Chapter 138, Xiuxiu returns
Tian Xiuxiu, who was leaning on the soft couch in the carriage, was wearing a loose blue brocade skirt at the moment, her body was obviously lazy, and her face was slightly fatter; For Xiao Ju's happy voice, she just raised her half-closed eyebrows and pointed to the water bag next to her, "Xiao Ju,"
"Oh, Miss, you're uncomfortable again," Xiao Ju hurriedly turned around and gave Miss half a glass of water, "Come, drink some water,"
While serving Tian Xiuxiu to drink water, Xiao Ju complained softly, "I said Miss, you should have let people know about Ximen Baihu and let him come here to pick us up, he is about to become a father, and he hasn't gone to the old man's mansion to give a dowry,"
Her nagging made Tian Xiuxiu frown slightly, but she was helpless, Xiao Ye's situation, she had heard about it in the Tian family's house in Gansu Town, if it weren't for the clamoring to come back, or even a hunger strike, it is estimated that Tian Guanglin would not agree to let him go.
This time, because Zhang Zhong contacted Jinyiwei, he suddenly raided Laoxiangkou Tunbao and Shiguantun, and she and the maid were arrested in the backyard of the hundred households; Fortunately, Jiang Cheng recognized her as the Tian family, and asked Jin Yiwei to find a carriage and send them to Tian Fangjun in the hilly workshop area.
After several turnovers, after Tian Fangjun sent Tian Xiuxiu back to Gansu Town, an envoy told Tian Fangjun that this Miss Tian was pregnant.
Needless to say, the child must be Ximen Xiaoye, which Tian Xiuxiu happily admitted.
Tian Fangjun, who was angry, immediately sent the news back to the Taiyuan family, and when he received the reply, the Madao trade road had been open for half a month.
For merchants, the most painful thing in the world is to watch others make a lot of money, but they have to wait, wait for the family to agree, and then they can follow behind to compete for their own interests; That's how Tian Fangjun is feeling now.
He also knew that if it weren't for the fact that the ticket paper in the money village in Taiyuan would be consumed immediately, I am afraid that it would not be so easy for the family to let go of Ximen Xiaoye, especially Tian Xiuxiu's father Tian Lunyu.
Besides, Tian Xiuxiu has been married to the Wang family, even if she is a concubine, she is a member of the Wang family, but now it is good, Tian Xiuxiu has appeared, but she is already two months pregnant.
Hey, I don't know how much benefit the family has come up with, so that the Wang family can relax and stop biting about Xiuxiu, Tian Fangjun, who was riding on the horse, shook his head depressedly, he was dissatisfied with Xiao Ye in his heart, let alone the Wang family who suffered a dumb loss.
Simon's kid, maybe it's not clear, he offended the Wang family, and his future in officialdom is basically over, maybe worse.
But now the white flute paper in Xiao Ye's hand, the Tian family can't easily touch this stunned boy before they grasp the source of goods, so Tian Xiuxiu returned to Madao Stone Castle and his party.
In the final analysis, Tian Xiuxiu has been given up by Tian Lunyu, but the final value still has to be fought for.
When the Tian family caravan arrived at the Madao checkpoint, it was already dark, and Shi Chang Liu, who was guarding behind the stone wall, saw the banner of the Tian family's sign, and let the brothers hold guns to block the comers.
Wang Dali had already returned to the stone fort on time with the craftsmen of the logistics team, and the caravan that came to trade had to rest in that clearing for one night, and could not continue trading until noon tomorrow.
The guards of the Huang family and the Wang family, who had already encircled the territory on the gentle slope, sat outside the tent, eating dry food and watching the late Tian family caravan, and several small leaders who gathered together to drink ale, giggling and pointing from afar.
The large open space next to the road in the south of the checkpoint, the best terrain has been occupied by the two major merchants, and the rest has also been circled by several merchants in the Gansu Town Chamber of Commerce, and other small merchants can make do with the crowding, but the Tian family has no place to stay.
