Chapter 315: Seeking an errand

Yi Qingfeng, Jingyang and others followed Nanmen Liang back to the city together, and they learned martial arts with many Zhuang officials in the Nanmen Mansion every day when they were idle, and their strength naturally improved. On this day, Yi Qingfeng and Jingyang were practicing in the open space on the side of the compound in Fuzhong, when suddenly there was a sound of carriages and horses walking from outside the mansion, and then they saw many strong men rushing in, each carrying a load of rice, oil noodles, melons, fruits, vegetables, fish and other food towards the warehouse.

Seeing this scene, Yi Qingfeng stopped practicing and said, "Jingyang, these people have sent a lot of things, could it be that there is something happy to do in the South Gate Mansion?"

Jingyang said with a smile: "What kind of happy event, these things are all products of the farm near the South Gate Mansion, but they are just harvested and sent over." ”

Yi Qingfeng said: "I see, you still know it well, unlike me who doesn't know anything." ”

Jingyang said: "It seems that you are still a little self-aware, we have been coming to Nanmen Mansion for some days, and I live here all day long, and I have known almost half of the hundreds and ten people up and down." It's good that you only care about practicing day and night every day, and you don't say a few words to the people in the house, so this kind of news will naturally not reach you. ”

Yi Qingfeng scratched his head embarrassedly and said: "I've been patronizing the practice these days, but I've neglected these things, so I have to learn from you in the future." ”

While the two were talking, Zhong Jialei walked over from the direction of the warehouse and said, "What are you two talking about?"

Jingyang said: "It's nothing, I don't see a lot of things sent in, so we chatted a few words." ”

Zhong Jialei said: "It's not, there are so many things that I can't count, no wonder this South Gate family is one of the best famous families in Wangxi City, I just inquired, this is just the harvest of a nearby Zhuangzi, it is said that there are several such Zhuangzi in the South Gate Family, think about it is really amazing enough, no wonder the big boss dares to take in so many Zhuang officials in the house." ”

Yi Qingfeng said: "Think about it, we should make some efforts to eat and drink here for nothing, since there are so many Zhuangzi in the big masters, there must be more places to use people, why don't we ask Steward Hong?"

Zhong Jialei said: "Okay, it's not a long-term solution for us to be idle every day, we should find a place to help." Steward Hong is counting the goods in the warehouse, so let's go to him. As he spoke, the three of them walked briskly in the direction of the storeroom.

The three of them came to the outside of the warehouse, only to see Hong Sheng directing a group of subordinates to count, sort out, and carry the goods, and the scene was a busy scene.

Jingyang stepped forward and said, "Steward Hong, are you busy?"

Hong Sheng said: "Aren't you busy, today the Lei Hall Master sent someone to send a lot of goods, so you can't store them all first." ”

Jingyang said: "The three of us are idle, why don't we do it for the manager?"

Hong Sheng hurriedly waved his hand and said: "The three of them are joking, just let the subordinates do this kind of rough work, the three are guests invited by the big boss, how can you make your efforts." ”

Yi Qingfeng said: "It's okay, we are trying to sweat." As he spoke, he rushed to get to work.

Seeing that he couldn't stop it, Hong Sheng couldn't either, so he had to let the three of them go. The three of them then joined the busy team and began to help carry the goods. The morning passed in a blink of an eye, and all the goods were sorted out with the efforts of everyone, and Yi Qingfeng and the three of them were also tired and sweating.

Hong Sheng smiled: "How do the three of you feel, haven't you been tired?"

Jingyang smiled: "How can it, these jobs can't catch up with what we did when we were in Yaowutang." ”

Hong Sheng said: "If you are terrible, the three of you have contributed a lot, why don't you just go with me and the Lei Hall Master for a drink or two?"

Jingyang said: "Then we can't ask for it." As he spoke, he followed Hong Sheng.

Everyone sat around the table, and then ate and drank, and during the banquet, Yi Qingfeng said that he wanted to go to the nearby Zhuangzi to find an errand to do. I never thought that Lei Li Zhuangzi was short of manpower recently, and this time he came to ask for a few helpers from the big boss in addition to handing over the goods, and the requirements of Yi Qingfeng and the three of them can be said to be in the middle of it. Seeing that both sides were willing, Hong Sheng had no reason to be unwilling, and immediately agreed to facilitate the matter in front of Nanmen Liang.

