The war must start outside the gates, and the war will not be completed in a year or two. This is only the first conscription, and it will be done by giving twenty taels. If you have killed people in battle, you will definitely have to increase the number of soldiers, and you will definitely have to recruit soldiers again, and when the time comes, you will not be able to spend twenty taels of silver. Jiro also said the news. That's why Banzi and Zhang Orion will go to this year's conscription, and they don't dare to save money anymore.

There is nothing to slow down in the matter of collecting mountain goods. Now in the whole hometown, only their family has made a big one, and the old hunter has recognized them. A little longer, the mountain goods are also left for them. The losses will not be too great.

After all, no one knows how much silver it will cost to be recruited again in a few years. It's always good to save a little now.

Now that the situation is unknown, it is better to come out and hide. Just in case, Erlang also went to Eighteen Miles to pay attention to the foundation approved by Gui Niang and built a bluestone paved tile house. There are only three and a half rooms. Two sleeping bedrooms, a hall, and half a kitchen. It's not too luxurious, but it's one of the best houses in Eighteen Mile Shop.

There was some simple furniture and a little bit of food in it, enough to feed four or five people for three months.

I can't go back to my hometown. It will not be possible to go back for at least a year or two.

Erlang and Lan Niang worked together to clean up the shop, and went to order the shelves again, just waiting for the good day to open the door.

The neighbors around are not very familiar, only know that there is a grandmother on the left. I heard that an old lady with a very good background, a powerful prince and nobleman's family retired to support the elderly. endured a godson, and now he is a showman, and went to the yamen to find a place in the main book through his connections.

The neighbor on the right is only one old and one young. After inquiring about the news, this little young master is an outer room. My aunt is gone, and my father hasn't been here a few times, so an old housekeeper is left. They live in the backyard, and the shop in front of them is rented out as a restaurant. Usually there are people who drink alcohol in the middle of the night. It's not so peaceful. Fortunately, there are more officials who live here, and no evil has happened.

The owner of the restaurant smiled at everyone, even if he was on credit, he didn't change his face. After closing the door, he also lived in the backyard. The proprietress doesn't come out very much, and she looks pretty well.

It was not difficult for Erlang to inquire about these news, so he sat in the teahouse opposite the door for a while and inquired about it. didn't give a penny, Xiao Eryi heard that Erlang bought the house here, and said it all in one breath.

Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Even if it's not good, you have to say hello.

Erlang and Lan Niang bought some snacks and came to the door, which was regarded as a meeting with the neighbors. Master He was a little cold, took the snack and closed the door. Steward Luo of Young Master Luo's house next door smiled and returned a gift and gave some common dishes in this season.

None of this is too important. Anyway, their family is not really rooted here, they can get along with each other, and if they can't get along, they don't care.

Six days later, after Erlang and Lan Niang put the goods on the stall, they found Master He to be the master, and introduced a young man named He Dechang, who was about 20 years old and diligent and good at settling accounts, to come to see the shop. There are one and a half dollars a month, and there are also boxing gifts and so on.

He Dechang was very diligent, cleaned the shop inside and out, and deliberately used paper to write down the price and quantity of white fungus and other goods, and went home to recite it after handing it over. Wait for the door to open and come to work.
