Chapter 121 Talent

There are fifty people in the transportation team now. Under Zhang Liang's training, although they are not as skilled as martial arts, they are still very imposing. I dare not say that they can fight against several people, at least they are not afraid of the refugees.

However, as the Chinese New Year is approaching, Jiang Yang doesn't want to take everyone on the risk.    If those refugees are desperate and hurt one or two of them, it's not worth it.

But what Jiang Yang didn't know was that it was not just the hungry refugees who were targeting them.

The land of Minzhou is known as "eight mountains, one water, one part of the land". Not only are there many wild animals in the mountains, but there are also many bandits.

But there are differences between the bandits.

One type is like Boss Shen and others, which are gathered by local mountain people, who rob and extort on weekdays, but never hurt people's lives, and are also called village bandits.

Another type is the murderer who is mostly composed of deserters and fugitives. They hide in the mountains, specializing in robbing wealthy businessmen who sometimes dare to take action on taxes from the government.

The Jiang Dong and his brothers had long heard that there was a group of rural bandits nearby, so they searched around the mountains, hoping to find them to make things difficult for Jiang Yang.

But they didn't know that they had scattered. The two brothers were chased by Jiang Yun and fell and were ill for more than a month.

After recovering from the illness, the two began to search again.

I don’t know if they should praise their perseverance, but he really found a group of bandits - real bandits.

The two brothers discovered by the bandits who were being tracked down were kneeling on the ground by two bandits pointing their sharp guns, raising their hands high and daring to move.

"Good man, please spare me. If you have something to say, we brothers are here to give gifts to the boss, the gifts..." Jiang Xi said with a pale face.

The two bandits looked at each other, searched the two of them all, and found only two pieces of dry food.

"Is this what you said?" One of the bandits said coldly.

"No, no, no, it's news. We are here to send the news! There is a wealthy family in our village who took a cart of goods to the dock this morning and will turn around tomorrow. We have inquired, and their trip is at least fifty taels!" Faced with the sharp gun that was approaching a few points, Jiang Dong hurriedly said, fearing that his life would be gone if it was too late.

"Fifty taels? Fifty taels are worth a trip?" The bandit said disdainfully, "But you two can actually touch the vicinity of our village, but they are a bit capable..."

I dare not say that they were two brothers who got lost because they were chased by wild boars:...

"Why are you talking so much nonsense to them? Hurry up and get rid of it." Another bandit said impatiently.

Jiang Dong and the other two were shocked, "Wait, hero, wait, that rich family has a workshop, which must be more than fifty taels, and at least one hundred taels, no, two hundred taels! There are still people in their family who can grow mushrooms, and they make a lot of money!"

When they heard the workshop and mushrooms, the two bandits paused, "Are you from Lingkou Village?"

When the bandits knew about their village, they didn't dare to hide it. They exaggeratedly said about the deeds of Jiang Yang's family.

But Lei Hu, who was secretly followed, heard it clean. Thinking of Jiang Yun's remarks about the holiday with the two brothers, Lei Hu thought it was not good.

Seeing that the two were plucked into the mountain village, and knew that they could not get out for the time being, Lei Hu simply turned around and left.

...

In the village, the boss is dealing with a subordinate who is trying to escape from the village.

When the two brothers were taken in, they happened to see the boss slashing the man's head with a knife.

The round head fell to the ground and rolled all the way to the two of them, which scared them so much that they screamed on the spot.

While wiping the blood from the knife, the boss raised his eyes and looked at the two of them. When they met his eyes, they immediately shut up.

Seeing that it was two strange faces, the feet were wet again, and the boss frowned, "What's going on?"

One of the bandits came forward to report.

After hearing the whole story, the boss raised his eyebrows, "Is that Jiang Silang who sells real goods from your village?"

The two brothers were frightened silly, their minds were filled with the rolling heads and blood-splitting necks, wishing they had never entered the mountain today.

But it's just thinking about it.

They not only entered the mountain, but also entered the mountain village.

After being asked a lot of questions, the two were directly locked up in the prison cell of the village.

"Brother, are you interested in Jiang Silang?" asked the second head of the army.

They hid in the mountains, and Jiang Yang and his actions of collecting mountain bacteria and digging bamboo shoots could not be concealed by them.

At first, they looked down on Jiang Yang's family, but later they heard that Jiang Yang and the others were trained to escort themselves, and the villagers were united and could not be easily messed with, so they also stopped.

The best target for bandits like them is the kind of locally unfounded and passing merchants who rob it. As long as it is not too much, they will not attract targets from the government.

If there are no merchants, they will sometimes focus on nearby villages and take advantage of the autumn harvest to grab some food, but like a united village, they are more cautious and will not easily attack.

Unless the entire village can be destroyed.

But is it worth it for Jiang Yang’s family background?

The second head of the army thought to himself and asked.

"It's not worth it for money, but people are worth it." The boss said with a playful look on his face. "You can farm, do business, and train teams. Such a talent without power is rare."

The second leader thought about something.

Although it is easy for them to make money, life is not easy.

First, they are not good at farming, and second, they are not good at managing, and it is difficult to deal with the many assets they stolen.

Sometimes I have no income for one or two months, and I don’t even have enough food to fill my stomach.

After a year of running around, I licked blood from the knife every day, and was frightened and scared, and I had not had a few good days.

From this point of view, Jiang Silang is really a talent to them.

"Didn't it mean that Jiang Silang's niece is farmed?" said the subordinate next to him.

The boss laughed loudly and said, "Isn't the little lady better? What we lack the most in the village is a little lady who can manage the family?"

The subordinate immediately understood and smiled ambiguously, "I heard that Jiang Silang is good-looking, and the little lady in the family must be beautiful. It seems that there is an unmarried girl in his family..."

He seemed to treat the Jiang family as his belongings.

"Recently, the officialdom in Minzhou has been shocked, and refugees are everywhere. The government has probably not had time to control us, but it can do things." The second head of the army paused for a moment and said worriedly: "It's just that after the matter is done, how can we surrender him for our use?"

"Then I'll catch his family. Then I'll catch him a little lady as my wife. With a young lady, I won't be afraid of him running away. As for the young lady who is very strong... I'll know her well." The smile of the boss was playing, "Little lady, there's always a way to ask her to bow her head."

...

Lei Hu didn't know where Jiang Yun's home was, he only knew a general direction and could only look for it along that direction.

It happened that many people in the mountains picked mushrooms, and Lei Hu was not easy to reveal it. He only listened to their gossip in secret. He quickly locked in the villagers of Lingkou Village, followed them and found the village. Then he saw Jiang Yun standing in the field, waving hello to the villagers with a hoe...
