Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty Seven: Opportunity

Through the window, watching bags of grain loaded from his own shop and then transported away, Tian Damao sighed and every time he walked, he felt like he had a knife in his heart.

These grains were transported to Xu Jie's army in Gong County. The Xu family made a big deal, and the other expenses were naturally unavoidable. The battle in Gong County became a stalemate, and the daily consumption of food and grass was rushing. If this lasted for a period of time, I was afraid that my own grain warehouse would be emptied.

But for the return after the war, I can only grit my teeth and force myself. The greater the investment, the more the return in the future? I still expect that when His Majesty the Emperor wins, I can make a big investment that has been smashed into Changyang County!

Trucks after trucks of food were transported away, Tian Damao's heart was as if he was stolen. He stood up and closed the window with a slam, and simply disappeared.

"Master, there is a person outside who claims to be your relative, Master, and you want to see you!" The servant pushed open the door and walked in quietly.

"Relative?" Tian Damao was feeling annoyed, "It was the broken relative who came to beat me again. Qiu Feng was going to go bankrupt if I didn't see me? I didn't see you, and I just said I was busy and I was about to die of busyness."

Tian Damao roared angrily as he knocked on the table.

The servant stretched out his hand, "Master, your relative said that if you don't see him, just look at this. After seeing this, you will definitely meet him."

Tian Damao looked at a jade mantis held by the servant, and immediately snatched it, grabbed it, turned it over, and saw a very small word of field engraved on the belly of the jade mantis.

His eyes immediately straightened.

"Hurry, let him come in." Tian Damao stuffed the jade mantis into his arms and said.

The master changed so much, and the servant became strange. Although a jastic mantis was extremely exquisite, it was not a particularly precious thing. When he turned around and went out, he saw the master's attitude and was very polite to the ordinary-dressed guy outside.

Tian Zhen walked in with a relaxed step and looked at Tian Damao with a smile, "Brother Tian, ​​I am really worried that you will turn me out!"

Tian Damao glared at him, rushed over, slammed the door, turned around, lowered his voice and said sternly: "Tian Zhen, you don't want to die. Now you dare to run to Zhengyang County."

"Is Zhengyang County a tiger's den? Is there anything I dare not come?" Tian Zhen sat down with a smile, reached out to pour a cup of tea, drank it slowly, and looked at Tian Damao.

Tian Damao snorted and sat opposite Tian Zhen: "Tian Zhen, now Zhengyang County, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a dragon and a tiger's den. You are the top figure on the imperial court's list of arrests."

"The arrest list is out!" Tian Zhen laughed.

Tian Damao covered Tian Zhen's mouth, "Zodiac, please whisper, you are here to find me, I can still cover you up. If you let others feel it, you must send you to the county government."

"Brother Tian is loyal enough, I'm not wrong." Tian Zhen gave him a thumbs up.

"It's not a good person, but I just remembered that Brother Tian had taken out real money and silver to help me, Tian through the difficulties." Tian Damao hummed. "Although the interest rate was a little higher, in that situation, if you were willing to pay for it, Tian was very grateful."

Tian Zhen smiled and said, "I have always dared to take risks in business. The risks are high and the returns are high. Where did you earn interest from you that time, it was enough for my whole family to work for half a year, and I am very satisfied."

Tian Damao also laughed, "But it's okay, Tian Zhen, it seems that you know that the Taiping Army is unreliable. Now I come to see me, I can still transfer you from it. It's amazing to pay some money, but you have to be prepared to make a lot of blood. Xu Jie invested a lot this time and will definitely find it back from you."

Tian Zhen laughed strangely, turned the teacup in his hand, and looked at Tian Damao with interest: "Brother Tian, ​​Xu Jie not only couldn't make up his capital, but this time he had to lose all his money. He lost his wife and his troops. Xu's family probably was erased from Zhengyang County."

"What does it mean?" Tian Damao looked at Tian Zhen alertly: "Tian Zhen, what trick do you want to play? I know what you are doing. I want to open the gap from me and let us get messy in the nest first. You are so desperate to die? Don't think about it. You come from outside and see the food transported from me. Those trucks are all my hard-earned money. I have to make a big payment and I have to get it back. Besides, the Taiping Army is a bandit after all, how can it be reliable?"

Tian Zhen smiled and said, "Brother Tian, ​​I came to you this time, and it was not because of your years of friendship, but because of your and my relationship, I have been making you lose all your money. If you really want to continue like this, not only will you not be able to make money back, but you will definitely be part of the Taiping Army prison in the future. At that time, don't blame me for not reminding you, I will risk my life to save you."

"Speak out in alarmist words!" Tian Damao snorted: "This is your specialty in Tian Zhen."

