Chapter 61 Behind the scenes

"Mr. Zhao, how did you fall here? Where are your guards?

Zhao Yixing burst into tears and said, "Alas, it was quite smooth for me to go to Xiyi. After closing the goods, and on the way back, I met a reminder. I thought it would be safe to pay the money to buy the road, but somehow, I ordered my guard to be slaughtered when I came up, but I and Xiaowu. They all came here, and later learned that Boss Su and others had the ability to urge them not to live, and some of the servants, Xiaowu and I, had no threat to urge them, so we were lucky enough to survive.

Yang Yu sighed and said, "It's good to survive, Mr. Zhao, you'll be fine from now on. Just relax."

Zhao Yixing smiled sadly and said, "Brother Yang, oh no, the big boss, please let the old man go back for the sake of our relationship. I'm afraid that if I don't go back, my family business will be completely over."

"What Mr. Zhao said, you have a great favor with me. How can you just leave like this? I said that I must repay you. If you finally have a chance, how can you go back like this? Don't worry."

Zhao Yixing was a little frightened. His kindness to Yang Yu only stopped at a pair of boots and a robe. In addition, he said a few words to make Yang Yu escape being sold as a slave. For Zhao Yixing, these were just small things that Yang Yu was pitiful and casually sent, and he did not dare to feel that he had something for Yang Yu. What a kindness, just want to be able to go home alive, but as for the rest, I dare not think about it.

Zhao Yixing felt that he did nothing, but Yang Yu didn't think so. Not to say that Zhao Yixing saved him from being sold as a slave, but the boots and dough cakes given by Zhao Yixing were extremely precious to Yang Yu, so Zhao Yixing felt that he did not have much kindness to Yang Yu, but Yang Yu did not think so, Yang Yu Yu's creed is to repay the grace of dripping water. If you are kind to me, I will be righteous to you and be favored by the people. How can you let your benefactor leave like this when you see Zhao Yixing's miserable situation at this time?

Zhao Yixing was originally a rich man. He had been urged to be short of food and clothing for two months. He had to bear this heavy physical work. He was in poor health and had fallen into despair. He thought he was going to die in this forest mountain. Unexpectedly, he met Yang Yu, who had given kindness, and Yang Yu was very much to him. For the sake of respect, he is still thinking about his feelings. For a while, Zhao Yixing had hope again. Under excitement, his weak body couldn't stand it at that time and couldn't stand still for a while.

Yang Yu saw Zhao Yixing's poor condition and supported the rickety Zhao Yixing and said loudly to Ma Liu, "Ma Liu, go and clean a room for Mr. Zhao to rest. Go quickly."

After Ma Liu answered and ran away quickly, Yang Yu supported Zhao Yixing and said gently, "Mr. Zhao, please call up Xiao Wu and your servants. I will arrange a place for you and them to take good care of them. When you are ready, I will send you back."

Zhao Yixing was happy and grateful. He immediately hugged his fist and said, "Thank you for your kindness. Zhao is very grateful. Thank you, thank you."

Yang Yu shook his head and said, "Hey, what did Mr. Zhao say at this? He should repay his kindness. I originally said that I would definitely repay him. How can you be so polite? Just treat this place as your home. Everything is casual."

After Yang Yu finished speaking, he smiled at Yang, who was standing behind him, and said, "Big mouth, this is Mr. Zhao, the gentleman who gave me boots, robes and cakes that I told you."

Yang Dazui once heard Yang Yu talk about Zhao Yixing and knew that Yang Yu had been thinking about this person. At this time, he learned that the old man in front of him was Zhao Yixing. He immediately said, "It turns out that you are the Zhao Dashan people that my eldest brother has been talking about. The eldest brother often mentions you. You are kind to my eldest brother, that is, you are kind to me. Zhao Xian Sheng, please accept my worship.

After Yang Dazui finished speaking, he deeply bowed to Zhao Yixing. Zhao Yixing hurried to help Yang Dazui and said in fear, "Oh, I dare not. Zhao just did a little thing, but I dare not do it."

