Chapter 585 Captain Li, Where Is Your Italian Cannon?

The north wind whizzed through the mountains and forests, and there was a depressing humming sound, and the cold air hit people. On the snowy road in the forest, Shen Long and other Jinfus were slowly moving forward in two carriages. These came from all over the Kanto region. The gold diggers are about to enter Laojingou. People often die in Laojingou, so people need to go in to replenish from time to time.

The coachman driving the car sang the tune again:

Gold diggers from all over the world,

We are all from Shandong,

The day before yesterday was still in Bohai Bay,

Passed Shanhaiguan Pass yesterday,

I have a chance to meet my hometown today,

Come, come, catch a fire,

Let's smoke a pipe today,

Slow talk and chatter...

The gold husbands sitting in the car were all anxious. After a hard journey, the group finally arrived at the inn, cheered and rushed into the back room, jumped on the hot kang; The husbands all ate happily; a woman walked into the room, twisted her thick waist and buttocks, smiled and winked at the gold husbands and said, "Man, what are you doing in your spare time? Can you tell?"

"Big brother, what do you mean by distinguishing or not?" Someone who just came from the Guandong asked Shen Long.

"I just want to ask you whether you are whoring or not." Shen Long said with a smile, he only knew this from reading novels. Since ancient times, this topic seems to be a bit cryptic, and he has to find a way to come up with a few words. Can you tell the difference? Just like whether or not to do big health care in later generations, those who understand will naturally understand, and those who don't understand still don't understand.

Resting in the inn for one night, some people went to find women, and some people rested on the kang because they were reluctant to pay. They continued to set off in the morning, passed the meadow, and after a long journey, they finally arrived at Laojingou. Walking into the room of the Laojingou Financial Management Office, the foremen greeted the goldmen to fill out the gold books on the cabinet.

"Come one by one, tell me your name. What's your name? Hometown?" When he arrived at Shen Long's place, he didn't report Zhu Chuanwen's name, but Shen Long's. As for his hometown, he changed it to Old One Armed My hometown is Cao County.

He neither mentioned Yuanbao Town nor mentioned his surname Zhu, just to avoid arousing suspicion and let them know that he and Zhu Kaishan are a family; after finishing the roster, it is getting late to divide the newcomers into various gangs , Those old metalworkers also came back from their busy work, and the foreman led them to meet the leaders of each gang.

There is no such coincidence in the world, Shen Long did not join Zhu Kaishan in the same gang, but followed a leader named Jin Daya, which made him always want to ask if he would fight against him.

Jin Daya was quite easy-going, he didn't bully these new Jinfus, he just told them to work hard, which saved Shen Long a lot of trouble, he didn't intend to be as good-tempered as Zhu Kaishan, whoever came to him would have to mess with him Something must happen.

The wooden houses are scattered in the ravine, and each house is a group of golden men. Every time they go to work, they move together house by house, which is for the convenience of management and supervision.

There are also taverns in the ravine for the metalworkers to entertain. Shen Long knew that Zhu Kaishan often went to the tavern to inquire about news, so after packing up, he greeted Jin Daya and went out.

When I arrived at the tavern, I heard the owner of the tavern, the big black girl, telling people about Zhu Kaishan's deeds, "Oh, it's amazing, it's spread in the gold market that Zhu Laosan doesn't have the strength to push him out of the well." Don’t come out! You must have practiced golden bell jars and iron cloth shirts, I’m convinced!”

Zhu Laosan is Zhu Kaishan's pseudonym. He still carries the sea arrest document on his back, so it's not easy to use his real name to show people.

After being buried in the soil, he managed to get out, and Lao Jingou was stunned at once.

Shen Long asked for a bowl of wine and waited for Zhu Kaishan while bragging with the Jin Fu around him. After waiting for a long while, Zhu Kaishan didn't come. Seeing that it was getting late, Shen Long had to go back to sleep.

Starting to work the next day, Shen Long followed these Jin Fu, and followed what they did, neither doing too much nor doing too little, just being inconspicuous and perfunctory.

While busy, a group of bandit horses came galloping, stirring up dust in the sky. Behind one horse was dragging the corpse of an old man, bloody and bloody. All the gold men stopped their work and approached the stopped horses from different directions. .

The foreman Jin Da Na went up to talk to him, and after talking nonsense for a while, the bandit raised his whip and said, "Well, it's none of your business. Take care, everyone, this is an old gold digger, Shandong Bangzi, not from your people. The old man wants to Taking the alluvial gold from last year's panning out and returning to Shandong is courting death!" After warning the bandits, they left.

Jinda warned everyone again, "Guys, everyone has seen it. Is it easy for us gold diggers? The government is in charge of us, and there are several horses waiting for us around. We must not hide the gold after we pan for gold." If you tuck it up, you have to hand it over to the cabinet and exchange it for wages. The emperor ordered that gold is an expense of the Qing Dynasty, and even taking one out of it is a capital crime. Most of you are from Shandong, and it has been hundreds of years , how many people brought gold home? I advise everyone, don’t take risks, and obey the rules. Guys, all the gold diggers from Shandong are buried here. Since the reign of Emperor Daoguang, a gold field has been opened here until now. , No one can take the alluvial gold out! Those who don’t follow the rules leave behind these bones, think about it carefully, is gold or life more expensive?”

Taking this opportunity, Shen Long saw Zhu Kaishan in the crowd, Zhu Kaishan also saw him, his face was a little anxious, Shen Long quietly pointed in the direction of the tavern.

After work, Shen Long came to the tavern, Zhu Kaishan also came in after a while, drank a few bowls of wine Zhu Kaishan left first, not long after he left, Shen Long also followed, and the two met on the road.

Zhu Kaishan pulled Shen Long into the woods, and asked anxiously, "Chuanwen, why are you here?"

"After I found my mother, Chuanwu, and Chuanjie, I heard that you came to Laojingou, and my mother was a little worried, so I came to see it!" Shen Long explained.

"What are you doing here? You have seen what happened today. There are bandits and Qing soldiers guarding this old golden ditch. It is easy to get in, but difficult to get out!" Zhu Kaishan frowned anxiously. I haven't figured out how to get out, but Chuanwen came in again, what should I do now?

"I'm not afraid. I didn't walk this journey in vain. I met bandits on the road, and they didn't do anything to me. They even gave me a big cart and two good horses. Besides, there are you here " Shen Long said indifferently.

Hey, Captain Li, when did you become so timid? What if there are bandits and Qing soldiers? Hurry up and call the second battalion commander to bombard them with Italian artillery! Seeing Zhu Kaishan's appearance, Shen Long couldn't help thinking about some messy things.
