(Is it late for the first shift?) ）

When Qin Cheng, who changed into civilian clothes, returned to Qiansang, he saw that it was still early, so he went directly to a small shop not far from his home, ready to buy some fruits and go back.

The shopkeeper, Lao Yang, is a middle-aged man with a simple appearance, with a round general's belly, a wide cloth coat covering his fat body, which looks like a big bucket. When Lao Yang saw Qin Cheng, a face full of fat showed a somewhat exaggerated and deformed smile, and he came out from behind the counter, "General Qin, you are back!" Come in and sit down, some new sorrel has been made in the store today, which is cool and fragrant, and I will serve you some ......"

Lao Yang greeted Qin Cheng warmly and told the shopkeeper to go and get the sorrel.

Qin Cheng sat in the store under Lao Yang's greeting, and was accustomed to Lao Yang's call for himself "you old", "Lao Yang, I haven't seen you for a few days, and there is more fat on your face, it seems that business in the store is good these days." ”

"That's all taken care of by the general, isn't the villain stained with the light on his head." Lao Yang took the sorrel from the hands of the guys in the store and filled a bowl for Qin Cheng, "You can taste it and see if my mother-in-law's craftsmanship is bad?" ”

Sorrel is a thin suspension of cooked starch, which has undergone appropriate fermentation changes to produce some lactic acid, which has a sour taste and aroma, and is used as a refreshing drink. Qin Cheng tasted it, smashed his mouth, and praised: "Good thing, I haven't drunk such a delicious drink for a long time, it's really rare, this has been in the military camp for a long time, and the bird can fade out of the mouth, and as soon as I come back, I can drink such a fragrant and delicious drink, which is really comfortable." ”

Hearing Qin Cheng's praise, the smile on Lao Yang's face became even worse, he rubbed his hands, and said, "That's good, if the general likes it, I will serve all the general's sorrel in the store to the general, and the general will take it back and ......drink it slowly."

Qin Cheng waved his hand and said, "You don't need to bring it all, but you can put a bamboo tube on me, and I'll bring it back for my family to taste." After that, he put down the bowl, corrected the color, and said to Lao Yang in a low voice: "Lao Yang, is there any news from the north?" ”

"This is a letter from Master Nangong to the general." Lao Yang's face became solemn at this time, he took out a bamboo tube from his sleeve that was only the thickness of his thumb and the length of his middle finger and handed it to Qin Cheng, "Master Nangong explained that he took care of the affairs in the north, and the general could rest assured." ”

Qin Cheng quietly stuffed the bamboo tube into his belt, and explained to Lao Yang: "In addition to the north, you should also pay attention here, we can arrange people to mix in the north, and the north can also arrange people to mix in with us, don't care about one or the other, if there is any difficulty, just say it and listen to me, understand?" ”

"The villain understands, although the general can rest assured, the villain's eyes are bright!" Old Yang Zhengse said.

"It's not just about the eyes, it's about the place." Qin Cheng lightly hit the heart twice with his fist.

"The villain knows!" Lao Yang said.

"Hmm!" Qin Cheng stood up, the seriousness on his face disappeared, and he changed to a relaxed tone and said to Lao Yang: "Fill me with some fresh fruits, I will bring them back." And you sorrel, put a tube on me. ”

"Okay, General, wait a minute!" Lao Yang answered, and went to Qin Cheng to select fruits in person.

Not long after, Qin Cheng carried some fruits out of Yang Ji's old store and headed towards the Heavenly Wolf Residence.

When he entered the house, Qin Cheng stopped the servant's intention to report to Bai Xinxin, and entered the courtyard lightly.

There is a large pool of water in the backyard of the Sky Wolf House, which is extremely rare in the houses of a border county like Ueya, the pool is quite large, and these unknown aquatic plants grow irregularly, and there is a corridor built on the water, and there is a pavilion in the middle of the corridor.

At this time, Bai Xinxin, who was dressed in red, was sitting on the gazebo, holding a book in her hand and looking at it intently, Xiao Rong'er was bored and sprinkled something into the pool at the edge of the pavilion, looking like she was teasing the small fish in the water.

Maybe it was because of the volume of reading the book, Bai Xinxin put down the book in her hand, rubbed her brows, got up and walked to Xiao Rong'er, slapped her little head, and pretended to be strange: "It's such a big person, I don't know how to read more books and be a female celebrity, just play around, how can you get married in the future?" ”

Xiao Rong'er raised her head and showed a bright smile to Bai Xinxin, pointing to the hippie smiles of the various fish in the water that were amused by him and gathered in circles: "Sister Bai, you see those fish are so stupid, they came over as soon as I threw things, and they were so happy, they didn't know that I was teasing them!" ”

"I'm a god!" Bai Xinxin slapped her forehead, a little speechless at Xiao Rong'er's words, and then said: "Zi Fei fish, the joy of knowing fish?" ”

"I'm not a fish, but I'm happy, so the fish that play with me must be happy too!" Xiao Rong'er is serious.

"You watch them happy, they probably watch you happy too!" Bai Xinxin smiled, and after speaking, as if she suddenly felt something, she turned her head and looked at the front yard. When he turned around, he saw Qin Cheng walking towards the small pavilion with sorrel and fruits.

"General." Under the sun, on the pool, in the gazebo, a red dress whispered.

Hearing Bai Xinxin's call, Qin Cheng smiled slightly and raised the sorrel berry in his hand.

"This is the sorrel from Lao Yang, the taste is not bad, you two can also taste it." Qin Cheng put down the sorrel and the fruit, and sat down in the pavilion.