In the afternoon, Tian Dongming and Li Huan, who had gone out to do errands, returned to Fuzhong, and Jingyang and Yi Qingfeng explained to the two of them that they planned to go to the nearby Zhuangzi helpers, and the two had no disagreement, so the matter was settled, and they were just waiting for Hong Sheng to show to the south gate. The next day, Nanmen Liang and Hong Sheng came together to see off Lei Li, Jingyang, Yi Qingfeng and others naturally appeared, and Nanmen Liang said: "I heard that Mr. Hong said that all the young heroes want to go to the village of the Lei Hall Master to help, I don't know if there is such a thing?"

Jingyang said: "Back to the big boss, there is indeed such a thing, and a few of us who eat and drink in the house for nothing should contribute to it." ”

Nanmen Liang said with a smile: "It's rare for you to have this heart, in fact, there are some people in the city who can make use of you, and you don't necessarily have to go to Zhuangzi." ”

Yi Qingfeng said: "We have already decided, and we ask the door master to fulfill it." ”

Nanmen Liang said: "Okay, you can go if you want, it's not a big deal." ”

Yi Qingfeng said happily: "Thank you to the master, if the master has any send, just go to the village and call us." ”

Nanmen Liang said: "Okay, then you can follow the master of the Lei Hall, there are many affairs in the village, and it is where you can wait." ”

Lei Li said: "The door master, Mr. Hong, these young heroes just have to rest assured that they will be handed over, and I will keep them so that they will not be tired." As he spoke, he led Yi Qingfeng, Jingyang and the others towards the outside of the city.

A group of six people rode horses and galloped, and in the blink of an eye, they left the bustling city behind, and replaced it with green mountains and green waters. Lei Li gradually slowed down and said: "A few young heroes, my village is very big, there are thousands of cattle, sheep and livestock alone, as well as hundreds of acres of crops, it can be said that there is endless work all year round, if you are afraid of hardship, it is better not to go." ”

Yi Qingfeng said: "The Lei Hall Master said that it was because we were in a panic in the South Gate Mansion that we wanted to go to the village to find some work, if we were afraid of hardship, we would not follow you." ”

Jingyang echoed: "That is, Master Lei Don't underestimate us, we are different from those gentlemen in the city who only know how to fight cocks and lackeys every day, looking for flowers and asking willows." ”

Lei Li smiled: "I have already seen it, yesterday you were busy carrying goods, it can be seen that you are people who are willing to endure hardships, and I need people like you in my village." Let's go, I'm afraid there are a bunch of things waiting for us to do. He said as he sped up and galloped forward.

Everyone returned to Zhuangzi, and sure enough, as expected, as soon as they got off the horse, a subordinate from Zhuangzi ran forward and said: "Master Lei, you are back, and the little one has something to report." ”

Lei said sharply: "What's the matter, let's talk about it quickly." ”

"Last night, there was a broken fence for cattle and sheep and livestock, and dozens of animals were lost during the night, and the brothers in the village went to look for them early in the morning, and some of the animals that were lost were recovered, and some are still being searched. ”

Lei Li said angrily: "What are you doing, the fence where the cattle are locked is inspected every night, why did there be such a big mistake yesterday, could it be that I am lazy if I am not there for a day." ”

The subordinate looked nervous and said: "Back to the hall master, the small ones also inspected yesterday, and for some reason they didn't find that gap, everything was negligent on the part of the small ones, and I asked the hall master to punish them." ”

Lei Li said: "Forget it, now is not the time to punish, hurry up and see if the lost livestock have been found, if there is one missing, you can have good fruit to eat." ”

The servant said: "Yes, hall master, the little one will do it." As he spoke, he was leaving.

Yi Qingfeng, who was standing on the side, opened his mouth and said, "Wait a minute, bring us with us, it's easier to find a few more people." ”

Lei Li said: "It's okay, then you can go with you, if you want to come, those animals can't run far, they must be hiding in the nearby mountains." ”

Yi Qingfeng said: "Don't worry, hall master, we will definitely find all the lost animals." As he spoke, he followed his subordinates away.
