Quickly wear the salted fish and don’t lie flat

Changxin Escort Bureau meeting room——

Wei Changxin, the head of the escort agency, sat at the head of the table, frowning slightly and remaining silent. There was an unfolded piece of paper in his hand, with two large characters of "deed" faintly written on the paper.

The head escort, Sang Kongming, slowly drank the tea in his hand with his eyes downcast, his eyes full of deep thoughts.

The head shopkeeper Wan Xinghong said with some emotion: "They promised that if the Changxin Escort Bureau is willing to take their escort, the escort fee will be 500 taels, and an additional 50 taels of hard work fee will be given to each of the accompanying escorts, and the head escort will be [-] taels."

Wei Changxin was naturally moved, but...

"Third brother! Their goods are a bit tricky! Yes! The distance from our Shanjiang County to Changxia County is not far, and the escorts they offer are also high, but...it's dangerous!"

Wan Xinghong said helplessly: "Can I not know the danger? But brother! Look how long it has been since we opened our business? There has been no business for three months. There are so many people in this escort agency. But they are all living with their belts tied up! Which of our brothers is not the breadwinner, and which family does not have children waiting to be fed?"

"There's always no business, why don't you let them all drink the northwest wind? After this escort trip, at least each brother can get about 15 taels, which is enough for the whole family to spend a year and a half. Don't believe me. Go ask them if they are willing to take this trip? Compared with the danger and the lack of money, I believe they are more willing to take this dangerous escort trip!"

Wei Changxin was still a little worried and looked at Sang Kongming, the chief escort who had remained silent.

"Kong Ming, don't just drink tea! Tell me what you think?"

Sang Kongming looked up at Wan Xinghong and said, "What else did they promise?"

Wan Xinghong said excitedly: "If we accept this escort, their people will also accompany them. If there is danger on the way, we only need to be responsible for the safety of the goods, and their people will take care of the rest."

Wei Changxin was speechless and said: "In this case, why bother asking us to act as escorts again? Isn't this unnecessary?"

Wan Xinghong said helplessly: "Brother, you all know that this escort trip is dangerous. How can they not know it themselves? Don't they need double insurance? In name, they are escorts, but in fact they are just looking for a few more helpers!" "

The two of them looked at Sang Kongming and said in unison: "Second brother, tell me!"

"Second, tell me!"

Sang Kongming looked at the two of them and said innocently: "I will listen to you!"

Two people: ........

Wei Changxin sighed and said: "Let's do this! Third brother, you call all the brothers over, and we ask them what their opinions are. You also said that they are the pillars of the family, with seniors and juniors at the top. If there is an accident, How do we explain this to their families?”

Wan Xinghong nodded and said, "Okay, I'll notify them right away."

After Wan Xinghong left, Wei Changxin looked at Sang Kongming and said seriously: "Second brother, tell me the truth, is it acceptable or not to accept this escort? If you ask me, I won't do the business of licking blood from the knife edge. !”

After saying this, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes. It was true that the tragic lessons learned from the past were still vivid in his mind. He was... scared!

Good brother, before going out, everyone told you with a playful smile that they would have a celebratory drink when they come back, but how many of them came back alive?The corpses covered with white cloth, the corpses with mutilated limbs and broken arms, the heartbroken family members...

Wei Changxin closed his eyes hard, and the hands in his sleeves trembled slightly.

How could Sang Kongming not know what he was thinking?His left arm is still aching, but the brothers have to live, and the escort agency has to live too!

He sighed helplessly and said: "Our Shanjiang County and Changxia County are adjacent to each other. This is the road we usually take. There are no bandits running rampant on this road. If we take such a trip on weekdays, the escort's power is so high. , I am naturally happy."

"But recently there have been a lot of rumors about Heiyu in the world. Although we don't know whether they are true or not, we do know that Heiyu is now a hot potato. Tianji Hall has already released the news, saying that Heiyu knows the whereabouts of the Sky-breaking Sword. I don’t know how many people in the world are looking for him!”

Wei Changxin said with a solemn expression: "Yes, that's what I'm worried about. Once we take on Heiyu as a human escort, if the news leaks out, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to escape... The methods are endless and it’s hard to guard against them!”

Sang Kongming nodded and said: "So, for a mere 500 taels of silver, we have to take such a big risk, it's not worth it!"

Wei Changxin said excitedly: "What do you mean?"

Sang Kongming looked at Wei Changxin and said seriously: "We need more money!"

Wei Changxin: ....... Did you just talk about co-authoring in vain?

When Wan Xinghong called all the brothers to the yard and excitedly entered the house to look for the two of them, he keenly noticed that the atmosphere between the two was a bit strange and hesitated: "What's wrong with you? I've already called Here you go, brother, you..."

Wei Changxin waved his hand and said: "No hurry, third child! It's better that we discuss it first and then inform the brothers."

Wan Xinghong was puzzled: "Didn't I just say that I would discuss it directly with the brothers?"

Sang Kongming looked at him and said, "Sit down first and listen to what the elder brother has to say. It's not too late for us to discuss it with the brothers!"

Wan Xinghong could only sit down and look at his elder brother Wei Changxin eagerly.

Wei Changxin cleared his throat, looked at Wan Xinghong and said: "Third brother! You also know how dangerous Heiyu is now. Of course, I also know what you mean. I discussed with the second brother that this escort... ....We’ll take it!”

Wan Xinghong immediately stood up happily. Before he could say anything, he heard his elder brother continue: "We can take it, but we have to pay more!"

Wan Xinghong was stunned and said: "More money?"

"Yes! You go and tell them that we can take the escort, but you have to pay extra! Of course, this money is not given to them in vain. We will send thirty brothers to escort the escort to ensure Black Feather's safety."

Wan Xinghong lowered his eyes and thought for a while and said: "What brother said makes sense, but how much should we add?"

Wei Changxin immediately became angry and said firmly: "The escort fee is 1000 taels, and an additional 20 taels will be given to each of the accompanying escorts, and the head escort will be 100 taels!"

Wan Xinghong was stunned. Is his elder brother crazy?How dare a lion open his mouth?

Turning his head sharply to look at Sang Kongming, who had been silent all this time, Wan Xinghong said frantically: "Boy, is this your idea? You... aren't you just messing around? People are... If you are not being taken advantage of, how could you offer us such a high escort fee? Or are you crazy about money?"