Yang Dazui straightened up and smiled and said, "Mr. Zhao, you're welcome. Now just put your heart back into your stomach. It's good to have my eldest brother. Brother, this is not a place to talk. Let's invite Mr. Zhao to a quiet place. There is still meat and wine in this kitchen. I'll ask someone to fix a table for you. Wouldn't it be better for you to talk with Mr. Zhao while eating?

Yang Yu nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, Mr. Zhao, come with me."

Zhao Yixing's little five, Xiaowu, was always by Zhao Yixing's side, but he didn't dare to interrupt. He never thought that Yang Yu, who was extremely depressed at that time, would become his savior. At this time, he did not dare to let Yang Yu help Zhao Yixing and quickly stepped forward to support Zhao Yixing.

What kind of good treatment can the slaves have? Xiaowu stayed in Linshan for two months and lost weight. Yang Yu saw Xiaowu and somehow remembered Gao Yongming. The fat man stayed in Linshan for nearly two years and followed him to starve in the desert for several months. Unexpectedly, he was not thin at all. Now he looks But I'm a little fatter.

Looking at the generally hungry skinny slaves, and then looking at Gao Yongming, who was full of oily faces, and more and more felt that Gao Yongming was really a demon, Yang Yu shook his head and said to Gao Yongming, "Fat, didn't you just work in the kitchen? You help the big mouth to fix some food, and then work together with Come to me with a big mouth. By the way, settle down Mr. Zhao's employees. Don't let them be with other slaves and treat them deliciously. Don't treat them badly.

Of course, the people of his benefactor should be taken better. After the arrangement was made, Yang Yu led Zhao Yixing to the backyard. At this time, the horse bandits in the backyard had been properly taken care of. Although Yang Yu had not had time to disrupt and resettle the horse bandits, the horse bandits were all removed their weapons and taken by the werewolves. Surrounded by wild wolves, they are not afraid that there will be chaos in the horse bandits.

After Ma Liu cleaned up the original life-threatening room and respectfully welcomed Yang Yu and others into the room, Zhao Yixing said respectfully to Ma Liu, "Thank you very much, Brother Ma."

Yang Yu was surprised and said, "Does Mr. Zhao know Ma Liu?"

Ma Liu said with an embarrassed face, "After Mr. Zhao was abducted to Linshan, the little one inadvertently talked to Mr. Zhao. When he heard Mr. Zhao's local accent, he found that Mr. Zhao and the little one were fellow villagers. Later, when asked, he knew that Mr. Zhao was famous in his hometown. Later, he talked several times, and then I know it well."

Zhao Yixing said gratefully, "The boss has been taken care of a lot by Brother Ma in this forest mountain. If Brother Ma hadn't intended to take care of me, I'm afraid I wouldn't have lived now."

Yang Yu nodded, smiled at Ma Liu and said, "Very good, you did a good job, but I didn't expect things to be such a coincidence. So many people have picked you. Speaking of this, this is also your luck. If you take care of Mr. Zhao, I will naturally take care of you. Don't worry, as long as you work hard, you will definitely Your benefits are indispensable."

Ma Liu was very happy. It turned out that he took care of Zhao Yixing. In addition to the face of his fellow countrymen, he also saw Zhao Yixing's reputation as Zhao Dashan. With his care, Zhao Yixing was able to live a little better than other slaves, but Zhao Yixing was also a slave after all. Although Ma Liu took care of Zhao Yixing, he didn't expect that he could I will follow Zhao Yixing for a day. At this time, I couldn't help but be very excited to hear Yang Yu praise him repeatedly.

"This is all what the small should do. Whether you are close to your hometown or not, the small one and Mr. Zhao are from the same hometown. Naturally, you should take care of it, but the small one can't make the decision after all, otherwise Mr. Zhao would have been released long ago, but in that case, you won't see Mr. Zhao in charge. Ha ha, this is all God's will."

