The next morning.
At dawn, everyone woke up.
All of them washed up by the river.
She even took out her clean clothes and dressed herself up like a young lady who was going out shopping.
It was no wonder that everyone treated him so seriously.
After all, he could only go down the mountain a few times a year.
They all wanted to act like normal people, not like savages that others would look down on.
Zhao Feng was the same.
He changed into clean clothes and shaved his beard.
Even though he looked harmless, the young man was still very delicate.
A long sword hung at his waist, making him look like a graceful young master.
No one would have thought that this was the Yellow Turban Army's minor canal commander who had once been on the battlefield and killed people.
……
The others also had their own equipment.
Each person was given a low-quality longbow. It was mainly used for hunting and was also used for robbing.
A few of them even had a few chipped podaos in their hands.
This was all the equipment these people had.
They went down the mountain and arrived at a main road.
On the small hill beside the road, they hid against the bushes and searched for suitable prey.
Zhao Feng and company were forced to become bandits.
However, they had their own rules.
Firstly, they would not rob the commoners.
Secondly, even if it was a robbery, try not to kill.
Zhao Feng and the others had come down the mountain a few times, so they knew the people on this road quite well.
Other than a few ordinary people, most of them were merchants.
A merchant who traveled between the east of the river and the southern Xiongnu territory.
……
In the feudal dynasty, people were also divided into three, six, and nine grades.
Scholars, farmers, merchants and businessmen.
The merchant was ranked last and had the lowest status. Naturally, he had his reasons.
What did the merchants at the end of the Han Dynasty rely on to make money?
They relied on the lack of information from all over the world, buying and selling, and earning personal benefits from it.
Another point was smuggling.
Salt, iron, these were things that were prohibited from private trade, but merchants could make large profits from them.
And Hedong County was the county with the most smuggling.
Because the east of the river was backed by the Southern Xiongnu.
The Southern Xiongnu occupied that desolate place. There were no salt pans or iron mines.
If he bought it from the official website, he would be ripped off too ruthlessly.
Therefore, this gave the merchants an opportunity to travel between the two places.
They exchanged grain, iron, and salt for horses, cattle, and sheep, and then sold them to the Han people.
The profits would be several times, or even dozens of times, if they went back and forth.
Zhao Feng's group was specifically targeting these caravans.
Because these caravans knew that they were smuggling and breaking the law, even if they were robbed, they did not dare to report it to the authorities.
……
Zhao Feng and company waited for half a day.
"Chief, why are there only ordinary people here today? There isn't even a caravan.”
"What's the hurry? Wait a little longer."
Just as Zhao Feng thought that he would not gain anything today, the sound of hooves sounded in the distance.
He looked up.
At the front was a middle-aged man riding a horse with a saber hanging from his waist.
Behind them was a carriage.
There were a few maidservants walking beside the carriage.
Behind them, there were seven or eight ox-carts pulling handcarts.
There were about twenty guards on both sides of the ox cart.
All of them had sabers on their belts, and their faces were filled with vigilance.
"Canal Marshal, it's time for work. Look at the goods on the ox cart, they're packed so tightly.”
Zhao Feng carefully observed for a while.
It gave him the feeling that this was not a caravan.
This was because no caravan would bring a maidservant along with them.
"Canal Marshal, don't worry about it, our brothers are still hungry.”
"Yes, canal marshal, even if it's not a caravan, it must be a big family. Who else can we rob if not them?”
? Zhao Feng wasn't in a hurry to attack. Instead, he used the Eye of the God to check.
Other than the middle-aged man who was at least 70 points in strength, the others were nothing to worry about.
? This made Zhao Feng relax.
"Old Xu, do it."
?" Kill!"? Zhao Feng ordered.
Xu Huang picked up a stone the size of a millstone.
After taking aim.
With a whoosh, it was thrown out.
Xu Huang's accuracy was quite good.
It hit the middle-aged man who was riding the horse, and both the man and the horse fell to the ground.
As the middle-aged leader fell, the rest of the guards instantly panicked.
He pulled out his saber and looked at the mountainside in horror.
? Zhao Feng and company calmly came down the hill.
More than ten people were holding bows and arrows, and they had already drawn their bowstrings, aiming at the group of guards.
Zhao Feng walked forward with a smile.
"Everyone, don't be nervous. I only seek wealth, not murder.”
"Put down your weapons, cover your head and squat on the ground.”
"If anyone is not honest, be careful. Don't be shot like a porcupine.”
Zhao Feng's group of twenty had been on the battlefield and had seen blood.
Just by standing there, he had an imposing manner.
An aura that made ordinary guards tremble in fear.
The twenty guards did not even have the intention to resist and quickly put down their weapons.
At this moment, the middle-aged man in the lead actually stood up shakily.
He shook his dazed head.
He glared at Zhao Feng and company.
"Who are you? How dare you."
Zhao Feng smiled and said," Wow, you're quite tough.”
"Are you blind? Can't you tell what we do? Do you understand mountain bandits?"
"Hmph, they're just a bunch of petty thieves, yet they dare to stop my Wei family? Be sensible and get lost."
"Otherwise, none of you can leave. All of you will die here.”
? Zhao Feng instantly took back his smile and became serious.
He came to the side of the middle-aged man and asked,"Wei Clan? Which Wei family?"
"Which Wei Clan is there in Hedong?"
"After Great General Wei Qing, I am Wei Xi. If you know what's good for you, get lost. You dare to provoke our Wei family, I think you are…"
Before the middle-aged man could finish his sentence, there was a loud bang.
Zhao Feng slapped Wei Xi's face.
The force was so great that Wei Xi staggered and almost fell to the ground.
Wei Xi panicked as he covered his face with one hand and pointed at Zhao Feng with the other.
"You, you, you dare to hit a member of the Wei family? I think you are…"
Another slap.
Zhao Feng stared at Wei Xi with a cold expression.
"The Wei family?" Beat up your Wei family."
"I'm not just going to beat up the Wei family, I'm going to kill all of them.”
