Chapter Ninety-Nine: Departure
Tomorrow is the day to go to Kyoto to take up his post, and in the past few days, Qin Han has said goodbye to several people he knows one by one, and has made arrangements for various businesses in his hands.
There is a restaurant that is still managed by Gong Zisong, who already has a good talent for cooking, and the restaurant will launch new dishes from time to time.
The shaved ice shop has opened branches in several prefectures and counties in Anping and is under the management of a housekeeper of the Li Mansion in Anping.
Restaurants, shaved ice shops, and teahouses that are about to open will basically not have much of a problem, as long as they develop step by step, there will be no trouble.
The beggar gang has long infiltrated several prefectures and counties near Anping, after all, Qin Han has no shortage of silver in his hands, and the beggars do not have particularly high requirements, whoever can let them eat their stomachs will be willing to die for whom.
In order to let the beggar gang play a greater role, after Qin Han was assassinated, he also recruited a few veterans from Li Cunxin's house and sent them to the beggar gang as elders. Several of the veterans were all petty officers in the barracks, and if they weren't physically disabled, they wouldn't have retired. Even if Qin Han picked it up, it was just right for them to take their brothers to practice a simple military formation and give full play to the advantage of having a large number of people.
Qin Han had already asked Hong Laoqi to send people to Kyoto, and when he left, Qin Han also allocated two hundred taels of silver to them. Kyoto is a place where a fourth-grade official can be stoned to death by throwing a brick at random, but Qin Han is not familiar with it at all, if he doesn't have the ears and eyes to find out the various relationships for him, it is really more difficult to survive.
Liangshan's 100 households have been completely handed over to Wang Chong, and he still trusts Wang Chong's Qin Han very much. However, he didn't tell him about the rice fields and potato fields, but just asked him to make it easier for Sunday.
It was late at night, Qin Han was lying in bed but couldn't sleep, just like before he was going to report to the university, he was about to face a strange city and a group of strange people.
Thinking back to the various things since his rebirth, Qin Han still had a lot of things he didn't understand. Who was the person who sent the note to him in the first place, is it really a coincidence that Wang Laohu was abolished, and whether this thing was done by one person. Also, what did he do to be hunted down and killed, why didn't Xiao Tao tell him before leaving......
Everything made Qin Han have no clue, and he didn't think of any clues, just a sigh and slowly fell asleep.
……
There was something in his heart, Qin Han didn't sleep very well, and woke up early. Qin Han woke up early, but someone woke up earlier than Qin Han.
"This, this, and that, all wrap up, my uncle loves sweets, and I don't like to be too greasy, and my uncle loves these three pastries made by Miss."
Xiu'er pointed to a few pastries on the table and instructed the subordinates on the side.
Qin Han rubbed his eyes, looked at Xiu'er and said, "Xiu'er, why is it so early, Luo Ning, is she up?" ”
Xiu'er saluted this Qin Han, pointed to the kitchen, and said, "Uncle, Miss got up early, and the pastries on the table were all bought by Miss and her subordinates early in the morning. I just remembered that my uncle likes to drink soup, so I went to the kitchen to stew soup. ”
As soon as Qin Han heard Xiu'er say, his heart was warm, he had to be busy with so many things, Chu Luoning must have gotten up early. Thinking about it, Qin Han went to the kitchen, and sure enough, he saw Chu Luoning fanning fanning the small stove.
"You don't need to get up so early, why don't you sleep a little longer."
Chu Luoning looked at Qin Han and smiled, and said, "If you get up late, you won't be able to catch up if you boil the soup again." ”
Qin Han sighed and reproached: "It's okay if you can't catch up, it's better to let you have a good rest." ”
Chu Luoning shook his head and said, "This time to go to Kyoto will definitely not be short, for such a long time, I can't make soup for you." ”
Hearing Chu Luoning say this, Qin Han felt that his nose was a little sour.
"Don't worry, if I stabilize in Kyoto, I'll pick you up then."
