"What are you talking about? I thought there was an earthquake. I had an adobe house that collapsed that night!”
"I've asked around. It was done by those heroes from Fierce Tiger Ridge! Hehe! Not only did the Russian arsenal explode, but it was also said that more than 2,000 Russian soldiers died!”
Zhu Kaishan and Shopkeeper Xia were pleasantly surprised.
The Russians were used to running amok in the eastern region.
The Qing Mansion was a coward. A few years ago, there were many officials who dared to resist and led the Qing soldiers and the Russians to fight. Unfortunately, they were all transferred away by the old woman in the 49 City.
From then on, other than some Beard and civil organizations, not many people dared to find trouble with the Russians.
Although the Japanese and the Russians had been fighting fiercely for a few years, the Japanese were still from the Wei Nation and did not have good intentions. The two groups of people fought in the east of the country and caused many people to suffer.
Moreover, no matter who won, it was still the same thing.
It was different now.
Although the men of the Raging Tiger Ridge were bearded, they were still on the same side. Moreover, it seemed that this group of men was very particular when it came to matters of right and wrong.
They had not heard anyone say that they bullied the people, so they were not evil bandits. They had also killed more than 2,000 Russians. It would not be an exaggeration to say that they were heroes.
Hearing such good news on the first day of the new year, everyone felt comfortable.
"Alright! The more such things happen, the better!"
"Sooner or later, we will chase the Russians and the Japanese out of our territory!”
Everyone smelled the fragrance of the wine and chatted about the raid on the armory at Ferocious Tiger Ridge. They were happy and did not feel cold even in the freezing weather. After waiting for a while, the door of the courtyard was opened and a waiter shouted,"The pot is boiling!"
As the courtyard door was opened, the rich fragrance of wine gushed out like a fountain. Everyone rushed to the workshop.
Ye Xu asked Zhu Kaishan to sit down and squeezed into the front of the line with his own strength.
"Shopkeeper, give me two jars."
Ye Xu placed a few silver coins on the counter. The waiter counted them and brought two jars of wine from the back. They were still steaming. Ye Xu protected one with each hand and squeezed out of the crowd again.
Everyone had a limit on the amount of wine they could buy. At most, they could only buy two jars. If there was no limit and a wealthy person could buy it all, wouldn't the others wait in vain?
Once they got on the carriage, Shopkeeper Xia's assistant returned with the wine. The two carriages then left together.
"Then let's make a deal. On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I'll set up a table at Wan Defu's in town.”
Zhu Kaishan agreed and Shopkeeper Xia left happily.
The small horse carriage left Yuan Bao Town and headed straight for the cattle herding ditch. There were many pedestrians on the road. They were all wearing new clothes and were beaming with joy. They were all from the nearby villages who had come out to pay their New Year greetings.
"Father, do you think the Russians will go to the Ferocious Tiger Ridge to suppress the bandits?”
"Of course I have to go, but it won't be good.”
Zhu Kaishan replied, pointing at the mountains not far away,
"800 li of Ferocious Tiger Ridge. The terrain is majestic and the old forest is deep. Only the mountain pass 30 li to the south is easy to climb. However, those Beards are not ordinary people. They must have set up a trap.”
"If we were to enter from other places, hehe, without a familiar person to lead the way, we would never be able to find the way out. Moreover, there are many hunters nearby, and the periphery of the mountain is full of traps.”
"Besides, the mountain is now sealed by heavy snow. How can it be so easy to go up?”
Zhu Kaishan looked at the Ferocious Tiger Ridge in the south. It was covered in white snow and silver, like a white tiger lying on its back and roaring with its head raised. He felt his chest surging and heaved a long sigh of relief. He continued,
"This Ferocious Tiger Ridge is originally a land of tigers and wolves, and now there's a group of bearded men. Relying on the natural barrier, the Russians won't be able to gain any benefits. Heh, this group of good men is good, I would like to get to know this big boss.”
Ye Xu smiled.
Chief?
Isn't he right next to you?
As the two of them spoke, they entered the cattle ditch. From afar, they could hear the sound of opera singing at the other end of the village.
"Old Han's family has invited people to sing a big show again. Their family is well-off and is ranked first in the cattle ravine. Every year during the New Year, they have to invite a troupe to perform a big show. They sing from the first day of the first month to the fifteenth day.”
"I'm not interested. They don't sing as well as Xian 'er.”
Ye Xu pursed his lips and Zhu Kaishan laughed.
"Xian 'er has a good voice and looks handsome. Only you can protect her.”
Zhu Kaishan smiled and drove the carriage into his courtyard.
"I'll hide these two jars of wine and wait for us to come out of Old Jin Valley before drinking.”
"Alright."
Zhu Kaishan smiled as he moved the wine jar away. The people in the room heard the commotion and walked out. It was Xian 'er and Zhu Weishi.
"Where are the three kids?"
"Don't mention it. The family at the entrance of the village set up a stage and invited an opera singer. The three boys took a bite of rice and ran to listen to the opera.”
Ye Xu smiled and said,"
"Then why don't you go? It's the new year, so it's lively and festive.”
"I'll let Xian 'er look after the house by herself. Now that you're back, it's just nice. Xian' er, let's go.”
Xian-er was a little tempted and looked at Ye Xu.
"Go ahead."
Ye Xu nodded. They were all in the cattle ravine, so nothing would happen. Besides, everyone in the cattle ravine knew that Xian 'er was his wife. No one in the village would tease her.
Xian 'er laughed excitedly. Zhu Weishi took Xian' er's hand and went out of the door, running to the village entrance to watch the show.
