Chapter 125: The Road (7)

The old man looked up and saw that it was a girl with an elegant expression who spoke. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

snorted lightly and said: "If the girl doesn't understand, don't talk nonsense, when will this be dug up, there will be more than a month, it won't be done at all"

Tao Xiushui saw that the old man was a little bit of Qiao, and chuckled: "If the old man is in a hurry, let's go first, we people are afraid that we will have to delay some time."

She spoke softly, so that people couldn't hear the slightest sarcasm, but the content of what she said was not much different from what Chen Sanyuan said.

Chen Sanyuan grinned, "I knew that the girl had an idea"

Xiao An didn't say much, and ordered his subordinates to tell them to all tie up their horses, organize people, and take out tools to excavate.

There are really a lot of people in the caravan in Baicheng, each family left four or five small servants to take care of, and the rest of the people all went to dig the mud and sand on the road, and there were one hundred and eighty people.

But because of the blockage of tools, it looks a little funny.

Everyone travels lightly, so they can bring some bulky tools.

They are all light and easy to handle, not very practical short and easy-to-use light equipment.

Some hold small shovels, some hold long iron plates, some hold triangular silver forks, and a few hold small tiles, the appearance is complex and diverse, it is simply varied, and there are everything.

If you don't have the tools in your hands, you won't be able to do the job.

The guy in front of him took the tools and drummed around countless times before he lifted a piece of mud and sand from the ground and dug it to the side.

The well-dressed old man looked at the crowd's actions and his face was not good.

They had important family matters and were in a hurry to get into Beijing.

But I didn't think that the rain yesterday would have caused this cliff to collapse, if it weren't for the same road, they would have to turn around and go away, and they would have been able to rush to the city tonight to stay.

Now these people are stupid to dig the sand and gravel under the cliff, which is piled up, and one person is high, and he still digs, which has to be dug until the New Year's Horse Month.

It is absolutely impossible for them to go by themselves, and if there are really bandits in that place, they will not be able to do anything at all, and if they want to go with this caravan, they will be able to do everything without worry.

The old man's eyes were anxious and impatient, and he couldn't help but be angry when he stared at everyone.

What can we do if we delay any longer? The old man is still sick! I am anxious to wait for the miracle doctor to come and see the disease!

After a short time, I saw the little guy in front of the black painted carriage in front of me shouting: "Uncle Sun, the young master called you"

"Yes" The old man trotted all the way over, stood respectfully outside the car and said, "Young master, you call me"

I saw a tender white bone with distinct knuckles, slender fingertips, and slender fingers lifted the car curtain, revealing a man with eyebrows like jade, looking at the old man and saying:

"Do those merchants really advocate digging mountains like this?" The voice is not burnt or dry, and it sounds flat and flat.

The old man looked ashamed, "Back to the young master, it seems to be like this"

"If you really can't do it, sell them a personal favor"

After the man finished speaking, he handed out a piece of mutton fat jade pendant from the car, "Give this to their principal, let him be accommodating"

The old man saw Yu Pei and hurriedly waved his hand, "This is not good, young master, this is not good."

"Why can't you be pressed for time, Uncle Sun, these are still outside the body" Although the man's voice was tepid, the momentum between the lines that could not be refused was very strong.

The old man couldn't be convinced, so he had to sigh and take it.

"Let's go! Leave early to get back to Beijing earlier."

The man in the car waved his hand and urged.

"Yes, young master, the old slave will go"

Uncle Sun took a few steps forward with the jade pendant, and suddenly thought of a question.

Who are the principals of these caravans?

At first, he was talking to a man surnamed Xiao Gongzi, and later a large group of people gathered around, but what everyone said did not have a substantive effect.

Until later...... , Uncle Sun patted his head, he forgot that the matter of digging the mountain was not brought up by these Xiao Gongzi, but the girl later.

Uncle Sun was not sure, so he secretly stopped a small servant, took out a silver ingot the size of an egg from the money bag, stuffed it into this person's hand, and said:

"Little brother, who is in charge of your team!"

The little brother was taken aback, how could this person give him silver, although his family is not short of silver, but it is not a pity to give it for nothing.

Secretly grabbed it in his hand and grinned, "Uncle just asked about this!"

"Yes"

"But it's hard to say"

"Why don't you say it, it's good for the little brother to say it directly, I'll talk to your principal about something"

The old man thought that he had given a lot of silver, and ten taels of silver ingots could not buy such a thing.

The little guy looked indebted for a long time before he smiled and said:

"We don't have any principals here"

"No, how is it possible, isn't that Xiao Gongzi?" The old man didn't believe it, and said with doubts.

"Xiao Gongzi! Everyone sometimes listens to him, but he is really not in charge."

Seeing that the old man didn't believe it, the little guy patted his chest and said: "The old man asked everyone this sentence, what did I lie to you about this kind of trivial matter, not to mention, I also accepted this...... Silver"

The old man observed for a long time, knowing that the little guy didn't panic, and nodded his head and said goodbye, "Thank you, little brother."

muttered in his mouth, "Gu Ran has no master, how can he get to this point"

The warm jade pendant in the palm of his hand is a little hot, whether he sends it or not, who to give it to, how to send it, how to say it, the old man has no idea for a while.

Then come to the car and call his young master.

The man showed half of his face again and said, "What's wrong, Uncle Sun?"

"Young master, I'm ...... I don't know who is in charge of their caravan, but I heard that there seems to be no one in charge."

The man in the car looked surprised when he heard this, "There is no person who decided to start digging the sediment"

The old man thought for a moment and said, "It's a girl."

"Girl......"

The old man was afraid that his young master would not believe him, so he looked back and found that the girl was following behind the little man who was digging sand and stones.

Hurriedly pointed with his finger, "Young Master, it's that girl"

Sun Yu turned his head to look at Uncle Sun's hand, and saw a girl wearing a long skirt of Shui Lan, the woman was slender and tall, her face was fair and delicate, not beautiful, and her eyes were clear and shining, and she had an idea at first glance.

"Uncle Sun, then you can talk to that girl! no matter what, you have to try it, and it's not a matter of waiting here."

"Yes, young master" Now Uncle Sun has a bottom in his heart, he wants to give such a valuable thing to the wrong person, but it will be wrong.

He didn't let the guards follow, just one step at a time.

He walked up to the girl and said, "Girl, can we borrow a talk?"

Tao Xiushui was watching the small guys digging the road, to say that there were really a lot of people in their caravan together, not to mention that there were one hundred and eighty people.

Although there are many people, the mud and sand are thick and heavy and not easy to dig, and the main tools are not yet available.

It took so long to dig only a palm-sized boardwalk.

Thinking about it in my heart, I was faintly anxious, and if I wanted to dig it like this, it would be for four days, five days, ten days, and half a month.

If they had traveled so long, they would have been halfway there.

But the comparison of time and life is insignificant, and there is no comparison.

She stood there thinking about it for a long time, but she didn't come up with the slightest idea.
