Chapter 29 Provocation

After the temporary nest in Zhaojiabao, these women are much richer. They not only have porridge and miscellaneous noodles to eat, but also eat a little meat from time to time, and even drink a bowl of bone soup at night. There are also some dishes made by wild vegetables dug by women from the mountain, and these women are more skilled than Jin. The doctor is much better, and the taste is also much better than before. For these people, this is undoubtedly a very rich meal.

So these days, everyone's mood has become much better, and they get along well with each other. When it comes to dinner, everyone queues up to receive their own food, and then gathers together to eat and chat. Even the newcomers gradually come out of the grief of losing their loved ones.

But on this day, when Xiao Tianjian was busy for a day, he queued up to get his own meal like others. When he took chopsticks and picked up a chopsticks of wild vegetables into his mouth, he immediately frowned, so he immediately greeted Master Jin and said, "Mr. Jin! Come here!"

Mr. Jin trotted to Xiao Tianjian, bowed his head and replied, "At this! Boss! What can I do for you?"

"Why is this wild vegetable so light? It's tasteless. How can I eat it? Didn't I say that? Now the big guys practice very hard every day and sweat a lot. Do you need to add more salt to this meal? What's going on?" Xiao Tianjian put his chopsticks away and scolded Jin Fuzi.

Jin Fuzi looked embarrassed. He nodded and replied stammerly, "If you go back to the plate, the little one also knows to put more salt!" It's just that our salt is almost finished! The small one can only save some money, otherwise, the remaining salt will not last for two days!"

Xiao Tianjian frowned even more. If it hadn't been for what Jin Fuzi said today, he would have really ignored this matter. He just wanted to make food, but forgot to collect more salt to supplement his needs. At present, the world is not like the stable era. If you have money, you can buy salt. Now let alone the war is in chaos. The price of salt alone is difficult for ordinary people to afford, but now they are not short of money, but if they want to buy salt, they can't buy it if they don't go to the town or the county.

Eating without salt is a big problem for them. Xiao Tianjian is training his subordinates. Everyone has a lot of exercise every day, and now the weather is gradually starting to warm up. Everyone sweats a lot during the practice. The demand for salt will be relatively large. The direct result of eating without salt is that people will be weak. , dizziness, serious muscle **, and even kill people.

So this matter is by no means a small problem, and it must be solved as soon as possible.

When Xiao Tianjian was eating, he gathered all his men to his side, told everyone about their current lack of salt, and asked everyone to think of a way to see how to get enough salt.

A group of subordinates are mixed with opinions, but they usually go to towns or counties to exchange things for some salt to eat. Some people propose to simply grab large households. Large families will definitely have a lot of salt, but Xiao Tianjian now feels that it is better to practice some of these men first, and then take them out to do something. It is better to reduce some losses.

In the end, Jin Fuzi submissively expressed an opinion, that is, to send people to the nearest townships in Liyang County or to buy some salt in the county, and sell the cattle they don't need now.

When they came back from Zhaojiabao, they got back more than a dozen cows. At present, they have no land to cultivate, and they have to divide their manpower to herd cattle. Although they don't consume much food, it is not a way to raise them like this.

Originally, Xiao Tianjian wanted to kill and eat, but he didn't expect that it attracted unanimous opposition from everyone. Later, Xiao Tianjian thought about it and realized that it was illegal to kill cattle in ancient times. Cultivating cattle must have the permission of the government. When it is really impossible to work, it can be handed over to the butcher for slaughter, and this Helping people used to be farmers. They had an innate feeling for ploughing cattle. They thought it was too much to kill cattle, so no one was willing to kill these ploughing cattle.

Xiao Tianjian is really funny about everyone's opposition to the idea of killing cattle. They are all bandits now. They are actually thinking about bullshit and killing cattle is illegal. The officers and soldiers are killed. Why do you care about this?

So Xiao Tianjian didn't care whether they were willing or not, and resolutely wanted to keep these cows. After turning back and solving the salt problem, he slaughtered and ate meat.

Although everyone is reluctant to agree with Xiao Tianjian's order, no one dares to insist on opposing it. After all, after the cow is killed, the meat still needs to be eaten by them, so there is meat to eat. It is a great blessing these days. No one will think that eating meat is not good.

After discussing with the crowd, Xiao Tianjian finally decided to let Jin Fuzi, Shi Ran and Feng Gouzi go out and buy some salt from the nearest place. The reason why he chose the two of them was that Mr. Jin used to be an accountant and had some experience in dealing with businessmen, and it seemed that It will not be suspected that it is more convenient to do this, and Shi Ran is relatively calm after Xiao Tianjian's observation during this period of time, and Feng Gouzi is the most familiar with the situation in this area. It should be the most appropriate for the three of them to do this.