The merchants, who were waiting to see the joke, saw a long caravan, which stopped on the road for a while, and Tian Fangjun, who was walking in front, dismounted and went to the side of the stone wall, and talked to the sergeant guarding for a while, and the sergeant in the khaki clothes directly removed the antlers at the entrance.
Da Liu, who was carrying a fire/gun, walked out of the stone wall first, walked quickly to the carriage in the middle of the caravan, and asked softly, "Dare to ask, but the third lady is in the car, and the subordinate Ximen Baihu is Da Liu,"
Da Liu was Xiao Ye's personal guard not long ago, he and Tian Xiuxiu have met many times, and they are also familiar with the voice of the third lady.
"Da Liu, it's you, Brother Xiao, is he here?" In the carriage, Tian Xiuxiu's voice of surprise came, but the canopy window still did not open.
"So that the third lady can rest assured, everything is fine in the hundred households in the West Gate, and it is in the hundred households in the stone castle behind," Da Liu's face was also happy, he bowed his hand, bowed his head and replied loudly, "The subordinates will put the switch card, and the caravan can go directly to the stone castle,"
After speaking, Da Liu took a step back, turned around and went to Tian Fangjun; Tian Xiuxiu's position next to Xiao Ye, Da Liu is very clear, this shrewd housekeeper, the means of sorting out the internal affairs of hundreds of households, the two ladies together can't catch up.
sent a herald to go back to deliver the message first, and Da Liu commanded his subordinates to move a few thick antler stone piles outside the checkpoint to the side, allowing the caravan to enter slowly; If it weren't for the corner fort at the back of the checkpoint, where another team of people was guarded, the entrance to the stone wall would not have widened to allow for carriages.
The ten guards with torches lined up for the caravan to shine on, and respectfully watched the carriage go away, and then quickly moved the antlers back to their original places.
The Tian family caravan actually passed the checkpoint, so that the merchants and guards who wanted to see the joke suddenly froze, and then, among the crowds gathered on the gentle slope of the road, there were a bunch of people on the left and on the right, and they talked about each other.
Tian Xiuxiu killed her fiancé earlier, and was snatched away by horse thieves, and now she is leaning on Ximen Xiaoye, maybe she is even pasted with a tartar, or she has a relationship with the Persians.
Ma Dao Stone Fort, Hundred Households, Xiao Ye was sitting in the front yard at the moment, drinking warm tea with Xin Rulin, and looking at Qin Shi and Miao Biwu in front of him with an unkind face.
The two of them had already told Baihu and Xin Rulin about the situation of going back and forth to Haixi Village, and the hot wind sweeping on the mountainside made them sweat profusely.
"Scouts and guards only have one round of vigilance, it seems that you two treat the drill as child's play, fifteen miles before and after three rounds, you have forgotten this rule? Or do you think Lao Tzu is the best in the world? ”
"Miao Biwu, you can't remember, can you still forget Qin Dazui? What's going on in your head?"
"Twenty-three people, twenty-three died, and the corpses were left behind, that was our brother, just thrown on the grassland, do you two centurions want to do it?"
"There are also five seriously wounded, Aman's cavalry was killed so much that they were thrown to the grassland in shame,"
Xiao Ye, whose voice was getting higher and higher, almost roared at the end, if it weren't for Xin Rulin being accompanied by him, the teacup in his hand would have been smashed over a long time ago.
Compared with two years ago, after escaping more death, Xiao Ye, who is young and old, has grown into an imposing officer, even if he is not armed now, but the evil intent on his body makes people dare not look at it directly.
This is also what Xin Rulin is most worried about.
Miao Biwu and Qin Shishi, who had their heads down, and Ah Man, who was standing at the gate of the courtyard and didn't dare to approach, were so hot and dry by Xiao Ye's words that they couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground and get in.
