Three days later.

Qinlin Ancient Road, only a stone's throw away from the first line of heaven, another medicine house appeared.

On the opposite side of the medicine house is a two-story wooden building.

The wooden building is far less exquisite and magnificent than the restaurant in the prosperous place in the inland of the Central Plains, and the thick wooden tables and chairs are not even painted.

Instead, a very angry plaque was hung at the door, and the name of the building was not afraid of people laughing off their big teeth:

Dragon Gate Inn!

There were not many people in the inn, only a female shopkeeper named "Jin Jiyu" and three young men.

In addition, there are two chefs and three ladies in the back kitchen.

In this way, in the farthest northwest of the Great Qi Dynasty, an inn was born.

It's just that, not to mention that the inland people don't know, even the travelers in the past don't know what this Laoshzi "Dragon Gate Inn" is.

In fact, even a few people in the inn were a little confused.

After sitting all morning, "Jin Jiyu" finally couldn't help it, and sent someone to recruit a certain "initiator" who had also been sitting on the opposite side all morning......

"Xiao Ning, what are we sitting here for? Not even a ghost. ”

Deng Xueniang, the fourth master of Qingyun Village with the pseudonym "Gold Inlaid Jade", complained.

These pseudonyms are all from Lin Ning's hand.

Hu Xiaoshan, who was acting as a partner in the inn, also grabbed his little head and said depressedly: "There are people passing by on the road, but people look at us like bandits, full of defense, how can they come in and rest?" ”

Although the serious injury has not healed, Li Xuan, who has been able to go down to the ground to do some simple and rough work, said helplessly: "Can you not treat us as bandits?" There is no village in front of the village, and the most famous is the Canglan Bandit. An inn appears in the cold, who dares to live? ”

Lin Ning didn't wait for Zuo Yi, who was about to move, to speak, and rebuked with disgust: "Long-winded mother-in-law, have they all become long-tongued women?" Before Deng Xueniang got mad, she made a statement: "Aunt Xue, I didn't mean that you have a long tongue." ”

This statement made Hu Xiaoshan and Li Xuan unable to attack.

I didn't want Lin Ning to continue to turn his head and teach them a lesson: "What do you don't need patience for?" When you go into the mountains to hunt, will the prey lie down under your feet and let you go up? ”

"Poof!"

Deng Xueniang, who was drinking tea on the side, heard the word "Shang", and a mouthful of tea squirted out.

What kind of meat haven't you heard?

She is a person from the past, so she naturally understands the deep meaning of the word "Shang".

But she never expected that a certain bastard who regarded himself as a scholar would be pickled like this.

Hu Xiaoshan and Li Xuan were not youngsters, but before they could get angry, they saw Lin Ning looking at Deng Xueniang with a strange face, and asked, "Aunt Xue, what's wrong with you?" What's uncomfortable? ”

Deng Xueniang wanted to teach Lin Ning to talk bastards, but looking at his clean and clear eyes, she looked at herself suspiciously, and she didn't know where to start for a while......

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Lin Ning sincerely suggested: "Aunt Xue, why don't I diagnose your pulse, isn't it that the previous injury has recurred?" ”

Deng Xueniang really couldn't cry or laugh, shook her head, and looked at Lin Ning suspiciously, but after finding that she really couldn't see anything, she could only give up in discouragement.

Seeing that Deng Xueniang was fine, Lin Ning turned his head to look at Hu Xiaoshan, Li Xuan and Zuo Yi, and saw that the three of them were full of vigilance and ready to shoot at any time, and suddenly smiled slightly, and said: "Wait with peace of mind, you have to sit on the cold bench, and you have to sit on it hot." It's not small, but it's still fun and active? It's time to grow a little more......"

After that, seeing that the faces of the three of them turned blue and their faces were holding back the fire, Lin Ning smiled and shook the folding fan and prepared to leave.

