Cultivating Immortality Begins with Selling Oneself

Chapter 262 Bandit Den

Only after sending Shen Fuyu into the room did the shopkeeper straighten up and slowly exhale.

Money is hard to make and shit is hard to eat.

After Shen Fuyu confirmed that the shopkeeper had left, he looked at Shen Mengwu and couldn't help laughing.

"Hahaha, Shen Fuyu, how come I didn't know you had this side? If I had known you were such a good actor, we could have played some role-playing games at the academy."

Shen Mengwu's eyes sparkled, and she was obviously planning something bad. Shen Fuyu reached out and poked Shen Mengwu on the forehead.

"Second Miss, don't think about those messy things."

"I did this to attract the bandits."

Shen Mengwu blinked, "Shen Fuyu, can this really attract the bandits?"

Shen Mengwu was skeptical.

"Second Miss, think about it. If you were the leader of a bandit gang, and a foolish young man from another place suddenly showed up, who only knew how to use money to bully people and had no skills at all, would you take the risk of raping the foolish young man?"

"Robbing a stupid young master would save me from having to work for half a year."

Shen Mengwu thought for a moment and answered firmly, "Rob."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mrs. Shen walked in, gave Shen Fuyu and Shen Mengwu some careful instructions, and then returned to the next room.

The inn was not big and the secret guards needed to squeeze in. Madam Shen deliberately hid some of the secret guards and only left more than 20 people. The purpose was to let the bandits relax their vigilance and make them think they could rob them.

After all, if there are too many people, the bandits will definitely choose to give up in order to ensure their safety.

In the next few days, Shen Fuyu and Shen Mengwu only needed to complain in the inn, spend some money from time to time, and then buy some chicken, duck, fish and meat from the people in the surrounding villages.

Within five days, all the surrounding villages knew that two young masters had come to the nearby inn. They had extremely high demands on the quality of life and often found fault with the inn, complaining about it everywhere, but they were very generous. Anyone could recommend any good things to them, and if they won the favor of the two young masters, they would get a reward.

The bandit leader hiding in the corner naturally got the news and sent his men to find out.

"How about it?"

The chief, wearing a thick fur coat, was not strong and was very short, but he had a pair of very shrewd eyes. It was obvious that he was a smart man who became the leader by relying on his brain.

"Boss, I disguised myself as a commoner and sold things to the young master. It was very simple. I just made a few casual remarks and handed over a silver ingot." The younger brother bowed to the leader. "I also searched the inn. They only brought twenty people with them. We have three hundred brothers. I think we can rob them."

"Are you sure? No one who travels around the country is stupid." The eldest boss tapped his fingers unconsciously on the table, pondering the credibility. "Since he is so doted on at home, how could they let their precious son go out alone to deliver goods? Don't they know how much the young master deserves a beating? Aren't they afraid that their precious son will get beaten up outside?"

The small room suddenly fell silent, feeling that the boss's guess was indeed reasonable.

The second in command rolled his eyes and snorted coldly at the first in command.

"Brother, why are you overthinking so much? There are only about twenty of them anyway. We can arrest them with just a snap of our fingers. Besides, we only want the goods and money and we won't harm the young master's life. They don't need to fight us to the death."

The second-in-command really hates the eldest boss's indecisive character. He always feels that the eldest boss is too cunning and thinks the worst of other people. There will always be fools in the world, right?
However, the boss did use his brain to help them avoid many dangers.

Even if the second-in-command doesn't like it, he has to endure it.

"Second brother, how can you say that? If it weren't for my eldest brother's cautious personality, we wouldn't be able to stand here safely!" "Brother, I think sometimes we don't need to be too cautious. Just looking at the actions of these two idiots, we can tell that they don't have much ability. Maybe something went wrong at home that made them go out on a caravan. Sometimes we don't need to overthink things."

"Brother, if you're scared, I'll do it myself. There are only about twenty of us, and I've secretly checked their supplies. If we do this, we can give our brothers a break for half a year!"

Take a break for half a year!

Everyone's eyes suddenly lit up and they swallowed their saliva.

Judging from the generosity of the two young masters, they must have a lot of money hidden on them. If we rob them...

Money moves people's hearts.

Based on Shen Fuyu's extravagant nature, most people were willing to take the risk. However, the boss still had a stern face, obviously disagreeing.

"It's better to be safe than sorry. Don't forget, we just captured someone. He's probably someone serious. What if someone deliberately tries to rescue him and then wipes out the bandit's den?"

The second in command was full of impatience. "Stop talking like a sissy and tell us the truth. That man was captured at the border. Who could have chased him from the border to Qinchuan City?"

The eldest boss frowned and looked at the second in command with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

Ah!
The second child often contradicts him.

In this case, it is better to let the second in command give it a try. If any problems arise, we can take the opportunity to get rid of the second in command. He can then support a trusted confidant who will not oppose us and can also gain more power to avoid being divided by the third and fourth in command.

Thinking of this, the boss's expression softened and he took the initiative to speak softly.

"Second brother, I'm just afraid of making a mistake in judgment and causing my brothers to die in vain. As the head of the family, I naturally have to consider the interests of everyone. But since you want to give it a try, of course I will support you."

"Raise your hands if you are willing to follow the Second in Command to rob the young masters of rich families."

Suddenly, a large group of people raised their hands. All of them were close to the second in command. The first in command took a quick look and silently memorized their faces in his mind.

"Okay, I won't interfere with this matter anymore. You guys can discuss it."

The boss decisively handed over power to the second in command.

There must be something wrong when things are abnormal. Shen Fuyu's behavior is too deliberate. The most important thing in the world is to keep a low profile. The boss doesn't believe that the elders in the family have not warned the rich young master.

Even if Shen Fuyu is really stupid, the boss is not willing to take the risk. His intuition is very accurate, and over the years, his sixth sense has helped him avoid many dangers.

So, the boss would rather give up some of his interests than go against his sixth sense.

"Okay, big brother, just wait for good news!" The second in command snorted coldly.

In my heart, I despise the boss's behavior. To put it nicely, I think he should be cautious, but to put it bluntly, he is a coward.

As a bandit leader who doesn't even have this much courage, he might as well take the opportunity to give up his position.

The second-in-command thought that if this job was successful, he would discuss with his subordinates to get rid of the first-in-command.

The first and second in command looked at each other, each with their own little thoughts.
