Konoha's cannon fodder life

Chapter 78

"Thank you, thank you!"

Jiang Yuan kept thanking the groom who was driving the carriage, and then jumped into the carriage.There were several large boxes and some dry straw piled up on the carriage. Jiang Yuan found a handful of clean straw and put it under his buttocks, and chatted with the driver without saying a word.

"Uncle, is your birthday this year?"

"31."

"Oh, are there any children?"

"single."

······
The caravan stopped shortly after driving, and the impatient driver who was asked by Jiang Yuan jumped out of the carriage and walked forward.Jiang Yuan got up and stood on the carriage and looked forward. It should be almost night, and he was discussing whether to move forward.

The coachman came back after a while, holding a few pieces of hard bread and a pot of hot water in his hands, handed them to Jiang Yuan with a blank expression, and then continued to drive the carriage.Jiang Yuan was not too polite, first melted the bread with hot water, then put it in his mouth, and the bread was eaten within a few mouthfuls.

I don't know if the goods being transported are in a hurry or what. The carriages of the caravan don't rest until late in addition to replenishing drinking water, which makes Jiang Yuan a little strange. It stands to reason that the caravans are very careful on their way in this weather, and there is no risk of risking money and goods. blizzard.At night, the convoy stopped outside an abandoned house on the side of the road. The house was designed for people on the road to rest, and there were some dry firewood in it.

Jiang Yuan and several other members of the caravan were sitting by the fire, holding their own parcels in their arms, looking like a simple and honest boy who had no choice but to leave his hometown in order to make a living.

The middle-aged man who gave Jiang Yuan a ride came over, handed a wine bottle to the people around him, sat down, stared straight at Jiang Yuan and asked, "What's your name? Come looking for a job?"

Jiang Yuanhan smiled and said: "My name is Zhou, and there is no way to find work. This year because of the war, food is more expensive than in previous years, and my family is not very rich. You know, a young man like me But it was very edible, and there was nothing I could do at home, so I had no choice but to go out and find a job to support myself.”

The middle-aged man looked at Jiang Yuan, and his eyes stayed on Jiang Yuan's left leg wrapped in a thick bandage.

"What happened to your leg?"

Hearing this, Jiang Yuan was about to untie the bandage and said, "It was bitten by a dog in the village. That guy bit anyone when he was hungry, because the scar was too ugly, so I..."

"no need!"

The middle-aged man picked up a branch and lightly poked the burning fire and said, "Day, don't you want to find a job? Are you interested in joining our caravan? Although it is hard work, the reward is not as good as other industries very high."

"really?"

Jiang Yuan stood up excitedly, pretending to be at a loss and bowed to the middle-aged man to thank him, and also expressed his concern to the rest of the caravan. Everyone looked at the flustered Jiang Yuan with smiles.

The middle-aged man smiled and said: "My name is Shimada Nobu, and I am the leader of this caravan. You are welcome to join Hi-kun!"

----

Jiang Yuan, who got into the caravan, is very popular with other people, because Jiang Yuan suggested that he should keep watch tonight. There are many thieves and bandits during the war, and the caravan is also their key target.Since Jiang Yuan proposed the night watch, everyone also regarded it as Jiang Yuan's expression of joining the caravan.

In the middle of the night, everyone had already fallen asleep by the fire, and Jiang Yuan sat alone on the roof where the wind and snow were blowing, and it was pitch black in front of his eyes.A torch suddenly appeared in Jiang Yuan's field of vision. Shimada got scared from the wooden steps and handed Jiang Yuan a kettle.

"Take a break and leave it to me."

Under the light of the torch, Shimada's expression looked ferocious, like a red-faced evil spirit from hell.Jiang Yuan took a sip from the kettle, exchanged some pleasantries with him, then climbed down with his equipment in his arms, and walked into the smelly room to lie down.

Jiang Yuan didn't care about Shimada very much, he was just an ordinary person, even if he had any doubts about himself, he didn't dare to speak out, and Jiang Yuan thought Shimada didn't notice anything unusual.

Maybe it was because he was too tired, but Jiang Yuan felt warm all over his body after encountering the warm flames, and fell asleep unconsciously.When Jiang Yuan woke up, other people in the caravan were eating and handling horse goods, Shimada still greeted everyone like yesterday, and then handed them a piece of bread and hot water, and Jiang Yuan did the same.

After dealing with everything, Jiang Yuan realized that the sky was not completely bright yet, and he could barely see the road around him.Along the way, Jiang Yuan fulfilled his duty. When the carriage got stuck in the mud, he helped to push the cart, poked the snow stains off the wheels with a stick, and led the horse across the icy road.In just one day, Jiang Yuan's ability was praised by other members of the caravan. Shimada even secretly gave Jiang Yuan a small piece of beef jerky as a reward at dinner.

Jiang Yuan is also embarrassed, I just picked ladles for money. Although you like me, you should break up or break up. Otherwise, would I still help transport goods and make money to support Jiuzijiang?

Amidst the caravan's slow bells, Jiang Yuan finally arrived at Daming City, the capital of the Land of Fire, at noon on the third day after meeting the caravan.After Shimada paid 1 taels as the fee for the caravan to enter the city, Jiang Yuan followed the caravan to an inn. The goods and horses were put in the backyard, and Shimada also gave everyone three days off. He brought his trusted men to negotiate with the seller on the price of the goods, and before leaving, he gave Jiangyuan 5000 taels as a bonus.

Jiang Yuan stood there holding the 5000 taels of bills and was stunned. Brother, I was wrong, I will follow you for the rest of my life.I have done so many tasks through life and death, and the old guy of the third generation will not pay you any wages. You just helped drive the horse for two days and you paid 5000 taels.

"I'm a fucking ninja, and I'll ask the third generation to raise my salary when I get back." Jiang Yuan said secretly.

Seeing that Jiang Yuan got the bonus, other members of the caravan expressed that they would take Jiang Yuan out to experience the highest state of life. Seeing their smirks, Jiang Yuan knew it well.When they told them that there was a fiancée in their hometown and they wanted to keep the money, those people also understood Jiang Yuan very well.

They have worked in caravans for most of their lives, and they have been bumping and wandering. A family is also a luxury for them.Since Jiang Yuan's fiancée, they are not willing to force others to make things difficult, one by one said that they must see Jiang Yuan's fiancée when they have time, and then they cheered and went out to find the happiness in their hearts.

After everyone left, Jiang Yuan waited in the inn until sunset, put on Anbu's uniform, put on the raccoon mask, and waited quietly for the dark.None of the other members of the caravan came back as Jiang Yuanyuan thought, and it was impossible for them to come back so early.

Taking out the daimyo castle map made by Anbu, Jiang Yuan easily found the home of the shogunate minister hundreds of meters away from the daimyo palace, and briefly checked the family members and information of the shogunate minister. Leave with Feixue.He is a ninja, Jiang Yuan has never forgotten this matter, and the agreement with the third generation is Jiang Yuan's only thing to protect Jiuzi now.

To maintain the rule of three generations, so that Jiuzi can live a safer life, this is the biggest reason why Jiang Yuan promised three generations.A village full of danger and darkness will threaten Jiuzi. Jiang Yuan said that he must protect Jiuzi, so he must work hard to protect him.