I heard Deng Xueniang say again: "Xiao Ning, you have read a lot of books and many ways, so let's hurry up and let us have something to do." Otherwise, you will always wait, and you have to rush to something wrong. ”

Lin Ning thought for a while and said, "Aunt Xue wanted a more convenient way to operate before, didn't I write an idea about the package?" You find a wooden plank, write down the set menus and the price, and then write that the food can be taken away, and many people are just worried that this is a thief's shop, and there are sweat pills in the food...... You can also set up a stove at the door, and when you see someone coming from afar, you start cooking, and the aroma of frying is stronger...... At present, these two methods are just a try, and if it doesn't work, let's talk about it. ”

Deng Xueniang felt very satisfied, and after glancing at Lin Ning with the eyes of a "little clever ghost", she went back to prepare to go.

After Deng Xueniang left, Hu Xiaoshan, Li Xuan, and Zuo Yi stared at Lin Ning with six eyes and looked at Lin Ning together.

In the past half a month, they haven't had much chance to observe Lin Ning up close, and now they want to take a closer look at what kind of monster he has become......

Lin Ning was a little hairy by the three of them, and after glancing at the three of them with the eyes of a mentally handicapped teenager, he was about to leave.

I didn't want Hu Xiaoshan to speak again: "By the way, Xiao Ning, my father asked me to ask you, saying that the boys in the stockade have gone to the sky to pour stones, what about the water in the stockade?" ”

In Qingyun Village, there is a mountain spring in Mozhu Courtyard, but it is just enough for Aunt Chun and Lin Ning to live, and there is no other place to draft.

On weekdays, the water is used by the teenagers in the cottage, and after polishing their muscles and bones in the Canglan River, they carry the water home.

Now that these boys have been sent to collect the barricades, the draft in the cottage has become a problem......

Lin Ning was speechless and said, "This is also for me?" The fourth uncle has no water to eat, so he can take care of it himself. He is a first-class master, and he has enough food for the entire cottage for a day. ”

Hu Xiaoshan: "......"

His father is a dignified cottage and a three-in-command, and he has to do the rough work of carrying water?

Seeing that they were still noisy, Lin Ning waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I'll take the time to think about it, I can't count on you...... You should be a junior here, the future is very high. ”

After Lin Ning left the inn and returned to his broken medicine house alone, the three of them spat at his back together.

It's just that what makes the three of them aggrieved is that although Lin Ning is as annoying as before, his skills have become more than ten times bigger.

And the recent contribution to the cottage is a hundred times that of them.

Even the martial arts they have always been proud of are not worth mentioning in front of a pervert who is rare in the way of talent and luck.

Therefore, they can only endure in silence.

I just hope that one day, their martial arts skills will surpass that of some scum who doesn't like to practice martial arts......

……

Qingyun Village, Juyi Hall.

In addition to the fourth master, Deng Xueniang, who opened an inn at the foot of the mountain, several other masters and the general manager of the cottage, Sun Bo, are all there.

Fang Lin, the second master, had a gloomy face, and he looked at Zhou Chengdao: "Is it true that you can't buy a grain of rice or a piece of salt?" ”

Zhou Cheng's face was also heavy, and he said: "The direction of Yulin City has been completely martial law, and he bluntly searched for the Canglan bandits. The West Gate is especially strict, and almost every convoy is searched to make sure there is no rice salt. ”

Fang Lin's brows furrowed more and more, and he said, "This is the family's method, the Zhao family has made a move." ”

Zhou Chengdao: "Third brother, it's easy to say that the salt is poured, and you can always come up with some ideas." Kemi ......"

There are hundreds of people in Qingyun Village, and although there is a lot of salt, it will not be too much.

Send a martial arts master, and you can always carry two bags of salt back.

But the consumption of rice is too great, and it is not enough to send someone to carry a few bags.

However, Fang Lin thought more far-reaching than Zhou Cheng: "Rice is not worried, it is really impossible to go to the forest to hunt and eat meat, the key is salt." As soon as the Zhao family makes a move, where will it leave us a loophole? They will block our way to buy salt at the source.

Salt is sold exclusively in the official house, and as long as the yamen does not sell it in large quantities, the people in Yulin City are only allowed to buy it with their household registration, and we have no way at all.

