Chapter 1144 Can You Give Me One?
Wu Lazi: "...You, you, you, you said there's gold in here?"
The eyes of several officers and soldiers present lit up. So much gold?
Others were less excited.
Even those who came from Xu's army had been in the escort agency for several months. They had heard that Zhou Guo would give away a million dan of grain at a time, and that in addition to the escort agency, he had many other things under his control.
I don’t know how much money I can earn every year from these things. Who can I show off this little money to?
It’s not like they had never seen any good things when they were in the camp in previous years.
Besides, it would be useless even if they knew about these things. Do they still dare to rob or steal?
I’m afraid I have the courage to take it, but not the life to spend it.
Zhou Guo didn't open it either. When she saw these things for the first time, her eyes lit up, let alone other people?
Don't provoke them.
She gave three of the five boxes to Wu Jiang and two to Wu Lazi. "You have to put on a good show. Whether you can attract the big fish depends on you two."
Wu Jiang’s had two boxes of gold bars and one box of pearls, while Wu Lazi’s had one box of gold bars and one box of pearls.
It feels heavy in my hands.
Wu Lazi asked Zhou Guo, "Can I take a look?"
Zhou Guo nodded, "Look, you, a showman, don't even know what's inside, how can you make those people believe that there are good things in here."
Wu Lazi opened it happily, her eyes suddenly widened, her mouth almost drooling, she said stupidly: "Oh my god, this, this, this, I'm rich, so much gold?"
This golden bar is so dazzling!
She had never seen so much gold before. The people in the mountains were originally poor. In the first few years, they could still rob merchants. Although they could sometimes get some silver, they had never gotten so much gold.
If she had such a box, why would she be a bandit?
Just become a good person!
Seeing her obsessed with money, Zhou Guo smiled and said to Wu Jiang, "How about it? I think my method works. If the big boss is obsessed with money like this, how can those rough guys on the mountain not get confused?"
Wu Jiang opened the not-so-heavy box, and a box of pearls as big as longan appeared in front of him. They were so glittering that even a man like him thought they were beautiful and liked them. What about women?
After scanning them, I saw that they were all about the same size, and I couldn't help asking, "Master, where did you get this? This is not easy to get."
Especially since they are all so big.
Zhou Guo said, "Who says it's not true? I've been to many gold and silver shops for many years. Goods like this can only be seen a few times every few years. Usually, they are sold out before they are put on display. You can't buy them in the market at all."
That's why it is precious. This thing is priceless.
A box like this, in a prosperous era, is no less valuable than this box of gold.
"what!"
Wu Lazi next to her couldn't help but scream out, which scared the people around her.
Zhou Guo looked over and saw her staring at the large pearls with shining eyes. She was reluctant to look away and picked up one to look at it again and again. After a long while, she couldn't help but ask Zhou Guo, "Master, can you give me one?"
She wanted it so badly.
Zhou Guo smiled, and ruthlessly spat out two words in front of her expectant gaze, "No."
Wu Lazi's mouth drooped, "Why, you have so many, what's wrong with giving me one?"
Zhou Guo said: "These things are not mine."
This was something Zhou Dacang had fought for at the risk of his life on the front line. How could she just give it to him?
She said to Wu Lazi, "It's hard to find pearls this big in the world, but there are still a lot of ordinary ones. If you just follow me and work hard, you can buy yourself a set in a year. Don't be so short-sighted and stare at something that doesn't belong to you."
Wu Lazi had no choice but to put it back reluctantly, and nodded vigorously: "I will definitely work hard. I have figured out that I can have a good life if I follow you."
Just look at what Wu Jiang is wearing. She is a servant, but she can't find anything like it in the whole village. It's obviously made of silk, which she can't afford.
Can a servant wear silk?
If she works for a few more years, what can't she wear?
Others didn't even dare to speak. They weren't supposed to even look at such things in the first place, but now it really opened their eyes and broadened their horizons.
No one dares to claim it as their own, not even the idea of it.
Those officers and soldiers dared to give birth, but it was just a thought. Such a powerful figure could kill them with just a wave of his hand, so how could they dare to take any action?
The group discussed the specific actions and immediately went down to prepare.
After lunch the parties started to operate.
First, there were a few passers-by carrying loads on their shoulders.
The bandits who had been guarding the foot of the mountain all year round came out to take a look. Seeing that there was only a little rice, they curled their lips in disgust, but still left the things, including the basket.
Then a few refugees came. Their eyes lit up, but they didn't see the woman among them. They were very disappointed. They stopped the refugees and asked them. When they found out that there were more people behind them, they quickly sent people up the mountain to call for help.
I didn't know which path I came from, but after about half an hour, I heard a large group of people coming down the mountain, howling, "Damn it, where are the people? In all these years, let alone women, I haven't even seen a female mouse in the mountains. I must grab one to be my wife today, hahahaha..."
Zhou Guo squinted his eyes and saw that there were quite a lot of people coming down this time, about three or four hundred people, all with excitement on their faces, and it seemed that they were all here to catch his wife.
She waved her hand downwards, and more than a thousand people disguised as refugees came forward, bringing their families with them, pushing carts, carrying loads on their shoulders, and most of them carrying bags on their backs. They wanted to find so many carts, but there were not so many.
When a group of bandits saw so many refugees, they were shocked at first. There were too many people.
But it doesn’t matter, because they are refugees. Refugees are powerless, how can they be their opponents?
"Brothers, go ahead and grab the wife!"
He didn't even bring a weapon with him, for fear of hurting the wife he had chosen.
The women inside were all those brought down from the mountains by Wu Lazi. Who among them could be female bandits without some real skills?
As soon as people get close to them, they will drive them away.
This further aroused the interest of the bandits, and they rushed forward with a roar, "Damn it, he's still a fierce guy, I like this style!"
The scene suddenly became chaotic. The refugees couldn't bear to see themselves being bullied, so they all stepped forward to help, punching and kicking.
The refugees were also martial artists, and neither side brought any weapons. There were more than a thousand people on this side, and they basically suppressed the bandits and fought them.
Some of them were smart and, seeing that something was wrong, turned around and rushed up the mountain.
I don’t know what they said, but soon, a lot of people came down from the mountain.
At this time, the scene was basically less chaotic, but the battle was not over yet.
The bandits were all beaten black and blue, and they were howling and crying.
