Back Off, Let Me Come

Chapter 139 139: Escort tax money? 【Ask for monthly ticket】

Zhai Le didn't leave empty-handed.

There are two altars on the left hand and two altars on the right hand, and they come back fully loaded.

With a flexible leap, he easily climbed over the low wall and jumped into the wall. Before he could stand firm, a very familiar face appeared in his sight. He almost lost his footing, and the relaxed smile on his face froze slightly, and he stood still consciously.

Call the person softly: "Brother..."

Zhai Huan was still dressed as an elegant scholar. When he saw such a big cousin coming in from outside the wall, his expression was calm, and he was not surprised at all by the way Zhai Le appeared.

"Xiao Fang, are you having fun outside these days?"

Zhai Le smiled broadly and stepped forward boldly: "Happy. Brother, let me tell you, Brother Shen is so funny. I have never seen anyone as interesting as him. Very interesting."

Zhai Le couldn't help but smile when he mentioned the experience of the past few days, and his peach blossom eyes, which were naturally smiling, were even more sparkling.

He sat down opposite his cousin.

I happily share my pig farming experience with Zhai Huan.

Zhai Huan: "...???"

When his cousin said that Mr. Shen knew how to slaughter pigs, his expression just froze for a moment. But when his cousin said that he had also learned the art of pig-raising, he had seven females and nine males in one morning, a total of sixteen piglets...Zhai Huan's many years of emotional control almost failed.

He rubbed his eyebrows with a headache: "Is that fun?"

Zhai Le thought about it seriously: "It's actually not fun at all. The pig's scream was too shrill and harsh. Just looking at Brother Shen's seriousness in cutting the pig, I felt that this job was quite interesting."

No matter how boring things are, it will be interesting if someone is with you.

Zhai Huan's lips moved but didn't say anything.

But Zhai Le understood him, even if his cousin didn't say anything.

Working with pigs is indeed not a high-level job. It is even dirty and tiring. After all, you are dealing with that thing. But if, as Brother Shen said, ordinary people from ordinary families can also eat delicious non-vegetarian food, what does it mean to be dirty and tiring?

only--

There was only one thing that puzzled him. Who was the first person to discover that cooked pork tastes delicious? What thoughts and purposes did this person have in carving his own pig?

Seeing that his cousin was silent, Zhai Le thought about his plan with a smile on his handsome face: "If the minced pork tastes really good, we can raise more of it in the future. Brother Shen also said that it can be slaughtered in six or seven months. Wouldn't it be a year?" Can you raise two wheels? This is better than other meat animals."

He was a little thirsty when he spoke, and then he realized that there was an end game on the chessboard, a cup of slightly hot tea at hand, and even the mat he was sitting on was still warm. He raised his head and looked around: "Are there any guests?"

Zhai Huan said: "Yeah."

"Is the person gone?"

Zhai Le was embarrassed and hesitated to get up.

Zhai Huan waved his hand to signal him not to get up: "Just leaving."

"Oh, luckily."

If you come back earlier, let your cousins ​​and friends see that you don’t go through the front door and like to climb over the wall, it is easy to leave a bad impression.

Zhai Huan asked: "Xiao Fang is not curious who that person is?"

"Brother, I feel safe making friends."

He always trusts his cousin and does not pay too much attention to his interpersonal relationships. Anyway, as long as he knows that his brother will not suffer any disadvantages, he will not interfere when he makes friends with him.

Although Zhai Le didn't ask, how could Zhai Huan hide it from his best cousin, and wrote lightly: "It's the county guard."

Zhai Le was stunned: "The Sheriff? The Sheriff of Sibao County?"

Zhai Huan nodded in acknowledgment: "Well, it's him."

"He wants to recruit brother?"

It's not that Zhai Le looks down on people, but that he doesn't like the sheriff of Sibao County. My elder brother is not a humble scholar without foundation, and it is not without foundation in his home country in the southeast. If it was really an olive branch, it would be a bit funny.

Zhai Huan lowered his eyes and said: "There is no solicitation."

I hinted at it several times but he declined.

Zhai Le muttered: "It would be better if I didn't. I always feel that this person is not very decent. He acts in a secretive manner and acts like a villain. Although I believe that my brother will not suffer any loss, it is hard to guard against people who do bad things. This visit is just for a visit. Friends, or do you have another purpose?"

Zhai Huan saw his cousin's posture of preparing to guard against death, he was quite amused and said: "There is another purpose."

Zhai Le frowned slightly.

I don’t know if I should ask what the purpose is.

Zhai Huan confessed first: "He said that Sibao County was short of personnel. The Gong family had escaped and the traitors had not yet been caught, so they needed to send more manpower to search. In addition, there were unrest and hidden dangers in the county. At that time, it was really difficult to mobilize too many troops... so he wanted to invite You and I do him a favor."

Ask these two brothers for help? ? ?

What needs this kind of force lineup? ? ?

What's even more strange is that two young scholars and warriors who have traveled here should be asked to help such a big event...

It's actually a bit baffling.

"How can I help? No matter how nervous Sibao County is about using troops, it shouldn't be difficult to transfer thousands of people, right? What about the garrison in the county?"

Most of the brave fighters will choose to join the army. It is difficult for the outside world to see, but the garrison is not uncommon. Taking the seventh-class officials as an example, the garrison of Sibao County can also pick out one or two. If it is not easy to transfer the seventh-class officials, what about the fifth-class officials and sixth-class officials?

Why ask for any foreign aid? ? ?

"Help escort a batch of supplies..." Zhai Huan paused and then said, "This batch of supplies is very important. The county guard attaches great importance to it and has mobilized all available troops. He was just worried about an accident, so he asked me to wait. Help...mostly with tax dollars."

The county guard didn't directly say what he was escorting, but Zhai Huan roughly guessed it based on the information leaked by the county guard's flashing words.

Zhai Le gasped when he heard the last word.

"Tax bank, this, this—"

His intuition told him not to take this muddy water.

So he said solemnly: "Even the county governor himself said that the forces in the territory are unstable. If the tax money is really escorted... isn't this a lice on the bald man's head, an obvious target???"

Why don't you send your own troops to escort?

I'm really afraid of being robbed and escorted by heavy soldiers!

Zhai Huan's expression was unmoved at first, and he almost choked when he heard the next words. He couldn't help but asked in a funny voice: "The... thing on the bald man's head, Xiaofang, where did you learn this witticism?"

"Learned from Brother Shen." Zhai Le "betrayed" Shen Tang without hesitation, "Brother, this is not important. If it is really tax money, I don't know how many eyes and ears in Sibao County are watching... If we take this It’s a hot potato, doesn’t it make yourself unhappy?”

Zhai Huan: "..."

It's this brother Shen Youli again.

From the looks of it, the two are really having fun.

"Brother, I wanted to refuse...but, it's really hard to refuse such kindness. The escort is a fake team, so there shouldn't be any big problem. Besides - wouldn't it be better if something really happened?" After that, The young man's dark eyes seemed to have a flash of light, "This county guard is cunning and cherishes his life. He will ensure that the bonded silver is foolproof, so he will not be unprepared for any means."

"Fake team?" When Zhai Le heard that it was a fake team, he was secretly relieved. It wasn't his conspiracy theory. He was really afraid that their brother would become a "scapegoat." However, what his cousin said made him a little puzzled.

I mean, bro, looking forward to something bad? ? ?

I found that Zhai Le and Zhai Huan are too easy to type wrongly. Let me pick and correct them again.