This is still second, the entire Canglan Mountain is not only our family to buy salt and rice from Yulin City. If they are all stuck, Yulin City will release the wind again, because of our Qingyun Village, which will give us many big enemies.

What a sinister method, but I don't know which idea it is? ”

Zhou Cheng hurriedly said: "Third brother, it is the idea of Zhao Hua, who is too guarded by Yulin City, he is a member of the Zhao family, a son of a family, and a scholar. ”

Hu Dashan hated when he heard this: "These scholars are the most vicious, they don't see blood when they kill people, and they are very bad!" Huh......"

At this point, Hu Dashan was suddenly startled, and said with joy on his face: "Why don't you see Brother Ning?" He is also a scholar, and his methods are somewhat similar to this one! ”

No one wanted to laugh, because they couldn't laugh, they really couldn't think of any way for Lin Ning to do this kind of thing.

Fang Lin didn't bother to pay attention to Hu Dashan, and asked Old Man Sun, "Uncle Sun, how much salt and rice do you have at home?" How long can it last? ”

Uncle Sun sighed and said, "What the second master just said is that rice is a trivial matter, and it is a big deal to go into the mountains to hunt and pick wild fruits and vegetables. Can salt ...... Now the population in the cottage has increased a lot, and if you can't buy it, the cottage can only eat ten days at most. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces changed.

"Only ten days in stock?"

Fang Lin frowned, thought about it, looked at Tian Wuniang and said, "Why don't you send someone to Yunqin City in the west to buy it?" ”

Yunqin City is similar to Yulin City, and it is the northeasternmost city of Qin State.

It's 200 miles away from the ancient ferry of the low tide slope, but that's not the point.

The point is that Qin is not more relaxed than Qi Chu in China, and even if it is a businessman, it must have a degree issued by the government.

If it is a Qichu merchant, it must first be registered with the government, and it must be guaranteed by a famous or high-status person in Qin's own country before he can do business in Qin.

Without these, it would be difficult to move an inch.

Qingyun Village has no foundation in the Qin State, it is not like the Canglan Mountain Cottage over there, if you send someone there, it is no less dangerous than going to Yulin City.

Tian Wuniang shook her head and said, "No need." ”

Old man Sun hurriedly said: "The salt is not enough, but how can I get it?" Big boss, this is going to be a big deal. ”

Hu Dashan grabbed his head and was in a hurry, it was no problem for him to solve the charge, but it was really difficult for him to use his brain to solve this kind of problem, and the old saying was repeated: "The big boss, let's invite Xiao Ning to come." Although he doesn't like what he says, he does have many ways. I don't know, he has a way. ”

Old man Sun also agreed with this, and hurriedly said: "I haven't even counted the salt used in the Laoshizi Inn under the mountain, if you even count that, I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand it for five or six days!" Xiao Ning can toss, let him think of it! ”

Tian Wuniang slowly stood up, still refusing: "No need, I'll do it." Third Uncle ......"

Fang Lin hurriedly responded: "Yes." ”

Tian Wuniang said: "Arrange for the two of them to go to the grassland beggar department with me." ”

Fang Lin's face changed when he heard this, and he said, "Big boss, are you going to ask that old Ke Dun?" It's not worth it, is it? It's better to ask Xiao Ning to come back to discuss and discuss, he is no longer than before, and he has a lot more ideas, maybe there is a good way. ”

Tian Wuniang said lightly while going outside: "Although the cottage belongs to the Lin family, it is also everyone's. In the past few days, he has been very busy alone, and he does not have to work on everything. ”

Fang Lin still had to persuade again, but when he heard this, he shut up, if Tian Wuniang and Lin Ning could live a good life together, they would only be happy, so they hurriedly changed their words: "Okay, I'll go and call Fang Zhi and Zhou Shilai." ”

Tian Wuniang bowed slightly, did not make a sound, and strode to the back mountain.

After a pillar of incense, she brought some gifts, and after bringing Fang Zhi and Zhou Shi, the three rode to the first line of heaven.

Although the speed was reduced when passing by the medicine house and the inn, it did not stop, Tian Wuniang only looked at Lin Ning, nodded again, and then raised the whip again and rode the horse into the grassland.
