off for a long time, and not only did he not react in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little discouraged, his head drooped: "I mean, there will be a heavy rain in Guanzhong in half a month."

Old Man Wei was stunned and said in a panic: "Bad."

He realized now that Li Hao was not as magical as the legendary one. This kid was just spoiled by Li Jing and his mind was a little bad.

Dai Zhou's eyes were even more worried, and he looked at Li Hao deeply: "Hou Li, I know you are angry, but there is always a solution to the problem of food. You must not ruin yourself."

What does it mean, what does these two people mean?

Li Hao reacted for a while before he noticed the pity in the eyes of the two people on the other side. He couldn't help but make him angry, and he became brave and bit his back teeth and said, "Don't you two believe it?"

"I believe, but who can tell the matter accurately after half a month? In my opinion, it is better to send someone to Chang'an to inform the Ministry of Justice and ask the Ministry of Justice to send someone to Songzhou to investigate the matter. Perhaps it can investigate some points and find some food." Dai Zhou said silly for a long time, but still didn't believe Li Hao's appearance.

Without any tricks, Li Hao could only sigh: "Oh, why are geniuses always so lonely?"

The road ahead is long. Although Chen Cang and Qishan are not far away, the carriage will take two days to walk. The group began their journey of exploration in such a strange atmosphere.

On the other side, Meng Zhuze of Songzhou Prefecture, in the shimmering lake and mountains, dozens of large ships docked at the simple dock on the shore. The vast crowd seemed to be in the New Year, and the children danced and laughed.

The older girl and the younger wife gathered together with their pockets or houses holding the items, chatting happily.

There were hundreds of men standing on dozens of large ships, holding harpoons or javelins naked, with happy smiles on their faces.

However, all of these people looked like a dish without exception, just like the green onion heart.

The only dressed up to be quite eye-catching, Peng Laoqi stood on the bow of the largest ship, looking at the noisy surrounding him, and his face was filled with worry from time to time.

A middle-aged man in blue shirt stood beside Peng Laoqi, holding a feather fan, looking at him pointing out his country: "Peng Dangjia, I can't tell that you have such a high reputation among these refugees, but Lu is very impressed."

After coming back to his senses, Peng Laoqi smiled bitterly: "Mr. Lu is too proud. In the next down-and-out scholar, he cannot praise him like this.

A refugee, a foreigner, is in other words, the meaning of a black household.

If you meet a wise monarch or a responsible local official, you may have the possibility of returning to normal life. However, if you meet a more irritable monarch or a local official who is swearing in the face, you can only seek more blessings. If you are lucky, you will hide in Tibet all your life. If you are almost caught by the government army, you will definitely gain a reputation as a bandit.

In ancient times, there was no saying of human rights. It was said that human life was like grass, but in fact, many times even grass was worse than grass.

Meng Zhuze in Songzhou Prefecture is a large lake. Because it is located in a remote place and most of the lakes are swamps, few official troops will pass by here. Therefore, since the Daye period of the Sui Dynasty, it has become a settlement for refugees in the entire Songzhou. After more than ten years of development, the number of refugees is close to the 20,000 mark.

As the saying goes, a snake cannot do without a head, and a bird cannot fly without a head. Once there are many people, it will naturally become chaotic. Over time, some knowledgeable people will appear to lead everyone.

Peng Laoqi is such a knowledgeable man. Among the more than 20,000 refugees, he controlled the most people. The number of old and young people together was about 5,000, and he became the most powerful among all refugees.

Usually, I gather in the north bank of Meng Zhuze, and occasionally organize young and strong people among the refugees to go out to find some business, rob the rich and help the poor, etc. Over time, it naturally attracted the attention of some people who are interested.

Look, a few days ago, a middle-aged man who claimed to be the surname Lu found him and said he was giving him a fortune that was so sensational.

Peng Laoqi did not want to agree, but considering that the life of refugees was getting harder and harder, he finally had to accept the other party's request, bring all the young and strong together, and do a big deal according to the other party's request.