After sitting down with Zhao Yixing, Yang Yu looked at the house where he was. This stone house was life-threatening and was originally the best one in the whole Linshan cottage. Although it was only a single room, the area was not small, and it was magnificently decorated. Yang Yu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yes, Mr. Zhao lives in this house."

Zhao Yixing immediately stood up again and shook his hand repeatedly, "I dare not care. I am grateful to be free. How dare I live here?"

After Yang Yu pressed Zhao Yixing down again, he said, "Mr. Zhao, I have told you several times. Don't be polite to me. Also, don't call me the head of the family. You can call me Yang Yu or Xiao Yang. Let me tell you this. If it hadn't been for you, there would be no mine today. How can I neglect you? Ah, just rest assured to cultivate here."

After Zhao Yixing sat down, he said carefully, "Big head, oh, Brother Yang, how did you get here? I heard that you have killed him? Do you also plan to be a good man who robs the rich and helps the poor in the future?

Yang Yu sighed and said, "Hey, the child is not as long as his mother. It's a long story. Let's talk about you first. Why is there nothing wrong with your escort? It has caused you to suffer for so long."

Zhao Yixing sighed heavily and said, "Oh, don't mention it. I have never walked through the Jinshui River. Although I know that the Jinshui River Road has ten times the benefits, I am old and timid, but I have never thought of making money in the Jinshui River. Who knows that my business has been hit hard in the past two years, but it has been maintained. I can't go any further. In order not to give my life's painstaking efforts, I have no choice but to take the risk of gambling. Then I collected some money and wanted to make a trip to the Jinshui River Commercial Road to make a big profit to solve the danger of my business.

The cost of hiring a guard walking on the Jinshui River is high. My wealth is still insufficient. After buying the goods, I can't hire too many guards, so I hired 60 people in a small guard bank in Texas. Boss Su, the escort walked through the Jinshui River Road. According to him, as long as he handed over the road to buy goods , you are not afraid of becoming famous horse bandits. You just need to guard against small stock thieves. If you encounter small stock thieves, 60 guards can also ensure that there is no fear. When you meet a large horse bandits, you only need to pay the money to buy the road, but you don't need too many guards. In addition to being shy in my pocket, I also listen to Boss Su's words and prepare the money to buy the way. After that, I came to this Jinshuihe Commercial Road, and it was safe all the way. As Boss Su said, after handing in the money to buy the road, the bandits would not be too difficult for me and went to the ghost gate smoothly.

After arriving at the ghost gate, the goods I brought were ten times more profitable. Although 60% or 70% of the goods were handed over to the bandits, as long as I could go back safely, it was worth the trip. I dared not go to the depths of Xiyi. In order to return to my hometown as soon as possible, I closed the goods at the ghost gate. After selling his hand, he changed it into gold and had to go back. Unexpectedly, as soon as he crossed the Dinghai Bridge, he met a man who urged him to order him. I wanted to buy the road as usual, but who knew that the order made his men kill directly, but he did not follow the rules. Boss Su and others were caught off guard and failed to escape. Then, I was brought here."

Yang Yu frowned slightly and said, "Mr. Zhao, I don't know anything about this business, but I think how can I tell the rules with the horse bandit? If you carry goods, the horse bandits may collect the money to buy the road and let you go. But if all the money they bring are cash, how can the horse bandits not rob them? Mr. Zhao, I think you have miscalculated.

Zhao Yixing sighed and said, "Alas, Boss Su promised that the Ma bandits were also rulesy, but I trusted him too much, but then again, I was eager to use cash silver to overcome the crisis. If I bring Xiyi's goods back to China, it would be slightly safer, but I had to sell them after I went back. It will take some time for me to be anxious for a moment before I brought all the cash back. It can't be all Boss Su's fault.