It's okay to say if they are pulled out and beaten with a military stick, but if they are scolded by Baihu, then the days ahead will be uncomfortable, at least, before they fight with the Tartars again, they will have no face to see people.
You know, Sun Xiaoming and Shang An Shangtie are outside, and the news in the stone castle is spreading too fast, maybe you will know it from Eagle Claw Fort tonight.
"The Haixi people don't have much food, so let's find another way, but those guards are dead, can they come back to life? I'm not afraid of dying in battle, I'm afraid of being blocked in a nest," Xiao Ye glanced at Xin Rulin, who was silent, and his tone softened.
"Nothing else matters, the most important thing for us is the lives of our brothers, this must be remembered, without people, there is no hope," this sentence not only made the corners of the eyes of the three centurions red, but even Xin Rulin had a straight face and nodded secretly.
"The three of you, you will be fined food and salary for half a year, and the official will not want it, so he will give the family members of those guards, and the pensions of those cavalrymen will be paid according to the family guards,"
"There is a difference in rewards and punishments, this trip to Haixi Village will be traded, and the three of you will be rewarded with three thousand taels of silver tickets, and the guards and cavalry below, you will look at them, and the official will not interfere," After speaking, Xiao Ye picked up three silver tickets from the stone table and stepped forward to hand them to Qin Shishi.
"My own brothers, those are companions who have to face the enemy together, and we must not chill their hearts," patting Qin Shishi on the shoulder, Xiao Ye waved his hand to let them leave, "Go to Eagle Claw Fort, take care of Huang Hanxiang closely, he will not lead the troops for too long in the future." ”
"Subordinates take orders, Lord Xie Baihu," Qin Shishi, Miao Buwu, and Ah Man, who didn't dare to step forward later, knelt down to give a salute, and then retreated wet.
The three men left, Xiao Ye rubbed his face and sat back on the stone bench, his expression relaxed, "Let the three provincial brothers smile,"
Shaking the paper fan in his hand, Xin Rulin opened his mouth and said with a smile, "Congratulations to the hundred households, you can gain a foothold on the grassland,"
"Why?" Xiao Ye asked puzzledly, "I just dealt with them according to military regulations, I didn't beat them with military sticks, but I recorded it in the account, and when the Tartars moved south in winter, I still have to find them back,"
"Hehe, a bowl of water is even, not slack because of closeness, not strict because of estrangement, hundreds of households can treat their subordinates well, generous pensions, even if it is hundreds of family guards, more than self-preservation," from the small basket on the stone table, Xin Rulin smiled and picked up a jujube, put it in his mouth and chewed.
What Xiao Ye lacked was not only food, but also whether it was a sergeant or a guard, it was one less than one, and he didn't want to see that the Tartars accounted for most of the guards.
Therefore, no matter how short-sighted the generals who cherish the soldiers, they will not make too many mistakes, and the foothold in Xin Rulin's mouth is what it means; What's more, Xiao Ye led the troops to perform constantly every day, but Xin Rulin saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart.
If you are not of my race, your heart will be different, although Xin Rulin has not been talking about this sentence all day long, but since he is Xiao Ye's staff, he has to worry about this matter.
For the upcoming Tartars, they both have a spectrum in their hearts, and if they cross this hurdle this time, they will really gain a foothold on the grassland.
At this time, a personal guard knife came in, "Lord Baihu, Wang Xiucai sent a herald over, saying that the Tian family caravan has arrived, and Da Liu has come in at the checkpoint, and there are three ladies in the caravan,"
The guard's words made Xiao Ye stunned for a moment, and then his expression was happy, and Xin Rulin, who was very eye-catching, put down the teacup, "Brother Hexi Shidao, I think it's better to go back to my house, let's talk again tomorrow,"
"That's, that's, come on, escort Mr. Xin back," Xiao Ye hurriedly got up and patted the clothes and pants on his body, the color of this summer uniform is still earthy yellow, but it is light and sweat-absorbing, and it is quite comfortable to wear in summer.
