Chapter 74: Calling on villagers to help transport goods

Gu Wenxuan said expressionlessly: "Do you want to be bribed or silenced? It's your choice."

Chen Sijia put the banknote into her clothes and said quickly:

"I just like the feeling of being bribed by you. Of course, bribery is the best option. I will just treat it as a dream and not seeing anything.

I'm going to take a nap right now, you are free to do whatever you want, but after you finish your actions, please wake me up so I can leave."

After saying that, Chen Sijia really shrunk his neck and fell asleep with his eyes closed next to the combustion chamber.

Although it is the coldest time of the year, it is not cold next to the combustion chamber. However, Gu Wenxuan still took out a quilt from the space, covered himself with it, and then walked out of the train cab.

Chen Sijia opened her eyes only after she heard him walk away and could no longer hear his voice.

Looking at the quilt covering her body, Chen Sijia smiled and felt particularly warm in her heart.

Gu Wenxuan is not a heartless person. He is quite nice to me.

His secrets have been seen countless times, so logically he would kill to silence them.

You see, when he killed the three Japanese devils, he was not merciful at all, but he was always tolerant to himself and gave himself so much money.

Alas! It seems that I, a military assassin, will be bribed by him.

Gu Wenxuan opened the doors of each carriage one by one.

Then Mr. Baye's men next to the railway track got into the train quickly and in an orderly manner.

Gu Wenxuan also saw Zhao Zhenhai.

He even called out to Zhao Zhenhai.

"Old Zhao, are you in charge of the command this time?"

When Zhao Zhenhai saw Gu Wenxuan calling him, he hurried over.

"Mr. Gu! I am in charge of this operation. Most of the people we brought here are from our armed work team, and some are from the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces.

This is the army of Lord Ba that you mentioned! "

Gu Wenxuan asked, "How many people did you bring this time? This is 1000 tons of gunpowder. If there are fewer people, I don't know how long it will take to move it. It will be bad before dawn."

Zhao Zhenhai said: "This time we dispatched about 500 people and 30 carriages!"

Gu Wenxuan thought for a moment and said: "500 people are not a small number, but when will your 30 carriages be delivered?

This is 1000 tons, and your carriage can carry at most 1000 kilograms at a time.

你们30辆马车用一次才3万斤,10次才30万斤,要知道1000吨火药,那就是200万斤!

Just think about it, it will take you a long time to transport all the gunpowder in this train, maybe two or three days."

Zhao Zhenhai also felt that what Gu Wenxuan said was right. He did have fewer people and carriages this time, but 30 carriages had been borrowed from a large village. After all, not every family had a carriage.

Zhao Zhenhai was a little embarrassed. Where could he borrow a car in the dark in the middle of the night? Some people were unwilling to lend you a car, and you couldn't force them to lend you a car. After all, the 8th Master had 8 rules and couldn't take anything from the people.

"Old Zhao, don't worry about it. There must be many people who haven't borrowed their carriages yet, right?"

Zhao Zhenhai nodded:

“Mr. Gu, you are from the city and you don’t know that people in the village regard carriages as their lives and will not lend them out easily.

Besides, they also know that we are the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces. After we lend our cars to the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces, if there is a war and their cars are damaged or their horses are killed, they will ask Mr. Ba to compensate them. I'm afraid Mr. Ba doesn't have much money.

So they kept the car selfishly, saying that the horse was sick or the car was broken, and they just refused to lend it to us.

Of course, this is part of it. There are still a large number of people who are willing to lend us their cars, but some people are willing to lend us their cars, but they really don’t have a car at all! ”

Zhao Zhenhai explained why the villagers did not lend cars.

Gu Wenxuan thought for a moment and said, "How about you tell them that you will pay them 10 yuan for renting the room for one night?"

Zhao Zhenhai: "10 dollars a night for rent, that's too expensive, two dollars at most will be enough!"

Gu Wenxuan shook his head:

"It's only 10 bucks a night!

All cars cost 10 dollars a night, but someone must be available to drive the car.

You can ask them to help you carry the gunpowder, so that you can go faster.

We need to unload all the gunpowder from the train before daybreak, otherwise the Japanese will discover that there is something wrong with the train.

We will definitely send someone to support you. If a gunfight breaks out, I think it will affect the operations in your base camp.

