Chapter 146: Kindness

A few groups of people quietly entered Hele Town in the evening.

It's a small town with a lot of merchants, and a few more faces are really nothing.

After those people entered the town, they did not stay overnight, but secretly checked all the inns in the town.

And secretly inquired about how many caravans entered and left the city during the day? Naturally, there is no answer to this.

There are many merchants coming and going in Hele Town on weekdays, and the New Year is approaching, who cares how many caravans enter and how many caravans come out. This question is to ask the guards who defend the city. He only told you that if you don't have a hundred, you have to have eighty.

The other party couldn't, and all the inns had to be inspected one by one, but to no avail.

So the next morning, when the gates were opened, they went out of the gates one after another, and turned their horses toward the North Pole. In their opinion, since the person they are looking for is not in the city, they must have gone all the way north...... Xie Ke got up and finished dressing, the door was knocked, Cong Rui went to check, and when he turned around for a while, his face could not hide his worry.

"Young grandmother, the He guards reported that there were two or three people looking for people in the city last night.

They quietly searched all the inns in the city, and did not seem to find anyone, so they hurried out of the city and headed north this morning. He Huwei suspected that the man might have been sent by Jingzhong. It is not known whether the intention is to be a grandfather or a young grandmother. He Huwei means that the young grandmother is not in a different place, there is a small town in the west, and it may be safer there. ”

Xie Ke got up and walked to the window.

It's snowing again, and it seems to be especially heavy this year. She came out for days, and the snow barely stopped. It snows every day. It must be bad for the North.

Whether it was the men and horses sent by the emperor or the Qi Mansion......

It doesn't matter what the intention is, it's just that these people will definitely break Qi Lu's thing. There is no doubt about that...... Qi Lu left Beijing a few days earlier than the date set by the emperor, and the emperor must have noticed something unusual, so he naturally sent someone to the palace to inquire.

The news of her departure from Beijing at the same time was sent to the emperor's imperial case along with the news of Qi Lu's departure from Beijing.

Qi Lu and she both secretly made some moves......

The emperor should think that she returned to Jian'an, and he wanted to use her to contain Qi Lu, so he naturally cared about her whereabouts.

Therefore, the emperor should have sent someone to recover the Xie clan who turned Jian'an. Take Gyeonggi Guard's footsteps. In less than five days, they will be able to catch up with Xie and his party...... Then it will be known that she did not return to Jian'an with her people.

So, where she goes, the answer is naturally self-evident.

Even no one would believe that the Qi Committee had taken her with them, but with the elimination method, the only impossible became possible.

The emperor knew it, and it didn't make sense that the old man and lady of the Qi family across the wall didn't know...... Especially Mrs. Qi. Maybe she wanted to take advantage of Qi Lu's absence to set some rules for her. Now she is out of Beijing. Judging from the expression of Mrs. Naqi's deep hatred for her, she should also send someone to look for her, and if she is found, I am afraid that a crime of not abiding by women's morality will be very rare.

At this time, Qi Lu was far away in the north. If her princess mother-in-law wants to take the opportunity to sweep her away, it is okay.

Just for now. but the north.

So Xie Ke shook his head. "Since no one has been found. Why should I bother to change places, here it is. You go and invite the congratulatory chapter to the flower hall, and then send someone to explore Cheng Jinke ......" Cong Rui responded. Hurriedly turned around and went out.

Regarding Xie Ke's decision, He Zhang couldn't tell whether it was good or bad, but since his own father ordered everything to act according to the young grandmother's orders.

He Zhang did not insist on letting Xie Ke change his place of residence.

After all, this place is very private, and it was placed privately by his own grandfather. Instead of rushing away, it is better to brake with static as the young grandmother said.

Half an hour later......

Xie Ke not only met He Zhang and Cheng Jin, but also got good news from Cheng Jin.

“…… Are you saying that Uncle Xiao will be able to get here in three days? Xie Ke asked with joy. Cheng Jin nodded, with a bit of wind and frost on his young face.

Xie Ke was determined that his little uncle was coming.

In Xie Ke's opinion, there is nothing in this world that his uncle Chu Ye can't do. What's more, if it is done this time, the little uncle will definitely make great contributions.

Naturally, it can also make the relationship between Qi Lu and his little uncle more harmonious, although Qi Lu did not say a word about the Chu family, but instinctively, Xie Ke felt that Qi Lu did not like the Chu family. Xie Ke always felt that the death of his two uncles in the previous life should be inseparable from Qi Lu.

So in this life, she is committed to making Qi Lu and Chu Ye a little closer.

If he had received great help from his uncle in the affairs of the northern border, and wanted to come to Qi Lu's temperament, he would not have taken revenge.

Does that mean ...... In a few years, my uncle will not die.

Xie Ke naturally didn't know what He Zhang and Cheng Jin were thinking, He Zhang frowned slightly, feeling that the young grandmother was so happy with the arrival of the fourth master of the Chu family, which really made him a little incomprehensible.

However, the fourth master of Chu is the uncle of the young grandmother.

Seeing that the New Year is approaching, it is always happy for relatives to visit. Cheng Jin knew that Fourth Master Chu treated his own girls differently. That's the kind of care that treats the girl as a treasure. The things that Xie Ke gave him to do this time were particularly important. Although Cheng Jin consciously did it, he was also neat and thoughtful.

But if Fourth Master Chu arrived, if he had anything he couldn't do, he would naturally be able to ask Fourth Master Chu for advice.

