Chapter 579: Transformation

I knew that this group of strongmen were bandits from Laosong Mountain.

The man was visibly more relaxed.

"Little brother, no, the young master has something to say..."

This amazing turn of events was something Yan Yu didn't expect.

He actually got close to her.

She waved her hand impatiently.

"Don't talk nonsense. I want to save you dogs' lives because I have something to ask. You answer obediently. If you don't answer well, I don't mind bleeding you!"

Yan Yu actually felt that he should draw a knife on this man and let him feel how fast the knife was.

But after thinking about it, it was still too perverted, so let’s just leave it like that for the time being.

"That, that, and that..." Yan Yu pointed at the people on the ground casually, "Take them aside first. You can ask these questions I asked you again later." She said to the boy scouts around her. .

Several boys stepped forward and kicked the person up and took him not far away.

The man's heart froze.

He immediately understood the young master’s intention.

This is to prevent him from telling the truth.

Compare it with several people, and you can tell whether it is true or false.

He quickly thought about whether he had ever let anything slip, but his mind was in a blur and he didn't know what these bandits wanted to ask.

"How much coal does the coal mine produce every month?"

"How many miners are there?"

"Where will the coal dug out here be delivered? How often will it be delivered?"

"How did you get on the line with Beirong? Did they find it or did you find it?"

“How many cattle, sheep and people are exchanged for one car of coal?”

"How many times is this transaction?"

…

The questions Yan Yu asked all revolved around the private mine, and it was clear that he had some thoughts about the coal mine.

The man answered more and more smoothly.

There is nothing unspeakable about this.

Even if he doesn't tell them, as long as these bandits are interested and observe for some time, they will know the details.

That’s why I know everything I know.

Yan Yu stopped and asked.

He motioned to the surrounding Boy Scouts.

A few more people ran away, then returned after a while and nodded towards Yan Yu.

This man is telling the truth.

Yan Yu saw Uncle Luo walking this way with a happy face.

I know in my heart that the cattle and sheep have been counted.

Afraid of being exposed, she didn't wait where she was and took a few steps forward to greet him.

"Boy, go and take a look, there are quite a few." Uncle Luo took out a hemp rope from the waistband of his trousers and rubbed the knot on it with his hand.

"There are sixty cows and two hundred and twenty-three sheep. These are alive, and some are frozen to death. Wait, I can touch them..." Luo Da pulled out the other end of the hemp rope again, " We counted the dead ones first, and there were seven out of eighty... By the way, these frozen cattle and sheep were brought by carts, and there were more than a dozen frames, and there were three carts of leather inside. We looked at them, and they were all It’s salty!”

Luo Da was so happy that the corner of his mouth never dropped.

Yan Xiangheng wrapped his hands and ran over.

The mood is completely opposite to that of Luo Da.

He whispered: "Uncle Kang asked, those... are our Guanzhou people, they were all kidnapped several years ago. The Beirong did not regard them as human beings, and used them hard, and many of them couldn't bear it... They are no longer there, There are a lot of people dying on the way here, it’s so cold, and some people just... can’t hold on!”

A ball of anger surged in Yan Yu's heart.

She looked in that direction.

The people tied up with ropes were old and young, male and female. They were all skinny and wrapped in tattered cotton clothes. Some of them didn't even have cotton clothes at all. They were wearing single clothes, and a lump could be seen at the seams. The lump of wool is exposed...

"Uncle Kang asked you, do you want to untie them?" Yan Xiangheng asked.

Yan Yu withdrew his gaze and shook his head slowly.

"Not yet." She calculated the number of cattle and sheep, and said solemnly: "The number of cattle, sheep, and furs brought by Beirong cannot match the number of coal trucks."

She explained the information she had just asked from the Xizhou soldiers.

Yan Xiangheng also reacted immediately.

"According to what those Xizhou soldiers said, this is not the first time they have sold coal to Beirong. The last time they were selling coal from this coal yard, they took away all the inventory in their mines. So the coal on the truck now is theirs. What they have dug in recent times...compared to their last transaction, Beirong brought...a lot more cattle and sheep!"

Yan Yu nodded.

Not even a little bit more.

Calculated based on the proportion of the last transaction, there are only about one-third of the coal trucks in Xizhou. Considering that Xizhou may be ruthless and raise prices again when the weather is cold, at least half of the coal has not been transported.

Yan Yu suddenly turned around and walked quickly towards the person who just asked the question.

She judged that this man was not from the army, and he didn't look like other Xizhou soldiers. Judging from the personnel duties of the British Prince's Palace, he was probably a steward of the Qi Prince's Palace.

Yan Yu walked closer and kicked him.

She exerted a third of her strength on this kick, and heard the man squealing along with the sound of his legs clicking.

It must be broken.

She stepped directly on the broken leg, the ferocity in her eyes almost overflowing.

"Is there something you're hiding? Are you thinking that if you delay, your reinforcements from Xizhou are about to arrive?"

Slowly grinding on the feet.

How could the man bear it? He screamed in pain: "Young Master, please relax your feet, relax. I really didn't mean to hide it from you. You...you didn't ask...the things you asked just now." , the little one answered honestly!”

"There is also a coal fleet coming. We agreed to trade tomorrow. Beirong has arrived early. We are close, so we have arrived early! Ah - we just want to get some more benefits in private. Beirong brought it Leather goods are not like cattle and sheep. There are no numbers. This winter is cold, and the price of leather goods in the city has increased..."

This man was as bald as pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.

Yan Yu didn't want to hear it anymore.

There was only one thought in her mind at this time: there was another fleet of coal trucks coming to her door!

"gather!"

Yan Yu shouted loudly.

Everyone immediately gathered here.

The queue forms.

The man was dumbfounded, this...is a bandit?

"These..." Yan Yu pointed to the Xizhou soldiers on the ground: "Tie them all up, blindfold them and gag them..." She glanced around and her eyes fell on Luo Da.

"Uncle Luo, take a few people to the slope where we rested when we came here and hide them. If anyone is dishonest, we will send him on his way!"

Luo Da nodded calmly, immediately found a few helpers, and tied them up one by one with hemp rope, especially their hands, which were tied several times. They were tied so hard that it was difficult for anyone to untie them...

I originally wanted to tear strips of cloth from these Xizhou soldiers, but when I saw that these people were well dressed, Yi Shui's newly made cotton clothes made them hot-eyed and reluctant to tear them up. Luo Da didn't even think about it. He directly started to tear strips of cloth from his inner clothes.

Others followed suit.

Yan Yu turned away, her tight face almost unable to hold on.

"Beirong's body has to be transported away, and the blood stains on the ground are buried deeper. Not only can't you see the blood in this place before tomorrow morning, but you can't even smell it."

Yan Yu quickly ordered: "Brother Ertie, find a few smart people to go far with you to explore, mainly in these two directions."

She determined the location in her mind and pointed in the direction.

One is where the private mine is located, and the other is where Xizhou Fucheng is located.

"Let Uncle Luo take away all our sledges, dogs, and livestock. Don't leave anything behind." Yan Yu slapped her forehead and remembered the most important thing: "Before transporting Beirong away, all the clothes we gave them were taken off." Come down, let’s change into…”
