Su Hao didn't know how Xiao Ruxun and his wife arranged themselves behind their backs, he didn't have any distractions in his heart, he just acted according to the arrangements of the military department and the hints of Chen Dao, Jiang Tingfu and others.

After being stationed in Pingyu City, Su Hao divided the survey camp into dozens of roads and went to various places in Ningxia Town to start surveying and mapping operations. The soldiers of the survey battalion are trained according to the dual tasks of surveying and mapping and combat, and each soldier can master a certain aspect of surveying and mapping business and also have combat capability. Before leaving, Deng Kui and Xu Guangzu secretly instructed the leaders of each group to keep a low profile, not to attract the attention of the Bibai army, and to be vigilant and ready to deal with possible incidents at any time.

Su Hao himself also went out with the surveying and mapping team for a turn, and had a general understanding of the geographical environment around Ningxia Town, and then returned to Pingyu City. As the commander of the troops, it is impossible for him to leave for a long time, and if something happens, the people below cannot find him, and it will be troublesome.

Su Hao is a traveler, but he doesn't know if Bibai really rebelled in history, let alone remember the time of Bibai's rebellion. What he can do is to strengthen his guard in a loose and covert manner on the one hand, and on the other hand, to spread out his intelligence network in the hope of being able to obtain early warning information before an incident occurs.

The old Taoist Chen Guanyu has now become the full-time spy supervisor of the public opinion camp, and Su Hao took a fancy to his ability to fool, so he let him recruit a group of people from the rivers and lakes, who wandered outside the public opinion camp and specialized in various intelligence collection work. During Runing's case, Chen Guanyu and his subordinates learned a lot of secret information that could not be grasped through formal channels, which helped Su Hao a lot. This time he went to Ningxia, and Su Hao naturally did not forget to play his role.

Long before the survey camp arrived in Ningxia Town, Chen Guanyu had already infiltrated Ningxia City as a Taoist priest of Youfang, and with his clever tongue, he quickly became a well-known figure, often going in and out of the homes of eunuchs and military generals, helping people to survey feng shui and break auspiciousness. Through this channel. Chen Guanyu had a lot of information about Ningxia City and the surrounding forts, and sent it to Pingyu City in secret for Su Hao and others to make decisions.

According to the reports of Chen Guanyu and other secret agents under him, the conflict between Bibai and Dang Xin, the governor of Ningxia, is intensifying, but Bibai does not seem to have any intention of starting an incident immediately. In addition to the officers and soldiers of Ningxia Wei, Bibai's subordinates also had privately raised armed "Cangtou Army". Chen Guanyu accepted several lower-level officers of the Cangtou Army as his registered disciples, and judging from the situation reported by these people, the daily training and other arrangements of the Cangtou Army were not abnormal, which reflected that Bibai had not yet begun to mobilize for the rebellion.

Sometimes, Su Hao is also suspicious. Whether Jiang Tingfu and the military department's worries are just groundless speculation. He was born as a Tatar, and it was inevitable that the military would distrust him, which led to his every move being interpreted as a sign of misconduct. In fact, there are discords between the military and the administration in various places, and not all contradictions lead to mutiny.

The surveying and mapping work of the battalion was carried out in an orderly manner, and the surveying and mapping data were constantly sent from the scene, and the female embroiderers led by Yuan Yamei continued to embroider contour maps on white silk based on these surveying and mapping data. So far, Su Hao has not found an ink that can effectively prevent dispersion, so this practice of embroidering pictures on white silk can only continue. Most of these embroidery girls brought out from Fengcheng and Huai'an became relatives with the officers in the Kanyu camp. It can be regarded as a solution to the worries.

The days passed by uneventfully, and life in the city was very monotonous and poor. The military households of the Thousand Households lived on the tuntian fields and had no additional income, so the commerce of Pingyu City could not develop. There is only one decent restaurant in the city. Mainly for the officers in the city. Su Hao took his staff to go there a few times, and each time he met some familiar faces. The dishes in the northwest are not in line with the tastes of southerners such as Su Hao and Cheng Yi, and there is only one such one, and there is no semicolon. After eating a few times, everyone felt tired of it, so they just went to the market every day to buy vegetables and came back to cook their own food.

"Look. There are fresh leeks, let's buy some and go back to make dumplings to eat, right? ”

On this day, Su Hao and Li Zhen were accompanying Cheng Yi and Ge Ling to buy vegetables on the street, and Ge Ling saw a small stall with verdant leeks and couldn't help shouting happily.

Cheng Yi knew that Su Hao also liked to eat dumplings stuffed with leeks, so he stepped forward to ask the vegetable vendor for a price, and the hawker opened his mouth and startled Cheng Yi: "What, it costs 300 wen per catty!" ”

"Why don't you go and grab the money!" Ge Ling was also annoyed, in the south, a pound of leeks is more than a dozen dollars, but here it has risen 20 times, how is it different from robbing money? Ge Ling is the eldest lady in Nanjing City, and even the officers and soldiers dare to rob her, how can she suffer such a loss.

The hawker sneered: "300 Wen is still too expensive? I also told you, this is the last stubble, after selling this stubble, you don't want to buy a tael of leeks in Pingyu City for 3 taels of silver. ”

"Your leeks are raised with gold!" The singer is unforgiving.

