Shu Yanhua had a thousand words, but in the end she only wrote a few sentences. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The undercurrent in Beijing was turbulent, and he didn't tell in the letter, and he didn't want him to worry about the situation in Beijing in the border city.

What she can do is to reduce the guilt in Zhou Tingyu's heart as much as possible, hoping that he can cheer up as soon as possible, and remember that there is a wife and daughter in Beijing waiting for him to come back.

Zhou Tingyu stretched out his big palm and gently pasted it on the small palm print, covering it full.

His eyes were slightly moist, and he tried his best to suppress his thoughts about his wife and daughter, and put the letter close to him before looking at Bo Mu.

"The princess, please come and help me......"

Zhou Tingyu groaned, he knew Bo Mu's ability, and he was very welcome and happy about his arrival.

For the use of poison, he does not have the idea of winning without force, this is a war between countries, since the Turks have lost their benevolence, so why should he follow the rules?

It doesn't matter if it's a black cat or a white cat, a cat that catches a mouse is a good cat.

It's just that how to make Bomu's ability to the extreme, this has to be discussed, at least to poison the Turkic dog, the difficulty is not ordinary.

Just when Zhou Tingyu wanted to communicate with Bo Mu, a person hurriedly walked in outside.

"Your Highness, a caravan has come from the border city."

Leader Xu came in and said in a low voice, which made Zhou Tingyu and Bo Mu stunned for a moment, and then laughed again.

"I know, this is a caravan sent by Hua'er from Beijing, and it is here to deliver something to me......"

Before Zhou Tingyu's words could be finished, he was interrupted by the ringleader.

"I know that Hua Niang sent a caravan from Beijing, and I knew it as soon as I entered the border city, can I still know that this caravan entered the door of the Yan family's shop?"

The leader's expression was serious, and his voice was deep, "The caravan I am talking about is another caravan, a group of nearly fifty people, thirty-six carriages, my men have seen the marks of those wheels outside the city, they are very deep, and I can conclude that the things carried on the carriage are very heavy. ”

Zhou Tingyu's face gradually became serious, and even Bo Mu felt that there was something strange in this.

"This caravan entered the border city, which caused a lot of people to look at it, and I went to investigate, and this caravan said to the outside world that they did not come to the border city.

It's just that the young master of the family is about to get married, and he wants a little good skin to hire, and it just so happens that they are in Lincheng again, and it is not far from this side of the detour, and there is a set of other courtyards for their family in the border city, so they simply come here to see if they can buy a good skin to go back. ”

"Don't they know that there is a war going on in the border city?"

A dark light flashed in Zhou Tingyu's eyes, now that the people of the border city can evacuate have been evacuated, come to a depressed border city to buy skins?

In the midst of a war?

"Do you know which caravan this is?" Zhou Tingyu asked.

"It is said that the Zhao family is from Fengcheng."

The Zhao family in Fengcheng, this name, Zhou Tingyu didn't know, he first looked at the shopkeeper Yan, the Yan family, as one of the ten big families, has shops all over Daxia, so he should know something about it.

"The Zhao family in Fengcheng, I know, this is a well-known wealthy merchant in Fengcheng, mainly dealing in jade.

The Zhao family has several jade mines, and the jade produced by the Zhao family has medium and low grades, jade for a few taels of silver, and jade for hundreds of taels, which is as precious as mutton fat white jade. ”

Shopkeeper Yan immediately told his own situation about the Zhao family, "The Zhao family has been seeking one more livelihood over the years, and it is estimated that the mines of his family will be finished in more than ten years."

The Zhao family is the son of their family, and hired the eldest lady of the Shen family, a big cloth merchant, if you want to hire the eldest lady of the Shen family, if it is average, it is indeed impossible to take it, and it will make the Shen family feel that the Zhao family's sincerity is insufficient. ”

"The Shen family? Is it the Shen family who is bent on squeezing down the Yan family and sitting on the top ten cloth merchants? ”

I don't know about the Zhao family, but for the Shen family, who has always been eyeing the position of the leader of the Yan family's cloth merchants, Zhou Tingyu heard it when he was chatting with Shu Yanhua.

"Yes, it's the Shen family." The shopkeeper Yan affirmed.

"So, no problem? Because he was afraid that the Shen family would not be satisfied, he made a detour to the border city to buy skins, as for those chariots, the marks were very deep, maybe their carriages were loaded with ore? ”

Zhou Tingyu was talking to himself while pacing and thinking.

"Your Yan family, when the young master of the family was hired, those skins were also found in this way?"

Zhou Tingyu paused, turned around and asked the shopkeeper Yan.

I don't want to Yan The shopkeeper shook his head, "Of course not, every year we buy skins, we will divide them into several grades, and generally the old lady and the old lady keep the best skins for a few young masters, grandfathers and princesses."

After all, good skins are hard to find, and in the dowry brought by the princess to the past, the boxes of skins that the old lady married were the year when the princess was born and found her.

At this time, it is difficult to find a good enough skin, and most people prepare it early in the morning. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Tingyu glanced at the leader, this Zhao family is weird!

Zhou Tingyu doesn't know anything about business, but just like the shopkeeper Yan said, good skins are not available every day, and the Zhao family is such a big businessman, does the family really not have any good skins at the bottom of the box?

Not necessarily.

Moreover, what good skin can a border city that is at war have to find?

The reason why the Zhao family came to the border city is really far-fetched.

The two glanced at each other, and the leader immediately said, "I asked my subordinates to pay close attention to the situation of the Zhao family." ”

"Keep me informed when there is a situation." Zhou Tingyu admonished.

The leader came in a hurry, only met Bomu, said hello to Bomu, and left in a hurry.

Zhou Tingyu talked with Bo Mu for a while, and agreed that as long as there was a suitable time, Bo Mu would help Zhou Tingyu, and then Zhou Tingyu left.

When answering the barracks, Zhou Tingyu unexpectedly met Chen Yuanjian who was "out on patrol", and the two said hello, Zhou Tingyu answered Chen Yuanjian's curious question without being salty, and then left with "the best wound medicine and clothes sent by the princess" as evidence to answer the question.

Seeing Chu Tianyi smirking to himself holding the big bag of clothes and the letter, Zhou Tingyu silently retreated and returned to his tent.

At nightfall, Zhou Tingyu's camp tent was already dark and sloppy.

Suddenly, Zhou Tingyu, who was lying on the kang bunk, opened his eyes, his eyes flashed with crystal clarity, and he sat up suddenly, listening to Qingfan's whispered echo in his ears.

"Your Highness, Leader Xu has sent a message over there, there is an emergency, and he said that something is wrong, so let you go to the Yan family's shop to see him now."

Zhou Tingyu immediately got up in a dark voice and commanded in a low voice: "Put on a night outfit, let's go out while it's dark." Qingyun, you stay here and cover me at any time. ”

"Let's go!"