Now the Japanese coalition forces' large-scale sweep is approaching you. Based on your geographical location, I am afraid that I will have to fight you face to face during this sweep. I don't know how to fight this battle.

I risked my life to come here at night, and I must return before dawn, otherwise I will be exposed!"

After hearing what Gu Wenxuan said, Zhao Zhenhai was really surprised:

"What? Mr. Gu, you are also in this large-scale sweep by the Japanese coalition forces. Isn't your detective team responsible for the city? How did you get involved with the Army Department?"

"Who knows? The Japanese are just crazy and have unified all the army, police and imperial army. They claim to have 10 troops. I think they are just bragging. There may be or troops. You have to be careful!"

Gu Wenxuan didn't say much and led Zhao Zhenhai to a carriage, which he had secretly filled with silver dollars.

These silver dollars were stolen from the bank in Tianjin. He had not used them yet, but now they came in handy.

He put 100,000 silver dollars here. He knew that rural people might not be happy if you gave them silver notes. The glittering silver dollars would blind people's eyes.

Gu Wenxuan, who was stacked with dozens of suitcases in the self-service train compartment, said to Zhao Zhenhai:

"These are all filled with dollars. There are 2000 dollars in each box. There are more than 50 boxes in total. You should quickly ask someone to take these back. You must protect them well. This is money.

This is the money I gave you to go to the village and hire a taxi and people. Remember to return it to me later!"

Zhao Zhenhai was a little bit unbelieving, so he opened a suitcase and saw that it was indeed filled with white silver dollars, which were neatly packed in rolls of 100 each and placed in the suitcase.

Zhao Zhenghai was overjoyed, and with tears of excitement in his eyes he said to Gu Wenxuan:

"Mr. Gu, you are really a good person. We in the Red Party will all remember your kindness! When the revolution succeeds, we will definitely recommend you to be a great official!"

Gu Wenxuan smiled:

He traveled through time from the next generation.

When the revolution succeeds, he will never let these people see him in this place again.

The years ahead would be extremely difficult for him. If the revolution succeeded, a Japanese henchman like him would most likely be shot.

Even if he hadn't been shot, he probably wouldn't have been able to withstand all the campaigns.

"Let's not say these sensational words, just have someone take these silver dollars away.

I have to hurry back too, so I won't be responsible for the follow-up matters. You must act quickly."

Zhao Zhenhai quickly turned around and called a group of people to come up and carry the boxes down one by one. Of course, he did not tell these ordinary soldiers that these were silver dollars.

Zhao Zhenhai had a carriage carrying the silver dollars go straight to a nearby village.

He asked the village chief to beat the gong to wake everyone up.

Soon, the villagers gathered in the center of the village's leisure square.

Zhao Zhenhai stood on a platform and said loudly to the villagers:

"Now our Anti-Japanese Allied Forces attacked a train of Japanese soldiers.

There are a lot of strategic materials on it and we need a large number of people to transport them. I hope that people in the village who have horse-drawn carriages will actively participate.

We will pay the participants and the carriages. Each participant and carriage will be paid 10 yuan. It's just one night's work, and we will pay you after the work is done!"

Originally, these villagers were very dissatisfied as they were woken up in the middle of the night. But now, after hearing about such a good thing, they immediately became energetic and not sleepy at all.

Originally in the north, many villagers had horses or donkeys because it was very convenient to transport crops.

It turned out that the villagers were willing to help Mr. 8's army transport military supplies for free.

But knowing that the supplies were stolen from the Japanese, they were still a little scared.

After all, no one is willing to work without money. But now I heard that the wages are 10 yuan a night.

They immediately became excited and raised their hands, saying that they had cars at home. Even those who didn't have cars wanted to help out, perhaps they could get a share of the money. At one time, most of the people in the village raised their hands and asked to take part in the transportation of military supplies.

Those who did not raise their hands indeed did not have either a horse or a donkey.

These people can only watch others make money but they can't do anything about it.

After a while, Zhao Zhenhai brought more than 1000 people and nearly horse-drawn carriages, and they set off in a mighty procession like a train.

When he arrived at the train stop, he no longer saw Gu Wenxuan.

Gu Wenxuan had already hurried back. It was almost dawn and he was afraid that others would notice that he was away.