Therefore, Cheng Jin was happy when he saw Xie Ke, but the fatigue of traveling day and night for a few days was also swept away. "The things that the young grandmother instructed her subordinates to do, the subordinates have all completed, this is the quantity of grain procurement and the place of placement, and I also ask the young grandmother to take a look." After being happy, Cheng Jin quickly took out the booklet from his arms and respectfully handed it to Xie Ke.

Cong Rui took it and sent it to Xie Ke.

Xie Ke quickly flipped through it, sometimes frowning, sometimes concentrating.

Cheng Jin has always felt that his girl is very beautiful, although he has not had many opportunities to meet her. But Xie Ke has always been a reserved person in Cheng Jin's eyes.

He was also unwilling at the beginning, although he was not as good as his younger brother in his homework, but it was not impossible to get ahead...... Even if you don't enter the official career, it's good to be a businessman.

He has been freed from slavery and is no longer the son of the Xie family.

Why bother to re-enter the Xie clan after falling willingly. Even if Fourth Master Xie is kind to his parents, even if his mother is really not at ease with the young lady of the Xie family.

It's just that when Xie Ke put his net worth in his hands, Cheng Jin suddenly felt that he was entrusted with a heavy responsibility.

There was a feeling of passion in my chest......

Thinking that Xie Ke and a little girl have such courage, wouldn't he dare to take over?

With his ability, in less than five years, he will definitely be able to double Xie Ke's net worth...... Gradually, from the rejection at the beginning to compliance, and then to the willingness to let it go, Cheng Jin feels like a dream.

In the blink of an eye, the girl of the Xie family married far away. And he served as a roommate. also came to the capital with her.

Before leaving, she was ordered to be in danger...... Although Cheng Jin thought that the order was really a little incomprehensible at that time.

But because of anything he did to her, he still obeyed.

Now it seems that he really followed an extraordinary heroine. Cheng Jin was thinking wildly. Xie Ke had already put down the booklet in his hand.

“…… Brother Jin. It's been a hard work. Thanks a lot. She spoke gently. Cheng Jin was flattered and hurriedly bent down to return the salute. "What is this talking about, young grandmother. Cheng Jin is the subordinate of the young grandmother, and naturally everything is done according to the young grandmother's orders.

What the young grandmother commanded. At first, it was relatively smooth, but in the last ten days, food prices have begun to soar.

The subordinates gradually withdrew their hands.

The 10,000 stone of grain originally purchased by his subordinates had been secretly transported to the north on the orders of the young grandmother.

Calculate the time, when the second master arrives in the north, it is the time when the food is about to arrive, and the young grandmother can rest assured that she will not miss the second master's big event. ”

Xie Ke nodded, and He Zhang was dumbfounded as he listened......

What the? My young grandmother actually arranged it in advance. The second master has not yet arrived, and the grain is already on the way to the north...... As long as the second master arrives, there will be food relief immediately.

This? It's just ...... A stroke of genius.

According to the normal way, the second master should first inspect the disaster situation when he goes to the north, and then ask the court for food.

After the imperial court verifies, it will arrange food relief, and this time and again, I am afraid it will be difficult to achieve it without ten days and a half months.

Those who walk outside all the time know that ten days earlier and ten days later, maybe one thing can change dramatically. If the trip to the north is really extremely dangerous, then there is a food disaster relief ten days earlier, and it may really be able to avoid a catastrophe. "How did the young grandmother know that she would be sent to the north for disaster relief? Arrangements have been made in advance? "Listening to Cheng Jin's words, this grain was not purchased in the last ten days and a half months, and the northern border is far away, covering a wide area, and it is quite far away from several large towns that produce grain in Dawei.

It took not a few days to transport 10,000 stone of grain to the north.

I'm afraid I'll have to leave a month or two in advance.

At that time, it was probably not snowing in the north...... In He Zhang's view, Xie Ke's arrangement is not only a stroke of God, but also an unpredictable prophet.

Xie Ke smiled. "I didn't plan to be so kind at first."

He Zhang was puzzled, and Cheng Jin smiled. "In business, the young grandmother went to such great lengths to transport the grain to the north, naturally she wanted to sell it at a good price.

Although the road is farther, a bucket of grain here is only a few dozen copper plates, but in the north, it can be sold for a high price of three taels of silver.

So subtract the expenses on the road, and you can also make a profit. Cheng Jin explained, seeing that Xie Ke had no intention of stopping him, he changed his words and continued. …… If it weren't for the second master being sent to the north for disaster relief, the young grandmother would have planned to degrade these grains to the north for profit.

No matter which courtier is in danger.

Grain will not be able to reach the north for a moment or three...... At that time, our grain will naturally be able to sell at a good price. The implication is that for the sake of Qi Lu, they are afraid that they will have to work for nothing in this trip, which was originally a profitable business.

He Zhang took a deep breath when he heard this.

Then he looked at Xie Ke fixedly...... In the past, he thought that the girl's house was still gentle and gentle in the inner house.

Showing up, those camping things are better than men. admired Xie Ke in his heart, and he sometimes felt that some of the things Xie Ke did should have been done by his own grandfather.

Xie Ke came forward, and it was indeed a bit overstepping.

It's just this time......

[The previous chapter should be the shopkeeper's 'Cheng Jin'...... I wrote it as 'Cheng Zhi', so I'll correct it here. Why, I'm sorry dear~~~V I don't know how to modify it. Tonight will be added as compensation, okay~~~~] (to be continued......)
