Chapter 32: Armor

~~~~~~~

After leaving the Baofeng Hall mansion, Li Yuanqing's heart couldn't help but brighten up a lot. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although she knew that Miss Qu was a member of the Qu family, even if the city of Guangning was broken, she might not be hurt by the Houjin Army.

But the eavesdropping that night let Li Yuanqing know that she was in the Qu family, and she was actually not having a good time, and the reason why the family would marry her to Guangning was to a large extent just to bury a useful chess piece in the 'commercial fortress' of Guangning.

Moreover, her marriage with the Zhang family is likely to be in name only, which means that in terms of feelings, she may not be so talented and decisive in business.

Although Li Yuanqing also knew that it was tantamount to whimsical to want something to really happen with this Miss Qu family, this did not prevent Li Yuanqing from planting a seed in her heart in advance.

Even if there are many difficulties and obstacles, but over time, this seed will take root and sprout, especially ~~, when the city of Quang Ninh is broken.

Miss Qu can refuse herself, but she shouldn't refuse, a person who really cares about her.

Leaving Baofeng Hall, Li Yuanqing came directly to Yang Jiao~Niang's house.

Originally, Li Yuanqing planned to wait for Yang Jiao~ Niang to be optimistic about the shop, and he also carefully inspected it, and then decided on the agenda of the acquisition, but at this time, time was too critical for Li Yuanqing, and he could only do it in a hurry.

Yang Jiao~ When her mother saw Li Yuanqing coming, she couldn't help but be overjoyed, she had already looked at a few facades, and was busy explaining to Li Yuanqing one by one.

Li Yuanqing shook his head with a smile, "Jiao~ Mother, you can just make your own mind about this matter." I'm leaving Quang Ninh tonight. It's the silver ticket, and you hold it. ”

Saying that, Li Yuanqing directly stuffed three thousand taels of silver tickets into Yang Jiao~'s mother's little hand, "Your enemy and I have limited financial resources, and these have been saved from between my teeth." Of course, Jiao ~ Niang, you can also run away with this silver, find a good man, and live a good life. I don't blame you. As long as you can live well, I am relieved. ”

Yang Jiao~ Mother didn't expect Li Yuanqing to come up with such a big scene, and it was so sad, tears couldn't stop flowing, "Wrongdoer, you, why are you so good to me?" Why? Why? I'm really going to find a man to live with. ”

Li Yuanqing smiled, "There is no reason." Meeting is fate. You helped me, and I must help you. Remember, be sure to live well. We'll see each other again. ”

Li Yuanqing was just about to leave, but Yang Jiao~ Niang hugged Li Yuanqing and didn't let him go, "Wrongdoer, stay with me for a while." I'm afraid, if you're gone, I'll never see you again. ”

Li Yuanqing smiled and took Yang Jiao~ Niang in his arms, "Jiao~ Niang, remember, the phoenix also crawled out of the chicken nest." It's important to remember that your own safety is always your top priority. Money is nothing but something outside the body. My side is really urgent, in fact, it may not be as pessimistic as I imagined, if things go well, it will not be more than a year at most, and we will definitely have a chance to meet again. ”

"Enemy ......" Yang Jiao~ Niang looked at Li Yuanqing's back, two lines of tears, and couldn't help but slide down her cheeks.

She was sold into a kiln by her family at the age of six, and she didn't know how many benefactors she had, but it was the first time that someone had said such things to her and trusted her so much......

…………

Back at the big mansion, Shang Lao Liu and Shunzi had already packed up their ropes.

Zhang Yunniang and Liu Chunhua didn't expect that after a day together, the family would face separation again.

Li Yuanqing smiled and wiped away the tears on Zhang Yunniang's face, "Yunniang, someone from Baofeng Hall will contact you soon." When you get to Zhangjiakou, you can settle down there first, and it is best to be in contact with Miss Naqu often. She is well-informed and very resourceful, and if you have any problems in my absence, you can look for her. ”

Zhang Yunniang nodded vigorously, "Brother, you must take care." ”

Li Yuanqing smiled, "Yes." Wait until I come back and marry you. ”

At this time, Shang Lao Liu had already finished saying goodbye to Liu Chunhua and the girl, wiped away his tears, and came to Li Yuanqing's side.

