CHAPTER XXVIII

28 Zhou Dao's mood has been greatly affected recently, and he almost doesn't want to go to the mill anymore, but fortunately, Xu Wa'er is maintaining normal operation on the side of the mill.

He felt discouraged, all kinds of negative emotions, and he felt that his efforts were only for the sake of someone else's wedding dress, and he could not tell the man: don't be complacent, you will have to wait for the Mongols to pick the peaches.

Speaking of the Mongols, he remembered the news that came from the north yesterday that the Mongol army had gone south. However, he did not start a war with the Song army, but divided a partial division to confront the Song army, and the rest went southwest to Tubo, which surrendered to Mongolia a few years ago, and most of the southward detours were to attack the Song or conquer Dali.

Anyway, the Mongols are always attacking, and the Song army only has to defend, so it's not a good time! I heard that the pioneer of the Mongol invasion of the south was surnamed Wu, and he was a historical character.

Their commander is still a prince, the brother of the current Mongolian Great Khan, whose surname is Wu and is called Bingli. When did the Mongols start taking Han names?

I'm afraid it's the name that some idlers themselves gave him, and he called it smooth. That day, Li Dazui was in a coma for a day and woke up.

Li Dazui is called Li Bingsan in his thirties, just because he is a big mouth and especially likes to tell some meat jokes, so he got this nickname.

He is not a local, but he is a veteran of rice milling, and he has been wandering around the mills all year round, and it was Xu Waer who was introduced to him and dug him up.

He is a well-known person, bold, and experienced, and he is willing to get involved in everything. On weekdays, I am used to being happy, but now I see only a dull-eyed and depressed Li Dazui.

Zhou Dao let him rest in peace, rest for a few days first, and calculate his salary, and instructed Xu Wa'er to find Lang Zhong to treat his injuries, don't think about saving money.

Li Dazui has nowhere to go, he has no relatives and no reason here, and he only sits and does not go out every day during this time, as if he has been cut off.

A few days later, Bai Shoucheng took people to the mill again, accompanied by Zhou Dao to visit all places carefully, and he expressed his sincere admiration for Zhou Dao's management method in front of everyone.

He said that Zhou Gongzi was different from these rough people who practiced martial arts after all, he had thoughtful ideas and unique practices, and once again encouraged him to do it well, and he could rest assured that the messy things outside would be handed over to Bai Ye, and they complemented each other with one article and one martial arts.

And before leaving, he recommended a steward to Zhou Dao, and he managed the accounts.

"I'm relieved that he's doing things." Bai Ye said to Zhou Dao with a smile. At night, Zhou Dao had difficulty sleeping. He used to sleep very well, and he often fell on his head, but in the past two years he has often lost sleep.

Especially the last two times he was woken up in the middle of the night, both of which were terrifying things for him. At night he became a frightened bird, unusually sensitive to sounds, and cranky in dreams that he couldn't remember inexplicably.

It was easy to fall asleep in the second half of the night, and everything seemed quiet except for the sound of insects. In this darkness, Zhou Dao suddenly opened his eyes, as if there was a shining light, he sat up from the bed suddenly, motionless,

"Wu Bingli, Wu Bingli..." In the darkness, I could only hear the words coming out of his mouth.