A few people hurriedly walked out of the courtyard gate with knives, Xiao Ye walked quickly to the gate of the fort, and ordered a personal guard, "Go, go to the side of the hidden castle on the top of the mountain, call Zuo Shi, and ask him to make amends to Xiuxiu's sister-in-law,"
After speaking, Xiao Ye pulled the war horse, stepped on the stirrup with his military boots, turned over and got on the horse, "Let's go, go and meet the third lady,"
Xiao Ye, who personally took the Tian family caravan to the stone fort and escorted the carriage, came to the gate of the fort, and by the light of the torches, he saw Zuo Shi standing at the foot of the steps of the fort gate from a distance.
Zuoshi, who was shirtless, didn't know which guy came up with the idea, and a few thorns were tied to his slightly strong back, waiting there with his head drooping.
There were two dead wind lamps on the fort wall, and the guards on duty gave way left and right, and Zuo Shi, who was dejected, saw the caravan coming, and his face became even more depressed.
Two months ago, he hurriedly walked out of Lao Yangkou's hundred households, and he remembered Xin Xiucai's words in his mind, but he directly forgot about Tian Xiuxiu in the backyard, he had been trained by his eldest brother several times.
Xiao Ye didn't want a fire in his backyard, so he could only let his younger brother apologize like this, of course, Zuo Shi's head injury may be the reason why he sometimes doesn't do things well.
Tian Fangjun and Xiao Ye rode side by side, and also saw the scene of the fort gate, as if they thought of something, their faces were better in the dark, and they lifted the reins of the horse and followed Xiao Ye to the side of the road.
The caravan soon stopped in the open space outside the fort gate, and a canopy carriage, accompanied by knives, and the sound of mules and horses' hooves, slowly drove out of the procession and came to the left stone not far away.
When Xiao Ju helped Tian Xiuxiu get out of the carriage, the embroidered shoes under her feet just stepped on the gravel ground, Zuo Shi glanced at the figure of the eldest brother, gritted his teeth and ran forward, and came to the sister-in-law, "Third sister-in-law, little brother, I am confused, I have made amends to you,"
After speaking, Zuo Shi knelt on the ground with both knees, his waist straight, "If you don't feel angry, sister-in-law, just whip me a few times,"
His actions not only made Tian Xiuxiu stunned, but also Xiao Ye in the back, who was also made to cry and laugh, this stunned boy, as for this.
"Oh, you stupid boy, you're not afraid of hurting your legs from stones on the ground, hurry up," Tian Xiuxiu, who shook her head, hurriedly stepped forward with a flushed face, but it was not easy to reach out, so she could only let Xiaoju help Zuo Shi.
"Get up, how can the family see outside," Tian Xiuxiu's eyes were a little bit of loss, after seeing Xiao Ye, most of them had dispersed, and now when they saw Zuo Shi apologize like this, they suddenly disappeared without a trace.
If you want to say that she returned to the courtyard of the Tian family in Gansu Town, there is no mustard in her heart, it is fake, Zuo Shi can take away those account books and finances in the front yard, and she doesn't know how many steps to the backyard, so that she will not be directly blocked in the house by Jinyiwei.
Zuo Shi's head injury, she heard Xiao Ye mention it, but the woman's mind is nine turns, and it has nothing to do with open-mindedness.
Zuo Shi knelt down in front of him, which made Tian Xiuxiu's fair face a little more flushed, and this time it was left in the mouth of the old sheep, it should be a bad thing to become a good thing.
The family knows their news, and their position in Xiao Ye's heart can also be seen, so the child in the belly will not have to worry about it in the future.
It's not easy for everyone to gossip about the affairs of the hundred households, but Xiao Ye can let his younger brother give a big gift to the third sister-in-law, which is enough to prove the status of the third lady in the hearts of the hundred households.
Tian Xiuxiu returned to the Baihu Office, and Mei Er and Lena happily welcomed in, the caravan brought by Tian Fangjun, and Wang Dali and Wang Qing counted the quantity of goods overnight and assessed the price.