Chu Luo replied, "Take me? What about business in Anping? ”
Qin Han smiled and said, "When the time comes, we will open the teahouse and restaurant to Kyoto." Then take my father-in-law over, and we'll have a home in Kyoto by then. ”
Chu Luoning smiled at Qin Han and replied, "That's not easy, Kyoto is much more prosperous than Anping, where is it so easy to do business." ”
Qin Han patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, don't you have me." ”
……
Before leaving, there was one more thing to do, and after breakfast, Qin Han rode to Uncle Sun's blacksmith shop.
"Uncle, have you got my knife ready?" Qin Han entered the door and asked Uncle Sun, who was still busy.
Uncle Sun nodded and walked towards the warehouse. "Childe, wait a minute, the old man will go and fetch it for Childe."
After a while, Old Man Sun took Qin Han's Tang Dao over. Qin Han pulled out the scabbard, and with the help of the sun, a cold light flashed. The blade that was originally smooth has become extremely sharp.
Qin Han nodded with satisfaction, took out the silver from his arms, and handed it to Uncle Sun.
"Thank you, Uncle Sun."
Uncle Sun took the silver and looked at the Tang knife in Qin Han's hand, but his face was solemn. As a blacksmith, and his ancestors were blacksmiths, Uncle Sun had never seen metal of this material.
Yesterday, Uncle Sun also tested it with a Tang knife, but he didn't expect that the originally hard hoe could be easily cut out by him. But you say it's hard, but its toughness is excellent, and it can bend easily. After a lifetime of iron, Uncle Sun has never seen this kind of material.
Qin Han turned around and wanted to leave, but he remembered another thing.
"By the way, Uncle Sun, don't you still open a carpenter's shop, do you know how to make crossbows?"
Uncle Sun's dark face was startled, and it was not until he saw that Qin Han had no other movements that he slowly eased up, and said with a smile: "Childe said that he laughed, the little old man has never heard of such a thing as a hand crossbow, he has only heard of the crossbow used in the army, and besides, these are all things in the army, and the little old man has never seen it." ”
Qin Han was slightly disappointed, yes, these things are strategic materials at this time, where do ordinary people have them, let's go back and ask Brother Xin.
Qin Han nodded and was about to leave.
Looking at Qin Han's expression, Uncle Sun suddenly stopped Qin Han.
"Young Master Qin, wait a minute, although the old man doesn't have the crossbow that Gongzi said, I don't know if this thing is okay."
With that, Uncle Sun ran to the warehouse again, and after a while, he took out a box with a lot of dust and handed it to Qin Han.
"What is this?"
Qin Han patted the dust, slowly opened the box, and saw something strangely shaped.
"It's a Hidden Arrow!"
Qin Han was stunned by Uncle Sun's words all of a sudden, and he really didn't know how Uncle Sun had such a secret weapon in his hands.
"This is left by the little old man's father, but I don't know where it came from, but it must be able to meet the needs of the son."
Hearing what Uncle Sun said, Qin Han suddenly burst into ecstasy, this is much more hidden than a hand crossbow.
……
Not long after Qin Han returned home, Li Cunxin rushed over with his luggage.
Li Cunxin looked at Qin Han's big bag and small bag, and couldn't help but tease: "Why are you carrying so many things, it's the same as moving." It's a one-day trip to Kyoto, and I've already arranged it in Kyoto, so I'll just get a few changes of clothes. ”
Qin Han glanced at Li Cunxin, but he still ordered his subordinates to take back all the useless things, leaving only some clothes and pastries for Chu Luo to sit on.
There were a lot of people standing at the gate of Chu Mansion, all of whom came to see off the two.
Qin Han pinched Chu Luoning's sad face, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, with Brother Xin, I am not without support in Kyoto." ”
Chu Luoning nodded, forcing a smile out. This made Qin Han feel a little depressed, and he was also full of reluctance when he looked at Chu Luoning.
Qin Han looked around, then at Chu Luoning, took a long breath, and printed at Chu Luoning's small mouth.
It's so sweet! It's so soft!!
After Qin Han kissed him, he took advantage of everyone's stunned efforts to turn over and get on the horse, leaving the shy Chu Luoning, the dog food stuffed with Gong Zisong, the stunned bystanders, and the angry old man Chu.
"I'm leaving!"