Tian Zhen smiled and said, "Brother Tian, ​​I have nothing to do recently. Why don't you let me be a guest in your big house for a few days? Then there will be new news, and we two will discuss it again. If I do this, I will be very kind and righteous."

Looking at Tian Zhen’s calm and steady smile, Tian Damao’s heart was really a little scared.

"Okay, I'll hide you for a few days in response to the previous friendship between my brothers." Tian Damao nodded.

"Brother Tian, ​​I'll give you a suggestion to let your grain truck walk slowly on the road! Don't be so anxious." Tian Zhen said leisurely.

Tian Damao was stunned, "What do you mean? Before the army and horses moved, the food and grass came first, and the grain period was missed. Do you want me to take it away if I can't eat it?"

Tian Zhen spread his hands: "Brother Tian, ​​what if things are as I said? The food in this car is ironclad. At that time, it will not be a credit, but an enemy. Then you can't wash it even if you jump into Luoshui, right?"

Tian Damao hesitated for a moment, and Tian was calm, making him feel a little confused: "But Xu Jie is not easy to fool."

Tian Zhen snorted: "Let's walk slowly, it's not that you don't want to walk. There are many reasons for walking slowly. The road is too poor, the weather is not good, the staff is not enough, and the livestock is sick. I don't need to teach you this. Anyway, if our Taiping Army is really defeated, no matter how slow you walk, you will still walk into Xu Jie's army. He can't say too much about you, right? Don't he still need your help?"

Tian Damao felt something, "You are right, so you can stay here for a while first, and I'll go out and arrange it. Don't go around, let you recognize you. I really want to kill my relatives for justice."

"Don't worry." Tian Zhen smiled.

Tian Zhen was naturally confident and lived in Tian Damao's mansion with peace of mind. He ate and slept and ate every day. He also refused everyone to the maid arranged by Tian Damao, and he was completely drunk and dreaming of death.

Tian Damao, who had been sending people to peek at Tian Zhen's every move, felt even more distressed when he saw this. Tian Zhen was not a rogue person on the street. He had no worries about his family. He was a whole family and had property that he could never spend in his lifetime. If the situation was really bad, how could he be so at ease?

Tian Zhen'an was ashamed of it, and when he thought about it, he seemed to imply that Tian Damao's fate was in danger.

The uneasy Tian Damao sent someone to chase him out to make them walk slower. Tian Zhen said it was very reasonable. If the Taiping Army wins and then he will be able to get rid of his claws after the autumn.

Of course, Tian Zhen was at ease, because when he entered Zhengyang County, he already knew that the Taiping Army had reached an agreement with Li Zhi. The so-called Tiger Camp was completely wiped out and it was even more false. The army was now advancing towards Zhongping County. What he had to wait for now was that the news of the defeat of the Yue court reached Zhengyang County.

At that time, he, a shameful guy in Zhengyang County, would soon become a guest of honor and be pleased by everyone.

After eating, sleeping, sleeping, playing, eating and drinking when you are tired, then sleeping again. Tian Zhen has not lived such a drunken life in Taiping City. As the second person in the Eagle Nest, he naturally has to live in the base camp of the Eagle Nest. Where, everyone is like a confidential machine, and he is in a high-load and stressful work every day. He wants to be arrogant and extravagant, and he dare not. You know, the inside story is the responsibility, but who can know whether Guo Jiuling, a guy who is as cunning as the sea, has planted people by him? If he takes a wrong step and is caught by him, wouldn't he send himself into a deep pit?

When he arrived at Tian Damao, he finally regained the feeling of a wonderful life in the past.

However, the feeling of being able to control other people's fate seemed to be better. This feeling became stronger after he followed the Taiping Army, because the Taiping Army was becoming more and more powerful and the territory they controlled was becoming more and more, so they naturally also rose with the rise in the water.

Three days later, Tian Zhen held the maid sent by Tian Damao and was making a fuss. A sudden rush to slap the door outside the door, and Tian Damao's nervous and slightly distorted voice rang outside the door.

"Brother Tian, ​​Brother Tian, ​​I'm Damao, haven't been asleep yet?"

Hearing Tian Damao's voice, Tian Zhen laughed silently. It seemed that the news was coming. He slowly got up from the maid, put on his clothes, opened the door, and then saw Tian Damao with a distorted face.

"Brother Tian, ​​news came from Zhongping County that His Majesty the Emperor was surrounded by Taiping Army and Luo Yishui in Nanping Mountain. Zhongping County has fallen into the hands of Taiping Army. Dayue, Dayue is about to be finished!" Tian Damao said in a crying voice.