In the front hall of the Hundred Households, after Xiao Ye entertained Tian Fangjun for dinner, the two drank warm tea and started business.
For the white flute paper that the Tian family needs, Xiao Ye is as good as before, a large supply, not a penny, and now the two parties know that since they have become in-laws, even if there is no kind of Ming Media is marrying, but the child in Tian Xiuxiu's belly has made Xiao Ye's mouth can't close.
The white flute paper given for free, the Tian family was very satisfied with Xiao Ye as a gift.
"Xiao boy, look at those Persian goods, should I give me a discount, I have a good face this time and sent Xiuxiu back," In business, Tian Fangjun didn't know that now was a good time to bargain.
"Hehe, Uncle Seven, I'll just call it that, okay?" Xiao Ye squinted his eyes and took a sip of tea, but did not say anything, but pulled it up almost; He is now very sober, he is weak and Tartar is working against him, and there is Zhang Zhong staring at him, even those people such as the Huang family and the Wang family are not good masters, and they really need a force that can help.
Even if the Tian family is impartial, it is good news.
"Oh, of course, Xiuxiu grew up watching her, if you treat her badly, I will be the first to come to the door to find an explanation," Tian Fangjun, as Tian Xiuxiu's distant uncle, ranked seventh, nodded unequivocally, and sat firmly in the chair.
"Those goods are easy to say, don't be in a hurry now," Xiao Ye was in a good mood, and took out three small iron boxes from under the table, "It's hot in summer, especially in the northwest border town, how about I ask you to drink some ice water first?" ”
This is a good thing taken from the cave this morning, Xiao Ye hasn't come to check it urgently, this Tian Fangjun is here, everyone will open their eyes first.
"Knives, come in with buckets of water," he shouted, and the knives guarding outside promised to run to the room.
Carrying a knife full of barrels, he quickly entered the antechamber and laid the barrel down on the stucco floor without changing his face; The wooden barrel filled with water, when you look at it, is more than 50 catties.
The two bright wind lamps in the front hall illuminated the room very brightly, Xiao Ye took out a small bottle from the iron box and walked to the barrel.
Ice condensate is a new military item in the processing center, Xiao Ye doesn't know why this thing is in the military, but it is definitely a hot item in the summer.
"Probably some of the millers were lazy and used the limestone," Xiao Ye muttered to himself, pulling the cork from the vial and pouring the white powder into the barrel.
The raw materials needed for the ice condensation agent, Xiao Ye was disgusted when he said it, this kind of military product that happened to come out, he now seems to be just a thing to relieve the heat.
Without stirring, after a few breaths, I saw that the clear and clean water made a slight clicking sound, and it quickly condensed into a large ice cube at a speed visible to the naked eye; This scene not only made Xiao Ye's eyes widen, but the onlookers also opened their mouths wide in shock.
"This, this, this is ice," the knife blinked vigorously at the cold barrel to make sure he wasn't dazzled, and stammered at the ice.
In summer, it is a luxury item for large families, and the ice cubes stored in the cellar are worthless in winter, but in summer, they become rare and valuable goods, and even Tian Fangjun returned to the Taiyuan family in summer to eat a little.
Like a knife, Tian Fangjun wiped his eyes fiercely, and then looked at the barrel, the consternation in his eyes had turned into heat, yes, he resolutely couldn't let go of the business opportunities that were about to come.
Pulling out the hunting knife on his waist, Xiao Ye clicked and inserted a few times on the ice, and the splashed ice chips flew on his face, and it was very good to be cold.
Pry off a few pieces of ice, Xiao Ye took it in his hand and looked at it, put it in his mouth and chewed, "Come, taste it all, the weather is very hot, or this thing tastes refreshing,"
When the cold ice cube was in his mouth, Tian Fangjun had already made up his mind, what kind of ice condensation agent, he must hold it in his hand, not to mention Taiyuan Mansion, just add an ice product to the restaurant in Gansu Town, which can make his business extremely hot.
