Chapter 2025 Make Money Together
Two miles away from the gate of the guardhouse, people were already crowding around. There were various vehicles parked in the open space nearby, including horse-drawn carriages, mule carts, ox carts, and flat carts.
However, it stopped very neatly, did not occupy the road, and did not cause any confusion, because some guardsmen waved their flags and said to everyone: "The carriage stopped here, and saw that there is no white line drawn on this plaster." , park within the white line, and do not exceed the line, otherwise the road will be blocked."
"Stop the bullock cart on the right, tie up the bullocks and horses, don't get together, don't make a fuss, otherwise something big will happen if the bullocks and horses are frightened!"
Yao Baihu's soldiers shouted until their voices were almost hoarse. After shouting, they had to bang the gong several times to calm the people who came to the guardhouse.
But too many people came, hundreds of them already.
The more than 100 people who were stopped rushed to the roadblock and asked all kinds of questions: "Brothers, when are you going to let us in? We are all from the brothers' guard, and we have guard badges. Those who came here are not Xinzuo, it’s not good for you to stop us like this, isn’t it?”
"We don't do anything. We just heard that your guard collects soil and firewood, so we can sell some soil and firewood."
"Yeah, we don't have bad intentions, we just want to sell something for money. Let us in quickly."
There were too many people asking questions and it was noisy. The soldiers in the roadblock were so excited that they hurriedly beat the gongs.
Dang, Dang, Dang!
"Everyone, be quiet, be quiet! Yao Baihu will be here soon, please wait."
As they were talking, a soldier from behind shouted: "Yao Baihu and Doctor Mutong are here!"
Yao Baihu and the others came on horseback. After seeing a large group of people in front of the roadblock, Yao Baihu sighed: "Thanks to Madam's foresight, let us start stopping people two miles away. If we wait until one mile before stopping people, I’m afraid I can’t stop you.”
There are many traps behind the Yili sentry post. If the cattle and horses are frightened and rush into the back of the Yili sentry post and step on the traps, there will be casualties.
clang clang clang, the soldiers hurriedly beat the gongs and said to the people outside the roadblock: "We Yao Baihu are here, and Dr. Mutong, who is in charge of the green brick business, is also here. Please be quiet and follow the instructions we have given you." Wooden sign numbers, come one by one!"
There were too many people, and they couldn't hear what they were saying. The guard station gave them wooden signs, and they were called on a first-come, first-served basis. It was fair.
Yao Baihu looked at the noisy crowd, frowned, drew his sword and raised it high, shouting: "Who is the No. 1 wood? Come forward quickly, the others retreat and stand ten feet away, waiting. If you violate the rules, you will be punished." We won’t accept anything you bring!”
This voice shouted so loudly that everyone present was stunned.
The guardsmen took the opportunity to beat the gongs, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang clang, the soldiers of the guard station. After first shocking them with the sound of the gong, they repeated Yao Baihu's words. Everyone finally understood and became quiet.
The man holding the No. 1 sign came over. He was wearing armor. Look at the feathers on his helmet. It was also a general flag: "I have seen Yao Baihu. He is the general flag of Shigang Guard. His surname is Bu. We Qianhu heard that Changliangwei was harvesting clay, so they specially dug a batch of clay and asked us to send it over. I would like to ask if you will collect it?"
Yao Baihu dismounted and came to the roadblock. He took the military badge and the personal letter from Shigang Guard Qianhu that he handed over. After confirming that it was correct, he smiled and said: "If the clay is good, our guard station will naturally accept it. Let's take a look first." Clay bar.”
Bu Zongqi was surprised: "Is this it?"
So simple?
He thought that if Chang Liangwei stopped the big guy like this, it might take some twists and turns to sell the land, but he didn't expect that Yao Baihu would collect the land as soon as he opened his mouth.
Yao Baihu said: "As long as the clay is good, our health center will take it."
In the past two days, several wealthy families have come to buy green bricks. Baking green bricks requires a lot of clay, firewood, and water, so as long as these three things are sent to them, they will accept them if there are no problems.
but……
"You have to look at the clay first. If the clay is not good, we won't accept it." Yao Baihu said again: "Look at a few bags first. After deciding to buy, I will put your convoy in and wait until the camp in front of the guard gate. Check all the clay you sent again."
"Sure, I'll have someone bring the clay here." Bu Zongqi turned to his soldiers and shouted, "Bring us ten bags of clay and show it to Yao Baihu."
"Hey, it's here!" The soldiers of Shigang Guard were very happy. They heard that a bag of clay could be sold for thirty cents, so they brought 136 bags over. If Chang Liang Guard collected them all, they could Got four taels of silver.
Although it doesn't sound like much, it is what the relatives are looking forward to.
"Yao Baihu, take a look." Bu Zongqi untied the sack and showed Yao Baihu the soil inside.
Yao Baihu, Uncle Mutong, and Lu Da watched together.
After reading all ten bags of clay, Lu Dadao said, "Not bad, it's similar to what Dajiwei sent. I can give you thirty cents per bag."
After hearing this, Yao Baihu said to General Bu, "We'll take the thirty cents per bag and drive your convoy in."
The Shigang Guard soldiers were very happy and shouted: "Collect it, really collect it, our soil has been sold!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was very excited: "I really accepted it, I'm not lying, we came to the right place."
When they first heard the rumor, they thought it was false. On the way to send the soil, they were still worried that Chang Liang Wei would not accept it and their trip would be in vain. Now they are relieved.
Dang, Dang, Dang!
The soldier carrying the gong banged the gong again and shouted: "Brothers, you can rest assured. As long as the items are good, our guard station will accept them. You are not lying."
Then he shouted: "Everyone in front should give way. Let Shigangwei's convoy come in first. Come one by one. Don't be anxious!"
Oh my God, after he's done with his work, he has to go to the pharmacy tent to get some medicine, otherwise he'll be speechless when he gets up tomorrow.
Seeing that Shigangwei's land was really sold, everyone felt relieved. They all made way for Shigangwei's convoy to pass, and urged: "Brother, hurry up, we are still waiting!"
"Hey." The people from Shigang Guard responded, and soon led the horses, passed the roadblock, and drove the carriage, led by Yao Baihu's soldiers, towards the gate of the guard house.
Dang, Dang, Dang!
"Brothers from the No. 2 wooden plate, come here!" the soldiers shouted again, beating the gong.
The person who got the second wood card was none other than the neighboring Grizzly Guard.
Grizzly Guard is here to sell water, and here is Shi Sanzhong's second son, Shi Erming.
Shi Erming was young, only fourteen years old. Because of Zhuang Qianhu's misdeeds, Grizzly Bear Wei had to deliver water to Changliang Wei every day... Now that they were selling water again, it felt a little wrong no matter how they thought about it.
However, his family was of modest means and could not afford a large sum of money to support his relatives. The relatives wanted to make some money, so they had no choice but to come over and sell water.
"Greetings to Yao Baihu, this junior is Shi Erming, the second son of Grizzly Bear Guard Shi Qianhu..." After announcing his family name, he handed over his military badge and his father's post, and continued bravely: "This junior is here to sell water. Yes, do you accept it?"
The little one almost couldn't hear the last two words. His head was still lowered and he was almost buried in his heart.