However, Peng Laoqi never dreamed that what he robbed this time was the life-saving food from Qizhou Prefecture.

That's one hundred thousand stones of grain. The person who paid for the grain was Zheng family in Xingyang, and the owner of the grain was Prince of Wei.

Peng Laoqi was frightened. He was not a person who knew the depth. Although he was currently a refugee, this did not mean that he did not know who Li Hao was. Of course, even if he didn't know who Li Hao was, just Zhengshi in Xingyang was not something he could afford.

Therefore, although half of the food he stolen was distributed to him in the end, Peng Laoqi still couldn't be happy.

"Why, the Peng family regrets it?" The middle-aged man surnamed Lu heard the bitterness in Peng Laoqi's tone, and his eyes showed a little disdain: "If this is the case, Lu can leave on his own. The Peng family can also think that the previous incident has not happened."

Peng Laoqi quickly explained, and his posture was very low: "Mr. Lu, don't get me wrong, I don't have this intention."

Just kidding, what does it mean to have never happened? Such a big thing happened, probably would have alarmed the court. If no one was in front of him, let alone the 5,000 refugees under his command, even if he turned over twice, facing dozens or millions of government troops, he would not be able to make any big waves.

"Yeah!" Lu Chengfu was very satisfied with Peng Laoqi's attitude, and said 'um' with his nose, pointing to the big ships behind him and said, "After unloading the ship, you can take out 10% of these grains and find me a place to save the rest. I will be of great use in the future."

A hint of anger flashed in Peng Laoqi's eyes, but he did not express it on his face, "Yes, I must do it as required by the teacher, but..."

"What? Are you in trouble?" Lu Chengfu's voice suddenly sank, and his face showed displeasure.

Before coming here, Lu Chengfu was just a poor manager in the branch of the Lu family. He usually ran errands and collected a account. If he had not relied on being a native of Songzhou, he would not have had such a thing today.

But then again, contact with refugees is actually risky. When Lu Chengfu first received the task, he felt like he was losing his parents, and he felt that life was no longer fun.

But after contact, he found that these refugees worshipped the so-called aristocratic family to their core. Even if he was a poor manager, he could rely on the Lu family's momentum to pretend to be powerful among the refugees.

This involuntarily encouraged Lu Chengfu to find many superiority that he had never found before. Except for being cautious in the first day or two, he was completely domineering instructors and did not take anyone seriously at all. Even Peng Laoqi, the leader of this group of people, was the same.

Peng Laoqi cursed the villain in his heart, pointed to the big ship behind him and said, "Well, Mr. Lu, look at the person we caught this time... what should we do?"

"Let's keep it closed first. If you feel that you're wasting food, it doesn't matter if you kill it or use it to fill the river." Lu Chengfu just wanted to find a place to rest. He swayed on the boat for a whole day, and had to carry food for a whole night before. He was too tired to take care of the hostages without hostages.

Day, I should fill the river with you first.

Peng Laoqi hit a nail again, a murderous intent flashed in his lowered eyes. He looked at Lu Chengfu's back as he got off the boat and said, "Yes, the villain understands."

"The head of the family, why are you polite to him? Anyway, you have got the food, so why not..." After Peng Laoqi straightened up, his subordinate's gloomy voice came from behind him.

"Don't worry, this person has great use." Peng Laoqi waved his hand, turned around and said calmly to the indignant subordinates behind him: "Don't divide these foods first, find a place to save them. In addition, send someone to look at the person named Lu, and you can't let him leave no matter what. Do you understand?"

"Why?" Looking at the dozens of ships of spoils, his subordinates asked in confusion.

They risked their lives to snatch these foods back. Why bother going out to grab them at the beginning?

Peng Laoqi gave his subordinate a broken mind: "Idiot, if this is the grain of ordinary people, we will divide it. But have you heard that these grains belong to before..."

