Chapter 19
Compared with Zhu Chuanwen and Cao Zhongde's success, He Zhiyi, that is, He Laosi, has become a bit more difficult to collect food.

When it was dark, the two of them only collected a total of 5 shi of wheat in their carriage.

"Fourth brother, let's go to a further village tomorrow." Shan Shuxin said.

"Blame me today. I should have thought that the big households in this village would have sold their grain to other grain shops." He Laosi was a little annoyed.

"Papa papa!" Several gunshots came from the mountains and forests on both sides.

Immediately afterwards, a group of bearded horses came galloping. The leader wore a mink cap and a beard, and his face was full of joy. They just came from the old golden ditch, where there has been a lot of harvest recently.

Seeing He Laosi's carriage, he couldn't help but think about doing another one.

The horse team approached, and several horses separated from the team, obviously cutting off the escape route of He Laosi and the others.

He Laosi held the dagger in his arms with one hand, and told Shan Shuxin not to act rashly.

Jump out of the carriage and walk to the front of the car.

"who are you?"

"I am me."

"Press your wrist!"

"Shut the fire."

"Which vine? (Whose person?)"

"Earth Dragon Playing Man (Under Zhu Boss)"

"Cooked wheat! (Owner)" Hu Zi commanded his men to put down their guns.

"Where did you come from?"

"Go to hang out with friends (do things for friends)"

Huzi stopped talking nonsense and said, "Boss Zhu who is digging for gold?"

Fourth He said, "Exactly."

Hu Zi raised his whip and said, "I heard you won't be panning for gold this year?"

He Laosi nodded, Huzi turned over and got off the horse, and stabbed the cloth bag containing wheat on the cart with a knife, and the orange-yellow wheat overflowed from it.

"Change to stretch your waist? (Selling food)"

"Bringing the family." Fourth He said simply.

"Okay, since we have met, we have to pay more! We have been friends for a few years after panning for gold. Do you have any objections to taking half of this carload of grain?" Hu Zi squinted at He Laosi, He made a decision. Originally, he wanted to snatch all of them, but since he has dealt with them and is an acquaintance, he can keep half of them.

Shan Shuxin wanted to say something more, but He Lao Si pulled him away.He still said, "It should."

"You're a smart kid." As he spoke, he asked his subordinates to carry two large bags of wheat on their backs.

"Little ones, go back to the village."

Beards come and go quickly.

Leaving He Laosi and the two of them behind, I feel a little heartbroken.

……

Zhu's Mill

There are 6 people during the day and 6 people at night, and they are divided into 3 groups, and they change groups every hour.The water mill is running around the clock.

Zhu Chuanwen also returned to the mill from Xiayang Village to unload grain.

As I was unloading, I heard noises outside the house.

When he went out, he saw his father Zhu Kaishan's gloomy expression.

"Father, what's wrong?"

"He Lao Si met Huzi." Zhu Kaishan said directly.

Sanjiangkou Yuanbao Town is not peaceful, because it is not far from Laojingou, this group of beards has been entrenched all year round, and the leader is Du Baoshan. The government has sent troops to suppress it several times, but they all returned without success.

Who would have thought that He Lao Si would meet Hu Zi when he went out to collect food.

"Brother, I think Du Laosan and the others came from the direction of Laojingou, and they should go to collect gold." He Laosi said bitterly.They have a blood feud with this Du Baoshan.

"Fourth, it's unlucky for us to meet them this time. But in the future, we will have to go to Yuanbao Town as soon as it gets dark. Before they dare to come to the town, they dare to bully the poor gold diggers." Zhu Kaishan ordered Said, "The 2 shi of wheat lost this time is recorded in the account, and it is counted as a loss in the shop."

"Brother, deduct it from my share at the end of the year!" He Lao Si didn't want to take advantage of the big guy, and wanted to make up for the loss directly from his own share.

"Fourth, this is not about taking advantage, but I think you are doing the right thing, you can suppress the enemy! For a few stones of food, you didn't fight hard with them. It's not worth your life. There is progress." Mr. Zhu Kaishan Some praised He Lao Si, He Lao Si was originally a violent temper, how could he obediently hand over the food in the first place.Still from Du Baoshan.

"Brother, our good life has only just begun, and Shuxin and I have to fight it out. If there are several people, no matter what this food can't be thrown away." He Laosi just now is because of the large number of people on the other side and the gun. Handed in food.

"Okay, you stay here and watch, I will replace you tomorrow." Zhu Kaishan ordered.

Saying that, he called Zhu Chuanwen and his daughter-in-law, and drove the carriage towards Fangniugou's hometown.

"Father, why don't I stare too." Zhu Chuanwen asked Zhu Kaishan in a low voice, thinking about staring with He Laosi.

"There is time for you to watch." Zhu Kaishan refused Zhu Chuanwen's request without ink marks.

Fangniugou's hometown.

"Chuanwen, what do you want to do after this?"

"Father, the efficiency of this stone mill is still too low. I thought about how about building a flour mill in Bingcheng after this business is completed? Let's use a foreigner's fire mill."

"Or sold to the Russians?"

"Sell them all!"

"What about the mill at Sanjiangkou?"

"Still continue to operate. Our mill can't consume the wheat around here."

The Sanjiangkou area is a plain, and the two water systems of the Heilongjiang River and the Songhua River make the land here extremely fertile. When the spring wheat is harvested every year, it is not a few thousand shi, but tens of thousands of shi of wheat, soybeans, and sorghum.

And here is the wharf, where merchants transported various grains and commodities to Bingcheng, Changchun, and Mukden by water.

Most of them were transported to the customs by merchants.

So every autumn, Sanjiangkou is the busiest.

"You have also seen that the government and Hu Zi will have to deal with food transportation in the future," Zhu Kaishan said. "The government is easy to handle. As long as we have a guide, it will be easy to solve. The important thing is the beard. These people are unreasonable. There are more than a dozen waves of beards on the boundary of Sanjiangkou to Bingcheng. Today, the fourth He met Du Baoshan can be regarded as a group of old Jingou entrenched."

"Father, what do you mean?"

"Our future food transportation team must be able to protect itself!" Zhu Kaishan said.

When he didn't know his son's ambitions, he thought that he would be a little rich, but now he was afraid that his son's business would grow and he would be targeted by Beard, and if he was robbed twice this time, he would lose some money. But I am most afraid of becoming a meat ticket in the future.

As the old saying goes, there is only a thousand days to be a thief, but there is no way to prevent a thousand days from being a thief.

The best defense is to have enough power to deter these lawless beards and hurt them so that they dare not focus on the Zhu family's business.

Zhu Kaishan has two plans. One is that he gathers his brothers and escorts Zhu Chuanwen from the dark. He believes that with his strength, he can kill a few groups of beards and become famous. With him in charge, he can protect Zhu Chuanwen Business.The second is to set up your own food protection team, from Sanjiangkou to Bingcheng, and the food protection team transports food, and Zhu Chuanwen stays in Bingcheng, where the Russians have a police station, and Zhu Chuanwen is doing business with the Russian army , unless the Russians turn their backs, it is still guaranteed.