Li Yuanqing smiled and said to Shunzi not far away: "Shunzi, go and say goodbye to your sister." ”

Junko nodded, "Brother, you wait for me, I'll be back right away." It seems that he is afraid that Li Yuanqing will leave him alone.

Parting is always sad, but the new journey is full of expectations.

Shang Lao Liu had already bought three good horses in advance and prepared a lot of dry food, and the three of them left the city at dusk and went straight to Xiping Fort.

Xipingbao is located in the southeast of Guangning City, away from the sand ridge, very close, now Liaozhong, Liaonan lost, although Xipingbao is not like the sand ridge, become the forward position of the Ming army, but it is an important material transit place.

The reason why Li Yuanqing did not go back to Mao Wenlong's camp directly, but went to Xiping Fort first, is mainly because Chen Jisheng may still be in Xiping Fort now, and Li Yuanqing also needs to say hello to Chen Jisheng in advance for some things, and briefly report his itinerary by the way.

Between people, even if they are brothers who are connected by blood, if they are separated from each other and do not communicate often, they will become strangers after a long time.

The devil is in the details.

In this regard, especially when Li Yuanqing's own strength is not strong at this time, personal connections have become the key, and Li Yuanqing does not dare to be careless about this.

A day later, the three arrived at Xiping Fort, and sure enough, Chen Jisheng had not left.

This is mainly because Chen Jisheng's 'fate' behavior in Xipingbao has not received effective support and is not very smooth.

Although he has a few old friends who are not low in Xiping Fort, it is a pity that things are not people, there is no silver, others will naturally not give him too many benefits, although he will not refuse his face, but it is like a flower child, which makes Chen Jisheng extremely embarrassed.

When Li Yuanqing learned of these circumstances, he did not hesitate at all, and immediately took out five hundred taels of silver tickets and handed them to Chen Jisheng, asking Chen Jisheng to buy some horses and ordnance from his old friends.

Chen Jisheng couldn't help but be shocked when he saw Li Yuanqing's generous move, and hurriedly said: "Yuanqing, this, what's going on?" ”

Li Yuanqing hurriedly smiled and briefly recounted his business in Guangning City to Chen Jisheng, of course, the general plot is similar, but when it comes to various secret details, it is naturally minus a lot.

Chen Jisheng couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, "Yuanqing, I can't imagine that you still have this ability, this, this is really ...... Hahaha. ”

With the silver, Chen Jisheng went to communicate with his old friends again, and it immediately became a lot smoother. When he returned that night, he brought back not only ten horses, but also a dozen pieces of armor and dozens of fine blades, which were worth several times more than five hundred taels of silver.

Especially armor, a hundred taels of silver, it is even difficult to buy.

When Li Yuanqing saw these armors, he couldn't help but love them.

In the era of cold weapons, good armor is equivalent to the 'body armor' of later generations, which can more effectively protect one's life, which is equivalent to one's second life, who can not like it?

Chen Jisheng couldn't help laughing when he saw Li Yuanqing's appearance, "Eye to eye, right?" These are all good goods in Jingshi. Its cost price is also above 100 taels. If it weren't for the fact that those turtle grandsons were short of money, they wouldn't give it to me easily. ”

Li Yuanqing hurriedly said: "Big brother, do they still have anything there?" Armor of such quality? ”

Chen Jisheng smiled: "Even if there is, I'm afraid it can't be sold to us." After all, this is a life-saving thing, although those turtle grandchildren are ruthless, they don't dare to joke with their own lives. ”

Li Yuanqing's unspeakable regret.

The reason why the old slave started so smoothly is that it is the thirteen pairs of excellent armor handed down from his ancestors.

On the other hand, on the side of the Ming army, due to the extremely low treatment of craftsmen and the serious shortage of military funds allocated by the imperial court, most of them were eaten by officials.

This is also why on the battlefield, a soldier of the Houjin Army can even chase dozens of Ming soldiers around, and ten people can capture a county town......

"Huh. Like it, right? Chen Jisheng looked at Li Yuanqing with a smile.