Li Zhen was well-informed, and said to Geling: "Geling, the land here is arid, the climate is cold, and the price of vegetables cannot be compared with the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River. Since this benevolent brother said 300 wen a catty, we are too expensive, so why not eat it, why argue with others? ”

"It's too expensive!" Ge Ling also knew that what Li Zhen said was reasonable, she and Cheng Yi were shopping for vegetables in the city on weekdays, and they had already seen the price of vegetables here, but the 300 leeks per pound were beyond her imagination. She looked at the leek, swallowed her saliva, and said, "It's so expensive, don't buy it, you can keep it for yourself!" ”

A few people turned around and were about to leave, just as a local person also stepped forward to inquire about the price of leeks, and the vendor opened his mouth and quoted a price of 150 wen a catty, Su Hao and the others heard it very well.

"I said, how much is your leek a pound?" Ge Ling had already taken two steps, but now she rushed back with a glare, and shouted angrily at the peddler.

The peddler said calmly: "Selling the villagers, 150 Wen; Sold to you, etc., 300 wen. ”

"Why!" The singer asked, "Are you justified in bullying strangers?" ”

Su Hao and Li Zhen glanced at each other, and also felt that this vendor was a little excessive. It's not strange to bully outsiders, but it's unacceptable to blatantly say this point and look calm. Su Hao hugged his fist at the vendor and said, "This big brother, I don't understand a little, why do you sell this leek to us foreigners, and the price will be doubled?" ”

The peddler said: "Pingyu City is such a big place, and there are not many products. These days, the price of everything in and out of the city has risen, isn't it thanks to you strangers? My leeks are not sold more expensive, what do I use to buy oil, salt, sauce and vinegar? ”

It's called disturbing the people...... Su Hao was a little ashamed in his heart. As a forward fortress, Pingyu City has enough grain hoarded in the official warehouse, and the survey camp spends money to buy grain, which will not cause fluctuations in grain prices. However, non-staple foods such as vegetables, beef and mutton, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar can only be supplied locally, and more than 2,000 people have used them out of thin air, and the prices of these commodities have naturally risen. The lives of the locals have been affected, and it is normal for them to have opinions about them.

"This eldest brother, I waited until this Pingyu City, and I also came on an errand at the behest of the imperial court, although the prices of various things have risen because of us, but a vegetable vendor like you, didn't you also make more money? Why do you blame us? Su Hao asked.

The peddler pointed at Cheng Yi and Ge Ling, and said to Su Hao: "The little one doesn't know what kind of general you are, but there are many generals who come and go in this Pingyu City." You said that you came to run an errand, so what's the matter with this beautiful wife and concubine? ”

"Who is the wife and concubine, be careful when you speak!" Ge Ling loudly reprimanded that she stayed in the Kanyu camp to take care of Li Zhen, and was said to be a wife and concubine for no reason, which made her face very unbearable.

Cheng Yi's identity is even more embarrassing, she is a staff officer in the survey camp, but because Su Hao can't bear to let her live with the female soldiers, she has been living in Su Hao's mansion since Runing. What she is most afraid of is that others will say irresponsible things about this matter, not to mention that since when, she has a trace of inexplicable feelings for Su Hao in her heart, so she dare not listen to this kind of speculation. The peddler, she and Ge Ling were Su Hao's beautiful wife and concubine, which made her face red to her neck all of a sudden.

"This big brother, you can eat indiscriminately, and you can't talk nonsense. These two women are both sergeants in my camp, and they are both girls who have not yet left the cabinet, so you must not ruin people's reputation like this. Su Hao sank his face and said to the vendor.

The peddler didn't know what medicine he had taken wrong, and when he heard Su Hao say this, instead of stopping, he sneered: "These two are the sergeants in the battalion? Presumably a sergeant in the adult's red tent, right? If it weren't for the villain's words, why would this woman blush? ”

"You ......" Cheng Yi was embarrassed and angry, glaring angrily at the vendor.

"You dare to say that you don't have any affair with this adult?" The peddler came to his senses and said with a stiff neck.

Su Hao's eyes widened and shouted, "Shut up!" If you talk nonsense again, don't blame me for being unkind! ”

"Yo drink, in this Pingyu City, why do you dare to hit people?" The peddler pointed to his face, "There is a kind of you hitting this, and I will ...... in the blink of an eye"

"Smack!"

Before the hawker's voice fell, Su Hao really did it. The words that the hawker said to Cheng Yi were already a naked insult, and Su Hao had already held his breath. Now seeing that the hawker is actually fearless and openly shouting, Su Hao will be slapped in the face by the hawker if he doesn't do it. He remembered that Xiao Ruxun had threatened him when he first arrived in Pingyu City, and now he didn't even take a vegetable vendor seriously. If he doesn't say something, won't the border army of Pingyu City ride on him and the head of the survey battalion in the future?

With Xiao Ruxun's previous attitude there, Su Hao knew that if he personally started fighting on the street, the trouble he caused would definitely not be small. But Su Hao was determined to try Xiao Ruxun's reaction, there are some things that must be taken when it should be done, otherwise he will be looked down upon forever. (To be continued......)
