"You're the one with the problem!" Li Jiaming also said angrily,"Isn't it just a pretty boy toy!" As for you thinking about it all day long!”
"Are you jealous?"
At this moment, Li Xintong, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke up.
This time, Li Jiaming was like a monkey whose tail had been stepped on, and he almost jumped up.
" No, no!" he argued, blushing." What do you mean jealous? Li Xintong, don't spout nonsense!"”
Li Xintong looked at him coldly.
Li Jiaming felt a chill run down his spine.
"You're anxious."
Li Xintong said indifferently.
Li Jiaming was so angry that he stomped his feet.
Just as he was about to argue a little more, suddenly-
The entire team stopped.
"What's wrong?"
Li Jiajia suddenly became nervous.
He gripped his weapon tightly with both hands. It was an iron sword forged by the village blacksmith!
"There's a situation. Be alert!"
Captain Liu shouted from the front.
This time.
Li Jiaming couldn't be bothered to be angry anymore. In an instant, his mind was enveloped by nervousness and panic.
His legs could not help but tremble.
"Are they bandits?"
He looked ahead in panic.
As expected!
In the middle of the road, there was a fallen tree that was blocking the caravan's path.
At this moment, a group of burly bandits suddenly rushed out from the bushes on both sides.
And it wasn't just in front.
Even the back of the group was blocked by the mountain bandits.
"Tsk ~!"
"I opened this mountain. What is this tree again?”
"It's my fault, Your Majesty!"
"Yes, he planted this tree. If you want to…"
"Your Majesty, I was the one who fell, not me.”
"Didn't I say you'd lose? That's right!"
"I'm the one who lost, not me."
"Who is going to lose?"
"I'm the one who lost."
"Then was I wrong? This king clearly said that you were the one who lost!”
"Your Majesty, it's not that I'm doomed, it's-ah!!!”
The impatient Mountain King directly slashed the dog-headed military advisor at the side.
Then, he cursed and spat on the corpse.
"Tnnd, who cares who planted it? In any case, if you want to pass through here, you have to leave behind money to buy the way!”
The big and burly mountain king in wolf fur shouted loudly.
He looked like he was going to take his life if he didn't take out the money.
Over there, in the caravan.
Ye Xiu looked at the bandit leader with amusement.
Especially the conversation between the other party and the corpse on the ground, Ye Xiu couldn't help but feel cold.
"These days, bandits have such low intelligence?”
Ye Xiu thought.
At this moment:
Steward Zhang of the caravan also ordered someone to bring a money bag and send it to the mountain king.
"Great King, pay for the passage!"
A lackey took the money bag and handed it to his king.
The heavy money bag was very heavy.
The mountain king opened it, but he didn't look satisfied.
"Not enough!"
He threw the money bag on the ground.
He shouted loudly,
"Your toll should be at least this amount!”
He took out a hand and gestured with his five fingers.
Seeing this action.
Manager Zhang subconsciously turned to look at Ye Xiu.
As for Ye Xiu, he pretended not to see anything, but in his heart, he was wondering if the bandit leader wanted five thousand or fifty thousand taels.
At this moment:
Manager Zhang, who had a very ugly expression, also said,"Great King, isn't five thousand taels a bit too much?”
"Five thousand taels!" The mountain king laughed out loud." Do you think I'm a beggar? This king wants fifty thousand taels!"
"Without 50,000 taels of silver, you people can forget about leaving today!”
Look at his arrogant and despotic appearance.
It was as if they were going to devour this caravan.
This made Manager Zhang feel a little nervous. For a moment, he couldn't figure out if the other party was stupid. Or did he really have the confidence?
He couldn't help but look at Captain Liu.
"Let me test this guy's capabilities!”
Captain Liu thought for a moment and said.
After all;
Fifty thousand taels was not a small sum.
If they really gave it to him, then their business this time would basically not make much profit.
well
It wasn't a loss, it was just a little less.
This was obvious.
Just how profitable were these caravans?
However, the risks they took were also relatively high.
Otherwise;
If money was really that easy to earn, everyone would have come to the caravan.
But why would some merchants rather earn less than run a caravan? They would only occasionally open a shop in the city or something?
It was all because the risk of doing this was too high.
If he was not careful, not only would he not earn any money, but he might also lose his life!
....................
Captain Liu's words made Manager Zhang feel much more at ease.
So he retreated to the back and left the scene to Captain Liu to handle.
After getting off the horse, Captain Liu took off his weapon. It was a broadsword that weighed more than a hundred pounds!
Holding his weapon, Captain Liu walked to the front of the team.
"This Great King, you asked for fifty thousand taels of silver. You must be someone with true ability.”
"How about this, you fight with me, Liu. If you win, then we'll give you this fifty thousand taels on the spot!”
"But if you lose, then obediently take the toll on the ground and let us pass. How about that?”
After Captain Liu finished speaking, he waited for the Mountain King's reply.
When the big and round Mountain King heard this, he laughed out loud and waved his hand."Lads, this kid wants to fight with this king. Do you think this king will agree?”
"Agree to his request!"
" King, kill him!!"
"Kill him alive!"
The bandits around them started to cheer.
The mountain king pressed his hands down, and his followers instantly quieted down.
"You, this king agrees!"
He picked up his broadsword and pointed it at Captain Liu as if he didn't care about him at all.