Li Yuanqing couldn't help but be speechless, nonsense, as a soldier, who the hell doesn't like this thing? "Big brother, you're not talking nonsense."

Chen Jisheng laughed, "If you like it, you can pick a few pairs, don't you still have two followers?" Pick one for them too. ”

Li Yuanqing couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Big brother, what about you?" And the general's side? ”

Chen Jisheng said with a smile: "This, don't worry, it's all used by our soldiers themselves, and there is no problem on the general's side." ”

Li Yuanqing was immediately relieved, what Chen Jisheng got was his own silver, and it was normal for him to take a few pairs of armor by himself.

Li Yuanqing took the lead in picking a pair of silver iron armor, which was composed of small iron scales, like fish scales, very tight, although it was not ingenious, but it was not much different.

Li Yuanqing couldn't wait to wear it on his body, it fit properly, and then picked up his waist knife, and an indescribable pride suddenly came from the bottom of his heart.

"Big brother, this feels really good."

Chen Jisheng laughed, "It's good to have silver." ”

Soon, Shang Lao Liu and Shunzi also came to pick a pair, as well as Chen Jisheng's two personal soldiers, who were also one person and one pair, and everyone was overjoyed.

But this time, there are less than ten pairs of armor left, except for the ones left for Mao Wenlong, I am afraid, and even big soldiers like Mao Chenglu, Chen Zhong, and Zhang Pan can wear them.

Chen Jisheng smiled and said: "Yuanqing, you don't have to worry about this, as long as we can win the battle, are you afraid of missing this bit of armor?" ”

Li Yuanqing also reacted, nodded emphatically, and laughed: "Big brother, I can't wait." ”

…………

When they left the camp, whether it was Li Yuanqing or Chen Jisheng, they were all poor, but when they returned to the camp this time, not only did everyone have horses, but also fine armor to protect themselves, not to mention the arrogance.

With horses, what used to be a few days away can now be reached in half a day.

Li Yuanqing and his entourage set out early in the morning, and before evening, they had already returned to the camp by the sea.

At this time, it happened to be April 28 of the first year of the Apocalypse, two days earlier than the end of the month stipulated by Mao Wenlong.

Coming to the camp again, Li Yuanqing also found that the camp had changed a lot.

Not only are the various defensive measures more rigorous, but the nearly 200 soldiers who are training in the sunset have also reached a certain scale.

Mao Wenlong practiced in person, and the results were remarkable.

The two arranged for their respective soldiers to rest, and then went to meet Mao Wenlong.

Shang Lao Liu and Shunzi naturally became Li Yuanqing's personal soldiers at this time.

Mao Wenlong was also very happy to see the two of them come back safely, Chen Jisheng took the lead in reporting the results of the trip to Mao Wenlong, and Mao Wenlong's old face couldn't help but smile after hearing this.

Subsequently, Li Yuanqing also reported to Mao Wenlong the harvest of this trip, especially when he took out the 1,000 taels of loose tickets, Mao Wenlong's eyes widened.

He was worried that he had no silver, and he was arguing with those civil officials in Guangning, and at this time, Li Yuanqing's silver definitely solved his urgent need.

At this time, Mao Chenglu and Chen Zhong, who had come back in advance, heard the news that Chen Jisheng and Li Yuanqing were back, and they also came to the big tent.

Especially the silver ticket and the armor will simply blind their eyes.

Chen Zhong even said: "General, I'll say it first, I don't want a silver ticket." But you'll have to keep me a pair of this armor. Otherwise, I wouldn't be here tonight. ”

Mao Wenlong couldn't help laughing, "You kid, you're going to give someone a problem." You have to ask Jisheng and Yuanqing if they agree? ”

Chen Jisheng couldn't help but smile and didn't say anything.

Li Yuanqing hurriedly said: "Brother Chen, except for the general's, you can pick the rest yourself." It's just that those people don't sell it, or I'll get more. ”

The crowd couldn't help but laugh.

At this time, Mao Wenlong stood up solemnly and said loudly: "Chen Jisheng and Li Yuanqing listen to the seal." ”
