Chapter 310: Gathering Momentum

Sure enough, it's a good opportunity!

Xiao Gu immediately wondered, "If he does this, he must prevent you from leaking the news - then how did you leave?" ”

"He sprinkled the spice on me and pushed me into a dry well."

Nie Jing smiled bitterly, "It is the residence of one of Emperor Hongwu's concubines, who is said to have been strangled to death, so it is deserted, and no one will notice it even if I sleep for many days." ”

He blinked, and said in a somewhat innocent whisper: "Actually, I haven't said that these Miao people's medicines, the real Xinglin masters have a way to solve them." ”

Xiao Gu looked at his reserved and forbearant self-praise, and couldn't help laughing, "And then? ”

"I shouted for a long time and no one answered, and then a pair of wild mandarin ducks came to eat, and I pretended to be a ghost and asked them to carry me up."

Nie Jing said it simply, but Xiao Gu could hear the twists and turns in it, and couldn't help laughing, "Then you met Seventh Brother?" ”

"To be exact, the two of us collided - I pretended to be a medicine boy and wanted to come in to see your injuries, but he was forced to knock you unconscious with the handle of a knife in the car-he wanted to disguise himself as me to come in and save you!"

Xiao Gu couldn't help but laugh just thinking about that scene, she laughed and trembled, but she pulled the wound and showed pain on her face, Nie Jing hurriedly stepped forward to see the injury, and frowned: "It was the old wound that was cracked open after being violently impacted." ”

"That's the good thing that Red Note does - she likes to desert in missions and use bad tricks to hurt her side of the thorn, like me."

Xiao Gu was also amazed by this half-sister, and she really had nothing to say - she pretended to be the little palace maid of the Zhang family. Obviously, there is Jingyu behind it.

They are preparing to plunge the entire Jinling into a sea of water on the fourth day of the first lunar month next month...... Xiao Gu's eyes flashed, suppressing the excitement in his heart. looked at Nie Jingdao: "Starling, do you believe me?" ”

Nie Jing smiled thoughtlessly, "Compared to the eldest brother, I think you are more reliable." ”

"Because he doesn't say it, but he does the job of killing his mouth, but you say it and let the leaker cut it off on his own, but every time you go out of your way to save people."

Nie Jing looked at her gaze and smiled gently. As if looking at the little sister next door, "Last time, in order to save that peripheral member Boss Huang, you sneaked into the edict regardless of the danger. It's obvious to all. ”

Xiao Gu was moved by what he said, his nose was a little sour, Nie Jing looked at her, and finally concluded: "Our Jinlan Club is a group to help each other." And the behavior of the eldest brother is to bring trouble to us. ”

Xiao Gu nodded. asked the seventh brother Qin Yao again, "What's wrong with him?" ”

"I've never seen anyone so left-hearted."

Nie Jing said angrily: "The wounds are not all healed, and they ran out and jumped, and they were injured again, and they were not all good, and they actually wanted to knock me unconscious and come in again to save you - does this person think that he has nine lives?" ”

Xiao Gu was distressed for a while, he couldn't bear it anymore, and suddenly choked up and cried, but it startled Nie Jing. Immediately panicked.

"I'm fine!"

She sniffed and said a little shyly, "He's doing this for me......"

"yes. I can see that he doesn't even want his life for you. ”

Nie Jing looked at her with a smile with deep meaning in his eyes, Xiao Gu also noticed it, and suddenly his heart was a little confused - she was not a stupid person, even if she was already stupid, this moment of crisis can be regarded as a sight: Seventh brother Qin Yao is really good at digging his heart and lungs into himself!

She coughed lowly, put this troubled thought behind her mind and didn't think about it, and urged Nie Jingdao: "It's been a long time, you go quickly, don't be seen." ”

Watching him pack up the medicine box, she groaned for a while, and finally asked him to bring a message to Qin Yao, "You tell him that Jingyu is going to divert water to pour water into the imperial city." ”

She didn't care about Nie Jing's stunned expression, and hurriedly said, "Let him pay attention to the fourth brother's movements on the other side of the port wharf." ”

"Fourth Brother Chang?!"

Nie Jing didn't understand at all what this matter had to do with the taciturn fourth brother, so he only heard Xiao Gu say in a low voice: "Chang Si knows everything about the underground pipelines in the capital, and thanks to him when he rescued me from prison last time, this matter must have fallen on him." ”

When Yao Tiancong, the commander of the Five Cities Terracotta Division, received the text from the East Factory, he wanted to sneer and throw it into the garbage heap, but he still didn't dare to hold it in his hand after all, and he opened it and looked at it, and his brows gradually stretched - it turned out that it was not a big deal, it was to let them be responsible for cleaning up several streets and cities close to the imperial city, dredging pipes and open ditches and culverts.

"It is estimated that these eunuchs want to get some moths to please the saint, they used to make noise about repairing the embankment, and now they are tossing the streets."

He cursed secretly in his heart, feeling that this matter was not difficult to do, but it was a little cumbersome and required a lot of manpower.

This problem was quickly solved, and half an hour later, a man named Chang Si from the Caoyun Wharf came to see his master, and he was familiar with dredging ditches. ”

"Dongchang did quite well this time!"

Master Yao twisted his beard and said, and the master on the side joked, "Although the husbands are pickled and annoying, Mr. Xue is different from them, he is a serious reading seed, and his style of action is of course to understand etiquette and know how to advance and retreat." (Note: The chief officer of the Five Cities Terracotta Division belongs to the civil official sequence, but most people expect Wen Shengyi to understand that he is in charge of a military general)

"This is also a Confucian student of my generation, how could he go astray to join the East Factory, and his reputation in Shilin will be hindered, but it's a pity."

After Master Yao finished speaking, he waved his hand and asked the master to assign those rough men to work, and then put this matter behind him.

On the wharf, the porter shouted the trumpet, carrying huge stones, the scene was busy and prosperous, Qin Yao pretended to be a businessman at the other end of the wharf to see the goods, from time to time stretched out his sleeve, and compared the price with others, looking like an old expert, but the corner of his eye was constantly watching the movements of the handymen.

Those green bricks were piled up under the embankment on the shore, neatly piled up like a hill, he frowned slightly, and pretended to ask casually, "Brother, what are those stones for?" ”

"I heard that it was purchased by the imperial court at a large number of high prices, so it was piled up on the dock first."

When asked by him about the timber business, he talked about the wharf business, "Recently, it seems that there are really big financiers who have bought this, and the stone yards around the capital have received a large amount of business and are busy mining." ”

"Our Jinling is a stone city, there are the most big stones, this time the court purchased, the price is not low, these bosses are overjoyed, urging the helpers to hurry up." (To be continued......)
