Chapter 271 Ten pounds of beef, nine and a half pounds of beef...
Zhai Wenlong was relieved to do things. In my opinion, Li Mi wrote clearly in the letter. As long as he handled according to Li Mi's letter and was more careful when handling things, there would be no problem.
Zhai Wenlong was not many people, and led a dozen minions who usually acted very clever. The group pretended to be merchants and set out all the way to the Shandong border.
Before Zhai Wenlong followed Zhai Rang to the mountain to become a bandit, he was doing business. Now he is like he has returned to his old business.
It is precisely because of his business that Zhai Wenlong pretended to be a merchant, so he could not see any clues, and no one could see any clues.
Nowadays, the road construction business in Shandong is in full swing. If the infrastructure projects are used, it will be equivalent to promoting the GDP of Shandong. Once the GDP rises, more people will travel to and from Shandong.
At this time, no matter in the county town on Shandong's borders, there were caravans everywhere. Zhai Wenlong's small caravan with more than a dozen people was inconspicuous at all. There were caravans with dozens or hundreds of people, and there were many.
The first person Zhai Wenlong came to Cao County. This Cao County is amazing. Although it was still a small county town during the Sui Dynasty, it was comparable to Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou in later generations, and was even known as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou Cao.
Today, during the Sui Dynasty, Cao County was not quite large. There were about a hundred miles of roads to be built in the territory of Cao County, which happened to be built by three groups of bandits.
"Have you found out clearly?" Outside Cao County, Zhai Wenlong asked his subordinates.
"Brother, I asked clearly. There are three bandits in total, Fenghuang Mountain, Luotuo Mountain, and Qingfeng Village. There are not many bandits in these three families, and the three families have only 300 or 400 people together. However, they have hired some people to work, and I think it should not be difficult to do it." said the minion.
Zhai Wenlong nodded, but was not in a hurry to do it. This is the first time you act, you must be careful. After having the first experience, you will be much simpler in your actions in the future.
"Don't rush to do something, let's go to the city first to see what we are talking about." Zhai Wenlong ordered his subordinates.
Zhai Wenlong and his group entered the county town of Caoxian, found an inn and settled down for the time being.
Zhai Wenlong and his group of more than a dozen people squeezed on two tables. This is not to say that Zhai Wenlong is stingy and insists on letting his subordinates squeeze. The main reason is that the inn is full of business and the hall is full of things.
Nowadays, there are many people who are building roads. Most of the people involved in building roads are bandits who don’t know how to save money. After they get their wages, they either eat and drink or go to brothels in the city.
"Brother, the courtesan in our Cao County said he wanted to redeem himself and marry me."
"Do you agree?"
"No, then how can I agree? This business is business, how can I talk about feelings?"
"Hey, brother, how much does it cost to spend a night like this courtesan?"
"This is a hang of money, yes, a hang of money."
"Tsk, the genius believes you, you can't even touch someone's little hands with a hang of money."
......
......
The inn was full of strong men. These people were bandits from various hills and the slack people hired by them. In short, the people present were almost all young and middle-aged.
Bandits build roads instead of government officials, which is the most rare thing in recent years. However, Shandong bandits are disciplined and there is no such thing as mercy in the people.
The disturbing people did not disturb the people, but after these men gathered together and drank some wine, the cow made a jingle sound.
"Man, come here?" Zhai Wenlong waved to the mate.
"Master, what are your instructions?" The guy came up and said with a smile.
Zhai Wenlong's group was very generous. The table was ordered with some good wine and dishes, so this guy naturally had to smile.
"What I want is beef, what is this?" Zhai Wenlong was so beautiful that he used chopsticks to pick up the food on the table.
"oh!"
"Are you a foreigner?" The guy didn't answer, but saw at a glance that Zhai Wenlong and others were not locals.
"Well, I'm a businessman. I heard that the business in Shandong is easy to do. Come and try it." Zhai Wenlong responded.
"Master, this is a beef. This is the characteristic of our Cao County. If you try it, it tastes much better than beef." The guy said hurriedly.
Zhai Wenlong tried to pick up a piece and taste it. The taste was indeed pretty good. However, the ten kilograms of beef, nine and a half kilograms of beef x were really too much.
Zhai Wenlong thought to himself, no wonder the people around him are so good at bragging. He dares to rob him because he eats this thing. How can he eat it?
After all, Zhai Wenlong came to Cao County with a purpose, so he didn't make any more conspiracy. After the guy sent him away, he began to think about how to talk to the group of people in front of him.
Zhai Wenlong's IQ is not as good as those literati and military advisors. However, among the bandits, it must be on the horizontal line. In addition, Zhai Wenlong had done business before, so he quickly found a way to get along with the road construction people.
Zhai Wenlong came in somewhere to pick up a batch of shoes, so he ran to the road construction site to sell shoes.
Building roads is a physical job, and shoes are broken very quickly, so the shoe selling business is naturally good. With Zhai Wenlong's shoes, they are sold cheaper than ordinary people. It was precisely this method that made Zhai Wenlong quickly become a group with these people.
After getting familiar with these road-building people, this matter will be much easier. After Zhai Wenlong became familiar with these people, he found out the temperament of these people. Those who like to take advantage of small gains, those who are slick, and those who are honest and loyal.
After understanding the temperaments and personalities of these people, Zhai Wenlong had made a preliminary plan, that those people could bribe, but those people could not.
After making the plan, Zhai Wenlong invited the people in his plan to buy them together. Of course, the name of this invitation was naturally to invite them to drink.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Zhai Wenlong waved his hand and brought a small wooden box from behind. Zhai Rang asked someone to open the small wooden box. The wooden box had thirty taels of gold, shining with gold, and it was almost blinding people's eyes.
"Several, tomorrow night, you will burn all the road construction tools in the warehouse, and then privately spread it, saying that the people from Camel Mountain are jealous of your progress, and people are burning your tools. In this way, you will share these thirty taels of gold." Zhai Wenlong said to the six or seven people in front of him.
These six or seven people were carefully selected by Zhai Wenlong. They were all people with poor character and greedy for money and forgetfulness.
Of course, Zhai Wenlong also kept a backup plan. At this time, the dozen people under his command were waiting outside the door with swords and swords. If these people disagreed, they would all be killed by swords and could not let them leak the news.