After the matter was settled, Xiao Tianjian asked Jin Fuzi to bring twenty taels of silver and a donkey out of the mountain to do this matter. Xiao Tianjian also continued to practice hard in the mountain with his group of people.

But things often don't go with people's wishes. Just two and a half days after Jin Fuzi and the other two went out, Shi Ran and Feng Gouzi ran back in confusion. As soon as they returned to the nest, they knelt in front of Xiao Tianjian and pleaded guilty to Xiao Tianjian.

Xiao Tianjian heard that only the two of them came back, so he was shocked and quickly called them in front of them and asked what had happened. Why did the two of them come back? Why didn't Jin Fuzi come back?

Shi Ran pointed to Feng Gouzi angrily and replied to Xiao Tianjian, "Palm the plate! It was all caused by this guys. After the three of them came out of the mountain, they went straight to Nanfang Town. Nothing had happened on the road, but this guys had a lot of trouble. When they met an acquaintance, they got close to each other and showed off how he was before! He also said that we were in business, but the man turned out to be a piece of poles. We didn't go to Nanfang Town, and we were stopped by dozens of poles. They robbed the silver we bought for salt, but also withheld Jinfuzi and let us go back, saying that we should take a hundred taels of silver to redeem people. Otherwise, I'm going to kill Master Jin!"

Feng Gouzi was so scared that he was pale at this moment. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly. He scrambled and argued, "Palm the plate, this matter is not a big deal!" On the way, the little one met an acquaintance who had drunk with the little one before. The little one didn't expect that he would do this, and he was even more like us. As a result, this happened! The palm plate should be the master of the small one!"

Xiao Tianjian suddenly became angry at this time. He was not angry with Feng Gouzi, but he didn't expect that the first time he sent someone out to do something, he did this. At least they also did this job. Unexpectedly, they would be blackmailed and kidnapped by his people. What a bullshit ransom was required. This meat kidnapper Things like them are often done, but at least they have to be separated! You can't be so imless, even tie up your colleagues!

"Let's not talk about this. Is it Feng Gouzi's responsibility? Let's not talk about it for the time being. Do you know what's the reason for robbing your pole? And when they robbed you, did you show them the foundation?" Xiao Tianjian interrupted their quarrel and asked them harshly.

Shi Ran saw that Xiao Tianjian was furious, so he closed his mouth, but Feng Gouzi quickly replied, "If you go back to the plate, the little ones said it! When the little one met the acquaintance, he lied to him that the little one was now doing business with others. Later, after they robbed us, the little one showed them a sign, saying that we also did this! However, their palm plate did not buy our accounts at all, but still robbed our silver. The donkey was also robbed by them, and they also detained Master Jin. He said that if he didn't redeem money, he would become Master Jin!

The little one has heard of their palm plate. Their palm plate is surnamed Sha, and their name is Sha Erbao. They are from the area of Liyang County. In the past, I heard that this Sha Erbao is also a large family. I didn't expect that he also did this now. The small one saw that he had at least 70 or 80 subordinates. When we left, his men privately called him Sha Potian. It must be the nickname of Sha Erbao!"

After listening to Feng Gouzi's words, Shi Ran also continued, "Feng Gouzi's words are true. On the way back, the little ones also explored the tone of several guys who escorted us. They told me that they were just around Nanfang Town. No one didn't know their strength. Let's be careful. It's better to send silver honestly. In the past, but there are not too many of them. According to their own boast, there are about 80 people!"

Xiao Tianjian was so angry that he thought that the man surnamed Sha was too arrogant. The well water on both of them did not violate the river. He just wanted to buy some salt on his side, but he actually wanted to rob it. It seemed that this bandit was not necessarily moral.

"So did they ask us to go somewhere to pay the money to redeem people?" Xiao Tianjian continued to ask.

"I said it! Na Sha Erbao said, let's take the silver and go to the mountain temple north of Nanfang Town to redeem people in three days. He also said that it would be a deadline. Let's wait for Jinfuzi's body!" Shi Ran replied quickly.

"Fit! If the tiger doesn't be powerful, it still think we are sick cats! Since he dares to tie up our people, then if we pretend to be grandchildren, we can't fool around in the future! Gather all together!" Xiao Tianjian smiled angrily and turned around and shouted.

With Xiao Tianjian's roar, his men immediately flocked over and quickly arranged in two rows in front of him.

"Brothers! Today, someone bullied us. Someone robbed the silver we bought for salt and tied Mr. Jin's meat ticket, and asked us to take the money to redeem people! This is a provocation to us. What do you think we should do?" Xiao Tianjian stood in front of the queue angrily and shouted at the group of people at the top of his voice.
