Chapter 398: Liang County
When they arrived in Liangxian, the convoy stopped, and everyone said goodbye to Su Manman. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info especially the two monkeys are about to cry, Xiao Su Divine Doctor is like his reborn parents, how can the gratitude in his heart be expressed!
Su Manman also said goodbye to everyone, and after getting along for so long, she got along with each other and got along with each other, and there was a lot of reluctance in her heart, but she had to leave because of her mission.
Liangxian County is a small county in the northwest, and its prosperity is not even comparable to that of Qi County. When the population is the largest, just like when Dawangzhuang opens that big market, the most lively places are also gathered in that place.
Finding a room in the only inn in the town, she found a place to stay.
Surabaya County is next to it, but it's not too close, about the Qiao Yuan Inn, she still has to inquire, although her father is reliable, but it is so far away, she just broke into it so aggressively, and she didn't know what was waiting for her!
The people here are wearing coarse cloth clothes, and her clothes that are not good in the capital are also a little eye-catching here, please ask Xiao Er to help buy a new coarse cloth clothes, and after putting them on, it will be lunchtime.
She didn't have anything to look forward to the food here, but she didn't expect a fried mutton to be very good, and every place has a local food, she believed this sentence.
She didn't care about resting, and in the afternoon she carried all her belongings on her back and went out, in such a small county, there were not many people, and there were few stalls on the street, and she sat at a tea stall for a long time without getting any useful information.
After talking to the old man who sold tea for a while, and feeling the situation in the town, she left.
There are still a lot of outsiders here, and when everyone speaks a dialect, only his difference is very eye-catching. Fortunately, there are many merchants, and this is the only way to go, so it is not particularly conspicuous when mixed in.
After an afternoon of turning around and not getting any useful information, she plans to go to Surabaya County tomorrow, if she can meet the best and get useful clues, she can decide the next move.
Surabaya County and Liang County are both called county seats, but the situation is very different, and it is obviously much more lively. There are many tea shops here, there are many artists on the street, there are jugglers everywhere, people who do small business, and there are obviously similar places, why is there such a big contrast?
Su Manman grabbed an older grandmother and asked, and the grandmother glanced at Su Manman: "It's the first time you, Xiaolangjun, have come here, the government has set up a post here, and the conditions are very good, and many businessmen will settle here." ”
There were some words that Su Manman didn't particularly understand, but she understood the meaning. The land boundary here is good, the government has vigorously supported here, and has also done some projects and promotions, so there is a world of difference here compared to Liangxian County.
This is also similar to that of later generations, and places that are prone to political achievements always need strong support.
Su Manman also understands his father's good intentions in putting the stronghold here, it is too easy to attract the attention of others when walking in a place with few people, and there are all kinds of people in a lively place, who will notice you!
There are a total of four large inns in Surabaya Town, and there are several small ones, and Su Manman chose one of them to live in the Minghe Inn, which looks good.
Su Manman originally thought that Qiao Yuan Inn was afraid of being one of the four inns, but it turned out that it was not, just a relatively small inn that was a little close to the edge. Yes, it is also necessary to pay attention to the fact that there are many people and miscellaneous eyes.
The service of the big inn is much better, even if Su Manman is dressed in a short beat, he is not discriminated against, but politely invited into the store.
asked for a bucket of hot water, she took a bath happily, the supply of hot water in Liangxian County is to be burned every other day, Su Manman did not catch up with that wave, today finally took a bath, although hot water is supplied here, but there is only one bucket of hot water every day, if you want hot water again, you have to add money. When she goes out, her wealth is not exposed, and she is not a hypocritical person, so she took a shower with a bucket of water, made up for her disguise, and went down to eat.
At meal time, the hall below was very lively, with all kinds of voices, which was exactly what Su Manman needed at the moment, she found a corner place to sit down and listen to the guests' talk.
With her excellent ears, she automatically filtered out the information that was not useful to her, and focused her attention on the table next door.
"Did you hear that? Someone in our northwest camp has escaped again! ”
"Huh? Really? Didn't you run one the other day? Why did you run away again? It can't be the Northwest Battalion abusing the soldiers, right? Otherwise, why would these two run away? ”
"Who can say for sure? My brother was in there, and he came back to tell me that he was close to home, and sometimes he could go home on vacation. According to him, the food in the barracks is not bad, sometimes it is pulled to practice, and you can add a meal to a wild animal, which is a good treatment! ”
"That's weird, this running away without permission is a capital crime, and the courage is too great, but anyone who can get through it will be over, how can he do such a headless job. Come, go one. ”
"Drink, who knows? I'll just say it, I heard that the last one who escaped was still a petty official, and I finally climbed up, and I don't know why. ”
"Don't say it, don't say it, drink it quickly, I made money today, go find the little peach warm quilt."
"Hey, hey."
The two of them smiled in a way that all men understood.
Su Manman frowned slightly, this deserter is not something ordinary people dare to do, either you don't get caught, or you will be finished if you are caught.
His second brother should no longer be in the barracks, so did he disappear by himself or was he forcibly taken away?
Hiss...... If he wasn't there, what was the reason for his disappearance? Could it be an escape? That guy just now must know a little bit of useful information, so be sure to keep up with him!
Su Manman's heart was pounding, deserter, where did his second brother go? If you are really called a deserter, even if you find it, I'm afraid it's over.
Is it or not? Su Manman held the teacup in her hand tightly, her back was soaked, her premonition was not good, and even her breathing was much shorter.
"Little brother, can you share a table?" A voice interrupted her thoughts as she ran farther and farther, Su Manman looked up and saw that it was a stranger, and then saw that the surroundings were already full, and there was no one sitting in this place.
"You may be seated, you may be seated."
Su Manman behaved very reservedly, as if he didn't often deal with strangers.