At this time, Ma Liu smiled awkwardly and said, "Mr. Zhao, in fact, as a horse bandit, there is indeed a rule for a horse bandit. It is a rule to pay money without killing or robbery, and no matter which horse team, this rule must be said, otherwise the caravan passing by will be robbed severely and will not dare to go to the golden water in the future. Isn't the commercial road of the river killing chickens to get eggs? However, I know the inside story of the reason why Mr. Zhao will be killed and robbed of money. Well, it was mentioned when the Lu family came to receive the goods. It is said that there is a caravan full of gold and silver without goods, which can all be robbed and urged to get the news, which killed people and robbed the money.

Yang Yu and Zhao Yixing were stunned. Yang Yu said in a low voice, "It's the Lu family again. What's going on with the Lu family? Why do they have them for everything?"

Zhao Yixing said with an angry face and said, "So that's it. The Lu family is really conscienceless and hateable. I understand. No wonder."

"What's the wonder? Has Mr. Zhao ever had a conflict with the Lu family?

Zhao Yixing shook his head and said hatefully, "There is no conflict. When I shipped the goods to the ghost gate and took action on the spot, the Lu family once came to ask for the purchase of my goods, but the price they offered was at least 20% lower than that of the others. How am I willing to do it? The steward of the Lu family did not say much, just sneered a few times. Then he left, but he didn't expect that he would let his life plunder us here.

Ma Liu whispered, "Mr. Zhao, let me tell you this. The urging Biao has always been a traitor with the Lu family. Anyone who offends the Lu family or does not like the Lu family will send a letter to urge Biao to plunder. Although urging Biao does not directly obey the Lu family, it will not refute the face of the Lu family, not to mention If you have money, why not do it? In recent years, as long as small-scale caravans are shipped at the ghost gate, they have to sell them to the Lu family at a low price. Those large-scale and hard-way caravans Lujia will not provoke them and pick small merchants like you to do it. As long as they don't obey, the Lu family will be urged to death. In recent years, small caravans have done this, and no one dares to disobey the Lu family. It means that if not, how can the Lu family develop so fast? I don't think the guard you are looking for is an old guest, otherwise he should know this and let you sell the goods to the Lu family.

Zhao Yixing's face was full of anger and said, "There is no such reason. There is no reason for this. This is still business. Is it obviously a robbery? How can there be such a business?"

Zhao Yixing was furious, but Yang Yu was thoughtful. At this time, Yang Dazui and Gao Yongming brought several slaves with newly made wine and vegetables. Yang Yu, who had been working hard to kill each other all night, was already hungry. At this time, when he saw the wine and vegetables coming, he was refreshed and immediately said, "Come on, I'm almost hungry, Zhao Sir, come on, let's talk while eating. Big Mouth and Fatty also sit down. Oh, call both Lang Qing and Bao Wei. Let's drink some wine with Mr. Zhao to shock Mr. Zhao.

Ma Liu quickly went to invite Baowei and Lang Qing. After Ma Liu poured wine to all the people present, he stood aside, but regarded himself as a little guy pouring wine. Yang Yu looked at Ma Liu and thought about it for a moment, but said, "Ma Liu also sit down. You can also drink with Mr. Zhao. Two cup."

Ma Liu was overjoyed and knew that Yang Yu regarded him as his own person. After thanking him happily, he sat down.

After Yang Yu picked up the wine glass and introduced Zhao Yixing to Lang Qing and Bao Wei, Yang Yu said to Zhao Yixing, "Mr. Zhao, I don't know how much money you have lost on this trip?"

Zhao Yixing has been a slave in Linshan for two months. He has been hungry for a long time. At this time, after three rounds of wine, regardless of his image, he was chewing, but when he heard Yang Yu's question, he didn't even smell like eating meat. He put down his chopsticks and said listlessly, "Oh, I came here, but 100,000 taels The money has been lost, but it is enough to leave this old life.

After thinking about it, Yang Yu said lightly to Zhao Yixing, "Mr. Zhao and I have great kindness. Well, I don't intend to repay you. You will raise it here for a while. After you are well, I will find a way to send you back. Mr. Zhao doesn't have to worry about money. When you go back, take 200,000 taels of gold back. Yes."
