"Thank you, thank you!"
Gangwon thanked the groom for the carriage and then jumped into the carriage.There were several large boxes and some dry straw piled up on the carriage, and Jiang Yuan found a handful of clean straw and put it under his buttocks, and then chatted with the coachman without saying a word."
Uncle is old this year?""
Thirty-one.""
Oh, are there any children then?""
Single."
The caravan stopped for a short time, and the impatient coachman, who was asked by Ganghara, jumped out of the carriage and walked forward.Ehara got up and stood on the carriage and looked ahead, it must be almost evening, and he was discussing whether to move forward.After a while, the coachman returned, holding a few pieces of hard bread and a pot of hot water, and handed them to Gangwon with a blank face, and then continued to drive the carriage.Jiang Yuan was not polite, first melted the bread with hot water, and then put it in his mouth, and after a few mouthfuls of bread, he was in his stomach.I don't know if the goods transported are in a hurry or what, the caravan's carriage rests very late except for replenishing water, which makes Jiang Yuan a little strange, it stands to reason that the caravan is very careful in this kind of weather, and there is no risk of braving the wind and snow for money and goods.At night, the convoy stopped outside an abandoned house on the side of the road, the kind of room for people in a hurry to rest, and in it some dry firewood was placed.Jiang Yuan and several other caravans sat by the fire, holding their packages in their arms, like a simple teenager who had no choice but to leave his hometown for the sake of life.The middle-aged man who gave Ehara a hitchhike came over, handed a wine bottle in his hand to the people around him, and then sat down, staring at Ehara with his eyes straight and asking, "What's your name, why do you still come to find work in such weather?"
”Jiang Yuanhan smiled and said, "My name is Day, and there is no way to come out to find a job."
This year, because of the war, food is more expensive than in previous years, and my family is not very rich, you know, a young man like me is very good to eat, and there is no way to support myself, so I have to go out and find a job to support myself. ”The middle-aged man looked at Jiang Yuan, and his gaze stayed on Jiang Yuan's left leg wrapped in a thick strap."
What's wrong with your leg?"
Hearing this, Ehara was about to untie the bandage and said, "This is a bite by a dog in the village, that guy bites when he is hungry and sees someone, because the scar is too ugly, so I don't need it!"
”The middle-aged man picked up a branch and gently poked the burning fire and said, "Day, aren't you looking for a job?"
Are you interested in joining our caravan, although it is very hard, but the remuneration is very high compared to other industries. ”"Really?"
Ehara stood up excitedly, pretending to be at a loss to bow to the middle-aged man and thanking him, and also showed a lot of care to the rest of the caravan, and everyone looked at the flustered Ehara with a smile.The middle-aged man smiled and said, "My name is Shimada Shin, I am the leader of this caravan, and you are welcome to join the Sun Monarch!"
”Gangwon, who blended into the caravan, was very popular with the others, because Gangwon proposed that he keep a vigil tonight, because in times of war, there are many thieves and bandits, and the caravan is also their main target.Since Gangwon proposed the vigil, everyone also saw it as Gangwon's gesture to join the caravan.In the middle of the night, everyone had already fallen asleep by the fire, and Gangwon sat alone on the snowy roof, and it was pitch black in front of him.A torch suddenly appeared in Ehara's field of vision, and Shimada got up from the wooden steps and handed Ehara a kettle, which showed a burst of heat."
Take a break, and I'll take care of the rest."
Shimada's expression looked hideous in the light of the torches, like a red-faced demon from hell.Jiang Yuan took the kettle and took a sip, exchanged a few words with him, hugged his equipment, climbed down, and went into the stinky room to lie down.Ehara didn't care about Shimada very much, he was just an ordinary person, even if he had any doubts about himself, he didn't dare to speak out, and Ehara didn't think that Shimada noticed anything unusual.Maybe he was too tired, but when he met the warm flames, Gangwon felt warm all over his body, and before he knew it, he fell asleep.When Ganghara woke up to the rest of the caravan eating and handling the horses' cargo, Shimada still greeted everyone as he had done yesterday, and then handed them a piece of bread and hot water, and so did Gangwon.After taking care of everything, Gangwon realized that it was not yet completely dawn, and he could only barely see the road clearly.Along the way, Gangwon did his duty, and when the carriage got stuck in a mud puddle, he helped push the cart, poked the snow stains off the wheels with a stick, and led the horses across the icy road.In just one day, Gangwon's competence was praised by the rest of the caravan, and Shimada even secretly gave Gangwon a small piece of beef jerky as a reward at dinner.Jiang Yuan is also embarrassed, he is picking a scoop for money, although you like me, but you should break up or break up, otherwise I still help transport goods to make money to feed the sake sauce?
Amid the slow bells of the caravan, Gangwon finally arrived at the Daimyo Castle, the capital of the Land of Fire, at noon on the third day of encountering the caravan.After Shimada paid 10,000 taels as a caravan entry fee, Ehara followed the caravan to an inn, the goods were put in the backyard with the horses, and Shimada also gave everyone three days off, and then took his trusted subordinates to negotiate the price of the goods with the seller, and gave Ehara 5,000 taels as a bonus before leaving.Jiang Yuan stood in place with five thousand taels of bills and was stunned, big brother, I was wrong, I will follow you in my life.After doing so many tasks from birth to death, the old guy of the third generation did not pay the salary, and he helped to drive the horse for two days, and you paid 5,000 taels."
I'm a ninja, and I'll find three generations to raise my salary when I go back."
Ehara said secretly.Seeing that Gangwon had received the bonus, the rest of the caravan said that they would take Ganghara out to experience the highest state of life, and seeing them with evil smiles on their faces, Gangwon knew it.When they told them that they had a fiancée in their hometown and that they wanted to keep the money, those people also understood Gangwon very well.They have been on caravans for most of their lives, and they have been on a bumpy journey, and a family is also a luxury for them.Since Jiang Yuan's fiancée, they didn't want to make it difficult for others, and one by one they said that they must meet Jiang Yuan's fiancée when they had time, and then they went out with cheers to find the happiness in their hearts.After everyone left, Ewon waited in the inn until sunset, changed into the uniform of the dark department, put on the mask of the tanuki, and then waited quietly for dark.None of the other people in the caravan had returned, as Jiang had thought, and it was impossible for them to come back so early.Taking out the map of the Daimyo Castle made by the dark department, Ehara easily found the house of the shogunate minister, which was located hundreds of meters away from the daimyo's palace, and briefly checked the family members and information of the shogunate, and Ehara left through the thick night and snow.He is a ninja himself, and Ehara has never forgotten this matter, and the agreement with the three generations is the only thing that Ehara can protect the sake now.Maintaining the rule of three generations so that sake can live a safer life is the biggest reason why Gangwon agreed to three generations.A village full of danger and darkness will threaten Sakuko, and Ehara has said that if you want to protect Sakuko, you must work hard to protect it.