The knife puffed out his cheeks, chewed on the ice, and said vaguely, "It would be better if I added some sugar,"
The speaker had no intention, but Tian Fangjun's face was suddenly full of excitement, and he was already boiling in his heart, and he quickly calculated in his mind that adding sugar or fruit would not be another business.
"Yes, it tastes better with sugar," Xiao Ye praised with a smile, turned around and walked to the table, and opened the other two iron boxes, revealing that they were full of white powder.
"Come, Uncle Seven, don't eat it, you will have diarrhea if you eat too much ice," as he spoke, as soon as Xiao Ye turned around, he almost came face to face with Tian Fangjun, bluffing him into taking two steps diagonally; This old guy is very athletic, I didn't see it before.
"This is, coagulant, ice condensator?" Tian Fangjun, whose face was flushed, ignored Xiao Ye's expression at all, and pointed to the powder in the iron box and asked, his eyes blazing.
"Ahem, no, it's salt, why don't you let the knife taste it first?" Xiao Ye shook his head, before he finished his words, Tian Fangjun's fingers had already poked in the box.
Dipping some powder, Tian Fangjun put his fingers in front of him, this white refined salt that was as fine as sand grains, he had never seen it in his life; After looking at it a few times, he carefully put his fingers into his mouth, and Tian Fangjun's eyes suddenly bulged out.
"Brother Xiao, oh no, Ximen Baihu, this salt, our Tian family wants it, Xiuxiu is your person, you look at the price, we will buy as much as we want," Tian Fangjun, who was quick-witted, although he couldn't wait to pounce on Xiao Ye, he still calmly said his backer.
That's right, now things are a bit reversed, Tian Xiuxiu has become his backer in negotiations, which makes Tian Fangjun very happy, thanks to his insistence this time and send Xiuxiu back, otherwise, the meat in his mouth will definitely fly.
This kind of pure white refined salt, when it is taken to Gansu Town, even if the price quadruples or even triples, it will also be robbed, and rich people have it everywhere, just see if there is anything good to sell.
As for the salt introduction, there are shops under the Tian family, who can't exchange the tanuki for the prince and the small bucket for the big bucket.
Exclusive business, Xiao Ye sat back at the table with a heavy mind, "Knife, bring the bucket to the backyard, let Xiuxiu and them soak in ice water to relieve fatigue,"
"Got it," replied the knife urn angrily, chewing the ice and carrying the bucket out; Such a big bucket of ice, the ladies of the hundred households can't eat it, and they will definitely let Luan Fengying and them taste it.
Like Qin Shi and Wang Hu, the eyes of the knife are now also eyeing those female guards, as long as everyone competes fairly.
The front hall was quiet, and his fingers tapped lightly on the iron box, Xiao Ye glanced at Tian Fangjun, who was fidgeting in his left hand, and after thinking about it for a long time, he opened his mouth.
"Ice condensator, a bottle of ten catties of grain, refined salt, just exchange it for green salt, well salt is fine,"
"Five catties of coarse salt for one catty of refined salt,"
This time, the Tian family caravan not only brought grain, minerals, but also the wood that Wang Dali needed, and the construction of those military houses, the yellow plaster was in short supply, and it was impossible to build the roof.
Hearing Xiao Ye's refreshing price, the stone in Tian Fangjun's heart fell to the ground, and he knew that it was Tian Xiuxiu who played a role in it; Otherwise, Xiao Yelion opened his mouth widely, and he couldn't do anything about asking for a price while sitting on the ground, and he didn't even have the confidence to make a counteroffer.
If Xiao Ye took it out and sold it publicly, I'm afraid it wouldn't be at this price.
Sure enough, Xiao Ye's next words made Tian Fangjun feel that he had not suffered in vain this time.