"It seems like a man named Prince Wei." His subordinate rubbed his forehead and retreated aside, saying aggrievedly.

"Fuck, something that is unsightly. Prince Wei is just a title, not a name." Peng Laoqi cursed and explained with a bad voice: "I'm not afraid to tell you that Duke Wei refers to Duke Wei Li Jing. Does Li Jing know who it is? The military god who defeated the Turks and the Minister of War. If we rob his son's food, do you think he will give up?"

"What? Army, the food of the God of War?" His subordinates automatically ignored Li Hao's existence. In his opinion, his son's things were my own. It was no different from snatching Li Jing's son's things from Li Jing.

Peng Laoqi nodded with a gloomy face: "I only learned the news from the prisoners afterwards, otherwise I would not have robbed this batch of grain before I was beaten to death."

Another subordinate was so scared that he was sweating coldly and said nervously: "What should I do? The boss, then, why don't Li Jing mobilize the army to encircle us?"

"How do I know?" Peng Laoqi waved his hand impatiently, thought for a while and said to a strong man with scars on his face: "That... third brother, I have a task for you now, it's very dangerous. I don't know if you dare to take it."

The scar-faced man straightened his chest: "What's there to be afraid of? A big scar in his head is gone. Eighteen years later, I'm a hero again."

"Okay, since that's the case, don't rest. Go to Qizhou as quickly as possible. Be sure to find Prince Wei and tell him everything that happened here. At the same time, you tell him that we had to do this robbery of grain this time. We will properly resettle those caught and not even move a piece of grain. If necessary, you can return the original item."

"Okay!" The scarfaced man responded, walked off the boat along the springboard, took two confidants with him, and left without even asking for money.

Looking at Fengfenghuohuo's brothers, Peng Laoqi had to whisper: "Be careful on the road and don't cause trouble."

From afar, the Scarface Man's voice came back: "I know, don't worry, boss."

Seeing that Peng Laoqi had been watching the scar-faced strong man leaving, the other subordinates had to remind him carefully: "The boss, the children's young family are still watching, this food..."

"The food cannot be divided, it is related to our life and death. You guys go down to appease the brothers and let them comfort their little family again." Peng Laoqi shook his head: "I thought things too simple before, but now it seems that this must be a conspiracy of the Lu family."

"Hey, then, okay." Several subordinates, Jinguan, were a little dissatisfied, but no one went against Peng Laoqi's intentions. They responded and turned around and arranged each other, leaving Peng Laoqi alone in the bow of the ship.

Because of incomplete information, Peng Laoqi could not understand why there were also distracting families. The food was transported by the Zheng family in Xingyang, but the Lu family in Fanyang was the one who came up with the idea to rob.

Why are the five surnames and seven hopes not in the same spirit? How could they fight by themselves?

Moreover, this time I robbed the life-saving food that was the first disaster in Chang'an. Can this person give up?

The summer wind blowing from the lake was a little cool, but it couldn't blow away the irritability in Peng Laoqi's heart. After walking back and forth a few times on the boat, he finally decided to go and ask the person named Lu.

After all, even if you die, you will understand that it is not true. It is so unfair to be killed by someone in a mess.

In a courtyard not far from the lake shore, Lu Chengfu asked someone to make a pot of tea for himself, took a sip, sat comfortably under the shade of the tree, stretching his slightly sour thighs.

It seems that it is really impossible to accept old age. When I was young, I didn’t sleep for several days and nights and it was like playing, but now it’s better, I just ran on the boat for three days and two nights and got so tired that I was dying.

After breathing out a breath of turbid air, Lu Chengfu sighed: "Oh, after making this ticket, I have money too. I'll make some money. I hope I can have a good position."

Thinking of the grain loaded on dozens of large ships not far away, Lu Chengfu couldn't help but feel a little excited. That's the grain. After a few of them passed, he would just get the food to Luoyang and sell it, and it would be a lot of money...
