It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 288

More than half a month after Cheng Dalei started the military plan, the cottage once again encountered a food shortage crisis.

The five hundred people who suddenly joined became the main food consumers. Of course, Cheng Dalei is no longer a fledgling, and he also has experience in dealing with such things. In the past few days, I have been sending people to buy food all over the place, using the money left by Mo Mingmi. Until now, I can't last anymore.

"How many days is there enough food for now?" Cheng Dalei.

Li Xingzai calculated silently and said, "Three days at most."

Cheng Dalei has always been a talent who understands the economy. He used to rely on Huang Sanyuan, but now Huang Sanyuan and Gao Feihu have gone to the south. The current cottage is supported by Liu Bei, but it's just to catch the ducks on the shelves. As for Xu Shenji... It's better for him to act as a mascot.

But Li Xingzai is a rare talent in this field. After all, he is the sixth prince of the empire. He has received elite education since childhood. Although he has not taken the diploma (the imperial examination), he is obviously the one with the highest level of shanzhai culture. It's just, how could His Royal Highness accompany him in the grass, although he occasionally helps, but as he said, there are more elements of investigation and study.

"I can only last for three days, I have to figure out where to get some food."

The environment of Qinchuan is different from that of Qingniushan. Qingniushan has poor mountains and bad water, and the surrounding villages are poorer than cottages. Relatively speaking, Qinchuan is relatively rich.

Therefore, Cheng Dalei had no intention of farming from the beginning.

For example, Dou Zhu and the other 18 factions, didn't they just make a living by collecting protection fees?

Cheng Dalei's eyes lit up, yes, how could he forget him.

Cheng Dalei, Li Xingzai and Fudler walked into the dungeon.

Yun Zhonglong was still locked in the dungeon, and he even gained weight after attacking these times. I have to say that Cheng Dalei's policy of preferential treatment of prisoners was well implemented.

As soon as he saw Cheng Dalei, Yun Zhonglong came to the spirit: "Boss Cheng, you have come, when will you let me go."

Cheng Dalei sighed and said: "Originally, I have already sent a letter to your people, as long as they bring the money, I plan to let you go. However, your people not only did not send the money, but also cooperated with others. Get up and attack me, hey, what should I do?"

"Those bastards, Boss Cheng, let me go back, and I promise to deliver the money within three days."

"Now that you are locked here, will they still listen to you, will they already treat you as a dead person?"

"Don't worry, Boss Cheng, without me, those bastards can't play at all. As long as I go back, I will still be their boss."

"Okay, I'll trust you once." Cheng Dalei said, "This time you can go back."

Cheng Dalei really let Yun Zhonglong go, and Zhao Zilong led his team to escort him and went straight to Grey Sheep Plain. Before leaving, Yun Zhonglong was very grateful to Cheng Dalei, and his farewell sentiment was beyond words.

"Boss Cheng, we are waiting for you to get up. If you can kill Mo Mingmi, we will follow up with you, Cheng Dalei."

A group of people went, Gao Feibao and Zhang Fei came over and said, "Big boss, you're not funny, why did you send Zilong? We can go too."

After the division, there is also competition between the various teams, so everyone's enthusiasm is also mobilized. Cheng Dalei thought of Zhao Zilong for the first time this time, obviously because he thought everyone was inferior to Zhao Zilong.

This is indeed Cheng Dalei's true thoughts.

Cheng Dalei gathered Zhang Fei, Qin Man, Guan Yu, and Gao Feibao in the Juyi Hall.

"Everyone has been training for a long time. Whether it is useful or not, and how useful it is, we still have to pass the actual combat test. I decided to start a ten-day actual combat competition, and the winner will be determined by the record."

"What kind of actual combat?" Gao Feibao.

"robbery."

As soon as they heard these two words, everyone became energetic. After all, heavy training is indeed a bit boring, and everyone is willing to go outside to exercise their muscles and bones.

"It's long overdue, and there are birds on the island."

"Master, when did it start, is it now?"

Several people jumped up quickly, and they looked like they couldn't hold it down.

"Immediately, immediately." Cheng Dalei said: "This time, you two will act separately. I don't care how you act, but I will decide who to grab."

"Snatch who?"

"Whoever robbed us a few days ago, we will rob whoever."

The four nodded and understood what Cheng Dalei meant. The leaders of the eighteen families have been here for so many years, and how much wealth they have accumulated. If it is said that they are rich, is there anyone richer than them? What's more, the two sides have already played against each other, and the combat effectiveness of the other side is not worth mentioning at all.

After being ordered by Cheng Dalei, the four left and started to act. The four teams of the fish team, the Zhang team, the barbarian team and the leopard team assembled. Everyone is arrogant and proud, and wants to win in this competition.

A commander can often determine the spirit of a team. Guan Yu was arrogant by nature and never knew how to write a lost character, while Zhang Fei and Gao Feibao were the masters who were usually competitive and victorious. In contrast, Qin Man's will to win is not too strong, so his Manzi team is also playing steadily.

It's just that they are all strong-blooded men, and no one wants to be subservient to others, and they all want to compete.

Cheng Dalei let it go this time, and let them toss. Anyway, the fighting power of the leaders of the eighteen clans is not too strong, and there is no major event.

The four teams showed their magical powers, and all went out to rob, Cheng Dalei and others were nesting on the island. At this time, someone from the cottage suddenly came to defect.

Recently, people have come to defect from time to time, and it is impossible for Cheng Dalei to ask everyone. Shanzhai naturally has a set of assessment procedures. It's just that the cottage is relatively empty today, and Cheng Dalei is also idle, so he helps Xu Shenji to assess together.

"Name?" Cheng Dalei asked casually. In front of him stood a man who was eight feet tall. There was nothing unusual about his facial features.

"My surname is Zhang, Zhang Qiang." The man was clumsy, with a silly expression.

Cheng Dalei narrowed his eyes and looked at the man more.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter?" The man seemed to notice that Cheng Dalei's eyes were a little different.

"Oh, nothing, what?"

"In the village is a blacksmith."

"Oh, blacksmith." Cheng Dalei pursed the corners of his mouth, and in his eyes, the man's message was clearly seen.

Name: Mu Changgeng (unknown top general)

Age: 32

Skill: Hoop Knife

Hidden property: none

Why did the military general pretend to be a blacksmith, why did the surname Mu say it was Zhang... Incognito, but it was for that, so Cheng Dalei's smile became somewhat meaningful.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?" Mu Changgeng scratched the back of his head naively.

"Oh, it turned out to be Brother Zhang Qiang Zhang, but I was looking forward to you."

"This, the king knows me?"

"Hey, everyone will be brothers from now on, what else do you not know."