"These two kinds of goods will also be taken out and sold to other merchants, a bottle of ice condensant is exchanged for twenty catties of grain, and refined salt is exchanged for ten catties of coarse salt, "Love to buy or not, anyway, the military households and artisan households under his command also need it, Xiao Ye doesn't care how much it can be sold."
The five-fold price is enough for the Tian family to receive their friendship, if they are not satisfied, Xiao Ye can only treat them equally.
"Okay, our Tian family has answered," Xiao Ye was refreshing, and Tian Fangjun didn't want to be ambiguous, so he accepted the asking price of this niece and son-in-law in one bite.
The deal was negotiated, both parties were happy, Tian Fang Jun saw that it was late, and was about to leave, "That seventh uncle, I still have something to do,"
Look at it, you know that this kid is not easy to fool, he is really a little slippery head, he said in his heart, Tian Fangjun smiled and waved his hand, "It's all my own family, if you have something to say, Uncle Seven can help, and he will definitely help,"
The meaning of the words Xiao Ye understands that he will not embarrass this cheap seventh uncle.
"That Shiguantun is where I built a tun for the first time, and it is a little difficult to give up, especially the side hall in the land temple, as well as the spirit cards of some of my brothers, I don't want to be moved by others,"
"The spirit tablets and cemeteries there, even if I don't have a chance to go, I will send people to pay homage to incense during the Qingming Festival and the New Year,"
"Now there are hundreds of households Hu Shibiao, and the chief flag Zhang Zichang, they are guarding there, I'm not worried, but if someone else changes, it's hard to say," As he spoke, Xiao Ye suddenly had an idea, and it seemed that it was a good idea not to move those spiritual positions.
"Hehe, I thought it was something, it turned out to be this," Tian Fangjun smiled when he heard this, and his brows stretched a lot.
"The stone mill in the mill in Shiguantun, Zhang Jianjun has sent someone to pull it to the Houshan workshop, that is, the stone mill in Lao Yangkou, and it has also been transferred to the hilly workshop,"
"He's not worried about you, pull us together, in fact, it's good, so that those craftsmen won't be frightened,"
"Shiguantun, if it weren't for the Shangfeng military order, the gravel fort would almost be abandoned, who would want to go there to guard it," Speaking of this, Tian Fangjun shook his head slightly, he was not optimistic that it was Guantun.
"Before leaving, those Zhang Jiawei took away the three water umbrellas in Shiguantun, and now drinking water there has become a problem, and the food is also transported by the gravel fort, and sooner or later it will be deserted,"
"When I go back, I'll tell Tian Guanglin to take care of Shiguantun a little, no one wants to go there," these words made Xiao Ye feel uncomfortable.
I want to go to Shiguantun by myself, after more than a year of hardship, I finally made it lively, and I also like to take advantage of the quiet and cool of dawn to practice knives in the courtyard, and now it is less than a year, and it is going to be deserted, saying that it is a pity, Xiao Ye himself does not believe it.
"However, it is inevitable to place troops there," Tian Fangjun lowered his voice, "First, we have to prevent the Tartars from entering without telling you, and secondly, we have to beware of you, the hundred households of the Aishan Thorn Tribe, you stunned young man, it is very aggrieved for Lord Zhang,"
Xiao Ye's ridicule of Tian Fangjun was just a smile, but he was also relieved, Shi Guantun was not targeted, he was already lucky.
"Seventh uncle, in the future, you will walk in Gansu Town and here, and ask more about some news, my nephew will keep good things for you here," the meaning of Xiao Ye's words, Tian Fangjun naturally understood, and he did not want to have other deviations from the sellers who were related to his business.
Business, pay attention to whether it is a stable supply of goods, unless he finds a source of goods from the Persians in the future, before that, he is also happy to be safe and stable.
After deciding on the deal for the next transaction, Tian Fangjun went back to the military house to rest, and Xiao Ye hurriedly returned to the backyard, that night, he would definitely stay in Xiuxiu's room.
