The eyes of the other people lit up, they were moved by this proposal.
The mountains are high and the water is far away, and the amount of paper they transport each time is extremely large.
If there were more tribulations, it would not only cause heavy losses to Majiazhuang, but also increase their income a lot after they finish digesting the paper.
The big-nosed old man frowned and questioned.
"Brothers, do you know that the backer of the Majiazhuang rice paper shop is the current imperial censor!"
"If we rob their paper, will there be a big problem? ? ”
As well-known people in Chang’an City, they also have people in their families who have become officials in the court, so they know that Wang Jian is a rising star in the officialdom.
However, they don’t know too much.
Apart from knowing that Wang Jian made great contributions and was promoted quickly, they don’t know much else.
The fat middle-aged man was spinning his prayer beads and said with a bit of ridicule on his lips.
"Lu Changgeng, have you been living more and more back in the past few decades?"
"You are still a descendant of the Jiangdong Lu family, but you didn't expect to be born into a mud-legged family. The imperial censor is so scared."
"If I were you, I would find a piece of tofu and put it on one end."
The fat middle-aged man was spinning his prayer beads. An old man with a big nose named Lu Changgeng, they are the two largest booksellers in Chang'an City.
Usually the competition between the two of them is the most intense.
Lu Changgeng frowned and said loudly: "Yin Chao, what the hell are you doing! Are you afraid of someone with muddy legs?"
"Just think twice before doing something. If you do it, it will be difficult to recover."
After he finished speaking, he stood up and said with the crutch in his hand.
"Although this young imperial censor comes from a humble background, he is now in a high position. How can he be manipulated at will?"
"My dear friends, drive with caution." "Ship!"
Lu Changgeng is nearly ten years older than the others here, and has seen countless storms and dynasties.
He knew that one wrong step would bring a devastating blow to a family.
The two leading brothers were quarreling over trivial matters, and the others quickly expressed relief.
The middle-aged man with a pockmarked face said: "Mr. Lu is right. Be careful when sailing a thousand-year-old ship. We must treat a Majiazhuang rice paper shop with the support of imperial officials. Be careful."
"What Mr. Yin said is right, they are always from humble beginnings and have too little background. Compared with our aristocratic families, they are just a bunch of ants."
"We have no business now, and it will be even more difficult in the future. If we don't take action, we can only wait to die slowly."
"As the saying goes, wealth can be gained through danger, as long as we do it cleanlySome, absolutely no problem. "
After the middle-aged Mazi finished speaking, the expression on his face was full of gloom.
Few people in this group of aristocratic families are kind or timid.
p>
All the turmoil in the past dynasties was caused by the infighting among members of this group of aristocratic families when the court's interests were unfairly distributed.
"What Ma Lingzi said makes sense! "
Lu Changgeng, Yin Chao and several others all nodded in agreement.
Their family members are naturally proud of ordinary people.
Even if they are The same goes for officials in the imperial court.
As long as it is not a big family and has a long history, they will not look at it.
"Since everyone has the same opinion, we will discuss the specifics now. Take action! "
Several people gathered together and began to discuss in low voices.
...
Puzhou, on the official road 100 miles outside Yongji County. < /p>
This is the main transportation route from Longmen County to Chang'an
Ma Daman and Ma Daha led a group of escorts to transport more than 400 carts of rice paper and rushed there quickly. Chang'an.
"Captain Ma, what does Chang'an City look like? "
A young guard asked Ma Daman while driving the carriage.
The guards nearby pricked up their ears to listen.
Ma Daman was holding a simple sword and riding a tall horse. He said with a smile
"I have never been to Chang'an, but I heard from Captain Wang Tianer that the city of Chang'an is very beautiful. Big, very grand. "
This chapter is not finished, click the next page to continue reading.
"Not only are there many people, but there are also many things for sale, and you can also see many feudal people. "
When Ma Daman was talking, he had countless reveries about Chang'an.
Except for a few of them who had transported paper with Wang Tianer, most of them were This is my first time.
The young guard who just asked the question said with admiration on his face
"Hey, it is said that there are countless people in Pingkangfang in Chang'an City. brothel. "
"And all the girls there are as beautiful as gods, much better than the girls in the brothels in the countryside. ”
“If you have enough time, how about going to Pingkangfang for a day?” "
When he was talking, he couldn't hold back his saliva and almost dripped.
Ma Daman laughed and scolded: "You have a big body, you are getting fatter. "
"Aren't you afraid that when you go back, you will be taken care of by that tigress of yours? "
"Hahahaha..."
The surrounding guards laughed in unison.
They all gave their money to the mother-in-law at home. Keep it, your pockets are cleaner than your face.
Shipping paper is tedious and long distances away.
Occasionally joking and chatting about jokes can help everyone relax.
While they were talking and laughing, something happened suddenly.
"Brothers, take action!"
There was a roar, and soon a large group of masked men holding horizontal knives rushed out from the grass on both sides of the official road.
"Put down your weapons, we only steal money and don't hurt anyone!"
The group of people rushed out and shouted loudly.
Ma Daman's expression changed. He looked around and found that there were so many masked people, covering the mountains and plains.
It is estimated that there are no less than two thousand people.
Except for about thirty of the people transporting paper, the rest were unarmed.
"What should I do, Captain Ma?"
A guard holding a sword turned pale with fear.
"Tell the brothers to give up resistance and let them grab it!"
Ma Daman gritted his teeth and made a difficult decision.
If we fight these thieves head-on, not to mention heavy casualties in the end, this batch of paper will not be saved either.
When he received the arrangement of escorting the paper, Wang Jian specifically wrote in the letter that if he encountered thieves and bandits, he should not fight hard.
Because Xue Rengui, Erdan, Xu Hu, Ma Dayong and others are not here, the combat effectiveness of Majiazhuang's guards plummets.
As Ma Daman's order was conveyed, the escorts all held their heads in their hands and squatted beside the carriage.
Their faces were full of unwillingness.
"Haha, I guess you know each other, and those who understand current affairs are heroes!"
The leader of the big man is holding a mountain-breaking sword, and his attitude is very arrogant.
"A lot of paper! It all belongs to me!"
"Brothers, drive the carriage and transport the paper back!"
The big man in the lead Under the command, a group of boys drove a carriage and drove towards the trail.
The leading man walked up to Ma Daman, grabbed the simple knife from his hand, and raised it for a few clues.
His eyes lit up and he threw the machete in his hand to the ground.
"Hahaha, this sword is good, I like it, and it will be mine from now on!"
He glanced at Ma Daman, who was squatting on the ground and did not dare to say a word, and then raised his big sword Said with a wave.
"Brothers, let's retreat."
The group of people retreated as quickly as they came.
It quickly disappeared at the end of the trail.