Xiao Rong'er smiled and took the pottery bowl from the servant who followed Qin Cheng, placed it on the table in the pavilion, took the bamboo tube and opened it, and began to serve the pulp for everyone.

"The general has a lot of stubble on his face when he comes back this time, I'm afraid he hasn't cleaned it up for several days, right?" Bai Xinxin looked at Qin Cheng affectionately, picked up the sorrel and took a sip, "The entrance is sweet and sour, and it has a fragrance, it's really a good thing!" ”

"Where can I take care of these in the barracks, if I don't come back, you will shave me, I am too lazy to do it myself, and the barracks are not equipped with military mirrors." Qin Cheng smiled, looking at Bai Xinxin's eyes a little fiery.

Feeling Qin Cheng's hot eyes, Bai Xinxin naturally knew what the meaning in Qin Cheng's eyes was, in front of Xiao Rong'er, she was a little embarrassed, her face flushed, she lowered her head slightly, and then realized that she couldn't let Qin Cheng be bullied like this, so she raised her head and boldly looked back at Qin Cheng, and saw Qin Cheng's tiger body shocked.

"The general can bring the bronze mirror at home to the army, or simply let Sister Bai go to the barracks, so that he will not be afraid of stubble in the future!" Xiao Rong'er held the clay wooden bowl with slurry and said with big eyes.

"Go, go, what do the children know." Qin Cheng said, and then said to Bai Xinxin: "Come, rub my shoulders, these days are either under the sun all day long, or galloping around on horseback, my bones are going to fall apart!" ”

"If the general is tired, lie down and rest for a while, and it will be cool in this pavilion." Bai Xinxin walked behind Qin Cheng, stretched out his hands that were as white as jade and put them on Qin Cheng's shoulders, and began to knead them slowly.

Feeling the soreness from his shoulders and Bai Xinxin's flexible hands, Qin Cheng almost came out of comfort, he took out the small bamboo tube that Lao Yang handed over to him, took out a brocade silk from it, stretched out his legs, and gave Xiao Rong'er a look: "Don't be idle, come and rub my legs." ”

“…… General, you're in for a treat! Xiao Rong'er muttered dissatisfiedly, but the movements in her hands were not ambiguous at all, Ma Li put down the bowl and knelt beside Qin Cheng's legs, a pair of small hands started from the ankles, and began to knead the strong calves of the Qin Cheng man inch by inch.

"Well, that's comfortable!" Qin Cheng shouted comfortably, then opened the brocade silk and looked at it carefully.

This brocade silk was given to Qincheng by Nangong Shang, Lao Yang, the owner of the old Yang Ji store, was a small shop under the Nangong Chamber of Commerce, and Lao Yang was also a member of the Chamber of Commerce, and to put it simply, he was his own person.

In the past six months, with the dual assistance of Qincheng's official documents and the elite sergeants of the military camp, the chamber of commerce established by Nangong Shang has initially formed a relatively large-scale, although the chamber of commerce is underground, but because it has previously obtained Liu Che's approval, Qincheng is not afraid to report to the imperial court after monitoring the imperial history (assassination history) to find out what clues, and in a border county like Shanggu, the county guard also serves as the captain, and the actual power to supervise the imperial history is much lower than that of the counties around the Central Plains.

The Chamber of Commerce is both illegal and legal, it is Shanggu's, and it is also the entire Han Dynasty, and the key lies in how Qincheng and Nangong merchants operate, so that the operation of the Chamber of Commerce will not embarrass Liu Che on the premise of ensuring profits to the greatest extent.

In this world, black and white are not so clear and illegal and illegal are not so clear, in the final analysis, it depends on whether the ruler and the ruling class give you room to live, what the ruler and the ruling class say, then what it is, what the ruler and the ruling class want you to do, even if you are innocent, you have to obediently do it.

In the past six months, the Chamber of Commerce has basically controlled all the markets where the merchants of Shanggu traded with the Huns, and the result of such a monopoly is not only the control of the Chamber of Commerce over the transaction prices, but also greatly facilitates the intelligence agencies in the Chamber of Commerce to collect intelligence in the territory of the Xiongnu.

And according to Qin Cheng and Nangong Shang's expectations, the level that the Chamber of Commerce has reached now is far from enough.

There are a few crosses in the brocade silk in Qin Cheng's hand, and the content mentioned is very simple, first explaining the movements of the Huns that the intelligence agency of the Chamber of Commerce has recently detected - the army has frequent activities, mainly training and hunting. The hunting of the nomads is like the military exercise of the Central Plains army, and its effect on improving the actual combat of the army is even stronger than that of the military exercise in the Central Plains.

The contents of this part did not arouse much curiosity in Qin Cheng, and these contents were also mentioned in previous intelligence, which was nothing more than an indication that the Huns were preparing for a big operation.

The corners of Qin Cheng's mouth hooked: The Huns are preparing, the Han army is also preparing, and it is not known who will kill the deer at that time, but it is conceivable that the battle will be very exciting at that time.

Qin Cheng followed Nangong Shang's notes and looked down, his face gradually becoming solemn.

After reading the brocade silk, Qin Cheng handed the brocade silk to the servants guarding the side, and said lightly: "It's burned!" ”

"No!" The servant agreed to the promise, and immediately took out the fire fold and burned the brocade silk in front of Qin Cheng, from beginning to end, the servant did not look at the handwriting in the brocade silk.

Qin Cheng closed his eyes, while enjoying Bai Xinxin and Xiao Rong'er's massage, while thinking about the content mentioned in the brocade silk that was enough to attract his attention.
